Impressive! Bigger than imagined! Breathtaking! Beautiful! Amazing!Have you ever seen a thylacosmilid, entelodont, or chalicothere?

Download or read book The Ark Before Noah written by Irving Finkel and published by Anchor. This book was released on 2014-03-25 with total page 446 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The recent translation of a Babylonian tablet launches a groundbreaking investigation into one of the most famous stories in the world, challenging the way we look at ancient history. Since the Victorian period, it has been understood that the story of Noah, iconic in the Book of Genesis, and a central motif in Judaism, Christianity and Islam, derives from a much older story that existed centuries before in ancient Babylon. But the relationship between the Babylonian and biblical traditions was shrouded in mystery. Then, in 2009, Irving Finkel, a curator at the British Museum and a world authority on ancient Mesopotamia, found himself playing detective when a member of the public arrived at the museum with an intriguing cuneiform tablet from a family collection. Not only did the tablet reveal a new version of the Babylonian Flood Story; the ancient poet described the size and completely unexpected shape of the ark, and gave detailed boat building specifications. Decoding this ancient message wedge by cuneiform wedge, Dr. Finkel discovered where the Babylonians believed the ark came to rest and developed a new explanation of how the old story ultimately found its way into the Bible. In The Ark Before Noah, Dr. Finkel takes us on an adventurous voyage of discovery, opening the door to an enthralling world of ancient voices and new meanings.

But if millions of us work together to save our own patch of earth—then we really have a shot. How do we do it? With Acts of Restorative Kindness (ARK). An ARK is a restored, native ecosystem. It’s a thriving patch of native plants and creatures that have been allowed and supported to re-establish in the earth's intelligent, successional process of natural restoration. Over time, this becomes a pantry and a habitat for our pollinators and wild creatures who are in desperate need of support. These ARKs will become the seeding grounds for our planet’s new story. They will be sanctuaries for our shared kin—the rooted and unrooted—and safe havens for the magic and abundance of the natural world. Most importantly, the ARK-building actions are within our control and laid out here in We Are the ARK. In these inspiring pages, discover how one person’s actions can effect big change in this world. Even the tiniest postage stamp patch of land matters! Together we are building a patchwork quilt of life that will wrap its way around this planet.

Download or read book How to Build an Ark written by Martin Crump and published by Ark Project Leadership Limited. This book was released on 2012-09-19 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about changing the way you look at projects, sharing a completely new way of running them. A way that focuses on people and leadership rather than the nuts and bolts of tasks. That approach was fine in the past, but now, with the rapid changes in the working environment and the technology supporting it, we need a less complex way, a way that values people. Before the industrial age changed how we lived our lives, people were still able to build great cathedrals, they made tremendous leaps in scientific understanding. From biblical times, there's a great example of project management, in Noah's Ark. Noah was given a crystal clear purpose and detailed specification, with the "how" left up to him. In this post-industrial age, perhaps it is time to return full circle, to emphasise the value of leadership, providing space for the project team to deliver. As you read, you will learn about the really important stuff of leading a project, a simple three step process to get you from A to Z. You will discover what should be taken care of at each step on your journey. You'll find out about the tools and techniques, along with how to use them, at each step along the way.
Download or read book Building an Ark for Texas written by Walt Davis and published by Texas A&M University Press. This book was released on 2016-09-16 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recounted through the eyes of a major participant, this book tells the story of the Dallas Museum of Natural History from its beginning in 1922 as a collection of specimens celebrating the plants and animals of Texas to its metamorphosis in 2012 as the gleaming Perot Museum of Nature and Science. The life of this museum was indelibly influenced by a colorful staff of scientists, administrators, and teachers, including a German taxidermist, a South American explorer, and a Milwaukee artist, each with a compelling personal investment in this museum and its mission. From the days when meticulously and skillfully prepared dioramas were the hallmark of natural history museums to the era of blockbuster exhibits and interactive education, Walt Davis traces the changing expectations of and demands on museums, both public and private, through an engaging, personal look back at the creation and development of one exceptional institution, whose building and original exhibits are now protected as historical landmarks at Fair Park in Dallas.
