## Resource

The world's largest retailer, Walmart, just reported its worst sales growth in more than six years. Last quarter, the Arkansas-based company saw its store sales rise just 2.6 percent. This comes as overall retail spending dropped in July, and according to the University of Michigan, consumer sentiment fell about 8% this August. Meanwhile, Disneyland is finally giving Tomorrowland the major makeover fans have been asking for. Disney announced at D23 that the iconic land will be reimagined with new attractions, more open spaces, and a renewed focus on Walt Disney's original vision for the future. While the project is still in its early stages, it marks one of the biggest planned changes to Disneyland in decades. And, from horseback riding in Burbank to tacos in Los Feliz, arcade games in Pasadena and dancing at Club Tee Gee, Love Island USA host Ariana Madix is sharing her ideal Sunday around Los Angeles. Fresh off filming the latest season in Fiji, the Emmy-winning host says she's enjoying being back home and soaking up everything L.A. has to offer. Read more at https://www.latimes.com
