Author Terry McMillan's probably won't be going after any more younger men. Her husband of six years who is 23 years her junior has filed for divorce, claiming he is gay. McMillan promptly kicked him out of their home. The husband, Jonathan Plummer, claims that he didn't know he was gay when he married McMillan and is charging her with homophobia, claiming she cheated him out of royalties, throws things at him, and calls him a fag. A judge has ordered McMillan to pay him $2,000 in spousal support and $25,000 in attorneys fees until further hearings can be held.

Why does it look so much like the Trans-America Building in San Francisco?

Well it's an improvement over the twisted rhomboid-tower they first proposed; though it fails to be "iconic" in the way the WTC was, or the Transamerica Bldg. is. As an architect, I really pisses my off how either "odd" or "pedestrian" the various schemes have been. But I am also of the professional school that really good design is produced by a commitee, no matter how well-intended.
And the lead architect should have been an American, not some carpet-bagging foreigner.

Yikes, I need contextual-spellcheck. I meant that good design CAN NOT be produced by a committee...

Maybe Tye Diggs will reprise his role in, "How Stella Lost her groove". That would be nice to see...
