TaCode Tuesday: How to Use Zang SMS and Call APIs in Node.JS
A couple years ago, the web was a stateless environment. Interactive features were treated as isolated units within a website, encapsulated within Flash or Java Applets. In 2009, NodeJS was released by Ryan Dahl aiming to create more interactive websites by establishing two-way connections. NodeJS enables asynchronous, event-driven input/output (I/O) making lightweight and efficient connections even in data-intensive applications.
The figure above shows the internal structure of Node.JS. Here, you see that only a single thread (i.e. file I/O, DNS, etc.) connects Node to the rest of an application. This single thread handles all incoming requests concurrently and can interface with one another. The architecture also allows the thread pool to interact with Node.JS' low-level libraries to perform operations such as database transaction, file system access, etc. The asynchronous processing is done by libuv which enables Node to move without having to wait for the outcome of a current event.
Why Use Node.JS?
Due to its asynchronous nature, a website built in Node can continuously execute a process without having to wait for a response. For every successful request, Node sends a callback and an application notification is made, allowing the waiting event to resume. This is possible through the use of Google's V8 engine and the C++ libuv library. V8 is a Just in Time (JIT) compiler written in C++ that compiles JavaScript directly into the assembly code while at the same time optimizing the program by removing dead objects. The libuv library, on the other hand, is responsible for the I/O operations. It is in libuv that time-consuming operations are delegated so that websites can focus on more responsive processes.
Node also utilizes native JSON. Because of this, it is fit to use in websites that are primarily built on Java. It also uses RESTful services to establish secure and efficient client-server connections. In utilizing JSON's JavaScript API, Node can also be used in both front-end and back-end components, enabling faster development time. It also minimizes the defects brought by having different programming languages talk with one another.
Using Node.JS for Zang
In this week's TaCode Tuesday, we will teach you how to use Zang in Node.JS utilizing its SMS and call APIs. Node.JS can be used for any website, and mobile and desktop applications in which asynchronous (async) processing is vital.
Before we start, you must have basic knowledge of:
- Node.JS Framework
- Asynchronous programming
- JavaScript
- JSON Data Format
- Terminal window commands
- Zang subscription – its free, you can get one here.
Let's start coding!
We will create a NodeJS client by connecting to Zang APIs. The following are the features of the standard NodeJS REST client:
- Direct or thorough proxy connection to remote API sites
- Remote API operations can be registered as client's own method enabling a simple code reuse
- Automatic parsing of XML and JSON response documents as JS objects
- Dynamic path and query parameters and request headers
- Improved error handling mechanism (client or specific request)
- Added support for compressed responses like gzip and deflate
- Transparent HTTP/HTTPS connection to remote API sites
- Allows simple HTTP basic authentication
- Allows most common HTTP operations: GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, PATCH
1.0 How to install your NodeJS client
Start by opening your terminal window and key in the following command:
$npm install node-rest-client
There are two ways to call a web service in Node.JS: registered and direct. Use the registered method to implement custom calls making code reuse easy. On the other hand, use direct method if you just want to utilize the standard methods available in Node.
- Registered method works by invoking a predefined JavaScript method, such as:
client.registerMethod("zangMethod", "{https://api.zang.io/v2/Accounts/{AccountSID}/Calls.json}", "GET");
client.methods.jsonMethod(function (data, response) {
// parsed response body as js object
// raw response
- Direct method works by using the native Node.JS method
client.get("{https://api.zang.io/v2/Accounts/{AccountSID}/Calls.json}", function (data, response) {
// parsed response body as js object
// raw response
2.0 How to invoke Zang Call API though Node.JS
There are two ways to invoke Zang's Call API. These are through a URL: https://api.zang.io/v2/Accounts/{AccountSID}/Calls.json; or through CURL:
curl -X POST 'https://api.zang.io/v2/Accounts/{AccountSid}/Calls.json' -u '{AccountSid}:{AuthToken}' -d 'From=XXX-XXX-XXXX&To=XXX-XXX-XXXX&
Once successful, you will receive the following response in JSON format:
"date_updated": "Wed, 13 Jul 2016 15:25:01 -0000",
"parent_call_sid": "",
"duration": 0,
"from": "+15555555555",
"to": "+19999999999",
"caller_id_blocked": "false",
"answered_by": "nobody",
"sid": "{CallSid}",
"recordings_count": "",
"price": "0.00",
"api_version": "v2",
"status": "queued",
"direction": "outbound-api",
"start_time": null,
"date_created": "Wed, 13 Jul 2016 15:25:01 -0000",
"subresource_uris": {
"notifications": "/v2/Accounts/{AccountSid}/Calls/{CallSid}/Notifications",
"recordings": "/v2/Accounts/{AccountSid}/Calls/{CallSid}/Recordings"
"forwarded_from": "",
"uri": "/v2/Accounts/{AccountSid}/Calls/{CallSid}",
"account_sid": "{AccountSid}",
"duration_billed": 0,
"end_time": null,
"phone_number_sid": ""
2.1 How to invoke Zang Call API through "Direct" approach
var Client = require('node-rest-client').Client;
var client = new Client();
//setup the zang call variables
var args = {
data: { From: "{XXX-XXX-XXXX}",
To: "{XXX-XXX-XXXX}",
Url: "{http://zang.io/ivr/welcome/call}"} // data passed to REST method (only useful in POST, PUT or PATCH methods)
parameters: { arg1: "{AccountSid}", arg2: "{AuthToken}" }, // query parameter substitution vars
headers: { "Content-Type": "application/json" }// request headers
//invoke the zang call api
client.get("https://api.zang.io/v2/Accounts/{AccountSID}/{Calls.json}", args,
function (data, response)
// parsed response body as js object
// raw response
3.0 How to invoke Zang SMS API through Node.JS
There are two ways to invoke Zang's SMS API. The first one is through a URL: https://api.zang.io/v2/Accounts/{AccountSid}/SMS/Messages.json; the second is through CURL:
curl -X POST 'https://api.zang.io/v2/Accounts/{AccountSid}/SMS/Messages.json' -u '{AccountSid}:{AuthToken}'
-d 'To=XXX-XXX-XXXX&From=XXX-XXX-XXXX&Body=This is an SMS sent from Zang'
Once successful, you will receive the following response in JSON format:
"api_version": "v2",
"sid": "{SmsSid}",
"account_sid": "{AccountSid}",
"date_created": "Tue, 24 Jul 2012 14:08:23 +0000",
"date_updated": "Tue, 24 Jul 2012 14:08:24 +0000",
"date_sent": "Tue, 24 Jul 2012 14:08:24 +0000",
"to": "+17325551234",
"from": "+14245551234",
"body": "Test message sent from TelAPI!",
"status": "sent",
"direction": "outbound-api",
"price": "0.070000",
"uri": "/v2/Accounts/AC5521767e53d04deeb0a06f660cee50f9/SMS/Messages/{SmsSid}.json"
3.1 Invoke the Zang Call API via NodeJS using registered approach
var Client = require('node-rest-client').Client;
// configure basic http auth for every request
var options_auth = { AccountSid: "{AccountSid}", AuthToken: "{AuthToken}" };
var client = new Client(options_auth);
// registering remote methods
client.registerMethod("jsonMethod", "{https://api.zang.io/v2/Accounts/{AccountSid}/SMS/Messages.json}", "POST");
client.methods.jsonMethod(args, function (data, response) {
// parsed response body as js object
// raw response
// posted data can be js object
//setup the zang sms variables
var args = {
data: { From: "{XXX-XXX-XXXX}",
To: "{XXX-XXX-XXXX}",
Body: "{This is an SMS sent from Zang}"} // data passed to REST method (only useful in POST, PUT or PATCH methods)
parameters: { arg1: "{AccountSid}", arg2: "{AuthToken}" }, // query parameter substitution vars
headers: { "Content-Type": "application/json" }// request headers
client.methods.jsonMethod(args_js, function (data, response) {
// parsed response body as js object
// raw response
}).on('error', function (err) {
console.log('something went wrong on the request', err.request.options);
// handling client error events
client.on('error', function (err) {
console.error('Something went wrong on the client', err);
Easy, right? Use Node to build prototypes and rapidly evolving applications like media sites and chat apps. Just keep in mind that like any platform, there are a couple of things to watch out for. For instance, since Node's architecture is deeply rooted in the V8 runtime engine, any modifications to it may impact your code. The single threaded nature of Node could also be a single point of failure. If too many concurrent requests are made, it may slow down the server or crash Node's main thread.
Despite this, Node is still an elegant solution for modern developers, most especially at the rate of agility required to compete in the market.

Although the trailer for this film wasn't riveting, I am a huge fan of Chastain, and I have love for Elba. So needless to say, I went to see this film based on the cast. My interest was also peaked by the favorable reviews it was receiving from critics and audiences. I didn't think the film would be bad, and I was definitely planning to see it. However I wasn't running to the theater. I don't know, perhaps it was just my personal mood, or the overload of films being released this holiday season. Who am I kidding…I think it had more to do with the 2.5 hr running time this movie had. Time is of the essence, and a film better be worth me losing almost 3hrs of it…lol.
I definitely did not doubt the performances, which were exceptional from Chastain and Elba. The film started out great. I loved the way it was directed, and how Chastain's character narrated throughout. Chastain is strong and beautiful on-screen and can held down every scene she was in. It was tough seeing men's lives crumble under the addiction of gambling…wow. I really applaud the story, however the running time could have been shortened. By the end the movie did feel like it ran longer than what was absolutely necessary…ijs.
If you are a fan of crime dramas, this is a film that delivers. Although I really enjoyed it, I would still say it's not anything I feel you need to run to the theater to see, unless you have 3 free hours on your hand. I do think you need to see it, but with its running time I know I probably would have enjoyed it better on a leisurely day on my couch…B+

Are you thinking about investing in airlines? If so, you need to have a proper airline investing strategy that you can employ. There are certain risks when it comes to investing in anything, but you can certainly reduce these risks, which is what I am going to try and help you do. Below, I am going to go over some general investing questions that will help you invest soundly, strategically and safely.
What are you Goals?
Do you want to be able to make some money so you can purchase a house or so you can have money for when you retire? Maybe you want to have some cash that you can leave to your children. Either way, you need to identify what your goals are and always keep them in mind.
How Quickly will you be able to Receive your Money?
This is one thing that you have to keep in mind when investing. Sure, you can sell your stocks, bonds and mutual funds at any time, but you have to remember that you may not get all of the money back that you invested.
How much would you like to Earn?
How much money would you like to see back from your investments? Keep in mind that the market often fluctuates, so earnings can go up and down at any point in time. Also, you need to keep in mind that past investments that did well may not be so safe in the future.
Are you willing to take the Risk?
There are risks involved with investing, but there are risks involved in everyday life. There's always a risk that you may not get your money back, but there's also the chance that you could make a ton of money. There's always potential risk and potential rewards when it comes to investing, so you have to keep that in mind.
How much could you Earn Over Time?
This is another thing that you have to keep in mind when you are investing. Earnings could go up over time or you could end up owing money. Also, how are those earnings going to be paid to you? Some earnings will come in the form of interest, while others could be pair in dividends. This is a question that you have to keep in mind at all times.
What about Taxes?
There are some investments out there that will give you certain tax advantages. Some investments may not require any taxes to be paid on earnings. This is one thing that you should definitely think about, because the benefits of these investments could be huge.
All of these questions should definitely help you invest safely. If you have any questions about investing, particularly in airlines, you should talk with a professional about an airline strategy. That way, you will have the best shot at investing and succeeding with your investments. Discuss your worries with them and they'll supply you with a strategy that's perfect for you.

Wanderlust Women: Getaway in 4 easy steps
By: Alicia Rae Marshall
Writer, PR/Communications Specialist and Mermaid
The word is everywhere these days, wanderlust. Some people associate it with a desire to travel the world, while others see it as an inability to settle. For mermaids like us, the idea of traveling the world is clearly alluring, but is it always practical? The "real" world suggest we get 9-5 jobs to "pay the mortgage", to settle down, get married, and raise a family. But sometimes, this just doesn't work. So what happens when your dreams reject what you've been taught?
The answer, pure and simple, is nothing. The world will not end because you aren't ready to "settle down". Sure, you may be on the receiving end of some raised eyebrows courtesy of your grandmother, when she asks when you're going to have a family…. But if she's anything like mine, your happiness will be what matters most. Just two generations ago, world exploration was something accomplished by the very rich and the very few, and now it's more obtainable than ever before. Embracing your wanderlust is to embrace the opportunities your ancestors didn't and grow from real world experiences.
In the last few decades, we've seen a new generation of woman emerge, the type of woman who answers to herself first and foremost, and wants to make the world a more beautiful place. I am so proud to be part of this new generation of women around the world. We are more mindful of others, we care about the planet, we want to make a difference…and we do. Whether you experience your wanderlust through world travel, switching up careers, or just changing your daily routine, we are a generation of women who are continually growing, and that's pretty special if you ask me (you did, right?!)
The important thing to remember is that the definition of wanderlust is up to you. You are the artist of your life's portrait. You determine what's important to you and you make the decisions. Growing up I was taught that anything worth having was worth working for; and, while this is true, I much prefer the saying "no time like the present". And where you wander is up to you….
That being said, while we're on the topic of travel, might I suggest Barbados? The local girls will know what this tropical island paradise has to offer, but it's more important that we share it with the world! So here are a few easy steps to following your heart and fulfilling your wanderlust, in beautiful Barbados…
1. Save save save! What good is planning for a trip if you can't afford it? Denying yourself a few nights out with friends will pay back dividends during your vacation. Trust me.
2. Make your plans known. Whether this means arranging for a pet sitter, requesting time off at work, or filling-in your parents, make sure people know your plans. Taking off at a moments notice can be fun, but don't have it result in a missing persons report!
3. Get the App: Barbados Tourism has a wonderful app (available here) that can help you find accommodations, restaurants, nightlife, and shopping. Spread that local love!
4. Let us KNOW! Going to be on the Rock (Barbados) sometime soon? Mermaids let us know, we'd love to meet you ☺
Tell us where you want to go!

Wedding planning is tough. Take it from Christina and Danny, wedding planning will throw you curve balls. Sometimes it's a really good thing, and sometimes it has you take a big step back. Maybe a little bit of both. When planning their wedding, Christina and Danny received a call from their venue saying they were not going to be able to host their event on the day they booked. Bummer, right?
Thankfully, because they make such a great team, they were able to find a new venue that fit their style and camp the night before. Remember when I told you I love the adventurous couple? I'm excited to start my wedding season out with these two in May, and even more excited for the day they have planned themselves. Starting their party out the night before with friends and barbeque, and ending the next day with a lakeside marriage at Horning's Hideout. I couldn't be more excited to spend their day with them.
Now back up a few weeks, and I bring you to Powell Butte for their engagement session! This park is out of a dream. It can be busy without being crowded, and there are SO many places to shoot. I love that it's wide open, especially on an overcast day, and I love the mix of green plants and dead grass. These two rocked it, making my experience here even more amazing. Enjoy!

Intangibles make Bibona hard to resist
UC Irvine coach Mike Gillespie has gotten to know countless players in nearly 40 years as a college baseball coach. It's safe to say Daniel Bibona ranks up there with his favorites. "I'm a huge fan of his," Gillespie said. "Anybody that's around him or really watches him, it's impossible to not like him. There's nothing not to like." That goes for fans, coaches, teammates and media—it's simply impossible not to like Bibona. Both on the field and off, Irvine's ace lefthander has… Continue Reading
Daniel Bibona passed up the pros for another shot at Omaha
Danny Bibona's college baseball career is proof that dreams come true. When Bibona signed on to join former coach Dave Serrano and the Anteaters before the 2007 season, he wasn't really sure what to expect. The Anteaters had a solid program but weren't the juggernaut they are today. Signing with the Anteaters was a risk, but it was one Bibona was willing to take. Three years later, Bibona couldn't see himself with another program. As with former stars Scott Gorgen, Ben Orloff, Cody Cipriano… Continue Reading
Towarnicky has his sights set on assisting poverty-striken areas after graduation
You know those university promos where a school will boast about how its students go out and make a difference in the world? Well Appalachian State's David Towarnicky is a prime example of that mantra. In fact, if ASU doesn't come out with a television spot or a website promo with David as their centerpiece, they're missing out on a huge opportunity. It's not as if being a team leader while playing first base, hitting .300-plus in three of his four seasons and never committing more than five… Continue Reading
Seniors and Their Experience Can Be a Team's Glue
Because of its developmental nature, baseball might have more nomadic athletes than any other college sport. A player can sign with a Division I program as a high school senior, elect to transfer to a junior college for more playing time, return to Division I at a different school and move on to professional ball before becoming a senior. Not every fan likes to see a roster loaded with seniors. The assumption is a player worth having will probably sign a minor-league contract as a junior and… Continue Reading
Bringing Baseball Back
Baseball used to be America's pastime. With the right ambassadors, it can be again. Major League Baseball has soiled what once was a good name with steroid scandals, outrageous payrolls, and a disconnection with a section of the fan base. The "me-first" mentality has caused some fans to look elsewhere for their baseball fix. Judging by record attendance in the college game, many fans are finding amateur play to their liking. Many of the knocks found in the professional game are… Continue Reading

Hello, Dear Reader:
Happy Monday!
This week's 'He Says, She Says…' post was inspired by a quote we came across recently from Andrew Cohen, who is the Founder and Editor in Chief of EnlightenNext:

George McJunkin was an African American cowboy responsible for the discovery of the Bison Antiquius. The discovery of this fossil shaped our understanding of human history in North America.
George McJunkin was born into slavery near Midway, Texas but was freed by the age 14 because of the Civil War. After being freed, he traveled west to New Mexico where the influence of Jim Crow persecution was less than it was in other parts of the United States. He taught himself to read and became a voracious reader and consumer of knowledge. Then, he taught himself Spanish and spoke it fluently enough to supervise both Mexicans and whites as a foreman on Crowfoot Ranch. He worked on several ranches and hunted buffalo. The men who worked for him fondly called him "Nigger George."
On August 27, 1908, there was a disastrous flood in Folsom, New Mexico that killed fifteen people and caused extensive damage. George McJunkin surveyed and began repairing a fence that had been harmed by the flood. While repairing the fence, McJunkin made a huge archaeological discovery, the bones of a buffalo buried so deeply there was no way they could belong to any living buffalo. He knew they had to be ancient. Realizing the importance of his discovery, McJunkin contacted several archaeologists that were professionals and amateurs. Alas, none of them were very interested in traveling two days via horseback to survey the bone site.
Fulsom died before others realized the significance of his discovery. Four months after his death, Carl Scwhacheim and Fred Harth traveled to the site. McJunkin had contacted them several times, and McJunkin had pleaded with them to come visit what became known as the Fulsom Site. They came. The scientific community gave Harth and Schawacheim the credit for discovering the site for at least fifty years. Four years after the pair visited the site, the Colorado Museum of Natural History completed a formal excavation of the site.
The discovery of the bison bones and the spear lodged in the fossil's ribs was significant, because it meant people had been living in North America since at least 9,000 BCE (7,000 years longer than archaeologists had estimated before the discovery). This finding was crucial to archaeology and to our understanding of the timeline of human history.
George McJunkin is buried at Folsom Cemetery in Folsom, New Mexico. There is a display about McJunkin and his discovery at the Folsom Museum.

Jet lag occurs when you cross time zones, and the time differences disrupt your body's circadian rhythm. Although the degree of impact varies between individuals, there are several steps you can take to minimise jet lag.
A quick search will tell you the main steps to battling jet lag after a flight. Simple steps such as drinking plenty and avoiding napping during the day at your destination are fairly achievable - but it can still take some people a full day to recover. More often than not, people don't want to lose the first day of their holiday groggy and adjusting to the new time zones - and business travellers can have important meetings to attend on day one.
There are several ways that private jet travel can significantly reduce the impact that crossing the time zones has on your body. Private jet cabins are pressurised to a lower altitude than commercial aircraft, so private jets offer a journey that is much gentler on the body (especially in terms of fatigue and dehydration). Cabin air is also fresher, and you are in charge of how bright the lights are - regardless of the time of day.
A very common point across the internet is to adjust your meal times on the day of travel, and eat according to the time at your destination. Generally, commercial airlines will provide food according to the departure time zone which limits your control over this. When flying by private jet, you'll be served exactly what you want when you want, so your body will be well on the way to acclimatising to your new time zone before you even land.
The same goes for sleep! If it's 1am at your destination when you take off, you should try and get at least a couple of hours of sleep during the flight. This will help kick start the adjustment and give you energy to make it through a full day on the other side instead of forcing yourself to stay awake for 18 hours. This is always far easier said than done on a commercial flight; the seats are uncomfortable, the lights can be bright and there is usually a lot of noise. Most private jets have an area that can be converted in to a full bed, which will make it far easier to get a good rest before arriving.
If you take off late at night but it's the middle of the day where you're flying, you can keep the lights bright to simulate daylight, and the whole cabin is yours to move around freely. Many people suggest light exercises or yoga, and anyone can tell you how easy that would be in the narrow aisle of a commercial airliner!
We are also able to schedule your flight times to help minimise the impacts of jet lag, such as ensuring you land in the morning at your destination so you're able to stay busy throughout the day, and have a full nights sleep at the end of it.
As much as private jet charter won't leave you completely immune to the effects of jet lag, it can certainly offer a lot more to help you combat it - so you're already most of the way to being adjusted to your destination time zone before you even step off the aircraft. If massively reducing jet lag isn't enough of a reason to charter a private jet for business, have a read about the other benefits of business charter.
Whatever your reason for flying, we would love to help you organise your trip. We are available for consultation 24 hours a day, so get in touch with one of our private jet charter experts on +44(0) 203 880 9005 and let us tailor a schedule to suit you. After all, luxury is freedom, so why stay grounded?

The 3rd Trilateral GeoSummit among the Geological Survey of Japan (GSJ), China Geological Survey (CGS), and Korea Institute of Geoscience and Mineral Resources (KIGAM) was held in Sapporo, Japan, on July 30, 2019. The summit was organized by GSJ, and the heads of delegations are Dr. YANO Yusaku, Director General of GSJ, Dr. ZHANG Hongtao, Counselor of the State Council, PRC, Professor of CGS, Dr. KIM Bok Chul, President of KIGAM. Dr. LEE Young Joo, Director of Coordinating Committee for Geoscience Programmes in East and Southeast Asia (CCOP) and Trilateral Cooperation Secretariat (TCS) delegation headed by Deputy Secretary-General (DSG) Ms. HAN Mei, attended the summit as observers.
At the summit, DSG HAN delivered a keynote remark to introduce TCS and contribution for trilateral cooperation achieved by TCS. During the remark, DSG HAN emphasized that this year commemorates the 20th anniversary of the official opening of cooperation between China, Japan and Korea and TCS has been actively performing its duties and continued to expand its contribution to foster trilateral cooperation in various ways. DSG HAN also underlined the importance of trilateral geological cooperation and TCS is ready to provide any assistance in its capacity to promote trilateral geographical cooperation, such as utilizing TCS website to promote the trilateral geological cooperation to the general public, if there is a need from institutions of three countries.
During the summit, the three institutions introduced each country's current status of geological research and achievements that each institution has achieved, and all of three institutions emphasized the importance of trilateral cooperation in this area.
At the technical sessions of the summit, the experts from three institutions delivered the presentations about active fault, geographic information system (GIS), 3D geological modeling, and coastal geology. After the presentations, the experts had an active discussion and shared a common view to emphasize and further strengthen cooperation among the three institutions.
In the afternoon session, the leader's meeting was held, and the heads of delegations from each institution had in-depth discussions on various topics for trilateral geological cooperation activities and future plan of cooperation among there institutions. At the meeting, DSG HAN made a suggestion to further enhance the cooperation, such as reporting the achievements made by trilateral geological cooperation to the higher level of each government. Three institutions appreciated the suggestion proposed by DSG HAN and agreed to have more discussion for the future plan of enhancing the trilateral geological cooperation.
Trilateral GeoSummit has been held since 2015, and TCS has been participating as an observer since 2017. The next Trilateral GeoSummit will be held in China in 2021.

Squirrel is such a character. You never know what she might do next. These pictures represent such an occasion. She was helping me fold clothes in the bedroom when she came across her swimming suit. Quickly she began pulling her clothes off and trying to put on the suit. I felt sorry for her and helped her. She then ran to her bedroom and got her beach hat and then went to the laundry room and found her rubber boats. I am not sure what statement she was trying to make, but she paraded around the house like this for the rest of the evening. She thought that she looked "very pretty." I thought that she was so cute and funny. I couldn't resist taking her picture, because one day this will embarrass her terribly!

Fear is not typically your friend. Anxiety isn't your best advisor. Hang out instead with hope and courage for your finest path forward.
My dreams bring me issues I need to address, and most often in a very creative form. I've learned to pay attention.
The thing about Socrates that most stands out to me was his courage. And I've come to see that as a central quality for any fulfilling life.
Compassion and Courage. What would the world be like if these two qualities led us every day, in equal measure, and applied by wisdom? Let's bring a little more of each into our lives.
When we cultivate the thought beyond words, we begin to explore a realm of wonder that far exceeds the reach of language.
What if creativity is really your default setting? It could be that you just need to remove some artificial obstacles in order to be your innovative artistic best.
When circumstances squeeze you, it's best not to be a dry sponge. And what you'll give out will be what you've soaked up. Remember that.
Friends can double the good and cut the bad in half. Aristotle understood that it would be difficult to live a great life without friends.
The one external good that's of genuine internal worth is a friend.


text: The signs of spring are showing up everywhere. There are baby leaves on the trees, the daffodils and tulips are blooming, the birds are singing, and the fields are greening up. It's just so pretty as you are driving down a country road next to a creek, or by the banks of the New River, or walking the New River Trail! Here are some pictures of a few of the flowers that are in bloom at my home.

Are you looking for the motivation to either get started or get back on track with your weight loss goals? Just because we are into the summer, doesn't mean it's too late! Nothing is more motivating than accountability on a weekly basis and potential prize money for winning it all, right?!

Guatemala, La Morena
In Guatemala, gender equality remains a challenge, and coffee has long been a male-dominated industry. These factors have made it incredibly difficult for women to compete and thrive in the coffee world, which is why we are so thrilled to be able to offer this wonderful "classic Guatemala", the 2018 La Morena. This year's La Morena microlot was produced by four women-owned farms in Huehuetenango. The combined efforts of these for growers, Maria Teresa Alverado, Aleida Herrera, Sara Lopez and Yuris Yojana Villatoro is evident in the high quality of their product. La Morena is fully washed, 100% Arabica and Direct Trade certified. It is a balanced and clean cup with medium body and brightness and a smooth finish. Look for abundant flavor notes of Chocolate, walnut, cherry and brown sugar.

Proper inspections are necessary to ensure that a safe facility is maintained for members and guests. Nearly as important as the inspection itself is the appropriate documentation of what was checked and its condition. In case of an incident or injury the failure to properly document becomes crucial because the YMCA will have no evidence of the measures that were taken to ensure the safety of those it serves.
Some of the necessary inspections should be performed daily, some weekly or monthly, and some only annually, but all are a vital part of keeping your facility safe.
Every YMCA building should be confirmed to be a safe environment for children, members, and guests prior to each day's opening. Emergency action plans should be accessible, emergency exits marked and clear of obstructions, fitness equipment in good condition, floors and stairs free of trip hazards. Childcare and aquatic areas should be visited frequently but irregularly throughout the day, and vehicles should be inspected before the day's use. The goal is to identify and correct any immediate threats to patrons, visitors, or staff. Any hazards identified should be promptly corrected.
Qualified personnel should verify the proper operation of all emergency lighting and exit signs. All boiler rooms, mechanical and electrical rooms, pool equipment rooms, heating, ventilation, and air conditioning equipment, etc. should be checked for proper operation, loose hoses or wiring, improper stor-age, etc. Each piece of fitness equipment should be closely inspected for safety, i.e., loose parts, fraying cables, and proper anchoring. All childcare and children's programming protocols should be verified to be functioning as intended and in accordance with the guidelines of the governing authority. Compliance with regular vehicle inspection guidelines and maintenance should be monitored.
A thorough inspection of the entire physical plant by qualified staff and/or vendors should be performed. Childcare, children's programming, and aquatic programs should be reviewed to ensure that existing internal and external guidelines, protocols, and record keeping have been met and that they are still sufficient to meet the current applicable standards of care. A thorough safety check of all vehicles should be performed by a qualified outside vendor.
Standardized inspection and monitoring forms should be developed. They should include a facility opening / closing inspection, locker room sweep sheets, aquatic observations, facility and equipment inspections, emergency equipment inspection, program review form, etc. The Redwoods Group web site (Forms section) contains several examples. All documentation should include a signature and date (including time for forms used daily). It should be maintained at least three years both to allow the recognition of patterns or trends and to provide proof, if necessary, that you did all that was possible to keep your facility, programs, and vehicles safe.
Please call us at 800-463-8546 to discuss this or any other risk management safety tip, or visit our web site at www.redwoodsgroup.com to learn more about YMCAs risk management issues.

How do I talk about my minimalist lifestyle to my friends and family?
This is a question I see frequently in minimalist forums. When choosing not to conform to a consumerist and materialist mindset, it can be hard to explain to the people in your life that you want to make a change and that you're not selling all your stuff because you're broke.
If you live with others, having a conversation with the people in your household is required. You can't go tossing people's things without talking to them.
Last time we talked about the fear of letting go and your household members will share those same fears.
Talking to the people who live in your house:
- Call a house meeting.
- Propose the idea or let them know what you've been up to.
- Explain your why.
- Explain how it benefits everyone.
- Promise that you will consult them when you want to toss something of theirs. Some people may get rid of their family's stuff and they never miss it, but I think it's a common courtesy to let them know if they are old enough to understand what is happening.
- Get your household on board (if you can) and involve them in the decluttering process.
- Be prepared for them to resist the idea, sabotage your efforts, or ignore you all together. Return to numbers #3 and #4.
- Be consistent in your efforts and set the example for your household to follow.
Talking to people who don't live in your house:
- First, if they don't live in your home, it's really none of their business, but you may want to share what you're doing or they might ask questions.
- Do number #3 from above.
- Talk to them about giving gifts and other things to you and your family.
- If they resist, ask them to respect your choice and remind them that it's your business what you do. If they continue to give you stuff, politely, but firmly decline, return, or donate it.
- If you don't tell them about your lifestyle change and decluttering, don't be annoyed when they give you stuff, but take the opportunity to educate them.
Communication is one of the most important aspects of your relationships and if you want to be successful on your minimalist journey you need to be clear with others about what you're trying to achieve.

We're mid-holiday-season, which means this, for a lot of us, is a much needed time of rest before we're thrown into 2018. Even though the holidays have their own set of stressors and triggers, taking that time to disengage from the craziness of your life is key to avoiding burnout.
It's important to work hard and sacrifice for what you want in life. Especially when you're at a place in your life when you're still building the foundation for your future. However, it is equally important to find time to recharge in the midst of all of this.
Life can be a lot sometimes. Even if you think you've got everything handled, if you're anything like me, you can always use a reminder to check in with yourself.

People do a lot of things when it comes to keeping their body fit and healthy. One of those things is dieting which involve controlling your food intake in a strategic and planed manner.

Ketogenoc diet is one of those many types of diets that people prefer. It is usually defined as a low-carbohydrate, high-fat and adequate-protein kind of diet whose main purpose is to burn body fat rather than carbohydrates. When one takes food, normally the carbohydrates contained in it is converted into glucose which is distributed around the body especially in the brain to fuel its function, keto diet plans here!
Ketogenic diet involve processing fats in the food instead of carbohydrates by converting the fat into fatty acids ketone bodies which are then passed into the brain replacing glucose gotten from carbohydrates thus making it the source of energy. Ketogenic diet is considered the most efficient and effective diet when it comes to achieving rapid and ultra-low body fat levels with maximum muscle retention as well as giving one amazing high energy and overall sense of well-being. When done right, ketogenic diet is very effective but one has to adhere to its requirements, dedication and discipline. However before going into ketogenic diet, you have to consult a doctor in order to know whether your body organs can be able to take the changes involved in the process.

Photo Credit: Imeh Akpanudosen/Getty Images By REUTERS August 12, 2015 2:43 PM Print Share fbShare Tweet Email Uggie, the energetic Jack Russell terrier who captured hearts when he appeared in the Oscar-winning silent movie "The Artist," has died in Los Angeles at the age of 13, his owner said on Wednesday. The white and tan dog, who charmed audiences and the media in red carpet appearances to promote the movie, had a prostate tumor and died last week. "We regret to inform to all our friends, family and Uggie's fans that our beloved boy has passed away," Uggie's owner and trainer Omar Von Muller said in a Facebook posting. "Uggie had a cancerous tumor in the prostate and is now in a better place not feeling pain. Thank you for your support, I will not be reading any comments for a while as it is too painful at the moment," he added. Uggie starred as "The Dog" alongside French actor Jean Dujardin in the 2011 movie which won five Oscars, including best picture. Fans of Uggie conducted an unsuccessful campaign to have him nominated for an Oscar in his own right. His stunts and tricks led to numerous television appearances and in 2012 he became the first dog to have his prints cemented outside Grauman's Chinese Theatre in Hollywood, alongside acting legends such as Elizabeth Taylor, John Wayne and Judy Garland. Uggie, who also appeared in the movies "Water for Elephants" and "The Campaign," retired in 2012. By REUTERS Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Comments We're revamping our Comments section.
