Yemen Things to Do
Al-Qahera Castle
One of the most impressive sights in Ta'iz is al-Qahera Castle, also known as Cairo Castle. Perched precariously on a sharp spine of Sabr Mountain 591 feet (180 meters) above the city, it can be seen from throughout the valley in which Ta'iz is located.The castle was constructed by the Ottoman Turks during their reign. The Ottoman Turks controlled...more
Sana'a Old Town
Sana'a Old Town, or Alqadeemah in Arabic, is one of the great sights of the world. It was declared a World Heritage City in 1984 by UNESCO, and the Arab Cultural Capital in 2004. It is noted for its unique, ancient architecture which involves mud brick and elaborate friezes. Due to its importance not only to Yemen but to the world, preservation...more
Zabid and the Tihama Coastal Plains
5/10Moving south Zabid is a little inland from the Red Sea coast and a little hot. If you come here in summer you'll probably die. It is one of those towns where the historical accounts make it feel more interesting than it really is, and historically it is fascinating. It has a small, interesting citadel and a few historic buildings but not an...more
This tip refers to the Shibam in the Haraz Mountains, not the Shibam in the Hadramout. It is a small market town at the foot of Jebel Kawkaban. You will almost inevitably pass through it on your way to the much more scenic mountaintop village of Kawkaban, and it is probably where you will stop for shopping and lunch.Shibam was founded in the 2nd...more
Dar al-Hajjar
If any building is the icon of Yemen, it is Dar al-Hajjar, the seventeenth century summer palace of Imam Yahya. It is just 15km north-west of Sana'a and consequently receives thousands of visitors, especially at weekends. In fact, the number of people visiting the palace is doubling every year, from 46,000 in 2006 to more than 100,000 in 2007. This...more
This is one of my favourite places in Yemen. It is built around a huge cistern, which not only supplies the town's water, but also serves as an impromptu public swimming pool at weekends. Here you will see youths with rifles slung over their backs watching scores of children swimming with the ducks. Like Thula, Hababah is a walled town in the Haraz...more
With its dramatic setting and architecture, Al-Hajjarah is one of the most photogenic towns in the world. Inside, however, it is a confusing maze of narrow alleyways and closely-packed adobe buildings.The Ottoman Turks used Al-Hajjarah as a citadel to protect the approach road to Sana'a. The town has 5 to 8-storey tower houses and what was formerly...more
Bayt Baws
Bayt Baws is the nearest fortified, hilltop village to Sana'a. It is a pretty place and well worth a visit. When I first arrived here, I thought that someone had painted the rocky slopes around the town green, but it's actually a natural phenomenon caused by the mineral content of the rocks.If you are only in Sana'a for a short visit and want to...more
Kawkaban is a fortified which stands on top of Jebel Kawkawban, 2850 m above sea level, overlooking the town of Shibam, at the foot of the mountain. It was the 15th century capital of the Bani-Sharaf Al-Din tribe and was once famous for its school of music.It is a great centre for hiking, including the one-hour hike down the mountain to Shibam.more
Thula, sometimes also spelled Thila or Thilla, is a town, built at the foot of the 2,350 metre-high Al-Ghurab Mountain, where you can see some magnificent, traditional architecture. Thula is an ancient city, named after Thula bin Lubakha Al-Hemiari, who lived here two thousand years ago.There is a fortress on top of Al-Ghurab Mountain and a wall...more
Sanaa Suk (Souk)
Some important tips for buying in the Sanaa Suk (the most worthwhile bazaar of Yemen). The rules apply anywhere in Yemen. Shopping can be great fun in Yemen. 1. Haggling is not as common as in other tourist destinations. The prices are usually not ridiculously high "tourist prices", but more or less what you will pay. Some haggling is okay just for...more
Shibam (west)
Shibam west of Sanaa (direction Thulla/Kawkaban) should not be confused with Shibam in the Hadramaut. While the Hadrami Shibam is worthwhile seeing, the western Shibam is - as a village - nothing special. It just lies convenient towards Thulla and Kawkaban and has a good restaurant (Hameeda), run by a local women`s initiative, very popular with...more
Socotra is a beautiful, sparsely populated island off the Yemeni coast with great beaches, lots of marine life, rugged landscapes, very unusual vegetation (the mushroom-like dragonblood trees), and plenty of vultures. We only had a week there, so the highlights of our itinerary are meant just a suggestion, but you should see: - the Diksam Plateau-...more
I must admit Aden was only a stopover for half a day and we only got a superficial impression at best. What we saw was not spectacular, though. The setting against the backdrop of volcanic mountains looks great (as a friend of mine put it: "Aden is like Cape Town without the sights & without the crime"), but the socialist architecture doesn`t, few...more
"Little Ben" in Aden-Tawhila
While Aden is decidedly unspectacular, this little clock tower - ironically called "Little Ben" - was built in 1890 by the British, destroyed in the Civil Wars, and then rebuilt in 2002. It is on a hill in the Tawhila Quarter in Aden and the site also offers a great view on the harbour and the Tawhila district against the backdrop of volcanic...more
The Chicago of the Middle East
Shibam is a city in the Hadramaut region and is known as the chicago of the Middle East due to its buildings. All the buildings are made of mud bricks and some of them are 200 years old. The rise 5 to 9 stories high and was built to protect residents from Bedouin attacks. It is an amazing place to spend a couple of hours and the buildings provide...more
In Yemen weddings are one of the strangest things you will ever come across. It is the highlight of any family and visitors are welcome (if invited..dont partycrash!) The weddings in Yemen are held at seperate locations for the bride and groom. The groom's party is male only and is a lot of traditional dancing and showing of infront of the...more
Sanaa is the historic capital of Yemen with a fabulous Old Town (UNESCO world heritage monument), at an altitude of roughly 2000 m, surrounded by mountains. It is said that Sanaa dates back at least 2500 years, maybe more. Before Yemen reunification in 1990, it was capital of the North Yemen. The main attraction of Sanaa is the architecture of the...more
Distinctive Doors
Yemen has some doors to rival those of Zanzibar Old Town. They vary a little in style but not so much as the windows do. Most are made of wood, although some of the modern ones are made of metal. Many of the wooden ones are hundreds of years old, very thick and intricately carved. Sadly some are in a bad state of repair. In the highlands and the...more
Wonderful Windows
As well as the buildings in Yemen, the windows are incredibly interesting and vary in style throughout the country. They are both decorative and functional. In the rural highland villages and small towns, the windows were small for shooting out of during feuds between tribes. In Sana'a and the larger highland cities they are quite large and grand...more
Stunning Architecture
The architecture of Yemen is one of the highlights of a visit. Building styles vary from the stone tower houses of the highlands, made from huge blocks taken from the mountains, and the tower houses of the old city of Sana'a, which were built for defence, to the mud brick buildings of the hadramaut, the clay brick houses of Zabid, and the African...more
Al-Hudayda and the Tihama Coastal Plains
3/10If you've been in Yemen a while and crave a little sand and sea you might be yearning to reach Al-Hudayda, due west of Sana'a. Don't get too excited! It tries very hard to be a typical sea-side city but in my opinion fails quite miserably! There is no sandy beach near town, though a fair ground tries to compensate, and in winter, like much of...more
Al-Hajjara and the Huraz Mountains
10/10Al-Hujjara is an extraordinary village clinging precariously to the mountain top and set among some of the best scenery in all of Yemen. There is good, laid back accommodation but it is the chance to wander off into the mountains and villages scattered all around that make it so worth while. I would recommend 2 full days here if possible and...more
Shibam / Khokabam
rating: 7/10There is more than one Shibam, hence why I've lumped these two neighbouring villages together. Only about 1 1/2 hours north west of Sana'a, Shibam, despite sounding interesting in the guide books I found to be little more than another scruffy little village, though in an interesting setting. It really is more just a gateway to Khokabam...more
Manakha and the Huraz Mountains
7/10West of Sana'a you climb into the stunning Manakha Mountains. The town itself, perched high on a ridge has great view all around though is very scruffy (as are many Yemeni towns). As a preference I would continue along the road about 2km to Al-Hajjara.more
rating: 10/10First off, this rating above. Not everyone will have time to see all of Yemen and may need to make sacrifices, so I have rated the destinations how I found them ...10/10 being an absolute must-see5/10 being just about worth it but dont expect too much1/10 being I'd rather chew my own foot offOf course its only my personal view and...more
Best viewpoints - Sanaa
Most hotels in the Old Town of Sanaa give free access to their roof where you can make exceptional photos of the Old Town architecture. The "Gallery no. 1" in the Old Town is located in a "samsarat" (=former trading post) with a great view on Sanaa as well, especially at night. You can climb on the ramparts of the "Bab al Yemen". There is an...more
Kawkaban is one of the most scenic and photogenic villages in Yemen. It is only one hour out of Sana'a, so it makes for a popular day trip from the capital. Because it is a popular tourist destination, this was the only place in Yemen where I encountered aggressive locals trying to sell souvenirs. Most were offering very rare and valuable ancient...more
Sana'a - surrounding area
A day trip out to Wadi Dhahr is really well worth it and doesnt require any permits.To get there leave through the Bab Al yemen gate, cross the road and pass through one of the alleys in the buildings opposite to the bus station. Ask for a bus to Jamal Al Jadete (20YR / 10c / UK0.05) - it will be a mid size bus, not a minibus.At Jamal Al Jadete...more
Sultan`s Palace in Sayun
The major attraction of Sayun is the former Sultan`s Palace, towering above the smaller houses of the city. On the different levels of the palace you get excellent photo opportunities for a birds-eye picture of Sayun. The palace features a small (boring) museum and a superb photo exhibition with interesting black- and white pictures from Yemen in...more
RadaRada is not very often visited by tourist, but it's worth to wander around the large old centre and have a visit to the old suq.The ground floors of the houses are made of stone, the next floors are usually built of brick and finished with a beautiful, smooth mud surfacing that needs to be renewed every day.Keep an eye open for the windows and...more
AzzanThough the modern centre of the town of Azzan is not too attractive, the old town is worth a visit.The old city is buillt low on the banks of the wadi, framed on all sides by majestic table mountains.A distinctive feature of the houses are the highly protuding corner peaks on the roofs. These are often painted white with chalk and are of...more
Bir'AliA sceniv coastal road streches west of Al Mukkala, with sand dunes sometimes invading the road.There is a pleasant strech of beach know as Bir'Ali, offering a resthouse, with shared bathrooms and toilet.The geology around is impressive, with black volcanic rock and green crater-lakes providing a strong contrast with the white sandy beaches.more
Rock Castles
Another day trip from Sanaa. Sorry don't remember the specific name so if you do please feel free to let me know. This was one of the more memorable sites I visited in Yemen. You need to 4wd off one of the main roads to a small village then it is a brief hike out to the end of the mesa where you can view this old fort/castle from the other side of...more
Sa'adah city and province (currently...
One of the very tribal governorates of Yemen, Sa'adah is well worth a visit. Unfortunately it has seen three rounds of fighting between 2004 and June 2007. There is a - perhaps rather fragile - truce now, so hopefully order will be restored, displaced persons will be able to return to their homes, war damages will be repaired .... and tourists will...more
Zabid -UNESCO World Heritage Center
Zabid was the capital of Yemen from 1400 to 1600 and was a huge influence in the Arab world of that time. Before that Zabid was the capital of the Ziyadid dynasty from 819–1018 and the Najahid dynasty from 1022–1158. Here at Zabid was one of the major centers of learning with Zabid's Islamic University. Zabid is another site in Yemen that is a...more

Shibam Is the "the oldest skyscraper-city in the world", This is a Unesco heritage site and it deserves that designation for sure. This part of the Arabian Peninsula was for many centuries or even thousands of years the Hadramawt Kingdom and Shibam was its capital. This is a place legions are made of. When you drive towards Shibam and the sunlight...more
Drink a cup of Mukha or visit Mukha
The mother of all coffee cames via this port and for hundreds of year coffee was only grown in the mountains of Yemen and shipped to the port of Al Mukha Mocha. The name Coffee is from the name of the original Kaveh houses. I would go down the street and they would roast the coffee in a very thick pan than grind it and serve very HOT -- now that is...more
Exploring the Outskirts
If you've been here feel free to mention the name to me since my note taking skills here were not what I thought they were. This place is about an hour or so out of the city and any good driver will take you here if you are interested in the old villages that make up this great country. The village or fort sits on the side of a hill and the local...more
Al-MukallaThe most impressive sight in Al-Mukalla is the coastline of the old town, a chain of white houses, built next to the waterfront, squeezed between the sea and hudge volcanic mountains.Al-Mukalla is one of Yemen's most important ports, and became an important local power in the 8th century AD.Well worth a visit is the new fish-market in the...more

Sayun (Tomb of Ahmad ibn Isa al-Muhajir)
Tomb of Ahmad ibn Isa al-MuhajirIn 951 AD Sayyid Ahmad ibn Isa al-Muhajir, a descendant of the prophet Muhammad, came here, out of Iraq with 80 families and settled in the eastern part of Wadi Hadhramawt, establishing Shafa'ism in the region.The tomb of al-Muhajir is still an important place of pilgrimage, and the town of Tarim has remaind the...more
Wadi Hadhramawt
Wadi HadhramawtWadi Hadramawt, the biggest wadi in the Arabian Peninsula, is one of the major attractions of southern Yemen.Formed by erosion of the sandstone bedrock over millions of years, the main wadi is today some 300 meters deep and two-km wide and runs for 160 km, west to east.The abundance of archaeological sites in the wadi, reveal that...more
Sayun (Sultan's Palace)
Sultan's PalaceThe Sultan's Palace in Sayun is perhaps the most pompous of all South Yemeni palaces, a multistorey , white-plastered colossus with light-blue window decorations.It stands on an elevation next to the town's central souq.The present shape of the building stems from the 1920s and 1930s when the Kathiri sultans Mansur bin Galbi and his...more

Sort It and Store It
NYC Momma from NC – Verified Buyer
Structure: The Sort It is not made of durable or heavy wood so it was easy to put together; however many of the pre-drilled holes were not properly aligned or drilled enough. In addition, you will definitely need to screw on the 4 included foot pods, otherwise the unit will topple over without them. Functionality: The bins come in 3 different sizes, and we were able to fit tons of blocks, legos, wooden letters, balls, remote controlled cars, markers and action figures into the compartments easily. I love the height of the Sort-It, because my 2 yr old can easily access his toys, but the best thing about this is, the Sort-It does the job of keeping our playroom neat and tidy after play time is over. It's also a great way to get the little ones in the habit of cleaning up after themselves.
Surprising amount of storage
Liane from Florence, KY
This was an easy assembly that only took a few minutes. I was surprised at how much the bins can actually hold. Before I got this for my grandson, the shelves in his room were overflowing with toys but this held them all and then some. He enjoys helping to put his toys away since the bins make organizing his toys so easy. The bright colors are very fun and perfect for a child's room. Bins can be easily taken off the shelf and then put back again. Sturdy, easy assembly, beautiful design
great product
Michelle from Los Gatos, CA – Verified Buyer
this product was intended to hold my kids toys and provide a place where she can easily get to legos and figures. For the most part I am happy with the quality and design. My one problem is that the bins could be a bit deeper because when you tilt them it reduces the storage capacity but other than that I am happy.
Perfect size, color and quality
Avalon from Woodbridge, VA – Verified Buyer
Lots and lots of storage for toys and the quality and color is just what I needed. Sadly (but this may attest to quality and durability) I saw my two year old remove all the baskets and used the wooden frame as a ladder. Didn't topple over or crack, but it did send me running to her aid not that she was afraid. Good god help us.
Good buy
Yuliya from Hermitage, PA – Verified Buyer
Out of the toy storage units this one is the best quality (ordered three different manufacturer ones before, returned due to poor craftsmanship). Easy to put together, good customer support (find something broken in the box - call the company, they will send the replacement). I have two for two rooms.
Great storage and easy for kids to use
Marjorie from san mateo, CA – Verified Buyer
Assembled easily and immediately organized our 5 year olds toys. She can now clean up easier by herself and can still see all her toys. Makes play time easier to manage by themselves. Pros: Easy Assembly. Easy to use. Cons: Bins bump out easily... not a deal breaker tho.
Excellent, but get help
D from Potomac, MD – Verified Buyer
This is very nice-looking and utilitarian for the money. Not hard to put together, either. But the way that the pieces work, don't do what I did and try to do it alone: Get help. It's the way that the screws fit into the crossbars... it's tough to get them in without an extra set of hands. Also, if there's a way to get the feet to sit exactly even to the floor and even to one another, I must have missed it. (That's the only reason that I'm giving it 4, not 5, stars.) It does wobble a bit, but nothing too bad. Again, overall, it's looks great and is sturdy. I might buy it again for another area of the house.
Finally ! Organization !
Elaine R. from queens,ny – Top 100 Reviewer
A great replacement for the traditional toybox .......which I still love and use for bigger things. But....smaller objects , like blocks, miniature cars, little people, balls, etc......all the things that fall to the bottom and get lost in a regular toy box, are easy to find and retrieve. It also is a good tool to teach children to return things to these colorful plastic bins........which can be washed ....and replaced , if damaged.....and little fingers will not get caught under a lid that does not have a delay closure. Great idea for storing crafts for older children and adults. Well priced , well made, colorful..........easy to move around.
Perfect toy storage for 4 year old.
Jenise from Old Hickory, TN – Verified Buyer
I really like that the bins are bright, primary colors and that the unit itself comes in espresso to match the rest of my child's bedroom furniture. It was very easy to put together and works like a charm. My only complaint is I wish it were a tad heavier so it would be more sturdy. But on the flip side, it is not heavy enough to harm my child if he manages to pull it over. Overall, a really good investment :)
Lisa from Alexandria, VA – Verified Buyer
This is perfect! Our toddler has been able to get his own toys out since he was about 9 months old, which he loves being able to do. Now that he's almost 2yo, he can take some of the bins out himself. Great product, I love that it has the safety feet on the bottom to prevent tipping. We might buy another one for the play area in the basement!

Doing: Enjoying the sunshine. It does the soul good to wake up to blue skies, I swear! I am one of those people that it can never really be too hot for- even if I'm sitting half naked in my knickers sweating, I'm happy! I managed an afternoon in the park on Friday too, with an M&S picnic and lots of chatting with the husband, which was bliss. However, my 8 year old beloved DSLR finally bit the dust whilst we were trying to take photos- so enjoy the one salvagable photo above! A bit blurry, overexposed but the very last photo from that old camera so I had to put it in. Its replacement is on its way but I'm kind of sad to say goodbye to my old friend- it has been on many an adventure with me!
Loving: My new hair! I have had the itch to change things up a bit for a while, and decided to go for dip dye- I can always chop it off if I get bored, with no damage to the rest of my hair! It feels fun and is a big change but I like it. And as Harry has teased me, this totally helps my all black clothing habit- the hair adds a bit of colour now! For a better photo, have a look at my instagram.
Wearing: Midi dresses. At any chance I can get! I always feel way too exposed in over the knee dresses so I've been loving breezy midi dresses during this heatwave. I have a floaty white one I found the other week that I cannot wait to wear with a wide brim straw hat and a pretty pair of sandals. Summer uniform, right there.
Daydreaming: Of our honeymoon. My trip to our place in France the other week went by in a total flash and left me all the more impatient to go away! The hot weather is making me crave days by the sea, fresh fruit and wanders round pretty towns. We have booked to go to Sicily at the very end of August and I cannot. wait. Bring on the Gelato! If anyone has any must see places in the south east of Sicily, let me know!
Links of the week:
Who has watched Rihanna's 'Bitch better have my money' video? The song is damn catchy, for sure, but this article says everything I could ever want to say about the video... Sexualised violence against women shouldn't be celebrated, whether it is orchestrated by a man or a woman.
I'm considering FINALLY making the move to my own domain but constantly put off by the work involved with getting links organised etc. This post on how to fix broken links from Hello Terri Lowe makes it all so clear and simple!
I've been really missing open space and green fields this summer- I love being in the city but I'm a country girl at heart and sometimes I need to get out and away. I've now added another 16 places to the UK wanderlust list thanks to this!
Great to see some of my favourite brands in this Guardian ethical style guide! I am dying over the palm print jumpsuit!
Catch up with Chambray and Curls

I hope you all have a wonderful weekend- how has your week been? Tell me your news!

DENVER -- Andrelton Simmons hit his first career grand slam as part of a seven-run first inning, and the Atlanta Braves beat the Colorado Rockies 13-10 on Tuesday night.

 Evan Gattis had a home run among his three hits and Freddie Freeman also homered for the Braves, who had season-highs of 16 hits and 13 runs.

 The teams combined for 29 hits and neither starter made it out of the fifth inning. Rockies right-hander Juan Nicasio lasted just 3 2-3 innings and Atlanta's Mike Minor left after giving up two hits to start the fifth.

 David Hale (2-0) pitched 2 1-3 innings of relief for the win.

 The Rockies trailed 13-9 when reliever Jordan Walden walked the bases loaded with no outs in the eighth. One out later Shae Simmons came on and allowed a sacrifice fly by Justin Morneau but then struck out Josh Rutledge to end the threat.

 Craig Kimbrel struck out the side in the ninth for his 18th save in 21 chances.

 Nicasio had a scary moment when he deflected a line drive by Justin Upton with his glove in the bottom of the first.

 Nicasio fractured his neck and sustained a concussion when he was hit in the head by a line drive on Aug. 5, 2011. He missed the rest of his rookie season.

 Wilin Rosario homered and Rutledge had three hits for Colorado, which has lost 10 of 11 and 15 of 18 to fall six games below .500.

 The Braves jumped on Nicasio right away. Jayson Heyward doubled then B.J. Upton tripled and scored on a groundout. Four straight singles made it 3-0 and loaded the bases for Simmons, who went deep to center to make it 7-0.

 Atlanta sent 10 batters to the plate in the inning, and Colorado nearly matched it in the bottom of the frame.

 The Rockies scored three times on Rosario's single, Morneau's sacrifice fly and a bases-loaded walk to DJ LeMahieu

 Minor walked three batters and hit another and needed 38 pitches to get out of the first with a 7-3 lead.

 He gave his team an 8-3 lead with an RBI single in the third but then allowed two more runs in the bottom of the inning, including a run-scoring single to Nicasio.

 It wasn't enough for the right-hander, who left in the fourth after solo homers by Freeman and Gattis.

 Nicasio (5-5) allowed 10 runs and 11 hits. He has given up at least five runs and nine hits in his last three starts. His ERA has risen from 3.60 to 5.70 in the three outings, all losses.

 Atlanta scored three times off reliever Chad Bettis in the sixth to make it 13-8.

 NOTES: Justin Upton left the game in the first inning with a strained left hamstring. He is day to day. ... Gattis extended his hitting streak to 11 games with a single in the first inning. ... Rockies OF Carlos Gonzalez had a small tumor removed from his left index finger. The procedure was performed in Cleveland. ... The Braves activated Walden from the 15-day DL and optioned LHP Alex Wood to Triple-A Gwinnett. ... Atlanta RHP Julio Teheran (6-3, 1.89) will face LHP Tyler Matzek, who will make his major league debut for the Rockies on Wednesday night.

Making Progress: Tribes Ascend's Accelerate Update
It seems like only yesterday that Nathan wrote these words in regards to unlocking gear in Tribes: Ascend: 'item unlocks still present a rather intimidating series of (often literally) uphill battles.' The Accelerate Update flattens out those hills, or perhaps raises players to the top and allows them to roll down the other side. Well, sort of. The update addresses some frustrations by having gear upgrades unlock through use, although new weapons themselves will still cost XP or gold. There are 27 weapon variants coming as well, providing a place to spend all that surplus XP. The video below explains all.

Positive: 3 out of 13

Oct 6, 2011The duo inject tracks like "Then I Go Twisting" with more humanity than the Pro Tools post-modernists who regularly steal their essence. [7 Oct 2011, p.75]
Oct 14, 2011There's a cohesiveness issue that keeps this one off their top shelf, but Erasure have settled nicely into that groove that the best veteran bands often do.
Oct 31, 2011Tomorrow's World appeals to fans of Erasure's later albums just as much as it appeases those who swooned along to A Little Respect in 1988.
Oct 11, 2011The nine-song set shows that keyboardist-mastermind Vince Clarke's genius for weaving grand melodies with ecstatic beats is still intact, but tinny vocal compression muddles throbbers like "Whole Lotta Love Run Riot."
Oct 13, 2011Its peaks aren't as high as [2005's Nightbird, or 1997's Cowboy's] standouts--there's no "Don't Say You Love Me" or "Rain" here--but most of these nine songs have big choruses that sneak into your head, sometimes against your better judgment.
Oct 12, 2011There's a glistening sheen here, and the mixture of fast and slow ("When I Start to Breathe" is ballad-like with an eminently hummable chorus) keeps things refreshing.

Where Erasure always maintained an lushly independent sound in the earlier years, Tomorrow's World tries desperately to cram drastically different styles into a single work and it feels degraded to broad gay club riffs than a their signature sound.

It's worse than that: Autotune. On Andy's voice. Too much of this effort sounds like the strict dance album Andy put out as his last solo work, only worse. The synth settings are mostly awful Eurodisco-sounding. The mid-tempo thinkers are more properly Erasure, but there aren't enough of them to rescue this from a 5.

Tamoxifen had some troubling side effects: Longer use nearly doubled the risk of endometrial cancer. But it rarely proved fatal, and there was no increased risk among premenopausal women in the study — the very group tamoxifen helps most.
"Overall the benefits of extended tamoxifen seemed to outweigh the risks substantially," Dr. Trevor Powles of the Cancer Centre London wrote in an editorial published with the study.
The study was sponsored by cancer research organizations in Britain and Europe, the United States Army, and AstraZeneca PLC, which makes Nolvadex, a brand of tamoxifen, which also is sold as a generic for 10 to 50 cents a day. Brand-name versions of the newer hormone blockers, aromatase inhibitors, are $300 or more per month, but generics are available for much less.
The results pose a quandary for breast cancer patients past menopause and those who become menopausal because of their treatment — the vast majority of cases. Previous studies found that starting on one of the newer hormone blockers led to fewer relapses than initial treatment with tamoxifen did.
Another study found that switching to one of the new drugs after five years of tamoxifen cut the risk of breast cancer recurrence nearly in half — more than what was seen in the new study of 10 years of tamoxifen.
"For postmenopausal women, the data still remain much stronger at this point for a switch to an aromatase inhibitor," said that study's leader, Dr. Paul Goss of Massachusetts General Hospital. He has been a paid speaker for a company that makes one of those drugs.
Women in his study have not been followed long enough to see whether switching cuts deaths from breast cancer, as 10 years of tamoxifen did. Results are expected in about a year.
The cancer conference is sponsored by the American Association for Cancer Research, Baylor College of Medicine and the UT Health Science Center.

If you are looking for a civilized vacation, look no further. With the most appealing pool area around, an atmosphere of relaxed understated elegance throughout, uniformly excellent rooms and friendly service, this is almost certainly the best bet in Waikiki.
For a special occasion, we sprang for an ocean front room with a spectacular view of Diamond Head. It was worth the $760 a night price (including breakfast). But you can save as much as $200 a night and still have a luxurious room with a pleasant view. Except for the pricey suites, all the rooms are very similar, with the rate mainly determined by the view. Even the cheapest rooms overlook beautiful gardens. Here "garden view" is not a euphemism for "parking-lot view."
The rooms aren't glitzy or lavish, but they are comfortable and tasteful. Every room has a sofa (a bit small) and terrace (lanai in Hawaii-speak). Closet space is ample and the bathrooms are luxurious. We appreciated having a separate stall shower as well tub. The bed was superb.
The beach immediately in front of the hotel is skimpy. But the spacious pool area is perhaps the hotel's greatest plus. During our week's stay, there was never once a shortage of desirable lounge chairs. There is only one pool, but it is large and beautiful. This contrasts with the surprisingly small pools and cramped pool areas at some of the Halekulani's upscale competitors nearby.
There is nothing even remotely like a water slide at this hotel. The lack of such facilities may make this a poor choice for family with older children. But there were a number of small kids -- almost all beautifully behaved. This may be one place where all the children really are "above average."
We usually had breakfast at the informal "House Without a Key" restaurant, which serves a nice buffet in a pleasant indoor/outdoor setting. We tried the special Sunday brunch, really a buffet lunch, at the somewhat more formal "Orchids" restaurant. Except for the excellent desserts, the food wasn't fabulous, but it was good -- as it should be at $57 a head. We dined once at the top restaurant, La Mer. The room and the ocean view were spectacular. The food was better than most resort food, but wasn't distinguished enough to justify the $110 minimum prix fixe.
There are many excellent dining options at various prices nearby. The branch of Nobu right across the street serves interesting Japanese (or sort-of-Japanese) food, though a hungry person would have to order lots of exquisite little plates to leave feeling full. We found the Italian restaurant Taormina a block or so away served very good food at fair prices. We thought the front tables were the most appealing. Il Lupino near the Royal Hawaiian Hotel was also good for the price, though the service was slow. Half a block from the hotel a branch of the excellent ABC convenience-story chain offered surprisingly good take-out. A couple of times, we bought lunch there and enjoyed it on our lanai overlooking Waikiki Beach -- for under $10 a head.
The Halekulani's location couldn't be more convenient. Nearby branches of Hermes, Louis Vuitton and others should supply all your vacation necessities. The extensive local bus service took us all over town. (We found Chinatown very disappointing, but the Diamond Head excursion was spectacular.)
So, any quibbles? Yes. If you are dreaming of a romantic moonlit swim in the pool, forget it -- the pool closes about 6 p.m. Also, for some bizarre reason, there are no coffee pots in the rooms.
Other than that, go for it!
