The Life & Times of Poopsie, Muma's Pen is an animation - come to life, of a dear sweet woman whose pen comes alive! It is a comedy of lovable motherly pangs towards her insincere but adorable little pen. The muma loves to write. Her pen, who has come alive, is sickeninly (but most lovingly) proud of his most special (7 year old) self. He is a boy...and he'd never know he was made of the pen-family, and so... All the precious antics that go along with a 7 y.o. and a muma (who has held him her whole life), who writes - to fill in the gaps of her unmarried, overweight, lonesome (paranoid) life - come into play... as a comedy, unfortunately. You'd never know it; for she lies and lies and life (...
What is language? How did it originate and how does it work? What is its relation to thought and, beyond thought, to reality? Questions like these have been at the center of lively debate ever since the rise of scholarly activities in the Islamic world during the 8th/9th century. However, in contrast to contemporary philosophy, they were not tackled by scholars adhering to only one specific discipline.

The book Presargonic Period (2700-2350 BC) provides editions of all known royal inscriptions of kings who ruled in ancient Mesopotamia down to the advent of King Sargon of Akkad. Most of the inscriptions come from the city states of Lagsh and Umma; inscriptions from other sites are rather poorly attested. The volume includes a handful of new inscriptions recently uncovered in Iraq. Information on museum numbers, excavation numbers, provenances, dimensions, and lines preserved in the various exemplars are displayed for multi-exemplar texts in an easy-to-read tabular form. Also included in several commentary sections are notes on the find-spots of the inscriptions from Lagas and references about various toponymns to be discussed in a forthcoming study of the author on the geography of Lagas and Umma provinces. Indexes of museum numbers, excavation numbers, and concordances of selected publications complete the volume.
