The mark "CANDY" was published as application for registration serial number 85/842,584 on January 15, 2014. Interested parties have until February 15, 2014 to file a Notice of Opposition to registration of the mark. king.com's pushing its weight around regarding this mark during the opposition period, when they are particularly vulnerable, is just stupid, IMHO. Any party receiving a "cease and desist" from king.com can file institute an opposition proceeding before the U.S. Trademark Office during this time and get the trademark examiners to consider all the many arguments as to why king.com should not obtain registration for this mark for these goods and services.
If you are ever called for jury duty and you need to shirk your civic duty, during voire dire, let them know this is your view of prosecutors and you are almost certain to be excused from jury duty.
I solve this problem by having asterisk prescreen all incoming calls. An IVR prompt requires you to press a combination of numbers before it actually rings any phones. A white and black list for caller ID data are used to bypass or simply play line disconnected tones and hang up.
It's the only reason I still have a POTS line. I never give out my cell.
This seems like such a sensible solution. Is there no hardware/firmware combination for the naive user so that they can program a single POTS line to require callers to dial in programmed access digits before they are cut through to the user's home telephone system?
That's the abstract. You need to look at the claims, because they define the metes and bounds of the invention. That said, this sure looks non-novel to me. Claim 1 reads on the thermostat my mom and dad had in the 60s.
Okay. So you sit down at the keyboard with UI for the encryption program open.

Good observation, recrudescence. Right or wrong, Richard Dawkins is MEAN, in the sense of being a mean-spiritied pr*ck..
Aristotle: rhetoric is ethos (character of the speaker), pathos (emotive or phatic communication), and logos.
Everybody here is solid on the logos of this debate. I would like to see it myself, to evaluate the ethos and pathos involved.

I would tell them to pound sand in the US. They have no U.S. trademark registration for the word mark "CANDY".
We work so that we may have leisure. We must have leisure to lead the good life.
Guys, if you're not dealing drugs, you have nothing to worry about.

Vodka may have been involved.
I stand corrected. The first major motion picture dubbed in a native North American language.
Tell us what you REALLY feel.

I call flame bait. "If you haven't done anything wrong, you have nothing to fear."
I rarely agree with Moglen. I think most of his views are extremist and lacking nuance. But I think he is right-on here.
You know, "to strawberry (v.t.)" may go viral as a result of your post here.

An elegant proof is the best revenge. Some of the nicest early work done by math prodigies was done while they were bored out of their minds in class.
