Identity
Theft
A
new challenge for companies and their employees. It's been said
the latest criminals are "Stealing Your Soul", but with the
several new laws that have been signed recently, the new heading
could read "Erasing Your Company's Profits."
According to the Federal Trade Commission - One out of every
eight Americans has already been a victim of Identity Theft
costing citizens and
companies more than an estimated 3.3 Billion Dollars.
Please view the Deter - Detect - Defend movie provided by the
FTC:
A
presentation of the Affirmative Defense Response System will be
given by Dr. Charles Kemble - ID Theft Risk Management
Specialist. This presentation is to help business owners cope
with the new liabilities related to the growing problems of
Identity Theft at work sites, data breaches, potential federal
fines associated with data breaches and multi-million dollar
class action law suits.
This program will educate you about how the new HIPAA and FACTA
laws affect your company and arm you with information that can
protect your companies profits and your employees.

MADAM
MAYOR
How I Learned to Love Government
and Hate Politics
in Ten Intriguing Years
by Marcy Meffert
After 20 years as a military wife,
mother of five, and community volunteer, Marcy Meffert
retired from full-time homemaking in 1974 to begin a new
career – first as a free-lance writer and editor, then
in 1994 in what she calls the ultimate volunteer job of
serving on the Leon Valley, Texas, City Council. She
served four years as a councilmember and six as mayor.
On behalf of her city she was
active on regional and state levels in leadership
positions, including chairman of the Greater Bexar
County Council of Cities, chairman of the Alamo Area
Council of Governments, and president of the Texas
Municipal League Region 7. In 2004, she retired from
public service to write this book, which she hopes will
encourage more people to get seriously involved in
government as candidates, election workers, and/or at
the very least, as voters. She writes with an inimitable
sense of humor and shows the human side of politics at
the grassroots level.
