A photograph of a location cannot be trademarked, if that were the case, then they would have to trademark every and any photograph of a place.
Suppose that the claim that a photograph of a particular place can be trademarked...
Taking the following into account, angle, zoom level, color variance, etc...Every photographic variation should also be trademarked.
But this would not fall under the definition of a trademark, and not even a trade dress...
A trademark, trade mark, or trade-mark[1] is a distinctive sign or indicator used by an individual, business organization, or other legal entity to identify that the products or services to consumers with which the trademark appears originate from a unique source, and to distinguish its products or services from those of other entities.

Remember kiddos, it's not just about the privacy issues that we have here in America. Look at what the other countries are having to deal with now, their privacy is being completely violated in one way or another. The implementation of cameras, people tracking, and other types of identification systems are being misused; in no time they'll be dealing with zealous institutions who are willing to undermine the average citizen to "make" the world a better place.

"In fact, Crispin Porter has another completed spot featuring the lovable, affluent couple in the can, ready to air (even though it won't quite yet). And while the agency has prioritized development to the anti-Mac ads, there are still full plans to go ahead and produce more Seinfeld/Gates spots unless Microsoft were to pull the plug first (which, once again, they have not at this time)."

It will be fun to see these 'good' and 'bad' deeds pop up out of no where when one is signed onto xbox live. Imagine :
[Possible Dialog of a 'friend' gazing at his screen playing a video game] [Suddenly he receives pop ups from his xbox live reminder page] RandyX: Dude I so totally boned that whore, I got full health, take that beeatch where's my money.!!
[Samuel who's in RandyX's 'friend list receives this message] Samuel's Gamer Tag: (RandyX has just raped a whore!) Samuel: WTF!? Samuel's Gamer Tag: (RandyX has just B*tch slapped the whore, and taken all of her money) Samuel: WTFBBQ!!! Samuel's Gamer Tag: (RandyX has just gotten AIDS)
[Samuel rushes in for the phone and calls Randy] Samuel: Randy, I thought you hated the GTA series dude! Randy: Dude, my girlfriend dumped me; So, yeah!!.....time to go blow Sh*t Up!!! [End of Call]
[Samuel Returns to his previous Game] Samuel's Gameer Tag: Randy has popped in Xbox Live Arcade Samuel: Not Again!!!!!!!!!!!!!F*ck!!....
Roflcopter....The thought that scares me is that these so called "tech-savie" kids often jam their PCs with so much junk like Windows, Microsoft Office Products, and useless programs like Kodak Gallery and their ISP's browser. At the end of the day the experienced IT guy has to be called because they're parents are complaining that their computers are running slaggishly slow. The poor IT guy then arrives and partially "fixes" the problem. He installs Open Office, Mozilla Firefox, Thunder Bird, 7-zip, AVG Antispyware, VLC Player, and of course the latest version of Linux(one of the distros that will fit the family's needs). Then these "tech-savy" kids start complaining that their IT messed up their computer. When are these kids going to learn that just because they downloaded a file from kazaa or bearshare it doesn't mean that their computers are safe from the damn spyware.
The solution is simple, it's a user error, simply replace the user. When are they ever going to learn.
Oh, and about kids not choosing a career in the tech business; the reason why they don't want to be computer scientists is because it requires hard work and brains. Plus, why would they want to go into a career that is now being shifted to the middle east?
Watch long hours of spongebob squarepants,oprah, and after he is done with that he should be forced to debug a windows 2000 debug version computer with no help at all.

When will the RIAA raid Da Vinci's Tomb for further reasearch?
When I first saw the headline I thought they were going to verify the age when one signed in online

That would be another awesome addition to my list of Capcoms HD Games for my PS3!!!
WOW!!!
You see, Miyamoto's Mario 64 level 'Desert's Hill' pictures a pyramid that contains a spiral ramp which leads to the top of the pyramid revealing a small opening where the workers would place the top rocks of the pyramid precisely on top. Which proves my theory on the conspiracy of Video Game Giants trying to force their beliefs unto us!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!_ Super_Mario_64_shifting_sand_land.jpg _ Super_Mario_64_shifting_sand_land.jpg
