How is the Torah opened?

After the Amidah prayer, as the congregation says the "Brikh Shemei" prayer, one of the congregants opens the Holy Ark. He takes out the Torah scroll and slowly carries it to the Bimah, as the congregants kiss it along the way. The scroll is set down on the Bimah (a special table), and the cloth cover of the scroll is pulled off (see the attached Related Link). Then one of the congregants is called up to the Torah-reading, and after he says the blessing, the scroll is opened.
