Donald Trump joked that he had been indicted more than notorious mafia gangster Al Capone. He noted that he is "setting records" for his historic indictments. AdvertisementAdvertisementFormer President Donald Trump joked that he had been indicted more than famed gangster Al Capone. "When they indicted me — and then again and again and again — I was never indicted, now I'm setting records. Al Capone was not indicted so much," Trump said while speaking at a California Republicans convention in Anaheim on Friday.

Donald Trump suggested that California keep its vast forests damp to prevent wildfire. AdvertisementAdvertisementFormer President Donald Trump revealed an unusual plan to stop wildfires from raging in California. Trump has previously falsely claimed that California wildfires were sparked by trees that "explode," and he has long subscribed to the theory that wildfires could be prevented if forests were cleared of dead trees and debris. In 2018, Trump suggested raking leaves on forest floors could help prevent fires. Trump did not provide further details about his damp forests plan, but he said California Governor Gavin Newsom would probably roadblock him.

The Astros remain 2 1/2 games behind the American League West-leading Texas Rangers (88-68), who beat the Los Angeles Angels 5-1 in Anaheim, Calif., on Monday. Josh Rojas led off with a double into the right field corner, ending Verlander's bid for his first complete game since Sept. 1, 2019. It appeared Castillo might escape the inning unscathed as he got Chas McCormick to ground out to second and struck out Jeremy Pena. Verlander induced an inning-ending double play to get out of the jam, then retired the next 15 batters in a row before Rojas' double in the ninth.

The DVD business destroyed competitors like Blockbuster and altered the viewing habits of the public. Once Netflix began its streaming business and then started producing original content, it transformed the entire entertainment industry. Even before the strikes, streaming had rendered DVDs obsolete, at least from a business perspective. In comparison, Netflix’s streaming revenue for the same period reached $6.5 billion. (One hundred people at Netflix still work on the DVD side of the business, though most will soon be leaving the company.)

Disney’s theme parks will generate an estimated $10 billion in profit this year, up from $2.2 billion a decade ago. Disney’s overseas parks — aside from Tokyo Disney Resort, which it receives royalties from but does not own — have sometimes struggled to turn a profit. That amount is double what Disney spent on parks and the cruise line over the past decade, which was itself a period of greatly increased investment. Disney has also poured money into its Paris and Hong Kong parks, with themed expansions tied to “Frozen” and other Disney films scheduled to open soon. Three more ocean liners are on the way, bringing the Disney fleet to eight ships, and Disney is nearing completion of a new port on a Bahamian island.

Sept 19 (Reuters) - Walt Disney (DIS.N) said on Tuesday it would nearly double its capital expenditure for its parks business to about $60 billion over the next 10 years. Disney CEO Bob Iger and Josh D'Amaro, the company's parks chief, announced the accelerated pace of investment at a gathering of Wall Street analysts and investors at Walt Disney World Resort in Orlando, Florida, focused on the company's parks business. Parks have become a reliable profit engine for Disney and has helped cushion losses in the Disney+ streaming business, which is expected to become profitable only next year. The announcement of the planned investment followed a slowdown at Walt Disney World in Orlando, as attendance surges at its parks around the world, particularly Shanghai Disney Resort and Hong Kong Disneyland. Disney also plans to nearly double the capacity of its cruise line, adding two ships in fiscal 2025 and another in 2026.

It will become the third theme park within the Universal Orlando Resort, stepping up its rivalry with Walt Disney World’s four theme parks.

The two-way superstar missed his 11th consecutive game with an oblique muscle injury Friday night when the Angels lost 11-2 to Detroit. Although Ohtani was at the stadium before the game, the soon-to-be free agent's locker was largely empty afterward. Nearly all of the personal items had been removed from his locker and the adjoining empty stall. Ohtani has been mum about his future, and his recent injuries have further altered the discussion about his long-term plans.

Only Willett was on the road with the Cold War Kids, opening for Tears for Fears on a North America tour. There are 30 more dates on his schedule after Cold War Kids announced a tour on Tuesday in support of its self-titled 10th album — 12 songs that touch on everything from breaking up with a therapist to gender norms to confronting a toxic past. After releasing a trilogy of albums over three straight years and mulling over a more dramatic departure from the band's indie rock sound, Willett said Cold War Kids' new music is more about what it does best — leading to the eponymous title. It was a suggestion by his wife, Kristina Dahlin, who thought he needed a new hobby while Cold War Kids was off the road for a while.

▼ + stars: | 2023-09-08 | by ( Samantha Delouya | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +2 min

CNN —The Walt Disney Company agreed to pay $9.5 million to settle a class-action lawsuit that accused the entertainment giant of “deceptive business practices” in regard to its Disneyland annual pass program, according to a court filing Thursday. The suit alleges that “thousands of people” with Magic Key passes may have been affected and were eligible to participate in the class action suit. A statement attributed to Disneyland officials said they “are satisfied that this matter has been resolved.”The attorneys representing affected Magic Key pass-holders did not immediately respond to CNN’s request for comment. Disney’s Magic Key pass program was introduced two years ago, replacing the theme parks’ legacy Annual Pass Program. Disneyland offers four Magic Key passes at different price points.

Mandatory Credit: Orlando Ramirez-USA TODAY Sports Acquire Licensing RightsAug 24 (Reuters) - Los Angeles Angels two-way star Shohei Ohtani has a torn ligament in his right elbow and will not pitch again this season, the team's General Manager Perry Minasian said on Wednesday. However, Minasian later said Ohtani had a torn ulnar collateral ligament (UCL), adding that it was too soon to tell whether surgery was required. "We're in the process of getting second opinions," Minasian said. The Angels will take on the New York Mets on Friday and Minasian said he hoped Ohtani would be able to return as a batter this season.
