Описание: For 60 years Qumran research has been focused on epigraphy, exegesis, and the historical sources of the Dead Sea Scrolls. The manuscripts are now published and accessible, and research is turning in a positive way to the archaeology of the site and its context. The time has come to provide researchers with a complete documentation. The excavator, Roland de Vaux, had given preliminary reports and a valuable interpretation made in the immediate aftermath of the excavations. Since considerable progress has been made in the archeology of Hellenistic and Roman Palestine, however, Qumran has to be reassessed and the interpretation objectively verified.Volume IIIA presents an up-to-date archaeological reconsideration: a shorter and more precise chronology, in which the earthquake of 31 BC is deleted; the concept of an Essene community is challenged, owing to the lack of a suitable infrastructure; the cemetery itself is connected with a Jewish diaspora scattered around the Dead Sea. Other facilities strengthen the Jewish character of the site, however. The function of Qumran fits better with the rites of a pilgrimage on the occasion of the festivals of Passover and Pentecost.In the second part, the peripheral Essene facilities, expanded around an earlier Hellenistic center, are analyzed and described. The essay seeks to outline their internal consistency and to determine their function. The restoration of a stratigraphy, by cross-checking the excavation archives, leads to a redistribution of pottery in four levels in a more precise chronology.The reconsideration makes use of anthropology, which opens up the archaeological field and throws additional light on the manuscripts.

Описание: BUILD, EVALUATE OR REDESIGN YOUR SUPPLY CHAIN TRANSACTIONS USING THE PLAYBOOK APPROACH In -PLAYBOOK- the authors apply their decades of experience with procurement, supply chains, contract management and risk mitigation to provide a well-defined methodology for safely and effectively entering into and managing supply chain transactions from -cradle to grave-. There is often a gap between the theory of supply chain management and its actual application in a contracting or commercial context. In -PLAYBOOK-, the authors bridge that gap and provide a clear process for engaging in sound supply chain transactions in a manner best suited to each organization's unique needs. -PLAYBOOK- offers a disciplined 49 step pathway for building or improving an organization's supply chain transactions while managing risk and upholding the integrity of the contractual relationship. How well those transactions are entered into, as well as managed, is a critical but often overlooked risk management function. As so aptly stated in the Foreword written by Dr. Darren Prokop, Professor of Logistics at the College of Business and Public Policy - University of Alaska Anchorage: -Humbert and Mastice understand that supply and demand chains are not just linkages through which inputs and finished goods move to their ultimate customer; rather, they are means by which people meet, negotiate and contract with each other.- -PLAYBOOK- identifies and explains 49 steps that an organization can follow either as a model or to modify its own supply chain transaction processes. By using or adapting the -PLAYBOOK- steps, an organization can build or improve its own Playbook, unique to itself but based on sound protocols. -PLAYBOOK- also creates the opportunity to position the organization for consistency, efficiency, risk avoidance and improvement in today's highly competitive, ever-changing global supply chain environment. Once an organization institutes a Playbook, it can not only adjust to change but also anticipate, adapt and take advantage of change while carefully managing the specter haunting every transaction, namely: RISK.

Their commentary is illuminating for anyone who deals with those types of provisions. I have practiced law for more than 35 years. I wish that a resource like this had been available to me when I began to practice. I recommend it wholeheartedly to anyone, lawyer or non-lawyer, who would like to increase his or her understanding of commercial contracts."Richard Cogen, Esq.PartnerNixon Peabody, LLPOTHER BENEFITS OF THIS BOOKThis book also facilitates the creation of a project or transaction specific Contract Management Plan. ("CMP"). A CMP is essentially an internal document prepared by either the Company or the Contractor for use by their respective employees in managing the transaction that is the subject of the Contract. The CMP is not shared with the other party since it deals exclusively with the internal considerations and mechanics associated with one party's administration and management of its rights and responsibilities under the Contract. The CMP supplements the Contract and also permits a documented methodology for applying lessons learned from past transactions.

Experience can be hard and expensive to come by and this book provides a concentrated dose of experience that immediately raises the reader's level of sophistication and awareness for gaps and traps while providing practical solutions to pitfalls that can haunt any organization. Left unchecked, these pitfalls can lead to dysfunction and confusion; both of which can be an expensive proposition in today's competitive and uncertain economic environment.
