MARRIED. Scott ("Cyclops") Summers, 30, whose eyes shoot powerful "optic beams"; and Jean Grey, 30, possessor of telepathic and telekinetic powers; both founding members of the X-Men, a private group of gifted mutants who battle social injustice; at the X-mansion in Salem Center, in New York's Westchester County. Grey wore a dress created by designer Nicole Miller. Although the ceremony and reception were held outdoors, the January weather , was not a problem, as maid of honor and fellow X-Man Storm used her superpowers to create a springlike day. The marriage is the first for both...
...amounted to only a brief respite from a family feud of royal proportions. Just minutes earlier, Pakistani national police had prevented her mother from making the same gesture -- by firing tear gas and bullets at the 63-year-old widow and her supporters who had gathered at the family mansion nearby. Raising a white handkerchief in a sign of peace, Nusrat Bhutto asked police to allow her supporters to tend to the wounded. Angrily, she compared her daughter to General Mohammed Zia ul-Haq, the dictator who had sent her husband to the very grave she was now barred from...
...Elvis. The King is not dead -- we know that from reading Weekly World News -- but soon he will live, and sing, on the CD-ROM Virtual Graceland.

Just don't try peeking into Elvis' medicine chest; the bathroom is not open to the public...

David Brock, the reporter who broke the story in the conservative magazine The American Spectator, is about as unbiased as Harvey Mansfield is liberal. And the women who were purportedly Clinton's mistresses at the Arkansas governor's mansion before he left for Washington are themselves denying the allegations. The media establishment went ahead and printed the troopers' stories even though they are even flimsier than the charges Clinton faced from the likes of Gennifer Flowers during the '92 campaign...
What you need to know: Siegfried and Roy, two nuts from Germany, are out of their wealthy little minds. They live in a mansion whose ceiling is painted like the Sistine Chapel, with either Siegfried or Roy (who can remember?) in place of Adam. Roy has a "meditation chamber" (the rest of us have dressing rooms) furnished with a mystic rug and cages for his tigers. They wow the crowd with heavy machinery and endangered-species eugenics. I love S&R. They march to the beat of a different drum machine...
