Thousands of Greeks have taken to the streets of Athens in a warning to new Prime Minister Lucas Papademos. But this new government is not the result of popular pressure, says Yanis Varoufakis, professor of economics at Athens University.

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..........

European banks have agreed to write off 50% of the debt owed to them by Greece. It was decided during an emergency summit in Brussels, where EU leaders made, what many believe, was the final attempt to save the Eurozone. The settlement was reportedly a close-run thing, with the bank lobby holding out until German Chancellor Angela Merkel threatened letting Greece default. The EU also promises to loan Athens another 100-billion euros, while the ballooning bailout fund is in line to expand to a trillion euros. Now the task is to put it all into action. And Johan Van Overtveldt, who runs two of Belgium's leading business magazines, believes what's been achieved simply lacks any sort of punch.

For over a thousand years, the Sanctuary of Olympia was primarily a religious place and only open to people during the Olympic games, started here in 776 B.C. These games were held to honor the gods and to unify the Greeks, and the Sanctuary hosted them for 1,200 years.

Videography by Bill Day. Photos by Caroline Day. Limnos with one of the prettiest harbors in Greece, beautiful beaches and picturesque, traditional villages untouched by modern-day tourism, hardly fits with any Greek Island stereotypes. Our good friends John and Claudia invited us over to stay at their summer house for 10 days. How could we say no? They are the best cooks we know. Their daughter Tien is not only the cutest girl only the Island, but should get a Phd for her extensive knowledge of Greek mythology. Special thanks for Kosta for sail boat rides and great stories.

Ferries to Corfu: http://ferriesgreece.org/ferries-greece/ferries-corfu/ Corfu is a Greek island in the Ionian Sea. It is the second largest of the Ionian Islands. Its northern part lies off the coast of Sarandë, Albania, from which it is separated by straits varying in breadth from 3 to 23 km (2 to 15 mi), including one near ancient Butrint, while its southern part lies off the coast of Thesprotia, Greece. The island is part of the Corfu Prefecture and includes twelve of the sixteen municipalities or communes in the prefecture and communities of Ereikoussa, Mathraki, Othonoi, and Municipality of Paxoi, which are all separate islands. The principal town (pop. 28,185) of the island is also named Corfu, or Kérkyra in Greek, as is its municipality (pop. 39,487). Corfu is home to the Ionian University. The island is connected to the history of Greece from the beginning of Greek mythology. Its Greek name, Kerkyra or Korkyra, is related to two powerful water symbols: Poseidon, god of the sea, and Asopos, an important Greek mainland river. According to myth, Poseidon fell in love with the beautiful nymph Korkyra, daughter of Asopus and river nymph Metope, and abducted her, as was the custom among gods of the era's myths. Zeus was a serial offender. Poseidon brought Metope to the hitherto unnamed island and, in marital bliss, offered her name to the place: Korkyra, which gradually evolved to Kerkyra (Doric). Together, they had a child they called Phaiax, after whom the inhabitants of the island were named: Phaiakes. This term was transliterated via Latin to Phaeacians. The island's history is laden with battles and conquests, indicative of Corfu's turbulent position in a historical vortex lasting until the modern period. Unification with modern Greece from 1864 made the island's history one with that of the mainland, with no further foreign intervention. The legacy of these struggles is visible in the form of castles punctuating strategic locations across the island. Two of these castles enclose its capital, which is the only city in Greece to be surrounded in such a way. As a result, Corfu's capital has been officially declared a Kastropolis (Castle city) by the Greek Government. In 2007, the city's old town was designated for the UNESCO World Heritage List, following a recommendation by ICOMOS. ( source Wikipedia )

The National Archaeological Museum in Athens is the single best place on earth to see ancient Greek artifacts. Strolling through the chronologically displayed collection — from 7,000 B.C. to A.D. 500 — is like watching a time-lapse movie of the evolution of art. You'll go from the stylized figurines of the Cycladic Islands, to the golden artifacts of the Mycenaeans, to the stiff, stoic kouros statues of the Archaic age.
