Backstage at the Clyde Beatty-Cole Bros. Circus is just what you'd imagine: Bare-chested men setting up bleachers, hanging the trapeze and tightrope, stringing miles of electrical cable and hauling all manner of stage equipment into place. Outside their trailers young gymnasts wash their tights and costumes, and some clowns in civilian dress and no makeup work on the busted front axle of their tiny "clown car."

PETA's lettuce bikini clad spokesperson Traci Bingham was all over town last week pushing the animal rights group's veggie campaign, but appeared to be sliding into bad old habits when she was spotted dashing into the Burger King at 47th Street and Eighth Avenue the other night. It's OK, though - she was just getting a half-dozen veggie burgers for her and her pals to sustain them en route to the campaign launch. Burger King is apparently the first fast-food joint in America to offer a totally non-meat burger.
