Business sales and service transfers: when TUPE applies

Where the whole or part of a business is sold, or a contract for the provision of services is transferred, the Transfer of Undertakings (Protection of Employment) Regulations 2006 (TUPE) may apply.  If this is the case there will be an obligation to inform, and in some circumstances consult, affected employees. Failure to do this will usually mean staff are entitled to compensation.

Transferring employees’ employment contracts will transfer across to the new business on substantially the same terms and conditions, and any dismissals made because of the transfer which do not have a genuine economic, technical or organisational reason entailing a change in the workforce will be viewed as automatically unfair by an employment tribunal.

Given the risks, specialist legal advice should always be taken as Sarah Everton, employment law expert with Myers & Co Solicitors in Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire explains.

Where a business sale or service transfer falls within the ambit of TUPE, the requirements of the regulations will apply automatically’, says Sarah. ‘There is no right to contract out which makes taking legal advice at an early stage very important, particularly where the current business owner or service provider has suggested TUPE is not relevant.’

When will TUPE apply?

Whether TUPE applies will depend on the circumstances, but in theory it can apply to the sale of a business or a service transfer where the new service provider intends to continue undertaking the same activities.  For example, TUPE would apply to the transfer of a contract for hospital cleaning where the services to be provided by the new contractor would be fundamentally the same as those provided by the old contractor.

However, TUPE would not apply to a business sale which was effectively devised to secure equipment or property which the new owner had no intention of using for the same activities as the current owner.  Neither would it usually apply to a company share sale where the identity of the employing business remained the same.

What effect does TUPE have?

The main effects of TUPE, from an employment perspective, are:

  • All employees who work in the relevant part of the business being sold or transferred will automatically move over to the new owner or service provider. There is no right to pick and choose the employees you take and any attempt to do this which results in job losses could give rise to claims for automatic unfair dismissal.
  • Employees will transfer with their length of service protected and on their existing terms and conditions, except those terms relating to pension entitlement.
  • The new employer will step into the shoes of the outgoing employer and inherit existing employee-related liabilities, such as ongoing discrimination claims.

It is important to point out that, notwithstanding the prohibition on dismissing transferring employees, it is possible for the new owner or service provider to restructure the workforce after the transfer has taken place. However, if you choose to do this care must be taken to ensure that the process is fair and does not distinguish between transferred and existing staff. For example, if as a result of the transfer you now have two operations managers when you only need one, both managers must be included in the selection pool for redundancy.

It is also important to mention that although transferring employees must be allowed to transfer on their existing terms and conditions, it is possible for changes to be implemented later in certain circumstances.

What must employees be told?

Before the sale or transfer goes ahead, affected employees must be given certain information about the proposed deal.  Some of this is straightforward, like confirming the identity of the new owner or contractor.  However, other information is more difficult to deal with as it may require consultation with elected employee representatives or recognised trade unions.  Micro employers can inform and consult directly with employees. Consultation might be necessary if any mass relocation is required.

Failure to comply with the information and consultation requirements could leave you liable to pay damages of to up to 13 weeks’ uncapped pay for each affected employee.

What must the new and old owners or service providers tell each other?

The new owner or service provider has an obligation to tell the existing owner or service provider about any changes they propose to make in relation to transferring employees, including any plans to restructure and make redundancies.  The new owner or service provider may wish to query the number of employees suggested for transfer, particularly where there are concerns that excess staff are being offloaded.

The current owner or service provider must give the incoming business information about the transferring employees at least 28 days before the transfer takes place.  Failure to do this could result in a penalty of up to £500 per transferring employee.

For a confidential discussion about TUPE, or any other employment law matter, please contact Sarah Everton on 01782 525012 or email sarah.everton@myerssolicitors.co.uk.

ORLANDO, Fla. — If you've driven by the Dr. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts recently, you may have noticed a huge structure taking shape — and fast.

  • Dr. Phillips Center officials offer Steinmetz Hall construction tour
  • CEO: Isolation pads will help produce 'perfect sound room'
  • Person sitting alone should be able to hear own heartbeat

That building, on the north side of the performing arts center, will open in 2020 as the Steinmetz Hall. It was purposefully phased in order to raise the capital to build it to "the highest acoustical and aesthetic standards."

During a hard-hat tour Friday, Dr. Phillips Center President and CEO Kathy Ramsberger pointed out a few of the almost 700 isolation pads exposed next to the upright concrete.

"These pads isolate all vibration," she told us. "The goal is to have a perfect sound room. It's called an N1 (sound) rating."

In other words, the horseshoe-shaped concert hall will be so quiet that a person sitting alone should be able to hear his or her own heartbeat.

Steinmetz Hall will be 40 feet taller than the Walt Disney Theater, which houses the Broadway shows. But the new hall will have 1,000 fewer seats, at 1,700.

After the hall is completed, it will be professionally tuned for about six weeks.

Meanwhile, the Dr. Phillips Center now has its first executive chef, Jason Klingensmith. He was there to reveal new consessions for the 2018-2019 season.

Among them:

  • Bruschetta - Tomato cone, herb crema
  • Tuna Tartare - Sesame Cone, Yuzu Vinaigrette
  • Tuna Tataki Display - Sambol Hoisin, avocado cream
  • Chocolate Ganache Bites - Graham shell, Italian cherry puree
  • Mediterrabean Chicken - on pumpernickel
  • Thai Beef Wrap
  • Cheese & Charcuterie
  • Hummus - Tomato Jam and Pita Rounds
  • Truffle Dusted Popcorn
  • Holiday Cocktail - a peppermint-flavored vodka martini (coming soon)

The offerings are located on all three tiers of the Dr. Phillips Center. But staff says changes are coming soon, like having the food closer to the front of the lobby and the core of the building.

A Waco man will spend the rest of his life in jail for the rape of his 1-month-old daughter, jurors decided Thursday.

Patricio Medina, 27, admitted to a fellow inmate that he sexually assaulted his daughter in 2014 while high on methamphetamines, according to the Waco Tribune-Herald.

The inmate testified during a two-day trial that began on Tuesday and ended with three 80-year-sentences for Medina.

In 2014, a doctor who performed a routine checkup on Medina's daughter discovered 45 broken bones consistent with non-accidental trauma, reported KWTX.

Medical staff informed police, eventually leading to Medina's arrest in April 2017.

Medina was found guilty of five charges; one count of aggravated sexual assault of a child, two counts of injury to a child and two counts of endangering a child. The total sentencing for each of the counts adds up to 244 years in prison.

"The jury's verdict ensures that this toddler and all children will be safe from this predator for the next 80 years," Assistant District Attorney Gabrielle Massey said in a prepared statement. "Thanks to the work of CPS and Waco PD Crimes Against Children, the horrific first five weeks of this child's life will not prevent her from having a safe and happy future."

The child, who is now 4, reportedly lives with an adopted family in McLennan County.

Ascorbate Free-Radical Reduction by Glyoxysomal Membranes 1

  • Mark l. Bowditch
  • Robert P. Donaldson
Publication Date
Oct 01, 1990
  • Biology
  • Political Science

Glyoxysomal membranes from germinating castor bean (Ricinus communis L. cv Hale) endosperm contain an NADH dehydrogenase. This enzyme can utilize extraorganellar ascorbate free-radical as a substrate and can oxidize NADH at a rate which can support intraglyoxysomal demand for NAD+. NADH:ascorbate free-radical reductase was found to be membrane-associated, and the activity remained in the membrane fraction after lysis of glyoxysomes by osmotic shock, followed by pelleting of the membranes. In whole glyoxysomes, NADH:ascorbate free-radical reductase, like NADH:ferricyanide reductase and unlike NADH:cytochrome c reductase, was insensitive to trypsin and was not inactivated by Triton X-100 detergent. These results suggest that ascorbate free-radical is reduced by the same component which reduces ferricyanide in the glyoxysomal membrane redox system. NADH:ascorbate free-radical reductase comigrated with NADH:ferricyanide and cytochrome c reductases when glyoxy-somal membranes were solubilized with detergent and subjected to rate-zonal centrifugation. The results suggest that ascorbate free-radical, when reduced to ascorbate by membrane redox system, could serve as a link between glyoxysomal metabolism and other cellular activities.

Malignant melanoma.

  • Lang, P G Jr
Published Article
The Medical clinics of North America
Publication Date
Nov 01, 1998
PMID: 9889751

The incidence of malignant melanoma is increasing at a rate greater than any other cancer occurring in humans. In this era of managed care, patients with a suspicious pigmented lesion may first present to their primary care physician for evaluation. Therefore it is mandatory that the primary care physician be capable of distinguishing between benign and malignant pigmented lesions, know how to evaluate such patients, and know when to refer patients with suspicious or malignant pigmented lesions. Surgical removal remains the mainstay of treatment for patients with melanoma. Thus, to increase the cure rate for melanoma, both the public and nondermatologists need to be educated regarding the prevention and early detection of melanoma. Only in this way can the diagnosis of melanoma be made early before deep invasion has occurred and the patient placed at risk for systemic spread. In recent years, the surgical management of melanoma has become more conservative and rational. Limb amputation, arbitrary 5-cm margins of excision, and elective lymph node dissections are no longer performed. The recommended margins of excision are now based on objective pathologic and clinical data and are more conservative, and the sentinel node biopsy is now used to determine which high-risk patients should undergo a formal lymph node dissection. Although encouraging results are being seen with immunotherapy protocols, to date the only adjunctive therapy shown to increase survival in patients at high risk for systemic spread is alpha-interferon. With this drug, the improved survival is modest at best; it is expensive and a minority of patients can tolerate it in the doses recommended. Although response rates of 20% are seen with chemotherapy in patients with disseminated disease, these responses are short-lived, and there is no associated increased survival. Except for lentigo maligna, radiation therapy, even when its delivery is modified, still is useful only as an adjunct to surgery or for palliation.

Properties and Benefits of Vitamin K2

Only recently discovered, vitamin K2 has come to the attention of the international scientific and medical communities as a revolutionary aid in the treatment of cardiovascular disease and osteoporosis. Cardiovascular disease is the most common cause of death in most industrialized countries and is both caused and aggravated by many factors, including vitamin and mineral deficiencies, poor diet, lack of exercise, alcohol consumption, smoking and bad lifestyle habits in general, as well as genetics.

Osteoporosis occurs as a result of poor bone mineralization or bone demineralization and is aggravated by vitamin and mineral deficiencies, old age, hormonal imbalances and thyroid disorders, alcohol consumption and so on. Vitamin K2, which has only recently been discovered, has been found to help with both of these conditions and can be found in a variety of easily accessible foods.

Vitamin K2 properties

The vitamin K family is known to include vitamin K1 (phylloquinone) and vitamin K2 (menaquinones). The difference between the two is that vitamin K1 is found in great amounts in green leafy vegetables, vegetable oils and dairy products, while vitamin K2 is found in great amounts in foods of animal origin as well as fermented foods. For example, Natto, a traditional Japanese dish made from soybeans fermented with a probiotic called the hay bacillus, also known as the grass bacillus (Bacillus subtilis) is believed to be richest in vitamin K2.

According to the National Nutrient Database for Standard Reference, 100 g of Natto contains good amounts of calcium and provides us with 25% to 50% of the daily recommended allowance of iron, calcium, magnesium and zinc, not to mention a lot of vitamin K2.

While vitamin K1 is synthesized by plants, vitamin K2 is synthesized by animals from the first, meaning they are both natural forms of the vitamin. The group also includes vitamins K3, K4 and K5, but these are synthetic, with K3 exhibiting toxic effects in humans. Vitamin K2 helps synthesize proteins that help coagulate blood, maximizes calcium absorption in bones (and teeth), prevents artery (arterial) calcification as well as calcium deposits in joints and areas alike, boasting similar benefits to vitamin K1. But what should you eat to get your vitamin K2 intake? Here are the best 7 food sources of vitamin K2:

Vitamin K2 foods

1) Natto. This traditional Japanese dish is made by fermenting soy beans with a probiotic bacteria called Bacillus subtilis. Unlike other soybean products, Natto is recognized as a healthy food with beneficial effects on human health.

2) Aged cheese or hard cheese. This includes matured cheese made from sheep, goat as well as cow cheese. Highest concentrantions of vitamin K2 are found in matured goat and sheep cheese.

3) Fresh cheese or soft cheese. Again, made from goat, sheep or cow milk. Soft goat milk cheese and soft sheep milk cheese are richest in vitamin K2.

4) Egg yolk. Apparently, egg yolk is an excellent source of vitamin K2. Remember, however, that the healthiest are naturally-produced, free-range, organic eggs (see Benefits of Duck Eggs and Benefits of Turkey Eggs).

5) Liver. This includes goose liver, chicken liver, beef liver. Generally, liver is also a great source of protein and vitamin B12.

6) Chicken and goose meat. Vitamin K2 can be found in generous amounts in chicken breast and chicken leg as well as goose leg.

7) Kefir or milk kefir and buttermilk are said to be good sources of vitamin K2. The two milk products are a result of fermentation, hence their significant content of the nutrient.

Although a percentage of the scientific community advocates that humans can turn vitamin K1 into vitamin K2 at the intestinal level and thus do not require the latter, there are studies that argue against this. First of all, it has been shown that vitamin K2 production decreases greatly with old age.

Taking antibiotics is known to impede the synthesis of vitamin K2 at the intestinal level. Generally, antibiotics destroy gut microflora and prevent the synthesis of several essential nutrients, particularly B vitamins, including vitamin B12. Also, many people have a low intake of green leafy vegetables rich in vitamin K1 and thus cannot produce sufficient vitamin K2 either. Not to mention bowel disease and gastrointestinal disorders in general affect K2 synthesis immensely.

For these reasons, it is important to make sure your diet includes foods rich in vitamin K2. This contributes to improving your health and general well-being and brings about a wide range of long-term benefits such as the following:

1) Helps prevent heart disease. Having enough vitamin K2 in your diet can help prevent calcium deposits from forming on the artery walls around the heart, which represents an enormous risks for heart disease. It also prevents calcium from depositing on joints.

2) Decreases osteoporosis risks. Vitamin K2 plays an important part in calcium metabolism. Calcium is the principal constituent of bones and vitamin K2 improves bone health by ensuring that calcium goes into our bones, contributing to their mineralization and making them stronger and less prone to fractures.

3) Improves dental health. Vitamin K2 helps improve dental health by means of its involvement in calcium metabolism, ensuring our teeth receive their share of calcium.

4) Ensures proper blood coagulation. Similar to K1, vitamin K2 supports blood coagulation processes, preventing blood loss as a result of wound bleeding. Nevertheless, it is best to consult with your doctor prior to introducing vitamin K2-rich foods in your diet, especially if you are prescribed anticoagulant medication such as Warfarin or are at risk for blood clots and stroke. Vitamin K2 can, in such cases, increase your risk of developing blood clots as a result of it supporting blood coagulation processes.

Conclusion. Although its role in the human body and complete health effects are poorly understood, vitamin K2 has already proven it is an essential nutrient with a variety of great health benefits. Incorporating it into your diet can improve your health immensely, but be careful with it if you have been prescribed anticoagulant medication because, similar to vitamin K1, it also encourages blood coagulation and may lead to the formation of blood clots, especially when intake is high.

Get breaking news alerts and special reports. The news and stories that matter, delivered weekday mornings.
By Alex Seitz-Wald

RIVIERA BEACH, Fla. — Palm Beach County's ballot-counting machines are working again after mechanical issues caused by overheating delayed the ongoing statewide recount, the elections chief said Wednesday — but the county may still miss Florida's Thursday deadline.

"We're doing everything in our human power possible to make this happen," election supervisor Susan Bucher told reporters when asked if she would make the deadline.

Palm Beach County, the third largest in the state, has emerged as one of the biggest problem spots in the first statewide recount, with the other counties saying they expect to finish their recount in time, even Broward County, which has been plagued by other problems.

Bucher has faced a growing chorus of criticism, including from President Donald Trump, but she was defiant when asked about calls for her resignation.

"I'm working as hard as I can," she said. "You can see that I haven’t been home in three days. And so I don’t think that you’re going to find somebody else that has the dedication."

Bucher said counting equipment overheated Tuesday evening, causing an error in the count for some ballots, but that officials had successfully re-re-counted all affected ballots by Wednesday morning, and two outside technicians were on still onsite in case another problem arises.

Still, the machines sat dormant for several hours midday Wednesday as Bucher said to expect a "very long lull" in the count while workers reconciled ballots in one batch of votes before moving on to the next. In the county's cavernous elections warehouse, some employees could been seen hand-sorting ballots while another group appeared to sit idle at a long table along the wall.

Bucher has blamed out-of-date machines and tight deadlines that she said were better suited for small, rural counties than a large, dense one like Palm Beach.

"We didn't anticipate that we would have to run 100 percent of our ballots through these old machines," Bucher said. "We anticipated that we would have a pretty quiet midterm election, as we usually do."

In Deadly School Shooting, a Confession but Motive a Mystery

Suspect's family "as shocked and confused as anyone else"

    Top 4 Reasons to Go to ZooLights

    The mother of one of the 10 people killed at a Texas high school said her daughter recently rejected the romantic advances of the 17-year-old charged in the shootings, a possible motive for the violent tragedy.

    Sadie Rodriguez said her daughter, Shana Fisher, had made clear that she was not interested in Dimitrios Pagourtzis.

    "He continued to get more aggressive," Rodriguez told The Associated Press in an interview conducted Saturday via Facebook. "She finally stood up to him and embarrassed him."

    The incident took place one week before the shooting, Rodriguez said. Police have not yet said what might have motivated the attack.

    Hundreds Attend Vigil for Santa Fe Shooting Victims

    [DFW] Hundreds Attend Vigil for Santa Fe Shooting Victims

    Hundreds attended a prayer service and vigil Friday evening for those killed and wounded in the Santa Fe High School mass shooting.

    (Published Saturday, May 19, 2018)

    Asked about Rodriguez's allegation, a lawyer for the Pagourtzis's family said he hadn't heard about any such interaction between Pagourtzis and any of the victims and therefore couldn't comment.

    "That's news to me," said lawyer Nicholas Poehl, though he cautioned that he'd spent much of the day disputing false rumors about the teen's personal life. Earlier Saturday, Poehl issued a statement from the family saying that they were "as shocked and confused as anyone else by these events that occurred" and asked for privacy.

    "While we remain mostly in the dark about the specifics of yesterday's tragedy, what we have learned from media reports seems incompatible with the boy we love," the family's statement said.

    Representatives of the school district did not immediately respond to questions about Rodriguez's comments.

    A junior at Santa Fe High, Pagourtzis hid a shotgun and a handgun under his trenchcoat before opening fire in a first-period art class on Friday, according to an affidavit filed by police. The FBI announced Saturday that it had taken the lead in the joint investigation, at the request of local authorities.

    "He gave a statement admitting to shooting multiple people inside the Santa Fe High School with the intent on killing people," the police affidavit said. "Dimitrios advised he did not shoot students he did like so he could have his story told." The attack ended when Pagourtzis walked out of a classroom and surrendered to police.

    Authorities say Pagourtzis planned the killings, carried out with weapons owned by his father. Though Pagourtzis allegedly wrote about his intention to carry out the attack, authorities have not indicated a motive for the violence.

    Gov. Greg Abbott said Pagourtzis had planned to kill himself after the shooting, but that Pagourtzis told police "that he didn't have the courage to commit the suicide."

    Some Santa Fe High students indicated that Pagourtzis may have had one or more targets, though details were not clear. Breanna Quintanilla, 17, a junior, said she was in her art classroom Friday morning in what she described as a "perfectly normal day" when she heard gun shots.

    Quintanilla said when Pagourtzis first walked in, he pointed at one person and said, "I'm going to kill you." Quintanilla, who was wounded escaping the classroom, did not identify that student.

    At a news conference, Abbott said Pagourtzis had not previously been in trouble. "The red-flag warnings were either nonexistent or very imperceptible," he said.

    In the absence of a clear motive, attention turned to a hodge-podge of incendiary posts by Pagourtzis on social media, which were quickly removed when his identity first emerged. One Facebook post was a picture of a T-shirt reading "Born to Kill." Another showed a trench coat adorned with various pins associated with conflicting ideologies and Cthulhu, a mythical creature drawn from the work of horror fiction writer H.P. Lovecraft.

    School Shooting Incidents Since 2013 defines the incidents mapped below as any time a firearm discharges a live round inside or into a school building or on or onto a school campus or grounds, as documented by the press and, when necessary, confirmed through further inquiries with law enforcement or school officials. Incidents in which guns were brought into schools but not discharged are not included.

    Last updated on May 18, 2018

    In the wake of the shooting, various reports that Pagourtzis was bullied have surfaced from his classmates. However, two Santa Fe High students who said they knew Pagourtzis said they had no reason to suspect that he was planning Friday's attack.

    Student Michael Farina said he had known the alleged gunman since fifth grade and considered him a friend. He recalled Pagourtzis talked about buying a gun "when I grow up," but never discussed his dad's guns or anything about his family.

    Farina said he and Pagourtzis also talked a lot about video games they liked, including so-called first-person shooter games. They'd talked about one, "Escape from Tarkov," as recently as lunch on the day before the shooting, he said.

    Farina did not recall Pagourtzis ever being notably angry.

    "He seemed relatively happy for the most part," he said.

    Horwitz reported from Washington and Zimmerman from Springfield, Illinois. Associated Press writers Eric Tucker in Washington, Paul J. Weber in Austin, Texas, and John Mone in Santa Fe, Texas, contributed.

Summer Outlook: Could Be One of the Hottest Summers Ever - NBC4 Washington

Summer Outlook: Could Be One of the Hottest Summers Ever

    Brace for a Very Hot Summer

    Storm Team4 is predicting one of the hottest summers ever. Chief Meteorologist Doug Kammerer has the summer outlook. (Published Thursday, May 31, 2018)

    D.C. has already had its first heatwave of the year, and Storm Team4 expects to see many more this summer.

    The current El Nino pattern is similar to that of 2012, and that summer was extremely hot.

    Like May 2012, this May goes down as one of the hottest and wettest ever.

    D.C. averages 36 days above 90 degrees per year. In 2012, there were 53 days above 90 and eight days above 100. It was the fourth hottest summer of all time.

    There are differences between 2012 and 2018 regarding the Atlantic basin. Temperatures in the Atlantic Ocean and the Gulf of Mexico are cooler leading into the summer, which could help with the heat and the number of tropical storms and hurricanes we get this season.

    It was a very active year in 2012 with 19 named storms, including one that had a major impact on the United States: Hurricane Sandy. But because of the cooler Atlantic and Gulf, Storm Team4 forecasts 10-14 named storms and five-to-seven hurricanes with one-to-three becoming major hurricanes. The chances of a strong storm hitting the U.S. will be lower this summer.

    But as for the heat, Storm Team4 predicts another summer in the Top 10 hottest, with 45-50 90-degree days.

Loss of AP-2alpha impacts multiple aspects of ventral body wall development and closure.

Author information

Department of Molecular, Cellular, and Developmental Biology, Yale University, New Haven, CT 06520, USA.

Human birth defects involving the ventral body wall are common, yet little is known about the mechanism of body wall closure in mammals. The AP-2alpha transcription factor knock-out mouse provides an exceptional tool to understand this particular pathology, since it has one of the most severe ventral body wall closure defects, thoracoabdominoschisis. To gain insight into the complex morphological events responsible for body wall closure, we have studied this developmental process in AP-2alpha knock-out mice. Several tissues involved in normal ventral body wall closure are defective in the absence of AP-2alpha, including those associated with the primary body wall, the umbilical ring, and the mesoderm of the secondary body wall. These defects, coupled with the expression pattern of AP-2alpha, suggest that AP-2alpha is involved in multiple developmental mechanisms directing the morphogenesis of the ventral body wall, including cell migration, differentiation, and death. There is a failure of migration and fusion of the body folds at the umbilical ring, as well as in the formation and migration of the abdominal bands and ventral musculature. Furthermore, the mechanism of cell deposition at the umbilical ring is disturbed. Consequently, the mesodermal compartment of the body wall is underdeveloped. We also suggest that AP-2alpha is required for signaling from the surface ectoderm to the underlying mesoderm for proper development and closure of the ventral body wall. These findings provide a fundamental understanding of how AP-2alpha functions in the closure of the ventral body wall, as well as offer insight into related human birth defects.

A strict correlation between dendritic and somatic plateau depolarizations in the rat prefrontal cortex pyramidal neurons.

Author information

Department of Neurobiology, Yale University, New Haven, Connecticut 06520-8001, USA.

One of the fundamental problems in neurobiology is to understand the cellular mechanism for sustained neuronal activity (neuronal UP states). Prefrontal pyramidal neurons readily switch to a long-lasting depolarized state after suprathreshold stimulation of basal dendrites. Analysis of the dendritic input-output function revealed that basal dendrites operate in a somewhat binary regimen (DOWN or UP) in regard to the amplitude of the glutamate-evoked electrical signal. Although the amplitude of the dendritic potential quickly becomes saturated (dendritic UP state), basal dendrites preserve their ability to code additional increase in glutamatergic input. Namely, after the saturation of the plateau amplitude, an additional increase in excitatory input is interpreted as an increase in plateau duration. Experiments performed in tetrodotoxin indicate that the maintenance of a stable depolarized state does not require inhibitory inputs to "balance" the excitation. In the absence of action potential-dependent (network-driven) GABAergic transmission, pyramidal neurons respond to brief (5 ms) glutamate pulses with stable long-lasting (approximately 500 ms) depolarizations. Voltage-sensitive dye recordings revealed that this somatic plateau depolarization is precisely time-locked with the regenerative dendritic plateau potential. The somatic plateau rises a few milliseconds after the onset of the dendritic transient and collapses with the breakdown of the dendritic plateau depolarization. In our in vitro model, the stable long-lasting somatic depolarization (UP state like) is a direct consequence of the local processing of a strong excitatory glutamatergic input arriving on the basal dendrite. The slow component of the somatic depolarization accurately mirrors the glutamate-evoked dendritic plateau potential (dendritic UP state).

Characterization of cytotoxicity-related gene expression in response to virulent Marek's disease virus infection in the bursa of Fabricius.

Author information

College of Animal Science, South China Agricultural University, Guangzhou 510642, People's Republic of China.

Cell-mediated cytotoxic responses are critical for control of Marek's disease virus (MDV) infection and tumour development. However, the mechanisms of virus clearance mediated by cytotoxic responses in the bursa of Fabricius of chickens during MDV infection are not fully understood. In this study, the host cytotoxic responses during MDV infection in the bursa were investigated by examining the expression of genes in the cell lysis pathways. Partial up-regulation existed in the expression of the important cytolytic molecule granzyme A (GzmA), Fas, NK lysin and DNA repair enzyme Ape1, whereas little or no expression appeared in other cytolytic molecules, including perforin (PFN) and Fas ligand (FasL), and molecules involved in DNA repair and apoptosis in the bursa during MDV infection. These results suggest that less sustained cytotoxic activities are generated in the bursa of MDV-infected chickens. The findings of this study provide a more detailed insight into the host cytotoxic responses to MDV infection.

Using fast-acting temperature-sensitive mutants to study cell division in Caenorhabditis elegans.

Author information

Columbia University, New York, NY, United States.
Institut Jacques Monod, Paris, France.

Fast-acting temperature-sensitive (ts) mutations are powerful conditional tools for studying transient cellular processes such as cytokinesis. Fast-acting ts cytokinesis-defective mutants are functional at the permissive temperature; yet show a fully penetrant loss-of-function cytokinesis failure phenotype when upshifted to the restrictive temperature. Fast-acting ts mutations thus allow functional tunability and rapid and reversible protein inactivation by simply shifting the temperature at precise times throughout cell division. In this chapter, we describe several techniques and discuss various approaches for harnessing the power of fast-acting ts mutants to study cytokinesis in Caenorhabditis elegans using both simple passive heat transfer and more advanced fluidic-based thermal control systems. We also provide detailed protocols for standard dissection, mounting, and imaging of early worm embryos.

Quality Improvement in Practice Training Team (QIiPT)

Infection Control and Decontamination

Effective decontamination and infection control is reliant on each team member knowing what they should do and having the skills to put this knowledge into practice.

In-Practice Training

The in-practice training session has been developed to help support all NHS practices, in Scotland, in implementing current infection control and decontamination guidance. The training session which lasts approximately 3hrs is a blend of PowerPoint presentation and practical. It will cover the following areas; hand hygiene, cleaning instruments, environmental cleaning and the testing and maintenance of decontamination equipment.

As the training is suitable for the whole dental team, all members of staff in the practice are requested to attend. The NES team will require access to clinical areas and the local decontamination unit. An area for the delivery of a short presentation and discussions is also required.

The main point of the training is to enable practices to look at their existing processes and to consider any changes required to improve and thus bring the practice closer to the requirements of current guidance. Formulating an agreed action plan detailing timescales and responsibilities is an essential component of the training.

The NES team will arrange a follow-up date around 8 weeks after the training to find out how the action plan is progressing and provide advice and support if there have been any difficulties in delivering the action plan.

All participating dentists, who are eligible, will be able to claim CPD allowance for the 3 hour session. Participation in a training session will be recorded in your CPD history in Portal.

To book the training session, please contact our Administrator on 0141 531 2642 or email

Short online programmes

Short online programmes which could be used as part of induction or as refresher training are available via the NES Portal at

SIPCED.webres -dkblue Resized

The aim of the pathway is to enable all staff to contribute to a healthcare culture in which patient safety related to infection prevention and control is of the highest importance.

We just sent a message to try to talk to aliens on another world

Artist’s impression of GJ273 star system
Waiting on a reply

Danielle Futselaar/METI

Are you there, aliens? It’s us, Earth. Astronomers have sent a radio message to a neighbouring star system – one of the closest known to contain a potentially habitable planet – and it’s nearby enough that we could receive a reply in less than 25 years.

“I think that’s an unlikely outcome, but it would be a welcome outcome,” said Douglas Vakoch, president of Messaging Extraterrestrial Intelligence (METI) International. METI is an offshoot of the more familiar SETI – the Search for Extra-Terrestrial Intelligence.

The target star is GJ 273, also known as Luyten’s star, a red dwarf in the northern constellation of Canis Minor, just 12 light years away. In March of this year it was discovered to have two planets. One of them, known as GJ 273b, orbits within the star’s “habitable zone” and could potentially harbor liquid water, and perhaps life.

Telling time

This missive to the stars was sent on the anniversary of the “Arecibo message,” a radio transmission beamed toward a distant star cluster in 1974 from the Arecibo radio telescope in Puerto Rico. The Arecibo message contained information on the planets of our solar system, the structure of DNA, a cartoon-like picture of what a human being looks like, and other basic information about the earth and its inhabitants.

This new message – beamed from an antenna in Norway over roughly eight hours over a three-day period in October – is simpler and may be more readily understood, Vakoch says.

It begins with information about counting, arithmetic, geometry, and trigonometry, and includes a description of the radio waves that carry the message, as well as a tutorial on clocks and timekeeping, to see if any potential inhabitants of GJ 273b have an understanding of time similar to our own.

Inviting our own doom?

The idea of intentionally sending messages into space has always been controversial, even within the SETI community. One issue is that it’s far from clear who should speak for humankind. Another concern is the potential danger of reaching out to extraterrestrials.

Physicist Stephen Hawking and others have warned against the possible repercussions of encountering an alien civilization – noting that such a civilization will almost certainly be far older and far more technologically advanced than our own.

“Ninety-eight percent of astronomers and SETI researchers, including myself, think that METI is potentially dangerous, and not a good idea,” says Dan Werthimer, a SETI researcher at the University of California at Berkeley. “It’s like shouting in a forest before you know if there are tigers, lions, and bears or other dangerous animals there.”

One ol the papers insinuates that the gas territory is worthless and demands that it bo shown up to the public.

A. telegrim io thd Inter OoMnfrotn Delphi give* the statement of • Mr. LandU concerning the Hammond matter. Mr. LandU was at Hammond at the time. The Inter Ocean special lays: Charles B. Landle, editor of the Delphi Journal, who la contesting vrith Judge William Johnston for the Republican nomination for Congress in this district, was asked today what he had to say about the alleged stealing of his train to keep hia adherents away from the Crown Point convention Saturday. Mr. Landla aald: "Wo engaged a special of the Erie railroad and paid {or it, the 'arrangement be- Ing that the train was to leave Hammond for Crown Point at 11:30 o'clock. Judge Johnson had also engaged a special, and his train was scheduled to leave at 10:30 o'clock. His train was held back until 11 o'clock, and when It pulled out It took our cars with it. The local, affont of the Erie Road wont to Crown Point on the Johnson train. One of my friends apoko to the agent about our train as the Johnson train was about to pu 1 out, asking him when it would bo brought up to,the station. "It is on the sidetrack right below the station, and will be backed up just as soon as this train pulls out," was the reply. He then boarded the Johnson train. Our train not appearing wo asked the men in the oHlce the reason. They said they knew nothing about any special train for Landis. They refused to telegraph the general offices of the Erie for us. They shut up like oysters, refused to answer any quos- tlors, and never hinted that the Crown Point train would return for us. We then adjourned to the opera house, and at 12:46, aftermost of our men had dispersed to their homes, the Erie agent sent word that the Johnston train had returned and was at our service. It was then fifteen minutes of the calling of the convention at Crown Point. We were eighteen miles distant, and the majority of our people had gone to their dinners. We had received no word that the convention would be held for us. ••I see that a special from Valpa. ralio to the Inter Ocean slates that 1 'the facts are that the friends of Judge Johnston engaged a train of five coaches to carry a delegation of 400 lo leave Hammond before noon. When the crowd arrived it was found that the train would not accommodate more than half the crowd, so four rr ore coaches were attached to the train, and were soon filled with men wearing Johnson badges.' "That is the truth exactly. The •four more coaches' that were attached were the Landis' coaches. They had been oald for by me. It seems totne that this admlsslcn by tome one who evidently "peaks lor Judge Johnston gives the oase aw»y. 1 'I am sorry thla thing occurred, but the Republicans of the Tenth District believe In fair play, and they will nominate me for Congress even though I did not get to Crown Point with my special train." Judge Johnston has on the other hand caused to be published the following affidavit: State of Indiana, Lake county ss: B. G Hover being duly sworn on oath sayB that he is the agent of the Chicago and Erie Railroad Company at Hammond, Ind.; that on the 10th day of May, I89a. the friends cf Judge William Johnston, candidate lor tne Republican Congressional nomination, engaged a special train of five cars from said railroad company to convey them to the convention held at Crown Point on May 12. 1894; that on the llth day of May, 1894, the frlenda of Hon. Charles Landie, also a candidate for the Congressional nomination engaged from said company » special train of three card to carry them to said convention; that tbo Johnston special was scheduled to leave Hammond at 11 a.m., and the Landis special was scheduled to leave Hammond at 11:30 a. m,; that when the friends of Judge Johnston assembled and boarded their train it was discovered that the train was not large enough to accommodate them, and they asked me for more oars, offering to ride in box cars or anything that would get them there, I wired the general offices at Chicago, and they instructed me to attach the Landis oars to the Johnston train and hurry to Crown Point; then return and convey the Landia crowd in the same car. I obeyed Instructions and the Johnston train left Hammond at 11:06 a. m., and returned and was placed at the disposal of Mr. Lan- and his friends at 11:26 p. m. Mr. Landls and hl« friends refused to take the train stating that It was too late to be of service to them. Non« of Judge Johnson's friendi asked me to (five them the Landis cars but only appealed to me to furnish them some means of transportation.
