European Journal | The Czech Republic: Celebrities Say it For the EU
The Czech Republic is set to take over the rotating EU presidency from France in January. The eastern European nation is expected to find France's ambitious goals a hard act to follow. It promises to be a difficult six months: President Vaclav Klaus is a notorious EU-sceptic, and the path to the ratification of the EU's Lisbon reform treaty remains strewn with obstacles. Nonetheless, a major advertising campaign has been launched to get the country in the mood, featuring images of famous athletes, models and musicians snapped by well-known photographer Herbert Slavik. Libor Pesek, one of the Czech Republicâs foremost conductors, was among the stars who posed for his camera.

European Journal | Germany: The New Heart of Europe
Ever since Bulgaria and Romania joined the European Union in January 2007,the geographic center of the European Union has been in Germany,in the village of Meerholz in Hessen.

European Journal | Greece - The Secret of the Aged
The name of the Greek Island of Ikaria supposedly comes from Icarus,who crashed to earth on his flight from Crete after flying too close to the sun,which melted the wax on his self made wings. In the Greek civil war Greek communists were often sent to internal exile on Ikaria. Mikis Theodorakis was one of them. But the rocky island still makes headlines today in the eastern Aegean. Every third resident reaches the age of 100. That statistic is unique in the world. The phenomenon has not been explained. Is it to do with the healthy diet...or the philosophy of sigar sigar...take it easy.
