Christos Dantes :The sharp statements about his ex-wife

In an interview with EGO Weekly magazine, The Christos Dantes he spoke, among other things, about his marriage to Flora Theodorou, not hesitating to declare that "My previous marriage is a very dark spot in my life".

"Some of my marriages I considered wrong. They were done at the wrong time or should not have been done at all. This is also true in my relationships. There are people in my life who disappointed me a lot and I let them make mistakes in order to see their behavior" he pointed out saying that in the field of personal life he has made several mistakes.

Referring to the period of his divorce with Flora Theodorou, Christos Dantes said that at that time his current half-wife was already pregnant with their child, and then the two received an incredible war: "I was afraid many times that during that period Jenny could lose the child. She didn't show me her fear. I know she was very upset and hurt. What had happened had burdened her. The attacks we received were expected. I knew what kind of people I was dealing with. I just felt an emptiness because I was expecting to be rejected, to be wrong, let things not be so. I also thought this whole story was about a woman who had a child in her womb. This behavior was very ugly and cowardly and masculinity has nothing to do with gender" he concluded.

Now that all that is in the past, he himself declares himself calm and happy - and the return of his 13-year-old son contributes to his happiness (from his marriage to the singer Katerina Topazi) from America. His son lived there with his mother, but now he returns to Greece to live with his father: "I missed my son so much. The last three years have been difficult without my son, because the very happy moments, at the time his sister was born, but also the difficulties we had when Jenny was pregnant, I wanted to have shared them with Christoforos. But this year he will stay here in Greece and I will have him close to me" he concluded

The Roman triliza below Thessaloniki

You imagine a wide road (latitudinal 10 and more meters), layered with thick, heavy marble slabs, bordered by marble curbs and colonnades, and on this road move chariots and pedestrians and animals and soldiers and emperors and…

And on a street corner – of the not so crowded despite the "maximus" of his character – to be engraved, almost artificial, a huge frenzy; Yes, the famous game that is still played today. And... I was thrilled to see Roman soldiers and centurions playing in the middle of the street;

The oversized trill of decumanus maximus (ancestor of today's Egnatia street) was located at the height of today's Agia Sophia street, just a few meters below the pavement of the polypath – and from the subway opening works – Egnatia street and has a diameter of about two meters.
Archaeologists working as part of the excavations to open the subway tunnel have not arrived at the exact dating of the impressive find, as the street on which it was located was allegedly "carved" after the 3rd AD. century and was preserved for at least three centuries later (until the 6th AD).
It is a monumental road of Roman character (decumanus is the Latin term that referred to large streets of Roman cities that were oriented from east to west and were usually decorated at the beginning and end with piazzas). The revelation of the excavations concerns a section of the length of the road 82,5 and width 10 meters.

The "birth" of the street dates back to the 3rd BC. century – when the city was founded by King Kassander. The traces of the ancient Macedonian road are about two meters below the cobbled and obviously wider and more luxurious Roman road that was "built" on top of it around the 3rd AD. century.
For more than four centuries the road, which is re-engraved with the Hippodamian system of town planning, turns into a main thoroughfare of the city.

THE the greatest decumanus of Thessaloniki is paved with thick marble slabs 15 centimeters and is bordered by wide marble curbs 4,7 meters. In its southern part (the northern one was not excavated as it 'approaches the limits of the station pit) the ruins of buildings are preserved, while between the road and the buildings it intervened, as is the case today in cities, dense network of built clay and lead pipes, which served the needs of water supply and drainage. It is even characteristic that the perfectly insulated water supply pipes passed through the sewer pipes without ever leaking. The road changes shape (width, length, use) throughout the centuries. The Roman road, after its earthquakes 620 A.D. and the destruction of many monuments of the city, "narrowing", during the Turkish occupation it became a path again, in the 19th century it is paved with Italian cobblestones and on it are laid the lines of the tram which also passes under the arch of Galerius, as seen in photographs of Thessaloniki from the beginning of the previous year (20uh) century.
The excavation was carried out as part of the archaeological work carried out by the 9th Ephorate of Byzantine Antiquities alongside the work for the opening of the Thessaloniki metro. During the same excavation (jurisdiction of the 9th Ephorate of Byzantine Antiquities) who started it 2007 and continues, a number of mobile finds were uncovered (jewelry, Christian symbols and church utensils, tools etc. of Byzantine Thessaloniki) and hundreds of gold and copper coins.

Bentley's new "green" engines

After they finally went ahead with the design change from the original EXP, its managing director Bentley revealed the "green" engines that the new one is likely to be equipped with SUV.

Recently, the chief executive of Bentley, Wolfgang Durheimer (who is now at Audi) revealed that the British brand is thinking about becoming more "friendly" to the environment, and the way this could be achieved was by equipping their future models with diesel and hybrid engines. It is assumed that for a start it will borrow the V8 diesel engine of the "sister" company – Audi- which yields 406 horsepower.

Durheimer in an interview also mentioned that they will do away with their V8 engine 6,75 liter (512 hp/1020 Nm torque) and will be replaced with a new V12. End, regarding the engines of the new SUV, it is expected that some of the new diesels or hybrids will be used, while the model will be based on a Volkswagen platform.
