I love the look of papier-mâché. It is sturdy, classic and timeless, but sometimes it is just too much trouble — the layers, dripping and drying time, and then the painting. If I had an art/craft-dedicated studio and time to spare, I would be all over it. But for now, paper clay is my new papier-mâché. It is the same idea — paper infused with some sort of stiffener — but paper clay looks as if it is ceramic, with the strength of papier-mâché. The best part is its beautiful white color once it is dry — great for so many summer-inspired projects.
I used paper clay to make these organic barnacles. These lovely little objects would make stunning tabletop centerpieces, small storage vessels, wall decor, votives . . . the options are endless! I've included a few variation samples at the end, including painting the barnacles, but I love the simple, raw look, too, so I chose to leave the barnacles au naturel for my own home. I can smell the salty sea air now. Happy crafting! — Brenna
Read the full how-to after the jump . . .
- toilet paper (about 1 roll)
- 1 cup joint compound (in the paint aisle)
- 6 ounces white glue
- 3/4 cup flour
- small balloons (I used water balloons filled with air)
- plastic wrap
- hot glue gun
1. To make the paper clay, soak the toilet paper in a bowl of water. I unrolled it so that the sheets were separate. Squeeze as much water as you can from the toilet paper.
2. Tear the toilet paper into bits until you have two cups. Put it in a large bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer.
3. Add 1 cup of joint compound and the glue, which is equal to 3/4 cup, but it's easier to just pour it in if you have a bottle that is say 3 ounces. Keep in mind that it doesn't have to be accurate; this is not a soufflé. Add the flour.
4. Mix well until you get a smooth consistency. I used my stand mixer. I believe that with a little soap, pretty much anything (that is water soluble) washes off. But if you aren't as eager to use a container that also mixes up your favorite cookies (my husband would die if he knew I put joint compound in the mixing bowl), then by all means use a disposable container or even a plastic bag and your hands!
5. Blow the water balloons up with air. They should be about 3–4 inches or bigger, depending how large you would like your barnacles to be.
6. Make some pancake shapes with the clay. Pat the clay and use your fingers to shape it into round disks about half the thickness of a real pancake, or 1/4 inch.
7. Put the paper clay pancake on the round end of the balloon. Use the palm of your hand to make it stick until it is a little more than halfway up the balloon.
8. Take a square of plastic wrap and place the paper clay-covered balloon in the center of the square. The clay should be against the plastic wrap, the tied end of the balloon pointing straight up.
9. Gather the plastic wrap around the balloon as neatly as you can, bringing the excess up around the tied end of the balloon.
10. Twist the plastic wrap. Twist it more. The balloon will take on a round shape rather than a teardrop.
11. Give it a little squeeze to smooth things out and carefully unwrap it.
12. Place the paper clay-covered balloon on a tray or cookie sheet lined with plastic wrap or parchment paper. Place it in a warm, sunny, breezy place. Once they are completely dry (be patient!), pop the balloon.
13. You can leave the barnacles single or you can group them as I did. Use a small drop of hot glue to stick the barnacles together. I created groupings of three, which gave me some play to arrange them how I liked.
You're done! You can customize these a million ways: Add paint or metallic leafing to the insides, spray paint the whole set, hang or glue them to vessels or walls. I've included some variation images below to inspire you. Enjoy!
A coat of metallic spray paint makes the barnacles look like cast silver sculptures.
Adding a thin wash of paint in a trio of oceany blues to the inside of these barnacles really makes the shapes pop! You can customize them with any color combination you choose.
Oh my goodness this is such an awesome project. My first glimpse at the post before i read it I was thinking, this is so awesome, where can I buy these for my house, even better an easy way to make them myself! Thanks for sharing!
– Briana
Best DIY I've seen in a long time. Thank you for sharing!
I've seen this type of paper-ceramic stuff before but never knew what it was–thank you so much this is something I"ve been wondering about for a long time!
This is SO cool and totally unexpected! I cannot wait to try this one out!
Can you put water in these? Thanks.
Ohmygod ohmygod ohmygod. This is absolutely fantastic. Would recycled printer paper/ kraft paper work? I know it wouldn't end up pure white, but I wonder if soaking longer would help compensate for the lack of tissue-softness.
I am SO going to try this.
Came here from Pinterest. U are a genius. Adding to my To do list. Thank U!
PJ – That's a good question! I would think if you coat them with several layers of a matte sealant (or gloss, depending on what look you want), then they would be waterproof. But let me experiment with it and get back to you!
These are fun! Very beach like. :)
Love this! Beautiful.
Seeeeriously in love with these….. must.make.stat.
there is a product called PaperClay that one could use instead of making it. I use it to make dollhouse miniatures and it can be rolled out quite thin. you can also mix paint into it before molding around the balloons. this project makes me want to hunt down my Paperclay when I get home!
This is so much fun! The things you can do with balloons are serious limitless! We did a project with balloons as well but we turned it into a lantern as decor. Great post :)
This may be a really stupid question, but I wonder if you could use these for votives? I imagine not, since paper and fire don't tend to mix well… but I wonder if there's a way to prevent them from being flammable. I think they would make really lovely votive holders.
How creative! Love the coloured centres.
Lovely! I think I'm going to play around with leaving a hole in the bottom, sealing the inside, and using these as little flower/herb planters!
This, too, has been on my mind but very thin papier mache 2/3 of the way around a big oval watermelon to make a pendant light. gold leaf the inside. I think the light would have to be a cool fluorescent to prevent a fire
@Amy, I was wondering if you could use oven baked clay. I think there was a tutorial on here for small bowls using it or something like it? It would be a whole different feel from the paper version but be safe for votives!
These are beautiful, Kate! Thanks for sharing!
Wow this is so awesome! can't wait to try it!
How would you suggest hanging it? I'd really like to hang it using a string, maybe fishing twine? so that it looks like it's dangling freely.
Or: how would you hang it against a wall?
those look super cute and fun thanks for sharing I will be making them this weekend looks fun!
That is fantastic! Such a great tutorial. You've totally inspired me to get my hands dirty!
I just got back from a beach holiday. I am so in love with these. The painted insides are the best!
Love these they are so pretty
These are so clever! They would be perfect for salt and pepper vessels! I know what I'm doing this Friday!!
I see peonies!!!! Great project, thanks :-)
Could you spray them with fabric flame retardant? so you could us them as votives. Love the idea of large ones used as light pendants!
Yes! Weekend crafty project sorted! Thank you!
love them, ring holders, with little tea lights in them, paperclips and and and
These are beautiful.
I know there are other products available BUT this is just such an affordable way to make paper clay.
I will be hunting down an old mixer at the thrift store asap.
Love this-one of my favorite DIY projects posted here.
What an awesome technique! A must try. Thanks Brenna! Thanks also to Heather for the tip on PaperClay — I'm going to look for it :)
awesome idea, thanks
This is amazing. I am going to experiment with this and use it for my wedding. Awesome post!
So supercool, I can't wait to try it! I can see painting the inside with a subtle pearlescent paint so it looks like an oyster shell……
What a fantastic project – this has my mind racing with the possibilities! Thanks, it was also a very clear and easy tutorial. Cheers ~ Heidi
These are SO cool! I can't wait to try them, I can imagine doing a large cluster for a wall. So neat!
Please google 'Ultimate Paper Mache'. The woman who runs that site is AMAZING. Her art is seriously great. She's been using the toilet paper/joint compound medium for a long time. You can find great recipes there and tons of inspiration. Thanks for this post!
RE: water proofing,
Coating these with some gel medium would work well. Golden (brand) makes gel medium in different finishes (matte, gloss, in between) that are basically clear acrylic paints. You could even tint the gel with a bit of paint; I put a bit of silver in some once and it does a pearlescent effect. They also make "interference" paints that appear to be different colors depending on the angle light bounces off of them!
wow.. these are amazing.. I can;t wait to try these in the future.
For those of us not in the USA (but in the original Jersey ! (Channel Islands)) what is joint compound? I am guessing that white glue is what I would call PVA. OnceI get the answer,I'll be making these – they are lovely and I am so up for papier mache – one of my favourite things.
Joint compound is similar to spackle if you have that. It is used to fill in drywall seams and holes. Look in the drywall/sheetrock section of your home improvement store.
I wonder if there is a way to do this with some sort of cement mixture, paint the outsides with a water-based non-flammable spray paint and put votives in them. I agree…. AWESOME centerpiece idea for a beach wedding if you can put candles in them.
Sooo pretty! Thanks for the DIY!
That is gorgeous and so much fun!
Lovely shape and texture…the idea of painting them in pale hues or pearly shades is calling me! Some way to fireproof them has real possibilities for a candle. What about making the bottom slightly flat, then lining the container with a clear votive holder and a candle? Some careful experimenting will find a solution.
So beautiful! I can't wait to play with this, all of the parts seem easy to procure and the making is simple = I can do it!
Can you use a tealight candle in them, or is the joint compound flammable? I assume the barnacle in general is flammable, what with it being PAPER clay, but I hoped the glue would make it a little protected…?
This would be a beautiful hanging chandelier too!
Absolutely a great project. I have been looking for a new catch-all for my desk and this is just perfect. I'll be adding this to my wedding inspiration board too.
Think I'm going try to make a larger one and see what it looks like.
I do paper mache too and have been using a similar recipe for my projects. I love this one. The way you got the texture for the barnacles is ingenious! So creative! I'm very impressed. Thanks for sharing your project. Yeah, I too love that making this paper clay paper mache is so much simpler, less messy and takes less time to dry than the dipping and strips!
BEAUTIFUL!!!! thanks so much for sharing it!
Did you use powdered joint compound or pre mixed?
Gorgeous! Thanks so much for this post! I have a question about Step #12. Is there a good way you'd recommend to pop the balloon and release the water without getting the paper mache wet? I know it's supposed to be completely dry before you pop the balloon but not sure if popping balloon can make mache soggy? Can't wait to try this!!!
I was wondering: Which type of white glue did you use to make these beauties?
Thank you!
I was just wondering what type of joint-compound you used? I found there are "setting" and "light" options, as well as different grades of the compound… what do you best recommend? (i'm basing this off of homedepot.com, by the way haha)
DD, the balloons contained air, not water. They are called water balloons as they can hold water. Hope this helps.
Is this just white "school" glue? All-purpose glue that you have used?
I tried your cool DIY.
I used the same quantities like you said, but my clay is too drie.
Can I put more glue or water?
This is an amazing idea! I think I'm going to make a bunch and arrange them on a (DIY!) tiered tray to use as a jewelry organizer!
What if, to make votive holders, you used small round dollar store glass ones and just shaped the paper clay around them? If you like the colour on the inside, you could paint the outside of the glass before applying the clay to minimize the risk of catching fire… though you'd have to use one that wouldn't budge when you slap the wet clay on there.
I love this idea, but I wonder what a "joint compound" means? What it could be in other words?
I am not that familiar with English language and the "technical" terms
Thanks, Vesna
hi all! thank you for all of your thoughtful comments! to answer a few of your questions…
i used "dap" brand pre mixed joint compound. they also call this drywall mud. it is similar to spackle, but not the lightweight kind. it comes in tubs in the paint aisle of the home improvement store. (i went to home depot)
the balloons are filled with air, not water. let them pop or deflate on their own. make sure the papier mache is completely dry before you pop them or the barnacle will collapse. patience!! (i know its hard)
i used white glue from target. you could use elmers, or whatever you can find. the brand shouldnt make much of a difference. if the mixture is too dry absolutely add some more glue, or just a tiny bit of water. but i would add more glue before i added more water. if it is too wet, add some more flour.
thanks and have fun!
thanks a lot, this will help…
This idea is simply amazing! So smart and cool!
Thank you for sharing!
Regards from Italy
My Son and I made paper clay over the weekend and had a ball.
So easy to make and fun to work with, and endless possibilities.
Thanks for another great idea.
Wow! This is amazing! I can't wait to spend a day making these!
This is so cool!
About how long does it take to dry?
I am SO making these when I have a day off! I can't believe I'm JUST seeing this post now!! awesome project!!
Hi, I am trying to make a hanging light fixture and though this idea would be neat to convert into that by making one but keeping a hole in the top to connect a hanging light fixture with cord and bulb (what you would buy to rewire a lamp) I think this would be so cute and easy to make but do you think it would be flammable?
LOVELY!!! Can't wait to get stuck into making these, I can think of a hundred and one uses for them. Just need to find the time to make them, now. Anyone want to look after a lively whirlwind 16 month old?
Helpful hints on making the barnacles. I just finished my first batch and they are out in the hot garage drying. First of all they are breeze to mix up in the stand mixer. However, remove the paper mache to a big plastic bowl as you form the clay rather than use it out of the stainless mixing bowl. I put the formed disk in between two sheets of plastic wrap and rolled it to the 1/4″ thickness. No sticking and no mess. Plan on using lots of plastic wrap. I had to to use two sheets of wrap to gather all corners to twist and form the shape. Next time I'm going to cut dry cleaner bag squares to form the larger barnacles. I do have questions I hope someone will answer if they have made the barnacles. I tied the balloons as tight as I could but noticed the balloons are deflating slightly which is reshaping them a little. Also the size of the balloon was not in the material list and I could only find 9″ balloons which I think were too big. If you blew them up to the recommended 3-4″ it left the balloon softer due to the fact it was a 9″ size. I made larger 6″ size barnacles to experiment and they seem to be holding their shape better. Another question I have is should they be dried in air conditioning or out where it is hot but extremely humid. I wish the instructions would have stated an approx. time it takes to dry. I will post this once I make several batches. If the barnacles are a success I plan to make a grouping on my wall as an art arrangement.
Just so clever! This is why I love coming here . What a delight.
These are FANTASTIC!! I love them sprayed inside! A fabulous way to incorporate color!! Thanks so much for sharing! You ROCK!!!!
Ours are drying now – we followed the directions to a T but unfortunately the paper clay came out extremely sticky. This made it difficult to shape it around the balloons. Does anyone have any suggestions as to make it thicker/less sticky so that we can get the pancakes to form? Thanks very much!
would love to make some ornaments for coming Christmas using paper clay!
I made 33 barnacles and want to add a couple of cautions and hints. First and foremost don't use colored balloons unless you are going to paint the inside because the color transfers to the inside of the paper clay once it dries. I used Charmin Ultra Soft toilet paper and recommend mixing it in a small bucket half full of water and then draining it through a fine sieve. It is easy to do and makes a finer finished product. Put the clay between two pieces of plastic wrap and use a rolling pin to roll it out flat. It keeps things neat and clean and it rolls out so easily this way. I found rolling it thin made a lovely barnacle rather than pancake thickness as recommended in the recipe. Also use 4″ party balloons if you want smaller balloons. I made 6″ barnacles but had to use two big squares of dry cleaning bags because the plastic wrap is not wide enough when you go to twist the top. I tried one dry cleaning bag but it did not have the strength the plastic wrap has. I found you could roll it out in an oval shape and it created a different look. After making so many I began to find you could manipulate the clay somewhat when twisting the barnacle. The barnacle takes flat paint beautifully and joins together well with the hot glue. The recipe makes 10 small barnacles and 6 large ones. I have a 16 ft. wall and I made a grouping and used a couple of nails to hang them on the wall.
I was wondering if pollyfilla would do the same job as joint compound? I'm hoping it's the "UK equivalent" lol!
Sorry what is paint aisle?
I do this with proper paper clay which is made out of porcelain and paper pulp. Then fired to 1260c. I like the idea of creating multiples of small bowls though.
also ' paper clay is actually real clay so it needs to be fired .. just info for those asking about buying paper clay.
Just getting started (re-started to be more precise since I haven't done this since being a kid and I'm a gray hair now) in getting my hands wet in papier mache. I was browsing the net looking for ideas and a possible first project and voila, there was your site. To be quite frank, I almost by-passes it but something about paper clay barnacles stood out – and I'm glad it did. I'll be heading out in the next couple of days to gather supplies and try my hand in making my own. One question – do you finish them with a white matte coat of paint or leave them natural? I believe you said that painting (in color) was an option but I wondered if left natural are they subject to any atmospheric conditions.
I just tried my first batch and they are drying. I thought everything went well. The clay is sticky, yes, but instead of forming it with my fingers, I placed a round disk in the middle of a piece of plastic wrap and worked from there. I placed the balloon in the middle, pulled the plastic wrap up and gathered it and stared at the beautiful fall leaves while I "worked" the clay upward through the plastic wrap. @Mary, it sounds like you are using regular sized balloons and this works much better with water balloons. Also, water balloons seem nearly IMPOSSIBLE to blow up with your mouth so I grabbed the ole bike pump from the garage and held the balloon close to the tip. I did not need to wrap the top of the balloon on the bike pump to get it to work. The directions on the joint compound recommend drying at least 24 hours. I would go adhere to at least this much drying time. I plan on using these for my wedding! Can't wait to see how they dry. Thanks for the tutorial!!
A little late. I just found your wonderful tutorial via pinterest. Thanks so much for sharing these beautiful images with us. Duch an inspiration! Greets, Manu
What about mold and mildew at some point if exposed to humid sea air? I do think the Golden gel would eliminate any problem.
I love these! Will be making them as soon as I have all the materials!
My brother and his love live in Tampa. Guess what is going in next Christmas' package. So very many ways to use them. I love awnateral. I see them also as having little holes in base to insert rice lights around his lanai. Although he had to have his boat bottom scraped and repainted ($$$) a few years back…I'm sending them anyway! thank you for sharing. LOVE
I thought this was a great idea, and I can't wait to try it but, where I live during this time of year there is frost on everything all day long. Although during late spring and summer it is hot, dry, and breezy so I will definitely try it then. and i love the ocean so it will fit my personality too
oh yes and does it matter what type of joint compound????
Just found this and am so imspired. Interestingly enough I was at a local artists studio for a tour (in Sydney) and she made these out of clay. She enameled the inside in sea colors using blue and green glass chips that melted in the kiln and sometimes she gilded the edges otherwise they were exactly the same. They were so beautiful. She charged hundreds of dollars for them so I am thrilled to make my own.
Extraordinary. Thank you so much for teaching us how to do. You opened new windows in my inspiration world.
Greetings from Istanbul.
hi there i tried there and the are curently drying out I did run into one issue so I am wondering if you can help…
– very sticky clay – are you using a powdered version of joint compound or the already mixed version?
Jonni from ultimate paper mache would be proud, these are great. And I'm not complaining about your work, but giving someone the credit for the recipe should be done, only because these are wonderful and very beautiful and the design is amazing. http://ultimatepapermache.com/
For the mold question: add a little bleach to the water before you tear the toilet paper up and let it set for a little bit. Salt works as well. But I've used the bleach and it works better in my opinion.
For the holding water question: these won't be able to hold water because they are made out of paper, but you could add a small jar or something that holds water inside and it should work, but be careful due to them being paper and any water will soften them. Some people seal them with boat varnish, or a polyurethane that you can get from Walmart. But I wouldn't use them for food.
Karin, it's regular joint compound from Walmart, not the DAP brand, if it's too sticky add more flour a little at a time until it starts to form, but its still spreadable. Jonni even suggested using a bit of corn starch.
for the joint compound question these are what I found at Jonni's site:
"Drywall joint compound" in the United States (guys in the construction industry call it "mud")
"Drywall filler" in Canada
"Joint filler" in the UK
"Fugenmasse" in Germany
"Joint finish" in Australia
"Voegenmiddel" in Dutch
In India it's called "wall putty"
In Guatemala joint compound is known as "Pasta de Tablayesero"
check out her site for more info: http://ultimatepapermache.com/
again these are fabulous, very pretty and you have awesome talent when it comes to the design. so don't take me wrong when I say what I do. I love your site and enjoy being here.
Just found this on Pinterest. So cool – Thanks for sharing.
Just wanted to know as to how can I attach it to the wall directly as a wall art
Think about using the little battery operated LED tea light inside. No flame-no fire
Joint compound is Cornice cement powder in Australia
I love this idea! Thanks for posting the awesome how-to!
This a wonderful idea I love it! I was just wondering how many rolls of toilet paper you need to use and how many barnacles one roll will make? I would love to try this for a craft in my program.
Thank you for sharing such a great idea!
I love this… exactly what I was searching for. Thank you thank you thank you. While one of your previous viewers, Taria heavily pointed out on Jonni's specific paper mache website, I'd like to add that this particular paper mache barnacle design credit goes entirely to you, especially since the art of paper mache has been around for AGES (pre-Jonni), credit towards Jonni's site for this DIY project would be an incorrect move; though she is INCREDIBLY talented. Thank you for sharing this unique DIY design that I have yet to find anywhere else.
On another note, I'm thinking about these as a planter. Any thoughts on how to make the inside withhold a limited amount of moister (shade loving plant in dry environment). I read the advice of an earlier commenter to Golden's gel compound… hmmmm. Thanks!!
I see a pumpkin 'bowl' to arrange silk flowers in – real flowers if a waterproof container is put inside. I know you have all seen arrangements for fall using the real pumpkins – this would be so beautiful!
Has anyone found an effective way to make these waterproof? I'd like to use them as planters.
For waterproof, what about forming the barnacle around a "rose bowl"? http://www.wholesalefloral.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=GLSS967&gdftrk=gdfV2821_a_7c948_a_7c7994_a_7cGLSS967&gclid=CjwKEAiA5emkBRCT_JL9p77IyF8SJADpztPylbsChe8kguSB9wjFelTAYzGZRLRAgb8NqrcNVTFikxoCU8bw_wcB

'Whale Spotting' app seeks to reduce ship strikes - 0 Comments
SAN FRANCISCO — Marine scientists looking for new ways to reduce the number of whales struck and killed off California's coast by massive commercial ships have turned to a familiar tool: mobile devices.
An app called "Whale Spotter" uses crowd-sourcing to gather data, allowing sailors, fishermen and marine scientists who spot whales to plot their location on an interactive map. The maps created could then be used by National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and U.S. Coast Guard officials to recommend different vessel routes.

The Mountain Winery concert grounds are beautiful! The dinner was a three course,quality and quantity of a 5 star restaurant, along with great service. The concert venue is a beautiful setting, back drop of the Winery building,Roman Castle Architectural with endless view of Saratoga and beyond, like sitting up among the stars almost reachable in the sky. And Michael Bolton and Kenny G were fantastic with their performance, the music fit the stage. Perfect!

Consuptuption is irrelevant, since the Dual cannons can't fire while I'm broadsiding and my beams will have all the power they need. The rear has no real threat with all beams. Once an escort gets in close to your rear, point blank range, you are not going to shake him. You can turn left or right it would not stop him from being on your rear. If beams had a little more umf in them then players would not just sit in one spot take all 4 beams firing on him.
WHat makes you think you are supposseed to be able to juke and weave to shake an escort?
Thats likes saying an F22 is being unfair to a 787 airliner in a dog fight and the 787 deserves a buff becuase of its just incapable of competing.
As to being toast if an escort gets on your six, then since you know this come up with a way to compensate for it like many other Crusier players have done.
Use EWP, TB, a Tric Mine, Jam sensors, Scramble Senosrs, AMS, etc etc.
BtW, I have out manuevered Escorts in a BortasQu before when they where on my six, just saying a full reverse is sometimes all you need to catch them offguard.
That Pivot in place Escort has at most a -5% Bonus Defense sitting still, at worst a -15% bonus defense and Beams already do more damage than all cannons except the DHCs and they only exceed by 97 points.
Beams only truelly differ in that they are not a Burst damage weapon unless used with Beam Overload OR A REALLY INVENTIVE USE OF dem AND A WEAPON BATT.
If that Escort is sitting still and you can't kill him or gaurd against the burst attack you know is incomming, you are doing something wrong.

Search Engine Watch | August 6, 2012 | Comments
Google has over $756 million in brand value, surpassing Apple and Microsoft as the Top Global Brand, judging by online news and social media mentions.
Buzz over new and improved products has helped Google surpass Apple in Impact Media Value, making it the Top Global Brand according to General Sentiment's Global Brands Report for Q2 2012.
Impact Media Value attempts to assign a dollar value to the amount of buzz over a company in online news and social media, regardless of sentiment. Google scored $756.6 million in brand value, compared to former leader Apple's $594.3 million. Microsoft took the bronze with $356.4 million in brand value.
Other companies in the top 10 were Amazon.com, Hewlett-Packard, Samsung, Sony, Disney, FedEx, and Yahoo.
Global Sentiment explains Google's success in Q2 2012:
At the end of June, Google I/O 2012prompted a ton of media coverage. During I/O's three days, the company unveiled Android 4.1 Jelly Bean, the Nexus 7 tablet and the Nexus Q (an orb-shaped media streaming device) and introduced improvements to existing products. Google also used skydivers to introduce the $1,500 Google Glass prototype.
Bad news for Apple in Q2 contributed to their slip from the leading position, including their implication in a lawsuit alleging e-book price fixing and investment bank Piper Jaffray's lackluster grade for Siri.
A second competition based on Perception Media Value isolates the effects of sentiment on brand value by disregarding neutral mentions, assigning positive value to positive mentions, and taking away value for negative mentions. In that category, AXA, Ball Corporation, and FedEx took the top three spots, respectively; Google, Amazon and Microsoft didn't make the top 10.
As to methodology, the report notes, "Global Sentiment used the top 100 global brands from the 2011 Interbrand report and selected brands from the S&P 500 as a prescreening step in its Media Value computation." That Interbrand report (in November 2011) found Google the Most Attractive Employer and saw the search giant in the Best Global Brands Top 5 for the second year in a row.
Download the full report for further insights and the full lists for brand impact, biggest winners, and biggest losers.

Certainty for portability in Australia
Portability is fundamental in the new FMI (financial market infrastructure) world of global derivatives. It is the ability to move transactions and collateral away from a defaulting participant in a clearing system in order to preserve the system and the market. In many countries, legal certainty is still an issue for this process. However, in Australia, legislative certainty is now on its way.
The Corporations and Financial Sector Legislation Amendment Bill 2013 (Cth) (a link is here) was introduced into the House of Representatives today. Amongst other things, the Bill proposes to amend the Payment Systems and Netting Act (PSN Act) to protect portability and security in clearing systems under Australian law. It is an important improvement in robustness of the legal framework supporting the operations and stability of financial markets clearing in Australia…

Bruce Sinclair Swasey 1928-2015
Bruce died almost a month ago. Peacefully, at age 86, surrounded by his children, as one would want.
Much like my dad, he died with no trouble or fuss to anyone. He decided it was time, quit eating, and called his children to come. Hospice came in two days before he passed. The night before he died, he awoke at 3 am and chatted through the night with his son, Chad, even going through some math problems. Bruce was a technical guy, and loved math problems.
It's hard to overestimate how important he was to us. Not just to me, to us, our community of Toastmasters. He belonged to so many clubs – it was impossible to determine how many. Toastmasters was his social life, his true calling. He welcomed and drew people in and helped them take their first shaky steps into public speaking. He encouraged and called, or more often wrote. He wrote notes and letters and cards. I have a whole file folder full, and I only kept maybe a third of them.
You know that phrase "covered in glory"? That's what it felt like to be loved by Bruce. He covered me in glory. He praised me endlessly and acted like I was a goddess sprung from a clamshell. He was effusive, concerned, honest. He took my petty offerings with such open-hearted enthusiasm, like the time I gave him a book of poetry the girls in a writing mentorship program had written, and he stayed awake all night reading it. He reported back that it had given him new courage and enthusiasm to write poetry himself. This was a man in his 80s, unabashedly diving into writing poetry, cheered by the bravery of teenaged girls to put pen to paper.
About six months before he died, he began telling us all, his friends, that he loved us. He said he had decided that he didn't want to leave this world without us knowing that. So at every parting, we said "I love you." We said it often.
God, I miss him so much. At his memorial the other day, we sang "What a Wonderful World," together. I think it was a perfect tribute, because if everyone behaved like Bruce, what a wonderful world it would be.
Bruce, on the right, doing what he loved most – goofing around at a Toastmasters meeting.

Updated: haha I posted a month early! I guess I'll be back doing this again on Feb. 20, the real date. I don't mind. More kindness and compassion is better than less.
Today I'm joining with 999 other bloggers to fill the internet with posts about compassion and kindness, so now I guess I have to say something profound.
Compassion comes from a the root words meaning "to suffer with." Suffering. The last thing we ever want to do. The thing we try to avoid at all costs. If we want to be compassionate, though, we suffer with.
Suffer with. Be with. Sit with. Share in the moments where certainty is not given. Breathe. Pray. Hold. Hold on.
Everything in modern America tells us not to do this. Run away! Take a drink. A pill. A vacation. Get away. Make an inspirational quote photo. Do anything to get the hell away from that pain.
I dated a guy who had a stroke when he was about the age I am now. Not a devastating one, but serious enough to require a cardiac pacemaker due to heart damage brought on by years of untreated high blood pressure. He had no health insurance, so he had to go to our county hospital, a creaky old place with no air conditioning.
There was a more modern hospital across the road, but there was no way he could afford it. I was afraid the care he got at County would be sub-par, but what was there to do? To top it off, he was terrified. He had never suspected, until he had the stroke, that he was in any way unwell. He was in shock.
A nurse who looked to be about 45 came in to the hospital on her day off. She had heard about his situation. She told him that she, too, had a cardiac pacemaker. She told him she had felt scared and devastated by her heart problems, certain she would never be the same. She pulled back her shirt collar and let him run his fingers over her pacemaker, right there under her skin. She explained that the pacemaker allowed her to continue her life much as it had been before.
The nurse gave him exactly the care he needed at that moment – the experience only someone else with a pacemaker could share. She had the compassion to come in when she didn't have to because she knew there was a human in need. He was instantly better, calmer, ready. She had given him something the most modern hospital couldn't offer – a light on the path, shone by a human soul.
All the Meals that Have Loved Me
One of my cookbooks said that part of classical Indian cuisine is to enter the kitchen with a loving heart – that part of creating a nourishing meal is the mood with which the chef cooks.
The best meals are created with the eater in mind – part of the pleasure of the cook is the cook imagining the pleasure of the eater. Each ingredient is chosen and prepared as a gift.
The worst meals can feel like an assault. When the food is before you, you think "No one cares about me," or worse, "The person who made this hates me."
I remember a salad with green apples I ordered at a Marie Callender's that was prepared so carelessly that it made my heart hurt for the world. I know that sounds melodramatic, but the sight of that limp, browning lettuce and hacked-up apples made me feel like a trust had been broken. The message from the person on the other end of that salad was "This will probably make you unhappy. I do not care."
Then there are the other meals, meals that feel like a blessing. I remember a meal from more than 10 years ago that a friend made and served on his Santa Monica patio – a pasta alla checca that was simple and fresh and so perfect for the evening. It was, in a word, beautiful. He took a great deal of pride in his cooking, and the friends that gathered that night were fed by his love of food and his care for us.
I made a berry cobbler for a church potluck last year that prompted a man to grab my hands and declare "Marry me!" We both laughed – he's already married – but I'm happy he could feel my care in that food.
I was meditating this morning on things I love to do (I'm going through Mark Nepo's 'The Book of Awakening') and cooking came up. This year, I want to cook for more people. I want to let them know they're important and cared for. It's a small thing, a passing thing, but in the end, even the Parthenon falls. Most of us will build no great buildings, but we can build small moments of great care. That's what I want to do.
The other side of the Gilmore Girls coin
Now we flip the coin over to come to the important question of the ages: Which Gilmore Girls character is most awesome? There is so much awesome to go around!
Candidate 1: Lorelai
Evidence: She's a strong independent woman. Expert at witty repartee. Looks good in clothes. Seems to get a lot of work done without putting forth any visible effort. Apparently a smart businesswoman because she can afford a staff of 20 at the inn, with only 10 rooms.
Candidate 2: Rory (she doesn't get a bolded name because everything about her is so not bold. She'll be lucky to make italics).
Evidence: Smarty pants. Hard worker. Not an ounce of trouble to anyone. Rules follower. Trustworthy. Eventually a cute dresser.
Candidate 3: Emily
Evidence: Nobody's fool. Will of iron. Snappy dresser. Doesn't miss much. Makes gorgeous floral arrangements.
Candidate 4: Richard
Evidence: Gentleman. Good head for business. Sharp dresser, articulate, kind to everyone but the business partner he knifed in the back.
Candidate 5: Dean
Evidence: Hard worker. Humble. Athletic. Nice to everyone he meets. He built his girlfriend a car. Dated for 2 teenage years apparently without pressuring his girlfriend for sex.
Candidate 6: Jess
Evidence: Kinda cute. Employee of the month. Knows how to drive a forklift. Um…reaching here.
Candidate 7: Taylor
Evidence: Strong sense of civic duty. Good businessman. Um….
Candidate 8: Kirk
Evidence: He has all the jobs. Speaks forthrightly. And…what else?
Candidate 9: Sookie
Evidence: Cutie pie. Awesome chef. Good friend. Good wife and mom. Sweet as a meringue cookie.
Candidate 10: Luke
Evidence: Manly. Hard-working. Looks good in jeans (though a little too much like my brother for my perving purposes). Honest. Loves his dad. Super dependable. Handy.
Candidate 11: Michel
Evidence: Kind to his dogs. Looks good in suits. And…I'm out.
Ok, there's 11 good solid candidates. I could reach into the second-string, slightly less awesome ranks of Miss Patty, Babette and Rory's vaguely-drawn roommates. And I'm leaving out Paris because I couldn't think of any good attributes.
It just goes to show you, we're all lovely if you think about it hard enough. Or at least the characters in Stars Hollow are. Take your pick.
Ok, step up and vote. Who will take the Crown of Awesomeness?
Which Gilmore Girls character is most odious? An exploration.
Now we come to the important question of the ages: Which Gilmore Girls character is most odious? There is so much odious to go around!
Candidate 1: Lorelai
Evidence: She's an adult who acts as entitled as a Disney stepsister. She lies a lot, but gets furious when people don't tell her the truth. She left her fiancee at the altar for no discernable reason and then didn't bother to leave a post-it note. She sleeps with her ex-husband on the reg, even when he's involved with someone else. She talks ALL THE DAMN TIME. She drank up ALL THE COFFEE.
Candidate 2: Rory (she doesn't get a bolded name because everything about her is so not bold. She'll be lucky to make italics).
Evidence: Everyone thinks she's so great, but I can't figure out why. Has she ever done anything for anyone else? She moons around with her doe-eyes and tiny voice all through her freshman college year, never making friends beyond the electric-sander-voiced Paris. People do amazing things for her all the time – like pay her way through a fancy-pants private high school and YALE fergodssake and she barely seems to acknowledge it. She dumps a great guy for a loser, then puts up with a lot of boring crap from him without ever yelling "WTF??" at him for being such a noodge. She's supposed to be BFFs with Lane, but she never invites Lane to anything. When she finally loses her virginity, it's to a married guy. She's inexplicably popular with guys, which is annoying as hell.
Candidate 3: Emily
Evidence: She's the world's biggest snob, and that is in a world with 7 billion people. She bumps Baptists off airplanes so she can take her grandaughter on a spur-of-the-moment European tour. She bosses people around in a way that would make Sheryl Sandberg ok with calling her bossy. Can't keep a maid. She serves escargot to people she knows hate escargot.
Candidate 4: Richard
Evidence: Convinced that insurance is a dynamic and interesting field. Wears bow ties. Destroy's his partner's career, just to save his own bacon, even though his daughter is dating the partner. Forces a guy who runs a diner to buy golf clubs he can't afford. Complicit with his wife in scaring his granddaughter's boyfriend away. Sings the Yale bulldog song proudly and in public. Doesn't know he's a cliche.
Candidate 5: Dean
Evidence: Floppy hair. Has never said an interesting sentence in his life. Deploys wounded puppy dog eyes as a weapon. Is apparently a sexless eunuch in 2 years of teen dating, until he suddenly cheats on his cute wife, who just finally learned to cook a roast for him, dammit.
Candidate 6: Jess
Evidence: Emo-ier than anyone has ever emoed before. Tries for darkly brooding, but the effect is ruined by his poofy chicken hair. Causes trouble and havoc wherever he goes. Is rude to customers. Horrible to anyone who comes near him. Reads Kerouac and Bukowski. Also doesn't know he's a cliche.
Candidate 7: Taylor
Evidence: Petty bureaucrat with complicated facial hair. Know-it-all. Dresses in old-timey outfits whenever he gets the chance.
Candidate 8: Kirk
Evidence: More anxious than Woody Allen. Lives with his mom. Takes all the jobs from everyone who needs them. Runs amok naked.
Candidate 9: Sookie
Evidence: She claims to be a chef, yet is clumsy and thinks small peaches are watery. Needs a kitchen brigade of 5 in an inn with 20 guests max. She uses a whisk to make meringue and whipped cream and this is AFTER the invention of electricity. Often speaks in a high-pitched baby voice. Wears kerchiefs.
Candidate 10: Luke
Evidence: Cranky to everyone. Lets his no-good nephew sponge off him. Has some weird kind of razor that leaves him with 3-day stubble every single day. Dresses like a serial killer, the kind that disappears into the woods afterwards. Yelly. Gets married on a whim. Takes Monte Cristo sandwiches off the menu.
Candidate 11: Michel
Evidence: Almost forgot him, but he is the person I'd be most likely to throttle if I met in real life. Complete customer service jackass, yet works in customer service. Works the desk at an inn, but acts like he's running the Ritz EXCEPT THE RITZ WOULD NEVER HIRE THIS GUY. Gives the French a bad name. Likes Chow dogs.
Ok, there's 11 good solid candidates. I could reach into the second-string, slightly less annoying ranks of Miss Patty, Babette and Rory's dopey roommates. And I'm leaving out Paris because: too obvious.
It just goes to show you, we're all annoying if you think about it hard enough. Or at least the characters in Stars Hollow are. Take your pick.
Ok, step up and vote. Who will take the Crown of Annoyingness?
Lorelai and Me in sweat pants
So here it is winter. Least surprising lead sentence of any blog post ever. You're welcome. You get what you pay for.
I'm mostly sitting around in my Sport Knit Pants from Land's End (the motto of these pants is "We don't make you feel quite as self-loathing as baggy sweats") and watching Gilmore Girls.
I have never watched Gilmore Girls before and am not quite sure why I'm watching it now, except that I want to see how Lorelai, Sookie and Michel can support three grown adult people on a 10-room inn that required a major remodel. I'm not economist, but I can do some math, and their occupancy rate is going to have to be about 335% for them to survive. Just saying.
But still, since it is the dark of winter, that show is occupying most of my brain space. I don't want to go out. I don't want to socialize. I don't want a lot for Christmas, just a comfy chair and something warm to drink and to watch the damn Gilmore Girls until I am done. The funny part is that about half of Twitter and Facebook are doing the same thing, because I see people tweeting thing like "How does Lorelai not weigh 450 pounds?" (Oh, wait, that was me. Nevermind).
For the uninitiated, the reason every woman with a computer seems to be watching Gilmore Girls all at once is that Netflix just released all 7 seasons for streaming. The show ended in 2007, so we get to see quaint olden customs, like the use of flip phones and people having meals while talking to each other, not texting AT ALL. It's like Little House on the Prairie, practically.
I have so many questions about Gilmore Girls. I spend most of my time watching it yelling questions. Like:
- How does someone who works in hospitality never have to work nights or weekends?
- Does Kirk really have every job?
- Why have parents never freaked out about Miss Patty smoking in the dance studio?
- Why do the seasons go spring, winter, spring, fall, winter, summer and change every week?
- How many kitchen employees does the Inn have?
- And why are they all whipping egg whites by hand? No one has ever whipped egg whites by hand since the invention of electricity. As a matter of fact, right after Edison invented the light bulb, Hobart invented the electric mixer, and everyone beat their hand whisks into plowshares. Fact.
- Why has no one ever killed Lorelai for talking all the time?
- If Lorelai were ugly, would she get away with even 5% of what she does?
- How come no one ever gets pissed at Luke for having full-on arguments with Lorelai while he is waiting on them? I'd at least give him a pissy face or maybe the massive throat-clear that sounds like a walrus mating call.
- Does Lorelai ever work? Seriously. Ever??
- Why does the Inn's kitchen have tiny home sizes of food products, not industrial-sized buckets?
- What makes Sookie think small peaches are watery?
Oh, I could go on. I'm thinking of having GilmoreGirlsCon, where we all meet up at the Burbank Airport Hilton ballroom to discuss. We could have panels like "Floral Design in the Emily and Richard Gilmore Home" and "UCLA as Yale: An Insult to the Ivy League?"
Join me. I'll be the one standing by the door holding a sock, in case Lorelai shows up and I can finally put one in it.

I am working on sending a request to a web service and parsing the response. I have to use Spring 3 and Apache CXF. Using Maven's wsdl2java, I was able to generate request and response objects from the wsdl. These classes have been generated now and I see basically what appear to be annotated POJO's. I am unclear what the next step is to actually send the request to the web services. All I see is an ObjectFactory to create the initial web service.
What is the next step? Do I need to create a spring bean configuration file like this?
<jaxws:client id="XXXX"
address="http://localhost:8080/xxxx />
Any assistance would be greatly appreciates as I am not sure how to send the actual request to the web or what my next step would be. Thanks

Victor Davis Hanson: Iraq -- A Convenient Scapegoattags: Iraq, National Review, Victor Davis Hanson, Iraq War
NRO contributor Victor Davis Hanson is a senior fellow at the Hoover Institution. His The Savior Generals will appear in the spring from Bloomsbury Books. © 2013 Tribune Media Services, Inc.
Bring up Iraq — and expect to end up in an argument. Conservatives are no different from liberals in rehashing the unpopular war, which has become a sort of whipping boy for all our subsequent problems.
Wall Street Journal columnist Peggy Noonan recently enumerated countless pathologies that followed Iraq. Yet to examine her list is to learn just how misinformed we have become in our anguish over the intervention.
Noonan writes of Republicans: "It [Iraq] ruined the party's hard-earned reputation for foreign-affairs probity. They started a war and didn't win it."
We can argue over whether the result of the war was worth the cost. But by January 2009, the enemy was defeated. There was a consensual government in Iraq, there were few monthly American casualties, and there was a plan to leave a small constabulary force to ensure stability and the sanctity of Iraqi borders and airspace....
