| savvas re: The Lady Believed To Be From England Patrick Emre, 2009-08-19 The Lady Believed to be from England is a dramatic story set in the stunningly beautiful island of Cyprus. More than just another murder mystery, with some dodgy dealings perpetrated by the Cyprus Judiciary – Firstly that authority’s failure to recognise a sinister piece of corruption, collusion, and treachery under its nose. – Eventually that same authority’s realisation of the hurt felt by those who were the innocent victims. It tells that story of a Cyprus born lady so much loved by all who meet her, and how against all odds, she has pulled about her a great sense, and an even greater ability to help others to hold up their heads. There is much to know about her and her family from her late husband, and those of her second husband. It was this larger than life fellow who recognised the seeds of greatness within her and set about culturing these until they blossomed into an even more marvellous bloom than he had perceived. There are many sides to learn of this vibrant man who laughs when others might cry and creates an aura around him which others want to share. Their blissful life together appears to be something of Utopian proportions and seemed untouchable. However their love for each other and life in general is about to be shrouded in the darkest clouds containing a mixture of criminal injury, corruption, and authoritarian negligence. Now the great resolve they had always previously displayed would be tested to the utmost. Throughout this book there are several digressions which should be thoroughly enjoyed. These are not simply meant as ‘space fillers’ but are solely intended to provide the reader with an insight into the lives of the families and characters. I am sure you will find it interesting and at times very amusing. I must thank my good friend Maggie Muir for her assistance in piecing the story together, and my darling wife who patiently listened for twenty years of promises that one day I’d write a book. |
| savvas re: Tactical Citizenships Theodoros Kouros, 2024-10-01 The idea of citizenship is formed through a dynamic and flexible set of relationships that go beyond a sequence of formal rights and duties. It is recurring in everyday social contexts—in practices that play out in the real world, in the everyday exercises or refusals of citizenship rights, in the purposeful defiance of norms, and in the tactical evasions of duties. This book explores the troubled relationship between a state and its citizens across four different kinds of social spaces in Limassol, Cyprus. Tactical Citizenships is a testament to the tenacity and resourcefulness of marginalized individuals in directing their relations with the state. |

| savvas re: Something Beautiful Happened Yvette Manessis Corporon, 2017-09-12 In this “engrossing peek into a little-known chapter of World War II, and one family’s harrowing tale of finding the lost pieces of its own history” (Karen Abbott, New York Times bestselling author of Liar Temptress Solider Spy), a woman sets out to track down the descendants of the Jewish family her grandmother helped hide seventy years earlier. Yvette Manessis Corporon grew up listening to her grandmother’s stories about how the people of the small Greek island Erikousa hid a Jewish family—a tailor named Savvas and his daughters—from the Nazis during World War II. Nearly 2,000 Jews from that area died in the concentration camps, but even though everyone on Erikousa knew Savvas and his family were hiding on the island, no one ever gave them up, and the family survived the war. Years later, Yvette couldn’t get the story of the Jewish tailor out of her head. She decided to track down the man’s descendants—and eventually found them in Israel. Their tearful reunion was proof to her that evil doesn’t always win. But just days after she made the connection, her cousin’s child was gunned down in a parking lot in Kansas, a victim of a Neo-Nazi out to inflict as much harm as he could. Despite her best hopes, she was forced to confront the fact that seventy years after the Nazis were defeated, remainders of their hateful legacy still linger today. As Yvette and her family wrestled with the tragedy in their own lives, the lessons she learned from the survivors of the Holocaust helped her confront and make sense of the present. In beautiful interweaving storylines, the past and present come together in a nuanced, heartfelt “story of compassion and collective resistance” with “undeniable emotional power” (Kirkus Reviews). |

| savvas re: Greeks without Greece Huw Halstead, 2018-11-13 Faced with discrimination in Turkey, the Greeks of Istanbul and Imbros overwhelmingly left the country of their birth in the years c.1940–1980 to resettle in Greece, where they received something of a lukewarm reception from the government and segments of the population. This book explores the myriad ways in which the expatriated Greeks of Turkey daily understand their contemporary difficulties through the lens of historical experience, and reimagine the past according to present concerns and conceptions. It demonstrates how the Greeks of Turkey draw upon the particularities of their own local heritages in order simultaneously to establish their legitimacy as residents of Greece and maintain a sense of their distinctiveness vis-à-vis other Greeks; and how expatriate memory activists respond to their persecution in Turkey and their marginalisation in Greece by creating linkages between their experiences and both Greek national history and the histories of other persecuted communities. Greeks without Greece shows that in a broad spectrum of different domains – from commemorative ceremonies and the minutiae of citizenship to everyday expressions of national identity and stereotypes about others – the past is a realm of active and varied use capable of sustaining multiple and changeable identities, memories, and meanings. |

| savvas re: Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Mitigation: Microbes, Mechanisms and Modeling Baoli Zhu, Yong Li, Zengmin Chen, Hangwei Hu, Andrian-Stefan Andrei, 2024-05-29 Currently, the global average temperature is projected to increase by 0.2 °C per decade due to past and ongoing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. To limit global warming to 1.5 °C above pre-industrial levels, not only does carbon dioxide (CO2) emission need to reach net zero around 2050, but the emissions of other GHGs also have to reduce substantially. Nitrous oxide (N2O) and methane (CH4) are very important GHGs, and their global warming potentials are 300 and 25 times that of CO2 over a 100-year time scale. Since pre-industrial times, atmospheric N2O concentrations have increased by more than 20%, and CH4 concentrations have nearly tripled to the current 1900 ppb. Studies have suggested that the ongoing increase of atmospheric N2O and CH4 emissions is mostly attributed to microbial activities. |

| savvas re: Secret of the White Rose Stefanie Pintoff, 2011-05-24 The third novel in the Edgar Award–winning detective series set in Gilded Age NYC is “guaranteed to grip readers to the very last page” (Kirkus Reviews, starred review). The murder of Judge Hugo Jackson is out of Detective Simon Ziele’s jurisdiction in more ways than one. For one, it’s high-profile enough to command the attention of the notorious new police commissioner, since Judge Jackson was presiding over the sensational trial of Al Drayson. Drayson, an anarchist, set off a bomb at a Carnegie family wedding, but instead of killing millionaires, it killed passersby, including a child. The dramatic trial has captured the full attention of 1906 New York City. Furthermore, Simon’s assigned precinct on Manhattan’s West Side includes the gritty Tenderloin but not the tonier Gramercy Park, which is where the judge is found in his locked town house with his throat slashed on the night before the jury is set to deliberate. But his widow insists on calling her husband’s old classmate criminologist, Alistair Sinclair, who in turn enlists Ziele’s help. Together they must steer Sinclair’s unorthodox methods past a police force that is so focused on rounding up Drayson’s supporters that they’ve all but rejected any other possibilities. |
