    O-293-19 TRADE MARKS ACT 1994 IN THE MATTER OF APPLICATION No. 3269456 BY LAURICE EL BADRY RAHME LIMITED TO REGISTER THE TRADE MARK BROOKLYN IN CLASS 3 AND IN THE MATTER OF OPPOSITION THERETO UNDER No. 411953 BY GALLIVANT PERFUMES LIMITED BACKGROUND 1) On 9 November 2017, Laurice El Badry Rahme Ltd (hereinafter the applicant) applied to register the trade mark BROOKLYN in respect of the following goods and services: Class 3: Fragrances for personal use namely, perfumes in class 3. 2) The application was examined and accepted, and subsequently published for opposition purposes on 15 December 2017 in Trade Marks Journal No.2017/050. 3) On 15 March 2018 Gallivant Perfumes Limited (hereinafter the opponent) filed a notice of opposition, subsequently amended. The grounds of opposition are, in summary: a) The opponent contends that it has used the sign “BROOKLYN BY GALLIVANT” throughout the UK on perfume since 8 March 2017. It contends that it had sold its perfume under its sign for six months and attracted a significant amount of press coverage in the UK. As such it contends that the application offends against Section 5(4)(a) of the Trade Marks Act 1994. b) The opponent contends that there are numerous companies that use BROOKLYN in relation to perfumes and it is therefore dilute and incapable of distinguishing goods or services of one undertaking from those of another undertaking. It therefore offends against section 3(1)(a) of the Trade Marks Act 1994. c) The opponent contends that BROOKLYN is a geographic term which is known internationally and which is associated with a city that leads the world in terms of fashion, design and luxury goods.

As George took to the stage at the event on Sunday he addressed his future wife and said: “I would just like to say to my bride-to-be Amal that I love you very much and I can’t wait to be your husband.” According to E!, the human rights lawyer was very touched by the public display of affection from her handsome fiancÈ. An eyewitness said: “She seemed so touched and overwhelmed and at that moment they looked right at each other and it was as if there was no one else in the room.” It was also at the Italian gala, which was held in support of the Andres Bocelli Foundation and The Muhammad Ali Parkinson Center, that the 53-year-old star let slip that he would be getting married in Venice in a “couple of weeks”, after it was reported that the couple would have their romantic ceremony in Lake Como. He told the crowd: “I met my bride-to-be in Italy, and I will be married in Italy soon, in a couple of weeks. In Venice, of all places.” Amal was recently spotted at the Alexander McQueen headquarters, prompting speculation that she would be using the same wedding dress designer as the Duchess of Cambridge - who wore a dress designed by Sarah Burton, the creative director of the brand for her wedding to Prince William in April 2011.

Best of luck to our newest lovebirds! Celebrity couples have to worry about avoiding magazine covers, but how can you keep your new relationship and love from attracting rumors? Cupid’s Advice: No one wants to be on the receiving end of bad gossip, but by word of mouth, rumors travel at lightening speed. And where rumors start, doubt and insecurities seem to follow. You don’t need anyone sticking their nose in your business, so consider this dating advice to keep your relationship and love private! 1. Don’t publicize your concerns in your relationship:In your relationship, there are only two people: you and your partner. That being said, everyone else’s opinions on what may or may not be going on are irrelevant. There is no need for you to be sharing the intimate details of your relationship to anyone else. If something is going on, talk to your partner, not the world.

  • The 30 Most Influential Teens of 2017
    The 30 Most Influential Teens of 2017 By TIME STAFF Updated: November 3, 2017 11:53 AM ET | Originally published: November 2, 2017 To determine TIME’s annual list, we consider accolades across numerous fields, global impact through social media and overall ability to drive news. In the past, we’ve recognized everyone from singer Lorde to Olympic champion Simone Biles to political activist Joshua Wong. Here’s who made this year’s cut (ordered from youngest to oldest): Millie Bobby Brown, 13 Not many actors can say they got an Emmy nomination, and worldwide fame, for convincing the world that they have superpowers. Brown can, thanks to her role on Netflix’s sci-fi ’80s-nostalgia-fest Stranger Things. She plays Eleven, a mysterious girl—part science experiment, part prodigy, part awkward teen—who uses telekinesis to ward off evil. But there’s remarkable nuance in Brown’s performance, the kind that is able to convey melancholy beneath magic. It has made Eleven the standout character on a show brimming with them, one who inspires Internet memes, Halloween costumes and newfound interest in Eggo waffles (Eleven’s favorite food). Brown’s own profile has risen as well. Since the show’s July 2016 debut, the British actor has rapped at the Golden Globes, signed with IMG Models and appeared on the covers of Entertainment Weekly, InStyle and more. One secret to Brown’s success? Not overthinking her craft. “Eleven is part of me and always will be. I don’t try with her,” she told TIME during a Stranger Things set visit earlier this year.
