More About The Hollywood Christmas Parade:
2024 marks the 92nd Anniversary of the Hollywood Christmas Parade, 
an American tradition.  The live parade is produced by Associated Television International and presented in association with The City of Los Angeles on the streets of Hollywood, CA.  This year’s celebration will be held on Sunday, December 1, 2024 from 6:00 – 8:00 p.m.

Since 1928 the live Hollywood Christmas Parade has been a loved and cherished annual holiday tradition enjoyed by Angelenos, as well as by millions watching the televised airings of the parade nationally on The CW Network and internationally on Armed Forces Network around the world.  The only exceptions were during World War II from 1942 to 1944 when the parade wasn’t presented, and in 2020, when a highlights telecast of parades over the last 10 years was presented, due to the COVID 19 global pandemic.  The parade was then presented live again in 2021, 2022 and 2023, and returns this year to celebrate its 92nd Anniversary live in the streets of Hollywood, CA!
 
Grand Marshals who have appeared in The Hollywood Christmas Parade during the last 91 years include:  Jeanette Loft, Joe E. Brown, Gene Autry, Roy Rogers, Bob Hope, Art Linklater, Lawrence Welk, Charlton Heston, Dale Evans and Roy Rogers, Danny Thomas, Mary Pickford, Dick Van Dyke, Robert Vaughn, Pat Boone, Fred McMurray, Buddy Ebsen, Walter Matthau, Ernest Borgnine, Johnny Mathis, General Robert E. Cushman, Jr., John Wayne, General Omar Bradley, James Stewart, Robert Wagner and Natalie Wood, Ron Howard, George Peppard, Michael Landon, William Shatner, Mickey and Minnie Mouse, Tony Danza, Sammy Davis, Jr., Arnold Schwarzenegger, Tom Arnold and Roseanne Barr, Bob and Dolores Hope, Louis Gossett, Jr., David Hasselhoff, Robert Urich, Beau Bridges, Dennis Hopper and Frankie Muñiz, Peter Fonda, Mickey Rooney, Johnny Grant, Magic Johnson, Antonio Villaraigosa, George López, Bob Barker, Joy and Regis Philbin, Susan Lucci, Larry King, Marie Osmond, Joe Mantegna, Buzz Aldrin, Stevie Wonder, Penn & Teller, Olivia Newton-John, Dr. Mehmet C. Oz, Nancy O’Dell, Mario Lopez, Sheryl Underwood, Danny Trejo and Colonel Paris D. Davis.
 
The Hollywood Christmas Parade was originally called the Santa Claus Lane Parade.  When the American performer Gene Autry, who was known as The Singing Cowboy, was riding on his horse down Hollywood Boulevard in the 1946 Santa Claus Lane Parade, he heard young parade spectators in the crowd exclaim, “Here comes Santa Claus!”  This incident became the inspiration for Autry to compose the traditional perennial Christmas holiday song, “Here Comes Santa Claus (Right Down Santa Claus Lane),” which he co-wrote with Oakley Haldeman in 1949. Autry first recorded the song in 1947.  The song was released as a single by Columbia Records, and became a #5 country and #9 pop hit at the time.  Gene Autry is the only celebrity to have five stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, one in each of the five categories, Motion Pictures, Radio, Recording, Television and Live Theater.  Today the intersection of Hollywood Boulevard at Highland Avenue, part of the Hollywood Christmas Parade route, is named Gene Autry Square.

The live parade features 5,000 participants, and will be taped for multiple nationwide network television broadcasts to be aired during the holiday season.  The parade will travel along a 3.2 mile U-shaped route starting at Orange Street and Hollywood Boulevard traveling east on Hollywood Boulevard to Vine Street, turning south on Vine Street to Sunset Boulevard, and then turning west on Sunset Boulevard traveling back to Orange Street.
 
The Origin and Evolution of the Marine Toys for Tots Program 77 Years Ago:
Toys for Tots began in 1947 as the brainchild of Marine Corps Reserve Major
Bill Hendricks.
 Actually it was his wife, Diane Hendricks, who was the real inspiration.  She had a few handcrafted dolls and asked Bill to deliver them to an agency that supports children in need.

 
When Bill Hendricks reported back to his wife that he could not find such an organization, she instructed him to “start one!”  Major Hendricks and the Marines in his reserve unit in Los Angeles collected and distributed 5,000 toys in 1947.  Seeing such successful community engagement in 1947, the Commandant directed all Marine Reserve Sites to implement a Toys for Tots campaign, transforming it into a national community action program in 1948.
 
Bill Hendrick’s civilian job was Director of Public Relations at Warner Brothers Studios.  He had many celebrity friends who he asked to help support the newly created Marine Toys for Tots Program.  As a personal friend and as a favor to Bill Hendricks, Walt Disney designed the first Toys for Tots poster, which included a miniature three-car train that was subsequently adopted as the Toys for Tots logo.

The Marine Toys for Tots Foundation, an IRS recognized 501(c)(3) not-for-profit charity, was established in 1991 at the behest of the Marine Corps to help run and support the Marine Toys for Tots Program.  The Foundation raises funds, purchases toys, provides promotional and support materials, manages all funds raised and donated, solicits corporate support, educates the public, and handles day-to-day operations.  Presently, the Marine Toys for Tots Program distributes an average of 18 million toys to 7 million less fortunate children annually.  To learn more, please visit:  https://toysfortots.org

Donald Trump Found Guilty on All Counts in Hush Money Trial

In a landmark legal decision that has sent shockwaves through the political landscape, former President Donald Trump has been found guilty on all counts in the highly publicized hush money trial. On May 30, 2024, a Manhattan jury found Trump guilty on all 34 counts of falsifying business records, an unprecedented and historic verdict that makes him the first former president in U.S. history to be convicted of a felony. The case was heard at the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York. The jury reached their decision on the second day of deliberations, reflecting the strength and clarity of the evidence presented against Trump. The sentencing for these charges is set to take place on July 11, 2024, with the outcome closely watched as it marks a crucial step in the legal process following the conviction.

**Background of the Case**

The charges against Trump originated from payments made during the 2016 presidential campaign to adult film actress Stormy Daniels and former Playboy model Karen McDougal. Prosecutors accused Trump of participating in an illegal conspiracy to undermine the integrity of the 2016 presidential election and of being involved in an unlawful plan to suppress negative information. This included concealing a hush money payment to Daniels. The funds used for these payments were allegedly funneled through Trump’s then-lawyer, Michael Cohen, and were not reported as campaign expenses, thus violating federal election laws.

Cohen, who has already served time for his role in the scheme, testified against Trump, providing detailed accounts of the transactions and the former president’s involvement. His testimony was bolstered by a trove of emails, recordings, and financial records that painted a damning picture of a coordinated effort to suppress negative publicity.

**The Trial**

The trial, held at the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York, was marked by high drama and intense media scrutiny. Prosecutors presented a compelling case that depicted Trump as the orchestrator of a conspiracy to subvert campaign finance laws. They argued that the payments were part of a “catch and kill” operation conducted with the help of the National Enquirer’s parent company, American Media Inc. (AMI), which bought exclusive rights to the stories with no intention of publishing them.

Trump’s defense team, meanwhile, attempted to frame the payments as personal expenses unrelated to the campaign. They claimed that Trump was trying to protect his family from embarrassment and that there was no intent to deceive the electorate. However, the jury was not swayed by these arguments.

**The Verdict**

After several weeks of testimony and deliberation, the jury returned a guilty verdict on all counts on their second day of deliberations. These included charges of conspiracy, falsifying business records, and violating campaign finance laws. The decision was unanimous, reflecting the strength of the prosecution’s case and the persuasiveness of the evidence presented.

In delivering the verdict, the foreperson of the jury stated, “The evidence clearly showed that Mr. Trump engaged in a deliberate and illegal effort to influence the 2016 election. The integrity of our electoral process is paramount, and no one, not even a former president, is above the law.”

**Implications and Reactions**

The guilty verdict against Donald Trump marks an unprecedented moment in American history. Never before has a former president been convicted of criminal charges. The political ramifications are vast and multifaceted. Trump’s supporters, who have consistently viewed the legal challenges against him as politically motivated, are likely to see this verdict as further proof of a biased justice system. On the other hand, his detractors view the decision as a long-overdue accountability for actions they believe undermined democratic norms.

Legal experts are now speculating about the potential consequences for Trump. Sentencing will take place on July 11, 2024, with the former president facing significant fines and possibly even imprisonment. Judge Juan Merchan, who set the sentencing hearing, will determine Trump’s sentence, which could include prison time or probation. Despite the felony conviction, Trump, who is the 2024 presumptive GOP nominee, can still run for office.

Reacting to the verdict, Trump called the jury’s decision a “disgrace” and asserted that the “real verdict” will come during the presidential election on November 5. President Joe Biden responded on social media, stating that his 2024 rival can only be defeated at the ballot box.

The label of “convicted felon” now accompanies Trump, a designation that will reverberate across the electorate in the months leading up to Election Day in November.

**Conclusion**

The conviction of Donald Trump on all counts in the hush money trial underscores the enduring principle that no individual, regardless of their status or power, is above the law. As the nation grapples with the implications of this verdict, it serves as a poignant reminder of the importance of legal accountability and the protection of democratic integrity. The coming weeks and months will undoubtedly see further developments as the legal and political fallout from this historic trial continues to unfold. The sentencing on July 11, 2024, will be a pivotal moment, determining the immediate future for the former president and potentially setting precedents for how similar cases are handled in the future.

Unmasking Western Dental: Viral TikTok Videos Shed Light on Persistent Issues Despite Past Settlement

In recent days, TikTok has become a platform for airing grievances against Western Dental, as users share their disappointing experiences with the dental provider. The viral videos, which have garnered widespread attention, underscore a troubling pattern of subpar service and unprofessional practices that have left patients feeling frustrated and underserved.

The discontent expressed by viewers comes as no surprise, especially in light of Western Dental’s troubled history. In 1997, the company agreed to settle a lawsuit for a staggering $1.7 million, following allegations of substandard care and unethical practices. Under the terms of the settlement, Western Dental committed to implementing more than 20 specific actions aimed at improving oversight and management of its dental services and clinics.

However, despite these assurances and the appointment of an independent monitor, dentist Maxwell Davis, to evaluate Western’s compliance with the state plan, it appears that little progress has been made. Instead, patients continue to report instances of poor treatment, unnecessary procedures, and a general lack of professionalism.

The viral TikTok videos serve as a stark reminder of the ongoing issues plaguing Western Dental and the company’s failure to uphold its obligations to its customers. In one video titled “Avoid Western Dental in North Hollywood! Leaves Patients Frustrated,” (https://www.tiktok.com/@diversitynewsmagazine/photo/7368290375313771818) viewers share their firsthand accounts of disappointment and dissatisfaction with the care they received. Similarly, in another video titled “Warning: Avoid Western Dental – A Money-Hungry and Disorganized Company,” (https://www.tiktok.com/@diversitynewsmagazine/photo/7367863998777216299) users express their frustration with the company’s practices and call for accountability.

These videos, posted on the Diversity News Magazine TikTok account (https://www.tiktok.com/@diversitynewsmagazine), are sparking conversations and urging viewers to continue speaking up. By watching, sharing, commenting, liking the videos, and following the account, individuals can help send a powerful message to Western Dental about the harm they have inflicted on thousands of customers.

As the videos continue to gain traction and spark conversations online, it is imperative that Western Dental takes heed of the concerns raised by its customers. Meaningful action must be taken to address the systemic issues within the company and ensure that patients receive the quality care and professionalism they deserve.

In the meantime, viewers are encouraged to watch and share these viral TikTok videos to raise awareness of Western Dental’s shortcomings and hold the company accountable for its actions. Together, we can demand better standards and advocate for positive change within the dental industry.

99 Cents Only Stores Announces Wind-Down of Business Operations

CITY OF COMMERCE, Calif.April 4, 202499 Cents Only Stores LLC (“99 Cents,” “99 Cents Only Stores” or the “Company”) today announced plans to commence an orderly wind-down of its business operations.

The Company has entered into an agreement with Hilco Global to, among other things, liquidate all merchandise owned by the Company and dispose of certain fixtures, furnishings, and equipment at the Company’s stores.

Sales under this agreement are expected to begin April 5, 2024 and will be carried out at all 371 of the Company’s store locations.

Hilco Real Estate (HRE) is managing the sale of the Company’s real estate assets, both owned and leased, in ArizonaCaliforniaNevada, and Texas. To help facilitate the wind-down, the Company has appointed Chris Wells, Managing Director at Alvarez & Marsal, as Chief Restructuring Officer. Mike Simoncic, Interim Chief Executive Officer of 99 Cents Only Stores and Managing Director at Alvarez & Marsal, will step down.

“This was an extremely difficult decision and is not the outcome we expected or hoped to achieve,” said Simoncic. “Unfortunately, the last several years have presented significant and lasting challenges in the retail environment, including the unprecedented impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, shifting consumer demand, rising levels of shrink, persistent inflationary pressures and other macroeconomic headwinds, all of which have greatly hindered the Company’s ability to operate. We deeply appreciate the dedicated employees, customers, partners, and communities who have collectively supported 99 Cents Only Stores for decades.”

99 Cents Only Stores, together with its financial and legal advisors, engaged in an extensive analysis of all available and credible alternatives to identify a solution that would allow the business to continue. Following months of actively pursuing these alternatives, the company ultimately determined that an orderly wind-down was necessary and the best way to maximize the value of 99 Cents Only Stores’ assets.

Editor’s Note: It’s disheartening to read about the closure of 99 Cents Only Stores, which have been around for over four decades. The surge in prices for goods and services, exacerbated by the challenges of COVID-19, has indeed been concerning. High demand often drives prices up, prompting the need to explore strategies for maintaining affordability. The drastic increase in rent prices, exemplified by the rise from $800 to over $1800 for a one-bedroom apartment since 2016, reflects a concerning trend. It’s crucial for those with wealth to prioritize affordability and resist greed. Nevertheless, we extend our best wishes to 99 Cents Only Stores as they navigate this challenging period.
