Herbal medicines have a long therapeutic history and are still serving many of the health needs of a large population of the world. However, the quality control and quality assurance still remains a challenge because of the high variability of chemical components involved. Herbal drugs, singularly and in combinations, contain numerous compounds in complex matrices in which no single active constituent is responsible for the overall efficacy. This creates a challenge in establishing quality control standards and standardization of finished herbal drugs. Many preparations have been mentioned in Ayurvedic text books for the treatment of Urdhwaga Amlapitta (non-ulcer dyspepsia). Dashanga Kwatha is one such known formulation. In this study, Dashanga Kwatha was converted into tablet form to increase the shelf life, make it easy to dispense, for dose fixation, etc. The Dashanga Kwatha Ghana tablet was subjected to organoleptic analysis, phytochemical analysis, and qualitative analysis to detect the presence of various functional groups, and to high performance thin layer chromatography (HPTLC) examination by optimizing the solvent systems. The investigation revealed the presence of tannins, mucilage, ascorbic acid, alkaloids, saponins, glycosides, flavonoids and carbohydrates mainly.
Ancient Indian literature comprises a remarkably broad definition of medicinal plants and considers all plant parts to be potential sources of medicinal substances.[1] However, a key obstacle which has hindered the acceptance of the alternative medicines in the developed countries is the lack of documentation and rigorous quality control. There is a need for documentation of research work carried out on traditional medicines. With this backdrop, it becomes extremely important to make an effort toward standardization of the plant-based medicines.
Administration of drug in various dosage forms provides an opportunity to the physician to choose better options. Various dosage forms have been described in the Ayurvedic texts. One among them is Kwatha Kalpana, i.e. decoction.
Kwatha preparations are one among the Panchavidha Kashaya Kalpana[2] which are highly effective, but they are to be used when freshly prepared and they are often overlooked due to the preparation method and palatability.
In the present study, Dashanga Kwatha,[3] a known formulation used in Urdhwaga Amlapitta (non-ulcer dyspepsia), was converted into tablet form by Rasakriya[4] method to increase the shelf life, make it palatable, easy to dispense, for dose fixation, etc.
With the intention of standardization and quality control of the plant-based drugs, Dashanga Kwatha Ghana was converted into tablet form and analyzed by various analytical parameters.
The crude drugs mentioned in Chakradutta in Amlapitta Rogadhikara[5] for the preparation of Dashanga Kwatha were taken from the pharmacy of IPGT and RA, Gujarat Ayurved University, Jamnagar, after proper authentication by the Department of Pharmacognosy of the Institute. Then, the physical impurities were removed and the drugs were washed with water, sorted and sun dried below 45°C. Dried drugs were stored in tightly closed containers. The crude drugs used in Dashanga Kwatha with their botanical identities and parts used are given in Table 1.
The authenticated crude drugs were crushed to a coarse powder separately and then mixed thoroughly with 8 parts of water in a stainless steel container and then continuous mild heat was applied until it was reduced to one-fourth of its initial quantity. During the heating process, continuous stirring was done to facilitate the evaporation and avoid any deterioration due to burning of materials. After a desirable reduction in volume was achieved, the Kwatha was filtered through single folded cotton cloth and collected in a separate vessel.
Then, the Kwatha was boiled again over slow fire on a gas stove, maintaining the temperature between 90°C and 95°C till a semisolid consistency is obtained. As the water evaporates, the viscosity of the extract increases, resulting in Ghana[6] form. Then, the Ghana was mixed with the Churna of Dashanga (up to 10% of extract) further forming a solid mass.
The solid mass (Ghana) was forced through a no. 16 sieve and granules were prepared and then dried at 50°C in a hot air oven for 10 hours. The dried granules were passed again through a no. 20 sieve. The formulation was then compressed in a single-punch tablet press with a target weight of 250 mg.
Dashanga Kwatha and Dashanga Kwatha Ghana tablet were subjected to various analytical parameters as follows.
Comparative organoleptic characters were the following: Rupa (color) was dark brown, Rasa (taste) was bitter, Gandha (odor) was characteristic due to the specific properties of the various ingredients and Sparsha (consistency/texture) of Dashanga Kwatha was liquid and Dashanga Kwatha Ghana Tablet was smooth as given in Table 2.
pH of the Kwatha was 4.53 ± 0.03 and that of tablet was 4.21 ± 0.02, loss on drying in Kwatha was 3.4 ± 0.20% w/w and in tablet was 0.09 ± 0.01% w/w as given in Table 3.
The average weight of the tablet was 251.23 mg, hardness of tablet was 2.74 ± 0.079 and disintegration time was 33 min and friability was 0.92% as given in Table 4.
Qualitative analysis reveals the presence of tannins, mucilage, ascorbic acid, alkaloids, saponins, glycosides, flavonoids and carbohydrates in the formulation, whereas sterols/terpenoids and starch were absent as given in Table 5.
Findings of the analysis of HPTLC, heavy metals, pesticide residual value, microbial count and pathogens of Dashanga Kwatha Ghana tablet are shown in Tables Tables66–10, respectively.
Ghana Kalpana, a second derivative preparation of Kwatha Kalpana, is one of the extraction methods in which water soluble material is extracted by Kwatha method and reheated till it is converted into concentrated solid form.
The procedure adopted to convert Dashanga Kwatha Ghana into tablet form was wet granulation method of tablet preparation. Gum acacia was added as the binding agent (1%) of the derived Ghana, i.e. 70 g in powder form along with the 10% powder of Dashanga Kwatha. Its addition imparts cohesiveness and ensures that the tablet remains intact after compression as well as imparts desired hardness and size.[23] However, it has the disadvantage of being variable in its composition based on its natural origin, and it is usually fairly contaminated with bacteria. This material has the advantage of being a low-cost adhesive. Drying of granules in hot air oven was carried out at 45–50°C for 6 hours to reduce microbial proliferation. Granules were prepared by passing through sieve no. 16. In the present study, 1% talc was used as the lubricant. Since lubrication is basically a coating process, the finer the particle size of the lubricant, the more effective the lubricant is likely to be. With the help of tablet punching machine, these granules were compressed into tablets with a target weight of 250 mg.
The organoleptic parameters form the basic criteria for selecting a raw drug and also to confirm the finished product. Texture of tablets was smooth indicating the surface uniformity without cracks. This is the primary character to assess the quality of tablets. Color was brownish, taste was bitter and odor was characteristic due to the specific properties of the various ingredients [Table 2].
The pH conventionally represents the acidity and alkalinity; pH of the Kwatha and tablet showed to be weak acidic in nature.
Loss on drying indicates the moisture content; in the present sample, it was 0.1%.
Ash value depends upon the inorganic substances present in the particular drug; this parameter has importance in quality control and standardization of drugs. The higher the inorganic substances present in drugs, more will be the ash value. Here, the ash value was 12.0 ± 0.30% which may be due to the extensive heating process involved in preparation of this formulation [Table 3].
Various components have their solubility in particular media. In this study, soluble principles of the samples were seen in water and methanol; in water, it was 49.6% and in methanol, it was 40%. In both the media, solubility of sample was more as the sample itself which was used to prepare the tablet was derived from water extractive. In the solubility test, increase in water soluble extractive was found, which depicts its more bioavailability in water medium [Table 3].
Average hardness was 2.75 kg/cm2. Disintegration time was 33 min and friability was not more than 0.92% on an average [Table 4]. Physico-chemical analysis of Dashanga Kwatha Ghana tablet was done for the quality control purpose. Qualitative tests are used to detect the presence of functional groups, which play a very important role in the expression of biological activity. The present study reveals the presence of tannins, mucilage, ascorbic acid, alkaloids, saponins, glycosides, flavonoids and carbohydrates in the formulation, whereas sterols/terpenoids and starch were found to be absent [Table 5].
Preliminary HPTLC profile of Dashanga Kwatha Ghana tablet has been developed [Figures [Figures11–3]. This can be considered as the reference standard for validating this formulation in future [Tables [Tables66 and and77].
Heavy metals were not detected [Table 8], thus showing the purity of the raw drugs and also the finished product. This also indicates quality control maintenance during pharmaceutical preparation.
Medicinal plant materials are liable to be affected by pesticide residues which accumulate from agricultural practices of spraying, treating soils during cultivation and through the administration of fumigants during storage. Organophosphorous pesticides were found below the detection limit, which is a clear indication of quality land practices and safe storage of raw drugs [Table 9].
Medicinal plant matters normally carry bacteria and moulds often originating in soil in high numbers. In the present formulation, the microbial count was within permissible limits[24] [Table 10], which indicates the proper hygiene norms followed during the preparation of formulation and packing.
The study reveals that sufficient quality control parameters were followed during the preparation of formulation. Organoleptic parameters, physicochemical analysis, heavy metal analysis, pesticide residue and microbial overload analysis were carried out as per the norms of WHO guidelines and the absence of heavy metals, pesticides in raw material and microbes in the finished product indicates the genuineness of final product. HPTLC profile generated in this particular study can be considered as a preliminary tool ascertaining the authenticity of Dashanga Kwatha Ghanavati in the tablet form.

Jack Philp, a first year BA (Hons) in Contemporary Dance at Trinity Laban, has created a site-specific dance work, Anima, for the Old Royal Naval College Chapel on 31 March.
Jack choreographed Anima, which will be performed by eight Trinity Laban dance students, to a new composition played live by music students from Trinity Laban and the Royal Academy of Music, as part of the Easter Sunday service.
Jack said he had been looking for opportunities to broaden his choreographic experience: "I've done a lot of local festival work at home in Surrey, and I want to carry on exploiting this collaborative approach to dance while I'm studying, to gain as much experience as I can.
"I love contemporary dance and it's important to me - and everyone involved in the performance - that we try and take what we experience at Trinity Laban and expose it to the public eye. The Chapel has long supported Trinity Laban's music students, and now they are being equally brilliant in embracing contemporary dance."
The dance students are - Christopher Spraggs, Kenny Shim, Sara Torsvik, Ingvild Olsen, Eilidh Brown, Belinda Papavasiliou, Vivian Triantafyllopoulou and Olivia Edginton.


text: I bought a used 2006 Prius Package 7 from an estate sale with only 37k miles not too long ago. The car was serviced regularly and looks brand new. It now has 39k miles and is due for an oil change in a week or so. I have been having some problems with the reverse camera yesterday and today. I was so happy with the Prius until this issue... Yesterday morning, when going in reverse, I saw a black screen with some faint outlines of the objects behind me with a moving vertical ribbon bar moving left to right. After turning the car on and off a few times and driving about 15 miles to work, it started working again! It was great... until tonight. After accidentally overfilling the car at the pump (not going to that station again), the camera had an issue again. Same thing. Drove 15 miles home and turned the car on/off a few times...along with checking reverse mode a few times along the drive while at stop lights...and it still didn't work. Is there any way I could check to see if the connection is loose? I've seen threads for modding the Prius and all, but I honestly just want the car to function as normal. Any easy way to access camera connection? Would like to diagnose if it is the camera or a connector... I'm a new SoCal resident, so I don't know any of the cheap maintenance shops yet, but I figured if it's simple...I may just do it myself! Also, I live close to the beach. Would that make a difference on my Prius? My car just gets more dirty with dust/sand during some periods... I don't think the overfilled gas tank correlates with the reverse camera. But needless to say, I have had better days with my "new" Prius. Been getting 45mpg steadily

First there was the proposal for the bland condo tower on top of a parking garage. Then there was the schlocky box, slicked with stucco like a cheap motel. Now there is a shapely, Miami-white apartment building that teases Philadelphia with the possibility of real architecture.
Given how many proposals have come and fizzled, you may be inclined to ignore the latest design for the Delaware waterfront site that hugs the north side of the Ben Franklin Bridge's stone abutment. But the new version, created by a new architect for a new developer, appears to have legs. So, it's time to pay attention.

Took a big jump on fri...Are we off to the races????...Or back to $23ish?..thoughts?
That's up to the Greeks and the EU. The EU is "planning to have a plan" and Greece is sliding towards anarchy. If Europe disappoints, weak stocks like NRGY will get killed.
the EU will indeed continue to kick the can down the road until the can is unrecognizable. Then Europe will blow up financially.
You might test $24 again but not right away. Too much upward movement in the general markets pulling this along. If one wants to get out, I'd look at approx. $26.75-$27.25 to exit and put your capital to work in a better MLP. NRGY is not likely to move above $27.00.

Get Real, I'm looking forward to your pull pull results. Are you going to cut your own control horns? I mostly fly with the 1300mAh packs as well, since I have large collection of them. I'll try pull pull on mine soon as well.
Used some control horns i had laying around to save time. Auw came out to 27.5oz,should be able to get a few flights in this weekend with it.
Maiden Flight
Got a few flights in,i prefer the tail weight. Balanced fine with the pull pull set up on the ground but in the air it flew better for me with the servo weight in the tail of the plane. Flew two flights after the maiden with a couple hs 65 servos just placed in the factory slots and it balanced better while inverted and it flew better overall for me(manual cg was a bit nose heavy for me). Didnt do much with it getting bumped around today but will put the servos in the suggested locations and get it dialed in,expo was close for me but need to kick up the elevator throw a bit when i redo the servo set up. Best 68 bucks i spent on a plane this year,especially for a plane of this size and power class.
The other two flights with servos in the tail. Im sure results may vary depending on weight of outrunner,lipos and servos etc but it balanced well in the air for me. Guess if your concerned about the spec cg it would be good to start out with a 1500mah pack or larger,im sticking with the current set up and the nanotech 1300s for now with the servos in the tail.
Well guys I finally bit the bullet and ordered one of these and even paid the EMS freight cost from Hong Kong to get it over here.
I am gonna power it with either the KDA 22-15M or KDA 22-20L from Hobby King.
Prop with APC 11x4.7SF and Turnigy Plush 30A esc.
For servo's I plan to use the MG14's from Hobby king.
I've used them in five planes so far and although a bit more slop than the Hitec HS65MG they certainly perform ok in foam planes for what its worth.
Question on the motor, do you think these two motor choices will have enough power to 3D this large epp plane?
Not sure how they compare to other motors people have used like the Suppo 2217 and the likes of that.
Is this plane more likely to be tail heavy with the tail mounted servos? And therefor benefit from a slightly heavy 85g motor.
Lipo was going to be Turnigy 1300mA 3s.
Hey bigroger, I'd say the 22-15M would be underpowered judging by the specs. I'd go with the 22-20M. I'm pushing the Suppo 2217 beyond it's specs by quite a bit in mine, but I know that it can handle it for bursts. I don't have experience with the KDA 22-15M so I'm not sure if you could push it as hard or not.
Forgot to mention, I'm running similar weight MG servo's in the tail of mine and a 1300mAh packs and I like how it flies. I've also ran it with 1550mAh packs and 1800mAh packs (1800's don't fit well). The 1550mAh packs are ideal for weight, fit and flight duration.
Looking forward to flying mine this weekend. Will keep the same power set up i started with and the servos are now mounted in the tail per the manual but it was nice to try out the pull pull set up if you plan on a lighter set up than im using. Still difficult to believe this plane delivers on performance in the air for 68 bucks shipped.. not to mention 100 bucks less than similar sized epp planes in this class. The only thing im thinking of possibly changing is adding a bucks worth of carbon for added horizontal stab support. I might have to order another one just as a back up!
Thanks Khen,
I've also got a Hengli W28-34 1100kV from one of my 39" skywing planes.
Its a little ripper at 65grams, it will swing an APC 11x4.7SF at 320W and 30Amps draw.
Shot my 39" sbach around like a bullet out of a gun.
Sbach is retired now but motor still runs sweet as a dream.
I guess I'll play around with motors, as I have a couple of options depending on where I need the CG to be.

Got all my parts on Friday and have been building slowly for the past 2 days, (due to marching band) but ive gotten to the part where i have to install the wings in the fuse, and they do not fit nicely. the spars in the wings do not line up with the block in the fuse. not by much but enough so that it doesn't fit correctly. that's just on thing ive noticed when putting this plane together. anyone else have this problem?

Well i got it all together, no big problems. i just trimmed the wing just a little so it fit in the slot better. Maidened it on sunday, wow its alot different than the small profiles that im used to flying. But im sure ill get used to it, for 70 bucks shipped to me it seems like a great plane.

This is a repost from my main blog:
First, check this out if you didn't last night. Very education, no matter which side of the political fence you sit on. Whether you be a citizen of Gondor or Mordor, you will get something out of this.
I'd advise just to let that run while you read on or open a new tab and surf the net. Seriously, it's good stuff.
Random Gaming Musings
Here's some of the stuff that's come out over the past few days that I thought was note-worthy..
- the PSP's got some exciting stuff going on; I like the redesign, mostly. I wish the internal storage was upgradeable, and I have concerns about them being able to provide their entire library for download. Otherwise, if Disgaea, Final Fantasy Tactics, and FFVII: Crisis Core are available for download, count me in.
- I don't think it's a smart move for Squenix to limit Final Fantasy IV: the After Years to WiiWare. That's not their target demographic for the game, and never has been. Final Fantasy IV came out in 1991, which was before most Wii players were born. I think the smart money would be on releasing it on PSN for play on both PS3 and PSP, and making it so the two systems could share a save. An XBLA version definitely wouldn't hurt, either. I think that quite a few Final Fantasy fans happen to also own a Wii, in addition to their actual gaming consoles, and thus there will definitely be takers on this potential purchase, but not nearly as many as if it were spread across multiple consoles.
- A Mass Effect shooter on iPhone? Pfft. Yuck. Way to start sullying the franchise, guys.
- I gotta say, I am really looking forward to Soul Calibur: Broken Destiny on PSP. However, I guess I'm gonna hold off on buying it until it's available for download on PSP, since I don't wanna buy it twice. Regardless, I've always really enjoyed Soul Calibur, and the PSP actually seems like a good platform for the franchise. I was thinking about the controls for past entries, and this seems like it would translate well, and there wouldn't be the option for the cheesedick button-mapping of throws.
- my favorite NCAA Football feature finally returns in NCAA Football '10: school/team creation. A bunch of my friends and I all went to Columbia College Chicago (an art school) for our undergrad, and I used to always make us as a school/team in NCAA, and then go on to make a horribly obscene stadium, uniforms, players, and on and on. I'd drop us in the Big 10, since no one gives a shit about that conference (as opposed to the Big 12), and then I'd bump someone bullshit (like Northwestern) from the conference to make room for the Columbia College Chicago Killa Beez (no shit, that was the school "mascot" at the time.) Anyway, this feature was stripped from the PS360 versions, for whatever reason, but is returning this year. However, what's cool is that it's all PC-based, so you'll be able to work on your school/team whenever, and then upload it to your actual game. The team editor is supposed to be available starting in June, so that your team will be ready to humiliate the rest of the NCAA when the game ships in July. I am super, super pumped, as I used to go wild with this feature, and having it as an online app could, if properly implemented, open up all kindsa possibilities. Read about it here.
New Games
I've got a bad feeling about this year, guys n' gals. It's gonne be another crazy back-loaded year for releases. This year, I've gotten a handful of games, like Resident Evil 5, MLB09, Warhammer 40k: Dawn of War II, Company of Heroes: Tales of Valor, but almost all that was in February and March. Looking ahead, I know I'm getting NCAA Football 10 and Madden NFL 10 this summer. This fall and winter, though, will feature BioShock 2, Disgaea 2 (PSP), Modern Warfare 2, Dragon Age: Origins, Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth, Uncharted 2: Among Thieves, Soul Calibur: Broken Destiny, as well as whatever else is coming out that we don't know about yet. I know early 2010 will also see Final Fantasy XIII, Mass Effect 2, and Star Trek Online. Additionally, there are titles like Star Wars: the Old Republic, Final Fantasy Versus XIII, Final Fanatasy Agito XIII, Parasite Eve: the 3rd Birthday, Again: Eye of Providence, Alan Wake, Heavy Rain, and Guild Wars 2 that just don't have release dates yet, but could drop in the next year or so.
The point is that, once again, despite a few publishers pledging to break the cycle, we're gonna get 80% of this year's games that are worth owning all within a 4-month span. Bad. Just bad. August through November is gonna be crammed full of games, and some really worthwhile titles are gonna get crushed underfoot, especially since the Dubya Depression is really gonna limit how much cash we all have to spend on games.
This is stupid. Why not release some of these over the summer, or next summer? It seems like this time of year is totally barren of releases, and would be a great time to position a game for success. Actually, this time last year, GTA4 dropped, and I heard it did okay.
Lame. Just lame.
Open Source FTW
I reinstalled Ubuntu on my main desktop again, and as usual, it went all nice and smooth. I've been an Ubuntu user for about 3 years now, and I really gotta give 'em props and how nicely Ubuntu 9.04 handles drivers now. It used to be a bit of a challenge, at times, getting everything to work drivers-wise, but now ya just boot from a disc or a flash drive, and BAM! Everything installs, and you're ready to rock n' roll.
During that install, I was trying to install OpenSolaris on my second desktop, which has been stuck on Ubuntu 8.04 for what seems like ages. Every time I've tried to upgrade from that release, it's refused to boot afterwards. Every time I've booted it into another OS with a disc, it's started to install, then just hung. The OpenSolaris install was no different, which is unfortunate. I've been a big fan of Sun Microsystems for a long time now (OpenOffice.org and Netbeans FTW), and I like playing with Unix, and I really want to learn more about maintaining a Unix server, but the fucking machine refuses to let me install anything else on it. This is the weirdest issue I think I've seen in ages. I'm gonna play around with it a bit, and see if I get any different results when I boot from a flash drive.
Gaming on a Linux Machine
After installing Ubuntu, I proceeded to blow out a lot of the Ubuntu-provided software (I hate waiting on Ubuntu to get my updates for Firefox, OpenOffice, etc.), and then install the non-Ubuntu versions of Firefox, Thunderbird, OpenOffice, Netbeans, Wine, etc.
After I added the Wine repository, I installed Steam and XFire, then initiated the download for Quake Wars and Warhammer 40k: Dawn of War II.
I haven't tried Dawn of War II yet, since I can already predict some problems getting that to run on Linux. x
I fired up Quake Wars this morning, and it actually managed to not crash during the DirectX install. It made it all the way through the install, which was shocking, then actually started to load the game, when it seized up during the UI loading process.
So, yeah, I'm back to messing with Linux gaming, since everything runs beauuutifully on the new laptop.
Anyway, I'll be back tomorrow with more foolishness.
What's up with you guys? Anything new? Anything ya wanna comment on?
Please direct any comments to my main blog:

text: 000 FXUS63 KMPX 251741 AAB AFDMPX Area Forecast Discussion...UPDATED National Weather Service Twin Cities/Chanhassen MN 1241 PM CDT SUN SEP 25 2016 .SHORT TERM...(Today and tonight) Issued at 326 AM CDT Sun Sep 25 2016 Today and tonight...Surface analysis this morning shows a north- south cold front along nearly the entire western MN/Dakotas border with a slight warm sector holding strong in far SW MN. The main surface low feature associated with these fronts is in far southern Manitoba province. Aloft, deep southerly flow continues to stream plenty of moisture into the area in advance of a deep cutoff low over western North Dakota and this low is maintained within a longwave trough emanating from north-central Canada. Coverage thus far early this morning is not entirely impressive but a pocket of low-level jetting, evidenced by a small disturbance showing up on WV satellite imagery, is punching north through eastern Nebraska and western Iowa. Better coverage of precipitation is associated with the feature aloft but as the overall pattern presses east, so will the better coverage of precipitation. As such, aside from possibly an isolated pocket or two of heavy rain, am not expecting much better coverage of precipitation within the WFO MPX coverage area than currently ongoing so am opting to discontinue the Flash Flood Watch prior to 12z this morning. There is also quite the lack of instability along with unimpressive lapse rates so am not looking for anything in the way of strong thunderstorms. Even lightning is few and far between with this activity. As this precipitation moves east, a deep dry slot is still indicated on multiple models immediately behind the cold front but in advance of the upper level low. This will allow for some brief clearing, or at least a rise in clouds to higher levels. As the upper level low rotates northeast toward southeast Manitoba province, the trough axis will open up and expand southward. The cooler core aloft combined with trapped moisture within the base of the trough will spark scattered rain showers moving in from the west and northwest later this afternoon and evening. The showers will linger over northern and eastern portions of the coverage area through daybreak with low clouds also holding strong over much of the area this evening through overnight tonight. Post-front, temperatures today will be noticeably cooler and remain as such through tonight. Highs today will only hit the 60-70 degree range, which is some 15 degrees cooler than readings recorded over western and southern Minnesota yesterday. Lows early Monday morning will drop to the 45-50 degree range. .LONG TERM...(Monday through Saturday) Issued at 326 AM CDT Sun Sep 25 2016 Forecast concerns in the extended period deal with the evolution of an Upper Low forecast to develop and intensify over the Great Lakes early next week, and slowly drift southward. Last week`s upper air pattern had been more progressive with a fast southwest flow aloft and a very potent long wave trough along the west coast. This long wave trough has progressed eastward over the Rockies and into the plains, providing ample moisture to the Upper Midwest overnight. Things will dramatically change over the next two days as models continue to forecast an Upper Low forming over the Great Lakes. This will lead to much cooler conditions as the flow becomes northwest-north across the Upper Midwest. As an Upper Ridge forms north of this Upper Low, a blocking type pattern will develop, leading to slow changes in the weather department, especially over the Great Lakes. The GFS had been more persistent in previous runs of this Upper Low development, and now the latest EC/GEM have come more in line with this scenario. Therefore, confidence has increased for this cooler pattern with instability showers rotating around this Upper Low as it drifts to the south next week and weakens. An Upper Ridge will slow begin to build south and west across the Rockies by late in the week. This ridge will build over the Upper Midwest next weekend. Therefore, temperatures will slowly begin to modify with above normal temperatures once again by next weekend. I don`t see any widespread or organized precipitation pattern once todays system moves off to the east-southeast. && .AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Monday afternoon) Issued at 1241 PM CDT Sun Sep 25 2016 MVFR cigs are in place across most of MN and WI with a small area of clearing immediately behind the rain now pushing into central WI. Some slight rises in cigs can be expected this afternoon with VFR conditions likely from this evening and beyond. A few showers may impact AXN and STC through the evening. Otherwise, strong winds will develop Monday with gusts in excess of 30 kt area wide. KMSP...Borderline MVFR/VFR cigs expected into this evening, then VFR after. Northwest winds will ease this evening, but strengthen again Monday morning. /OUTLOOK FOR KMSP/ Tue...Chc MVFR early then VFR. Wind NW 10-15 kts. Wed...VFR. Wind N 5 kts. Thu...VFR. Wind light and variable. && .MPX Watches/Warnings/Advisories... WI...None. MN...None. && $$ UPDATE...JPC SHORT TERM...JPC LONG TERM...JLT AVIATION...BORGHOFF

While waiting at Tokyo's Narita International Airport to board his flight to New Zealand on Aug. 13, U.S. progressive singer-songwriter David Rovics was informed that he was banned from entering New Zealand.
The Portland, Oregon-based Rovics is known for his extensive touring, doing concerts in support of progressive causes and workers' struggles in the U.S., Europe, and Australia. He has done benefit concerts for this website and the Communist Party in Oregon as well as the Communist Party of Denmark in Copenhagen. He is known for such songs as "The Commons," "The Last Lincoln Veteran," and "The Saint Patrick Battalion." His music celebrates the working class, trade unionism, and the national liberation struggles of the Palestinian and Irish peoples.
His current tour centers on his latest album, "Into a Prism," which he describes as "very topical songs about recent events such as the revelations about the NSA's global 'Prism' spying program."
He was due to perform in Wellington, New Zealand, next week, but as things stand now that is unlikely to happen.
He writes in his blog:
"When I got paged over the intercom to the All Nippon Airways desk, I was nervous, but figured it was something about a seat assignment on the flight from Narita to Auckland that I was about to board. The woman from ANA handed me a cell phone and said that someone from New Zealand Immigration in Auckland wanted to talk to me."
"Mr. Rovics, why are you coming to New Zealand?" the immigration officer asked.
"I'm playing six small gigs."
"Do you have a work permit?"
"No," I replied, "I was hoping I could get one when I arrived. I was under the impression it was a formality that could easily be taken care of when I got there."
"Which is true. Although I sure was wishing I had taken care of this formality a long time before. Which is what I had done before my three previous tours of Aotearoa, aka New Zealand. The problem is, unless you live near a city with a New Zealand consulate in it, which I don't, you have to mail your passport in to their embassy in Washington, D.C., and be without a passport for several weeks, which is a logistical challenge for someone who tours as much as me."
The immigration official then questioned Rovics about immigration problems he had encountered in Norway and Canada, asked how much money he would be bringing to New Zealand. She then informed him that he could not enter the country without a work permit.
Rovics writes, he then asked, "Can I cancel all my gigs and come in on a tourist visa?"
"The immigration official replied to that: 'You can't board that flight. You're not welcome in New Zealand.' With the ominous comment, 'I've read your blog,' she ended the conversation."
The tone of the immigration officer and the reference to Rovics' blog mark this refusal of entry as political.
On his last tour in 2012 Rovics performed at a trade union rally in Dunedin, New Zealand, protesting the right-wing National Party government of John Key and its adoption of the "90-day working bill," which permitted firms that have less than 20 workers to discharge them without cause in their first 90 days of employment.

These pictures have me bubbling over with joy, feeling all warm and bubbly inside… you get the picture. ;) In a nutshell, this party is seriously cute. AND approachable! Janice Carnevale of Bellwether Events is at it again for baby Scarlett; she brought a simple theme to life in such a fun way for this Bubbles & Brunch 2nd Birthday Party. I absolutely adore the balloon topped cupcakes and the backyard setting… and look at how happy the sweet birthday girl looks! Is there really anything better?
PARTY HIGHLIGHTS to look out for:
– Fabulous "Pop On In" Balloon Door "wreath"
– Round (bubble inspired) Snacks: grapes, donut holes, Danish Pancakes, Bagels & more
– Darling DIY Balloon Cupcake Toppers & Felt Hat for the Birthday Girl
– Every little one's dream: a Homemade Bubble Pit!
PARTY DETAILS, as told by Janice…
Some of you may remember Scarlett's first birthday party that was featured on HWTM last year! We are back with a just-as-fun party this year for her second birthday! Since Scarlett and her dad Brett are both super into bubbles, mom Terra and I thought a brunch and bubbles birthday party would be the way to go! The tag line was Pop On Over for Bubbles and Brunch — Scarlett is Turning Two!
Parents Terra and Brett love to host their friends and family at their home. Luckily the weather was mild this year and we were able to spread out all over the yard. The backyard was filled with anything and everything related to bubbles. We had a bubble machine, 3 different bubble stations with varying sized wands, a "bubble pit" — aka a pool filled with bubbles (OK they were really clear beach balls, you got me) and a bubble wrap popping station for the kids to jump on. We also had a coloring station with sheets of bubble designs to color.
In addition to brunch appropriate finger food, we included a wide assortment of bubble shaped foods, like grapes, blueberries, donut holes, and Danish pancakes — which look like pancake holes (check your local Trader Joe's). We DIYed the balloon cupcake toppers for an extra "pop" on the table. For the adults we offered some bubbly drinks to accompany a variety of juices, including peach, pear, and orange. We used paper lanterns and balloons to continue with the bubble theme in the decor.
Guests left the party with their own bottle of bubbles, a wand, a rubber ducky for bubble bath fun at home, and a few pieces of double bubble gum.

Thank you so much for featuring Scarlett's party!
Brittany W. SAYS:
Janice, what a lovely party! And love the theme! I was thinking about doing something similar for my daughters second bday, and particularly LOVE your "bubble pit" with the clear beach balls! I thankfully found a site that carries them in varied sizes, but was curious…do you happen to remember how many you bought to fill up that kiddie pool? I know it's a random question, but as I'm getting ready to order, I honestly can't quite figure out how many to purchase, without purchasing TOO many/spending too much but also making sure I get enough! Thanks so much!

Chris Bryant got it absolutely right when he referred to Putin's Russia as a "regressive, oppressive kleptocracy".
It is a backward and chauvenistic country with an appalling record on LGBT rights.
Now Putin and Medvedev predictably want to score points by calling for Pussy Riot's release.
It is just a question of time: Russia's "Arab Spring" will come one day. And when it does, hopefully Putin will face trial.
I wouldn't hold your breath on that one.
The oligarchs are far too firmly entrenched to walk away from such power.
'arab spring', that pseudo democratic exercise that gave political credibility to religious nutters and made lives of lgbt people in those countries much worse
I fear you are right about that.
An alternative expression to "Arab Spring" needed.
Pussy Riot staged a political protest against the Russian Orthodox Church's support for Putin. The fact that it took place on church property is neither here nor there. We should regard the women as political prisoners – not hooligans. Putin makes the point that Russians should support and protect the ROC from harm because it was severely repressed under Stalin. Another history lesson for Putin puts the ROC in full support of the Tsarist regimes that oppressed the people and kept the country in a backward state of feudal slavery for centuries while the rest of Europe progressed.
An interesting fact is that Stalin went to a Georgian Orthodox seminary and that during ww2 stalin himself chose the church leader so they would support his regime.The orthodox church was filled with KGB agents who spied all churchgoers so as you see the ROC has a tradition with serving ALL russian regimes blindly
It's a shame that Medvedev didn't have enough power when he was president to prevent Putin's comeback as President for a previously illegal third term.
It was clear from Putin's tone what might have happened to him if he had tried to prevent it. He said " those who try to push us aside will regret it" was said angrily in a different context at the time, but I think it was clear what he was really talking about.
But neither of them want martyrs in jail, so obviously they will be released on appeal.
Just like everyone else in Russian politics and religion that has called for PR's release only after they were sentenced to prison. He doesn't actually mean it, and is only saying this to calm the frustration of Russian citizens.
I'm running "Drag race" in Soho on Sunday dedicated to Pussy Riot. Come and support us. Queer Power.
last thing pussy riot would want is a political charity from putin's puppet
Clearly, Russia still has a long way to go to accepting LGBT issues.
Send all these officials to San Francisco or Brighton for a month and perhaps they'll soon start to change their thought process.
They are digging a grave for him in Siberia as we speak…
Idiocy, the wiki does not even have detailed descriptions of past actions pussy. such as a
video on the street they were engaged in public sex, or frozen chicken shoved her vagina,
they are not saints. the hype is nothing but a provocation, I believe, paid for by
corporations who wish to convince the community at the beginning of the "Arab Spring",
it's all done for the outflow of capital, monopolization of natural gas prices and more.

World briefs
Afghan bomber's attacks kill 3 near U.S. base
KABUL, Afghanistan -- A vehicle driven by a suicide bomber exploded at the gate of a major U.S. military base in eastern Afghanistan on Wednesday, killing the attacker and three Afghans, Afghan police said. The Taliban claimed responsibility for the attack.
Police said a local guard who questioned the vehicle driver at the gate of Camp Chapman was killed, along with two civilians and the assailant. The camp is located adjacent to the airport of the capital of Khost province, which borders Pakistan.
Taliban spokesman Zabiullah Mujahid said in an e-mail that the bomber targeted Afghan police manning the gate and Afghans working for the Americans entering the base. He claimed high casualties were inflicted.
Morsi calls for dialogue on contested constitution
CAIRO -- Egypt's president, saying the just-approved constitution establishes a new republic, called on opponents to join a dialogue to heal rifts over the charter and shift the focus to repairing the economy.
In the first speech since official results a day earlier showing the constitution was approved in a referendum, Mohammed Morsi said he acknowledged the "respectable" proportion that voted against the constitution drafted by his Islamist allies. But he offered no concrete gestures to an opposition that has so far rejected his offer of dialogue and vowed to fight the charter.
The opposition questioned the legitimacy of the constitution, arguing it passed with a very low turnout of about 33 percent and without a national consensus. They said the charter restricts freedoms, ignores rights of minorities and women and enshrines Islamic rule.
Mandela out of hospital, to receive care at home
JOHANNESBURG -- South Africa's presidency said Nelson Mandela, the anti-apartheid icon and former president, has been released from a hospital.
The 94-year-old had been in the hospital since Dec. 8. He was diagnosed with a lung infection and also had a procedure to remove gallstones.
In recent days, officials have said Mandela is improving, but doctors have taken extraordinary care with his health because of his age.
Presidential spokesman Mac Maharaj said Mandela will receive more medical care at his Johannesburg home until he fully recovers.
Explosion kills one at fireworks warehouse
LAGOS, Nigeria -- A massive explosion ripped through a warehouse full of fireworks in Nigeria's largest city on Wednesday, sparking a fire that threatened surrounding city blocks and sending a plume of thick smoke high into the sky. At least one person died and 15 others were wounded, emergency officials said.
The blast occurred at about 9 a.m. in the Jankara area of Lagos Island, a neighborhood of narrow streets and tall cement buildings holding shops and housing people sometimes a dozen to a room. The force of the explosion echoed miles away and shook windows.
Many people were injured when they stampeded through the area's narrow alleyways, a spokesman for Nigeria's National Emergency Management Agency said.
Casualties could rise as rescuers continue to clear debris from the fire.
The spokesman said that the explosion was not suspected of being an attack.

12/10/15 - 50 Arts Labs & 50 Custom Labs
Get the last 2 books in the series! This one rounds out the set at 6 books, just like the 50 STEM Labs Series. Hopefully, it will be as popular. It certainly has more variety than the STEM Labs set, just on account of the different subjects for each book.
Another basic set of forms. This one has 25 copies of 4 different sheet music pages for 100 pages total.

This is my second CCG, something I made about 10 years ago but never finished. It has 104 cards and a full set of rules. I'm also working on a 3rd CCG. I really want to expand into new markets, and this is sorta fantasy/sci-fi related, so it makes it more exciting for me than always doing educational stuff.
06/27/15 - Spell Wars
This is my first CCG. It has 270 cards and a full set of rules. I'm not sure what part of the site to put it on yet. Probably with the novels and whatnot, seeing how it's not particularly educational... New section perhaps for games?
06/18/15 - Basic Skills Workbook #7
Here is volume 7 in the set. It's a bit shorter than the others, but it's a great quick workbook! I can see teachers using this a LOT.

I am MOST definitely on a roll these days. :) I think this makes book 25 for the year, or something along those lines...
Check out my latest card game!
05/07/15 - Nursery Rhymes Book
This is volume 6 of Little Learning Labs' Basic Skills Workbooks.
04/30/15 - Treasure Hunt Board Game
What a way to round out the month, eh? 3 books in 3 days. I know they're short, but they still take thinking and planning to make them. This bumps the BGIAB Series up to 4 volumes! There may be more to come. I'm getting a little burned out on them, though, so I might work on something else for a while.
Say hello to educational book #30 and volume #3 in the Board Game in a Book Series: Polar Plunge. It's a fun turn-taking, strategy type game for the wee ones. Plus, it's in a nice winter theme.
This is the latest in my Little Learning Labs Basic Skills Workbook Series. It's all about Phonics, which should compliment some of the others in the series quite nicely.
This is the latest in my 50 STEM Labs series, focusing instead on activities and labs, rather than building and engineering. It's aimed at a slightly younger audience, as well.
So, wishful thinking has me believing that migrating all of my works of fiction to Amazon will have a great effect upon sales! Previously, all my fiction was on lulu (other than kindle versions) and all my educational stuff was on amazon's createspace. I spent 2 solid days redoing covers and playing around with settings as I made these new products on Amazon, too. I know you could get most books on Amazon through Lulu's expanded distribution, but I think the prices might have been worse for it.
While redoing stuff, I've had to redo the Perennials covers almost from scratch. You can see the new versions above, as well as an updated, cooler (hopefully) Afterlives cover.
04/06/15 - Board game in a book series
04/02/15 - 8th grade common core workbook
The last one has arrived! I got all 3 done this week. Very pleased with how they turned out.
I'm expanding my common core line! Add this to Common Core Assessments to help assess middle school standards. Grade 8 is coming soon!
03/30/15 - 6th grade common core workbook
I'm expanding my common core line! Add this to Common Core Assessments to help assess middle school standards. Grades 7&8 are forthcoming!
Volume 4 to the Basic Skills Workbooks Series focuses on Colors. Included are 50 pages of exercises on colors, color groups/families, and color theory. Great for PreK-K and Primary grades.
03/12/15 - Movers & shakers 2nd expansion
This new expansion adds 72 MORE cards to the game. If you get all 3, you'll have over 200 cards! Plus there are always the blank ones so you can add your own cool ideas.
03/10/15 - dealing with archetypical children
I know it must seem like every day almost that I'm adding something! It almost is, either on one of my sites or on the educational sales sites!
Here is my latest, a revamp of an educational behavior manual that sells pretty well. I thought it was time to slap a cover on it and sell it in print!
03/09/15 - Make Your own comic books
Make Your Own Comic Books is my latest art education book! get the details on the book's page!
03/05/15 - monster zoo math game
Monster Zoo Math is another card game type activity game I've made for print. It's a math one, obviously, and another in my expanding list of titles. :)
02/26/15 - Movers & shakers expansion set
So it seriously looks like someone lit a fire under me this month, eh? This marks the 6th book released this month. Honestly, the Basic Skills Workbooks were already done and only needed some tweaks and covers. This one I made in a single day! It's short but fun, an addition to the Movers & Shakers base set.
02/24/15 - Basic skills workbooks
My latest efforts have produced these 3 basic skills workbooks for kids. Pretty soon, I expect there to be more. We'll see how these ones do, though.
02/17/15 - movers & shakers card game
Wow! 2 Books in one month, eh? Well, this is a really short one, the shortest I've ever released. It's only 26 pages. It's an educational card game. I wanted to get it out and up for sale ASAP!
Maybe there will be a follow-up with more cards! Hello, expansion sets!
02/02/15 - word builders
I wanted to make a phonics tool to go along with my Sentence Builders and Weekly Sentence Strips books. This one is probably the best phonics word-building tool on the market. I looked at what everyone else was doing and doubled or tripled it!
