I strongly want no one to fall victim to such types of crimes like shoplifting, burglary, speeding, robbery, mugging, arson, pickpocketing or vandalism. But when you are warned- you are armed, so I have some examples and ideas to protect yourself from crimes.
I want to start with facts about Street art. These days, it is not only grannies who knit. In cities such as New York, London and Berlin, community art groups are busy graffiti knitting', creating colourful decorations for lampposts, parking meters, cars and statues. The craze was started by Magda Sayeg in the USA, when she decided to brighten up the steel and concrete landscape of Austin, Texas with her knitted creations. Now knitting needles are clicking worldwide. So, next time you walk past a city statue, take a look - it might be wearing a scarf.
Most people remember playing with Lego bricks as a child. It seems, though, that toy towns aren't the only things they are used to construct. Lego repair work' was created by German artist Jan Vormann. Jan spent three years travelling the world, fixing crumbling walls and monuments with Lego. Jan took his project to New York and together with a team of volunteers, constructed Lego repairs all over the city. Cracks in buildings soon disappeared and were replaced with bright Lego shapes.
Most big cities have their fair share of graffti, but, like it or not, one British graffiti artist is now considered to be a worldwide phenomenon. The true identity of Banksy is surrounded in mystery. Some of his most famous images include a young girl with a heart-shaped ballon and a dove of peace wearing a bulletproof vest Banksy's work has even been exhibited in art exhibitions. Some find Banksy's work offensive, while others think he is one of the most important artists today.
Guerill
a gardeners plant flower gardens and vegetable patches on neglected land without permission. They believe it improves inner-city communities. The designs are made as artistic as possible. While some people see this as a way to bring new life to forgotten spaces, others point out that, pretty or not, it's still illegal. One group of guerilla gardeners were busy on a rundown London street recently when an old lady called out her approval to them.
I want to finish with something positive. GraFFFest, The International Petersburg Graffiti Art Forum, is a new exciting and innovative art festival held in Saint Petersburg every summer. It is one of the few of its kind in Russia. The festival aims to promote street art and hopes to help people appreciate this growing art form. brings together a variety of graffiti artists. Artists and designers from all over the world create their graffiti masterpieces in the streets of the city and the best ones appear on a website after the festival. The artists usually work together as a group on a common piece of art on large wall somewhere in the city. The festival also organises many interesting events. There are hip-hop and other concerts in support of street art and documentaries and films about graffti are shown to the public. GraFFFest is a great festival that brings people together.

Crime fighter's job is so hard. 26-year-old Ben Lagdon told some facts about Crime fighter's work. On the TV shows, investigators end every work day with a dramatic arrest, but sometimes their cases aren't solved for months. Also, on CSI you see that everything is being10 done by one or two people. They go to the crime scene, do DNA analysis, then go and arrest the suspect. In reality, a lot of different specialised technicians, forensic scientists and detectives are involved in each case. There's no typical day because every case is different. A ski mask had been found after an armed robbery at a pizzeria, so I had to search it for hair, blood and saliva. As well as ordinary microscopes, they use powerful electron microscopes. They also use ultraviolet light to see traces of evidence like tiny fibres and spectrometers which identifty chemicals. Their techniques are becoming more high-tech all the time. Well, this job definitely isn't for everyone. Some crime scenes can be very distressing, On the other hand, it's wonderful when a case has been solved and your evidence played a role in that. You get to help the community, and that's a great feeling.
I want to add historical part, so I want to tell about Agatha Christie. Agatha Christie was a famous English crime writer who is best known for her detective stories featuring Hercule Poirot and Miss Jane Marple. Agatha was born 1890 in the seaside town of Torquay) in Devon, England to an American father and an English mother. Her family was well-to-do and conservative and she was the youngest of three children. Although Agatha never attended school, she didn't have a lack of education. Agatha was a shy child and, having problems. When she was eleven, her father died and she became very close to her mother with whom she started to travel a lot. During the First World War, Agatha worked as a nurse in a hospital and it was during this time that Agatha Christie got the idea of writing a detective novel. The Mysterious Affair at Styles introduced the retired Belgian/ police officer, Hercule Poirot, to the world and was a great success. Following this, Agatha would write more than 30 novels featuring Poirot. In all she wrote over 66 novels, the most famous being Murder on the Orient Express, and according to the Guinness Book of records, Agatha Christie is the best-selling writer of her time with over four billion books sold throughout the world.

We usually use computer, so everyone can be hacked. Cyber crime is one of the baddest things in our time. In the UK hundreds of thousands of computers hacked every year. The people who do those attacks called crackers or hackers. They are very intelligent programmers. They use their skills to gain access, steal data, infect computers with a virus. To protect yourself against cybercrimers, you need to: 1. Choose a good nickname without personal information (age, name) 2. Choose a smart and difficult password. Don’t choose your date of birth. It should be good combination of words and numbers 3. Don’t open any emails from unknown people. Just delete them. 4. Download anti-virus program. It will help you, it scans and delete the videos. It is the best way to protect yourself.
Animals are unpredictable and can do really strange and funny things. Right now I want tell about some examples. That was unfortunate for one gang of burglars, when Jack, a pet shop's resident parrot, in Coventry, UK tuned out to be no friend of theirs. One night, the burglars broke into the shop and attempted to steal Jack along with other animals, but Jack scratched the thieves to pieces and through the back door.
That's quite a story. Well, in Egypt, a hungry donkey was actually sent to prison for stealing sweetcorn from a field It all started when the owner of an agricultural research institute noticed that he had had some of his crops stolen. The police set up a checkpoint to catch a thief, but caught a donkey munching the corn.
I read that a court in or Boston, USA, accidentally ordered a cat called Tabby Sal to jury service! Tabby Sal's owner wrote to the court to explain the mistake. Mrs Esposito said that Sal was a member of the family so she had put his name down on the last census form under 'pets'.
In the UK one of the most popular things is Neighbouthood watch.People often have to take security measures to protect their home and family against crime. In the UK, a citizens' movement, started in the nineteen-eighties, watches over and protects neighbourhoods throughout the country Neighbourhood Watch is the UK's largest voluntary and watching out for you and your neighbours' safety and organisation. Its objective is to prevent crime. It's primarily about keeping an eye on what's going on in the neighbourhood property. But it also tries to improve the quality of life in the community. In some communities, people come together to prevent burglaries. With the help of a local blacksmith they make all the homes in the neighbourhood more secure by installing better locks and alarm systems. In other neighbourhoods, people fight vandalism and other antisocial behaviour by providing young people with alternative activities. Since 1995, the Neighbourhood Watch Association has run the annual Neighbourhood Watch Awards. The awards give the millions of participants the opportunity to publicise their successes.
