Editor's Summary . Cases Referred to . Judgment . [1] Intellectual property ­ Trade marks ­ Registration of shape as trade mark ­ Where shape is not intended to be used to distinguish owner's products from those of another, it cannot be regarded as a trade mark ­ Application for expungement from trade marks register therefore allowed. 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").

The tenants live there, rent and rate free and receive a small pension. Funds are urgently required to complete a further ten Houses. Earlier houses, established 1915 which comprised the Bums House (in which the poet and Jean Armour began housekeeping 1788), Dr. John McKenzie's House and 'Auld Nanse Tinnock's' (the 'change-house' of Burns's poem 'The Holy Fair') were purchased, repaired and gifted to the Association by the late Mr. Charles R. Cowie, J.P., Glasgow and, until the new houses at Mossgiel were built, provided accommodation for nine ladies. They are now out-dated as homes but con­ sideration is being given to their being retained by the Association and preserved as a museum.

  • Former Fellows Biographical Index Part
    Former Fellows of The Royal Society of Edinburgh 1783 – 2002 Biographical Index Part Two ISBN 0 902198 84 X Published July 2006 © The Royal Society of Edinburgh 22-26 George Street, Edinburgh, EH2 2PQ BIOGRAPHICAL INDEX OF FORMER FELLOWS OF THE ROYAL SOCIETY OF EDINBURGH 1783 – 2002 PART II K-Z C D Waterston and A Macmillan Shearer This is a print-out of the biographical index of over 4000 former Fellows of the Royal Society of Edinburgh as held on the Society’s computer system in October 2005. It lists former Fellows from the foundation of the Society in 1783 to October 2002. Most are deceased Fellows up to and including the list given in the RSE Directory 2003 (Session 2002-3) but some former Fellows who left the Society by resignation or were removed from the roll are still living. HISTORY OF THE PROJECT Information on the Fellowship has been kept by the Society in many ways – unpublished sources include Council and Committee Minutes, Card Indices, and correspondence; published sources such as Transactions, Proceedings, Year Books, Billets, Candidates Lists, etc. All have been examined by the compilers, who have found the Minutes, particularly Committee Minutes, to be of variable quality, and it is to be regretted that the Society’s holdings of published billets and candidates lists are incomplete. The late Professor Neil Campbell prepared from these sources a loose-leaf list of some 1500 Ordinary Fellows elected during the Society’s first hundred years. He listed name and forenames, title where applicable and national honours, profession or discipline, position held, some information on membership of the other societies, dates of birth, election to the Society and death or resignation from the Society and reference to a printed biography.

  • 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.
