Yes, we presided over Europe!
And we didn't mess it up!!
As part of its Presidency of the European Union, Cyprus organised some 'high profile' events, one of which was the European Migration Network (EMN) Conference, 2012.

what's in a name? investigating the konis name
What's in a name?!
I typed 'Konis' in Google's Search engine, I confess, to see where my name would appear. To my disappointment, after going through the first 61 pages (athkiaseros!), my name did not register. The Cyprus Konis clan is not too prominent!* There are more distinguished ones abroad. Here's a brief list: Konis Nino Santana: An East Timorese, guerilla-leader, freedom fighter, who died in 1998. If you are ever in East Timor, don't neglect to visit Konis Park. Dave Konis, a petty criminal, still wanted apparently (ela Dave!). Konis Travel, in the UK, specialises on trips to ... Pakistan! Konis Doughnuts, in New York: Delicious! Ben Konis the 'world famous' artist. His gallery can be viewed at Konis.com. Let us not forget the annual Konis golf event (or something). If in Crete, stay at 'Koni Village'. Apparently, its swimming pool is very clean (read tourist reviews). The original Dr. Konis is of course ... E.Konis (!)... his doctoral thesis on 'Thermal relations of Plants in Palestine' (?) was published in 1943. Then, there is a certain Polyvios Konis (PhD Byzantine studies). Read his article on post-resurrection appearances of Christ (apparently there were a few). If you want to maximise your chances of conception (getting pregnant), see what Leonard Konis can do for you. In fact, if you have dental or medical problems, there are lots of Konises around the world to help. Anastasia Konis, over in Australia, can help you quit smoking or make you a child again. She is a hypnosis-regression expert. By the way, Joe Konis has sold 100% of his shares of his company ('Arrosto Coffee'- clever name, eh?) to 'Peabody's Coffee'... If you need to hire a world famous actor, forget Brad Pitt. Go for Alex Konis. He's been in at least 5 films. For insecticide patents (killing nasty microbes), look no further than Yoel Konis, and if you are very bright, go study under Kjell Konis at the University of Oxford. You want to curl up with a good exotic read this Summer? Ibrahim El Konis (O Avraam tou Koni diladi) has written 'Desert' in difficult, archaic, yet well crafted prose.... After all this, do you wonder why John Koniszewski's children changed their name to 'Konis'?

This is the town where I live: |
The thing about socio-cultural revolutions is that we rarely know we are living them until a historian finds out years later. You see, when there's little blood, your average journalist won't sniff the story out and report on it. Well, the BBC has made an exception in this instance. We're living possibly the most dramatic revolution of all time (forget Fred and Barney's Stone Age revolution) and we are hardly conscious of it. The Virtual Revolution has changed the world and will continue to do so at an exponential rate. Check this out:
How will the internet, TV, information gathering and entertainment, look like in the future? Will the immediately accessible information (i.e. the net) make our brains lazier, or the opposite?
