Trademark Protection In The Global Marketplace
2008-09-18 08:14:00 This article was written by my friend, Brian Geoghegan, who describes himself as having "practiced trademark and copyright law since graduating in 1985 from the University of California at Berkeley School of Law (Boalt Hall). In 2003, he finally left behind the megafirm lifestyle and founded GeoMark, a boutique trademark and copyright law firm." Trademarks are among the most important assets of any company. Indeed, if it weren't for trademarks, customers would be unlikely to even find a company's products. Naturally, then, most companies want to protect these essential and valuable assets to the greatest extent possible and therefore make sure that they are registered with the United States Patent & Trademark Office (the "USPTO"). But many companies stop there, thinking the job complete. It doesn’t occur to them that trademark rights are territorial and that owning a United States trademark registration creates no rights whatsoever outside the borders of the U.S. I...

McBush Blows Hot Air On Global Warming
2008-08-25 23:07:00 This Reuters story tells us?ACCRA (Reuters) - Morality should be a spur for stronger action to fight climate change, which threatens food and water supplies for the poorest in Africa, a group of Christian activists said on Saturday during U.N. climate talks."We hear about climate change as a political issue, an environmental issue and an economic issue. We want to press the point that this is a moral issue," said Marcia Owens, a minister in the Florida branch of the African Methodist Episcopal Church.She and a group of Christian activists told Reuters they were lobbying delegates at the August 21-27 U.N. talks in Ghana to work out a strong new treaty, due for completion by the end of 2009, to slow global warming.This is, to me, the proper context for framing this issue, for it truly is a matter of faith as far as your humble narrator is concerned (and the Catholic Church has spoken out also here, though not lately as nearly as I can determine from my ?Googling?).And with this in min...

Prospective clients can sense whether a lawyer is genuinely interested in them and their culture—or is just trying to get the economic benefit of their new business. So true.
