- travel
Athens is still a really great place for a weekend break, for shopping, sight seeing, relaxing and more. Who hasn't heard of the marvelous Acropolis? Nominated as one of the 7 wonders of our modern world, you can see it from your room if you stay at the Hilton in Athens. The Holy Rock of Acropolis dates back to the 5th BC, today it's still well worth seeing. Athens itself has seen times of boom ...

Hungary's E-PM Supports Debate Involving Jobbik
- 16 May 2014 2:00 AM
- current affairs
Participation in a public debate including Jobbik would not mean cooperation with radical nationalists but rather serve to “reveal an unacceptably extremist” power, E-PM leader Gordon Bajnai said in a letter on Friday. Bajnai responded to a call by Ferenc Gyurcsány, leader of the Democratic Coalition (DK), who appealed to leaders of E-PM and the Socialists to call off an EP election debate ...

'There’s An Elephant In Every Room', Jurányi House Budapest, 22 March
- 19 Mar 2014 8:02 AM
- entertainment
Skeletons in the closet, elephants in all the rooms, not to mention that ridiculous beam in my eye and the owl telling the sparrow that his head is too big, so we just break those pitchers one after the other while the poor dog overtakes from the left and of course one swallow is not enough for anything and you could buy a rose without a thorn, but that would be included in the price.

By We Love Budapest : It's not all about tapas and wine when it comes to Spanish cuisine, and it is definitely not just the meals and drinks you miss if living abroad.

We all know about Viktor Orbán’s infatuation with the spiritual in the last few years. Maybe I just don’t remember properly, but I can’t recall much piety in his speeches during his first premiership between 1998 and 2002. Today, by contrast, his speeches are teeming with Biblical quotations and Latin religious phrases. And his generosity toward the “established” churches, especially the Catholic ...
