Security is a valued necessity in today's times. Growing terror threats, border disputes, global conflicts and the refugee crises have combined to provide reason enough to adopt stringent security measures such as automated passport control, facial recognition, and defense strategies that cover training and simulation, C4ISR, etc. Not only this, IT infrastructure, cloud computing, network security, and wireless technologies are all key growth areas that are evolving rapidly due to security issues. Concerns about digital threats will continue to drive the banking and finance industry to make cyber security investment.

Companies West Group Inc. (Frankfurt:A38 - News) (OTC.BB:COWS - News) -- During the past several years the company has contracted several different transfer agents as record keepers of shareholder transactions.
Online PR News – 15-March-2010 – – Also during this period several different series of stock certificates were issued to shareholders. This was mainly due to the fact that certain series were discontinued and had to be re-ordered or that one particular series happened to be a favoured print of a certain transfer agent.
First and foremost the company assures all shareholders that their stock certificates are valid regardless of the series of print used. Nevertheless this has caused a great deal of confusion with a large number of our shareholders. To properly address the issue the board of directors have resolved to issue New Stock Certificates to all shareholders on record. These certificates will replace all previous ones issued. They will bear the same date of issue as the original ones. Shareholders holding more than one certificate will be issued the same number of share certificates to replace the old ones.
The new uniform stock certificates will be of same style and will include updated officer information. Once issued the new stock certificate will immediately replace all old share certificates of Companies West Group. In fact all the old ones will be immediately cancelled. No action is required by the shareholder. The corporate ledger will reflect the replacement and re-issue of all stock certificates.
Shares already on deposit with a bank or broker will not be affected since they have been changed to electronic format. We would like to urge all shareholders to discard or destroy all old certificates of the company once new ones are received and you are satisfied that the amounts are identical and personal information is accurate.
The new certificates will be issued via registered mail.

When a teenager begins driving, many parents often have a number of concerns when it comes to car insurance. Unfortunately, the terms and polices for adding a teenage driver to an insurance policy vary widely between different states and insurance companies. Here are just some of the more common concerns.
Learner's Permit
When your child gets a learner's permit, you may not be required to immediately add them to your auto insurance policy. In many cases, your vehicle will still be covered under the existing terms of the policy. One of the reasons for this is that most states restrict individuals driving on a learner's permit to only driving when there is a licensed driver in the vehicle accompanying them.
With this type of stipulation, there is less assumed risk on the part of the insurance company. Make sure you check with your insurance provider to be certain this is the procedure for your policy.
Saving Money
When you're ready to add your teen driver to your policy, saving money is a concern. Particularly if your child isn't allowed to drive much, give an accurate account of their average anticipated mileage when completing your quote. Insurance rates are based on risk. The less miles you drive, the lower the risk.
In this instance, a child that is only allowed to travel 5 miles to school and back, five days a week would likely get a lower rate than a teen who drives 30 miles, seven days a week, due to a low-mileage discount. If your child makes good grades, you might be able to get a good student discount as well.
Teens With No Car
Some people are under the impression that you only need to add your teen driver to an auto insurance policy once they have their own vehicle. While most auto policies do extend coverage to a vehicle, regardless of who is behind the wheel, when it comes to licensed drivers in your home it's not always this simple.
Most states will require that all licensed (not permit) drivers have their own coverage or be included on another person's policy within the home. In cases of divorced households, if the child routinely has access to vehicles in both homes, both parents may have to add the child to the policy.
Insuring that you understand the terms of your policy regarding teen drivers can help give you confidence that your teen and your vehicle is protected and ensure you avoid any penalties.Share

House Judiciary Chairman Jerry Nadler said House Democrats will "likely" subpoena President Trump's former national security adviser John Bolton and continue with more investigations after today's historic impeachment vote.
"I think it's likely yes," he told CNN of issuing a Bolton subpoena.
Asked what they will look at, Nadler said, "We are talking about everything," referring to continuing all the probes that have been launched since last year.

There's so much to love about Adekunle Gold!
Real name: Adekunle Moruf Kosoko Stage name: Adekunle Gold Date of birth: January 28, 1987 State of Origin: Lagos Nationality: Nigerian Genre: Highlife, Afro Pop
Adekunle Gold stole his way into the hearts of music lovers when he gained widespread attention for the release of the 2015 hit single Sade. Since then, it has been an upward climb for one who has become one of the entertainment industry's most beloved sons.
The talented young man is a Nigerian singer, songwriter, and graphic designer born into the Kosoko royal family of Lagos State. He has a Higher National Diploma in Arts and Design from Lagos State Polytechnic.
Adekunle Gold is a nephew to veteran Nollywood actor Jide Kosoko and though brought up in a Muslim family, his father permitted him and his three sisters to practice other religions if they so desired.
He developed an interest in music while growing up, thanks to his listening to the music of King Sunny Ade and Ebenezer Obey.
Adekunle was a part of his church's young choir during his teens and went on to write his first song at the age of 15. He formed a music group with a friend while in school but went solo in 2014 after the group was disbanded.
His proficiency with Adobe's Photoshop software earned him the title "King of Photoshop" after he posted an edited image of him hugging popular singer Tiwa Savage on social media platforms.
Adekunle's first solo work was Let It Stop, a song about peace for the nation. Unfortunately, the track didn't get the needed recognition that the artists wanted and this was made worse by lack of funds and poor promotion.
On December 19, 2014, he released Sade, a cover of One Direction's Story of My Life. It got critical acclaim and was subsequently nominated for Best Alternative Song at The Headies 2015.
The recognition and acceptance of Sade made Adekunle go further with his first official single which he titled Orente. Released through Olamide's YBNL Nation (he signed a contract with them on March 5, 2015), it got him nominated in the Most Promising Act category at the 2015 City People Entertainment Awards.
July 18, 2016, saw the singer reveal the cover and tracklist of his debut studio album Gold. With 16 tracks, it features musical production from Pheelz, Masterkraft, B Banks, Sleemako, Oscar, and Seyikeyz.
Gold was released on July 25, 2016 (three days earlier than scheduled) and it peaked at number 7 on the Billboard World Album Chart for the week of 13 August 2016. It was also critically reviewed by contemporary music critics.
Adekunle departed from YBNL Nation following the expiration of his contract and he unveiled his band The 79th Element (a reference to the atomic number of the element gold) and was unveiled as the brand ambassador of Unity Bank on January 15, 2018.
He released his second solo album About 30 that same year (2018) and his most notable singles of 2019 include Before You Wake Up and Young Love.
The artist is married to fellow music dynamo Simi and announced via his Twitter handle on January 31, 2020, that he will soon drop his third solo album titled Afro Pop.

Biennale | Biennale Arte 2019 titled May You Live In Interesting Times
The 58th International Art Exhibition is curated by Ralph Rugoff and will be open to the public from 11 May to 24 Novembre 2019.
Ralph Rugoff, curator of the biennale Arte, has declared:
«May You Live in Interesting Times will no doubt include artworks that reflect upon precarious aspects of existence today, including different threats to key traditions, institutions and relationships of the "post-war order." But let us acknowledge at the outset that art does not exercise its forces in the domain of politics. Art cannot stem the rise of nationalist movements and authoritarian governments in different parts of the world, for instance, nor can it alleviate the tragic fate of displaced peoples across the globe (whose numbers now represent almost one percent of the world's entire population).»
«But in an indirect fashion, perhaps art can be a kind of guide for how to live and think in 'interesting times.' The 58th International Art Exhibition will not have a theme per se, but will highlight a general approach to making art and a view of art's social function as embracing both pleasure and critical thinking. The Exhibition will focus on the work of artists who challenge existing habits of thought and open up our readings of objects and images, gestures and situations. Art of this kind grows out of a practice of entertaining multiple perspectives: of holding in mind seemingly contradictory and incompatible notions, and juggling diverse ways of making sense of the world. Artists who think in this manner offer alternatives to the meaning of so-called facts by suggesting other ways of connecting and contextualising them. Animated by boundless curiosity and puncturing wit, their work encourages us to look askance at all unquestioned categories, concepts and subjectivities. It invites us to consider multiple alternatives and unfamiliar vantage points, and to discern the ways in which "order" has become the simultaneous presence of diverse orders.»
Four countries will be participating for the first time at the Biennale Arte: Algeria, Ghana, Madagascar, and Pakistan. The Dominican Republic and the Republic of Kazakhstan for the first time at the Biennale Arte with its own national pavilion.

I haven't used this yet - just converted the units so I do not have a report editor.
If you have templates they should work as with the VCL edition.
WPTools FMX is *very* much like the VCL edition, with API and events.

From the New York Times bestselling author of Once Upon a Grind comes an exciting new installment in the "highly satisfying"* Coffeehouse Mystery series.
After the White House asks coffeehouse manager and master roaster Clare Cosi to consult on the coffee service for a Rose Garden Wedding, she discovers a historic pot was used as a CIA "dead drop" decades before. Now long-simmering secrets boil over, scalding Clare and the people around her...
Clare's visit to the nation's capital is off to a graceful start. Her octogenarian employer lands her a housesitting job in a charming Georgetown mansion, and she's invited to work with a respected curator on the Smithsonian's culinary salute to coffee in America.
Unfortunately, Clare's new Village Blend DC is struggling to earn a profit, until its second floor Jazz Space attracts a high-profile fan—the college-age daughter of the U.S. President. Clare's stock rises as the First Lady befriends her, but she soon learns a stark lesson: Washington can be murder.
First a stylish State Department employee suspiciously collapses in her coffeehouse. Then the President's daughter goes missing. Is she a runaway bride or is something more sinister in play? After another deadly twist, Clare is on the run with her NYPD detective boyfriend. Branded an enemy of the state, she must piece together clues and uncover the truth before her life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness come to a bitter end.
Includes great American recipes!

Carpet Cleaning Professionals!! Highly Recommend.
Carpet & Rug Cleaning & Repairing review in Duncan
Super job!! We called Fabri-Klean to clean our imported wool area rugs. Some soiling (we have grand kids...) and needed some TLC. We were extremely worried to find a competent rug cleaner who understands proper cleaning so our 12x14 area rugs would not be damaged... We found this in Fabri-Klean. Scott was extremely knowledgeable, explained the process fully and delivered on his promises. I highly recommend Fabri-Klean Carpet & Upholstery Cleaning - they do great work and we're very happy with the results. Thank you Scott.

REED CITY — A 17-year-old LeRoy teen was arraigned Monday for his connection to a drunken-driving crash believed to be the cause of death of another teenager.
Creed Samuel Watson was arraigned in 77th District Court on charges of operating while intoxicated causing death, failure to stop at the scene of a crash causing death and lying to a police officer for his connection with an incident on Nov. 23 in Sherman Township. If convicted, Watson faces up to 15 years in prison and/or fines as high as $10,000 for the two felony offenses related to the death of Tustin 17-year-old Timothy Rizor.
The charges in question are only accusations. Watson is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty in a court of law. The prosecution has the burden of proving guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. A $10,000 cash or surety bond was issued by the court.
Osceola County Prosecutor Tony Badovinac said this tragic case made him realize why there is a law in place requiring a person who is involved with an accident/crash to report it.
"The reason is to make sure if anyone is hurt they get medical attention. This case is a prime example of that not happening,' he said. "The timely failure to report a crash can lead to danger to life and/or property damage.'
On Sunday, a press release issued by the Osceola County Sheriff's Office said deputies were dispatched to a one-vehicle crash on Mackinaw Trail near 160th Avenue in Sherman Township at 2:05 a.m. Saturday. Police said the person who reported the incident stated no one was around the vehicle.
Once on the scene, deputies found a tan 2004 Toyota Camry had gone off the road and overturned. Police said deputies also found Watson and his parents removing items from the vehicle.
Police said at 3:17 a.m. Saturday deputies and an ambulance were dispatched to a home on 20 Mile Road near 160th Avenue for a report of a teen having medical problems. That teen was Rizor. Lifesaving measures were attempted, but Rizor died before arriving at the hospital, according to police.
The ongoing investigation revealed the two incidents were connected and Watson was arrested and lodged at the Osceola County Jail on the above charges. Alcohol, speed, and not using seatbelts are believed to be factors, according to police.
In statements made Monday by Osceola County Sheriff Ed William via a press release, he said besides Watson and Rizor the other occupant in the vehicle was Brock Nelson, 17, of LeRoy. He said all three teens are members of the senior class at Pine River High School. The investigation is ongoing and additional details about the crash will be released as they become available.
Pine River Area School Superintendent Matt Lukshaitis said the district was notified about the crash on Saturday. Lukshaitis said the district's staff and students are saddened by this tragedy. He also said condolences and prayers are extended to the Rizor family.
"Timmy was an important member of our school community and senior class. Pine River Area Schools mourns the loss of his life,' Lukshaitis said in a press release.
On Monday, the district had its crisis team at the high school with the plan to proceed like a normal school day, according to Lukshaitis. He said the high school/middle school library was available for kids or staff to see counselors or other members of the district's team. The elementary school also was going to have people on hand including a counselor if students needed assistance, Lukshaitis said.
Lukshaitis said Monday afternoon under the circumstances the day went smoothly. For the most part, he said the students counseled and consoled each other and sought guidance from their teachers. There were, however, some students who utilized the services of the crisis team.
Even with the crisis team available, Lukshaitis said it seemed like there were students who were not in school Monday. He didn't have official student numbers so he couldn't say how many were not at school. He also said the student body was looking at doing something for the Rizor family, but nothing was decided.
"I do know the senior class president is planning on doing something special for the family. The students want to do something,' he said.

Friends of TBML 18 Friends Liaison Terry Johnston reported that since the Friends had no meeting in 19 May the only thing she had to report is that the Friends cookbooks have arrived. 20 4 Library Administrator's Report • Library Advisory Board 1 Regular Meeting Thursday,May 28,2009 1 Ms. Teaze distributed information about a new division of the American Library 2 Association,ALTAFF This is the Association of Library Trustees,Advocates,Friends and 3 Foundations which was formed through the merger of Friends of Libraries USA into the 4 Trustee division. She also stated that the annual report of the New Mexico State Library is 5 available in hard copy from Kathleen or online at www nnatatelibrary org. 6 a. Strategic Plan 7 Ms. Teaze introduced Larry Broxton,President of Dauntless Consulting,as the consultant 8 who has been awarded the contract for helping to develop the library's 2010-2015 Strategic 9 Plan. Mr. Broxton introduced himself. He hopes that this will be a fun experience which 10 will be a fairly simple process of guiding the Board through the process. He suggested that 11 if the Board members have a wish list of what should happen they should bring them 12 forward. Over the next 4 months we will go in increments to analyze and evaluate the 13 current plan and build a plan for the future. Ford Ballard asked if there was a sense of how 14 many meetings to plan on. Mr.Broxton stated that first the Board will be given a tour of 15 the building. It's difficult to determine how many meetings will be required but he would 16 rather the Board state what they think they need and then proceed. The tour and the 17 planning of how many meetings will be necessary can probably be done within an hour 18 Mr Branshaw asked if the consultant would be talking to any of the front-line staff during 19 this process to get input from them on where they see problems. Mr.Broxton stated that 20 this is a crucial piece and that Mr Broxton and Ms. Teaze would develop a survey 21 document for employees which will also contain blank space for suggestions. Mr.Broxton 22 stated that he will be a facilitator Ms. Teaze suggested that perhaps the Strategic Planning • 23 Committee would include one or two staff members and perhaps a representative from the Library Advisory Board 2 Regular Meeting Thursday,May 28,2009 1 Friends. Mr Ballard asked if Ms. Teaze could give a sense of what the future of media 2 materials will be. Mr Ballard asked that Ms. Grumet address the relationship of the Library 3 to the City's future planning as part of our strategic planning process. Ms. Grumet 4 responded by saying that the City is engaging now in a new strategic planning process. 5 Public Services Department appears in the current plan only minimally,but she is confident 6 that the library will be included in the upcoming plan. 7 Ms. Teaze discussed a recent meeting with the City Manager,Assistant City Manager, 8 Facilities Director and Budget Director to discuss the future of library services in the City of 9 Las Cruces. At that meeting the sense was that funding is the difficulty and that the library 10 will have to find innovative ways to find the money for expanded services. 11 Ms. Grumet asked Arlene Dohr to make an announcement. Mrs. Dohr announced that the 12 Friends of the Library fundraising cookbook has arrived from the publisher and is now 13 available for purchase in the Friends Bookstore for$20.00. It makes an excellent gift. 14 Mr Ballard asked the Board members to bring their calendars for strategic planning 15 scheduling. 16 5 Unfinished Business-Noma.Tracey asked if there had been anything new about the 17 Bookmobile. Ms. Teaze stated that she had submitted paperwork to allow the vehicle to 18 be auctioned Dona Ana County has not responded to any recent requests for their 19 desires regarding the bookmobile. She went on to say that the library has developed a 20 formula for invoicing the County for Books by Mail service which results in a cost of 21 $15 00 per item sent out through Books by Mail. The County has now been invoiced 22 for items sent for 3 quarters of FY09/10 We do not yet know if those bills have been • 23 paid. Ms. Teaze reiterated the need for branch libraries in other parts of the City. Library Advisory Board 3 Regular Meeting Thursday,May 28,2009 • 1 6 New Business—Ms. Rindge asked if any decisions had been made regarding the uses of 2 the current City Hall and the City Office Center Ms. Teaze said that as far as she 3 knows nothing has been decided. 4 Ms. Teaze asked if the Board would like to hear about the construction going on. She 5 stated that the contractors showed up ready to work and that summer programming had 6 been shifted to occur at other locations than the Dresp Room. Demolition has been 7 done on the Campo Terrace for building a new meeting room. The Kiva Room 8 renovation is nearly complete. The Dresp Room area is now the major issue. Originally 9 the plan was to change it to a room for Children's Programming. However,it was 10 determined that a better use would be as a Public Computing area in anticipation of a 11 second phase of construction winch would expand the actual Children's Room to 12 include a programming area. Mrs. Johnston asked if the Dmsp Room would entirely be 13 for computers or just part. Ms. Teaze stated that the larger side would be used for the 14 public access computers and the smaller side could be used for a training area. 15 However,this will be subject to change depending on the direction of technology and 16 whether the City develops a technology center Mr.Ballard asked if this might allow 17 the library to go back to the former opening time of 10.00 a.m. Ms. Teaze said she 18 thought that would be unlikely unless there are severe budget constraints. Ms. Grumet 19 agreed. Mr. Ballard stated that this can be addressed in the strategic planning process. 20 Ms. Rindge asked if there is any federal stimulus money that could benefit the Library 21 Ms. Grumet stated that projects need to be shovel-ready to qualify for funds and that the 22 broadband telecommunications money is the most likely to benefit the library and that • Library Advisory Board 4 Regular Meeting Thursday,May 28,2009 1 this will likely be handled at the state level. For libraries specifically there is no 2 construction money in the stimulus package. 3 7 Announcements—Mr Ballard asked if there were any announcements.

Grinspan chooses the one street that attracts him the most, the one with the most dramatic/cinematic story, "the one where its visitors are in perfect harmony with its lights and shadows". Check out Grinspan's Instagram for more of his work. Also if you like beautiful photographs of different cities we've written about other photographers as well, capturing Amsterdam as winter slowly approaches its borders, and atmospheric streets at night under fluorescent lights in cities of Hamburg and Toronto.

Music and spoken word alternate. Elke Heidenreich reads addition to its own texts by Erich Kästner, Ludwig Tieck, Marcel Proust, etc. The offered music is almost invariably written or arranged for the calmus Ensemble: Harald Banter has jazz ballads composed to poems by Charles Baudelaire and the gallows songs set to music by Christian Morgenstern. Sebastian Krause, the Old at calmus has arranged some well-known songs by Georg Kreisler for the ensemble. The result is a wonderful production, not only for balmy summer nights - to dream and enjoy, think and be listened again and again.
