The first images of the new Aprilia Caponord

The first unofficial photos of the new Italian mega on-off are now a fact! Strikingly reminiscent of the flagship RSV4, the new Caponord is expected to be produced in two versions.
The photos you see were taken during the Piaggio Group's annual dealer conference, in Monte Carlo, from the Italian magazine Motociclismo.
The model you see is the more asphalt version of the new Caponord and has cast aluminum wheels 17 inches. According to the Motociclismo website (Motociclismo.it), a "dump" model will also follow, for the most adventurous riders. This will carry spoked wheels with the diameter of the front not exceeding, in any case, them 19 inches. So two versions, with one facing the asphalt and the other playing the role of the all-round model for the new "Capo" in an attempt by the Italian company to satisfy as many riders as possible.
From these first pictures you could tell that the new Caponord is based entirely on the Dorsoduro 1200. However, according to information, κάποια τμήματα του πλαισίου της μοτοσικλέτας έχουν μελετηθεί από την αρχή, ώστε να μη διαταραχθεί η οδηγική συμπεριφορά, εξαιτίας των αναρτήσεων με τις μεγαλύτερες διαδρομές. Διαφορετική είναι φυσικά και η εξάτμιση που έχει μετακομίσει χαμηλά και δεξιά. Οι εμπρός δίσκοι είναι διαμέτρου 320 mm. και συνδυάζονται με ακτινικά τοποθετημένες δαγκάνες, το πιρούνι είναι ανεστραμμένο και ρυθμιζόμενο, ενώ το πίσω αμορτισέρ είναι σχεδόν κάθετα τοποθετημένο στα πρότυπα των υπόλοιπων μοντέλων της εταιρίας που χρησιμοποιούν υβριδικό πλαίσιο (αλουμινένιες πλάκες που συνδυάζονται με ατσάλινο χωροδικτύωμα).
End, στα ηλεκτρονικά συστήματα του νέου Caponord αναμένεται να δούμε τόσο τις τρεις χαρτογραφήσεις για τον ψεκασμό του δικύλινδρου κινητήρα των 130 horses, όσο φυσικά και το σύστημα ελέγχου πρόσφυσης του πίσω τροχού.

Goethe Institute: His Exarchies 2011 in his Berlin 2012

The strict economic austerity measures in Greece, just as the lens of two directors recorded them

 The film "Austerity Measures" (s.s. "Austerity measures") co-written by directors Ben Russell and Guillaume Caillot, selected by the Berlin Film Festival to screen during its 62nd edition (9- 19 February).
 
 The experimental aesthetic film which is a production of the Goethe Institute of Athens itself and the LabA film collective (LaborAthen) will be screened at the Berlinale on Saturday 11 and on Sunday 12 February in the Forum Expanded Section.
It is a "x-ray" of social life in Greece after the repeated austerity measures imposed by the Troika and is focused on the area of ​​Exarchia (the film's working title was 'Exarcheia, Red-Blue-Green»).
Shot in 16mm, the film was created in 5 days in September 2011 during the workshop "Hand over cinema Athens 2011".
Last year, for the first time, the "Hand over cinema Athens" workshop invited Greek and foreign film lovers, professional filmmakers, visual artists, students as well as amateurs to gather in Athens and make hand-made films with the aim of depicting various aspects of the city.
Its world premiere took place at the Institute's auditorium on 13 of last September.
"Austerity Measures" is the fruit of Greek-German cooperation in the field of culture supported by the German Institute of Athens. It is very happy that the creation of a network in the field of cinema has found a response not only in Greece and Germany, but also at an international level.
The film program of the Goethe-Institut Athen will continue its efforts to create a Greek-German film network and thanks all the creators who cooperate and support it.

The BMIin its context general offerof to her moviegoers of Athenswith the cooperation and support of the independent distribution company of selected films New Star and Velissarios Kossyvakis, has established an informal Film Club, every Wednesday at 21:30, with free entry, in his Cinema.

February 2012 Anti – Tribute to Saint Valentine
Away from pink balloons, cards with hearts and bouquets the cities continue indifferently on their course. Cities divided in two, cities wild dark and haunted like the lives of their people, who seek and experience the obsessions of love, the contact, the brief flame of human life, and in the hope of happiness they form their own moral codes. Next to the pink happy ones, sweet pictures, they also project wild images in earthy colors, in sepia and black and white that reveal the secrets, the passions,  the pursuits of people in the eternal pursuit of happiness…
In February, in the month that usually celebrates a saint of lovers, the IMC has chosen and presents films about love that are unconventional, separate, away from hagiographies, even if some of them are dominated by angels, in a instead- tribute to Saint Valentine. Because life has many aspects as well as desires.
In addition and… suddenly, music is playing!
Young people, but also already established,  notable musicians and music students occupy the foyer of the Michalis Kakogiannis Foundation and introduce themselves to the public through small concerts with various types of music. Through this cycle of events they find a platform for expression and present musical prologues for the film screenings of “Wednesdays with Cinema at IMC”,  about half an hour before the start of each screening with free entry for all.
In this context, on Wednesday 22nd and Wednesday 29 February 2012, the audience will have the opportunity to come into contact with musical works of the U. Kotzia, X. Samaras and N. Jiajiu, as well as recent compositions inspired by the film ta “Wings of love” of N. Mavraki, A. Mouzaki and G. Badass.
The works are interpreted by A. Tzigiannis (piano), A. Chaniotis (violin), N. Nikolopoulos (flute), P. Sioras (clarinet), M. Stellius (mandolin).
