OT - JUST YELL FIRE! - keeping teenage girls safe

[Guest guest]

Hi everyone,

 

I've finally been able to play catchup over the weekend after being

stuck in maximum overdrive in Dilbertland for the last few months

(amazing how much you can miss in just a couple of months off-line).

I'm just glad I got back on-line when I did as I am really looking

forward to going to Austin in August (who can pass up the chance to

meet Butch in the flesh?).

 

While I was on my " vacation " from the web, I came across an incredible

dvd program that I would like to share with anyone who has a teenage

daughter/granddaughter or just teenage friends in general. It's a

video presentation called " just yell fire " that was put together by two

teenage girls in Portland Oregon after watching news accounts of

Carlise Brusca in Florida and hearing other stories of attempted

abductions. It's a video of helpful hints for teenagers and simple yet

effective techniques to get out of a bad situation and for all you Lost

fans - Josh Holloway (Sawyer) and Evenageline Lilly (Kate) are in it as

well. I've been working with Park and Chad (the two martial artists in

the video) since they live in San Diego, learning the techniques (as

they work for anyone - not just teenage girls) as well as getting the

word out to anyone and everyone.

 

The best part is it's free to anyone who wants it - either by

requesting a dvd or downloading it off the website " justyellfire.com "

and people are encouraged to burn as many copies as they want. The

goal is it get it in as many teenage girls' hands as possible and as

Josh says in the video " save the world, one girl at a time. "

 

Please forward this information to any other lists as we really want to

get the word out to as many people as possible.

 

Thank you Chris and Kathleen and all the others for getting the ball

rolling on the SunConference. It gives me a good excuse to get some

time off and get out of the insanity even if it's just for a weekend -

plus it will be nice to see the other side of my home state.
