...always seen himself as a split-personality sprinter. There's 200 Michael, who puts a hoop in his ear, turns the hip-hop up and gets into trash-talk wars with the very willing Greene. Then there's 400 Michael, who listens to jazz before a race and spends evenings answering e-mail from fans. With Mr. Hyde now sidelined, mellow Dr. Jekyll will have extra time in Sydney at his keyboard...

...Bush did a smart thing earlier this week in nixing the cheap-shot ad of Gore defending Clinton's veracity - the featured clip was from the pre-Monica days, and concerned Ollie North - and what the New York Times gleefully called a "split over strategy" could just have been a candidate reining in his bulldogs.

One group chose former G.O.P. candidate Pat Buchanan, while a smaller group gave its nod to John Hagelin, physicist and transcendental-meditation advocate.

...history's most infamous act of automotive congress, ELIZABETH HURLEY stayed resolutely silent. So it seems a bit odd that Hurley, 35, would open the floodgates now, telling Jane magazine that sex with ex-boyfriend Grant was "less than adequate," and that "we haven't had sex since we split up.
