Nederlanders kunnen aardig wat besparen op hun energiekosten door te kijken naar de grootste sluipverbruikers in huis. Dat zijn apparaten die ook energie gebruiken als ze op stand-by of ’uit’ staan.

A new day. A new chance to succeed.
Some days, I got nothin'.
Or at least feel like I do.
In truth it's never true even if I tell myself it is.
One positive thing. Every morning. Day after day.
Relentless.
Just one small thread to hang a day on.
I write it down and send it out to the world.
And in the doing, I find something positive. Sometimes hope. Sometimes peace, in 500 characters or less.
Even on days I got nothin', I have that.
I hope you have something, too, #today
A Rare Sighting of the Pelican Eel...
The pelican eel's most notable feature is its large mouth, which is much larger than its body. The mouth is loosely hinged, and can be opened wide enough to swallow a fish much larger than the eel itself. The lower jaw is hinged at the base of the head, with no body mass behind it, making the head look disproportionately large. Its jaw is so large that it is estimated to be about a quarter of the total length of the eel itself.

[12:04] Bram de Smit uit Harich: ‘Ik kan geen noot lezen maar daar wordt de muziek leuker van’
Klassieke muziek klinkt in de schuur van de boerderij van Bram de Smit en Theunie Wassenaar aan de Lorbuorren in Harich. “Het houdt de steenmarters weg”, verklaart Bram de muziek en voegt eraan toe: ‘Ik vind het ook prachtig hoor’.
It’s so wonderful to inspire and collaborate as colleagues and friends. Exchange-portrait-session on a windy walk with Simon.

So, practically. If Canada were to join the EU, what steps would be required? We'd obviously need to apply, like other countries. Certainly greater presence in Brussels.
Would we need to adopt the Euro? I'd think so, but not sure if that is a good idea.
We'd have to upgrade a lot of our standards
It is called Enlargement. Seems appropriate for the era we are in.

Enlargement happens when new countries join the European Union. This has taken place several times in the EU’s history, each time transforming both the EU and the countries that join.European Union

My jointer restoration project, still sitting at the old place. Paused for now, but not forgotten. Was in the middle of this when we finally found the right homestead.
Need to make space for it here first. Preferably with a foundation, so I don't have to move it again.
And then find about six strong elephants to help me load it onto a trailer.
Problems for another time.

We should think about abolishing them. In government and in private sector.
