It's donation time again, probably the last of this year. I donated 150 euros
to Theo de Raadt. Happy Canadian Thanksgiving!

First Snowday of the Year
October 9th, 2013
I'm in Iqaluit, Baffin Island, Nunavut, Canada. It's near the arctic circle.
I came here 2 days ago. Yesterday we had a storm with gusts of 100 Km/H go
through which dumped a bit of snow. It is the first snowday in iqaluit of the
year. Temperatures are hovering around 0 degrees Celsius and are expected to
drop a little. Although I do not have pictures at the ready yet I did make
some pictures and I'll be sharing those soon. I'm in good health and spirits
and will be back in the south of Canada in 2 days and back in Germany in
3 days. Weather permitting of course.

September 26th, 2013
I'm in Toronto, and was on SVPRadio yesterday and it turned out very well.
Perhaps more later, I'm travelling to Saskatchewan soon.

e* came and went
September 23th, 2013
Both the equinox and the election (both start with e) came and went. Again
I voted for the Pirate party and we got 2.2% which is not enough for the
pirates to get represented in the Bundestag. I'll give the pirates one more
chance at the european elections but if they strike out (3 strikes) there then
I'm going to possibly vote for someone else next term.
As far as government I'd be happy with a grand coalition or a CDU-Greens
coalition. As I don't think the democratic parties want anything to do
with die Linke (who is the 3rd highest). Anyhow I knew it would come to
this but I didn't know the FDP would be so weak :-), but it's all better
this way anyhow.
I'm not a fan of the "Ueberhangs Mandat" which is a threshold that excludes
parties in parliament which get under 5%. 2.2% is worth around a dozen seats
in parliament so this is sorta undemocratic to prevent small votes.
As far as the impact that the pirates made, perhaps there will be a new
shuffling of parties next election. I'm hoping for more issues based on
the snowden revelations, and more politics regarding the Internet.

... is equinox and the federal german election. I'm gonna try voting for the
pirate party. Let's see if the clocks really do tick different in Bavaria
than in the rest of Germany.

Pirate Party got 2% in Bavarian election
September 15th, 2013
I did vote for them. And I feel a bit bitter. Anyhow perhaps in 5 years
there'll be another chance for them. It's good however that we got 2% in.

Next Sunday the planet will be at right angles between axis and sun. People
on the equator will have the sun directly overhead.
