[OBA Solution Framework Index]
Office Business Applications (or OBAs) represent a good way to provide solutions for cross-functional business processes. Office Client applications allow users to interact with systems from using familiar interfaces. Office servers bring together structured and unstructured processes, data and documents. However it is important to understand that the platform capabilities required to support a business process, are more than just what you get with the Office System. The good news though, is that the Office system is a good way to surface capabilities from other platform technologies e.g. SQL Server (data, integration / reporting / analysis services), BizTalk Server (business process management / monitoring), Active Directory (identity management).
Before going into details on how to do this, let us look at what the anatomy of a business solution looks like. This will be done from the perspective of a software solution provider - packaging an OBA solution for subsequent deployment and implementation at a customer location. This high level overview will set the stage for more detailed drilldown in subsequent blog posts.
Any business solution will need to include some (or all) of the following elements. All of these elements can be supported through an OBA.
- Roles: Most solution providers won't know up-front who the users in the system are going to be. However they can (and should) partition artifacts of the solution by role. Later when the OBA is deployed, and actual users are assigned to roles, then these users should automatically have solution artifacts for their roles become available to them. Another benefit is that knowledge networks within the enterprise become explicit (e.g. who knows what, how to search for persons by skillset).
Implications for OBA: Consider role specific SharePoint dashboards and personalization sites. Later when people are assigned roles, then links to their dashboards / personalization sites should automatically appear on their 'My Site's i.e. auto-discovery of tasks, documents, reports, ... etc that are part of their job.
- Information Channels: Different roles can receive information through various channels e.g. through a web portal (i.e. ASP.Net, SharePoint), through an Office client document, through a mobile device, through a smart client application, through IM (i.e. Office Communicator). The business solution not only needs to support these multiple modes of information distribution, but also extends the reach of these front end systems into data stores in the back office.
Implications for OBA: Consider the information architecture holistically e.g. design SharePoint site hierarchies and document libraries to match business processes, roles and organization structure. Key artifacts (e.g. documents, dashboards etc.) related to particular business processes can be arranged in the context of this information architecture. Office client applications can be extended through process specific add-ins that plug into these information structures. Consider using VSTO SE to build these add-ins.
- Process: There is a spectrum of business process from collaborative (e.g. people-to-people interactions) to transactional (e.g. structured people-to-system, and system-to-system interactions). Any business solution needs to be able to represent business process that enables the right level of visibility and monitoring.
Implications for OBA: For document routing within a team or organization, consider using Workflow technologies within SharePoint. These might be simple sequential workflows that extract information out of documents that get added to document library, or might be complex state machine worflows that coordinate tasks / document routing across subordinate workflows. For managing the lifecycle of business processes / business entities (esp. when coordinating across multiple groups or organizations), consider using BizTalk to handle business processes external to SharePoint.
- Rules: Often business processes are fairly static. Once modeled, they are not updated very frequently. More often the dynamic elements of a business process are the business rules that make up the process. Consider externalizing rules from workflows / orchestrations, so that their lifecycle can be managed separately from the lifecycle of the processes that they support.
Implications for OBA: For workflows that are embedded in SharePoint, consider management of these through a separate rules service - with a deployment mechanism into SharePoint.
- Events: Most people tend to suffer from information overload as part of their job. A typical response to this is to handle business process through a process of Manage-By-Exception. Therefore a business solution might choose to support management of the lifecycle of events / exceptions that are part of the business process. The lifecycle of an event typically is Detection - Notification - Resolution.
Implications for OBA: Consider modeling events within SharePoint through a Task libraries that 'own' a particular business event, and reports / dashboards to provide visibility. Consider managing the lifecycle of these events through State Machine workflows running within SharePoint. Alternatively, the lifecycle of these events could be managed by the BPM server (e.g. BizTalk) external to SharePoint, and SharePoint would just act as the visibility layer (for reporting / task management).
- Data: In some sense, data is the fuel that drives any business solution. For solution providers, there needs to be a well defined data interface, that clearly marks out the data entities which are consumed in the business process - and which need to be mapped to back end data stores at deployment time.
Implications for OBA: Consider modeling business entities, and the actions that can be taken on them, using the BDC (Business Data Catalog, a shared service within MOSS). Solution providers can map these to WSS lists, and then these could be mapped to other back end data stores at deployment time.
- Performance Management: In order to support a complete business cycle, a business solution needs to enable roles to plan activities, carry them out, measure the impact, and make appropriate course corrections. These are covered through the following four steps - Monitor, Analyze, Plan, Execute. Implications for OBA: Personalization sites that support particular roles in a business process, should provide artifacts that support each of these four steps e.g. reports / dashbords for monitoring, links to activities for execution, and links to spreadsheets for analysis and planning. These artifacts should plug into the data / information / eventing channels described above. Also consider using Performance Point that plugs into SharePoint, and that provides capabilities for three out of the fours steps listed here (monitor, analyze and plan).

Forum: How to win funds and influence people - Simon Wolff thinks academics should be looking for some sponsorship
It is, as they say, a bit of a poser. No British academic scientist
wants to leave Britain to join the 'brain drain' (there are loyalties to
family, friends and culture) but personal impoverishment is forcing renewed
numbers of excellent academics to take the money and run abroad. One celebrated
recent case is that of the St Mary's Medical School Alzheimer's Research
Group, most of whose members, being offered twice their current salaries,
are departing for the geriatric shores of Tampa, Florida. More money for
themselves, more people with Alzheimer's to study. Who can blame them?
But blame them people certainly did. On a popular early morning TV programme
recently, they were accused of gross disloyalty and lack of dedication.
Dedication is, however, a somewhat movable feast. John Hardy, head of the
emigrant research group observed that university clinicians were loyal and
dedicated but 'on twice the salary'. Scientists are expected, in Britain,
to pursue their science with research results as the sole reward.
The idea that we should need money as well appears, to many people,
evidently a peculiar concept. Yet no politician would dare to venture that
the future prosperity of this country is not dependent upon our competitiveness
in science and technology. So where's the money to keep us sweet and over
here? Where, pray, is the incentive in my pay packet? Why is my take-home
salary more than 25 per cent less than a civil servant of equivalent training,
grade and experience?
Before addressing the extremely interesting question of the ways in
which funding of national strategic interests is organised, think about
how much money would actually be needed to keep people like John Hardy in
Britain. At the last count, there were about 45 000 nonclinical staff (teaching
and researching in all disciplines) working full-time within the British
university system. The average salary of these people is, across the board,
about £20 000.
So to bring them up to the salary level of their civil servant colleagues
would require additional annual funding of about £250 million. This
is one hell of a lot of money. It is hardly surprising that successive education
secretaries appear confident in their categorical statements that it can't
be afforded.
The real problem here, of course, is that nobody understands very large
amounts of money. What is £250 million worth? What does it represent?
Is it really a lot, or is it very little? And given that this money would
be coming directly or indirectly from government coffers is there anything
on which our tax monies are currently spent which could be diverted, even
in part, to keep our universities staffed?
Putting the question in this way is interesting. For example, not many
people know that the tax handout in the form of direct and indirect subsidies
to company car drivers has been calculated at £3 billion per annum?
Could we have 8 per cent of that please, or a month's worth, if you prefer?
After all, there's not much sign that subsidising the congestion of our
towns and cities by foreign cars is doing our prosperity much good.
In the same vein, how about a bit of the road-building budget: £4
billions a year. Let's have 3 weeks' worth of that. It only means scrapping
the building of another 2 miles' worth of urban motorway somewhere. I doubt
this little loss would cause the country to come grinding to a halt. Or
let's have a week's worth of the agricultural subsidy, still running at
£12 billion a year: 2 per cent of that wouldn't bring mass starvation
to the country. Even 4 days' worth of the national defence budget would
hardly lead to invasion by communist hardliners, if there were any left.
See what I mean? When you start to look closely at what we get for £250
million it's not really very much. And this game is fun for all the family.
So try it yourself at home. Look at areas of public expenditure which you
find excessive. Calculate the percentage or time-equivalent you get for
£250 million. What percentage of the pharmaceuticals industry's excessive
profits from sales to the NHS? The advertising and administration budget
for how many privatisations? An advanced version of the game involves calculating
how many top-grade civil servants or over-paid directors of newly privatised
companies could be sacked without damage to the economy.
So the problem is not that the money is not available for the universities.
The tax monies are clearly there. The problem is that these monies are spent
on things of somewhat dubious merit, and in copious amounts. The result,
of course, is that we spend a smaller proportion of our national wealth
on the universities than any other member of the OECD countries with the
exception, I believe, of Turkey. But we spend a greater proportion of our
wealth keeping our wealthy company car drivers in traffic jams and our farmers
in unsaleable produce than any other OECD country. Why, one wonders, should
this be?
The simple answer is that it is a measure of the influence in parliament
(and thus on the Treasury) by various lobby groups. The 'road lobby', for
example, has been well documented by New Scientist's Mick Hamer in his excellent
book Wheels within Wheels. This group of motor, road and oil industry interests
is very rich and very powerful. It has its own tame group of MPs within
parliament to influence public spending on company cars and roads – and
even has the money to entertain civil servants in a way which the rail lobby,
if it exists, does not. The farmers, still largely composed of rich landowners,
have similar influence within government. Indeed, many MPs are farmers and
are thus naturally inclined to support national spending which benefits
themselves and their colleagues.
A general rule in Britain is that one can obtain a handy measure of
the political influence of any group by analysing the amount of television
time devoted to advertising its products. The pet food manufacturers are,
by this calculation, very powerful. The reason we do not have a sensible
dog-licensing scheme in this country is because dog licensing = fewer dogs
= less pet food sales. The makers of detergents are also incredibly powerful
by this calculation and are the reason why water pollution standards are
lax here. Tighter standards = lower sales of high-profit washing powders.
Simple. So nonclinical university researchers and teachers are poorly paid
because we lack the resources to manipulate discussions, which affect our
pay in Westminster and Whitehall. Clinical university staff, on the other
hand, are paid much better simply because many MPs are doctors and are likely
to move in social circles in which their ear is effectively bent by their
Reforming our mechanism of government seems too large a subject to be
treated properly within the august pages of Forum and is, of course, unlikely
to be something which can happen rapidly. So I suggest that the most effective
way for the universities to obtain their just deserts is to play aggressively
within the existing system. There's no point in just lobbying individual
MPs to press for more funds for the universities when, in half-an-hour's
time, they are due at a huge lunch hosted by the National Farmers' Union
or at a cocktail party given by the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders.
So universities and concerned organisations have to start doing something
they may previously have viewed as anathema. They have to start paying MPs.
It doesn't matter what political colour these individuals are so long as
they have a chance of election. And if and when elected the bought MPs continue
to be paid a healthy whack (as 'consultant' or 'adviser') only so long as
they exert suitable pressure within the corridors of power. Many unions
'sponsor' MPs. Many companies appoint MPs 'Directors' – not because of the
individual's expertise in the business of that union or company, but because
of influence exerted on behalf of that union or company.
It is a mistake to believe that logical pleading to pay academics adequately
will improve our pay. The only way in which we can or will be paid the money
we deserve is if we first spend a little money buying our way into power.
In other words, keeping John Hardy's hands dirty in a British lab means
getting our hands a little dirty too.

Tuesday's Show & Tail - Smell a Rat? or - a BOMB?!?
Giant African pouch rats are performing a serious task: sniffing out deadly landmines.
The rats weigh between 0.7 and 1.5 kilograms and measure 30 to 40 centimeters in length, excluding the tail.
They are especially suited for mine detection because they have to use their sense of smell to locate their food supplies, which they store underground. They're also easily motivated by food as a reward and are nocturnal, so they tend to be easy to manage during the day.
It takes two human "deminers" a full day to clear a 200-square-meter minefield. With the help of a couple of pouch rats, they can finish the job in 90 minutes. So far, the rats "have helped re-open almost two million square meters of land" in Mozambique.
The cost of fully training each rat at about $8,400.
Oh, and they only work Monday through Friday. On weekends, they play.

Death of infant is first Zika-related fatality in Texas
HARRIS COUNTY, Texas - The first death related to the Zika virus in Texas was confirmed Tuesday by Houston-area officials, who said a newborn baby girl passed away as a result of the disease.
Harris County Public Health (HCPH) spokesperson Francisco Sanchez said the baby's mother traveled to Latin America during her pregnancy, where it is believed she became infected.
The baby had been born with birth defects, including microcephaly, and died shortly after being born, officials said.
Officials took care to emphasize that the death was travel-related, and that there were no signs the disease was being carried by local mosquitoes, as is currently the case in southern Florida.
Umair A. Shah, Executive Director of HCPH, said in a statement: "While this is a travel-associated case, we know that prevention is key to reducing the risk of Zika virus infection.Harris County Public Health continues to actively work on protecting the community from mosquito-related diseases, but individuals must also protect themselves from getting bitten by mosquitoes locally and abroad."
CBS Houston affiliate KHOU reports that over the weekend, Texas Gov. Greg Abbott detailed the state's efforts to be prevent the spreading of Zika.
"I directed the Texas Department of Health Services to work closely with our local partners as well as with our partners at the Center for Disease Control to prevent a Zika outbreak here in Texas as well as to prepare the strongest possible Zika response plan," Abbott said. "We have assembled millions in state and federal funds to help attack the problem."
More than 7,300 Americans have been diagnosed with Zika, including 1,825 in the continental U.S. and Hawaii, according to the CDC.
In Florida, at least 17 people have been infected with Zika spread by mosquitoes, mostly in a small, trendy neighborhood in Miami. So far, officials have not reported any Zika-related deaths there. However, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has warned expectant mothers to steer clear of the city's Wynwood neighborhood.

People who are seen struggling with any back condition commonly complain about the non–usage or lack of non-invasive means of treatment. Some options that are generally available are physical therapies, injections, pain relievers and most daunting of all the back surgery.
Some Spine therapies will soon be on the horizon for patients that often gets stuck between non-invasive care and risky spinal procedures. Some of which are already a part of the market as offering while some of them still need to go a long way. Meanwhile, you need to educate yourself to lead to the better decision of whether or not you want to be a victim of invasive treatment culture in near or distant future. There are certain benefits that come with non-surgical treatment options. Let's compare some non–invasive treatment modalities and see their effectiveness.
Backrack™ Spinal Decompression Device
Backrack™ is a unique product for back pain relief. It doesn't only mask the symptoms of back pain but directly targets the causes by decompressing the spine so you can expect lasting results. Based on patented Backrack™ technology, the Backrack™ device is designed to treat all forms of back pain at home. By following a specially designed program of exercises, you can treat cervical, thoracic and lumbar regions of your spine with NO SIDE-EFFECTS at all! Please click the image below to learn more about the Backrack device.
OTC Pain Relievers
A treatment option for the back pain is the Over–the–counter pain relievers. These include medications like naproxen, ibuprofen, and acetaminophen. These are known to be effective in treating pain and muscle associated with lower back swelling. But OTC will address and remove symptoms that are related to nerve compression and disk problems. You might need to see a doctor if your back doesn't heal after a few days of resting and OTC's analgesics.
Prescription Medications
You will be prescribed with stronger medications by the doctor all to relieve chronic lower back pain that persists after using OTC medications.
Certain antidepressants, narcotics, such as codeine, anticonvulsants are also used as a treatment option for lower back pain. Sciatica Nerve Pain results from a bulging disk is a condition that is difficult treating with oral medications.
Exercise mays trike your mind as the only last treatment option on an episode of a backache. However, physical activity should be the topmost consideration if you are looking to recover quickly from your aches. Muscles in the abdomen and back significantly get strengthened indulging in core exercises. These include pelvic tilts and bridges. The stronger these muscles the lesser the pain experience.
National Center for Complementary Alternative Medicine published study results revealing results of people who adapted yoga poses lessened their pain and uplifted their mood after six months. Other alternative choices to maintain a healthy back and weight are swimming and walking. Excess weight is deadly for the spine putting increased pressure on the joints.
Traction, Ultrasound, and TENS
If your back doesn't seem to recover in response to conventional treatments. You are required to switch to alternative options. Traction is a system of weights that help align the spine and ultimately support slipped disks shift back to original position.
Ultrasound massages the soft tissues around the back all by passing sound waves that significantly warms the muscles. This results in relaxation and quicker healing of these muscles.
Nerves can be stimulated electronically by placing electrodes on the skin. This fall under Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS). This is a direct blockade of signals that tend to travel through nerves. The doctor can be asked about these treatment options.
Numerous Studies reveal benefits that come up with Tai Chi. Benefits such as mental and physical. One can enjoy the benefits of Tai Chi when they are not exercising such as an improved posture over the course of the day.
Tai Chi has long ago demonstrated its applications in the prevention and treatment of back pain. It should be noted Tai Chi is non-invasive, relatively cheap and easy on the spine. That's why people on back pain are giving it a try as an adjunct approach to managing the back pain. Further benefits of Tai Chi includes no requirement of expensive equipment and its application of practicing it anywhere.
Psychological Therapy
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is a form of Psycho-therapy. It is a combination of 10 to 20 meetings with the therapist. Cognitive Part of CBT is focusing on your thoughts while the behavioral part defines focusing on the actions.
Your therapist analyzes the negative feelings and thoughts that strike you when you are on a back pain episode and help you recognize them. Then your therapist teaches how you are going to cope with these negative thought patterns. This is done by replacing them with helpful and healthy actions. Switching thoughts from negative to positive works a great deal to alleviate back pain.
If you want to benefit from the CBT therapy your treatment goals should be realistic. You should get treatment in steps. This can be watching your friends and motivating yourself to start exercising. Seeing a couple of friends and take short walks is helpful to start things. But it is not realistic to reconnect with several friends at once and walk for a distance of 5 kilometers right away in your first outing. Exercise is a great way to deal with issues such as chronic pain.

Maus is a hard graphic novel for what it tells, and while you read it – and you know everything about that history because is a school topic and there is the International Holocaust Remember Day – it feels unreal and you ask yourself how it is possible that men – men and women like you, what difference should it be? – were able to create something so organized and horrible and cruel [and "The third wave" shows how easy is to recreate it all].
Maus is not only the memory of Nazism and concentration camps, it is also the love for a father willing to survive with and for his family, who is idealized and worthy but with all his weaknesses.
Maus is also the love between a man and his wife and the increase of awareness about a piece of history and about the writer himself: it's a story speaking also about its author who shows his weaknesses and doubts to his readers.

If you're any human, then you should be in a position to agree that we all need to treat the elderly with respect. They've done their part, and it gets really awkward when someone tries to bully an elderly person. Well, after this, no one will ever want to play bad-ball with a sassy old lady. You'll love this!
In the video, you see an old lady trying to cross a road, but then a car stops right in front of her while she's halfway through. But this driver isn't the courteous type, so he decides that it's a really good idea to keep honking the horn for the lady to cross over fast. What he seems blind to, is the clear fact that this is an elderly lady with trouble walking in speed. She's trying her best, but this crack-head just won't let her cross the road in peace. At one point, she gets enough of his nonsense!
If you haven't seen an angry old woman, you will today. This lady won't get bullied by anyone on the road. What she does next is absolutely hilarious. The driver couldn't even believe it. You must see this!
This is worth of a SHARE on Facebook. Drop a comment too!

In his wildest dreams, Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador could never have imagined that he would be bailed out politically by a Republican administration in Washington. Help from President Trump was probably even further from the mind of the left-wing demagogue from the southern Mexican state of Tabasco.
Yet that's exactly what has happened, and Mexicans are likely to pay the price.
North America breathed a sigh of relief Friday evening when President Trump backed off his threat to slap a 5% tariff on goods from Mexico in retaliation for alleged Mexican complicity in the Central American migrant surge at the U.S. southern border. The tariff, Mr. Trump said, could have gone as high as 25% by October if Mexico didn't adequately, in his opinion, stem the migrant flow.
In return for having the tariff "indefinitely suspended," Mexico has agreed to militarize the country using Mr. López Obrador's newly created National Guard, which is under military command. The effort will start at the southern border, though where it will end is anybody's guess.
Mr. Trump has claimed victory in his tariff gambit. But it's unclear how effective the promised troops will be at stopping migrants. The main causes of the crisis are liberal U.S. laws and procedures for claiming asylum, which attract migrants from Central America and other places. Congress has refused to pass reform. But markets work, as more than a half-century of a failed war on drugs proves, and the wild Guatemalan border will not be easily sealed.
Meanwhile, AMLO, as the Mexican president is popularly known, also won, though insidiously. The career politician with an authoritarian bent is a backer of Venezuelan dictator Nicolás Maduro. Since taking office in December, he has been cozying up to the military. Now he pockets more power, and with the blessing of Washington. This is a setback for the rule of law.
President López Obrador initially had very high approval ratings. But they began falling when Mexico's economy slumped in the first quarter, and his attacks on the press alienated even some of his most ideologically sympathetic constituents. Mexicans who were worried about the strongman instincts of their socialist president gained hope that the slowdown would force him to exercise greater restraint.
Then came Mr. Trump's May 30 threat, and Mexicans rallied behind their president. A poll by the Mexican daily El Financiero last week found that "84% of Mexicans believe that, faced with pressure" from Mr. Trump, "the country should remain united and support" AMLO.
Mr. López Obrador knows how to play politics. In the earliest months of his presidency he encouraged the migrants before taking a more practical stance. In the face of standard Trump hyperbole about Mexico, he calmly sent a delegation to Washington to negotiate. His base is praising the deal, though had it been sealed by an AMLO opponent they would have vigorously denounced it. His opposition is happy because free trade is saved.
An AMLO rally Saturday in Tijuana was originally billed as "an act of unity to defend the dignity of Mexico and in favor of the friendship with the people of the United States." After the two sides came to agreement, it was changed to a "celebration" of the deal-and of the new life that Mr. Trump breathed into AMLO's presidency.
For migrants nothing has changed. Many ask for asylum when they really just want to work. Greater legal access to the U.S. labor markets for Central American workers would alleviate some of the asylum backlog and resulting mayhem at the border. But a more generous immigration policy is dead in the water in Washington.
As the Migration Policy Institute observed in April, the administration has also played a role in propelling the migrant influx. "The start-and-stop nature" of its "efforts to deter asylum seekers has had the opposite effect, seemingly spurring on prospective migrants to journey to the United States before policies harden further."
Blowing up the North American economy to solve the migration crisis never made sense. Before the North American Free Trade Agreement, the average tariff for Mexican goods entering the U.S. was only 4%. Twenty-five years later, North America is a highly integrated productive colossus that depends for its efficiency on seamless cross-border supply networks.
This deepening integration has produced many economic and security successes, including a rising middle class in Mexico, fewer Mexican migrants heading north, more security collaboration on the continent, and a globally competitive U.S. auto industry.
To continue, North American free trade needs certainty, and Mexico needs to nurture stronger, independent institutions. Mr. Trump has undermined both goals by threatening tariffs and empowering Mr. López Obrador. The matter is settled-for now. But the deeper scars on Mexico left by the mercurial U.S. president won't heal so quickly.

Dr. IssamInjaq
As summer approaches and the weather gets warmer, children may suffer diarrhea and vomiting. Diarrhea is known as a change in the stool where it is discharged from the bowels frequently and in a loose and liquid form. Other changes include a change in the color and smell.
Normal children poop once to twice a day and the stool is solid and yellow. In diarrhea, however, the color turns green or blackish and the child goes to the toilet four times or more every day.
Diarrhea could be chronic or acute.
Chronic diarrhea lasts formore than 14 days. Reasons for this kind of diarrhea are different from those causing the acute diarrhea. If not treated properly, acute diarrhea could turn into chronic diarrhea, causing weight loss and a delay in the child's development.
Acute diarrhea, however, is usually a result of infectious agents. Diarrhea pathogens differ between summer and winter. In winter, for instance, diarrhea is usually caused by filterable viruses, while in summer, it is caused by germs or bacterial toxins, i.e. food poisoning.
Causes of Gastritis:
Gastritis occurs when pathogens reach the stomach and intestines orally. It is usually caused by food or water contamination or hand germ contamination. These germs exit the body via the stool, and spread to infect other children, especially in summer.
Diarrheais often accompanied bythirst and the need to drink water, but the patient may not be able to drink water because of vomiting, which leads to dehydration, the most dangerous aspect of diarrhea.
Water makes up a significant percentage of the body, especially for children. Losinglots of body liquids due to diarrhea and failure to compensate this loss because of vomiting or lack of absorption in the intestines leads to dehydration and lack of water content in the body, resulting in other problems such as hypotension and tachycardia. Body minerals could also be affected, which could cause disruption in functions of some body cells.
Diarrhea and Vomiting Treatment
The main course of acute gastroenteritis treatment is giving the patient fluids and normal saline.
In case of diarrhea not accompanied by vomiting, where the loss of liquids is limited or medium, the loss can be compensated by drinking water and fluids.
Sachets of minerals necessary to compensate for loss of fluids in the body are commercially available. They are diluted by water and given to the children. Other solutions are ready-packed and sterile, and can be given directly to children.
However, when diarrhea is accompanied by vomiting, or when the dehydration is acute and the loss of fluids is fast, the compensation must be fast as well. The patient must be hospitalized and the fluid is given through an intravenous line. The patient must remain under observation.
In addition to water and fluids, patients might receive medication, like anti-vomiting, antipyretics and antispasmodics, to relieve abdominal pain. Antibiotics, however, must be prescribed by a doctor, depending on the case. While many cases of acute gastroenteritis are cured without antibiotics, some require antibiotics when the illness is severe, or if the patient is a baby, suffers immunity disorder or malnutrition, or when pathogens attack the lining of the stomach. Giving the patient antibiotics when not necessary may lead to undesired side effects.
An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Hygiene, hence, is the best way to prevent infections of acute gastroenteritis. Washing the hands after using the bathroom or changing the baby's diaper or before preparing or eating food is essential for prevention. Children must also be prevented from eating uncovered food, which is exposed to insects; especially flies that increase in the summer and transmit pathogens. Poor food preservation helps boost the proliferation of germs and pathogens, which can survive cold temperatures in the refrigerator. When exposed to heat, the germs proliferate and enter the body via the gastrointestinal tract, leading to acute gastroenteritis.

Consumers can be really quick in posting a negative review online, much more often than a positive one. Negative reviews can be useful in helping you out with improving your business and doing better in the future. But, it can also dent your public image to a great extent. Hence, you will have to deal with a negative review promptly and tactfully. Negative reviews can have a very bad impact on your business and can be hurtful to deal with, personally.
However, you can turn the situation around. Here's how to react to negative reviews to save your business from bearing the brunt-
- Decide whether or not to respond
Some reviews are not worth your time. If they're posted by someone whose feedback is clearly illogical, it is better to ignore such feedback. When looking at a negative comment, try to understand the real motive behind posting it. Is it a real incident or is it someone with the motive of simply trolling the company?
- Respond ASAP!
When you spot a genuine negative review, responding to it promptly makes the customer feel privileged; as it shows them that you care and value their opinion. Answer your unhappy customers and accept that you have made a mistake. Offer your apologies, even if you think that the negative review is exaggerated. Whatever be the case, evade getting into an argument with your unsatisfied customer, as it will only make things worse.
- Tackle the issue offline
Certain situations cannot be handled online; in such times, it is better to resolve the issue offline. Depending on the situation, you will have to judge if it would be better to reply privately via email or phone, or online. Acknowledge the post, then ask politely for their contact information or provide your own contact, to tackle the issue offline.
- Resolve the issue
In case the customer's concern is justified, offer them some compensation. For example, you can replace a product the customer is unsatisfied with or offer a better service another time. Even if the compensation that you offer doesn't satisfy the customer, it will at least work as goodwill and put you as a company that values and cares for its customers.
- Diagnose the fault
Once you are done sorting out everything with the customer, try to understand why the mistake occurred. And if there's a fault at your end, try to improve on it, so it doesn't happen again.
The best way to resolve negative feedback is to listen to what's being said, not to get defensive, and to politely respond to it.

The OnePlus 2 may be an aging device, but it still has plenty of life left in it. When launched last year, the device was one of best handsets one could buy at that price, and even though it is all set to be superseded by the upcoming OnePlus 3, the device still remains a pretty decent one in its own right. That being the case, the permanent price-cut the device received earlier this week should have already made it a pretty popular option among unlocked smartphone buyers, but the latest offer on the device from Amazon U.K. may well be that final little nudge some buyers in the country needed to finally take the plunge and put down the cash for the second-generation flagship smartphone from the Chinese tech startup.
Amazon Prime members in ten regions around the U.K will now be able to get the OnePlus 2 delivered to their doorsteps in under an hour, as part of the Amazon Prime Now service. Users will also be able to choose two-hour delivery or same-day delivery options, both of which will come free of charge, but the orders have to be placed between 10 in the morning to 10 at night for Amazon to fulfill them within the stipulated timeframe. For the millions who aren't lucky enough to live in one of the ten regions where Amazon is offering free same-day delivery, fret not, because the world's largest online retailer will just take one extra day to ship your product, meaning, you'll get your consignment delivered to you the very next day, absolutely free of any additional charges.
Coming to the economics of it all, the current price of the 64 GB model of the OnePlus 2 is around £249 ($364) on Amazon U.K. after the aforementioned price-cut that was announced last week. What's important to note here is that it isn't just the OnePlus 2 that received the aforementioned price-cut, but also the mid-ranged OnePlus X that was launched last year by the company. So anybody looking for a bargain may well want to pick up one of the current-generation devices from the company that are now being sold at prices that are significantly cheaper than when they were launched.

Busscher, who was senior vice-president and director of FleishmanHillard's Brussels arm, starts her new role on 17 August. She will report to Michael Stewart, president & CEO, Europe & CIS, at Edelman.
Busscher replaces Martin Porter, who left earlier in the year to work at the European Climate Foundation. Stephanie Lvovich, global chair of public affairs, has been covering the role in the interim.
During her time at FleishmanHillard, Busscher was client relationship manager to the office's biggest accounts and led the energy practice that she developed, working with clients in the natural gas industry, refineries and LPG sector.
She was also responsible for rolling out the office's in-house design and creative capabilities. Before FleishmanHillard, she held a number of roles at the privately owned Brussels government relations and public affairs group, PA Europe.
Stewart said: "As we continue to invest in key political and business hubs like Brussels, senior talent such as Esther will strengthen Edelman's ability to continue to build a dynamic offering to service our global clients across the European region. In her new role, Esther will be working closely with Stephanie Lvovich to deliver a cutting-edge public affairs offer."
Busscher said: "It is exciting to join the firm that has pioneered public engagement – the intersection of public affairs and public relations. I've always admired Edelman's thought leadership in this area and can't wait to co-operate with such experienced practitioners in Brussels and around the globe. It is an honour to unlock the potential of such an impressive network."

27 Jul Signature Travel Network
Tuesday, September 23, 2014
You've probably never heard of the Signature Travel Network, but that's ok because you know me!
Following is an interview with Ignacio Maza, the Executive VP of Signature and why you don't need a Platinum credit card to get the most bang for your buck!
|Standing with Ignacio Maza, Exec. VP of Signature Travel Network
Please describe briefly what the Signature Network is:
- Signature is a member-owned travel cooperative network, launched in 1956 generating $6 billion in travel sales per year. (J.B: in other words, it's huge!)Signature has preferred supplier relationships with hotels, cruise lines, tour operators, destination specialists and car rental companies. If your travel agent is part of Signature then you benefit. (JB: Amen)
Why is Signature important to the consumer?
- If booking through a Signature agency, not only are the rates competitive, but you will receive special hotel perks including complimentary daily breakfast, (JB: Some breakfasts are so expensive, you have to take out a loan) dining and spa credits, upgrades and early check in, just to name a few. Even cruise passengers receive value for their money: complimentary car and driver in port, onboard spending credits, special experiences, upgrades and special pricing on many sailings. Best of all, when you book with a Signature agency you are a VIP, not a number. (JB: my loyal clients, the only number you will ever be is #1!)
What amenity do you think consumers most want?
- If staying at a hotel – breakfast for 2 daily
- If taking a cruise – a car and driver.
As a traveler, what value amenity do you most appreciate?
- The VIP service I get through my Signatureconsultant, who ensures that all my needs are communicated and acted on ahead of time. I am a light sleeper, so I appreciate having a quiet room, for example. Being able to get a good night's sleep is #1 with me.
What are your 3 most important factors in choosing a hotel that you are staying in?
- Location, service, value for money
What's trending in travel right now and what are some of the emerging destinations travelers are interested in?
- Mexico's Riviera Maya, South Africa, Peru, Colombia, Costa Rica and Croatia are extremely popular right now. (JB: Jose Ignacio in Uruguay is so hot, it's on fire!)
We've noticed that the emerging destinations are Ecuador and Nicaragua in the Western Hemisphere. In the Pacific, Cook Islands and Fiji are on the rise and, in Africa, everyone wants to go to Botswana, Zimbabwe and Zambia. In Asia, Myanmar, Nepal, and Sri Lanka are on everyone's bucket list. (JB: Baku is the best kept secret.)
How often do you travel and have you been anywhere recently that is a true discovery or surprise?
- I travel, on average, twice per month.
- A true discovery this year – Ecuador. I spent 16 days in the mainland, and had a fantastic time exploring haciendas, hiking up to 17,000 ft in the Andes, visiting Quito's beautiful colonial churches and museums, experiencing the atmosphere of Cuenca, and blown away with Mashpi Lodge in Ecuador's cloudforest.
What destination is on your bucket list?
- Too many places to mention – but – on my 'short' list – Ethiopia, Myanmar, Lake Titicaca, Argentina's Northwest, Salvador Brazil, Fiji, Canadian Rockies. (JB: getting ready to go to Uruguay…look for me on Instagram!)

Black Tom Cassidy
Erik the Red is a member of the Shi'ar Empire.
Erik the Red was asked to gain access the space shuttle as part of D'Ken's grand plan to acquire the M'Kraan Crystal. When he learned that Lilandra was on Earth, he hired Juggernaut and Black Tom Cassidy to capture her. He was promptly chastised by Gladiator after his miserable failure before the Phoenix sent him back to the Shi'ar galaxy.
Erik was voiced by Lawrence Bayne.
Currently the only version of the character outside the comics.
In the Comics
His real name is Davan Shakari.
Cyclops used a supervillain persona named Eric the Red (note the different spelling) to infiltrate a villain group, before ever fighting Erik. Scott opened the question of if there was any connection between his chosen name and Erik's, but never found the answer. Magneto, whose real name is Erik, also used the name Eric the Red briefly when Gambit was on trial.

|Saw this big turtle up on the Hualapai Mountain Road.
|5 PM on the 28th of June. Up in "Cool" Kingman. Hit 120 down by the river today. Suppose to be hotter tomorrow.
|82 mile ride on Monday, more than half on dirt trails. Resting up at Hackberry store. We ended up doing the same route again on Thursday, looking for Kenny's lost license plate. We didn't fine it.
|Mango, Avacado, chili and Cilantro covered Tilapia. With some fresh Broccoli. Last dinner at Chili's before going on a juice diet.
|0 Calories, 0 Carbs. Karen would like this! At Bed, Bath, and Beyond.

|Leonard is the only other regular attending male in our class.
|A stop for a sip of water. It's a hot afternoon out here in the mountains
|We've been on some pavement, and mostly dirt. Here is the start of Hackberry Road where it takes off of Hwy 93. This is the intersection of OLD Hwy 93 which we just came down. It's not maintained and full of sand and broken out pavement. This road is 25 miles of farm land and just desert.
|The next 24 miles to the house is all pavement. The bikes got a little dirty.
|Ed, Carl and Kenny. 3 Harleys and a Half-a-Busa. Wednesday morning we rode down to Wikieup to stop here, have a water and ride back to Kingman. About 120 miles round trip. Since we're all on a diet, we don't get breakfast stops anymore.
|www.garlinhackney.com We went to Metcalf park today in Kingman. Great Rock-a-Billy band
|Several peole got up to dance. We even had some line dancing
|About a hundred plus people there. 95 degrees, but nice shade and a breeze. It was very comfortable

|Plaza Bonita. Had lunch here last Sunday in Kingman
|Reminds me of a story about a Cafe near a Bull Ring in Mexico
|Kenny and I had a nice relaxing ride out to the Hackberry Store this afternoon
|New stock of nice shirts. Too bad most of the good ones are for the Ladies! :-)

|Another German tour group on rented Harleys. The little "half a busa" was the only metric bike in the lot.
|Been by The Outpost MANY times, but never stopped until today
|Occasionally have Bike events here. Food, music, bikini bike wash, etc.
In yesterday's Kingman's Daily Miner newspaper the Health Dept. inspection results for several local eating establishments were posted. The Outpost was rated Excelent. So, wanted to stop and take a look.
|Interesting decor. and the place was spotless
|A new Maveric Gas Station/Deli on Route 66. Very nicely done, witha good selection of food and drinks. Large, very clean restrooms too.
|Saturday morning. I-8, 3 passes over 4000 feet between Yuma and San Diego. I'm on the way to La Mesa to visit my daughter Debra and her family.
|The camera didn't do justise to this beautiful Jacaranda tree next door to Debra's house
|This bowl was on the front steps. I thought it was lunch, but she said it's going into the compost barrel.
|6 Beautiful 4 week old puppies. This and another were my favorites. This will be a long haired Chihuahua mix.
|Totally a sweet little one!
|We played with all 6 until they needed a little rest. The small one in the middle is the other one I wanted. Although they are all cuties.
|Deb and her husband Jim have a lot of nice flowers and plants. He's now in the process of re-landscaping the front yard.
|All 6 telling me to take them home :-)
|Sausage and cheese stuffed peppers. Debra is a professionally trained cook...it certainly shows. We had a scrumptious lunch
|Son-in Law Jim.
|Both smoked and slow-cooked brisket, stuffed jalapenos, a very delicious, think maybe ginger flavored cabbage with other veggies in it, A could kinds of squash blended with spices and I don't know what else. Hot home made dinner rolls and Watermelon cake that Gran daughter Robinette made.
|The two favorites. I want them both!
|Last puppy picture. I only posted a few of the dozens I took :-)
|Jeff is my Grandson-in-law. Robinette had to work today so I missed her. Debra and Jim. This is the "clean up" after lunch. First time I've met Jeff, a fine young man. He's a senior Petty Officer in the Coast Guard.
|Pat and I usually eat here on Friday nights during the winter. Name recently changed from "The Mad Chef" to "The Copper Miner Kitchen"
|Amber hamming it up. She's our favorite waitress
|Same owner, same menu, same people, different sign.
|This was a planned motorcycle trip...but, since it was 116 degrees today, and tomorrow in Barstow 113, I decided to take the truck with the A/C this time.
|Mario is the park handiman, gardiner, and all 'round good guy. As soon as he saw a strange truck drive in he made a "bee line" to see who it was. There is a slight language barrier, but we get around it :-)
|Jim & KT's and ours next to it. The park it almost empty, but it well kept up during the summer.
|Our Tangelo tree is looking healthy again. Had a couple of bad years, although it had good fruit. Now a good balance of water and fertilizer and it's looking real good.
|Our back yard. There is a well kept putting green (not in the picture)
|105 a little before 11 AM. Got to 116 by 2 PM. That was from a digital sign in town, don't know what this one was reading. Probably higher since it picks up heat from the tin roof by afternoon
|We're fortunate to have two paved parking spots. The carport is covered on the other side. Looks pretty bare without our "beach" decorations. We put them in the storage room while we're gone for the summer.
|Our friend Redd just painted out the entire inside of his apartment. He has it looking nice.
|Redd is an OLD batchelor, but he takes pride in his apartment
|Went to Mexico. Sure looks different without all the snowbirds over here.
|Algodones is continually being upgraded. Every year it's more modern. I liked it the old way better.
|At my friend Jose's. These people are enjoying shrimp cocktails
|White cheese smoothering a burrito. Nice lunch.

|Since Jose has a lot of local customers, he's able to stay open all year. Many of the places close in the Summer when all the tourists leave. Had a nice time "South of the Border" today.

What are Floaters?
Have you ever noticed something swimming in your field of vision? It may look like a tiny worm, spot or transparent cobweb. When you try to take a closer look, it disappears, only to reappear as soon as you shift your glance. This is a common, usually normal, phenomenon known as a floater. While floaters may look like a mosquito or a live worm in front of you, they are not actually external objects in the world. In fact, they are particles that exist inside your eyeball.

I wanted to take a picture by my pumpkin, but apparently there is not decent light on my porch. I love this skirt! I bought it at target a few weeks ago, even though it was see through. I usually stray away from see through skirts or dresses because I don't particularly enjoy wearing slips underneath, but I was going through a floral stage and I saw no other option.
Update: turns out it's actually about 90 degrees outside. This weather, man.
