Walt Disney's Enchanted Tiki Room closed this week to perform routine maintenance on the lighting, sound, and show. The mighty tree of Tangaroa will be recreated from a high resolution digital scan.

Antonio has been working at the Disneyland Resort for 18 years, and has received over 735 cast compliments from guests.

Summary In this conversation, Becca shares her insider tips for navigating Disneyland during the busy Spring Break season. She discusses the timing of spring breaks across the country, strategies for managing crowds, the importance of utilizing Lightning Lanes, and dining tips to enhance the experience. The conversation emphasizes setting realistic expectations for visitors to ensure a fun and memorable trip. Links: Save on Disneyland and other theme parks: https://getawaytoday.com/castletalk Rope Drop strategies: https://thiscrazyadventurecalledlife.com/rope-drop-disneyland/ Episode on YouTube with visuals of LightningLane hack: https://youtu.be/I0H5LWyQP50?si=G9_XytFAsAEmjgM0&t=444     Takeaways Spring break at Disneyland spans March and April, peaking around Easter. Weekends during spring break can be less crowded due to local Magic Key holders being blocked out. Families should prioritize their schedules over school spring break dates. Rope drop is the best strategy for low crowds in the morning. Utilizing Lightning Lanes effectively can save time during busy periods. Dining at off-peak hours can help avoid long lines and crowded seating. The park has hidden seating areas that can be utilized for meals. Setting realistic expectations can lead to a more enjoyable experience. Encouraging family members to choose must-do rides can help manage expectations. Packing patience is essential for navigating the park during busy times.     Keywords Disneyland, Spring Break, insider tips, crowd management, family vacation, Lightning Lane, dining strategies, realistic expectations

In episode #286, we're joined by John Weisbrod, former NHL executive, scout and NBA GM. Yes, you read that correctly.  After a playing career that saw Weisbrod win a National Championship at Harvard and attend the San Jose Sharks first training camp, he pivoted to a career in team building at just 25 years-ols. After getting his start in Albany of the AHL, he would travel to Orlando where his time with the  IHL's Solar Bears resulted in him being named the GM of the Magic for one season. Following that, he would return to hockey, spending time as a scout and Assistant GM with the Calgary Flames and Vancouver Canucks. You're going to want to hear Weisbrod's story. He might just be the most interesting man in hockey.  Listen as he shares the story behind running an NBA franchise, key lessons while working under Lou Lamoriello and why hockey sense runs throughout the Hughes family.

Before we head to the bayou, here are five fast facts about Tiana's Bayou Adventure at Disneyland. 1. In June of 2020, Disney announced they would be re-theming Splash Mountain at Disneyland and Magic Kingdom to Tiana's Bayou adventure, based on the 2009 film The Princess and the Frog. 2. The Magic Kingdom version of the attraction opened on June 28, 2024 and the Disneyland version is scheduled to open on November 15, 2024.  The audio for this episode was recorded during Magic Key holder previews on November 5, 2024. 3.  In September 2022, it was announced that several voice actors from the original film would be reprising their roles to provide voices for the attraction.  This includes Anika Noni Rose as Tiana and Michael-Leon Wooley as Lewis 4. Tiana's Bayou Adventure features 48 audio animatronics in the attraction including several state of the art figures for Tiana and Lewis. 5. The storyline of the attraction has Tiana's Foods built on a salt dome.  This inspiration was taken from the Avery Island salt dome in Louisiana.  Let's hop a log to Tiana's Foods.  After the ride audio I'll give you my thoughts on this attraction.  This is a binaural recording so if you have headphone put them on now as we ride Tiana's Bayou Adventure at Disneyland!

**NOTICIAS ECONÓMICAS Y FINANCIERAS** ☕️ El Departamento de Justicia de EE. UU. (DOJ) ha recomendado posibles medidas antimonopolio contra Google ($GOOG), sugiriendo incluso una posible división de la empresa como remedio. En un archivo judicial, el DOJ mencionó que las soluciones podrían incluir requisitos contractuales, de no discriminación de productos, interoperabilidad de datos y otras disposiciones estructurales. El caso, presentado en 2020, argumenta que Google ha mantenido su monopolio en el mercado de búsquedas, infringiendo la Sección 2 de la Ley Sherman. Google planea apelar, y se espera una decisión sobre los remedios en 2025, mientras enfrenta otros casos antimonopolio relacionados. Boeing ($BA) recibió una advertencia de S&P sobre una posible degradación a bonos basura debido a las huelgas de 33,000 trabajadores, que exigen un aumento salarial del 40% y la restitución de un plan de pensiones.

Aunque las entregas crecieron respecto al año anterior, las acciones han caído un 42% desde su máximo anual.

También se incrementaron los precios del programa de pases anuales Magic Key, con el pase más básico subiendo a $599. Estos aumentos ocurren en medio de una desaceleración en la afluencia y un aumento de costos operativos. OpenAI ($AI), respaldada por Microsoft ($MSFT), está expandiendo su presencia global con la apertura de nuevas oficinas en varias ciudades del mundo. En una publicación en X, la empresa anunció que abrirá oficinas en Nueva York, Seattle, París, Bruselas y Singapur, además de las ya existentes en San Francisco, Londres, Dublín y Tokio. Oliver Jay ha sido nombrado director general internacional para liderar esta expansión global desde Singapur, donde se establecerá un centro para las operaciones en la región Asia-Pacífico. Esta expansión sigue a una ronda de financiamiento de $6.6 Billones, que ha llevado a OpenAI a una valoración de $157 Billones. La compañía planea usar estos fondos para aumentar su capacidad de investigación en IA, mejorar su infraestructura y continuar desarrollando herramientas innovadoras. Se espera que OpenAI genere $3.7 Billones en ingresos en 2024.

The maintenance barn for the trolly is where the new Avengers Infinity Defense attraction will be constructed, so it needs to be taken down.

In this episode of The Gate 15 Interview, Andy Jabbour talks with Sharon Polsky and Hanna Bozaov in the first of a two-part series on encryption. All three participants are members of the Global Encryption Coalition. Sharon Polsky. Sharon joins us from Canada. She is president of the Privacy and Access Council of Canada, and has most recently testified at Parliamentary and Senate committees, and spoke the 2023 IGF in Kyoto. A brief bio is available here. Sharon on LinkedIn. Hanna Bozakov. Hanna joins us from Germany. Hanna is with Tuta Mail, the encrypted email service from Germany, formerly Tutanota. Together with Tuta, she fights for our right to privacy and freedom of speech. Hanna on LinkedIn. Encryption 101: What it is and why is it important. The Global Encryption Coalition and why they're involved. Law Enforcement & legislation in Canada, Europe and broadly. Best privacy practices for individuals and organizations. Recommendations for law enforcement and legislators Three Questions! In the discussion Sharon, Hanna and Andy discuss:“There is no way to implement such proposals in the context of end-to-end encrypted communications without fundamentally undermining encryption and creating a dangerous vulnerability in core infrastructure that would have global implications well beyond Europe” – ⁠⁠Meredith Whittaker⁠⁠, President, Signal, in a ⁠⁠public blog post⁠⁠, 17 Jun 2024, in response to controversial European Union legislative proposal to scan the private messages of citizens in a bid to detect child sexual abuse material (CSAM). “Politicians must understand that the magic key for law enforcement to unlock encrypted data will never exist. There are too many examples in history that show how vulnerabilities that should have been only known to law enforcement got exploited by Chinese hackers, by Russian state hackers. So yes, criminals use encryption to hide their criminal activities but this does not justify outlawing encryption for everyone. If we do this the Internet as a whole will become so insecure… if you want to live in free and open democracies - not in a Stasi like country where everything is monitored - we must accept there is no easy solution. Our freedom requires privacy and thus encryption. So one thing is for sure - encryption must remain secure, otherwise the bad actors will have already won.” – Hanna Bozakov, Tuta Mail, in our interview, 18 Jun 2024 Selected links: Global Encryption Coalition. The Global Encryption Coalition (GEC) was founded in 2020 by the Center for Democracy & Technology, Global Partners Digital and the Internet Society and now has over 350 members.
