Dossier Disclaimer
The information in this trip details document has been compiled with care and is provided in good faith. However it is subject to change, and does not form part of the contract between the client and the operator. The itinerary featured is correct at time of printing. It may differ slightly to the one in the brochure. Occasionally our itineraries change as we make improvements that stem from past travellers, comments and our own research. Sometimes it can be a small change like adding an extra meal along the itinerary. Sometimes the change may result in us altering the tour for the coming year. Ultimately, our goal is to provide you with the most rewarding experience. Please note that our brochure is usually released in November each year. If you have booked from the previous brochure you may find there have been some changes to the itinerary.
VERY IMPORTANT: Please ensure that you print a final copy of your Trip Details to review a couple of days prior to travel, in case there have been changes that affect your plans.
Itinerary Disclaimer
While it is our intention to adhere to the route described below, there is a certain amount of flexibility built into the itinerary and on occasion it may be necessary, or desirable to make alterations. The itinerary is brief, as we never know exactly where our journey will take us. Due to our style of travel and the regions we visit, travel can be unpredictable. The Trip Details document is a general guide to the tour and region and any mention of specific destinations or wildlife is by no means a guarantee that they will be visited or encountered. Aboard expedition trips visits to research stations depend on final permission.
Additionally, any travel times listed are approximations only and subject to vary due to local circumstances.
Important Notes
The rules and regulations controlling the Inca Trail and Machu Picchu are continually changing. Before embarking on your adventure to Peru it is very important that you familiarize yourself with the Inca Trail booking policies and guidelines as described in a document available on our website, at the following URL address:
Please advise at time of booking if you do not wish to hike the Inca Trail. Instead, you will have 2 nights in Cusco, travel by train for a night in Aguas Calientes, and join the hikers for the tour of Machu Picchu.
Portions of the Inca Trail will be closed for general maintenance during the month of February each year. Also, closures may occur at various times throughout the year due to inclement weather or other conditions beyond our control. During these periods, any tour affected will hike the Lares Trek.
4. Please note that this tour is a combination of several G Adventures tours. As such, your group CEO, fellow passengers, or vehicle may change between the individual tour sections.
5. Please note that this trip is a combination of multiple G Adventures tours. As such, the staff and/or particular vehicles operating your tour may change between tour segments. You may also expect some group members to join or leave the tour, between tour segments.
6. In our continued effort to support the rights of the porters on the Inca Trail, we would like ensure that they never exceed the weight limit for their packs as set out by the Peruvian authorities. Porters are allowed to carry no more than 6kg of personal belongings per hiker (for all other Peru treks the limit is 8kg). That means that including your sleeping bag, toiletries, clothing, etc, you are allowed a total weight of 6kg for the hike which will be carried in a duffle bag provided by our local office. Any additional weight must then be carried by you in your day pack. To help achieve this goal we recommend that you carry travel sized toiletries, that you bring sport sandals that can be worn with socks (which are lighter than running/walking shoes) and that you limit electronics to those that you are willing to carry. Any additional baggage can be left in Cusco, but is advised that you bring anything of value (eg. money, passport, credit cards, camera, etc) with you on the trek.
If at the end of your trek you felt your trekking guide and support team did an outstanding job, tipping is appreciated. The amount is entirely a personal preference, please see the Tipping section for guidelines.
It may be required to show a Yellow Fever certificate upon entering the country visited. Please check in with your local health expert for advice on Yellow Fever and other inoculations required for this area.
Please be advised during the wet season (Jan – April) if there are periods of severe rain some of the campsites on the Inca Trail may become unusable. In the interest of your safety, there may be changes made locally to the trekking itinerary if the conditions of the campsites are assessed to be unsafe.
Please note, in most cases, the entire group will not be hiking the Inca Trail together. Members of the group may choose to hike the Lares Trek or spend additional time in Cusco and the Sacred Valley instead of hiking. If you have chosen the Lares Trek or Cusco Stay you may be paired with members of other G Adventures groups for the trek, transportation, and activities included.
Group Leader Description
All G Adventures group trips are accompanied by one of our group leaders, a G Adventures representative, or an expedition team. The aim of the group leader is to take the hassle out of your travels and to help you have the best trip possible. They will provide information on the places you are travelling through, offer suggestions for things to do and see, recommend great local eating venues and introduce you to our local friends. While not being guides in the traditional sense you can expect them to have a broad general knowledge of the countries visited on the trip, including historical, cultural, religious and social aspects. We also use local guides where we think more specific knowledge will add to the enjoyment of the places we are visiting- we think it's the best of both worlds.
Group Size Notes
Max 18, avg 14.
Meals Included
26 breakfasts, 5 lunches, 7 dinners
Eating is a big part of traveling. G Adventures understands the importance of breakfast to start your day, we strive to include a basic breakfast wherever possible. A typical breakfast may include toast, coffee and tea, however this may vary depending on the city. Should breakfast not be included, your CEO can suggest some local options.
Travelling with G Adventures you experience the vast array of wonderful food that is available out in the world. Generally meals are not included in the trip price when there is a choice of eating options, to give you the maximum flexibility in deciding where, what and with whom to eat. It also gives you more budgeting flexibility, though generally food is cheap. Our groups tend to eat together to enable you to taste a larger variety of dishes and enjoy each other's company. There is no obligation to do this though. Your CEO will be able to suggest favourite restaurants during your trip.
For all trips please refer to the meals included and budget information for included meals and meal budgets.
Public bus, train, plane, hiking, ferry, 4X4.
Solo Travellers
We believe single travellers should not have to pay more to travel so our group trips are designed for shared accommodation and do not involve a single supplement. Single travellers joining group trips are paired in twin or multi-share accommodation with someone of the same sex for the duration of the trip. Some of our Independent trips are designed differently and single travellers on these itineraries must pay the single trip price.
Simple hotels (20 nts), hostels (5 nts, multi-share), overnight buses (3 nts), basic hotel on Salt Flats excursion (2 nts, multi-share), homestay (1 nt), camping (3 nts).
My Own Room Exceptions
Nights 6-7: Salar de Uyuni, Night 13: overnight bus, Night 17: Lake Titicaca homestay, Nights 22-24: Inca Trail or Nights 22-23: Lares Trek, Night 27: overnight bus, Nights 29-30: Colca Canyon, Night 31: overnight bus.
If you have chosen the Cusco Stay you will have a single room for nights 22-24.
About Accommodation
Please note that hot water shortages and power outages can be fairly common in Latin America (even in upgraded hotels and private homes). We appreciate your patience and understanding that these occurrences are outside of our control.
Multi-share Accommodation: Multi-share same-sex accommodation is used on this tour, as such, if you are travelling with someone of a different gender you will not be in the same room. For private accommodation please see tours in our Classic Travel Style.
Joining Hotel
For details of your joining hotel please refer to your tour voucher, G Account, the G Adventures App or contact your travel agent.
Joining Instructions
Officially the airport is called Ministro Pistarini International Airport, but it is commonly referred to as Ezeiza. It is situated 35 km (22 miles) from the city, about 40 minutes in a taxi. A taxi to the centre costs approximately $45 USD and can be arranged from the official counter inside the Arrivals area.
If you have paid in advance for an arrival transfer, a G Adventures representative will be at the airport to meet you. If for any reason you are not met at the airport, please call our local support line. If you are unable to make contact for whatever reason, please make your way to the joining point hotel via taxi.

A G Adventures Representative will organize a short meeting soon after arrival, during which you will meet other tour participants and receive information about general and specific aspects of the trip. A welcome note will be left for you in the hotel so you have all the necessary information regarding the meeting time. If you arrive late, s/he will leave you a message detailing what time and where you should meet the next morning.
Arrival Complications

What to Take
Most people automatically assume that the weather is hot in South America however the weather varies greatly. Be prepared for rain and thunder storms in the wet season (from December to March), especially in the Amazon. Temperatures of -10C and lower are frequent around Uyuni and the Altiplano (high plateau). It is best to layer clothes this allows you to accommodate clothing to varying degrees of temperatures and wet/dry/windy weather conditions.
We recommend using a backpack for your convenience, or a medium-sized suitcase if you prefer. A daypack is also essential for carrying everyday items. Space is limited on transportation, so there is a limit of one main piece of luggage per person. You will be responsible for carrying your own luggage.

Please note for trekking rentals credit cards are the preferred method of payment.
Laundry facilities are offered by some of our hotels for a charge. There will be times when you may want to or have to do your own laundry so we suggest you bring non-polluting/biodegradable soap.
Visas and Entry Requirements
All countries require a valid passport (with a minimum 6 months validity). Contact your local embassy, or consulate for the most up-to-date visa requirements, or see your travel agent.
Spending Money
Every traveller is different and therefore spending money requirements will vary. Some travellers may drink more than others while other travellers like to purchase more souvenirs than most. Please consider your own spending habits when it comes to allowing for drinks, shopping and tipping. Please also remember the following specific recommendations when planning your trip.
Money Exchange
The currency in Argentina is the Argentine Peso (ARS), in Chile the Chilean Peso (CLP), in Bolivia the Boliviano (BOB), and in Peru the Nuevo Sol (PEN).
Credit cards and debit cards are very useful for cash advances. Visa cards are the most widely accepted cards. While ATMs are widely available, there are no guarantees that your credit or debit cards will actually work in Latin America. Check with your bank.
You should be aware that to purchase products or services on a credit card a fee of 5%-10% usually applies.
Do not rely on credit or debit cards as your only source of money, a combination of US dollar cash and cards is best. Please bear in mind that cost of living in the southern cone countries (Argentina, Brazil, Chile) is much higher than the rest of South America, and in the case of Argentina, more comparable with Europe. Always take more rather than less, as you don't want to spoil the trip by constantly feeling short of funds.
We do not recommend bringing travellers cheques as they are very difficult to change in country.
CURRENCY EXCHANGE TIP: Please be advised that slightly torn notes, notes that have been heavily marked or are faded may be difficult to exchange. It is best to bring notes in fairly good condition, in denominations lower than 100USD (or equivalent).
As currency exchange rates can fluctuate often we ask that you refer to the following website for daily exchange rates: www.xe.com
Emergency Fund
Please also make sure you have access to at least an additional USD $200 (or equivalent) as an 'emergency' fund, to be used when circumstances outside our control (ex. a natural disaster) require a change to our planned route. This is a rare occurrence!
It is customary in Latin America to tip service providers such as waiters, at approximately 10%, depending on the service. Tipping is an expected – though not compulsory – component of your tour program and an expression of satisfaction with the persons who have assisted you on your tour. Although it may not be customary to you, it is of considerable significance to the people who will take care of you during your travels. There are several times during the trip where there is opportunity to tip the local guides or drivers we use. Recommendations for tipping drivers and local guides would range from $5-10 USD per day depending on the quality and length of the service; ask your CEO for specific recommendations based on the circumstances and culture.
If at the end of your trek you felt your trekking guide and support team did an outstanding job, tipping is appreciated. The amount is entirely a personal preference, however as a guideline, we suggest each hiker contributes the following to a collective pool.
Inca Trail:
Head guide: 10-25 USD
Assistant guide: 5-12 USD
Your trekking crew: 40 USD
Lares Trek:
Head guide: 10-25 USD
Assistant guide: 4-10 USD
Your trekking crew: 35 USD
Also at the end of each trip if you felt your G Adventures CEO did an outstanding job, tipping is appreciated. The amount is entirely a personal preference, however as a guideline $20-25 USD per person, per week can be used.

Please note inoculations may be required for the country visited. It is your responsibility to consult with your travel doctor for up to date medical travel information well before departure.
You should consult your doctor for up-to-date medical travel information well before departure. We recommend that you carry a First Aid kit and hand sanitizers / antibacterial wipes as well as any personal medical requirements. Please be aware that quite often we are in remote areas and away from medical facilities, and for legal reasons our leaders are prohibited from administering any type of drug including headache tablets, antibiotics, etc. When selecting your trip please carefully read the brochure and itinerary and assess your ability to cope with our style of travel. Please refer to the Physical and Culture Shock ratings for trip specific information. G Adventures reserves the right to exclude any traveller from all or part of a trip without refund if in the reasonable opinion of our CEO they are unable to complete the itinerary without undue risk to themselves and/or the rest of the group.
Please note your Adventure travels to high altitude. This is medically defined as anything over 8,000 feet (2,440 meters). Most people can travel to 8,000 feet with minimal effects. However, everyone reacts to altitude differently and altitude sickness can on set with some people irrespective of fitness and age. For details on how to best prepare and what to do in the unlikely event you are effected on your Adventure, please consult your physician.
Safety and Security
Many national governments provide a regularly updated advice service on safety issues involved with international travel. We recommend that you check your government's advice for their latest travel information before departure. We strongly recommend the use of a neck wallet or money belt while travelling, for the safe keeping of your passport, air tickets, travellers' cheques, cash and other valuable items. Leave your valuable jewellery at home – you won't need it while travelling. Many of the hotels we use have safety deposit boxes, which is the most secure way of storing your valuables. A lock is recommended for securing your luggage. When travelling on a group trip, please note that your CEO has the authority to amend or cancel any part of the trip itinerary if it is deemed necessary due to safety concerns. Your CEO will accompany you on all included activities. During your trip you will have some free time to pursue your own interests, relax and take it easy or explore at your leisure. While your CEO will assist you with options available in a given location please note that any optional activities you undertake are not part of your itinerary, and we offer no representations about the safety of the activity or the standard of the operators running them. Please use your own good judgment when selecting an activity in your free time. Although the cities visited on tour are generally safe during the day, there can be risks to wandering throughout any major city at night. It is our recommendation to stay in small groups and to take taxis to and from restaurants, or during night time excursions.
Protests and Demonstrations- Protests and demonstrations, even those that are well intended, have the potential to turn violent with no warning. Counter protests can also turn violent. Action by security forces to disperse demonstrators and protesters may occur at any time. If you are in an area where demonstrators or protesters are gathering, avoid the temptation of staying for a good photo opportunity and leave the area immediately.
Water based activities have an element of danger and excitement built into them. We recommend only participating in water based activities when accompanied by a guide(s). We make every reasonable effort to ensure the fun and adventurous element of any water based activities (in countries with varying degrees of operating standards) have a balanced approach to safety. It is our policy not to allow our CEOs to make arrangements on your behalf for water based activities that are not accompanied by guide(s).
Swimming, including snorkeling, is always at your own risk.
We take all prudent measures in relation to your safety. For ways to further enhance your personal safety while traveling, please visit:
A Couple of Rules
Illegal drugs will not be tolerated on any trips. Possessing or using drugs not only contravenes the laws of the land but also puts the rest of the group at risk. Smoking marijuana and opium is a part of local culture in some parts of the world but is not acceptable for our travellers. Our philosophy of travel is one of respect towards everyone we encounter, and in particular the local people who make the world the special place it is. The exploitation of prostitutes is completely contrary to this philosophy. Our CEOs have the right to expel any member of the group if drugs are found in their possession or if they use prostitutes.
Travel Insurance
Travel Insurance: Travel insurance is compulsory in order to participate on any of our trips. When travelling on a group trip, you will not be permitted to join the group until evidence of travel insurance has been sighted by your CEO, who will take note of your insurance details. When selecting a travel insurance policy please bear in mind that all clients must have medical coverage and that we require a minimum coverage of USD 200,000 for repatriation and emergency rescue. We strongly recommend that the policy also covers personal liability, cancellation, curtailment and loss of luggage and personal effects. If you have credit card insurance we require proof of purchase of the trip (a receipt of credit card statement) with a credit card in your name. Contact your bank for details of their participating insurer, the level of coverage and emergency contact telephone number.
Trip Specific Responsible Travel
The Problem
Peru's tap water is not potable; therefore most visitors and locals alike consume purified water, often from disposable plastic bottles. This results in a large amount of small plastic water bottles being used, most of which are not reused or recycled.
Just taking the example of 15 travellers on one G Adventures trip, if one person consumes 2 bottles a day, and there are 15 people on a 10 day trip, that's 300 water bottles – just for one group of travellers! As such, there are millions of water bottles used in a year in Peru, and plastic recycling is not an option in most places.
Our Solution
Water dispensers in hotels. Planeterra is working with our partner hotels throughout Peru to provide purified water, by means of a large water dispenser, to their guests, and this of course includes our travellers. Each individual staying at the participating hotels can refill their own bottles from the large water dispenser. This eliminates the need for the daily use and consumption of multiple single-use plastic water bottles.
Planeterra provides the start-up funds to each participating hotel for the purchase of two large water dispensers, and travellers are collaborating by paying about US$2.50, or just under the cost of one large bottle, per day, for access to an unlimited amount of purified water from the dispenser.
Thanks Paula
Paula Quiros, Planeterra Ambassador for Peru, is leading this initiative. As a CEO who has been leading G Adventures trips in Peru for several years, and a passionate naturalist and environmentalist, this has been a personal mission of hers, as well as a Planeterra initiative, to try to eliminate the need for, and use of, single-use plastic water bottles. Thanks to Paula and all of our participating hotels for helping to decrease our impact on Peru's environment.
Silver Mines in Potosí
Working conditions for miners were appalling, and a large portion of the indigenous population was decimated. African slaves were brought in to replace the native workers, and it is estimated that as many as eight million indigenous and African people died in the mines during the first three centuries of Spanish colonial rule. Unfortunately little has changed throughout time and working conditions have remained the same. Although this is not an excursion for everyone, we do recommend a visit as it is an eye-opening experience that gives you a chance to glimpse the realities of life in the Andes in general and more specifically in these mines however we do not condone the working conditions of the mine.
After your travels, we want to hear from you!

Day 1: Buenos Aires
Arrive at any time.
Included Activities:
Arrival Day and Welcome Meeting
Day 2: Buenos Aires/Salta
Salta, situated in the Lerma Valley of northern Argentina, is home to empanadas salteñas – a delicious local specialty. No visit to the town will be complete without giving them a try. In the evening, opt to experience a local celebration at one of the "Peña" folklore shows.
Plane (2.00 hour(s))
Day 3: Salta (1B)
Enjoy free time to explore the area. The scenic Quebrada de las Conchas and Cafayate, famed for its wine and vineyards, are recommended stops. The multi-coloured valleys in the foothills region of the Andes are sure to be a highlight.
Day 4: Salta/San Pedro de Atacama (1B)
In the morning, take a bus further north to the dry desert regions of Argentina and Chile. Stop in the little town of San Pedro de Atacama, on the edge of the Atacama Desert, the driest place on earth.
Included Activities:
Border Crossing (Argentina – Chile)
Local bus (10.00-11.00 hours)
Day 5: San Pedro de Atacama
Opt to try out sandboarding, go mountain biking, or visit the Valley of the Moon.
Day 6: San Pedro de Atacama/Salt Flats (1L, 1D)
Groups like to get creative with photography, as the endless white of the salt flats creates some great depth illusions that are fun to play with in photos.
Additional Notes:
Note: During the rainy season the locations visited may change due to some routes being covered by water.
We offer unique accommodation on the Uyuni Salt Flats. Instead of very basic refuges and homestays most operators use, we have upgraded to simple hotels that are equipped with solar panels to provide electricity and hot water. Rooms are multi-share and each has a private bathroom. Meals are made from local ingredients, most of which are grown on-site.
Included Activities:
Border Crossing (Chile – Bolivia)
Salt Flats Excursion
Local bus (1.50-2.50 hours)

Since 1979, Sanibel and Captiva residents and visitors have gathered on the shores of Lighthouse Beach to celebrate Christmas Eve through scripture and song.
Organized by the Sanibel Congregational United Church of Christ, this annual service-by-candlelight attracts hundreds of residents, visitors and worshippers of many denominations, all uniting on Sanibel's sandy shores to rejoice in the spirit of the season.
"It's a fairly informal sort of service made up of lessons and carols and texts of the season," said Reverend John Danner of the Sanibel Congregational United Church of Christ. "As we present the Christmas story in a very conversational sort of style, Christmas carols sung by all the gathered folk are interwoven throughout the telling."
Article Photos
Every year, thousands gather at Lighthouse Beach to celebrate Christmas Eve with a special, candlelight service.
The service begins at 5:30 p.m. on Christmas Eve, but Danner said that attendants should plan on arriving early.
"We strongly encourage folks to are strongly encouraged to come earlier than 5:30 because, in years past, there have been as many as 1,000 people who come to the service," Danner said.
Parking for the service is free and attendants are asked to bring their own beach blankets and chairs to sit on during the service. All participants will be provided with a candle for the service, but Danner suggests that attendants bring a flashlight because it will be dark when the service ends.
"During the service, an offering will also be taken to benefit local charities, including FISH (Friends in Service Here) of Sanibel and the Salvation Army," Danner said. "It's a lovely way to begin the Christmas Eve celebration, and even though Sanibel Congregational United Church of Christ sponsors the event, it really is a community service and we extend the welcome to not only island residents, but off-island residents and visitors. We want everybody to be a part of it."
For more information about the Christmas Eve service, call the Sanibel Congregational United Church of Christ, 472-0497.

Staff writer
It was a bittersweet moment for Amy Kjellin, director of Butler Community College of Marion, as she handed certificates and tokens of appreciation to three students graduating this semester.
For future students, Butler of Marion might have a different look, but will still offer the same services, Kjellin said.
Like most schools in the state, Butler Community College is trying to find ways to get the most out of its budget, which includes possibly moving the Marion campus to a new location as soon as next year.
"The school will still be here for students, and we'll still be in Marion County, but we might be in a different location than this," Kjellin said. "We have great high school participation and Allied Health enrollment and those programs will continue."
No decision has been made yet what cuts, if any, will be made.
Three students will graduate this year after completing nearly all of their classes at the Marion campus.
Jennifer Roland of Burns will graduate with high, Order of the Purple, honors and as a member of Phi Theta Kappa. She started at Butler majoring in secondary education but has since changed to liberal arts. She is also minoring in special education. She will walk at the graduation ceremony May 16 at Butler's El Dorado campus.
Roland had no credit hours before beginning at Butler more than two years ago, and has either taken classes online or at the Marion campus.
She decided to get her degree after raising a family. After graduation, she plans to complete her secondary education degree and return to Marion to teach.
Roland currently works as a paraprofessional at Marion High School.
Kerry Maag of Marion has been taking classes through Butler for four years. She currently works for Marion County Road and Bridge Department and part-time with St. Luke Living Center. She hopes to start her own business after graduating and getting her marketing or entrepreneur degree.
"I decided when I retire in a few years I want to do something different," she said. "So I started taking classes."
Maag is also a member of Phi Theta Kappa and is receiving her associate's degree in liberal arts.
Joy Dalke of Hillsboro began taking classes two years ago. She is graduating with an associate's degree in science and accounting. She hopes to complete a business degree in the near future.
"I started school 20-plus years ago," she said. "I went back because I wanted to better understand my job, but the more I went the more I thought, 'Do I want to do what I'm doing my entire life?'"
Dalke hopes to eventually become a teacher.
Maag said she will miss Butler of Marion because it feels like home.
"The professors have been really awesome and have gone out of their way to help us succeed and do well," Roland said.
"I'm going to miss this place," Dalke said.

Managing to actually beat the next Star Wars films into the world, the Fantasy Flight Star Wars RPG base set has, shockingly, arrived earlier than expected. Copying the Pathfinder Beginner Box method of release, Star Wars Edge of the Empire is also released in a beginner box format, coming with all the essentials for play. Included in the box is a quick-to-learn rule booklet that will teach anyone, even the most uninitiated roleplayer, how to play the game. Dice, pre-generated character sheets (which are ready-to-play), an adventure book, tokens, and much more are also included. Create your own galaxy far, far away by picking up this one, catch-all Beginner Box.
Maybe you haven't heard, but there's this movie called The Hobbit coming out this weekend. I don't know, people are excited. In a brilliant stroke of cross-marketing, Fantasy Flight has released a new Hobbit trick-taking card game. A head-to-head battle of good versus evil, The Hobbit card game has players taking on the roles of Bilbo, Gandalf, and Thorin to take on the forces of Smaug and Bolg. Each card has its own special abilities as well as associations with good or evil, which will benefit or harm them depending on the items being attached to them. Trust me, you're going to need something to keep you and your five friends busy while your sitting in line waiting for tickets.
In an effort to make an RPG system for every corner of the Warhammer 40K universe, the Only War Core Rulebook drops today. Focusing on the Imperial Guardsmen, Only War allows players to control any of the twelve specialties, whether that's the powerful Heavy Gunner or the beneficial Medic. The game also supports all forms of interaction with easy-to-understand rules capable of handling conversations to mass battles. Also, by the weird possibility that you're playing a 40K game without knowing anything about the universe, this rulebook comes with complete background details on the Imperial Guard and all their enemies.
The fire is rising, brother. And you just read that in Bane's voice.
Though he, technically, has nothing to do with Dominare, Bane's general revolutionary plan does share some similarities with the gameplay. It's all about influencing the citizens of Tempest with secret backdoor dealings, underhanded treachery, and cunning. Each player controls different agents of the underworld, sending them into eight different city districts to begin spreading rumors of a conspiracy that will upset the city's balance. In the end, its all about control and who possesses it.
Ticket to Ride continues to trek across the globe for its most recent map expansion packs, this time landing in Africa. Ticket to Ride: The Heart of Africa (beside being a minor reference to Joseph Conrad's famous short story) features an entirely original map of the country, complete with new terrain cards which specific different track colors for different geographical regions. Players can multiply their points by using them in conjunction with particular routes. As Ticket to Ride is one of the best family games on the stands since forever, so keep it fresh and interesting for yours by picking up this new expansion.
Wares! Fine wares! Get your fine wares right here!
Continuing from Catan Histories previous releases, Merchants of Europe is the newest stand-alone Catan edition. This augmentation of the basic Settlers of Catan rules has players controlling merchants and trading posts in various cities in Europe, attempting to expand their mercantile reach ever further. Ultimately, your goal should be to recruit as many new merchants as you can in an effort to build trading posts further from your original locations and acquire different commodities (i.e. sugar, wood, sheep, etc.) for trade and sale. Along with this, players must also build trading routes over which they will need to transport their goods, hoping they've built them in safe areas or else have their product pillaged from under them.

China's bike culture forges way into deadly traffic
BEIJING — In Taiwan, insurance salesman Zhao Yukuan did his parents proud.
"They taught me to obey traffic rules. I never ran red lights," he says.
Then Zhao moved to China. In car-choked, smog-bound Beijing, vehicles, cyclists and pedestrians compete to break the rules.
"I always found I was the only one waiting for the green light," says Zhao, 33, who arrived in 2012 and soon joined the jaywalkers.
Wearing a sandwich board, a box-like head mask and big hand signs bearing the Chinese character for "stop," Zhao atoned for his sins Thursday. At a busy Beijing intersection, he joined a group of volunteers on the final day of their year-long, daily promotion: "I promise not to run a red light."
Changing bad behavior remains an uphill struggle even in a police state. "Chinese-style road crossing," or jaywalking, has been the subject of many reports in Chinese media, embarrassing officials here.
Beijing and other cities began fining jaywalkers a year ago. But on a recent day in Beijing, plenty of people were caught crossing streets without a walk sign due to low awareness of the risk and lax police enforcement.
The results can be deadly. Over 60,000 people die in road accidents each year in China, according to the police, but national disease surveillance system statistics put the real toll at more than four times higher. By comparison, there were almost 33,000 road traffic deaths in 2010 in the USA, according to the World Health Organization's 2013 road safety report.
Though China has more than four times the population of the United States, the two countries have similar numbers of registered vehicles — about 250 million. Child fatalities in traffic accidents are over 2½ times the rate in the United States, the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences reported last year.
Chinese police claim some progress, such as fewer accidents with multiple victims. But "the traffic safety situation is far from optimistic, the burden of traffic accident prevention work is heavy, and the road ahead is long," admits Huang Ming, vice minister of public security.
Spotting dangerous driving in China isn't hard. It's not uncommon to see cars reversing on highways or speeding through crosswalks filled with pedestrians, some pushing infants in strollers.
Such behavior springs from an auto industry whose startling growth has outpaced legislation and administration, says Shi Jing, a road safety expert at Beijing's Tsinghua University.
China's car culture, on a significant scale, dates back only 10 years, he says, and its earlier bicycle decades weigh heavy.
"We all rode bikes in the past, and you could cycle as you pleased, there were no specific lanes," says Shi. "Today, people are not used to the car rules and still drive as they please, scrambling to get right of way."
As regular bike use fades, up to 200 million electric bikes now cruise China's roads. These e-bike users are former cyclists and wannabe car owners who take their bicycle culture and habits onto a more vehicle-like mode of transport, says Brent Powis, a road safety consultant for the World Health Organization.
Their ignorance of both traffic rules and e-bikes leads to "lots of risky behavior and a lack of risk awareness," he says.
Unlicensed and uninsured, speedy e-bikes are leading to a rising numbers of crashes, injuries and deaths, says He Jinglin, senior program officer on road safety projects for WHO in Beijing.
"Electric bikes are really the new road safety threat," she says. "We need to find ways to improve riders' knowledge, introduce licensing provisions for e-bikes and better enforcement by traffic police."
WHO research in Chinese cities showed that most bikes exceed national speed limits and few riders wear helmets, He said. WHO tries to change cultural attitudes by using social marketing approaches and social media platforms to reach the young drivers who most commonly display illegal behavior, Powis said.
Shocking videos of crashes that don't shrink from showing fatally injured people are common on Chinese television and websites as state-run media try to scare citizens into obeying the law.
And then there are the road volunteers.
Zhu Chaofeng, 26, a legal trainee and road safety volunteer, says his group's year-long efforts using banners to spread awareness have been supported and praised by the Beijing government.
"We chose to be silent because we don't have law enforcement power to stop the pedestrians, and we're afraid conflicts may occur," he said.
Zhu blames the long, 90-second wait between green lights for many infringements, and doubts even a tenfold increase from the current $1.50 fine would have much effect.
Meanwhile, child safety seats, most of which are made in China but exported, are finally achieving domestic attention if not sales, says Monica Cui, executive director of Safe Kids China, a non-profit.
Shanghai, which recently started requiring child restraints, "can be a model for China nationwide," says Cui.
But first car seat producers must convince Chinese grandparents that a child seat is safer than simply holding their grandchild. This intergenerational argument consumes many young Chinese couples, she says.
As for jaywalkers, Shi says China should cut them some slack and develop a better urban environment and traffic light system that enables pedestrians time to cross roads. In the most policed part of China, close to Tiananmen Square, several intersections this month introduced a metal barrier to stop cyclists and e-bike riders at red lights.
Traffic wardens grumbled at the tiring action of opening and closing the barrier and said some riders evade both the barrier and their protests.
"It's just a bad habit, not everyone is in a hurry," says Zhao from Taiwan, who hopes, with remarkable optimism, that China may resemble Taiwan in just two years.
He achieved at least one convert Thursday.
"I sometimes run red lights, when I'm running late," admitted accountant Wang Xiao, 25. "We can't solve this problem quickly. But I'll think twice next time, safety is more important."

One in a series of FAMILIAR FACES who will be at
Saturday's Basketball Alumni Night
A glance back at a few of the former Golden Eagle men's and women's players who are scheduled to be on hand Saturday night in Eblen Center when Tennessee Tech hosts its annual Basketball Alumni Night with a doubleheader against Tennessee State. Call (931) 372-3940 to order tickets.
During her Hall of Fame career as point guard from 1986 to 1990, Shawn Monday (second from right in 1989 photo, along with fellow seniors Melinda Clayton, Adrienne Black and Cecilia Ramsey) was one of the most popular players for coach Bill Worrell's team because of her wizardry with the basketball. In one game at Morehead State, she set an NCAA record with 22 assists. Three times named a team captain, she helped Tech win two OVC regular season titles and three tournament titles while compiling a 91-29 four-year combined record.
Inducted into the TTU Sports Hall of Fame in 2006, Shawn still holds the career record for most assists with 822. She also ranks third all-time in steals with 249.
Shawn was an Upper Cumberland sensation during her high school career at Clarkrange High School, helping to earn three consecutive Class A state championships. As a junior, she was named MVP of the state tourney.

After adding video and audio items to the encoding queue, you can encode and export them from the queue using presets or custom settings.
Your files begins to be encoded to your desired format, using your chosen preset, and in the location that you chose.
You can close the Encoding panel for optimum performance during encoding. View progress of the encoding process with the progress bars in the Queue panel instead.
Choose a video, audio, or still-image format from the Format menu. For more information, see File formats supported for export.
(Optional) Choose an encoding preset from the Preset menu.
Select Export Video, Export Audio, or both.
(Optional) Specify pre-encoding options, including cropping, trimming. For more information, see the Crop and trim source before encoding section.
(Optional) Set options for XMP metadata export. For more information, see Export and thin XMP metadata.
(Optional) Select Use Maximum Render Quality or Render At Maximum Bit Depth.
Note: Rendering at a higher color bit depth requires more RAM and slows rendering substantially.
(Optional) Select Use Frame Blending.
Specify a filename and location for the encoded file by clicking the underlined text next to Output Name in the upper-right section of the Export Settings dialog box and entering a filename and location. If you don't specify a filename, Adobe Media Encoder uses the filename of the source video clip.
Note: When the format is set to P2 Movie, the user-assigned filename is not applied. Instead, such encodes are given a six character alphanumeric name by Adobe Media Encoder. The Output Name is saved to the clip's metadata, and is shown as the clip name in Adobe Premiere Pro.
You can specify a destination folder in which to save the encoded file relative to the folder containing the source video clip. When specifying a destination folder, ensure that the destination folder you specify exists. If you specify a folder that does not exist, an error message informs you that the file cannot be encoded because the folder cannot be found.
Check Preferences > Specify Output File Destination, and click Browse to specify the destination of encoded files. For more information, see the Preferences section.
While an item is being encoded, the Status column of the encoding queue provides information on the status of each item. Adobe Media Encoder can encode multiple outputs from a single source simultaneously. However, source files are processed sequentially based on their order in the Queue.
You can continue to work in the application while encoding is in progress. You can add, remove, or reorder items in the queue or watch folder. However, outputs that are currently being encoded cannot be edited.
The item is in the encoding queue but has not been encoded. You can remove a file from the queue that has not been encoded and is not being encoded.
Done with Warnings Item has been successfully encoded but a warning condition exists. See the encoding and error logs for more information.
The user can skip one, or more selected files. With the files selected, choose Edit > Skip Selection.
Audible alerts when jobs completed (successfully and with errors)
Adobe Media Encoder has audible alerts. It plays an audible alert at the completion of the jobs in the Queue. A different alert sounds if any error conditions are detected. These alerts can be disabled in preferences, if you do not want to hear them.
During the encoding process, click the Start Queue button once more if you would like to pause the encoding process.
Hover over the status icon to see a tool tip with the error message. Click the status to open the log for any item for which encoding is has completed successfully, stopped, or failed.
Adobe Media Encoder encodes all sources in sequence, but encodes all outputs of a source in parallel.
Parallel encoding is on by default. To disable parallel encoding, select Edit > Preferences, and deselect Enable Parallel Encoding.
When you encode multiple outputs simultaneously, the Encoding panel displays a thumbnail preview, progress bar, and the completion time estimate of each encoding output.
In certain cases, export settings require an output to encode in serial rather than in parallel mode. In such cases, the queue returns to parallel encoding after temporary serial encoding is complete.
A. Add Source B. Add Output C. Remove Source/Output D. Duplicate
- You can associate multiple outputs with a source. Each output can have a different format, preset, and output file location assigned to it.
- You can reorder outputs in the output list. You can also reorder sources in the Queue. However, you cannot move them to other sources.
- Clicking the output file path opens the folder containing the encoded file. Previous to encoding, however, the Save As dialog appears.
- To change the output path and filename, click the Output File link for that output.
- To access an encoded file, click the Output File link for that output
- Use the Add Output button to quickly add an output to a source.
- Both sources and outputs can be duplicated. A duplicated source uses all the outputs from the original source.
Follow the steps below to change the Output File path for multiple outputs (at the same time):
- Select multiple outputs in the Queue using Shift-click or drag-select.
- Click the Output File link of one output in the current selection.
- Choose a path in the Select an output folder dialog and click Choose.
Selected outputs will all point to the new directory but retain their unique output filenames.
When encoding Adobe Premiere Pro sequences, choose Use Previews to use existing preview files (which have already been rendered and encoded) for the parts of the sequence for which they are available.
Launch Adobe Media Encoder from Adobe Premiere Pro to use preview files. Choose File > Export > Media in Premiere Pro to launch Adobe Media Encoder. Ensure that Match Sequence Settings is selected.

The Power of the Scriptures
Lay Hold upon Every Good Thing: Scriptures
The Answer in Verse Eight
Scripture Power in Tahiti
The scriptures can form a foundation of support. They can provide an incredibly large resource of willing friends who can help us. A memorized scripture becomes an enduring friend that is not weakened with the passage of time.
Pondering a passage of scripture can be the key to unlock revelation and the guidance and inspiration of the Holy Ghost. Scripture can calm an agitated soul, giving peace, hope, and a restoration of confidence in one's ability to overcome the challenges of life. They have potent power to heal emotional challenges when there is faith in the Savior. They can accelerate physical healing.
Scriptures can communicate different meanings at different times in our life, according to our needs. A scripture that we may have read many times can take on nuances of meaning that are refreshing and insightful when we face a new challenge in life.

Oscar hype is a very big deal in many places. Not so much in Columbus, I suppose, since most of the Academy Award nominated films are not shown locally. We''ll probably catch them, after the fact, on HBO.
"The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" is high on my list of "must sees." It was filmed in New Orleans, a truly photogenic city. Several of our friends'' homes make cameo appearances. That, and the fact that the script is based on an F. Scott Fitzgerald story, are certainly worth the price of admission. (Or the price of premium cable.)
Chris and I may, however, make the trip to "Starkvegas" to see "Slumdog Millionaire." The buzz about that film is truly seductive. It is a fantasy about a boy from one of the most impoverished places in India, who, amazingly, wins 20 million rupees on a television show.
The child is a product of a Mumbai ghetto that confines one million people in an area of about 1 square mile. He is part criminal, part beggar, part entrepreneur.
The majority of Americans have an attraction/repulsion for India. We love seeing romantic images of the Taj Mahal, jewel-colored saris and elaborate temples. But, we also cringe when phoning for "technical support," and hearing someone with a Ghandi-esque accent claiming to be "Tim" or "Mary." They''re taking our jobs while speaking English better than we do.
The reviews of this movie have brought back memories of a book that influenced me strongly in my late teens. "The Population Bomb," written by Paul Ehrlich, predicted mass starvation and other doomsday effects of over-population. The author described the streets of India, teeming with humans.
No matter that his predictions have since been debunked, the spell was cast. I have never forgotten the terrifying descriptions of that country and truly believe that book is the reason I am childless today.
Perhaps, many of my generation were alarmed by the impending horrors of human proliferation. We, as a group, reproduced less than our parents and unquestionably much less than our grandparents.
In some other countries, this was not the case. The residents of that Mumbai ghetto live the nightmare predicted in "The Population Bomb."
The view into India''s squalid underbelly has spawned a new travel trend -- visiting the misfortune pictured in "Slumdog Millionaire." (No, I did not make this up.)
Tourists from all over the globe journey to observe the sordid scene, and to examine (well, not too closely) the sad lives of the natives. Travelers touch the soles of their expensive shoes onto the filthy streets in wonder at this other world. Poverty as spectator sport. Who knew?
This sort of enterprise opens the door to so many vacation locales. Genocide in Darfur? The aftermath of hurricanes and earthquakes? Plane crashes? There is always a nice war going on somewhere. Traditional resorts should be very worried. They may need to provide more than spa treatments and pina coladas.
Do these visitors have too much money to spend? Just because you can do something, doesn''t mean you should do it. For heaven''s sake, destitution is not a floor show performed by the happy indigenous people. Do I have to explain that to you?
I think I''ve talked myself out of even seeing the movie. Maybe I''ll just stay in town and go see "Mall Cop" or a warmed-over "Pink Panther." After all, the bungling Inspector Clouseau could only have improved since his first incarnation about 40 years ago.
A two-star production may possibly be all my little brain can handle. Those in charge of choosing movies locally apparently think so. Should someone tell them adults actually buy theater tickets occasionally?
Poor Oscar, your favorites may be missed in our town. And, on the bright side, if the economy gets any worse, we may be presenting the U.S. as a pit stop on the "Hard-Times" world tour. Academy award-winning? Perhaps.

Los Angeles, Calif. - Walter Whitaker place second overall in the triple jump and Titans Charles Michinock and Gavin Couvrey-Jacobs won the two flights of the men's 400 meter hurdles Thursday to highlight Cal State Fullerton's performance at the Cal State Los Angeles Twilight Open Track and Field Meet.
