Mediterranean with Cyprus being the leading candidate.
"We anticipate making a final decision on the location by the
end of this month and begin construction in February," D'Alberto
said. "The new teleport facility should take approximately three
months to complete and we anticipate it will increase revenue of
that division to approximately $10 million during the current
fiscal year."

services including; VSAT, equipment and server hosting, VoIP,
satellite monitoring as well as a host of other telecommunications

Dogs. The first group of 23 were delivered in December with the
balance to be delivered in 2011. The dogs will be utilized by the
Iraqi Police Force. That contract is valued at $1.8 million.
