Η εγκάρδια συνομιλία Κούδα-Μητσοτάκη 

στο περίπτερο του ΠΑΟΚ 

Με τον «Μεγαλέξανδρο» του ελληνικού ποδοσφαίρου, Γιώργο

 Κούδα, συνομίλησε ο Κυριάκος Μητσοτάκης κατά την

 επίσκεψή του στο περίπτερο του ΠΑΟΚ στη ΔΕΘ.

Ο πρόεδρος της ΝΔ, μετά το πέρασμά του από τα περίπτερα του Άρη και του Ηρακλή,

 βρέθηκε και σε αυτό του «Δικεφάλου του Βορρά». Εκεί τον περίμενε ο μεγάλος 

Γιώργος Κούδας, ο Θοδωρής Ζαγοράκης (ευρωβουλευτής της ΝΔ, παλαίμαχος

 παίκτης του ΠΑΟΚ) και άλλοι παράγοντες της ομάδας.

«Πού 'σαι, ρε Γιώργο;», είπε ο Κυριάκος Μητσοτάκης στον «Μεγαλέξανδρο» του

 ελληνικού ποδοσφαίρου, «πού είσαι, πρόεδρε;», ανταπάντησε ο Γιώργος Κούδας, 

που έδωσε ως δώρο στον κ. Μητσοτάκη το έμβλημα του ΠΑΟΚ με τον δικέφαλο

 αετό και μια μπάλα υπογεγραμμένη από όλους τους ποδοσφαιριστές της ομάδας.

«Θα βοηθήσουμε να ξεπεραστούν όλα τα εμπόδια για το νέο γήπεδο του ΠΑΟΚ»,

 υποσχέθηκε ο Κυριάκος Μητσοτάκης στον Γιώργο Κούδα, με τον οποίο είχε

 εγκάρδιο χαιρετισμό και συνομιλία. 

«Θα ήθελα να ευχηθώ στον ΠΑΟΚ καλή δύναμη, καλή επιτυχία στην Ευρώπη, στο

 Europa League. Το καινούργιο γήπεδο να είναι ένα γήπεδο κόσμημα αντάξιο της 

ιστορίας ενός μεγάλου συλλόγου, αλλά και ένα γήπεδο που θα σηματοδοτεί την

 πορεία του ΠΑΟΚ στο μέλλον. Εύχομαι να είμαι εγώ αυτός που θα το εγκαινιάσει.

 Θα έχετε την αμέριστη στήριξή μας και θα συνεχίσουμε την προσπάθεια που έχει 

ξεκινήσει. Θα ξεπεράσουμε τα εμπόδια και ο ΠΑΟΚ θα αποκτήσει το γήπεδο που 

του αξίζει», είπε επίσης ο πρόεδρος της Νέας Δημοκρατίας.

Από την πλευρά του, ο Γιώργος Κούδας του ευχήθηκε στην επόμενη τετραετία να

 είναι πρωθυπουργός και να εγκαινιάσει αυτός το νέο γήπεδο του ΠΑΟΚ, όπως ο

 Κωνσταντίνος Καραμανλής το 1959 εγκαινίασε το πρώτο γήπεδο του ΠΑΟΚ.

Salesforce billionaire Marc Benioff 

to buy Time magazine

Time magazine is changing hands once again, nearly eight months after it was sold to US media group Meredith Corporation.

The co-founder of Salesforce.com, Marc Benioff, and his wife are personally buying Time for $190m (£145.3m).

In a statement, Meredith said the Benioffs "will not be involved in the day-to-day operations or journalistic decisions".

The deal could close within a month but must first get regulatory approval.

Mr Benioff - who is chairman, co-chief executive and co-founder of the cloud computing firm Salesforce.com - said that he and his wife have deep respect for the organisation and its iconic brand.

"The power of Time has always been in its unique storytelling of the people and issues that affect us all, and connect us all," he tweeted.

The Benioffs take over the publication at an uncertain time for print media. Time has cut its circulation and struggled with declining advertising revenues. 

Meredith only completed its purchase of parent company Time Inc in January and moved to sell some its most well-known magazine titles soon after. 

Mr Benioff, who is worth $6.7bn according to Forbes, is the latest tech figure to acquire a traditional print publication. 

Amazon chief executive Jeff Bezos bought the Washington Post in 2013. Last year, Laurene Powell Jobs, philanthropist and widow of Steve Jobs, acquired a majority stake in The Atlantic magazine.
