# Kenya News Agency

The Kenya News Agency (KNA) is a government-run national news agency created in 1963. Its headquarter is in Nairobi and it is run by the Department of Information, Ministry of Information Communication and Technology. News reports are created by KNA reporters in 72 county and sub-county offices and disseminated from the National Editorial Desk (Press Office) in Nairobi to subscribers made up of news media companies in Kenya and around the world. Their services also include Electronic/TV News Unit, Mobile Cinema and Photographic Services.

## Pre-Independence

The work of the Kenya News Agency as a national news gathering operation began decades earlier with the Kenya Information Service (KIS) formed in 1939 to disseminate information on World War II. In 1945, after the war, the service changed its name to the African Information Service (AIS) and it served as an information unit mainly for the white settlers of the colonial British government.
Between 1953 and 1954 the African Information Services became the Department of Information with the appointment of the first Director of Information and the first press officers. The new Department consisted of several sections – Administrative, African, Press, Films and Photographs, Provincial Organizations and Information and Reference. It was administered from the Office of the Chief Secretary, at the time Richard Turnbull. The Department of Information served mainly as a propaganda machine especially during the state of emergency between 1954 - 1960.

## After Independence

In 1962 in the lead up to independence, the Department was moved to the Ministry of State for Constitutional Affairs and Administration under then Hon. Mr. Ronald G. Ngala. On December 5, 1963, the Kenya News Agency was created. On December 12, 1963 Kenya attained self-rule and the Office of the Prime Minister was established with Hon. Mzee Jomo Kenyatta as the first Prime Minister of Kenya. Kenyatta convened his cabinet with the Hon. R. Achieng Oneko as the first Minister for Information, Broadcasting and Tourism. The Ministry's functions then included Information Service (including Publications & Photographic Services) and the then newly created Kenya News Agency and Press Office.
As a state-owned agency the Kenya News Agency was expected to project a positive image of Kenya and promote the work of the Government. With a national network, the Agency was initially the primary source of news report from outside the capital Nairobi, but as the road networks expanded and internet infrastructure improved, access to the rural areas became easier and more affordable for private sector news organisation to send their own reporters to cover news outside Nairobi.
In 2016 Kenya News Agency made its historic image collection (more than 50,000 images) available online through a public portal Urithi. Urithi also includes audio and video content sourced from the Kenya Broadcasting Corporation.

## Publications

The Kenya News Agency has in the past produced the following publications:
* Habari [1921 Monthly]
* Habari za Vita (News of the War) [Weekly]
* Baraza [1939]
* Pamoja [1939]
* Kenya Today

# Coulsdon Cricket Club

Coulsdon Cricket Club was an English cricket club based at Coulsdon, Surrey. The club is believed to have been formed in the early 1760s and it had for a time a great rivalry with Chertsey Cricket Club.
Coulsdon is first recorded as a cricket team in May 1769 when a combined Coulsdon and Caterham team played All-England at Smitham Bottom in nearby Croydon. The club's last known match in 1784 was against Chertsey at Laleham Burway and they lost that by 313 runs. In most of Coulsdon's matches, the result is unknown, but the team did defeat Sussex in 1775.
One of the club's most notable players was William Palmer.

# Garland Aerospace

Garland Aerospace Pty Ltd was an Australian aircraft manufacturer based in Camden, New South Wales and founded by Kenneth Sydney Garland. The company specialized in the design and manufacture of ultralight aircraft in the form of kits for amateur construction and ready-to-fly aircraft.
The company was founded in about 2013 and seems to have gone out of business in 2016.

## History

Kenneth Garland holds the rights to the Sadler Vampire SV-2 design and had also acquired many of the drawings, tooling and parts for the design through his company Aero.V.Australia. Aero.V.Australia was an aircraft maintenance and repair company, that seems to have been formed in 2006 and gone out of business in 2013. Garland Aerospace was formed to develop the 1980s vintage Sadler Vampire design into the Garland Vampire. Three versions were produced, the GA-1 for the US FAR 103 Ultralight Vehicles category, the GA-2 an updated version for the homebuilt market and the GA-3 with more power and a higher gross weight.
Garland Aerospace was also engaged in developing a whole range of new aircraft designs. These included the GA-5 Warlang, a UAV version of the Vampire; the GA-6 Torana, a two seat design based on the Goair Trainer; the GA-7 Winjeel, a two-seat aircraft with conventional landing gear; the GA-8 Woomera, a new Vampire-based design for the US ultralight category, to be powered by a Compact Radial Engines MZ202 60 hp (45 kW) two stroke engine and the GA-9 Starship, a new design based on the Vampire with a Rotax 914 turbocharged 115 hp (86 kW) powerplant and retractable landing gear. There is no evidence that any of these aircraft were ever taken beyond the concept stage.
The company also provided aircraft construction technique classes to prospective aircraft builders in subjects including sheet metal, woodworking, aircraft fabric covering, welding, fibreglass construction and aircraft painting and finishing. The company also sold aircraft parts and piston aircraft engines.

# Richard George Voge

Richard George Voge (4 May 1904 – 17 November 1948), born in Chicago, Illinois, was an officer in the United States Navy. He completed the course at Harrison Technical High School in Chicago in 1921, and entered the Naval Academy later that year, graduating on 4 June 1925 and receiving his ensign's commission.
His first assignment was three years in the armored cruiser Pittsburgh (CA-4). In early 1929, Voge returned to the United States from the Far East to attend the Naval Submarine School at Naval Submarine Base New London, Connecticut. After completing that course and qualifying for submarine duty, he spent the bulk of his remaining time at sea in submarines, including the following pre-World War II assignments:
* January 1931 through June 1932: S-29
* July 1932 to September 1933: war plans and intelligence training at the Great Lakes Naval Training Station.
* September 1933 through June 1935: Instructor in Marine Engineering at the Naval Academy.
* June 1935 until May 1937: Command of S-18
* May 1937 through August 1937: Command of S-33
* August 1937 through September 1939: Naval Ordnance Plant at Baldwin on Long Island
* September 1939 to late January 1940: A four-month tour of duty as commissioning executive officer of the destroyer Rowan (DD-405)
In mid-February 1940, Commander Voge returned to the Asiatic Fleet and assumed command of the submarine Sealion (SS-195), based at Cavite in the Philippines, and commanded that submarine until the opening day of American participation in World War II.
At the outbreak of hostilities on 8 December 1941 (West Longitude Time), Voge suffered the double ignominy of having his command caught in overhaul and, three days later, of losing her to enemy bombs while still at Cavite Navy Yard. Voge, however, quickly recovered from that blow, assumed command of Sailfish (SS-192) (formerly named Squalus) on 17 December, and led her on five successful war patrols during the first eight months of 1942. Until the Battles of Coral Sea and of Midway in May and June, respectively, only Pacific Fleet submarines like Sailfish were able to fight to impede the Japanese onslaught; and their war patrols provided the one bright spot for the Allied cause in the Pacific.
In August 1942, upon the completion of his fifth war patrol in Sailfish, Voge received orders to join the staff of Commander, Submarine Force, U.S. Pacific Fleet, as operations and combat intelligence officer. He retained that position, in which he was promoted to captain to date from 20 July 1943, until late in the war, when he was ordered to Washington, D.C., to serve in the Office of the Chief of Naval Operations.
On 1 November 1946, Capt. Voge was retired from the navy and advanced to the rank of rear admiral. A little over two years later, Rear Admiral Voge died at the United Hospital at Port Chester, New York.

# Richard West (MP for Haslemere)

Richard West (before 17 January 1636 – 27 February 1674) was an English landowner and politician who sat in the House of Commons from April 1660 until the election of March the next year.

## Personal life

He was the son of a namesake who in died 1642, a yeoman (landowner) of Haslemere, Surrey and his wife Alice Sturt.
He was baptised on 17 January 1636. Aged eighteen, he inherited at least one mill and many premises from his grandfather, a clothier, specifically a textiles manufacturer, who had been in frequent trouble with the court leet in Haslemere for illegal and extortionate milling. Haslemere had active mills on the River Wey, working various goods. The inheritance included productive premises in Haslemere and in the adjacent, Black Down-dominated northern part of Lurgashall, West Sussex – one of its main estates, Roundhurst where he tended to live.
West died at the age of 38, and was buried at the Anglican church of St Bartholomew, Haslemere under a Latin inscription.
West married Eleanor Westbrooke daughter of Caleb Westbrooke of Witley, Surrey on 29 September 1653. They had a son and three daughters. His widow died on 21 August 1699.

## Public life

In 1660, he was elected co-Member of Parliament for Haslemere for the Convention Parliament (namely with his brother-in-law, John Westbrooke). He was commissioner for assessment for Surrey from August 1660 to his death.

# Film music concert

A film music concert is an event in which all or part of a film's musical score (soundtrack) is performed live, often by a full orchestra and choir. Concerts may involve screening a film in its entirety, or a performance of several clips and may also include commentary or interviews with composers. The popularity of film music concerts has been increasing, as have the number of films available for a full orchestral performance plus screening

## Types of film music concert

* Concert-only performance - a concert program might include popular themes from different film soundtracks (from one or more composers), or a film's entire score
* Live to picture (also known as live to projection) - the film's entire musical score is performed alongside a screening of the film. For films with an original soundtrack the recorded music is suppressed and performed live, preserving the original dialog recording and any sound effects. The soundtrack is typically the same as the one originally used in the film but sometimes an alternative score is created for the event (65daysofstatic have performed their original score for the film Silent Running). Silent films may be accompanied by original source music, newly created music or music improvised by the musician(s).
* Film clips concert - a variant of live to picture concerts, where a selection of film clips are shown, accompanied by the music.
# Financial Instruments Reference Database System

The Financial Instruments Reference Database System (FIRDS) is published by the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) and lists meta-information to all financial instruments included in the scope of MiFID II. This reference data is necessary to find metadata on a given financial instrument, uniquely identified by a so-called International Securities Identification Number (ISIN).

## Regulation

The Article 4(1)(20) of Directive 2014/65/EU (MiFID II) considers "investment firms dealing on own account when executing client orders over the counter (OTC) on an organised, frequent, systematic and substantial basis" systematic internaliser and requires them to report their trades. From this data, ESMA computes on a best effort basis, the total volume and number of transactions executed within the EU.
