Roula Koromilas : "What can I have against Mrs. Menegaki?;»

Roula Koromilas once again expressed her support for Eleni Menegaki, via "Breakfast Mou" show.

Roula Koromilas explained that she is tired of talking about her alleged dispute with the 42-year-old host of the "Elene" show:

“I know the purposefulness of those who engage in these things. And it makes a terrible impression on me all this time that some journalists are asking about a possible "counter". What can I have against Mrs. Menegaki?; First of all, we have two different professional paths. I had another career and I am doing another, very successful, Helen does. I have experienced different things in my personal life and she has experienced other things. It doesn't exist, believe me, but none - not even in the realm of imagination- against. Eleni is currently doing her job wonderfully, it's going very well. All these years it is no coincidence that people follow her. There is absolutely no problem. I like her and will say it again, although I will be graphic: It is a very important value in the field of television".

Virgin- Thanos : The first official appearance and statements after the wedding

Alexandros Parthenis and Katerina Thanou made their first public appearance as a married couple on Tuesday night. The newlyweds attended the play "Finding Atticus" and spoke to the camera of the show "Mourning Mou".

Alexandros Parthenis was very sparing in his statements: "Thank you very much. We'll talk about that or the show;” was enough to comment when journalists wished for the happy event and asked related questions.

His wife, from her side, he said initially: "Thank you very much. We are fine, thank you", while, when asked if they went on a honeymoon, he said: "We have a lot of work to do, but we still find some time".

Their wedding was very sudden and took place away from the public eye: "Yes, we made him. Not for you, it was something for us. Those who should know, they knew it. Some who were very close to us knew it, but it is something very personal and we kept it for ourselves" explained Katerina Thanou, adding that she is very happy. As for the possibility of having a child: "Slowly everything will come! Thank you very much, be well" he said smiling.

Επίσημα το Roding Roadster 23

Μετά το σκίτσο που είχε διαρρεύσει πρόσφατα σχετικά με το Roding Roadster, επίσημα πλέον η εταιρεία παρουσίασε το Roding Roadster 23 λίγο πριν το ντεμπούτο του στη Γενεύη.
Το νούμερο 23 σημαίνει ότι η παραγωγή του εντυπωσιακού μοντέλου θα περιοριστεί σε μόλις 23 points. Όσο για την κατασκευή του, είναι φτιαγμένο από σασί τύπου CFRP (Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastic) και το υπόλοιπο αμάξωμα αποτελείται από ελαφρύ αλλά πολύ ανθεκτικό πολυεστέρα. also, η οροφή, που μπορεί να αφαιρεθεί, είναι κατασκευασμένη και αυτή από CFRP.

Το βάρος του εντυπωσιακού μοντέλου είναι μόλις 950 kilos, ενώ μηχανικά εφοδιάζεται με έναν 6κύλινδρο κινητήρα της BMW που αποδίδει 320 horses and 450 Nm torque. Το μοτέρ του συνδυάζεται με ένα 6τάχυτο μηχανικό κιβώτιο με την κίνηση να μεταδίδεται στον πίσω άξονα με μια… ενδιάμεση στάση από ένα μπλοκέ διαφορικού που περιορίζει την ολίσθηση. The process of 0-100 km / h is completed in 3,9 δλ. και η μέση κατανάλωσή του περιορίζεται στα 8,2 lt./100 km.

Στο εσωτερικό του υπάρχει ένα δερμάτινο σαλόνι με δύο bucket της Recaro και με ζώνες 4ων σημείων. also, το σύστημα πολυμέσων αποτελείται από μια οθόνη αφής 6,1 ιντσών της Alpine με πολλαπλές δυνατότητες. Η τιμή του είναι προς το παρόν ακόμα άγνωστη, ενώ ο χρωματισμός του θα είναι μοναδικός.

Έρχεται η έκδοση παραγωγής του οικονομικού Yaris Hybrid

Στο σαλόνι της Γενεύης 2012 ετοιμάζεται να λανσάρει η Toyota την έκδοση παραγωγής του Yaris HSD Concept που παρουσιάστηκε στην περσινή Γενεύη. Οι πρώτες φωτογραφίες δείχνουν πως η εμφάνιση διατηρεί το δυναμισμό του πρωτοτύπου, με το εμπρός μέρος να διαφοροποιείται αισθητά από το “συμβατικό” Yaris.

Το υβριδικό σύστημα απαρτίζεται από έναν βενζινοκινητήρα 1,5 liter, έναν ηλεκτροκινητήρα και κιβώτιο e-CVT, με τη συνολική ισχύ να φτάνει τους 100 horsepower. Οι τιμές μέσης κατανάλωσης και εκπομπών CO2 πραγματικά εντυπωσιάζουν: 3,5 lt/100 km και 79 g/km αντίστοιχα. Όπως λένε οι Ιάπωνες, το μικρότερο μέγεθος των εξαρτημάτων του συστήματος και η τοποθέτηση της μπαταρίας κάτω από το πίσω κάθισμα, μαζί με το ρεζερβουάρ καυσίμου, συντελούν στη διατήρηση της ευρυχωρίας. Indicatively, το πορτμπαγκάζ παραμένει στα 286 l, όπως των βενζινοκίνητων και diesel εκδόσεων του Yaris, ενώ το συνολικό βάρος του Hybrid Synergy Drive είναι 20% πιο ελαφρύ συγκριτικά με το αντίστοιχο του υβριδικού Auris. Αν και η Toyota δεν ανακοινώνει περισσότερες πληροφορίες, η συγγένεια του Yaris Hybrid με το Prius C που παρουσιάστηκε σε Τόκυο και Ντιτρόιτ μας επιτρέπει να γνωρίζουμε πως υπάρχουν τρία προγράμματα οδήγησης: Normal, Eco, και EV mode.

Στο Eco η απόκριση του γκαζιού και ο κλιματισμός ρυθμίζονται με γνώμονα την καλύτερη κατανάλωση, ενώ το EV δίνει τη δυνατότητα κίνησης αποκλειστικά με ηλεκτρική ενέργεια για πολύ μικρές αποστάσεις (μικρότερες του 1,5 km και με ταχύτητα έως 40 km/h). Η παραγωγή του υβριδικού Yaris θα ξεκινήσει πριν το καλοκαίρι του 2012 και θα γίνεται στο εργοστάσιο Valenciennes της Toyota στη Γαλλία. For now, ο μόνος άμεσος αντίπαλός του είναι το Honda Jazz Hybrid.

Athena

Opeth live in Athens and Thessaloniki

Οι Opeth, modern exponents of progressive, death metal coming in March 2012 in Greece for two concerts on Saturday, March 3 2012, in Block 33, Thessaloniki and on Sunday 4 Of March 2012, at the Fuzz Club, in Athens.

Opeth with me in plain sight, deep and unmistakable roots in the dark romanticism of Scandinavian death metal, with influences from the founders of the hard rock scene Sabbath, Purple & Zeppelin, they relentlessly pursue, for two decades, aesthetic development and perfection and constitute a distinct musical phenomenon.

With crazy doses of technique in their luggage, from 1995 that released their first album (Orchid), they didn't stop experimenting , to evolve, to explore new avenues, establishing with their works the sound of the modern era. Long-winded compositions, metal riffs, rhythmic changes, unparalleled melodies, acoustic passages alternating in perfect balance with brutal death vocals. The band seems to adopt disparate elements between them but, finally, in every work he finds the golden ratio and the albums are impressively homogeneous. Pure musical enjoyment!

In September, that passed us by, Heritage was released, their tenth album.

Until then, we had been "lit with nine stars" – as they themselves depict on the cover of their new album -. Their debut was with Orchid which managed to incorporate unique death metal, black metal, prog rock and folk elements in long, sad compositions that take your breath away. Then came Morningrise which the fanzine Lamentations of the Flame Princess declared "perfect". Followed by My Arms, Your Hearse, which Metal Storm called "a trip to heaven". The concept album Still Life marked their further evolution, while for Blackwater Park, the Village Voice compared them to King Crimson and CMJ called them "a metal union of Pink Floyd and the Beatles". In the next two, Deliverance and Damnation – Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde work together harmoniously and fans perceive them as a double album. With Roadrunner, their new record label, they brought out Ghost Reveries and Watershed and completely captivated us.

At Heritage. ο Mikael Akerfeld, singer, guitarist, lyricist, songwriter and bandleader re-teams with his mentor Steven Wilson, mastermind of Porcupine Tree, presents us with a masterpiece and Opeth establish themselves as a leading force in the prog metal scene with deep roots in death metal. In their latest creation they are more careful, focused and passionate as ever. As Akerfeldt himself comments "Opeth make music that they themselves want to listen to.... with Heritage we feel rejuvenated. We found a new sound that we want to explore further. Let's see where it takes us, which will get us out...".

Opeth is one of the most perfect and dense live bands. Each of their live performances is an auditory delight! We will be rocking with them as loud and brutal as possible on Saturday 3 Of March 2012, in Block 33, in Thessaloniki and on Sunday 4 Of March 2012, at the Fuzz Club, in Athens
