LAKIS GAVALAS: Birthday in Korydallos prison

This year's birthday of the famous designer and businessman is not reminiscent of the old days with the frantic parties in Mykonos.

Lakis Gavalas who has his birthday today, will spend them in Korydallos prison where he is being held.

According to an article in the Espresso newspaper, Lakis Gavalas is closed to himself and receives few visits from his very close friends who have nothing to do with the show biz space.

Until last year, the designer spent his birthday at his villa in Ftelia, Mykonos, where all the people of show biz passed by and they partyed until the next morning.

NASA

The exploration of Mars from the Curiosity vehicle began

It successfully landed today on 8.32 (Greece time) on the planet Mars the robotic vehicle Curiosity, NASA announced. The seven-minute process was the hardest landing of an unmanned spacecraft ever on the Red Planet. The vehicle immediately began sending pictures back to earth and searching for extraterrestrial life forms.

The Curiosity rover sent its first signal when it entered the Martian atmosphere. "We received signals, things look good" said a member of the mission. NASA's space shuttle launched from Cape Canaveral on 26 November 2011.

Its mission is to explore Mars in order to determine whether the Red Planet ever had the conditions to support any life.

Immediately after the successful landing the mission members erupted in cheers and one of the officials handed out Mars chocolates…

The same atmosphere of joy prevailed when the robot sent the first photo, of exceptional purity, of his shadow on the ground of Mars, immediately after his landing.

US President Barack Obama in his announcement speaks of an unprecedented technological achievement.

The program cost money 2,5 di. dollars.

The craft entered the Martian atmosphere at a speed of approx 20 thousands of km/h. A combination of systems (parachutes, specially designed thrusters etc.) built into the craft helped Curiosity to land as "softly" as possible so as not to damage any of its advanced and ultra-sensitive instruments.

New ambitious exploration phase

A new ambitious phase of exploration of the neighboring "red planet" is thus inaugurated, with the main stake being finding traces of microbial life, either in the distant past, or more recently, either- as the most visionary hope- even in the present.

In essence, the new mission is expected to lay a firmer foundation for a future human-first mission to the planet, something that is not expected to happen at least two decades ago.

The weight 900 kg nuclear powered (with plutonium fuel) six-wheeled robotic rover, with the official name "Mars Science Laboratory" (Mars Scientific Laboratory"), it's the size of a car, it is more than twice as long and five times heavier than the twin rovers “Spirit” and “Opportunity” who reached Mars the 2004.

"Curiosity" was launched on 26 November 2011 and traveled approx 248 million. kilometers to reach Mars, being the
largest and most expensive vehicle ever sent to another planet.

The entire shipment cost approx 2,5 billion dollars and it is hoped that the vehicle will last many more years than the two years NASA originally planned.

It is the most complete and technologically advanced space mobile scientific laboratory, as it has a range of cameras and scientific instruments, as well as a robotic sample collection arm, which will allow him to carry out, in the coming years, a wide range of on-site scientific analyses. Every day, the results of his surveys of the Martian soil will be sent electronically to Earth for further analysis by
the scientists.

The autonomous rover, which will remain stationary in its place for several days, until it is ensured that all is well with its electronic systems, will focus his investigations on its alluvial rocks, height approx 5 km, Mount Sharp (or, as is its official name, Aeolis mountains), which is located inside the ancient and huge Gale Crater, latitudinal 154 km. and aged over 3,5 di. years.

The rocks in question are considered a kind of "time capsule" for the successive geological stages of the planet from the wettest
and his warm past to his arid and cold present.

The vehicle- laboratory, which will move slowly with a speed of just 30 meters per hour (going through the lot 200 meters per day), will continue to analyze Martian rocks looking for complex organic molecules, which will probably constitute the
chemical "signature" of some past or present microorganisms.

But the difficulty for scientists will be to make sure that such carbon-based molecules are indeed of biological origin (the metabolism of microbes), since they could also have been produced through abiotic geochem
procedures.

Research so far has shown that once upon a time, billions of years ago, Mars had an atmosphere and liquid water, therefore a basic condition for the emergence of some form of life was met.

Now, it is hoped that the “Curiosity” will take another step, also finding evolved organic molecules that could be remnants or byproducts of such microorganisms.

Interview

The root of the crisis is our selfishness and infidelity

From: http://www.newsbeast.gr/greece/arthro/394280/riza-tis-krisis-o-egoismos-kai-i-apistia-mas/

«Ρίζα της κρίσης ο εγωισμός και η απιστία μας»

Interview of Archbishop Hieronymos

To show faith, to draw strength from the church and lay aside selfishness, in the difficult situation that the country is going through, is the message sent to the Greeks by the Archbishop of Athens, Mr. Hieronymos from Corfu where he is on a few days vacation.

"Selfishness is the greatest sin. He who is selfish does not only harm himself, he also harms his fellow man. The more selfish there are, the greater the evil. Therefore, if we want to look for the causes of today's crisis, the root is the selfishness and infidelity of each of us. If we are honest and look deeply, I think we will also find the cause of the crisis", said the Archbishop to the Athens News Agency.

His Beatitude Archbishop of Athens Hieronymos is in Corfu for a few days of rest after his tour in Macedonia, invited by the Metropolitan of Corfu, Paxos and Diapontian Islands, etc.. Nektariou.

Mr. Jerome, this morning he officiated at the Divine Liturgy at the Holy Monastery of the High Pantocrator, on Mount Pantokrator, the highest point on the island.

Makariotatos in his sermon to the congregation pointed out that "Our time is difficult. Many efforts are being made by authorities, powers, governments , there are many discussions. All of these are useful, beneficial and they need us and should. Good is the continuous struggle and the effort to face every personal or other difficulty. But we find strength and peace through faith ,the Word of the Lord and the Church".

During his stay in Corfu, the Archbishop worshiped the shrine of the island's patron Saint Spyridon.

He also visited other holy pilgrimages, while he also went to the Diapontian Islands where he had the opportunity to talk with the few inhabitants of Othoni.

Theater

Dustin Hoffman in… Greek board

"The lives of others" in the Athenian theater

Dustin Hoffman is, in duplicate, the protagonist of the upcoming theater season in Athens. That's because both films in which he won an Oscar for Best Actor will be played, prepared, on the board. "Kramer vs. Kramer" and "The Rain Man" -ή «Rainman», they are transferred in the winter to the stages of the Emporikon and Bretania theaters, respectively. A decade apart, the first is his production 1979 and his second 1988, while they are the ones who gave it to him, for the role of Ted Kramer and Raymond Rabbit the two Oscars of his career, until now at least….

Next to these two film adaptations, and a third, German production, comes to the Athens theater from autumn: The Oscar-winning best foreign film will be shown at the Thision theater (2006) by screenwriter and director Florian Henkel von Donnersmarck "The Lives of Others" -which also set a record number of nominations at the German Film Awards.

More detailed, directed by Eleni Scotti - who alongside her work at Epi Colonos theater with the group NAMMA- and performed by Mirella Papaikonomou, the Kramers will be brought to life by Dimitris Alexandris and Maria Zorba - Meryl Streep then won her first Oscar, for the second female role, as a wife and mother. On the subject of a couple's life after divorce and especially the way their young son experiences it, the production also won the Oscar for Best Picture 1979 while also achieving great box-office success. Directed and written by Robert Benton _based on the book by Avery Corman. The Greek production of Hellenic Theamaton for the Emporikon theater stage, includes among its contributors Dimitris Papadimitriou (music) and George Gavalas (scenery). Also playing are Athina Maximou, Christodoulos Stylianou, Dimitris Mavros and (alternately) three children.

Dimitris Lignadis brings to the stage of the central Bretania theater "Man of the Rain" with Christos Chatzipanagiotis and Yiannis Stankoglou, in the roles of the two brothers played by Dustin Hoffman and Tom Cruise, in the late 80s. The movie, directed by Barry Levinson and written by Barry Morrow and Ronald Bass, it received rave reviews at the time, and alongside Hoffman's Oscar, it also won an Oscar for Best Picture, Director and Original Screenplay. Its theme is the story of a selfish yuppie, by Charlie Babbitt, who discovers that his estranged father has died and left his entire fortune to his other son, the autistic Raymond, whose existence he was completely unaware of. The film was also a box office success…

End at Thision of Tournavitou Street, Alice Danezi – Knutsen, whom we met through the theater "Festen", in the same place six years ago, suggests "The Lives of Others", in the translation of Eris Kyrgia and the scenery of Kiki Pitta. This is the play by Albert Ostermeier based on the film by Florian Henkel von Donnersmarck: Based in East Berlin 1984, the play deals with the story of the famous playwright Georg Dreimann and his actress partner Christa – Maria Silland being watched by the Stasi spy, Gerd Whistler at the indirect prompting of the infatuated minister Bruno Hepf. When the spy as an uninvited "guest" and witness to the lives of others begins to harbor feelings of sympathy for the unsuspecting couple, nothing can stay the same anymore. Actors play: Anna Masha (Krista – Maria Silland), Manolis Mavromatakis (Gerd Whistler), Fanis Mouratidis (Georg Dreyman), Costas Berikopoulos (Bruno Hepf), Giorgos Symeonidis Mr. a. It is a production of the Lykofos company of Giorgos Lykiardopoulos.
