INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. (Apr. 16, 2014) As high-profile, violent crime continues to rise, more and more Hoosiers are turning to security systems in order to feel safe in their own homes.
Indianapolis-based DEFENDER Direct recently installed its one-millionth home security system nationally, weeks ahead of when it had expected.
As a father of three daughters and soon-to-be grandfather, I couldnt imagine one of my children living without a security system, Chief Operating Officer Jim Boyce told FOX59. Its very important to me if I travel, for example, that my wife Cindy has a security system available to her. [It] gives me peace of mind.
Installations in Indianapolis are increasing, Boyce said, especially since an October 2013 north side home invasion and sexual assault shook many families sense of security.
I strongly recommend a security system. Not only for the peace of mind, but the notifications that itll give you that something is not right in your home, he said. Garage doors, for example, have garage door sensors put on. The very unfortunate incident that you mentioned here that happened in Indianapolis, one of several, as I understand it, began with a garage door being left open.
Home security systems can include not only the all-important police notification alarm, but also security cameras inside and outside the home, remote door locks and sensors, motion sensors and control of the entire system through a sophisticated smartphone app, allowing people to make sure their home is protected no matter where they are.
With or without a system, Boyce recommends people help protect their families by taking simple, common sense steps that many often forget about.
First, before opening the front door, make sure you have visual confirmation of who you are letting in, either through a peep hole or nearby window. Second, clear any debris, which can give potential intruders a place to hide, away from first-floor windows. Also, Boyce said its important to lock all doors and windows, even windows that are on the upper levels of a home.
Its not uncommon at all for a customer to be prompted to call us because of an unfortunate event in their neighborhood or perhaps that has happened to them or a loved one.

Home security systems gain popularity with rise in high-profile crime
Cardiff, UK. (PRWEB UK) 16 April 2014
MyLiveGuard has extended its combined Home Automation, Alarm and CCTV solutions platform to take advantage of the market for android-based device sales. The new android-based software module turns an Android TV device into a feature-rich system hub from which home owners can protect and control their home via their smartphone.
The decision to extend MyLiveGuards cloud-centric platform into the Android marketplace was driven by third party research findings indicating that homeowners are more willing to pay for Home Automation if it also delivers Home Security - and more willing to pay for Home Security if its less complicated and more affordable to buy than it is through traditional security channels.
Falling technology costs and the consolidation of the smartphone as a central lifestyle hub mean people have new expectations about the way a whole range of services are delivered and Home Security is no exception, said Mark Naldrett, LiveGuards Sales Director. Running the in-home component of our platform on Android makes the peace of mind of Home Security and the convenience of Home Automation suddenly accessible to a much wider range of homeowners.
Android TV devices are the ideal platform - they give homeowners an affordable window into the outside world via their TV. MyLiveGuard running on the Android TV device makes that window two-way and gives homeowners a portal back into their internal world so that they can better protect the things that are precious to them their home, their kids and their possessions.
An Android TV device enabled with MyLiveGuards solution allows homeowners to use a smartphone to remotely view whats going on inside their home using wireless IP cameras in real-time and no matter where they are in the world.
If the system detects a problem of any sort from wireless sensors (intrusion, smoke, flood etcetera) it makes a voice call to the absent homeowner and even sends video footage of the problem. If the alarm goes unanswered it will then contact specified friends and family in rotation to ensure a rapid response to the situation.
Home owners can also use their smartphones to remotely control lights, heating controls door locks, cat flaps, curtains and much more on a manual or scheduled basis to simulate occupancy when away from home, prepare their property for their return home and manage energy more efficiently.
Its the ultimate Android TV device, concluded Naldrett. Android TV device manufacturers can tap into the hot Home Automation market for extra competitive edge and additional recurring revenue streams while their home owner customers benefit from a device that both entertains and protects them.

MyLiveGuard Adds Home Automation & Home Security Capability to Android TV devices
(PRWEB) April 15, 2014
Consumers have responded extremely well to Do It Yourself (DIY) alarm systems, due primarily to the benefits of wireless technology. Many home security providers now offer a wireless option. However, not all security companies offer DIY and not all that offer DIY systems are actually DIY. For example, unless the system is 100% wireless, with a cellular connection to monitoring, it will not be DIY.
Here are a couple other tips for finding the best DIY alarm systems: 1) Cellular monitoring should come standard dont accept any added fees. 2) Choose a company offering a wide range of wireless equipment, to cover all types of emergencies. Besides burglary, protect for threats like fire, flooding and leaks, freezing temperatures that could burst pipes, carbon monoxide, etc. 3) Since youll be receiving advice over the phone, read the customer reviews to find a company that provides great service. 4) Make sure your security contract stipulates that you own the equipment, so you can take it with you when you move. 5) Make sure the provider wont increase your monthly fee if you add sensors in the future. 6) All alarm systems require electricity to run, so find a system that includes a good back-up battery, lasting at least 24 hours, to get you through power outages. 7) DIY sensors run on batteries, usually lasting as long as 5 years. Look for a system that can notify you if any of the batteries are running low.
Typically you can order a DIY systems online or over the phone, as is the case with Security One. All the components should arrive at your house pre-programmed for wireless communication. The box will include simple instructions, and the Security One will have a support rep standing by to walk you through setup over the phone, if you desire. Also Security One will provide a YouTube video that can be watched providing step by step instructions on how to set up your DIY alarm fast and easy. It will literally be a matter of minutes for you to set up your entire system.
Probably the best part of your DIY home security system is all the money you will save! With a do it yourself alarm system kit you can save hundreds or even thousands of dollars. It's that simple. Save money and time not having to schedule for a technician to come out to your home.
With wireless DIY home alarm equipment, you get flexibility as well as simplicity. For example, you can move your equipment anytime you want. You can also augment the system with new security equipment whenever you need to. Start with the basics and increase your protection and features later, as budget permits, rather than having to buy thousands of dollars worth of security equipment all at once. There should be no additional expense, except for the cost of the sensor.

Do It Yourself Home Security: What You Should Know
East Brunswick, N.J. (PRWEB) April 15, 2014
Nows the time for New Jersey homeowners to get their homes ready for the spring and summer weather, says Gold Medal Service, an award-winning area heating, cooling, plumbing, electrical and drain service company. Gold Medal Service experts have already started their busy spring check-up season, helping homeowners repair any damage caused by winter storms or power outages, and ensuring their air conditioners are in prime condition before the summer heat. The company has started to get a lot of calls for air conditioning maintenance and repair, and stresses that now is the time to get it done before the hot weather arrives.
Your air conditioner is most likely to break down on the hottest day of the year which is also the busiest time for service contractors running calls, so you could face long wait times if you experience an outage, said Mike Agugliaro, Gold Medal Service co-founder. Plus, most manufacturers require routine maintenance on a system to keep the warranty valid.
Not only will Gold Medal Service experts check homeowners air conditioners, but they will also be happy to take a look at plumbing and electrical systems hit hard by snow and severe storms that have plagued New Jersey this winter. Cold temperatures can make pipes prone to freezing and developing leaks, and power outages can have a rough impact on electrical wiring in a home.
If there are any problems in your home, the longer you wait to fix them, the bigger a problem they could become, said Agugliaro. Homeowners dont want to have to pay more money for repair or replacement on pipes or electrical work down the road, so its best to get everything checked out now to make sure small problems do not escalate into bigger issues.
About Gold Medal Service Gold Medal Service, rated A+ by the Better Business Bureau, was founded in New Jersey in 1994 with just two employees. Their vision was to provide homeowners with a reliable and trustworthy home service company customers could count on to fix just about anything that could go wrong in a home. Since then Gold Medal has grown to include more than 120 employees and technicians solving plumbing, heating, cooling, electric, drain, and sewer issues for homeowners across the state of New Jersey. Gold Medal Service is an Angies List Super Service Award recipient. For more information, call 800-853-6060 or visit http://www.goldmedalservice.com.

New Jersey Residents Preparing to Stay Cool in the Summer Heat
As April opened with wind-driven snow and temperatures that still featured wind-chill readings, Minnesotans longingly looked from their windows waiting for the day when ice-covered lakes would open and fresh-water fishing could resume. Its a way of life and in Minnesota sport fishing is a $2.8 billion industry of vital importance to the states economy and well being.
The importance of our states natural resources can be taken for granted. It shouldnt be. As winter releases its long-lasting grip it is time to take stock of the condition of state water bodies and reinforce the need for better stewardship. There is work to do.
The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources has produced findings on the condition of our lakes and rivers that cant be ignored. The DNR has identified bodies of water that are infested with a number of invasive aquatic plants, including nearly 300 lakes with infestations of Eurasian water milfoil. Nearly 200 lakes and rivers are infested with zebra mussels.
The seriousness of invasive aquatic plant species and zebra mussels is often dwarfed by the growing threat of Asian carp that continue to migrant north and pose a threat of reaching northern Minnesota. Pictures of carp jumping into boats grab our attention. The problems related to weeds and mussels that clog lakes and choke off nutrients needed by fish are hidden below the surface.
It is encouraging that some positive signs are coming from St. Paul. Gov. Mark Dayton and the Legislature are crafting a bonding bill that provides badly needed dollars to address the seriousness of many aquatic invasive species.
There is support for $6 million in bonding dollars to assist the Minnesota Aquatic Invasive Species Research Center at the University of Minnesota. The center operates in partnership with the DNR in the effort to combat plant infestations, zebra mussels and the spread of carp. Funding is desperately needed. The bonding dollars would provide upgrades to the centers century-old building and target inadequate water, electrical and heating and cooling systems. With an improved facility, the center expects to add more student researchers tasked with studying invasive aquatic plants. A $3 million bonding proposal would be matched by $3 million in University dollars for a new lab to study problems related to bees.
Our lawmakers need to make sure these projects are not left on the cutting table when the final bonding bill is carved out. They are simply too important to pass over.
Bonding for a $5 million dam repair and carp barrier on the Rum River in Anoka has not been supported by the governor. The dam repair ranks only 42nd on the DNRs priority list. The threat of carp migrating north to Mille Lacs Lake through the Rum River is real and the Anoka barrier is a step to protect the states marquee walleye fishery from a carp infestation. It should not be ignored for long.
It is not only lawmakers who must be good stewards. Everyone who launches a boat needs to do their part to avoid spreading aquatic plants and zebra mussels from lake to lake. And there have been positive results.
The DNR continues to work with local government to train monitors who check boats at launch areas. Conservation officers remain vigilant and fewer violators were issued misdemeanor tickets in 2013 compared to 2012. Watershed district boards and private lake associations are stepping forward. These efforts, coupled with public education, will help slow the spread of invasive aquatic plant species and zebra mussels that are here now.

TJM Innovations, which specializes in environmentally-friendly products, was launched in 2007 with the "GutterStuff," a polyether foam gutter filter.

The product has grown in popularity, said Ted McNamara, chief executive officer, and is now distributed nationally.
"Our season for GutterStuff (starts) in March and it ramps up every month more and more through the end of October and November," he said.
Currently, GutterStuff is fabricated from large blocks of foam at TJM Innovations' manufacturing and distribution facility at 5519 W. Woolworth Ave. in Milwaukee.
