The document discusses 18 Greek sites that are included on UNESCO's World Heritage List, including the Acropolis in Athens, the archaeological sites of Delphi, Olympia, and Mycenae/Tiryns, and several important monasteries. Many of the sites are significant for their architecture, art, and role in the development of classical Greek culture. They showcase Greece's important contributions to philosophy, democracy, theater, and other areas through surviving monuments from antiquity.
The architecture of ancient Greece is the architecture produced by the Greek-speaking people (Hellenic people) whose culture flourished on the Greek mainland, the Peloponnese, the Aegean Islands, and in colonies in Anatolia and Italy for a period from about 900 BC until the 1st century AD.

In this presentation there is significant information for the construction-artifacts that Ancient Greeks created around 5th Century BC and the distructions they have suffered by conquerors. It's a pity when monuments and pieces of History are victims of human conficts.
YoUtopia partners from 8 European countries visited the Temple of goddess Athena, the Parthenon. 2500 years after its constuction and destructions, it still inspires with its architectural perfection. Apart from the monument itself, one can have a full view of the city of Athens from above. The Acropolis Hill monuments are the Greek history and represent a golden era of prosperity during the Golden Age of Pericles, the 5th century BC

Characterization and the Kinetics of drying at the drying oven and with micro...Open Access Research Paper
The objective of this work is to contribute to valorization de Nephelium lappaceum by the characterization of kinetics of drying of seeds of Nephelium lappaceum. The seeds were dehydrated until a constant mass respectively in a drying oven and a microwawe oven. The temperatures and the powers of drying are respectively: 50, 60 and 70°C and 140, 280 and 420 W. The results show that the curves of drying of seeds of Nephelium lappaceum do not present a phase of constant kinetics. The coefficients of diffusion vary between 2.09.10-8 to 2.98. 10-8m-2/s in the interval of 50°C at 70°C and between 4.83×10-07 at 9.04×10-07 m-8/s for the powers going of 140 W with 420 W the relation between Arrhenius and a value of energy of activation of 16.49 kJ. mol-1 expressed the effect of the temperature on effective diffusivity.
UNDERSTANDING WHAT GREEN WASHING IS!.pdfJulietMogola
Many companies today use green washing to lure the public into thinking they are conserving the environment but in real sense they are doing more harm. There have been such several cases from very big companies here in Kenya and also globally. This ranges from various sectors from manufacturing and goes to consumer products. Educating people on greenwashing will enable people to make better choices based on their analysis and not on what they see on marketing sites.
