Its scattered all over, not the regional news ref:

Pictures of the Raj found in a shoebox - nicer than Glasgow[^]

A curry a day may keep cancer away or something[^]

Attack of the killer bees - Pakistan not blamed yet[^]

The cup that cheers, but does not inebriate. Ghandi's reputation now in tatters.[^]

Sort of a cross between Lawrence of Arabia and Dilbert.[^]
-Or-
A Dead ringer for Kate Winslett[^]

7% of the seats currently going to "The Golden Dawn Party"
To quote wikipedia:
"Golden Dawn describes itself as a "People's Nationalist Movement" and "uncompromising Nationalists."[9] Michaloliakos described Golden Dawn as opposing the "so-called Enlightenment" and the Industrial Revoltion"
Because of course rational thinking and philosophy are anathema to the Greek Psyche^*. Christ, they've even found themselves a Greek decorative symbol, whilst not actually being a schwastika, is very like one, then used the classic facist black on white on red colour scheme. OMG | :OMG:
