Office of Bulgarian Populist Party Burns Down Overnight

A blaze has destroyed to ashes the office of populist party "Bulgaria without Censorship" in the southern city of Stara Zagora, the party's press center said Sunday.

The office was opened a only few days ago, personally by party leader and controversial former TV host, Nikolay Barekov.

The party reported that the fire flared at 2 am and burned down the entire building, located in the city's central park.

A firefighter team was immediately sent to the scene, but they were unable to rescue the office. The causes of fire are being probed.

Barekov said that provocations started before Christmas from detractors who tried to stir a debate about the location of the office, claiming that it was an obstacle for people wishing to use the park.

"Bulgaria without censorship" thinks the police and the fire departments failed to do an adequate job and with their inaction have allowed the office in Stara Zagora to burn to the ground.

Moreover, without an expert report and without surveying security cameras around, they were quick to issue a statement that this was not case of arson," Barekov writes in his blog.

In September 2013, Barekov officially quit TV7 and its sister channels, and announced an upcoming political career, suggesting his ambitions reach very high, including the positions of Bulgarian PM or President.

Lol, serves him right. Suck it up princess. Perhaps you can go back to your old job and do a full investigative report on this terrible "accidental" fire.

Barekov was one of the main instigators and cause of the dreadful outcome of the elections last year, when his expose on votebuying was aired on TV during the blackout of political campaigning.

Media empresses swear off technology for the holidays

Overdoing it during the holidays is easy: Theres food galore, drinks you adore and parties that leave you sore.

But three media power players vowed not to go overboard in one area of their lives: technology. Arianna Huffington, president and editor-in-chief of Huffington Post Media Group, Cindi Leive, editor-in-chief of Glamour and Mika Brzezinski, co-host of MSNBCs Morning Joe, teamed up to unplug from their prized phones and slick laptops from Dec. 23 through Dec. 29 (a whole week!).

That meant no checking their e-mails every nanosecond or forging hourly tweets, and skipping their favorite TV shows, online games and social media sites in favor of more time with family and living in the moment.

As with breaking any addiction, these dynamos found it difficult to stay off devices and they had slip-ups but ultimately they felt richer for their experience. Here are their stories, as told to Kathleen Lucadamo:

Founder of Huffington Post Arianna HuffingtonPhoto: Getty Images

My youngest daughter, Isabella, made me lock my four BlackBerrys in a safe, to stop me from constantly checking my phone. The first day of the detox was the hardest, and I reached for my phone too many times to count, but it got easier each day. Instead of texting and e-mailing, I read two books and print newspapers, and worked on the finishing touches of my book, Thrive, about a new way of defining success I call the Third Metric. I dont remember the last time I read and wrote uninterrupted.

We were in Hawaii, and the office was closed for two days which made it easier to unplug but I allowed myself an hour a day to check in when the office was open. Boy, was it hard not wandering onto various Web sites once the computer was on but I knew one hour would quickly morph into six if I didnt control myself. At one point, Isabella, 22, came to talk to me during my online allowance, so I gave myself a few minutes more to make sure I got in my full time. Since my time was so restricted, I didnt answer every e-mail. That was wonderful. I had my out-of-office response plugged in, so no one was offended.

I had pre-programmed inspirational sayings into my Twitter account, but when followers read the feeds, they were upset because they thought Id broken my device-free pledge so I had them stopped.

It was also tough being in this breathtaking place and seeing incredible waves and sunsets, and not being able to share them on Instagram. But instead, I soaked in the beauty. The waves reminded me of the ones I swam in growing up in Greece.

Staying physically active was key to staying away from my devices. I took long walks with my daughters and did yoga. Normally, Id keep my phone nearby, even in yoga class, and sneak peeks at the screen when we switched poses.
