A massive clash in the Western Conference is the lone midweek game before an NBC Sports Network audience as Seattle Sounders FC play host to Real Salt Lake at CenturyLink Field. The teams are separated by just three points in the West for what could be a playoff preview – the teams also played in the Western Conference Semifinal Series a year ago, with RSL advancing. Real come into the game riding a three-game league winning streak after their 2-1 win at the LA Galaxy, while Sounders FC snapped a three-game winless skid with a 3-0 home win against Portland.

The teams are meeting for the third time this season. Fabian Espíndola netted the game's lone goal for an RSL win May 12 at CenturyLink Field, then the teams played to a scoreless draw July 4 at Rio Tinto Stadium.
The clubs met last year in a tense Western Conference Semifinal Series, Real winning the first leg 3-0 at Rio Tinto Stadium, then advancing on aggregate despite a 2-0 loss at CenturyLink Field in the return match.

Sounders FC goalkeeper Bryan Meredith was credited with two saves on the evening and was beaten in the 52nd minute as striker Álvaro Saborío hit the back of the net following a ball to the middle, but the goal was ruled out for offside.
Real goalkeeper Nick Rimando was called upon to make one save for the match.
REAL SALT LAKE (4-3-1-2): Nick Rimando - Kenny Mansally (Jonny Steele 79), Kwame Watson-Siriboe, Nat Borchers, Chris Wingert - Will Johnson, Kyle Beckerman, Luis Gil (Ned Grabavoy 62) - Javier Morales - Fabian Espindola, Alvaro Saborio.
SEATTLE SOUNDERS FC (4-4-2): Bryan Meredith - Zach Scott, Jeff Parke, Jhon Kennedy Hurtado, Leo Gonzalez - Mauro Rosales, Brad Evans (Andy Rose 64), Servando Carrasco, Alvaro Fernandez (Marc Burch 85) - Fredy Montero (Cordell Cato 73), Eddie Johnson.
Seattle Sounders FC put an end to their three-game winless streak in emphatic fashion, rolling to a 3-0 victory against the Portland Timbers on Oct. 7 at CenturyLink Field. Sounders FC are in third place in the Western Conference with 52 points from 31 games.
Seattle took the lead in the 25th minute. Osvaldo Alonso put in a beautiful through ball that Christian Tiffert dummied, allowing it to roll to Adam Johansson, who then crossed it toward a streaking Fredy Montero, but Mamadou Danso first deflected past goalkeeper Donovan Ricketts for an own goal.
Sounders FC extended the lead to 2-0 when Brad Evans found Eddie Johnson wide open at the top of the penalty area, and left completely unmarked he easily put it past Ricketts for his 14th goal of the season.
Seattle made the score 3-0 in the 62nd minute, when Montero poked his own rebound back in after a scramble in the box, beating Jack Jewsbury to it as the Timbers captain tried to clear it and putting it in for his 13th goal of the season.
Sounders FC head coach Sigi Schmid made no changes to the team that reached a scoreless draw with Vancouver Whitecaps FC at BC Place.
SEATTLE SOUNDERS FC (4-4-2): Michael Gspurning - Adam Johansson, Jeff Parke, Jhon Kennedy Hurtado, Leo Gonzalez (Marc Burch 77) - Mauro Rosales (Andy Rose 87), Christian Tiffert (David Estrada 88), Osvaldo Alonso, Brad Evans - Fredy Montero, Eddie Johnson.
The game drew a crowd of 66,492, the seventh-largest crowd for a regular season game in Major League Soccer history, and the second-largest for a standalone game (not part of an international doubleheader).
"This is just absolutely phenomenal. It's a reflection of the community, it's a reflection of the sports interest for the city of Seattle – just what the people are all about here. Our fans are the best," said Sounders FC head coach Sigi Schmid. "No offense to the Portland fans, I think they're great and they support their team to the hilt, but there's nothing better than the Seattle Sounders fans."
For just the second time this season, Schmid ran out the same team in back-to-back matches (also doing in July 28-Aug.5).
"It's important to keep evolving and to keep evolving as a group. I think we played this lineup, as well, against Chivas down there. The more time they get together the better it is," said Schmid. "Certainly with Leo dropping out we can bring in a Burch. There's Steve Zakuani that can still step in and play. Mario Martinez, when he's still around, can step in and play. David Estrada is coming back, Sammy Ochoa has played well. We still have options that we can bring, but it's good right now to get ourselves into a rhythm and for that group to get some understanding because they really haven't had a lot of time together."
Eddie Johnson scored his 14th goal in the win against Portland – nearly matching his total of 15 goals scored in his last season in the league, 2007 when he played for the Kansas City Wizards.
Fredy Montero scored his MLS single-season career-high 13th goal. Montero, who has scored in double digits in goals in each of his four MLS seasons, has 47 goals since coming to the league.
"The movement from Fredy and Eddie was phenomenal, so credit to them. It makes it easier when they are moving and playing with each other," said midfielder Brad Evans. "We talked about it before the game, if they are physical then they will win the headers and the physical duels. That makes it a lot easier for the midfielders to make plays. From that standpoint, we played to our game plan and we executed. We were fortunate to get three goals."
There could be a change in the strike pair at midweek as Eddie Johnson will be with the U.S. national team for its match vs. Guatemala in Kansas City on Tuesday. Johnson scored both goals for the USA in their 2-1 win vs. Antigua & Barbuda over the weekend.
After suffering a clash of heads with Timbers striker Bright Dike, Jhon Kennedy Hurtado received a facial fracture – while he was able to finish the Portland match, he is listed as doubtful on the club's injury report for the midweek game.
"He doesn't need surgery or anything for it, so now it's a matter of being careful the first few days because there's blood buildup and you don't want to mess up the sinuses or anything," Schmid said. "But then there's a question of, can he play? Is there some kind of mask that can possibly be done to help him get out there and play with a mask? So those are things we're exploring and those are things that we're looking into."
There's another injury concern as Leo Gonzalez suffered a hamstring strain that has also left him doubtful for this weekend.
The win also put Sounders FC in position to win the Cascadia Cup, the fan-organized competition between the three Pacific Northwest clubs. If Vancouver defeats Portland this weekend, Seattle will claim the trophy.
"We put ourselves in the best position possible. We're in a position now where they have to go to Vancouver and win," Schmid said. "Anything short of a victory gives the Cascadia Cup back to us, and in a year where we had four of the six games on the road and they had four of the six games at home, I think that's a big tribute to our team."
Real Salt Lake extended their winning run to three games in impressive style, coming back for a 2-1 win against the LA Galaxy on Oct. 6 at The Home Depot Center. Real are in second place in the Western Conference with 55 points from 32 games.
The Galaxy took the lead in the 15th minute. Juninho was given space to operate from a Sean Franklin throw-in on the right flank and arced a cross to the left side of the RSL box, where Robbie Keane measured it, and crushed a low, left-footed volley through the goalmouth and inside the right post.
Yet Real were level barely eight minutes later. Alvaro Saborío played Javier Morales clear after Fabian Espíndola dummied a pass to the semicircle, Espíndola then stroking home a low blast from the left side of the box.
RSL made it 2-1 less than three minutes later. Espíndola slipped into space above defenders Omar Gonzalez and Sean Franklin to powerfully head home Morales' cross from the right wing.
RSL head coach Jason Kreis made two changes to the team that strolled to a 4-0 victory against Chivas USA on Saturday evening at The Home Depot Center. Jamison Olave came into the back four for Chris Schuler, and Jonny Steele replaced Will Johnson in midfield.
REAL SALT LAKE (4-1-3-2): Nick Rimando - Tony Beltran (Chris Schuler 84), Jamison Olave, Nat Borchers, Chris Wingert - Luis Gil, Kyle Beckerman, Jonny Steele (Yordany Alvarez 77) - Javier Morales (Paulo Junior 90) - Fabian Espindola, Alvaro Saborio.
It was a third consecutive victory for Real, matching their season-long winning streak (also: March 31-April 7 and May 12-June 16).
"It's huge. LA is right behind us in the playoff race. We need to finish second or third place so we can avoid that wild card spot," said defender Tony Beltran. "It's a big statement, but mostly it's good for ourselves. We want to keep this going. We've said that as far as we are considered the playoffs started weeks ago. We want to keep getting results week in and week out and get through October and November."
It was the third win for Real this season after allowing the first goal – but their first since May 5. Still, it was the second time they'd conceded first against the LA Galaxy at The Home Depot Center and come back to win.
"I was really interested to see what our response would be. A lot of teams, even ourselves, in some patches of the season, and in prior years, would fold up shop and just succumb to more and more goals and more and more pressure," said RSL head coach Jason Kreis. "I think our guys handled it in the exact right way. They stayed calm and realized that we would still get chances. And, what a fantastic play by the players involved on that first goal. I think it really changed the flow of the game."
"The good thing is we came back from a 1-0 hole. [Teams that do that are] the kind of teams that can win the championship – when you're losing and you can come back you're actually showing that you can go far in this league," said Fabian Espíndola.
Espíndola continued his hot streak, getting both goals in the Galaxy win. In the last three games – all RSL wins – Espíndola has three goals and three assists.
"He's been there for us. He wants to prove to his teammates and his team that he's here and he wants to play. He wants to prove to the league that he's one of the best forwards in this league. He's been putting forward that effort for a while now, but it's really starting to show," said goalkeeper Nick Rimando.
It was the second 2-goal game this season for Espíndola – the other also coming at The Home Depot Center, June 16 in a 3-0 win vs. Chivas. In four games this year in Carson, Espíndola has scored 5 goals and added 3 assists. It was the fourth multiple-goal game of his RSL career.
"I like to play against LA. This is a huge field, it's so difficult for defenders to mark and I think that's good for us. We're a team that's good with the ball so it works because the other teams get so tired when they don't get the ball in those spaces," said Espíndola.
Added Kreis: "I guess he likes this stadium. He was spectacular tonight. Obviously, the two goals were quite nice and special. He was good for us defensively and trying to find spots to help out the rest of his team on the other side of the ball. It was critical."
Alvaro Saborio assisted on Espindola's first goal; the strike partners have combined for five goals and four assists in RSL's last two games.
Javier Morales also continued his return to form, collecting an assist for a third consecutive match. His nine assists are tied for his second-most in a single season in his six years in MLS; he had 15 in 2008.
"The key was to be patient," said Morales. "We knew that maybe they'd score early at home, so we had to be ready — play our game. It is a 90-minute game so we had to be patient and believe in ourselves. I believe the last couple games we have been improving every game, and today, I think we played one of the better games of the year."
Canadian international midfielder Will Johnson missed the victory due to the recent birth of his newborn daughter, Arabella Capri, who arrived the Wednesday evening before the match.


How did a vacation rental startup convince people to open up their homes to the masses?
By targeting potential travelers with pretty pictures of other people's home.
According to a Google case study released today, a photo- and video-heavy Airbnb display ad campaign more than doubled bookings in less than nine months and increased listings more than eightfold over the same time period.
Taylor says the goal of the campaign was to boost bookings and increase awareness for the online marketplace that matches travelers with those willing to rent a spare room, apartment, or home (or even, depending on your budget, a castle). But he added that a halo effect of the campaign was to encourage users to list their own crash pad as a rental option too.
Since the ad campaign's launch early this year, he said, the number of nights booked increased from about 800,000 to more than 2 million and the number of listings climbed from less than 10,000 to more than 80,000. Christopher Lukezic, director of communications for Airbnb, said the current number of active listings is about 100,000.
In addition to the photos, the campaign included YouTube videos explaining how the site works and reached a global audience by targeting Web users consuming travel content and retargeting those who had previously visited the site.
But Lukezic said the company's rise is attributable to recent marketing efforts, along with several other factors, such as the design and functionality of the product, community engagement and publicity.
Even despite a PR debacle this summer, when a host was robbed by Airbnb guests, according to Lukezic, user response has been overwhelmingly positive.
"Word-of-mouth marketing has been the biggest driver of success for us," he said.
And, Lukezic added, as the company pursues international growth, display advertising is performing especially well.
"We've started to reach a level where display is working really well for us," he said. "From a marketing perspective, it's the right thing at the right time."


A new strategy to improve the quality of meals served in the UK's schools has been revealed.
The School Food Plan was written by the founders of the Leon restaurant chain Henry Dimbleby and John Vincent and has received the support of the secretary of state for education Michael Gove.
It hopes that by boosting the standard of the food in schools, both the health and academic performance of children will be improved. This will certainly be of interest to catering equipment suppliers, as schools are an important client for many firms.
According to the School Food Plan, there a number of problems caused by poor quality dinners being served to students. One of the most worrying is obesity, as approximately one in five children are overweight by the time they leave primary school at the age of 11.
The plan warned that the cost of treating obesity-related illnesses is already placing a heavy burden on the NHS - roughly £10 billion annually - and if action isn't taken to ensure children are healthier this will only increase in the coming years.
Ensuring students are eating nutritious food while at school could go a long way to achieving this.
Mr Dimbleby and Mr Vincent claimed the standard of school lunches has improved dramatically in recent years, although they believe a number of schools are still serving food that is "too bland, boring and beige".
However the real issue may be that not enough children are eating school dinners. According to the plan, just 43 per cent of students consume a school-cooked lunch, while the majority of the remaining 57 per cent either bring in food prepared at home or buy a meal outside of school.
This is worrying, as those children that buy their own dinner tend to purchase junk food, while the contents of a packed lunch are often unhealthy. According to the plan, just one per cent of meals prepared by parents at home meet the nutritional standards that apply to school food.
Indeed, the problem of students buying unhealthy meals has become so severe in Salford, Greater Manchester that the local council has considered imposing a regulation that will ban fast food outlets from selling to youngsters before 5pm.
The School Food Plan claimed improving the food they serve will be good for schools themselves, as well as making children healthier. It said that approximately £1 billion is spent on packed lunches annually and if this was invested in school dinners instead, it could have a significant positive impact.
Furthermore, many schools are actually losing money on the meals they serve, as take-up of more than 50 per cent is required to simply break even.
To try and solve these problems the School Food Plan has laid out a detailed set of recommendations. These include making school meals more nutritious and appetising, as well as serving them in a pleasant and welcoming environment.
There is also a focus on educating head teachers about how to improve their school's "food culture" and making cooking lessons a mandatory part of the education curriculum.
"We hope this plan will help to create a generation of children who enjoy food that makes them healthier, more successful and, most importantly, happier," Mr Dimbleby and Mr Vincent concluded.

Mac OSX Lion and CAD software
Mac OSX Lion screen capture
Written by David Basulto
https://www.archdaily.com/152769/mac-osx-lion-and-cad-software
Yesterday Apple released the latest version of their operative system: Mac OS X Lion. I started using it yesterday and it works like a charm on my Macbook. At a first glance, there's a lot of focus on handling all your applications thanks to features like Mission Control (an improved view of everything running on your computer) and Launchpad (a new way to organize your apps). Other interesting feature is Airdrop, which will allow you to easily share files with your co-workers. There is also a lot of focus on security, back up, system recovery and versions of files, that I know will be very useful for architects.
But what about the software we architects use on a daily basis? A word of advice before you upgrade:
Graphisoft Archicad r14/r15: Both versions work (and according to @ArqErvey it works faster) with Mac OS X Lion, but there is a small bug related to zooming that has been already documented and should be patched soon. Read the official announcement.
Google SketchUp 8: Not yet supported for use with OS X 10.7. There are several known issues. Google SU team has stated that they are already working on it, fix should be out soon.
AutoCAD 2011: Currently not supported on the Mac OS X 10.7 (Lion) operating system. If AutoCAD 2011 for Mac is installed on Lion, undesirable side effects can occur, including issues with printing/plotting, Customer Error Reporting (CER), and more. Autodesk is working on a Service Pack to address these problems.
Update: readers inform on our Facebook page that Vectorworks runs well, but there are some minor issues that will be addressed by Nemetschek.

October data pointed to a stronger improvement in India's service sector, with an accelerated upturn in new work underpinning quicker rises in activity and jobs. Cost inflationary pressures eased, resulting in a softer increase in selling prices. Meanwhile, business sentiment remained positive, but was hampered by political uncertainty.
At 52.2 in October, the seasonally adjusted Nikkei India Services Business Activity Index posted in expansion territory for the fifth straight month. Moreover, rising from 50.9 in September, the latest figure pointed to the quickest rate of growth since July. According to panellists, improved order flows supported the pick-up in output.
With manufacturing production also showing accelerated growth, the seasonally adjusted Nikkei India Composite PMI Output Index improved from 51.6 in September to 53.0 in October. This reading highlighted the strongest expansion in private sector activity since July.
In addition to rising for the eighth successive month, new business at services firms displayed the strongest upturn since July. Lifting growth was favourable market conditions, greater client bases and fruitful advertising. Similarly, growth of factory orders climbed to a four-month high, pushing the pace of expansion in private sector new business to the second-strongest in two years.
Indian service providers continued to add to their payrolls. The increase in employment was the fourteenth in as many months and the second-fastest since March 2011. Job creation also gathered pace in the manufacturing sector, but was weaker than recorded in its service counterpart.
Outstanding business at services firms continued to increase in October. The rate of backlog accumulation was the most pronounced in six months. Companies that reported higher levels of unfinished work mentioned delayed client payments as a key reason. Conversely, goods producers made further inroads into their backlogs, which fell for the second straight month.
Reflective of higher staff costs as well as greater food and fuel prices, service providers expenses rose in October. The rate of cost inflation moderated from September's ten-month high, however, and was below its long-run average. With purchasing costs among manufacturers also rising at a slower pace, input price inflation across the private sector abated.
Similarly, charge inflation at service providers cooled during October. Panellists that raised selling prices mentioned the pass-through of greater cost burdens to clients. Nevertheless, some companies reported having avoided price hikes due to competitive pressures. By comparison, a marginal and softer increase in factory gate charges was recorded.
Although services firms retained an optimistic view towards growth prospects, confidence waned in October. Positive sentiment was supported by expectations of greater inbound tourism, marketing efforts and investment plans, while political uncertainty hampered confidence. The degree of optimism was at a 20-month low. Equally, sentiment among manufacturers waned to the weakest since February 2017.
Commenting on the Indian Services PMI survey data, Pollyanna De Lima, Principal Economist at IHS Markit, and author of the report, said, The PMI surveys brought positive news of stronger economic growth at the start of the third quarter of FY 2018/19, together indicating a welcome rebounded in private sector expansion from September's four-month low. A stronger upturn in services activity complemented the faster rise in manufacturing production reported last week.
Cost pressures faded in October, but service providers continued to report rising costs, especially for food and fuel. At the same time, a robust expansion in workforces - one of the best seen for over seven-and-a-half years - added to firms expenses. The waning of cost inflation, coupled with competitive pressures, resulted in only a marginal uptick in charges.
A positive outlook is by no means assured, however. With business expectations about future activity dropping to the lowest for 20 months in both the manufacturing and service sectors, firms are becoming more guarded in the face of growing uncertainties. The sustainability of current market conditions and political worries both weighed on optimism and pose downside risks to growth.

How climate change could change the way we die
A new study predicts more deaths from injuries in a warmer world.
By Sarah DeWeerdt
Global warming of 1.5 °C could result in an additional 1,603 deaths from injuries each year in the United States, an international team of researchers reported yesterday in the journal Nature Medicine. They calculated the death toll from 2 °C of warming at 2,135 excess injury-related deaths yearly...
1,603? Are they sure it's not 1,602 or 1,604?
Dave Middleton describes his Bibliography:
Over the past few years, I have been publishing most of my climate change and energy articles directly to Watts Up With That?
My name is Dave Middleton. I have been a geoscientist in the evil oil industry since 1981. I have a BS in Earth Science (Geology concentration) from Southern Connecticut State University and I minored in Mathematics... my favorite hobby… Debunking the junk science of radical environmentalists…Particularly the junk science of anthropogenic global warming.
I use the phrase "junk science" quite often... junk science is what happens when scientists become so focused on the results that they are trying to obtain, or in reinforcing the current paradigm, that they discard inconvenient data and exaggerate the value of supporting data... The classic example of this occurred 500 to 600 years ago when the Ptolemaic (geocentric) Solar System was upplanted by the Copernican (heliocentric) Solar System...
The field of climate science has been dominated by one ruling theory over the last 20 years or so – The Enhanced Greenhouse Theory... and many other organizations involved in climate science and policy have tunnel-visioned in on the hypothesis that anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions (primarily carbon dioxide) have driven climate change over the last 200 years. They have clung to this ruling theory despite the fact that the data and observations are increasingly un-supportive of that theory.

CO2 Emissions, Fossil Fuel Use and Human Longevity
It is patently false and borderline fraudulent to claim rising CO2 is enhancing human mortality rates, as many often do, when the data clearly demonstrate there are more people on earth today who are living longer and better lives because of rising CO2 and fossil fuel use.
TWO BENEFICIARIES OF RISING CO2
Those of you who have been following our new Greening of Planet Earth Confirmed video series, know that nothing could be further from the truth. Fossil fuel use and the CO2 emissions that are a byproduct of its combustion are not causing a climate crisis, but are instead providing great benefits to humanity and nature alike."

LET'S NOT BE BEASTLY TO THE MURDOCHS
The Daily Beast reports:
FIDDLING WHILE OZ BURNS
Rupert Murdoch's younger son and his wife issued a rare public rebuke of the family's media empire and its promotion of climate-change skeptics during Australia's bushfire crisis.
Lachlan Cartwright
Senior Daily Beast Reporter
In a long-simmering rift between factions of the Murdoch family over climate change, Rupert's younger son, James, and his activist wife, Kathryn, are attacking the climate denialism promoted by News Corporation... a spokesperson for the couple exclusively told The Daily Beast as wildfires rage in Australia.
"They are particularly disappointed with the ongoing denial among the news outlets in Australia given obvious evidence to the contrary."
The extraordinary public rebuke from Kathryn and James comes as Australia has been ravaged by the worst fires seen in decades... with an estimated 1 billion animals feared dead...
One longtime News Corp executive, who asked to remain anonymous for fear of retaliation, described the comments by James... as an intentional attack on Lachlan and Rupert.
"They are pissing inside the tent and that's unusual. It's evidence of how high tensions are within the family over climate change. The majority of people who work here agree with James. We are hoping this may be the tipping point," the exec said.
A day later, News Corp columnist Andrew Bolt wrote in The Herald Sun:
"Let's assume you're silly enough to think global warming is causing worse bushfires around the world. (In fact a recent NASA study found that the area burned by fire has dropped 24 percent over 18 years.)… True, the world has warmed slightly as it rebounds from the little ice age that stretched from 1300 to around 1870, but can we cool it on this panic? In that time of warming, life expectancy has shot up, world grain crops have set new records, and the death rate from extreme weather has been slashed by 99 percent..."
[Rupert Murdoch] was forced to address the climate issue at News Corp's annual general meeting in New York in November
"There are no climate-change deniers around, I can assure you," Murdoch Senior responded while also touting that the company had "reduced our global carbon footprint by 25 percent, six years ahead of schedule."
Last week, a News Corp staffer based in Australia, Emily Townsend, sent a damning all-staff email...
"I have been severely impacted by the coverage of News Corp publications in relation to the fires, in particular the misinformation campaign that has tried to divert attention away from the real issue which is climate change to rather focus on arson (including misrepresenting facts)," she wrote."I find it unconscionable to continue working for this company, knowing I am contributing to the spread of climate-change denial and lies. The reporting I have witnessed in The Australian, The Daily Telegraph, and Herald Sun is not only irresponsible, but dangerous and damaging to our communities and beautiful planet that needs us more than ever to acknowledge the destruction we have caused and start doing something about it."
The email was quickly deleted from News Corp employees' inboxes.
ON A CLEAR DAY IN VANCOUVER YOU CAN SEE THE DEAD SEA
THROUGH THE FOREST FIRE SMOKE
This Is How We Live Now
A year's diary of reckoning with climate anxiety, conversation by conversation.
By Emily Raboteau
Some scientists say the best way to combat climate change is to talk about it among friends and family — to make private anxieties public concerns. For 2019, my New Year's resolution was to do just that, as often as possible, at the risk of spoiling dinner. I would ask about the crisis at parent-association meetings, in classrooms, at conferences, on the subway, in bodegas, at dinner parties, while overseas, and when online; I would break climate silence as a woman of color, as a mother raising black children in a global city, as a professor at a public university, and as a travel writer — in all of those places, as all of those people. I would force those conversations if I needed to. I wrote them all down.
At last night's New Year's Eve party, we served hoppin' John.
Nim said that when he used to visit relatives in Israel, he could see the Dead Sea from the side of the road, but on his most recent trip, he could not. It was a lengthy walk to reach the water, which is evaporating.
Chris responded that the beaches are eroding in her native Jamaica, most egregiously where the resorts have raked away the seaweed to beautify the shore for tourists.
After losing her home in Staten Island to Hurricane Sandy, Lissette bought an RV with solar panels and has been living off the grid, conscious of how much water it takes to flush her toilet and to take a shower, I learned at Angie's house party.
On this evening's trip on the boat Walter built, he claimed with enthusiasm that we might extract enough renewable energy from the Gulf Stream via underwater turbines to power the entire East Coast.
Moreover, Walter predicted with the confidence of a Swiss watch, no intelligent businessman will invest another dime in coal when there is more profit to be made in wind, solar, and hydrokinetic energy.
After Hurricane Irma wrecked her home in Key West, Kristina, a triathlete librarian, moved onto a boat and published a dystopian novel titled Knowing When to Leave , I learned over lobster tail.
We ate vegetable quiche at Ayana and Christina's housewarming party, where Christina described the Vancouver sun through the haze of forest-fire smoke and smog as looking more like the moon.
When I see those brown recycling bins coming to the neighborhood, said a student in Amir's class at City College in Harlem, it tells me gentrification is here and our time is running out.
NO WONDER THE ANTHROPOCENE FEELS WARMER
Human body temperature has declined
steadily over the past 160 years
By Rodrigo Pérez Ortega Jan. 10, 2020 , 1:55 PM
It's a number everybody knows by heart—our bodies are supposed to be an average 37°C. But that number may be outdated, according to a new analysis of body temperature records going back to 1860. The study suggests the body temperature of the average U.S. man has dropped by 0.6°C since the Civil War, KQED reports. (A similar drop was found in women.) Other studies had already established these newer, lower baselines, blaming faulty thermometers for the discrepancy. But the new research suggests the original number—established in the 1850s—was correct, and that body temperature has declined gradually ever since. That drop may be a product of lower overall levels of inflammation, thanks to antibiotics, vaccines, and improved water quality, the authors report this week in eLife. Modern technologies, such as central heating and air conditioning, could also help explain the trend.

People in SW1 talk a lot about 'diversity' but they rarely mean 'true cognitive diversity'. They are usually babbling about 'gender identity diversity blah blah'. What SW1 needs is not more drivel about 'identity' and 'diversity' from Oxbridge humanities graduates but more genuine cognitive diversity.
We need some true wild cards, artists, people who never went to university and fought their way out of an appalling hell hole, weirdos from William Gibson novels like that girl hired by Bigend as a brand 'diviner' who feels sick at the sight of Tommy Hilfiger or that Chinese-Cuban free runner from a crime family hired by the KGB. If you want to figure out what characters around Putin might do, or how international criminal gangs might exploit holes in our border security, you don't want more Oxbridge English graduates who chat about Lacan at dinner parties with TV producers and spread fake news about fake news.
By definition I don't really know what I'm looking for but I want people around No10 to be on the lookout for such people.
We need to figure out how to use such people better without asking them to conform to the horrors of 'Human Resources' (which also obviously need a bonfire).

ONE KOALA IS A TRAGEDY,
A MILLION BILLION ANTS IS A STATISTIC
WIRED reports from Australia:
"The ferocious bushfires have killed at least 25 people, with 15 million acres scorched so far. On south Australia's Kangaroo Island, perhaps half of the koala population has been killed. One estimate puts the bushfires' total tally at over a billion mammals, birds, and reptiles, but that doesn't include other animals like insects, whose toll could be much, much higher. One... estimates that more than 3 trillion insects from one family alone, the rove beetles, may have perished so far. "
But beetles tend to be far outnumbered by ants, and as Oz boasts 985 species of the colonial creatures, accounting for perhaps 20% of the mass of the continent's biosphere, some quadrillions of pismires may have perished as well, making a remake of Picnic At Hanging Rock an inevitable addition to the list of catastrophes arising from climate change.

THROW ANOTHER CONTINENT ON THE BARBIE, MATE
IT'S TIME FOR THE SEVEN O'CLOCK NEWS
SPOTS A NOT VERY DEEP FAKE FROM DOWN UNDER-
A YEAR'S WORTH OF BUSH FIRES COMBINED BY A PHOTOSHOP WIZARD INTO ONE VERY SCARY WALPURGIS NIGHT:
En Australie, depuis septembre, les incendies ont brûlé près de huit millions d'hectares dans tout le pays. Les images sont terribles et spectaculaires. Et comme souvent sur les réseaux sociaux, des internautes les relaient pour exposer au monde l'étendue de la catastrophe.
Une image a été particulièrement virale. Il s'agit d'une carte de l'Australie sur laquelle on aperçoit des zones orangées qui sont censées montrer les incendies en cours. La photo est particulièrement impressionnante.
« Une terrifiante image satellite de l'Australie »,
« Une photo satellite qui parle d'elle-même »,
« L'Australie en feu vue du satellite ! »,
ont commenté plusieurs utilisateurs de Facebook.
Mais, contrairement à ce que prétendent les commentaires, cette image n'est pas une photographie prise par un satellite. Explications.
POURQUOI C'EST MAL INTERPRÉTÉ
L'image a été réalisée par Anthony Hearsey, un artiste australien qui « se spécialise dans la photographie et la postproduction », comme il est précisé sur son site personnel. Il l'a publiée le 5 janvier sur les réseaux sociaux, notamment sur Instagram. Dans la légende, il explique que cette carte est une image 3D conçue à partir de données satellites de la NASA, sur une période d'un mois. Les incendies qui ravagent l'Australie ont débuté en septembre 2019. Il indique aussi que l'échelle a été « exagérée » :
« Une petite visualisation 3D des incendies en Australie. Cela a été créé à partir des données du site FIRMS de la NASA (spécialisé dans les données satellites concernant les incendies) entre le 5 décembre 2019 et le 5 janvier 2020.
Ce sont toutes les zones qui ont été touchées par les feux de brousse. L'échelle est un peu exagérée, en raison de la lueur du rendu. Notez également que toutes les zones ne continuent pas à brûler. »
AND 2021 IS THE YEAR WE BLAME CLIMATE CHANGE ON
GREEN WATERMELONS AND BUNGEE JUMPING WALRUSES
2020 Is the Year We Storm the Green Barricades!
If you don't like the sound of that 'we' fine, I'll take 'em on my own... The Green Blob — aka the Climate Industrial Complex — is one of the most insidiously dangerous and oppressive forces in the world today and it's time we hit back hard.
Green ideology is evil. It's killing our jobs, it's brainwashing our kids (and stealing their future), it's despoiling our landscapes, it's murdering our wildlife, it's corrupting honest science, it's enriching the most disgusting, cynical people in crony capitalism, it's driving up the cost of living, it's holding back our economies, it's hamstringing business, it's burning our homes…
How dare these nauseating green zealots try to lecture us...
Latest case in point are the bush fires ravaging Australia. Every month, every week, every day practically, there's a story somewhere in the world that captures the wanton idiocy of the green movement.
…This week, it just so happens, the eye of Green Sauron has decided to fix on Australia's bush fires – and use them as an excuse to ramp up the scare about 'climate change.'
As I demonstrate pretty comprehensively here, the Australian bush fires have nothing to do with climate change. The reason they are so widespread and intense, rather, is the result of misguided green policy.

That time when @realDonaldTrump read and retweeted WUWT
Anthony Watts / 50 mins ago
From the "heads will explode now if they didn't before" department.
Being the most-read website on climate in the world has its advantages – we reach a lot of people. It also has disadvantages, such as there's such a volume of information flowing that we sometimes miss things. That's the case here.
Source: https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/362660033646952449
Back in 2013, before he was president, Mr. Trump clearly read the article I compiled, and came to the conclusion of his headline: "1970's global cooling alarmists were pushing same no-growth liberal agenda as today's global warming "
Here's the article:
https://wattsupwiththat.com/2013/03/01/global-cooling-compilation/
It is nice to know that we (and I say "we" because WUWT is a collective effort) had an effect on his thinking, which may have helped his decision to remove the U.S. from the disastrous Paris Climate Accord.
Thanks, Mr. President, for the recognition back then, and thanks for keeping the U.S. out of that U.N. driven climate train wreck.
Yuuuuuge hat tip to WUWT regular "NJSnowFan" for bringing this to my attention.

Vastavam web: Australian Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull said on Wednesday he will deliver a national apology to victims of institutional child sexual abuse and their families on October 22. The upcoming apology was sparked by a five-year inquiry into child sexual abuse which delved into more than 8,000 cases of sexual misconduct largely committed at religious and state-run institutions responsible for the safety of children.
Turnbull said on Wednesday the government would adopt 104 of the 122 recommendations posed by the inquiry, called a Royal Commission, which includes a national redress scheme that provides financial and legal services to victims. The government is still considering the remaining 18 recommendations, including a proposal that Australia introduce a law forcing religious leaders to report child abuse. It is rare for the Australian government to issue a national apology, which is reserved for egregious misdeeds where the state has played a role.

Thanks for this Anne. I met her once when she visited our feminist house meeting in Upper Hutt in the 1980s. She was generous and incisive, and for us living in the 'burbs it was a highlight of that group that I have never forgotten.


This remodel consisted of two projects, separated by ten years, the first being the den and dining room renovation, and the most recent-a kitchen, family room, front entry, mudroom and laundry addition (within the garage).
The design motif is a combination of maple and cherry woods, in trying to aesthetically improve upon the typical home builder look that the homeowners were wanting to move away from. A design centered more around the needs of their growing family has been achieved.

Craig Field To Get U.S.'s First Remote Tower ATC Center
Published: June 3, 2022 Updated: June 4, 2022
Image: Advanced ATC
The Selma Economic Development Authority has announced plans to set up a Remote Tower Air Traffic Control Center at Craig Field (SEM) in Selma, Alabama. The project will be led by Valdosta, Georgia-based air traffic control academy Advanced ATC Inc. and conducted in partnership with Spain's Indra Corp., which will provide staffing, software and logistics support. The center is expected to be the first of its kind in operation in the U.S. and is designed to allow air traffic controllers to "perform all the functions of a traditional control tower from a different location through the extensive use of cameras, real-time video and other advances."
"Remote towers represent an important and innovative step in airspace modernization efforts in the U.S., and I'm excited to see Advanced ATC establish its pioneering operation at Craig Field," said Secretary of the Alabama Department of Commerce Greg Canfield. "This virtual tower center represents another example of how our state is at the leading edge of trends shaping the future of aviation and aerospace for the U.S."
Advanced ATC plans to invest $4.7 million in the Remote Tower Air Traffic Control Center along with hiring 28 people for Craig Field operations in the first year. In addition, Advanced ATC intends to establish an international training academy at SEM to "provide operational training and certifications for the remote tower air traffic controllers." A timeline for the project was not announced.

Well, this takes all of the fun out of buzzing the tower.

Full time space based ADS-B everywhere … mark my words !

Step 1: "We don't need people on-site."
Step 2: "We don't need people."
Richard G. June 7, 2022 At 2:23 pm
Do we really need people? I mean every kid now has A.D.D.
You really want them… 'controlling' your flight?
This is exactly what I envisioned 30 years ago when playing computer games that graded my ATP check ride. I was an ATC radar tech and saw this coming back then, even without ADS-B.
Rich K. June 4, 2022 At 8:29 am
Can't tell if this is an optimistic statement, a pessimistic statement, or simply an objective statement regarding the shifting of operations from direct human operation to machine operation.
Arthur J F. June 4, 2022 At 9:00 am
Let me guess, the whole thing hinges on one public internet connection.
That was my concern with ATC a long time ago… yes, in many cases everything depends on one line of communication. And has for decades.
. June 4, 2022 At 10:01 am
On the bright side, no one is going to ask you to "Call the Tower." (Altho if there is a violation, I suppose that there will be video – altho in another country?)
Cameron G. June 5, 2022 At 12:29 am
Can still call the tower. Only the call won't go to the camera tower, but the remote, dark room with pissed-off controllers in it.
Roger t. June 4, 2022 At 11:49 am
Well isn't it nice that those controllers can be on the "left coast" somewhere and be getting paid to run the Selma tower. That way on payday they spent their paychecks in anywhere else not Selma. Doesn't that sound nice. Way to go "Selma Economic Development Authority".
Rational K. June 6, 2022 At 3:26 pm
Left coast of Spain?
Yes… but that is Portugal… they talk funny there like the kooks talk funny in California… 😜
Klaus M. June 4, 2022 At 12:19 pm
This is like the first moving map GPS. It will start out crude and nominally helpful but become expected. A decade from now most all airports will have remote towers and bring back the old classic FSS/Unicom but include 24/7 traffic separation.
Even airports that only have a couple hundred operations a day will have a remote tower with weather, traffic, ground and ground services' information. Of course the lowest bidder will provide the controllers. CTAF will be uncommon and most pilots won't understand how to use it. Kinda like CTAF is now. 😉 "Airport WXYZ, this is airplane N123, is anyone in the pattern?"
No… it will go from person controlled to computer controlled. Get out of line and the computer will report you… kind of like red light cams and speeding cams.
No more screwing around.
. June 4, 2022 At 6:29 pm
I'm not a Union guy. But I wonder what the National Air Traffic Controllers Association thinks about this. And, more crucially, what they will do about this.
Kevin K. June 4, 2022 At 8:16 pm
Nothing. They don't have a leg to stand on. Its not an FAA tower or even government funded. They have nothing to fight for. If the union gets involved somehow in some way the project will explode in cost 10 fold. As far as what they are thinking….they, like most unions, are not there for their membership but more for their political power and membership revenue.
When I was a member of PASS, they did nothing really but make a paid position for someone to hang out with management… they usually ended up in management. Never once saw a union rep, actually help a union member.
There was talk 30 years ago to make all ATC private. I responded, who will insure them? There will no longer be government protection.
And I wonder if there will be "self-driving" Controllers coming to a Tower near you? (I.e., AI.)
Peter B. June 4, 2022 At 8:36 pm
London city airport has had a remote tower for the past year without any major issues I am aware of.
https://www.nats.aero/news/london-city-is-first-major-airport-controlled-by-remote-digital-tower/
FNL is 90 percent done with this project. https://www.flynoco.com/about/remote-tower/
Additionally NATCA is on board with the FNL/RTS program. I believe this will make it easier for the hard to staff facilities due to their cost of living, airports such as ASE and ACK. The program could also be fiscally responsible if the government doesn't screw it up. These remote towers could be located at a large TRACON or ARTCC's thus saving the government money because they would no longer have to maintain a tower/equipment at the actual airport.
Andrew E. June 5, 2022 At 3:36 pm
I know of two other remote towers in the US… Leesburg, VA and Loveland, CO. Not sure if there's more, but this one most certainly isn't the first.
Shhhh!… this is to make someone feel special. Wink wink 😉
. June 6, 2022 At 6:26 am
This is not the first! There is at least one at JYO and somewhere in Colorado I think.
KckC K. June 6, 2022 At 7:21 am
Oh great! So now controllers have to watch the radar AND video screens? That's a 100% increase in workload. Attn. Controllers present, future, and wannabes – there will NEVER be a good time to quit sniffing glue.
Karrpilot . June 6, 2022 At 8:41 am
So say a pilot without ADSB flying into a remote airport runway, and another pilot flying in with ADSB was cleared by the remote tower, better both be looking for traffic. Although that is always a good idea, it becomes even more so with automated.
Flyer D. June 6, 2022 At 12:48 pm
What support would a corporation from Spain contribute to this project?
China controls airspace for drones now… do you feel safe?
Ed S. June 6, 2022 At 2:17 pm
Seems like a lot of money and a bunch of people to work 7-8 aircraft per hour.
(38,559 operations/yr. 105/day, avg 7-8/hour)
I think the numbers were over exaggerated… for the money of course.
Auburns airport has more operations… but it is white.
Dave S. June 6, 2022 At 3:11 pm
Every non-Fed tower controller should be looking over their shoulder. Once your tower building is outdated/needing repairs, the remote tower will take your positions. Yes, you could get a job at the "Remote Center" for tower ops, but you'd be moving to a larger city, most likely, with the same pay. Sounds a lot like the Lockheed FSS takeover.
Red J. June 6, 2022 At 6:50 pm
Fact Check. Not the first one in the US. More like the 3rd.

My understanding is that they are promoting it as the first remote tower center, not the first remote tower, in the U.S.
Center……. OK…we are tracking planes with cams at cruise altitude. 😜


Well, to be fair, 2015 was a year of extreme experimentation — I kept purchasing stuff and had barely enough time to really try it out and see if I liked it, because surprise — here's another package for me! I did a little detox towards the end of the past year, had a little Marie Kondo moment, and promised to only keep things that "spark joy".
So here I am, kicking off the year with a pledge to fully obliterate the hoard monster in me, and to have enough space and time to enjoy the things around me — things that are truly my favourites.

A few dates and points of interest for September. Enjoy!
September 13, 1857: Milton Hershey born.
September 19, 1881: Death of President Garfield.
"[I]n order to have any success in life, or any worthy success, you must resolve to carry into your work a fulness of knowledge—not merely a sufficiency, but more than a sufficiency. In this respect, follow the rule of the machinists. If they want a machine to do the work of six horses, they give it nine horse power, so that they may have a reserve of three. To carry on the business of life you must have surplus power. Be fit for more than the thing you are now doing. Let every one know that you have a reserve in yourself; that you have more power than you are now using..." — James A. Garfield, "Elements of Success—Address Delivered in Spencerian Business College, Washington D.C., June 29, 1869."
"Young men talk of trusting to the spur of the occasion. That trust is vain. Occasions cannot make spurs, young gentlemen. If you expect to wear spurs, you must win them. If you wish to use them, you must buckle them to your own heels before you go into the fight. Any success you may achieve is not worth having unless you fight for it. Whatever you win in life you must conquer by your own efforts, then it is yours—a part of yourself." —James A. Garfield. "Elements of Success—Address Delivered in Spencerian Business College, Washington D.C., June 29, 1869."
For anyone interested in Garfield, I highly recommend the excellent book, Destiny of the Republic: A Tale of Madness, Medicine, and the Murder of a President.
September 27, 1827: Happy birthday, Hiram Rhodes Revels!
In September, 1878 (when the very lightest bicycles weighted around 35 lbs and most were even heavier), W.S. Britten rode 220 miles in a single twenty-four hour period. His remarks about this superhuman feat: "Roads fair, wind slight. Lost way three times." Source: "Road Riding" Appendix VI to "A Bicycle Tour in England and Wales" by Alfred Dupont Chandler. Boston: A. Williams Co. 1881. p. 134.
Vegetables.- Artichokes, asparagus, beans, cabbage sprouts, carrots, celery, lettuces, mushrooms, onions, peas, potatoes, salading, sea-kale, sprouts, tomatoes, turnips, vegetable marrows - various herbs.
Fruit.- Damsons, figs, filberts, grapes, melons, morella-cherries, mulberries, nectarines, peaches, pears, plums, quinces, walnuts.
"Strolling along trails in the Washington woods where paths cleared by feet have allowed light to angle into the undergrowth, a small trailing vine drapes itself over the evergreen bushes like tinsel on a Christmas tree. Rubus ursinus is the only blackberry native to the Northwest; its fruits are sweet and potently flavorful but modest in size, being only about as large as the nail on a woman's pinky finger. Northwestern tribes have long gathered these berries for food, either eating them immediately after harvesting or drying them for winter stor- age. They also used the leaves and roots to treat diarrhea, menstrual problems, and a variety of other medical issues. The Stl'atl'imx and the Coast Salish tribes told a story about the plant's origins that might have something to do with the way the thorny vines seem to chase the plants' flowers and fruit, or with the resemblance of the berries' juice to fresh blood. The traditional myth holds that a woman with a cruel husband fled up a tree to escape him. Her blood fell upon the earth and the blackberry sprang up.
Rubus discolor or Himalayan blackberry has no such myth about its origins; its introduction is a matter of historical record. The huge, arching brambles that appear anywhere with the barest scratch of earth (from abandoned lots to cracks in sidewalks) were introduced to North America in 1885 by Luther Burbank—the botanical wizard who invented rainbow corn, elephant garlic, Russet Burbank potatoes, Shasta daisies, crimson California poppies, and a wide array of other plants that have become ubiquitous throughout America. The blackberries descended from Burbank's seeds have gone feral in a big way. Every year in late summer, crowds of people swarm around bramble patches, gorging themselves on the huge, juicy berries and bringing home gallons more, yet there hardly ever seems to be a dent in the bounty. No matter how many humans and animals devour them, by early autumn the air turns heady with the wine-scent of thousands of remaining berries fermenting under their own thorns." --This Victorian Life,Skyhorse Publishing: 2015, p. 163.

Hello Sarah! I just recently found you and your husband and everything you do is so inspiring! I, too, have an incredible love for the Victorians but I wish I had the courage and drive to do all it is you do. I have read your nonfiction and am working through your lovely historical fiction, too.

Introduction to tech
Many of our customers ask us questions about the terminology our representatives use when talking about websites. Here's a quick course in the basics.
A domain is what's used as an address for your website and some other services. It's entered into the address field of your browser to open your website. The domain consists of two parts. The first is the prefix, such as "mycompany", and the second is the top-level domain, such as ".com". All doneWebs subscriptions include a domain.
Search Engine Optimization is the term we use for the application of techniques known to help increase a website's rating and availability when searching for specific keywords on platforms such as Google, Yahoo or Bing.
What is a personalized domain email account?
Most individuals and small businesses use a major email client, such as Gmail, for sending and receiving emails. However, you might have noticed that some busineses have email addresses with their own name after the "@", which is what we call their domain. As such, a domain email is an email address under your own domain, such as [email protected] It's that simple.

AV says:
Huh. Good on you guys for doing PGSM. I was in the middle of doing my own translation of PGSM, but seeing as you're doing it, I think that frees me up from doing it. But a few questions/suggestions:
1.) Why the avi format? Most fansubs these days use the mkv format to keep the video quality as high as possible. Are you afraid someone will use your scripts? And if so, why?
2.) Your subs are under the overscan, which means they're too low on the screen. I don't know what subbing program you use, but if you use Aegisub, then this can be rectified by going to Video > Show Overscan Mask and adjusting your Style to be above the blue section.
3.) What are you planning to do with Ami's conundrum in episode 5? I'm speaking of course about the name thing. At the end, she relents and calls Usagi by her name plus "-chan". I know the common way to handle "-chan" is to turn the person's name into a cutesy nickname, but that doesn't fit Ami's style of speech or personality, which is why I'm curious how you'd handle it.
Hikari-Sama says:
Thank you very much for watching our translations! We value your input. We'll respond to your questions one by one.
1.) We have experimented with a variety of video styles. AVI, in our personal experience, has been far more universal and has had a higher success rate over different devices and players than MKV does. Especially as MKV takes more processing power than AVI. AVI simply reduces the chances of things going awry. We have softsubbed subtitles planned for the future but there are very few people working on this project and we simply can't do everything at once. These softsubbed subtitles are likely to be MKV. This has nothing to do with "stealing scripts". Scripts will be (and have been) given on request as long as the person has good reason for wanting them.
2.) We are aware of overscans and also do use Aegisub. Though many of our musical releases have issues with overscans, our live-action releases should not. However, it is possible that some things may slip from under our radar especially where letters like "g" and "y" are concerned. This is most likely to have occurred where the line was changed late in the editing process. If you find any lines significantly over the overscan, please let us know which ones and we'll fix it for future releases. That said, we are confident that the vast majority of lines are above the overscan mark. However, we have had issues in the past with overscan marks on aegisub not being the same on different computers which is something we haven't been able to explain.
3.) We will be translating "Tsukino-san" and "Usagi-chan" as "Miss Tsukino" and "Usagi" respectively. We feel Miss Tsukino is appropriate for the context of the characters and the episode. Tthe important part of the translation is the transition from distant speaking to familiar speaking, that is, the switch from the family name to given name with "-chan" being more linked to the age and gender of the characters.
Translations can never truly account for every cultural and language aspect that occurs, instead we prefer to represent these ideas where possible using English unless, of course, it is a specific name that is unique to Japanese culture, such as "uirou" in a recently translated episode. The number of "quirks" in the Japanese language far extends beyond honourifics, despite this, many translation companies these days, for a variety of reasons, tend to include them. This is a relatively modern trend and has been a point of contention. Our translation style does not agree with the inclusion of honourifics as we feel that it loses accessibility and flow of the translation. That is not to say including honourifics is wrong in any way. Simply personal decision of the translator.
By all means, if you wish to translate the live-action series, there is no need for you to not translate it on our part. Translations are shaded by whoever is translating the work and therefore, different audiences will be more suited to a different kind of translation. Perhaps your translation will be more palatable to different people over what we produce.
Again, thank you for your feedback and we hope we have answered your questions clearly. If you have anymore, please feel free to email us at "seaofserenity.net@gmail.com"
Nekochi says:
I am personally really glad to see you doing hardsubs! I have a pretty hard time figuring out the .mkv format, so one of my biggest issues with Miss Dream is their insistence on constantly using it. If someone really wants a .mkv, Miss Dream already has all of PGSM subbed. I think Sea of Serenity is filling a gap for those of us who don't want to download a separate program that can watch .mkv.
