As the international break looms large, the Belgian Pro League rounds up the first part of the season. Ben, Joris and Scott dive into an entertaining weekend, in which Gent set their title ambitions and Kortrijk continued to struggle. They also dive into the Challenger Pro League, where one side has already hit the panic button while Lommel continue to impress.

Standing up for someone who was being hurt was an empowering experience, even when Johnson Yeung Ching Yin was himself a child. As a university student he became one of the leaders of Hong King's pro democracy Umbrella Movement in 2014. In Episode 1 of the Ahimsa Conversations Podcast, he talks about the challenges of practicing a pure non-violence and highlights the importance of not seeing non-violence in absolute terms. He also talks about his friends in Ukraine and Russia who are opposing the war, many putting their life on the front line, in an effort to reduce the combatants' will to fight.

For the first episode is the second season I revisit one of cinema's greatest rip off movies, A fine 'tribute' to King Kong and Tarzan, this film is a real treat. One I watched far too young to fully appreciate but I enjoyed it for the action, I still enjoy it now but for different reasons. What did new viewers think of it though? I also discuss my favourite Star Trek Movies and mention a few new cinema releases that I think could become cult classics.

*)UN launches investigation into possible Israel, Hamas war crimes The United Nations Human Rights Council has agreed to launch an international investigation into alleged crimes committed during Israel's 11-day assault on Gaza. The independent investigation will have a broad mandate to look into alleged violations by all parties, including Hamas, in Gaza, occupied West Bank and Israel. While Hamas welcomed the investigation, Israel rejected the resolution adopted by the Geneva forum and said it would not cooperate. *) Macron asks Rwanda to forgive France but denies complicity in genocide French President Emmanuel Macron has admitted to France's role in the 1994 genocide in Rwanda without formally apologising. In a speech at Kigali Genocide Memorial in Rwanda, Macron said, "I have come to recognise our responsibilities." Macron went on to say that France "was not complicit" in the genocide in which 800,000 Tutsis and moderate Hutus were killed. *)UN aviation body to probe Belarus plane grounding The United Nations' International Civil Aviation Organization will investigate the forced grounding of a Ryanair passenger plane in Belarus. The aviation authority will produce an interim report by June 25 but regardless of the outcome, there is little scope to punish member states other than by suspending voting rights. The UN probe will be a fact-finding investigation designed mainly to determine whether Belarus breached international aviation rules. *) Hong King's Jimmy Lai, 7 others handed new jail terms over protest Jailed Hong Kong media tycoon Jimmy Lai is among eight activists who were handed new prison sentences over anti-China rallies. The latest sentences were given over attending protests on the 70th anniversary of the founding of modern China. Lai, who is 73, was given a 14-month sentence after pleading guilty to organising and participating in an unlawful assembly. He must now serve 20 months in several combined sentences. And finally ... *) Stephen Hawking's office and archive to get From seminal papers on theoretical physics and scripts for "The Simpsons", the work of British scientist Stephen Hawking is going to be preserved. Hawking, who gained international acclaim for his work on black holes, died in 2018 aged 76 after spending a lifetime probing the origins of the universe. His vast archive of scientific and personal papers will go to the University Library in Cambridge, while the entire contents of his office, including his wheelchair, will be passed to the Science Museum Group.

News: The State of California Health and Human Services hosted an update on COVID-19 in California stream on Tuesday afternoon to talk about theme park reopening guidelines. This was not good news. In a nutshell, small theme parks, which is categorized as being under 15,000 guest capacity can reopen at tier-3, or orange level at 25% capacity or 500 guests, whichever is lower, with only outdoor attractions, and ticket sales limited to the same county the park is located in. – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j8QJF0uEDO8 For larger theme parks, they can reopen at tier-4, or yellow level with 25% capacity. Both levels of theme parks must utilize a reservation system for obtaining tickets and must screen guests for symptoms in advance. Face coverings are mandatory throughout the parks, unless eating or drinking. – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j8QJF0uEDO8 Disneyland’s President Ken Potrock went to Twitter to post his reaction to the guidelines, in part “Together with our labor unions we want to get people back to work, but these State guidelines will keep us shuttered for the foreseeable future, forcing thousands more people out of work, leading to the inevitable closure of small family-owned businesses, and irreparably devastating the Anaheim/Southern California community.” – https://twitter.com/DisneyParksNews/status/1318644525565321217?s=20 The Mayor of Anaheim, Harry Sidhu, seems to agree with Disney, saying in part on Twitter: “These guidelines fail working families and small business. As painful as this is, Disney and the city of Anaheim will survive. But too many Anaheim hotels, stores, and restaurants will not survive another year of this.” continuing “The unions of the Disneyland Resort agree and support the reopening of the theme parks in tier 3, not tier 4, which would wipe out jobs in our city and destroy lives.” – https://twitter.com/City_of_Anaheim/status/1318634185989369856?s=20 Disneyland Unions had drafted a letter to the Governor of California, Gavin Newsom, asking to be included in the discussions regarding the reopening of Disneyland. Previously, the unions asked to delay the opening for the union members safety, but Disney has made the requested changes, so they now support the reopening. – https://www.micechat.com/273190-breaking-disneyland-unions-call-on-california-to-reopen-disneyland/ Disneyland has come to agreement with most of the unions that represent their Cast Members on layoffs and recall procedures. Union Cast Members will be called back to work based on seniority. Most full-time members will not be let go, but part-time members should be concerned. Layoffs are expected to happen beginning next month. – https://www.micechat.com/273009-disneyland-update-you-arent-going-to-like-this/ We were a little concerned about a protest that was promoted online last week. It was billed as a protest to get the parks open for the good of the Cast Members, but it was also rumored to be organized by a conservative group from out of state that would turn it into more of an attack on Governor Gavin Newsom. Protesters did show up from both groups, with the cast member supporters wearing masks and being safe with COVID protections. The other group had a tent setup and were not distancing or wearing masks. Quite a difference between the groups. – https://www.micechat.com/273009-disneyland-update-you-arent-going-to-like-this/ More work is happening around the entrance to Tomorrowland that was originally scheduled to be complete by last Summer. The last of the “french fry” rocks have been removed. No word yet on when they plan to start the construction of the entrance planters. – https://www.micechat.com/273009-disneyland-update-you-arent-going-to-like-this/ Two focal points in the parks are getting a refurbishment. The Partners and Storytellers statues in each park are being cleaned up and are having the oxidation removed. Apparently, they look like a shiny new penny. – https://www.micechat.com/273009-disneyland-update-you-arent-going-to-like-this/ The votes are in and the new legacy lightsaber that will be available for purchase will be Cal Kestis’ from the video game Jedi: Fallen Order. A couple of other designs that are showing up are Ashoka Tano’s pair of sabers that feature hilts that change colors, and Count Dooku’s curved hilt. Disney has announced that two other legacy lightsabers will be retired to make room for the new designs. – https://disneyparks.disney.go.com/blog/2020/10/voting-results-are-in-for-the-legacy-lightsaber-challenge-plus-a-look-at-upcoming-legacy-lightsabers/ What organization is celebrating their 40th anniversary, and just surpassed half a million wishes granted? The Make-a-Wish Foundation! Disney and Make-a-Wish have been partners for a while now and have made more than 140,000 wishes come true. The 500,000 wish milestone went to 16 year old Karina, whose wish was to give kids a day to forget they’re sick. – https://disneyparks.disney.go.com/blog/2020/10/disney-helps-make-a-wish-grant-500000th-wish-during-their-40th-anniversary/ If you are a super fan of the Haunted Mansion like we are, then some of these unique crafts to make at home are for you! The Disney Parks Blog has posted some crafts including “Grim Grinning Garland” with “Tomb Sweet Tomb” headstones, a how-to create your own Madame Leota crystal ball, and how to become a ghost bride or happy haunt.

With just a few ingredients, you can bring the ballroom to your dining room! – https://www.micechat.com/272952-happy-haunts-at-home-how-to-make-haunted-mansion-goodies/ Another Disney Paper Parks Happy Haunts release has been posted this week. This time, it is a little less Disneyland centered, as it features the Haunted Mansion version from the Magic Kingdom and Tokyo Disneyland. The stately mansion, grounds, and front gates are featured this time, along with some familiar friends. That’s right! The hitchhiking ghosts are present, practicing their terror, with ghoulish delight. – https://disneyparks.disney.go.com/blog/2020/10/disney-parks-blog-presents-disney-paper-parks-happy-haunts-edition-designed-by-walt-disney-imagineering-part-3/ For the Weeklyteers who are not close to a Disney Park, shopping district, or Disney Store, there is some good news if you are looking for a Disney mask! Retailers all across the country are now carrying them. Amazon, GAP, Hot Topic, Box Lunch, Walmart and Kohl’s all have numerous designs online and in-store. – https://disneyparks.disney.go.com/blog/2020/10/new-disney-face-masks-now-available-online-in-store/ The next Minnie the Main Attraction collection, this time featuring the Jungle Cruise, was previewed this week.

The Jungle Cruise collection will be available via Merch Pass in November. – https://dlnewstoday.com/2020/10/photo-first-look-at-new-jungle-cruise-collection-for-minnie-mouse-the-main-attraction-series/ Discussion Topic: Return to Space Mountain – The Disneyland Encyclopedia – https://www.amazon.com/dp/1595800905/ref=cm_sw_em_r_mt_dp_OveKFbX30ATG2 Disney Fandom – https://disney.fandom.com/wiki/Space_Mountain_(Disneyland) Undercover Tourist – https://www.undercovertourist.com/blog/secret-history-space-mountain/ Connection with the Matterhorn- Because of the success of the Matterhorn Walt decided that thrill rides did have a place in Disneyland. His original thought was to have the roller coaster be the centerpiece of a renovated Tomorrowland. The roller coaster was first called “Space Port” One of the first drawings of the new space themed attraction was done by John Hench around 1964. It resembled the exterior of our current Space Mountain but it also included tracks spiraling down the outside of the structure. With the death of Walt and the Walt Disney World project eating up funds, the high priced project was shelved. Imagineers revisited the idea years later when it was noticed that the Magic Kingdom lacked thrill rides, which were very popular with teenagers and young adults. Space Mountain first debuted in Orlando in 1975. It was a hit! Construction on Disneyland’s version began that same year on the land that was once used by the Flying Saucers. The Disneyland exterior was about 60 feet shorter than the one in Walt Disney World and the diameter of the building was about 100 feet smaller. This was because the Disneyland mountain would have one interior track instead of the 2 tracks in WDW. At the time, it was Disneyland’s second tallest structure! Costing about $20 million, it became the park’s most expensive attraction at the time and the first attraction to surpass the total cost to build Disneyland. The mountain cone was painted white, reached 118 feet in the air and housed 1.8 million cubic feet. Its footprint covered almost an acre of Tomorrowland. It is estimated that it took over a million man hours to design and construct the CA version. Space Mountain opened in May of 1977 to some of the longest lines in Disneyland’s history. The attraction sky rocketed the park to a new attendance milestone. Previously 1970 had been the only time annual attendance reached the 10 million mark, but in 1977 the new record was set to just under 11 million! But what made it so popular? The thought of a roller coaster in space is a pretty simple concept but Disney did an amazing job with the execution. The attraction tops out at 32mph but darkness of the attraction makes you feel as though you are going much faster. The imagineers used banked curves and dips to add thrill since they are unseen and not something the guest would anticipate. Air blasts and the sounds of the rocket vehicles add to the experience as well. The attraction has had some interesting changes over the years. Most notable was in 1997 when the music was updated to a more fast paced track, 1998 the exterior was painted in bronze and greens. In 2003 the attraction was closed for 2 years so work could be done to replace the track, update the rockets look, update the queue with a new silver spaceship, and restore the original white exterior. The original entrance ramp was removed and replaced with a walk way, and souvenir photos are now taken at the end of your journey. There have been several overlays throughout the years as well. In 2007 Rockin Space Mountain ran from January to April. The soundtrack was changed to “Higher Ground” by The Red Hot Chili Peppers. LED concert lighting was added along the tracks of the ride making the track and interior of the mountain visible. Space Mountain: Ghost Galaxy debuted in 2009 for Halloweentime. Ghost Galaxy had been running in Hong King since 2007. This version uses projections of a ghost chasing riders through the mountain. Hyper Space Mountain: originally debuted on 11/14/2015 during the “Season of the Force” an event celebrating the release of Star War The Force Awakens. This overlay features a soundtrack with music from John William’s score of the Star Wars films. Projections depict a mission towards the planet Jakku. The overlay has been removed and brought back several times over the years.

On Wednesday's Mark Levin Show, there was an active shooter in Philadelphia and five Police Officers have been shot with another hurt in an auto accident. In a time such as this with shootings, and our government encroaching on our freedom under the guise of gun control, we must show strength, not weakness.  Also, in our foreign policy, we have to reinforce America's free market.  Other than tariffs on our enemies we should be very cautious about imposing taxes on American citizens for purchasing foreign goods.  Initially, this will help a select few industries temporarily, but will only hurt more industries in the long term. We are witnessing an anti-industrial revolution to de-grow our progress. Yet the progressive propagandists have focused on de-growing our economy in the name of climate change.  Claiming we need to use less of this and less of that and it's destroying us.  Later, the Statue of Liberty is not the Statue of welfare. Public charge rules are exactly how we've been able to add more immigrants into America every year than any other country on the planet.  The poem on Lady Liberty is about the opportunity to make it on your own in this great country, not to get handouts.  After, Bernie Sanders said that US foreign policy should be even-handed when dealing with terrorist organizations just like dealing with sovereign nation-states.   Then, the people of Hong Kong are fighting to maintain their freedom and China is reneging on their agreement.  This is not an internal problem of China's; America must stand up for liberty.  Lastly, Gordon Chang, author of the "Coming Collapse of China" joins the program to highlight the need to confront China's malign activity and support the sovereignty that Hong King is standing up for.

Dan Lok, multi-millionaire, entrepreneur, investor, speaker, and King of High-Ticket Closing, immigrated with his mom from Hong King to Canada as a child. From humble beginnings bagging groceries, Dan has built a global business empire and is impacting countless lives. Most real estate agents want to make a lot of money, and yet are conflicted with limiting beliefs about money and wealth. Dan says, “Most people want it, but are not comfortable with wealth.” Negative beliefs about wealthy people limit you. If you believe rich people are bad, greedy or evil, your subconscious mind will never let you have a lot of money. You have to overcome negative programming to make success sustainable. 1. Get comfortable with success by exposing yourself to where successful people hang out. This will help you stop thinking from a scarcity mindset and embrace an abundance mindset. 2. Focus on making a huge impact rather than the income. The more value you add, the more money you will make.
