LEEDS, ENGLAND, October 12, 2012 (Press-News.org) The past two weeks have seen the UK hit by some of the heaviest rainfall in many years, with a month's rain falling in just 24 hours in some areas. Adverse weather can have a devastating effect on people's homes and businesses, and flooding and heavy snowfall can mean that getting from your home into the office is very difficult.
To enable your business to continue running whatever the weather, you should consider home working options. Allowing your employees to work from home instead of putting themselves at risk by trying to travel to work in bad weather is both safer and more efficient in adverse weather.
With the right business telephone systems set up, and with business mobile solutions and mobile broadband, you can equip your employees with everything they need for a small home office, at minimal cost.
Diva Telecom has the following advice on enabling home working at minimal cost to your business:
(1) Business Mobile Broadband for Home Offices - Mobile broadband for your employees can be easily accessible at their home office, simply by giving staff 3g internet dongles from your business account. These will charge internet use to your business account, and means your staff aren't relying on their own internet connection, which may be a slower speed and thus have an impact on productivity.
(2) Business Telephone Systems - Most business telephone systems now allow for call routing, which allows calls received on the usual office number to be redirected seamlessly through to a home office, with no difference for the caller. This service is often included as part of a business telephone package.
(3) Business Mobile Solutions - Many of your employees may already have a business mobile phone, so working from home and answering calls is no problem. Your business mobile solutions supplier should be able to advise on how to add additional phones to your account for other employees, whilst also managing your costs
For further advice on how to weather-proof your business and facilitate home working for your employees through mobile broadband, contact small business telecommunications supplier Diva Telecom on 08000 12 68 68.

Contaminated Steroid Puts Thousands At Risk for Fungal Meningitis, Death
2012-10-12
Twelve and counting. That's the number of people who have died as a result of the contaminated steroid injection produced by a Massachusetts drug compounding company. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control estimate that as many as 13,000 people may have been injected with the defective drug, leaving open the possibility that the number of people infected with fungal meningitis will increase well beyond the currently known cases.
Methylprednisolone acetate is at the center of the meningitis outbreak. It is a preservative-free steroid injection that was manufactured at the ...
Brain Injury Information Resources
2012-10-12
Receiving a brain injury diagnosis after a car accident, birth injury or other traumatic event is devastating. Both the injured person and his or her family have many questions and the future seems very uncertain. Fortunately, many informational resources are available for people with brain injuries that can make life easier.
Health care providers are often a good source of information. However, they can be rushed and unable to spend the time needed to address all your concerns. Community organizations provide brain-injured patients and their families with the help and ...
Rise in Pedestrian Deaths Has NHTSA Eyeing Vehicle Design Rule Changes
2012-10-12
In 2009, the number of pedestrian fatalities in America was at a five year low. However, by 2010, the number jumped by more than four percent to 4,300. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, about three-quarters of those deaths occurred in urban areas.
With America becoming increasingly urbanized, it comes as little surprise that more people are turning to travel by foot. Yet, despite technological advances, vehicle and driver safety have been unable to keep up. Pressured by a rising tide of pedestrian deaths, advocacy groups and federal regulators ...
White Collar Crime Prosecution on the Rise

As the U.S. economy shows signs of improvement, an increasing number of white collar crimes are being prosecuted across the country. According to a report by the Business Journal, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission filed 735 enforcement actions in the fiscal year that ended Sept. 30, 2011. This included 146 actions related to investment advisers and investment companies. Broker-dealers were involved in 112 inquiries. Both represented significant increases from 2010, and factored into the $2.8 billion in penalties levied by the SEC.

Transvaginal Mesh Considered High Risk by Federal Advisory Panel
2012-10-12
Last month, a federal advisory panel met to discuss the dangers of transvaginal mesh - which is often used when repairing pelvic organ prolapsed in women - and conferred about whether additional testing may be required for new transvaginal mesh products before they can be approved for use by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
Specifically, the FDA has proposed moving transvaginal mesh products into the highest-risk medical device class, otherwise known as Class III - meaning additional testing would be needed in the future before these products could be approved.

Wisconsin Child Custody: Every Child and Family Is Unique
2012-10-12
In the not-so-distant past, judges in custody disputes largely assumed kids would naturally do best living with their mothers full time while granting their fathers regular visitation. In the past couple of decades, gender-based stereotypes about parenting have mostly faded from state child custody laws. No longer is it presumed that the mother is automatically going to be the better child nurturer, nor is it assumed that a child living in only one parent's home with the other having visitation is always the right residential model for every family.
A Kid's Best Interest ...
Watch What You Post: Cops Increasingly Look for Facebook Evidence
2012-10-12
Facebook and other social media have become deeply ingrained in the lives of young people. With teenagers hungry for the attention of their peers, posting pictures, videos and other types of content that feature outrageous behavior, drugs, bongs and other paraphernalia, weapons, and gang signs can be an irresistible temptation. But, far too often, teens fail to recognize that on Facebook, the word "friend" is a fluid concept, and whatever ends up online can have a real impact on their future. These things can become evidence against you in a criminal prosecution ...

Wrongful Death in Missouri and Kansas
2012-10-12
A wrongful death lawsuit occurs when someone dies as a result of the actions of another person or company and his or her heirs seek compensation for the death of their relative. Just like any form of personal injury law, wrongful death suits may be based on negligence or intentional acts. There is more likely to be insurance coverage if the death was caused by someone else's negligence. An experienced personal injury attorney can help determine if there is negligence involved when negligence may not appear obvious. See our article on Personal Injury Law for more information.
There ...
What To Do After An Auto Accident
2012-10-12
Personal injury lawyers throughout Kansas City are flooded with hundreds of auto accident claims each year. Both the reasons for the accident (inattentive drivers, drunk drivers, distracted drivers, negligent drivers, etc.) and the extent of the damage they cause (from "fender benders" to devastating accidents causing large amounts of property damage, extensive physical or bodily injuries and even death) vary to large degrees.
Given the unpleasant reality of the large number of car accident victims we at Adler & Manson encounter each year, we've included ...
