Biden?s gaffes & Obama?s judgment
2008-09-23 23:18:00 First, we have Joe Biden “ call an Obama campaign ad terrible” before saying he wouldn’t have so described the ad had he actually seen it. Then, he’s telling us about FDR’s nationally televised addresses both before presidents delivered such things and well before that Democrat had been elected to the White House. Now, we’ve got him contradicting his ...

On John Edwards’ Indiscretion & his Poor Judgment
2008-08-09 07:18:00 I really didn’t think I would have much to say on former Democratic Vice-Presidential nominee John Edwards’ recent admission that he lied about an extra-marital affair.  But, I decided to weigh in because it seems (to me at least) many who have already written about the story have only gotten half of it.  And upon learning (from my sister-in-law) of a comment he made to ABC News which I relate at the end of the post. I agree in part with Glenn Reynolds, “the real story is how the mainstream press, despite knowing or strongly suspecting that he was lying, covered for him.” There is, however, more to it than that. Given that the Edwards told his wife of his indiscretion, admitted he “made a very serious mistake” and asked her and God for forgiveness and apparently ended the affair, the story should be irrelevant to our political discourse, no more than fodder for the tabloids. It is, after all, primarily a matter between the former Senator and ...

Country Music I Like Despite My Better Judgment
2008-07-31 10:00:00 Music has always been a big part of my life, I grew up playing the Chopin while rocking out to my Def Leppard and INXS on weekends. I love jazz, alternative, opera, classic rock, classic classical, even movie soundtracks, Broadway and orchestral arrangements. The only musical genre I dislike is Country. Well I'm not big on New Age either but that's beside the point.I say this all with caution because I recognize that saying one hates Country music is something like saying one hates the flag, Abraham Lincoln or Lost and I know I'm setting myself up for angry mail. But the first part of a cure is admitting you need help, right? So though I can't handle the twang, the ethos or the clothing Country music spawns there are a few--very few--songs that could be considered "Country" music that I like. Maybe even love--though I'm not sure I'm prepared to admit to the "L" word yet.I suppose I should dedicate this list to my grandfather who is a die-hard Country fan. Not the Toby Ke...

Once Again, It?s About Associations and Judgment
2008-07-13 12:44:00 -By Frank Salvato There has been much ado about Barack Obama?s associations and the judgment used in maintaining and entering into those associations.

Air India flight attendants: a heavy judgment
2008-06-06 19:06:00 An Indian court has ruled that Air India has the right to ground its flight attendants for being overweight. The court was responding to a case brought by five air hostesses who had been grounded for being a few pounds over Air India's scale limit.A previous court edict urged female flight attendants to "battle their bulge" and "control their girth." A judge also offered the controversial opinion in one case that "It is universally accepted that overweight people have a tendency to suffer from diseases."Air India has been known to be picky when it comes to cosmetic requirements. Not so long ago the airline said it wouldn't consider applicants with acne and bad teeth.Air India spokesperson, Jitender Bhargava, claims that a "scientific" system is used to determine weight standards for flight attendants. The airline calculates weight according to an employee's height and age. For example an 18 year old hostess with a height of 152 cm is allowed to be 50kg. For hostesses in the 26 to...

Microsoft Collects on Default Judgment Against Spammer
2008-06-05 05:20:00 In October 2004, Microsoft Corp. filed suit against John Does 1-50, d/b/a Myauctionbiz.biz, for alleged “unauthorized use of Microsoft’s computers and computer systems to send millions of misleading and deceptive unsolicited commercial e-mail messages, or ‘spam,’ in violation of federal and state law and Microsoft policies.”Eventually, Microsoft identified a number of the unknown defendants, including Saul Waizer, a Florida resident, who Microsoft alleged was involved as an affiliate in the spam operation.Mr. Waizer did not answer Microsoft’s complaint and in November 2006, a default judgment was taken against him in the amount of $57,000. The news here is that Microsoft appears to have collected the full amount of this judgment. On May 28, 2008, it filed a Full Satisfaction of Judgment Against Saul Waizer stating: “Microsoft … hereby acknowledges receipt of full satisfaction of the judgment against Judgment Debtor/Defendant Saul Waize...
TTAB Grants Summary Judgment Against Seattle Spirits Distributor
2008-06-04 05:55:00 John Welch today reports on Seattle-based Fine Spirits Distribution, LLC’s loss on summary judgment in the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board opposition proceeding that E. & J. Gallo Winery brought objecting to Fine Spirits’ application to register FALCON for distilled spirits. Gallo successfully argued that mark was likely to cause confusion with Gallo’s FALCON RIDGE trademark for wine. Central to the decision was Fine Spirits’ failure to respond to Gallo’s requests for admission (or to withdraw or amend those admissions).As the TTABlog explains:“Th-ese admissions established that the involved goods are ‘related and competitive,’ that the goods are ‘impulse items, sold to customers at retail,’ that such consumers ‘will assume they are related,’ and that Gallo has priority of use. The Board therefore granted the motion for summary judgment.”In my experience, requests for admission usually are&nb...

Judgment will prevent unilateral action, says DPM Najib
2008-05-24 00:45:00 Judgment will prevent unilateral action, says DPM Najib  By Carolyn Hong, Malaysia Bureau Chief  KUALA LUMPUR - MALAYSIA views the International Court of Justice (ICJ) judgment on Pedra Branca as one that will prevent Singapore from acting unilaterally in the waters around the island. Deputy Prime Minister Najib Razak, describing it as a balanced decision, said the award of Middle Rocks to Malaysia was important as the coral reefs defined the maritime area of the two countries. The ICJ gave Singapore sovereignty over Pedra Branca - called Pulau Batu Puteh by Malaysia - and Malaysia, sovereignty over Middle Rocks. ‘Some people are viewing this as a win-win situation,’ the deputy premier said in Johor Baru. Malaysia’s Foreign Minister Rais Yatim also said the split decision meant that Malaysia still has rights over Middle Rocks, which is located about a mile from Pedra Branca. He told The Straits Times that Malaysian fishermen will still be able to use Middle R...

Focusing on Rush Limbaugh -- the medium's most influential talk show -- Rushed to Judgment systematically examines the politics of persuasion at play on our nation's radio airwaves and asks a series of important questions. Does listening to talk radio change the way people think about politics, or are listeners' attitudes a function of the self-selecting nature of the audience? Does talk radio enhance understanding of public issues or serve as a breeding ground for misunderstanding? Can talk radio serve as an agent of deliberative democracy, spurring Americans to open, public debate? Or will talk radio only aggravate the divisive partisanship many Americans decry in poll after poll? The t...

Kaliqo's Judgment Day Picks
2008-05-17 04:28:00 Usually I post the pay per view picks of a writer that goes by the name of "Professor Wrestling". This time, I decided to post my own picks:WWE Tag Team Championship Match: Miz and Morrison (c) vs. Kane and C.M. PunkI still see the Miz as the jerk from The Real World. It's hard for me to take him seriously as a wrestler. However, I do like John Morrison. With more seasoning, I think he will do well. It would be a real boost to these two to go over Kane & Punk, but I think the latter will get the win.WWE Women's Championship Match: Mickie James (c) vs. Beth Phoenix vs. MelinaNormally I don't pay any attention to the Divas, but I do like Beth Phoenix and Mickie James. I would prefer to see this match without Melina, but James and Phoenix should provide enough physicality to make it interesting. I think Mickie should retain the title with Phoenix chasing her for awhile.Challenge Match: JBL vs. John CenaI don't like either one of these guys so it doesn't matter to me who wins. Cena...

They don't make the defendant pay. Can we someway attach a lien onto their future tax returns like government agencies do?

Summit Capital Dismisses Declaratory Judgment Action Against Summit Partner
2008-05-05 04:08:00 As STL readers may recall, on Dec. 28 Seattle-based Summit Capital Group, LLC, and affiliated financial services companies filed suit in the Western District against the Boston-based Summit Partners, LP, venture capital firm, seeking a declaration of non-infringement and non-dilution of the defendant’s SUMMIT PARTNERS trademark. Plaintiffs claimed they had used SUMMIT CAPITAL PARTNERS since at least 1986. Defendants’ demand letter to plaintiffs giving rise to the lawsuit claimed it had used SUMMIT PARTNERS, SUMMIT CAPITAL PARTNERS, and SUMMIT PARTNERS VENTURE FUND names and marks since 1984.The parties apparently have settled their differences.

Losing sense of proper judgment
2008-04-24 21:21:00 This evening a car forced itself through a wall of climate protesters blocking off a street, leaving two persons injured. The idiot driver got away but he was filmed and the registration plate was identified. The demonstration arranged by Klimax was legal and approved of beforehand by the police.When I drive, which I do as little as possible, I feel encapsulated, and my sense of attachment to the world outside diminishes greatly. I guess this numbness grows thicker the more you drive. From the outside you can see this stupor in the faces of people driving. I guess this false shell of security makes some people lose sense of proper judgment. Some drive faster than they should and others penetrate crowds of people.I think the cocoonish numbness that many car drivers get makes them negligent of what they are doing to themselves, to others and the climate. The perspective of things can change quite dramatically if you step out of the car and instead take the bicycle. To me it is like r...
