Με ένα σκαρί πειρατικό, στου λιμανιού σου την αγκαλιά να μπω… να ονειρευτώ .
In this video I have put together the images from Josh Foley's Longford Motor Racing Mural with a description of the historic street circuit in 1963. The cars raced around this track from 1953-1968, in conditions unimaginable today.
As you'll see in this historic footage there were minimal safety barriers, the drivers wore helmets no bigger than bicycle helmets, and some chose not to wear safety harnesses in the belief that it would enable a quicker getaway in case of fire.
Two drivers were killed in practice at Longford over the years, including a young rising star of the Grand Prix circuit, American Timothy Mayer. Neil Kearney was there as a schoolboy when it all happened, and here he recounts his harrowing tale: neilkearney.net.au/that-fateful-friday-afternoon-at-longf...
New Zealand driver Bruce McLaren (a Formula 1 team bears his name today) wrote an epitaph for Mayer that sadly fitted his own death at Goodwood, England in 1970:
"The news that he died instantly was a terrible shock to all of us. But who is to say that he had not seen more, done more and learned more in his 26 years than many people do in a lifetime? It is tragic, particularly for those left. Plans half-made must now be forgotten and the hopes must be rekindled. Without men like Tim, plans and hopes mean nothing. To do something well is so worthwhile that to die trying to do it better cannot be foolhardy. I can’t say these things well, but I know this is what I feel to be true. It would be a waste of life to do nothing with one’s ability. Life is measured in terms of achievement, not in years alone."
On this video we are guided around the track by Australian driver Lex Davison. Two years later at Sandown in Melbourne, Davison was killed in another practice run at just 42 years of age. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lex_Davison
This was an era of heroic men in still relatively primitive motor sport conditions. Some would have called them foolhardy, others courageous. Either way, they fit the perfect Greek description of a hero.
It is a wonderful thing that artist Josh Foley has been able to remind us of this moment in time.

Pelicans of lake Volvi , Macedonia northern Greece
Dalmatian Pelican (Pelecanus crispus) Αργυροπελεκάνοι
Today's story and sketch "by me" you see Apodesmos Gofish at his lavish beach front cottage here in Laguna Beach.
Let us start his story near the beginning, and that would be after graduating from "FSU" Fashion Sports Underwear,
continuation academy on lippo his home moon. Apodesmos wandered the Galaxy looking for a place to use his twenty
seven years of education in women's undergarment design. And he found the perfect place here in Greece,
after exiting worm hole nine, and a few Earth Orbits, he landed in Athens, and just happened to see the Greek
women's cross country team training on the goat path where he had stoped to set up a campsite for the night, and
while enjoying a moon pie and adult beverage, the women came up to his campsite and were of course taken by surprise
to see a four foot tall grey alien eating a moon pie, something they had never seen, (the moon pie) they had seen
other aliens in town, but it was the first time they had seen a moon pie. Their curiosity made them stop, to ask
about the wonderful smell of the banana pie. Apodesmos of course spoke perfect Greek and most every other language.
Always a good thing when you travel the galaxy to understand the locals. He offered the track team girls moon pies
and was soon talking with them about there baggy toga running outfits, and talked a few of the girls into trying
one of his new sport braziers which he designed as they watched, he cut and stitched and soon was fitting a few
girls who were eager to try the new contraptions. The girls were all a bit different some he fitted with the
Full cup, some the plunge, and had fun with a few in his bayonet pointy style units. And that was the the beginning
of many winning seasons of the Greek women in track and field events.
Apodesmos was dating a very nice young high hurdler, Gilda (a daughter of Theseus) and soon they moved to where
we are today, but that was a very long time ago and many Hurdler's ago. Till next time Taa ta the Rod Blog.
Wanting to win is the important part of winning.

Arab emerging fashion designers always add an Arabic touch to their designs. Sometimes it's the Hamsa or the evil Eye or simply Arabic letters.
I have noticed a trend in Greek designs as well. They all use patterns and colors not only on their clothing but also as we all know in their architecture and interior design. The blue and white houses on their Islands blend in. I have also noticed their amazing kaftans and maxi dresses. Once again blending in with their colorful islands!
Here I was wearing a maxi backless dress by a great Greek designer called Twins and a slipper with a perfect Greek pattern.

When confronted with a potential threat, the octopus employs several defense tactics. In the first method, pigment cells in the skin contract to allow for uncanny camouflage abilities. In addition to changing color, they also adapt the texture of their skin and their body posture to blend in seamlessly with their surroundings.
Olive oil, red wine vinegar, dried herbs, feta cheese... This recipe is the complete package. Loved it on top of this chicken sausage pasta salad: www.suziethefoodie.com/perfect-greek-salad-dressing/
Styra, the site of the Municipality, is an old historic small town, and the tourist Nea Styra by the sea, which is relatively new and rapidly developing settlement. The first written reference to Styra is found in the “Illiad” of Homer, in the “catalogue of ships”, where its participation is mentioned, along with other Euboean cities, in the Troyan war under the command of Elafinor. The ancient Greek histographers, especially Herodotus, classified the population of Styra as part of the pre- Hellenic Indo-European tribe of the Dryopes. According to the lexicographer Stefanos Vyzantios, the Dryopes settled initially around Oitis and Parnassos. After the arrival of the Dorians they were forced to move towards Peloponnese and Euboea, occuping the are of Dystos, Styra and Karystos. In contrast with this view, the ancient geographer Strabo attributed the foundation of Styra to colonist from Marathon.
The dominant theory in comparative linguistics at the end of the eighteenth century identified the etymology of the root of the place name Styra with the Phoenician goddess Astarte (Astira) and the establishment in the area of a Phoenician trading colony. Today, this view has been rejected and today’s generally accepted version is that the name “Styra” comes from the Sanskrit word “Stoura” which was current around the ninth century B.C. and which means bull or ox.
Styra was conquered by the troops of the Persian general Dates during the Persian campaign against Greece in 490 B.C. Before the battle of Marathon, the Persians transported the captured Eretrians to the small islet of Styra, the ancient Aigileia. During the second Persian campaign against Greeks, the Styreans took an active part in the struggle against Xerxes’ forces, with two triremes and an infantry battalion taking part in the battle of Plataia in 479 B.C.
From the 477 B.C. Styra, along with all the other cities of Evia, participated in the Athenian league. The Styreans took part in many military campaigns on the side of the Athenians during the Sicilian expedition of 415 B.C. in the second phase of Peloponnesian War. It appears that in the early fourth century B.C. Styra came under the dominance of Eretria, since epigraphic evidence of the time refers to it as though it were an Eretrian territory. During the Lamian War between the Macedonians under Antipater and the Athenians in 322 B.C., the Styreans supported the former. As a result the city was destroyed by the army of the Athenian general Leosthenes.
The Styreans, along with the Eretrians and the Chalkidians were famed for their prowess at fishing for deep-red shell – fish. During the period of Roman rule, the economy of the Styra and Karista region was founded on the mining of its famous marble, which in antiquity was called Karystian or Styrean stone. It was called Euboean or according to Latin writers, cipollino. It was a green-veined marble from which were made columns of the Library of Hadrian in Athens, and which was in great demand in the Roman and Byzantine periods.
During the period of Frankish rule in Evia the settlement of Styra was located on its present site, in the shadow of the castles of the Armenians or Lamernians, the ruins of which are preserved at the top of the hill of St. Nicolas oe Diakpoftis (450m) above Kliosi. The castle was built over the walls of the ancient Acropolis of Styra. At the beginning of the 1.300s the fortress was conquered by the Catalans, who sold it to Venetians in 1373. It was still in use after the occupation of Evia by the Ottomans in 1470.
It was also during the period of Frankish rule that Albanian- speakers were first settledin Evia, after a decision by the Venetian Senate (20 April 1402), with the purpose of using this population in the defense of the island. A second wave of the Albanian – speakers arrived in Evia around 1425. These Albanian-speakers settled in the region which stretches out to the south Ochi as fas as Avlonari and Aliveri. These populations mixed with and were absorbed by the Greek population which was already there. The memories of these events are today preserved in the form of linguistic idiom of the region of Styra, the (Arvanitika), a combination of Greek, Albanian and Medieval linguistic elements. This idiom was spoken over the last few years by a large part of the population. In our days it tends to vanish as well as the traditions related to it. This “language” was considered barbaric, so the school teachers tried to eradicate it, aiming to the clean and perfect Greek, without any relation to the Turkish occupation. This leaded to the vanishing of a whole tradition of songs, music and cultural elements.
The Styreans (Stouraites)took active part in the struggle for the liberation against Ottomans. On 12, Junary 1822 on the hill of Kokkinomilos, nort-west of Styra, one of the most dramatic pages in modern Greek history was written. Elias Petrobey Mavromichalis and a few brave men entrenched inside a wind-mill, the ruins of which still remain, were besieged by the Ottoman hordes of Omer Bey of Karystos, and suffered a martyr’ death. A monument was erected to act as a local reminder of the sacrifice of the Maniat was-lord and his fellow fighters.
A few months after the battle of Kokkinomilos, in June 1822, Nikolaos Kriezotis was appointed head of the Greek revolutionary powers in Evia. On 20, March 1823 Kriezotis fortified the slope of Diakoftis below the castle of Armenians, with the purpose of using the area as a base for the military campaign to besiege Karystos. On 23, March 1823 the Ottoman forces attempted to occupy the area and destroy the revolutionaries. After a six-hour battle Ober Bey’s forces were repelled by the Greek fighters. The Battle of Diakoftis had a greater effect on the course of the revolution in Evia, reinforcing the morale of the revolutionaries as it was the first time that the fearful Bey of Karystos had been defeated in battle by the revolutionary forces.
Modern Styra is a beautiful and well cared for market town, which also acts as the seat of the Municipality of Styra. It lies at a distance of around four kilometers from the sea and Nea Styra. Important historical monuments of the medieval and modern periods are the Castle of the Armenians, and the two small churches found inside it. The stone-covered church of St. Nicolas, built in the early 1800s, is located at the peak of the hill on which the castle lies, and the hill takes its modern name from the church. The Church of Virgin Mary of the castle was, as two inscriptions near the entrance testify, rebuilt in 1746 on the ruins of an earlier single-aisle covered basilica. Other small churches of the area include the little historic church of St. Anne at Kapsala, built during the period of Ottoman occupation, and the cruciform-shaped Byzantine temple of the SS Theodore at Reouzi (a hamlet of the Municipality of Styra).
