The Epistle of St The Epistle of St. Demetrios Greek Orthodox Church APRIL 22909 Center Ridge Road, Rocky River, Ohio 2016 Pastoral Thoughts by Fr. Jim Doukas On Holy Friday afternoon, we witness one of the most symbolic sacred services of the Orthodox Church – the Un-Nailing service. It speaks for itself through the large Crucifix, the embroidered Epitaphios (Holy Tapestry) with Christ lying in His Grave decorated with flowers on the Kouvouklion. Traditionally, this th is the service attended by children and their parents, because it April 24 is so simple, colorful, educational, and most of all, extremely 8:30 a.m. Orthros~9:30 a.m. Hierarchal Divine impressive to the eyes who see Jesus’ death and burial in such a vivid way. But all are encouraged to attend. Liturgy with His Eminence Metropolitan Savas When we take His most precious Body from the Cross that remained all night in Church, and take off the nails from His Traditional Plaki Luncheon to follow in the hands and feet, we wrap it in a white linen sheet- just like those Metallinos Cultural Hall emotional moments of a man named Joseph, who placed it into $15.00 For Baked Fish plate the Tomb. This is done when the priest reads a long Gospel with $8.00 For Pasta Marinara plate 61 Bible verses: “Joseph of Arimathea, a respected member of the council, who was also himself looking for the kingdom of Salad ~ Rolls ~ Soft Drinks ~ Coffee God, took courage and went to Pilate, and asked for the body of Sponsored by the Youth Choir Jesus.

The priests carry the special embroidered Epitaphio tapestry over their heads and go slowly around the church interior, while the congregation kneels. Finally, it is placed in the Kouvouklion, the large flowery wooden grave in front of the Holy Altar, along with a Gospel.

Then put on a head cover, foot covers, surgical scrubs, and a yellow plastic gown. Next, if one is available, the N95 mask. Fitting it to your face will be the most important 10 seconds of your day. It will protect you, and it will make your head throb. Then, a surgical mask over the N95. A face shield and gloves.

ALL RIGHTS RESERVED. GREEK 1. Σιθωνία 2. Η Σιθωνία είναι το δεύτερο «πόδι» της Χαλκιδικής, όπως συνηθίζεται να αποκαλείται, η μεσαία δηλαδή από τις τρεις χερσονήσους της (δυτικά βρίσκεται αυτή της Κασσάνδρας και ανατολικά του Άθω). Το όνομά της το οφείλει στον μυθολογικό βασιλιά της περιοχής Σίθωνα, γιο του Ποσειδώνα και της Όσσας. 3. Είναι ένας τόπος με ξεχωριστή ομορφιά και ακτές που φτάνουν τα ογδόντα επτά χιλιόμετρα μήκους. Δυτικά βρέχεται από το Σιγγιτικό κόλπο και ανατολικά από τον Τορωναίο, ενώ στο κέντρο της μακρόστενης αυτής λωρίδας γης υπάρχει το βουνό Ίταμος, ή αλλιώς Δραγουντέλης, δημοφιλής χειμερινός προορισμός. Υπάρχουν πολλά μέρη για να επισκεφθεί κανείς, όπως η αρχαία πόλη, το κάστρο και ο Ναός του Αγίου Αθανασίου στην Τορώνη, ο ναός του 16ου αιώνα στη Νικήτη, καθώς και οι ανεμόμυλοι στη Συκιά. Την λίστα των προς επίσκεψη περιοχών συμπληρώνουν και τα διάφορα παραδοσιακά ψαροχώρια, όπως το Πόρτο Κουφό, που είναι το μεγαλύτερο και ασφαλέστερο φυσικό λιμάνι σε ολόκληρη τη χώρα. 4. Τα παράλια της Σιθωνίας παρουσιάζουν εξαιρετικό ενδιαφέρον και ποικιλία όλο το χρόνο, με πιο χαρακτηριστική εικόνα την άσπρη αμμουδιά και τα πεύκα που φτάνουν μέχρι μόλις λίγα μέτρα από το νερό. Γνωστές παραλίες είναι το Αζάπικο, η Τριστινίκα, ο Κόρακας, ο Μαραθιάς, και άλλες. Ιδιαίτερης ομορφιάς τοπίο όμως, είναι τα Καρτάλια, που βρίσκονται στο νοτιότερο τμήμα της χερσονήσου, με ακτές γεμάτες βράχια. 5. Πέρα όμως από τα τοπία, η Σιθωνία έχει να προσφέρει και μια ιδιαίτερα ζωντανή ζωή, με πλήθος πολιτιστικών και αθλητικών εκδηλώσεων, θαλάσσια σπορ, ιππασία στα πευκοδάση και νυχτερινή ζωή παρόμοια με της Μυκόνου.

Reducing and gradual elimination of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions is the best and only solution. Buildings, districts, and cities are responsible for a significant portion of GHG emissions, and concepts such as sustainability, energy efficiency, and renewable energies support the transition towards zero-carbon districts.

    THE MAKING OF SULTAN SÜLEYMAN: A STUDY OF PROCESS/ES OF IMAGE-MAKING AND REPUTATION MANAGEMENT by NEV ĐN ZEYNEP YELÇE Submitted to the Institute of Social Sciences in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History Sabancı University June, 2009 © Nevin Zeynep Yelçe 2009 All Rights Reserved To My Dear Parents Ay şegül and Özer Yelçe ABSTRACT THE MAKING OF SULTAN SÜLEYMAN: A STUDY OF PROCESS/ES OF IMAGE-MAKING AND REPUTATION MANAGEMENT Yelçe, Nevin Zeynep Ph.D., History Supervisor: Metin Kunt June 2009, xv+558 pages This dissertation is a study of the processes involved in the making of Sultan Süleyman’s image and reputation within the two decades preceding and following his accession, delineating the various phases and aspects involved in the making of the multi-layered image of the Sultan. Handling these processes within the framework of Sultan Süleyman’s deeds and choices, the main argument of this study is that the reputation of Sultan Süleyman in the 1520s was the result of the convergence of his actions and his projected image. In the course of this study, main events of the first ten years of Sultan Süleyman’s reign are conceptualized in order to understand the elements employed first in making a Sultan out of a Prince, then in maintaining and enhancing the sultanic image and authority. As such, this dissertation examines the rhetorical, ceremonial, and symbolic devices which came together to build up a public image for the Sultan. Contextualized within a larger framework in terms of both time and space, not only the meaning and role of each device but the way they are combined to create an image becomes clearer.

  • What Is a Healthy Weight?
    What Is A Healthy Weight? Your weight can affect your health and the way you feel about yourself. How much you weigh mainly depends on your lifestyle and your genes. A healthy weight is a weight that does not create health or other problems for you. Many people think this means they need to be thin or skinny. But being as “skinny” as a fashion model may not be what is healthy for you. Not everyone can or should be thin. But with the right choices, everyone can be healthier. Is my weight healthy? Use the chart below to find the maximum weight that is healthy for your height.
