It’s been about five minutes, so what does that mean? Time for another Disney live-action remake! (Wink.) This version of the 1992 animated musical Aladdin was directed by Guy Ritchie, who wanted to make a children’s film for his five kids.

The evil Jafar grabs power and gets in the way of their happiness together. What’s a street rat to do?

On Wednesday, he achieved that dream by climbing to the peak of Mount Everest, but shortly after his summit, the 55-year-old member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints suffered what his family believes was a heart attack. Despite the mountain guides’ attempts to save Cash’s life with CPR and oxygen, he ultimately passed away Wednesday on Mount Everest, where his body will remain.

Like many other girls, Emily Grace Tucker spent her childhood dreaming about what it would be like to be a princess. In her case, that dream is coming true several times over this summer at Tuacahn, thanks to her role as Ariel in Disney’s “The Little Mermaid” and multiple princess roles in various sections of Disney’s “When You Wish.”

Born in Tonga in 1962, Elder Vai Sikahema was 5 years old when his family traveled to the nearest temple in New Zealand for the first time. "Whatever could be sold was sold for our passage to New Zealand," Elder Sikahema says in a new LDS Living video.

The royal family and nobles here are Free Wesleyan Christians and 62 percent of the population has membership in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, so when King Tupou VI welcomed President Russell M. Nelson to the royal palace, religious liberty was a key topic.
