Thousands of protesters on Thursday took part in an annual demonstration in the capital Athens to commemorate 1973 crackdown on a student uprising by the military dictatorship that ruled Greece from 1967 to 1974. Some 7,000 police - about one for every demonstrator - were monitoring the protest, which comes at the height of a vicious financial crisis that has seen many violent demonstrations.

Greek anger over new austerity measures and layoffs erupted into violence outside parliament on Wednesday, as demonstrators hurled chunks of marble and gasoline bombs and riot police responded with tear gas and stun grenades that echoed across Athens' main square. Police said at least 14 officers were hospitalised with injuries, and at least three journalists covering the demonstrations sustained minor injuries. The violence spread across the city centre, as at least 100-thousand people marched through the Greek capital on the first day of a two-day general strike that unions described as the largest protest in years. Most of the protesters marched peacefully, but crowds outside of parliament clashed with police who tried to disperse them with repeated rounds of tear gas. Hundreds of rioting youths smashed and looted stores in central Athens on Wednesday after the mass anti-government rally against the new painful austerity measures. Police and rioters held running battles through the narrow streets of central Athens, as thick black smoke from burning rubbish and bus-stops set ablaze filled the city's skyline and obscured its ancient monuments. A gasoline bomb set fire to a presidential guard sentry post at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier outside Parliament, while running clashes broke out in several side streets near the legislature and the capital's main Syntagma Square. Nearby, groups of hooded, masked protesters tore chunks of marble off building fronts with hammers and crowbars and smashed windows and bank signs. Scuffles also broke out among rioters and demonstrators trying to prevent youths from destroying storefronts along the march route.

Watch VICE on HBO Fridays at 11 PM, only on HBO: http://bit.ly/Subscribe-to-VICE-News Segment 1: Chinese Cockblock What happens when 50 million men can't get laid? China's "one child" policy, coupled with a longstanding cultural predilection for male babies, has created a market where marrying-age men outnumber women by the millions. The fabric of this social engineering has thrown old-fashioned courtship out the window and created a lucrative business catered to matchmaking. VICE travels across China to meet with bachelors searching for love, and talk to a professional matchmaker who explains the scope of the issue and tries to find a girlfriend for correspondent Thomas Morton. Segment 2: European Meltdown With their economy in the toilet and no jobs to be had, Europe's youth are taking to the streets to demand radical changes. There has been a rise in extremism on both ends of the spectrum, as people respond to economic precarity and political impotency. VICE heads to Greece and Spain, two of the countries hardest hit by the financial crisis, to see how the youth are responding.

After a night of tough negotiations European leaders clinched a deal on Thursday, agreeing to have banks take bigger losses on Greece's debts. The plan includes a significant reduction of Greece's debts and a reinforcement of a bailout fund so it can serve as a 1 trillion euros ($1.39 trillion). The move is aimed to prevent larger economies like Italy and Spain from being dragged into the crisis. And whether the EU anti-crisis plan is effective or not, for the austerity-hit Greek people any help appears to be a long way off. Many are finding new ways to survive in hard times, as RT's Sara Firth reports. RT on Twitter http://twitter.com/RT_com RT on Facebook http://www.facebook.com/RTnews

Only a 90-minute hydrofoil ride from bustling Athens, Hydra is the prettiest of the Greek isles. The community is an easy blend of work-a-day commerce, fancy yachts and lazy tourists meandering through traffic-free streets, alongside the occasional donkey.

Hike to the top of the Plaka and explore the charming "village" of Anafiotika, built in the 19th century by people from the tiny Cycladic island of Anafi who came here to the big city looking for work. In this oasis of tranquility, nestled beneath the walls of the Acropolis, the intensity of Athens seems miles away.

Ancient Delphi, perched high on the slopes of Mt. Parnassos, was not a city. It was the site of the oracle of Apollo, god of the sun. People would journey here from all over the known world to seek wisdom from the gods on vital affairs of state. Tourists today zig-zag up the ancient Sacred Way to the Temple of Apollo. The path is flanked by the remains of Delphi's famous treasuries — monuments erected by city-states in gratitude for the oracle's advice.

Mycenae, a hilltop fortress located on the Peloponnesian Peninsula SW of Athens was the hub of a mighty civilization that dominated the Greek world between 1600 and 1200 B.C., a thousand years before Athens' Golden Age. The Mycenaeans were as distant and mysterious to the Golden Age Greeks as Plato and Socrates are to us today. Mycenae lay unappreciated until the 19th century when a treasure trove of gold was unearthed in the necropolis. Today, those treasures, including the so-called "Mask of Agamemnon" are the star attractions in Athens' National Archaeological Museum. This discovery affirmed the archeologists' theory that Mycenae was Homer's fabled city "rich in gold."

No copyright infringment intended! This video clip ( pictures ,film, art work, music ) has been edited and uploaded for ENTERTAINMENT PURPOSE'S ONLY! FAIR USE ACT Let me first confess, this song brought me to fall in love with Greek music, and now continue to read please:) Yannis Parios was born on the island of Paros, Greece. He made his first appearance as a singer in 1969. At that time no one could have imagined that his voice would one day become the most perfect expression of the word love. Any attempt to analyse the Parios Phenomenon, his enormous appeal to the public and the hundreds of thousands of record sales (all his releases have won both gold and platinum discs), will show that his success is the result of his constant search for lyrics and music which contribute to his own growth as an artist, which promote his art and which will stand the test of time. Most of Yannis Parios time is spent on his work, which he approaches with dedication and respect. Yannis Parios does not confine his appearances to Greece: he has sung at the Albert Hall, the Carnegie Hall and the largest theatres in Canada and Australia. He has also appeared on radio and TV programs with very high viewing and listening rates. απορώ Απορώ με μένα, απορώ, που σε θέλω ακόμα απορώ. Κάνεις τόσα λάθη και σ' τα συγχωρώ, σαν βροχή το χώμα σε ζητώ. Απορώ με την καρδιά μου που αντέχει να πονά. Φαίνεται πρώτη φορά μου αγαπώ αληθινά. Απορώ με μένα, απορώ, κάνω για να φύγω κι όμως δεν μπορώ. Ξέρω πως μου κάνεις μέσα μου κακό κι όμως δεν το κρύβω: σ' αγαπώ. Wonder I am wondering about my self, i do wonder that I still want you, I wonder. You make so many mistakes, and I forgive you I need you like the earth needs the rain I am wondering with my heart that can stand all this pain It seems to me that is the first time I really fell in love I am wondering with myself, I do wonder I am trying to leave but I cannot I know that you are hurting me inside but I am not hiding it, I love you On the video you will see the Paros Island and Parios photos Enjoy !

Beautiful love song. Photos of Crete, Greece where Nana Mouskouri was born. Lyrics :) I never dared to reach for the moon I never thought I'd know heaven so soon I couldn't hold to say how I feel The joy in my heart no words can reveal Over and over I whisper your name Over and over I kiss you again I see the light of love in your eyes Love is forever, no more good-byes Now just a memory the tears that I cried Now just a memory the sighs that I sighed Dreams that I cherished all have come true All my tomorrows I give to you Over and over I whisper your name Over and over I kiss you again I see the light of love in your eyes Love is forever, no more good-byes Life's summer leaves may turn into gold The love that we share will never grow old Here in your arms no worlds far away Here in your arms forever I'll stay Over and over I whisper your name Over and over I kiss you again I see the light of love in your eyes Love is forever, no more good-byes Over and over I whisper your name Over and over I kiss you again I see the light of love in your eyes Love is forever, no more good-byes Lailalala..........
