The influential fashion magazine GQ today announced that Iranian President for Eternity Mahmoud Ahmadinejad tops its annual list of world's best dressed men. A GQ editor said, "Rarely have we seen such a distinctive and free-spirited approach to personal style, recalling the sartorial elegance of Yasser Arafat, the Cary Grant of the Middle East."

Mr. Ahmadinejad's acclaim as a fashion icon came only days after People magazine named him "sexiest man alive."  Since then, his name has been linked with those of Jennifer Aniston, Sandra Bullock and Lady Gaga. 

In other international news, Playboy founder Hugh Hefner has said he will appear as a character witness for Sylvio Burlesconi in the Italian prime minister's April trial. "Syl is a great party guy," said the pyjama-clad publisher, "and how can you help loving someone who has burlesque in his name?" 

Meanwhile, closer to home, Canadian prime minister Stephen Harper announced that he has sent cabinet minister Bev Oda on an urgent mission to Berzerkistan.  "There's no telling," he said, "how long this assignment may take."
