«Τρέχουν» οι εργασίες
Νέο κτίριο επιβατών για το αεροδρόμιο Πάφου περί τα τέλη του 2008



Πάφος: Σε λειτουργία, περί τα τέλη του 2008, αναμένεται να τεθεί το νέο κτίριο επιβατών στο αεροδρόμιο Πάφου. Αυτό δήλωσε ο υπουργός Συγκοινωνιών και Έργων, Χάρης Θράσου ο οποίος επισκέφθηκε σήμερα το εργοτάξιο κατασκευής του νέου αερολιμένα της Πάφου. Όπως είπε, η κατασκευή του κτιρίου άρχισε τον Ιούνιο του 2006 και αναμένεται ότι θα συμπληρωθεί και θα τεθεί σε λειτουργία περί τα τέλη του 2008.
Οι κατασκευαστικές εργασίες, παρατήρησε ο υπουργός, προχωρούν με γοργούς ρυθμούς και βρίσκονται τουλάχιστον δύο μήνες μπροστά από το εγκεκριμένο χρονοδιάγραμμα του έργου. Για παράδειγμα, επισήμανε, σήμερα εκτελούνται εργασίες που σύμφωνα με το χρονοδιάγραμμα αναμενόταν να εκτελεστούν αρχές του 2007.

Σύμφωνα με στοιχεία του υπουργείου Συγκοινωνιών, για την κατασκευή του νέου κτιρίου επιβατών θα χρησιμοποιηθούν 11.000 κ.μ. σκυροδέματος, 950 τόνοι οπλισμού, ενώ το συνολικό μήκος των διασωληνώσεων θα είναι 9 km. * Θα διαθέτει επίσης χώρος στάθμευσης για 760 ιδιωτικά οχήματα, 36 λεωφορεία και 84 ταξί.

Το νέο κτίριο επιβατών του αερολιμένα της Πάφου διακρίνεται για το σύγχρονο σχεδιασμό του, είναι μια κατασκευή υψηλών προδιαγραφών, με συνολικό εμβαδόν 18.000 τ.μ. περίπου και χωρητικότητας 2,7 εκ. επιβατών το χρόνο, αναφέρουν τα στοιχεία του υπουργείου. Τα επίπεδα εξυπηρέτησης θα είναι ψηλού επιπέδου, με σταθερή ροή επιβατών, ανεκτές καθυστερήσεις και καλό επίπεδο άνεσης, σύμφωνα με το υπουργείο Συγκοινωνιών και Έργων.

Agent Unkle Bill Lee Reporting On The Island (excerpt from Naked Lunch)

The Island was a British Military and Naval station directly opposite the Zone. England holds the Island on yearly rent-free lease, and every year the lease and permit of residence is formally renewed. The entire population turns out, attendance is compulsory, and gathers at the municipal dump. The President of the Island is required by custom to crawl across the garbage on his stomach and deliver the Permit of Residence and Renewal of the Lease, signed by every citizen of the Island, to The Resident Governor who stands resplendent in dress uniform. The Governor takes the permit and shoves it into his coat pocket:
"Well," he says with a tight smile, "so you've decidedto let us stay another year have you? Very good of you. And everyone is happy about it?... Is there anyone who isn't happy about it?"
Soldiers in jeeps sweep mounted machine-guns back and forth across the crowd with a slow, searching movement.
"Everybody happy. Well that's fine." He turns jovially to the prostrate President. "I'll keep your papers in case I get caught short. Haw Haw Haw." His loud, metallic laugh rings out across the dump, and the crowd laughs with him under the searching guns.
The forms of democracy are scrupulously enforced on the Island. There is a Senate and a Congress who carry on endless sessions discussing garbage disposal and out house inspection, the only two questions overwhich they have jurisdiction. For a brief period in the mid-nineteenth century, they had been allowed to control the dept. of Baboon Maintenance but this privilege had been withdrawn owing to absenteeism in the Senate.
The purple-assed Tripoli baboons had been brought to the Island by pirates in the 17th century. There was a legend that when the baboons left the Island it would fall. To whom or in what way is not specified, and it is a capital offense to kill a baboon, though the noxious behaviour of these animals harries the citizens almost beyond endurance. Occasionally someone goes berserk, kills several baboons and himself.
[...] His presurgery face emerged in an arc-light of incandescent hate....He began to spit curses in the hideous, strangled gutturals of the Island dialect.
The Islanders all profess ignorance of the dialect or fiatly deny its existence. "We are Breetish," they say. "We don't got no bloody dealect."

It's getting darker a lot earlier again. it's raining a lot more too. and for some strange reason the fan on my computer makes a sound like crickets on a hot august afternoon, so occasionally i don't know where i am. no bearings at all in fact. no orientation to speak of. even when sitting in one place, motionless. and i wonder how often do we displace ourselves? and how often do we misplace others?
i've never been one for prayers.
i'd rather cross bridges.

Signification, which is the only function of a word admitted by semantics, reaches perfection in the sign. Whether folksongs were rightly or wrongly called upper-class culture in decay, their elements have only acquired their popular form through a long process of repeated transmission. The spread of popular songs, on the other hand, takes place at lightning speed. The American expression "fad", used for fashions which appear like epidemics — that is, inflamed by highly-concentrated economic forces — designated this phenomenon long before totalitarian advertising bosses enforced the general lines of culture. When the German Fascists decide one day to launch a word — say, "intolerable" — over the loudspeakers the next day the whole nation is saying "intolerable." By the same pattern, the nations against whom the weight of the German "blitzkrieg" was thrown took the word into their own jargon. The general repetition of names for measures to be taken by the authorities makes them, so to speak, familiar, just as the brand name on everybody's lips increased sales in the era of the free market. (Adorno & Horkheimer, Dialektik der Aufklärung)

Last night I accidentally kicked the moon, but it was not full thus it did not roll or spill - Fellini was not a lunatic, no traces of foam off his mouth, when shooting the moon, when listening to it (1990) (Benigni perhaps is), or even Alan Parker that same year he built the wall shot the moon down as well (1982)
Helsinki;
walking down Helsinkinkatu - there are no aliens here, no street, road, place, mews, crescent, avenue, rise, lane, way, grove, park, gardens, alley, arch, path, walk, broadway, promenade, gate, terrace, vale, view or hill, no aliens like George Mikes' 'How to become an alien' (acquired: sept. 2002, on departure by D.) - simply katu (AKA kantouni) or tie - formalism cast concrete resembling the monument To the Conquerors of Space outside the VDNKh in Moscow / pink was faint back then, 'pink is better than black. but the two harmonize', that makes grey, good-grey

the rise of the slightly moustached redish-brown haired ladies

one must always match flights and books

on a plane which fails to take off three times, takes off with an engine that still sounds faulty, this is the captain speaking do not panic, lands again to pick up more weight and again sounds like a disaster when it takes off

I must admit I have read many books. When I disappear, all those volumes will change imperceptibly; the margins will become wider, the thought more cowardly. Yes, I have talked to too many people, I am struck by that now; to me, each person was an entire people. That vast other person made me much more than I would have liked. Now my life is surprisingly secure; even fatal diseases find me too tough. I'm sorry, but I must bury a few others before I bury myself.

on a plane, going back to a new place, with just a pair of trousers, a shirt and a memory stick, [only] the first chapter of the greek translation

Στην περίπτωση της έννοιας του Άλλου ως έκφρασης ενός δυνατού κόσμου στα πλαίσια ενός αντιληπτικού πεδίου, οδηγούμαστε στο να θεωρήσουμε με νέο τρόπο τις συνιστώσες αυτού του πεδίου ως προς αυτό το ίδιο: ο άλλος, χωρίς να είναι πλέον ούτε υποκείμενο του πεδίου, ούτε αντικείμενο εντός του πεδίου, θα αποτελέσει τον όρο βάσει του οποίου αναδιανέμονται όχι τα περιθώρια και το κέντρο, το κινιτό [πράγμα] και το σημείο αναφοράς, το φευγαλέο και το ουσιαστικό, το μήκος και το βάθος...

then, on a flight that resides in the midst of a journey, between waking and sleep, waiting for further feet and trains, so that you lose half of the book because you read it in your sleep, such as

SOPHIST WALLOPS HAUGHTY HELEN SQUARE ON PROBOSCIS. SPARTANS GNASH MOLARS. ITHACANS VOW PEN IS CHAMP
- You remind me of Antisthenes, the prophessor said, a disciple of Gorgias, the sophist. It is said of him that none could tell if he were bitterer against others or against himself. He was the son of a noble and a bond-woman. And he wrote a book in which he took away the palm of beauty from Argive Helen and handed it to poor Penelope.
Poor Penelope. Penelope Rich.
They made ready to cross O'Connell street.

HELLO THERE, CENTRAL!

and on going back, for the first time, with no foolish patience for irrealisms or sufficient reasons, quite willing to abandon literature

Everything here seems chaotic. Do you see those little streams? Not one of them runs in a straight line. And those ponds, which are neither round, nor square, nor oval, nor regular in any shape or form? And all these little pointed particles sticking up like bristles all over the globe and which have torn the skin off my feet? [...] Frankly, what makes me think there is no one here is that, as I see it, no one with any sense would want to live here.

Allocating happiness




In psychology, in the bottomless fraud of mere inwardness, which is not by accident concerned with the 'properties' of men, is reflected what bourgeois society has practised for all time with outward property. The latyer, as a result of social exchange, has been increased, but with a proviso dimly present to every bourgeois. The individual has been, as it were, merely invested with property by the class, and those in control are ready to take it back as soon as universalization of property seems to endanger its principle, which is precisely that of with-holding. Psychology repeats in the case of properties what was done to property. It expropriates the individual by allocating him its happiness. Theodor Adorno, Minima Moralia, #39

'Perfect Light'

There you are, in all your innocence,
Sitting among your daffodils, as in a picture
Posed as for the title: 'Innocence.'
Perfect light in your face lights it up
Like a daffodil. Like any one of those daffodils
It was to be your only April on earth
Among your daffodils. In your arms,
Like a teddy bear, your new son,
Only a few weeks into his innocence.
Mother and infant, as in the Holy portrait.
And beside you, laughing up at you,
Your daughter, barely two. Like a daffodil
You turn your face down to her, saying something.
Your words were lost in the camera. And the knowledge
Inside the hill on which you are sitting,
A moated fort hill, bigger than your house,
Failed to reach the picture. While your next moment,
Coming towards you like an infantryman
Returning slowly out of no-man's-land,
Bowed under something, never reached you -
Simply melted into the perfect light.

-Ted Hughes

Klemeni Epexigisi

Κάτι χειρότερο από άνεργος...

...- αιωρούμενος. Όχι μόνο δεν έχω συγκεκριμένη δουλειά - δεν ξέρω ούτε σε ποιόν επαγγελματικό χώρο ανήκω.

Ποτέ δεν ήξερα. Παντού ένιωθα απ' έξω. Κι αν δεν το ένιωθα εγώ, φρόντιζαν οι εκάστοτε συνάδελφοι να το αισθανθώ. Ούτε οι διαφημιστές παλιότερα με αποδέχθηκαν, ούτε πιο πρόσφατα οι δημοσιογράφοι. Όσο για τους συγγραφείς...

Καμιά φορά ζηλεύω αυτούς που έχουν ένα πλαίσιο εργασίας. Υποχρεώσεις, ωράριο, ιεραρχία, συνδικαλισμό. (Δεν υπάρχει χειρότερος και σκληρότερος εργοδότης από τον εαυτό σου.)

Ανεργία. Όχι επειδή δεν βρίσκω δουλειά. Αλλά επειδή δεν ξέρω που να την ζητήσω.

Πολυβιος Μιχαηλιδης (1907-1960)








Πολυκατοικία Μιχαηλιδη, Ζαϊμη και Στουρνάρη, Αθήνα, 1933-1934


Η πολυκατοικία των αδελφών Mιχαηλίδη ανήκει στα έργα αναφοράς του ριζοσπαστικού μοντερνισμού στη μεσοπολεμική Aθήνας. Eίναι έργο του δεξιοτέχνη Kύπριου αρχιτέκτονα Πολύβιου Mιχαηλίδη και του εκλεκτού συνάδελφου του και καθηγητή στο EMΠ Θουκυδίδη Bαλεντή. (...) H πολυκατοικία έχει έξι στάθμες: ισόγειο, τέσσερις ορόφους και εσοχή. Περιλαμβάνει δύο διαμερίσματα ανά τυπικό όροφο. Ο τελευταίος όροφος και το δώμα έχουν διαμερίσματα διπλού ύψους (duplex).Τόσο η οργάνωση των κατόψεων όσο και η διάρθρωση των όψεων αποτελούν αυθεντικές εκφράσεις του διεθνούς Mοντέρνου Kινήματος .
H γραμμή των όψεων είναι λιτή. Στην πρόσοψη επί της Ζαΐμη επικρατούν οι επιμήκεις συνεχείς ζώνες παραθύρων με μικρούς εξώστες στο δεξί όριο της πολυκατοικίας. Αντίθετα η όψη της οδού Στουρνάρη παρουσιάζει μεγαλύτερη ποικιλία, συνδυάζοντας επιμήκεις εξώστες και εξωστόθυρες.
Ο ορθογώνιος όγκος του κτιρίου ολοκληρώνεται στη στάθμη της εσοχής με pergola.
Τα υλικά διαμόρφωσης των όψεων είναι η σιμεντοκονία αρτιφισιέλ, τα κιγκλιδώματα των εξωστών από μεταλλικό πλέγμα και τα ξύλινα κουφώματα με ρολά. H μεταλλική εξώθυρα της πολυκατοικίας έχει απλή μορφή.

"It's convenient to blame outsiders for the problems. It's not for me to recommend solutions but it's usually a good idea everywhere to look in the mirror and ask what we can do right where we are to mitigate and limit problems that are very serious and have to be overcome."

In his text, the writer sets up house. Just as he trndles papers, books, pencils, documents untidly from room to room, he creates the same disorder in his thoughts. They become pieces of furniture that he sinks into, content or irritable. He strokes them affectionately, wears them out, mixes them up, re-arranges, ruins them.

decalogue

In our morale must lie our strength:
So, that we may behold at length
Routed Apollo’s
Battalions melt away like fog,
Keep well the Hermetic Decalogue,
Which runs as follows:—

Thou shalt not do as the dean pleases,
Thou shalt not write thy doctor’s thesis
On education,
Thou shalt not worship projects nor
Shalt thou or thine bow down before
Administration.

Thou shalt not answer questionnaires
Or quizzes upon World-Affairs,
Nor with compliance
Take any test.
Thou shalt not sit
With statisticians nor commit
A social science.

Thou shalt not be on friendly terms
With guys in advertising firms,
Nor speak with such
As read the Bible for its prose,
Nor, above all, make love to those
Who wash too much.

Thou shalt not live within thy means
Nor on plain water and raw greens.
If thou must choose
Between the chances, choose the odd;
Read The New Yorker, trust in God;
And take short views.
