News: An iconic part of Disneyland history – and Disney in general will be getting refurbished soon. 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. The current Tangaroa is no longer able to be repaired, having been there since the attraction opening in 1963. The attraction will reopen later this summer. – https://www.laughingplace.com/disney-parks/tangaroa-tree-be-rebuilt-during-upcoming-refurbishment-walt-disneys-enchanted-tiki-room-disneyland/ https://www.micechat.com/146135-rolly-crump-impostor-syndrome-part-2/ Tour dates are open for the new guided tour coming to Disneyland for the 70th anniversary.

WALL-E was in the lobby of the Pixar Place Hotel roaming around and greeting guests. He also opened up his storage compartment to share the plant, potted in the boot, just like in the movie! – https://www.disneyfoodblog.com/2025/04/24/dear-disney-we-are-begging-for-this-rare-character-meet-and-greet-to-become-permanent/ As we reported on previously, some permits have been filed with the Anaheim Planning and Building Department in relation to Porto's coming to Downtown Disney. We talked about removing the two ticket booths from the esplanade, but did not mention the permit to tear down the existing building – currently home to Earl of Sandwich. No timeline on the permits, but this is forward progress. – https://www.micechat.com/413960-disneyland-news-portos-permits-construction-walls-star-wars/ Once again, Disneyland Cast Members were invited to create upcycled art projects to be shown off to guests for Earth Month.

The display is under the Silly Symphony Swings for guests to enjoy. – https://www.micechat.com/413960-disneyland-news-portos-permits-construction-walls-star-wars/ This week, the Disney Parks Blog recognized a cast member who brings joy to countless (or not so countless) guests. Antonio has been working at the Disneyland Resort for 18 years, and has received over 735 cast compliments from guests. Antonio works at Pixar Pier attractions and before Disneyland, worked for nearly 10 years in hospitality in Dubai and Qatar. Antonio's rise to fame is in part due to his exuberant energy and fun dance moves for guests! – https://disneyparksblog.com/dlr/dancing-disneyland-resort-cast-member-inspires-happiness/ Last week, we talked about recycling your food scraps at Disneyland. Since then, little droids have appeared on top of food scraps containers to remind guests that only food scraps should be deposited in the bin they are standing on. – https://www.micechat.com/413960-disneyland-news-portos-permits-construction-walls-star-wars/ A new way to checkout at Boardwalk Pizza & Pasta has arrived. A kiosk for guest self-checkout has been installed. The system scans the items on the tray, adds it up, and asks for payment. Currently, Magic Key discounts must involve a cast member, and payment can only be made with credit or debit card. – https://www.micechat.com/413960-disneyland-news-portos-permits-construction-walls-star-wars/ Weeklyteers who may be in the parks starting May 9th should know that it is Grad Nite season at the resort again, and park hours may be impacted.

Interview by Kris PetersSince releasing their acclaimed debut album Tū (2018), New Zealand metal warriors Alien Weaponry have been lauded for their kinetic presence and sound, as well as their vital blend of culturally profound lyricism in both English and te reo Māori, the indigenous language of New Zealand.Still in their teens when that album took the world by storm and with the sudden burden of expectation thrust upon their shoulders, Alien Weaponry bunkered down, surrounding themselves with family and away from the clutches of industry people potentially looking to exploit both their talent and youth. It proved a masterstroke, with the young band following up with Tangaroa (2021) and earned them the title of 'the future of heavy metal' by Metal Hammer and led to tours around the world with the likes of Guns N' Roses, Gojira, Slayer and the New Zealand Symphony Orchestra.But, they say, a band's third album is the most defining one of their career and that moment has come with the impending release of Te Rā (March 28).Described as their heaviest, most powerful and mature offering to date, Alien Weaponry feel like they have returned with a point to prove. HEAVY caught up with the newest member of the band, bass player Tūranga Morgan-Edmonds, to find out more."I think we were definitely nervous going into the first single," he began when asked how the band are feeling about the album finally seeing the light of day. "I think the single probably had a lot more nerves surrounding it than the album itself. Because, you know, it's a new stage in the band's evolution and sound. And it's the first time I've been a part of the writing and recording process. And particularly because the first single was a song that I had written myself (laughs).So I was sort of like, Oh, God, what if people don't like it? That's my creative input that people don't like. But then of course the song came out and the response has been awesome. Now as we slowly trickle into the album release tomorrow there's been two more singles come out and people seem to love those as well."Talk turns to the music side of Te Rā and what sound they were trying to achieve."We took a step back," he measured. "Obviously, the first album was such a force onto the scene and left a strong impression on a lot of people when that came out in 2018. And the second album didn't quite land where they had wanted to. And when we went to the third album, we were sort of like, OK, what is it that we want to achieve? Are we trying to create a new sound entirely? Are we trying to create something familiar? And so what we decided on was trying to actually find a balance between the highlights of both albums, even the second one. So the second one, what people liked, of course, was the sort of move towards a more technical approach, so maybe more complication in the riffs and the writing structures. And then also a lot of people quite liked the much more traditional sounding Māori vocals, not just singing in another language, but singing in the style of that language, if that makes sense."In the full interview, Turanga further introduced the band's upcoming third album, Te Ra, highlighting the blend of genres and the incorporation of Te Reo Māori to maintain cultural authenticity. He shared his excitement about collaborating with Randy Blythe from Lamb of God, who contributed vocals to a track after their connection on Instagram, emphasizing the influence of Lamb of God on their music. Tu reflected on the band's growth from newcomers to respected figures in the metal scene, acknowledging the challenges of touring post-pandemic.He expressed optimism for a more extensive touring schedule following the album's release, with management actively working on overseas plans, went back to when he joined Alien Weaponry and more.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/heavy-music-interviews--2687660/support.

Welcome to the summer science series! We're kicking off with two stories made by local podcast producers. First, on New Zealand's quest to become predator free by 2050, are we forgetting about mice? Dan Moskovitz, a student at Victoria University of Wellington, investigates what might happen to mice – and ecosystems as more areas become predator free. Then, a story from Xanthe Smith's Catch On podcast. Many people who consume fish stick to eating the fillets, meaning a substantial chunk of the whole fish gets chucked. A project seeks to tackle this food waste by connecting communities with kaimoana.Guests:Associate Professor Stephen Hartley, Victoria University of WellingtonDr Araceli SamaniegoBrent Bevan, Department of ConservationChris Jupp, Kai IkaVera, Kokiri Marae Naenae HubLearn more:Listen to more episodes of Catch On, a podcast by Xanthe Smith for the Office of the Prime Minister's Chief Science AdvisorFind out about the Kai Ika ProjectDr Araceli Samaniego's paper, Small mice create big problemsListen to Voice of Tangaroa for more exploration of ocean issuesWatch Fight for the Wild, a series about Predator Free 2050Go to this episode on rnz.co.nz for more details

Hacer click aquí para enviar sus comentarios a este cuento.Juan David Betancur Fernandezelnarradororal@gmail.comHabía una vez en un mundo Maorí en lo que hoy son la polinesias dos dioses que de tanto mirarse se enamoraron Eran Ranginui  o rangi el padre cielo y Papatuanuku o papa la madre tierra. Cuando ambos se enamoraron decidieron unirse en un abrazo fuerte y continuo. Tan fuerte y tan continuo que comenzaron a tener hijos pero estos permanecían entre ellos dos viviendo una oscuridad perpetua. Los hijos anhelaban  vivir en la luz.  Uno de los hijos llamado Tane se rebela con la situación y sugiere a los otros hermanos que deben separar a sus padre y a su madre para que ellos puedan disfrutar de la vida luz. Su plan es que su padre Rangi pueda vivir lejos de ellos y que su madre en cambio los acompañe cuidándolos.  Los hermano de Tane oyen el plan y deciden poner el plan en acción. El primero es Rongo, el dios de la comida quien intenta suavemente separarlos pero no lo logra, luego lo sigue Tangaroa este dios unió esfuerzos con Haumia el dios de la comida salvaje. Ambos tratan con más energía pero el abrazo entre sus padres continua y sus esfuerzos son inútiles.  Rangi y papa continúan unidos en un abrazo amoroso permanente.  Tane que es el dios de los bosques y los pájaros observa como sus hermanos intentan separar a los padres tomando una posición erguida y utilizando sus respectivos brazos. Tane se acuesta boca arriba y haciendo un gran esfuerzo con sus piernas logra que cada uno de los musculos de su cuerpo le ayuden a hacer presión sobre los dos padres. De esta manera logra que uno de los dos padres pierda la fuerza y comience a separarse del otro De pronto con un grito de dolor que retumba por cielo y tierra, Ranginui y Papatuanuku se separan.  Guerra en el Cielo y en la Tierra Comienza allí una tragedia donde Rangi y papa comienzan a llorar el uno por el otro. Separados viven mirándose y lamentándose.  Y así los hijos de Rangi y Papa ven la luz finalmente y logran tener espacio para moverse por primera vez. Mientras que los otros hijos han aceptado la separación, Tawhirimatea, el dios de las tormentas y los vientos, se enfada porque los padres han sido separados. No puede soportar escuchar los gritos de sus padres, ni ver las lágrimas de Rangi cuando se separa, por lo que promete a sus hermanos que de ahora en adelante, tendrán que lidiar con su ira. Tawhirimatea vuela para unirse a Rangi, y desde  allí se dedica a demostrar su frustración con sus propios descendientes los vientos que envía a cada punto de la tierra. Así que reuniendo a sus hijos, vientos y nubes llena la tierra de chubascos feroces, remolinos, tormentas, nubes espesas, niebla y huracanes de fuertes vientos y lluvias.  Los vientos y las tormentas muestran su poderío castigando de esta manera a los bosque y pájaros de Tane creando caos y tumbando los arboles que caen al suelo y se descomponen sirviendo de alimento para nuevas plantas e insecto Luego  Tawhirimatea dirige su ira contra los océanos y enormes olas formando remolinos hasta que Tangaroa, el dios del mar, huye presa del pánico con su hijo Punga  y hasta el día de hoy Tawhirimatea azota los mares con sus vientos.  , Tangaroa,  tiene dos hijos, Ikatere, padre de los peces y Tu-te-wanawana), el ancestro de  de los reptiles. Aterrorizados por la embestida de Tawhirimatea, los peces buscan refugio en el mar y los ríos. y los reptiles en los bosques.  Así es como Tane suministra a los descendientes de Tumatauenga el creador de los hombres  canoas, anzuelos y redes para atrapar a los descendientes de Tangaroa. Tangaroa por su parte contraataca inundando canoas y arrasando casas, tierras

Kate Evans visits a passionate team as they carpet a remote volcanic island in Tonga with poisoned bait, hoping to eradicate rats. What does it take to complete this kind of project, what are the chances of success, and what will it mean for the island's ecosystems if they manage to remove the rats once and for all?

New Zealand once led the world in marine protection. Now it looks like we will fail to meet our international promise to protect 30 percent of our ocean estate by 2030. Why is stopping fishing so politically fraught? How might our ideas about marine protection need to change? And why, when our seas are in need, is it taking us so long to learn to talk to each other?

The Bounty Islands are tiny in terms of area – just some bits of granite jutting out of the ocean. But they are huge in terms of seabirds. James Frankham joins a team researching the erect-crested penguins who breed in this remote archipelago. Recent counts suggest the penguins of the Bounties are doing fine. But this is not the case on the Antipodes Islands, and the researchers desperately want to know why.
