Compendium Volume 1 Number 1 July 2017
Although often overlooked, ignored or taken for granted, earthworms are nevertheless keystone soil species, mediators and moderators for rebuilding healthy, biodiverse, high carbon and moisture rich topsoil [Darwin 1881; Blakemore 2016c]. We depend on soils for more than 99% of our food and 100% of our timber and natural fibres [Blakemore 2012, Pimentel 2013]. As an integral part of organic production, earthworms are key to agricultural sustainability and global ecosystem stability. Ancient in origin (probably pre-Cambrian but certainly more than 500 million years old), the 7,000 known species of earthworms are ubiquitous and invariably associated with topsoil humus. Earthworms are a basis of terrestrial food webs and the ultimate detritivor [Blakemore 2016c], recently reinstated as key players in the International "4 per 1000 Initiative" [4p1000.org, n.d.] to increase soil organic matter to store carbon. In this section, we discuss the abundance and variety of earthworms and their role in soil health and functionality.
Extrapolating data from Darwin [1881], their population numbers around 1.3 x 1015 or 1.3 quadrillion globally with biomass of 0.4 t/ha x 9.5 Gha of productive land = 3.8 Gt. This is about ten times the biomass of all humanity, and twice that of both all domesticated stock and total global fish [Blakemore, 2017]. Forming possibly the largest beneficial animal resource on the planet, earthworms are yet apparently severely depleted by cultivation and agrichemical excesses of industrial farming, often being absent from such soils [e.g. Lee 1985] with both their populations and biodiversity in decline [Blakemore 2016a, b, c].
In comparison to intensive agrichemical farming, studies by Blakemore, [2000, 2016a, b] show a diverse array of up to 23 earthworm species per organic farm site (mean 13 spp), implicated in 16-80% increased crop or pasture yield (mean +39%) plus an average of 12% extra soil moisture storage (range 7-91%) compared to conventional neighbour farms. Carbon sequestration is restored at rates two to three times higher in pasture. Such findings are highly relevant due to looming species extinction and climate change with requirement to meet the needs of a growing population. Organic farming can thus produce higher yields and sequester more carbon.
Earthworms may number up to 1,000~2,000/m2 (10-20 million/ha, or 4-8 million/ac) in fertile soils with biomass as high as 3-5 t/ha, (1.2-2 t/ac ) so earthworm stocks may outweigh the above ground stock [Lee 1985; Blakemore 2016c, 2017]. Earthworm abundance and diversity increase in a truly sustainable system as they convert all organic 'wastes' into humus-rich compost while processing all atmospheric CO2 in 12 yr cycles [Blakemore 2016a]. Their burrows, as long as 9,000 km/ha (2250 mi/ac) [Kretzchmar 1982] and up to 15 m in depth (49.2 ft) [Sims & Gerard, 1999: 27, as cited in Blakemore 2016c] aerate, improve water infiltration and, importantly, provide habitats for many other beneficial organisms and microbes that they help distribute throughout the entire soil profile. All rainfall is filtered through their burrows and water is stored in worm-worked humus. Blakemore [2000] found up to 90% extra water in pasture compared to adjacent arable fields, and organic arable soil stored 40% more water than chemically farmed arable soil [Blakemore, Hochkirch 2017].
Wormless soils are economically and ecologically expensive: they need to be plowed regularly, and require extra irrigation plus subsidized artificial chemical nitrogen fertilizers and biocide sprays to fight off plant infections and infestations [Howard 1945; Balfour 1975]. This toxic burden has severe impact upon non-target organisms and any organism fed the crops – including humans – as well as poisoning the soil, air, waterways and oceans. Such findings are summarized in Lady Eve Balfour's IFOAM presentation in 1977 [Balfour 1977]. Another compelling reason for earthworm conservation is that it is impossible to "geoengineer" by addressing isolated variables the many benefits and essential irreducible systems services that earthworms freely and relentlessly provide. In other words, we have no viable alternative to earthworms.
Soil and Earthworm Relationships
We face a complexity of inter-relating ecological problems. Intensive chemical agriculture is a major GHG contributor (28-50%) and a major source of extraneous CO2 (currently 10-25% and in total historically up to 40%) [Houghton 2010: 338, 348]:
Globally, the conversion of lands to croplands has been responsible for the largest emissions of carbon from land-use change. . . From 1850 to 2000, land use and land-use change released an estimated 108–188 Gt (billion tons) of carbon to the atmosphere, or about 28–40% of total anthropogenic emissions of carbon (274 Gt C from fossil fuels) [Strassmann 2008].
The FAO [Gerber 2013] found that intensive industrial livestock farming (rather than organic husbandry) contributed 14.5% of human-induced GHG emissions. A newspaper report [Bryce 2013] comments:
The FAO's last livestock report, a 2006 assessment titled Livestock's Long Shadow, found that farms breeding chickens, pigs, and cows for meat and dairy products, produced a disconcerting 18% of global greenhouse gas emissions . . . Around 30% of global biodiversity loss can be attributed to livestock production, such as the spread of pasture land or turning over forests and savannahs.
Although these figures vary due to different formulas for budgeting, it's clear that agriculture in all its forms, including the practice of forest clearance, is a major contributor to GHG emissions.
The traditional, innovative & scientific methods of non-chemical, organic farming and Permaculture appreciate the importance of earthworm conservation [Howard 1945; Balfour 1975; Mollison 1988]. As a key player in natural processes and crucial issues, Darwin's "lowly earthworm", although neglected, warrants re-ascendency to its former position as premier farm livestock [Howard 1945]. For our own health and for that of our planet, we urgently need wholly natural vermi-composting at all scales (from kitchen to continent) in order to replace synthetic fertilizers and to facilitate rapid transition to broad-acre organics that also has earthworm livestock at its core. Enabling earthworms to restore healthy soils is vital to stabilizing climate. All organic 'wastes' and manures should be recycled via vermi-composting and appropriate management employed to enhance populations of field-working worms.
Earthworm Article Summaries
van Groenigen et al. 2014. In a recent meta-analysis, while not considering organic farming or carbon per se, this study confirmed earthworm presence corresponding to crop yield increases of 25%, which is comparable to average ~39% extra organic yield in soils with earthworm proliferations determined by Blakemore [2000, 2016b]. This supports earlier studies by Wollny [1890: Forschungen auf der Gebiet der Agrikultur-Physik, 13, s. 381] that found addition of earthworms to soil led to a marked increase of cereal grain by 35-50% and of straw by 40%.
Solomon 2013.
Although earthworms are beneficial in gardens and agricultural fields, they are harmful to Michigan's forests where they are an invasive species. . . . Earthworms are not native to Michigan and the Great Lakes region, at least not since before glaciers covered the region; they were brought here during European settlement in the 1800s or possibly earlier. Plants, wildlife and forests evolved without any of these creatures around. They are now an invasive species that harms forests.
Hardwood forests without earthworms have a thick layer of slowly decomposing leaves, or "duff" that promotes a rich community of wildflowers, tree seedlings and small animals. Earthworms change that environment dramatically by essentially consuming the duff, thereby destroying habitat and reducing fertility. In contrast to their effect in gardens, earthworms cause forest soils to become more compacted. As a result of habitat loss, fertility declines and soil compaction, these forests may be less productive and have poorer new tree regeneration in the long run.
Another view, from oligochaetologist (worm scientist) Rob Blakemore, is as follows:
Regarding popularized concerns about alien Asian invasive worms threatening to destroy American native forests, this may reasonably be regarded as part of a process that is commonly known as Ecological Succession [Odum 2005].
Ironically, the ecological concept of succession started with Thoreau and Cowles on studies of forest succession and on the Lake Michigan dunes. Large parts of the northeastern North America were glaciated up to about 10,000 years ago completely destroying all land surfaces and forming the Great Lakes. When the ice retreated Nature returned in successive waves and, gradually, the soil, vegetation, and animals communities re-established and species continue to evolve.
According to Darwin [1881] earthworms are supremely important for natural productivity and for the recent progress of human civilizations. In this context the woodlands of Michigan seem a relatively minor issue compared to species extinction and climate change. Healthy soils generally harbour earthworms and it appears there had been insufficient time for these slow-moving and flightless organisms to colonize without fast-track via incidental intervention of most-recent human settlers, often as anglers on the Great Lakes.
When exotic crops and stock were introduced around the world 10,000 years ago, so too were attendent earthworms and these have now spread to "pristine," albeit transitional, woodlands. The many benefits earthworms have for agricultural and unmanaged soils may cause some changes in more natural habitats but this is a virtually unavoidable and irreversible force majeure and fact-of-life.
Certainly there will be a new ecological balance in time, possibly at a different level of productivity and biodiversity. That is the definition of succession.
Héry et al. 2008. Earthworms have been observed to increase methanotrophy (methane metabolic breakdown) in soil covering a landfill; this is most likely "due to the stimulation of bacterial growth or activity than to substantial shifts in the methanotroph community structure" [Hery 2008: 92].
Earthworm-mediated bioturbation has been linked to an increase in methanotrophy in a landfill biocover soil (AC Singer et al., unpublished), but the mechanism of this trophic interaction remains unclear. The aims of this study were to determine the composition of the active methanotroph community and to investigate the interactions between earthworms and bacteria in this landfill biocover soil where the methane oxidation activity was significantly increased by the earthworms [Hery 2008: 92].
We proposed the hypothesis that earthworms could stimulate the growth or the activity of methanotrophs. We showed that the earthworm-mediated increase of methane oxidation in the landfill biocover soil only weakly correlated with a shift in the structure of the active methanotroph population. Future work needs to focus on the relationship between this earthworm effect on enhanced methane oxidation in landfill cover soil and this effect on bacterial activity and growth. The possible contribution of an enriched population of nitrifying bacteria to methane oxidation also requires further investigation [Hery 2008: 101].

Compendium Vol. 1 No. 2: Introduction


Researchers reveal how attackers may be able to peer into users' computers over the Web.
The Internet is already a difficult place to maintain privacy, and now two security researchers have revealed new ways to spy on Web users via the browser. At a presentation at DEFCON 17, a hacking conference held in Las Vegas last week, the researchers showed a variety of ways to snoop on people online, despite the privacy tools employed by most browsers.
Robert Hansen, CEO and founder of the Internet security company SecTheory, and Joshua Abraham, a security consultant for the security company Rapid7, demonstrated how to do everything from obtain details of the software running on a user's system to gain complete control of a computer. If the attacker can convince the user to visit a website he controls, perhaps through a link in an e-mail, a number of attacks on the user's browser become possible.
The attacks worked with minimal participation from the user and, in one case, none at all.
"Your privacy is up to whichever site you're visiting and what browser you're using," says Hansen, who emphasizes that users cannot trust the privacy controls built into a browser to keep them safe. "[Browser] privacy buttons are just a basic protection," he says. In many cases, they're mainly designed for benign situations, such as protecting a user's privacy from other members of a household. To a determined attacker, however, Hansen says these privacy protections aren't enough.
Hansen and Abraham showed how an attacker could build up detailed information about a user and her system with a variety of simple tricks. For example, by persuading a user to cut and paste a particular URL into a browser bar, an attacker can discover the person's username and the name assigned to her computer, and can gain access to files on that system. Similar attacks can detect what plug-ins the user has installed in her browser.
This sort of information can be used to build a targeted attack against a particular user, Abraham says. Knowing which plug-ins a user has installed, for example, makes it easier to break into a system using a software flaw.
Hansen and Abraham raised privacy concerns about Google Safe Browsing, a commonly used extension for the Firefox Web browser that is designed to warn users about malicious websites. The researchers say that the tool performs that function well, but it also regularly issues a cookie that could be used to track all of the websites that a user visits. This information could be revealed if, for example, a government chose to subpoena the data.
Abraham went on to demonstrate a Java applet–code that runs inside the browser–that could grant an attacker access to a user's machine, including encrypted files, and to the machine's microphone. To pull this off, the attacker has to get the user to click twice–once to visit a page the attacker control, and once to click through a browser warning. However, Abraham says that an attacker could disguise the applet as legitimate software related to programs the user has already installed.
While many of the attacks revealed by the pair need to be customized to a particular person, Abraham says it might be worth the effort if, for example, an attacker is trying to gain access to a particular company network.
Hansen adds that the attacks don't call for much technical skill. "Most of the hard work has already been done for you," he says, since many of the tools needed to pull off the attacks are freely available online.
Kate McKinley, a security researcher with San Francisco-based iSec Partners who studies browser privacy, agrees that plug-ins such as Flash can open up privacy holes. She notes that most browsers offer a feature that clears private data, but says this often doesn't cover what is stored in plug-ins or certain newer browser features. Cookies stored in Flash, for example, can persist even when a user switches browsers, since they store data in a different dedicated location.

Honey Lee Announces Marriage To Non-Celebrity Boyfriend
By blessedkpop On Dec 21, 2021
Honey Lee got married to her boyfriend!
Lasts month, it was confirmed that the actress is in a serious relationship with a non-celebrity. On December 21, her agency Saram Entertainment announced that she held a private wedding today.
Here is her agency's official statement:
Hello, this is Saram Entertainment.
We have good news regarding our label's actress Honey Lee.
Honey Lee, who met a precious person, promised to become lifelong partners [with him] based on trust and affection for each other.
Considering the difficult times, instead of holding a wedding, the two got married on December 21 through a vow ceremony somewhere in Seoul that was attended by only their families.
We hope you will send congratulations and blessings [to Honey Lee].
In addition, Honey Lee's spouse is a non-celebrity, so we politely ask you to refrain from excessive speculation about his personal information.
We ask for your kind understanding.
In the future, Honey Lee will return with a more mature image and good acting as an actress, so please give her a lot of attention and support.

0,There's one more thing to consider when using Native UI APIs; if you're doing
something wrong, the app will crash—no exceptions thrown! That's why, you should
follow these good practices:

	• Remember to assign a null value to deleted/removed elements in order to
	avoid misbehaviors in case you reuse them
	• When possible, do not recreate UI elements—reuse them
	• Do not reassign elements
	• Do not change the UI type's prototype

1,When a NW.js application starts, it may take a bit between the time when
the main window is displayed and the time when the code is evaluated.
In order to give a better user experience, you'd rather hide the main window
until all the background jobs have been completed. To achieve this, you'll have
to hide the application editing the manifest file as follows:

    {
     "window": {
      "show": false
      }
    }
    Then, you can exploit the onload event:
    var gui = require('nw.gui');
    window.onload = function() {
    gui.Window.get().show();
    }

That will eventually show the window when everything is fully loaded.
Another use for this technique is for creating background applications
that live in the system tray.

2.As stated in the introduction, window is nothing more than a
wrapper of the DOM window object.

    var gui = require('nw.gui');
    var currentWindow = gui.Window.get();
    var language = currentWindow.window.navigator.language;
    console.log(language);

3,Instantiating a new window object
There are many ways to instantiate a window object. When you need to refer to the
current window, all you have to do is to call the Window.get([window_object])
method leaving the attribute empty, as follows:

    var gui = require('nw.gui');
    var currentWindow = gui.Window.get();
In order to instantiate a different window object, you can proceed with passing the
DOM window object to it through the get method:

    var gui = require('nw.gui');
    var extraWindow = gui.Window.get(
    window.open('window.html');
    );
Otherwise, use the Window.open(url[, options]) method:

    var gui = require('nw.gui');
    var extraWindow = gui.Window.open('window.html', {
    position: 'center',
    width: 640,
    height: 480,
    focus: true
    });

As illustrated, the open method has an optional attribute, which allows you to set all the options of the window. You can find a reference of all the available settings in Chapter 6, Packaging Your Application for Distribution, as they are the same used in the manifest file .

There are also some custom options that can be used with the open method:

- new-instance: true: This will open the window in a new WebKit process.

- inject-js-start: path/to/script.js or inject-js-end: path/to/
script.js: This will run the provided JavaScript code before any other
DOM is constructed or after the document object is loaded but before the
onload event is fired.

4,Closing windows
Let's say, for example, we have an application with a main window and a settings
window and we want to achieve the following result:
• Closing the main windows should close all the application windows and quit
• Closing the settings window should save the settings
Hence, when closing the main windows, the settings window should have an
opportunity to save the data before quitting. Here's how we can implement that:

    • index.html (main window):
    var gui = require('nw.gui'),
    mainWindow = gui.Window.get();
    window.open(settings.html');
    mainWindow.on('close', function() {
    gui.App.closeAllWindows();
    this.close(true);
    });
    • settings.html (settings window):
    var gui = require('nw.gui'),
    settingsWindow = gui.Window.get();
    settingsWindow.on('close', function() {
    // Save data here
    this.close(true);
    });

A special note should be added to Window.close([force]) as this method and the
relative event, which we saw previously in the App.closeAllWindows() example,
can be really handy to save data when closing a window. Moreover, all the shutdown
work might slowdown the closing process, so, in the while, we'd rather hide the
window in order to improve user experience. Here's a simple example:

    var gui = require('nw.gui'),
    currentWindow = gui.Window.get();
    currentWindow.on('close', function (event) {
    // Hide the window
    this.hide();
    // Save data
    // ...
    // Close the window
    this.close(true);
    });
    currentWindow.close();

The closing process provides another event, which can be used when more than one
window are at play. I'm talking about the closed event, which is triggered when a
window is closed and all the associated JavaScript objects are released:

	var gui = require('nw.gui'),
	newWindow = gui.Window.open('window.html');
	newWindow.on('closed', function () {
	newWindow = null;
	});

In the preceding example, you can see we have respected the good practice of assigning
null to an object when the object is being removed. Later in the code, we might
check for the extraWindow variable value to be different from null in order to verify
that it's still available.

5,App.on('reopen', callback): This works only on Mac OS X; it's fired
when the user clicks the dock icon for an already running application.

Kiosk mode currentWindow.enterKioskMode()/currentWindow.leaveKioskMode()

6.The taskbar icon – get the user's attention!

- **Window.setShowInTaskbar(bool show)**: This allows the setting of the show
  attribute to false, which will hide the icon.
- **Window.setBadgeLabel(string label):** This is a pretty cool and mostly
unknown function of NW.js. It allows the showing of a string of text inside
a little badge near the application icon. It works fine in Mac OS X and Microsoft Windows, but does not work on most Linux distributions, except for Ubuntu, which can display only numeric values.
- **Window.requestAttention(number|bool count):** Sometimes, you just
need to get the user's attention when your application is minified or not
focused. Window.requestAttention() behaves differently depending on
the operating system. On Mac OS X, the application must not be focused
in order to fire requestAttention; if the count parameter is set to -1, the icon
will blink once, while if set to 1, it will blink until you give it some attention.
On Microsoft Windows, both the icon and the window will blink the
number of times set in the count parameter, for example, currentWindow.
requestAttention(5). On Linux (tested on Ubuntu + Cinnamon DE), all
values of count will work except for 0; the icon will not blink if the window
is already active.
- **Window.setProgressBar(number progress):** When running timeconsuming
processing, it might come in handy to show a simple progress
bar over the application icon in order to keep the user updated while they
are doing something else. The progress attribute takes values in the range
between 0 and 1, so, for example, 0.5 will be half way.

7,Other Window APIs
There are a few other Window-related APIs:

- Window.title: This sets or gets the window title at runtime
- Window.cookies.*: This lets you set or get window cookies
-  Window.menu: This associates a menu to the window (we're going to deal
 with it later in this chapter)
- **Window.reload()**: This reloads the window
- Window.reloadIgnoringCache(): This reloads the window, thus cleaning
the cache
-  Window.setAlwaysOnTop(): This sets the window at the top of all the other
 applications' windows
- Window.isTransparent and Window.setTransparent(transparent):
These APIs allows you to set the background of the window as transparent
(for example, Adobe Photoshop splash screen)
-  Window.showDevTools([id | iframe, headless]), Window.
- closeDevTools() and Window.isDevToolsOpen(): These let you open,
close, or check for the visibility of DevTools at runtime
-  **Window.capturePage(callback [, image_format | config_object ]):**
   This takes a screenshot of the window
- Window.eval(frame, script): This evaluates a given script in the
 provided frame
- Window.zoomLevel: This sets or gets the window zoom level (it might
 be useful when dealing with 4k displays)

There are also many events we can listen for in order to implement
better applications:

- • capturepagedone: This is fired when Window.capturePage() succeeds; a
 buffer argument is passed
- • devtools-opened and devtools-closed: This is emitted when DevTools is
 opened or closed
- • zoom : This is fired when the window is zoomed; a parameter with the zoom
 level is passed
- • loading and loaded: This is relatively emitted when the window starts to
 reload and when the window is fully loaded (an alternative to window.load
 that doesn't rely on the DOM)
- • document-start: This is fired when the document object is available, but
 before any other DOM object is constructed or any script is run, a frame
 attribute will be passed if we are dealing with an iframe
- • document-end This is fired when the document object is fully loaded; before
the onload event is emitted, a frame attribute will be passed if we are
dealing with an iframe

8,The Shell API – platform-dependent
desktop functions
The Shell API is made of a set of methods that allow you to leverage platformrelated
tasks:

    • Shell.openExternal(String URI) : This will open any given URI
    (http://, mailto:, and so on) with the default system application if one has
    been associated; otherwise, nothing will happen.
    • Shell.openItem(String file_path): This will open any given file with
    the default system application if one has been associated; otherwise, the
    Open with dialog will be shown.
    • Shell.showItemInFolder(String path): This will open the given path
    inside the system file explorer/finder.
    Here's a simple example to open Google.com on your default browser:
    var gui = require('nw.gui');
    gui.Shell.openExternal('http://www.google.com');

New life for a Chicago landmark
Renovation & Restoration:
Listed in the National Register of Historic Places as a prime example of mature Art Deco design, Loyola University's ornate limestone Skyscraper Building is one of Chicago's architectural treasures. Beginning with its construction in 1929 by the Sisters of the Blessed Virgin Mary as Mundelein College, a progressive women's school, the Skyscraper Building has always been part of an institution of higher education. The edifice was the world's first high-rise college and includes lavish materials with intricate details both inside and out. Over the last decade, the building underwent an extensive overhaul that addressed the stonework as well as other elements.
The 14-story structure is located on Sheridan Drive, along the beautiful Chicago lakefront. Its Art Deco-designed exterior consists of a structural steel frame, cast-in-place concrete, and common brick, clad in Standard Buff Gray Indiana limestone panels. Numerous carved limestone sculptures, including two 4-foot carved limestone angels at the entrance (which were the tallest sculptures in Chicago at that time) and an elaborate parapet wall embellish the facade.
Mundelein College thrived throughout the Great Depression and into the 1960's, when the need and popularity of single sex colleges began to dissipate. In 1991, Loyola University purchased the last all-women's institution in Illinois as an addition to its Chicago campus. With their purchase came the University's desire to preserve the deteriorating historic landmark.
In the mid-90s, the architectural and planning firm of Schoengart Associates, Inc. was commissioned to provide architectural, engineering and construction administration services for the extensive exterior renovation program. The project was the first exterior work performed on the building since its original construction.
The repair process began with a hands-on inspection to assess the degree of damage incurred over the years and to develop a scope of work for the restoration project. Each stone of the Skyscraper's building was sounded by architects and structural engineers. This was a daunting task when the building design is taken into consideration. With three setbacks forming eight different rooftops, the staging of the project became quite a challenge. Both full pipe scaffolding and swing stages were employed to fulfill all inspection requirements - and subsequent construction.
During the elevation inspections, the limestone panels were surveyed and categorized according to their condition. "Spot inspections" of the steel shelf angles were also made to determine the condition of the steel and to gain an understanding of original construction techniques. Given the age of the Skyscraper Building, numerous elevation and detail drawings had been lost. In addition, the existing drawings proved much less informative than Schoengart Associates had initially expected. Therefore it was necessary to prepare new elevation drawings to illustrate exterior conditions and to locate areas of particular restoration interest.
The Skyscraper project was an immense management endeavor, with strict university construction rules and historical status guidelines. For all parties involved, the top priority was the safety of the faculty and students, as the building was fully operational throughout construction. Very limited staging areas were designated to minimize interference, and all intrusive or major demolition work had to be scheduled during school vacation periods. The amount of work and the stringent schedule of the project also required architects and restoration crews to work year round. But Chicago's harsh weather usually halts all exterior work during the winter months. In this situation, special canvas canopies and heating units had to be created to keep the crews and their materials at a workable temperature.
Typical construction technology in the 1930s did not include water management details. Lacking the ability to handle Chicago's severe climate, the walls and shelf angles became vulnerable to the destructive effects of water. The mortar joints were found in poor condition with cracking and bond loss apparent, allowing further water infiltration. As a result, the building's steel structural systems exhibited extensive damage, as illustrated by the deteriorated parapet walls which heaved upward and tilted inward. Additional building system deterioration was found in the cracking and spalling of many limestone panels and the extensive corrosion in the structural steel frame.
Repair work included the replacement of 2,000 limestone panels and 30,000 bricks. All replaced stone panels were secured with stainless steel pins and epoxied to the building's base structure.
Panels which were deemed repairable were left in place and reconstructed using Jahn Restoration Mortar, a masonry conservation product. Because the limestone is not uniform in its coloring, special training was necessary for the masonry artisans utilizing the Jahn product. Color samples were prepared with mixing instructions, and the craftsmen applied their newly acquired techniques to the limestone. Great care had to be taken in determining the proper color mixture to blend the Jahn repair with existing stones.
Contemporary water management details were added as well. This included mastic bond flashing consisting of an asphalt rubberized polyethylene membrane with a termination bar, stainless steel drips and chord weeps. Approximately one full mile of steel shelf angles were removed and new galvanized steel was set in their place. Repointing of the entire facade, repair of the glass solarium, and reconstruction of the parapet walls completed the project. After over 75,000 masonry man hours alone, the Skyscraper restoration was completed, on time and under budget.

From MG Software, Triple Blocks is one of Monty's Games for Windows. The playing field is filled with colored blocks. The object of the game is to remove all the blocks from the playing field with the fewest swaps. Do this by swapping blocks so that three blocks of the same color form a vertical or horizontal line. When three blocks form a line, they are removed from the playing field and any blocks above them drop down. To swap two blocks just position the mouse over them and click the left mouse button.
Outwit the computer in this simple but very addictive strategy-logic game. Prevent the game field from filling up with blocks by moving them so they form lines of 4 or more of the same color. The lines are removed, but the computer adds more blocks. THERE NEEDN'T BE A PATH TO THE DESTINATION ! The chosen block is moved along that path to the destination and any new lines formed are removed and you earn points.After every move you make, the computer adds blocks to the playing field. The number of blocks added depends on the difficulty level choosen.

Breaking tradition: airborne sensor operator makes history
An E-3 Sentry arrives for Red Flag 20-1 at Nellis Air Force Base, Nev., Jan. 23, 2020. The E-3 Sentry is an American Airborne Early Warning and Control aircraft (AEW&C) and will provide all-weather surveillance, command, control, and communications to participating aircraft during Red Flag 20-1. (U.S. Air Force photo by Airman 1st Class Christina Bennett)
by Staff Sgt. Gregory Nash
Pacific Air Forces Public Affairs
Enclosed in a dimly lit aircraft soaring over the Pacific Ocean, a man intensively stares at images of aerial and maritime threats on his console display. While scanning the screen, he simultaneously details the most accurate, real-time picture of the battlespace to mission crew leaders.
Illuminated by the monitor's glow, U.S. Air Force Staff Sgt. Daniel Propst, 961st Airborne Air Control Squadron, Kadena Air Base, Okinawa Japan, sits and embraces the challenge of being the Air Force's first E-3 Sentry Airborne Warning and Control System (AWACS) airborne sensor operator.
Eight years total in the making, the Ponce de Leon, Fla., native is proud to have fulfilled his dream of continuing his family's Air Force tradition. Though he's held many unique jobs in his lifetime, his newest gig is the most rewarding.
"This accomplishment is a unique feeling," said Propst. "Since I first saw the airborne mission systems job description prior to joining, I was excited about the mission. Although I have added responsibilities with the new position, the excitement is still there and I'm glad enlisted members have this opportunity to greatly improve the Air Force mission."
Due to job demands, officer equivalent airborne sensor operators are more likely to move to a staff duty or ground assignment, which can hinder a member's airframe readiness and proficiency. In contrast, enlisted aren't put into non-flying billets as often.
As the enlisted trailblazer for his aircraft, Propst leads a 4-member surveillance team out of Kadena AB. Now, he's enhancing his readiness in the Western Pacific at COPE North 2020, an annual trilateral field training exercise at Andersen Air Force Base, Guam.
With US Forces, Japan Air Self-Defense Force and the Royal Australian Air Force personnel performing one mission as a multinational task force, Propst looks forward to providing blue air control and a single integrated air picture to the blue forces during the 17-day exercise.
"Being able to fly, brief and debrief with the Japanese and Australian forces in a large-scale movement like this is special for me," Propst added. "This experience can help in my day-to-day job by not only solidifying and refining our own operational procedures but helping develop new ones. Having the ability to exchange expertise with our partners ensures the safety and security in the theater. The same people we are training with are the people we will depend on in the worst-case scenario."
For Propst, seeing the hundreds of sorties over the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands and the Federated States of Micronesia take place will stand out, but honing his proficiency and taking them back to home station is the ultimate goal.

title: "React v0.3.3"
layout: post
author: Paul O'Shannessy
---

We have a ton of great stuff coming in v0.4, but in the meantime we're releasing v0.3.3. This release addresses some small issues people were having and simplifies our tools to make them easier to use.

## react-tools

* Upgrade Commoner so `require` statements are no longer relativized when passing through the transformer. This was a feature needed when building React, but doesn't translate well for other consumers of `bin/jsx`.
* Upgraded our dependencies on Commoner and Recast so they use a different directory for their cache.
* Freeze our esprima dependency.

## React

* Allow reusing the same DOM node to render different components. e.g. `React.renderComponent(<div/>, domNode); React.renderComponent(<span/>, domNode);` will work now.

## JSXTransformer

* Improved the in-browser transformer so that transformed scripts will execute in the expected scope. The allows components to be defined and used from separate files.

Please help us to keep our membership database up to date by e-mailing any change of employer, address, telephone numbers or email address to the Secretary.
Internationally recognised examinations are as follows.
The Journal of the Institute of Brewing, which publishes original scientific work of a high quality on all topics related to the raw materials of brewing, the brewing process and related fermentation process is available to members by contacting the IBD website www.ibd.org.uk . Its contributions are drawn from Universities, Colleges, Laboratories, Research staff in Companies and individual experts all over the world. Published quarterly, it carries critical survey articles and abstracts of relevant papers which have appeared in other journals.
Members also receive The Brewer and Distiller International which includes feature articles of general interest covering both science and technology, raw material reports and news both of Institute activities and from the industry in general. It is essential reading for technical staff and examination students.
This journal is published monthly and like the Journal is distributed in over 70 countries worldwide. Members also receive technical reports and other printed material. The Institute runs Brewster courses in technical management as preparation for candidates sitting their examinations. It also provides support through a Brewing Science and Technology series of publications, and the development of further study material is being addressed. Similar courses are now being run within the Africa Section, using local and overseas experts. Recent venues included Lagos, Nairobi, Harare and Seychelles. The Section subsidises the cost of these courses to a significant degree.
Section newsletter at least three times a year.
For an annual subscription that is little more than that for an individual member, the company can become a corporate member. This gives it the right to nominate one person as its representative and this person has all the benefits of a member. The company can change its representative from time to time, without his/her going through the normal formalities for membership.
Any further employee who wishes to join, has to apply for membership in the usual way. It is normal for brewing companies to support the Institute in this way (in addition to their technical staff being individual members); corporate membership is also well worth considering by allied traders, and the benefits to them are clear.


The horror! An epidemic! Forcibly vaccinate these fools who are a danger to us all—walking timebombs of disease! This is biological terrorism!
Objectivity. What more could you want? What could be more objective than science? What could be less open to dispute? Who could be more authoritative than a scientist? What could influence public opinion more thoroughly than a whole group of scientists, an establishment of scientists, backed by the government?
Notice that when a news anchor takes an unimpeachable statement from a scientist, they both sound like scientists. The double whammy.
It impresses the rubes and yokels and even the well-educated viewers.
It's a system of persuasion.
Science is never "concluded." Mr. Obama and other ideologues may think the truth is finalized ("The science is indisputable"), but the reality is our understanding of disease and treatment are constantly being updated. Just like Newton's mechanical paradigm of the universe was supplanted by Einsteinian physics, and physicists today modify that view, medical "truth" is not the truth for long. In an attempt to quantify change in medicine, years ago a cardiology journal discussed "The Half-life of Truth." cardiologists looked back in their journal at 20-year-old articles to see how much of what was believed then was still believed to be true. The answer? 50 percent.
So let's review—we have a doctor who edited a prestigious, peer-reviewed medical journal for years who says you can't trust findings published in medical journals, another doctor who says vaccines do not have the efficacy they are touted to have, and two different court decisions finding that vaccines caused autism. Does that give anyone pause? If not, why not? At some point, one has to ask whether or not one's conditioning is contrary to the truth.
More questions than answers regarding a vaccine-autism link? A CDC scientist thinks so. So why not the needle-pushers?

Implementing Distribution Considering the Environment
We are striving to reduce the environmental impact caused by our distribution and transport operations, from procurement of ingredients and packaging materials to delivery of products to consumers. More specifically, we are promoting a modal shift and the use of larger vehicles, and also have a highly efficient truck transport system in place owing to a computerized system we developed in-house. In 2018, sales (KL) was 106% and the CO2 emissions increased 5% to approximately 133 thousand tons compared to the previous year, but the unit production was 21.9 (CO2 emissions/thousand kL of sales), which was 99% compared to the previous year. We will continue to promote initiatives to further reduce emissions.

Promoting the Use of Larger Vehicles
The Suntory Group is promoting shipping with large-scale vehicles to lower the number of trucks on the road. In particular, large-size trucks that use a trailer are being promoted in conjunction with efficient allocation of vehicles for shipments to each product vendors from production sites by truck.
Promoting Modal Shift
We are promoting a modal shift to rail and sea transport which produces fewer CO2 emissions than trucks when transporting over medium to long distances. In 2018, the modal shift rate was 47.8%, 40.6% of which was sea transport and 7.2% of which was rail transport. In the future, we will also steadily promote modal shifts for summer heat waves.
Changes in modal shift ratio
Changes in the modal shift ratio are calculated based on long-haul (500km or more) trips
Suntory Liquors Ltd.*1 has been certified as 1st Eco Ship Mark*2 certified company in 2009. In addition, Suntory Liquors Ltd. received an Eco-Rail Mark certification from the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism in 2011.
Currently Suntory Spirits Ltd. and Suntory Beer Ltd.
Eco-ship Mark system certifies cargo owners and logistic operators that use more than set amount of sea cargo that is friendly to the environment.

Shipping Through Various Cargo and Shipper Integration
The Suntory Group has introduced the Integrated Transportation® Arrangement that calculates the optimal combination of vehicles and routes for various cargo and shipping locations. This reduces the distance and time with the number of trucks to use and the remaining capacity. In addition, we are reducing the environmental burden even further by limiting the loss when transporting goods with efforts such as sharing distribution information with other companies to combining cargo of multiple companies in one truck. We also ask our distribution partners to drive comprehensively in a way that reduces the environmental burden such as using idling stop systems and attaching digital tachometer that enable accurate monitoring and management of vehicle operation status.
Diagram of Integrated Transportation Arrangement®
Promoting Initiatives by Cooperating with Distribution Affiliates
201 of our distribution affiliates (as of FY2018) have acquired certifications, such as the ISO14001 (55 sites) and Eco Stage (141 sites) as well as Green Management advocated by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism, with the aim to further reduce the environmental impact. In addition, in response to amendments to the Rationalization in Energy Use Law, the Suntory Group collected CO2 emissions data such as the monthly distance driven by vehicles, the amount of fuel consumed, and the useful load of distribution affiliates. Moreover, we are supporting the efforts of affiliate companies in initiatives that include raising awareness such as eco driving and promoting the use of green eco belts that can be uses over and over instead of palette warp to prevent cargo from shifting.

Promoting Collaborative Efforts with Other Companies
We are promoting distribution through cooperation with other companies such as joint distribution and joint use of containers as transportation measures that will lower the environmental impact.
Starting Period
Suntory Group Kirin Group Joint distribution of soft-drink beverages within Chiba prefecture July 2009 Reduced CO2 emissions approx. 46 tons/year
Suntory Logistics Ltd. Toyobo Logistics Co., Ltd. Each company packs cargo on return trips in vehicles that only have one-way cargo January 2010 Reduced CO2 emissions approx. 100 tons/year
Suntory Logistics Ltd. Toshiba Lighting & Technology Corporation Joint use of railway containers January 2011 Reduced CO2 emissions approx. 140 tons/year
Suntory Group Four beer companies Joint distribution in some areas of Hokkaido (Kushiro/Nemuro) September 2017 Reduction of approximately 330 tons of CO2 emissions per year
(*Figures apply to all four beer companies)
Round-trip use of containers transported by sea (joint use with other companies)
One of our social responsibilities is to engage in reduction of the environmental impact caused by transporting import goods. We have been conducting an initiative to handle export goods by jointly using the containers that we use with other companies within the country based on this belief in February 2011. Up until now, we have been able to realize efficient transport reducing our CO2 emissions through the round-trip use of containers that would have flown back empty.
This initiative was presented the Minister Prize of Economic, Trade and Industry at the Green Logistics Partner Awards announced in December 2013.
Round-trip Use of Containers


Winter has officially hit Texas with complete disregard of the fact that I wear shorts pretty often. Well I did, I've been forced to change my habits because of the exceedingly "cool" weather. It's odd to walk outside on a nice Texas day only to be chilled to the bone with an windy ice blast to the face and bare legs. Yesterday it was actually colder here than in New York so I'm not just being a wimp about it.
Along with the sudden onset of winter comes the time to garnish the house with all things winter and holiday related whether it's Christmas, Hannukah, or Kwanza, I don't discriminate. A warm fire roaring in the fire place, sweet spiced scents drifted around the house, maniacal laughter from your family members. We recently put up our Christmas tree, or Holiday tree as my school would call it, which was ultimately my signaling that it was in fact time to be in that blissful "spirit" regardless of whether it's a monday or not. Because yes, Mondays don't exist during the holidays.
I talk often with my family members, girlfriend, and friends about how much I'm going to enjoy sitting back on the winter break drinking a steaming cup of velvety and rich hot chocolate. First off, that's a ridiculous thing for me to say because I don't really drink hot chocolate very often at all. Though I might since I just got some Eating Evolved's new hot chocolate in the mail. A few friends of mine always mentioned marshmallows though, which kind of made me feel like my hot chocolate was less of a beverage due to that.
Well I say no more piteous and marshmallow-less hot chocolates for this guy. I found a way to make them myself with mainly gelatin and a mixture of honey and maple syrup rather than an excessive amount of sugar and corn syrup. As much as I would like to take credit for figuring this out entirely myself, I have to say that I used Jenni's from the The Urban Poser plain Marshmallow recipe as a reference to create my own.
It really doesn't get much better than a refined sugar free, honey/maple sweetened, fluffy marshmallow flavored with fresh vanilla bean and coffee to get me going. And even though it's not necessary for myself it happens to be dairy free and egg free for those of you with intolerances out there. You can also put these fluffy off-color white masses of pleasure into your hot chocolate and turn it into a vanilla bean mocha hot chocolate. I totally planned that, yep.
I'm not trying to sway any of your possible marshmallow rituals, I'm merely saying that you can instantly make a hot chocolate twice as seductive with the addition of these. Or just stuff them too many of them in your mouth and play the game chubby bunny. Actually on second thought please don't do that, turns out there has been at least 2 deaths from it, and even if you do survive I doubt your body with thank you.
Adapted from The Urban Poser's Rustic Marshmallows. This is much easier than it looks I promise. You'll have your very own refined sugar free, egg free, dairy free, marshmallows in no time.
Grease an 8x8 baking dish with coconut oil and line it in both directions with parchment paper. Grease the parchment paper and dust a layer of arrowroot powder on the bottom of it to prevent the marshmallow from sticking.
In a standing mixer add unflavored gelatin and pour in cold brewed coffee. Give it a stir with a fork to make sure it's well mixed. Leave it in the bowl to let the gelatin bloom. The gelatin will bloom as you make your syrup for the marshmallows. WIth a sharp knife slice the vanilla bean in half lengthwise. Gently scrape the vanilla beans from the inside of the pod and place them into the mixer with the blooming gelatin.
In a small/medium saucepan add the water, honey, maple syrup, and salt. Place it over medium heat and bring it to a boil then attach a candy thermometer to the side of the pot and into the liquid making sure it doesn't touch the bottom. Boil it breaking any bubbles with a fork that may get too high in the pot, just make sure not to stir the liquid itself when doing this. (if your syrup begins to bubble uncontrollably high, slowly lower your burner temperature to keep it level but try to avoid going all the way to low). Once your thermometer registers 235-240 degrees or soft ball stage fahrenheit turn off the burner and take it off the heat immediately.
With the whisk attachment on, turn your stand mixer on to slow/medium. Pour your syrup down the side of the standing mixer bowl in a slow and steady stream, making sure not to pour it directly in the center of the bowl. Once all of the syrup has been poured in let it mix for 10-20 seconds to assure that the gelatin bloom is well incorporated and mixxed with the syrup.
Increase the speed of the mixer to high and mix for 7-8 minutes or until the mixture has the consistency of marshmallow cream and has turned white.
Immediately transfer the marshmallow by scraping it out with a scraper into the prepared 8x8 baking dish (you really have to work fast here as it can begin to set very quickly). Even it out with the scraper and lightly sift some arrowroot starch over the whole top of it. Cover it with parchment paper and let it set for at least 4 hours and up to overnight. I let mine go overnight.
Cut them into pieces with a large sharp knife and dust/toss them with some more arrowroot powder to prevent them from sticking to each other. Enjoy!
Note About Cold Brewed Coffee: Some of you may not know what cold brewed coffee is but I assure you that there are many grocery stores that now carry it. My favorite brand that I use is Chameleon Cold Brew. Cold Brew Coffee is stronger than regular coffee so it works well in a recipe with minimal liquid added. You can substitute chilled coffee in the same amount but the flavor of coffee will be less pronounced.
Note About the Vanilla Bean: You can get vanilla beans at almost any grocery store or buy them online and I don't recommend skipping it at all. If you absolutely cannot find it anywhere and don't want to order it online you can substitute 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract and simply add it to the marshmallow cream after it has thickened to a marshmallow cream consistency and let it whisk 10-20 more seconds to incorporate it. LIke I said though I don't recommend it as the flavor will be a bit different in comparison to fresh vanilla bean.
Last year I tried making my own marshmallows with a recipe similar to this. To save some time I attempted to used Vanilla Bean Paste and the entire batch seized up into a gooey, unspreadable blob. Unsure of what had happened, I tried again and got the same result. On my third attempt, I omitted the VBP and used only vanilla extract, since I didn't have an actual vanilla bean on hand. This finally got me the delicious, fluffy 'mallows I was after.
I can only assume that there is something in the VBP that does not play well with the gelatin.
Well mine didn't seize up into a gooey, unspreadable blob and I think it's likely yours did because of the paste or because you did something wrong. Adding a little bit of vanilla bean is not going to cause something like this to seize up. If you have ever dealt with a fresh vanilla bean they only yield about 1/2 teaspoon maximum of dry vanilla beans from 1 pod, that makes a negligible effect on texture and mass of substance in a recipe, so I highly doubt that it could be the vanilla bean. If you try using fresh I'm 99 percent sure it will work just fine. Otherwise you're doing something wrong at some point in the recipe like overheating the syrup or not pouring it slow enough.
The pictures are absolutly stunning!!!! And dang it, I wish I could have coffee. I'm crying right now. Oh well Ben will have to eat the for me.
Dang it Jenni, now I feel bad again.
These are absolutely delicious in hot chocolate. They melt and create a creamy marshmallow foam over the top of the liquid. Definitely going to want some more of these ASAP.
I am new and quite intimitated by cooking and Paleo but really want to do it as I am on a mission to loose weight.
You are an inspiration and a total delight! I love this recipe I look forward reading and trying them all.
What kind of liquid would you recommend substituting if I didn't want to use coffee?
Just equal parts water and you should be good. So you would total at 1 cup of water instead. Good luck!
Have you tried roasting these marshmallows? Are they roastable? I'm guessing not but just wondering. Thanks!
You actually can roast them, they do it quite wonderfully!
How much water do I have to cook out of the syrup? Could you tell something more about the consistency?
Soft ball stage is the temperature that was listed in the recipe. It must be at that temperature in order for the syrup to be correctly heated. I'm afraid you do need a candy thermometer in order to do this recipe. Sorry about that!
Well, I did succeed anyway. (Obviously, one can make them without a candy thermometer). But it would be helpful for others without a candy thermometer to read in your recipe about the consistency of the syrup, to judge by sight when is the right moment to take it off the heat.
Did you dip it in cold water to check for soft ball stage? That is an exchangeable method but most people don't like to go through that trouble.
I was excited to try these marshmallows after having them pinned for quite some time. I finally tried them and all went well (took a really long time to get to soft ball stage, though, which I suspect has something to do with the mixture of honey and maple syrup, which likely has a different collective water percentage than pure sugar, or corn syrup, for that matter), except for the part when I quickly poured/spread the marshmallow cream into the baking dish. I did it super quick and got it in before it all set, or so I thought, but I could not get the top to be smooth, no matter what I did. Of course, the more I tried, the more time elapsed, and the more set it became, thus negating my efforts. What do you recommend in order to get the top to set smoothly? (I even tried gently and not so gently banging/tapping the bottom of the pan on the counter–to no avail). Thanks.
The top should've been smoothed out by the last part of the recipe where you dust the top with starch and then place the parchment paper on top and smooth it out. That should have been enough to keep it somewhat smooth. If that wasn't enough then your marshmallow may have set a little to much. Sometimes they set faster than other times, you really do have to work very quickly. I hope they still turned out alright!
If I don't have a standing mixer, will a hand mixer with a whisk attachment have enough power to get it to the right consistency? Also, does the cold brew coffee need to be heated up to activate the gelatin?
I'm brand new to cooking and this seems perfect for Christmas! Thanks!
Hey Alba, I don't think that you could make this without the power of a stand mixer especially if it was your first time. No the cold brew does not need to be heated up. I highly recommend getting a stand mixer though, I use mine all the time! This is my favorite one.
I LOVE Chameleon CB Coffee. I think it's from TX and IMO it's better than our more local Stumptown. I've been using Chameleon straight for baking, and was delighted to read just now that you do the same. I still prefer single cup pour over Blue Bottle coffee to any other that I've had, and that's what I normally make at home, but I always have Chameleon in the fridge for baking or when I'm in to big a rush to brew a fresh cup.
I love this whole post. Homemade gifts, and especially edible ones, are the BEST gifts and are truly in the holiday spirit. You've inspired me to order a case of jars from Amazon for the coming holidays. Josh, your talent seems boundless.
This recipe sounds amazing- is it possible/have you tried to use a vegie friendly substitute for gelatine? Just wondering if that would work? Thanks!

Compassionate Release
Federal statute allows the Bureau of Prisons (BOP) to request compassionate release for an offender in extraordinary circumstances. The BOP recently modified its policies to allow for greater use of its authority to move for compassionate release after reports reflected an underuse of this authority. If you or your loved one needs assistance in this area, contact us today.
While compassionate release is now being supported by the BOP more frequently, compassionate release still remains difficult to obtain. In general, inmates will not be considered for compassionate release unless:
1) the inmate has a terminal illness;
2) is confined to a wheelchair or bed for 50% or more of the day; or
3) the inmate has children who has lost their non-incarcerated caregiver due to illness or death.
A request for compassionate release is made to the Warden of the institution first. If approved, the request is transmitted to the BOP in Washington, DC for consideration. If the Director of the BOP approves the request, the U.S. Attorney's Office will then file a motion with the inmate's sentencing court requesting immediate release.
DON'T WAIT!! If you or your loved one needs assistance in this area, contact us today.

Q: Inconsistent Overpass API rate-limiting between local machine and server? Once a minute, I run the following Overpass query (incrementing the minutes accordingly):
[adiff:"2020-06-16T17:56:00Z","2020-06-16T17:57:00Z"];
nwr(changed:"2020-06-16T17:56:00Z","2020-06-16T17:57:00Z");
out meta geom;

During testing, I was running the same script on my local machine and my server. My computer can constantly get responses from the server and is rarely rate limited (maybe 2% of the time). My server, however, gets rate limited 90% of the time and rarely has a call succeed. My server has a dedicated IP and I am certain no other calls are being made to the Overpass API other than this one call per minute. Any ideas as to why the server is getting rate-limited while my local computer can complete requests as expected?

A: Most overpass servers have a rate limit. The main overpass server is heavily used and will result frequently in rate limit (although they indicate that you can safely query up to 10k times per time, which is mostly not the case). Try using the kumi overpass as one alternative.
Thereby, many universities have private overpass api's, maybe you can try to contact them to ask if you can use one.
Another alternative is to create an own overpass api (not sure if that's what you are already doing).

We had some festive fun when we made these fill and shake ornaments at our crafty playdate!
We had the guys from LalyMom over a few weeks ago and we decided to make these "fill and shake" ornaments. They are just perfect for little kids to make!
I prepared some glue, sequins, glitter and some clear acrylic fillable ornaments. The silver glitter and the multi-colored sequins were kindly sent to us by craftprojectideas.com for free.
F (2.5yrs) and Ladybug (3yrs) started by squeezing glue into the ornament halves then it around the inside with a foam brush.
Then they added a variety of sequins to their ornaments.
Because of the young ages of the children I added the loose glitter to the ornaments for them. This was for damage limitation as much as their safety! Then we closed up the two halves of the ornament and it was time to SHAKE! Unfortunately F had wandered off by this point so Ladybug finished his ornament for him.
We then had to leave the glue in the ornaments to dry. Note: The glue dries a lot faster if you open up the ornaments again! For a playdate craft this worked fine as the ornaments could be taken home closed (but glue still wet) and then opened up and left to dry.
Once the glue had dried they looked stunning!
I have got to find some of these plastic ornament balls! Good luck with your etsy store!
Lovely! They'd be great to do at a Christmas craft party! hanks for linking to Festive Friday.
I found your post at Family Fun Friday. These look great, and perfect for little people to make 🙂 Thank you for sharing!
Yes the clear ones with just the open top are much easier to find! I'd love to hear if it worked! You'd maybe need a funnel for the glitter though?
What fun ornaments! Thank you for sharing at Sharing Saturday!
Pinned and featuring at Family Fun Friday!
Awe, such a cute project – they look like they had a great time.
We tried to do this craft by squeezing in the glue and adding the glitter. Not wise. Using the foam brush is a must smarter idea! lol!
LOL! How did the final ornaments turn out?

CAMP VERDE – When John Teah opened J.T. Bistro two years ago, his plan was to open five restaurants in seven years.
By the end of September, Teah hopes to open his second restaurant. Called Magic Wok, the Asian restaurant will be located in the old Ming House building in the same center J.T. Bistro is located, at 348 S. Main St.
Whereas J.T. Bistro is classic elegant dining, Teah plans for Magic Wok to be "more affordable," he says.
When Ming House left Camp Verde, that meant no Asian restaurants in town.
"And I love Chinese food," the chef and entrepreneur says.
But Magic Wok isn't just going to serve Chinese food, Teah says. Lovers of Thai, Vietnamese, Korean and Japanese food will also appreciate the restaurant's offerings, he says. Even Indian and Filipino food will be on the menu.
Though Teah says the website is "a work in progress," it does show a menu with poultry, pork, beef and seafood entrées, as well as vegetarian options. And all entrées are served with choose of fried rice, steam rice or house noodle.
Noodle and rice dishes, soup and salad and appetizers will also be available.
Though Magic Wok is labeled casual Asian cooking, that doesn't mean it's typical, or cheap, Teah says.
Take the sauce, for example.
"Everybody has a regular sauce for their egg rolls. We'll have a special sauce," Teah says.
Called Magic Wok sauce, it goes with egg rolls and vegetable rolls, he says.
And most importantly, everything is cooked to order.
For more information, visit https://www.magicwokaz.com. Or call Teah at J.T. Bistro at 928-567-7502.

GMB, the union for staff in the AA, are alarmed that the AA's defined benefit pension schemes liabilities have ballooned to £622m at the end of July 2016. The Pensions Regulator must examine the role played by previous owners which is impacting on the current pension deficit.
GMB has been warning for years of the draining of money out of the AA since it was acquired by private equity owners in 2004 when CVC and Permira acquired it from Centrica in a £1.75bn deal. When the AA and Saga (owned by private equity company Charterhouse) merged in 2008, Andrew Goodsell, Saga Chief Executive, received £104m and Tim Parker, CEO of the AA received around £40m. Private Equity bosses shared a £1.7bn windfall after the merger with CVC Capital Partners, Permira Advisers and Charterhouse General Partners sharing the payout.
Paul Grafton, GMB regional organiser said, "This ballooning pension deficit needs to be examined and the role of those that sucked money out of the AA, people like Tim Parker and Damon Buffini and companies like Charterhouse, must be scrutinised in detail. The Pensions Regulator must examine the role played by previous owners and get them to put some of the billions they made back into the AA workers pension pot.
The BHS pension deficit reached £345m on Philip Green's watch, just over half of the current AA pension deficit, and played a prominent role in the work and pensions select committee and the business, innovation and skills (BIS) committee investigation into the BHS collapse. Politicians have demanded that Philip Green uses some of his personal fortune to plug the BHS pension shortfall.
