1980s hits ‘Is She Really Going Out With Him’ and ‘Different For Girls’ suggested a glorious pop future for Joe Jackson. However, Beat Crazy – his follow-up collection of 1930s jive tunes – confounded industry logic and Jackson’s been pushing his musical boundaries and his fans’ patience ever since. Touring to support ‘Night and Day II’, a self-proclaimed concept album, Jackson is a charming and assured performer. But he and his followers are travelling such a unique and precious path that newcomers may feel like unwanted guests.

Saturdays for Young People is the name of the courses that AR.CO, the Centre for Art and Visual Communication near the castle of Saint George is organising every weekend during term time. There are workshops in a variety of disciplines, including photography (shooting, developing and printing), painting and drawing, jewellery design and ceramics, all for children aged between 10 and 15. The cost is 40,000 escudos for a course of Saturdays, from Jan 20 to Mar 17 or Apr 7 to Jun 9, but it is possible to arrange to attend just a few sessions.
Football: Real Madrid vs Villarreal July 22, 2010

An interesting tussle this. Real, who have already blown more than one chance to practically clinch the title, face upstarts Villarreal, the season’s ‘revelation team’. While several points clear at the top of the table, a recently lacklustre Real cannot afford any slip-ups as others are nagging at their heels. Little Villarreal, in only their second-ever season in the top flight, are up for UEFA qualification and looking good, especially since signing ace Argentinean striker Martín Palermo from Boca Juniors. Probably a home win, but don’t bet on it.
Konoba July 20, 2010

Once again it’s down to the Croats to supply Vienna with affordable fish and seafood. In a pleasant stripped wood and po-mo ventilation duct setting, Konoba brings a refreshing taste of the Dalmatian coast to Vienna with dishes such as the hefty Buzara – mussels in a potent wine, garlic, olive oil and parsley sauce. Garlic tends to be prominent here – often to the detriment of the superbly grilled sea bass and bream – so ask the staff to go easy on it. The edge can also be removed by downing plenty of fruity Dalmatian whites such as Laski Rizling and Dingac.

This beautifully
designed 1930s-style, sparkling white building is stark and spacious
within – the perfect setting for a collection of innovative design.
Incredibly user-friendly, the museum consists of just two levels with a
minimum of exhibits. The first floor holds the Review Collection (state-of-the-art innovations from around the world) and the Temporary Exhibition Gallery . Temporary exhibitions for 2000 include Bauhaus Dessau (10 Feb-4 June), an in-depth look at the significance of the period when the Bauhaus was based in Dessau (1925-32), the Life and Work of Buckminster Fuller (15 June-15 Oct) and Five Designs of Mr Brunel (26 Oct-25 Feb 2001).
The Collection Gallery ,
devoted to the study of design for mass production, is housed on the
second floor. Arranged thematically, it concentrates on different types
of product. The car is one such focus – look for the wooden model made
up from drawings by the architect and designer Le Corbusier dating from
1928. There are also early televisions, washing machines, telephones,
chairs (including one designed by Rennie Mackintosh) and a collection
of tableware. Temporary shows in the Collection Gallery during 2000
include Dr Martens Airwair (Mar-May) and Hong Kong Architecture: Aesthetic of Connection (1 June-31 July). The Blue Print Caf? ,
which shares the building, with its balcony overlooking the Thames, is
an appropriately stylish establishment (but be warned, it’s a
restaurant rather than a caf?, with prices to match).

‘Eclipse’ is a fast moving spectacle of illusions, marvels, comedy and dance, which takes the audience on a journey beyond time and imagination. This début show, for the newly opened Caesar’s Casino Resort, promises to put all other stage spectaculars in the shade. Speciality acts have been gathered from all over the globe and include the hilarious American juggler, tightrope-walker and comedian Holy Howling Holly and Arabesque – four amazing contortionists from Mongolia. This breathtaking, dynamic and magical show is sure to pack in the pizzazz.

After one of the most publicised construction periods and anticipated openings in recent memory, Bacar has finally opened for business, and it is quickly becoming the hot new restaurant in town. The brainchild of a collection of savvy industry veterans, Bacar is a stylish, two-level brick-walled space where wine is king. Chef Arnold Eric Wong prepares smart, seasonal American fare, ranging from wood-fired pizzas to Muscovy duck and vegetable potpie. But the real draw here is the wine list, which features more than 1000 varieties – including many hard-to-find selections – all impressively displayed in a three-story ‘wine wall’.
