You can’t really get mad while waiting at Sea World Orlando for the “Baby Shark Mini Live Show.” You asked for this. There are many strollers. Wandering children fall into the bushes. No preschool children will watch while they watch moms or while they are filming them over and over again. To be clear, it went viral with ear bug songs and dances 10 years ago, not the show’s newborn, real live shows, swimming sharks. Demand remains. On the first day, 45 minutes before Showtime, a line of young families spread out from the Seaport Theater to the pearl diving…

Desantis appointee Uthmeier also sells “Alligator Alcatraz”…
Customers who tried Rite Aid at Gittings Marketplace in the final week of mid-June found themselves 90% off shuttered pharmacies, empty fridge cases, various greeting cards and beauty products, but few others. The Party City Sign, across from the North Baltimore Drugstore on York Road, is above a building left behind by balloon and party supply retailers in February. A vast pocket, three miles away in Towson Place, remains in the previous Bed Bath & Beyond and Walmart stores. This is a recurring pattern in the Baltimore area and elsewhere, where “big boxes” and chain retailers have accelerated store closure…

SpaceX has windows for more than two hours on Monday evening, and tries to launch a European satellite, but the weather may not cooperate. Falcon 9, the second MTGS1 mission of EumetSat’s third-generation weather satellite, targets the lift-off in a 150-minute launch window starting at 5:04pm from Kennedy Space Center launch pad 39-A. The Wednesday backup opportunity has the same boot window. However, the weather is not good for either option. The Space Launch Delta 45 weather squadron predicts a 20% chance of good condition on Tuesday, dropping to 10% on Wednesday. Both days have a high chance of thunderstorms…
