jay-z : blueprint 3
Jay-Z's The Blueprint came out on September 11, 2001, which is weird to think about. And now Jay-Z's The Blueprint 3 is in line for an eerily symmetrical date: the album is coming out September 11, 2009, reports Billboard. The album will be released on Jay-Z's own Roc Nation imprint, with distribution by Atlantic. As if there wasn't enough cosmic pressure on this album to deliver already. This record can't just be "better than The Blueprint 2." It has to be "almost as good as The Blueprint." A tall order. (pitchfork)

Citing financial concerns, the developer of the long-delayed Atlantic Yards project in Brooklyn has scrapped plans for a Frank Gehry-designed $1 billion glass-walled basketball arena for the Nets in favor of a less expensive arena.The new design, which will cost about $200 million less, comes from Ellerbe Becket, an architectural firm based in Kansas City, Mo., that specializes in convention centers, stadiums and arenas and designed Conseco Fieldhouse in Indianapolis, where the Indiana Pacers play. Officials who have seen the design say that while it resembles Conseco Fieldhouse it also bears a likeness to an “airplane hangar.” (nytimes)

“We do not hang out,” emphasized Jill Zarin.
The odd woman out was newcomer Kelly Bensimon. “I haven’t met them, but I’d love to!” she told us. “I wish they would do a crossover because I love these other women so much, and I’d much rather hang out with them.”
typical.
commenting on the upcoming D.C. season, Cuntess LuAnn voiced this absurd idea:
“I think Mrs. Obama should make an appearance,” she said. “She is the epitome of class, and I think even on a show like ‘The Housewives of Washington,’ she could pull it off."
