I believe this translates to 'Bull's Blood'...  BTW Alexander the Great was
a big fan of Hungarian wines......marc

Generally, in my humble opinion - and I find this sad to say because I really
like Hungary and my girlfriend is Hungarian - there is a tremendous amount of
prejudice against africans (of any nationality, including American) in Hungary.
I remember reading article after article on harassment of Nigerian exchange
students by Budapest police, etc. I would not want to spend any time in public
in Hungary with a brown face myself. This is not a problem among the
better-educated Hungarians, but then I wouldn't classify most of the Police (at
least the ones I observed) there as well-educated.

As for interracial relationships, well... imagine walking down the street
arm-in-arm with a white woman in Mongomery, Alabama in 1960 and you pretty much
have the picture.

OK, I'll ask.  Tell us how AtG was a fan of Hungarian wines...

--Greg

Greg said in connection with my mentioning that I had to look up five words
in an article by Gyo3zo3 Ma1tya1s:

>After that lead-in, you should've at least listed the five words...  :-)

You are curious about the state of my vocabulary, aren't you? :) So, here
they are: (1) csa1pola1s; (2) megneszu2l; (3) sarabola1s. These were what the
dictionary considered "ne1pies." The fourth, which was designated as
antiquated, literary, was "figyelmez," e.g., "Ha az ember figyelmez a helyzet
ko2vetelme3nyeire." Not terribly difficult to figure out what it could
possibly mean, but it gives you an idea about the Mr. Ma1tya1s's writing
style. The fifth, which was Ma1tya1s's own creation, is "bizarre1ria," a noun
created from the adjective "bizarr."

>> In this situation Ma1tya1s would not

>???

I think he is referring to the early Marxists' demand for eight-hour working
days: eight hours of work, eight hours of leisure time, and eight hours of
sleep.

                    Az MDF sajtotajekoztatojarol...
   Az uj koltsegvetesi torvenyben a javaslat szerint mar fejezetek kozott is
atcsoportosithatja a Kormany - mondta Szabo Ivan
   Nem hatastalan amit az ellenzek elmond - allitotta Konya Imre, hiszen ugy
tunik, hogy  az erofesziteseknek mar lathato az eredmenye. Ennek hatasara
szukseg lesz a valasztojogi vitaban a torvenymodositaskor. Ha mar ez a
valtoztatas elkerulhetetlen, jo volna, ha a koncenzusra valo torekves a tobbseg
reszerol is megnyilvanulna. Tobb esetben egyetertesre jutottak, de a ket
fordulos valasztas eltorleset kedvezotlennek talaljak.
   A parlament munkajanak felgyorsult terhelese olyan kepet vetit a tarsadalom
ele, mintha nagy torvenyhozasi urt kellene hirtelen betolteni.
Veszelyt rejthet magaban az onkormanyzatok cimzett es celtamogatasi
rendszerenek megvaltoztatasa, hiszen ennek volt betudhato a hatranyos helyzetu
kistelepulesek felzarkoztatasa. Az ado 35 szazaleka, a illetekek magas hanyada,
es a gepkocsi adok teljes meghagyasa a telepuleseknek a gazdagabb kozsegeknek,
varosoknak leszkedvezobb. A celtamogatasi torvenyi szabalyozas
igervenyrendszerenek megszunese lehetetlenne teszi az alanyi jog
ervenyesuleset, azt a lehetoseget, hogy a mar elnyert tamogatast, ha a
koltsegvetes nem tudta teljesiteni, a kovetkezo evre atvihettek.
   Kedden este bizottsagi ulesek lesznek, ezen idopont kivetelevel egesz ido
alatt dolgozik a jovo heten a parlament, akar ejszakaba nyuloan is.
Legfeljebb - folytatta Konya Imre - ha mar hagyjak is boven beszelni az
ellenzeket, nem figyelnek oda, legfeljebb hazamennek.
   Szabo Ivan elmondta, hogy o inkabb a Media-hajo utjan vesz reszt
partja kepviseleteben. Mivel az ellenzeki felteteleket teljesitettek, (a
hajon bizottsagokba a partok altal kivant szemelyeknek reszere helyet adtak),
minden parlamenti ellenzeki part kepviselteti magat.
Nagyon sok tapasztalatot szereztek az ellenzek multbeli viselkeseserol mint
kormanyparti kepviselok - vette at a szot Konya Imre - de ok inkabb
   A kultiralis Bizottsag megbizasabol Zsigmond Attila felkereste a Raido
elnoket, aki kerdesere megnyugato valaszt adotte:  arra, hogy a vekielegitesek
osszege  74 millio forint ugynanaz a penz, amit korabban meghagytak.
Az is jo hir, hogy Sziranyi elnok ur nem kivan ujabb valtoztatasokat a
mediatorveny meghozatalaig.
