While I’m a big believer in life outside of and after work, I do recognize that our careers consume a disproportionate amount of our time. For a lot of our life, it’s hard not to say that we are what we do for a living. So while it is wise for many reasons not to define…

Used in electrical engineering, Current Transformers are also known as instrument transformers. Measuring electric currents, their technical parameter is a fun detail to know. The main function is all about the measurement of electric currents. CT along with PT i.e. current transformers along with potential transformers together is known as instrument transformers. There is another significant function that the CT has, it is the power to segregate the equipment used for measuring from the…

Cool Meme... it is through out experience that we truly develop. Have a great day everyone. Cherish the moment and be aware beauty in every second. 

If I am getting frustrated or have a tendency to react, it helps me to think "Why am I really feeling this way, what's behind it? Where is there some beauty in this moment and how can I focus and develop on that?…

One of our heros is celebrating a special day today. It's our daughter Kaitlin. She's pictured here in her first graduation from Kindergarden at St. Paul's in Sault Ste. Marie but she has had many more since then. Next was Grade 8 at Our Lady of Peace in Maple (north of Toronto), then St. Joan of Arc High School, also in Maple, then University of Toronto with a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science then York with a Masters in Political Science.…

First my apologies as this is not a blog as much as it is a collection of images from my recent visit to Cape Town (or as it is known in the aviation world - CPT). I had the pleasure of visiting this jewel of South Africa during the 69th IATA Annual General Meeting which gathers hundreds of airline CEOs, suppliers and global media.

Dubai Airports sponsors the…

Working in aviation has its advantages. First, it lends itself to travel and over the past 30 years I have had the good fortune of visting, living and working in a number of great cities across the globe. Second, although its image has been battered by environmentalists (even though modern day jet aircraft are far more fuel efficient than automobiles!) and politicians (who fail recognise its considerable social and economic value and tax the heck out of it as a result), aviation still…

We have all heard the phrase “respect your elders”. However, along with relics like the rotary dial phone, VHS recorders and the hand written letter, that concept may be getting a little dated. In many, if not all cultures, the notion that “old folks” are a valued resource to young adults or to society in general is becoming little more than a polite gesture. Does…

By now you may have noticed I enjoy fishing. What you may not know is that has not always been case. When I was a young lad, fishing wasn't the technicolour, globe-trotting pastime it is today.

Sitting in a downpour on the Kebesquashashing River for hours on end waiting for the pickerel to hit as blackflies and mosquitos gnaw away at ankles and the apparently…

Little did we know our lives would change on September 21, 2009. Our foster co-ordinator at the Boston Terrier Rescue asked if we would be able to foster this little guy. Marty was found roaming the streets of Toronto when Toronto Animal Services picked him up and soon after, he became part of our Rescue. After having four foster pups come and go, I wasn't sure if my husband…

My Mom is the best. That's why, on this Mother's Day, I would like to pay tribute to her with my own personal Top Ten List of Favourite 'Mom' Moments

10. Getting one or more of my favourite desserts everytime I come home (butter tarts, blueberry and/or flapper pie)

9. Our trip to Lourdes, particularly the drive through the French countryside

8. Sitting in the porch on a summer's day in Chapleau, the breeze blowing in from the back yard as we catch up over a glass (ok…

Reposting this link from MSN... if you have a minute, its an amazing video. 

Try to figure out if these guys are playing or hungry...

For a Canadian, even one who has been out of the country for over a decade, NHL playoffs are a special time of the year. As a child, I fondly recall the ceremony and ritual that revolved around playoff hockey. My Dad, Boo (aka Alain Bouillon) and I would retreat to the 'rec room' downstairs, take out the TV tables and load them up with whatever sumptuous assortment of goodies my Mom had been kind enough to prepare. We would then settle in for several hours of intense oohing, aahing and,…

Go jump in the pool!

 I was lucky to get my hip replacement just as I retired and would have free time during the day to get back into shape. The physiotherapy rehabilitation exercises were quite demanding, and I resented the pain and effort every day ( I was dutiful though),  but I was excited by the opportunity to try aqua-therapy. I have always been a water baby, lifeguarding my way through university, and swimming competitively in younger days, so this looked like a good…
