Ο Βρετανός πράκτορας επιστρέφει και αυτή τη φορά έχει άσσους στο μανίκι. Κατά τη διάρκεια συνέντευξης Τύπου της Sony Pictures, ανακοινώθηκε το καστ και τα πρώτα στοιχεία της υπόθεσης για τη νέα κινηματογραφική περιπέτεια του James Bond. Αυτό που κάνει την νέα ταινία του Bond ξεχωριστή, είναι ο σκηνοθέτης της, ο Sam Mendez (American BeautyRoad to PerditionRevolutionary Road) και φυσικά το πλούσιο καστ. Για τρίτη φορά θα σώσει τον κόσμο ο Daniel Craig ως James Bond, ενώ ο μεγάλος του αντίπαλος θα είναι ο βραβευμένος με Oscar, Javier Bardem. Επίσης στην ταινία συμμετέχουν οι Ralph Fiennes και Albert Finney. Η υπόθεση περιστρέφεται γύρω από τον Bond και την πίστη του στην Μ, καθώς το παρελθόν της έρχεται να τη στοιχειώσει. Καθώς η ΜΙ6 βάλλεται από παντού, The 007 καλείται να καταδιώξει και να καταστρέψει την απειλή, ακόμη και αν το κόστος θα είναι απόλυτα προσωπικό. Τα γυρίσματα του James Bond: Skyfall θα ξεκινήσουν στις 7 Νοεμβρίου και θα προβληθεί στις κινηματογραφικές αίθουσες από τις 26 Οκτωβρίου του 2012.

EPIDAURUS : A statue from Roman times was found

It was discovered in the surroundings of the Little Theater of Epidaurus, during the work being carried out, the statue of a naked man, which dates back to the imperial Roman times and possibly to the 2nd AD. century. Archaeologists cite the 2nd as a possible date, as at that time the Emperor Hadrian visited the city and created favorable conditions. The statue is essentially a marble torso, the size of which is slightly larger than a physical body and represents a naked man, who is naked and standing with a robe thrown over the left shoulder and wrapped around the arm, which was found in very good condition. The statue has a soft body build, with exaggeration in the clean structure and swelling in the muscles. The statue is inspired by the great sculptor Polykleitos and there is a possibility that it is a representation of the god Hermes. Archaeologists do not know if it is really a representation of the god or as has happened many times with other copies of the same type, by adjusting the head and face, which was the portrait of an important official of the time. The area where the statue was found, presumably included the purchase of the ancient city. More specifically, it was found embedded in a makeshift building, which dates earlier than the 4th AD. century, near older buildings, which are assumed by archaeologists to be part of the wider ancient market of Epidaurus. The works are carried out under the auspices of the Epidaurus Monuments Conservation Committee of the Ministry of Culture and Tourism. For the purpose of cleaning and maintaining the statue, it was transferred to the Museum of Asclepius Epidaurus.
