<img src="img/photo.jpg" alt="picture" width="300" height="300">

Do have you an idea please?

A: As much I know, you can't because the website is fetching the from the server, not from your local drive. If you try to open the image file you will get domain.extention/path/image-name
So I think you can't do it

A: You need put your code in html.file to see the image, in browser you just can see the DOM https://www.w3schools.com/js/js_htmldom.asp

The Spark And Everything After
Some say it was a spark that started the universe.
It's pointless trying to trace back before the spark because it's what happens afterward that's really important. Synapses spark inside the brain and send ideas into motion, there's a lot of great animated graphics of the process but it probably fails to capture the real lightning storm going on inside the head of a human.
The closest thing which replicates the process probably takes place inside a computer and that's the scary part.
People imagine machines as cold and calculating because they're used by humans to do some pretty awful things. Computers calculate compound interest and navigate missile guidance system for bombs delivered to commit mass murder and probably take out a few innocent children in the process. For now and hopefully forever people spark machines into actions in order to do a great deal of their dirty work. The illusion of computers giving orders is a convenient escape for those hoping to avoid responsibility. It's almost easier to accept an atrocity from a machine because human compassion isn't expected. But like the great and powerful Oz twisting and turning levers to power his illusion, there's always a pathetic man behind the curtain. For now.

The way in which the Lord, in the days of His flesh, dealt with cavilers and critics is very remarkable. He did not convert, but confound them. He did not appeal to anything spiritual in them; for they had no spiritual understanding in the things of God; but He silenced them by addressing Himself to their natural consciences.
We have one or two remarkable examples of this nature. On one occasion, for instance, we read, that the "Pharisees took counsel how they might entangle him in his talk. And they sent unto him their disciples with the Herodians, saying Master, we know that you are true, and teach the way of God in truth, neither do you care for any man; for you regard not the person of men. Tell us, therefore, What do you think? Is it lawful to give tribute unto Caesar, or not?" Here was a snare laid for His feet, a dilemma in which they thought they had placed Him. Now, suppose He had said, "It was not lawful to pay tribute unto Caesar," then they would have accused Him to the Roman governor as preaching high treason. And suppose He had said, "It was lawful to pay tribute to Caesar," then they would have asked, "How He, as a Jew, and professing obedience to the law, could command subservience to a foreign prince? when Moses had expressly commanded, 'One from among your brethren shall you set king over you - you may not set a stranger over you, who is not your brother.'" De 17:15.
But how did the Lord meet this cavil, and extricate Himself from this dilemma? He asked them to show Him the tribute-money; and when they had brought it unto Him, He said, "Whose is this image and superscription?" They were compelled to answer 'Caesar's.' "Then says he unto them, Render therefore unto Caesar the things which are Caesar's; and unto God the things that are God's." Matthew 22:16-21 The very fact of the money, bearing Caesar's image and superscription, circulating among them, was an unanswerable proof of their subjection to the Roman yoke, and that therefore it was lawful to pay tribute.
Again, on another occasion John 8:3, we read, that "the scribes and Pharisees brought unto him a woman caught in adultery;" and they tried to entangle Him by enquiring what was to be done with her. "Master," paying Him all due respect, said they, "Moses in the law commanded us that such should be stoned; but what do you say?" Here was a dilemma they thought to place the Lord in. Suppose He had said, "The woman ought to be stoned;" then they would have accused Him before the Roman governor of setting up the Jewish in opposition to the Roman law; the power of life and death being in the hands of the Roman governor only. And if He had said, "She ought not to be stoned;" they would have directly asked Him, "How could this be consistent with the law given by Moses?" But how wisely He met this difficulty, and took "the wise in their own craftiness," by saying, "He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her." John 8:7 By thus appealing to their natural consciences, He caught them in their own net, and overwhelmed them with confusion.
Our text, and the verses connected with it, afford another instance of the same nature. "And it came to pass, as Jesus sat at dinner in the house, behold, many publicans and sinners came and sat down with him and his disciples. And when the Pharisees saw it, they said unto his disciples, Why does your Master eat with publicans and sinners?" These self-righteous Pharisees were always on the watch to find, if possible, something to condemn the Lord with. And here they professed their pious astonishment, that so holy a man as He claimed to be, could associate with such vile, ungodly wretches. "For do we not judge," they would insinuate, "of a man by the company that he keeps? And must not a man love and practice sin who keeps company with sinners?" But how did the Lord disentangle Himself from this net that they were seeking to spread for his feet? He met their cavil thus, "Those who are whole need not a physician, but those who are sick." He appealed to their own sense and reason, and to their natural consciences. It was as though He had said, "Where should a physician be? Is it not with the sick in the hospital? Are not the sick wards his peculiar place and province, and are not diseased patients the very people he is called to associate with and take care of? Is the physician necessarily contaminated by the disease that he cures? How can he heal the sickness, if he does not visit the sick?" By thus appealing to their reason and conscience, He silenced and confounded them. Now, this is an example well worthy of our imitation.
We are sometimes thrown into the way of scoffers, and of people who will cavil even at the great foundation truths of divine revelation. With such people there is no use attempting to argue the question on spiritual grounds; for they have no spiritual ears to hear, no spiritual eyes to see, no spiritual heart to fall under the power of truth. To do so is to throw pearls before swine. If the Lord enables us, the best way is to appeal to their natural consciences; and, as shortly as possible, without entering into the details of truth, to silence them by putting before them something which they themselves cannot deny.
But the words of the text have a much higher sense than a mere appeal to natural conscience or human reason. They contain a gospel truth, far deeper and higher than reason can comprehend, and one that will last as long as the world endures. "Those who are whole need not a physician, but those who are sick."
We find, in the text, two characters spoken of, and these put in a distinct opposition to, and contrast with each other - the "whole," and the "sick." And as the two characters are distinct in themselves, so their case is distinct also; the case of the one being that he "needs not," and the case of the other that he needs "a physician." And thus, if the Lord enables me by His blessed Spirit experimentally to trace out this evening who are "the whole," and who are "the sick;" and show why the one "needs not," and why the other needs "a physician," it may be for our profit, and may also, if God so grants, be to His own glory.
I. Let us look, then, at the character pointed out in the text by the expression, "the whole." I need scarcely say, that the word naturally means a person healthy, strong, and vigorous; one untainted by sickness or disease; one in all the enjoyment of robust health, without any constitutional ailment or bodily affliction. Now it is a truth, naturally, that such people "need not a physician." They are not in circumstances to require such aid; their vigorous health, their robust constitution, their freedom from all disease, give them perfect liberty to dispense with the services of medical skill. From this comparison we may easily gather who are "the whole," in a spiritual sense. Those who have never received any wound in their conscience, who have never felt sick unto death, who have never groaned and suffered under the disease of sin.
If we look a little more closely at these characters, we shall find them divided into two grand classes - those dead in sin, and those dead in a profession. As never plagued with the sickness of sin, both of these characters may be said to be "whole."
Look, for instance, at men generally - say, those you have daily to associate with, whose conscience God has not touched with His finger. Is there any sigh, any cry, any groan, any sorrow for sin ever manifested by them? Are they not light, trifling, and frivolous; or, if settled and sober, altogether buried in the things of time and sense? Do you ever witness anything in them, that shows they have the least concern for their immortal souls? Are they not evidently dead in sin - so dead as not to have one thought for the future, one solemn feeling of eternity?
Now, however heady, high-minded, presumptuous people may despise the groans and sighs of God's sin-sick people, and the feeling acquaintance that each rightly-taught man has with his own sore, and his own grief; or whatever ridicule may be poured out upon the trials which God's children experience when the internal plague of corruption is felt, it is a solemn truth, in spite of all contempt or ridicule, that "the whole need not a physician." And it is equally true, let them speak of Christ as much as they may, that there can be no spiritual communion with the great Physician, Jehovah-rophi (the Lord, the Healer), unless there be some inward wound or sickness of soul felt, so as to make them desire healing from His blessed hands.
"The whole need not a physician;" they need no visits from Jesus, no smile from His loving countenance, no balm from His tender hands, no cure from His gracious lips. They may know from the Bible that there is such a Person as Christ, just as a healthy man may know that some celebrated physician lives in such a street; but as to any personal application to Him, any sighing at His gracious footstool, any showing before Him their sickness, any laying down their broken bones or bruised consciences at His door, they can know nothing of it, because they are "whole." Still less can they know the efficacy of His balmy blood sprinkled on their conscience; still less the spiritual experience contained in those words, "He makes sore, and binds up; he wounds, and his hands make whole" Job 5:18; "Who heals all your diseases." Psalm 103:3 And how can those who despise or ridicule all experience, know anything spiritually of Jesus? For they are "whole;" and being "whole" they "need not a physician."
Now you who make a profession, do look at this matter; it concerns your immortal souls. Did you ever feel sickness of heart and wounds in your conscience? Did you ever groan under the felt malady of sin? Did you ever apply to, and tell out your needs before the great Physician? Did you ever look to and hang upon His balmy blood as cleansing from all sin? And have you ever felt His hands dealing gently with you, binding up your wounds, and pouring into them the healing wine and oil of gospel grace?
Now, I am sure of this, if you have walked in this path, you will never ridicule the experience of God's people, stigmatize it as "corruption," and heap upon it all the contempt which enmity can devise. You will never despise the groans of God's people, if you were ever in the same situation, or if your soul ever passed through a similar experience.
Let me illustrate this by appealing to your natural feeling. Suppose that some years back you had gone through some operation, say, the amputation of a limb; and as you pass by the hospital, in which you yourself once had been, you were to hear the piercing shriek of some poor sufferer stretched on the operating table - would you ridicule and laugh at his cries? Would you not remember that you yourself once lay there in agony? Or, suppose that the Lord had afflicted you in times past with insanity, and afterwards mercifully delivered you from the asylum. But should you pass by St. Luke's, and hear the ravings and shoutings of some unhappy resident, would you laugh and jeer, or would you pity and sympathize?
So spiritually, if a man has ever known an inward wound made in his conscience by the entrance of the two-edged sword, and afterwards enjoyed health and cure, will he pour contempt on those who are walking in the same path in which he himself once traveled? Depend upon it, when a man ridicules and despises the afflictions of God's people, it is a bad sign - a black mark against him - it strongly looks as though he had never himself passed through the same experience, and had never known similar exercises.
1. No one knows anything spiritually and experimentally of soul sickness, until God the Spirit quickens him from a death in sin. Then for the first time a wound is made in his conscience by an arrow shot from the bow of the Almighty. Now spiritually, as well as naturally, when a man is groaning and languishing under a wound, will he not anxiously desire a surgeon to bind it up? Let a man meet with what is called an accident; let him fall from a ladder, or be run over by a carriage. Will not the bystanders gather together in a moment, and take him off to a hospital? And even the poor man himself, if he retains his senses, is glad to be taken there as soon as possible. But what has made the laborer, who just before was standing careless upon the scaffold, now all pale and trembling upon a stretcher, crying to be taken to the surgeon? Is it not the broken rib or fractured limb that in a moment has produced the change?
So spiritually, there was a time when the vessel of mercy ridiculed spiritual things, cared for neither heaven nor hell, nor had one pang of concern about his immortal state; but the wound came, the bones were broken, distress of mind followed, and the soul pined and languished away, fearing the "second death." But no sooner was this felt, than a Physician was wanted, one able and willing to heal. At first, perhaps, through ignorance, he looked out and sought after "physicians of no value," running here and there for ease, and not seeking only to the Lord. But, sooner or later, being baffled in all his attempts to find relief from human help, he is brought to apply to "Jehovah, who heals you" Ex 15:26; and finds there is "balm in Gilead," and a "physician there."
2. But the Lord's people are not merely wounded by the arrows of God sticking in their conscience; they have also to be led into the deep depravity of their fallen nature, the desperate wickedness of their evil heart. We may class spiritual patients under two heads - those that are wounded and need the surgeon - and those that are sick and need the physician. And generally speaking, we need the first before the second, and have to go to the surgeon before we go to the dispensary. Thus usually, we know but little of our dreadful depravity, when the Lord first takes us in hand; the fountains of the great deep are not then broken up; the desperate unbelief, enmity, rebellion, perverseness, pride, hypocrisy, uncleanness, and all the other vile corruptions of our heart are not at first opened up and brought to light.
But as the Lord leads the soul on, He opens up by degrees the desperate corruption and depravity of our nature, and unfolds the hidden evils of our heart, which before were covered from our view. It is with us as it was with the Prophet. The Lord led him into one chamber after another; and when his astonishment increased at what he saw there, He said unto him, "Turn yet again, and you shall see greater abominations than these." Ezekiel 8:15 But as the Lord leads us into a knowledge of our depravity, He makes us to feel sick at heart, and thus we come into the state of feeling described by the prophet Isaiah - "The whole head is sick, and the whole heart faint. From the sole of the foot even unto the head there is no soundness in it; but wounds, and bruises, and putrefying sores." Isaiah 1:5,6 And as we are led into a knowledge of our sinfulness, and groan under it, we feel more and more a burden of shame and sorrow on account of it; and the more deeply and daily that this is felt, the more deeply and daily do we find our need of the great Physician.
All the Lord's dealings with our souls are that He may exalt His dear Son in our hearts, that we may have all the shame, and Jesus all the glory; and therefore, all this deep and daily discovery of our depravity is eventually to bring greater glory to the Son of God. The deeper we sink into shame and guilt, under the knowledge of the depravity of our nature, the more do we seek unto, feel the power, and prize the love, blood, grace, and preciousness of the Lord Jesus. Every fresh discovery of our vile nature, when the Lord is pleased to bring the savor of Jesus' name, like the ointment poured forth, into the conscience, serves only instrumentally to increase our faith and affection towards Him; and thus the deeper we sink in self, the higher the Lord Jesus rises in our soul's admiration and adoration.
3. But to make us more and more dependent upon Jesus, the Lord, by His teachings, leads us usually into a knowledge of our backsliding and idolatrous nature. And O, what a backsliding and idolatrous heart do we carry in our bosom, and how perpetually does it make us sigh and groan! Is there anything too vile for our depraved nature not to lust after? Is there anything too base which our hearts will not imagine? Are there any puddles, which, if God left us to ourselves, we would not grovel in? As we are brought more to feel the workings of this base backsliding heart, and have the burden of it more laid upon our conscience, the more sick are we at heart, and the more is the disease felt to be in the very vitals. We sigh and groan because we are so vile - for we would be far otherwise. In our right mind, we would be in the fear of the Lord all the day long, and would never do a single thing inconsistent with the precepts of the gospel - we would never say a word that the Lord would disapprove of - would always walk in faith, hope, and love - and would continually be spiritual and heavenly-minded.
But alas, this is what we cannot attain unto. Our eye is caught by every passing vanity, our carnal minds rove after forbidden things, and our vile heart will still commit villainy. And as the conscience is made tender - and if it be not so, the fear of God is not there - and as the soul is led into a deeper acquaintance with the spirituality of God's character and the purity of His nature, and as a deeper and clearer knowledge of Jesus in all His covenant relationship is gained, the more it is felt to be an evil and bitter thing to depart from "the Fountain of living waters."
Some people seem to think many allowances ought to be made. "They have business," they say, "to attend to, and their daily occupations to follow; and they are sure they could not transact their business if their hearts were not in it, nor carry on the necessary dealings in trade, or pursue their worldly calling, if their minds were not fully in them." They argue that they could not be bustling tradesmen, nor faithful servants, were their hearts in heaven. But do they never feel guilt, and never groan and cry because they are thus buried in the world? Is there no gathering up of their heart's affections heavenward sometimes from their business? The merchant in his counting-house, the tradesman behind the counter, or the servant at his work - have they no secret, solemn moments when their hearts go up after Jesus? Are there no inward sighs and groans to the Lord, that He would bless, keep, and water their soul from time to time by the dew of His Spirit? Or can your hearts be buried in the world well near all your waking hours? Can you be as carnal and as thoughtless as the servants of Satan who are engaged in the same occupation with yourself? and never be cut to the quick at your carnality, never pour out one sigh, nor groan out your trouble before God?
I believe, from soul experience, that a backsliding heart and an idolatrous nature, is one of the greatest troubles a child of God can have. All his worldly trials, heavy as they may be, are light compared to this. That he should daily, and sometimes hourly, seek pleasure and gratification in the things of time and sense; and should perpetually turn away from all spiritual and heavenly things, gives him more trouble than all his other trials put together. But what good comes out of all this soul exercise? What spiritual profit springs from a sense of our diseased nature and depraved appetite? Such need the Physician. And the deeper they sink into soul sickness, and the more sensible they are of the plague of their hearts, the more do they prize and want to realize the healing remedies which this great and good Physician has to bestow.
4. But there is, after all, one class only of people that this great Physician admits as patients. In this metropolis, you know, there are hospitals for different diseases; and a man afflicted with one disease must not go to an infirmary intended for another. The consumptive patient must go to the hospital for diseases of the chest; the man suffering from typhus fever must be taken to the fever hospital - and the sufferer from inflamed eyes must go to the Opthalmic institution. So spiritually, the Lord's Hospital, "Christ's Hospital" - if I may use the expression without irreverence - is only for incurables; and until every other hospital refuses us admission, or turns us out as hopeless cases, the Lord does not admit us as patients. It is like a man with a fever going for admittance to the consumptive hospital. They would say, "You are not the patient for us; people with your disease are not admitted here." So spiritually, the Lord's dispensary is only for incurables, whom every other hospital rejects; and as long as we, like Asa, seek to other physicians, we are not admitted into His sick wards.
Look at the woman who had spent all her living upon physicians, and got worse instead of better. Was it not her incurable disease that instrumentally caused her to seek and find health and cure from the hem of Jesus' garment? And it is the Lord's purpose to bring all His people into the same spot of being incurable by human power or help. We may illustrate this, by supposing there were in this city a hospital for incurables. If a patient came for admittance who was not very ill, the physician would say to him, "You are not bad enough for admittance here; you are not sufficiently ill; we may make an out-patient of you; but at present there is no room for you. When the disease lays greater hold upon you, then we can admit you." And so spiritually, as long as a man has only a trifling ailment, is only slightly wounded, and the disease is not deeply spread, there is no admission for him to the benefits of Christ's blood.
Look at the leper under the law. Lev. 13 Had he not to go before the priest, whose province it was to examine "the rising, the scab, or bright spot?" And was not this one of the marks of leprosy, that it "spread much abroad in the skin," and "in sight was deeper than the skin?" But the priest was not to receive him immediately as a leper - he was to shut him up seven days, and wait until it was a clear ease of leprosy, which was known by its deepening and spreading. The leprosy was an incurable disease. So experimentally, until the disease of sin gets so desperate as to be past the help of all human skill, past our own healing, and all healing from others, we will not seek unto, and I am sure we cannot find, the great Physician. A great part, an important part of the Spirit's work, is to bring men into this state; for we read, "The Lord kills, and makes alive; he brings down to the grave, and brings up." 1 Sam 2:6,7 And what is "to kill," and "bring down to the grave," but to render a man incurable? Not that God is the author of sin - God forbid. He does not work sin in us, but discovers it as already there; and shows us what we are, by bringing light and life into the conscience; so that in His light we see, and in His life we feel, and groan over the malady of sin thus made manifest.
Now many of God's people are on the way to this free hospital; but they are not admissible yet; not deeply sunk enough into the disease yet; it has not yet laid hold of their vitals, not yet spread its deep roots into their conscience. Like the first commencement of a cancer, or of a consumption, the symptoms may be discoverable, but the disease has as yet not spread into the whole constitution. But like the two fatal diseases I have named, the felt malady of sin will spread and extend until the soul becomes incurable - and the more this is seen and experienced, the more urgently will a man seek, and the sooner will he find, the great Physician.
But O, how nature shrinks from this! What a death-blow it would be for a patient in a decline to be told that he is not bad enough yet for the consumptive hospital. The physician might say, "I see the symptoms; I mark the hectic flush, the laboring breath, the hacking cough; but you are not bad enough yet - a few weeks or months will make you admissible" What a death-blow to him. But if according to the common phrase, "you must be worse before you are better," the remedies used at this point were to be the means of healing the patient, instead of its being a death-blow from the physician, it would be the first buddings of a hope of cure.
O how the soul shrinks from going more deeply into the felt malady of sin! The little it has known of it has made it so sick and faint, that it dreads its spreading more and more, and becoming more and more incurable. But if the more deeply we sink into a knowledge of the disease, the more we prize and value the great Physician, then may we not say, "Welcome disease, welcome pain, welcome sickness, if it be but the preparation for us to receive Jesus in all His fullness and covenant characters."
III. But what are His REMEDIES? For this great Physician must suit the remedy to the malady.
1. One remedy, then, and that perhaps the only one, may be to take off a diseased limb. We may have a badly infected knee; and the only remedy is to take the limb off to keep us from dying. You may have some corruption, some lust, some besetting sin, that, like a diseased limb, is gradually draining away your spiritual health, and making such havoc with your constitution, that you must die, unless the limb be amputated, unless the idol is removed. It may be even your money, or good name, or something which you hold near and dear, and can no more willingly part with than your leg or your arm; and yet it must be amputated that your life may be saved. The skillful surgeon, we know, will not spare the patient for his crying - no his very tenderness directs him to make a deeper incision, and to wield the knife with a firmer hand. So this great Physician, in proportion to His skill and tenderness, will amputate with a firmer hand the diseased limb which is draining away our spiritual strength.
2. Or, as a part of His office as the Physician of the soul, He may have to handle our sores. How we shrink, naturally, when the surgeon puts his hand on a tender spot, and presses it to ascertain where the disease lies; and so, when the Lord puts His finger on some sore place in the conscience, some backsliding, some inconsistency, committed perhaps years ago - how the soul winces from the touch! And, I believe, could I thoroughly ransack the conscience of each living soul before me, there would be something of which you were deeply ashamed before God, some secret sin, past or present, which when the Lord puts His finger on it, and brings it under the light of His countenance, makes you wince under the pressure of His hand. But it is needful to have it pressed, that it may be probed, in order to be thoroughly healed.
How often is it with God's people, as the Lord complains, by the Prophet, "They have healed the hurt of the daughter of my people slightly." Jer 6:14 Sin has been passed over and thought little of; but the Lord, sooner or later, laying His hand on the conscience, brings it to light, and makes the soul feel the guilt and shame of it, before He manifestly pardons it.
3. But this great Physician also has balm to apply, as well as limbs to amputate, and wounds to press. What balm is this? It is that "blood which cleanses from all sin." "Behold," He says, "I will bring it health and cure, and I will cure them, and will reveal unto them the abundance of peace and truth." Jer 33:6 This is the "blood of sprinkling, that speaks better things than that of Abel;" which is the only God-appointed remedy for a guilty conscience; as the Holy Spirit testifies, "For if the blood of bulls and of goats, and the ashes of a heifer sprinkling the unclean, sanctifies to the purifying of the flesh - how much more shall the blood of Christ, who, through the eternal Spirit, offered himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?"
The Lord will not allow His people to rest upon any other remedy than this. There are many who rest in doctrines, or church membership, or consistency of life, or zealous exertions for what they consider truth; but the Lord will never let any of His own children rest upon anything except an experimental knowledge of "the blood of sprinkling" - the precious blood of the Son of God. And if a man can rest upon anything else but this, it shows that God the Spirit has not yet taught him either his malady, or the only remedy provided for sin-sick souls.
Those, then, "who are sick" need a Physician. It is not with them a matter of speculation. I might read in the "Court Guide" the names and residences of all the physicians in the metropolis; but that would not profit me if I were laboring under disease. So men may read in the Bible of the offices and titles of Christ, of the healing virtue of His blood, the justifying power of His righteousness, and the saving efficacy of His intercession; but it is applying to and receiving benefit from His healing hands which can alone endear Him to us as the great Physician.
A man may pass by a pharmacist's shop, and see the bottles of medicine in the window, may read the labels, and even theoretically know their use - but having recourse to the remedies will alone profit one in sick circumstances, or afflicted with bodily disease. And so spiritually - whenever soul sickness is opened up in our conscience, and whenever the malady is felt and groaned under, there will be a needing of the great Physician. Who and what Jesus is will be no barren speculation then. His Person will not be a mere doctrine floating in the brain - His blood will not be a mere theory - His righteousness not merely an article of doctrine - and His dying love not merely a dogma in a sound Calvinistic creed. There will be something deeper, something more abiding, something more powerful than names, notions, and theories to the sin-sick soul; and the more it needs the Physician, the more it will apply to Him.
This blessed Physician heals "without money and without price;" He never demands a fee for His wondrous cures; nor did He ever turn away one who lay languishing at His door, who felt his sickness, or pined at His feet for a manifestation of His healing blood applied to his conscience with almighty power. All His covenant characters, all the sympathizing tenderness of His bosom, all His almighty power, all His everlasting love, all that He is and has as God-Man, are all enlisted on behalf of His poor and needy family.
You are languishing, say, under sickness of soul, and feel the plague of a wretched heart, a depraved nature, a vile body of sin and death, and a corrupt imagination. You are afflicted with every disease. You have palsy, to weaken all your powers; you have consumption, to drain your very vitals; you have fever, quickening your pulse after evil and inflaming your base lusts; you have lethargy, so that you cannot move forward a step in the Lord's way. Your heart is diseased; your appetite depraved; your knees are faint; and your hands hang down. In fact, there is scarcely a disease known to the physician, of which we have not spiritually the anti-type in our vile nature; with this striking difference, that we do not usually suffer in our body from more than one disease at a time, but in our soul we suffer from all.
But, you say, your malady is such as none but yourself have experienced. Yet does it not say, "The whole head is sick, and the whole heart faint?" and surely that includes every disease; for if the whole "head" and "heart," all the intellectual powers of the one, and all the feelings and affections of the other, are sick and faint, that surely must include all.
Why should you, then, perish from your diseases? Is it for lack of power in the great Physician? Is it for lack of will? Does not He combine in Himself these two qualifications? "O," say you, "I believe He has the power, for my conscience has received the truth, that He is God as well as man; but I dare not say He has the will." He has the will, for He has made you willing to be cured; and if you are willing to be cured, you are one of His people; for this is one of their characters, "Your people shall be willing in the day of your power." Psalm 110:3 Well then, He has both power and will, and has in the exercise of both, healed thousands of diseases and thousands of patients, and never turned away one that came unto Him.
Then, why despair, sin-sick soul? "Because my heart is so corrupt," you reply; "because my imagination is so depraved, my will so rebellious, my affections so earthly, and my nature such a sink of sin." It is so; far deeper than you or I can know, far worse than you or I can feel. It is so. But shall that be a reason why you should die in your sickness? It is rather the very reason why you should hope.
Now, if you were "whole;" if you had no sickness; no pain, no ailment, no languishing, no pining away, no nightly groans, no daily sighs, you would not need a Physician; you would be whole-hearted, and could do without Jesus. This is your very mercy, that you feel your sickness and disease; and that it is incurable by all that you have yet done, or think of doing. This very incurability is the very reason that makes you a fit patient for this great Physician. The Lord sees in all His people this incurability; His eye is upon them all for good; His heart overflows with love and compassion; and, if I may use the expression, He tenderly desires to stretch out His hand to heal.
Let me ask you two questions. Search the records of the New Testament. Look at the acts of Jesus.
1. Did you ever know a patient to be sent away uncured?
2. Did you ever know any saved but an incurable?
Did not the Lord give eyes to some that were born blind? Were not they incurable? Did He not unstop the ears and loose the tongue of those who were deaf and mute? Were they not incurable? Did He not heal the woman of her disease, who had suffered so many years? Was not she incurable? Did He not heal the man at the pool of Bethesda? Was not he incurable? Did He not heal the ten lepers? And were not they incurable? Can you find any disease which He healed that was not incurable? If they were not incurable, would not His power have fallen short in point of manifestation? Would not His numerous enemies have said, it was all collusion, or deception?
And can you find that He anywhere said to those diseased sufferers who cast themselves at His feet, that they were first to do something for themselves, and begin the cure which He would then complete? Or can you find that any were sent away, without being made perfectly whole? He healed all their maladies in a moment, by one glance of His eye, one touch of His hand. Has His power ceased? Does not the same compassionate heart beat in His bosom? Is He not, still "mighty to save?" "God over all, blessed forever?" And will He disappoint any poor soul now whom He has made to feel his own sickness and his own sore? He cannot do it; He would deny Himself if He did; and "He cannot deny Himself," for "He abides faithful."
But how many of God's poor needy children have many years of sickness to pass over their head before they feel the balm of His atoning blood on their conscience! And why is this? That they may become more incurable, (if I may use such an expression), and sink deeper and deeper into the sense and feeling that they cannot cure, comfort, bless, or save their own souls. And when they at length are brought here, the Lord will appear for them, that they may know His power, and that He alone may have all the glory.
Thus, while he sends away all the "whole," and does not give them a look; He bestows His compassion and love on those that who "sick." And all to redound to the glory of Jehovah, who, as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, three Persons in one undivided Godhead, deserves the praise, adoration, and thanksgiving of His redeemed and justified church now and forever.

Höstfrölöpare (Harpalus autumnalis) är en art i insektsordningen skalbaggar som hör till familjen jordlöpare.

Kännetecken
Höstfrölöparen har en kroppslängd på 7,5 till 9,5 millimeter. Dess kroppsform är jämnbred och som hos många andra jordlöpare ganska platt för att skalbaggen lätt ska kunna gömma sig i smala springor mellan stenar och liknande. Färgen på kroppen är övervägande svartbrun, med ljusare gulbruna antenner och ben.

Utbredning
Höstfrölöparen huvudsakliga utbredningsområde är mellersta Europa, så långt österut som till Ural och söderut till Balkan. I Norden är den endast känd från ett enda område i Skåne, nära Löderup, med en yta mindre än 10 kvadratkilometer.

Status
I Sverige är höstfrölöparen klassad som akut hotad. De största hoten mot arten är dess mycket begränsade utbredning och isolerade, individfattiga population. Detta eftersom det gör att även slumpartade, tillfälliga störningar kan påverka arten väldigt negativt. Ett annat hot är igenväxning av dess livsmiljö.

Levnadssätt
Höstfrölöparen har som andra skalbaggar  fullständig förvandling och genomgår utvecklingsstadierna ägg, larv, puppa och imago. Från mellersta Europa uppges larvens utveckling ske under sommaren och arten övervintrar där som fullbildad insekt. I Sverige är höstfrölöparens livscykel inte lika säkert känd.

Abstract: This article describes a free service that allows blind and visually impaired people to have printed documents read to them over the telephone.
ReadThisToMe is a free reading service for blind and low-vision people, powered by volunteers and Internet collaboration.
The client faxes the document to be read to the ReadThisToMe toll-free fax number: 1-877-333-8848. The first page of the fax needs to be a cover page that includes the client's first name and callback (voice) phone number. The document itself can be just about anything: a handwritten letter, a bill, a can of food, a multi-page magazine article -- just about anything that can be faxed.
One of ReadThisToMe's volunteer readers will call the client back—usually within an hour—and read the document.
The service is available throughout the U.S. and Canada and is absolutely free (though donations are gladly accepted).
ReadThisToMe needs more volunteer readers: all volunteers need are a few minutes a day and willingness to make a long-distance phone call. More info about volunteering.
The service was created and is maintained by Savetz Publishing. Businesses that wish to help sponsor ReadThisToMe can send e-mail to info @ readthistome.org . Sponsors and other friends of Read This To Me are listed here.


We're deep into the age of seemingly ubiquitous surveillance and law enforcement. Security systems record our every move in public. Red-light cameras rightfully snag those who interpret the yellow light as a signal to speed up rather than slow down, but the tell-tale flash of a speed camera—arguably more of a revenue-enhancer than a true safety tool—makes drivers' toes curl more often than many would like to admit. Even something as benign as electronic toll collection suddenly acquires an oppressive Big Brother vibe when you accidentally find yourself in the wrong lane without a transponder and you receive a stern, extraordinarily-detailed letter with the date and time of your infraction and a photo of your license plate alongside notice of a fine a few weeks later. Can't just let that one slide, huh, E-ZPass?
So with all that in mind, do we really need armies of robotic police out ready to ensnare us after every conceivable transgression? Ford seems to think so. The carmaker filed a patent—published last month and uncovered by Motor1—for an autonomous police car capable of finding its own great places to hide, rocketing off in hot pursuit of all those who thumb their noses at Johnny Law, and issuing citations on the fly. It would be terrifically cool....if not for that fact that it's going to be actually hunting all of us down like hapless sheep falling prey to whatever horrifying creature Skynet will build once it raids Boston Dynamics.
Nevertheless, the idea was inevitable. And while the initial reaction may of course be a resounding, Lana Kane-esque noooooooope from the already-relentlessly-hounded-and-spied-upon masses, there will be some tangible benefits to just such a system.
"Automating traffic stops would certainly have both advantages and disadvantages," says autonomy researcher Bryant Walker Smith, an assistant professor in the School of Law and the School of Engineering at the University of South Carolina. "It could reduce safety risks for both officers and motorists." It's also a potential force-multiplier for overwhelmed police departments, allowing police to pursue more urgent matters while the robots monitor speeders—something that's basically already happening, courtesy of camera-based traffic monitors.
Of course, robo-cop cars could also start eliminating police jobs in the process, which won't sit particularly well with anyone. (At least, nobody carbon-based.) Indeed, experts quickly began throwing up more yellow lights than greens for Ford's idea—even beyond the employment-related issues.
Likewise, one 27-year law-enforcement veteran describes the idea as "somewhat concerning" from a police-community relationship perspective.
Acken adds that the while the idea of an autonomous police car negates any potential form of officer bias that might be in play when deciding who to stop and where enforcement activities occur, it also removes the ability to exercise any form of discretion or empathy during these encounters.
Admittedly, this speculation is about as premature as you can get, and there are no guidelines anywhere just yet about how such systems would actually work. For instance, would robo-cop cars just run your license, or could they call in the human cavalry if you're being willfully reckless? Do they shoot you a text as you're driving to alert you that you've been cited? Will they follow you until you slow down? Can they take measures to actually stop your vehicle? And who will hold the reins on these systems as their capabilities escalate? It's a question that goes far beyond just the idea of autonomous squad cars.
"In the future, the placement of all kinds of inward and outward facing sensors on motor vehicles, aerial drones, and infrastructure, plus the connection of these sensors to the cloud, will enable far more aggressive public and private enforcement of all kinds," Smith says.
But this all may wind up being a tempest in a teapot. Smith adds that he's skeptical Ford's idea even satisfies the patentability requirements pertaining to novelty and non-obviousness in the first place—though all that means is that Chevy, Dodge, and everyone else can start cranking out robotic squad cars, too. It may also just be a temporary blip on the road to full autonomy. After all, once the rest of the cars on the road are driving themselves, there won't be much for these bored bots to do. It will, however, be awfully entertaining the first time an empty squad car pulls over an empty passenger car just because one of them had a glitch somewhere in their autonomous operating systems that caused them to a) break the law or b) go rogue. That, too, seems as inevitable as the arrival of a RoboCop itself.
But is it really a police car without any police on board?
Robots aren't here to just take your job—they can help you endure it, too.
Autonomous cars still have a long way to go.
The truck drove 2,400 miles with minimal human intervention.
We're doomed. We. Are. Doomed.

Q: I didn't success to call a servlet inside another servlet I have servlet A where there is this code :
protected void doPost(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
        throws ServletException, IOException {

    RequestDispatcher rd = request.getRequestDispatcher("gestion-avis");
    rd.forward(request, response);

}

And then another servlet B which refers to "gestion-avis" :
@WebServlet("/gestion-avis")
public class GestionAvisServlet extends HttpServlet

The code of the A servlet normally redirect to the doGet method of the servlet B.
But this redirect me to an empty html page called "gestion-avis".
Thank you for your help !

A: This could be the reason for your issue.
Since you are forwarding request to another servlet mapped at url gestion-avis, the request goes to your GestionAvisServlet and its doGet method.
Now if your GestionAvisServlet.doGet method is not writing any data to HttpServletResponse, you will get a blank screen.
So to see some data either you need to write data to HttpServletResponse like this:
public void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
            throws IOException {
        response.getWriter().println("Hello");
 }

Otherwise you can forward to another page.

The most complete manuscript of Hrotsvit's writings, Bavarian State Library Clm 14485 (the Munich codex), includes prefaces, dedications, and other addresses to readers in which Hrotsvit names herself and provides information about her education, writing practices, and purposes. If this manuscript had not survived, we might have some of her plays and poems extant in other manuscripts, but we would know little or nothing about Hrotsvit, and we would likely not be able to imagine that such a scholar and writer could have existed. By naming and identifying herself as an author and addressing readers in the first-person, not only in the prefatory texts but also within the poems, Hrotsvit presents herself as an important actor throughout the manuscript and creates significant parallels between her actions and those of the characters in her poems and plays. She also invites readers to see parallels between herself, her characters, Christ's apostles, and John the Baptizer. Furthermore, in the world created by Hrotsvit's writings, all words and actions are always relevant to one of the main themes of her poems and plays: conversion. Readers, writers, and characters in her writing have two choices (which in a sense is one choice): they can turn toward God and be saved by grace, or they can turn away from God. Some, like the apostles, choose in response to Christ's mandate; others, like John the Baptizer, are pre-cursors of Christ. For all, whether already Christian or pagan, conversion involves the Augustinian "turning" of the mind and will toward God. And all have a shared responsibility not only to welcome grace "as a free gift that elevates us to a new and unmerited level of existence" but also to use their God-given talents to contribute to the redemption of the world.

Rainbow Riders has never had the financial resources to fully develop its 14-acre site. With your help Raise It Up will change all that. The vision calls for more paddocks to take better care of Rainbow Riders' loyal horses and to facilitate outdoor training. Increases in traffic have made it too risky to access trails on the opposite side or Mount Scio Road, restricting activities to the riding arena. Raise It Up will see riding trails carved into wooded areas on the property and a perimeter trail built. Paved perimeter walkways circling the barn, learning centre and riding arena will mean complete wheelchair access. That means more outdoor time for kids who never get enough!

Diane Haithman is contributing to Deadline's TV coverage.
At today's TCA panel on Showtime's Homeland, co-creator and executive producer Howard Gordon was asked about another on-again, off-again project: Whether there is still a chance of a 24 movie. He says yes — possibly. "My understanding of that is, having gone quiet in a way that I didn't think boded well for that, there's been some stirrings recently, so I think it's something everyone's gunning for," said Gordon, also an executive producer of 24. "As far as whether my work on [Homeland] will impede that — not at all. There's a script that's been written, and I think the issues now are more about the director's schedule and Kiefer's [Sutherland] schedule."

After the panel, which also included executive producer Alex Gansa and series stars Claire Danes, Damian Lewis and Morena Baccarin, Gordon also had a comment about the failure of the NBC series Awake, on which he was also an executive producer. "I knew it was a very steep challenge," he said.
But back to Homeland, whose new season will open with two episodes shot in large part in Israel, standing in for Beirut. Aside from questions about the development of the lead characters, questions arose about whether Danes' pregnancy would affect production. "We're about midway (through Season 2), we're shooting Episode 6; this hasn't run into any interference," Danes said. She added that the physicality of her role had her a "little concerned" at first, but "it's proven to be a non-issue. All is well and Carrie remains fervently nonpregnant."

Q: GNU Make can never find perl? I sometimes get this error when compiling a program:
make[1]: /usr/bin/perl: Command not found
make[1]: *** [links] Error 127

This happens with any program that requires perl to compile, such as openssl and automake. However:
sh-2.05b# perl -v

This is perl, v5.10.0 DEVEL34342 built for arm-linux-thread-multi
(with 1 registered patch, see perl -V for more detail)

sh-2.05b# /usr/bin/perl -v

This is perl, v5.10.0 DEVEL34342 built for arm-linux-thread-multi
(with 1 registered patch, see perl -V for more detail)

I definitely have perl installed. What's going on?

A: If this is reproducible, run the make command with strace -f, to see unambiguously which command is attempting (and failing) to exec.
I can recall from my own experience the following two situations in which an exec-family might fail on Linux with ENOENT despite that the command is actually there:

*

*The .interp referred to by the binary isn't present (example: the LSB-compatible binary refers to /lib/ld-lsb.so.3 instead of the usual /lib/ld-linux.so.2, and LSB compatibility packages haven't been installed on the Linux machine).  Seems unlikely in your scenario :)

*Some kernel-level non-standard security mechanism is in place which is blocking execution of the binary - especially on locked-down embedded devices.  One would think EACCES would be the more logical errno in this case, but maybe ENOENT is used to prevent leaking information about the existence of binaries to unprivileged processes.

Government wants to change parliamentary rules to help Kammenos
The change would allow the leader of a party with fewer than five MPs to retain the same privileges he or she did when they led a recognised group.
According to Greek Parliamentary rules, for a political party to be recognised as a parliamentary group it must have five MPs elected on its ticket. Now, SYRIZA is mulling a change to parliamentary rules that would allow the leader of a party with fewer than five MPs to retain the same privileges he or she did when they led a recognised group.
The change directly affects the government's former junior coalition partner, Independent Greeks leader Panos Kammenos, who is about to lose his fifth MP, Thanasis Papachristopoulos, who intends to declare himself independent and possibly run on SYRIZA's ticket.
In an unusual move, Parliament Speaker Nikos Voutsis asked Papachristopoulos to remain an Independent Greeks MP for five more days in order to back ratication of the Nato protocol permitting the newly renamed Republic of North Macedonia to enter Nato. The MP has complied with that request.
Such a change would also apply to To Potami party leader Stavros Theodorakis, whose parliamentary group was dissolved when MPs defected from the party, but he declared that he does not wish to avail himself of the new parliamentary rule if it is passed as a matter of principle.
The prospective change will be discussed on 4 February by the Committee on Parliamentary Rules.
SYRIZA is expected to table the proposed revision at that meeting, which will be held as usual in the parliament speaker's office.
Parliament Speaker Nikos Voutsis will introduce the proposal that will allow both Theodorakis and Kammenos to maintain their privileges, including when and for how long they can address Parliament. The revision would also determine other practical and institutional rights, including payment of the party leaders' staff salaries and the number of policemen in their security detail.
The new rule will clearly provide that all party leaders whose party entered parliament through a general election will maintain their privileges regardless of whether they have five MPs.
Another issue the committee will examine is introducing a new rule that would provide that MPs who choose to jump to another parliamentary group will be counted as "regular members" of their new parliamentary group so that the former group will not be dissolved, an eventuality with which the Independent Greeks are now confronted.

Der Mercedes-AMG F1 W08 EQ Power+ ist der Formel-1-Rennwagen von Mercedes für die Formel-1-Weltmeisterschaft 2017. Er ist der neunte Formel-1-Rennwagen von Mercedes. Er wurde am 23. Februar 2017 in Silverstone präsentiert.

Bei diesem Fahrzeug verwendet Mercedes als Zusatz zur bisherigen Fahrzeugbenennung erstmals den Namen seiner neuen Marke für Elektromobilität, EQ (als Abkürzung für Electric Intelligence). EQ Power sollen alle zukünftigen Plug-in-Hybrid-Fahrzeuge von Mercedes-Benz heißen.

Technik und Entwicklung
Wie alle Formel-1-Fahrzeuge des Jahres 2017 ist der W08 EQ Power+ ein hinterradangetriebener Monoposto mit einem Monocoque aus kohlenstofffaserverstärktem Kunststoff (CFK). Neben dem Monocoque bestehen viele weitere Teile des Fahrzeugs, darunter die Karosserieteile und das Lenkrad aus CFK. Auch die Bremsscheiben sind aus einem hitzebeständigen kohlenstofffaserverstärktem Verbundmaterial.

Der W08 EQ Power+ ist das Nachfolgemodell des Mercedes F1 W07 Hybrid. Da sich das technische Reglement zur Saison 2017 stark änderte, ist das Fahrzeug größtenteils eine Neuentwicklung. Um hierfür Ressourcen zur Verfügung zu haben, wurde die Weiterentwicklung des Vorgängermodells frühzeitig eingestellt.

Mit einer Gesamtbreite von 2000 mm und einer Breite zwischen Vorder- und Hinterachse von 1600 mm ist das Fahrzeug jeweils 200 mm breiter als das Vorgängermodell. Die Höhe ist mit 950 mm unverändert. Komplett neu sind neben dem Frontflügel, der statt 1650 mm nun 1800 mm breit ist, und dem Heckflügel, dessen Breite sich von 750 mm auf 950 mm und dessen Höhe sich von 950 mm auf 800 mm ändert, auch der Diffusor, der nun eine Gesamthöhe von 175 mm statt 125 mm sowie eine um 50 mm erhöhte Breite von 1050 mm hat. Das Fahrzeug hat mit 3760 mm den längsten Radstand aller Formel-1-Wagen der Saison 2017.

Bei den Testfahrten vor der Saison war das Fahrzeug teilweise mit einer auffälligen Finne an der Motorabdeckung unterwegs, darüber hinaus wurde mehrfach ein zusätzlicher Flügel an der Motorabdeckung verwendet, der den Luftstrom zum Heckflügel optimieren soll. Mercedes testete als einziges Team einen Flügel, der an einen Doppeldecker erinnerte. Dieser Flügel war auch beim Saisonauftakt in Australien am W08 EQ Power+ vorhanden und wurde dort sogar um ein drittes, kleineres Flügelelement ergänzt.

Angetrieben wird der W08 EQ Power+ vom Mercedes-AMG F1 M08 EQ Power+, einem in Fahrzeugmitte montierten 1,6-Liter-V6-Motor von Mercedes mit einem Turbolader sowie einem 120 kW starken Elektromotor, es ist also ein Hybridelektrokraftfahrzeug. Das sequentielle Getriebe des Wagens hat acht Gänge. Der Gangwechsel wird über Schaltwippen am Lenkrad ausgelöst. Das Fahrzeug hat nur zwei Pedale, ein Gaspedal (rechts) und ein Bremspedal (links). Genau wie viele andere Funktionen wird die Kupplung, die nur beim Anfahren aus dem Stand verwendet wird, über einen Hebel am Lenkrad bedient.

Anders als das Vorgängermodell, ist der W08 EQ Power+ mit 305 mm breiten Vorderreifen und mit 405 mm breiten Hinterreifen des Einheitslieferanten Pirelli ausgestattet, die auf 13-Zoll-Rädern von OZ Racing montiert sind. Damit sind die Reifen an der Vorderachse 60 mm und an der Hinterachse 80 mm breiter als in der Vorsaison. Dies erforderte auch die Entwicklung von neuen Radaufhängungen beim W08 EQ Power+.

Der W08 EQ Power+ hat, wie alle Formel-1-Fahrzeuge seit 2011, ein Drag Reduction System (DRS), das durch Flachstellen eines Teils des Heckflügels den Luftwiderstand des Fahrzeugs auf den Geraden verringert, wenn es eingesetzt werden darf. Auch das DRS wird mit einem Schalter am Lenkrad des Wagens aktiviert.

Im Zuge des Großen Preises von Australien wurde bekannt, dass das Fahrzeug 733 kg wiegt und damit fünf Kilogramm über dem Mindestgewicht liegt, was auf dem Albert Park Circuit einen Zeitverlust von rund 0,2 Sekunden pro Runde bedeutete.

Lackierung und Sponsoring
Der W08 EQ Power+ ist in Anlehnung an die Mercedes-Silberpfeile überwiegend in Silber lackiert, zusätzlich gibt es wegen des Hauptsponsors Petronas cyanfarbene und schwarze Akzente.

Es werben neben der Daimler AG (mit der Marke Mercedes-AMG) und Petronas auch Epson, Hugo Boss, Pirelli, Qualcomm und Wihuri auf dem Fahrzeug.

Fahrer
Mercedes trat in der Saison 2017 mit den Fahrern Valtteri Bottas und Lewis Hamilton an. Bottas wechselte von Williams zu Mercedes und ersetzt den nach der Vorsaison zurückgetretenen Nico Rosberg, Hamilton bestritt seine fünfte Saison für das Team.

Jon's first solo outing was a very successful one, featuring the hit #1 song "Blaze of Glory" (which won a Golden Globe and received Academy Award & Grammy nominations) and the album achieved double platinum status. "Miracle" was a minor hit, getting to #12 on the singles chart.
The story goes that initially, Young Guns II star Emilio Estevez was seeking Bon Jovi's "Wanted Dead Or Alive" but Jon declined allowing the use of it because he didn't think the song fit the movie, but he was inspired to write original pieces for the film and its soundtrack and thus, the Young Guns II soundtrack doubled as Jon's 1st solo release.
It's no surprise Jon was hyped about writing a bunch of cowboy rock ballads because Bon Jovi had already been doing it for years with songs like "Wanted Dead Or Alive", "Stick To Your Guns" and "Ride Cowboy Ride" (and later, "Good Guys Don't Always Wear White" for The Cowboy Way soundtrack). The album, written solely by Jon, is basically more of the same and that's to say it's an enjoyable album. It doesn't stand next to the band's best, but it's still a solid release and way better than his second solo release, 1997's Destination Anywhere.
Back in the day, when "Blaze of Glory" was a hit on the radio, I used to think it was a Bon Jovi song and not a Jon Bon Jovi song. It's become synonymous with the band though because there's really no difference in sound and it was included on the band's 1994 greatest hits compilation Cross Road and has been performed in concert over the years.
For this effort, Jon assembled an impressive lineup of guest musicians including Elton John, Jeff Beck, Little Richard, Ratt's Robbin Crosby and then Bon Jovi pet project Aldo Nova!


With the Nordic Nomad chair by Bjarke Frederiksen, the required accessories for a day hike or picnic are all conveniently wrapped up into one hip travel pack. It was inspired by the roaming tribes of the frozen kingdom.
The Nordic Nomad chair comes with six interlocking wooden pieces that can be easily rearranged, so transforming from chair to backpack isn't a timely endeavor. The use of a subtle gray tone and beige create a vintage appeal that resonates with the image of the lonely wanderer, exploring uncharted territories, toting around the bare essentials.

History Of Addiction Treatment
How Addiction Came to be Recognized as a Treatable Illness
Origins of Addiction Treatment
portalhi | March 3, 2017
Addiction treatment is something that has been around for quite some time. We depend on addiction treatment to help those who are struggling with addiction and substance abuse get back to sobriety, but few of us know when, why and how addiction treatment began.
Addiction treatment in North America emerged in its earliest forms between the the year 1750 and 1800 to address the problem of alcoholism. Some of the earliest efforts were focused on Native American communities, both from within the communities and from outside of them. This is also the time in history when the first academic literature began to appear on alcoholism and, interestingly, even that long ago there were medical professionals who classified addiction as more of a disease than a character flaw.
In the early 1800s, the first signs of mutual aid societies and recovery establishments were created. Still focused on alcoholism, the first ever mutual aid society was called The Washington Society and held more than half a million members. Recovery establishments were called "inebriate homes" and emerged slowly at first.
In the latter part of the 1800s, inebriate asylums began to open in order to contain problem drinkers. However, they also became the first institutions to treat addictions to other substances, such as cocaine and opiates. Around the same time, Christian based inebriate mutual aid society homes and missions flourished and became gender specific.
But it was not until 1879 that the first private, for-profit institution for addiction treatment opened. This began a trend that gradually shut down inebriate hospitals, asylums and homes, forcing alcoholics into police custody if they could not afford private treatment. Privatization is still presently the current status of most forms of addiction treatment in North America. There is government funding for some forms of addiction treatment, but it is seldom enough to provide effective addiction treatment to people. Typically, government funded rehabs are over-crowded, understaffed and inattentive to the needs of its clients. The best form of addiction treatment available in North America is private addiction treatment.
Methodologies of Addiction Treatment
portalhi | March 3, 2017 March 3, 2017
In the United States and Canada, a number of different approaches to addiction treatment have been made in recent history. There is no cure for addiction, so its various treatments come from different theoretical backgrounds. Some have proven impressively successful while others have fallen out of credibility.
Well known psychologist Carl Rogers was responsible for the client centered methods, which were known for empowering the addicted client to define the objectives of their treatment. The success that this method saw was partly attributed to the therapeutic and encouraging relationship that the counselor provided to the client.
One of the oldest and most successful models of addiction treatment is the disease model. In labeling and defining addiction as a biological disease that is worsened by behavioral, emotional and environmental factors, a unique approach to the condition is formed. By admitting to one's own powerlessness to end an addiction, they declare their dependence on a higher power and a strong support system to resist their addiction.
Sigmund Freud offered us a psychoanalytical approach to addiction, which is seldom regarded as a useful approach to addiction treatment. As many of Freud's theories do, the psychoanalytic theory of addiction gets back to sex. According to Freud, addiction stems from sexual tension and the desire to express sexuality and homosexuality. This approach became irrelevant because modern psychology does not acknowledge the necessity of human sexuality to addiction.
The regulation of emotion has proven to be an important conversation to have within the addiction treatment world. Many addicts have been found to abuse substances as an unconscious way of warding off negative feelings, physical or emotional, such as withdrawal symptoms or negative moods. If the addict can learn to identify and control the negative feelings that make them abuse a substance, they statistically have a higher chance at recovering.
And lastly, cognitive methods of addiction treatment revolve around the addicted individual's ability to cognitively recognize what their own behavior and thought patterns are and cognitively manipulate them. The cognitive behavioral approach to addiction treatment is one of the prominent tools of private addiction counseling.
If you are an American or Canadian struggling with addiction, reach out for help today. If your addiction is to a substance, you may need a detoxification, which you can find in many locations across both countries, such as a New York detox center or a Calgary drug detox. Rehabilitation will be the next step, and you will be able to choose from rehabs in California, Florida, British Columbia and more. DO not hesitate to receive the treatment you need!
Modern Addiction Treatment
The present day's addiction treatment methods are focused on private rehabilitation and counseling. There have been many approaches to treating addiction in North America over time, but none have been more successful than private rehabilitation and counseling, which is the primary method relied upon to treat addiction. It comes with a significant price tag, but the award is the highest quality treatment that money can buy. The superior funding and resources of private rehabs is the key to their success.
Privatized rehabilitation facilities first emerged in the latter part of the 1800's and continue to thrive today. The treatment methods in the 1800's would be considered quackery by today's standards, but presently, there is an impressive amount of research and modern methodologies that are found in the treatment programs of private rehabs. The larger operating budget of a private rehab allows the owners and facilitators access to the most current treatment material, methods and body of knowledge. It is also able to provide basic necessities of successful mental health monitoring, such as more staff members than clients and private counseling services. Private rehab services are firmly established in modern addiction treatment and are here to stay.
Private counseling is another common modern solution to addiction problems. Intensive psychoanalytic counseling and cognitive behavioral therapy are regarded as several prominent methods of healing addiction problems. The severity of the addiction typically indicates whether a person should seek rehabilitation or just counseling. Counseling is regarded as a successful measure for addictions that are less severe, or for addicts who have already been through rehabilitation and are receiving aftercare counseling. Addiction counseling is also a huge element to rehabilitation.
The field of addiction treatment has seen many methods come and go, but the ones that have remained strong are those that took their methodologies to the private sector. It could be that addiction treatment was too heavily affected by capitalistic ventures, but there is no arguing over the success rate of privatized addiction treatment.
Benefits of Addiction Treatment
The benefits of intensive addiction treatment are very substantial. There is a reason why it is the most recommended way of healing from addiction and substance abuse. No other method of recovery has proven quite as effective as the inpatient residential rehabilitation model. This is for a number of reasons, including substantial operating budgets, access to current resources, more staff than clients and individual counseling. Those who have attended private residential rehabilitation have exhibited the highest success rates of any form of addiction treatment because of the resources the rehab has access to.
Individual counseling is a particularly important aspect of private rehabilitation that is frequently not offered through government-funded rehab. Individual counseling is considered to be very imperative to addiction recovery because it is the most reliable way of discovering the underlying causes of addiction. Someone who is not a licensed private counselor is very likely to misguide a recovering addict through the exploration of their thought and behavioral patterns. This is why the services of a private counselor are invaluable during rehabilitation.
The presence of more staff members is also very important to the client's security. When there are not enough staff members available to the client, they are forced to compete for the staff member's attention and for their needs to be met. This can result in many potential building blocks to the individual's mental health slipping through cracks and not being noticed. It is far more effective to have an adequate number of staff members available to the clients so a greater awareness of their needs is acquired.
And lastly, private addiction treatment also offers better recreation and diet options to its clients. Because of the higher operating budget of a private rehab, it is able to afford its clients gym memberships, recreational equipment such as kayaks or snow shoes and a good quality menu. Upper end rehabs even have features such as private gyms, game rooms, saunas and jacuzzis. For a worthwhile addiction treatment experience, consider residential rehabilitation.

U.S.-China surge made 2014 a banner year for wind power — report
Source: Daniel Cusick, E&E reporter • Posted: Monday, January 26, 2015
U.S. wind power developers, racing against the year-end expiration of the federal production tax credit, worked at breakneck speed to install 4.7 gigawatts of wind power capacity in 2014, according to new figures released yesterday by Bloomberg New Energy Finance.
The increased pace of development resulted in a 600 percent increase in U.S. installations over 2013 and solidified the United States' status as the second-largest global wind energy market behind China, BNEF researchers found.
China also saw record-breaking wind energy development in 2014, with 20.7 GW of newly installed capacity. That's more than 40 percent of the entire world's new installations for the year, according to BNEF. China's total grid-connected wind power capacity at year's end was 96 GW, making its wind power sector larger than the entire power generation system of the United Kingdom.
In comparison, the United States as of last October had roughly 62.3 GW of installed capacity, according to figures from the American Wind Energy Association (ClimateWire, Oct. 22, 2014). AWEA will make public its fourth-quarter 2014 and annual performance data next week. A spokesman for the organization said officials will comment on the U.S. sector's 2014 performance then.
The U.S. industry's largest growth year was 2012, when wind power developers added 13.1 GW of new capacity. But legislative uncertainty about the PTC in the second half of 2012 effectively emptied the development pipeline for the first half of 2013. As a result, the industry added just over 1 GW of capacity for the entire year, its smallest annual growth in a decade, according to AWEA figures.
According to Bloomberg's analysis, the next three largest markets for wind energy in 2014 after China and the United States were Germany, Brazil and India. Germany and Brazil also set new records for new wind power installations last year, at 3.2 and 2.9 GW, respectively, according to BNEF.
Policy shifts drive growth
Collectively, investment in wind energy for 2014 increased 11 percent over the previous year to a record $99.5 billion, BNEF said in earlier report on clean energy investment (ClimateWire, Jan. 9).
China, however, remained the big story for wind power in 2014, with single-year additions trumping the entire wind energy capacities of many other countries, according to BNEF. Yet even with last year's surge, wind power remains China's third-largest source of electricity, behind coal and hydropower, the analysis found.
Yiyi Zhou, China wind analyst for BNEF, said that most of the new turbines built in 2014 came from China's leading domestic suppliers — Goldwind, Guodian United Power, Envision, Ming Yang and Sewind. Foreign manufacturers, by contrast, accounted for less than 2 percent of China's new installations.
As in the United States, China's surge in wind power development was driven by firms "rushing to complete projects ahead of the looming feed-in-tariff cut," Zhou said. Policy shifts also drove Germany's pace of development, according to BNEF, as developers took advantage of a grace period in the outgoing support system that is being replaced by a stricter system of supports.
In the United States, much of the industry's focus has been on securing a long-term reauthorization of the PTC, which provides a 2.3-cent-per-kilowatt-hours tax break to wind energy developers. That PTC has been instrumental in driving growth in U.S. wind power, but it has also been targeted by congressional Republicans as an expendable subsidy.
U.S. still beats China in turbine efficiency
The U.S. industry has also recently pressed the idea that while China may have more wind turbines operating, wind farms in the United States are more efficient than those in many other countries, including China, Germany and Spain.
An analysis by AWEA, for example, shows that U.S. turbines are nearly twice as productive as those in China. An average-sized 2-megawatt turbine in the United States, for example, generates roughly 5,700 megawatt-hours of electricity in a year, compared to 3,300 MWh for a similar-sized Chinese turbine.
"Utility-scale wind was invented in America, and we do it best," AWEA said in a recent blog post comparing U.S. wind energy production to that of other countries.
AWEA officials attribute the higher ratings to more advanced rotor and blade technologies being used in the United States, more precise siting of turbines to maximize energy output and lower downtime due to maintenance issues.
As a result, between January and October last year, the United States generated 148,047 gigawatt-hours of wind energy compared to China's 122,300 GWh, according to AWEA's analysis of data from the U.S. Energy Information Administration and the China Electricity Council.
Elsewhere around the world, BNEF found that Brazil saw grid-connected wind power installations for 2014 balloon to five times its previous record of 500 MW (0.5 GW), set in 2011. Increased transmission access helped the Brazilian market, according to BNEF, with nearly 1 GW of capacity that had been built in previous years reaching the grid for the first time.
David Hostert, BNEF's European wind analyst, said that such policy shifts can be unique drivers in energy markets, and he cautioned that last year's global development figures may not be reflective of future development.
Hostert noted, however, that one phenomenon worth watching is the "repowering" of existing wind farms with new equipment. Such projects accounted for more than 1 GW of all wind energy development last year. "This means making better use of existing wind sites and opening up new opportunities for developers and asset owners in a mature market," he said.
