Lessons in humanity from Marko Seferlis

The side he hides from the public eye
Markos Seferlis is a man who generously spreads a smile. It has a source of humor and a strong sense of self-mockery without a trace of taboo.

But few know that the actor has another gift, which he has taken care to hide from the public eye.

According to the newspaper "Espresso", his mind has been on a child lately 9 years from northern Greece, το οποίο αντιμετωπίζει ιδιαίτερο πρόβλημα υγείας και ο ηθοποιός έχει αναλάβει να μετριάσει το βάρος που έχει πέσει στις πλάτες της οικογένειας.

The new Renault Alpine in Paris!

In Paris, Renault will present a concept version of the new Alpine, here the historical version A110.
To celebrate the 50 years since the presentation of the Renault Alpine A110, the French brand is preparing and will present us with a surprise at the Paris exhibition.
Of course the information is very limited, but the designer of the brand, Laurens van den Acker said in his statements to the British special press that "it would be remiss of us not to do something to celebrate the anniversary of the model".
At least in the first phase, it will be a concept model, but the rumors about Alpine's return to the market, they are crying. In fact, there are not a few who have serious visions if the relevant project comes to fruition, especially after the proud statements of the brand's marketing manager in Great Britain, Steve Norman, who mentioned that: “We have to ask ourselves if there is room in the market, to create a rival to Porsche"!

The new Land Rover Defender will be manufactured in India

Land Rover's Defender may be one of the most recognizable British products in the world, but the new generation can change… construction continent!
The impressive prototype presented at the Frankfurt show 2011 with the DC100 code it literally stole the show as the British brand doesn't do that very often. What is not certain though, is that no matter how much we were impressed by the DC100 or otherwise the model that will form the basis of development for the new Defender, it is not certain whether it will continue to be manufactured in the country that gave birth to it about half a century ago.
The news comes from Great Britain, and wants the new four-wheel drive model to be built in Pune, India, of course to reduce costs. There is the possibility, the final assembly of models to be imported into Europe to be done in Great Britain, but nothing is certain yet. End, the production version of the model, it will use a heavily modified version of the LR4 body (Discovery), and Range Rover Sport, while of course the appearance will be inspired by the DC100.

of the city: the electric vehicle that… folds

It's called Hiriko EV and it was presented in Brussels. It is a purely electric vehicle, but it has a peculiarity in its body, since this folds in the parking lot!
Surely the news of yet another electric vehicle no longer excites us, since they are increasing at a rapid rate. But when it comes to a build like the Hiriko EV things are somewhat different. Why; Simply because its designers have evolved it so that it "pulls itself together" when its driver wants to park it, as a result, it takes up significantly less space, from its already small size. In fact, its manufacturer states that when it is folded, the space it needs to park, are the 2/3 from its smart counterpart! Only two passengers have access to the vehicle through the single front-mounted door, while inside Hiriko there is not the classic steering wheel we know but a joystick.

Many details have not been announced, but however unreal it may seem, its production will begin within it 2013 in Spain, with 20 test copies have already been made. The initial construction cost of each is the 16.253 dollars, however, this is not an indicative purchase price of the production model.

Global SOS for monuments

IN A’ ATHENS CEMETERY
The Cemetery is on the list of monuments at risk for the 2012, as it faces huge problems, even statics for some of his tombstones.
The homeland sleeps deeper than "Sleeping" by Giannoulis Halepas when it comes to its monuments. Not the ancient or Byzantine ones. Not even the abandoned ones. The A’ Cemetery of Athens is one of the most important "living" monuments of the country. However, is on the list of monuments in danger for the 2012.
The list is drawn up by the World Monuments Fund and the Cemetery was found there as it faces huge problems, even statically, for some of his tombstones. The application-proposal for inclusion was made by the Municipality of Athens itself, in order to garner both the spotlight and help.
As stated in the relevant text on the organization's website, the A’ Cemetery is the oldest in the capital. It was created 1830, shortly after the establishment of the new Greek state.
There rest many men and women who brightened our public life: politicians, heroes of the Revolution, artists etc. The old man of Moria is buried there, Melina Mercouri and Jules Dassin, George Seferis, Costas Varnalis, Manos Katrakis, Tasos Livaditis, Elli Lampeti and many more people from those who glorified the name of Greece.
Among his tombstones there are many important examples of neoclassicism from the 19th as well as the 20th century: huts and temples built on tombs as well as tombstones and other structures.
Many of them present enormous problems today, even static and must urgently receive first aid.
Also the surface of the marble architectural members and sculptures shows massive corrosion – the best-known statue that has been in danger for decades is the beautiful "Sleeping" of Halepa. As time passes, without measures being taken, these problems grow. Until at some point they will be impossible to deal with.
Greece's poor financial situation is currently a reality. But also before, in times when the finances of the state were better, no one showed any interest in this important monument.
No one took steps to encourage the preservation of the sculptural treasures that exist there. Even legal problems - since monuments have owners who sometimes do not consent to their removal or repair- are an inhibitory factor. The root cause, Nevertheless, it is the absence of any will on the part of the state.

Ephesus and Hagia Sophia
The monuments included in the list of the Organization for the 2012 it's a lot – from our country only this. From our neighboring Turkey Aphrodisias is an ancient city that often makes this list as does Ephesus (the second due to high traffic, without taking parallel measures).
also, for several years it was Hagia Sophia until openings in its roof were restored and rainwater stopped entering, which spoiled the famous Byzantine mosaics found under the whitewashed surfaces of the walls.
Being on the list is a step towards taking some action with help, even with financing, of the Global Fund. But the funding is not so high as to be able to solve the problem. For’ therefore additional and many measures are required. Let's hope the motherland wakes up in time.
  • In Cyprus
    From Cyprus to the list of the Organization for the 2012 the medieval city of Famagusta has been included.

Alkistis Protopsalti and Evanthia Reboutsika travel their music and songs in Thessaloniki, at the Concert Hall, at 10 and 11 February.
They will present songs flooded with the light of Greece, with sounds that smell of the East but also wink at the West, a program that stirs with its passion and power filling our hearts with tenderness and sensitivity.
“Spice, cinnamon and celebration",  the title of the show, inspired by a song by the Citizen Kitchen to "exorcise" evil, still in a festive mood and many emotions!
Alkistis Protopsalti reports characteristics: "Evanthia's music transports you to something very familiar, in smells and perfumes, to something very familiar, like Sunday afternoon at mom's house where everything is musky. The way she plays her lovely violin encapsulates melancholy and joy in equal measure, it hits you right in the heart".
Evanthia Reboutsika adds: "Where I was looking to find the nightingale of the East outside of Greece, I found it in front of me chirping. I was moved by the colors and aromas of her voice and it inspired me to record new songs but also to unite musically on stage".
One voice, a violin and a special orchestra that emits fire, with each musician playing 2-3 instruments… canon, accordion, trumpet, cello, lute, metallophone, piano, kahon, upright bass, astride, crust, tambourines, guitar, mandolin.
Alkistis Protopsalti and Evanthia Reboutsika will fill our hearts, they will embrace our dreams and take us on a musical journey to Greece, Istanbul, Egypt, the Balkans, in a program that the public of Athens adored!
