  The exceptionally small size of JUNIOR COMPACT manipulators makes it possible to accommodate 8–14 manipulators (octuple–quattuordecuple patch-clamp recordings) at a standard microscope or to realize a 20-patch (viguple patch-clamp recordings) system on a 360° ring structure with a modified microscope.

  The problem was that schools began expecting dialogues to appear in students’ books. Conversations going backwards and forwards between learner and teacher. People wrote comments, which were responded to, then a new comment appeared, which again was responded to, and then a new comment was written ………. Marking had become not triple impact but quintuple, nonuple, quattuordecuple and maybe centuple impact marking. A well-intentioned idea had spiralled out of control.

  We further investigated the stomatal high-VPD response in a B2-, B3-, and B4-family Raf-like kinase quattuordecuple mutant, OK-quatdec (raf16/raf40/RAF24^Δ10/raf18/raf20/raf35/RAF42^Δ6/m3kδ1;raf3/m3kδ7;raf4/m3kδ6;raf5/raf7/raf8/raf9/raf10), in which the mutations in 14 Raf-like M3K kinase genes were confirmed, as described in Materials and Methods.

  He chunked a wedge 20 yards short of the green, advanced his next pitch just five yards, then half-shanked his 14th shot to the back-right of the putting surface — above the hole, which is not where you want to be on the sloping green. He cautiously tapped that putt but not cautiously enough; it nearly rolled off the green, leaving himself 15 feet back up the hill. A tidy two-putt from there and Birrell had made a 17. Yep, a quattuordecuple-bogey.
