This has happened numerous times in the last 5 years and I’m really getting disgusted. I was thinking of buying some type of surveillance equipment.

My neighbors have called police on me and my family for stupid things. Daily for 2 months police came over. How do I handle it? I thought about surveillance equipment but I’m broke. My lawyer said he can’t fix being bullied by them. Some things they have called police for:
claims I stare at them when I check my mailbox (it’s near their house),
watering trees in my yard, taking out trash to the curb, basically any time I am outside of my house. They lie about calling them names too. I work 6 days per week and I have no time to do these things if I wanted to! We go to court in a few weeks over disorderly conduct which they filed against me for flipping them off after they cursed out me and my kids. The crazy neighbors live 3 houses down, only 3 houses are on this street (new subdivision). Next to my house is an empty lot then one house between mine and the psychos. They pick on me for being divorced and raising my kids alone by choice. I have never encountered them before, I never even knew their names until the police told me last week. They told me they "lived here first" and that they "rule the neighborhood".
What can I do to keep my sanity? I just want to be left alone!

I have a mac. I have gotten an error code a few times in the past 3 weeks. It states something along the lines of this——Your IP address(xxx.xxx.xx.x.x) is in use by xxx.xxx.xx. I checked the IP that was conflicting with my IP and it brought me to a business names the HARRIS CORP. The Harris corp deals with military equipment and data surveillance. I do download, is this just something to let pass by or is someone trying to personally look at my files??????

1.) After retiring, I went to the Social Security office to apply for Social Security. The woman behind the counter asked me for my driver’s license to verify my age. I looked in my pockets and realized I had left my wallet at home. I told the woman that I was very sorry, but I would have to go home and come back later.

The woman said, "Unbutton your shirt." So I opened my shirt revealing my curly silver hair. She said, "That silver hair on your chest is proof enough for me", and she processed my Social Security application.

When I got home, I excitedly told my wife about my experience at the Social Security office.

She said, "You should have dropped your pants… you might have gotten disability, too."

George and John worked together in a Newfie factory and were both laid off. At the unemployment office, George was asked his occupation. "Panty stitcher… I stitch the elastic in ladies’ panties," he replied.
Being unskilled labour, George was given a wage of 0 dollars a week.

John replied, "Diesel fitter", and since this is skilled work he was given 0 dollars a week.

When George found out John was getting 0 dollars a week more than himself, he was furious. He stormed back into the unemployment office and demanded to know why his buddy was getting more.

The clerk explained that panty stitching is unskilled work, whereas diesel fitting was skilled work.

"What skill?!?" yelled George … "I sew the elastic on the panties. John puts them over his head and says, ‘Yep, diesel fitter’".

With the exception of 9/11 because that was an actual terrorist attack and I guess you can’t count these:
Richard Reid, December 2001. A British citizen and self-professed follower of Osama bin Laden, Reid hid explosives inside his shoes before boarding a flight from Paris to Miami and attempted to light the fuse with a match. If detonated, the explosives would have damaged the plane. Reid was caught in the act and apprehended on board the plane by the flight attendants and passengers. FBI officials took Reid into custody after the plane made an emergency landing at Boston’s Logan International Airport.

In 2003, Reid was found guilty on charges of terrorism, and a U.S. federal court sentenced him to life imprisonment.

Jose Padilla, May 2002. U.S. officials arrested Padilla in May 2002 at O’Hare Airport in Chicago as he returned to the United States from Pakistan. He was initially charging as an enemy combatant and for planning to use a "dirty bomb" (an explosive laced with radioactive material) in an attack against America.[5] Prior to his conviction, Padilla brought a case against the federal government claiming that he had been denied the right of habeas corpus (the right of an individual to petition against unlawful imprisonment). In a 5-4 decision, the U.S. Supreme Court found that the case against him had been filed improperly.In 2005, the government indicted Padilla for conspiring with Islamic terrorist groups.

In August 2007, Padilla was found guilty by a civilian jury after a three-month trial. He was later sentenced by the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida to 17 years and four months in prison.

Lackawanna Six, September 2002. When the FBI arrested Sahim Alwan, Yahya Goba, Yasein Taher, Faysal Galab, Shafal Mosed, and Mukhtar al-Bakri, the press dubbed them the "Lackawanna Six," the "Buffalo Six," or the "Buffalo Cell." Five of the six had been born and raised in Lackawanna, New York. These six American citizens of Yemeni descent were arrested for conspiring with terrorist groups. They had stated that they were going to Pakistan to attend a religious training camp, but instead attended an al-Qaeda jihadist camp.

All six pleaded guilty in 2003 to providing support to al-Qaeda. Goba and al-Bakri were sentenced to 10 years in prison, Taher and Mosed to eight years, Alwan to seven and a half years, and Galab to seven years.

Iyman Faris, May 2003. Faris is a naturalized U.S. citizen originally from Kashmir and lived in Columbus, Ohio. He was arrested for conspiring to use blowtorches to collapse the Brooklyn Bridge. The New York City Police Department learned of the plot and increased police surveillance around the bridge. Faced with the additional security, Faris and his superiors decided to cancel the attack.

Faris pleaded guilty to conspiracy and providing material support to al-Qaeda and was later sentenced in federal district court to 20 years, the maximum allowed under his plea agreement.

Virginia Jihad Network, June 2003. In Alexandria, Virginia, 11 men were arrested for weapons counts and for violating the Neutrality Acts, which prohibit U.S. citizens and residents from attacking countries with which the United States is at peace. Four of the 11 men pleaded guilty. Upon further investigation, the remaining seven were indicated on additional charges of conspiring to support terrorist organizations. They were found to have connections with al-Qaeda, the Taliban, and Lashkar-i-Taiba, a terrorist organization that targets the Indian government. The authorities stated that the Virginia men had used paintball games to train and prepare for battle. The group had also acquired surveillance and night vision equipment and wireless video cameras.

Ali al-Timimi, the spiritual leader of the group, was found guilty of soliciting individuals to assault the United States and sentenced to life in prison. Ali Asad Chandia received 15 years for supporting Lashkar-i-Taiba, but maintains his innocence. Randoll Todd Royer, Ibrahim al-Hamdi, Yong Ki Kwon, Khwaja Mahmood Hasan, Muhammed Aatique, and Donald T. Surratt pleaded guilty and were sentenced to prison terms. Masoud Khan, Seifullah Chapman, and Hammad Adur-Raheem were found guilty at trial and later sentenced.

Dhiren Barot, August 2004. Members of a terrorist cell led by Dhiren Barot were arrested for plotting to attack the New York Stock Exchange and other financial institutions in New York, Washington, and Newark, New Jersey. They were later accused of planning attacks in England. The plots included a "memorable black day of terror" that would have included detonating a dirty bomb. A July 2004 police raid on Barot’s house in Pakistan discovered a number of incriminating files on a laptop computer, including instructions for building car bombs.

Dhiren Barot pleaded guilty and was convicted in the United Kingdom for conspiracy to to commit mass murder and sentenced to 40 years. However, in May 2007, his se
James Elshafay and Shahawar Matin Siraj, August 2004. James Elshafay and Shahawar Matin Siraj were arrested for plotting to bomb a subway station near Madison Square Garden in New York City before the Republican National Convention.[20] An undercover detective from New York City Police Department’s Intelligence Division infiltrated the group, providing information to authorities, and later testified against Elshafay and Siraj.[21]

Siraj was convicted and sentenced to 30 years in prison. Elshafay, a U.S. citizen, pleaded guilty and received a lighter, five-year sentence for testifying against his co-conspirator.[22]
Levar Haley Washington, Gregory Vernon Patterson, Hammad Riaz Samana, and Kevin James, August 2005. The members of the group were arrested in Los Angeles and charged with conspiring to attack National Guard facilities, synagogues, and other targets in the Los Angeles area.

Hello, I’m writing a book Called "Subtle Luminosity" (Genre D.C. techno Thriller) about an Ex. DHS employee using his training to unravel a governmental mystery that only him and one other person knew about. this other person who knew has now mysteriously died and its left all on My main Characters shoulders… I need to know as much as I possibly (legally) can about the governments abilities in National Surveillance. Thank you for your cooperation.

Mr. and Mrs. Fenton are retired, and Mrs. Fenton insists her husband go with her to Wal-Mart. He gets so bored with all the shopping trips. He prefers to get in and get out, but Mrs. Fenton loves to browse. One day Mrs. Fenton gets this letter from Wal-Mart:

Dear Mrs. Fenton,

I see on counter surveillance web sites that there are a lot of bug detectors of many different variations. What model/kind do you know of/recommend that would specifically alert the user of somebody nearby wearing a hidden wire on them or audio transmitters? I am looking for a portable device that I can keep in my pockets to to be notified by vibration? Please provide links.
(BTW I am starting out in the private investigator field).
Thanks!

How do you use a webcam as security camera to watch your house, or to just catch those moments that would have been missed cause you didn’t have your camera ready to go?

Federal Courts have ruled on more than one occasion that they are not legally obligated to protect us, so what are police good for?

So if police are not for public protection, what are they doing with tazers, batons, pepper spray, sentinel dogs, Tear gas, surveillance equipment, access to our personal information, handguns, shotguns, military assault rifles, percussion grenades, pain beams (ads), sonic lasers (Lrad), body armor, gas masks, super charged cars, airships, helicopters, armored vehicles, and tanks?

What are they defending?
Ron Burgandy. I have my own firearms and CCW. No one will be raping me.

I have a neighbor who has set up surveillance which points directly onto my property as he records all activity at our driveway and front door.

The police say it is not illegal. And this guy knows the law and just wants me to waste my good money on a lawyer who will do nothing in the end.

I would love to disable his equipment without stepping foot on his property, but have no knowledge on how to do so.

So, I want to waste a bunch of his time as he views endless footage of nothing worth watching but enough for him to stay interested to spend his attention on.

Any ideas how to distract this bully??

Anyone have any ideas or pranks I can set up in my yard.
This man is the definition of a bully. He harassed two other neighbors so relentlessly that they sold their homes and uprooted their families. I have only spoken to him 4 times in 6 years and he only comes to live here from June to September. Our family owned this property for four generations since 1944. Waterfront, we are going nowhere.
Most people have a hobby or play a sport for fun. This guy irritates the living hell out of anyone he can. Please just give me some ideas on how to set him up for worthless video footage that will waste his time. Thank you
Tom C. you are right about ignoring him. That is what I have been doing and this is why I believe he set up four cameras and two spot lights. The actual filming does not get under my skin, although it is weird knowing you are being watched. However, I want to make a mockery of his surveillance.
Prior to him installing his surveillance system: I bought a fence. He saw me out there measuring. The next day I was slapped with a summons for trespassing on his property. I have a valid certified stamped A2 survey. He has no valid survey. The judge told him his survey is a sketchy sketch and come back in December with a real survey. So, you have to understand that this guy just WANTS to cause trouble. He has 9 other law suits pending. He is rich and told us he would bury us in lawyer fees.

I walked into my roommates room due to fact my internet connect (WIFI) was fading in and out. I was also trying to do math hw that was due at mid night next day. No problem, Then i thought might be router missing up and then same problem found out. I found out my roommate installed surveillance equipment without my knowledge in his room. I was just going to unplug his router so i could get my homework done. We both have separate leases with apartments but shared resources ……water…electric..etc. I think the only reason he filed the charges due to him wanting to move out day 1. I think he never wanted to move here in first place.
Also, forgot to tell you that he has evidence i went in his room. I told him by text message and his D life camera’s took still pictures. I just walked in his room then walked back out shut the door.

with a "flair for thinking on your feet"?

Would you be interested in this job?

London, September 27 (ANI): British security agency MI5 is urging women to apply for 25,000 pounds per year mobile surveillance officer roles.

The unusual step comes at a time when the security services are suggested to be desperately short of women to carry out surveillance operations on the 2,000 terror suspects, being monitored up and down the country.

However, the agency wants that only women who are "competent and careful" drivers, and "capable of using A-Z and Philips Road maps" apply for the post.

"Surveillance plays a vitally important role within the Security Service and is a key investigative resource," the Daily Star quoted the advert posted on the MI5 website as reading.

"Mobile surveillance officers follow targets of national security investigations.

"It is all about observing the people or places, either on foot or by vehicle.

"Due to operational requirements, we particularly welcome applications from women and ethnic minorities," the advertisement said.

The ad specifies that the type of people being recruited must be highly observant with a "flair for thinking on your feet", and an ability to operate specialist equipment.

It warns applicants that they must first pass a 75-day course to test their physical and mental strength. The spy agency is also looking for psychologists, electrical technicians, language specialists, computer experts, and behavioural scientists. (ANI)
Edit: Bear…you in a dress…will not be inconspicuous enough for a spy…! : )

are posted? Things like surveillance equipment schematics,i.e.,"bugs"

he doesn’t even attempt to focus it towards his backyard, it serves no purpose other than to watch our backyard (which is none of his business). Now, I’ve called the police dept. and they said that it’s legal for him to have it on his property (ok, I understand), but to have it pointed to OUR backyard?! wtf. He said it was common courtesy for him to move it and that we should ask him. Thing is, you can’t reason with this man. The last time my mom asked him nicely to move his porta-potty away from our house he attempted to assault my dad and I had to call the police. Unfortunately, they didn’t speak to him. WE are the ones that should have surveillance seeing as he has harassed my little sisters, thrown rocks at my dog and throws his trash to our side. This person, has no job either so he is home all the time. His wife doesn’t seem to care about what he does. Now, we have NEVER disrespected his wife or harassed his three kids, he’s acting out because when they moved in, we wouldn’t do what he told us to do (cut off our fruit trees to plant palm trees, throw all of my dad’s equipment away, etc.).

I need to hire some surveillance equipment from a homeland security supply company for an assessment task in a course I am studying. I am keen to follow my lecturers advice on industry ethics and wish to be prudent with my choice. I have been offered a range of devices and want to know if they comply with medical and health physics standards and comply with state and federal law. Can anyone please guide me on this?
