How to Reach Airotel Patras Smart Hotel
HOW TO REACH AIROTEL PATRAS SMART HOTEL Patras Smart Hotel is accessible by private vehicle or public transportation, from the Athens International Airport "El. Venizelos", Kifissos bus station, and through the National Road Athens - Lamia and Athens - Corinth, in the following ways: FROM ATHENS From Athens to Patras. To get to Patras by car from Athens, coming from the capital, select the new National Road Athens - Corinth. After Corinth continue on the right traffic stream to enter the National Highway Corinth - Patras. The total route Athens - Patras is part of the great Olympia Odos motorway. Because of the construction project on track Corinth - Patras traffic speeds are low. The distance from Athens to Patras is about 216 km. FROM ATHENS INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT "EL. VENIZELOS" TO PATRA Starting from the airport enter Attiki Odos and drive to the end of it (at Eleusis). After you exit Attiki Odos, you will automatically enter National Highway Corinth / Patras. If you wish to travel by bus to Patras from Athens International Airport, you can take the bus E93, which leaves from main building of the airport (ports 4-5) and get off Kifissos bus station from where you change bus heading to Patras. From Athens International Airport "El. Venizelos" you can reach Patras by bus and train of OSE (public Greek railways) as well. Take the Athens Suburban Railway to Kiato and then take the bus that leaves every 1 hour from Kiato heading to Patras. FROM PYRGOS, ANCIENT OLYMPIA, KYLLINI, ARAXOS TO PATRAS Access to Patras from these areas is carried out by the National Road Patras - Pyrgos. -

2017 Ifbb Diamond Cup Greece Inspection Report
2017 IFBB DIAMOND CUP GREECE November 18th - 19th 2017 INSPECTION REPORT ELITE PRO QUALIFIER FOR MEN’S BODYBUILDING, MEN’S PHYSIQUE, AND WOMEN’S PHYSIQUE, CLASSIC BODYBUILDING, WOMEN WELLNESS, BODYFITNESS, 1 BIKINI-FITNESS. 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. -

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.

Greece Is 2.133,2 Kms, Increased by 15,8% Compared to the Length of 1.842,8 Kms of 2016
HELLASTRON NATIONAL REPORT TO BE PRESENTED DURING THE ASECAP STUDY AND INFORMATION DAYS LJUBLJANA, 6-8 JUNE 2018 Network length The total length for the entire toll infrastructure network in Greece is 2.133,2 kms, increased by 15,8% compared to the length of 1.842,8 kms of 2016. This length includes tunnels and bridges as well as open highway sections. On this network there are 122 tunnels with a length above 500m (the threshold defined by the tunnel directive 2004/54/EC). The total length of these tunnels is 163 kms (sum of both directions). Openings in 2018 It is anticipated that about 2 more additional kms of toll road sections will become operational in 2018 (at the Rio intersection of Olympia Odos) Near Future Evolution There are still another 105,5 kms under design and construction in order to complete the total network. These sections are the north and south ends of the Central Greece Motorway (“Kentriki Odos” - 94,5 kms) and also the Schimatari – Chalkida link (11 kms) of the “Nea Odos” Concession Motorway. Investments The financial crisis in Greece, which started in 2010, found all five (5) Interurban Motorway Projects under construction. Given that the rehabilitation, upgrading and construction were executed on the basis of Concession contracts, the Lending Institutions discontinued funding and construction slowed down and/or was suspended for about three (3) years. The reset of 4 out of 5 projects, which was initiated in late 2013, was impacted in early 1 2015 by the financial standoff with Greece’s lenders and the banking controls enacted by the new Greek Government, actions that resulted in limiting funding again. -

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. -
