KATERINA PAPUTSAKI : "I want to adopt a child"

Katerina Papoutsaki, in a recent interview with "HELLO" magazine, talked about the possibility of becoming a mother soon through adoption.

"At the moment I only think about the idea of ​​the child in theory. I would definitely like to be a mom at some point and I hope I do. I continue to consider adoption as a possible scenario even though I know it is a very difficult and time-consuming process in Greece. Since I was little I said that even if I had one child I would try to adopt the second one, because I would like to offer a better life to a child and raise him equally with my biological one", he says characteristically.

FlexFix: Μεταφορά έως και 4 bicycles

Το αναβαθμισμένο σύστημα μεταφοράς ποδηλάτου FlexFix 2ης γενιάς μπορεί να μεταφέρει μέχρι 4 ποδήλατα ταυτόχρονα και διατίθεται για τα Astra Sports Tourer και Zafira Tourer.
Το καινοτόμο σύστημα της Opel είναι ενσωματωμένο στον πίσω προφυλακτήρα και προσφέρει άνεση στη μεταφορά ποδηλάτων για μεγαλύτερη απόλαυση στις διακοπές ή σε αποδράσεις στην εξοχή με συγγενείς ή φίλους. also, προσφέρει μία σειρά καινοτομιών σε συνδυασμό με αυξημένη ικανότητα μεταφοράς φορτίου. Το πρώτο και το δεύτερο ποδήλατο μπορούν να ζυγίζουν μέχρι 30 kg το καθένα (αντί 20 kg όπως ίσχυε μέχρι τώρα).Αυτό διευκολύνει τη μεταφορά ηλεκτρικών ποδηλάτων που αποκτούν όλο και μεγαλύτερη δημοτικότητα, αν και αρκετά βαρύτερα.

Στο πλαίσιο του FlexFix δεύτερης γενιάς διατίθεται τώρα κιτ προέκτασης με αντάπτορα που κουμπώνει για τη μεταφορά δύο ακόμα ποδηλάτων βάρους 20 kg το καθένα. Η συνολική ικανότητα μεταφοράς φορτίου είναι 80 kg. Ειδικές βάσεις με ελαστικά ένθετα συγκρατούν με ασφάλεια τα ποδήλατα στη θέση τους. Επιπλέον το νέο σύστημα σχάρας κλειδώνει ώστε τα ποδήλατα να προστατεύονται από τους κλέφτες όταν το όχημα είναι σταματημένο. Ένα ακόμα σημαντικό επιχείρημα πωλήσεων του συστήματος FlexFix δεύτερης γενιάς είναι ότι ακόμα και με πλήρες φορτίο επιτρέπει το άνοιγμα της πίσω πόρτας, παρέχοντας άμεση πρόσβαση στο χώρο αποσκευών.

Women also fought in ancient times

This shows the bronze statuette of a female figure in the Museum fur Kunst und Gewerbein

Not only men fought in Roman antiquity, but also the women and even with the same weapons! At least this is what the bronze statuette of a female figure shows, located at Museum of Art and Industry, in Hamburg and now under new study is now considered, that she was a female gladiator.

With long groomed hair and wearing only a loincloth, that is, bare-breasted, this woman is represented with one hand raised holding the gladiators' small curved sword _sicca_ and seems to be celebrating a victory. Her head turns to the ground _looking perhaps at the defeated opponent; _ while her knee is bandaged again, as gladiators used to do. So until today the small statue was considered to depict an athlete. In particular, the sword was interpreted as a string (the instrument of athletes for scraping from their bodies, of the powder and oil with which they anointed the skin). The different view comes from researcher Alfonso Manas of the University of Granada, which lists the data:

First of all, this is only the second depiction of a female gladiator, which is known to us. The other one, which is in the British Museum comes from a relief of Halicarnassus. And this rarity, as Manas says perhaps also indicates the rarity of the phenomenon. As far as the written sources are concerned, only twelve records exist, referring to female gladiators. All of them were of low social class, i.e. slaves, therefore their breasts remained uncovered, contrary to, what was going on with the gymnasts. One more thing is, that about 200 μ. X. under Septimius Severus, their presence in the arenas was banned.

There is, however, a problem _as far as this particular statuette is concerned_ with the fact, that female gladiators must also have worn various protective gear on their bodies, depending on the men. That is, helmets, chest or shoulder fittings etc. But the gladiator of Hamburg, it doesn't bring anything, not even her helmet and this causes the researchers to be surprised. Another parameter besides, which they themselves raise regarding her nudity is the attempt to arouse eroticism in the militarily raised Romans, who would thus have the opportunity to see women in traditionally male roles. However, the sources do not mention anything of the sort, rather than just the expression of admiration for the "fair competition" of women as well.
