Ever wanted to learn how to paint your own barn board headboard feature wall? I love the look of the Farmhouse trends these days. with Magnolia designs taking over the HGTV scene and shiplap everywhere, I wanted my own take on this using rough cut rustic Cedar wood to create a floor to ceiling headboard. Adding a rustic paint finish to the wood made this take on a Farmhouse meets Urban Chic guestroom makeover super easy! Read on for how to Paint a Barn Board Headboard and get a dry brush white wash finish!
Some projects take longer than you expect… not because you don't have good intentions, sometimes life takes over, priorities take over. I've learned over the years not to rush things. When I started this room, I never would have thought of adding Pink and gold accents, however I've fallen in love with that look over the past 6 months, and have incorporated into my guest room makeover. You won't believe where it started — here is the before!
Looks Pretty right? It sure was! But it was small!The Closet was a walk in, but it wasn't functional!
It was quite a small room, with a LARGE closet. I had some creative and hands on help with this project. My mother, and my partner Will Howe and I got creative and did some measurements, and decided that if I ripped out the closet I could actually fit a queen size bed in the nook where the closet was, opening u the room to feel double the size.
We removed the closet! and just like that the space doubled!
I wanted to lighten the wall colour and go for a real Farmhouse light and bright white feeling.
I created a custom blend with a couple of Fusion Pints that I had lying around after my driftwood wall was finished. I poured everything I had into a large 5 gallon bucket, and then slowly added a touch of ash and a touch of Ash to darken up the Casement and Sterling that I used on the Driftwood Feature wall.
After a bit of stirring it blends super easily! I tested it on the wall, and it needed to be warmed up a bit- so I added a touch of Algonquin. Perfect!
I wanted to create a barn board headboard finish, and knew that I wanted grays to be dominant in the space.
Will grabbed rough cut Cedar boards. (This room smelled SOOOO good while working on this!) He cut everything to size, measured it perfectly and did the full installation! What a vision!
Step 1. Paint all the boards with a darker gray. We used Miss Mustard Seed's Milk Paint in the colour called Trophy. I think it is one of the most perfect grays out there and wanted it to be part of this room.
Here's 1 coat of Trophy on the rough cut cedar. Quite solid and opaque.
Step 2. We took Sterling and added 50% water. 1 Part Paint and 1 Part water to get a really watery coverage but an overall lighter gray.
It gave an overall lighter look and was a good transition colour to the white dry brush step next. I really enjoy layering multiple colours at a time that are very similar in tone, it gives a real sense of dimension the more you layer and blend!
Step 3. Then we took Casement and dry brushed over top. Here is a photo of my mom Loree working late at night trying to finish painting up these boards for Will to do the installation.
Literally just as it sounds! You want to lightly dip your brush into the paint, then remove most of it of the brush onto a piece of paper towel so the brush is virtually dry, then ever so lightly brush across, holding the brush horizontally to the piece of wood, and dragging it across. Only the smallest amount of paint will be left behind on the areas that are the most raised.
I couldn't be happier with the outcome. A Rustic Farmhouse style floor to ceiling custom built headboard with built in reading light, meets Urban Chic with floral prints of blush and rose gold accents in the room. My guest room Oasis.
And that custom blend colour on the walls using some left over paint turned out beautifully – covered the Inglenook Blue in 1 coat! I used about 3 Pints to paint the entire room!
By keeping the existing light fixture there were some extra savings here as well as some inexpensive thrift store items as well as some other collectibles I've been storing up for a few years that all magically worked so well in this room!
I love these accent pillows by Craftberry Bush!
What is your dream makeover for your guest room?
A special thank you goes out to Will Howe for coming up with the design inspiration and building the feature wall.

Strong girls battle evil in YTV's animated adventure Mysticons
September 7, 2017 Greg David	1 Comment
When it came to finding a critic for his new series, Mysticons, creator Sean Jara didn't have to go far. He turned to his young daughter.
"She is definitely a fan," he says with a laugh. "We started watching the animated storyboards and she's seen every iteration of them … she's getting a crash course in animation school." Jara, whose resumé includes writing for Degrassi: The Next Generation, Falcon Beach, Naturally, Sadie and Johnny Test has made a splash with the high-profile animated fantasy program Mysticons, about a quartet of fierce girls who become legendary heroes and battle a dangerous foe.
Airing Sundays at 11 a.m. ET/PT on YTV, Mysticons comes from Corus Entertainment's legendary Nelvana and promotes strong, confident, smart and funny girls. The 40-episode series boasts the voices of Alyson Court as Arkayna Goodfey, Drake City's princess who just wants to be a regular teen; Nicki Burke as Zarya Moonwolf, a street-smart gal with charm (and a pet foz named Choko); Evany Rosen as Emerald Goldenbraid, an engineer and Arkayna's best friend; and Ana Sani as Piper Willowbrook, an optimistic street kid who is best buds with Zarya.
And while Mysticons is aimed at young girls, the project didn't originally start out that way. At its inception, the project was boy-centric to focus on a male audience.
"I was hired because I'm one of the go-to people when it comes to boy's action, but after a few years of development Nelvana saw an opportunity to develop a more girl-centric show," Jara explains. "We talked about it, made the decision and went full-steam ahead with this new point of view." Jara says his original idea—based on the game Dungeons & Dragons—was scrapped and he thought, "What would my daughter watch?" The result is something that became much more special and awesome.
(l-r) Piper, Zarya, Arkayna and Em
"It was about giving girls a really good adventure show," he says. "And then we focused on the friendship between the heroes. You don't often have that in a hero group; you usually have four or five guys and one girl." Jara also overhauled his writing room once the gender shift happened, hiring on scribes like Shelley Scarrow, Amanda Spagnolo, Sandra Kasturi and Elise Morgan to get key insight into female friendships and break thrilling stories.
There is a lot jammed into Mysticons' first episode. We quickly establish the futuristic world of Drake City and are introduced to our quartet of future warriors. Turns out there was once a group of Mysticons who fought evil but they're no longer around. That's when evil descends on Drake City in the form of Baron Dreadbane (voiced by Mac Heywood) and an army of skeletons bent on taking over. Arkayna, Zarya, Em and Piper—after getting their hands on the fabled Dragon Disk—are transformed into a new team of Mysticons who defend their fair city and its citizens.
"It's a fast-moving pilot and I'm really proud of it," Jara says. "There is an A and a B story running simultaneously … I'm really happy with the way it came out."
Mysticons airs Sundays at 11 a.m. ET/PT on YTV.

Image: 'Lady Justice' by Eraclis Aristidou
What exactly is 'access to justice', and why do we need to preserve it? To answer that we need to first understand how the phrase came about, and then why it may be in danger of becoming a legal bygone.
'Access to Justice' was a phrase used by Lord Woolf in 1996, when attempting to streamline the litigation processes attached to personal injury claims suffered by everyday people in the United Kingdom. Largely based upon the combined incentives of Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) and part36 (early offers strategies), it was suggested that by expediting claims, there would by default, become a lesser chance of spiralling legal costs, and reluctance of the poor seeking recovery for damages sustained in events beyond their control.
While from a superficial slant this 'quickening' of justice appears to embrace those without the means of representation and the legal acumen to work alone, it is now suggested that in fact the contrary has become true. With the collective impact of legal aid cuts, increased court fees and numerous court closures, the resulting options take on a less attractive sheen, in lieu of the growing hesitance to seek legal reparation. This gross misdirection translates as a more cloaked prevention, over the illusion of equitability, and to date there are now many activists campaigning for a dramatic change in policy.
As was discussed in my own academic paper, the dangers inherent to early offers far outweigh the genuine reward for pursuance of authentic remedy, but unless fiscally challenged claimants are determined enough to transcend the aggressive manoeuvres of defendant representatives, the odds will by majority, remain stacked against them. This in effect, strangulates the innate purpose of accessible justice, and places far greater value upon the currency of industry; therefore while far from helping the weak, it runs a calculable risk of leaving them powerless and unable to fight back.
In a report published in October 2016, Amnesty International summarised that three key groups were directly affected by arbitrary cuts to legal aid support, namely (i) the vulnerable, (ii) the transitory and (iii) the disabled. And while taking great strides to illustrate the far-reaching consequences of such inconsiderate narrowness, the message was quite simply that:
"Amnesty International is therefore calling on the UK government to urgently fulfil its promise to review the impact of the cuts and take steps to ensure the right of the most disadvantaged sectors of society to access justice is adequately protected."
Writing as a father of a special needs child, the first and third groups possess immediate implications for families similar to my own, who for one reason or another, might find themselves facing legal action, whether through public body frustrations, or simple damages-based incidents. Yet knowing that in the first instance there is no legal counsel, and no validation of a right to claim without parallel concerns of costs, there remains only the stark realisation that the price of justice now relies upon the roll of a loaded dice.
Interestingly, while this area of discussion might prove hard to quantify with any degree of exactness, the Legal Ombudsmen publication 'Ten Questions to ask your Lawyer about Costs', proves instantly invaluable when evaluating the merits of private law claims. More notably, recent changes to the fixed fees threshold within litigation, has to some extent, appeased the fears of those predominantly affected by previous reforms; yet the issue remains that claimants subject to a deprivation of counsel (pro-bono or otherwise), might still think twice before filling out their CNF forms. This is a frank but cautious sentiment echoed by Jonathan Smithers of The Law Society, who remarked:
"A single approach for all cases, regardless of complexity, will lead to many cases being economically unviable to pursue which undermines the principle of justice delivering fairness for all."
However, when all is said and done, it is unlikely that both the practice industry and public interest will ever read from the same page, but that should never encourage the marginalisation of legal support in a world that is only becoming more crowded and prone to collisions of priority.
While there is understandable anger at the gradient closure of almost 90 courts across the country, the promise of a heavily invested tech and user-friendly system, could prove the one positive in this tempering of justice, and so it would be remiss to level accusations of deliberate prevention, when the suggestion of 'pop-up' courts is peddled through various forms of digital media.
There is however, cause for concern when terms such as 'makeshift' and 'public houses' are used in the same context as the 'fair' and 'reasoned' dispensation of justice, within an (albeit shrinking) framework of purpose built environments, before calm and attentive audiences. In fact, one might go so far as suggest that legal discourse is becoming diluted, by virtue of the fact that 'quickie' courts will themselves, overlook the precision of judicial application in favour of higher case turnover. Contrastingly, the option to pursue legal ends through online portals would seem to proffer greater structure, less chance for media intrusion and a significant cost saving, as was shown during Gary Linker's recent divorce.
In closing, the point in greatest need of clarification, is that the true meaning of 'access to justice' is not one of quick fixes to complex problems. Rather it is about an equal right to a domestic jurisprudence generations in the making. By weakening the fabric of reparation in favour of mass appeasement, the English judicial system will only prove itself counter-productive and rushed; and so it is crucial that any consideration for public interest, and those employed to serve them, must be delicately balanced, rather than a mere continuance of treating every legal problem like a nail.

Insight | February 2017
Image: 'Into the Future' by Trilby Cole
The world is in an increasing state of flux, and we are all racing to keep up. While there are countless casualties of the speed at which this is happening, the emerging impact upon law, and how it is both written and applied, is in need of collective address. We cannot reasonably hope to continue existing as island communities, instead there is a genuine need to share a goal of jurisdictional interdependence; a process that is already in delicate motion, despite entrenched political and religious divergence, or the increased polarity of wealth.
How these legal adjustments will materialise is still hard to quantify with precision, but there is evidently a number of academic and professional opinions echoing a similar message, and it is perhaps time that the global community started to at least consider the plausibility a uniform rule of law, instead of assuming that the status quo can continue to remain effective.
Regular contributor to domestic industry news is The Law Society, whose recent article 'The Future of Legal Services' touches upon a number of nationally indicative trends that convey a similar pattern to those held here; and key elements such as the growth of national and international economies, along with the quantum progression of technology, are instrumental in shaping emerging legal practices and the prevalence of market-adjusted pricing. However, it is just as important to note that the converging of political manifestos will ultimately produce a narrowing of access to justice, through global regulation and a fierce preservation of economic interests.
In fact, one of the many questions asked of law graduates seeking training contracts, is how they feel the merging of investment and banking sectors will influence the overall operation of multi-national law firms, as a growing number seek consolidation to navigate the undercurrent of change. While it is a reasonable question in itself, it demonstrates a lack of cognisant awareness to the effects of destabilisation, despite history showing that the only real constant is change.
In contrast, we need only look at driverless cars to appreciate the impact automation of transport will have upon civil litigation and road traffic accident claims, as after all who becomes liable when injury does occur? There are also suggestions that mechanised judges could prove the way forward when trying to manage the algorithms of robot-created journalism, and how best to decipher the rights from the wrongs, as was discussed in a recent paper in the European Journal of Law and Technology; an article that ponders not only possible extinction of the human prose, but the relevance of solicitors when complex cases require meticulous attention to detail, and a diverse range of case material to help develop laws.
Similarly, when an internationally administrative view is expressed, the cautionary sentiments remain just as poignant when considering that the reluctance to welcome organic growth leaves a lot to be desired. This concern was remarked by Angel Gurria OECD Secretary-General back in 2015, when she spoke at the UK Global Law Summit and warned:
"The classic model for the development of international law is not always adapted or even adequate to this rapidly changing environment. In contrast, the negotiation of major international conventions or agreements is often slow and painful. In some cases it has come to a complete standstill."
So when we contemplate the hybrid mechanisation of justice and legal discourse, we also embrace a fear that risks crippling those students seeking to secure their place in all areas of practice. Although there is no doubt that an empathic and world-experienced lawyer can undoubtedly help lead the charge into this new era of dispute resolution. However, such an endorsement is shallow by design if the industry does nothing to exploit attributive software in lieu of effective human centred mediation, as was pointed out by Adam Nguyen of Law Technology Today, who writes:
"Although technology is taking over many aspects of lawyer's jobs, automated tools are adept at rescuing lawyers from low-level and repetitive tasks, such as document management, contract review, filing, docketing, billing and accounting which bear little connection to law practice but increasingly consume much of lawyers' time."
Whichever way we choose to look at it, the increasingly immediate need to synergise with autonomous (and ultimately supportive) forms of non-human legal administration (and even algorithmic case determination) is inching closer, and while it may send shivers up some spines, it would be unwise to overlook the total number of fail cases falling victim to poor preparation, and the unimaginative cross-referencing of legal resources; all of which dilutes down to shedding the fear in the face of this unavoidable truth, in order to nurture better lawyers, lawmakers and judges, regardless of geography and jurisdiction.

I finished the wine storage cabinet yesterday! The Wine Storage Cabinet is made up of two separate cabinets. In part 1 , I built the lower section. The next task was to build the small cabinet that sits on top of the first one. Then add the faceframe.
I painted both cabinets before I took them upstairs into the pantry.
Then finally got the sucker installed.
I had to stand on the countertop a lot during the process and every time I was up that high, I could smell the sticky, stinky stale air coming out of the holes in the ceiling. There is another level above this one so it's not attic space but it's space between floors and it seemed hot and stinky.
So I paused work on the cabinetry and took time to FINALLY patch the two holes in the ceiling from moving the light and some other electrical work that had to be moved.
And talk about a MESS!
I even managed to drop a blob of joint compound onto the pile of faceframe material I had stacked in the corner.
This was going to be such an easy process to build this small cabinet and install the faceframe. LOL After like 3 days I'm finally ready for a faceframe.
I'm installing each individual piece, one at a time using glue and nails. I use a combination square in order to make sure I leave the same overhang on each side – inside the cabinet.
A little sanding and wood patch. This step is important!
Then prime and paint. Yeah!
Just for fun, I had to test out my storage devices.
Then put my wine glasses back in the kitchen because I have a ton more to do in here before we really get to use it.
I'm pretty excited about how this cabinet turned out. It had a lot of details and felt like it took forever to build. The rest of the pantry cabinets should be much easier and go faster. I can't wait to finish!
Awesome!!! You rock girl! So ready to have a glass of wine today.
Do you prime and paint the beadboard backing or do you use it "as is"?
The beadboard comes primed. If I've painted the inside of the cabinet first, I also paint the beadboard before I install it. It's much easier to do that while it's laying flat on a table.
I just got two of the GR Rippers! I will be using them this weekend. Could you please share what primer, paint, roller cover, and patch material you use? I want to build like you!! Thanks for the video!!

Lot:2054 Friedberg 1204 (W-3668). 1882 $100 Gold Certificate. PCGS Currency Extremely Fine 40.
Friedberg 1204 (W-3668). 1882 $100 Gold Certificate. PCGS Currency Extremely Fine 40.This dazzling Gold Certificate rarity presents a type and seal combination familiar to only the most advanced U.S. currency specialists. Most collectors and museum curators have never seen one, let alone owned one!

This 1882 $100 Gold Certificate displays a large red spiked Treasury Seal at center as seen on this catalog number only. Just five examples of this variety are known. Two are impounded in the collections of the Smithsonian and the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco. The present note is the finest of the five surviving examples and had its first appearance in Barney Bluestones March 1945 offering of the Albert A. Grinnell Collection. Much could be said about Bluestones seven-sale offering of this collection. In brief, Part I crossed the block on November 35, 1944, and Part VII was sold on November 30, 1946. The only attendees for most of the sales were Bill Donlon, James Wade, Frederick C.C. Boyd, Richard Saffin, and Herman Crofoot, Donlon recalled. Donlon, who operated a theatre and an amusement park arcade, later became a professional currency dealer and was a close friend to Dave Bowers. The world of paper money changed dramatically with the publication Robert Friedbergs United States Paper Money book in 1953. In retrospect, most earlier activities are amazing to contemplate!

It is almost certain that the presently-offered note never saw real circulation but was folded into quarters and stashed away upon issue. The paper is bright and creamy white, displaying just four light vertical folds. Abundant margins are seen as is brilliant color in the gold overprints and red spiked Treasury Seal. The portrait of Missouri senator Thomas Hart Benton is sharply inked at left as is the bold orange-gold back print. This note was acquired by Mr. Anderson for $282,000 from a January 2014 auction. Given its combination of grade and rarity and the current market for elite level U.S. currency we would not be surprised to see that realization surpassed.

From Barney Bluestones sale of March 1945, lot 551; Stacks sale of March 1990, lot 1804; Currency Auctions of Americas sale of January 1999, lot 1590. Heritage sale of January 2014, Lot 17161.

Everyone loves a good summer heatwave, especially given our normally mild climate here in the UK. Eventually, though, even our cars start to react to the weather in the same way we do – the heat starts to wear them down! Some parts of your car are particularly vulnerable to the higher temperatures. Below, we've tipped you off to exactly what those parts are, and how to stop them from becoming too much of a problem.
The car battery is arguably one of the most common causes of summertime breakdowns. It can also be especially vulnerable to the summer heat because of its makeup. Basically, it contains a liquid mixture of acid and water. Over time, the battery itself generates heat, and during the summer months, the darkness under a metal bonnet can get particularly blistering.
This gradually evaporates the liquid in the battery. If these liquid levels get low enough to expose the internal plates of the battery, it can then cause damage to its cells. A battery with damaged cells produces less voltage, which makes it more vulnerable to running down altogether, ultimately leaving you stranded on the side of the road.
So, what exactly can you do about this? To be honest, it depends on the age of your car. Some of the older models (pre-2010) occasionally need their batteries topping up, which is done by simply unscrewing their cap and topping it up with deionised and distilled water. We're not suggesting you do that, though! Instead, if you've got doubts about your car's battery it's best to simply take your beloved motor to visit your nearest friendly mechanic, who will check all that stuff for you. At the very worst, a replacement battery might be on the cards. They're not cheap (often between £50 and to £200), but don't assume a dead battery means you'll automatically have to scrap your car!
When the mercury soars, your car battery will likely be amongst the major car components to feel the heat. There are a couple more it's worth keeping an eye on though, too!
Rubber and intense heat have never got on terribly well together, so it probably won't surprise you to learn that your tyres can be drastically affected by the heat. They can dry and blow out in particularly intense heat, especially if they're at the wrong pressure. The heat can make existing minor problems with your tyres a lot worse, so at the very least it's worth checking their pressure before you hit the road. It should help you avoid any unpleasant surprises at 70mph!
Your brakes are affected in broadly the same way. Basically, the intense heat can have an effect on their surfaces. This can causes what's known as 'brake fading', where they get gradually less effective over a period of time, increasing your braking distance accordingly. Don't panic – you'll generally have a lot of time to notice this effect. The solution is the same: take it to the garage!
Just like us, in hotter temperatures our engines need all the fluids they can get! Make sure you're extra vigilant about your oil levels and changes in the summer months. More frequent changes will help your car to run smoother for longer. Trust us – in a heatwave like this, you'll know when it's not!
In some ways, this ties into what we were just saying about oil. Similarly, in hotter weather, your fuel can evaporate more quickly, which can make your car marginally less efficient. To counteract this, take it easy on the accelerator as much as you can. Cutting your speed by just 10 miles an hour can have a noticeable impact on your fuel efficiency. To be honest, it's a good habit to get into in general!
The good news is that in the grand scheme of things, most of these issues are relatively minor. If your vehicle is properly struggling in the heat, it takes a wise person to recognise when it's starting to give up the ghost. And if you've decided it's finally time to scrap your car, we're exactly the people to help! We've designed our process so that it's as simple and as streamlined as possible. All we need is your car reg and postcode, and you'll find yourself looking at your very own instant online quote.


I am trying to obtain pictures of a few War of 1812 Maryland Militia Company lists from Harford County, Maryland. When the originals were reviewed 30+ years ago some of the names were unreadable. Is there a way to get pictures of these lists?

Re: I am trying to obtain pictures of a few War of 1812 Maryland Militia Company lists from Harford County, Maryland. When the originals were reviewed 30+ years ago some of the names were unreadable. Is there a way to get pictures of these lists?
Thank you for your question to History Hub! NARA is in possession of many useful War of 1812 records at the National Archives in Washington, DC that are of use to genealogists as they search for records of ancestors who served in the conflict. Most of these are summarized in an article published in our agency magazine, Prologue, back in 1991. The relevant article is available online here.
However, given your request for the company list of a particular militia company unit which may or may not have been federalized (interspersed among regular U.S. Army units), it is possible NARA's records will not adequately answer your request. For state and county-level militia units, there would be two sources to check depending on whether or not you're looking for a particular name (i.e. an ancestor) or the lists from Harford County as a whole.
If you are looking for a particular ancestor of yours who served in the militia during the war, their records (muster rolls and CMSR- combined military service record) are reproduced digitally on both Ancestry.com and FamilySearch.com in some form. Digital access to these records may or may not be sitting behind a paywall on each website, so be aware of that in advance. Assuming you want to forgo paying a fee to either of these site to get copies, you could do so manually by traveling down to NARA's location in downtown DC. Keep in mind that NARA records and those reproduced from NARA are from soldiers who served with federal units only, so it is possible the Harford County lists are not in our possession. Therefore, please contact them via email at archives1reference@nara.gov before you plan your trip.
If the militia companies from Harford County were never federally integrated and your request is not limited to a single individual or individuals, your best option to find the lists in their entirety would likely be the Maryland Historical Society in Baltimore, Maryland. They are in possession of an extensive collection from the War of 1812, including "uniform regulations, commissions, regimental orders, ration and provision returns, pay rolls, certificates of service, orderly books, and pensions." A cursory term search among their description of the records contains four mentions of Harford County, so it is possible what the lists you mention reside there.
Hope this helps. Best of luck on your search!
The militia lists that I am looking for were copied and published by F Edward Wright in a book "Maryland Militia War of 1812 Vol. 3 Cecil & Harford Counties".
Is there a RG number that the information is located in?
The Prologue article in the first link above consists entirely of RG 94 (Adjutant General's Office). Among these records the microfilm rolls of the CSRMs referenced in the original response are likely to contain records of interest (Index to Compiled Service Records of Volunteer Soldiers who Served During the War of 1812 (M602, 234 rolls). Along with this, a secondary source volume is provided in the article (Francis B. Heitman's Historical Register and Dictionary of the U.S. Army (1903). There are no consolidated "service records" for officers before 1863. Aside from entries in Heitman, one can examine the correspondence of the Adjutant General's Office for pertinent documentation relating to these officers. Most of the names of regular army soldiers who served during the War of 1812 appear in the fifteen volumes of enlistment registers that show the names of soldiers enlisting for the period 1798 - 1815.). Archives 1 reference at the e-mail address also referenced in the above response from Research Services can help you narrow down your search if you are planning on making a visit.
Because the records in question come from a volunteer militia from the state of Maryland, I would also certainly contact the Maryland Historical Society referenced in the original response. They may have the originals of the records featured in the Wright volume you cite above and a visit or reference consultation over the phone or in person there may allow you to identify the discrepancies Wright was unable to correct.

South Africa to develop cryptocurrency regulation in 2022
After a string of large pyramid schemes in South Africa, the local regulator announced plans to develop full regulation of the cryptocurrency industry in 2022.
FSCA Commissioner Unathi Kamlana told Bloomberg that the rules will be developed jointly with other departments.
They will determine how digital assets such as bitcoin and ether should be traded. In addition, it is necessary to study the processes of interaction of cryptocurrencies with traditional currencies and the risks for financial stability and banking.
"We need to be able to intervene if we think customers do not understand a product that carries potential risks. The wording in the documents must be very careful not to legitimize cryptocurrency fraud, "Kamlana said.
At the same time, the official said that while cryptocurrencies do not pose a systemic risk to financial stability, and the FSCA considers them to be assets rather than currencies. At the same time, the Central Bank of South Africa is working to create its own stablecoin and, according to Kamlana, this is the best way to use innovation.
"If I were giving advice to retail investors, I would say to wait for the results of the work of the Central Bank. After all, the state stablecoin would be the best option, given the reliability and stability of the agency, "concluded the FSCA Commissioner.
Recall that in the middle of the year, the founders of the South African investment platform AfriCrypt Amir and Raees Kajee stole 69,000 BTC and fled. At the time of the incident, the amount of stolen funds was $ 3.6 billion.

Elucidarium (also Elucidarius, so called because it "elucidates the obscurity of various things") is an encyclopedic work or summa about medieval Christian theology and folk belief, originally written in the late 11th century by Honorius Augustodunensis, influenced by Anselm of Canterbury and John Scotus Eriugena. It was probably complete by 1098, as the latest work by Anselm that finds mention is Cur deus homo. This suggests that it is the earliest work by Honorius, written when he was a young man. It was intended as a handbook for the lower and less educated clergy. Valerie Flint (1975) associates its compilation with the 11th-century Reform of English monasticism.

Overview
The work  is set in the form of a Socratic dialogue between a disciple and his teacher, divided into three books. The first discusses God, the creation of angels and their fall, the creation of man and his fall and need for redemption, and the earthly life of Christ. The second book discusses the divine nature of Christ and the foundation of the Church at Pentecost, understood as the mystical body of Christ manifested in the Eucharist dispensed by the Church. The third book discusses Christian eschatology. Honorius embraces this last topic with enthusiasm, with the Antichrist, the Second Coming, the Last Judgement, Purgatory, the pains of Hell, and the joys of Heaven described in vivid detail.

The work was very popular from the time of its composition and remained so until the end of the medieval period. The work survives in more than 300 manuscripts of the Latin text (Flint 1995, p. 162). The theological topic is embellished with many loans from the native folklore of England, and was embellished further in later editions and vernacular translations. Written in the 1090s in England, it was translated into late Old English within a few years of its completion (Southern 1991, p. 37). It was frequently translated into vernaculars and survives in numerous disparate versions, from the 16th century also in print in the form of popular chapbooks. Later versions attributed the work to a "Master Elucidarius". A Provençal translation revises the text for compatibility with Catharism. An important early translation is that into Old Icelandic, dated to the late 12th century. The Old Icelandic translation survives in fragments in a manuscript dated to c. 1200 (AM 674 a 4to), one of the very earliest surviving Icelandic manuscripts. This Old Icelandic Elucidarius was an important influence on medieval Icelandic literature and culture, including the Snorra Edda.

The editio princeps of the Latin text is that of the Patrologia Latina, vol. 172 (Paris 1895).

Jumpgate Evolution, commonly abbreviated as JGE, is an unreleased massively multiplayer online game having been in development by NetDevil intended to be published by Codemasters. The game is a sequel to Jumpgate: The Reconstruction Initiative and features a new graphics engine, all new assets and more accessible game play.

Originally scheduled for a June 2009 release, two rounds of layoffs took place at NetDevil and the studio and game eventually shut down because of financial issues. In July 2008 the studio was then acquired by the now defunct Gazillion Entertainment.

Gameplay
Evolution is an MMOG with twitch-based combat. Damage caused by the player will have constant and predictable damage, provided the target is hit. Ordnance will have a set amount of damage. Shields and armor will have a set durability. Provided the ordnance strikes the target, the outcome will not be random.

Players pick a nation at the start of the game but this does not limit them to certain roles. They can fulfill any role by buying a ship they deem fit for it. But players do have to acquire a license to be able to pilot that ship first. Players will also be able to gain standing with any nation regardless of whether they are a subject.

The game will offer both player versus environment (PvE) and player versus player (PvP) oriented content. And although open PvP is a major focus the game will also feature instanced PvP with rewards and XP. They are also working on implementing different risk/reward environments such as a system with a harsher death penalty for people who prefer a more hardcore kind of PvP gameplay.

The game will feature realm versus realm (RvR) gameplay elements such as allowing players to claim a sector of space for their nation by building up a sector control station. Squads will play an important role in this and (unlike in the previous game) Squads will be limited to players from a single nation.

The developers are aiming at creating a single type of server with all different types of gameplay spread over different areas. They want to allow players to involve themselves in different types of gameplay from day to day. However they still consider splitting up into different types of servers if this is deemed impossible.

The game will feature the same factions (now called nations) as the previous installment of the game. However the passing of time and a significant space distortion event (called The Shift) has changed the nations, one more than the other. Still only three of the nations are playable.

Playable nations are The Solrain Commonwealth, Quantar Paths and The Octavian Empire. The Solrain Commonwealth were a once benevolent but now corrupt mercantile state featuring mercenaries, smugglers, powerful corporations and major (crime) syndicates. Quantar Paths wereonce a unified nation, now dozens of cults (called Paths) unified only through the same fundamental belief that human destiny lies among the stars and that the Jumpgate network itself (called the Skein) will guide those who learn to listen. The Octavian Empire are an aggressive and militaristic nation driven to restore itself to former glory. The struggle for the currently vacant position of emperor is the cause of constant intrigue and a drain on the energy and resources of the nation but also the hope (and worry) of many for the restoration of Octavian dominance.

Other nations include The Hyperial Protectorate, The Amananth and Conflux. The Hyperial Protectorate were once a rival to the Quantar nation but were defeated by them in an earlier war. The Shift has left the Protectorate without any planet further reducing the nation's might and they now only own a single station The Amananth, the creators of a single fully automated station in pre-Shift space. The Amananth is a dead nation - in post-Shift space many abandoned stations have been found and the Amananth are now believed long dead. Many also believe post-Shift space to be the birthplace of the Amananth nation and that the Amananth were somehow responsible for the Shift itself. The Conflux are an alien race that ignores any form of communication and is aggressive to all nations. A war between the Conflux and the Humans brought the Humans almost to the brink of extinction. Although the humans fought them off the eventual outcome of the war is matter for speculation as at the height of the struggle the Shift pulled the human race away. The Conflux are also present in post-Shift space but the significance of their presence is not yet known.

McHenry County Board member John Reinert announces run for Illinois Senate District 32 seat
By MEGAN JONESEmailFollow
John Reinert announced his candidacy for Pam Althoff's 32nd District Senate
CRYSTAL LAKE – The race for a seat in Illinois Senate District 32 is heating up with another Republican McHenry County Board member announcing his run for the spot.
John Reinert announced Thursday at the Crystal Lake Metra station that he would be seeking the seat, which is held by state Sen. Pamela Althoff.
Althoff is not seeking re-election, and she was at the announcement in support of Reinert.
"It feels great to have her endorsement," Reinert said. "She has been a real leader in the area, and I hope to carry on what she's done."
Reinert lives in Crystal Lake with his wife, Cassy, and has more than 30 years of experience as a homebuilder and real estate broker in Lake and McHenry counties.
As a builder, he said he has seen the toll on homeowners from rising taxes and the housing recession.
"I've sat across the table from people who just don't know if they can pay their mortgages," he said. "As a homebuilder, I've experienced the devastation brought on the housing market."
As a senator, he said he hopes to reduce property tax burdens and government mandates that restrain businesses, economic development and home ownership.
"As we are all aware, people are leaving the area to our less tax-burdened neighboring states," Reinert said. "This weighs very heavily on me, and I want to continue to fight for families and struggling business owners, working toward their rightfully deserved success."
County Board member Craig Wilcox also announced he is running for the seat last week.
The 32nd District represents parts of Crystal Lake, Woodstock, McHenry, Round Lake Beach, Lake Villa and Antioch.

"The student and I worked on the following topics: solving for coordinates when given the slope and parts of two points on a line, identifying the slope when given a linear equation in slope-intercept form, graphing lines when given a point and the slope, and determining the slopes of parallel/perpendicular lines. He has a full understanding of the problems, but I would caution him to consistently pay attention to the smaller details of the problems so as to not make arithmetic mistakes."
"We covered Similar Solids and Scale Factors. The student struggled with some algebra and with making connections between some concepts. The student was too hard on herself when she made a mistake or didn't know something right away. I shared some tips on how to work problems in pi form," without multiplying out all the pis to make the math easier. She definitely learned pretty quickly once it was presented to her clearly and concisely."
"The student had a review that she had already tried to complete on her own. I helped her answer the questions she didn't understand. Most of them involved quadratic expressions in some way. She seemed more confident than she was at first. Some of the questions she asked were just for me to check if her work was correct. "
"Student 1 and I worked on her schoolwork today, specifically on math and language arts. She's still learning the difference between action and being verbs, but it's coming along. We then did a bit of explorative math work, which I believe helps her more than just giving her the answer. We're working on making connections between the equation and the answer. Student 2 and I worked with math as well. She's doing really well with her simple addition and subtraction. I feel she's ready to move on to simple double-digit addition and subtraction. Good job to both girls!!"
"Today the student and I went over solving trigonometric equations. She was having a lot of difficulty in the beginning, but once I showed her a system for how to solve these types of equations, she began to understand them and solve them very quickly."
"We went over percentages today. I advised the student to always remember to show his work, and we discussed the strategy of setting up an equation before starting the problem."
"Today, the student and I covered metric conversions, fraction operations, single step variable equations and radical equations. She did very well with the single variable step equations. I assigned her extra homework in fractions to make sure she masters this subject. As always, she had a great attitude, and I know that she will retain these lessons as long as she does her assigned practice. "
"I explained factoring out common factors and using prime factorization to give the student an easier way to find the greatest common factor. I explained what primes were and how to make a factor tree. She mostly understood how to factor out and somewhat understood how to find solutions. My main goal was for her to learn the former, so we did not spend as much time finding solutions. We'll continue to work on this in our next session. "
"Today the student practiced counting forward by 2s and 3s, adding 4 to a number, and doubling numbers. He also began working with counting the difference between two number and adding and subtracting two digit numbers in his workbook."
"We discussed thermochemistry: molar heat of fusion and vaporization. We reviewed electron configuration, Lewis dot structures, polarity, electronegativity, and periodic table trends. The student catches on rather quickly. It's a lot of information to instill and grasp in a short time frame. I left the student with a review worksheet that we went over to help guide the learning. "
"We continued practicing methods for solving quadratic equations, including systems of equations. The student was receptive. We worked through many problems."


One of the main complaints of the judges was that most entries were about death. Well, when you're writing about the ocean, death is going to come up. It is a force of nature that takes lives on a daily basis. In any case, the winner they chose wrote about death as well, so I don't know why they were complaining. Also, many awesome short stories end in death or have something to do with it. That was the topic of pretty much every short story we read in 9th grade English class. Anyway, my story is posted below. Feel free to let me know what you think of it!
When the sea calls to a heart, as it sometimes does, there is no course but to answer. It beckons with promises of beauty, wildness, freedom. It tempts the sensibilities with delicate offerings of peace and comfort. But one must take caution, for the careless are easily misled by this duplicitous seductress. Like so many facets on a glistening stone, a soft embrace can swiftly become cold, suffocating— fatal. A whisper to the soul's deepest longings may be the last words you ever hear.
I should know; the sea has taken everything from me. Yet I stand here in the wreckage that remains, and it still has the audacity to pull at me, tease me. Even now, it tauntingly offers to unlock a wildness in my heart that only one other has ever inspired. It is ironic, I suppose, and perhaps fitting, that the two I loved best are now forever one. It was he who introduced me to this sapphire realm: his first true love. I never envied his devotion. I became as infatuated as he. But the sea is a terrible and jealous lover. It has taken my love, and I now stand an outsider, forever separated from both.
I gaze out across the gray expanse, alternating between feelings of rage, longing, pleading, and acceptance, just like the pulsing rhythm of waves crashing on this broken shore. What I am pleading for at this point, even I cannot say. The waters keep pulling at my legs, almost as though they are pleading with me as well, begging for my forgiveness. I know better than to listen. I take a step back out of reach.
I blink a few times, trying to keep the tears in. I wrap my arms around my waist as tight as I can, as if I can lessen the pain by suffocating it. "I remember his smile," I continue, as if the sea cares to hear my pitiful words. "It shone through his eyes like sunlight on crystal waves." How I regret that I was not there to save him, that the only one there to witness the final light in those eyes was the very one stealing it.
As always, my efforts are in vain. My anger is drowned out by the repetitive sounds of the shore. I stumble to my knees, water and sand seeping into my clothes, into my skin, filling me with cold. An ashen wave foams around me, heedless of my presence as it continues its unending cycle of forward and back. Somehow it lulls me to a strange state of calm. When the next surge pulls away from me, it snares the insides of my torn heart and draws everything forth along with it. Sorrow pours out of my chest and disperses into the indigo depths, to places no man alive has ever seen. It is no more, and I am blank.
I don't know how long it is I stay here on my knees, but it doesn't matter. With every passing wave my knees skink further and further into the cold sand. As I sit, I imagine the tiny grains slowly covering first my legs, then my midsection, then all of me until I am nothing more than part of the land itself.
But I don't want to be part of the land. All that I have imagined, all that I have dreamed, all that I love, and hate, is in the sea—is the sea. No matter how I may rail against it, still I cannot escape it. I do not wish to. I am captivated by salty winds, azure waters, and the mystery that lies beneath countless fathoms. I am filled with awe when rampant waves pound upon a resistant rocky shore, slowly but surely eating away even the most steadfast of cliffs. I am horrified when mighty storms rage and cause the very ocean to boil and churn, rising up like some living entity to destroy all life in its path. All of these are the same sea, and to love one is to love all, for you cannot offer such a beast only half your heart.
The tides rise, and the call becomes more intense. The echoing darkness offers me peace from my turmoil, rest from my pain. I close my eyes as the churning waters cover my head. My hair floats from my neck and drifts above me, suspended in the in-between like dark mats of seaweed. I stop resisting and let the current take me. I follow the sweet whisper that draws me ever onward towards the longing of my heart. Slowly, my eyes open and I look out into a world I've only dreamed of, a world of infinite wonders, and it is beyond imagination. I am no longer the outsider. I have given everything too, and it will forevermore be I, he, and the beautiful, treacherous sea.

History Of The MCHFmchcares-com2018-05-08T05:57:06-07:00
Of The MCHF
To ensure a constant source of capital funding
History Of The MCHF
To keep pace with the growing technological and service needs of Mountains Community Hospital, the community identified the need for a foundation to ensure a constant source of capital funding. The Mountains Community Hospital Foundation was founded in 1991.
The MCH Foundation is a non-profit organization dedicated to supporting the ongoing expansion and improvement of the Hospital. The Foundation creates diverse tax-deductible giving opportunities, including individual and corporate gifts, planned giving and community fundraising events. Its first president was the hospital's first ambulance driver, Ross Johnstone.
The Foundation hosted its first Le Grand Picnic in 1994 at the home of Gene and Billie Yeager, long-time supporters of the Hospital. Le Grand Picnic has since grown to be the Foundation's signature fundraising event and a "can't-miss" event for many mountain residents each summer.
The Summit Club unveiled by the Foundation in 1998, is a yearly giving club that raises funds to allow the Foundation to effectively plan projects and help the Hospital to purchase needed equipment. The work of the Foundation has enabled Mountains Community Hospital to maintain its status as a modern healthcare facility, able to keep up with medical and diagnostic technology. Gifts to the Foundation have made possible a helipad, a state-of-the-art CT scanner, physical rehabilitation equipment, an ED Ultrasound and a Telemetry Patient Monitoring System.
The Hospital's first expansion, since its dedication in 1951, was called Project 2000. Announced in March of 1998, the $2.1 million expansion entailed two phases. The first added more than 2,000 square feet to the laboratory and radiology departments. Phase 2 doubled the size of the Emergency Department. The Hospital was able to reach its goal in July, 2000 and opened a new, modern emergency department, an expanded laboratory and a radiology department, that included radiography, CT scanner, mammography and ultrasound capabilities.
Since then the Foundation has helped the Hospital to purchase a CAT –Scanner in 2007, the DX-A Scan, a bone density measurement system in 2010. The ECRC (Long Term Care Unit) was renovated in 2011. In addition, an ED Ultra Sound, Telemetry Monitoring System and Digital Mammography were purchased in 2012.
The Mountains Community Hospital Foundation is a 501 (c) 3, Tax ID # 330530904.

Local governments eager to see returns from Amazon.com deal
By Katie McKellar@KatieMcKellar1 Dec 17, 2016, 4:10pm MST
Share All sharing options for: Local governments eager to see returns from Amazon.com deal
FILE "" It's not yet known exactly how much revenue the state and local governments will reap from Utah's sales tax deal with Amazon.com, but local leaders are eager to start seeing the dollar signs.
Reed Saxon, Associated Press
SALT LAKE CITY — It's not yet known exactly how much revenue the state and local governments will reap from Utah's sales tax deal with Amazon.com, but local leaders are eager to start seeing the dollar signs.
That's because they view it as revenue they should have been collecting all along — meaning when they do get the returns, the revenue should either level out their tax bases or manifest back to the taxpayer in a varying range of services.
Lincoln Shurtz, government affairs director for the Utah Association of Counties, said local governments for years have been pushing the Legislature to expand internet sales collections to all companies that do a significant amount of business in Utah. Amazon's deal, he said, is a "great first step" in repairing a deteriorating tax base thanks to an "economy shifting online."
"It's capturing what should have been paid — unrealized revenue that should have been coming to cities and counties in the first place," Shurtz said. "So clearly it will be helpful in paying for basic services, education, road funding and infrastructure."
An estimated $200 million in state sales tax and another $100 million in local sales taxes go uncollected each year from online purchases made by Utahns.
It's still not clear how much of a dent Utah's deal with Amazon will make in that revenue gap because state tax officials have not yet shared an estimate. But it's expected that the internet giant — one of the nation's most popular online shopping sites — could collect millions.
"No one knows the amount of money cities will see," said Roger Tew, senior policy analyst with the Utah League of Cities and Towns. "But it is the biggest online retailer that did not have a nexus with Utah."
According to a recent study for the American Booksellers Association, Amazon sold nearly $428 million in retail goods in Utah last year but did not have to pay $28.6 million in sales taxes.
The study also estimated that Amazon's sales in Utah represent the equivalent of nearly 300 retail storefronts and more than 2,500 retail jobs, and the combined loss of sales and property taxes costs each household nearly $35.
At a recent meeting with the Utah League of Cities and Towns, Utah State Tax Commission Chairman John Valentine told a room full of local mayors and city council members what he could about the deal with Amazon and what wasn't bound by a confidentiality agreement.
Valentine said the sales tax collection will begin Jan. 1 and will include taxes for state and local entities — including transit districts.
Just like any other vendor, he said, Amazon will keep 1.31 percent of the sales tax it collects from Utah customers. The rest will go to taxing entities, with rates varying by zip code.
"It will be up to the local governments to decide what to do with the money," Valentine said in an interview after his presentation. "You're going to have more in the general fund to be able to fund potholes, maybe reduce property taxes, collect garbage or pay police officers."
Tew said it will vary across local jurisdictions what elected leaders decide to do with the revenue, but for "people who want public services, this should be viewed as good news."
"It's a broader addition to a tax base that frankly needs to be maintained," he said. "If your base gets smaller, you have to raise rates. Nobody wants to do that."
In Utah's largest county, Salt Lake County Mayor Ben McAdams said he's "very interested" in knowing what kind of impact the Amazon deal will have on the county's general fund.
"We're not really expecting it to be such a large sum of money that it will be a game changer for our budget," McAdams said. "But I think it will give us the opportunity to invest in some basic services that we haven't been able to."
For example, he said, that funding could be allocated to a range of priorities, from parks and trails, to upgrades to the county's information technology mainframe.
"As we've lost tax power to online sales, we've had to scrape by and kick the can down the road," McAdams said. "It costs money to plow the streets and run basic services of government, so hopefully this will help keep taxes down."
The Utah Transit Authority will also likely benefit considerably from the Amazon deal, new UTA President and CEO Jerry Benson said during a recent meeting with the Deseret News and KSL editorial boards.
"I'm really anxious to see an estimate," Benson said. "I think it will be significant."
Whatever the amount, the funding will follow priorities the UTA board recently established for new revenue, including increasing bus service throughout the Wasatch Front, he said.

College in North Korea – Durihana Inc.
I begin today's blog by asking you to pray for a rescue that is currently in progress. I cannot say much more than that due to the sensitive nature of the work, but we will let you know when the rescue is complete and the North Korean's are safe.
I have been writing about the education system in North Korea. It is astonishing and stunning to see what education really is in North Korea-a system of idol worship. Today we look at college and university in North Korea. Though the country is destitute, they actually do have universities with students enrolled in them. They do not have many universities, but they do exist.
In the west when a student graduates high school, they immediately are asked by friend and family, "what are you going to do now?" "Are you going to go to college?" The graduate has a host of options now available to them. They can go choose a place they would like to work for and apply. They can go to school. They can even go to school and work. Not so in North Korea.
When a student in North Korea graduates what would be the equivalent of our High School, they have no choice. The government tells them where they will work. Most will never have a chance at going to college or university. They are not even given the option to do so. Further studies are only available to one group of graduates: those whose family is loyal to the regime.
A student may have talent, perfect grades, incredible aptitude, and a strong desire to further their studies in a certain subject, but it matters nothing if they do not have perceived loyalty to the regime. Perceived loyalty-because it only matters what the regime thinks. If in your family history there was a person who somehow sinned against the regime, then your chances of college are ruined. If you have a distant relative who fought for the South in the Korean war, your chances are ruined. If you have family who have Japanese ancestry, your chances are ruined. And if you have family who became Christians, your chances are definitely ruined.
Loyalty to a regime is what gets you into college. Loyalty is what advances you in every area of life in North Korea. As a result, high school graduation is not as big of a deal in North Korea. You finish school and go work for the state where they tell you to, when they tell you to.
This creates a society that doesn't dream, that doesn't hope; they only work. They don't innovate because that would involve thinking for themselves-a thing that could be perceived as disobedience to the regime. To suppress the desire to innovate is to suppress the image of God in man.


After the IoT Hackathon, Markus Jung, the head behind the project Dizmotics, presented the finalized "hack" in our offices. As demonstrated in the video below, you can use Dizmotics to switch on a light, connect it to a physical light switch through docking and control switching your lights on and off.
Instead of a switch that a person flicks on and off, you could connect it with an wireless sensor to detect movement, dock it to the alarm dizmo and a dizmo light switch and voilà, you have an intrusion alarm.
Dizmotics uses dizmo as the user interface for IoTSyS, www.iotsys.org. IoTSyS is an Internet of Things integration middleware unifying the interface to serveral technologies (e.g. EnOcean, KNX, BACnet, 6LoWPAN, RFID) used in home and building automation that are not interoperable, thus breaking up the digital silos. As the original control interface of IoTSyS is based on RESTful Web services – porting it to dizmo went smoothly.
As illustrated in the video below, controlling and visualizing physical objects with Dizmotics is bi-directional and interoperable. KNX is the standard for controlling the lights or the thermostat and EnOcean is the battery-free wireless light switch (the white switch in the hand in the video below). This white switch can switch on and off the EnOcean dizmo and if it is docked, create a more complex functionality.
Dizmotics is an ease to use, very intuitive, yet powerful technology for the Internet of Things and automation systems.
