Did you know that a burglary happens somewhere in the United States every 14.7 seconds? This amounts to over two million burglaries annually. Experienced burglars can break into almost any home in mere seconds. Though no home is completely safe from attack, there are certainly security precautions you can take to make your home less of a target. Taking these steps requires first understanding how a burglar might get inside. Facts about burglars' entry points might surprise you.
Nearly half of all burglaries don't require the burglar to literally "break in." In fact, fully two fifths of all burglaries do not require forced entry because a door or window has been left open, unlocked and unguarded. The best way to protect your family from becoming part of this statistic is to make a concentrated effort never to leave doors or windows unlocked. If you don't have alarms on these entry points, a burglar who opens an unlocked door or window can simply go about their business calmly.
The most common entry point is the front door. In fact, more than a third of burglars come through the front entrance. Though you might assume that no burglar would be brazen enough to walk through the front door (especially during daylight hours, when the majority of burglaries happen), the truth is, your neighbors probably wouldn't notice a strange man standing on your porch. To prevent this possibility, make sure the door is secure, with a good deadbolt lock, as well as security lighting and a surveillance camera or dummy camera. In addition, consider forming a Neighborhood Watch, or a group of neighbors committed to keeping an eye on each others' homes.
The burglars who don't come in through the front door typically walk in your yard to a side or back door, where large bushes or fences shield them from the street. Their first step is to check for an unlocked, ground-floor entry point. Windows are popular entry points for burglars because far too many homeowners leave them open or unlocked when leaving the home. Even if they are locked, a burglar could simply break, the window, which makes it essential to install glass break detectors on any ground-floor windows large enough for a burglar to slip through.
Make sure that the back door is just as secure as the front door. Avoid placing a key under the mat or on top of the door frame, where any experienced burglar will know to look for it. Keep side and back entrances free of bushes or other obstructions that would prevent the burglar from being seen from the street or spotted by a neighbor. Burglars like entrances where they can take their time getting into the home. Take extra security measures around these entry points by installing motion detection lights or alarms.
Though doors or ground floor windows are the most common entry points, there are others. For example, a large tree allows a resourceful burglar to climb up to the second story, where families may be more likely to leave their bedroom windows open. Sliding glass doors leading to a patio or balcony are easily forced open or broken. Finally, an attached garage is often less protected than the rest of the home, and may even hold valuable tools or other possessions on its own.
Clearly, any door or window large enough for a person to crawl through could be targeted by an intruder. Take the necessary steps, including the installation of alarms, cameras, lighting, and other security features, before it is too late.

Getting ready for a big move? It can be a very stressful time, from figuring out where you're going to live and hiring a moving truck to packing up all of your belongings in cardboard boxes. With so much going on, you probably have a lot on your mind. During the process of moving, just make sure that you don't sacrifice the security of yourself and your property. If you don't keep your safety in mind while moving, your belongings could get lost or stolen, or your personal safety could even be threatened.
Before you start the process of moving, write out a checklist including all of the necessary steps (buying boxes and packing material, renting the moving truck, etc), particularly those that are necessary for your security. Do not put this off until the last minute!
If you are moving out of a home that you still own, don't forget to make plans for it, even though you'll no longer be living there. If you don't have adequate home security, install it now. Also hire someone to watch over the home and keep the yard trimmed so that your vacant home doesn't become a target for criminals and squatters.
While you are in the middle of the move, you probably have belongings located as both homes. You can't just leave these unprotected – always make sure that all of the doors and windows are locked when you leave one home to drive to the other. Otherwise, a burglar could take advantage of the move to break in and take whatever is still there.
As soon as you have access to you new home, your first three steps should be turning on the electricity and water services and changing the locks. These should be done prior to moving day if possible. Even if you know the previous occupants and think they are trustworthy, always change the locks when moving into a new place. You simply never know how many copies of the key are out there, and it's better to be safe than sorry. The same goes for changing the codes for alarms and home security systems.
Once the boxes are unpacked, you still have a few crucial home security tasks ahead of you. As you settle in, consider ways you can make your new residence safer. Take a survey of the home to inspect all of the door and window locks. Check to see if there are any broken windows or old ones that could be forced open. Consider replacing the front door with one that's thicker and less likely to get kicked in by an intruder.
Home security goes beyond checking the condition of existing security features. Are there any bushes that need to be cut down to remove potential hiding spaces, or dark places in need of extra security lighting? Are there any outdoor security lights at all? What about security alarms on the doors and windows? Moving in is the perfect time to install these critical home security features. Don't wait until you've settled in and become complacent before considering potential security upgrades. In fact, many families prefer to have all of these devices in place before ever spending a night in their new home, to help them feel comfortable while getting used to sleeping in an unfamiliar room.

Moving to the city can be an exciting adventure, but it can also be intimidating. The fast-paced lifestyle, coupled with the thousands of strangers you meet every day, can make anyone concerned with their safety. Cities do require a few extra precautions, though they are a wonderful place to visit or live. Be sure to understand the risks so that you can enjoy city life to the fullest extent possible.
City dwellers tend to live in tall apartment buildings. Whether you have a doorman or a roommate, or are all by yourself when it comes to looking out for the safety of your abode, there are home security tactics to help you feel at home in your new environment. When you move in, install door and window alarms, no matter which floor of the building you are on. These simple security devices are great for apartment dwellers because they can be taken with you when you move. Change the locks so that you know you're the only one with the key. If you've never lived in a large apartment building before, know that you should be careful who you let into the building.
Introduce yourself to your neighbors so that you can get to know the area; they will also be more likely to look out for your safety if they know you. Take the time to get to know your new neighborhood; not only can this help you spot potential safety risks, but it's also one of the joys of exploring a new city. Many people mistakenly believe that city dwellers are less friendly than those in rural or suburban areas, but this is not true. Though there is certainly a different pace of life, people in the city want a safe and friendly neighborhood to live in just like anyone else. If you need help adjusting to your new locale, don't be afraid to ask.
Many people sell their cars before they move to the city, planning to rely on public transportation. Taking the bus or subway is certainly convenient, though it also exposes you to thousands of strangers every day, some of whom may not have the best intentions in mind. Always carry pepper spray, a stun gun, or a personal alarm, keep a close watch over your belongings, and be aware of those around you so that you can spot suspicious behavior before it becomes an actual threat. Street smarts are a skill that can be acquired as you become accustomed to city life.
Even if you don't take public transportation, you will be meeting lots of new people. Keeping your safety in mind is crucial no matter where you go, whether you're alone or with a group of new friends. Date rape, pickpocketers, and muggings are all possibilities in a big city. Use your common sense to avoid them and don't be afraid to carry self defense devices to protect yourself from threats like these.
Though moving to the city means a big adjustment, it is also a very exciting time. As you get settled into a routine and get to know the city, you will begin to get comfortable. A little extra attention to personal security can help you enjoy your new surroundings as safely as possible.

Article Title: Which is the Right Stun Gun For You?

*********************** ARTICLE START ***********************
Are you considering buying a stun gun to protect yourself from a violent threat? Are you wondering which of the available models is the best one for you to carry? With so many different styles, it can be difficult to choose the best self defense product.
The first decision is what size or shape of stun gun would be best for you to carry. Many men opt for the regular-sized stun gun, which has a larger size that is more comfortable in larger hands. Most of these stun gun options come in masculine-looking styles and can be carried in a belt holster.
On the other hand, if you prefer to carry your nonlethal self defense device in your purse or pocket, a traditional-looking stun gun might not be the best option for you. You might want to look for a mini stun gun, or even one designed to look like a cell phone. These devices are small enough to fit inside a package of cigarettes, making them easily concealed, yet their small size does not compromise any power. There are even versions made in pink, silver, and other fashionable colors.
In addition to the cell phone stun gun, which is disguised as a cell phone, there are other styles that combine a stun gun with other devices. For example, the stun baton offers the ability to physically defend yourself while maintaining a safe distance from your attacker. There are also stun flashlights, which provide a helpful security feature if you are attacked in the dark. The downside is that stun batons and flashlights, unlike mini stun guns, tend to be larger and harder to conceal. This style is often preferred by security guards, as well as those who often find themselves outdoors at night or who want a more hands-on method of self defense.
Once you've selected the right stun gun style, the next consideration is voltage. Most people shopping for a stun gun end up wondering how many volts they need. How much power is too much? And how low is too low? Certainly you don't want to kill someone with your stun gun, but at the same time, it will do you no good if the voltage is too low to stop your attacker in his tracks. Because stun guns have a low amperage current, even a very high voltage will not be lethal. Even the highest voltage stun guns on the market today, which offer a million volts of power or more, will not produce a lethal current, so get the highest voltage you can find.
Finally, there are few useful features and "extras" that you should look for when buying a stun gun. A disable pin, which is attached to the wrist strap, prevents the unit from working if it is taken from you by the assailant. Though it is unlikely that an attacker would be able to get your stun gun away from you before you'll able to use it, it can happen, so get a stun gun with a disable pin to protect yourself.
Another useful feature is the ability to recharge the stun gun. Some stun guns use regular batteries, which must be replaced every few months. A rechargeable stun gun allows you to use the same set of rechargeable batteries over and over. Just plug in your stun gun occasionally to ensure that it maintains a charge.
Finally, a holster can be a very important accessory. Self defense devices are only effective if you keep them on you at all times. Having a holster increases the chances that you will have your stun gun, and that it will be within reach, in case you ever need it.
By shopping for the best stun gun to meet your needs, you may truly be sparing yourself and your family a lot of trouble and pain in the future. Now is the time to take the steps to protect your loved ones from violent crime.

Article Title: How to Protect Your Sliding Glass Door?

*********************** ARTICLE START ***********************
The sliding glass door leading to your patio may be one of the most overlooked security vulnerabilities in your home. While your front door is probably rather thick, with a deadbolt to prevent someone from breaking in, the patio door may be made entirely from glass with only a flimsy lock. Enhancing patio door security poses a unique challenge because of the way most sliding glass doors are designed, but it is certainly possible. Here are a few ways to enhance the security of this vulnerable area of your home:
Your first step is to check the installation of the door. Did you know that some sliding glass doors have been improperly installed in a way that allows an intruder to simply lift the door off the tracks? Call in a professional if you're not sure if the door has been installed correctly. Driving a screw into the top of the upper track can also prevent some of these issues.
Now, get a bar to stop the door from being forced open. This bar fits into the track of the sliding glass door, preventing it from opening even if the lock is broken. This simple yet effective door stopper is easy to use and won't interfere with the attractiveness of your patio door. Even a broom handle or dowel placed in the track will serve this purpose.
Next, consider adding a second lock to your sliding glass door. Most patio doors have relatively flimsy locks that can snap off or break under pressure and could easily be forced open by an intruder. Look for a reliable and durable lock to prevent this possibility.
One of the most important security features you can add is a glass break alarm. This alarm will sound if the glass breaks for any reason, from a child throwing a baseball to a burglar wielding a bat. Large panes of glass, such as those found in the typical sliding glass door, are particularly vulnerable entry points because they can be smashed. Glass break alarms will instantly alert you to the breach in security. This is one of the simplest and most effective way to stop burglars from entering through a broken glass door. Your other options to stop a burglar from breaking the glass to get inside are to install ugly security bars across the pane or replace it with expensive bulletproof or shatter-resistant glass. Even if you have glass break detectors, you should also install door alarms, which will go off if the door is opened.
Finally, any door or window, including patio doors, should be protected with outdoor lighting and a surveillance camera. Whether you choose a dummy camera or the real deal, burglars will avoid that entry point because they don't want to be caught on tape breaking in.
You can protect the security of your patio door not only through using these security devices, but also by paying attention to how you use the door. Do you ever leave it open for ventilation or while you're outside gardening, lounging by the pool, or enjoying our backyard? Remember, open windows and doors should never be left unattended. If you're out of eyesight, it takes just seconds for a burglar to slip inside.
A large percentage of burglars enter through a back or side door, where they can't be seen from the street. Many families forget about the importance of securing these entry points from burglars. It is easy to increase the security of this area with little effort and minimal cost.

As the home mortgage crisis continues, more and more homes remain empty for several months or longer. Driving around your neighborhood, or indeed any neighborhood across America, you may be surprised at the number of real estate signs you see. So many homes sitting vacant means a huge risk as far as criminal conduct is concerned. Far too many homeowners who have moved out leave the home completely unsecured. Whether the home has been foreclosed by the bank or the owners have moved out while their previous home is still on the market, criminals know there's no one living inside to catch them if they break in.
Criminals break into a vacant home for a variety of reasons. Perhaps they need a place to stay, or a place to engage in drug dealing or other illegal activities. Though the homeowners isn't around to see it, these activities can have a substantial impact on those left in the neighborhood. These vacant homes are drawing criminals who use such residences to hide their crimes, whatever they may be, from the prying eyes of the public. Not only that, but criminal conduct attracted to the neighborhood often spreads outward, from vacant homes to everywhere else.
What can you do about this possibility? For one, if you have moved out of a home but still own it, take the necessary steps to protect your investment. This means installing alarms, cameras, and security lighting. If you have left the home vacant, it's also important to make sure that there's nothing inside that could be stolen. Don't use your vacant home as an unmonitored storage facility. Close the blinds so that no one can tell that there are no occupants or see what kind of appliances might be there to steal.
Drive by the home occasionally to check on its condition, or if this proves to be impossible, enlist a friend or former neighbor to do the same. Just because you're not living there doesn't mean that you are able to neglect to care for the home. Hire a handyman or landscaper to keep the home and yard in good condition; doing so makes the home looked lived-in, and also maintains the property value and makes it more attractive to potential buyers. Turn off the heat and electricity while there's no one living there. Not only will this lower upkeep costs, but it also makes it much less likely that the home will become a squatter's shelter.
If you do not own a vacant home, but live in a neighborhood where this may be an issue, join together with your neighbors to form a Neighborhood Watch. Such a group signifies a commitment to watching activities in the neighborhood and reporting suspicious behaviors to the police. If you see people constantly coming and going from a home you know to be vacant, alert the police to the situation – it may be a drug house, or there may be other criminal activities happening there. We must all be aware of the homes in our neighborhood and the people who live there. You don't have to become the neighborhood gossip or snoop around to find out what's going on, but being aware of people coming and going can keep your family and your neighborhood safe from crime.

Article Title: Is it Possible to Defend Yourself Against a Knife?

*********************** ARTICLE START ***********************
Being confronted by an attacker wielding a knife is perhaps every woman's worst nightmare. In fact, anyone should feel threatened by this scenario, no matter how big or strong you consider yourself. The thought of being cut or stabbed is simply terrifying.
Is it ever possible to defend yourself in this scenario? While it is possible to escape unharmed, you will have to act quickly, ideally even before the assailant pulls out the knife. The best defense is avoiding the situation in the first place. Your best defense against an armed attacker is avoidance. Pay attention to your surroundings no matter where you are, whether in a crowded shopping mall or the deserted parking lot outside. If you're not paying attention, the attacker could grab you from behind and have a knife at your throat before you even realize you are in danger.
If you are being attacked by someone holding a knife, the worst thing you can do is run. If you turn your back on the knife-wielding attacker, you have left your whole backside completely unprotected. There is virtually no chance you can get to safety before your attacker has a chance to stab you in the back. If someone is intent on attacking you with a knife, and you already see the knife, it's too late for fleeing to save you from the confrontation. This is especially true if you are standing face to face with your attacker. In a matter of two to three steps, they can be on top of you. In this scenario, your chance of running to safety is essentially zero. You can't count on anyone else to save you now; it is up to you.
If you are attacked, the most important thing for you to do is protect your vital areas, such as your head and chest. Put your hands up to protect yourself. Even if it means your arms end up cut up, that's a better fate than cuts across your face and neck, or a stab wound to the chest. Being attacked by a knife is a case of trying to avoid the worst-case scenario; it's unlikely at this point that you'll come out of the attack unscathed. You will not die from a few cuts to your arms; at this point, your priority must be avoiding serious injury.
Once these vital areas are protected, you must fight back to get away. You can't just curl up in a fetal position, or the attack will never stop. Use your TASER device, stun gun, pepper spray, or even your car keys or purse, if that's all you have. This works best against an attacker who is wielding a knife but has not yet lunged forward with it, though once the attack has started, escaping must still be your goal. Practicing this scenario with a partner can help you develop strategies for using your self defense devices when being attacked with a knife. Kick, hit, and do everything in your power to get the attacker down. Target key areas such as the eyes that may cause your attacker to drop the knife. Typically, the attack will only stop once the attacker is incapacitated or is no longer holding onto the knife, so this must be your goal.

Article Title: How Well Will a Stun Gun Work?

*********************** ARTICLE START ***********************
Those shopping for self defense devices and considering the purchase of a stun gun often wonder just how effective this device could be. After all, a mini stun gun is only about the size of a package of cigarettes. Surely this isn't strong enough to take down a full-grown man, right? Actually, stun guns are surprisingly powerful, and will take down any attacker almost instantly. Still, if you plan to carry a stun gun for self defense, you should be aware of how the stun gun's effects may change on attackers who are larger, smaller, or wearing certain types of clothing.
Although the best-case scenario is the stun gun coming into direct contact with your attacker's bare skin, fear not, for this device will still work effectively even through a typical layer of clothing. Jeans, t-shirts, and even a down jacket will not stop a powerful stun gun. Thin layers of clothing are certainly no match for its powers, as the current will go right through them.
However, if your attacker happens to be wearing a rubberized coat or a thick leather jacket, try to aim for an area of his body not covered by this clothing, as it may provide some insulation from the full power of the electric shock. Try to place the stun gun against bare skin or areas of the body covered only in a thin layer of clothing. Still, the highest voltage stun guns available on the market today should be able to penetrate even the thickest layers of clothing. Today, there are stun guns offering a million volts or even more. This will easily penetrate thick clothing to disable your attacker, but will not cause any serious or permanent harm.
In addition to the issue of clothing, there is also a prevalent myth that a stun gun will be rendered useless against an attacker who is under the influence of drugs or alcohol. For the vast majority of people, the effects of a stun gun will not change under these conditions. No amount of willpower can fight a stun gun's effects.
Finally, many people wonder if their stun gun will be effective against an attacker who is very large. Although it does require more of an electric current to take down assailants who are large, the highest voltage stun guns on the market today are certainly powerful enough to do so. The current will incapacitate your attacker faster if you aim for a large body part, such as the torso, rather than an arm or leg. When shopping for a stun gun, choose the most powerful one you can find, because it will work fastest against attackers of all sizes.
Once the stun gun has contacted your attacker, the electrical current interrupts signals sent to the muscles, resulting in loss of balance, mental confusion, and other effects. Your attacker will be left motionless and literally stunned. All it takes is a second or two of contact between the stun gun and your attacker. Try to hold the stun gun in place for as long as possible, or until your assailant falls to the ground. The effects of a stun gun last up to fifteen minutes, plenty of time for you to escape.

Article Title: The Top Five Features of Your Home That Are Harming Your Home Security

*********************** ARTICLE START ***********************
Those who take pride in the appearance of their home often don't consider the detrimental effect that these improvements could potentially have on their home security. In fact, many of the most common upgrades actually make your home easier to break into. While this isn't reason to avoid them entirely, you should be aware of the possibility so that you can strengthen your security lighting and otherwise protect these vulnerable areas of your home. Here are the top five features that may harm your home security:
1. Landscaping. Large, healthy bushes and trees may make your yard a lot more beautiful, but they also make it more attractive for burglars. This is particularly true if your landscaping continues right up to the side of your house. Burglars trying to break in through a window would much prefer to do so if a large bush is shielding them from being seen from the street. It is also possible for large trees to provide a way for thieves to climb up to the second story, where you may be less diligent about closing or locking your windows.
2. Sliding glass doors. These may give you a beautiful view of your backyard, but they are one of the weakest points of the home when it comes to security. In addition to being easily smashed by a determined thief, if not installed correctly, they could even be lifted right off the track. Always use a safety bar in the track to keep the door from being opened by uninvited visitors, and install a motion detector or glass smash alarm as part of your security system.
3. A tall fence. Often, homeowners install fencing because it helps them feel more secure. However, a big fence around the perimeter of your yard actually makes it more attractive for thieves, who like the privacy while they're breaking in. It also makes criminals feel more secure spending a lot of time in the home and in your yard, where you might be storing valuable tools and equipment. Having a fence up for privacy can be a nice addition to your home, but it also makes your home less secure. To mitigate the threat, install security lighting or outdoor surveillance cameras, and consider opting for a lower fence or a perimeter of trees.
4. Attached garages. This may seem like a commonplace home feature, but in fact a garage attached to the home gives an intruder time to figure out a way inside the rest of the house while they are shielded inside the garage. Plus, the garage itself may have lots of valuable items to steal, such as tools or even a car. Entries into the garage, and from the garage into the home, tend to be the least protected of all of your home's exterior doors. Don't overlook the garage when thinking about home security. Install durable doors and locks, and protect your garage with alarms and cameras, just like the rest of the house.
5. Panes of glass in the front door. These decorative features add to the appeal of your home's front entrance, but they can also turn what is normally the most secure entry point into one of the least secure. This is particularly true if the pane of glass is low enough in the door that once smashed, an arm can be reached through to unlock the door. Instead, make sure you have a peephole installed, rather than using a window in the door to see who's knocking.

Today, there is more and more importance placed on protecting your home with fire detectors, security cameras, alarms, and related security devices. Perhaps just as important is adjusting your behaviors so that you do not place yourself in undue harm, rather than relying on security systems to stop the threat. Whether you have young kids or teens living at home or live by yourself, home security should be your top priority. Establish these five everyday safety and security rules with your family to make sure that your home security plan keeps you all safe.
1. No leaving the house until the alarms are on and the doors are locked. Make a point to conduct a check of doors and windows before you leave. Alarms and locks only protect your home when you use them. Don't get careless as time passes – it only takes once for a burglar to get in.
2. No opening the door to strangers or taking their phone calls. Young children should not be permitted to open the door or answer the phone. Older children should be instructed not to open the door unless they know the person. It is important to stress that this rule still applies even if they are wearing the uniform of a delivery person or repairman, a common ruse used by criminals to get inside a home.
3. Don't leave the doors open carelessly. Do you commonly leave the garage door open while you're working in the backyard, or the front door open to let a breeze in while you're out by the pool? Any door open for an extended period of time is an invitation for thieves to walk right in. You might think that you would notice if someone walked into your home unannounced,but the truth is, you probably wouldn't. If you must leave the door open, install a door chime alert.
4. Everyone carries a key. As soon as your kids are old enough to be coming and going on their own, make sure that they have a house key with them at all times. Don't rely on a hide-a-key (or worse, simply leaving the door unlocked) as part of a daily routine. They should also know how to set and disarm door and window alarms.
5. House rules for parties and curfews. If you have teens, you know how frustrating enforcing these rules can be, but they are among the most important rules to have for your teens. If you're going to be away for the night, make it clear that they should not throw a party in your absence. This could open your family to a wide variety of threats, from teenage drinking to a guest stealing your jewelry. The danger isn't just at home, of course. While away very late at night, teens can get into all sorts of trouble. If they are frequently out at night, make sure they carry pepper spray or a similar device and that you've talked about safety with them.

*********************** ARTICLE START ***********************
Statistics show that when entering or leaving your home or any other building, you are vulnerable to muggings, assault, home invasions, and a wide range of other crimes. Because you enter and leave your home every day, you don't think about your actions as you do them. As a result, you are not aware of potential threats, and don't have time to react before you are confronted or attacked between your driveway and your front door. The same goes for walking from a parking lot into a store. When entering or leaving, always remember to:
Avoid carrying large stacks of items that block your vision or make it difficult to unlock your door quickly. It might seem like a hassle, but it's much better to take smaller amounts in several trips than to try to balance so much that you must walk slowly and pay more attention to the packages than to your surroundings.
Always lock the car door, even if you're just running in for a second. Remember, a second is all a thief needs to get in. This is especially true if you are parking around a lot of other people, such as at a curb as you run into a store. The thief could easily get in your car and drive away without anyone realizing he doesn't belong there.
Keep your porch light on. This way, you won't be surprised in the dark. If you think you might arrive home after dark, turn it on before you leave. A porch light costs just pennies a month to operate, and will make the exterior of your home much safer, both when you're there and when you're not.Walk quickly inside. This is particularly true after dark and if you don't feel that the neighborhood is very safe. Walk straight into the building while paying attention to your surroundings.
Carry self defense devices such as pepper spray, a stun gun, or a powerful flashlight. These are handy not just in driveways and parking lots. Remember, you could be attacked anytime, anywhere. Whether you're in a parking lot, in the mall, or at the park, you should have something with you to get yourself out of a potentially dangerous confrontation.
Follow your instincts. If something doesn't seem right, you may be heading into a dangerous situation. It's safer to sit in your car with the windows up and the doors locked, or in the store or business, than to exit into an unknown situation, even if you are prepared to defend yourself. If you're at home, call someone to come over. If you're in a commercial area, ask the store for a security escort to ensure that you reach your car safely.
Above all, pay attention to your surroundings. Because you drive around in your car every day, you probably don't pay too much attention to what's around you as you walk to or from it. Even if you think you'd notice something out of place, like a strange car parked on the street, chances are pretty good that you wouldn't notice something suspicious until it was too late.

Article Title: Is Your Home Security Affected by Your Lifestyle Choices

Even if you are a completely trustworthy and upstanding member of your community, your everyday habits and lifestyle choices can still have a substantial impact on your home security. Although these choices do not mean that you will necessarily fall victim to a home invasion, if you recognize yourself in the below list, you should be paying particular attention to your home security. By installing appropriate home security devices, you can counteract some of the security dangers presented by these lifestyles.
1. The entertainer. If you frequently invite large groups of people into your home, you run the risk of inviting over people that you don't know very well. Whether they are friends of friends, or that coworker you've never had the chance to get to know, the problem of having lots of people inside your home is that they get plenty of opportunities while you're entertaining other guests. While at your party, they could easily sneak away to explore the layout, find out what you have, or even slip your jewelry into their pocket or purse.
If you like to host parties, you don't have to lock up your doors and never let anyone inside again. Instead, make sure that your valuables are kept out of sight while you're entertaining, and be aware of any guests who go missing while in your home, as they might have slipped away from the group.
2. The partier. You're not immune from risk if you prefer to go out to parties rather than hosting them in your own home. If you often go out at night and come home very late, typically inebriated, you are at risk of being targeted by a criminal. Someone watching your routine may assume that if you go out at night, you won't return for many hours. Also, inebriated homeowners are incapacitated and easy to overpower, and tend to leave doors or windows open while sleeping, forget to lock the door, or make other basic security errors.
If you see yourself in this description, it may be a good idea to take it down a notch with the partying, as you are putting yourself at risk. In order to stay safe, always have someone accompany you to your home at the end of the evening to thwart a surprise attack, and consider features such as automatic locks on doors.
3. The traveler. Heading out on the weekend to go camping, stay at your vacation home, or travel to a faraway destination is certainly a lot of fun, but your home is more vulnerable while you're away. If your routine is to head out of town as soon as the clock hits 5:00 on Friday, you can bet that any burglar watching you has picked up on this. If your home is left empty all weekend, this gives criminals plenty of time to empty out all of your valuable belongings. Consider asking someone to house sit, purchasing a dog barking alarm, or installing extra security features to protect your home while you're not there.
4. The workaholic. Most home invasions happen not at night, but in the middle of the day, while most people are away at work. If you work long hours, a criminal may have anywhere from 8 to 18 hours to clean out your home uninterrupted. Those who are never home during daylight hours should consider light timers, dog barking alarms, or other security features to make it look as though someone is home.

Article Title: The Most Important Locations For Security Cameras on Your Property

When it comes to home security, surveillance cameras are one of your best lines of defense. A good camera can deter crime and capture evidence of a wide variety of unwanted behaviors, from misbehaving kids to a burglar breaking in. Whether you install dummy cameras or opt for the real thing, placing your cameras in strategic locations is the key to using cameras for home security.
Don't wait to make your plan after you've already purchased the cameras. Instead, it should be one of the factors when you are deciding how many cameras and what type of cameras to buy. When planning the setup of your surveillance cameras, most homeowners opt for a mix of camera styles, including hidden cameras, standard surveillance cameras, and "dummy" cameras, for a variety of uses indoors and out.
Determining how many cameras you'll need to purchase to provide adequate protection for your home requires walking around your home, both inside and outside, to spot the locations that would be ideal for surveillance cameras. Here are the top five best places to install a security camera on your property:
1. High on the house, angled towards the front door and windows. Typically, the best location to mount a camera to capture activities at the front of the house is in the eaves or on the second story. Your front door is one of the most common entry points for burglars. A camera mounted there can also capture the image of suspicious visitors and anything else that might be happening near this center of activity. Many families use a surveillance camera to see who's knocking before they approach the door. If you have a long pathway or front gate, you may also want to aim a camera at this location.
2. Towards the back and side doors. After the front door, the back door is the second most popular entry point for burglars. Side doors are also quite popular, because intruders feel more comfortable taking their time to get into the home when they can't be seen from the street. These cameras should be mounted in the most obvious position available so that burglars see them and decide that your home is too well protected to risk entering. Dummy cameras serve this purpose well.
3. In the backyard with night vision and motion-sensing lights. If you have a large backyard, or keep tools or other expensive equipment in the yard, a camera trained on your property is essential. Make sure that it's one with infrared or "night-vision" capabilities so that you can see what's happening in the dark.
4. In the living room. A hidden camera in the living room lets you watch the activities going on without anyone knowing you're watching. This is a particularly important strategy if you regularly have babysitters, housecleaners, or other service providers in your home. Hidden cameras can be placed on the mantel, on a bookshelf, or nearly anywhere else within the room, as their small size makes them easy to hide.
5. Problem areas. Are you having trouble with people spraying graffiti on your fence? Do you suspect that the nanny may be mistreating your kids? Do you have a particularly hidden entrance that might be targeted by burglars? All are great reasons to install a security camera aimed particularly at stopping this threat.

Article Title: Look Out For Danger When Hiring a Home Contractor
Author: Richard Armen

*********************** ARTICLE START ***********************
Whether you're in need of a painter, a plumber, or someone to remodel your living room, hiring a home contractor is typically one of the first steps of any major home improvement project. While the best way to choose a contractor is based on personal referrals from friends who have used their services in the past, if you don't know anyone who has had similar work done, you may not be able to use this method. If that's the case, how do you hire a home contractor?
When looking for a contractor, consider whether you would let just any stranger into your home. The answer's probably no, right? Then why would you let an unknown person who says they're a contractor into your home? Before hiring any home contractor, always consider the reputation of the strangers who will be entering your home. When you hire a service from an ad in the phone book or a flyer on a telephone pole, you never really know what kind of trouble you could be inviting inside.
Anyone can pose as a repair man. With a white van and a generic uniform, there is little visual difference between employees of a reputable company and those who are posing as contractors to gain entry into your home. Always check their background and references before hiring anyone, and insist on using licensed and bonded contractors who have a business license, not just anyone who's decided they want to work as a handyman.
So, what's the danger of hiring a less than perfect contractor? Even if you ignore the potential for poor workmanship on your project, a dishonest contractor could steal your valuable possessions. In their own homes, most families leave valuable objects such as jewelry and electronics relatively unguarded. An unscrupulous handyman could take advantage of this fact. In addition to stealing your possessions outright, they could be casing your home for a future break-in, or even surreptitiously unlatching windows to make their return visit even easier. Statistics show that is actually far more likely for an acquaintance (such as any worker you've allowed in over the past several months) to break into your home than for a complete stranger to do so.
What are some other signs of a company you should avoid? For one, avoid fly-by-night businesses who are unable or unwilling to provide references for previous clients. Once you do have this list of supposedly satisfied customers, don't be afraid to give them a call. Never sign a contract if you feel pressured into it. If the contractor tells you that you must sign today or you'll miss out on a limited-time deal, or uses other high-pressure sales tactics, avoid them. Legit contracting companies understand that those planning a home renovation project need time to think it over.
Far too many unsuspecting homeowners decide to let the contractor work in their home without supervision. Maybe you can't get the day off work or think it would be boring to sit around all day watching them paint, but this step is absolutely critical to ensure the safety of your belongings. If you are a woman, consider making sure that a male friend or relative will be there as well, to guard your own personal safety.
Even if you are there all day, there's no way you can watch all of the employees at once. Surveillance cameras placed in strategic locations allow you to keep an eye on their activities. Also be sure to double-check all door and window locks, as well as the location of any valuables, as soon as possible after the workers are done for the day.

Article Title: Self Defense and Home Security for the Disabled

Those who are disabled or have a family member who is disabled are confronted with a variety of challenges. When you have a disability, no matter what form it might take, your activities may be somewhat limited. Unfortunately, these limitations make you vulnerable to attack. Most criminals tend to prey on those who seem to be weak or unable to defend themselves. As a result, those who are disabled are easy prey for lurking predators. Disabled people also may also be more vulnerable to fires, falls, and other threats.
By being aware of this fact, you can take steps to defend yourself, both inside and outside the home. Those with family members who are disabled can also play a role in ensuring that they are kept safe from harm. The following are some helpful self defense and home security tips, both for those living with a disability and for those around them.
First, consider your physical limitations. Some disabilities will affect your physical ability to thwart an attack, while others may not have a significant affect on this ability. There are options for everyone when it comes to self defense. Even for those whose ability to fight back is somewhat compromised, pepper spray, stun guns, and related devices may afford an opportunity to stop a violent threat.
In addition to considering ways to fight back against violence, also consider more routine safety threats, and install physical safety products around the home. Bars for stability, non-stick bathmats, wheelchair ramps, and related home safety products can go a long way toward making the home more comfortable for a disabled resident, as well as reducing the risk of a fall. One of the most stressful concerns for family members of disabled people is how to make the home a safe environment for them. Considering your physical abilities is as important when considering improving home safety as it is when considering your ability to fight back against a violent threat.
Next, carry personal alarms with you everywhere you go. These small alarms can be kept on a keychain or necklace. When confronted with a threat, whether someone has just snatched your purse or you have slipped and fallen, just press the button. A loud audible alarm will signal that you need assistance. These handy devices are a great choice for children, elderly parents, disabled people, or anyone else who may need the help of others to escape a violent threat or recover from a sudden injury.
When it comes to home safety and personal security, it is always important to keep specific needs of each family member in mind. This is also true when not dealing with a disabled family member. Kids and the elderly may also need specific home security devices, and of course, every homeowner should be taking steps to keep their home and themselves out of harm's way. These tips can increase your confidence, both inside and away from the home. Despite your disability, you can protect yourself, teaching the bad guys that you're not as vulnerable as you look.

Did you know that a break-in happens somewhere in the United States about every 12 to 15 seconds? Almost everyone assumes that they are immune to becoming part of this statistic, yet every year, thousands of people do. Even if you think that your home is relatively secure, could you be doing more? Most homeowners make at least a few mistakes when it comes to home security; in fact, it's nearly impossible to live your life without opening yourself up to some common home security risks. It might surprise you how much your everyday actions are leaving you vulnerable to burglars or other criminals. Here are the five everyday home security mistakes that almost everyone makes:
1. Being careless with junk mail. Junk mail is just "junk," right? If you think junk mail isn't worth a second thought, you're wrong. Don't leave your mail in the mailbox or throw it away without shredding it. Junk mail contains a surprising amount of personal identification. Even just one credit card application is enough for an identity thief to wreak havoc on your finances. Plus, information found in the mail could help a savvy burglar figure out when there will be no one home.
2. Answering the door without first finding out who is there. Once the door is opened just a crack, it is extraordinarily easy for someone on the other side to force their way into your home. If you don't have a peephole in your front door, install one this weekend. Video surveillance systems can be another great way to keep an eye on your front porch and find out who's knocking.
If the person ringing your doorbell is dressed as a delivery person or maintenance worker, and you're not expecting one, don't be afraid to ask for their identification. There have been stories in the news about burglars posing in these common uniforms as a disguise to gain entry into the home.
3. Being too obvious when hiding a spare key. Many people hide a spare key somewhere near the home in case they get locked out. The problem comes when the key is not hidden well, such as under the doormat or inside a hide-a-key that sticks out like a sore thumb. If you want to keep a spare key where criminals won't find it, use a realistic hide-a-key device placed in a location where it blends into the surroundings.
4. Forgetting to use locks and alarms. It isn't enough to simply have locks and security alarms on the doors. In order for them to work, you must actually use them! You might be surprised to know just how many homeowners frequently miss this critical step.
5. Being careless with their phone number. If your home phone number is listed in the phone book, anyone who looks it up can find your address, and anyone who calls will know when you're not home. With an address and phone number, a surprising amount of information can be learned about the occupant. This is particularly true when your answering machine gives out too much personal information about you, such as that you are a young woman living alone. Instead, keep your landline number private, and give out your cell phone number to anyone who needs to contact you.

Many people rely on mechanical systems such as alarms to protect the security of their home and family. While alarms, cameras, and similar devices are certainly important layers of protection, it is perhaps equally valuable to consider the human aspect of your home security. By learning more about the people around you, you can better understand potential security threats. The truth is, your home is more likely to be broken into by an acquaintance than by someone you've never met. Here are the top four people you should get to know:
1. Your neighbors. These people have been living next to you for years, and are always around your home, but how well do you really know them? Although it's understandable to want to keep to yourself, you should at least introduce yourself to them. By getting to know them just a little better, they will be more willing to look out for you. You may even be able to form a neighborhood watch, in which those living in the neighborhood agree to watch each other's property and report any suspicious behaviors to the police.Get to know those in and around your neighborhood, not just do find out about potential threats but also as a way to band together against these threats. After all, there is strength in numbers.
2. Your mailman. Although many people aren't home when their mail carrier drops off the mail, make an effort to meet them. During the day, the mail man may be the only one to notice suspicious activities going on around your house. Many mail carriers are surprisingly familiar with the daytime routines of those on their routes. After striking up a friendly conversation, your mail carrier may be more likely to notice something out of place at your home.
3. The repairmen, plumber, electrician, and other hired workers. Although many people would automatically agree with the idea that it is not smart to allow strangers into their home, far too many unsuspecting homeowners let repair workers into their home without doing anything to check into their background or reputation. Many burglars dress up in the common uniforms of these workers as a disguise to assess your home without being noticed or even to break in. Only hire from licensed companies with a strong reputation. Never invite them into your home if you are there alone, and keep an eye on them while they are there.
4. Your child's babysitter. Even if they have been caring for your child for years, how well do you really know them? On one hand, how do you know that they are taking good care of your kids and aren't taking your jewelry or having friends over while you're not there? On the other hand, they are the person in charge while you're away, and you must be able to trust them to report anything suspicious. Because they will be home without you, make sure that you've gone over your home's security rules, including the operation of door and window alarms, and make sure that they aren't letting in their friends or any strangers who come to the door. If you suspect foul play, consider installing a hidden "nanny cam" to keep an eye on things.

Identity theft is becoming a growing threat in the United States today. Most homeowners don't ever think about this, but the mailbox in front of their home is one of the most vulnerable areas when it comes to identity theft. Not only can thieves steal sensitive financial and identity documents, but they can also learn an awful lot about the occupants of the home. By going through the contents of your mailbox, a burglar could learn that you've recently purchased electronics through the mail and booked your summer vacation, both of which can be used against you. All it takes is for a thief to beat you to the mailbox by just a few minutes to wreak havoc on your life.
These days, nearly everyone receives a constant stream of junk mail, often including personal information. Credit card applications are among the most notorious of these mailings. In addition, you probably receive credit card statements, bills, and other important documents. If you're like most people, you simply expect this mail to be there when you open your mailbox, and never give a thought to the possibility that it has been intercepted by thieves.
All that a criminal needs in order to successfully steal your identity are a few of your personal documents. Even just a single credit card application can be enough for the savvy identity thief to charge thousands of dollars in your name using fraudulent accounts. The information needed to steal your identity can easily be found by criminals who get to your mailbox before you. Often, you may not even discover that the envelope is gone for several weeks, if you ever do.
If you find yourself receiving a lot of mail with personal information, there are steps you can take to limit your exposure to identity theft. Many mailing lists have an 'opt-out' feature. In addition, your bank and utility companies may offer online bill-pay so that you can bypass the step of receiving a bill in the mail. Such steps can limit the amount of junk mail you have to throw out, as well as limiting the personal information available to thieves.
Not only should you be cautious about what you're receiving in the mail, but you should also take the necessary steps to protect the box itself. Most mailboxes sold today do not have the best security features. If you're in an area that gets a lot of traffic, or you think someone might be stealing your mail, you might want to consider a locking mailbox for added security. Install extra lighting, and make sure your mailbox is not next to a bush or other convenient hiding spot for criminals who want to go through your mail. A PO Box can be another way to ensure that your personal information isn't in your mailbox, just waiting for the first thief to walk by.
Many people forget that home security extends all the way to the street, where their mailbox is sitting. The next time you check the mail, stop to think about the security of your mailbox and just how much personal information comes with the mail you've just received.

Bodyguards provide both personal and home security and have protected some of the world's most influential people for hundreds of years. Well-known bodyguard organizations, both real and fictitious, have figured heavily in the media because they are connected to politicians, celebrities, and other famous names. Here are a few of the most famous bodyguard organizations throughout the world:
The Praetorian Guard: Charged with protecting the Emperors of Rome, their reign lasted hundreds of years before Emperor Constantine ended their role in 300 AD because they had become known as corrupt and ruthless.
US Secret Service: The most well-known role of these bodyguards is protecting the President of the United States, along with other notable government officials and their families. Originally formed with the goal of stopping counterfeiting, their major role became protecting the President following President McKinley's 1901 assassination.
Swiss Guards: Like the US Secret Service, the Swiss Guard is responsible for protecting government officials. The Swiss Guard was founded in 1480 by King Louis XI, and has guarded the European courts, the Pope, and important Vatican officials for hundreds of years.
Diplomatic Protection Departments: In the UK, the Diplomatic Protection units are each responsible for watching over one specific person, such as the Prime Minister or a member of the Royal family. Royalty departments guard the royal buildings, providing home security for the Royal family.
Screen International Security Services: Founded by Avi Korein, who began his career as a bouncer, this organization provides security for some of the most well-known figures in Hollywood, such as Angelina Jolie, Tom Cruise, and Will Smith.
Mr T.- Mr. T is one of the most widely recognized bodyguard-celebrities. He once worked as a bodyguard for Michael Jackson, Bruce Lee, Muhammad Ali, and Diana Ross, among other well-known celebrities.
Many people think that bodyguards lead a dramatic, exciting lifestyle, but most bodyguards don't see a lot of action while on duty. Their day-to-day duties may involve planning safe travel routes, searching rooms before their client enters, conducting background checks, and escorting their client from place to place.
Many people pay a lot of money for a professional bodyguard to protect their family and provide increased home security. Hiring a professional security guard is meant to add another level of protection between those being protected and the criminals who might want to harm them. Most often, bodyguards are hired for high-profile people, who are more likely to receive security threats such as an attempted assassination, kidnapping, or stalking. Bodyguards can be hired from a private security agency or security force; political figures often have a designated military unit to protect them.
In most areas of the world, the bodyguard can be armed, although in some areas no lethal weapons may be used. In this case, the bodyguard can protect the client with pepper sprays, stun guns, TASER devices, and similar defense products. By themselves, bodyguards are a very effective preventive security measure, although they are able to work much more efficiently when there are other security measures in place.

In the modern world, you can fall victim to crime everywhere you go, from the mall to your school and yes, even at home. Although it's impossible to completely eliminate the risk of crime from your daily life, a few simple steps can dramatically decrease your chance of becoming a victim of rape, assault, theft, and dozens of other possible crimes. The following checklist can help you measure how well you are protecting your personal safety.
In the Home - Do you routinely lock your doors and windows, even when you are at home during the day? Have you gone a step further by protecting them with audible alarms? Statistics show that most criminals enter through a door or window that has been left unlocked.
Are you careful who you let in the door? Do you ask for photo ID when letting a repairman in? Do you check the references of those who work in or around your house? Are you present when repairmen enter your home, or do you allow them to come inside and have free reign of your home while you're away at work?
Do you keep a list of emergency numbers near your phone? Do your children know who to call in case of an emergency? Do you even know where the local police station is located? Far too many people simply don't know where to turn if they need emergency assistance.
Fire Safety - In addition to general home security practices, are you doing enough to protect your safety in case of a fire in the home? Do you have an emergency escape plan for fires and natural disasters? Do you keep a fire extinguisher in the kitchen and know how to use it? Are all matches and lighters secured out of the reach of children? Are the batteries in your smoke alarms checked regularly?
In Your Community - Maintaining good communications with your neighbors is one of the most effective ways to reduce the chance of home invasions and other property crimes in the neighborhood. Far too often, homeowners never speak to those living next to them. Do you talk to your neighbors at least every few weeks? Have you talked about watching each other's property? Do you agree to collect each other's mail and newspapers during vacations?
Does your neighborhood have an active Neighborhood Watch program? This program is a formalized agreement to keep an eye on activities in the area and report any suspicious behaviors to the police. Communities with active Neighborhood Watch programs post street signs advising would-be criminals of this fact.
Your Daily Routine - Do you ever carry more tan $250 in cash in your wallet? Do you use the ATM only in a secure area during the day, or do you sometimes use the ATM after dark or in out-of-the way places?
Do you carry a cell phone? What about a stun gun, a personal alarm, or a canister of pepper spray? Is your personal safety ever even a consideration when you're out jogging, shopping, or running errands? Do you have a self defense plan for the "what if" scenario?
Your Car - Do you make a point to lock your car doors and roll up the windows wherever you park, even if you'll just be there for a minute? Do you make an effort to park in well-lit parking lots, and avoid walking to your car alone at night?
Often, our ordinary daily routines make us a target for criminal activity. Following these simple rules of personal safety can dramatically decrease the possibility of becoming a crime victim.

*********************** ARTICLE START ***********************
Most families living in America today are aware of the threat of violence. In fact, it's hard to turn on the news these days without hearing about a recent violent crime. Cases of assault, rape, and murder make the headlines from coast to coast. On the other hand, many people think that such cases are overblown, and the risk of becoming the victim of a violent crime is actually lower than the media would have us believe. Just how common is violent crime in America today?
There are four major offenses considered to be violent crimes. These include murder, rape, robbery, and aggravated assault. In addition to these four categories of violent crimes, there are also other crimes, such as robbery, that may turn violent. The broad definition of a violent crime is any crime that uses violence or a threat of violence.
In 2004, there were nearly 1,400,000 serious violent crimes reported in the United States alone. Among violent crimes, aggravated assault is the most common, at 62 percent of all reported violent crimes. Although this statistic has declined in recent years, it still means over 850,000 aggravated assaults every year. Assaults happen in nearly every city across the country, in rural and urban areas and even in areas of the city that are generally considered safe. The point is, you can never be sure that such a crime will never happen to you.
Robbery is the second most common violent crime, at over 29 percent of the total. Over 400,000 robberies, defined as the taking of personal property by the use of violence or the threat of violence, are reported in the US each year. In addition to robberies in which a person is attacked on the street, there are also home invasions and other property crimes that may turn violent.
Rape and sexual assault represent 6 percent, or about 94,000 crimes per year. Approximately 6 of every 100 women living in the United States will be a victim of forcible rape or sexual assault. This is the only violent crime in which females are the primary victims. For all other violent crimes, men disproportionately fall victim to attack. Even physically strong, young men can fall victims to violent crime - your appearance, no longer how confident, is not enough to keep you safe.
Murder accounts for approximately 1 percent of all reported violent crimes in a given year. Although this might seem like an insignificant percentage, this translates to about 15,000 murders each year, more than enough to worry anyone. The fact that murder is statistically rare won't be much of a comfort to the family of someone who has been murdered – all the more reason to protect your family members from the possibility.
Now that you are aware of these statistics, what can you do to protect yourself from becoming one? As the realization that no one is immune from such violence sinks in, more and more people are turning to self defense devices as a way to protect themselves and their family members. If you should find yourself in a potentially violent situation, wouldn't you want to be able to protect yourself?

Although violent crimes are the ones to make the news, property crimes actually make up the majority of all crimes, often by a large margin. Homes and businesses are equally susceptible to the attention of thieves. Most residential burglaries happen during daylight hours, when most people are away at work. Most busineses are hit by burglars at night, when no one is around to catch them. Among many people's greatest fears is the possibility of being at home while a burglar is breaking in, but an overwhelming number of them happen while you're away.
There are few things more profoundly violating than arriving at your home or business and discovering that a window has been smashed and the thieves have made off with your belongings. The victims of such crimes feel overwhelming anger and outrage, not to mention loss of perceived safety. In this frame of mind, victims often discover that they can't list everything that is missing, leaving them unable to receive full compensation from their insurance claim and compounding their sense of loss.
Although you're probably most worried about expensive belongings, jewelry, and other high-value possessions, there are cases in which the entire contents of the house or business have been taken. There are horror stories of people who leave on vacation, returning to a completely empty home. Can you imagine walking in to see that everything you own is gone?
Even if you don't think that you have anything worth stealing, chances are that thieves feel differently. No matter how many expensive things you own, make a list of your belongings. This inventory is invaluable when it comes to recovery after a fire, theft, or other loss. Trying to figure out what's gone is a daunting task, and one you probably won't want to deal with after someone has burglarized your home or office.
Having all of your information in an inventory will alleviate the stress you'll surely feel after a break-in. You won't be reliving the experience over and over while you're trying to remember what the thieves stole. It also makes it much easier to replace your belongings quickly by allowing you to file the insurance claim faster.
Many people overlook this important step, thinking that they know all of their belongings well enough to make a list easily. Can you think of everything currently in your purse or wallet? No? Then how easy do you think it would actually be to list everything that's in your house right now? Do you know the brand name of your TV, or the date you bought your stereo? When writing out your inventory, photos help. Model names and serial numbers are even better.
An inventory won't ease the outrage you feel after being burglarized, but it can ease the stress of the process. Having a detailed inventory can help you prove your losses to get what you deserve from the insurance company. It takes just a few hours to compile a list of your possessions, and this step can save you a lot of heartache later on.

In today's dangerous world, is there anything more important than protecting yourself and your family from attack? Whether walking in a dark parking lot or fighting off an intruder, a stun gun is one of the best ways to protect yourself from crime. However, people often forget how important it is to have a stun gun at the ready when they need it. How scary would it be to pull out your stun gun to ward off a threat, only to find out that it's out of batteries?
Eliminate your worry about whether the stun gun will perform when it's needed by choosing a rechargeable stun gun. Incorporating the latest and greatest in stun gun technology, these devices remove the need for replacing the batteries. Because it's often difficult to remember when your stun gun's batteries were last changed, and how much power they might have left, a rechargeable stun gun provides you with the peace of mind that it will always be ready to defend you in your time of need.
A rechargeable stun gun offers the same features found on a regular stun gun, such as a safety switch and built-in personal alarm. Rechargeable stun guns are offered by many of the top names in the personal protection industry, and offer all of the power and voltage of a regular stun gun. The ability to recharge the gun should be considered a highly desirable feature when you are comparing the available stun devices on the market today.
In addition to giving you peace of mind, opting for a rechargeable stun gun is also a cost-saving measure. Instead of replacing the standard 9 volt alkaline battery, your rechargeable stun gun plugs right into the wall. If used frequently, a stun gun can go through plenty of batteries to make a rechargeable unit well worth the extra cost. When your stun gun is low on power, just plug it into the charger for a couple of hours. Most rechargeable units can be recharged up to 800 times, more than a lifetime of use. In a pinch, a regular 9 volt alkaline battery can also be used in these devices. Although they are a little more expensive than other stun devices, a rechargeable stun gun can be well worth it when you compare the long-term costs. These convenient devices ensure that your stun gun will always have power, no matter where you are!
It is often advised that firing "warning shots" with your stun gun will scare off many potential attackers. The electric current flowing from probe to probe, as well as the crackling noise made by the electricity, is certainly intimidating. If you get in the habit of using your stun gun for this purpose, you'll find the batteries waning more frequently. Not to worry, though. With a rechargeable stun gun, you can feel free to use your stun gun as many times as necessary.
Considering the importance of reliability when it comes to self defense devices, is it any wonder why more and more people are relying on stun guns, and particularly rechargeable models, to protect themselves?

Article Title: Self Defense Philosophy - 3 Circles of Protection

Having an effective self defense strategy means more than preparing yourself with self defense devices or learning fighting techniques. If this is your only preparation, you are setting yourself up for a situation in which you MUST fight off an attacker, because it is too late to avoid the attack. There are many principles behind attack avoidance. One method, the "3 circles of protection," is a crucial addition to your overall self defense strategy. Each of these three circles represents two distinct meanings for your self defense strategy.
With the 3 Circles of Protection method, visualize three circles around yourself. The outermost circle is the community, including such elements as the police and the government, which protect us from threats before we're even aware of the danger. This circle also represents the building or large area in which you are located. While threats may exist in this area, you're probably not aware of them yet, because they are too far away. At this stage, it's up to police officers, security forces, and others to catch the threat. Still, it's important to be aware of the overall safety level in the area where you are, so that you can be aware of the potential for attack.
The second circle represents your family and friends. These people are close to you, and are likely to warn you of potential threats or try to defend you from attack, if they are nearby at the time. This circle also represents the area within eyeshot of you. If a potential attacker exists in this area, you may be aware of them, but they do not pose an immediate threat to you because they have not yet begun the assault. Still, you should be watching them closely to protect yourself from harm. If this circle does not appear to be safe, your best self defense strategy is to move to another area.
Finally, the smallest circle exists at the center of it all, like the bull's eye on a target. This circle represents yourself. It also represents the area immediately surrounding your body, where an assailant represents an immediate threat that must be stopped quickly. You are your first line of defense. Anything that has passed through the outer circles (the police and your friends and family; also the larger spaces surrounding you) and escaped detection will need to be fought off by you. Once a threat passes through to this inner level, you can no longer live in denial that the police, your spouse, your parents, or your friends will protect you from harm. These "others" only exist in your overall self defense strategy until the threat is in your immediate area.
What does the "3 circles of protection" method mean for you? If you are serious about developing the necessary skills to protect yourself, then it is vital to understand that you are your own last line of defense. In the moment when the attacker has slipped through the outermost two circles, and is standing in front of you, it is up to you, alone, to protect yourself. Prepare yourself for this possibility by carrying a stun gun, pepper spray canister, or anything else you can use to fight off such a threat.

Article Title: How to Start a Neighborhood Crime Watch

Neighborhood Crime Watch groups are formed by neighbors who agree to keep an eye out for suspicious behavior in the local area, and are committed to reporting such activities to the police. Your neighborhood crime watch group can also conduct educational programs and training on such topics as how to make your home security better, or how to stop vandalism in the neighborhood. Each watch group collaborates to determine the direction of its activities.
Such groups have long been recognized for their positive effects within the community, but how do you get a group started? This can seem like a daunting task, especially if you've never met some of your neighbors. Communication is crucial for the long-term success of your program. Regular meetings must be held, either at a home in the neighborhood or in a public building. Many watch groups have elected members to do certain tasks, such as putting together a monthly newsletter. Some groups communicate through letter or fliers, while others have switched to email. In addition to sharing the meeting dates, your neighborhood watch group should also keep updated information on current threats within the neighborhood, such as suspicious people recently spotted prowling around empty homes.
Although it's easy to start forming a group by gathering a small number of people, it's also important for your group to be inclusive. Make sure that the message reaches the entire neighborhood. At the first meeting, it's a good idea to have a "meet and greet" where neighbors can meet each other and share their concerns. Don't forget to invite new neighbors to join your group soon after they move into the neighborhood.
By being part of a neighborhood crime group, you will be better informed of what is going on in your local area. Many law enforcement agencies are more than willing to come speak to such groups, and may even share information on crimes occurring nearby. Often, neighborhood crime watch groups are the first to know about such activities.
From the beginning, it is important to communicate what your group does. Being a part of this group does not require a big time commitment, but rather an agreement to keep your eyes open as you go about your usual activities and report any problems you see. Some groups do have formalized patrols around the neighborhood, although these are not very common. Often, there is a perception that a neighborhood crime watch is a license for vigilante justice. However, crime watch members should not confront any criminals they spot. This is best left for the police. In addition to watching for home invasions and related crimes, there are other activities in which the group can become involved, such as cleaning up the neighborhood to deter vandalism. Your group should establish a list of concerns early in the formation process so that you can focus your attention on matters of concern to the community.
Once your neighborhood watch group has been established, don't forget to put signs in your windows and on neighborhood streets as a visual deterrent. Once criminals find out that you have an active group, they will know that their actions will be watched and reported. These signs, coupled with the actions of group members, can go a long way in keeping suspicious and criminal behavior out of your neighborhood.
