« Previous EntriesHow Do I Trademark A Domain Name?
Thursday, February 12th, 2009The process for filing for a trademark for a domain name is similar to any other name in terms of comprehensive research and analysis being a necessity.
Comprehensive research consists of looking at marks that are similar in Sound, Appearance or Meaning in the pending & registered Federal AND State trademark files as well as the US National Common-Law files.
There is one big caveat when it comes to trademarking domain names and it has to do with usage of the domain name.
“A mark composed of a domain name is registrable as a trademark or service mark only if it functions as a source identifier,” so says the USPTO. Okay, but what does that mean?
Activating Affluence
Thursday, February 12th, 2009I’m a firm believer that we are here to create our own destinies. Our lives are exactly as we have made them - for good or bad.
I’m fairly certain that most people involved are either living the good life or are on the path to the good life because expanding our universes is truly one of the best ways to get exactly what we want out of life. Lately I’ve been thinking a lot about affluence. From the principles of affluence, to the thoughts, to action, to the realization. Installing an affluent mindset and thought processes will help you to realize your dreams. I’m talking here about the strategies of the world’s wealthiest.
Want to know why Bill Gates is wealthier than you? I’ll tell you…
What Does Separation Of Church And State Really Mean?
Thursday, February 12th, 2009The much-bandied about phrase “separation of church and state” means different things to different people. To those from the secular humanist persuasion, it means that the state can make no public acknowledgement of religion, have no religious displays, recognize no tax exemptions for churches, and goes so far to regulate even religious expressions of private individuals in the public arena out of line. One also hears that any attempt by others to “moralize” or use any religious values to argue for a policy should be silenced. On the other hand, there are those who believe the matter is simply that the government should not establish an official state church, or that a church should not be anointing officials in the government. Other than that, people should believe and practice how they see fit. Both sides couch their arguments on constitutional theories, some involving Thomas Jefferson’s wall of separation letter.
Determining The Value Of A Vehicle Accident Claim
Wednesday, February 11th, 2009In order to verify the worth of your accident claim, you should know first how the insurance companies appraise any claim. Most insurance providers assess an injury claim based on the type of accident, amount of damages and extent of mistake or liability. Hence, you may seek assistance from an accident lawyer for you to be properly guided and represented in pursuing a vehicle accident claim.
Usually, the insurance companies pay for the following damages:
Boating Accidents Put A Damper On Water Fun
Tuesday, February 10th, 2009Boating is a very popular summertime activity for many families, and boating is a year-round pastime for many men and women. But boating can become very dangerous when boats are not operated properly or when boaters take to the water under inclement weather conditions. Every year, the United States Coast Guard compiles statistics on reported recreational boating accidents. The statistics are derived from accident reports that are filed by the owners and operators of vessels involved in accidents.
Boating Regulations
Current regulations require that the operator of any vessel, that is used for recreational purposes and is numbered, to file a Boating Accident Report (BAR) when any of the following occurs:
Update On Berkeley Nanotech Regulations

Why Do Trial Attorneys Turn Down A Case?
Monday, February 9th, 2009Not all cases that are brought to trial attorneys have its merits. One factor that makes them problematic is determining how to say no to these types of cases.
Some legal aid seekers do not understand that legal practitioners have to follow a certain standard in accepting a client’s case. This article then aims to inform them why some attorneys turn down their cases.
The attorney does not specialize in a particular case brought to him
Although all legal practitioners have undergone extensive studies and trainings in all aspects of law, still, no attorney specializes in many fields. Law covers various areas that require a lot of time and efforts to master and a great majority of attorneys will not try to study all of them. It may take them a lifetime to do such undertaking, leaving them with no time to practice their craft.
The Implication Of Calea Compliance On Network Monitoring Services
Monday, February 9th, 2009CALEA compliance is very important when it comes to a network monitoring service. And, individual entities are required to review the regulations and then determine how the CALEA regulations apply to their business and network monitoring services.
For example, a carrier of telecommunications may interpret the CALEA regulations in different ways and as a result comply in different ways. Some carriers will create a compliance solution for their particular network while others will buy a compliance plan on the street. This includes the necessary equipment to provide monitoring services. Third trusted parties are also a way to get a compliance solution.
Government Counsel - Build Nest Eggs For Retirement
Monday, February 9th, 2009It is an unfortunate fact, but not a generalization, that Americans have very short attention spans. This is manifested in certain activities that we join or set up but never get around to see concluded. Nowadays the government is giving attention to retirement benefits. There is a lesson learned in this context - a lesson as big as the baby boomer generation.
This is why when it comes to finances, you should not put off planning for your future any longer than necessary. You should be doing it right now!
The government today is quite disturbed with the fact that you are coming. Among other things, there is also the fact that our population has a bulge known as the generation of baby boomers. It is considered a bulge because the baby boomer generation’s number is more than the younger generation.
E-security Legal Issues
Sunday, February 8th, 2009One way for a reseller to gain an edge on competitors is to market the advantages associated with its products in a unique way. In the security channel, a white paper marketing the legal and commercial advantages of a security product presented in a compelling way may prove to be a successful method of enticing a customer into purchasing your security solution.
Security is critical, there is no doubt about it. The smallest breach or compromise can result in situations that can cripple business. Recently, the two big e-security stories have been the disruption to the Russian Trading System (RTS) stock exchange caused by a virus in early February and the extradition proceedings currently underway in the UK against a hacker who allegedly hacked into approximately 100 Pentagon, NASA and other American military networks.
