Surveillance has become a crucial factor, whether it is to monitor residential or commercial settings. More than six million households have installed home security systems. Today, one of the more popular surveillance systems in the market is IP security cameras, also known as network security cameras. Unlike traditional setups, these cameras can connect wirelessly to a Wi-Fi network. But there are several factors one should consider before purchasing an IP camera. CCTV vs. IP security cameras Traditional security networks like CCTV cameras ran on co-axial cables around the site that needed video surveillance. These analog and analog-over-digital security cameras shared the footage with a digital video recorder (DVR) via the co-axial cables. It was a complex process. But today, IP security cameras can record and transfer footage over the ethernet or Wi-Fi by connecting to a network video recorder (NVR). Functioning of IP security cameras An IP camera is capable of capturing footage in high definition with resolutions up to 16 megapixels (or higher) based on the model of the camera. These devices are equipped with a processing chip capable of compressing footage once a video is recorded. A higher camera resolution will use more data for each video recording. This also means that the camera will require more storage space and higher bandwidth to transmit data. One can also pick a lower-resolution camera which may take up less space for each recording. Benefits A network security camera installation carries several benefits. A few perks include:

• Remote access With modern-day IP security cameras, an authorized user can video live or pre-recorded footage on most electronic devices like laptops, tablets, smartphones, computers, and even smart televisions. They can also use the camera application to change settings, activate or deactivate the device, and share access with other individuals.
• Two-way audio Some IP security cameras come with two-way audio where the authorized user can listen to the subject in the frame. Some cameras also have a built-in speaker that allows the administrator to speak to the subject. IP cameras are also known to render a much better resolution when compared to analog cameras.
• Easy to install Most IP security cameras have an instruction manual that lets users plug in, register, and activate the device in a few minutes. Moreover, CCTV cameras usually require a professional to install the entire system, which may cost a lot of money. But one can pick up IP security cameras for much cheaper across several online retail stores.
• Battery backup Some IP security cameras come with an independent battery backup. So in the event of a power cut, the device will still be able to record any unusual activities that transpire around the surveillance location.

Connection options During the installation of a network security camera, an individual can choose from three types of network connectivity options.

• Wireless network A wireless (Wi-Fi) network sends and receives data to a wireless router. Most smart devices, including IP security cameras in an individual's home, can be connected via Wi-Fi. A person can view the footage by entering the IP address of the camera in a web browser. Internet service providers may also give their customers dynamic IP addresses that are changed occasionally to ensure better network security.
• Wired network A wired network can connect an IP camera to the network with an ethernet cable. The installation is usually more secure than connecting to a wireless network, as there is little opportunity for interference with the signal or unauthorized access. Moreover, data transmission speeds with ethernet are smoother and more efficient than Wi-Fi.
• Cellular network Cellular networks are slower than wireless and wired networks but also more convenient. Most IP security cameras are equipped with cellular transmitters, which enable authorized users to connect and view recorded footage remotely.

Popular picks An individual will find hundreds of manufacturers that claim to make the best quality IP security cameras. However, only a few truly live up to their word. Here are a few popular options.

Are you someone who does not have time to go to the gym, is low on finances to pay gym fees, feels too awkward to work out among strangers? If you belong to any of these categories, we have some good and useful workout tips that you can do within the comforts of your home. You can also call in one of your buddies to give you company to sweat it out. For these workout exercises, you need your basic workout clothes, shoes and dumbbells. Working out helps keep men's health in check and keeps one away from many potential disease. Check out some of the exercises listed below to improve your overall health and well-being! Push-ups: This is the simplest exercise to strengthen your shoulder, triceps and chest muscles. Pushups prepare you for more demanding exercises that put your shoulder joints to test. Do it on rep. Planking: This exercise strengthens your core muscles without giving you any injuries. For men, the average duration to hold a planking position is 2 minutes or 120 seconds. Planking is a great way to strengthen your abs and sculpt your torso. Add to this side planking as well. Bicep curl: With dumbbells in each hand, lift the weights to your shoulder level keeping your upper arms still. Move only your lower arms keeping your elbows stationary. Do this on rep. This exercise will develop your bicep muscles and increase their strength. Squats: They might look simple, but squats are most difficult to do. Whether you want to shed fat or build muscles, squat exercises are quite beneficial. Squats work out and strengthen all the major muscles of your leg including quadriceps, hamstrings, glutes, and the muscles that make up the calves. Lunges: Similar to squats, lunges help to strengthen your glutes, quadriceps, calves, hamstrings and your core as well. Doing lunges is good for your spine posture, flexibility of hips and overall body balance. Do a combination of forward, reverse and side lunges for complete lower body workout. Cardio: Doing cardio increases your stamina, makes your heart and lungs stronger, and helps in weight loss. Although squats and lunges are also cardio exercises, you can pick a day specifically to do only cardio. Or if you decide to take the stairs instead of the elevator, you will score high on your cardio routine. At home, you can start by walking or running or jumping jacks in place. Or you can get out of your house and jog around the block.

Many citizens today file or plan to file their taxes online. There are many unpaid and paid websites where you can do so. The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) is the agency that collects the taxes of the whole country. You can file your federal taxes, which is the tax collected by the government, as well as most of the state’s tax returns on the IRS website. E- filing taxes is an easy procedure if you have all the necessary documents handy. For e-filing taxes, you need to follow these simple steps: • Keep the documents ready:  You need the W-2 form, income statements, health insurance coverage documents, money spent on charity and interest statements to file your tax returns. Make sure that you keep these documents handy before you start filling the form. • Know your type of tax returns: -Once you have the documents ready, see if you fall under the free tax return preparation. If you are a family member of military men, people with disability, or a senior citizen you get leeway on the tax returns. Also, if your Adjusted Gross Income(AGI) is below $60,000 per year, then you can avail the IRS Free File Software Program. • Keep the finances ready: It is expensive to file the tax returns online as compared to the traditional way. It takes around $20 up to $80 to file a federal tax return. If along with the federal taxes, you want to file the state taxes, then you will need an additional $30 to$50. • Fill the form correctly: Use the IRS e-file website to fill the correct tax form. • Do the math: Calculate your income, investment, and taxes. Check for the tax deduction and credit by showing proofs that you donate to charity and have childcare expenses. • File the tax returns carefully: If you have a child depending on you, then you can reduce your taxes by claiming the child as a dependent. Best tax software companies for e-filing taxes For those with an AGI of $60,000 annually, you must use the benefits of the Free File software, which is one of the best unpaid tax software available in the market. This software is a partnership effort of government and private firms that allows people with a low-income to file the federal taxes for free. H&R Block, TurboTax, TaxSlayer, and Intuit are the other popular tax software that you can check out. While e-filing taxes, choose an e-file provider that is authorized by the IRS.
