Treasures from the Royal Tombs of Ur

By: University of Pennsylvania. Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology

This stunning catalogue includes color photographs of more than 230 objects, excavated in the 1930s by renowned British archaeologist Sir Leonard Woolley, from the third-millennium-B.C. Sumerian city of Ur. Learn the fascinating story of the excavation and preservation of these magnificent artifacts. Many of the objects are published in color and fully described for the first time—jewelry of gold and semiprecious stones, engraved seal stones, spectacular gold and lapis lazuli statuettes and musical instruments; and vessels of gold, silver, and alabaster. Curator Richard Zettler sets the stage with a history of Ur in the third millennium and the details of the actual excavations. Art historians Donald Hansen and Holly Pittman discuss the historical importance and significance of the many motifs on the most spectacular finds from the tombs.

Trilobites of Black Cat Mountain

By: George P. Hansen

A photographic guide to Oklahomas Devonian trilobites. The geological history of Coal County, Oklahoma. Descriptions of rock formations where trilobites are found. Excavation and restoration of trilobites. A photographic atlas of the Lower Devonian trilobites of Oklahoma, with helpful information to aid in their identification. Trilobites are a well-known fossil group, possibly second most famous only to dinosaurs. With their easily fossilized exoskeleton, they left an extensive and diverse fossil record. They began a drawn-out decline to extinction during Late Devonian time, when all but one of the trilobite orders died out. This meticulously researched reference guide is a photographic atlas and descriptive compendium on the trilobites of Coal County, Oklahoma. The species described lived during the Lower Devonian in a shallow tropical ocean that had advanced over the landscape of North America. More than twenty species are exquisitely preserved in Oklahomas limestone rocks. Each species is carefully illustrated, including thorough descriptions, so that those familiar and unfamiliar can understand and appreciate these amazing creatures. The most current scientific research on these trilobites is also included. For those wishing to pursue a deeper interest in trilobites, a comprehensive bibliography lists hundreds of sources of information for further study.

Viglets

Ode to Dumbness

By: Viggo P. Hansen

VIGLETS Two - Ode to Dumbness" seeks to ease widespread global tensions resulting from dumb people, which includes everyone - and is seemingly increasing exponentially. The author gently guides readers into creating personal dumb Viglets - intimate odes, totally unrestricted by archaic rules of grammar - you simply let your emotions on dumbness "hang out" and get instant relief for your suffering psychic. Readers can easily relate to personal dumbness and find themselves creating insightfull Viglets worthy of sharing. Issues like; drivers on cell phones, failing to signal, politicians whose only job seems to be get re-elected, professionals with alphabet soup titles and management styles are discussed. What they all have in common is, you are right - dumbness. Too often media (all of them) are loaded with lengthy - in depth - analysis scaring you into worrying about how your sewer pipes are leaking and our world is going to rack and ruin by having a drink or two. Viglets cut to the chase with pithy ditties that express emotionally charged personal feelings about issues without in depth and breaking details. Viglets bring a sense of calmness and balance even dummies can appreciate.

Paradox Lost

Rediscovering the Mystery of God

By: Richard P. Hansen

Too often the tensions and unanswerable questions of Scripture and the Christian life are seen as barriers to faith. In Paradox Lost, pastor and author Richard Hansen shows that they are exactly the opposite -- indeed, God’s mysteries are one of the places where we may encounter him most closely. In exchange for Enlightenment-based rationalism that can stunt spiritual imagination, Hansen invites readers to: Discern that there is a hiddenness to God that can be inviting rather than threatening Appreciate that God is far greater than we sometimes assume, and to adjust our mental maps to make more space for awe Realize that faith and reason are not enemies but rather dance partners that complement one another Hansen examines three kinds, or “orders” of biblical paradox, each at a deeper level than the last, demonstrating for readers that paradox is both endemic to modern life and also a natural part of the landscape of Christian faith. Paradox Lost doesn’t seek to solve or justify paradox; instead, it looks through paradox toward what it reveals--namely a holy, mysterious, and awesome God.

Viglets - Time, Infinity, Eternity

By: Viggo P. Hansen

Viglet III, Time, Infinity & Eternity - explores these concepts from many perspectives. It dares address the question - is there such a thing as "time" or is "time" simply a jumble of numbers needed to pass Physics 101? If "time" is not puzzling enough then consider infinity and eternity. How pervasive is "time" - if it exists? Do other living things like ameba, puddy cats and petunias have a concept of time? Would humans have a sense of time if we didn't whip around the sun at fairly regular intervals? Since these are tough topics the only way to share our thoughts is through Viglets.
