Health and Wellness
This is a website I developed to outline the 11 key steps to health. It has lots of useful, evidence-based information.
You'll find it here (in a new window).
The next link takes you directly to the 7th edition of my book on health and wellness. This 225 page book, in e-book format, contains all the information found in my health web site and a lot more, including summaries of over 450 studies found in medical journals.
Details on its contents can be found here (opens new window).
Travel in Europe by Motorhome and in BC by Sailboat
This blog covers about 2 years of travel with historical and current information on the many places visited – lots of pictures.
It can all be found right here (in a new window).
To read the blog in chronological order, start in the Archives section in October 2006 with our departure from Vancouver, Canada enroute to New York City via San Francisco, and the southern states. From NYC we took the Queen Mary 2 to England, the Chunnel and train to Brussels and eventually a "new" motorhome on to the south of France. Hopefully by then you will want to follow it through its various side routes, detours and nooks and crannies.
Summer, Fall and Spring in Whistler
Whistler, British Columbia, Canada especially after the 2010 Winter Olympics, is usually associated with winter sports. But there is a ton of activities to enjoy in the other three seasons.
Spring, Summer and Fall in Whistler - lots of pictures and information. (Opens New Window)
Sailing
This page tells you about my FORMER 70 foot sailboat on which I offered lessons and charters. She's now sold and the website is down but I put some pictures together because I loved her so much that she was difficult to part with. This way I can check her out whenever I want. It also gives me a quick way to answer questions I still get from various parts of the world about the boat.

Consulting
My leadership experience includes 10 years as an officer in the Canadian Navy; President of a Faculty Union; a national college organization; and 20+ years as a college and university dean. With this background I am useful to organizations interested in consulting on leadership; negotiations and mediation; excellence in hiring and selection practices; and academic and research policy development.

UNTD - University Naval Training Division
The UNTD was my route into the Canadian Navy. The programme ran at Canadian universities and naval reserve divisions from 1943 to 1966, they year in which I headed up the training of the last of the UNTDs - a small group of those officially enrolled and sworn in before the unified armed forces made a very unwise decision and cancelled the programme along with its equivalents in the army and airforce.
Ultimately this short-sighted decision led to the breaking of the connection between Canada's universities and military, resulting ultimately in the situation in 2011 where, with the completion of the service of ex-UNTD Senator Bill Rompkey (Newfoundland), there is Canadian Parliamentarian with military experience and service. More on the
UNTD can be found in this new window.
