Politics Can Be Different
Politics (from , ) is the set of activities that are associated with making decisions in groups, or other forms of power relations among individuals, such as the distribution of resources or status. The branch of social science that studies politics and government is referred to as political science. It may be used positively in the context of a "political solution" which is compromising and nonviolent, or descriptively as "the art or science of government", but also often carries a negative connotation.. The concept has been defined in various ways, and different approaches have fundamentally differing views on whether it should be used extensively or limitedly, empirically or normatively, and on whether conflict or co-operation is more essential to it. A variety of methods are deployed in politics, which include promoting one's own political views among people, negotiation with other political subjects, making laws, and exercising internal and external force, including wa ...

Church Of Our Lady Of Sarlós
The Church of the Blessed Virgin Mary is a historic Roman Catholic church in Újlak, in the Budapest II district of Hungary. History Above its main entrance is a Latin inscription (CREATORI 1705 CREATURA) announcing the year the parish was founded. The current building was erected between 1746 and 1766 by Kristóf Hamon and Máté Nöpauer. The main altar was designed by Kristóf Hickisch and inaugurated in 1799. The bell tower, designed in the middle of the main façade, had to be demolished in 1765 due to a static defect, and the tower to the south side was replaced. The top had to be renovated twice due to elemental disasters (a rainstorm in 1875). Its present form was given by Miklós Ybl in 1877. It was then that it gained the eclectic look it has today. It was renovated in 1957-1960 and again in 1997. Church interior Underneath the triple arch line, which holds the organ gallery, is the one-nave interior covered with three vaults. In terms of proportions and layou ...
