    Well known current affairs investigator David Chase nick-named 'the axe' from popular segment  
    'Cut to the Chase' has been on the tail of a murderer who was released from jail after killing a  
    man but who claims he was a wolf man at the time. A good old fashioned right-wing 'moral  
    outrage sensationalist' field-operative, Chase doesn't like what he sees happening to the news  
    world around him - especially at his long-standing conservative TV Network, CNT (we missed 'u') , which, under the spinning eye of Veronica Fox, is reverting to myth making, 'false facts' and disinformation.  
    Chase feels his expiration date is closing in as he tries to keep traditional gutsy tabloid antics  
    front and center. He gets his chance to bribe Ted Victor the self-alleged 'wolf man of Wirrawee'  
    in for a live interview... and to show real guts - on the crest of a full moon. Veronica Fox can't  
    help but get her magic wand spinning and tries molding it all for the alt-right, while Chase  
    desperately clings onto his authority as a 'common sense' conservative reporter. The world  
    comes to a standstill as Ted and Chase go face-to-face in an event billed as the next tabloid  
    'Frost versus Nixon' - left activists surround the building and the recipe is set for an outlandish  
    denouement...

    History of Machu Picchu - The...

    Machu Picchu, one of the most iconic symbols of Inca civilization, is a 15th-century fortress perched high on a mountain crest in southern Peru's Eastern Cordillera. Sitting at an altitude of 2,430 meters (7,970 feet), it is located 80 kilometers (50 miles) northwest of Cusco, within the Machupicchu District of Urubamba Province. The fortress overlooks the Sacred Valley, and the Urubamba River winds through the valley below, cutting through the Cordillera and forming a tropical mountain canyon. This stunning geographical setting has made Machu Picchu one of the most visited and revered archaeological sites in the world. 
    Unlike the Mayans, the Incas had no written language, and thus, no records of the site existed during its operation. The first Europeans to visit Machu Picchu did so only in the 19th century, and as a result, much of its history remained shrouded in mystery. Modern archaeologists, relying on tangible evidence such as graves and structural remains, have attributed names and proposed functions for the buildings, but much of the site’s exact purpose remains speculative. 
    Most contemporary archaeologists believe that Machu Picchu was built as a royal estate for the Inca emperor Pachacuti, who ruled from 1438 to 1472. Constructed in 1450, the site functioned as a private residence for the emperor and his court. Over time, Machu Picchu became the most well-known image of Inca civilization and is often referred to as the "Lost City of the Incas." However, the estate was abandoned in the early 16th century, following the Spanish conquest of the Inca Empire. Recent radiocarbon dating indicates that the site was occupied from around 1420 to 1532.
