5 "strange" specialties in the Automotive Industry

Connecting to the source…

In our everyday life, we get in our car and head to our destination or enjoy driving the way we all do. We rarely think about how many specialties are required to create the vehicle we have acquired and we almost never imagine that among them there are some "strange" or "unexpected" ones.. We present you 5 specialties that you didn't imagine were hiding behind your car, before it is produced.   The creator with clay The body of each new mass-produced model is first made with clay, in natural size, to ascertain its proportions and details and make the necessary changes. It may seem simple but it is not at all. It is estimated that for this preform of each new model are required -on average- about 2,5 tons of clay and 10.000 hours of work from the team of sculptors who will shape the final shape.   The tailor Handmade cars or customized versions of some of the mass-produced models require specialized workers who know their job very well and have talent in their field. One of them is the tailor who will undertake to check the quality of the fabric or leather with which he will dress the interior of a vehicle according to the customer's wishes. The hand or machine stitching they handle must be flawless and it is estimated that they need approx 30 meters of suitable thread to complete each vehicle. Their work takes time, to get it right.

Why you should eat eggs whole

Connecting to the source…
Egg is a complete food, as it contains many proteins of high biological value, vitamins and trace elements.   It also contains calcium, phosphorus, sodium, potassium, vitamin A, B12, folic acid and iron.   Many people diet or watch their diet for health reasons, they avoid eating eggs or consume only the whites and exclude the yolks.   If you belong to them, it's time to change your attitude: Studies that have been published recently, argue that we don't get enough choline from the diet and the best way to get it is to eat egg yolks.   Choline intake is extremely important during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Adequate maternal choline intake is associated with better child learning performance, better vision and memory.   Η κατανάλωση ολόκληρων αυγών προλαμβάνει τη γήρανση του εγκεφάλου, βελτιώνει τη μνήμη, προστατεύει το συκώτι και ενισχύει τις αθλητικές επιδόσεις.

Γαλακτοκομικά: Ποιο είδος προστατεύει από την κατάθλιψη

Connecting to the source…
Το γάλα και το γιαούρτι είναι δυνατό να επιδράσουν προστατευτικά ενάντια στην κατάθλιψη, αρκεί να επιλέξει κανείς το σωστό είδος, δείχνει μια νέα επιστημονική μελέτη που εκπονήθηκε από ερευνητές στην Κίνα και την Ιαπωνία. Όταν μιλάμε για είδος, στη συγκεκριμένη περίπτωση η διάκριση αφορά την ποσότητα λιπαρών στα γαλακτοκομικά προϊόντα.   Σύμφωνα με τα στοιχεία που δημοσιεύονται στην επιθεώρηση Social Psychiatry and Psychiatric Epidemiology, το γάλα και το γιαούρτι με χαμηλά λιπαρά συνδέονται με λιγότερες πιθανότητες εκδήλωσης κατάθλιψης, σε σχέση με τα αντίστοιχα προϊόντα με πλήρη λιπαρά.   Continue at source ...

The Higgs boson "runs" in the auditoriums of the Planetarium

Columbia University Physics Professor Michael Tuts speaks to the audience Thursday 27 April 2017 and time 19:30 at the Eugenides Foundation Amphitheater.
At the invitation of the Columbia University alumni association in Greece, professor Michael Tuts will give a single talk with a central axis three questions:
-Why are we interested in the Higgs boson?;
-How they discovered it 6.000 scientists at CERN;
-What is the next step;
Professor Michael Tuts' research focuses on High Energy Experimental Physics.
He headed the US research team that participates in the ATLAS experiment, one of the 4 main experiments implemented at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN.
In addition to theoretical research, Michael Tuts reaches out to the general public and explains abstract and difficult scientific concepts in an understandable way.
This will be followed by the screening of the digital show: "Phantom of the Universe" in the New Digital Planetarium. There will be two performances (by Dimitra Papanastassopoulou is published by Dioptra Publications 20:45 and 21:30).
From the 'speed race' of protons at the world's largest particle accelerator at CERN to the Big Bang and the 'emerging' Universe, but also the descent to’ a basement in South Dakota, almost 1.500 m below the Earth's surface, the show will introduce viewers to the multifaceted research on dark matter.
Entry to the event is free.

The Tesla pickup is coming

Kostas Fouzas (kf@newsauto.gr)

Via Twitter Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla, brings back to the fore the company's plans for its first pick-up model. Creating playgrounds for use by children with mobility problems and ensuring their access to all municipal structures and schools, confirmed that the said project will come to fruition and thus the production model will be released in the 2019 in the American market initially (where this particular category of vehicles records high sales figures). On a technical level now, we expect a fully electric pick-up, with four-wheel drive, great horsepower (0-100 km/h σε 6 sec approx) and autonomy that will reach 500 km.
From the electronically edited spy photos that have been published on the internet from time to time, like the one we present to you, it looks like the production model will retain Tesla's design identity up front, it will have a double-cab body and a large cargo area. In fact, sources from Tesla claim that their model will not lag behind in anything compared to the traditional players in the category.
End, note that the first Tesla pick-up will have all the technological elements with which the company equips its models (among them an autonomous driving system).

Another important benefit of olive oil

Extra virgin olive oil in the diet seems to have another benefit according to a recent study, since research on mice showed that the hydroxytyrosol  which contains, can reverse precursor conditions in animals diabetes, as well as non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, which can even lead to cancer. Hydroxytyrosol belongs to the polyphenols that have strong antioxidant properties  and according to the study published in the Journal Lipids in Health and Disease, the animals that consumed a lot of fat, without receiving hydroxytyrosol presented increase in levels  of total and bad LDL cholesterol . On the contrary, the animals receiving the polyphenol, did not show such increases, while the insulin resistance, which increases with the consumption of a lot of fat, was present at lower levels in animals receiving hydroxytyrosol, despite consuming a lot of fat. They had the best results, of course, animals that were fed normally.   Continue at source ...
