protect your home with security systems

By: Andrea Eldridge

My home is definitely where my heart is. As I build my house into a home, one tile and shingle at a time, I grow more and more inclined to protect my investment of sweat and, sometimes, tears. Home and personal security is definitely an area where technology has advanced in leaps and bounds. This week, I explore some ways to use technology to protect your home, and what you keep in it.

Home Safety Tips #1: Home Surveillance System. Do you ever wonder what happens in your house when you?re not around? Does your dog really stay off the furniture? Do the neighbors swing by to take a dip in your pool? Now you can find out, while also protecting your home from burglary. The X10 Planet Cam is a wireless, weather-resistant video surveillance system that can be set up indoors or out. The basic package is $129.99 and comes with one instant-on camera, a motion sensor, and a video receiver that can receive images up to 100 feet away from the camera. Video is stored on your computer, so you can review or save for later, and you can access your system remotely to see what?s happening at home from anywhere you can get online. Images can be sent to your email or cell phone if motion is detected while you?re away. The site promises easy set up, and you can expand it to meet your home security needs. Now you really can be sure that Billy won?t be throwing any parties while you?re gone.

Home Safety Tips #2: Remotely Control Your House:There?s a high tech upgrade to the old-school method of setting timers on your lights to make it seem like someone?s home when you?re away. The Active Home Automation system, also from X10, allows you to control your home?s interior and exterior lights, appliances, and wall switches from your computer. This gadget is oddly amusing, and will allow you to protect your home from anywhere. Once you install the software on your computer and the wireless controllers on your lights, appliances, or outlets, you can program individually timed events so you never have to come home to a dark house or worry that you left the lights on all day. There is a dawn/dusk feature that will adjust for sunrise and sunset times throughout the year, saving you the hassle of constantly reprogramming your outdoor lights. You can set the system to turn on lights for a random number of minutes when you?re not at home to make it look like someone?s there. The basic system starts at $49.99, but only comes with one ?lamp module?, so you?ll need to expand with additional controllers. Upgrade to the $99.99 package and you?ll be able to remotely control and change your settings from any internet connected device.

Home Safety Tips #3: Back Up Your Data.There was a time when protecting your valuables, records and photos from theft or loss from fire or disaster meant buying a strong fire-proof safe. Now that your priceless family photos and years of painstakingly collected files and data are more likely stored on your home computer, and protecting your home actually means protecting your data! It is important to keep a secure backup that automatically keeps itself up to date. If you have more than one computer in your home, this is best achieved with a network attached storage device. The D-Link Systems ShareCenter 2-Bay Network Storage Unit retails for $99.99. You purchase hard drives separately, so the system can be customized to accommodate the amount of data you need to protect. In addition to backing up all your files, videos, and photos in one place, you can share files over your network, stream media to your PCs, gaming unit, or internet-capable TV, and share with friends and family over the internet. Now you?ll only lose photos you want to be rid of, like that one Jane snuck of you at her last pool party.

Angel Hamilton has undergone a positive transformational healing due to polyamory. She wants to share it with the world.

Can you stand the thought of your partner having sex with another person while you?re still together? Me neither. But I wish I could. Polyamory ? the practice of having multiple intimate relationships at the same time ? has been a topic of interest recently at Confronting Love.

I don?t think this is by accident. I wonder why this previously taboo subject is being brought up more and explored by people who?d have never thought they would have in the past. I think it?s an indicator of the status of love and relationships today. I think our current model ? the ?one? for the rest of your life ? is showing cracks and that people are looking for alternatives.

I love the idea of polyamory. I love that it makes one ask the big questions like what is love? and what are relationships? I?ve just been too conditioned in my attachment issues to be able to practice it. Who knows. Maybe it?s something I could get past. I would certainly never rule it out.

Angel Hamilton lives in Vancouver, BC. She is filming a documentary about polyamory called Poly Sex Confidential. About the ?positive transformational healing? she has gone through because of polyamory. Included in the film will be a landmark case in British Columbia about the province?s 121-year-old ban on polygamy, and the Vancouver Polyamory Conference that followed the closing of the case.

To help with funding for the film she has created a fundraising campaign at indiegogo.com. She?s trying to raise $1000 to rent an editing lab and a camera from a film co-operative society. She took some time to answer a few questions I had for her about polyamory and the documentary.

CL: Have you always believed in polyamory? Or was there a time when your views on monogamous relationships changed?

Angel: I have always felt an attraction to polyamory because of my Mom?s lifestyle with multiple partners and never being married. However, I tried the monogamous relationship for a while and found out that it was not for me. I discovered the prehistory of sexuality from archaeology classes while attending Trent U and wondered about alternatives.

On your fundraising website, you mention you studied the Archaeology of Sexuality. What, exactly, is that?

The study of prehistoric sexuality has become more popular with the book Sex at Dawn: The Prehistoric Origins of Modern Sexuality by Christopher Ryan. While I was at Trent I completed my Honours paper specializing in Sex and Archaeology that I delivered at the 43rd Chacmool Conference in the University of Calgary. It was titled The Fractal Nature of Human Sexuality: Comparison of Classic Maya with New Kingdom Egypt Iconography.

So basically I looked at the multifaceted spectrum of sexual arrangements that existed prior to modern Victorian times.

So basically I looked at the multifaceted spectrum of sexual arrangements that existed prior to modern Victorian times. It was a paper that addressed the need to look at the archaeological record with a holistic outlook that allowed for multiplicity of sexual identities using fractals as a new heuristic device to re-examine and critically think about the past interpretations of sexual identity and relationship.

You also reference ?Ethical Sluts? and how your film will help support them in their right to a polyamorous lifestyle. Your use of the word slut, is it done in good humour? Or is this an actual term in the world of polyamory?

I have read and interviewed both Janet Hardy and Dossie Easton from The Ethical Slut book and was deeply inspired by their words and life. I agree with the authors that the word slut needs to be taken back and used in a more positive way that is empowering rather than degrading and used as a way to control, fearfully, people?s sexuality.

It?s very important to understand that society finds ways to uphold the norms of a society that values marriage over polygamy and there needs to be a re-evaluation of people?s perceptions of polygamy and polyamory. This book is instrumental in regards to that.

Do you think polyamorous relationships will increase as we move ahead? It definitely seems clear that our idea of relationships and marriage today is outdated, what with the high divorce rate and unhappy couples.

I do think that polyamorous relationships ? as characterized by non-exclusivity ? will increase as education and awareness increases about the movement. There is a high divorce rate and people are looking for alternatives. Perhaps relationships that are rooted in a mutual understanding of the love of many will allow for more flexibility and honesty. At least that is my intention in my relationships.

You obviously feel very strongly about the subject (strong enough to create a documentary). What are you hoping to accomplish with this film?

I hope to accomplish a massive education social justice awareness campaign surrounding the polyamory movement and draw attention to the polygamy/polyamory reference case that took place in Vancouver, BC at the BC Supreme Court. It concerned the criminal code and the laws prohibiting polygamy and thus, perhaps, polyamory as well.

I hope to give some insight into how polyamory is a social movement that is growing in popularity and strength everyday that could be instrumental in the transformation of our current society through my own personal journey.

For instance, if you have been suffering from chronic digestive disorders, unexplained aches and pains, severe bouts of acne, or other skin problem, a detox program should definitely be considered. When you detox your body, you actually opt for a complete cleansing process for the system in general and the blood in particular. Detoxification programs are typically a combination of healthy eating, plenty of rest, and certain basic health practices.

Because of the high injury rate in mixed martial arts, the UFC is always looking for reinforcements. Jake Rosholt wants to be one of those guys.

The former NCAA Div. I wrestling champ at Oklahoma State was released by the promotion in 2010. Tonight, he takes on veteran Matt Horwich. Rosholt is 4-1 with a no contest since his departure, but that loss came against Horwich.

"[I take] nothing away from Horwich; he whipped my ass last time," Rosholt recently told MMAjunkie. "But it's going to be a completely different fight. I'm going in with a different mindset, just a different swagger, and I got a lot of confidence right now. I'm fighting good, and it's going to take a hell of a man to stop me."

Rosholt (11-3, 1 NC, 1-2 UFC) wants back in with the major leagues.

"I don't see why not (if) I go out there and put on a good performance," he said. "This would be like six wins in a row against a tough guy ? a guy that's beat me before ? so it's the first hurdle that I've had to jump in my career. It'll be a great test for me and damn sure a big stepping stone to get myself back in the UFC."

The card in Frisco, Tx. airing tonight on HDNet (9 p.m. ET) also includes former UFC heavyweight champ Ricco Rodriguez. This news comes after a wacky 24 hours where Rodriguez pulled out of his original bout. Rodriguez was booked for a 230-pound catchweight fight. The slimmed down Rodriguez, weighing just 227 pounds, watched his opponent come in at 253. Shark Fights found a late replacement in Doug Williams.
