"No" to banks in complete abolition of capital controls

Greek bankers were extremely wary of the possibility of a complete lifting of capital controls, preferring to be kept as they are for the time being. This opinion was expressed by the heads of the Greek banks during the meeting they had with the Governor of the Bank of Greece Giannis Stournaras, in which the roadmap for the removal of restrictions on the movement of capital was discussed.

The CEOs of Greek banks agreed that the gradual lifting of restrictions should continue, but they expressed their concern at the prospect of an immediate complete withdrawal of the measures, especially of the third pillar, which has to do with the transfer of funds from Greece to abroad.

GOOD MONTH MY FRIENDS

November is the eleventh month of the Gregorian calendar, he's got 30 days and starts every year on the same day that February and March start (with the exception of leap years). In the Roman calendar, he was ninth in line, as his name indicates (novem=nine) The Romans had dedicated it to Poseidon and celebrated the Poseidonia.
For the ancient Greeks, November was the 5th month of the Attic year and had the name "Maimakterion". This name comes from one of the names of God Zeus who was also called "Maimaktis", i.e. stormy. He was the god of the weather, and mortals held a feast in his honor to secure his favor with prayers, so that the weather is not threatening and dangerous for humans and the winds are not particularly fierce.
This month's featured flower is the chrysanthemum and the lucky stone is the topaz.
The most important farm job of the month, not only for the Greeks but for all the peoples of Meof soy, it's the thawing, i.e. the picking of olives for the production of oil. It starts in November and lasts up to three months in some places.
The feasts of the month include the feast of Archangels Michael and Gabriel, of Saint Philip, of Saint Catherine and Saint Andrew. The biggest, Nevertheless, feast of the month is the Entrance of the Virgin on 21 November.
Archangel Michael is considered as "the cat’ angel par excellence" and for this reason in certain areas, on the eve of his feast day, they brought their shoes inside the house so that the Archangel would not see them and come to take them before their time.
Since ancient times, various highly visible celestial objects have warned people as signs of weather changes. The best known example is the open Pleiades star cluster, better known as Puglia. From the time of Hesiod the setting of the Pleiades immediately after the setting of the Sun, which happens in mid-November, marked and marked the period of the coming of cold and warned the farmers to finish sowing.
The rain of lions, spectacular celestial phenomenon, happens every year around 17 November. Our land, during its orbit around the sun, encounters the particle cloud of Comet Temple-Tuttle. Tiny gram-weight particles hit the earth's atmosphere, they ignite and form a ball of light 2 to 3 meters moving at speed 30 to 60 kilometers (also known as a shooting star).

GOOD MONTH MY FRIENDS - HAPPY SUMMER CONTINUATION .....

GOOD MONTH MY FRIENDS - HAPPY SUMMER CONTINUATION .....
August, according to the old Roman calendar, it was the sixth month and in Latin was called Sextilis. The year 8 B.C. Augustus Caesar gave it his name. Originally it had 30 days, but Octavian arbitrarily added another day to it (which he took from February) to keep up with July, which was dedicated to Julius Caesar. It is called, that August put the month in that position, to honor him death of Cleopatra who is believed to have ended her life on 12 Of August 30 e.g..
In our country, the whole of August is dedicated to the Virgin Mary with supplications, fasting, her Dormition, the Meteorites, on the Nine Days and with the deposition of Agia Zoni on 31 August, so the church year ends.
This is the month that nourishes the eleven, for it is the season where everything is in abundance: wheat, corn, the raisin the figs, the walnuts, the fruits, the vegetables, grapes etc. For this reason August has popular names: Psychologist, Pentafas (because they eat five times a day),Waiter, and Drimaris from "drimes" or "drimata" as the first days of the month are called.
The first twelve days of August were also called "days", because they said they foretold the weather: "every day and a month". These days were also known as "strike days". On these days, no one was supposed to go to the sea for a swim, neither wash nor cut grapes and figs.
Finally, the proverbs about August can be divided into two main categories, a’ the ones who say how good he is ("August, my good month, they are born twice a year") and the others that connect this month with the beginning of winter ("since August winter, and summer from March", or “Augustus was afflicted, the end of winter").

The Greek Flag Code consists of some strict rules which must be followed to the letter as a sign of respect for the Flag.

The Greek Flag Code consists of some strict rules which must be followed to the letter as a sign of respect for the Flag. Honor to the Flag reflects honor to the Nation and honor to ourselves.
1. The Greek Flag represents our Nation, our Motherland and our state entity. In case of war the flag must be guarded and protected even with our lives. A typical example of this is the fact that when the Germans occupied Athens on 27 April 1941, the Standard Bearer on the Parthenon, the 17-year-old Kostas Koukkidis wearing the uniform of the Greek youth of the time, rather than handing it over to the Germans, submitted her, and after wrapping her around him, fell with her from the sacred rock of the Acropolis, in the void.
2. In case a flag is worn, then it burns, but it is NEVER thrown in the trash. Only ashes can be thrown in the garbage.
3. The Flag is used only in pride of place on the web. Any other use is prohibited. (B.C. hanging curtain, decorative, garment, etc)
4. During the raising of the Greek Flag we all stand at attention. The Ensign rises quickly. During the Raising of the Flag, the National Anthem is sung.
5. If there are several flags then the Greek flag must be at the same height, or higher than the rest.
6. At the flag submission we stand at attention. The Ensign slows down.
7. During the day of mourning the Flag is flown at half-mast and after the flag-bearer finishes flying, then it proceeds to subduction until the middle of the tissue.
8. It is FORBIDDEN for the Greek Flag to touch the ground for any reason. In case the flag is too big, the hoisting must be done by the flag bearer and with the help of the bystander. The same must be done when lowering the Flag.
