Ναι» από το ΚΑΣ στις μελέτες για την εξασφάλιση των πρανών του λόφου Καστά στην Αμφίπολη

Τετάρτη, 02 Σεπτεμβρίου, 2015

Με θετικό πρόσημο «πέρασαν» χθες από το Κεντρικό Αρχαιολογικό Συμβούλιο οι μελέτες για την εξασφάλιση των πρανών, την αποστράγγιση των υδάτων, τη συντήρηση επιχρισμάτων, αλλά και των τριών δαπέδων του ταφικού μνημείου στον λόφο Καστά στην Αμφίπολη.

Κυρίως, όσον αφορά τη μελέτη για την εκτέλεση των χωματουργικών εργασιών που θα εξασφαλίσουν τα πρανή γύρω από τον λόφο-τύμβο, τα μέλη του ΚΑΣ τη χαρακτήρισαν «άρτια και ταχύτατη», δεδομένου και του χρόνου σύνταξής της, καθώς η αρμόδια ομάδα εργασίας για την εκπόνηση του έργου προστασίας, αποκατάστασης και τελικής ανάδειξης του μνημείου συστάθηκε τον Μάιο 2015.

Στη συνεδρίαση δεν παραβρέθηκε η ανασκαφέας του μνημείου, προϊσταμένη της Εφορείας Αρχαιοτήτων Σερρών, Κατερίνα Περιστέρη, λόγω ξαφνικής αδιαθεσίας που την οδήγησε σε τριήμερη αναρρωτική άδεια. Ωστόσο, η ίδια, με έγγραφό της, ζήτησε να αναβληθεί η χθεσινή συζήτηση για τις χωματουργικές εργασίες και τη διευθέτηση απορροής των ομβρίων, καθώς, όπως διατύπωσε, επιθυμούσε να τοποθετηθεί καλύτερα στα παραπάνω. Ταυτόχρονα, εξέφρασε τις επιφυλάξεις της στην προτεινόμενη κατάχωση τμήματος του περιβόλου (που δεν αφορά το μαρμάρινο τμήμα, αλλά 100 μ. πωρόλιθου στα δυτικά του μνημείου).

Όμως, τόσο ο αρχιτέκτονας του μνημείου, Μιχάλης Λεφαντζής, όσο και η συντονίστρια της ομάδας εργασίας για το μνημείο, γενική διευθύντρια Αναστήλωσης του ΥΠΠΟ, Ευγενία Γατοπούλου, έκαναν σαφές ότι το θέμα δεν χωράει αναβολή.

Λουκέτο στο ιστορικό σχολείο «Μιχαλοπούλειον», έπειτα από 83 χρόνια λειτουργίας.

Τρίτη, 01 Σεπτεμβρίου, 2015

Λουκέτο έβαλε ένα από τα πλέον ιστορικά ιδιωτικά σχολεία, το Μιχαλοπούλειον του Πειραιά, έπειτα από 83 χρόνια λειτουργίας. «Η απόφασή μας είναι οριστική» δήλωσε, εμφανώς συγκινημένος, στο ΑΠΕ-ΜΠΕ, ο ιδιοκτήτης του εκπαιδευτηρίου, Ευάγγελος Πλαφουτζής.

Ο λόγος της απόφασης, όπως εξηγεί ο κ. Πλαφουτζής, είναι η οικονομική κρίση. «Η επιβολή του ΦΠΑ ήταν το κερασάκι στην τούρτα» σημειώνει, ενώ ήδη το εκπαιδευτήριο είχε δεχθεί πολύ μεγάλη πίεση από τους περιορισμούς στις κινήσεις κεφαλαίων που επιβλήθηκαν τον περασμένο Ιούλιο και το κλείσιμο των τραπεζών. Η διαρροή των μαθητών, πάντως, είχε ξεκινήσει νωρίτερα. «Πριν από τέσσερα χρόνια είχαμε 600 μαθητές. Η περυσινή χρονιά έκλεισε με 200» αναφέρει ο ιδιοκτήτης του σχολείου, γιος της ιδρύτριας, ο οποίος διευθύνει το εκπαιδευτήριο από το 1969.

Το Μιχαλοπούλειον ιδρύθηκε το 1931 από τη Γιούλα Μιχαλοπούλου-Πλαφουτζή, πτυχιούχο δασκάλα του Αρσακείου Διδασκαλείου. Το σχολείο της, όχι μόνο επέζησε στη γερμανική κατοχή, αλλά λειτούργησε και ως καταφύγιο των μαθητών του και των οικογενειών τους κατά τη διάρκεια των βομβαρδισμών. Από τις τάξεις του πέρασαν χιλιάδες Πειραιώτες, πολλοί από τους οποίους διέπρεψαν στην ενήλικη ζωή τους στον επαγγελματικό ή τον κοινωνικό στίβο.

Οι πρώτες εγκαταστάσεις του δημοτικού, τη δεκαετία του '30, δημιουργήθηκαν στην Καλλίπολη, κοντά στον ναό της Αγίας Μαρίνας, ο οποίος έδωσε στο σχολείο και την αρχική του ονομασία: Ιδιωτικόν Δημοτικόν Σχολείον Μιχαλοπούλου-Πλαφουτζή «Η Αγία Μαρίνα». Λίγα χρόνια αργότερα, το σχολείο θα μετονομαστεί σε «Μιχαλοπούλειον» από το πατρώνυμο της ιδρύτριας, ενώ στη συνέχεια θα εξελιχθεί σε πλήρη εκπαιδευτική μονάδα με γυμνάσιο και λύκειο, με τη δημιουργία νέων υποδομών.

Τα τελευταία χρόνια, το Μιχαλοπούλειο περιελάμβανε και βρεφονηπιακό σταθμό, ο οποίος, επίσης, παύει να λειτουργεί. Σύμφωνα με τους συνδικαλιστικούς εκπροσώπους των ιδιωτικών εκπαιδευτικών, το λουκέτο στο εκπαιδευτήριο θα οδηγήσει στην ανεργία περισσότερες από 60 οικογένειες. «Η Ομοσπονδία είχε προειδοποιήσει με επιστολές της προς τους αρμόδιους υπηρεσιακούς παράγοντες και με επίσημες ανακοινώσεις της, ότι το συγκεκριμένο μέτρο (σ.σ. της αύξησης του ΦΠΑ στο 23%) θα αποτελέσει την ταφόπλακα για το μεγαλύτερο αριθμό μικρών και μεσαίων ιδιωτικών σχολείων στη χώρα» αναφέρεται σε σχετική ανακοίνωση της Ομοσπονδίας Ιδιωτικών Εκπαιδευτικών Λειτουργών Ελλάδας, ενώ προειδοποιεί για «ανυπολόγιστες συνέπειες».

"We will reduce our own taxes, do not let the European Union to tell us what to cut," said Italian Prime Minister Matteo Renzi, in today's interview with Italian radio Rtl 102,5.

More specifically, the Italian prime minister said: "When I have to talk about immigration in Brussels are all holidays. When discussing taxes, they wake up together. Their taxes would reduce our own. We will not allow the European Union to tell us what to cut. " "Results seem, and this year in Brussels made a great heat," he added meaningfully Renzo.

The intervention relates to stop community leaders who, in the past days, let it leak that the priority for Italy, is to reduce taxes on labor rather than that of real estate.

In relation to migration, the head of the Italian Government added that there have been two debates in bright tone in the European session, while those who stated that "Italy wanted to put his gun on his temple other countries", he replied: "If there was Italy, the European ideal would have died. Hence, before talk about our country should wash their mouths. "

The Matteo Renzi finally advocated one single policy that can save the lives of migrants to repatriate anyone who is not entitled to asylum and to provide for the proper slot. "

Θα μειώσουμε μόνοι μας τους φόρους, δεν αφήνουμε να μας πει η Ευρωπαϊκή Ένωση τι πρέπει να κόψουμε», δήλωσε ο Ιταλός πρωθυπουργός Ματέο Ρέντσι, σε σημερινή συνέντευξή του στο ιταλικό ραδιόφωνο Rtl 102,5.

«Θα μειώσουμε μόνοι μας τους φόρους, δεν αφήνουμε να μας πει η Ευρωπαϊκή Ένωση τι πρέπει να κόψουμε», δήλωσε ο Ιταλός πρωθυπουργός Ματέο Ρέντσι, σε σημερινή συνέντευξή του στο ιταλικό ραδιόφωνο Rtl 102,5.

Πιο αναλυτικά, ο Ιταλός πρωθυπουργός τόνισε: «Όταν πρέπει να μιλήσουμε για την μετανάστευση, στις Βρυξέλλες είναι όλοι διακοπές. Όταν γίνεται συζήτηση για φόρους, ξυπνούν όλοι μαζί. Τους φόρους τους θα τους μειώσουμε μόνοι μας. Δεν θα αφήσουμε να μας πει η Ευρωπαϊκή Ένωση τι να κόψουμε» . «Απ΄ότι φαίνεται, και φέτος, στις Βρυξέλλες, έκανε μεγάλη ζέστη», πρόσθεσε με νόημα ο Ρέντσι. 

Η παρέμβασή του αυτή αναφέρεται στην στάση κοινοτικών ιθυνόντων οι οποίοι, τις περασμένες ημέρες, άφησαν να διαρρεύσει ότι η προτεραιότητα, για την Ιταλία, είναι η μείωση των φόρων στον τομέα της εργασίας και όχι σε εκείνο των ακινήτων. 

Σε σχέση με το μεταναστευτικό, ο επικεφαλής της ιταλικής κυβέρνησης πρόσθεσε ότι υπήρξαν δυο συζητήσεις σε έντονο τόνο στην ευρωπαϊκή σύνοδο, ενώ σε όσους δήλωναν ότι «η Ιταλία ήθελε να βάλει το πιστόλι στον κρόταφο άλλων χωρών», ο ίδιος απάντησε: «Αν δεν υπήρχε η Ιταλία, το ευρωπαϊκό ιδεώδες θα είχε πεθάνει. 'Αρα, πριν μιλήσουν για την χώρα μας πρέπει να πλύνουν το στόμα τους».

Ο Ματέο Ρέντσι, τέλος, τάχθηκε υπέρ μίας ενιαίας πολιτικής, η οποία να σώζει τις ζωές των μεταναστών, να επαναπατρίζει όποιον δεν δικαιούται άσυλο και να προβλέπει και την πρέπουσα υποδοχή».

This bank, an independent organization that is also subsidized by the state, opened its doors last year in Birmingham, central England, with the aim to respond to a lack of donations.

Donors receive a fee of 35 pounds (about 48 euros), a moderate amount, which is not intended to increase.
