And Donations to the College Appeal Amounting To£303,487 17S. Lod. Members of Council Have Subscribed £2,844 6S EDITORIALS 135 methods by which a family doctor can keep up to date. The ability to derive benefit from any of these methods is very unevenly dis- tributed. The differences in personal skills, intellectual ability and imaginative thinking are the hall-marks of individual differences between family doctors. The information offered in any of these methods may not suit the individual. In May of this year, the British Postgraduate Medical Federation is holding an important conference under the chairmanship of Sir Francis Fraser. The object of the conference is to discuss the value of various methods of the continuing education of the general practitioner. Representatives from the College have been invited to attend and to speak. It is essential that we obtain the accurate views of all members and associates, and we hope that everyone will complete and return the questionnaire enclosed with this number of the journal, in order that a carefully prepared statement can be published at a later date after all the answers have been analyzed.

Editor's Summary Both parties involved in the present matter were players in the pharmaceutical industry. The Appellants sought the upholding of a trade mark for the shape of a tablet, and a finding that the Respondent had infringed the trade mark. The Respondent imported a tablet with the same composition and shape as that of the Appellants. In the court a quo, the Respondent applied for the expungement from the trade mark register of the shape trade mark. The Appellants launched a counter­application for relief for trade mark infringement. The latter application failed while that of the Respondent succeeded. Held ­ Interested parties may apply to court for the removal of an entry wrongly made or remaining on the trade mark register. The first question posed by the Court was whether the Appellants' shape mark constituted a trade mark in terms of section 10(1) of the Trade Marks Act 194 of 1993 ("the Act").

  • Explaining Corporate Success Abstract
    Explaining corporate success: Britain’s best performing firms, 1949-1985 D.M. Higgins, S. Toms The York Management School Abstract The paper synthesises theories of competitive advantage in a dynamic framework to explain the determinants of corporate success. A model is presented linking the firm’s resource audit and dynamic capabilities with the rate of market growth. For the purposes of testing the model, an examination of the performance of all British quoted companies during the period is conducted with reference to achieved long run average rates of return on capital employed. The best performing firms are analysed in more detail and their strategies mapped according to the model criteria. Conclusions are then drawn on the possible strategies for achieving long run corporate success in terms of above average financial returns. Correspondence Steven Toms Joint Editor: Business History Professor of Accounting and Finance and Head of School The York Management School Sally Baldwin Buildings University of York York YO10 5DD Tel: (44) 1904-434122 Fax: (44) 1904-433 431 Email: [email protected] http://www.york.ac.uk/management/staff/StaffProfiles/SToms.htm 1 Explaining corporate success: Britain’s best performing firms, 1949-1985 1. Introduction Competitive advantage and more specifically sustained competitive advantage and its determinants, has become an important research topic in the business and management and industrial organisation literatures. Sustained competitive advantage (SCA) implies not just achieving superior returns, but achieving them over a protracted period of time. It is therefore surprising that the overwhelming majority of this literature has not explored the notion of sustained competitive advantage from a historical perspective.

  • The Founding of BRESA
    Volume II Appendices I – IV Appendix I THE CASE OF BRESAGEN Parcel 1: Radionucleotides Professor Robert Symons from the Biochemistry Department at the University of Adelaide developed a technique for the efficient production of 32P-labelled radionucleotides that was published in a leading scientific journal1 in 1977. These were radioactive compounds used to label DNA and RNA, and were widely used at the time in gene technology research. At the time, production of these radionucleotides was influenced by two factors: first, being radioactive and with a short half-life of 14 days, international shipping was difficult and costly. Second, manufacture was dominated by Amersham, a UK-based company, using inefficient technology, which kept prices high. This meant that increasingly, when Professor Symons had radionucleotides that were surplus to the needs of his own Department and its Centre for Gene Technology (also established in 1982), he increasingly began providing them for free to other laboratories in Australia. By the early 1980s, Bob Symons’s head of department, Professor Bill Elliott, suggested that rather than giving the radionucleotides away, he should set up a business. However, Bob Symons did not the patent the technique; as Allan Robins, a postdoctoral researcher at the time, commented, ‘this is back in the days when we were naïve academics. Nobody patented ideas, or we didn’t anyway, Bob didn’t’ (interview, 2007). 1 Nucleic Acids Research 1 According to the Bresa Product Catalogue (1984): BRESA [Ltd] was officially set up in [31] May, 1982 to develop and prepare for sale a range of high quality materials for use in gene technology.
