I am requesting all of your help. I need to find a website or a file online that has the whole 1994 version of the Carousel of Progress, just audio.

It would be awesome if any of you could find and report back here something.

P.S. I have already checked MouseBits and for some reason none of the downloads work and download onto my computer.

We’ve already told you about France’s fines for Muslim women who wear a full face cover in public ... but can you believe that the happiest place on Earth is following suit?

According to The Huffington Post, a Muslim woman who is employed as a hostess at a Disneyland restaurant filed a complaint with the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission claiming that the park would not allow her to appear in front of customers while wearing her head scarf.

Imane Boudlal, 26, said she wore her traditional hijab to work last Sunday and her supervisors told her that the hostess either had to remove it or work somewhere where customers at the Storyteller restaurant couldn’t see her.

Boudlal, who was wearing the scarf in observance of Ramadan, said she went home that day, but when she came back to work the next two days she got the same message from management. Though she’d worked at the restaurant for more than two years, the Moroccan native said she only realized she could wear her hijab to work after studying for her U.S. citizenship exam in June.

A Disney spokesperson said the company has a non-discrimination policy and explained that “typically somebody in an on-stage position like hers wouldn’t wear something like that, that’s not part of the costume.” After asking again if she could wear the scarf to work, she waited two months for a reply and was then told that she had to wait for Disneyland’s costume department to come up with a Mickey-certified garment that would comply with the Disney look.

Though she was fitted for a Disney-approved hijab, she was never notified about when it would be finished. Told she could not wear her own head covering in the meantime, a frustrated Boudlal decided to wear her hijab to work on Sunday and was sent behind the scenes as a result. ]]> Walt Disney World (WDW) News Keasmom http://www.wdwradio.com/forums/walt-disney-world-wdw-news/23625-dl-employee-hijab-huh.html http://www.wdwradio.com/forums/walt-disney-world-wdw-news/23541-tta-renamed-peoplemover.html Thu, 05 Aug 2010 21:10:50 GMT ?PeopleMover’ is Coming Back at Walt Disney World Disney Parks Blog

Friday, June 25th the POTC ride caught on fire at Walt Disney World. My family and I were actually on it as this happened. The ride started out normal but after the pirate ship scene I noticed a strong burning smell and a lot of smoke up in the air that I knew wasn't normal. Then the lights on the ride came on...in the town scene there was a real fire burning next to one of the shops. It was a pretty descent size fire. The lights came on and there was heavy smoke, but oddly that was it. No announcements or alarms...the ride continued with the lights on and no audio. We saw some cast members come scrambling in running around on the bridge overhead and people were shouting to them where the fire was....they had no idea what was happening. I found this strange. But it was a very interesting experience none the less. I never did find out what exactly happened. It was closed for the remainder of the day that I saw, with cast members out from playing with fake pirate swords in Disney's "everything is just fine" fasion. If anyone else saw this or has news please let me know!!! ]]> Walt Disney World (WDW) News dcbush12 http://www.wdwradio.com/forums/walt-disney-world-wdw-news/23258-potc-catches-fire.html http://www.wdwradio.com/forums/walt-disney-world-wdw-news/23244-golden-oak-neighborhood.html Thu, 24 Jun 2010 18:23:12 GMT Has anyone else seen this new residential neighborhood they're building? I think it's kinda ridiculous actually. It's a glorified Celebration, FL.

They're going to build it 3 miles from both Magic Kingdom and Epcot with houses ranging from $1.5M-$9M! That is so expensive it's not even funny.
I know you get what you pay for, but this just seems like overkill.
