Good morning. It's Saturday, August 12. First up, as Orlando's airport manages a $3.1 billion expansion and 43 million passengers a year, it also has a conspicuous accounting task to conclude: paying claims for shuttle trouble this year.

Next, instead of a quiet goodbye, Disney has released limited special merchandise this month to mark Sunday's end of The Great Movie Ride and Ellen's Energy Adventure.
