  • Fotballproff I Utlandet En Eksplorerende Historisk Undersøkelse Av Norges Utenlandsproffer I Fotball Gjennom Tidene
    Marius Letting Larssen Fotballproff i utlandet En eksplorerende historisk undersøkelse av Norges utenlandsproffer i fotball gjennom tidene Masteroppgave i idrettsvitenskap Seksjon for coaching og psykologi Norges idrettshøgskole, 2011 k Forord Helt fra meget ung alder har jeg hatt en lidenskap for det meste innenfor sportsverden. Statistikk er en ting som alltid har fanget min interesse, og da spesielt tabeller, rankinger, lister og ulike fascinerende fotballigaer. Da jeg som 6 åring i 1992, måtte se vekk da Tyskland presset for utligning mot Danmark i EM-finalen, og min far senere måtte ta fra meg fjernkontrollen med bakgrunn i en ekstrem kartlegging av NRKs sportstabeller på tekst-tv, skjønte jeg fort at dette ville bli en lidenskap. Jeg har alltid hatt en glede av å studere ekspertutøvere, disse er en fryd for øyet og nærmest uimotståelige å studere. Tenk på de nådeløse slagene Roger Federer utfører på gressteppet i Wimbledon, den avslappende og kalkulerende stilen Lewis Hamilton har på de forræderske rundene i Monaco, presisjonen og fatningen Tiger woods har på den nydelige St. Andrews banen, eller de sjarmerende fintene Cristiano Ronaldo gjør i den elektriske stemningen på Santiago Bernabeu. Å gjennomføre en masteroppgave symboliserer stolthet og ikke minst en stor mestringsfølelse. Gleden er stor når et kapittel i livet nå skal avsluttes, etter 5 fine år med idrettsutdanning. Det er med en blandet følelse av brutal lettelse, og store forventninger til arbeidslivet man skal starte et nytt kapittel i livet. Likevel er det mange personer som fortjener en hyllest! Først og fremst må jeg rette en stor takk til min veileder, førsteamanuensis Geir Jordet for hans bidrag til denne studien.

Christos Mars for creating such a wonderful resource for Acolytes and allowing us to customize it for our use here at St. Demetrios. 2 Acolyte PLEDGE HEAVENLY HIGH PRIEST JESUS CHRIST— I, an Acolyte of the Annunciation Cathedral, solemnly promise to serve You faithfully, obediently, and reverently. Let nothing separate me from You. If I am weak in my faith, strengthen me. Help me to devote myself to Your Holy Gifts. Guide me in the path that leads to Your Kingdom. Teach me to become a better Christian so that I may wear the Altar Boy’s robe worthily and in humility. My prayer is to serve You in all my thoughts, words and deeds and to become a better Orthodox Christian so that in all I do I may testify to Your glory. For blessed is the Holy Trinity, the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit now and forever and unto the ages of ages Amen. 3 FOR THOSE SERVING IN THE HOLY ALTAR 1. Remember that you serve in the holiest and most sacred part of the Church. Being in the Altar is a rare honor and privilege. You are close to Jesus Christ and His Holy Angels. You are at the Altar Table where the sacrificial offering of the precious Body and Blood of Christ is made. 2. Christ wants those who serve Him in the Altar to be reverent and clean in body and soul.
