Hungarian schools dump MS Office.
Hungary's public administrations will by default use open document standards for their electronic documents, as of April this year, the government ministers agreed on 23 December, and all public organisations are encouraged to move to open source office tools. Hungary's government also in December decided to cancel the funding of proprietary office suite licences for all schools.

New Budapest statue reveres (or ridicules?) Reagan.
While Vice Prime Minister Zsolt Semjén organized a Ronald Reagan lovefest for the unveiling of the Gipper's statue at Szabadság tér ("Freedom Square") last week, where those in attendance heard about how the former American president defeated communism single-handedly, with an arm behind his back and his shoelaces tied together, no one saw fit to mention the other, much bigger statue on the site.
The location for the Reagan statue makes logical sense given its proximity to the US Embassy, but as you can see in the picture above, the statue is actually looking at the Monument to Irony, not the embassy itself.
Now, is this simply a foreshadowing of how in life Reagan took on the Soviet Union, while in death, his statue will take on and "defeat" the Soviet War Memorial? It would certainly count toward his well-awaited canonization by America's Republican Party.
