This year Xander Veguilla is named as the “TOP INDIE FILMMAKER” in Puerto Rico for 2015 as seen by the Veteranos Del Cine Y Entretenimiento. (#VCE) This will be an annual announcement to encourage the indie artists of Puerto Rico to keep moving forward with their positive work in the community.

Our standards to select a top filmmaker were based on the #PR2025 initiative of: Community, Youth, Veterans, Business, Leadership, and Education. After careful consideration we noticed a young man that met every pillar of our consideration. We believe that Mr. Xander Veguilla can easily take his talents to Hollywood, or anywhere in the world to tell visual stories with the best filmmakers around.

VCE recognizes how important it is to identify the next generation of independent filmmakers, digital artists, and the technology community in Puerto Rico. That is why we were particularly impressed by the full range of expertise that Mr. Xander Veguilla shared with us. This young man can write a script, direct the scene, handle the camera, make the edits, do color correction, and digitally distribute any digital product. The next generation of marketing for any small business is here. Indie filmmakers can very affordably revitalize the economy of Puerto Rico by joining forces with the small business community.

Go home refugees! You suck! ....or stay?

Arab refugees should NOT be discouraged to start a new life in a new country.

My name is George Ohan and I was born in Aleppo, Syria. I am also a U.S. Army veteran; eight years active duty.

This message is for the Arabs and many other people around the world that are forced to become refugees in this time of turmoil and conflict. Do not be discouraged to live the life that you imagine for yourself. You CAN make your desired life your reality; just like I did.

In 1981 my family had to leave Syria and ended up in Los Angeles, CA. My parents didn’t speak any English, and Hollywood was much different than anything they had seen. 

My suggestion to refugees is to avoid watching mainstream news outlets and avoid reading anything published  by mainstream news outlets. News in America and around the world is BIG business. The more drama and negativity that a story has, the more viewers a news company can possibly get to watch that story. Viewers = Money.  Right now “refugees and war” is their main business model. The news companies report the stories that they want to tell and sell. They scare the people in foreign countries to think that a “refugee” is a terrorist. What’s your story as a refugee? Have you seen that version on the news?

Do not be discouraged by tactics of hate. Do not react with hate and anger. Do not lose focus on the perfect life that you imagine for yourself. If you are reading this, then you still have a chance to become anything that you want to become in your life. You still have the chance to do the things that you have always wanted to do with your life. Plan it, and do it.

Honestly, I do not believe that people in America are afraid of terrorists moving into their neighborhoods. Maybe they are afraid to see hard working Arabs or “refugees” coming into their neighborhoods because refugees might start to be successful in the same places that the locals have been struggling? 

 Take me for example:

1. I had 3 jobs in high school (age 14 - 17)
2. I joined the U.S. Army at 17 years old
3. I was promoted to Sergeant by 20 years old
4. I was promoted to Staff Sergeant by 23 years old
5. I graduated with 2 U.S. college degrees
6. I was voted as alumni President for Veterans of my college
7. I was voted as the Student Veterans of America, chapter President
8. I have started 5 businesses on my own, and 2 with partners
9. I have helped Americans start over 100 businesses
10. I was voted as Chapter Captain of Team Red, White & Blue

The list of success can go on, but I hope that you get my point…. I didn't take those positions from anyone. I EARNED everything by working harder than those people around me. Usually when people don't like me, it's because their laziness is exposed when they are compared to me. The work ethic of a motivated and hungry immigrant is hard to match by average locals in any country. It's called a sense of "urgency", but media will try to call it an "insurgency."

I’m happy that my parents did not take the advice of many Americans when they were told things like, “Go back to your country.” 

When I was selected, voted, or promoted to positions of higher authority and responsibility nobody ever said, “Hey! That guy is a Syrian immigrant! Send him back to his country!” People were happy that I was the right person for the job. I, George Ohan, a Syrian immigrant have been beating Americans in competition my whole life. I didn’t have any special advantage to be set up for success over any other people. The only thing that I had control over was my attitude and perspective about my situation. I keep my mind focused on my ultimate desires, and my chances of success seem to be increasing significantly.

Refugees will have to work much harder than anyone else to prove who you are, but that’s ok. Proving WHO you are (your character) only shows with time and consistency of your actions. Keep doing the right thing in your new community, do it for the right reasons, do it for a long time, and good results will come from it.

As a refugee, you will identify “friendly” people along your journey. Build on relationships with tolerant people and create lasting friendships with locals. Everybody does not hate refugees. From my experience, I have found that people are very similar around the world. They show love and respect, when love and respect are shown to them and their home. 

(Mirza, Muslim and Bosnian Refugee living in USA)

Seek a mentor in your new community. Figure out how things are done in the new region that you live in, and add value to your new community. Home is where you make it. You have a huge opportunity to show the world about the love and caring that your culture offers.

May God be with you.

Very respectfully,

George Ohan

I'm happy that I was robbed in Puerto Rico.

http://www.truefortunes.com/

Positive Attitude is not a gimmick; It’s my way of life.

I choose gratitude as my tool for maintaining a positive attitude. I enjoy living a happy life by showing gratitude to the people that I deal with. It is a CHOICE to live happy. You can choose to be happy too.

People get “positivity” confused with “fantasy” sometimes.

Positivity doesn’t mean that bad things don’t happen to me. Positivity doesn’t mean that the universe must favor me or any of my plans. Positivity doesn’t even guarantee success after you spend a lifetime doing the “right thing” along your journey. Positivity DOES give you the tool to handle any negative situation, by always looking for the good no matter what you are faced with.

The  night before Thanksgiving 2015 in San Juan, Puerto Rico somebody smashed the window of our car at the Afrika Club. We were there to film a live performance of recording artist Eddie Lamenaza, but when we got back to our car from checking in with the club manager, the film and audio equipment was gone. Any "indie" filmmaker knows how bad this sucks.

A few of the items were:

Canon DSLR Camera

2 Lenses

H5 Zoom Audio

Lavalier Microphone

SD Cards

Batteries

Why did this happen to me? Am I a bad person? Is this Karma from something that I did when I was 16 years old? Where is this negativity coming from?

……..NONE of those questions matter.

I started to think about: I volunteer with veterans, I mentor kids, I help non-profit organizations, I treat people well, I even take my dog to the beach…… So, why me?

……..NONE of those things matter either.

(Brendan Masters, San Diego, CA - Plays Buckets. No Excuses.)

I DO what I do because it makes ME happy. The universe doesn’t trade my good deeds for a lower amount of negativity that can come my way. I can’t control WHAT happens to me in my life. We only have control of about 10% of anything that happens in our lives. I only have control over my reaction when something good or bad happens to me.

Fact: My film & audio equipment is gone.

Fact: It’s time for my reaction…….

I kept it cool. I thought to myself, “Good. I hope he bought his family a nice Thanksgiving Day dinner with the money he got for that stuff.”

“Maybe this is a sign that I needed to put the camera down, and focus on bigger things?”

“Now I have an opportunity to learn PhotoShop more. Or maybe I can buy a better camera? Oh damn, we should call the cops.”

That was my REAL reaction. I didn’t react this way because it would look better for a blog. I didn’t react this way because I thought that it would help to magically bring my stuff back. I reacted this way because I KNEW my stuff was gone. I could not control that situation from happening to me. I also knew that anger, hate, and over-thinking only leads to the BAD me.  Positivity and forward-thinking take a massive amount of work to achieve.

I do everything that I can to protect my mind and spirit from any negative thoughts entering or being created within myself.

Why would I poison myself with hate because somebody chose to do something bad to me? It doesn’t make sense to make myself FEEL bad for something that I didn’t have any control over.

Staying positive helps me keep a clear mind so I can make better decisions in tough times.

(Combat Veteran, USMC (Ret.) CPL Juan Dominguez; A HAPPY guy)

I didn’t post this on Facebook when it first happened because it was one day before a holiday break. I didn’t want people to see negativity on their timelines, and I’m happy that I did that.  It gave me time to focus on being happy with the people around me, instead of waiting to read the comments on a post about something bad that happened to me. By choosing to not post about this situation, I have been able to keep my mind clear of negativity.

Negativity destroys creativity, and I can’t afford that.

Thank you to my friend Luiz Burgos (U.S. Navy Veteran) for inviting us to enjoy Thanksgiving Day with his family in Caguas, PR. I'm happy that I didn't make an excuse of having a broken window to not go from Bayamon to Caguas to enjoy time with our Puerto Rican family. Saying YES is part of the happiness equation.

Let's Party!

History of the Landing Support Company and The Red Patch.

The Red Patch carries great significance within the Marine Corps history. During the World War ll Island-Hopping campaign, it was difficult to distinguish the combat troops who were landing on the beach and moving inland on the attack. This generated much confusion during the initial hours of an amphibious assault. Following the bloody Battle of Tarawa in 1943, it was decided that the support Marines working on the beach would have red patches sewn on their uniforms. This enabled them to stand out from the combat troops, return order to the landing beach, and maintain a fluid throughput of logistical support to the combat units fighting inland. 

                                                         

The current day Marines of the Landing Support Company have 

maintained the distinction of being the only Marines allowed to wear the distinctive markings of the red patch. This distinction has become a part of the rich history, tradition, and pride of the beloved “Red Patchers”.  

You deserve to be happy.... Like me!

I wanted to change, but how do I achieve a change in my life that will last a long time?

I had to figure out what were my beliefs and my values. I realized that with my belief & value system, I could not try to achieve what I wanted in life, and still make everyone around me happy. This is when I changed my focus to what makes ME happy.

We can’t “try” to change something about ourselves, because it's in our BELIEF system. We must be COMMITTED to changing a behavior in our life that we no longer need. We must try to understand “why” we want to change. Is the reason to change important enough to you? Will challenging your beliefs be beneficial to your life?

Maybe the thing that you want to change in your life was actually helpful to you at some point, to deal with certain situations? However, as we grow with our experiences, our life requires a new tool for our new level of life that we desire. 

This doesn’t mean that our old habits were “bad” or not useful. This just means that you no longer have a need for a certain behavior or habit after you’re ready to grow as a person. 

It’s OK to challenge your beliefs. It’s OK to create a new belief system that works for you. I like to model many of my beliefs after the patterns of people that have accomplished what I seek to accomplish. If Napoleon Hill, Anthony Robbins, and Mahatma Gandhi said it, I will consider their perspectives because I value their teachings. 

Who do you spend time with? This is who you will become. You need a mentor or group of people that share the same behaviors that you’d like to develop. 

We need to RAISE our standards. It’s easy to look good in front of people that are doing less than you. Find people that allow you to grow into a better you. Don’t be held down by the mentality of lesser thinking people that try to waste your valuable time with tasks that don’t help you meet your goals.

When was the last time you were excited about something? What motivates you? What makes you happy? *Really think about it.

There is NO “right” or “wrong” when you want to change.

You need to FOCUS on your desired results. Think about the good things that will happen when you change. That is what you’ll achieve. What do you want? How bad do you want it? What are you willing to sacrifice to get what you want?

CHANGE requires MASSIVE ACTION toward what you want. 

No massive action in life = No change in life. 

Everyone has a different talent that they’re blessed with. If you want to get “better” at anything that is not a natural talent of yours, a new skill can be developed. YES, it can. Are you willing to FOCUS and LEARN something new? If you are willing to commit, you will learn. 

YOU deserve to WIN! YOU deserve SUCCESS!

PROGRESS = HAPPINESS 
*Start making progress. You KNOW what needs to be done. Do it!

This did not come into being by accident or a fluke.
TrueFortune Cookies concept was conceived, created, designed and brought to life by a man who not only is a visionary but a rocket scientist, mechanical engineer, designer, psychologist, marriage and family therapist, hypnotherapist, counselor, marketing executive - and entrepreneur.

TrueFortune Cookies was only one of many creations and inventions (holder of 10 patents) that its creator is responsible for, some of these accomplishments include:

Lunar Excursion Module - Supervised the mechanical design for the rocket engine for this space vehicle which landed the first astronauts on the moon.  This engine had a 10/1 variable thrust and is the only engine ever produced in the U.S. with a variable thrust.

Satellites - Designed a hermetically-sealed explosive release mechanism for satellites.

London’s Millennium Bridge - Designed the hermetically-sealed damper with infinite life that was later used to control pedestrian-induced vibrations on the bridge.  Previous to the installation of the dampers the bridge swayed so much that it couldn’t be used.

Ships - Invented a system for supporting the inertial systems of ships to protect them from depth charge-induced shock, yet allow them to retain very precise alignment.

Chatty Cathy Doll - Designed the talking mechanism for this doll which was the very first talking mechanism ever for dolls that could utter multiple sentences.

MEET DAVID LEE

The Early Years

Lee was born and raised in Chicago, Illinois.  He migrated to California to attend California Institute of Technology (Cal Tech) in Pasadena where he received a Bachelor of Science degree in Mechanical Engineering.  During that time, he was married and subsequently had three children.  Years later, he would continue his education at the University of Southern California (USC) from which he obtained a Ph.D in mechanical engineering, and much later a Masters degree in Counselor Education.  While at USC, he was a member of the Alpha Sigma Lambda Scholarship Society.

Work HistoryDuring the course of his professional career, which has spanned six decades, Lee amassed a diversified background of work experience, ranging from research and science to manufacturing and psychological counseling to self-help education and marketing.  It has been a career distinguished not only by its diversity but by a record of innovation and creative achievements.

A brief review of his work experience:
· Garrett AiResearch (Designer) - His first work position, Lee designed the test equipment that ensured that motors, turbines and other
   engine parts worked properly.
· Firestone Tire and Rubber (Designer) - Working in its Guided Missile Division, Lee designed rocket engines, valves and other parts for the Corporal II missile, the nation’s first ballistic missile.
· Weber Aircraft (Designer) - Lee designed ejection seats for the B52 airplane.
· Mattel (Designer) - Lee designed the talking mechanism for the Chatty Cathy doll.

Ramo Woolridge (Section Head) - Working in its Space Technology Laboratories Division, Lee was in charge of all design for the mechanical portions of the LEM engine which was the one that landed astronauts on the moon.  He was also responsible for the design of valves, release mechanisms, unique vacuum chambers that simulate space as well as rocket engines.  For one project, he flew for three weeks in the Zero Gravity aircraft at Wright Patterson Air Force Base (see photos).

Mechanics Research, Inc. (Vice President R&D/Marketing) - Lee joined the company as its seventh employee and eventually become a part owner.  

Taylor Devices (West Coast Technical Director) - During his employment with this company, which manufacturers dampers and shock absorbers, Lee invented and patented several products.  He also functioned in marketing and sales and was   awarded salesman of the year for the United States.

Marriage and Family Therapist/Private Practice - After receiving his degree from USC, Lee opened a practice in Beverly Hills and counseled individuals and couples.

Hypnotherapist/Private Practice - Lee obtained a licensed from the state of California and began using hypnotherapy in his practice.  This led to him creating and producing a series of “Guided Relaxation” audio tapes which he marketed on subjects such as losing weight, relieving stress and stopping smoking, etc.  

Government Consultant - Lee occasionally consulted for various government entities.  One such assignment resulted in the  Los Angeles City Council starting a seismic vulnerability evaluation program for all structures in the city.

The Present
TrueFortune Cookies is now Lee’s passion and focus.  Noting that his wife’s opinion on his new endeavor was something to the effect of why was he doing it and couldn’t he find something useful to do, he offered this assessment:
“As long as I can remember my entire adult life has been productive.  I have designed innumerable rather complicated machines and patented many of them.  I have been responsible and relatively inoffensive (with a few lapses).  The TrueFortune Cookie is my very first venture with no purpose, no redeeming value and no prospect of remuneration.  I’m old enough to have given up saving for my old age, old enough to have more sense but not old enough to stop caring - so let’s have some fun!
The FutureTo be determined…but if Lee’s past history is any barometer, it won’t be dull and it will be meaningful!

Student Veterans Association - Puerto Rico - History is made!

It was a great day in Hato Rey, Puerto Rico for the military veteran community.  For the first time ever we witnessed an Installation Ceremony for a student veteran association on the island.  There were many community partners in attendance, friends, and veterans alike, came to support the PUPR Chapter in leading the charge for veteran students. 

This association will provide a place for veterans to communicate about classes, and build a team of people as a support network.  This will help them ensure success during their time as a student.  Groups like this are important because they represent veterans in the civilian community in a positive light.  They do this by giving veterans a chance to communicate with civilians and build long-lasting relationships.  We encourage all schools in Puerto Rico to follow the lead and organize a student veterans association on their campuses too.

As the Chapter Captain of Team Red, White and Blue, Puerto Rico Chapter, I am proud to be a part of this historic moment.  More importantly, as a veteran, I am proud to be able to pass along my knowledge and experience to help my fellow veterans make this idea a reality.  When I was attending The Los Angeles Film School in Hollywood, CA I was the chapter President for the Student Veterans of America (SVA) and that former experience has proven to be very useful in our current endeavours.  All veterans and the civilians that support us, must take care of our own community.  If you have a skill or talent that can help someone in our community please feel free to offer your services.  Let’s BUILD!

Very Respectfully,
