  Every semester of every year you can read hundreds of reports where a woman was physically assaulted on campus.  While colleges and universities have tried to step up security patrols, especially at night, reports of attacks and attempted rape continue to persist.  While there are precautions a woman can take to lessen the chances of becoming a victim, one of the best weapons she can have at her disposal when confronted in a threatening situation is a shot of pepper spray. A less than $20, the MACE Keyguard Pepper Spray is compact, convenient, and has a key ring that easily attaches to your house, dorm room, car, and other keys you carry.  Be alert, be cautious, and be prepared. http://www.thecoverteye.com/preview/m7/80365--mace-key-guard-pepper-spray.html     http://www.athensohiotoday.com/news/woman-uses-pepper-spray-to-allegedly-fight-off-attacker/article_00fc4e80-8d84-55d7-a989-90264ed2f3be.html    

  I think the first thing that comes to mind when people hear the term "Security Alarm Systems" is an all-encompassing setup from ADT or Brinks Security.  These companies offer fine security service, to be sure, especially if you're wiring for a large corporate or business office.  But what if you can't afford the high cost, the installation charges, the monthly fees, and don't want to be tied down with lengthy service contracts?  One of our affordable DIY home security alarm systems may be your answer. Theft from home break-ins is on the rise and it is highly imperative that you take the steps to ensure your home, property and family are protected. One of the easiest and most efficient means of safe-guarding your house is by adding a home security system. Generally there are two types of home security systems; wired and wireless. A hard-wired system is traditionally the type found in shops, office buildings and in some homes that are monitored by either a security staff or remotely by a security agency, such as ADT or Brinks. Wired systems provide good reliability, are continually connected, and are excellent is supporting a number of CCTV cameras going back to a single monitor. On the other side, they also require several feet of cable and wiring, and if you're looking to run it internally with your existing electrical system, it will add in installation time, cost, and more than likely the services of a certified electrician.  A wireless system, on the other hand, offers an excellent opportunity for the actual DIY'er to install their own alarm system, along with saving money and time. Installation is way more simple and easier for a wireless security system compared to a hard-wired system. Your first step with a wireless security system is deciding where the control panel will be placed. This will usually be in an easily accessible spot, like near the front door. Then establish where you want to install the sensors. Focus on high traffic areas such as hallways and landings, and make them your first priority. You'll also want to use PIR (passive infrared motion detector) sensors for this and all other areas. Subsequently, start looking at the main parts of your house that could be accessed externally. Always be sure to set up PIR motion detection sensors inside these areas also. Your exterior doors definitely will need to be safeguarded by way of door contact sensors. There are commonly two types of doorway sensors – delayed, as well as immediate. The delay sensor will enable anyone to go into the home and provide a set amount of time to key in the code to disable the alarm system. An instantaneous type sensor will send the actual system into alarm mode as soon as the threshold contacts are broken. So, what kind of wireless systems are out there on the market that you can install yourself, won't break the budget, and still provide the safety and security you need to protect your home and property? Let me suggest three systems right here.    The DIY Smart Home Kit Security System ($225.00) is a new and inexpensive way to protect you, your family, and your home.  It needs no wiring of any kind, and can easily be installed by anyone. Forget the high bills and frequent visits by the installation man, you've got all you need with this entire package.  If a window or door is broken into or disturbed once the system is set, an alarm will sound and the HomeSafe system will dial up to 5 telephone numbers that you program into it. Any kind of movement that the motion detector picks up will be detected and the alarm will sound off as well.  If you are planning to relocate, the HomeSafe system can go with you, making it a good long-term investment. A big positive feature about this unit is that it allows you to uninstall and reinstall it anywhere at your leisure. It will save you money in the long run and keep your home safe.  The system comes with one base unit with a/c adapter, one window/door sensor, one motion detector, and one remote control to arm and disarm the unit.  You can also add up to 14 additional wireless sensors to guard every room in the house.   Another good unit is the Voice Alert Home Protection System with Zone Covrage ($149.95).  If you are concerned about intruders, unexpected visitors, theft, mail tampering, or even dangerous areas for your children around the house, look no further.  This system notifies you of any intruder with your own voice.  Would you like to be alerted when....cars are coming up the driveway...children go inside inside your tool shed...intruders approach the front or backyard...someone enters your garage...visitors are walking to your front door...your parked boat or motorhome has been boarded...or small children are near the pool?  If so, the new Wireless Voice Alert Protection and Notification System is the answer you're looking for.  The  Voice Alert System-6 allows a maximum of six user recorded messages. Each message is specific to one zone. For instance, zone one could be for a driveway alarm -“Car coming up the driveway” while zone two could be for a sensor monitoring the back yard- “Alert! Child by the pool!” Perhaps a third sensor guards a side entrance against intruders. However, when this PIR detects movement, the base unit plays “Intruder on patio” and triggers a floodlight using one of four relays included on the base unit. System-6 can monitor all three zones simultaneously and still have three additional zones available when needed. Users can alter their messages and place the wireless sensors wherever they wish.   One last clever and reliable home system is the Telespy ($79.95).  The TeleSpy is an ordinary telephone that doubles as a monitoring system. Simply enter any phone number you want the unit to call and turn the motion sensor switch to on. Should motion be detected the phone will dial the number entered and upon answering you will be able to listen in via the amplified microphone on the unit. The TeleSpy allows you to decide from a safe location if it is a friend or foe before you call the police. The listening period is about 30 seconds, then the TeleSpy disconnects and instantly re-arms to detect again and again. TeleSpy operates from any phone line, requires no installation, and is completely portable. No monitoring fees, No false alarms.  The TeleSpy's motion sensor is PIR, or Passive Infrared Technology. The passive infrared sensor detects changes in the room's heat signature due to occupant motion. The range is in excess of 30 feet at which point the width is about 20 feet, creating about a 45 degree wedge beyond the sensor origin. The hidden condenser microphone is strategically placed for maximum efficiency. It is amplified to insure that the slightest of sounds are heard, producing a high quality listening experience. The TeleSpy is an ideal solution for smaller homes and apartments. About 30% of TeleSpys sold go into small businesses, garages or apartments and condos.  So, what happens if Telespy should call and you hear a burglar?  First, be grateful you're not there but are listening from a remote location. Never attempt to apprehend criminals.  Call 911 or your local law enforcement emergency phone number immediately.    These are only three of the home or office security alarm systems we carry. There are many others, including individual door and window alarms, motion detectors, security lights, safety lights, emergency help lights, electrical timers, wireless doorbells, safety beams, peep hole door cameras, wireless security cameras, security stickers and signs, personal alarms, pool alarms, and even barking dog alarms to scare away intruders.  We welcome you to come in and browse our wide selection of personal safety and security inventory. 

  The city of London has one of the highest numbers of video surveillance cameras in use in the world today. With over 10,000 cameras, by some estimates, mounted throughout the metropolitan area, perhaps the largest concentration of surveillance monitoring can be found along Oxford Street, in one of the city's busiest shopping districts. It has been estimated that in just a single day, approximately 500,000 shoppers can be found along its rows of retail stores looking for bargains. It's not only big stores or corporate offices that need video surveillance, but small retailers, too. It's an unfortunately fact of life that businesses of all sizes are affected by theft. According to National Retail Security Survey figures, released last June, merchandise loss cost retailers in the U.S. $33.5 billion. The majority of that (43%) was due to employee theft, which cost business owners $14.4 billion. And 35 percent ($11.7 billion) was due to shoplifting. Non-retailers can also benefit from video surveillance. Any business concern that operates warehouses, storage lockers, offices, and even parking lots can protect their interest from continuous monitoring to safe-guard against theft and vandalism. Video surveillance can also help to reduce the risk of liability from workplace accidents. What should small business owners look for in a video surveillance system? Here are three questions to help you determine the best solution for your company:      1.     How many locations do you have?  IP enabled network video surveillance systems enable you to view live video from a multitude of sites across different geographical locations. You can view live camera feeds on your PC or mobile phone, or be alerted on those devices to unusual activities based on the programming you set on the camera's software.   2.    Do you need to monitor your business during off-hours, or when you can't be there in person? You don't have to be tied to your computers in order to view your security cameras. Choose a video surveillance system that allows you to view camera feeds from any device that has an Internet browser. You could keep an eye on your assets from your dining table in a restaurant via your smartphone, or from your laptop when on the road.   3.    Do you have other security technologies, such as door sensors, motion sensors, and alarms? Your video surveillance system should be able to link to a variety of technologies, including other security controls, to give you a comprehensive view of your protected assets. The system should also be able to alert you via e-mail or phone messages to any unusual activities it detects. Other capabilities that you should consider in a video surveillance system include video monitoring software that comes as part of the package. For example, both our IP-Camera-Pro and IP-Camera Cloud network cameras comes with monitoring system software that includes support for up to 4 cameras, remote view and playback, and set-up for email notification anytime motion is detected by the camera's sensors. Also, choose cameras with pan, tilt, and zoom capabilities so you can view images from any angle. This is a cost-effective alternative to deploying multiple fixed cameras.

The best way to prevent a child from drowning is to be vigilant. But can you be vigilant 100% of the time? Last year more than 300 children in the U.S. under the age of 5 drowned in backyard swimming pools. Six-hundred more between the ages of 6 and 14 also died due to accidental drowning. There are times when even the best parents take their eyes off their children for a minute or two. At any moment, without any warning, a tragedy can occur. Most pool accidents happen in less than five minutes; about the time it takes to grab a sandwich or a cold bottle of soda. But there are tips and tools that can help reduce water mishaps and promote pool safety. Pool safety alarms are one item that every pool owner should have. The added protection they provide could keep your children from becoming another statistic.   The Pool Alarm is an electronic monitoring system that automatically sounds an alarm when children or pets fall into your unsupervised pool. It's portable, self-contained, and lightweight. The unit is simple to operate. Entry into the pool will be detected by the pool alarm's electronic sensor, triggering a loud pulsating alarm at the unit and inside your house from the remote receiver. Installation of the pool alarm is easy. It sits on the pool deck as in the picture. After you install the alarm, it can't be deactivated. It is always in the alarm ready mode until you put it in sleep mode. If someone who does not know how to put the pool alarm in sleep mode attempts to remove the alarm, it will sound an alarm. The pool alarm comes with a remote receiver which can be mounted in your house up to 200 feet from the main unit. It also comes with a 12 volt power supply, and the unit itself uses one 9-volt battery, which should last approximately one year. Installing a pool alarm is only one safety measure, though, when it comes to safe-guarding your children around the backyard pool. You need to be aware of the other nationally recognized water safety steps to ensure your children, or any child who enters your pool area, is protected as much as possible. Review these tips below and learn them. Don't let your child become another statistic. Practice pool safety. Step 1. For starters, never allow children to swim without adult supervision, even if they know how to swim. And always keep children under five within your reach while at the pool. Step 2. Enclose the pool with a fence that is at least five feet high. Keep the fence clear of chairs or other objects that children can use to climb over the fence. Make sure the gate stays locked and closes automatically. Step 3. Always keep a life saving ring near the pool. Don't use inflatable swimming aids as a substitute for adult supervision or approved life vests. They give children and parents a false sense of security. Step 4. When you are at the pool, be sure to keep a cell phone or a home phone line with you. You would never want to have to leave the pool area to use the phone. In the short amount of time that you are gone, a child can get injured or drown. Step 5. Install pool security devices like infrared motion detectors, underwater wave sensors, and pool alarms that will alert you if someone is in the pool. Step 6. When you're not using it, keep the pool completely covered. Never partially open the pool cover. Step 7. Finally, take the time to learn CPR. Utilizing these guidelines will help you keep your pool a fun, safe area.

One of the most dangerous places for children is the backyard swimming pool. Do not consider putting in a pool until they are at least six years or older, if possible. Make sure you practice pool safety year-round. Pool and spa submersions and drowning happen quickly, especially when they involve children. A child can drown in the time it takes to answer a telephone. Learn the simple steps you need to know to keep your children and family safe in and around pools and spas. One of the most effective means of safety is having constant adult supervision when children are in, or near the pool. It also means installing the first measure of safety in the form of a pool alarm. The pool alarm is an electronic monitoring system that automatically sounds an alarm when children or pets fall into your unsupervised pool. It's portable, self-contained, and lightweight. More than 900 children between 1 and 14 years old die each year in drowning accidents. In California, drowning is the number one cause of accidental death for children between 1 and 4. A pool alarm is your first line of defense, and can be the difference between life and death. Here are some other tips as set forth by the American Academy of Pediatrics to help safe-guard your children from accidental drowning this summer. ·         Never leave your children alone in or near the pool, even for a moment. An adult who knows CPR should actively supervise children at all times. ·         Practice touch supervision with children younger than 5 years. This means that the adult is within an arm's length of the child at all times. ·         You must put up a fence to separate your house from the pool. Most young children who drown in pools wander out of the house and fall into       the pool. Install a fence at least 4 feet high around all 4 sides of the pool. This fence will completely separate the pool from the house and play       area of the yard. Use gates that self-close and self-latch, with latches higher than your children's reach. ·         Keep rescue equipment (such as a shepherd's hook or life preserver) and a telephone by the pool. ·         Do not use air-filled “swimming aids” as a substitute for approved life vests. ·         Remove all toys from the pool after use so children aren't tempted to reach for them. ·         After the children are done swimming, secure the pool so they can't get back into it. ·        A power safety cover that meets the standards of the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) may add to the protection of your  children but should not be used in place of the fence between your house and the pool. Even fencing around your pool and using a power safety cover will not prevent all drowning. Remember, teaching your child how to swim DOES NOT mean your child is safe in water.     

A Pentagon office that helped develop microwave weapons that cause intense pain, lasers that temporarily blind people, and devices that emit intolerable levels of sound, is now working on a technology that uses electrical pulses to incapacitate people. If the research proves successful, it could lead to a new, more effective type of wireless stun gun. Called the nanosecond electrical pulse (nsEP) project, the research focuses on using brief electrical pulses to temporarily paralyze an individual by disrupting the nervous system, similar to the way the Taser now works. But where this project differs from  most other stun guns, according to the Pentagon, is that it could theoretically be built as a wireless system, and have a longer lasting effect Taser International, the leader in stunning devices, makes a line of incapacitating weapons that typically work with darts attached to wires, or by placing the weapon in direct contact with a person. Though there is a wireless version of a Taser, called the eXtended Range Electronic Projectile, which works from a shotgun, nanosecond electrical pulses offer the possibility of shrinking the size of the non-lethal round further, making the weapon more portable than current stun guns. Of the leading Taser products on the market today, the Taser Pulse is probably the most compact and popular model available, and the first choice of women. Small enough to carry in a purse, the Taser C2 can stop a threat up to 15 feet away (4.5 meters), allowing you a safe distance to protect yourself and family members from an attacker. If a close quarter defense is warranted, the C2 doubles as a contact stun device to repel someone with a powerful and unexpected backup capability. Stepping up from the Pulse is the more menacing Taser X2 with the same unprecedented take-down power as their law enforcement-grade counterparts. The Taser X2 delivers an incapacitating pulse that overrides the sensory and motor functions of the nervous system. This powerful Neuro Muscular Incapacitation (NMI) technology can stop even the most aggressive individuals, including those under the influence of drugs and/or alcohol. Taser ECDs (Electronic Control Devices) use replaceable cartridges containing inert, compressed nitrogen to fire two small probes that are attached to 15 foot insulated conductive wires. Energy is sent over the wires into the probes, which can penetrate up to two inches of clothing. The charge is transmitted between the two probes, jamming sensory and motor functions, and inhibiting muscular control. This NMI effect continues in 5-10 second cycles each time you press the trigger. The X2 and Taser X1 can also be used in direct contact stun mode. Carrying a Taser or Stun Gun is an excellent way to provide protection for yourself and your family, but it also comes with a certain amount of responsibility. Use it only in a manner consistent with the law, and take care to safeguard your device so it doesn't become lost or stolen.
