...just us, or does the Today show's MATT LAUER look alarmingly at ease with a bare-midriff, miniskirt and pumps? For the morning program's annual Halloween costume contest last week, Lauer got gussied up as socialite Paris Hilton, while co-anchor KATIE COURIC made for a Mini-Me DONALD TRUMP, and weatherman AL ROKER channeled a pre-diet Oprah Winfrey. Supposedly on some other networks people in blazers and pearls actually read news and interviewed guests. But frankly, we were too mesmerized by Lauer's shapely calves to notice...

Grand Ayatullah Ali Husaini Sistani, the revered leader of the nation's 15 million Shi'ites, receives visitors, powerful and meek alike, in a plain, bare room in his modest home down a dusty alley in the holy city of Najaf. He sits on the floor with his back to the wall, dressed always in the same simple robe and turban. (An intimate says he hasn't refreshed his wardrobe in 10 years.) He is modest...
