...From the beginning, Lehman saw many of the relationships as twisted marriages. J.J. wants to break up Susie's betrothal to Dallas, then take her on a sibling honeymoon cruise on the Queen Mary; J.J. and Sidney are a pair of schemers almost worthy of Shakespeare, as if Richard III (J.J.) were married to Lady Macbeth (Sidney, rubbing those hands to get the stain out, or spark fire). Lehman built a formicary of dark characters with weak dependents: Sidney with his secretary, J.J. with Susan, Susan with Dallas, the columnist Leo Bartha with his nagging wife, columnist Otis Elwell with...
Designer JOHN GALLIANO, who now heads the house of Christian Dior, was recently knighted by Queen Elizabeth, but during one of the first shows of Paris fashion week, the designer's mind seemed to be everywhere but England. His clothes, which drew inspiration from Peru, Mongolia, India and Russia, were relatively tame compared with Galliano's usual antics.

Giuliani, whose post-Sept. 11 leadership has landed him a $3 million book deal, a knighthood from the Queen of England and speaking offers galore, is likely to get even more exposure. Expect his face to be a regular in paid TV spots this fall...
...their national teams, with disabled events - which include an 800-m wheelchair race, table-tennis singles and 50-m and 100-m swimming races - incorporated into the Games' main program. In addition, any medals won by disabled athletes will count toward their country's overall medal tally. Last week, Queen Elizabeth began the countdown to the Games by handing a baton containing a goodwill message to the Commonwealth to Sir Roger Bannister, the first man to run a mile in under four minutes. The baton will make a 95,000-km journey through 23 Commonwealth countries before coming back...
