Global Entrepreneurship Week 2010 - Video

Hello, Everyone! Global Entrepreneurship Week (GEW), November 15 - 21, is an initiative to inspire young people to embrace innovation, imagination and creativity; to think big and turn their business ideas into reality.

During GEW, which is one week each November, millions of young people around the world join a growing number of entrepreneurial people to generate new ideas and to seek better ways of achieving things. Also, GEW is an opportunity to showcase and celebrate the outstanding work that takes place year-round / throughout the year.

People from over one-hundred countries, of six continents, join together to celebrate GEW and to inspire young people to be entrepreneurs.  Participating allows these potential entrepreneurs to acquire the knowledge, skills and networks needed to grow innovative, sustainable enterprises that positively impact their lives, their families and communities. ~ GEW

Don't Be a Predator's Victim: Alert the Kids!

Do You Care About the Well-being and Safety of Kids? Teach them Web Safety!

Hello, Everyone! After watching and listening to this video, I knew I wanted to share it with you and I'm so grateful that I can because it's embeddable. This video is from Dr. Mike Thomson, an accomplished, talented, and internationally-admired Speaker, Author, Therapist, Consultant, Coach, Educator, and University Professor. Also, he is President of two very successful companies, It’s All About Character and Thomson ETC., Inc. Dr. Mike, as he's known, is on a mission to help people realize their/our true potential as a parent, teacher, coach, employee, entrepreneur or business owner.

In this video he shares crucial-to-know information, that should be shared with every grandparent, parent, relative and everyone that cares about the safety of:

• their grand-children,
• children,
• pre-teen relatives
• and teen-aged relatives,
• as well as other people's pre-teens and teen-agers

Thanks to Dr. Thomson's details in this video, I now know more of the lingo that online-predators are using to lure kids into danger, destruction, sexual attacks / sexual violence / sexual degradation / child-trafficking / human-trafficking and possibly death.

Dr. Thomson is enlightening us with this information and I'm sharing it in order to spread the knowledge. Predators harm others (in all the deviant ways that they do), simply to satisfy their warped desires and this is evil, malicious and wrong; it's criminal! After you view this video share the information and, together, let's do all we can to prevent these predators from gaining access to any child, of any age, everywhere!
