Preview of Terminal 3 at McCarran International Airport
Here's a preview of the new Terminal 3 at McCarran International Airport in Las Vegas, Nevada. The terminal is the latest and most comprehensive expansion in the airport's 64-year history. It occupies 1.9 million square feet across three levels. Its spacious eight-mile roadway system was designed to efficiently move motor vehicles in and out, while an eight-story, 6,000-space garage will fulfill parking needs for decades. Terminal 3's 14 aircraft gates include seven equipped to handle direct international arrivals, a market that has enjoyed double-digit growth in recent years. The terminal also can support the check-in, security screening and baggage claim needs of up to 26 gates at McCarran's D Concourse, located just a 45-second tram ride away. The ability to split D gates' traffic between two terminals will greatly relieve peak congestion. To increase efficiency and reduce waiting times, travels at Terminal 3 also will enjoy some of the airline industry's latest technologies, including self-boarding equipment. The airport is governed by the seven-member Clark County Board of Commissioners.

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
McCarran International Airport (IATA: LAS, ICAO: KLAS, FAA LID: LAS) is the primary commercial airport serving the Las Vegas Valley, a major metropolitan area in the U.S. state of Nevada. It is in Paradise, about 5 miles (8.0 km) south of Downtown Las Vegas. The airport is owned by Clark County and operated by the Clark County Department of Aviation. It is named after the late U.S. Senator Pat McCarran, a member of the Democratic Party who contributed to the development of aviation both in Las Vegas and on a national scale. LAS covers 2,800 acres (11.3 km2) of land.The airport was built in 1942 and opened to commercial flights in 1948. It has undergone significant expansion since then and has employed various innovative technologies, such as common-use facilities. The airport consists of four runways and two passenger terminals: Terminal 1 and Terminal 3. Terminal 1 is composed of four concourses, namely the A, B, C, and D Gates; Terminal 3 contains the E Gates. A people mover system is in place between the post-security area of Terminal 1 and the C and D Gates, as well as between the D Gates and Terminal 3. East of the passenger terminals is the Marnell Air Cargo Center, and on the west side of the airports are facilities for fixed-base operators and helicopter companies.
McCarran received over 45,300,000 passengers in 2015, a 5.8% increase over the previous year but still below pre-recession levels. It is the 27th busiest airport in the world by passenger traffic and the 8th busiest by aircraft movements. The airport has nonstop air service to destinations in North America, Europe, and Asia. It is an operating base for Allegiant Air, as well as a crew and maintenance base for Frontier Airlines, Southwest Airlines, and Spirit Airlines.
USN McDonnell Douglas F/A-18C (164633) departing Las Vegas!
Here is a rare visit of the NAWDC's F/A-18C hornet departing Las Vegas. I have no idea where it came from, but Im glad this bird stopped in for a rest stop! NAWDC stands for Naval Aviation Warfighting Development Center and is based in Fallon, Nevada. It is the training of Naval Aviation and tactics development. These are quite the sight to see as they rarely drop in to Vegas much! As always, hope you enjoy the video!

Clark County Museum Lobby Exhibits
Here are some exhibits now appearing at the Clark County Museum. For instance, see the chair that powerful Nevada Sen. Patrick McCarran used while serving in the Senate. There's also an exhibit about what Clark County would be like if it still remained as a part of the state of Arizona. The exhibit coincides with the 150 anniversary of the state of Nevada. Also: one can view pieces of the wreckage from the plane that actress Carole Lombard was in when it crashed into Mt. Potosi to the west of Las Vegas. For more information about the museum, visit ClarkCountyNV.gov.

The Las Vegas Rotary Club Meeting for September 21, 2017
President Michael Gordon called the meeting to order
Francesca Gilbert gave the invocation. Glenn Meier led the club in singing “Amazing Grace”, followed by the Pledge of Allegiance. The Sergeant At Arms was PP Steve Linder.
There were (4) International Rotarians, (1) visiting Rotarian and (7) Guests of Rotarians introduced. Additionally, Janelle Lozano introduced a future new Rotarian, announcing she is expecting a baby in March, not to be outdone by similar news from President Michael Gordon that he and Amanda Gordon are also expecting a child in March!
The drawing began at $1,147 plus this week’s donations. The ticket winner was Jimmelle Siarot who won $10 and the Lawry’s Bucks winner was David Lester.
PP Caty Crockett confirmed a great turnout for the tour of the Aviation Museum at McCarran Airport and the tour of the USO facility led by PP Dave Thorson.
PP Brock Fraser provided the Club with an update on the status of Ty Hilbrecht asking Club members to reach out to his wife, Mercedes.
Kirk Holmes advised the first week of live streaming our club meetings reached international proportions, having been seen by persons in Kosovo and Australia!
Principal Katie Decker introduced three superstars from her three schools and boasted about the good work they are doing despite budget cuts in education.
Jackie Thornhill led the presentation of Paul Harris pins, including Randy Donald presenting Paul Harris pins to his two sons Nate and Justin. Other awardees included Walt Ruffles +1, Ted McAdam +2, Steve Dixon +4 and Janet Linder +8.
Janet Linder inducted new member Tyler Wistensen. Welcome, Tyler!
Kirk Holmes reminded members about the Halloween party set for October 27, 2017, and the canned food drive
Marie Walsh announced the success of the September Breakfast With Books and our #1 status with the largest number of attendees (376, including 235 children and 141 adults)
Jaime Goldsmith recapped the success of the SOAR program with 120 attendees, including Mayor Carolyn Goodman.
Dave Lester reminded the club about the United Way Day of Caring on Friday, September 29, 2017, at Bridger Middle School.
Caty Crockett introduced our speaker, Mark Hall-Patton, Museum Administrator for the Clark County museum system (running three museums in the general Southern Nevada area). Mark, wearing his wide-brimmed hat, explained how the Aviation Museum at McCarran Airport, is unique insofar as it is not in a separate building with conventional days and hours of operation, but rather throughout the airport in a place where people are, open for viewing 24/7. He shared how PP Caty Crockett’s father was instrumental in the search for land and construction of the airport. While always considering himself a ‘museum administrator’ Mark has found his ‘celebrity’ by his involvement in the TV show “Pawn Stars”, as the ‘man who won’t give a price’.
President Michael Gordon presented our speaker with a “Share What You Can” award to benefit a veteran in need and then adjourned the meeting.
