A police officer (also known as a policeman or policewoman, and constable in some forces, particularly in the United Kingdom and other Commonwealth nations) is a warranted employee of a police force. In the United States, "officer" is the formal name of the lowest police rank; in many other countries "officer" is a generic term not specifying a particular rank, and the lowest rank is often "constable". Police officers are generally charged with the apprehension of criminals and the prevention and detection of crime, and the maintenance of public order. Police officers may be sworn to an oath, and have the power to arrest people and detain them for a limited time, along with other duties and powers.

Some police officers may also be trained in special duties, such as counter-terrorism, surveillance, child protection, VIP protection, and investigation techniques into major crime, including fraud, rape, murder and drug trafficking.

Responsibilities of a police officer are varied, and may differ greatly from within one political context to another. Typical duties relate to keeping the peace, law enforcement, protection of people and property, and the investigation of crimes. Officers are expected to respond to a variety of situations that may arise while they are on duty. Rules and guidelines dictate how an officer should behave within the community, and in many contexts restrictions are placed on what the uniformed officer wears. In some countries, rules and procedures dictate that a police officer is obliged to intervene in a criminal incident, even if they are off-duty. Police officers in nearly all countries retain their lawful powers, while off duty.

Guy Gerber (born in 1975 in Holon,near Tel Aviv) is an electronic DJ/producer and musician who specializes in making music with synthesizers and live instrumentation in the techno scene and beyond. Gerber regularly DJs across the globe at events in Detroit, Berlin, Ibiza and the UK.

At the age of 15, Gerber was a member of the Israeli Under-16 national football team but soon developed the passion for music and found himself drawn to English guitar acts like Joy Division and My Bloody Valentine. Consequently, his harmonic, shoe-gaze inspired sound was a style that saw Gerber record for various European electronic labels including ‘Stoppage Time’ for John Digweed’s Bedrock imprint.

Gerber’s first full length album ‘Late Bloomers’ was released on Sven Väth’s Cocoon imprint in June 2007 and featured two worldwide club hits in ‘Belly Dancing’ and ‘Sea Of Sand’ which he recorded with his Israeli production friend Shlomi Aber. In addition to his productions, Guy also found time to remix New Order and Dominik Eulberg as well as setting up his own label Supplement Facts. More recently, he’s remixed ‘The L Word’ by Deniz Kurtel and ‘Hungry For The Power’ by Azari & III.
