Total eclipse of the heart

How was your week? Mine went by like a house on fire.

Did you watch the solar eclipse? We only had about 20% coverage here in Alberta, so it was a non-event unlike our friends in Northern New York who declared a state of local emergency.

I got tremendous value from this article "Feeling Stuck? Here Are 5 Ways to Jumpstart Your Life," and you might too. Particularly the section on friction audits: just because you're doing something doesn't mean you're doing it well.

I shared an update on the Houston entrapment by commenting on the aquatic facility inspections available from the Houston Department of Health.

I had a great (albeit heavy) conversation with Dr. Alison Petri from Abbey's Hope.

Also this week...

There was completely unnecessary backlash against the City of St. Paul, Minnesota over their "Happy Pool's Day" (April 1) water safety announcement.

I will be traveling next week to Switzerland as a Canadian delegate of the Standards Council of Canada (SCC) to the International Standards Organization (ISO) meetings on ISO Standard 20380:2017. I will talk more about my volunteer work on this standard in a future YouTube video.

Thank you so much for being here, I never take it for granted.
