...Luzhkov, Moscow's mayor and the chief (if undeclared) aspirant to Yeltsin's throne, has long been the Kremlin's top rival. In early August, when Luzhkov's party allied with a bloc of Russia's muscular regional leaders (once loyal Yeltsin vassals), Yeltsin was infuriated. The alliance laid bare how fast and far power was draining from the Kremlin. Luzhkov's courtship of Yevgeni Primakov, the former Prime Minister sacked in May, to lead his party in the Duma campaign further caused Yeltsin to fulminate.

"I'm just trying to get a sneak peek in so I can see my best friend," she says of Mychelle. "I just saw them take a bag out. It was a big bag. It must have been the mother...
...moniker; the clothes, she took off herself. Last week Rena Mero, the wrestler who can no longer be called SABLE, settled her $110 million lawsuit against the WWF. The blond battle-ax and mother of one had sued the league over her claims that it demanded she bare her breasts and participate in lesbian story lines. Though neither party will divulge the financial details, Mero has agreed to relinquish rights to the name Sable and for the next three years stay out of the ring, where she seems to have few issues with exposure. This week Mero appears...
