To be clear, I am a writer, not a burglar. I'm writing a story, and I've run into a situation where my character needs to defeat a burglar alarm to get into a victim's home. I don't need a lot of detail about how to defeat the alarm, but I need to get him in through an alarmed door or window and I need to figure out how he can defeat the infrared sensor inside the house.My initial thought is that he should be able to jam something in between the contact points on the door or window to allow the circuit to remain closed even when the door is opened, but I don't know what. I piece of conductible metal? Something else?No idea about the infrared sensor. (It can be another kind of sensor, too. Infrared just seemed the most common when I did my research about burglar alarms.) Anyone have any ideas?
yea but it went bad a few years ago. i see it hanging on the wall now
Kevlar vests Chief Justice Roberts did. Obama followed.
A DMZ is a demilitarized zone. This is necessary when you have a cease fire without a true peace. It allows both sides to deploy troops and equipment as they see fit without actually bumping into each other and re-sparking hostilities. It is literally a stretch of land between both sides that is forbidden to either military. Crossing into this stretch of land with significant troops is considered a hostile act and the other side may respond. The land may be claimed by one or both sides and it might be occupied with civilians but military placement is not allowed. Defensive fortifications may not be built, troops might patrol but may not be permanently stationed within the zone. It is not precisely a speed bump. Think of it more as insulation between two groups that shouldn't be in direct contact till they sort out their problems. It really isn't built. It's just land so it was always there. I am not sure of the width but I believe it is uniform. That you can Google though. 2 years assigned to the 2nd Infantry Division in the ROK. Added: When people mention the Speed Bump they usually mean the US troops stationed North of Seoul. When I was there our officers denied that we were a speed bump and claimed that we could hold our ground till US forces in Japan and the Pacific could relieve us. Truthfully I couldn't tell you if that is right or wrong. Many soldiers had their doubts and felt that we would slow the enemy down but wouldn't stop them. All I can say is that whether we were a speed bump or a true defense North Korea would be facing the full might of the US, Japan, South Korea, Australia and so on eventually and they would lose. It's definitely a no-win for their side and attacking the North would probably be a Pyrrhic victory for ours. Too many mountain passes and too much entrenched air defense.
