I don't know of something exactly like that. But most home monitoring things will detect sound and motion and then notify you usually via an app. For example - WiFi Home Sensors: Spotter- Postscapes I've never used them to cannot say how good they are. But if you are never far away from your phones it may be ideal? Does it have to be placed outside? Ff you attach it to the inside of the door they meow at it should pick them up.

Out of them I would go with the one with two HDMI ports. But personally I find Samsung panels to be too far too vibrant and very footery to get the colour to a realistic level. I have this one - ASUS VE247H 24 inch LED Widescreen Full HD 1080p Support with HDMI 2ms Response Time Splendid? Video Intelligence Technology: Amazon.co.uk: Computers & Accessories I can fully recommend it. Very easy to adjust the colour settings and great on it's default setting.

Safer Internet Day - 2GB Free Google Drive Storage
arwen replied to Zoom7000's topic in General Chat
Thanks for the heads up! My extra 10GB runs out this year so this 2GB will help me keep using the free Limit :-D -
Size 10 guys RM socks at an RM seminar that I had no choice in going to and that RM were well aware that females would be there. They didn't understand when I was rather annoyed and insulted that they only brought those socks "as a gift to all the hard working ICT Support people". As the for prescription bag of goodies. That is rather cool!

Glad to hear that! If silly EU rules means I shouldn't put it on my bike I will be very upset. It sounds and looks lovely in my opinion, no louder than the stock exhaust as far as I can tell.

Heated grips is something I will be putting on it. Ideally I want to change the exhust to this - Moriwaki one Either polished or black, not sure yet. But as I don't think it is actually legal here in the UK, I'm not sure I will be getting it at all! :-( I fell in love with it when I saw it. First bike I actually sat on and felt comfortable with it. Even though I am still on my tip toes on it!

Yea. Although it is only called the Grom in america for some reason. MSX125 everywhere else.

My Partner has the 1150 Adventure, it is super comfy, although he does have to stop at high kerbs and slopes so I can get on/off it as it is so tall! I will be doing my CBT either this month or next, and picking up one of these little beauties :- Honda MSX125

I have found my Nexus "fits" into most pockets in that the top usually sticks out a bit, but it wont fall out. The alternative is to wear guys jeans, cause for some silly reason pockets on guys jeans are much bigger than on most women's jeans... (Grr!)

Nexus 5 on a 30 day rolling contact with Virgin - unlimited everything for £16.50 per month. Only upgraded from my Nexus 4 as I got a 5 for free due to a cock up with my partners insurance (he also has a Nexus 5) Love both the Nexus 4 and 5. The variation in pricing with Virgin contracts is depending on when you joined them. I joined around 1.5 years ago.

Thanks for the recipes The chilli sounds like a good idea, not had that in a while! And I guess I should swap out my normal pasta for wholewheat, I do love my pasta.

So, for the first time in my life I am joining in on the healthy eating to lose weight thing... My weight has been slowly creeping up over the past year and a half, I've put on 15kg (2.3 stone) in that time . Which granted, isn't that much to some. But since I am short that has moved me from inside the "healthy weight" bmi to the "obese" section, which has scared me! Also I'm at the point where I will need to buy a whole new wardrobe of clothes which I cannot afford! So time to lose it. Not doing very much exercise just now as my ankle has been playing up again, but went to the doctors last week and have now been referred to physio for it. Basically I am just counting calories just now. I like my food and tend to eat reasonable healthy anyway. We do lack portion control in our house though which is the main issue I think! Does anyone have any tips for some tasty low calorie dinners? Breakfast and lunch I can do lots of things on low calories, but I am really struggling with finding nice dinners that are not really high in calories. Everywhere seems to suggest omelettes, which I cannot eat since eggs make me ill. Eggs in things are fine though (weird, I know).

Breach of my data protection
arwen replied to Wubbalubbadub's topic in Data Protection & Information Handling
Point out to them that they have breached the data protection. My guess is their staff are not properly trained, and didn't see the issue. Either that or they need reminded of it. Go in again in a few weeks time and have a wander around the desks, see if you can see anything that would breach data protection. If yes then report them. -
In all secondary schools I have been at (including the one I went to as a teenager) it was 2:2:2 Times were something around - 8:50-9:00 = Registration 9:00-9:55 = Period 1 10:00-10:45 = Period 2 10:45-11:00 = Break 11:00-11:55 = Period 3 12:00-12:50 = Period 4 12:50-13:40 = Lunch 13:40-14:40 = Period 5 14:45-15:30 = Period 6 I never realised that so many secondary school finish up earlier than 15:30 !

I've been playing in since beta and still enjoy it. It is no more repetitive than any other MMO and much less so than WoW in my opinion. There are some major changes coming in the next few months, with an entire rework of the veteran levels. things have been changing over the past few months too to make it less of a grind. If you like a story rich game with some multi player action (both playing with and against) then it is very good. If all you want from an MMO is to beat other people up, then it is not for you. You get much more XP from questing than you do at PvP.

I can't help but wonder why you want to overclock... Fair enough if you had a mediocre system, but by the sounds of it your rig should play most things perfectly find the way it is. Why reduce the life span of your components for only bragging rights/high stats?

Grandmother is very scary when she is upset... Even scarier than father!

Hope you all have fun there! I never get a chance to go to BETT... :-(

Yes and no for me. It depends on the surface and the mouse itself. My work desk is rather shiny, and all the mice I have tried make a horrible scratchy noise on it, so I use a mouse mat at work. At home, normally I do not use one.

In all my moving around I have learned one simple, but very important thing when moving. Remember to eat and get everyone else to as well. Most people get rather irritable when they are hungry, it is all to easy to just say "right, one more box then I'll have a rest". Not getting irritated by things means less arguments and a much better atmosphere while moving. If you are staying in the new house the first night, then build the beds first. Things like building tables and filling up wardrobes and bookcases can be done any time. Personally I prefer to dump all my boxes in one room and get as much furniture in the correct rooms first time. Boxes are much easier to move around, and stack on furniture once it is in place. Keeping the kids occupied is key I would imagine, so letting them help with unpacking their own boxes maybe a box at a time in their own room?

It is because they do not receive the award untill easter/summmer 2015. THe whole thing is rather odd, the people on the list know about it for a month or so at least before it is published. But they are not allowed to tell anyone.

I've been a prime member for the past 2.5 years without any issue. Only had 2 or 3 things not appear the next day, and Amazon refunded them quickly. As Joanne says, if you order from Amazon a lot then it pays for it's self. This year we done about 80% of our Christmas shopping using Amazon Prime

Just learn to get over your irrational fear of them. The vast majority of native wild spider in the UK will not do you any harm what so ever. Unless you like all sorts of other bugs in your house, spiders are great pest deterrents and you are letting nature take its course rather than killing one of the top predators of the "insect" world. Learn about them and you will find them fascinating creatures.

If they are adamant that they want you/some other school person to take over the photographing, then there are plenty of collages and Unis doing night courses that teach you to become a better photographer. If I was in your position I would price up some decent kit (doesn't have to be too fancy, and ideally a brand that the lenses are plentiful) and factor in the cost of a course, plus what hourly/event rate would be reasonable if the photograph taking is for after school events.
