Eugenia Manolidou: Everybody writes,What do they think

The response to negative reviews

For the recent article that called her "Madame Soussou", Evgenia Manolidou spoke to the Star camera.
"Everyone writes what,What do they think. I don't think I have given rights to be characterized like that, but what to do; I imagine if I wasn't like that they wouldn't even write. And if they didn't write, maybe I didn't exist. So one works for the other", said the musician and presenter.

As for her eventual return to television with "Greece has talent", Eugenia Manolidou reported: "It's still early. We will see what will happen with Greece, it has talent. I've heard a lot. A discussion has taken place, but nothing more. We'll see. There are many parameters for an agreement".

Responding to the rumors that wanted her to enter politics, he stated: "I have not been offered such a proposal, but a statesman at home arrives and is surplus to requirements. I'm not that good at it. More capable people are needed for these positions".

Notis Sfakianakis : The new attack on the country's politicians


His angry reaction to the fact that Michalis Chrysochoidis and many other ministers, they have not studied the text of the Memorandum, expressed Notis Sfakianakis speaking to the camera of the show "Mourning Mou".
"For too many years we have done incredible nonsense. I am referring to the people, to the people who inhabit the land of the Greeks. We have made incredible mistakes and are now trying to solve our problems from one moment to the next, something that cannot be done. I have never participated in the election game before. I am 52 years and I never participated, because from a very young age I realized that what is happening around me is fake and fake. These guys should have walked away from all of this, because the world should have driven them out many years ago. They are immoral, you don't understand it; They are stupid! It's possible to say you stupid guy, that you did not read the Memorandum, which has put all the people inhabiting this country- their children and great-grandchildren- in prison; Things are serious! Cast out all those who oppress you. They are fascists who rule," said the well-known singer.

His Mercedes 1955 sold for 4,62 from. dollars!

Auctions abroad often present surprises. This time our interest is located in a Mercedes SL 1955 which was sold at auction for the legendary sum of 4,62 million dollars.
The Gooding Auction Company & Company's Scottsdale in Arizona, USA often has special and very expensive models on the market. But this time it seems that he surpassed all previous ones, after "finding" a buyer for a historic Mercedes last weekend 300 SL Alloy Gullwing. The "customer" who acquired it, apparently this is a maniacal collector, spent the fabulous amount of 4,62 million dollars to make her his. The truth is that this particular model is highly collectible. Mercedes only built it in 29 units and the manufacturing cost was initially very high since the car body is made entirely of aluminum, material expensive to car manufacturers even today.
In this particular auction, a Ferrari also attracted intense interest 250 His GT LWB California Spider 1959 which was priced and sold at approx 4 million dollars.

Electric Supermoto is recommended by KTM

KTM may be taking small and careful steps into the electric market with the Freeride E, a lot, Nevertheless, they are the ones who recommend her new electric models!
As we know, KTM will start making the Freeride E available in limited numbers in the 2012, so that these can be tested and developed. Company officials spoke about the possibility, in case KTM's first electric model proves successful, to expand the range of electric motors, with dirt and asphalt models.
Who, Nevertheless, he is willing to wait until then; As it seems, certainly not Piers SP of Kiska Designs, who designed an electric supermoto for KTM, το KTM SMX-E! Naturally, this is just a design and KTM has nothing to do with it, however, no one complains! According to Piers himself, "it's just a bike I would love".
At bottom, even if KTM's Freeride E succeeds in its purpose and the KTM folks go ahead and mass produce it, it will be a long time before we officially see an asphalt electric model from KTM. Thanks to Piers' design, we'll have something to fool around with until then.

This is the new VW Passat VIII

The future VW Passat takes the unguarded pass into the area (see. MQB platform) alone in front of the goalkeeper, he is getting ready to score with ease in the middle goal!

With a glance
– The 7th generation VW Passat
– Lighter and on a new platform
– With even more economical engines
– And in a hybrid version
– Present it 2014
With the middle class receiving suffocating pressures from Crossovers, MPVs and SUVs, showing worldwide reduced shares in its sales, it is a given that from now on, representatives of the species will have to fight hard to preserve the achievements. And if many turned to the solutions that aesthetically combine the traditional 4-door body of the category with the more modern shape of the coupes (see Opel Insignia), others, like VW and Passat, persist traditionally. Nevertheless, from 2014 and the 8th consecutive new generation of the Passat, this will change. So the new German medium, as you can also see in our exclusive spy digitally edited photos, it will bring a sharper and more dynamic design than the current Passat. We highlight the news in the front section, long narrow lights and the raised hood with the strong ribs, but also the new horizontal shoulder that runs from end to end of the body. In the back section, this shoulder abuts on sharper and smaller sized fixtures, which also contribute to the general modernization of the car.
The new MQB platform also present in the Passat

But apart from the design, many and perhaps more important news comes under the body of the new Passat. The big star here is the VW Group's new MQB platform, which as we have said before, will be the main protagonist of all the companies of the group for the next few years. So this passe-partout floor, which we will know this year through the new generations of VW Golf-Audi A3-SEAT Leon, it will form the basis on which the next Passat will be built. A big advantage of this platform is its adaptability to a range of models of different dimensions, with the Passat being the largest of those to receive it, thus maintaining similar dimensions to the current model (B.C. length close to 4,8 m.). Nevertheless, despite this fact, this new platform will reward the car with a lower weight (about -50 with 75 kg only from the floor), with immediate benefits in consumption, performance etc.
What about the engines?;

There is quite a bit of movement in the engine sector, since an upgraded range of TSI and TDI engines is being prepared by VW. To the first ones, the new versions will now have a standard start/stop system and the selections will start again from 1,4 l, but with upgraded power (130 and 150 PS). For the TDIs, in view of the new Euro6 standard for their emissions, we expect even more ecological motor options 1,6 and 2,0 liter. Anyway, especially in the ecological part, the new Passat, for the first time in history, it will get a hybrid version with the possibility of charging from an outlet (plug-in), with performance close to 170 horsepower and exclusively electric drive for distances up to 50 km.
