New Anti-Bully Campaingn - My DEAR bully

Hi guys,
one of our new ventures is finally ready to launch!  A very popular subject is bullying and bullies.  We love all the amazing projects and events we found supporting this subject.  However, they did lack one thing... YOU.    most speak on your behalf and try to help.  That alone is fantastic!!  But we feel: YOU have a voice, it needs to be heard.  There is no better way to confront a bully but to show them how you really feel.  Also, through our project you get to relief yourself a bit of your frustration about your bully.  We created a site www.mydearbully.blogspot.com which has become your forum!  Here YOU speak, you matter!!  You get to post your message to your bully,,, no names.  We create material with your messages which we will take to schools and funktions to educate people about bullying and open communication.
So far we have found great supporters and will post additional material soon.  You can comment on the site or tweet us @mydearbully .  We are trying to get #mydearbully trending as well.... so please help.
Thank you so very much for all your support.

'Boyfriend' - Justin Bieber Covers

The minute Justin Bieber's Hit Single 'Boyfriend' hit the air-waves people flooded YouTube with videos and covers of their version of his song.  Surprised by how many actually popped up, we weremore surprised how many were truly good.  The first day the first ten version were amazing.  Although, now, YouTube is swamped by 'Boyfriend' versions, many arent as good  or just spoofs and jokes.
However, in true SEK Magazine fashion we took notice that first day and can proudly bring you our selection.  All but one.... we saw a version by a young blind teen who was singing and playing the piano which we cannot recover.  If you know that video - let us know.  We would love to post it!!!!  E-mail us at sek4u@writeme.com please. :)
We do have a list of young artist who put in the effort to be heard that first day.  So, without further delay... here they are:


how did you like her version?  we quite like it :)



That was very amazing we though xD



That was quite fab !!!



Wow ... very talented people out there... makes yo wonder: how many of them will be noticed and signed tomorrow?



This was one of the very very first videos that popped up.  And we would like to add that we really truly enjoyed this version.  She has sort of an Adele vibe wit her own spin.
Also, we would like to say: we totally adore her accent!

Did You Know?

Zipper * 1893

Imagine having to button everything from your shoes to your pants.  Things got a lot easier in 1893 when Chicago engineer Whitcomb Judson invented the Zipper.  If you preferred Velcro, you had to wait until 1955!

Hi there ! :)

Working on the March issue now... We are discovering many new talents.  You guys are an amazing and creative bunch!  Lovely...
We wrote a great piece about Valentine's Day and it got deleted twice.  So, we gave up on that.  haha However, we will tell you that we had a blast and hope you did as well.  At school we had a dance and we will write a small bit about it and post a vid later.  It was great that on the day of the dance all clicks set aside their differences and were just there - at the dance - getting along - dancing.  Gotta say:  ppl came stylin'.  lol  Very nice dresses and some fab shoes!!!! yup yup.  Tho we all were asked by boys that totally did not matter  in the end.  And that made it awesome.  Who says you have to have a date date.  Some brought friends, sisters, brothers, cousins and yes.... boyfriends.  It was quite refreshing the way things went.  No drama for one entire dance party.  If every day could be this peaceful and fun, school would be fantastically perfect. 
In other news, sadly the very talented Whitney Houston passed away.  Somehow, my mom has a connection to her relatives and so I grew up listening to a lot of her songs.  My all time fav is: I wanna dance with somebody.  She looks fab and so amazingly happy in that video.  Though the vid is totally outdated and screams of neon colors and does not have the super  vid effects... it is just happy and fun!!!! luv luv luv it!  So sad she passed on so early in life.  Would love to meet her daughter one day.  She looks amazing.  All the reports about their fam struggles are not really necessary at this time.  Wish the press would just cool their heels for a sec.  Imagine, you are in school right not and you get word your mom or dad just passed.  So sad.  Our warm regards go to all fam members inc. Bobby Brown, Bobby Kristina's Dad.  The entire world feels the loss of another talented person... too soon.
Unfortunately, this is the second untimely death of an amazingly creative soul this month, reminder: Black History Month! 
That said, we thought to bring you some interesting facts about African American people who were very important in history as well.
Benjamin Banneker: First clock to made in America ... this gentleman and his genius reached far beyond a clock however.  He truly set a mile stone as far as African Americans in History go.
Otis Boykin: is invention led to the pacemaker - which saves so very many lives! to this day.  Had he not invented his device we would not have this life-saving device today.
Marie Van Brittan Brown: invented together with Albert Brown a closed-circuit television security system.  Do you feel safe today?  Her invention is the groundwork for our modern security systems in our homes!
Dr. Particia Bath: the 'Right to Sight' is  her motto.  Thanks to this Dr. we have the surgery system available which many people use to get their sight back.
George Washington Carver: discovered the many uses for peanuts, such as: cooking oil, axle grease and Printer's ink.  He was also the very first African American to be allowed to attend Iowa-State.
George Crum: Inventor of Potato Chips... do we need  to say more, really?
Dr. Charles Drew: Inventor of Blood Banks!  Imagine the wold without it....
Kenneth J. Dunkley: Inventor of 3-D glasses and Holograms!  our every fun comes was brought to us thanks to this amazing person.
Dr. Phillip Emeagwali: Inventor of the worlds fastest computer.
Dr. Shirley Jackson: Inventor of Telecommunications Inventions, such as portable fax, touch tone telephone, solar cell and fiber optic cables!!! Caller ID and call waiting......
Lonnie G Johnson: Inventor of the Super Soaker!
Frederick McKinley Jones: Refrigerator Inventions, inc. for long haul trucks and railroad cars as well as roof top cooling systems....does that ring  a bell?  His invention came about after a truck driver lost an entire load of chicken because he could not make it to his destination before all the ice melted.
There are so many more inventors, musicians and amazing people such as Rosa Parks and Martin Luther King that contribute to our comfy daily life.  And although the greatness reaches far beyond African-American people, this month consider the awesomeness of black people in history.  So many things we take for granted every day. Consider the people who made them possible.  BTW: did you notice that many of the above listed people are doctors? Well, hold the Dr. title or became a professor.  Education is key, for all of us.  It seems cliche because we hear it all the time, and here it is again.  It starts with curiosity and interest develops into a drive and excels in education in one way or another.  We surely do not like school all the time, but we all have dreams for our future.  Guys, it does look like education is a huge part of that. :)
That said, next time you get bullied or are bullying a person... consider who they might become in life.. or might not as a  result of such action.  Time seems endless now but one day it may be short, too fast.  Positivity unfolds more potential!!!!  Good luck to all of us.....
