Too many companies are punting climate action until 2030 and beyond. That’s why we co-founded Climate Neutral, a non-profit that has helped hundreds of businesses become verifiably carbon neutral now. The water-resistant materials are nice in the bathroom, although sometimes a few things will fall out when we use the hook. On the exterior there is a large handle, which we’ve found to be useful for grabbing the pouch out of your pack (duh). We did notice that this handle is a bit larger and easier to grab than the one on the Tech Pouch, which we like. Near the edge of the zipper there are also some nylon loops that you can grab onto as you’re unzipping it.

The Peak Design Wash Pouch is an innovative toiletry pouch with superior organization that actually works. That said, it works best if you can truly fill it to capacity—as it doesn’t compress—and we’ve had some issues with the attached hook. If you generally carry less stuff or want to opt for something a little bit more flexible and malleable in your pack, you can get away with a smaller pouch. Something like a DAKA pouch might suit you better (we particularly like these for small amounts of toiletries because they’re very water resistant).

Brown added that no intellectual property rights of "The Brady Brunch" were included in the sale but that Trahan, the home's new owner, was a big "Brady Brunch" fan who also happened to be a collector of architecturally interesting homes. Aside from Trahan, other interested parties who had come to see the house included potential buyers who wanted to turn the property into a rental home. The single-family house, located in Los Angeles' Studio City neighborhood, dates back to 1959 and was rebuilt by the HGTV network.

In a battle between celebrities and reality TV for the ‘Brady Bunch’ house, TV won — at twice asking price

The home was listed by the network on May 24, and it's been restored to the full glory of its television days—with a few new features and a lot more square footage. Originally built in 1959 with Late Modernist architecture, the house was used for exterior shots throughout the show’s five-season run from 1969 to 1974, followed by decades of syndication, cementing the mixed family of eight in pop culture. The building would become what is known as the second-most photographed home in America, behind the White House. For a TV show titled A Very Brady Renovation, the network renovated the interiors to look exactly like the Brady home, with actors from the series, including all six Brady children, assisting with the work. These were extensive, as the Studio City house was single-storey, while the Brady home had two floors.

Pulling double duty, The Fords also created the family room, concentrating on the ‘70s-style wood paneling and plaid-patterned daybeds. Knight and Plumb stepped in when it was time to search for additional furnishing, like the chairs. The final detail was contributed by Plumb, who painted her own versions of the street scenes that were seen on the show. In the second episode, “Here’s the Story,” Hidden Potential host Jasmine Roth worked closely with Barry Williams (Greg Brady) to create Mike’s Den from three existing spaces—living room, hallway, and kitchen. The actor fully immersed himself in the process, helping with demo, construction, and furnishing, including updating a donated drafting table.

This groovy design was fun for HGTV's designers to replicate with its bright and cheerful colors. Wood paneling and furniture was extremely popular during the era of "The Brady Bunch," and a lot of it was installed in the house for the final reveal. Wood paneling has made a comeback in today's homes, but with different hues and stains for a gentler look.

The Brady Bunch is about a blended Los Angeles family that consists of six children. The Brady Bunch first aired on September 26, 1969, and ran until March 8, 1974. It was based on a blended family with Carol Martin Brady having three girls, and Mike Brady having three sons. The family also had a live-in maid named Alice Nelson, whose character was a major part of the show’s success and appeal. Notable cameos during the show’s run included Davy Jones, Don Drysdale, Jim Backus (Mr. Howell), Joe Namath, Don Ho, Vincent Price, Marion Ross, Ken Berry, Wes Parker, and Desi Arnaz Jr. Actress Maureen McCormick—who played oldest sister, Marcia Brady—shared that she would have loved to have bought the house for herself.

What The Brady Bunch House Looks Like Now After Renovation

Mike Lookinland (Bobby Brady) joined them for a bit to help build the home's two-sided fireplace. After spending the summer on the market, the Studio City property just closed escrow. Historic-home enthusiast Tina Trahan, whose husband, Chris Albrecht, was once chief executive of HBO, scooped up the sitcom gem for $3.2 million. Eklund|Gomes real estate agents Marcy Roth and Fredrik Eklund represented Trahan in the purchase. A portion of the proceeds from the sale will “help provide up to 250,000 meals for Turn Up! Fight Hunger, an initiative that aims to helps kids living with hunger in the U.S. through No Kid Hungry,” the Warner Bros.

He struggled with drug use, and it was during this time that he contracted HIV, as he revealed in 2021. From 1984 to 1992, Danny Pintauro starred alongside Tony Danza in the hit show Who's the Boss?. Pintauro played Jonathan Bower for all eight seasons, then decided to pursue a life out of the spotlight. Over the years, the former child star — who went on to study at Stanford University — has reflected on his rocky experience with fame, namely when he was forced to come out by The National Enquirer in 1997.

Mike's Den

The teaser images and video shared by HGTV and the show's stars didn't let viewers down. Its 90-minute premiere, on September 9, showcased the start of the home's renovation, and it's ridiculously spot-on—down to the seesaw in the backyard and the horse statue in the entryway. The iconic floating staircase is begging to be the backdrop of your next family photo. In 2018, HGTV looked to meld the two realities and bought the house at Dilling St. for nearly double the original asking price.

The network spent an additional $1.9 million to re-create the TV home where America came to know Mike, Carol, Greg, Marcia, Peter, Jan, Bobby and Cindy Brady. HGTV even added a second story to accommodate all the rooms that were seen in the show. As to why HGTV accepted an offer more than $2 million below asking (and $300,000 shy of what it paid in 2018), Compass’ Danny Brown, the listing agent on the property, told The Times in an email, “This is a one of kind property which was impossible to comp. This is not a home anyone would ever live in.” Savvy investors, he said, understand that laws governing short-term rentals are “nuanced and restrictive,” limiting the value of the property for that use. The iconic Brady Bunch house has gone on sale in Studio City, Calif., for more than $5 million.

Eve Plumb, who played Jan Brady on the 70s TV show, helped re-create Alice's bedroom. Dubbed the most epic home renovation ever (besides your own, of course), the revamp of a 1959 Studio City home into a phantasmagoric delight for “Brady Bunch” superfans is complete. However, the inside of the home looked nothing like the rooms seen on the show. That’s because scenes that let viewers into the Brady residence were filmed on sets at Paramount Studios in Hollywood on Soundstage 5. The home is more than 5,000 square feet and sits on a 12,000-square-foot lot with citrus trees.

During the process of A Very Brady Renovation, designers more than doubled the size of the home, from 2,500 square feet to 5,500. Now, according to the listing, there are five bedrooms and five bathrooms which have been "meticulously restored." The network documented the process on “A Very Brady Renovation,” which featured the six actors who played the Brady children.

— and HGTV’s bold move to dramatically renovate it into the ultimate Brady enthusiast’s abode ensured that would not be the case. Located in Studio City, California, the sprawling five-bedroom, five-bath residence hit the market with an original asking price of $5.5 million, or more money than Johnny Bravo could have ever imagined making. The Brady's kitchen was classic 1970s all the way with orange countertops and green cabinets.

He said the team eventually came up with the home value by basing their estimate on the values of the land the property stood on and the structure of the house itself. Lizzie McGuire's pesky younger brother Matt was played by Jake Thomas, who followed up his early aughts stint on Disney Channel with several guest appearances on episodes of ER, CSI, The Secret Life of the American Teenager and more. He nabbed a recurring role on Cory in the House, another Disney series, which ran from 2007 to 2008.

In more recent times, swimming has evolved into a competitive sport, with the first indoor swimming pools appearing in England in the 19th century. The inclusion of swimming in the Olympics in 1896 marked a significant milestone, though initially only males were allowed to compete. It wasn’t until 1912 that women were granted the opportunity to showcase their aquatic skills on the world stage.

We continued to play with different levels and materials—and the result is a backyard unlike any other we have ever designed before. When we designed “The Caspian,” timelessness and simplicity were at the core of our concept. We wanted to create a design with the idea that you don’t need to have flashy features to create a backyard that is not only functional but that’s also an amazing getaway.

The end result is a transformation that is simplistic in design, but each feature stands out as a statement. The lot is 20,000 square feet—a huge exterior that we took full advantage of. By making each feature oversized, we made a bold statement with a minimal design.

The project’s timeline remains undisclosed, yet the University City District asserts it will serve as a beacon for Philadelphia’s future beyond 2026. Anticipating a surge of visitors for the U.S. semiquincentennial, the FIFA World Cup, and the MLB All-Star Game, Philadelphia braces for a transformative era. Spanning the area between Chestnut and Market Streets along Schuylkill Avenue, the West Philly Waterfront is envisioned to encompass features like a beach, a slide, a public pool, and an entertainment venue. UCD’s proposal emphasizes practicality, with plans for swimming classes, lifeguard training, and swim meets complemented by natural landscaping and shaded areas for comfort during warmer months. The West Philly Waterfront project envisions features like a beach, a slide, a public pool, and an entertainment venue. The history of swimming stretches back centuries, with civilizations like the Romans, Assyrians, and Greeks recognizing its importance for both recreation and military training.

Bergheiser draws parallels to past successes such as The Porch at 30th Street, envisioning the West Philly Waterfront as a catalyst for urban renewal. Through innovative design and inclusive programming, the project seeks to revitalize the area while stimulating economic activity in the surrounding vicinity. One of the most iconic feats in swimming history occurred in 1875 when merchant navy captain Matthew Webb became the first person to swim across the English Channel. His grueling journey against tidal currents lasted over 21 hours, setting a precedent for future swimmers seeking to conquer the channel.

Another benefit of owning the security equipment is that you can source extra sensors (and other options) from commercial retailers, rather than having to buy direct from the company. If you own your home, and are planning to stay awhile, you may want to choose a more permanent solution with a lower upfront cost but longer contractual obligations. If you’re renting (or are a homeowner but plan to move in the near future) consider going with a company that has a higher upfront cost, but that gives you ownership of the equipment. This way, you’ll see lower monthly costs and the benefit of being able to take the equipment with you when you move. Security systems that aren’t linked to professional monitoring centers are referred to as non-monitored or self-monitored systems.

After signing up for Ring Protect Pro, you’ll get an email from our dedicated Permits Team so you can have everything you need to apply for your permit. In some cases, our team will handle the entire permitting process, but for others, we’ll walk you through every step to help you get your permit as quickly as possible.

We will give a nod to Arlo’s interesting all-in-one sensor that detects a whole assortment of household ills, which could save you some money if you're using an Arlo system.

The WiZ bulb also has a clever Vacation Mode, which turns it (and, if you like, other WiZ bulbs in your home) on and off randomly to mimic the effect of someone being at home when you’re actually not. This affordable smart bulb provides bright light, an excellent color range, and an array of features, including remote control, scheduling, and timers. With the paid subscription, it can also distinguish between people, animals, vehicles, packages, and general motion.

But we also like Vivint’s über smart system, which has the most advanced and innovative equipment on the market. And we can’t exclude the ever-popular ADT, whose years of experience makes it a go-to for so many. Ring Power Packs can also be used to provide backup power to your eero 6 Extenders, which will keep your expanded wifi network up if you lose power. From the initial concept to the final product, privacy, security, and user control are at the core of the decisions we make at Ring.

Cost and contracts

Yes, you’re paying less with the self-monitoring plan, but you’re also doing much more. If you’re looking for professional monitoring, Abode does offer it with its Pro plan, which also includes cellular backup. It will cost $25 per month, which isn’t exactly friendly for the budget conscious but saves you significant money compared to the most expensive plan. I first started testing smart-home devices more than 20 years ago, when the only smart-home devices were X10.

You can customize this versatile system with a variety of sensors and it's compatible with all of Ring’s video doorbells, cameras, and lighting devices. It also has a built-in Eero 6 router that you can pair with satellite nodes to blanket homes of all sizes in Wi-Fi 6 goodness. Look at the overall costs of the different systems and options, add it up, and compare the costs between the various security companies you’re considering.

Many of the various accessories, such as the contact and motion sensors, come with strong, two-sided adhesive, so you don’t need to drill into walls (and risk losing your security deposit). Also, because many security systems offer month-to-month contracts, you don’t have to worry about being locked into something long term or passing a contract on to the next renter. Make sure to check with your landlord before you invest in a system, in case your lease contains clauses that forbid the use of cameras or other security accessories. At the very least, it’s a good idea to let them know you’re installing a system that could trigger a loud alarm or visits from the police or fire department. The Ring Alarm Pro system is the most comprehensive DIY home security system we’ve tested.

"All severe weather hazards are possible, but hail and damaging winds are the primary threats," the National Weather Service in Des Moines reported. One day after bands of tornadoes swept through western and central Iowa Friday, the National Weather Service is warning of the possibility of strong to severe storms Saturday afternoon through the evening. Insulated and laminated impact windows and doors do wonders for reducing a home’s overall energy consumption, explains Manny Angelo Varas, president and CEO of homebuilder MV Group USA. If you’re replacing windows in a home, take a closer look at triple-glazed windows, also known as triple-pane windows. “These have a much better insulation value, and with the right films, can cut down on not only solar heat gain but UV rays that can damage artwork, fabrics, and finishes,” says Schneeberger.

A tiny home on wheels can be fully customized based on the length and interior arrangement that you desire. Depending on the type of tiny home you’re looking for, costs will vary. For a more affordable option, DIY kits can range from $10,000 to $20,000 for a simple design. According to Rocket Homes, a stationary prefab tiny home can range anywhere from $35,000 to $68,000, while a mobile prefab tiny home averages between $60,000 to $80,000. Custom builds have the largest range, and can start anywhere from $25,000 up to $200,000 and beyond depending on the square footage of your desired tiny home.

For Austin Ehlers, a firefighter in Persia, a city just about 15 minutes away from Minden, the tornado demolished his grandfather’s home. It’s about a 30-mile drive from Omaha, Nebraska, depending on the route taken, according to Google Maps.

NWS Omaha issued 42 tornado warnings during the outbreak, it reported. Chances for showers and storms return Tuesday into Tuesday night, and again late in the week. The severe weather threat is uncertain and will be evaluated in the coming days.

Our team takes the time to understand your lifestyle and needs, so we can help you design a tiny house that is not only functional but also reflects your unique personality. Many older folks find themselves downsizing and moving out to places like Florida and Arizona in their twilight years, and if you’re really looking to downsize in the old west, why not try LuxTiny? Located in Lakeside, Ariz., Luxtiny’s plots are exceptionally affordable and so is the rent. Considering that you can make your own tiny home out of a Home Depot Shed, building onto a $360 plot at LuxTiny’s 41-space village might be just the affordable move for the frugal retiree.

The town was settled in 1875 by German immigrants, according to Travel Iowa. U.S. Rep. Zach Nunn said he was headed to Creston to meet with the Union County Sheriff to tour the community and offer his support. Xayavong said storm damage has been reported as far east as NE 80th Street.

Those in the area are in "a life-threatening situation," NWS said. "Flying debris may be deadly to those caught without shelter. Mobile homes will be destroyed. Considerable damage to homes, businesses, and vehicles is likely and complete destruction is possible." After an evening of strong storms that brought multiple “large and dangerous” tornadoes, heavy rain and sizable hail, most of the system has dissipated. A severe thunderstorm 'capable of producing a tornado' was seen over Drake Stadium and the Knapp Center, according to the National Weather Service.

A newly released study by the Pew Research Center finds that 91% of people who voted for Biden last time and 94% of those who voted for Trump plan to vote for the same person this year. Registered voters who did not cast a ballot in 2020 are almost evenly divided, Pew found. “Although overturning the conviction is very disheartening to many, it stands on firm legal grounds,” Los Angeles-based lawyer Tre Lovell told The Post.

Keep an eye out for community amenities and apartment features that are most important to you. The hotel was renovated from 1990[7] to 1991, at a cost of over $75 million. The renovation work was complicated by the fact that Marriott had sold approximately 100 units in the hotel as condominiums.

The JW Marriott Essex House (commonly known as the Essex House) is a luxury hotel at 160 Central Park South in Midtown Manhattan, New York City, at the southern border of Central Park. Opened in 1931, the hotel is 44 stories tall and contains 426 Art Deco–style rooms and 101 suites, as well as 147 condominium residences.[2] It features a distinctive red neon rooftop sign. Boasting sweeping Central Park views, this lavish two-bedroom suite offers all the comforts of a residential Manhattan apartment. The most recent Quinnipiac University national poll for example, showed 16% of registered voters saying they would support Kennedy if the election were being held today. Several other surveys have shown results in a similar range.

The heavily touristed crosstown street it sits on, Central Park South, is a mix of high-rise hotels and high-end apartment buildings. Retail is sparse on these park blocks, so there's very little indigenous street life; virtually everyone you'll see there will have a camera hanging around their neck. However, just two blocks east is Fifth Avenue, home to some of the most exclusive boutiques in New York City. Major attractions such as Times Square, Rockefeller Center, St Patrick’s Cathedral, and the MoMA can all be found within a 15-minute walk of the Essex House. There are nine subway lines within two blocks of the hotel, which makes getting to other sights farther afield -- including Grand Central Terminal, the Empire State Building, and Brooklyn Bridge – easy, fast, and cheap. JFK Airport is about an hour away by car (though driving times vary widely depending on the time of the day), while LaGuardia can be reached in 30 to 50 minutes.

The flames continued to burn for a few minutes before a New York police officer ran toward Azzarello with a fire extinguisher. Four officers suffered minor injuries putting out the flames. Maddrey said people used coats and fire extinguishers to help quell the flames. “He lights himself on fire,” Maddrey said during a news conference Friday afternoon.

It opens from early in the morning for breakfast -- both buffet and a la carte options available -- and closes late at night.

The first of its kind, this light features RGBW technology, which provides an infinite range of color choices and is available exclusively on the Foxterra.co website, and customers will not want to miss out. Each light is a chromatic masterpiece that can be used to change the ambiance of a home or yard with a few simple taps. Just click the “get started” button to fill out a design application and schedule a time to speak with our client service director. As you approach the backyard from inside of the house you can see through the glass walls of the pool and into the secluded firepit oasis at the edge of the property.

Ready to transform your yard?

The unique, timeless designs of the furniture can be used to elevate any exterior area, whether it's a small yard without a pool, or even a balcony or patio. We get to think beyond the traditional features you’d find in a backyard and focus on making your outdoor space a truly luxurious experience when your budget is $750K+. There’s no limit to what’s possible for your yard and we love exploring the potential in an outdoor space. We have had the opportunity to work on some amazing spaces and bring projects to life that we never imagined were possible when we first started our business. And that’s why we want to showcase some of our all-time favorite designs.

Want To Learn More About Our Process?

This versatility aligns perfectly with Foxterra's mission which is to help anyone with a private outdoor space to have a more resort-like feeling at home. When you have a larger budget, you can start to think about going oversized and making a statement with the scale of your design. We love playing with scale and ensuring that our clients end up with a yard that’s the envy of the neighborhood and THE place to hang out all summer. An infinity or zero-edge pool is one of our most popular requests from clients, and it can instantly take a yard from standard to unforgettable.

Our Client Didn’t Think A Luxury Yard Was Possible In His Space

The videos are a mix of content capturing the design aspect, recommendations, and the finished end result which is often breathtaking. Keep scrolling to see some of our favorite designs to date and click the button below for all the in-depth details that bring our luxury designs to life. Instead of splurging on big-budget custom features, start with standard fixtures and add custom finishing details instead. This is one thing we recommend to our clients when they really want a custom look, but don’t have an unlimited budget. Pool Opening Day isn’t just about physical fitness—it’s also about creating cherished memories with loved ones.

How Long Until You Can Enjoy Your New Yard?

We require a minimum construction budget of $200,000, so unfortunately, we don’t have a design package that fits your needs at this time. When we’re working with a bigger budget, we make sure that our design is as impressive after dark as it is during the day. This means incorporating custom lighting and features that really come to life at night, instead of focusing only on how to create a great experience for our clients when they use their yard during the day. Connecting the audience with the lifestyle of owning a luxury backyard is perhaps one of the most appealing aspects of following Foxterra Design. Aside from informative content that illustrates the possibilities of redesigning your outdoor living space, it’s simply fun to watch these backyard transformations take place.

This could be a fountain, a water wall, or some other water feature that gives your space the movement and texture you’re looking for without taking up most of your budget.

What is National Pool Opening Day All About?

It’s an element we can’t stop thinking about and one of our all-time favorite design choices. We went for the ‘wow’ factor with this yard with elements that add a little bit of magic to this backyard. Everything we included is equally as impressive at night as it is during the day thanks to the bold lighting we incorporated into the space.

We took advantage of the entire 8,000-square-foot lot in this design and used every bit of space to create a backyard escape. With a huge—or in some cases unlimited—budget, we can explore customizations that will make your yard truly one-of-a-kind. The sky is the limit with a $1M+ budget and we love imagining what’s possible for a space when we don’t have to consider cost when we’re getting creative. To make the transition from design → to construction as seamless as possible, we take all the guesswork out of finding the right contractor for your project.

This yard is truly a work of art, complete with custom sculptures and lighting elements that make this yard as stunning after dark as it is during the day. We’re here to design a yard you love — whether your budget is $300K, $700K, or $1M+. Find out how to get started when you’re ready to take your yard from standard and boring to an unforgettable at-home resort. Your contractor will start building your yard, but we’re still here to help! The products under scrutiny encompass various forms of ceramic tiles, including flooring, wall, paving, hearth, porcelain, mosaic, flags, finishing tiles, and similar items.

Our concept documents include a dimension plan of the designed space, scaled elevations with dimensions, and material callouts. Luxury outdoor furniture powerhouse Foxterra, founded by owners of Foxterra Design Justin Fox and Nate Fox, are proud to announce a new partnership with the creative furniture design experts at Ledge Lounger. This minimal design makes a major impression thanks to the scale of the yard and the bold features—including a 30 ft. fire wall and statement palm tree. Click the button below for a closer look at some of our biggest-budget exterior designs.

Fire and water mix with these incredible bowls that light up with fire and spout water. They’re the perfect blend of nature and they help frame the entire exterior. Because this area is sunken, it feels like you’re in a secluded space when you’re lounging around the fire pit in this seating area. There is a possibility that you may not like our initial concept, however we typically include 3 revisions in the design fee so that we can work to adjust the design to your taste based on your feedback. If the HOA or city has corrections, we will continue to work with you to adjust the design or suggest changes to meet the requirements requested. Our cost is based on the areas we are designing; i.e. just designing your backyard is less costly than doing both the front and back.

Our process is the same for every client, no matter where you live or what your budget is. We finalize your construction documents with dimensions, materials, and elevation drawings.

Listen to our interview with Foxterra Design on the Pool Magazine podcast. Foxterra.co was created to make luxury exterior lighting and furniture accessible to every place called home around the world. The venture was born out of Justin and Nate's passion to share their love of high-quality design with design enthusiasts in a way that encourages homeowners to express their own creativity. Next on our list of favorite exterior transformations is “The Mirage.” This is a project where we went for maximalism over minimalism. We took inspiration from Dubai and created a luxury backyard resort that includes a little bit of everything. No matter what your yard looks like right now, how much outdoor space you have to work with or what your construction budget is, we are here to design a yard you can actually enjoy.

After we’ve created the first concept, we will have a live video conference call with you and do a screen share to walk you through your design and get your feedback. We recreate your existing yard in our software and show you the 3D design so you can imagine exactly what it will be like when it’s finished. Click the button below for more information about some of our $450K-$600K budget designs. Click the button below for more information about some of our $300-$400K budget designs. Connect with your Foxterra “Preferred Partner” to discuss your project and go over all construction details.

This is another favorite design because it showcases how transitional, timeless design can transform a space and is the epitome of backyard luxury. For “The Mirage,” we wanted to separate spaces to take full advantage of the yard and let each design element exist in its own area. We added an elevated entertainment zone that’s connected to the rest of the yard by floating steps.

So this one product uses two apps—plus the Alexa app, if you plan to add a smart speaker to your system. However, once you set up the router, you probably won’t consult the Eero app much. This system works with almost every type of security accessory, offers options for internet and power backup, and has a built-in Wi-Fi 6 router.

Arlo Pro 4 Spotlight Camera

There have been reports of hacking and even incidents citing Ring’s own employees spying on customers. They also suspended use of the Request for Assistance tool in the Neighbors app, which allowed law enforcement to request and receive video footage without a warrant or subpoena. That means the base station can both serve as the brains of your security system and replace your current Wi-Fi router, depending on your service. Eero claims that its network covers 1,500 square feet and can support up to 75 connected devices at a time.

What kind of property are you protecting?

Perhaps most interesting about our list above is the diversity of home security companies represented. Each company has a particular target demographic, a specific philosophy, value proposition, company culture, etc. Some providers, such as Ring, offer professional monitoring without a contract, so you can purchase temporary alarm monitoring during a vacation, for example. "NerdWallet's ratings are determined by our editorial team. The scoring formula considers the type of home security system being reviewed, as well as pricing, offerings, video features, privacy and customer reviews."

Arlo: Best multi-function smart sensors

We also like the Pro version of this package, but the second-gen kit is a bit newer and doesn’t force you to use the built-in router (we prefer picking out our own routers). If you already use a bunch of smart-home devices and want a security system that can integrate with many of them, you might prefer the UL-certified Abode Smart Security Kit. It is compatible with sensors and accessories that communicate wirelessly using Z-Wave, Zigbee, and AbodeRF (radio frequency), as well as many popular third-party platforms.

How Do Home Security Systems Work?

But that can leave your home more vulnerable because you won’t have experts watching around the clock. For more information, check out our full article on the pros and cons of self-monitoring home security systems. A few of our tests included setting up “CUE” and Quick Actions automation and triggering the alarm through the sensors and camera. We also watched SafeWise gueststar, Toki the cat, in the living room all day through the live feed while we were in the office.

The Smart Help Center proved invaluable, offering in-depth product information and ensuring we made well-informed decisions with ease. Eufy’s approach, combining clear communication and extensive support, made exploring its home security solutions a smooth and informative journey. Positive reviews about the company praise its systems and how well they function. They also mention positive experiences with the company’s customer service team. Complaints mainly take issue with broken or missing equipment as well as issues with the cancellation process.

Additionally, malicious actors can hack devices that connect via Wi-Fi, such as security cameras and smart door locks, to gain access to your home network. A skilled hacker can then use your Wi-Fi devices and other network resources to carry out Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks against larger networks. Perhaps even more disturbing is the idea of some stranger monitoring video from your indoor and outdoor security cameras. If you’re in the market for a smart home security system and want to upgrade your home network to Wi-Fi 6 at the same time, the Ring Alarm Pro accomplishes both tasks.

These easy-to-install home security systems have smart technologies to automatically detect and alert you of any goings-on so you can monitor your home from anywhere in the world using your mobile devices. If you'd rather install a system yourself, and are unsure if you want to sign up for a monitoring plan, check out our picks for the best DIY home security systems. The cost of a home security system varies, but most typically require at least $200 for equipment plus a monthly monitoring fee. Picking a home security system can be intimidating, but the heavy lifting’s already taken care of for you.

Ring Alarm Security Kit

We conducted hands-on testing, met with ADT for demonstrations and to ask questions, and even visited an ADT technician training center. We grilled friends and family who have ADT systems, read through customer reviews, and watched how ADT performs on both a daily and long-term basis. If you’ll sleep better knowing that a well-known, tried-and-true company is watching over your home, ADT is worth the money.

In addition, we scoured the web and analyzed countless online reviews by both customers and security industry professionals to ensure that the most accurate information has been provided below. Having the right home security system is crucial for ensuring you, your property, and any valuable possessions are properly protected against theft and vandalism. However, there is a huge range of security systems on the market today, which can make it very hard to know which option to choose. We can help you find the best home security system for your home and your family.

When you’re looking for the best home security system to buy, verify that you’ll get a certificate to submit to your home insurance company after installation. Both protect your home just fine, but wireless home security systems have more flexibility if you move or don’t want to put holes in walls. A hardwired system could be the perfect option if you want a complete smart home or if you can incorporate the installation into a renovation or new construction. We tested the previous Blue by ADT system and loved its easy setup and simple, no-nonsense devices.

Our expert industry analysis and practical solutions help you make better buying decisions and get more from technology. You can take several steps to make sure your home security system is safe from cyber intruders. For starters, you can replace the system's default password with a unique one that contains a mix of letters, numbers, and symbols. Check the security settings on your wireless router and consider models that add an extra layer of software protection. A smart home security system connects to your Wi-Fi network so you can monitor and control your security devices via an app.

Here are a few other home security companies that may have an alarm system that’s right for you. The installation service is provided by the local dealer, so the quality of service that you receive depends on the shop. However, many people prefer working with a local company rather than a large, faceless corporation. Purchasing a home security system once required a technician to come into your house and run wires through your walls, but today’s systems are wireless—and much easier to install. We also look at the security app to determine if you can connect smart home devices directly to your security system. We don’t include cameras in this category since they’re such an essential piece of the home security equation.

Wireless refers to the use of wireless technology like Wi-Fi or Bluetooth for monitoring and connecting the components of your system. Wired refers to a home security system hardwired into your home’s electrical system. Read all about Ring alarm equipment and prices in our full Ring Alarm review.

For this mani, the bow is meant to look wiggly and droopy, like an actual ribbon, so there’s no need to be perfect as you scrawl yours on. This 3D acrylic ribbon makes for the perfect accent in an otherwise minimalist manicure. If you’re feeling the coquette theme, you could add a bow to every fingertip — but nothing beats keeping things simple and chic. If you want to keep your coquette nails clean and simple, go for a white to pink ombré effect, then add a few subtle ribbons on top. Ribbon nail art can run the gamut from over-the-top and gaudy to cutesy and minimalist — or somewhere in between, like the above. Pastel colors and tiny bows keep things chic, while the 3D details pop.

Give your French tip nails a luxurious makeup with cherry red tips covered in matte stripes. Bedazzled cherries add a playful touch to the moody polish color. Match your everyday denim wardrobe staples with nails that feature double-lined tips. These abstract nails are truly perfectly imperfect, with raw lines that nod to the mani trend in a modern way.

NYPD Chief of Detectives Joseph Kenny said police identified a vehicle that Azzarello may have used but were still working to locate it. Authorities spoke with his family, who said they didn’t know he was in New York. Online records also show Azzarello worked for Strong Towns, a nonprofit media advocacy group.

By contrast, Biden, who won 51% of the vote last time, knows that Trump’s core vote is solid. Rather than try to chip away at Trump’s total, his goal has to be to get past him. But the bulk of voters who are attracted to Kennedy aren’t activists.

Every previous cease-fire “has been used by Hamas to rearm, to rebuild and then launch another surprise attack. Some of his other views also clearly wouldn’t sit well with groups of Democrats who are disenchanted with Biden, especially those on the left. Recent polls have shown Kennedy getting more support from the Republican camp, which could be “a function of our getting the word out about him,” Smith said. That has included a public endorsement of Biden earlier this month by 15 members of the Kennedy family. One reason it’s hard to guess how much support Kennedy will win this fall is that polls have a hard time measuring how much support he has now.

They skew young, but also tend to be less focused on politics and less likely to vote at all, polls show. The latest NBC News poll, for example, asked voters two horse-race questions. First, it asked about a Biden-Trump matchup and found Trump ahead 46%-44% — a result well within the survey’s margin of error. “His role and who he takes votes from is likely to be quite dynamic” as the campaign develops, said Lis Smith, the veteran Democratic strategist who leads the party’s efforts against Kennedy. In 2020, by contrast, all the independent and third-party candidates combined took less than 1.8% of the vote.

After Lester is arrested and the money recovered, Malcolm finds that Sherry and Trent refuse to speak to him, heartbroken by his deception. 7) And then, even though – and I can't make this clear enough - he's really a man wearing a female fat suit, Martin decides to pose naked for a life-drawing class. And yet, despite all this, he's still decided to take all of his clothes off. FBI agent Malcolm Turner and his 17-year-old son, Trent, go undercover at an all-girls performing arts school after Trent witnesses a murder. Posing as Big Momma and Charmaine, they must find the murderer before he finds them.

Events at Mama

Surrounded by attractive young women, Trent nearly blows his cover, but befriends a girl named Haley Robinson. The headmistress announces that a historic music box has been stolen from the library, and Malcolm deduces that it contains the flash drive. While scoping out the library, Malcolm encounters security guard Kurtis Kool, who attempts to woo him while giving a tour.

During this encounter, Malcolm reveals his true identity to Kurtis. After gaining the favor of several students by offering sage advice and comfort to them, he finally learns the music box was actually stolen by Haley. She did it to become a full pledged member of the "Divas", a group of top artists in the school. As she is about to perform her duet, Malcolm forces Trent to retain his disguise, and he attempts to perform the duet with Haley as Charmaine, only to break disguise and ruin the performance. Trent helps Haley perfect her musical performance for the upcoming "Showcase" event, turning it into a duet.

A music video titled "Imma Do It Big" was released on February 9, 2011. The song is by Brandon T. Jackson and features One Chance and T-Pain. The song starts off with a verse by Jackson and then a verse from T-Pain, then another verse by Jackson, but this verse is rapped by his real-life alter ego Charmaine. Trent accidentally draws their attention as he attempts to pursue Haley and explain himself. Just as he recovers the flash drive, the gang members catch up and hold him at gunpoint. Big Momma interferes and provides an escape, but all three are caught again and Malcolm's disguise is revealed.

If you would like to have it taken off your bill, please ask your server. When a street-smart FBI agent is sent to Georgia to protect a beautiful single mother and her son from an escaped convict, he is forced to impersonate a crass Southern granny known as Big Momma in order to remain incognito. A soundtrack containing hip hop music was released on May 30, 2000, by So So Def Records.

2) But when his son witnesses a gangland murder, Martin Lawrence knows that he must do everything in his power to protect him. Sure, in similar situations, Lawrence's answer has been to dress up as a fat old lady, but not this time. This is his own son, whom he loves unconditionally and would do anything for. Therefore, he uses all of his FBI know-how to push him to the front of the government's witness protection programme and help him lie low in a special constantly guarded safehouse until ... During the exchange, Canetti's cover is blown and he is killed, which Trent witnesses. Malcolm eventually rescues Trent and they escape, but as Trent's car was left at the scene Malcolm knows the gang members will be able to track them down so the two are forced to hide undercover.

Malcolm takes the advantage by disguising himself as Big Momma to bring Sherry to her house to get her confession to her involvement in the robbery. To maintain his disguise as Big Momma, Malcolm must maintain the real Big Momma's lifestyle. This is hilarious because a) fat people playing Twister is funny, b) gay things – no matter how unwitting – are funny and c) oh God, kill me now. 4) Martin Lawrence enrolls his son into the Georgia Girls School For Performing Arts – the last place that the mob will look. Unless any of them have any knowledge of the last two highly publicised instances where Martin Lawrence reacted to danger by immediately leaping inside a female fat suit and hiding somewhere full of women, obviously.

Big Momma's House is 8080 on the JustWatch Daily Streaming Charts today. In the United States, it is currently more popular than Ape Canyon but less popular than Meanwhile on Earth. The film was released on DVD and VHS on November 28, 2000, EVD in 2002 and a Blu-ray edition was released on September 16, 2011. Seeking forgiveness, Malcolm attends the Sunday morning church service, where he gives a heartfelt speech to Sherry and Trent declaring he genuinely loves them. Big Momma forgives him for his actions, and the church crowd cheers as Malcolm and Sherry kiss, before Big Momma and the choir sing "Oh Happy Day" during the film's closing credits.

Looking back, it's strange to remember that the first two movies were both hits, and that Paul Giamatti and Terrence Howard even saw enough in the premise to sign up for the original. Another song called "Lyrical Miracle" by Brandon T. Jackson as he goes by the name of Trent's rapper named Prodi-G and also features Martin Lawrence as his alter ego, Big Momma, with other characters from the film. Malcolm, in an attempt to capture Russian gang member Chirkoff, uses an informant named Canetti to deliver a flash drive to the gang. Canetti reveals that the flash drive is empty and a duplicate is hidden with a friend at the Georgia Girls School for the Arts.

Just as Chirkoff is about to kill them, Kurtis arrives with a taser and saves the day. The film was directed by John Whitesell and stars Martin Lawrence reprising his role as FBI agent Malcolm Turner. Matters soon become complicated when John discovers that the real Big Momma has returned home. In his efforts to stop her re-entering the house, John instructs Nolan to lock her out, only for the dim-witted guard to accidentally lock Malcolm out. Lester tracks Sherry down to Big Momma's house and later puts her in danger. Malcolm swiftly breaks into the house, whereupon he tackles Lester and subdues him after John is shot, but at the cost of his disguise being dropped in front of everyone, including Sherry and Trent.
