Posted by Taniqua Pino on Thu,Mar 05,2015 @ 01:20 PM


Wireless home security
is the way to go if your home is not pre-wired for home security and you need an alarm. When looking at wireless options, make sure to do your homework before purchasing a do-it-yourself home security kit that boasts fast and simple installations at a discounted price. The thought of grabbing one on the way home from work and installing it before you sit down to dinner sounds pretty good. Especially if you just had a break-in. However, feedback from our customers tells us there is more to think about when considering a DIY security system and hiring a professional is hands down the better option.

ADT Pulse Cameras: Five Ways You are Protected When You Are Not Home

Posted by Taniqua Pino on Thu,Feb 12,2015 @ 03:51 PM

ADT Pulse Cameras are your secret weapon against crime when you leave home. You can't be at home to protect your belongings and loved ones 24 hours a day. Even if you passionately uphold the 2nd amendment and are amply qualified to protect your family when you are around, at some point you will have to leave your home. Here's five ways your camera system helps you feel secure that things are taken care of when you are out.

 

Use ADT Pulse Cameras to Assure Everything is OK

Cameras are generally installed to catch things happening. Things like shady people casing the neighborhood or a burglary in progress. But it is comforting to know that nothing out of the ordinary is happening. With remote access, your home's activity or non-activity is accessible at any hour and from anywhere. Go ahead and verify that the kids are doing home work and not having a food fight or that Fido is vigilantly standing watch. It's the next best thing to being at home, when you can't be at home.

The holidays are over and it's the new year in the the city of Sacramento. To start the year off right, there are many fun and exciting events to enjoy. As always Sacramento has things going on for singles, couples and families as well. Like the I Hate Children Children's Show that is happening January 10th at Laughs Unlimited, where both you and the entire family will enjoy some laughs and according to sacramento365.com "Magician Paul Nathan, winner of Best Children's Show at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, combines dry humor with tricks that keep kids entranced and parents smiling." Sounds like a winner to me! Now, for something that everyone with or without children can rave about... The Shen Yun Performing Arts! Now I have seen the ads, billboards and commercials for this event but haven't had the pleasure of attending one. However, I have heard that it is spectacular! And once again, according to sacramento365.com, "Shen Yun takes you on an extraordinary journey to the lost land of the ancient Middle Kingdom." Very intriguing! This event will take place January 13th and 14th at the Community Center Theater.
