Editorial

By M&M

Just the perfect day...

Starting to write this editorial feels so good. After a nine-hour beauty-sleep, life is just easier.

As there is so little to do, we often sneak up to the penthouse based printing machine just to get some excitement.

The printing machine is our best friend. The best thing about this friend is that we communicate so well; we speak the same language. Needless to say the Russian “easy-to-read” manual has come in handy. Signs of affection are exchanged both day and night and we are especially amused by the many jokes it writes during its flows of creativity.

The printer is by far not our only friend here in Kyiv. Someone we would like to see more of is the multiplicator plug. Our initial greeting with this wild little fellow was a big, energetic spark of affection. We are very thankful for the romantic setting it brought to the pressroom; a cozy hour without light for the entire house! The whole event was provided for the price of only one computer cable - a small sacrifice compared to the large amount of darkness it provided and after all, who needs lap-tops?

The most amazing thing about being here is that everything has worked out exactly as we planned.

NICK’s We have made all the meals, thus it does NAME Michel Hochstasser (CH) M not matter that the pizza we ordered is Martin Flatö (NO) M delayed.

Life is good.

Opening Ceremony

By Daredevil and Superman

Stampede brings Kyiv to a standstill.

With each of the participants in all of their finery, the entire session descended upon the exquisite National Hall of Philharmonics of Ukraine in the Kyiv city centre. The sense of occasion was like wildfire through the air, destroying the memory of the obscenely early wake. The singers, of the choir, each possessed a voice, which lifted the buried passions within all who had

taliy Shybko, who stated that working closely with youth organisations such as the EYP is of vital importance for the future of Ukraine.

Another issue was highlighted by Mr Borys Tarasyuk: the importance of connecting the future of Ukraine to the EU and NATO. He explained how the geographically strategic position of Ukraine is one of the many reasons why Ukraine should be a member of the EU. According to the inspiring words of Ian Boag, young people in Europe must realise that “what we have in common is more than what

divides us�. Great faith lies on the shoulders of all EYPers to lay the ground upon which a strong and united Europe, free from all prejudice, can be built.

The Youth is the Future

By Tarzan and Cleopatra

We spotted Ruslana Lyzhychko after the Opening Ceremony where we managed to exchange some words. Warm and friendly, she was more than happy to talk to us.

What do you think is the main problem the youth of Ukraine is facing today?

During my recent visit to the Kyiv Toras Shevchenko University, I asked the students whether they think that the government should increase their grants. They replied ‘Just give us work, and we will get the money’. This shows

Committee Presentations

By Jane of the Jungle

“Thank you for your violent outburst” AFCO This is how the delightful evening of committee sketches began. Nobody knew what to expect when they heard those 4 memorable words on Sunday; cold, kiss, kiosk and Babushka. Few even knew what on earth a Babushka was at that point!

Yet, before dinner, we had seen 15 different interpretations of precisely this.

All 15 committees greatly entertained us, yet as per usual, the journalists caused more trouble by presenting themselves and, more importantly, thee box! They shared the tale of the history and religious background to the box and the rituals (such as kissing, of course) associated with it. Now it is up to you to continue the tale.

The Palace of Journoville

By Jane of the Jungle

The land of Journovia is granted a grand new Palace…and a dictatorship?

As you are probably all aware, the press team have recently proclaimed the new land of Journovia. Since arriving in our new accommodation on Monday afternoon, this Republic has acquired a palace!

With a pressroom located only seconds away from the sleeping area, which hosts up to four journos in every beds, no one can escape untimely meetings of the press team.

Fighting the Everlasting Smoke

By Caesar & Cleopatra

“There seems to be an everlasting smell of smoke“. These calm words by Stanislav Beletskiy (RU) gave an arabic twist to the committee work location, fitting the Middle East topic of the committee The dimly lit 5th floor lobby apparently even put some mysterious spell on the committee. For example, Jemmi

mander (SE) and Phillip Neal (UK), felt encouraged to show their great knowledge of the matter and considerable rhetorical skill.

The magical flow they all started to get wound up in, however, threatened the efficiency of brainstorming. Thus Rantanen (FI), daydreamed: after a while, Eric Katskovski „Corridor is such a pretty (EE, Chair) had to step in and word...“. Others, like Neoclis restrict the length of their Neocleous (CY), Henrik Ni- contributions.

But even to this, the magical lobby on the 5th floor offered its very own solution: Slowly, water began dripping from the ceiling, refreshing the members of AFET II. At the end of a long and intense afternoon, it was Xavier Cardoso (PT) who summed up what everyone felt, glancing at the next brainstroming sheet which was handed to him: „Stop bringing me these! [...] AAH, take it back!“ Water, smoke and a hot topic; October 16th was indeed an eventful day for AFET II.

Cold weather?

So what!

By Juliett

The cold weather makes people unite against the fierce weather forces.

Feeling cold? Let us solve the problem.

First of all, cold weather makes you think about the Christmas holiday, with family reunions and joyful moments. And an EYP session is not much different; lots of gatherings with your big European family, neatly decorated due to national traditions.

As you all know, Kiev is an important European city, with big shops. So, if you do not have warm clothes, go shopping! As girls [and Danny (vice president, IT) – Ed.] love shopping, the temperature is the perfect excuse for spending the time allocated for visiting Kiev on this.

Still freezing? By now, shouting out “COLD!” should instantly makes you warmer, getting overrun by kissers.

Talking about this icy subject, the cold weather gave Pennie Douligeris (delegate, GR) a great advantage; the boys from the Irish delegation offered her their shirts and pullovers, leaving them running around in the rain half naked. What a show for Pennie!

No reason to be moody; enjoy the COLD! Issue 2: page

Revenge!

By Marge

If you found that during committee work there are periods when you felt frustrated with other group members, here are 10 great ways to take revenge: 1. Never pay attention to other people’s arguments. Consider yourself as the smartest.

2. If you are a native speaker, speak as fast as possible. If not, take advantage of your home country’s accent for colourful intonation exercises.

3. Never give a reason when saying “no” to other peoples’ ideas.

4. Always throw yourself to the ground and shake madly when somebody is about to make a point.

5. Never listen to organisational announcements, ask again right after they were

explained.

6. Always drop your pen and

tend you do not know what it is about and don’t agree no more.

8. As important as you are, it would be wrong to ever turn off your mobile phone.

So don’t stop having your friends send you messages all the time.

9. Do not pay attention when your topic is introduced, preferably tell your fellow delegates that you have misunderstood the topic by wednesday night at the earlishout “crap” when you are est. about to loose an argument. 10. Do not brush your teeth 7. If your group is comes clos- in the morning and secretly er to the end of a very long fart in small and stuffy comand straining argument, pre- mittee rooms.

Love offer!

By Elektra

The love IS spreading In the welcoming issue of “KIS & tell”, the readers were urged to spread their love.

To our delight, it seams as if some of you have really taken this task seriously. It has come to “KIS & tell”’s attention that gift vouchers offering “one night of passion” have been distributed by a certain gentleman. When an undercover journalist tried to cash in her gift voucher earlier today, she was greeted with enthusiasm.

Inspired by this initiative, the pressroom has decided

Issue 2: page 12

to distribute a gift voucher of their own…

Cash the voucher in by cutting it out and handing it to one of the journos.

SEDE saves the world!

By Julliet

As the time is flying by, the delegates from the SEDE committee have started the plan for the global rescue mission.

Anatole France once said: “To accomplish great things, we must not only act, but also dream, not only play, but also believe”.

The delegates from SEDE know that.

Armed with intelligence and believing in their success, the newly builded team started to discuss on its topic.

The first thing that attracted the attention in this committee was the word “lemon”. Having an original idea, they decided to introduce as a rule the shouting of the “lemon” whenever they

don’t reach a compromise.

Fortunately, they did not have the chance to use it too often.

As a break from the formal atmosphere, the committee engaged itself in the ”bibilibo”game. During the course of the game, Bram Vogels (BE) got so familiar with the elephant’s pantomime that he almost started to grow a natural trunk.

Meet Doctor Love

By The Journos

Picture a dark room. The only thing moving is a cigarette, reaching the lips of a wine- breathed mouth. Phil Collins’ “Best Of” can be heard at the background. His long, wavy hair shines by the moonlight dashing through the window - Doctor Love reports: Fellow creatures in the never-ending quest for love and passion, heed my words! Do not follow my prescription, and you shall forever be lonely.

This session offers a chance for you to uncover new sides of yourself. Sometimes we have to sacrifice certain taboos in order to be true to who we are. Carpe Diem dear readers. Apply it!

When you see that beautiful someone walking down the road, stop them. Talk to them; say something. Life is made up of these little challenges. Release yourselves to the unknown by answering the call of your inner passion as it craves to escape. With every opportunity that you forego, the more unobtainable they become.

Probably the majority of you like somebody at this session. Yet, with little time remaining, you should act immediately. GO to that person now. Do not even finish reading this article!

Say something, because if you do not, you will end up regretting it for a very long time. You have nothing to lose, yet all to gain.

Yours truly, Dr. Love PS: You can now communicate with your local doctor through the KIS Box and have him answer your questions!

Babushka!

By Lois Lane & Homer

Grandmothers make lovely borsch Babushkas have lately been a hot topic amongst the participants of KIS06. But what exactly is such a granny? “KIS & tell” went on a mission to uncover the features that makes the perfect babushka.

Two of our journalists set off into the crowds bombarding random victims with a handful of questions on their stereotype grandma.

Frantisek Juzl (CZ) and Roman Novacek (CZ) pointed out the necessity of her walking with a stick, identifying all the mushrooms in the forest.

In Jimmy Zacharias’ (GR) perspective, a real Babushka “picks her nose with a cigarette in her hand”. We do not know what memories Alexandru Pal (RO) has of his grandmother, but a granny

should have much facial hair and wear a baseball cap.

After a short period of thinking, a committee a r -

gued that the perfect grandmother should wear a scarf, be slightly hunchbacked and as Jack Lidholm(IE) pointed out, she should still have “an air of mysterious sexiness”. She must also be able to prepare fatty homemade meals [a romantic dinner? – Ed.] Further mentions stated: a grandma must be able to make a great borsch, knit well and

give money to her grandchildren even if they do not need it.

Thee One-and-Only Technique

By Tarzan and Romeo

Hey boys! Sick of being torn apart by the girl of your dreams? Here we are to help you out!

Tarzan comes from high up north, so he is shy and gets rejected by girls often; and Romeo was so passionate that he also got rejected thousands of times. Thus both fail because of the wrong technique. The easy cure is to be found in “Thee One-and-Only Technique: 100% efficacy guaranteed”.

Just follow the instructions tightly, and Dr. Love will make you rock.

1st Step

You move your finger from one side of the shoulder to the middle, and then to the other side saying: “Did you know that the distance between here and here is the same as between here and here?” Then, you always repeat the sentence with the distance, but change the movement with it.

2nd Step

Move your finger from her wrist to her fingers, and then you grab her hand.

3rd Step

Say: “Kiss me if I’m wrong, but aren’t you American?” (Got it?)

4rd Step

From the eyebrows to the nose and to the lips, caressing them in a sweet way.

5th Step

From one side of the chest to the middle and then to the other side.

Issue 2: page 16

Printed on Konica Minolta

6th Step

From the neck down to the belly-button, not to forget to stop in the middle.

7th Step

Tell her: “For me, every woman is a single world.” Take her hand and gently kiss it.

8th Step

Finally you kneel down, catch her eyes with yours, take her hand, and then start singing: “I hope you don’t mind (x2), that I put down in words… How wonderful life is, now you’re in the world” By the time you reached step 8, you have already made her melt, believe us! [even Estonians - Ed.]

Thee Box Uncovered part two

By M

• • • • • •

­­­ Why did the teachers eat the delegates lunch?

“Jetez les vaches!” is, actualy, the new motto of the ECON committee (typing and comma mistakes included) The journo team was busy too and bonded very well with the organisers, right Katja and Ivar?

JP is hot Ance and Klara, what has happened in London? and many more...

Plus, Finn Hanrahan (chair, IE) still has not found his bags. Thus, the poor fellow walked around with the same underwear he wore on his trip over to Kiev last wednesday. Which means that this underwear can very well be from monday or sunday night. To put an end to this cruel situation, “KIS & tell” calls for donations. Apparently “beggars are choosers” and pink ones are preferred.

Gossip Corner

By Romeo and Marge

We have milked thee box this morning Delegates have taken Dr. Love’s advice seriously. Cuckoo - read the newest gossip.

Katrhyn Peery from the rainy British Islands and Eric Kynast from frosty Norway seemed to have found a way to warm each other. Maybe that is why the sun visited the Ukraine today?

The Finnish twins apparently have had their fun with two British guys, swapping back and forth between the two of them without them noticing. At least it stays in the family.

Delegates could not hide their surprise over JP (president, DE) dancing at the EYP café and actually looking good at it.

Organiser Vova (UA) has been uncovered kissing Shamal’s (organiser, UK) finger. [the question is which one - Ed.] Amour en français and latvian. There is something hot going on between Stéphane Renevier (CH) and Marie-Alix Grisolet (FR).

An anonymous Latvian-lover dropped a note stating that Ance Kaleja (chair, LV) was the every-night dream of all the male delegates.

While everybody loves Joe Flannery (journo, UK) – do keep in mind that the journo girls can be very jealous creatures – Hadrien Segond (organiser, DE) fell in love with the printing machine. Apparently he spent all night with it. (Come and get yourself a cookie!)

Adeniran Haastrup (UK) was dancing like mad with Olga Lishko (organiser, UA), but also had the pleasure of uncovering Cecilie Skaeveland Torjusen’s (delegate, NO) unusual peeing habits: “I usually pee everywhere and sing along. But if the police catches you in Norway, it will get really expensive”. Luckily, Ade allowed her to use his bathroom.

Party Animals

By Marge and Juliett

The hard today did not put a lit on the pulse of mondaz evenings party Love is in the air. The adorable organiser team got the party moving by handing out cute heart and “Kiss me” stickers, thus spreading love and warmth amongst the delegates. While most people were freely handing them out, Vassia Anastissiou (GR) was more selective; “I did not want to give my heart to anybody, so I gave it to Kostas Emmanuil[Chair, GR].”

As the party continued, the enthusiastic warmth was put off, during which we were witnessing the battle between two different songs - “The Final Countdown” versus “Funky Chicken”. Some delegates obviously strongly wanted the “Funky Chicken” to win, as they would not stop flapping their arms.

In spite of the chilly weather, the party continued until it got so hot that the crowd could not stand the heat anymore...
