This paper will discuss the tools, techniques, technology, psychology, and serendipity that made Pirates a hit.

Enjoy the Ride: The Dream "Theme" Park
By Dr. Maged El-Bialy
More and more kids are coming to Egypt with their parents. Certainly they are always interested in the Pyramids, but their focus on antiquities may not be as high as many adult visitors. They have a tendency to enjoy boat rides, and particularly ridding camels, swimming in the nice pools found in almost all hotels, and now there is even more for them to do in Egypt. While no Disney Lands yet, Egypt has a number of theme parks. First, let me elaborate on the subject. Dream Park, is an amusement or theme park located near Sixth of October City. Bill Kelly manages Dream Park. He brings his American theme park experience onto Egyptian soil. As General Manager of the Dream Park for the past two years, Mr. Kelly brings into the business his industry high-standards as well as effective quality control efforts. As a former graduate of the Walt Disney School of Management, he has successfully managed and many well-known theme parks throughout America. Mr. Kelly was first associated with Dream Park as a management consultant. After about a month it became clear that his experience and knowledge would be vital to the future of Dream Park, so he was offered a full time position as General Manager of the complex. In the last two years, Dream Park has undergone many wonderful changes under his direction and management. Some of these changes include worldwide industry standards in ride safety, as well as staff certification requirements to operate the rides. As General Manager, Mr. Kelly has to pay attention to the smallest details of the park including the park landscaping and staff uniforms. He also provides his experienced opinion into future themes at the park. For example, there were plans proposed to him that a walk-through Pharaonic temple recreation be built in the park. He felt that although the idea was good, a re-creation of a temple complex wouldn't draw much attention considering that Egypt is home to all the real ancient temples. Why visit a fake scaled down version when you can see the real thing elsewhere in Egypt. He suggests perhaps that a new adventure ride based on the new movie The Mummy Returns would be of more interest to park visitors.
