This is my certificate. It says that I flew over the Nazca lines. My kids and I got one, but my wife and her sister didn’t. That’s because they didn’t get on the plane. Since they’re both Peruvians, you might think they stayed on the ground because they’ve already flown over the other major tourist attraction in Peru besides Machu Pichu. No, they haven’t. In fact, I don’t think anyone in her family has flown over the Nazca lines. That’s because Peruvians don’t have a lot of faith in the tiny airplanes that fly over the Nazca lines. They have a reputation for being old, poorly maintained, overcrowded and with a tendency to drop out of the sky unexpectedly.
On February 25th one did just that. A Nazca Air plane took out 3 Chilean tourists, 3 Peruvian tourists and the pilot.
That was not the airline’s first problem. That same plane had to make an emergency landing on the Panamerican highway in November of 2008. In April of that same year another Nazca Air plane crashed killing five French tourists. Back when the airlines killed the five French tourists, it was called Aero Ica. The government took the decisive step of shutting them down. The airline seems to have paid off a few people and opened up again as Nazca Air. I think they just painted new lettering on the planes one night, and everybody just went back to work the next day. Both companies even had the same owner/spokesman trying to deflect blame. In 2008, the owner tried to blame the crash on one of the passengers saying that a female passenger had pulled on the pilot’s seatbelt. That story didn’t appear in the official report on the crash and no one but the owner’s mother believes it. This time the owner tried to blame the crash on the pilot, claiming he had a heart attack. The pilot’s doctor spoke out saying the pilot didn’t have a history of heart problems.
This is the statement from the owner about the February 26th crash.
“No tengo por qué lamentar la muerte de los turistas chilenos. No fue falla de ninguna de mis aeronaves. Ha sido una falla netamente humana y por eso no lo siento ni tengo que lamentar esta muerte”.

"I have no reason to regret the death of the Chilean tourists. It was not a fault in one of my planes. It was purely a human error and so I don't feel I have to regret that (sic) death."
Franklin Horler, owner Nasca Airlines (previously Aero Ica).

Sweet huh?
The problems haven’t been limited to Nazca Air/Aero Ica. The small planes from various local airlines frequently made emergency landings on the Panamerican highway. Fortunately traffic is light on that part of the Panamerican highway (it’s only two lanes and you won’t see another car for hours). There is a joke that you can’t catch a taxi on that part of the highway, but if you wait long enough a small plane will eventually come by.
The federal government seems to have actually cracked down. Immediately after the February crash, they closed down the Nazca airport and sent inspectors to decide which planes were safe enough to fly. Out of 48 planes, they cleared 7 for flight. They may have cleared more planes by now. I don’t know. We’ll see how many more crashes and emergency landings there are.

Corrugated box construction certificate.
On February 23, 1993, MGM celebrated a "topping off" ceremony with the placement of the last panel of emerald green glass hoisted onto one of the 30-story hotel towers. A total of 5,005 green balloons were released, each containing a gift certificate valid for one complimentary stay in one of the rooms.
When the latest MGM Grand opened on December 18, 1993, it was owned by MGM Grand Inc. At that time it had an extensive Wizard of Oz theme, including the green "Emerald City" color of the building and the decorative use of Wizard of Oz memorabilia. After entering the casino's main entrance, one would find themselves in the Oz Casino and facing the "Emerald City". Dorothy, the Scarecrow, the Tin Man and the Cowardly Lion were seen in front of the city. The "Emerald City" attraction featured an elaborate yellow brick road walk through. Complete with a cornfield, an apple orchard, the haunted forest as well as audio-animatronic figures of the Scarecrow, Dorothy, the Wicked Witch of the West, the Tin Man and the Cowardly Lion. It would end at the door of the city, leading inside for a performance of "The Wizard's Secrets". When the MGM Grand began its extensive refurbishment in 1996, the Oz Casino was the first to go. The Emerald City was completely demolished, and the "Emerald City Gift Shop" was moved to a new shopping section of the casino. The store remained open until early 2003.
Originally, the main entrance on the Strip was inside the mouth of a giant cartoon-like version of MGM's mascot, Leo the Lion, but this entrance feature was changed to a more traditional entrance; many Chinese gamblers avoided the casino or entered through the back entrance, due to the feng shui belief that entering the mouth of the lion was "bad luck."[7] In 1998, a large bronze statue of Leo was added above the entrance to keep with the MGM Lion theme, while not scaring away their more superstitious guests. The statue weighs 50 tons, and at 45 feet (14 m) tall, on a 25-foot pedestal, is the largest bronze statue in the U.S.[8]

When the MGM Grand opened, the intention was to create the first true destination hotel in the Las Vegas area by including the MGM Grand Adventures Theme Park behind the casino. The plan was to make the Las Vegas Strip more family friendly by providing activities for children who were too young to be allowed to linger inside the casino. The theme park performed poorly, and did not reopen for the 2001 season. On December 5, 2002, MGM Mirage announced that the former theme park would be developed as a luxury condominium and hotel complex called The Signature.

A monorail was built to connect the MGM Grand to Bally's in 1995. The coming out party for the monorail on behalf of Bally's consisted of showgirls and guys from Jubilee helping the groups to the monorail. Characters from the Wizard of Oz greeted the groups on the MGM side. The track was later updated to became the southernmost section of the Las Vegas Monorail. The station was refurbished, the trains were replaced with Bombardier M-VI's, and the track was extended beyond the southern station to provide for track switching for the trains as well as a starting point for a potential future southern extension to the monorail line.
MGM Grand today, with sign promoting it as The City of Entertainment
In 2000, in an attempt to appeal to a more "mature" clientele, the hotel underwent a major renovation and almost all traces of the "Oz" theme were removed. The theme is now more of the Art Deco era of classic Hollywood and the hotel started billing itself as The City of Entertainment. More recently, the resort has used the phrase, "Maximum Vegas" referring to the vast amount of activities MGM Grand offers its guest.
On April 26, 2000, MGM opened a new satellite registration/hotel check-in center at the McCarran International Airport. This is the first of its kind opened by a hotel company at any United States airport.[9]
In 2005, MGM opened the "West Wing," a renovation of the original Marina Hotel rooms.
Beginning in October 2011, MGM began its "Grand Renovation" in which all of its rooms and suites in the main tower were fully renovated, along with the casino floor and other public areas. This has provided the hotel with a more modern appeal with its contemporary room design. The work is scheduled to be completed in September 2012.

Graceland is a large white-columned mansion and 13.8-acre (5.6 ha) estate in Memphis, Tennessee that was home to Elvis Presley. It is located at 3764 Elvis Presley Boulevard in the vast Whitehaven community about 9 miles (14.5 km) from Downtown and less than four miles (6 km) north of the Mississippi border.[5] It currently serves as a museum. It was opened to the public on June 7, 1982. The site was listed in the National Register of Historic Places on November 7, 1991 and declared a National Historic Landmark on March 27, 2006. Graceland has become one of the most-visited private homes in America with over 600,000 visitors a year, behind the White House[6] and Biltmore Estate (900,000 visitors per year).[citation needed] The most famous icon of the estate is the front gate, shaped like a book of sheet music, with green colored musical notes, and a silhouette of Elvis, it has come to symbolize the estate more than the mansion itself.
Elvis Presley died at the estate on August 16, 1977. Presley, his parents Gladys and Vernon Presley, and his grandmother, are buried there in what is called the Meditation Garden. A memorial gravestone for Presley's stillborn twin brother, Jesse Garon, is also at the site.
I got a certificate through the post today. One of the tests I had to do to get it was called "Living Online", so I'm now fully qualified at living online. Go me! :P
