"Traveling with the Southern Cross" in Megaro

A different kind of Christmas entertainment
An adventurous and charming musical fairy tale, inspired by the "Southern Cross" in the poetry of Nikos Kavadias, milestone project in the career of the composer Thanos Mikroutsikos, will star at the Christmas events of the Athens Concert Hall.

The reason for the musical performance "Traveling with the Southern Cross" which is staged for ten performances from 22 until 30 December (22,23,26,27,28,29 and 30/12 at 8.30 pm and 23,26 and 30/12 at 5 pm), in the Christos Lambrakis room that has been specially designed for the event, by set designer Giorgos Vafias, like a big ship.

It is a different Christmas multi-spectacle with the participation of great singers, musicians, actors and dancers that appeals to the imagination and maturity of children but also to the sensitivity of adults.

"The Cross of the South" in poetry by Nikos Kavadias is a work alive for its creator, Thanos Mikroutsikos, since from the time of the composition of the first songs (1977) until today, it is constantly changing and is the spearhead of his songwriting. The composer's now-legendary songs that brought the "great traveler of poetry" close to the young after urging them to "dance on the shark's fin", to push their limits and conquer the impossible, today they become the trigger for a performance full of music, fairy tales and scenic symbols that aspire to take the younger generation along on a journey into the world of fantasy.

The popular compositions of Thanos Mikroutsikos – with him, of course, also present in the role of performer – they travel together with the texts written by the author Maria Papagianni, inspired by the magical images that emerge from the texts of Kavadias and others, derived from well-known nautical tales, Greek and foreign.

The performance is directed by Thanos Mikroutsikos, while the choreography is by Cecile Mikroutsikou..

Storytellers participate – singers Christos Thibeos, Kostas Thomaidis, Rita Antonopoulou and Anna Linardou.

At the Detroit Fair, British Bentley is expected to officially present a new one, V8 twinturbo engine, which completes the range of available Continental GT Coupe and GTC variants. It is worth clarifying that this 4-liter engine is placed one step lower than the 6,0 W12 of the brand, which will continue to be available at the top of the Continental GT and GTC model pyramid.

Another element that the official announcements of the British do not make clear is whether the engine in question, who, despite any interventions in its mapping it is the same as the one that drives Audi S6s, S7 and S8, is able to consume bio-ethanol as an alternative fuel, as is the case with their 6 liter W12 640 horses.
By design, the Continental GT and GTC that will host the engine in question will have the following design differences: new grille in black and aluminum border, red 'B' logo, slightly redesigned front bumper, wheels 20 inches (optionally 21 inches), rear exhausts in the shape of a… lying “8”.

THEATER : "Notary"

For a few more shows until the beginning of January
A performance, apology and confession together. A simple act. Erasmia. A woman with passion. In the wrong place and the wrong time. In a provincial town in Greece, Erasmia, a widow trapped in a booth and the morals of small society, leads to absence.
The hair on her cheek indicates her heat, but for the town where he lives, a widow is just a used one. No rights. Antidote to her fantasy, the zucchinis. And the mind... I understand. But the bad is not long in coming.
Temptation arises. And he's short, but with qualifications. And how can Erasmia go against the libido?; Rapist and victim together, desires the forbidden. And when he dares to provoke it, immediate punishment.
Reason is a contract and what is promised must be kept.
The successful show "Notary" by Nikos Vassiliadis with Yro Manet , continues for a few more shows until early January.
At the "Theatre", Hall Iphigenia B, "Hellenic World" Cultural Center, Piraeus 254, Taurus.

F1: From the USA to Argentina!

Όπως ίσως γνωρίζετε αν έχετε παρακολουθήσει το σχετικό θέμα στο site μας η F1 ετοιμάζεται για ολική επαναφορά στις ΗΠΑ. For the 2012 παρά τις δυσκολίες που αντιμετωπίζει, ο αγώνας του Ώστιν στο Τέξας είναι ακόμη στο καλεντάρι ενώ για το 2013 υπάρχει συμφωνία να γίνει αγώνας στους δρόμους του Νιού Τζέρσεϊ.
Μιλώντας στο Αλ Τζαζίρα ο διευθύνων σύμβουλος της F1, Μπέρνι Έκλεστον ρωτήθηκε για το πως αξιολογεί την ανάπτυξη της F1 στις ΗΠΑ: «Οι αγώνες που θα έχουμε στο μέλλον στις ΗΠΑ είναι το πολύ δυο και πρόκειται για μια χώρα στο μέγεθος της Ευρώπης όπου έχουμε πολλούς αγώνες. Οπότε είναι δύσκολο να έχουμε ανάλογη απήχηση. Αν είχαμε περισσότερους αγώνες και μεγαλύτερη τηλεοπτική κάλυψη τα πράγματα θα μπορούσαν να είναι διαφορετικά. Υπάρχει η νοοτροπία στην Αμερική να βλέπουν το κέρδος προτού ξεκινήσουν κάτι και αυτό δεν διευκολύνει τα πράγματα».
Η τελευταία φορά που έγινε αγώνας στις ΗΠΑ ήταν το 2007 στην Ινδιανάπολη. Στην Αργεντινή τώρα έχει να γίνει αγώνας από το 1998. Η χώρα που βρέθηκε στη δίνη του οικονομικού κυκλώνα την προηγούμενη δεκαετία έχει πλέον ανακάμψει και γίνονται βήματα για την διεκδίκηση αγώνα εκ νέου.
Ήδη κατασκευάζεται μια πίστα σε απόσταση 100km από το Μπουένος Άιρες το «Velociudad Speedcity» η πόλη της ταχύτητας δηλαδή και στις προδιαγραφές του έχει ληφθεί υπόψιν να μπορεί να φιλοξενήσει Moto GP αλλά και F1. Οι Αργεντίνοι έχοντας φιλοξενήσει για πολλά χρόνια τη F1 στο παρελθόν και γνωρίζοντας καλά τα οφέλη που έχει για τη χώρα τους αλλά και την αγάπη του λαού για το άθλημα αυτό πιέζουν προς την ανάληψη GP. Ήδη το Moto GP έχει ανακοινώσει ότι επιστρέφει στη Αργεντινή σε άλλη πίστα (Rio Hondo) the 2013.
