...have black rappers, white rappers and--sacre bleu--French rappers too. It's not surprising then that the Teutons have finally caught on. In Austria, David Duke-ish politico JORG HAIDER, left, has cut a rap track called Carinthia Has One Heart, a break-beatin' homage to the beauty of the Austrian region and to his erstwhile constituency in the Far Right Freedom Party, which, for those of you who read only the People page, is not a lighthearted group. Haider's rhymes about Austrian natural beauty will be compiled on an album later this year, with proceeds going...

...then last week he beat a perfect Bond villain: the monstrously huge, opera-loving, poetry-writing, polylingual politician and F.O.P. (friend of Putin). Still, without the politico-global resonance, the Miracle on the Mat will never get the attention of the U.S. hockey squad's 1980 victory over the U.S.S.R. "I hate to bring politics into wrestling. It's two great wrestlers from two good countries," said Gardner right after the match. "Karelin is a world-class individual. I told him, 'You're still the best.

There was an obese, half-naked Long Beach resident named "Ski" Demski, who entered the convention hall with his massive belly depicting tattoos of an American eagle while his back was adorned with a large flag. There was another fellow...

"She doesn't so much evolve as have incarnations," says an old colleague. And the incarnations are invariably suited to the politico-sociological moment. She has an unerring sense for the next big thing. In the early 1970s, she wrote one of the first anti-feminist manifestos--The Female Woman, a counterpoint to Germaine Greer's The Female Eunuch--anticipating the backlash against feminism before there was a hint of it. Her next...

Bill Richardson was ready for his close-up. Until he was beset by the double woes of Wen Ho Lee and rising gas prices, the energy secretary was a political and media darling. He was the consummate politico, working the press to his advantage and apparently headed on a one-way trip to the top of the Democratic party. That was then, of course. Thanks to a series of security lapses at the Los Alamos nuclear laboratory - capped by this week's revelation that vital hard drives are missing from the lab's inner sanctum - and his struggle to stabilize...
