Have you considered Reflectance Transformation Imaging (RTI)? It is technique that creates three-dimensional images of numerous types of objects, from small two-dimensional to large three-dimensional. It also allows varying the spectral reflection level. No special equipment is required, just a high quality digital camera, a hand-held flash, and a tripod. Generally for good images, two people are required to take the images. An object can be photographed in 5-10 minutes once the equipment is set up. The images are processed in a special software and viewed in a special viewing software, both of which are available for free. For more information, please visit the following web site.

Hi Kathryn,
I work with two companies who develop these kind of hardware/software imaging systems on a per-client basis, and who are both on the leading edge of developing spherical imaging techniques, one in the macro-imaging world and one in the micr-imaging world.

Both were key presenters at the Fine Conference at CMU sponsored by GIgapan, and specifically focus on these tools. I highly recommend their work. Please contact me and I'll introduce you directly.

Although email and text messaging is the way a lot of business is conducted these days, and let's remember emails are a great vehicle for fraud and scams, why wouldn't the lawyer send a certified letter via snail mail or actually pick up the phone and make a phone call as the first form of contact?? I would hesitate to take the email seriously as well and would probably trash it. Personally, I have had someone hack into my email and ask all my contacts for money b/c I was stranded in Europe!! --Nope sitting safe at home in the US. So, someone could have hacked into this lawyers account and is sending out fraudulent emails--I guess you could call her, or send a letter. Hope it all works out well and without too much hassle.

I have not been following this thread to this point, but am intrigued. There are numerous aspects of the email that are questionable, but a little online research about Eva indicates the following:
http://www.jewishjournal.com/yom_hashoah/article/schwarzenegger_turns_return_of_nazi-looted_art_into_history_lesson_20090413/
In addition to what Kathy suggests, perhaps check with Hearst Castle and Stanford Mansion in Sacramento for additional clues from what appears might be a similar recovery efforts by Ms. Sterzing.
Looking forward to learning what prevails as the truth -- and how it is handled.

Today's challenge: How would you classify a plastic-foam "tomahawk" sold to ballgame attendees to wave around during the game? And what would you call it?
I thought it might go in Personal Symbol, but there's nothing similar listed.
The only naming possibility I've come up with is "souvenir."
Any thoughts?

Hi Graham,
Thanks for all your work with the artist files. Fred and Josie will be filled with glee when I tell them you have begun to set them straight.
While I was searching for nomenclature books/websites that might be useful to you, this email popped up, below, so I took it as a challenge and used the Getty art and architecture thesaurus to try and come up with a classification. I couldn't find anything. Google helped me find the actual article for sale and it was called a "cheering accessory in the shape of a tomahawk"
I don't imagine you will find any foam tomahawks at Jim's house, but still a good exercise of trying to find a name for something that doesn't easily fit into naming conventions.
See you tomorrow
Juliet

I like Lois's answer! However, wouldn't it go into the category of
recreational equipment or personal artifacts? The nomenclature should
reflect the collection it belongs to as well. If this is a personal
collection not related to sports using personal artifacts would be the way
I would go. If it is a collection of sporting memorabilia I would go with
recreational equipment.

Description:
Outdoor sculpture, silver tea service, gold jewelry, axe head, wheel rim

of different popular treatments will be covered along with
recommendations for the least damaging approach to treatment. Care of
Metals provides a simplified explanation of the chemistry and structure
of metals, explaining the importance of the galvanic series and
electrochemistry in care strategies. Starting with an overview of the
history and function of metals and how they are made, the course will
cover guidelines for handling, labeling, exhibiting and storing metals.
An overview of treatments, including cleaning, used on metals and how
appropriate they are for the long-term preservation of the metal object
will help students make care decisions when consulting with conservators.
Logistics:
Participants in Care of Metals work through sections on their own.
Materials and resources include online literature, slide lectures and
dialog between students and the instructor through online forums. The
course is limited to 20 participants.
Care of Metals runs six weeks. To reserve a spot in the course, please

Thank you all for your great ideas! You've really helped me think through this problem-I especially liked Lois' "Thoughtless Native-American Artifact imitation!" Unless something else really inspiring comes along, I think I'll go with "Novelty, promotional." That seems to fit pretty well.
Just to clarify, we have the object because the school in question decided to ditch the Native-American theme and go with something less likely to offend.

Today's challenge: How would you classify a plastic-foam "tomahawk" sold to ballgame attendees to wave around during the game? And what would you call it?
I thought it might go in Personal Symbol, but there's nothing similar listed.
The only naming possibility I've come up with is "souvenir."
Any thoughts?

Thank you all for your great ideas! You’ve really
helped me think through this problem—I especially liked Lois’ "Thoughtless
Native-American Artifact imitation!" Unless something else really
inspiring comes along, I think I’ll go with “Novelty, promotional.”
That seems to fit pretty well.
Just to
clarify, we have the object because the school in question decided to ditch the
Native-American theme and go with something less likely to offend.

Hi Janis,
If you are using
PastPerfect – what about “novelty”?
So glad to see our

Today’s
challenge: How would you classify a plastic-foam “tomahawk” sold to
ballgame attendees to wave around during the game? And what would you call it?
I
thought it might go in Personal Symbol, but there’s nothing similar
listed.
The
only naming possibility I’ve come up with is “souvenir.”
Any
thoughts?

Hi Listers,
We're thinking of redoing our exhibition and are looking for collapsible
and/or movable exhibit panels that can be changed relatively easily. I did
a quick Google search, but most of what I found is for trade show vendors.
Something on wheels would be ideal, so we can move the exhibit into other
areas if we want. They also need to be prefab - nothing custom-built. Any
recommendations for where we might find something like this? Thanks in
advance!

The best movable exhibition panels I've ever found were the MILA modular
wall system.
They were not the cheapest, but they were the most economical because of
ease of use and durability.
The Bethel Woods Museum, in Woodstock, has used them for some time so
you might contact them, or even pay a visit to check them out in person.

Thanks for the plug, Larry, but we're in Bethel, not Woodstock. The Woodstock festival took place here, some 75 miles away from Woodstock (go figure...). And, yes, we love our Mila-wall.
