Dong quai may increase the risk of bleeding when taken with drugs that increase the risk of bleeding. Some examples include aspirin, anticoagulants ("blood thinners") such as warfarin (Coumadin®) or heparin, anti-platelet drugs such as clopidogrel (Plavix®), and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs such as ibuprofen (Motrin®, Advil®) or naproxen (Naprosyn®, Aleve®).
Caution is advised when using medications that may lower blood sugar. People taking drugs for diabetes by mouth or insulin should be monitored closely by a qualified healthcare professional, including a pharmacist. Medication adjustments may be necessary.
Dong quai may affect blood pressure. Caution is advised in people taking drugs that lower blood pressure.
Dong quai may increase the amount of drowsiness caused by some drugs. Examples include benzodiazepines such as lorazepam (Ativan®) or diazepam (Valium®), barbiturates such as phenobarbital, narcotics such as codeine, some antidepressants, and alcohol. Caution is advised while driving or operating machinery.
Dong quai may also interact with acetaminophen, agents that increase sun sensitivity, agents that stimulate or treat disorders of the nervous system, agents that treat abnormal heart rhythms, agents that treat muscle spasms, agents that treat stomach and intestine disorders, agents that widen blood vessels, antibiotics, anticancer agents, antidepressants (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, SSRIs), birth control, bleomycin, calcium channel blockers, disulfiram (Antabuse®), hormonal agents, laxatives, lung agents, metronidazole (Flagyl®), nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agents (NSAIDs), and pain relievers.
Dong quai may increase the risk of bleeding when taken with herbs and supplements that are believed to increase the risk of bleeding. Multiple cases of bleeding have been reported with the use of Ginkgo biloba, and fewer cases with garlic and saw palmetto. Numerous other agents may theoretically increase the risk of bleeding, although this has not been proven in most cases.
Caution is advised when using herbs or supplements that may lower blood sugar. Blood glucose levels may require monitoring, and doses may need adjustment.
Dong quai may increase the amount of drowsiness caused by some herbs or supplements.
Dong quai may affect blood pressure. Caution is advised in people taking herbs or supplements that lower blood pressure.
Dong quai may interact with antibacterial herbs and supplements, anticancer herbs and supplements, antidepressant herbs and supplements (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, SSRIs), antioxidants, birth control, herbs and supplements that affect or treat disorders of the central nervous system, herbs and supplements that increase sun sensitivity, herbs and supplements that prevent muscle spasms, herbs and supplements that treat abnormal heart rhythms, herbs and supplements that treat stomach and intestine disorders, hormonal herbs and supplements, laxatives, pain relievers, St. John's wort, and vitamin E.

I was due for this, and what better a time than a supersports weekend?
First task was to make the little baseballs... I mean meatballs. Mix the ground beef with all the goodies like bread crumbs, Italian seasonings, parsley, crushed red pepper, etc. They handle real nicely when you get the bat... I mean the skewers on them. And it's off to the pit to cook them indirect.
Now they're ready to finish topping my pizza. Once again, I made a 100% whole wheat dough, with homemade sauce, and Moozarella. Used my GraniteWare pizza pan to hold it. Switched over to a direct heat, but I made sure to get my hickory smoking first to enjoy that woodfired flavor.
It does not take long at all to cook with the GraniteWare. In fact, I done overdid this one a tad-- call it a "Pumpernickel" crust if you like , but you know what?-- It didn't matter! To my surprise, it was still quite the treat, and I had no regrets. I guess it's kind of like some people like a light toast, while others like a really dark toast.
Here is a closer look. Oh yeah, I got a few bell pepper strips on there too. Mmmm...meatballs on a deep crust!

Tumer, N., Scarpace, P.J., Dogan, M.D., Broxson, C.S., Matheny, M., Yurek, D.M., Peden, C.S., Burger, C., Muzyczka, N. and Mandel, R.J.
Notes: To examine the effect of GDNF expression on body weight, recombinant adeno-associated virus (rAAV) expressing GDNF was injected intrahypothalamically into young and senescent rats. Hypothalamuses were harvested, lysed and used undiluted, and at dilutions of 1:50 and 1:500 in the GDNF Emax® ImmunoAssay System. The amount of GDNF was expressed as a concentration of GDNF protein per milligram of hypothalamic tissue sample. (3342)

GDNF Emax® ImmunoAssay System
Villadiego, J., Mendez-Ferrer, S., Valdes-Sanchez, T., Silos-Santiago, I., Farinas, I., Lopez-Barneo, J., and Toledo-Aral, J.J.
Notes: In this study, the GDNF Emax® ImmunoAssay System was used to determine the GDNF content of various tissues used to treat Parkinson disease in animals and humans. Tissues tested included rodent carotid body, superior cervical ganglia, adrenal medulla and Zuckerkandl's organs. Tissues were frozen in liquid nitrogen, then homogenized. The ELISA was then performed according to the supplied protocol, with the following exceptions: the anti-GDNF mAb was used at a 1:500 dilution, and the anti-GDNF pAb was used at a 1:250 dilution. GDNF secreted from dissociated cells of the various tissue types was also evaluated in an in situ ELISA, where dissociated cells were cultured for 48 hours in plates coated with anti-GDNF mAb. The cells were then removed by washing and the amount of released GDNF evaluated by ELISA. (3475)
Peden, C.S., Burger, C., Muzyczka, N. and Mandel, R.J.
Notes: The GDNF Emax® ImmunoAssay System was used to measure GDNF levels in adenovirus-infected rats. The researchers describe analyzing GDNF levels in brain lysates from naïve, immunized and nonimmunized rats. Naïve animals displayed GDNF expression after infection with an adenovirus vector that expressed GDNF (rAAV2-GDNF). Data aredisplayed graphically as picograms of GDNF per milligram of brain tissue. (3254)
Maswood, N., Young, J., Tilmont, E., Zhang, Z., Gash, D.M., Gerhardt, G.A., Grondin, R., Roth, G.S., Mattison, J., Lane, M.A., Carson, R.E., Cohen, R.M., Mouton, P.R., Quigley, C., Mattson, M.P. and Ingram, D.K.
Notes: Adult male rhesus monkeys were divided into two groups to model the effect of calorie-restriction on the progress of Parkinson's disease. Caudate nucleus samples from both sides of the brain were taken 16–18 weeks after inducing hemiparkinsonism. Levels of neurotrophins were measured using the BDNF and GDNF Emax® ImmunoAssay Systems. The amount of BDNF and GDNF were compared to the total protein present in each sample and expressed as picogram per milligram units. (3335)
BDNF Emax® ImmunoAssay System
Wang, L., Lu, Y., Muramatsu, S., Ikeguchi, K., Fujimoto, K., Okada, T., Mizukami, H., Matsushita, T., Hanazono, Y., Kume, A., Nagatsu, T., Ozawa, K. and Nakano, I.
Notes: Male mice were bilaterally injected with neural tracer cholera toxin subunit B into gastrocnemius muscles to selectively label motoneurons that retained axons. One week later, tissue was harvested and homogenized and theGDNF Emax® ImmunoAssay System was used on acidified supernatants to measure GDNF levels. (2802)
Woodhall E., West A.K., and Chuah M.I..
Notes: Transplantation of olfactory ensheathing cells into lesions in the central nervous system is able to stimulate the growth of axons and in some cases restore functional connections. To investigate the mechanism, the authors quantitated the production of growth factors and expression of corresponding receptors by rat olfactory ensheathing cells. Levels of brain-derived neurotrophic factor, glial-cell-derived neurotrophic factor, nerve growth factor, and neurotrophin-3 were monitored using Promega's BDNF Emax® ImmunoAssay System, GDNF Emax® ImmunoAssay System, NGF Emax® ImmunoAssay System, and NT-3 Emax® ImmunoAssay System, respectively. (2318)
Yurek, D.M., and Fletcher-Turner, A.
Notes: Brain-derived neurotrophic factor, glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor, and neurotrophin-3 protein levels were quantitated in the striatum and ventral midbrain of young and aged rats following a lesion of the nigrostriatal system. BDNF, GDNF, and neurotrophin-3 levels were monitored using Promega's BDNF Emax® ImmunoAssay System, GDNF Emax® ImmunoAssay System and NT-3 Emax® ImmunoAssay System, respectively. (2324)
Weis, C., Marksteiner, J. and Humpel, C.
Notes: In Alzheimer's disease, cholinergic neurons are lost from the medial septum and nucleus basalis of Meynert. Nerve growth factor and glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor were examined to determine if these growth factors can rescue the cholinergic neurons. GDNF and NGF levels in the sections of the basal nucleus of Meynert in rat was determined using Promega's GDNF Emax® ImmunoAssay System and NGF Emax® ImmunoAssay System, respectively. Glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor was capable of partially restoring the number of cholinergic neurons. (2325)
Hottinger, A.F., Azzouz, M., Deglon, N., Aebischer, P., and Zurn A.D.
Notes: To determine the protective effects of glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor on axotomized facial motoneurons, GDNF was continuously expressed within the rat facial nucleus and these rats were subjected to facial nerve lesion. Axotomized motoneurons were completely protected against cell death. Levels of GDNF in the brainstem were determined using Promega's GDNF Emax® ImmunoAssays System. (2326)
Cisterni, C., Henderson, C.E., Aebischer, P., Pettmann, B., and Deglon N.
Notes: Purified embryonic rat motoneurons were >95% transduced with HIV1-based lentiviral vectors encoding beta-galactosidase and human glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor. GDNF levels in conditioned cell culture medium were determined using Promega's GDNF Emax® ImmunoAssay System. (2328)
Baloh, R.H., Tansey, M.G., Johnson, E.M.Jr. and Milbrandt, J.
Notes: Wildtype and mutant rat GDNF was expressed in African green monkey kidney cells (COS cells) and purified from the cell media. Quantities of the wildtype and mutant factors before and after purification were determined using the GDNF Emax® ImmunoAssay System. (1456)
Saland, L.C., Cunningham, L.A., Su, C., Morales, M., and Gaddy, J.
Notes: The Anti-Human GDNF pAb was used to detect GDNF in rat pituitaries by immunohistochemistry. To stain for GDNF alone, the rats were perfused with cold 4% paraformaldehyde, paraffin embedded, then sliced into 8µm sections. The sections were permeabilized with a brief trypsin treatment. The sections were blocked with normal donkey serum and incubated with the Anti-Human GDNF pAb (1:250 dilution) either overnight at ambient room temperature or for 48 hours at 4°C followed by colorimetric detection. For co-localization with other marker antibodies, the pituitaries were flash frozen and 10µm sections obtained. The frozen sections were fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde and permeablized with 0.3% Triton® X-100 in 5% normal goat serum. The sections were treated for 48 hours at 4°C in the presence of the Anti-Human GDNF pAb (1:250 dilution) in the goat serum/0.3% Triton® X-100 solution with accompanying antibodies. Actual levels of GDNF in the pituitaries were determined with the GDNF Emax® ImmunoAssay System. (0053)
Anti-Human GDNF pAb
Kirik, D., Rosenblad, C., Bjorklund, A., and Mandel R.J.
Notes: An adeno-associated viral vector was used for long-term expression of GDNF in either the nigral DA neurons, in the striatal target cells, or in both of these structures. Only rats expressing GDNF in the striatum displayed behavioral recovery, and significant reinnervation of the lesioned striatum. GDNF expression was monitored using Promega's GDNF Emax® ImmunoAssay System. (2329)
Kordower, J.H., Emborg, M.E., Bloch, J., Ma, S.Y., Chu, Y., Leventhal, L., McBride, J., Chen, E.Y., Palfi, S., Roitberg, B.Z., Brown, W.D., Holden, J.E., Pyzalski, R., Taylor, M.D., Carvey, P., Ling, Z., Trono, D., Hantraye, P., Deglon, N., and Aebischer, P.
Notes: A lentiviral vector was used to express glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor in nonhuman primate models of Parkinson's disease. GDNF expression in the substantia nigra seemed to reverse functional deficits and prevent nigrostriatal degeneration. GDNF expression in transduced and non-transduced cells of the rhesus monkey substantia nigra was quantitated using Promega's GDNF Emax® ImmunoAssay System. (2330)
Eberhardt, O., Coelln, R.V., Kugler, S., Lindenau, J., Rathke-Hartlieb, S., Gerhardt, E., Haid, S., Isenmann, S., Gravel, C., Srinivasan, A., Bahr, M., Weller, M., Dichgans, J., and Schulz J.B.
Notes: In a Parkinson's disease model, the combination of adenoviral gene transfer of X-chromosome-linked inhibitor of apoptosis and of the glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor to the rat striatum showed promise in preventing neuronal cell death and preserving neuronal function. GDNF levels in the striatum and in the human neuroblastoma cell line SH-Sy5Y were quantitated using Promega'sGDNF Emax® ImmunoAssay System. (2327)
Deglon, N., Tseng, J.L., Bensadoun, J.C., Zurn, A.D., Arsenijevic, Y., Pereira de Almeida, L., Zufferey, R.,
Notes: The GDNF Emax® ImmunoAssay System (GDNF ELISA) was used to determine the amount of GDNF secreted by 293T cells infected with a GDNF-encoding lentivirus. The Self-inactivating (SIN) lentiviral vector produced approximately 900ng of GDNF per day and the first generation lentiviral vector produced only about 150ng of GDNF per day. The SIN virus was injected into rat substantia nigra and punches of the mesencephalon including the substantia nigra were collected and analyzed for GDNF levels. The SIN virus produced about 2.5ng of GDNF per punch one week after injection and control animal given a SIN-lacZ construct had undetectable levels of GDNF. (1268)
Ikeda, T., Xia, X.Y., Xia, Y.X., Ikenoue, T., Choi, B.H.
Notes: The GDNF Emax® ImmunoAssay System (GDNF ELISA) was used to investigate GDNF levels in rat cerebralspinal fluid after birth out to three weeks. The CSF levels of GDNF ranged from 71pg/ml to a high of 138pg/ml. The researchers used only samples with no contaminating blood. (0992)
Verity, A.N., Wyatt, T.L., Hajos, B., Eglen, R.M., Baecker, P.A., Johnson, R.M.
Notes: The study makes extensive use of the GDNF Emax® ImmunoAssay System to monitor the level of GDNF secreted into the media of rat C6 glioblastoma cells. The researchers validated that the system was good for GDNF levels between 10pg/ml and 500pg/ml. C6 cells without external stimuli secreted GDNF at an average of 36 ± 5.6 pg/ml (n = 66) and ranged from undetectable levels to 150pg/ml. The NO generator sodium nitroprusside increased GDNF secretion at least 5-fold. (GDNF ELISA) (0222)
Okragly, A.J. and Haak-Frendscho, M.
Notes: The levels of GDNF, NGF, and NT-3 were quantitated in various mouse tissues, including spleen, muscle, heart, lung, liver, kidney, bladder, gastrointestinal tract, brain, and serum. Additional samples screened for NGF included pig, goat, horse, chicken, rabbit, sheep, and bovine serum and rat brain. Samples were untreated or acid treated by acidification to pH <3.0 followed by neutralization to pH 7.6. In all tissue samples and most serum samples, the detectable levels of GDNF, NGF and NT-3 increased up to 35-fold. It is thought that the acidification process promotes dissociation of receptors and associated proteins making the neurotrophins more accessible. Levels of GDNF, NGF, and NT-3 were determined using the GDNF, NGF, and NT-3 Emax ImmunoAssay Systems, respectively. Please note that the coat antibody in the NGF Emax ImmunoAssay System was changed 12/2002 and may affect cross-reactivity. (3105)
Tseng, J.L., Baetge, E.E., Zurn, A.D., Aebischer, P.
Notes: BHK cells stably expressing rat GDNF were encapsulated in a polymer for implantation into the medial forebrain bundle and substantia nigra. The GDNF Emax® ImmunoAssay System (GDNF ELISA) was used to determine the release rate of the encapsulated cells. A cell capsule was placed in 500µl of culture medium for 60 minutes and the supernatant assayed for GDNF. The capsule was found to release ~5ng GDNF/day. (0238)
Bilang-Bleuel, A., Revah, F, Colin, P, Locquet, I, Robert, J.J., Mallet, J. and Horellou, P.
Notes: The GDNF Emax® ImmunoAssay System was used to measure GDNF levels in culture. GDNF was assayed from rat mesencephalic cells and astrocytes both pre- and post-infection with a recombinant adenovirus that produced GDNF. The same assay was also performed with HeLa cells. (1451)
Baumgartner, B.J. and Shine, H.D.
Notes: The GDNF Emax ImmunoAssay System was used to quantify the level of GDNF in the conditioned media of HeLa cells transduced with a recombinant adenovirus expressing GDNF. The RQ1 DNase was used to treat RNA sample to remove genomic DNA and the AMV reverse transcriptase was used for first strand cDNA synthesis. (1605)

Last year I wrote about the magazine "Discovering Your Ancestors" which was put out by Ancestry.co.uk and I wondered if there was going to be any more issues. Thanks to Chris Paton of the British Genes blog I now know that "Discovering Your Ancestors" isn't a magazine, but a bookazine !! And that a 2nd edition is due out next month to coincide with the "Who Do you Think You Are Live! Show in London. It seems that this is going to be a yearly event and issuing it in time for the big WDYTYA show makes a lot of commercial sense.
Thanks Chris for keeping us informed of this as I shall certainly be buying a copy. Last year saw the demise of one genealogy magazine and gossip says that a few others are struggling so it makes sense to create a bookazine which must be cheaper to produce than a book, can be sold at a more affordable price whilst having some good quality content.
Below is the link to the press release from the publishers. I shall be buying a digital copy as soon as it is published and if it is as good as the first issue it will be well worth the £5.99.

Foreign Minister Bob Carr says Australia will make ''serious representations'' to Indonesia about regulating its drinks market in tourist areas, after an Australian teenager died after drinking a methanol-laced cocktail on Lombok.
West Australian Liam Davies, 19, died on Sunday after being poisoned during New Year's celebrations at a bar on the island.
On holiday with friends, Mr Davies fell ill on New Year's Day and was flown back to Perth on Thursday, before dying in hospital.
A number of cases of methanol poisoning have previously led to Australian health authorities warning of potential poisoning from drinking the local ''arak'' brew.
An 18-year-old Australian school leaver was blinded in Bali last month and in September 2011, Perth-based rugby player Michael Denton died after consuming arak - which is distilled from rice or palm sap and described as a colourless, sugarless beverage with a 20 to 50 per cent alcohol content.
Also in 2011, Newcastle nurse Jamie Johnston suffered brain damage and renal failure after drinking a methanol-laced cocktail in Indonesia.
On Monday, Senator Carr said that Australia's Consul-General in Bali, Brett Farmer, would make representations to the Indonesian authorities as soon as possible.
Senator Carr told reporters in Sydney that the representations would focus on whether ''more careful policing'' and ''better regulation'' - especially of the lower end of the market - ''might be a useful thing to do''.
''We can't enforce Australian alcohol standards overseas, but we can make representations to see that young travellers are better protected from this danger,'' Senator Carr said.
''We'll find ways of working with our good friends the Indonesians to reduce the risk of adulterated drinks.''
A staff member at the Indonesian Embassy in Canberra said that methanol poisoning was not a widespread problem but it did happen ''from time to time".
The staff member said that there had already been some success in regulating the food and drink market for both tourists and Indonesians, adding it did not take the death of an Australian, or a call from a foreign minister, for Indonesian officials to take action.
Noting that Senator Carr and Indonesian Foreign Minister Marty Natalegawa were on a first name basis, the staff member said they would not be surprised if there was "quick progress" on the issue.

It's fitting that Elisabeth Bernabe has proven to be a highly skilled golfer.
Although it's not the most physically demanding sport, the mental aspect of golf is what makes it one of the most challenging games to master. And when it comes to strength of the mind, you'll find few athletes who are as in-tune mentally as Bernabe.
A senior at Canyon High, Bernabe is a 5.0 student (yes, you read that correctly). And in between the studies, Bernabe has shown ability on the links.
Selected to the All-County team, Bernabe won the Individual Century League title after shooting a record round of 62 at the El Prado Golf Club. She advanced through the CIF Individual Playoffs and finished tied for fourth place in the California State Championships with teammate Jessica Vasilic in November. She also qualified and played in the 2012 LPGA U.S. Open at Blackwolf Run Golf Course in Kohler, Wis.
Bernabe has signed a national letter of intent to attend and play golf at Yale. She still has one tough decision in front of her: major in economics or become a pre-med student?
Q. So how exactly did you earn a 5.0 GPA?
A. Since my freshman year, I've pretty much taken all honors, AP and International Baccalaureate courses. This year's been the hardest. Golf really is my only easy class. My schedule's been a lot harder than all my other years. I'm taking (IB) History of the Americas, AP Government and Economics, AP Calculus, (IB) Theory of Knowledge and (IB) Physics.
Q. Who were some of the other schools that recruited you?
A. It was mainly Ivy League schools. I was looking at Penn a little bit. Harvard, Princeton; UCLA offered me a full scholarship. I was also considering USC. My mom went there and so did a lot of my family.
Q. What was it about Yale that appealed to you the most?
A. I went there, like, three or four years ago just to walk around campus. It looked so pretty, like it came right out of a movie. The architecture was beautiful. It kind of looked like Hogwarts from Harry Potter. I loved it. It was just different from any of the colleges I have seen out here.
Q. How would you say golf is different than other sports?
A. It's an individual sport, so the spotlight is always on you. If you make a mistake, it's your fault. You can't blame it on anyone else. You have to have a strong mental capability. Standing on the first tee, you just try to take a deep breath and pretend that no one is looking at you. But being an individual sport is not a bad thing. When you win, you get a certain type of gratification, which I like.
Q. You made the state finals with your teammate Jessica Vasilic. What was that like to have such a good year alongside one of your teammates?
A. I thought it was great. We both tied for fourth place at state. So we started it together and ended it together. Being our last season, it was the last time just to go all the way to state. I've known Jessica since I was 8. We played junior golf together. She pushes me, and I push her. We just know each other's capabilities.

Glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitors might be used with angioplasty after a heart attack. But they are not used for everyone.
Glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitors may help certain people who have angioplasty after a heart attack, such as people who are at high risk for serious blood clots.1
Glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitors are given in the hospital. So a person is watched closely for any side effects.
Bleeding inside the body is the most common side effect.

By Hand [1568986106] - $34.95 : Chronicle Books
Craft Day! I was walking down that little alleyway--you know, if you walk from the Metreon to Market Street, between Third and Fourth street, and manage to resist Beard Papa's? I guess the cross-street is Mission, but it's more toward Market than that. There's a little bitty museum there, and they had this in the window. Certainly justified, as it was the Museum of Craft and Folk Art, and this book is full of artists getting their craft on. I'm a creative person and I like making gifts for people; but I am so not a fan of decorated Kleenex cozies. The ideas in here were much, much better.

JiaYu G3 جڑ کا طریقہ + وصولی موڈ کام
The JY G3 یا JiaYu G3 rooting پہلے ہی کچھ دنوں کے لئے سرکاری JiaYu فورم پر پوسٹ کیا گیا پہلے ہی.
چینی زبان میں اصل معلومات کے وزٹرز کا ریکارڈ رکھا جائے گا کیا گیا تھا, لیکن اس کی ایک اچھی بات یہ ہے کہ ہم اس کا ترجمہ کرنے کے قابل ہیں. میں یہاں اقدامات دوبارہ لکھ رہا ہوں حتی کہ بہت سارے صارفین یہ آسانی سے سمجھ سکتے ہیں.
مختصر, the method is just simple. You just have to flash the working recovery for this JiaYu G3 (which is on Chinese) and then install the ROOT update via recovery.
Disclaimer: I wont be liable for any damage this procedure will cause on your device. This includes re-flashing the JiaYu G3 so do it at your own risk.
Steps on how to root JiaYu G3
- First, you must have the proper Android drivers installed on your computer. It wont just install by itself if you just plug the device on your PC. For this, I am recommending the use of pdaNet (just google it) so that you'll easily get the drivers installed. Just be sure to "enable USB debugging" on the "Developer options" of the JY-G3, plug in your device on the PC then install the pdaNet.exe, choosing "Others" when prompted for device model.
- Then download this package. It has all the stuff we need. Extract it on your PC so you can easily use the files inside.
- Next step is, remove your phone's battery and back cover. Prepare the USB data cable but dont connect the phone yet.
How to flash Recovery
- Run the Smart Phone Flash Tool application. Click on the "Scatter loading" button and then browse/select the MT6577_Android_scatter_emmc.txt file that you can find on the extracted package that you had downloaded.
- Then there will be a file list, be sure to just put a check on the RECOVERY and make sure that the path to the recovery.img is correct.
- Click the "Download" button and then confirm.
- اب, connect the phone.
- Attach the battery.
- The Flash Tool will now start doing the flashing process, just wait till you get a "success" notice or green circle. After that, your phone will restart.
- You just had successfully installed recovery on your JiaYu G3.
Here's an image guide which is pretty much straight forward:
How to enter the recovery mode in JiaYu G3
With recovery mode enabled on your JY-G3, just like any Android device you can now install updates/mods easily on your device. Most of these usually need to be installed via recovery mode.
- Turn off the JY-G3.
- Hold down power button + volume up.
JiaYu G3 جڑ کا طریقہ (via recovery)
- Copy the file JYG3-ROOT.zip on the root of your SD card.
- Then enter into recovery mode.
- It is Chinese, but select the option: "从SD卡上安装刷机包". It means, install from SD.
- Then browse for the JYG3-ROOT.zip file on your SD card's root.
- Select "是–刷入JYG3-ROOT.zip". It means "flash JYG3-ROOT.zip".
- Your phone will do its work now and will return to recovery mode's home.
- Restart your JY-G3.
Enjoy your rooted JiaYu G3! Here's some proof that the new JiaYu G3 can be rooted with the mentioned method.
Can't determine the original poster of this tutorial on JiaYu forums, but full credits goes to him.
I do not have my JiaYu G3 ابھی تک, but this is awesome to know that there is already a working recovery and rooting procedure on this phone. Too bad that some units on the first batch of JiaYu G3 was released with screen problems, thus adding further delays on the coming of the next batch for us.

Procedural Change for Renewing Concealed Handgun Permit
Issued 04/04/14 by Andy Josey, Professional Standards Lieutenant
Please note the following changes have been made to the renewal process for concealed handgun permits:
Governor Hickenlooper signed House Bill 14-1166 on March 14, 2014, requiring an immediate change in the procedure for Concealed Handgun Permit renewals.
What this means for you is that if you move out of the county that issued your permit, you no longer need to return to that county to renew it. You must renew your permit with the Sheriff in the county that you currently reside, have a second home, or where you rent/lease property for your business. We are providing the statutory language below for you to determine your eligibility when you seek permit renewal; please review all relevant statutes related to renewals for the steps you are required to take to renew your permit:
SECTION 3.In Colorado Revised Statutes, 18-12-211, amend(1) as follows:
18-12-211. Renewal of permits.(1) (a) Within one hundred twenty days prior to expiration of a permit, the permittee may obtain a renewal form from the sheriff OF THE COUNTY OR CITY AND COUNTY IN WHICH THE PERMITTEE RESIDES OR FROM THE SHERIFF OF THE COUNTY OR CITY AND COUNTY IN WHICH THE PERMITTEE MAINTAINS A SECONDARY RESIDENCE OR OWNS OR LEASES REAL PROPERTY USED BY THE PERMITTEE IN A BUSINESS and renew the permit by submitting to the sheriff a completed renewal form, a notarized affidavit stating that the permittee remains qualified pursuant to the criteria specified in section 18-12-203 (1) (a) to (1) (g), and the required renewal fee not to exceed fifty dollars, as set by the sheriff pursuant to section 18-12-205 (5). The renewal form MUST meet the requirements specified in section 18-12-205 (1) for an application.

}}Jean-Étienne Dominique Esquirol (1772–1840) was a French psychiatrist.
Born and raised in Toulouse, Esquirol completed his education at Montpellier. He came to Paris in 1799 where he worked at the Salpêtrière Hospital and became a favorite student of Philippe Pinel.
To enable Esquirol to take up the intensive study of insanity in an appropriate setting, Pinel reportedly put up the security for the house and garden on Rue de Buffon where Esquirol established a maison de santé or private asylum in 1801 or 1802. Esquirol's maison was quite successful, being ranked, in 1810, as one of the three best such institutions in Paris.
In 1805 he published his thesis The passions considered as causes, symptoms and means of cure in cases of insanity. Esquirol, like Pinel, believed that the origin of mental illness could be found in the passions of the soul and was convinced that madness does not fully and irremediably affect a patient's reason.
Esquirol was made médecin ordinaire at the Salpêtrière in 1811, following the death of Jean-Baptiste Pussin, Pinel's trusted concierge. Pinel chose Esquirol because he was "a physician… devoted exclusively to the study of insanity,"Template:Cite quote arguing that with his many years of maison de santé experience he was the only man suited for the job.
Esquirol saw the question of madness as institutional and national. This was especially true for the poor where he saw the state, with the help of doctors, playing an important role. He also saw an important role for doctors in caring for people accused of crimes who were declared not responsible by reason of insanity. In public controversies over this question he promoted the usefulness of the diagnosis of monomania. By taking such an active role in these public matters, his fame eclipsed that of his teacher Pinel.
In 1817, under the [restored Bourbon monarchy, Esquirol initiated a course in maladies mentales in the makeshift quarters of the Salpêtrière dining hall. This was perhaps the first formal teaching of psychiatry in France. At this time he was neither a professor at the Paris faculty or the chief physician at a Paris hospital, but merely a médecin ordinaire. Nonetheless he was reported to have been one of the clinical instructors to whose hospital visits "students flock with a kind of frenzy".Template:Cite quote He had many very distinguished students.
In 1810, 1814 and 1817 Esquirol, at his own expense, had toured facilities for lunatics throughout France. In 1818 following these trips he wrote a short memoir presented to the minister of the interior and a more detailed description of his findings published in the Dictionnaire des sciences médicales. These articles described, in precise and frightening terms, the conditions in which the insane lived throughout France. They demonstrate that the reforms undertaken in Paris had not penetrated the provinces. Together these two articles constituted a program of reform directed both at the government and the medical profession.
This program consisted of four points:
- First, that insanity should be treated in special hospitals by physicians with special training.
- Second, that reform involved exporting the advances made in Paris to the provinces.
- Third, that "a lunatic hospital is an instrument of cure". By this he meant that the physical structure of new psychiatric hospitals must be designed to support the practice of the new specialty.
- Fourth, Esquirol insisted on the definitive medicalization of the care of the insane. "The physician must be the vital principal of a lunatic hospital. It is he who should set everything in motion… The physician should be invested with an authority from which no one is exempt."Template:Cite quote
At the behest of the minister of internal affairs, Esquirol next undertook a nationwide survey, visiting all the institutions throughout France where mental patients were confined. In 1822 he was appointed inspector general of medical faculties, and in 1825 director of Charenton Hospice. He became the main architect of the national law of 1838 that instituted departmental asylums for all needy French mental patients and that is still in force today. In 1834, he was elected a foreign member of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences.

Will and Jada Pinkett Smith stopped by an office building in NYC yesterday. Will has been in the Big Apple for the past few months while he films Men in Black 3, though he and Jada took a trip out west to celebrate Will's son Trey's high school graduation last Friday. Jada, who took off her Tom Ford sunglasses to smile for the cameras during the duo's outing, has been busy working on the third season of her TV series Hawthorne. Jada both stars in and executive produces the hospital drama, and she is also recruiting some close family friends to costar alongside her on the show. Nurse Christina Hawthorne's new love interest is Marc Anthony, and in a recent interview, Jada joked that Will might get payback by asking Jennifer Lopez to be his leading lady in his next movie!

CRITICALLY acclaimed US fantasy drama Game of Thrones has topped the chart for illegal downloads, confirming it is the most popular television show watched by people who are not watching TV.
More than 4.2 million around the world downloaded the series - the chart is calculated by ranking the most downloaded single episodes of shows - roughly matching its US television audience.
The series draws a weekly audience of about 3.8 million. Its second season finale, which aired in the US in June, attracted about 4.2 million viewers.
The list, compiled by the website TorrentFreak from sources including reports from public BitTorrent trackers, represents an eclectic mix of shows.
On the list are popular shows fuelled by critical mass (Big Bang Theory, How I Met Your Mother), blue-chip cable dramas not always available outside the US (Breaking Bad, The Walking Dead) and cult shows that appeal to the geek demographic (Fringe, Revolution).
Illegal downloading through BitTorrent networks has been in slight decline for some time, though reports suggest there was a slight rise this year. In part that would be fuelled by faster internet services worldwide and a migration away from traditional television - some people now watch TV shows exclusively through the internet.
In the US, where the phenomenon has sparked discussion, such viewers are referred to as ''cord cutters'' or ''cable cutters'' because they have effectively cut their cable cords. (Many homes in the US get terrestrial television as well as pay TV by cable.)
Most TV show piracy, estimated at about 80 per cent, occurs outside the US, including Australia.
But the numbers for Game of Thrones would be bolstered by larger-than-usual illegal downloading in the US. The series is not offered free by HBO as an online playback, and HBO's digital HBO GO is offered only in a bundle with the channel subscription.
As a result, many US fans of the series have turned to the internet and illegal downloading.
Piracy has a much smaller impact on more mainstream US shows, such as Modern Family, NCIS and CSI, because most US networks offer their shows free through their websites to US viewers.
By contrast there is no collective measurement for legal downloading as most broadcasters, in Australia and the US, put shows on their websites but do not publish comprehensive viewing data.
A list published in June by the US iTunes store of the most popular legally downloaded TV programs included Dexter, Breaking Bad and The Walking Dead.
But other, more mainstream, shows such as Doctor Who, Modern Family, True Blood, Top Gear and Glee, were also prominently positioned.
The Australian iTunes store ranks Gossip Girl, Homeland, The Vampire Diaries, Grey's Anatomy, Once Upon a Time, Hart of Dixie, Modern Family and Hunted among its most popular single TV episodes.
The top-ranked season pass in the Australian iTunes store is for the Doctor Who Christmas special, The Snowmen, which is not available until Boxing Day,
Its position at the top of the iTunes leader board would suggest sales of the special, priced at $4.99 in Australia, have been strong.
Doctor Who is also one of the most popular shows on the ABC's iView platform, an online and app-based TV service. It is the market leader for online TV playback in Australia largely because of its easy-to-use interface and a lack of commercials.

Doc is on a mission to help rid your organization of every last trace of document management ignorance and make sure that the future of the digital office finds a home in your business.

ZDNet introduces Doc (The DocuMentor), sponsored by RICOH. Through his blog, Doc will educate you about Document Management. So who is Doc? Doc is something of an enigma. He was born to a Russian ballerina and a German electrical engineer who some believe was running covert operations for shadowy corporate interests. Doc grew up in various locations in the United States, although no one seems to know precisely where, least of all Doc. His early schooling was unremarkable except for the time he was caught trying to replace all the mimeograph machines with high-tech color copiers that had mysteriously disappeared from a shipment to Albania. At MIT, he made a name for himself by transforming a large printer into a robot that hunts and eats Roombas.
Professionally, he reportedly has seen the insides of more brands, versions, and generations of printer and printer-related hardware than almost anyone. Some say his obsession with paper, printing, and mechanical movement was either started by, or evidenced by, a traumatic childhood episode when he crawled inside an old Xerox 2400 and tried to print himself.

Anyway, Doc has hands on experience with stuff like printer maintenance and fleet management, but his mastery of document management leaves no stone unturned. Important issues like sustainability, security, and regulatory compliance are top of mind for Doc, as are other business technology needs like networking and IT services, making him a true blue IT renaissance man.

National Keep Kids Creative Week
September 21st – 27th is "National Keep Kids Creative Week". The holiday was dreamed up by illustrator and author Bruce Van Patter to restore children's innate ability to "think outside the box."
Bruce became worried about the growing number of children "vegging out" in front of the "rot box" (television) and decided to put together a list of resources and essays that teachers and parents can use to help promote and maintain creative thinking.
Is it just a coincidence that the Adobe CS4 Creative release coincided with National Keep Kids Creative Week? You decide…

53Then each of them went home,
81while Jesus went to the Mount of Olives.
2Early in the morning he came again to the temple. All the people came to him and he sat down and began to teach them.
3The scribes and the Pharisees brought a woman who had been caught in adultery; and making her stand before all of them,
4they said to him, Teacher, this woman was caught in the very act of committing adultery.
5Now in the law Moses commanded us to stone such women. Now what do you say?
6They said this to test him, so that they might have some charge to bring against him. Jesus bent down and wrote with his finger on the ground.
7When they kept on questioning him, he straightened up and said to them, Let anyone among you who is without sin be the first to throw a stone at her.
8And once again he bent down and wrote on the ground.*
9When they heard it, they went away, one by one, beginning with the elders; and Jesus was left alone with the woman standing before him.
10Jesus straightened up and said to her, Woman, where are they? Has no one condemned you?
11She said, No one, sir.* And Jesus said, Neither do I condemn you. Go your way, and from now on do not sin again.]]*

Early Earth ready for life, according to articles in ScienceNOW, 6 May 2005 and New Scientist, 14 May 2005, p41. According to current theories the earth is believed to have formed as a hot molten blob under constant bombardment by meteorites. The surface of the early earth is believed to have been so hot and harsh that the period from 4.6 to 3.8 billion years ago is called the Hadean period, as in "Hades" - literally "Hell on Earth." Such hellish conditions would not have allowed any liquid water or atmosphere to exist so life could not have arisen until it cooled down considerably.
However, zircons from rocks in the Jack Hills in Western Australian, believed to be some of the oldest rocks on earth, provide evidence that the early earth wasn't such a hostile place. In 1999 scientists from Wisconsin State University and University of California, Los Angeles found that the zircons had relatively high proportions of oxygen 18 and contained inclusions of mica, quartz and feldspar - all of which indicate the zircons were formed from water soaked sedimentary rocks. If they were, the early earth must have had a crust, oceans and an atmosphere. This view of the early earth has been confirmed by a new study of the zircons by geochemists Bruce Watson of the Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, New York and Mark Harrison of the Australian National University, who studied titanium atoms in the zircons.
The researchers found levels of titanium in the zircons that could only have occur if they were formed in "water saturated sediments packed and heated until they formed rock." Altogether, these results indicate that "far from being a 'magma ocean' with no atmosphere, the earth 4.4 billion years ago was solid, cool and wet. And if there was liquid water then there had to be a thick atmosphere: otherwise the water would have boiled off. Hell on Earth was suddenly looking rather balmy." The New Scientist article concludes with: "And that has important implications for another highly charged scientific debate; when did life begin? ... We'll never know for sure. But thanks to the ancient zircons of the Jack Hills, we now know that, close to the dawn of creation, the planet was ready for life."
Editorial Comment: The most significant finding in these studies is that they indicate the early earth was covered with water - just as Genesis and the Apostle Peter clearly state (See Genesis 1:2 and 2 Peter 3:5). Genesis and Peter tell us the world has been completely covered by water twice: at creation and during Noah's flood. After both of these there was massive uplift of land from the water and much sediment would have been washed off the newly forming land masses, giving rise to plenty of "water saturated sediments" (see Psalm 104).
Some readers of our newsletter may have noticed we recently reported claims that that the early earth's oceans were too hot and salty for life - the opposite of this week's claim. This provides a useful lesson: the stories presented by scientists about the formation of the earth and the origin of life are not established facts, but 'hotly' debated theories that keep changing while Genesis stays the same.

A children's shoe shop has been shortlisted for an industry awards as one of the top independent footwear retailers.
Poppy Red, on South Hawksworth Street, Ilkley, is one of only five businesses on the shortlist in the Independent Footwear Retailer of the Year in the Draper Footwear and Accessories Awards.
This sees the shop competing against retailers of all types of footwear, not only children's shoes.
Staff now have to wait until May 1 to find out if they have won the award - due to be announced in a ceremony at the Park Lane Hilton Hotel, London.
The business was taken over by Helen Rhodes and her daughter, Jenny, almost three years ago.
Turnover at the shop has seen a dramatic increase year on year since taking over and it now also does a lot of business online.
The shop also employs two permanent part-time staff, two casual staff who are Ilkley Grammar School students, and has recently taken on a full-time apprentice.

Bumble and bumble Sunday Shampoo
Lots of my recommendations seem to mention smell, and this one will too -- I love the freshness of this shampoo. There are probably cheaper product-cleansing shampoos out there, but it doesn't matter. I love this stuff. While I don't always use it on Sundays, I do use it at least once a week as my curly, frizzy mop needs so much product to keep it tame that I need to clean the gunk out fairly regularly. The Boyfriend also uses this when he stays over. It's blue, so he doesn't mind using it as much.

Four years ago this month, as a staffer for Senate Democratic Leader Harry Reid, I sat at the back of the Senate Chamber and listened to Republicans denounce efforts to filibuster President Bush's judicial appointments. One after another, they sermonized about the body's Constitutional, even moral, obligation to give each nominee an "up or down vote."
At the time, Sen. Mitch McConnell said, "regardless of party, any President's judicial nominees, after full debate, deserve a simple up-or-down vote."
Do you have a favorite recipe you'd like to share with others? If so, we've got just the book for you ... and you can help local students at the same time.
The News-Journal's Newspapers In Education program is working on a community cookbook that will include all your favorite recipes - AND raise money that will help provide NIE subscriptions for students to use in their classrooms.
In the past year, the Central Kentucky News-Journal delivered more than 800 newspapers to local classrooms each Monday and Thursday.
The recession has hit our country hard. According to a recent survey from the Kaiser Family Foundation, it has motivated more than half of us to cut back on needed health care expenditures. The desire to rein in spending at a time like this is understandable. But skimping on medical care is a dangerous way to do it. Thankfully, there are some simple - and safe - strategies to save money on health care without sacrificing your health.
Here are my Top 5.
Know your health plan's fine print.
For anyone who complains about getting a ticket for not buckling up when driving or riding in a motor vehicle, here's a crash course in reality:
- 826 people were killed on Kentucky's roadways in 2008.
- 55 percent of those killed were not wearing a seat belt.
When worn correctly, seat belts are proven to reduce the risk of fatal injury to front-seat occupants by 45 percent and by 60 percent in pickup trucks, SUVs and minivans.
I stood in the driveway Monday morning in my PJs, waving and smiling through my tears.
My husband stood beside me and whispered, "Just think, we have to do this two more times."
I nearly smacked him.
My baby was driving himself to school for the first time ever.
Yes, I know a 16-year-old isn't technically a "baby," but as I've told each of our three kids many times before, they'll always be Momma's babies no matter how old they get.
If my home phone rings, 99 percent of the time it's a telemarketer. This has been going on for years. I'll tell ya, pay off a couple of credit cards and the wolves start pounding at your door.
It's gotten so bad, I won't even answer the phone anymore. For a while, I was getting calls every day.
Imagine my surprise when I started getting telemarketing calls via my cell phone.
All of the calls - I've received seven of them this month - are a pre-recorded message warning me that my auto warranty is about to expire.
A couple of weeks ago my brother Phil invited me to go with him to a program in Louisville where Terry Anderson, who was held prisoner by terrorists in Beirut, Lebanon for almost seven years, was going to speak. I had assumed his presentation would be concerning his being held prisoner for such a lengthy period of time, but since this was really old news, he was actually speaking about the difficulty of interpreting the world news as it is received by the viewers - or readers - as the case may be.
We want to bring you more of what you want to read. So that's exactly what we're going do.
Starting with today's issue, we are eliminating some of the features in the News-Journal that we believe aren't as well read as or as necessary to our readers as others.
We're doing this in order to have more space on our printed pages for the items you want to read.
"A little less conversation, a little more action please,
All this aggravation ain't satisfactioning me,
A little more bite and a little less bark,
A little less fight and a little more spark."
—Elvis Presley "A Little Less Conversation"
Here's my two cents.
I just finished teaching two introduction to communication classes last week at Campbellsville University.
According to NBC News producer Jay Blackman, I'm worth a lot of money.
His Monday night story, "What is a mom's work worth?" laid it all out on the line.
"They say it's the small things, but when it comes to mothers, the small things really do add up. Whether it's driving to karate, making doctor appointments, or paying the bills, Mom's job is never done - and she does it all for free."

Aside from any major issues to confront, the new Gainesville mayor also will be in something of a political fish bowl.
Hall County
Today is the last day to register to vote for the municipal elections in November. To be eligible to vote in Georgia, residents must:
Gainesville voters who cast ballots in November will be the first to directly elect a mayor.
Updated: Election qualifying continues today and Friday in Gillsville and Clermont. This morning, incumbent Larry Poole qualified for Gillsville mayor. In Clermont, Lynn Adams, executive director of the Georgia Mountains YMCA, qualified for an at-large council position.
Today kicks off the qualifying period for candidates who want to run for a position in November's municipal elections. Here's a quick overview for each city.
Gainesville native and longtime community activist Rose Johnson announced Tuesday she is running to become the city's first elected mayor in November.
Hall County Commissioners Craig Lutz and Scott Gibbs each raised more than $11,000 in the first six months of 2013, campaign disclosure reports show.
Many Gainesville voters will do something in November they've likely never done in their lives - vote for mayor.
As election years go, it's been quiet so far, but a slew of municipal elections are scheduled this fall.
Tony Beatty, a marketing and communications consultant, announced Saturday his intention to seek the District 1 post on the Hall County Board of Commissioners currently held by Craig Lutz.
Twenty-two-year-old Pablo Picazo said Tuesday he plans to run for the Gainesville City Council seat against long-serving Councilman George Wangemann, representing District 4.

A LOT has happened in the 22 years since Robin Wood became chairman of the board of trustees of Francis House Children's Hospice in Didsbury, Greater Manchester.
As Robin, 84, of Ilkley, retires from the chairmanship of the charity and cause that he has dedicated his life to, he recalls the moment he met a formidable force in the children's hospice movement.
Back in 1987, there were only three children's hospices in the UK. Robin was the Administrator at one of them, Martin House in Wetherby, Yorkshire.
Three years later, Father Thomas Mulheran and Sister Aloysius visited Martin House as they wanted to provide respite care for sick children and their families in the north west.
"My office was near the front of Martin House as it was at the time, and I heard this rather stentorian voice come through the door and say 'this is what we want!"
That was the beginning of Robin's long-standing relationship with Francis House and its founder Sister Aloysius. Her drive and determination saw the opening of the children's hospice only eighteen months later in November, 1991.
Robin chaired his first meeting on February 22, 1992, welcoming a new member to the Board of Trustees, Chris Roberts.
By coincidence in his final act as chairman on Thursday, Robin handed the chair to Chris, through unanimous vote of the Trustees.
Born Sept, 1929, a former Chief Executive of the Wool, Jute and Flax training board and Chairman of Leeds West district health authority, Robin was awarded the CBE in January, 1985 for services to the NHS.
In 1996 Francis House cared for one child over the age of 16, now that number has increased to over 90. Today the hospice supports over 250 sick children and young people a year.
"We all started off supporting children and their families, because that is what it is all about," Robin said. "Because of all sorts of changes, partly through hospice work like ours, and substantially the result of medical interventions, some of the children born with life-limiting conditions are increasingly living longer.
"Therefore we've had to consider closely the age range of the children in our care.
"When we first started boys with Duchenne muscular dystrophy were living between 13 and 15 years of age, now they're living longer some into their 20s."
Revd David Ireland, Chief Executive of Francis House said: "Robin has been an amazing chairman and since the Trust began to meet as an Independent trust he's the only chair we've had. But his knowledge from previous roles has been invaluable in making Francis House what it is today."
In May this year Francis House doubled its size with the opening of an extension of a further seven bedrooms for teenagers and young adults.

Through the Iowa Initiative for Sustainable Communities (IISC), University of Iowa professors and students help Decorah and other Iowa communities build sustainability by addressing economic, environmental and socio-cultural issues.
The IISC will continue its sustainability work in Decorah/Winneshiek County during the 2014-15 academic year. Project details will be announced early this summer.
UI graduate students in Urban and Regional Planning completed sustainability projects in Decorah during the 2009-10 and 2010-11 academic years.
"While Decorah has worked with students and leaders from this program in the past, we look forward to this renewed partnership because of the value of the work product the students bring from their academic environment," Decorah City Manager Chad Bird said. "We believe the students bring a fresh perspective to Decorah's projects and offer keen insight into solving our issues in a positive and energetic way."
The IISC is a campus-wide initiative funded through the Better Futures for Iowans grant from the University of Iowa Office of the Provost and is supported by the UI Office of Outreach and Engagement.
"I am honored to be a part of the IISC and its work to foster collaboration with communities who are offering their ideas for engaged student learning," said Linda Snetselaar, UI Associate Provost of Outreach and Engagement. "Our goal is to participate at the very highest level in meeting the needs of our community partners while offering University expertise that coincides with the wishes of our Iowa citizens in Decorah."
The Decorah and Winneshiek County project proposals carry multiple levels of importance.
"We're excited about the combination of regional, county and city projects," IISC Program Coordinator Nick Benson said. "The partnership will have a really nice impact on multiple levels."
Students likely will be working on an economic impact study of the frac sand mining industry, a trail routing and economic impact study of a regional "Backbone Trail," an economic impact study of recreational trails in Winneshiek County, a storm water utility analysis and updating building, energy and planning and zoning codes.
"Some of the studies will have long-lasting influence on public health, public safety and quality of life for residents in Winneshiek County and its municipalities," said Dean Thompson, Winneshiek County supervisor and community coordinator for the IISC project.

More than 10,000 litres of beer have been brewed in preparation. Whether its marketing genius or utter madness remains to be seen, but Green Beacon Brewing Co. in Brisbane's Teneriffe has chosen this Friday, the start of the Australia Day long weekend, for their much anticipated opening.
"We have a lot of beer in preparation, but yes we do worry about selling out. If there's anything worse than a pub with no beer, it has to be a brewery with no beer," says venue manager Andrew Sydes.
Green Beacon's owner-brewers Adrian Slaughter and Marc Chrismas have crafted six beers from an ale to a porter; a range that will be supplemented with a seasonal beer.
"The range of styles, and flavours give us a really good shot at offering something for everyone. We
want to advocate beer as incredibly versatile; it's not just the fizzy yellow, super cold lager most Australians are used to-there's amazing variety available," says Sydes.
They are also working on a cider, which is due for release in the not too distant future. Beer comes in small and large sizes and drinkers can sit at a 12 metre spotted gum bar right in the thick of it all and graze from a largely locally sourced menu. Seafood is a feature, with Moreton Bay oysters and bugs, Queensland prawns, spanner crab and red claw, as well as Lake Wivenhoe organic olives and bread from just up the road at Chouquette. They've even sourced Queensland wine in case anyone wants a palate cleanser.
With a license until midnight and an uncomplicated menu, Sydes says they'll be able to supply the late night dining crowds.
"Brisbane does lack a fair bit in decent late night dining but if someone comes in at 10pm and wants a dozen oysters, or a cheese plate, it's no problem."
Green Beacon, 26 Helen Street, Teneriffe.
