Annonymous Coward: "Redskins" Again Challanged as Disparaging

(Annonymous Coward) — Mon, 14 Aug 2006 05:50:51 -0700

After last night's Cinncinati v. Washington game, a case could be made that it's disparaging because it associates native americans with a horrible football team.

Just sayin'

Karl, the VP does eat cat feces, but he always makes sure that it is heated to 170 degrees or higher before eating. Then he shoots you in the face with a shotgun. Nothing to worry about here.

This does NOT explain why Republicans are different! Anyone expressing such thoughts will be sent hunting with the Vice President who himself does NOT eat cat feces!

Angry, bitter, Hawk: 12th Man Dispute Sent to Federal Court

Apparently not with those refs.

Let's see. Seahawk touchdown called back for some invisible pass interference. There's 7 points.

Steelers given questionable touchdown. 7 more

Total: 14 points - Seahawks win!

Au contraire, ancient blotchy hen. Not only do I not dirty the keyboard, I lick it clean as a whistle.

Mmmmm... Cheeto bits...

Pep: A Judge Alito Trademark Case

ptd@hotmail.com (Pep) — Tue, 01 Nov 2005 05:54:00 -0700

Shocked! I'm shocked at how boring it is. The question is whether Alito is that boring, of whether it's just Trademark Law in general. Congress should investigate! I'm going to write my Congressman right n....ooooh, look! A bird... Gotta go

Zammer: TTAB Reverses Surname Refusal of "FIORE"

zam@hotmail.com (Zammer) — Sat, 29 Oct 2005 04:18:55 -0700

I agree with you tmboy, that the TTAB got Fiore wrong. And so does Mr. Welch. But I disagree that Italian is not a language spoken by a sizable portion of the 'Merican public. Ever been to Providence, or Little Italy in Bal'mer, or Newark, or North End of Boston, Brooklyn or Bensonhurst in NYC, or, hell, anywhere in NYC?

Italian in the United States

According to the Sons of Italy News Bureau from 1998 to 2002, the enrollment in Italian language courses grew by 30%, faster than the enrollment rates for Spanish, French, and German. Italian is the fourth most commonly taught foreign language in U.S. colleges and universities behind Spanish, French, and German. According to the U. S. 2000 Census, Italian (besides English and Spanish) is the fifth (seventh overall) most spoken language in the United States (tied with Vietnamese) with over 1 million speakers.2

Speaking of "considering changes," how about considering changes to our Request for Reconsideration practice? I know! Let's implement a $75,000 fee to file one! Seems reasonable.

The Board got this one wrong. The test for a 2(e)(4) refusal is whether the mark is PRIMARILY merely a surname, not whether it is ONLY a surname. Furthermore, if the Board wishes to impart a translation test into the 2(e)(4) analysis, they should choose a language spoken by a sizable portion of the American public. Italian is NOT a language spoken by a sizable portion of the American public.
