Warpedchic

Thnx (:
Answer
OKAY. So this will be my fourth year going. Here are my tips that have gotten me through:
1) Get to the venue about an hour before the doors open. Bring at least 3 canned goods. There will be a "Feed Our Children" tent at the front of the venue. Donate the food and you'll get in half an hour early.
2) Once in, buy a map of the stages with the set times for all the stages on the back for $5.
3) Bring a pen. Choose the bands you want to see and plan the day out.
4) BRING A WATER BOTTLE. They have a free water refill station. You WILL need to refill at least three times to keep hydrated. Bring an extra cap with you too, sometimes the security guards will take it when they go through your bags.
5) Bring a small bag that you can wear on your shoulder. In it, pack: the water bottle and extra caps, sunscreen, baby wipes, a sharpie, camera if you want (non professional), sunglasses, a jacket depending on the weather that day, and some snacks (food is expensive at all venues).
6) If you want to meet a band, I highly recommend getting their Twitter updates sent to your phone. This way when they announce when and what tent they're signing at, you'll know and be able to work that into your day.
7) DO NOT WEAR FLIP FLOPS YOU WILL HURT YOUR FEET.
8) Don't get freaked out if people are doing drugs. It happens. They won't offer you any, just be aware.
9) Be careful of crowdsurfers. Don't let them fall.
10) If you feel sick or dehydrated, seek medical help immediately. People have died of dehydration before.
11) Don't buy any VIP passes you see online. They're fake.
12) Check out at least one band you don't know.
13) HAVE FUN. This is the best day of the entire year for me. Let loose and have a blast!

Home security system that takes photos?
TitsMcGee
I was at a friends house the other night and they live in an area where there's lots of surveillance. When I was leaving a security camera from a house across the street starting blinking a red light then came a flash like any other camera flash but a lot bigger and brighter. I wasn't sure what it was but then I realized that it was taking pictures of me and my car, I've been to my friends house before but that hasn't happened until now. I just want to know what happens to those pictures and/or what are they for also why were the pictures taken in the first place?
Any information would be helpful
Answer
You can't know what's being done with any images any more.
Some operators of systems post them to a website, which they can access remotely for monitoring.*
The images may be stored for extended time periods, or they could be erased after just a few days if no extraordinary activity is recorded.
Higher resolution 'still images' could be used for facial recognition.
Many folks acquire images for the sake of being able to recreate events and identifying any perp's if criminal activities occur.
*Note that images posted anywhere on the 'Net may be intercepted by the FBI (et al), and using "NGI biometric identifiers" a profile of you may be made.
