"Violence seems to be everywhere for American young people. From grade school bullies to hallway fights to tragic school shootings, teens observe or experience violence on a regular basis.  And that's just in school-actually one of the safest places for youth! Violence in the community, in homes and in the media invades their lives almost every day". </b></div> </tD> <tD VALIGN=TOP><NOBR><div> <B><IMG SRC="384916d0.jpg" border=0 width="145" height="109" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></b></div> </NOBR></tD> </tR> </TABLE></b></div> <div> <B> <TABLE BORDER="0" CELLPADDING="2" CELLSPACING="1" WIDTH="522" BORDERCOLORLIGHT="#C0C0C0" BORDERCOLORDARK="#808080" FRAME="BOX" RULES="ALL" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0" > <tR> <tD VALIGN=TOP HEIGHT= 156 ><NOBR><div> <B><IMG SRC="3a096960.jpg" border=0 width="150" height="150" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></b></div> </NOBR></tD> <tD VALIGN=TOP WIDTH="364"><div> <B>Miss Neet is a life long Kansas resident.
