		<description><![CDATA[The number of example cases are growing, Faliron, Goudi, Villa Zographou and more. Cases of ordinary citizens taking matters into their own hands when local government has failed them.

		<description><![CDATA[The Athens anti-racism festival is happening right now and it&#8217;s being held in Goudi park, right across the street from where we live. Some of you may already know I&#8217;m involved in campaigning against commercial developments in Goudi Park and as such we were offered a booth and projection screen at the festival. First off, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I say coincidentally because, I went by their offices today and complained about their site not being available for the past year or so. I&#8217;ve recently moved to Zografou and have often needed to talk to someone at the council for various things.

		<description><![CDATA[I applied for CableTV on the 15th of March &#8211; given current rumors I can expect to be connected around 4 months from now. Any complaints are futile. The irony is that I&#8217;m posting from a shared wireless connection I&#8217;m on through Vivodi. Am I being selfish? Perhaps. Let me counter with this. Vivodi charge [...]]]></description>
