Partnership Provides Heart Rate Training Solution Both Inside and Outside of the Club for a Unique Experience That Increases Member Loyalty
VANCOUVER, BC--(Marketwired - Oct 13, 2016) - Mio Global, known for the most accurate wrist-based heart rate technology, today announces its partnership with Accuro, a fitness technology company that provides group training solutions to improve member experience and build member loyalty. The AccuroFit Dynamic Heart Rate Training Display now synchronizes with Mio FUSE heart rate + activity tracker to provide club members with the luxury and option of choosing between either a chest strap or a wristband heart rate monitor. Mio Global's collaboration with Accuro allows clubs to wirelessly display individual and group performance results onto multiple screens so members can track workout data and heart rate zones in real time through a comfortable wristband.
"With wrist-based heart rate monitors, you tend to think about good, better and best. Mio is the best, period," said Weilong Li, President CEO of Accuro. "We are excited to add their products alongside our Dynamic Heart Rate Monitoring System because we feel like we have the best solution available for Heart Rate Projection and Heart Rate Training. Adding Mio into the mix solidifies that position because no other solution gives you the flexibility that AccuroFit does along with the heart rate monitor technology that is provided from both a chest and wristband perspective."
Club members now have the flexibility to choose between six different types of heart rate monitors (three chest straps and three wristbands), which is unparalleled in the group training industry. For clubs already using AccuroFit, this partnership takes the heart rate training experience to a new level with the most accurate wrist-based heart rate monitoring to better help members achieve their goals.
"We pride ourselves on the EKG-level accuracy of our wrist-based products and optical heart rate technology," said Liz Dickinson, Founder and CEO of Mio Global. "We are happy to provide AccuroFit club members with a lifestyle device option that can be used in the club setting during small group training, or outside the club to track performance data through the Mio GO and Accuro Health apps."
Together, Mio Global and Accuro will provide clubs with the tools needed to provide a powerful User Interface to engage, motivate and retain existing members. For more information, visit www.mioglobal.com/groupfitness.

Fisher Stevens' acclaimed documentary on climate change and global warming, fronted by Leonardo di Caprio, is now available free to watch via National Geographic on Youtube. Laudable for its global outlook and stunning cinematics (despite one too many shots of Leo looking moody), this is a must watch documentary that will ram home so many of the issues that have become painfully aware to humanity over the past decade. We sincerely hope that films like this will begin to convince people that public action is the way forward, and that human co-existence with the Earth's ecosystem is viable.
Have a watch, and let us know what you made of the feature. Though be ready for a lot of shots of Leo looking like this:

Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 113005
redhat-config-samba requires pygtk2-libglade
Last modified: 2007-11-30 17:07:00 EST
redhat-config-samba requires pygtk2-libglade to run. The error message is:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/share/redhat-config-samba/redhat-config-samba.py", line
19, in ?
import mainWindow
File "/usr/share/redhat-config-samba/mainWindow.py", line 10, in ?

Seems to me like automatic dependencies does not work properly.
I just added a Requires for pygtk2-libglade and committed it to cvs.
Should be fixed in system-config-samba-1.2.1-1. Thanks for your report.
I just wonder why auto-requires works with perl scripts and does not
work with python scripts...

It's a challenge, a joyful and rewarding one, but still nonetheless a challenge to be a mom. And to be a currently single working mom, well, there should be awards given out and red carpets for us to stroll down in our special dressy garments (with deep pockets to discreetly hold lipstick, pacifier and breast milk pads, and iphone to text the babysitter). But let's just take a moment to wax grateful about the little bling-less reasons to take it slow in the morning. To pause instead of rush almost robotically through each day of our personal and family life.
Lingering after the shower, generously applying that special body creme for no special reason or occasion, gingerly dabbing perfume behind your ears and finger fluffing your hair; letting it free from ponies and rigid blowouts. Taking time for yourself may yield a whisper in the ear of devotion when you have done nothing intentionally sexy or romantic, and not just because you are the mother of his children, but just because the thought/feeling crossed his mind/heart and he couldn't hold it in....
Let's start with say a semi-real breakfast... It's amazing how a good strong cup of coffee and a homemade nut-raisin cluster with organic Greek yogurt can set the morning straight. It ranks up there with your beloved taking out the garbage without you having to ask 20 times, volunteering to cook the family dinner (or ordering delicious and healthy take-out and setting the table with plates and real flatware) - it sets things straight, allows you to breathe and nourishes from the inside and out.
When you take your time in the morning, your ease is contagious. Your kids greet your caffeinated "wakey wakey" with a smile instead of a moan that resembles something wild caught in a bear trap, and the duck under the covers and the roll away from the morning light always ends in arms stretched out and a droosy, "Mommy". That walk to the school bus or school is filled with giggles and Eye Spys and your kiss on the check is offered with no reluctance - just pure love.
Go slow. Take your time. Enjoy life. Breathe.

I've been to the main Museum of London site several times but this was my first trip out to Docklands. It's well worth a visit – entrance is free and it's great for families (I went on a Sunday afternoon and there were lots of family friendly activities taking place). For adults, many of these activities take place away from the main galleries so there aren't too many kids under your feet!
The ten free galleries begin from the third floor taking you through in a sequential order from 1600 to the present day (like a less stressful version of Ikea). I specifically went to visit the London, Sugar and Slavery gallery but spent time in all of the galleries. For anyone who like the Victorian Walk at the London Wall site, Sailortown is similar, a recreation of the area around the docks in the mid nineteenth century.
The museum is housed in No.1 Warehouse at West India Quay which was built during the period of the slave trade and would have stored the sugar from the plantations who prospered from slave labour. As well as looking at the slave trade, black presence in Britain generally is examined, contradicting the common perception that there was no black community in the UK until the 1940s. There was a known community in Seven Dials, and the port area was a key entry point for merchants, traders etc. The painting May Morning by John Collett which shows a street scene. Here a black servant is shown joining in a traditional London festival in the 1770s. No one looks surprised to see him there, despite this being at the height of the slave trade, showing that he wasn't as unusual a sight as many might suppose.
At the entrance to this section is a large black board, names and figures inscribed in stark white. These are the names, captains, owners and destination of the slave ships that set sail from London. I noticed that a lot of people stopped here for a while, I suppose just to think about the numbers of people transported on those ships in shocking conditions. There is a diagram of a slave ship showing how 609 men, women and children were crammed in and transported in horrific squalor. They were seen and talked about as goods, not people, and so their living conditions were not a concern.
From my own research I know that slavery existed in Africa long before the Europeans got involved. Slaves were often traded to settle debts or captured during wars. Crucially these slaves had rights and could even rise to positions of power and wealth. It was the European influence that resulted in the dehumanisation of slaves.
The slave trade was nicknames the 'Triangular Trade' after the route the ships took. First they would sail from Europe to Africa laden with goods such as guns, iron bars, alcohol and copper and bronze bracelets known as manillas). Enslaved people would be marched to the coast, those who survived what could be hundreds of miles of walking would be stored like goods in a warehouse while they waited to be sold. Once purchased they would be transferred to the ships, but even then they could face a wait of up to several months in the ship's hold whilst waiting for the captain to purchase the numbers he wanted. To pay for the food and water needed to keep the slaves alive the ships also loaded gold, ivory and cloth to sell in the Caribbean or back in Europe.
Conditions on the ships were as awful as the warehouses, and it was said that a slave ship could be smelt from as far away as five miles. Some captains looked after their cargo, protecting the slaves from abuse and letting them have exercise (this could be for moral reasons, or for the purely financial aim of selling healthy slaves on arrival). Others played a numbers game and just crammed as many as possible into the ships. Revolts were violently stopped, and there were many cases of suicide and infanticide by mothers desperate to save their young children from the life ahead.
The third side of the triangle was the return journey. The revenue from the slaves purchased goods such as sugar, coffee, cocoa, cotton and tobacco which could then be sold back in Europe.
It was the Quakers who first began the British movement towards emancipation, forming the Society for the Abolition of the Slave Trade in 1787. This society was supported by leading African abolitionists such as Olaudah Equiano who bought himself out of slavery. It is worth noting that many of the factors which led to the ending of slavery arose from the actions of the slaves themselves. They were not a passive and helpless people relying on the help of wealthy whites. After the successful slave revolt in Hispaniola, Haiti in 1791, and several failed attempts in Jamaica, it became clear that relying on enslaved labour could be unstable and expensive, and that paid labour could be more profitable.
Freetown in Sierra Leone was founded by British abolitionists in 1787 and populated by both rescued Africans, and also black Londoners who wanted to escape poverty. The British public came on board and in 1792 the West Indian sugar boycott began, with up to 300,000 people giving up sugar leading to the decimation of sales. In 1807 the Abolition of the Slave Trade bill was passed but this was only the first step as it only banned the trade of slaves and so slave owners were free to continue on with those they already owned.
The belief had been that the abolition of the trade would lead to a gradual decline in slavery. This did not happen though and so the Anti-Slavery Society was founded in 1823. They weren't keen on women though and so the Birmingham Ladies Society for the Relief of Negro Slaves was established in 1825. On the 1st August 1834 slavery in British territories became illegal, slave owners receiving £20 million in compensation for the loss of property. Many slaves were left without housing or clothing and had to leave their homes in order to find work.
This is a great gallery giving an objective view of the facts surrounding British involvement in the slave trade and its legacy. There is also an exhibit commemorating the Caribbean voluntary service in World War I, showing the names of the fallen. The museum as a whole represents all of the docklands communities well, and I would highly recommend it.

A new home security product was just launched and can now be pre-ordered through crowdfunding Website IndieGoGo. It is called 'Cocoon' and it markets itself as 'the smartest home security device' in the world.
The selling proposition is simple but impressive. The new product is supposed to have the ability to detect possible intruders who may be entering a user's house or office. Unlike other security devices, this one can detect unlikely visitors even behind closed doors and obscure rooms inside a house.
Distinct feature
Cocoon combined machine learning with infrasound (audio below 20Hz, which in turn can't be detected by human hearing). This is to make sure that the new product would be able to monitor an entire property.
The new security device is hardly the size of a typical tennis ball. It also comes with several sensors for detection of intruders anywhere in a house. It uses algorithms that could detect changes in behavior and movements, enabling it to identify unusual movements. Consequently, it would alert the homeowner through smartphone notification.
As a 'smart' device, Cocoon could recognize when a homeowner comes in or leaves the property. It could even identify his/her sleeping patterns, setting it apart from other conventional home security products.
Ideal home security device
Cocoon claims to detect if there are people who intrudes a property. It can learn if there are unusual movements inside the house. Through its notification system, it could tip the owner to take proper action and be safe.
As announced, this new and promising device can be pre-ordered for 30 days online. According to sources, it takes an introductory price of about $250 to $300 per unit.
However, because Cocoon is still in the crowdfunding stage, consumers may have to wait until the end of 2015 before they could finally get hold of one. But as early as now, many observers and analysts expect it to face intense competition. Other home security providers may also develop similar or better gadgets to entice consumers amid an increasingly competitive local home security market.

text: This chapter was inspired by a project I created for a client who wanted to portray their company's history chronologically in brief snippets. I used After Effects and Photoshop to create a storyboard that illustrated my idea to animate a filmstrip passing across the screen. The strip speeds by, stops to play a movie within a film frame about some company milestone, speeds up until it reaches the next milestone and its movie, and so on. It's a rich effect and relatively easy to produce with After Effects.

The Quiet Voice that Shakes the World
Fri, Jul 5, 2013 4:10 PM
Johnstown PA
For Registered Conference Guests
How Animal Consciousness Inspired and Transformed Tolstoy, Gandhi, and Schweitzer
Conference Center at U of Pitt-Johnstown
450 Schoolhouse Road
Open to attendees of the 2013 Vegetarian Summerfest conference.
Greed, violence and mass exploitation have long plagued our world, and now have become so extreme that the very survival of our ecosystem is at risk. For centuries, there have been those who sought to offer an alternative. The selflessness, moral courage and commitment to nonviolence of Leo Tolstoy, Henry David Thoreau, Mohandas Gandhi and Albert Schweitzer are legendary. Yet historical accounts tend to underplay a common thread between them: a deep connection with, and concern for, our fellow animals. Understanding how profoundly this all-inclusive ethic of justice and compassion affected the moral development of such visionaries may hold the key to unlocking our species' highest potential.

MoovieShoovie aims to create the world's largest marketplace dedicated to quality cinema. With content of all kinds overwhelming us in a veritable digital tsunami, it is increasingly hard for people who love great cinema to find it; and for people who create great cinema to make their voices heard. In this world of frenetic marketing, one tends to forget that there are literally thousands of wonderful Indian films that have been forgotten or never really found the audience they deserved. Chain stores don't stock them ( one of us had a trying experience trying to find Deewar in a Very Large Chain Store) and of course, cinemas don't play them any more.
Most films are famous for eight minutes, and rightly so.On the other hand, there are films that tug at your heartstrings, fill you with emotion, nostalgia, happiness. It doesn't matter when these films were made, who acts in them or even what language they were made in. All you know is that you can never grow tired of watching them. It is this kind of film that we pursue and want to re-surface to the world.
Are we intellectuals ? Sophisticates ? Snobs ? We aspire to be all those things someday, but today our vision is much simpler than that – we aim to create an oasis where you can always find a film that's worth your time. MoovieShoovie is not for everyone, and it's not for every type of film. But over time, we hope to have a lot of the films you love and none of the films you are indifferent to.
See for yourself : Read our blog at moovieshoovie.wordpress.com, or join the gang at the Adda. Or watch a film .

While Vin Diesel may be busy with several other projects, his heart is still clearly focused on the Fast and Furious franchise. The Hollywood actor shared a post on Facebook with quite a long message about who the director of the eighth installment may or may not be.
Diesel, 48, shared a photo of him and the director of four of the films from the series (sequels three to six), Justin Lin. In the caption, Diesel wrote about how the two had been discussing making another three films to end the project. But he informed that Lin would be busy with another project and wouldn't be available to make the eighth movie in time for the release date of April 14, 2017, set by the studio. "This would leave 8 without an obvious go to director…" Diesel added.
The star went on to remind fans about what his mother said six months ago when the release date was first announced: "Either you direct 8 yourself… or don't do it." But Diesel said that he wrote it off as his mother's belief and love in him, despite the fact that she had seen him work on the films to make them "defy expectations" and "become increasingly successful," even though studio bosses apparently thought he was crazy.
At this point in Vin Diesel's post, you can't help but ponder the question: is Diesel going to be the next director? No, unfortunately not. The actor continued to write in the same post that first and foremost they need a script, which is expected in about two weeks, prior to the actor going away to promote his new film Witch Hunter.
He also revealed that he's pushing for the same director that late co-actor Paul Walker wanted—Rob Cohen, who directed the first movie of the series, The Fast and the Furious. He also said that Cohen would be able to "reset the franchise" and take it back to its roots, which are racing. And given the sensitive issue of Walker's death, Cohen would know how to handle his character, Brian O'Connor, especially because Cohen (along with David Ayer) is the one who created Walker's character in the first place.
Diesel ended with a sentimental note to fans, telling them that everyone making the trilogy only wanted the best for it, adding, "Again, we make these films with Our hearts [sic]." The post has since been shared on Facebook almost 4,000 times.
Fellow Fast and the Furious co-star, Tyrese Gibson, was one of the first people to comment on Diesel's post (and later shared a similar post on his own Facebook page). Gibson praised Vin Diesel for trying to stay true to what Paul Walker would have wanted, which is for Cohen to return to the franchise. But as Gibson put it, "You can't buy what's not for sale." He then added, "I stand here with both of my brothers – whatever the outcome Pablo will know we went as far as we could to do all that he asked of us…" (Walkers' co-stars often used "Pablo" as a nickname.)

Well the Iola Vintage Military Show has come and gone and yes it was a great show this year. The crowds looked as good as ever to me so the high gas prices didn't keep people away. As usual I met a lot of old friends and interesting veterans who freely shared their historical memories. Our stressed economy has not hit the military collecting hobby as hard as expected and the high prices can still put a long time collector like me into sticker shock. I did over hear some dealers talking about a tighter market and slower sales but as of yet I am still having no trouble selling stuff on eBay and eCrater so maybe their prices are just too high. From an exhibiters point of view it is very gratifying year after year to watch so many people stop and actually take the time to read the text of my exhibits. As a long time medal collector I am sorry to say that I couldn't find anything to add to my collection. Prices were not the problem here; there simply was nothing that I saw that I needed or wanted. I couldn't even find a Marine Corps Good Conduct miniature medal to replace the one my father-in-law lost from his group. On a related topic I see that the local sheriffs deputies are not wearing metal badges any more. All the badges I saw were thin cloth patch like badges that are sewn or stenciled on their shirts. The USO style show by Chicago's Honey Bears on Saturday evening, was great even though the sound level was so high that one couldn't understand most of the words in the songs. One bit of news gleaned from the show was that an old American WWII glider was found in Northern Michigan and is being restored in Wausau Wisconsin. I'll keep you posted as they are planning a dedication event when the restoration is completed.

Jamie Ridler, an amazing artist has turned me on to "Full Moon Dreamboards." A lot of the current stuff I am reading right now in terms of spirituality and creativity talks a lot about the cycles of the moon and how our energy shifts depending on where the moon is at anytime during the month. At first, this was a little "too out there" for me, but as I looked at things more closely, it is exactly what I have been needing.
This weekend marked the first day of spring. Yes, the grass is green, things are starting to warm up, the sun feels so good on parched, winter skin, and people are outside again, hitting baseballs, running, and lighting up their barbecues. This weekend was also a full moon and I decided to embark on a little exercise:
"When I first heard the phrase "Full Worm Moon," I was less than enthusiastic, but as I discovered that this March moon is when the earth starts to soften and the burrowers of her soil find their way to the surface, I started to change my mind. What if we took our cue from spring and allowed ourselves to soften? What if we let what's within us find its way to the surface? What tender dreams would be revealed? Under this Full Worm Moon, open your awareness. Pay attention to the the dreams that are wiggling their way to the surface. What wishes are asking for your attention? What is beginning to emerge? Let your dreamboard guide the way." -Jamie Ridler http://jamieridlerstudios.ca/
So I got my collage supplies out tonight and started to create in silence. I just listened and became visually engaged in images and words and the final product hits so close to home. My emerging wishes for this full moon heading into spring:
-Lots, lots, lots of self-love, self-care, and self-nurturing through the things I love doing: writing, being outside, being upside down, and being creative. The "fresh lemon spirit" made me uber excited to invest in some yummy citrus shower gel.
-Being open, receptive, and accepting to all that happens. I really want to start a consistent meditation practice for 15 minutes a day and just being open to what I will find makes me feel even more at peace.
-Living boldly in all areas of my life and taking on the possibility of being sexy & bold. Incorporating & matching my go-getting attitude with a soft feminine spirit (hence the high heel).
Spring reminds us all that we are growing, always in process, and arriving at new ground. I look forward to what will open up and bloom.

|Re: [configuration] Concerns with ConfigurationRuntimeException
|Fri, 22 Oct 2004 06:05:57 GMT
A possible solution would be to strictly separate between loading a Configuration and accessing its properties. So when a Configuration object is created all available properties are loaded into memory. This could cause a checked exception to be thrown. After that, access to properties won't cause any problems. On a first glance, such an approach has some disadvantages: It might limit us when implementing new kinds of configuration sources, and memory usage will be high for large configuration sources. But is this really problematic? Here are some thoughts about this: - When loading a Configuration it would be possible to define some filters so that only a subset of the available properties would be loaded. This would reduce memory usage. E.g. in JNDIConfiguration a prefix can be defined. I think a similar mechanism could be implemented for DatabaseConfiguration. - I assume that nearly all available configuration properties will be accessed at least once during the lifetime of a client application (otherwise it wouldn't make sense to define them). If each property access caused a load operation (e.g. from a database), this could cause a performance issue. So for N properties this would result in at least N load operations instead of one for loading all (or a subset) properties at creation time. - For configuration implementations that do not keep their properties in memory iteration over the available keys using the getKeys() method might be problematic and expensive because it may result in loading the whole data. ConfigurationFactory makes use of the getKeys() method at least for creating union configurations. So one could argue that in this scenario all properties are loaded anyway.

Almost all people suffer from constipation sporadically at some time in their lives. The diet for constipation is intended for those who have difficulty going to the bathroom, in some cases they go every 2-3 days, in others the consistency of the stool is quite hard and makes it difficult to evacuate.
Keep in mind that not everyone goes to the bathroom with the same frequency, as normal is to go three times a day as a day if and one does not, therefore normality is broad.
The constipation and s an indicator of your immune function and your degree of intoxication. You must increase the consumption of water, of integral foods and rich in fiber to be able to regulate the intestinal transit.

The consumption of sweets and sugars hidden favors the retention of feces. Sometimes a diet low in fiber is added because of the reluctance of children to eat fruits, vegetables and legumes.
For every constipated man there are 3 women, the female sex hormones (estrogens) favor this predisposition to constipation. Constipation is also common during pregnancy, postpartum and menopause.

Increase the intake of vitamin C in the form of citrus fruits and kiwi in breakfast and fiber (fresh fruit with skin, vegetables, nuts, whole grains, legumes …). When you eat fruit do not remove the skin because that is where the greatest amount of fiber is concentrated.
Establish a fixed schedule of 5-6 meals, taking into account:
- In all meals there must be: protein, fat and carbohydrates.
- Three main meals and two / three snacks.
- Eat slowly and chew well.
- Do not let more than an hour pass, since you get up without breakfast.

The lemon citric acid diluted, generates a citrate buffer alkalizing character.
- Make a depurative cure for 15 days by drinking a cup of this depurative broth in your diet for constipation every night.
- Do not mix starches in the same food: bread, pasta, rice, potatoes, banana, corn, beet, pumpkin.
- Take extra virgin olive oil in your meals.
- The preparation of the food will be grilled, cooked, steamed, baked … Avoid culinary preparations that incorporate a lot of fat: fried, stews, breaded, stews, etc.
- You can season the food (lemon, vinegar, spices, pepper …) to flavor the dishes.
- Moderates the amount of salt. In case of fluid retention, "salt without sodium" is recommended.
- The Coca-cola, coffee, tea mate and are non – caloric, but are potent stimulators of insulin, constipation, inflammation and body fat storage. Reduce your consumption and if you take them, make it at breakfast along with other foods with fiber. The rest of the day takes them decaffeinated.
- Try to reduce the level of stress because it causes the same physiological response as caffeine. It is advisable to practice relaxation or yoga techniques.
- Practice moderate exercise at least 20 minutes of walking per day.
Tips to avoid constipation

-Go to the bathroom every day at the same time.
-Day massages in a circle in the belly to activate intestinal peristalsis.
MASAGE ILEOCECAL VALVE: it communicates the small intestine with the large intestine; it often gets stuck and stays open or closed generating intestinal pain. Right hand: thumb navel and little finger on the iliac crest, where the three fingers fall towards the middle is the ileocecal valve. With the three fingers massage 10 times towards the left shoulder.
-It is very important to repopulate the microbiota (intestinal flora), because the bacteria or probiotics that compose it transform the carbohydrates soluble in short-chain fatty acids that stimulate the function of the epithelial cells of the intestine (enterocytes).
Diet for constipation: Foods with higher content in probiotics
For this it is advisable to increase the consumption of prebiotic foods, which favor the function of probiotics: asparagus, spinach, beetroot, goat cheese, grated apple, onion and first cold pressed olive oil.

E. Christopher Clark writes fiction about fractured families, lust gone wrong, and memories as time machines. In October 2017, he published his first novel, derived from a one-act play written twenty years ago in college. In our interview, he talks about the process of writing and the things that helped him to go through with it. Also, he discusses the benefits of studying creative writing at the university. As a teacher and holder of two degrees in the field, he knows a thing or two about it.
Please tell us something about you and what you are working on.
My name's E. Christopher Clark and I published my first novel, Missing Mr. Wingfield, in October 2017 to celebrate turning 40. In 2018, I'm aiming to top that by releasing not one but two new books: Bad Poetry Night, a collection of poems that came out in April to celebrate National Poetry Month; and The Seven Wives of Silver, a collection of pulpy 19th-century stories set on Cape Cod that'll be out this fall.
What made you start writing in the first place?
In 2nd or 3rd grade, we were given the assignment to write the story of a picture we'd pasted to a piece of construction paper. That challenge — of turning visual inspiration into text-based storytelling — thrilled me, and working from photographs and drawings is still something I do today.

From the Staff at the Times of Israel:
A newly released satellite image of Egypt's Nile river shows the river colored deep red, bringing to mind the biblical first plague in which the waters of the great river turned to blood.
But, this time at least, it is not the wrath of god that is responsible for the river's crimson hue: The European Space Agency's Sentinel-3A satellite, which took the picture, uses a radiometer to measure infrared energy.
The heat radiated by vegetation around the river is therefore responsible for the red color.
The satellite, launched in February, is designed to monitor environmental changes. It is the third of more than a dozen "eyes in the sky" that make up the Copernicus program, which the ESA describes as the most sophisticated Earth observation system ever launched.

I'm Tatiana, the Dubious Hausfrau and I am so pleased that you found your way to my corner of the interweb. Like super duper pleased. See, look how pleased I am!
The Dubious Hausfrau came into being after I burnt myself out working non-profit. So I walked away. I had completely lost the work/life balance. My husband suggested I blog the journey and the dubious hausfrau was born. I was super lucky that when we moved and I started blogging our expat adventure that the name of my blog worked perfectly.
Fun Facts...
I'm in my 30's and live in Switzerland with my husband. We moved here in 2011 when he was offered a job with the Universal Postal Union (UPU) which is a special department of the United Nations. I'm a writer and in mid-2014 I started working part-time at the UPU in the English Language Typing Pool. We moved here from Canada where we were both born and raised. I moved a lot as a child so I saw more of Canada by the time I was 12 than more people have in their entire life.
Winnipeg is generally where I call home though. I was born there and that's where I always end up. It's not home really but it's the place I have the strongest attachment to. It's there where I not only played high school rugby but also where I started my roller derby career. Yes. I play roller derby. I'm known as Jam Buster on the track. I coach and skate here in Switzerland. When I'm not writing, formatting documents or skating I'm cooking, baking, mixing drinks and generally leaving lots of projects half finished.
My willing accomplice...
My husbands name is Johnathan. Known mostly around my blog as either "the husband" or "John". I generally only call him Johnathan when I need to get his attention. He loves his job even though it takes him away from home a lot. He installs and trains people on money transfer software that is designed to be used through a countries postal system. Not only is he a airport lounge expert but he is also a Kansas City Barbecue Society certified barbecue judge (yes this is exactly what it sounds like), the oldest of 5 and from a small town in Manitoba that I had never heard of.
As not to bore you I will give you the coles notes of our love story;
- We met working together at a Summer day camp held at our University in 2003.
- Before John met me he had had nothing but a lot of really weird/awkward/bad first dates (remind me to tell you about the time his date tried to convert him to Christianity.)
- Before I met John I had been in a long term relationship with a boy I had thought I was going to marry. We had dated from ages 16 to 19. Yup. He dumped me over the phone about 6 weeks before I met John.
- We got hitched in July 2006 in front of about 80 of our friends and family.
Expat Living...
From the moment we realized we were going to be stuck with each other for the rest of forever John and I set in motion a plan to one day live overseas. We figured if we kept putting it out to the Universe and seeing that as our end goal we would one day end up in Europe. In 2008 John applied for a job in Geneva. When he got the in-person interview we told everyone. Then he didn't get the job (at least I got some good chocolate out of it.) So after much damage control we vowed that we would keep our mouths shut next time until things were certain. That second chance came June 30, 2011 when we found out we were moving to Switzerland. We kept very few people in the loop this time. This was very much "need to know" information. We arrived here with two suitcases each and backpack each. Oh and my derby gear. We rebuild our life with the contents of those suitcases and many trips to Ikea.
Why I blog...
Other than to hear myself talk? Because what started out as a way to find myself evolved into a way for our friends and family find us on our adventures and our way to say "we're okay." And then later as a way for other expats and trailing spouses to find out they're not alone in this truly weird thing that is expat living. It's also a way for me to document this incredible gift of an adventure we're on. I'm also very passionate about blogging the good, the bad and the scratchy of our life here. It's not all chocolate, cheese, travel and cocktails. No. Sometimes its homesickness, frustration and self-doubt.
So like I said welcome to my corner of the interweb and please enjoy coming along on this adventure with me.

This was a fun walk. Went down from the picnic area to the lake. Walked through the campsites to Hagler Lake. Then around the lake and back up to the car. The most annoying thing were all the jets landing at CLT other then that a great hike.
