The Greek Bodybuilding and Fitness Federation organizes the “IFBB Diamond Cup Greece” to be held in the City of Athens, November 18th - 19th 2017 WELCOME Greece, the blue gate between East and West, is welcoming all our friends from all over the world to enjoy sports and friendship. Greece has influenced Western and Eastern society more, and more fundamentally than any other nation known to history. No other culture has exerted so perennial and vitalizing impact on later ages, in so many spheres: faith, moral, literature, philosophy, science and aesthetics. Greek ideas, Greek art and architecture, and (even to a surprising extend) Greek language, are all with us today. Numberless banks, colleges and town halls still display formal devices (columns, dentils, pediments) first employed by the Greeks. ATHENS: The host city of the 2017 IFBB DIAMOND CUP GREECE Athens is the historical capital of Europe, with a long history, dating from the first settlement in the Neolithic age. In the 5th Century BC (the “Golden Age of Pericles”) – the culmination of Athens’ long, fascinating history – the city’s values and 2 civilization acquired an universal significance. Over the years, a multitude of conquerors occupied Athens, and erected unique, splendid monuments - a rare historical palimpsest. In 1834 it became the capital of the modern Greek state and in two centuries since it has become an attractive modern metropolis with unrivalled charm.

  • Waste Transfer Station (SMA) for Athens and Neighboring Municipalities” in the Area of Eleonas
    1 Kifissia, July 18th, 2019 HELECTOR is the contractor of the new “Waste Transfer Station (SMA) for Athens and Neighboring Municipalities” in the area of Eleonas The agreement for the project of the “Establishment of the Waste Transfer Station (SMA) for Athens and Neighboring Municipalities” in the area of Eleonas (Western Attica) has been signed by the Athens Municipality (Contracting Authority), the Special Inter-Collective Association of the Prefecture of Attica (E.D.S.N.A.) (Owner of the Project) and HELECTOR S.A., as Contractor. The total contract price is 10,839,005.15€ plus VAT and includes the design, construction and delivery in full operation of the Waste Transfer Station (SMA) in the area of Eleonas, in Western Attica, at a property of 20 acres approximately, owned by E.D.S.N.A. The Central Waste Transfer Station (SMA) has a key role in the basic infrastructure of the Regional Plan for the Management of Solid Waste in Attica, following the up-to-date legal and social requirements. The local waste collection systems’ process will be upgraded, thus creating environmental benefit, by limiting the circulation of waste collection vehicles, by reducing the aerial emissions and by supporting the effective operation of the landfill. In addition, the new Station (SMA) will adapt to the requirements of the Regional Plan for the Management of Solid Waste (PESDA) of Attica. With the opportunity of HELECTOR’s selection as a Contractor for the project, the CEO of HELECTOR, Mr. Haris Sofianos stated: «We are very pleased to undertake one more project towards the integrated solid waste management in Attica, supporting the evolution of the wider Regional Plan for the sector’s modernization.

  • The Athens Earthquake (7 September 1999): Intensity Distribution and Controlling Factors
    Engineering Geology 59 (2001) 297±311 www.elsevier.nl/locate/enggeo The Athens earthquake (7 September 1999): intensity distribution and controlling factors E. Lekkas* Department of Geology, University of Athens, Panepistimioupoli Zografou, 15784 Athens, Greece Received 20 June 2000; accepted for publication 14 December 2000 Abstract The Athens earthquake, Ms 5:9, that occurred on 7th September 1999 with epicenter located at the southern ¯ank of Mount Parnitha (Greece, Attiki) according to instrumental data, is attributed to the reactivation of an ESE±WNW south- dipping fault without sur®cial expression. The earthquake caused a large number of casualties and extensive damage within an extended area. Damage displayed signi®cant differentiation from place to place, as well as a peculiar geographic distribution. Based on geological, tectonic and morphological characteristics of the affected area and on the elaboration of damage recordings for intensity evaluation, it can be safely suggested that intensity distribution was the result of the combination of a number of parameters both on macro and microscale. On the macroscale, the parameters are the strike of the seismogenic fault, seismic wave directivity effects and to an old NNE±SSW tectonic structure, and they are also responsible for the maximum intensity arrangement in two perpendicular directions ESE±WNW and NNE±SSW. On the microscale, site foundation formations, old tectonic structures buried under recent formations and morphology are the parameters that differentiated intensities within the affected area. q 2001 Elsevier Science B.V.

  • Vassilis Arapoglou,* Thomas Maloutas**
    The Greek Review of Social Research, special issue 136 C´, 2011, 135-155 Vassilis Arapoglou,* Thomas Maloutas** SEGREGATION, INEQUALITY AND MARGINALITY IN CONTEXT: THE CASE OF ATHENS ABSTRACT This paper focuses on the contextual factors that shape the dynamics and the patterns of segregation in Athens. Migration and changes in the ethnic composition of the working class have not produced more segregation and widespread marginality, because employment opportunities and affordable housing were available in socially mixed areas. Attention, is drawn, however, to the dynamics of social polarization, the concentration of housing inequality and deprivation which have been reshaping the social map of the city since the 1990s. The suburbanization of higher social categories has been enhancing isolation of wealthy enclaves in the east and in parts of the centre. The indigenous working class population on the western periphery has become socially and spatially entrapped. At the same time a deprived and ethnically diverse population, has been concentrating in central, north-western and south-western districts. Keywords: segregation, immigration, ethnic segregation, Athens 1. INTRODUCTION: SEGREGATION IN THE INTERNATIONAL LITERATURE The definition of segregation is simple according to human geography dic- tionaries (Johnston et al., 1986: 424) and seems to have a general, inter- contextual, applicability (“The residential separation of subgroups within a wider population”). This simple metaphor from genetics, that subsequently *Assistant Professor of Sociology, University of Crete, Greece. ** Professor of Social Geography, Ηarokopio University, Greece. 136 VASSILIS ARAPOGLOU, THOMAS MALOUTAS became the dominant meaning of the term, owed its success to the fact that it reflected the conditions of the booming American metropolis of the first half of the 20th century.

  • Long-Term Post-Fire Vegetation Dynamics in Pinus Halepensis Forests of Central Greece
    Plant Ecology 171: 101–121, 2004. 101 © 2004 Kluwer Academic Publishers. Printed in the Netherlands. Long-term post-fire vegetation dynamics in Pinus halepensis forests of Central Greece: A functional group approach Dimitris Kazanis1 & Margarita Arianoutsou2,∗ 1Botanical Museum & Department of Ecology and Systematics, Faculty of Biology, University of Athens, 15784 Athens, Greece; 2Department of Ecology and Systematics, Faculty of Biology, University of Athens, 15784 Athens, Greece; ∗Author for correspondence (e-mail: [email protected]) Key words: Aleppo pine, Dispersal, Diversity, Growth form, Resilience, Succession Abstract A hierarchical approach for plant functional classification was applied to describe long-term vegetation change in Pinus halepensis burned forests. Plant species were initially grouped according to their growth form and afterwards data on species modes of regeneration, persistence and dispersal, together with some other specific competitive advantages were explored, resulting in the identification of 29 different functional groups, 14 for woody and 15 for herbaceous species. Three types of Pinus halepensis forests were identified, according to the structure of the understorey. For each forest type, a post-fire chronosequence of communities was selected for sampling. Data sampling was performed for at least two consecutive years in each community, so as to reduce the shortcomings of the synchronic approach and to increase the age range of each chronosequence. Even though the vast majority of the functional groups proved to be persistent throughout the post-fire development of vegetation, their species richness and abundance did not remain stable. An increase of annual herb richness and abundance was recorded in the first years after the fire, with the leguminous species forming the dominant functional group.
