Overview of Health Insurance
Health insurance is a hotly debated topic in this year’s presidential elections. Obama-care has some citizens fuming over the possibility universal healthcare. But before I go preaching about my thoughts on Obama-care, we should get a full grasp of what health insurance entails for a buyer.

10 Ice Cream Flavours
Of course, we all have our own personal favourites, but what, as a whole, are the top 10 ice cream flavours?

Manhattan of the Desert: Shibam
The city of Shibam, located in the central-western area of Hadhramaut Governorate, in the Ramlat al-Sab`atayn desert, is best known for its towering mudbrick skyscrapers. This small town of 7000 is packed with around 500 mud houses standing between 5 and 11 stories tall and reaching 100 feet high, all constructed entirely of mud bricks. The bizarre skyline that the high rise buildings bestow upon the city has earned Shibam the moniker "Manhattan of the Desert."
Shibam is often called "the oldest skyscraper city in the world" and is one of the oldest and best examples of urban planning based on the principle of vertical construction. Its plan is trapezoidal, almost rectangular; and it is enclosed by earthen walls within which a block of dwellings, also built from earth, have been laid out on an orthogonal grid. Shibam was founded in the 3rd century AD, but most of the houses you see here dates only to the 16th century, following a devastating flood of which Shibam was the victim in 1532-33. However, some older houses and large buildings still remain from the first centuries of Islam, such as the Friday Mosque, built in 904, and the castle, built in 1220.
