Mind your hair extensions to keep them in the best condition possible. They are valuable accessories to your look and are actually quite easy to maintain. All you need to know is a few basic care instructions as outlined below. These tips can help you keep human hair extensions looking fabulous and lasting longer.
Be Extremely Gentle
When caring for hair extensions, brushing or styling the extensions gently can prevent the hair from falling out. Use a soft-bristled brush, start at the bottom and slowly work your way up. It is best to care for them more than you would your own hair.
Wash With Moisturizing Hair Care Products
Wash your extensions a maximum of 3 times a week with moisturizing hair care products. Because your extensions are not getting natural oils from your scalp to keep your hair in good condition, this will keep the moisture in from shampooing while at the same time not drying them out from over-shampooing
Use a Heat Protectent
Use a heat protectant on hair extensions to reduce the risk of heat damage whenever you use a heated appliance on your hair.
Deep Condition
Once a week, carefully put your extensions in lukewarm water and apply a bit of conditioner all over. Leave for around 20 minutes then rinse and let dry naturally-using a blow dryer will damage them if used too much. If necessary, put the dryer on a cool setting (almost as if it was wind).
Keep Ends Trimmed
As careful as you are, your human - hair extensions will most likely get split ends. To avoid letting the damage move up the hair shaft, trim the ends every 6 - 10 weeks. You can do it yourself using salon scissors, or go to a hairstylist.

Oh Henry!
What Henry James didn't do with Oliver Wendell Holmes (or anyone else).
The newest biography of Henry James is the work of a Vermont law professor who has written one earlier biography, Honorable Justice, The Life of Oliver Wendell Holmes, of the "great dissenter" on the Supreme Court in the first half of our century. Proceeding from the law into literature, Sheldon M. Novick tells us in a book titled Henry James, The Young Master--as if James were a young Mozart or a Paganini and didn't work hard to achieve literary mastery--that the celibate and sexually diffident novelist, who put most of his life into his art, was in reality a regular guy who "underwent the ordinary experiences of life." In fact, says Novick, he had an affair at the end of the Civil War with--yes, Oliver Wendell Holmes Jr.
This bit of news is quite startling. It upsets half a century of scholarship that seems to have clearly shown James was a firm bachelor with a "low amatory coefficient," as one of his doctors put it in 1905 in New York. But Holmes is not the only homosexual lover Novick claims for James. He also says that James had an affair with Paul Zhukovski, a Russian aristocrat James met in 1876 in the entourage of Ivan Turgenev.
Novick's attempt to find love affairs in James' life reminds me of the 1920s, when there were no biographies of James, and critics loved to speculate on the mysteries of his privacy. Van Wyck Brooks, a skillful writer of pastiche, produced his quasi-biographical Pilgrimage of Henry James to prove the novelist was a literary failure because he had uprooted himself from the United States. Edna Kenton, a devoted Jamesian in Greenwich Village, demonstrated in a biting review in The Bookman that Brooks used important James quotations out of context. Years later, Brooks confessed to having nightmares "in which Henry James turned great luminous menacing eyes upon me."
Another bit of imaginative projection upon James' life can be found in Ernest Hemingway's letters. This novelist, on learning that Brooks had written that James was "prevented by an accident from taking part in the Civil War," immediately incorporated this into his nearly finished novel, The Sun Also Rises. In Chapter 12, Jake Barnes refers to his World War I accident, and Gorton says, "That's the sort of thing that can't be spoken of. That's what you ought to work up into a mystery. Like Henry's bicycle." Barnes replies it wasn't a bicycle; "he was riding horseback." (In his memoirs, James spoke of having had a "horrid" but "obscure hurt." He had strained his back during a stable fire while serving as a volunteer fireman.) Hemingway had originally inserted James' name in the novel, but Scribner's editor, Maxwell Perkins, vetoed this. Hemingway insisted. They finally compromised on the "Henry" alone. F. Scott Fitzgerald wrote to Brooks, "Why didn't you touch more on James' impotence (physical) and its influence?" The castration theme was picked up by R.P. Blackmur, Glenway Wescott, Lionel Trilling, and F.O. Matthiessen in their critical writings.
W hat evidence does Novick offer for the James-Holmes "affair"? Just two French words James uses in his long and vivid notebook entry recalling his early days in Boston, where his family settled in a brick house in Ashburton Place near the State House. The words are l'initiation première--"first initiation." In the entry, James is writing generally of the "rite of passage" that inaugurated his literary career. He describes the strong emotions he felt at the assassination of Lincoln (on James' 22nd birthday); how he wept when Hawthorne died; and the dawning sense of freedom experienced after the war's end. He mentions also his first book review on English novel-writing, published in the North American Review, whose editors paid him $12, praised his writing, and asked for more. He does mention Holmes, but only to describe a brief visit he made to Holmes' mother to ask how her son was faring in England, and his own fierce envy of Holmes for traveling abroad while James remained at home.
These larger emotions apparently do not touch the single-minded Novick. He is caught by l'initiation première. "The passage seems impossible to misunderstand," he says. (For the full quote, which Novick does not provide,.) In a footnote, he asserts, "James had his sexual initiation in Cambridge and Ashburton Place." A bit enigmatically, he also says, "[I]t would be fatal to expand on that in the book for which these are the [foot]notes." We are left wondering why Novick thinks it would be "fatal" to have what would be a bit more evidence. And he still hasn't named James' partner. A sentence in which he appears to be rummaging around for explanations says that the companion "seems to be a veteran, an officer." He adds, "Henry hinted he was Wendell Holmes." But it is Novick who is doing the hinting. Holmes was a close friend of Henry's brother, William. Henry looked at Holmes with a certain aloofness.
And then, Novick gives himself away. He writes in another footnote that Holmes was someone with whom James "might have been intimate." "Might have been"? There's incertitude for you. My surmise is that Novick is trying to support his hypothesis of James' initial sexual experience, and that he picks the name handiest to him. Why not James' closer friends, John LaFarge or Thomas Perry? Novick seems to want to link his two subjects. It is clear the homosexuality doesn't bother him. He simply wants us to know that James was a sexual man and a loving person. Biographers often develop strange attachments to their subjects.
Novick's second "case" is as flimsy as the first, but it has more documentation. It is based on James' letters from Paris between 1875 and 1876. He has met Ivan Turgenev, the Russian master, and finds himself moving among assorted Russians. One of them is Paul Zhukovski, son of a Russian poet who tutored Alexander II when he was a prince. Reared in the royal court, Zhukovski is soft, dependent, spoiled, and weak-willed, but graceful and entertaining. James has never known any Russians, and Zhukovski becomes an agreeable companion; he is "picturesque," and while James tells his parents that "human fellowship" is not his specialty, the two get along very comfortably. They dine with Turgenev, and with countesses, a duke, princesses. They make sorties into cabarets and cafes. James reports that he and Zhukovski have sworn "eternal fellowship." One could read sex into this--as Novick does--but it sounds more like the drinking and singing that often takes place among young males, their swagger and "brotherhood." At every turn, Novick introduces suggestions of a love affair.
At the end of 1876, James moved to London. So far as we know, Zhukovski faded into the distance. James published seven books during the next three years and became a celebrity in London society. But Novick continues to allude to Zhukovski as if the relationship were of paramount importance to James. Only one letter from the Russian, written in 1879, survives. Zhukovski is in Italy and invites James to join him at the Villa Postiglione, his pension, at Posilipo, near Naples. While in Rome, James reserves a room in the pension for five days.
The rest of the story emerges after James abruptly leaves the villa at the end of the third day. He lodges at a hotel in Sorrento and writes several lively letters indicating he fled from Zhukovski and a nest of young homosexuals. They were attached to the composer, Richard Wagner, who lives in a nearby villa. Zhukovski is now a crusading Wagnerian. He wants to introduce James. The novelist refuses. Wagner speaks neither French nor English. James doesn't speak German.
Writing to his sister Alice, James characterized Zhukovski as "the same impracticable and indeed ridiculous mixture of Nihilism and bric-à-brac as before." He adds that Zhukovski always needs to be sheltered by a strong figure: "First he was under Turgenev, then the Princess Urusov, whom he now detests and who despises him, then under H.J. Jr. (!!), then under that of a certain disagreeable Onegin (the original of Turgenev's Nazhdanov, in Virgin Soil) now under Wagner, and apparently in the near future that of Madame Wagner." Novick bypasses these letters; he avoids looking at facts that might spoil his case. He does allude to the James remark about Zhukovski's bric-a-brac, but he seems to misunderstand its irony. He claims that James was "cautious" about this visit because of crime and disease in the Naples area--all this, says Novick, is "out of keeping with the collection of bric-à-brac with which Zhukovski was surrounded." James may indeed have been referring to the villa's human bric-a-brac.
In a letter written from Sorrento to Grace Norton in Cambridge, he described a group of English persons he visited in Frascati after leaving Posilipo. They were of an "admirable, honest, reasonable, wholesome English nature," in sharp contrast to the "fantastic immorality and aesthetics of the circle I had left at Naples."
So Novick is deprived of the happy romance he wanted to chronicle at Posilipo. He consoles himself by a detailed account of Zhukovski's adoption into Bayreuth, his painting the sets for Parsifal and being considered a kind of son by the Wagners. Novick seems to be trying to walk down two streets at once--the street of the refinements of literary biography and the more rigid roadway of the prosecutorial argument. He attempts to turn certain of his fancies into fact--but his data is simply too vague for him to get away with it.

The distribution platform that we're now using is setup to expand through the rest of this year into other states as we continue to change and modify relationships.
Cincinnati, OH (PRWEB) January 12, 2014
The competition in the used engines market in North America is creating new distribution outlets for some buyers to find replacement inventory for sale. The Preowned Engines company is announcing its new shipment programs for used engines in Cincinnati, OH. All residents of Hamilton County can purchase motors and receive same day shipping at http://preownedengines.com/used-engines-cincinnati.
This expansion into the state of Ohio is part of a new initiative in 2014 to increase the amount of distribution cities available. The states of Texas, California and New York are currently represented in the growing list of distribution states that are now in the Preowned Engines company network.
The state of Ohio is one of the automotive centers in the U.S. although distribution for replacement engines can be difficult for some buyers to arrange. Buyers who are used to working with salvage agencies and junkyards are expected to benefit from the new distribution resources provided in the city of Cincinnati, OH.
"The distribution platform that we're now using is setup to expand through the rest of this year into other states as we continue to change and modify relationships," said a source at the PreownedEngines.com company.
One advantage that buyers of engines in Cincinnati are expected to receive is the freight-free policies that are now in place for most delivery destinations. Each engine shipment that is prepared and delivered to cities in the Preowned Engines company network are delivered without freight charges.
"The policy for freight removal is a new strategy established to create better price points for engine buyers who are used to paying high rates for shipments in the U.S.," added the source.
The PreownedEngines.com company is currently able to process shipments for used engines from its website and through a customer service call center. This call center is setup to take all calls related to engine pricing and shipment information.
Buyers who are experienced with generating online price quotations can use the Internet price features now located online at the Preowned Engines company website.
About PreownedEngines.com
The PreownedEngines.com company is a national resource to locate previously owned vehicle engines for discount prices in North America. This company has one of the largest available foreign and domestic inventories available for public sale online. The PreownedEngines.com company staff are available through toll-free telephone numbers and through online contact systems to help all buyers in the U.S. The company inventory is acquired using trusted partnerships in the automotive industry to find quality units that are low in mileage for engine buyers.

|Images courtesy of Skkan Media via Jamaican Mommies Mothers Day Picnic 2014
A few days ago in our Jamaican Mommies Facebook Group (yep it's private so go ahead and request to join) us Jamaican Mommies began discussing some of the things we have triumphed at and others that we wish we had done... differently and so began the Jamaican Mommies "Moms Say.." Series. Each Week we'll ask several Mommies from varied parenting groups a simple question and share their responses.
This week we asked, " How old are your Kids and looking back on your parenting Journey, What is your biggest parenting "I wish I had"?
In the end several things stood out,
generally most moms wished they had leaned more on their instincts, made better nutrition choices, not be so hard on themselves and asked for help when needed. What stood out mostly is that by and large parenting remains a learn-as- you-go experience. There will be parenting manuals and guidelines as we previously established in what Parents really need to Know but having sincerity and really making the very best effort really goes a long way.
Some comments include:
- "My child is 1 year and 6 months....I wish I had followed my own instincts more. As a mother you truly know or think you know what is best for your child but you feel pressured to follow those who are mothers before you. They really can't speak to your child's needs better than you."- T.G
- "I have a teenager and a toddler and I wish I had gone easy on the junk food. Burger King and KFC are not our friends...in the moment it may seem fast & easy for a busy/stressed Mummy but trying to re-condition the child in the later years...is difficult at best." -J.W
- "My children are 2 & 3. What I would have done differently is ask for help more often after having my first, I took on waaaaaaaaaay too much during my post partum recovery"-D.P
- "My Son is 6 he does not listen so I wonder myself where did I go wrong so I guess I have to put my foot down some more" - D.L
- "My babies are 12, 10, 7,5 and 3. I should have shown them how to clean their rooms from 1"- T.E
- "The boys 9 & 6. What would i have done differently? had them 20 years earlier!!"- F.M
- "My kids are 18yrs, 13yrs and 5 months. I wish I had introduced them to Christ earlier especially my 18yr old, and start having kids maybe 10 yrs later and having them closer."- T.M
- "My son is 2 and if I could do anything differently it would be taking a stand against unsolicited advice. It is extremely difficult having a toddler, pursuing an engineering degree, keeping my marriage interesting along with balancing bills and appearance. I wish I had more support sometimes. On the upside I am proud that I made learning seem fun and censored his videos"- H.T
- "My son is 2 1/2 years old I wished I hadn't taken the I can do it all approach so I met all his needs and not have him wait on his dad's timing to do things. I should have been more adamant that he help out especially during the breastfeeding months and bottle feedings and to take on weekend duty full tilt. I wished I hadn't given in to snacking during my 6 month breast feeding exclusively stint buy I needed the energy and I didn't have time to cook especially returning to work. My last point is with the sleeping in our bed and by the looks of it I will have a uphill constant battling in trying to get him to sleep in his own."- R.G
- "My Daughter is 7 and son will be here any day. I think for my daughter I probably would have started her swimming earlier if I had known I could start at 3 months. I also would have attempted cloth diapering. Everything else I think I learned from them"- M.D
- "My Child is 13 months. I wish I had tried harder to breastfeed".- S.A
- "My son is 9. I would probably try breast-feeding a little harder and I would PROBABLY not spoil him as much because now he is ROTTEN" G.P
- "My daughter is 6 and my son is 2. I think I would have tried harder to breastfeed my daughter. I did it with my son and it was wonderful"-D.C.W
- "My son is 5 months next week.....a bit soon to look back and see what I would do differently. Ohhhhh circumcise him in the hospital and not when he was 2 weeks old".-C.B
- "My daughter is about 18 months old and I wish I had let her do more... as an older 1st time mom I've been overly cautious".- N.R.
- "My son turns 4 next month. I wish I knew and recognized the early signs of autism before his diagnosis last year. Feel like I should have known. Wish I trusted my "Mommy Intuition" earlier on. Glad to be past the freak out stage... somewhat..." D.M.
- "My son is 3. I wish I allowed his hair to grow until he wanted it to be cut, instead of waiting for him to ask for hair (like mine, his dad, & my friends). I am happy he requested no more barber & is sticking with it though".-M.B.
- "My kids are 25, 23, 9, 5 and I wish I had more patience with all of them... But my parenting is sooooo much better the second time around"...-M.W.
- "My First one is 3 years old, second is 20 months. I wish I had put my foot down more with visitors after I had my first. I didn't want to offend anyone, but looking back, it was really overwhelming (especially when people try to give unsolicited advice). I also believe all that unnecessary stress affected my milk supply, because the second time around I was more successful - even though it didn't last very long."- K.M
- " My daughter is 7 years old and I wish I didn't stay in a bad relationship 'for the sake of my child' . I could sense it was going downhill from the start, but I really wanted to have my child grow up with both parents. It eventually took some serious soul searching to realize that a bad relationship could never be good for my child. I regret staying on for 7 years though as my child picked up lots of the negatives from that relationship such as shouting and storming out etc"- G.H
- "My son is 11 and in that awkward stage and I wish I had spent more time with him instead of being so involved at work. I feel like I was always so busy with work that he literally grew out of my sight so I just wish I didn't miss out on so much of his life by being so busy with my career" -R.L
- "My daughter is 8 and sometimes when I look back, I wish I had played with her more. I was always so busy with work, rushing home, taking care of dinner, getting ready for bed and work that I felt I never truly had play time with her" - D.P
- "My kids are now teenagers and now I wish I had listened to them more. It is really hard to be maintaining a relationship with them now especially with them always saying I never listen. Sigh" -K.T.
As we will see mums, there are always improvements to be made; always things we wish we had done differently, but the aim is to always learn from the downturns and maintain the upturns. As a guide, if there are deep rooted issues that will affect your relationship with your kids, do address them today. Ask yourself, If I don't change X today, what will my relationship with my child be like in 5 years then 10?! and change something today!!.
If an extremely busy schedule is your cry, try to reserve weekends for quality time with your kids; If they say you never listen, try to do just that and remember we have been granted motherly instincts for a reason so let us use them and end the cycle of regrets.
P.S. My daughter is 6 going on 60 and I wish I had popped out baby number 2, three years ago. At the time, I couldn't fathom being a second time mother as I feared not having enough time for both :-)
What are your biggest Parenting I wish I had moments? Share with us!!!

Solution Preview
From personal experience, I have learned that children can be very resourceful. They are often able to find ways of participating and completing tasks, even when physical barriers are present. The challenge is in accommodating the child with no limbs in a matter that will allow her to benefit from the lesson as much as the other students. This lesson requires some writing, so I must consider the challenge this child will have in participating at the same level as the other students. I do not want her to feel left out or cheated, because she has a physical challenge.

Hello guys,
I have made a game written in objective-c language. I don't use spritebuilder (I prefer writing a code). I'm thinking about releasing the game also in google play. It is possible in cocos2d-x. Now my question, is it necessary to rewrite whole code into cocos2d-x or there is a possibility to upload my recent project into google play?
You can try to cross-compile your code with XCode 6.3 and old Android Plugin from Apportable, like some guys outhere do, but in general: yes, you will have to rewrite your code from scratch.

The Wisconsin Idea at Its Most Audible
A component of the University of Wisconsin–Madison School of Music, the Music Engagement and Outreach Program shares the expertise of its three faculty ensembles‐in‐residence with young musicians and community audiences around the state. Comprising world-renowned performers and educators, the Pro Arte Quartet, Wingra Wind Quintet, and Wisconsin Brass Quintet bring their experience and musical mastery beyond the University walls. Each ensemble travels throughout Wisconsin to high schools, colleges, and concert halls, working with young musicians and performing for local concert series patrons. With generous support from the Reilly Baldwin Wisconsin Idea Grant, the Music Engagement and Outreach Program continues to expand its involvement with Wisconsin communities by providing mentoring, educational leadership, and training opportunities to students of all ages and backgrounds.
During the 2016-2017 school year, The University of Wisconsin-Madison Mead Witter School of Music commenced the pilot season of an ongoing relationship with the Milwaukee High School of the Arts in a year-long residency. Students in the MHSA Band, Orchestra, and Jazz ensembles worked side-by-side with the Pro Arte Quartet, Wingra Wind Quintet, and Wisconsin Brass Quintet both at MHSA and on campus at UW-Madison. In the 2017-2018 academic year, the partnership is expanding to include MHSA's Opera program, and will introduce MHSA band students to the UW World Percussion ensemble.
Lecture Performance
The ensemble will perform pieces or excerpts of pieces from their repertoire, then discuss and analyze the music from the ensemble's unique approach to performance. Questions to and from the audience will be addressed throughout the demonstration.
Master Class
Members from the ensemble will listen to solo or small ensemble performances and offer comments and suggestions. Groups of any instrumentation playing music from any era are welcome! Students and/or public audiences are invited to observe.
Open Rehearsal
Members of the ensemble will lead auditors through a public rehearsal of current repertoire. Repertoire for the class will be chosen by the ensemble. Questions from the audience will be addressed throughout the rehearsal.
Chamber Ensemble Coaching
Private coaching of small chamber ensembles can be most beneficial when preparing for an upcoming performance, such as Solo & Ensemble. The UW Faculty Ensemble will split up so that one individual will coach one ensembles. Coaches will discuss specific techniques, performance practices, and develop musical ideas with the ensemble. All levels welcome!
Collaborative Performance
The ensemble will rehearse with and prepare work(s) to be performed alongside a student ensemble. Side-by-side performances typically take 1-2 rehearsals. Repertoire varies depending on ensemble and ability level of collaborators.
Full Clinic
A full clinic may include a combination of any of the educational workshop offerings. Full/half-day clinic costs vary depending on length of clinic.
The concert was exquisite. To have this level of professionalism, talent and experience in our little theater was magical. It was a truly unforgettable experience. The audience was thrilled.
– Three Lakes Center for the Arts
This was a record-breaker for sales…everything was terrific, extremely well organized…the group was friendly and accommodating…Your Arts Outreach is a flagship program, where you truly "walk the talk" of the Wisconsin Idea. We were honored to have the musicians here.

One of the things that is so great about having these groups…is that they are polished teachers. They understood how to communicate to young people and share their musical expertise in a very relatable way… universal to all players. As far as the work that the Outreach program is doing, I think it is phenomenal.

Explore the scenic Sacred Valley of the Inca, including an overnight at magnificent Machu Picchu!Overnight in the ancient Inca capital of Cuzco (Cusco) and visit incredible archaeological sites for an outstanding cultural experience. The 8-day adventure, with private guide service, offers a great introduction to the colorful Andean peoples, their environment, history and art.
This educational exploration of one of the world's best travel destinations may also be combined with customized travels throughout Peru.
Special itineraries based out of Cusco and the Sacred Valley may also be customized for a variety of interests, such as archaeology, birding, textile tours, spiritual journeys, and even weddings!
This cultural exploration into the Heartland of the Inca Empire includes an overnight (a must to allow adequate exploration time) at Machu Picchu, one of the greatest destinations in the world. The architectural wonders of the Inca combined with the striking backdrop of the Andes mountains offer sights that you will remember for a lifetime. Cuzco and its surrounds are a photographer's dreamland with incredible archaeology sites, terraced valleys, mountain vistas of snow capped peaks, outstanding early colonial architecture and most of all the beauty of the Peruvians themselves. For many, the resident Quechua Indians and their arts and handicrafts are reason enough to visit this extraordinary part of the world.
ANDEAN INCA EXPLORATION - 8 Day TourDay 1:
For those continuing from an Amazon tour, you have the option of staying this night in Iquitos (recommended), or Lima. (B) Those participating in this Andean Inca Exploration only, will arrive in Lima this night. After reception at the airport, you will be transferred to the Hotel Antigua Miraflores.
Day 2:
A morning flight from Lima over the Andes Mountains to the city of Cuzco transports you to a dramatically different environment. Upon seeing the beauty of Cuzco, situated in a scenic valley at 11,000 feet, it is much easier to understand what may have prompted the Inca to call this area the "navel of the world". After a welcome cup of coca tea and orientation lecture, you are encouraged to relax at your hotel and get acclimated to the altitude. After lunch, a walking city tour introduces you to your surroundings in this historical city, including the San Blas Chapel, Arzobispo Palace and the Main Cathedral.
Day 3:
You begin the day visiting spectacular Inca ruins and historic colonial architecture, including a tour of the immense Inca fortress-temple of Sacsayhuaman, strategically built overlooking Cuzco. The scale of the construction, with the use of stones larger than cars, is sure to astound.
Day 4:
Day 5:
A short (5 minute) morning drive takes you to the train station for travel further up the Sacred Valley to Machu Picchu. The rails run along side the Urubamba River, past towering mountains and through lush forests. Upon arrival at the Machu Picchu train station, a 20 minute bus ride takes you 2,000 feet up to the site's entrance. After an introductory walking tour, the remainder of the day is free for self-exploration and discovery of this magnificent site, which was built on a mountaintop and surrounded on three sides by the Urubamba River. By staying overnight in Agua Calientes at the base of the mountain, you can experience the two most spectacular times at Machu Picchu, sunset and sunrise! Night excursions into the site can sometimes be arranged. Overnight is at the Machu Picchu Inn, aka Inkaterra's El Mapi (or similar), conveniently located in colorful Agua Calientes. (B/L)
[If you desire to stay overnight at the hilltop Machu Picchu Sanctuary Lodge, there is an additional surcharge which also includes dinner. You may also upgrade your stay in Agua Calientes to the beautiful riverside Machu Picchu Pueblo Hotel.]
Day 6:
Dawn is an incredibly beautiful sight at mystical Machu Picchu. The play of light and shadow from the sun and clouds paints a photogenic and ever-changing landscape as the day continues. This is a free day for personal exploration and contemplation. Time to wander explore more of the archaeology, visit and shop in Agua Calientes, enjoy the surrounding verdant cloudforest, river and hot springs, climb overlooking Huanya Picchu (requires advance ticket) and/or hike the Inca trail to Intipunku (Gate of the Sun). The unrivalled scenery will provide lasting memories. The late afternoon train takes you to the Poroy train station for a road transfer back to Cuzco (to save time) for overnights at the Casa San Blas. (B/L)
Note that the $12 round trip bus between Aguas Calientes and Machu Picchu and the $65 admission fee to the main ruins are not included for this day to save you money in case you do not want to go back into the central site.
Day 7:
This is a free day in Cuzco for personal exploration and relaxation to allow you the maximum amount of choice on activities. Cuzco is one of the world's top travel destinations and a myriad of options are available. If desired, you can arrange a day of white-water rafting, mountain biking, horseback riding, hiking, or explorations of surrounding remote Inca ruins. The city of Cuzco also offers wonderful art and history museums, countless shops with a great variety of handicrafts, a wide variety of restaurants, pubs & peñas, numerous churches, cathedrals and other outstanding historic architecture line the cobble stone streets.
Day 8:
Free morning in Cuzco. Afternoon transfer to the airport for the flight to Lima and connections for night international flights out. For an additional $75/dbl/pp you may choose to overnight in Lima and fly out the next day, or your continue travels in Peru. (B) (Note that lunch is not included on this day to allow you the most options.)
CHINCHERO OPTION: If you have an extra day, or only want one day at Machu Picchu, we can add a second overnight in Ollantaytambo for another day of great touring. Then instead of taking the train from Machu Picchu back to Cuzco, we can drive you a different route from Ollantaytambo through Chinchero back to Cuzco. This allows you time with weavers in Chinchero, visit to the archaeology site of Moray and to see the Salinas salt works along with more incredible scenery. We can also arrange this option in the same amount of days if you only want one full day at Machu Picchu by deleting the night in Agua Calientes and having a second night in Ollantaytambo. See below for example.
Chinchero Option (B/L)
We then begin our return to Cuzco, taking a different route and touring the traditional Indian village of Chinchero, the Moray Inca ruins, and the ancient and still used, salt works at Salinas along the way.
We next visit the Quechua town of Chinchero which is famous for its colorful weavings and Sunday market.
Our travel through the scenic mountains also allows you to view the impressive salt pools at Maras. The ancient pools form by water emerging from the mountain and the evaporating ponds are still used to extract salt.
We then visit one of the Inca's engineering marvels, the ruins of Moray. The site's agricultural terraces form a sunken amphitheater that creates a variety of mini ecosystems
You then continue the drive through the mountains back to Cuzco and transfer to the Hotel Casa San Blas for the overnight.
You are welcome to call us anytime at 1-239-992-9660, or toll free at 800-446-9660 or email us at travel"at"GoExploring.com for a detailed Trip Brochure.

Scantlin was arrested at an Austin, TX, airport on Tuesday for allegedly starting a fight with a flight attendant while in the air.
The singer reportedly got into a verbal argument when a flight attendant wouldn't sell him alcohol.
Could this mean more legal woes for the troubled singer?
Scantlin was arrested and booked for public intoxication in Austin, but he could also later face federal charges for interfering with the flight crew while in the air, TMZ reported.
In July, the singer plead guilty to felony cocaine possession, but as part of his sentence, the judge agreed to clear his record in 18 months if Scantlin stays out of legal troubles.
There's no word yet on whether or not Scantlin's mid-air meltdown will affect his record.
However, the singer isn't the only celebrity to cause a ruckus in the skies. Take a look at the gallery below to see who else caused major airline drama.

Top ten Best Video Production Practices
In terms of developing a corporate video you want to make sure you get the top services. You might want to upload it in your website and be sure that it will play well on any media device such as a mobile device, tablet, desktop or perhaps on television. You should be sure that it'll work effectively regardless of the speed of connection, resolution or content. There are several factors to bear in mind if you wish to make corporate video production work well to suit your needs: fun fact videos
1. Don't work which has a recommendation for "one size fits all". It is best to make use of the very highest rendition you will be generating.
2. Ensure that the audio stream plays synchronized with the video stream when editing because sometimes you will see that the tape starts and so the audio is available in later. This looks very unprofessional.
3. It is important in video production the sized the frame is really as large as that relating to the largest rendition you expect. This certainly will not a lot more than exactly what the original frame size was though.
4. Should you be having text for the tape, ensure that it's legible, crisp and clear. This could be quite difficult if you are playing both on full screen and so on browsers.
5. When shooting it is crucial that your camera be held steady. If it shakes the encoder may hard time compressing the pad which will mean a lower quality picture and minimize quality compression.
6. Background noise should be avoided whenever possible also. If you find noise from traffic or something else you will see that your dialogue won't be clear. For example noisy visuals like busy wall paper like a background. viral videos
7. When shooting in HD you should first set you guessed it-your camera to 'progressive' for the best results. However, should you have concerning 'interlace' make sure to first de-interlace when undertaking your editing.
8. Lights are critical. Be sure to utilize the appropriate production lighting and the proper amount of it so your quality and the look you want to create is captured and exposed properly. If the scene is dark you'll lose its quality when encoding.
9. The frame rate should be constant when shooting. This will likely ensure no stuttering if the tape is played back. It is vital that you shoot progressive at the same time. 24fps will provide you with a far more filmic look vs. 30fps.
10. Beyond the above, be sure how the audio is either mono or stereo and kept to 48 KHZ or 96 KHZ. Maintain your audio level constant as well and make certain that this sound recording are normalized. Optimal dialogue is recorded between -18db and -6db.

Chronic Heart Failure Trial Enrolling Patients at Moore Regional
| Date Posted: 8/6/2013
PINEHURST – A FirstHealth Moore Regional Hospital clinical trial is investigating whether the electrical treatment provided by a special type of pacemaker can keep a patient in heart failure from getting worse.
The Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy (CRT) pacemaker being studied in this clinical trial has been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for patients with moderate to severe heart failure whose heart pumps blood inefficiently. The study will determine if blood can be pumped to the body more efficiently when the lower heart chambers (i.e. ventricles) are electrically paced to beat together by the CRT pacemaker.
Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) can help restore a normal coordinated heart rhythm by delivering pacing treatment to both sides of the heart.
Participants in the trial will be men and women 18 years and older with a diagnosis of chronic heart failure. Pregnant women are not eligible.
Mark Landers, M.D., a cardiologist with FirstHealth Cardiology Services, is the principal investigator.
To refer a patient for this trial or for more information on patient eligibility, contact the FirstHealth Clinical Trials office at (910) 715-2200.

I got turned onto Brook's work after looking over the long list of collaborations Brian Eno's done over the years, adn I was interested to see the ambient label thrown around, I've never heard of him outside of Eno so I decided to look into it. I was surprised to find a fair few soundtracks under his name, and from that I listened to his album Cobalt Blue which is actually really good. The main highlight is Ultramarine for sure, but the tracks around it are just as good. track it down if you dig.

Rihanna has joked about firing all of her staff members after they created a giant pinata in the R&B star's likeness for America's Boss Appreciation Day.
The Work hitmaker shared images of the giant head, complete with Rihanna's new dreadlocks, on Instagram on Tuesday (18Oct16), as her Fenty Corp. team celebrated the unofficial holiday with the tongue-in-cheek prank.
The candy-stuffed pinata was placed on a chair by a desk.
The singer captioned the shot, "When you don't show up to the office for #BossAppreciationDay #TheCorp #FentyCorp #pinata #FiredThemAll (sic)".
However, her workers made it clear the pinata was all in good fun as they also had silver balloons set up, spelling out the word 'Boss', surrounded by red hearts.
"I (love) my employees!" Rihanna captioned the second snap.
The cheeky pop superstar previously enjoyed a laugh with her team last year (15) by creating a fake Employee Handbook, which featured a string of crazy rules, including one about vacation days and limiting sick days.
"Each employee will receive 104 personal days. They are called Saturday & Sunday," it read, before continuing: "We will no longer accept a doctor's statement as proof of sickness. If you are able to go to the doctor, you are able to come to work."

"Tense" means "time."
It means the time of the action inside your sentence.
In other words, your Verb can be finished or happening now, finished or not yet, etc.
I think it's common. Most of the languages in the world have at least 3 basic time: (1) the Past, (2) the Present and (3) the Future.
The Different Tenses of English
1. Past
2. Present
3. Future
In English, each Tense has 4 kinds. Take a look:
Because you're not a teacher and you just need to learn how to speak English, you don't need to remember these difficult names in grammar.
But you do need to remember the formula for each Tense:
And because of your level (Beginner), you can practice only the most important first:
You have to remember the formulas, so you can make your sentences in English.
See? This is why Tense is very important.
You have only 1 Subject and 1 Verb, the same Subject and the same Verb.
But you can make 6 different kinds of sentences!
Each and every one of the 6 Tenses has a different meaning. So you can't mix them and use them in the same situation.
If you do that, you will most likely make a mistake.
Now you can see why Tense is really important in English and it's one of the most difficult topics.
Anyway, the first step is to practice making sentences and questions. Please remember and use the formulas that I gave you above.
Practice a lot by yourself. Later, I will teach you the meaning of the Tenses -- one by one.
Thanks for reading my lesson.
See you around!

|Legislative Programme and Pre-Budget Statement
Mr. Nick Ainger (West Carmarthen and South Pembrokeshire): They have had it every time.
Mr. Livsey: No; farmers have had compensation one year in two. They have lost out enormously because of the exchange rate. There was no mention of rural services in either the rural White Paper for England or the Queen's Speech.
Labour has been a disaster for the countryside, and for farming in particular. It had an honourable record in the pastTom Williams introduced the epoch-making Agriculture Act 1947but the National Assembly for Wales has a more constructive attitude to farming than the Labour Government in London. The National Assembly is pursuing the agrifood policy and other issues relating to the farming industry. The Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food in Whitehall has not done its stuff for farming. The price for milk is 10p less a litre than it was two years ago, and many of the dairy farmers in my constituency are facing bankruptcy. The Government must treat the issue seriously; there is an exodus of young people from the countryside and they will not return, because there is no living to be made there. That is very serious for the language, the culture and many other aspects of our nation.
I agree with the comments made by the right hon. Member for Llanelli (Mr. Davies), especially about the health authorities. There is no longer a case for health authorities; they are bureaucracy that should be subsumed into one health authority for Wales, under the National Assembly. The money spent on the Dyfed Powys health authority, which costs £6 million to run, could be better spent on patients and on more effective targeting of health needs in Walesand that should be done sooner rather than later.
The economy and jobs in Wales are variable; there is success in some places but the position is patchy in others. There are still far too many low-paid jobs in the economy, but I congratulate the Government and the National Assembly on redoubling their efforts in that respect. The upskilling of young people for the new technological industries is vital for the economy of Wales. Quality jobs will come to Wales only if we have trained and skilled people to do them. We are starting to win that battle but we have a long way to go; European objective 1, 2 and 3 funding will assist us in that task.
I cannot understand why the Government do not accept that there is a Welsh nationality, and why they will not do anything about the census form. It is extraordinary that this is the only nation in the United Kingdom that will not have the same opportunity as the others. If we are not careful, there will be an inadequate census, and we must be responsible about it.
Mr. Allan Rogers (Rhondda): Will the hon. Gentleman please respond to what I said?
Mr. Livsey: There are many hon. Members in the Committee whom I have not mentioned. Pensioners have been referred to, and the Government have started to tackle their problems. The Conservative party would take away pensioners' benefits and put them into a pension, but when everything is added up and the allowances subtracted, they would receive only 42p extra30p less than the Chancellor gave them a year ago. The Chancellor made a decent start in trying to give pensioners a proper pension this year. My view is that the link between earnings and pensions should be restored, and the sooner that that happens the better. The money is there.
We have heard what was, inevitably, a pre-election Queen's Speech.
The introduction of the Children's Commissioner is an excellent measure. A complex mix of tough measures on crime has been announced. However, the abandonment of rural Wales is, frankly, a disgrace to the founding fathers of the Labour party. There should be a major rethink on that, because the problem is much more serious than is realised. Please, please do something about it.
5.45 pm
The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Wales (Mr. David Hanson): We have had the usual wide-ranging and interesting debate. I agree with the hon. Member for Montgomeryshire (Mr. Öpik) that we should be judged not on what we say but on results. The Queen's Speech and the pre-Budget statement include action to create the lowest levels of unemployment that we have known, to support pensioners and to extend the new deal. There is proposed legislation on crime, the Children's Commissioner, tobacco advertising and health. We shall be judged on the positive results that those measures will have for people in Wales.
It is interesting to compare and contrast the reactions of the different parties. Some 11 Labour Members have spoken and, with one or two exceptions, there has been a positive welcome for the pre-Budget speech and the Gracious Speech. We have had two speeches from Conservative Members, including one from the hon. Member for North Dorset that focused solely on the Children's Commissioner. I look forward to discussing that with him in Committee, and I shall deal with it later in my speech. The hon. Member for Ribble Valley spoke about the economy. As my hon. Friends said, the Conservatives must realise that, after 18 years of their rule and given their record in office, it is a bit rich for them to start making suggestions about things that should have been included in the pre-Budget statement and in legislation. My hon. Friend the Member for Vale of Clwyd (Mr. Ruane) spoke about the Conservative record in his usual effective way.
We have had two contributions from Liberal Democrat Members. The hon. Members for Montgomeryshire and for Brecon and Radnorshire (Mr. Livsey) have played ``good cop, bad cop'' today. The hon. Member for Montgomeryshire has been Mr. Consensus, giving positive, warm welcomes to Government initiatives, which has been good. We have had a bit more of the bad cop from the stir crazy, ready-to-go hon. Member for Brecon and Radnorshire, and I shall return to some of his points. Between them, they have given us an uncosted wish list of proposals.
Then there are the nationalistsI will not call them the party of Wales, because evidently they are not, given the number of hon. Members on the Government Benches. I reluctantly have a soft spot for the hon. Member for Ceredigion. He has been a Member for only nine months, but he has made a good impression and is doing well. He said today that he wants more money for various things and that he wants more power for the Assembly, and he gave a grudging welcome to some of the Bills contained in the Queen's Speech. My right hon. Friend the Member for Llanelli asked how, if and when the things that the hon. Gentleman wants will happen when the economy of Wales is split off from that of the rest of the United Kingdom. If he cannot answer those points in detail, he has a lot to learn about the House and the standard of contributions required. Those questions must be answered and, if they are not answered today, they will be answered at the general election because the points made by my right hon. Friend are essential to the economic case that damns nationalism in Wales and will prevent it from ever succeeding in the way in which the hon. Gentleman would wish it to succeed.
The pre-Budget statement has brought economic benefits. My hon. Friends the Members for Monmouth (Mr. Edwards), for Bridgend and for Vale of Clwyd have pointed to the high levels of employment in Wales, the strong Welsh economy, and the investment in Wales brought by this year's spending review. Everyone knows that unemployment is now lower in every Welsh constituency. We can compare and contrast the approach taken by my hon. Friend the Member for Vale of Clwyd, who talked Wales up, with that of certain Opposition Members, who pointed to the failures of the Welsh economy. There is a strong case for us to point to the general positives, and to say that we have a strong economy and high employment.
My hon. Friend the Member for Vale of Glamorgan (Mr. Smith) mentioned his genuine concerns about possible impact on DARA. I know that my right hon. Friend the Secretary of State has met the relevant Minister in the Ministry of Defence, and will report shortly. He is willing to meet my hon. Friend again to discuss the situation, which I am grateful has been brought to the attention of the Committee.
The pre-Budget review draws on this year's spending review. Before it, thanks to my right hon. Friend the Chancellor's previous commitments, we were already to have major investment in public services via the National Assembly and central Government during the next three years.
I want to draw hon. Members' attention to pensions. I am sorry that my hon. Friend the Member for Newport, West has had to leave, as he seemed warm towards the Government's pension proposals, which show that the Government are making positive moves for pensioners. The Conservatives would abolish next year's increases of £5 and £8, the minimum income guarantee, the pensioner credit and the winter fuel allowance, all of which my hon. Friends spoke strongly for.
I contrast again the difference between my hon. Friend the Member for Newport, West, who said that the minimum income guarantee was a positive measuremy hon. Friend the Member for Vale of Clwyd also pointed to the future increasesand the whinge of the hon. Member for Ceredigion. All that he could do was ask why sufficient pensioners had not taken up the minimum income, when what we need is a strong campaign to encourage pensioners to take it up.
My hon. Friend the Member for Rhondda mentioned the extension of the new deal. All hon. Members now have people off benefit, into work and contributing to society thanks to that extension. The extension to over-25s, lone parents and disabled people and the communities and neighbourhood funds announced in the pre-Budget review are positive steps, as is the extra school cash of £9.9 million for Welsh schools following my right hon. Friend the Chancellor's announcement.
I shall deal with a point made by the right hon. Member for Caernarfon. Edwina Hart, the Assembly Member for Gower, who has responsibility for finance in the Assembly, responded to criticisms that housing and education budgets would be raided for match funding. Her Budget speech states:
My final point on the pre-Budget review was raised by the hon. Member for Montgomeryshire and my hon. Friend the Member for Monmouth. In September, there was concern about fuel duties. I represent a rural area, and farmers from my constituency went to Stanlow oil refinery. I had met them before and knew that they were concerned. Such concerns were the reason for my right hon. Friend the Chancellor's announcement in the pre-Budget review of a freezing of fuel duty until 2002 and a reduction of 3p on low sulphur fuel, which will be introduced soon in Wales. He took £300 million off vehicle excise duty across the UK, and he undertook support for the industry. The Government listened, and took action.
