Hi Anne - Interesting question.  Our Human Resources department keeps records 
of annual reviews, which include annual competencies,  for 10 years following 
the separation of the employee from the system.
I'm curious what others are doing, and does it vary from state to state. Terri

Hey everyone, does the yearly employee competency assessments need to be kept 
for just 2 years or for the entire time an employee is there. I have some old 
ones I want to toss, but I just wanted to be sure. Thanks Anne

Re: [Histonet] Steel blade sharpening

[John Garratt via Histonet]

Way back 30 years ago when we moved to disposable blades I negotiated with the 
blade supplier to provide a blade holders for our microtomes for free. These 
blade holders replace the steel knife so you do not need to buy a new part for 
your microtome. If I remember right these blade holders were sold by Feather.

Good luck

[Histonet] Steel blade sharpening

[Hannen, Valerie via Histonet]

Good Morning all,

We  am coming out of the dark ages!!  We are going to be transitioning to 
disposable blades in the very near future. My main problem now , is that I may 
not get the equipment( disposable blade holder or new Microtomes)  that I

will need soon enough ( we are running out of compounds needed to sharpen these 
blades ourselves).

  I am waiting for review and approval of this equipment, so in the mean time I 
may need to send my steel microtome blades out to be sharpened.  We are on the 
East Coast of Florida ( @ 1 hour away from Orlando).

I am reaching out to you all asking if you know of any companies relatively 
close to me that sharpen these blades.

Thanks so much in advance for any help and insight you may give me.
