Το "Πειρατικό" Βουλιάζει....

Το "Πειρατικό" δέχθηκε σοβαρότατο πλήγμα χθες το βράδυ με αποτέλεσμα να είναι μισοβουλιαγμένο στον όμιλο του θανάτου. Σε τίποτα δεν θύμιζε το συγκρότημα που σήκωσε το τρόπαιο στην Πορτογαλία και χάρισε στους Έλληνες φίλαθλους και μη ατέλειωτες και πρωτόγνωρες συγκινήσεις...

Για την ιστορία η Σουηδία νίκησε με 0-2.

Στο 67΄ ο Ιμπραϊμοβιτς δικαιολόγησε τη φήμη που τον ακολουθεί, καθώς με ένα εξαιρετικό πλασέ από το ύψος της μεγάλης περιοχής νίκησε τον Νικοπολίδη κάνοντας το 0-1 (η Ελλάδα ήταν τυπικά γηπεδούχος) και στο 72΄ ήρθε νέα "ψυχρολουσία", καθώς ο ξεχασμένος στην ελληνική άμυνα Χάνσον έκανε το 0-2 σε φάση διαρκείας, και αφού ο Νικοπολίδης (είχε αποκρούσει το αρχικό πλασέ του Βίλχεμσον) και οι Κυργιάκος, Σεϊταρίδης δεν μπόρεσαν να απομακρύνουν τη μπάλα.

Πλέον μόνο με νίκη επί της Ρωσίας ελπίζει η Ελλάδα στην πρόκριση...Ίδωμεν..

Just think about this

Just think about this….

In the year 2000

1 $=1.2 € Cost of 1 Barrel of Petroleum = 60$

Thus

1 Barrel = 72 €

Today ( May 2008)

1 $ = 0.63 € Cost of 1 Barrel of Petroleum =115$.

Thus

1 Barrel = 72.45 €

Can I ask a silly question?

Through out the years 2000-2008 the price of one barrel of petroleum raised 0.45 €

Why do I pay for my car fuels at at least 2 times the price i payed last year?

Black Rose

Black rose is the dream of all geneticists...It is a dream that never came true at the time....

Black rose (symbolism)

Black roses (roses of black color) do not exist in nature as such, but nevertheless they are often featured in fiction with many different meanings. The flowers commonly called black roses are actually a very dark red color, such as the "black magic", "barkarole", "black beauty" and "baccara" varieties of roses.

Language of Flowers

In the 19th century, the language of flowers became popular. In this code, black roses signify death, hatred, or farewell, but can also mean the overcoming of a long hard journey. They were often used at funerals. A single black rose might be sent by a close friend and or loved one leaving for a war or on a journey from which he did not expect to return. An alternate meaning is 'slavish devotion', since a true black rose is impossible to produce.

Nazism

During World War II, a group called the White Rose, led by the siblings Hans and Sophie Scholl, formed to oppose the Nazis, but was dismantled and their members were executed. Because of this, some claim that the Nazis used the white rose as a symbol of a traitor and the black rose as a symbol of all being well (victory over the white rose).[1]

Anarchism

The black rose is a rarely used symbol of the anarchist movement.

Black Rose Books was the name of the pre-eminent anarchist bookstore in Montreal and is now the name of a small press imprint headed by anarchist philosopher Dimitrios Roussopoulos. Black Rose was the title of a respected journal of anarchist ideas published in the Boston area during the 1970s, as well as the name of an anarchist lecture series addressed by notable anarchist and libertarian socialists (including Murray Bookchin and Noam Chomsky) into the 1990s.

Larnaca No2

Coordinates : 34°55′09″N 33°37′51″E / 34.9192, 33.6308

Larnaca, (Greek: Λάρνακα) is a city of the Republic of Cyprus situated on the east coast of Cyprus. The major international airport, Larnaca International Airport is located in this city. In ancient times, Larnaca was known as Kition, or (in Latin) Citium. The biblical name Kittim, though derived from Citium, was in fact used quite generally for Cyprus as a whole, and occasionally by the Jews for the Greeks and Romans. Larnaca is colloquially known as "Skala" (Greek: Σκάλα).

It has a population of 72,000 (2001) and is the island's second commercial port and an important tourist resort. To the north of the town lies the island's oil refinery, while to the south of Larnaca the International Airport is situated. The city of Larnaka is well-known for its picturesque sea-front which includes rows of palm trees (oi finikoudes, in the Cypriot dialect). Much of the activity is centred around the city promenade during the major festivals. The most important of these for the city of Larnaka is Kataklysmos or the Festival of the Flood, celebrated in early summer with a series of cultural events.

A famous Athenian general, Kimon, died at sea defending the city of Citium in a major battle with the Persians of Xerxes. On his deathbed, he urged his officers to conceal his death from both allied and Persians. The quote "Και Νεκρός Ενίκα" ("Even in death he was victorious") refers to Kimon. A statue of "Kimon the Athenian" stands proudly on the sea front promenade of modern Larnaca.

Like other cities of Cyprus, it has suffered repeatedly from earthquakes, and in medieval times when its harbour silted up (a sign that the island was deforested and overgrazed) the population moved to Larnaca, on the open seafront farther south. The harbour and citadel have now disappeared. Traces remain of the circuit wall, and of a sanctuary with copious terra-cotta offerings; the large cemetery has yielded constant loot to illicit excavation for more than a century.
