Mahlagha Jaberi will be at Beverly Hills City Hall today for a meeting to improve the human rights for the women of Iran, they will be at City Hall from 1 pm to 4 pm.

We want for healthy evolution to happen in Iran, we want for the good people to take control of Iran, and Mahlagha Jaberi represents the new generation of Persians who want freedom, and good human rights. Mahlagha came from Iran to live in California, but she still marches for the women of Iran.

Maybe Mahlagha Jaberi can go on Good Morning America to talk about improving human rights for the women of Iran.

Salute,

Tony V.

Today Dr Charles Stanley talked about how we always have a friend in Jesus, and about how we need to love other people the way that Jesus loves us.

I rode a Greyhound Bus across the USA and back by myself, and I went to France by myself and I went to Italy by myself, and I always feel like God is watching over me when I travel. And so too do I try to be a good citizen when I travel.

And as we work to love our neighbors, I am reminded of the song "In The Ghetto" by Elvis, the song always made me cry as a kid, but now the USA is rich and we do not need to allow bitter suffering and poverty in our ghettos, we need to spend some money to clean up our ghettos and to help the people and to build schools, and parks, and libraries, and we can send them good food from California and we can send them cheap supplies from Mexico, etc. We in the USA need to spend some money to make it nicer in our ghettos.

One thing that the sports teams can do, and the stadium owners, etc, is that they can have a $2 gate fee to go to charity work in each city, in Chicago, and Saint Louis, and in Detroit, etc. They can spend the money to help Foster Children, and Abused Women, and to build libraries in poor neighborhoods, etc.

And as we do trade with Mexico then it really helps the poor Mexicans. As we send Mexican goods to the Ghettos then it will help everyone, along with food from California, etc.

Salute,

Right now is a great time for the producers of content who make the Entertainment in today's climate. Jobs are picking up here in Hollywood, and I have a friend who is working at a studio on a movie set right now. And as long as we continue to have the best schools then we will always have great people. Now someone needs to build a movie studio in Anaheim that is close enough for me to walk to, my neighborhood has an industrial zone, and we could have a studio like the Occidental Studio in East Hollywood.

Salute,

Sometimes I see stars in our neighborhood, including Hugh Laury from the television show "House." And we certainly have beautiful women here in Anaheim. That is a fun thing about going to the market here is that you never know who you will meet that day. And even the bodega around the corner has stars visit, some stars like the little unknown bodegas, and it is a great spot for tacos and beer.

Salute,

30% of our people here in California are immigrants who were born in other nations.

So, that means that we get to teach them what it means to be an American.

When I was young I was taught to be honest, and to work hard for my money. I was taught that if you are honest then people will love you, but if you steal or deal drugs then people will hate you. And if you are honest then you will not waste time in prison, etc.

So, that is what we need to teach our new immigrants. We need to teach our immigrants to work hard, and to always be honest. For our Farm Workers we have the United Farm Workers which is a wonderful organization, and we can work together with the UFW to teach and educate our immigrants, and they learn to do honest work with the UFW.

At Pepperdine people are taught Business, and they learn about manufacturing, distribution, marketing, etc, etc, etc. We need to make sure that the Business students are able to get Business loans when they graduate, and we need for the graduates to create jobs here in California, and in Kentucky, etc.

In San Bernardino the beautiful malls are gone, and San Bernardino has the worst crime in the state of California. We need to teach the people of San Bernardino how to behave in the USA, 30% of the people in San Bernardino are from other nations, we need to teach the new immigrants how to behave in the USA. We need to teach them how to do honest Business, and how to make honest money. California is rich and there is no need for bitter poverty and suffering in California, and there is no reason for crime in California. We need to teach the new people how to behave in a wealthy and classy state like California. We are the 5th leading economy in the world just by ourselves here in California, there is no need for crime and poverty. The first McDonald's was in San Bernardino, and now McDonald's is global, the people of San Bernardino need to be taught how to do honest Business, they can prosper.

Here in Anaheim we have Disneyland, and we receive 50,000 new tourists every day to sell stuff to, there is no need for crime here. We have great schools, students from Fullerton Community College can go right to work for Disney, and we have Chapman film school, and other great schools. There is no reason for crime here. We need to teach the new people how to sell stuff to the tourists here. You can get rich as easily as selling hamburgers to tourists, there is no need for poverty nor crime.

Las Vegas is booming right now, the economy in Vegas is great, and we can expand on the success of Vegas by building a high speed train between Las Vegas and Disneyland in Anaheim. And many honest opportunities are being created, anyone could go to a casino in Nevada to get a job, I was a cook at a casino in Battle Mountain for 2 years, and those opportunities are beneficial.

If people can make honest money then there is no reason for crime. And we need to build schools instead of prisons so that we can teach people how to make honest money. There is no reason for the crime here, and we need to teach our new immigrants who make up 30% of our society that the California Dream is real and that you can get rich while being honest, and there is no reason for crime here. California is very wealthy, and the USA is rich now, we need to behave like the educated rich people behave.

And we need for all of our poor people to read "On Becoming A Person" by Carl Rogers, and we need to all value ourselves as people, we are beautiful people in a wealthy country and there is no reason for extreme poverty and suffering here in California nor in the USA.

Salute,

Tony V.

Habitat for Humanity
20 minutes

When a family slides that key into the lock of a house they have helped build, they are unlocking more than just the physical front door to their new home. They are unlocking their fullest potential. And where does that lead? Health. Education. Opportunity. Community. 

Jonathan Reckford, CEO of Habitat for Humanity International.

-----------

Land in Battle Mountain, Nevada only costs $1,000 per acre, Habitat For Humanity can build nice high density apartments like in Santorini, Greece, complete with swimming pools and tennis courts, for very cheap. They can do trade with San Francisco to create jobs. And the economy in Nevada is booming.

Salute,

Tony V.

Japanese culture has a lot of expectations, and when you can't meet these expectations you become a failure.
So these people just end up locking themselves in their rooms for weeks.
Called "HIKIKOMORI".
All men, seemingly.
Very common in Japan.

Yuichi Ishii, an actor, decided to do something about it.
He started a company, hired women, and trained them to just talk to the Hikikomori.
He gave the lonely people "sisters to rent".
Talk, walk around in society.
This way he got over 300 people to come out of their rooms, feel better.
Cool.
