    Notes: The director reorientation of some nematic liquid crystals in the presence of both magnetic and electric field is described by a modified from of the Leslie equation. Proton nuclear magnetic resonance experiments observing static director orientations in different angles between the director and the magnetic field are described together with reorientation experiments driven by various electric fields. A new technique to measure Δχ/Δε is presented which gives direct access to the anisotropies without any influence of elastic properties. Using electric fields of different strength and in different angles with respect to the magnetic field the dynamic processes in liquid crystals can be investigated in a very flexible way. A number of experiments investigating the homogeneous director reorientation in the electric field is presented. As one result the rotational viscosity was determined. As a surprising result we found a homogeneous reorientation in the electric field and an inhomogeneous reorientation back in the magnetic field even though the initial angles between the director and the external field were the same. © 2000 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Genetic analysis has shown that the gap segmentation gene hunchback (hb) is a member of the genetic hierarchy involved in pattern formation in Drosophila. To identify the hb gene, we have mapped the position of hb mutant breakpoints within a chromosomal walk of the 85A region by genomic Southern blots and determined the transcription pattern of DNA from the walk. We detect a single gene within the domain defined by breakpoint mapping. We conclude that we have identified the hunchback gene because three mutations that inactivate hb physically interrupt or delete this gene. Northern analysis shows that the hb gene gives rise to at least five overlapping transcripts ranging in length from 2.6 to 3.5 kilobases. S1 nuclease and primer extension experiments demonstrate that the gene employs two promoters and three polyadenylation sites. The two hb promoters have different temporal specificities. Transcripts arising from the upstream promoter are detected from 0-12 hours of embryogenesis as well as in adult female and male RNA preparations. Transcripts arising from the downstream promoter accumulate only from 0-6 hours of embryogenesis. During the syncytial blastoderm stage, transcripts from the hb gene accumulate over a broad anterior and a narrow posterior domain. This pattern sharpens during the late blastoderm/early gastrula stage to produce an embryo with two stripes of hybridization anterior and one stripe posterior. Later, hb transcripts are detected within the ventral hypoderm in extended germ band stage embryos.

    Notes: A fifty-five gallon steel drum of a liquid organic peroxide pressurized and ruptured in the mix room of a manufacturing plant. The head of the drum blew off and the ejected material ignited. The resulting fire was extinguished by the building sprinkler system and operating personnel. Although there were no injuries, the fire caused significant damage in the mix room. The investigation of this incident, its likely cause, and the corrective actions will be discussed.
