Revolution!

The German is the winner in Shanghai

This was no resurrection, it was a revolution! His first victory in the Formula One championship 1, celebrated Nico Rosberg in the third round of the season, at the Shanghai circuit, taking the maiden win for Mercedes GP as well.

The German pilot, "put" the glasses on... favorites, opening an account in the winnings! Jenson Button climbed to the second step of the podium, while the top three was completed by Lewis Hamilton.

After 110 grand prix Nico Rosberg managed to taste the top champagne at the Chinese Grand Prix. The patience of the German, the previous two years he was rewarded with a competitive car, which gave him his first win and at the same time Mercedes' first win.

The 26-year-old pilot, started from poly position, a position he maintained throughout the race, without being stressed. Michael Schumacher was unlucky in the third round of the season...

The seven-time World Champion, he retired after a mechanical error in the first pit stop.

The German coming out of the pits, he experienced a problem with his rear left wheel which caused him to go off the track.

McLaren consistently good!

For yet another race, McLaren's performance was very good. Initially, Jenson Button had a very good start, as did the other Briton, Lewis Hamilton. In fact, both pilots of the team, they didn't give up, pushing for the best until the last lap.

Button's pace was impressive, who even when he had trouble at his last pit stop, the rear wheel got stuck, causing him to lose places, managed to climb to second place, overtaking Sebastian Vettel.

Numb the "red bulls"

The Red Bull duo took the checkered flag from fourth and fifth place, with Webber passing Vettel on the final lap. The "red bulls" for another grand prix, they were… numb, showing that they cannot compete with McLaren.

However, the World champion's effort was impressive, who from 14th place he fell at the start, managed to place fifth.

The good ones…

In a grand prix that initially the strategy and then the battles of the pilots made it impressive, the Williams drivers stood out. The team looks to have put last year's lackluster season behind them with Senna and Maldonado finishing seventh and eighth, respectively.

The good performances continue at Sauber, with Kobayashi this time representing the team in the top ten.

And the bad guys...

The Ferrari pilots did not manage to renounce their place among the bad guys in China either. Alonso saw the checkered flag from ninth place, while his counterpart, Felipe Massa, placed 13th.

The good performance he had at the beginning of the match, Kimi Raikkonen didn't keep it until the end. The Finn while "holding" second place (until the 50th round), within seconds, dropped to 14th place…

Vasso Laskaraki : How the relationship with Giannis Tsimitselis started;

In an interview with "TV Ethnos" the protagonist of the series "Stolen Dreams" spoke about the crisis, explaining how lucky she feels to have a job at such a difficult time for television, while she also mentioned her relationship with Giannis Tsimitselis.

"Wealth would not play a role in choosing the person who is with me. Definitely not, I do not think so. Nor do they bring happiness, they just make our life easier "commented Vasso Laskaraki, revealing that with her partner of three years, Giannis Tsimitseli "we also share our worries about work and tips for acting". In fact, he added: "I seek the advice of John. If you do not discuss these things with your man, with whom will you discuss them;».

As for their acquaintance: "We met during filming (of “Apartment building”). But it did not happen immediately and it is not that we kept it a secret for a year. It happened a long time later, towards the end of the first season. We met, we realized that we fit in and became a couple. As would happen to two people working together in a supermarket or any workplace. It makes no difference. It has nothing more romantic ".

End, explained why she feels lucky: "I have a job in television and theater at a time when people with more experience in the field than me do not work as well as a large percentage of technical staff.. I feel very lucky ".

Αν και ακόμη δεν ανακοινώνεται επίσημα, το αυτοκίνητο αυτό πιθανόν να αποτελέσει την έκδοση παραγωγής του 5θυρου πρωτότυπου Invitation που είδαμε στην πρόσφατη έκθεση αυτοκινήτου της Γενεύης. Με αυτό το μοντέλο η Nissan στοχεύει να επανέλθει δυναμικά στα μικρομεσαία χατσμπακ.

Dyed red eggs… here and 2.500 years

Because the egg was associated with rebirth and renewal, as early as the 5th BC. century

More than 2.500 years of symbolism for religion have the eggs that these days we dye red and crackle saying "Christ is Risen". Because indeed the egg was associated for millennia with rebirth and renewal, initially in the first days of spring, while it was subsequently adopted as a symbol of Christianity. And this is because the egg lends itself to the mental representation of the cycle of life, which for many plants and animals begins in spring.

The first historical evidence of egg symbolism in religion dates back to 500 B.C. In the Achaemenid period the Persian calendar was influenced by Zoroastrianism and the vernal equinox, the first day of their calendar year, it was a celebration, as we see in a relief from Persepolis (500 e.g.), where nobles are represented holding eggs in their hands. The vernal equinox is celebrated, in fact, even today by dyeing eggs and eating them.

The first one, in any case, attested use of the egg as a Christian symbol is placed in the Roman period. Roman religion, besides, had been greatly influenced by the treatises of Hippocrates, where the hatching of eggs was often referred to in comparison to the birth of humans. In "By the nature of a child", specifically, an infant being born, described in analogy to a little chicken breaking the eggshell.

During the 1st AD. century, the connection of the egg with burials is also found for the first time: In Rome, a child's tomb was found dating back to around 50-175 μ. X. and according to archaeologists, "under the left hand of the buried person there is a hen's egg, which in the funerary context is probably not simply a food offering, but perhaps also a reference to eschatological rebirth".

In the necropolis of the Vatican, moreover, a child was found buried with many gifts, including eggs! And here the excavators believe that the egg was probably a “symbol of rebirth, of a new life that would balance the injustice of an early end".

These two burials perhaps represent early Christian burial customs, as the egg was closely connected with the idea of ​​rebirth and this already from the years of Jesus Christ:Zoe, death, resurrection. As the great religious scholar Nilsson also mentions, "the egg is an apparently living and inert substance containing the possible beginning of a life, and that which has such life-giving power must necessarily awaken or nourish the life-forces of those to whom it is offered.".

Nevertheless, there is not much historical evidence linking the egg to Jesus. In the Bible the references are minimal, according to the orthodox tradition however, Mary Magdalene brought boiled eggs to Jesus' tomb. The eggs, on delivery always, they turned a bright red color, the color of blood, when she saw that Jesus had risen.

Another story tells how, when Mary Magdalene went to the Roman emperor Tiberius to tell him that Jesus had risen, he replied: "As long as Jesus was resurrected, so much so that this egg is red", but as soon as he finished his sentence the egg turned a vivid red color.

The spring, in any case, it is a time of celebration and signifies a new beginning, whether it is the beginning of the year, the liberation from the slavery of Egypt or the resurrection of the Savior.
