Just about every agriculture crop has been hit hard and nearly, if not totally, destroyed. Sometime before, Chris had met a couple guys taking pictures there who were familiar with Underground Ozarks and knew about me. It was of the large room below the smokestack with huge machinery it, and it definitely captured the coolness of the decaying plant. It sort of looked like a courtyard, although it had never actually been one. I got three pairs of them out and passed them out and we were on our way. This action settles . As the person got closer, I could tell from the baggy clothes that the person, a guy, was definitely no cop. It was probably thirty or so feet up from the water, and I was tempted to shed my clothes and have Hiccup take some video of me bailing into the river from it. Fatigue and complacency can cause farmers to let their guard down. While we were talking, Chris mentioned about a building next door that was supposed to have some kind of sub-basement in it. From there, we went over to the base of one of the smokestacks, which extended about eighty feet or so up from the roof. Ironically, Foreign Cinema was already paying dishwashers and other employees more than the state minimum wage, so the increase went mostly to waiters who were . If we'd waited just a few minutes longer we would've been busted for sure. The water, however, looked about five or six feet deep, so there was no point in breaking out the waders we'd brought with us. Unfortunately, I made a few errors in my plans. Judging by the looks of it, a bum had apparently been using this part as their apartment. Appliances affected include ranges, ovens, air conditioners and dishwashers. We headed out the way we'd come, stopping to take a few pictures of the exterior of the building, then we headed back to our cars and called it a night. In fact, it had been burned so recently that the tires were still smoking. But, as we were leaving, we watched a cop drive over to where we'd had it hidden in the bushes. It was large compared to the others with two stories, and it was either a department store or a clothing store. The signs posted on some of the plastic said they were doing asbestos removal. Nearby there was a nifty looking smokestack, but there didn't seem to be any way inside it. There was some random graffiti and markings on the wall for the freight, but that was about it. And if I fell, I'd go straight through a skylight below, then three stories down into a room full of rusty machinery. Aid will be available next month to farmers in counties that were declared disaster areas for. When I finally reached the ground, I was pale and felt like I was going to throw up. Usually, the shop still had its sign outside to tell us what it had been, but sometimes they didn't and sometimes we just weren't familiar with the name. In fact, it had been burned so recently that the tires were still smoking. I told them if I'd known they were going to be there, I would've brought three more pairs of waders from my vehicle for them. We were just thankful and made a hasty retreat back to the resort we were staying at. We spent a little while climbing around on everything and ended up on a nice long section that stuck way out over the river. One of the walls had a gap between the top and the ceiling, so I jumped up and hauled myself through the opening. This time, I had my waders as well as several pair of cheap vinyl waders I'd bought for everyone else to use. At the bottom of the tunnel, a rusted air vent gave way enough for me to slip inside, although it was a dirty experience. I started making my way down the ladder as quick as I could, and the rungs again cracked and bent underneath me, just a hair away from breaking altogether. I didn't see a nice big nail sticking out of the ashes, and I stepped right onto it and drove it nice and deep into my foot. They were mostly empty, with some junk, although one contained tanks for what was probably once a sprinkler system. The floor was mostly stable, but we could tell what parts weren't pretty easily.

He led us around to where Armour Meat was, since I didn't know the way there myself, then we parked and started loading up our gear. We weren't really even sure which end of the mall we'd come in from, and we were reluctant to look down at the end of the mall where the strange person had been trying for unlocked doors.

We followed one of the conveyor belts on the structure down underground to a flooded little chamber with a sealed tunnel at the rear. But, the National Cotton Council vice president of economic policy analysis notes,. From there, we wandered around a bit until we came to another set of escalators going up. Then we'd attach the rope to whatever we could up there and rappell back down. I told them if I'd known they were going to be there, I would've brought three more pairs of waders from my vehicle for them.

We've added courses on security, collections management, care of specific materials and archaeology. The first three months of 2007 are posted on our web site, www.museumclasses.org . New Short Courses New to www.museumclasses.org this year are short courses - one week on one topic. For those of you on a budget, the short courses give you a taste of our full classes. Participants receive course readings at the beginning of the month. This provides a week to bone up before an "Ask the Experts" chat at 11 a.m. Eastern Time (New York) the second Wednesday of each month. Be prepared to participate your questions and comments make this a rich experience. No more than 20 participants can join, so sign up early to reserve a place. The first three Short Courses of 2007 are: January: MS 001 The Problem with Plastics As we march boldly toward the 22nd century, artifact collecting includes that most fragile of materials - plastic. Not only is it in our collections, but it's used to house our collections, too. What problems have you seen? What problems have others seen? What materials are best? What can we, as caretakers, do to minimize long-term damage? Join Helen for our first mini-course of the season. Bring any questions you have about plastics in your museum. February: MS 008: Buy-In: Getting All of the Staff to Support Preservation All too often, preservation is left to one or two staff members and others believe it doesn't apply to them. Everyone must buy into the notion of preservation. But how? Readings will introduce some ideas and participants in this course will brainstorm with Helen Alten and others about what works, what might work - and what doesn't. March: MS 002: Collection Protection Are you Prepared? Disaster planning is overwhelming. Where do you start? Talk to Terri Schindel about how to get going. Use her checklist to determine your level of preparedness. What do you already have in place? Are you somewhat prepared? What can you do next? Participants in Collection Protection will read literature and complete a checklist before joining a one-hour chat to discuss disaster preparedness at their institutions. Short courses and take about 10 hours of a student's time. Their cost is $75.

MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Folks: I admit it. I had an ulterior motive for producing the East Carolina University online project journal. In addition to introducing this particular group of students and the training they received in underwater archaeology to the world I had a question I wanted to answer. Does any of this stuff matter? Is anyone impacted by seeing this stuff online? It’s a tough question. One does not necessarily want to face the fact that despite all the hard work, in the end it may have been a pointless exercise. As part of a scholarship of teaching and learning project (or SoTL as it’s practitioners call it) for a graduate class at George Mason University I decided to study whether or not doing an online project journal actually did what I hoped it might, namely encourage underwater archaeologists to publish the results of their research online. I wanted to see if there was any change in the students, their professors, the audience, and lastly me. To that end I interviewed the students and professors and conducted a survey of the audience. The results of this project are now incorporated into the project journal which is now in its final few weeks. I created a page discussing my findings that includes short video segments from my interviews with the students and faculty. I also included the related portion of the survey results. To visit the project journal click the “Learning Assessment” link in the left side navigation bar. In a way I consider this to be an ongoing learning experience for me. I would welcome comments on the page from all the different members of this audience. Here is the link to the Journal: http://www.uri.edu/artsci/his/mua/project_journals/pj.html Please send comments to: [log in to unmask] Since much of the recent survey pertained to other areas of the website I have also included some of the comments we received on the blog portion of our site.

We are researching for a client museum -- and what you *don't* find is as revealing and important as what you do find! We expected to find some exhibits made here in the US and there are some very good ones, discovered with your help. We also hoped to find more exhibits created elsewhere, but perhaps there are not so many list subscribers in other countries. Maybe I inadvertently limited the search, too, by failing to mention the request includes *virtual exhibits* as well. I would like to make a second request, by way of continuing the search outside the US, and trigger a viral look-see: Would you each please forward my original request, including the category of virtual exhibits, to at least one museum colleague or aquaintance living outside the US: Hello, I am looking for information about traveling exhibits, originating anywhere on the planet, in which the subject is: a particular woman, or women's roles, or women's topics. This can include virtual exhibits also. By not being any more specific in my query, I hope you will think freely and direct me to a variety of such thematically related exhibits, which I can then continue to research online. Thank you for your help!

Contact Heritage Preservation to receive an application, or download an application from Heritage Preservation's Web site, www.heritagepreservation.org. The postmark deadline for applications is December 1, 2006. Eligible participants will be accepted into the program on a first-come, first-served basis. CAP provides assessments funds for small to mid-sized museums to hire a professional conservator for a two-day site visit. The CAP assessor examines the museum's collections, environmental conditions, and sites and will write a report recommending priorities to improve collections care. The resulting CAP report can help your institution develop strategies for improved collections care, long-range planning, staff and board education, and fund-raising. If your museum is located in a historic building (50 years or older), CAP will support the participation of a preservation architect as well. Zoos, aquariums, nature centers, botanical gardens, and arboreta may have one of their CAP assessors look at conservation needs of their living collections. CAP is administered through a cooperative agreement between the Institute of Museum and Library Services and Heritage Preservation.

Some are more verbal than others, but, generally speaking, we enjoy the collegiality of the list. It seems appropriate to me--especially in light of a couple of requests today--that it's time to start the First Annual Museum-L Gift Exchange. We aren't going to draw names or anything like that. I've a much simpler plan. Consider it a holiday exchange, whether yours is Chanukah, Christmas, Hajj/Eid al Fatr, Solstice, Kwanza, or simply the Life is Good Society! If each represented museum/institution donates at least one item, what an amazing collection this will be!!! To join in on the gift exchange, go to http://groups.yahoo.com/group/MuseDocs Sign in (or sign on), and then go to the Files link on the left side of the screen, http://groups.yahoo.com/group/MuseDocs/files/ On the right side of the screen, in the box, choose "Add File" and click on that. This will take you to the menu where it says Browse in a box on the left. Click on that to find the file on your computer you would like to share with the group. Double click on the file so that it populates the box next to file name, then go down to the Description box. Tell us what type of document it is. Is it the Guest Curator policy asked for today? Is it some sort of a form? Let us know what it is. Then scroll down to where it says Notification, and click in the box to put an arrow in it. Once you've done those steps, click on Upload File. If you upload successfully, it will tell you. Then just come to Museum-L and announce to the group what it is your institution shared. Please don't put up anything confidential or with a copyright issue. Now that you're in the Files section, take a look and see what's there that may be of value to you. You can download anything that is stored there. Imagine how much easier your job will be in 2007 if each of you just contributed one helpful tool, policy, or other helpful document to Museum-L's erstwhile share drive. Yahoo has a virus scan to it's documents, so they will most probably be safe (hackers can do marvelous things--not!--so there is no 100% guarantee of safety). Are you ready? 1-2-3 let the gift giving begin!

At an ever-increasing pace, in every aspect of our work, external trends define the directions of institutional mission and impact its success. Decisions about why and what to collect, audiences to target, and exhibitions and programs to develop turn on a host of factors - demographics and social inclusion, economic tourism, and raising test scores to name a few. This year, we seek session proposals exploring the impact of present and future trends on the museum environment. How do the trends you see and experience - both broader public trends and trends in the museum profession - shape your institution's mission and its relationships to its community? How does your institution gather, assess and use trends to its advantage? What is working for you? What isn't? Sessions can be practical or theoretical in nature. While we welcome standard presentation/panel format session proposals, we are looking for a broad range of creative formats such as roundtable discussions, debates, critiques and hands-on activities. We encourage you to present different or opposing approaches/solutions to an issue or trend in the same session. In developing a session with multiple presenters, we strongly urge you to partner with representatives from various museum disciplines. Submitting a Proposal The deadline for session proposals is December 1, 2006. Proposals must be submitted electronically to [log in to unmask] Please visit www.upstatehistory.org to download the session proposal form. The UHA/ MANY program committee will review proposals and decisions will be made by mid-January 2006. We also welcome general comments or suggestions for topics you would like to see covered at the conference. Questions If you have any questions or are looking for assistance with developing a proposal, contact UHA program coordinator Jenny Rosenzweig at 800.895.1648, [log in to unmask] or MANY director Anne Ackerson at 518.273.3400, [log in to unmask] About the UHA/MANY Annual Conference The UHA/MANY Annual Conference is the largest gathering of museum professionals in the state.

Just saw the trailer! how fun..  (Doesn’t  the museum usually come alive after closing?)
David


I've seen the previews a couple of times and can hardly wait for it's December opening.  It looks like one to which to take the grandkids, so I thought you MIGHT to know about the movie, entitled "A Night at the Museum".  It has an all-star cast and looks delightful.  You may get questions about it, and it would seem to me it should spark "A Night at the Museum" sleepovers.  I know some of you have them, but it would be a good way to market yourself and tie to the movie's probable success.

My institution is sorting through our archived records and would like to access information from our now-defunct old database, J.R. Blackaby's Museum System. The database was copied onto CDs back in 1997 but no one thought to print a hard copy of the records (kinda short-sighted) and now we are unable to locate even a copy of the software to open the disks. Thus, our records are being held hostage. A google search of the program has not yielded any helpful information. Help! Does anyone currently (or in the past) used this program or know how to get in contact with Mr. Blackaby? Any advice is greatly appreciated. P.S. I just phoned The Museum System (TMS) to find out if they are affiliated in any way and unfortunately, they are not.

Kohn has written an interesting article on the "Our Body: The Universe Within" exhibit to be shown at the New Detroit Science Center. The article ( http://www.freep.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20061128/ENT05/611280305 ) looks at the exhibit, controversy, and thoughts of exhibiting human body parts. The bodies have undergone a process called plastination, and the exhibit is developed by Universe Within Touring Co. They expect 50,000 visitors a month during its run from January 13th to Memorial Day, according to the article. Now my comments. I acknowledge the educational value of bodies used in medical education and research. I acknowledge the educational value of a cursory examination of human remains when accidentally discovered before proper re-internment. I am not opposed to educational study. That said, I am opposed to the display of human remains in museums. I have seen exhibits, such as the Science Museum of Minnesota, which had slices of human bodies between glass (or something smiler), which could make a claim to an educational value, and I remember the mummy's hand on display at the Witte museum in San Antonio, (smell the mummy's hand!) which I found revolting. As a Native American, I am perhaps a bit more sensitive to seeing humans on display. There was a history of disrespect shown toward native remains, and those from other non-European cultures. Fortunately, that has mostly passed. The bodies for the exhibit come from China, and although they gave their bodies to science, I still don't think a museum exhibit is an appropriate use for a dead body. I do not know if they were aware if the scientific use included museum exhibits. I am curious as to how others feel about exhibiting bodies and body parts in museums. Can you separate your professional and personal views on this issue (I cannot)? Is the display of bodies a legitimate item, or is it just another way to keep the turnstiles revolving? Will today's educational exhibit be looked at in the future with disdain as the way we now consider the display of human remains from other cultures (such as Indians, mummies from Egypt, or African Tribes). And a quick note to the Science Museum of Minnesota and The Witte Museum. I think you both have great museums, I just disagree with the exhibits I saw, which were about five and ten years ago respectively. I do not know if they are still there. I just used your institutions since they were the first two I remembered. --------------------------------- Access over 1 million songs - Yahoo!

It's just disrespectful. There are some very gray areas where bodies of the accidentally-preserved have been found, such as the bog bodies, the "ice man" found in the Alps and the remains from Pompeii, where examination of them does lead to some very significant scientific and historical discoveries and display is very educational for the public.

However, I do agree that there should be concern about this type of exhibit. Though the bodies were provided for educational purposes, the museum community should really examine the aim and outcome of these types of exhibits. Are the viewers really coming to learn something or are they attending the exhibit for sheer shock value. As professionals we all should acknowledge the fact that the many of our guests only visit to our institutions to "look at stuff." In this case, I think interpretation through labels, brochures, etc. is the key to increasing the educational value that the majority of the visitors will receive. Even with interpretation, an examination of the donors' wishes should certainly be taken into consideration. In donating their bodies for study, how could they possibly envision crowds of people filing by their remains in a museum? Though there is educational value if the exhibit is well done, does that value meet the expectations of a donor? Will these types of exhibits have an effect on the publics desire to donate their remains? In any case, I hope the public will leave with a greater understanding of human anatomy and the role of scientific research in disease prevention and medical technology. ________________________________ From: Museum discussion list [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Richard Fields Sent: Tuesday, November 28, 2006 12:05 PM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: [MUSEUM-L] "Our Body: The Universe Within" exhibit article Martin F. Kohn has written an interesting article on the "Our Body: The Universe Within" exhibit to be shown at the New Detroit Science Center. The article ( http://www.freep.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20061128/ENT05/611280305 ) looks at the exhibit, controversy, and thoughts of exhibiting human body parts. The bodies have undergone a process called plastination, and the exhibit is developed by Universe Within Touring Co. They expect 50,000 visitors a month during its run from January 13th to Memorial Day, according to the article. Now my comments. I acknowledge the educational value of bodies used in medical education and research. I acknowledge the educational value of a cursory examination of human remains when accidentally discovered before proper re-internment. I am not opposed to educational study. That said, I am opposed to the display of human remains in museums. I have seen exhibits, such as the Science Museum of Minnesota, which had slices of human bodies between glass (or something smiler), which could make a claim to an educational value, and I remember the mummy's hand on display at the Witte museum in San Antonio, (smell the mummy's hand!) which I found revolting. As a Native American, I am perhaps a bit more sensitive to seeing humans on display. There was a history of disrespect shown toward native remains, and those from other non-European cultures. Fortunately, that has mostly passed. The bodies for the exhibit come from China, and although they gave their bodies to science, I still don't think a museum exhibit is an appropriate use for a dead body. I do not know if they were aware if the scientific use included museum exhibits. I am curious as to how others feel about exhibiting bodies and body parts in museums. Can you separate your professional and personal views on this issue (I cannot)? Is the display of bodies a legitimate item, or is it just another way to keep the turnstiles revolving? Will today's educational exhibit be looked at in the future with disdain as the way we now consider the display of human remains from other cultures (such as Indians, mummies from Egypt, or African Tribes). And a quick note to the Science Museum of Minnesota and The Witte Museum. I think you both have great museums, I just disagree with the exhibits I saw, which were about five and ten years ago respectively. I do not know if they are still there. I just used your institutions since they were the first two I remembered. ________________________________ Access over 1 million songs - Yahoo!

I've recently relocated overseas, and am looking for work in the museum arena in my new home country. I've not found any full-time employment yet, but the freelance opportunities seem to be coming at me from every direction! Trouble is, I've rarely freelanced exhibit development and find it a bit bewildering. I know I can do the work, that is not the concern, but I have no idea how to go about quoting and estimating, nor what an exhibit development contract/quote/tender should look like. Thankfully, most of these are small projects, so they should be fairly easy to get the mind around. My role on most includes exhibit content development, working with staff/curators/specialists in association with the client(s). I also would provide design and project management overseeing the fabrication (which includes selecting and suggesting fabricators, and overseeing their work to completion of the project.) Anyhow, would anyone out there be willing to share some examples with me, just to get me started? Specifically, I am interested in formatting for proposals to provide exhibit development/design services (not fabrication) and methodologies for pricing. I would very much like to provide a proposal that is easy to understand, covers all the bases, and accurately describes the services provided. Also, I would be keen to know of any good reading material on the subject of museum consulting / freelancing in general. Thanks much! -William ========================================================= Important Subscriber Information: The Museum-L FAQ file is located at http://www.finalchapter.com/museum-l-faq/ .

It works very well and you can add pigment to either the B-72 or the B-69 that helps label objects that are dark in color. My concern would be, how hard would it be to later remove that type of B-72/paper label in 5 or 10 ten years. Maybe it won't be difficult, and maybe it will. I've never read anything about that type of labeling in all of my research (our museum is going to have to re-label a significant portion of our collections, some of which are finished and unfinished), but that doesn't mean I've read every source there is.

We found a great method (we think) involving a B72 bottom layer then writing the # on acid-free tissue paper and applying it with another B72 top layer. Is there any reason we should hesitate to implement this method? Any issues we need to consider? The corners seem to be staying down as long as they're soaked through with B72. ________________________________ ========================================================= Important Subscriber Information: The Museum-L FAQ file is located at http://www.finalchapter.com/museum-l-faq/ .
