Θοδωρής Μαραντίνης: Όσα δήλωσε για τη Σίσσυ Χρηστίδου

O Θοδωρής Μαραντίνης μίλησε στην κάμερα της εκπομπής “Breakfast Mou”, λίγο πριν την πρεμιέρα των εμφανίσεων των Onirama στην Αθήνα.

Ο frontman του δημοφιλούς ελληνικού συγκροτήματος αναφέρθηκε στην απουσία της συζύγου του, Σίσσυς Χρηστίδου, από την πρεμιέρα λέγοντας: «Σήμερα δεν μπόρεσε να έρθει, κάποια άλλη στιγμή όμως», ενώ για την καθημερινότητά της εκτός τηλεοπτικών πλατό πρόσθεσε: «Η αλήθεια είναι πως φέτος τη χαίρομαι περισσότερο. Εμένα μου αρέσει πάρα πολύ, γιατί περνάμε πολύ περισσότερο χρόνο μαζί, αλλά περνάει και πολύ περισσότερο χρόνο με το παιδί, που κάθε παιδί θέλει να έχει τη μαμά του όσο το δυνατόν περισσότερο στο σπίτι».

In fact, πάνω στο ίδιο θέμα, ο Θοδωρής Μαραντίνης συμπλήρωσε: «Χαίρομαι που είχαμε αυτή τη δυνατότητα, γιατί επαγγελματικά στηρίζει μια καμπάνια και σαν οικογένεια μας έρχεται το ίδιο (s.s. εννοώντας τις οικονομικές απολαβές της Σίσσυ Χρηστίδου) και μας δίνει τη δυνατότητα να περνάμε περισσότερο χρόνο μαζί», while he emphasized: «Νομίζω πως αυτή τη στιγμή δεν της λείπει η τηλεόραση, είναι πολύ ευτυχισμένη».

H… Cross view of the VW up!

THE VW δίνει στη δημοσιότητα τις πρώτες επίσημες εικόνες του Cross up!, της νέας, ιδιαίτερης εκδοχής του γερμανικού σούπερ μίνι, που θα λανσαριστεί μέσα στο καλοκαίρι του 2013.
Το νεότερο μέλος τηςοικογένειας Cross, με αισθητικές πινελιές από οχήματα ελεύθερου χρόνου, είναι το σούπερ μίνι up!, για το οποίο είχαμε πάρει ουσιαστική πρόγευση στη διεθνή έκθεση της Φρανκφούρτης, the 2011. Όπως επιβεβαιώνεται από τις πρώτες επίσημες φωτογραφίες, το μοντέλο παραγωγής έχει ελάχιστες διαφορές στις λεπτομέρειες, από το πρωτότυπο Cross up!

Το μοντέλο παραγωγής θα κάνει επίσημη πρεμιέρα στο Σαλόνι Αυτοκινήτου της Γενεύης, στις αρχές Μαρτίου και θα λανσαριστεί μέσα στο καλοκαίρι του 2013, σε τιμές που ξεκινούν, για τη γερμανική αγορά, from the 13.925 euro. Τι αυτοκίνητο βασίζεται πάνω στο πεντάθυρο up! και διαθέτει αυξημένη απόσταση από το έδαφος κατά 15 millimeters, με μαύρα προστατευτικά πλαστικά περιμετρικά και ασημένια διακοσμητικά, όπως οι αντίστοιχες εκδόσεις Cross, των άλλων μοντέλων της μάρκας (Cross Polo, Cross Touran κ.ο.κ). Φορά 16άρες ζάντες αλουμινίου, με ελαστικά διαστάσεων 185/50, ενώ οι ράγες στην οροφή να είναι βαμμένες σε ασημί χρώμα.

Στο εσωτερικό υπάρχουν νέες επενδύσεις στα καθίσματα σε γκρι ή κόκκινο χρώμα, καθώς και νέοι χρωματικοί συνδυασμοί στο ταμπλό. Το τιμόνι είναι δερμάτινο, όπως και ο επιλογέας των ταχυτήτων και η λαβή του χειρόφρενου. Οι αλλαγές ολοκληρώνονται με τα χρωμιομένα διακοσμητικά.

Κάτω από το καπό, συναντάμε τον γνώριμο τρικύλινδρο 1.000άρη κινητήρα απόδοσης 75 ίππων που συνδυάζεται με 5τάχυτο χειροκίνητο κιβώτιο, το οποίο στέλνει τη κίνηση στους μπροστινούς τροχούς.

Here is the Picasso replacement

THE Citroen δίνει στη δημοσιότητα τα πρώτα στοιχεία για το πρωτότυπο Technospace, που θα κάνει πρεμιέρα στη Γενεύη και πάνω στο οποίο θα βασιστεί η νέα γενιά των πολυμορφικών της φίρμας.
Με τα Xsara Picasso, C4 Picasso, Grand C4 Picasso και C3 Picasso, η Citroen κατάφερε να δημιουργήσει τη δική της σχολή στην κατηγορία των πολυμορφικών μοντέλων. Με περισσότερα από 3.000.000 μονάδες της οικογένειας των Picasso να έχουν περάσει στην παραγωγή, η γαλλική φίρμα ανοίγει ένα νέο κεφάλαιο στην κατηγορία με το πρωτότυπο Technospace.

Τα κύρια χαρακτηριστικά του Technospace:

• Εξαιρετικά χαμηλά επίπεδα κατανάλωσης και ρύπων (98γρμ./χλμ. CO2) για την κατηγορία, που επιτυγχάνονται εκτός των άλλων και χάρη στη χρησιμοποίηση της νέας πλατφόρμας EMP2.
• Σειρά πρωτοποριακών τεχνολογικών εφαρμογών για κορυφαία άνεση, όπως η High Definition πανοραμική οθόνη των 12ιντσών.
• Συμπαγείς διαστάσεις (μήκος 4,43μ., πλάτος 1,83μ., ύψος 1,61μ.) που όμως προσφέρουν άπλετο εσωτερικό χώρο για πέντε επιβάτες και τις αποσκευές τους (537l).
• Δυναμικές γραμμές και στυλιστικά στοιχεία που έρχονται από τις τελευταίες πρωτότυπες προτάσεις της Citroën, όπως τα πίσω LED φωτιστικά σώματα με 3D-effect.

Το πρωτότυπο θα παρουσιαστεί για πρώτη φορά στο προσεχές σαλόνι αυτοκινήτου της Γενεύης, στις αρχές Μαρτίου.

It is Konstantina Spyropoulou Nea Menegaki;

"It's seductive, like no other for many years "

I last saw her in Themos, like half of Greece, and I admit it magnetized me. She is not quite beautiful - the Duchess who was sitting opposite was also a doll. Spyropoulou - how can I explain it;- she is different. She is a "very nice chick" and at the same time the woman you want to put you to sleep on her body and caress your hair whether you are a man or a woman or gay - like a mother.

It is he who speaks at a smooth pace, but you do not bore her because she has something of her own in the joint and nothing canned in what she says (more and more "surprise" will lick her lips every now and then). She flashes her eyelashes sexy, but to emphasize a glimmer of determination in her look. She is a TV apprentice witch and seductive like no one for many years.

And she is very smart as it was seen from the ping pong draw she played with Themos and Perris at their home. Those who rushed to classify her as a typical "blonde" on TV (a species that has already proven in recent years that it has sharp claws of intelligence and survival instinct that you do not expect from TV kittens but from jungle tigers), those who rushed to judge her by her primitive attacks on glass (as if it is easy to be suddenly thrown into the arena with the lions), did not notice it seems that this blonde has from the very first day the right colorist to dye her hair, the right hairstyle, the right make-up, complete styling and trained attitude. In other words, it is ready.

In the celebrity blogs and Star news the inevitable comparison has already been made: "Who is this blonde next to Konstantina Spyropoulou;Said a reporter with audacity, wanting to combine Eleni Menegaki's all time classic communication gel with the fresh air that blows around Spyropoulou's name, raising the numbers. But Menegaki is not so accidental. In a marketing move like when Madonna had kissed Britney Spears on stage, the two women started their joint appearances with more carabamos at the film premiere of Christoforos Papakaliatis. Madonna had long since cleverly won another ten years on the throne of the undisputed queen. Eleni Menegaki who plays is more of a cat, maybe sit on both.
