RE-SKILLING THE WORKFORCE FOR THE DIGITAL AGE
An ever growing need for skilled workers and an even more quickly changing business landscape has led to an increase in
skill gaps as mature economies face the challenge of high unemployment. The only rational approach to this challenge is to
increase learning and development efforts in order to create a learning culture.

Bomb explodes outside a Bank of Greece building in central Athens
A bomb exploded outside a Bank of Greece building in central Athens before dawn on Thursday, causing some damage but no injuries.
The blast came hours before Greece was to return to the international bond markets for the first time in four years, and a day before German Chancellor Angela Merkel was to visit Athens.
The explosion was heard throughout the area, a largely commercial zone which is one of the Greek capital's most central, a few blocks away from the Greek parliament.
It was preceded by two anonymous calls to a news website and a newspaper warning that a bomb had been planted in a car outside the central bank building.
As dawn broke, television footage showed the charred remnants of a car in the middle of the street, with only two wheels still recognisable.
Debris was strewn around and forensic experts in white coveralls began combing through the blast site and inspecting the wreckage.
Greece has a long history of domestic militant groups who plant usually small bombs late at night that rarely cause injuries.

Sparta (Doric Greek: Σπάρτα, Spártā; Attic Greek: Σπάρτη, Spártē) or Lacedaemon (/ˌlæsəˈdiːmən/; Λακεδαίμων, Lakedaímōn) was an unmistakable city-state in old Greece, arranged on the banks of the Eurotas River in Laconia, in south-eastern Peloponnese. Around 650 BC, it rose to end up the overwhelming military area power in old Greece.
Given its military pre-greatness, Sparta was perceived as the general pioneer of the joined Greek strengths amid the Greco-Persian Wars. Somewhere around 431 and 404 BC, Sparta was the essential foe of Athens amid the Peloponnesian War, from which it developed successful, however at awesome expense of lives lost. Sparta's thrashing by Thebes in the Battle of Leuctra in 371 BC finished Sparta's noticeable part in Greece. Nonetheless, it kept up its political autonomy until the Roman success of Greece in 146 BC. It then experienced a long stretch of decrease, particularly in the Middle Ages, when numerous Spartans moved to live in Mystras. Advanced Sparta is the capital of the Greek territorial unit of Laconia and an inside for the preparing of products, for example, citrus and olives.
Sparta was one of a kind in old Greece for its social framework and constitution, which totally centered around military preparing and incredibleness. Its tenants were named Spartiates (Spartan nationals, who delighted in full rights), mothakes (non-Spartan free men raised as Spartans), perioikoi (freedmen), and helots (state-claimed serfs, subjugated non-Spartan neighborhood populace). Spartiates experienced the thorough agoge preparing and training regimen, and Spartan phalanges were generally thought to be among the best in fight. Straightforward ladies delighted in impressively a larger number of rights and correspondence to men than somewhere else in the traditional world.
Sparta was the subject of interest in its own particular day, and also in the West after the restoration of established learning. This adoration or reverence of Sparta is known as Laconism or Laconophilia. At its top around 500 BC the measure of the city would have been somewhere in the range of 20,000 – 35,000 free inhabitants, in addition to various helots and perioikoi (occupants around). At 40,000 – 50,000 it was one of the biggest Greek urban areas; notwithstanding, as per Thucydides, the number of inhabitants in Athens in 431 BC was 360,000 – 610,000, making it impossible that Athens was littler than Sparta in fifth century BC. The French classicist François Ollier in his 1933 book Le illusion spartiate (The Spartan Mirage) cautioned that a noteworthy insightful issue in regards to Sparta is that all the surviving records of Sparta were composed by non-Spartans who frequently exhibited a too much admired picture of Sparta. Ollier's hypothesis of the Austere delusion has been broadly acknowledged by researchers.

Reactions after Eurobank and National Bank included on ECB list
Athens' residents on Sunday reacted to news that two Greek banks have failed to pass asset reviews and stress tests carried out by the European Central Bank (ECB).
Greek banks Eurobank and National Bank of Greece were among 13 European banks that failed an in-depth review of their finances, and will have to increase their capital buffers against losses.
The ECB said that although the two banks fell short of the stress tests, they later significantly made up for their shortfall.
They have two weeks to tell the ECB how they plan to increase their capital buffers.
The Greek government expressed their satisfaction that, even though the banks failed, they did much better than originally expected.
The asset review and stress tests pave the way for the ECB to take over on November 4 as Europe's central banking supervisor.
The test is supposed to make sure hidden troubles in the system are fixed before landing in the ECB's lap.

The tribute to the renowned set designer-director and former GNO Artistic Director is completed with an extended exhibition on his work, that will run from February 4th to March 10th 2018, Monday to Sunday 09.30-21.00, at the National Library of Greece Patio (4th floor) at the Stavros Niarchos Foundation Cultural Center. The exhibition is co-organised by the Greek National Opera, the National Bank of Greece Cultural Foundation (MIET), the National Library of Greece and the Stavros Niarchos Foundation Cultural Center. The exhibition is a donation by the Stavros Niarchos Foundation.
Curator of the exhibition, visual artist Adonis Volanakis, apprenticed to Stefanos Lazaridis and collaborated with him at the English National Opera. Stefanos Lazaridis' tribute exhibition is the first solo exhibition of his artistic oeuvre globally. Lazaridis, based in London, extended the range of scenography to dramaturgical visual spaces, by raising meaningful questions rather than giving “scenographic solutions”, not only on Europe’s most important operatic stages but also in bigger spaces, like stadiums, where he designed historical performances breaking away from all conventional designs.
The exhibition unfolds a visual timeline starting from the beginning of his career with paintings of set and costume designs, in which one can discern the influences from his apprenticeship with Nicholas Georgiadis, another world-wide famous artist; it continues with works of mixed techniques, collages and models, as well as videos from performances and interviews. The exhibition has a playful character and is completed by photographs from his own research on visual arts, his director’s notes on texts and letters. What is highly impressive in his work is the fact that it is hard for anyone to tell the difference between the photographs of his exceptionally detailed models and the photographs of the actual performances.
The most common leitmotif in Lazaridis’ work is the cube; that is also the inspiration of the exhibition.
Artistic Director of the Greek National Opera, Giorgos Koumendakis, who programmed and organized the Stefanos Lazaridis tribute, notes: Our three-year artistic programming moves towards a renewal path that will expand the prospects that Stefanos Lazaridis' tenure at the Greek National Opera opened up. In this exhibition, the Greek audience will have the opportunity to discover the range of his work, through models, photographs and archive material that covers nearly forty years of creation. A small homage to the renowned Greek opera artist, who left a lasting imprint.
