As grounds for its opposition, Opposer, by its attorneys Seiter Legal Studio, alleges as follows: 1. Opposer is the owner of the trademark KARIZIA & Design, under U.S. Trademark Application Serial No. 85919445, filed on April 30, 2013, in International Class 14 for “Precious metals and their alloys and goods in precious metals or coated therewith, namely, wire of precious metal, gold thread, unwrought and beaten gold, platinum, spun silver, silver wire, unwrought and beaten silver, all for use in the making of jewelry; 1 statuettes of precious metal; copper tokens; badges of precious metal; ingots of precious metals; coins; works of art of precious metal; boxes of precious metal; busts of precious metal; jewelry cases; caskets; statues of precious metal; jewellery, namely, amulets, rings, bracelets, chains, charms, necklaces, cloisonné, medals, medallions, earrings, key rings, trinkets, fobs, jewelry of yellow amber, jewelry of ivory, jewelry of paste, ornaments, ornaments of jet, shoe ornaments of precious metal, hat ornaments of precious metal, tie clips, tie pins, pins, ornamental pins, cuff links, brooches, pearls, semi-precious stones, pearls made of ambroid, jewelry beads, watch bands, watch chains and watch cases; precious stones, namely, diamonds, agates, unwrought or semi-wrought jet, iridium, olivine, osmium, palladium, rhodium, ruthenium, spinel; horological and chronometric instruments, namely, clocks, atomic clocks, master clocks, wristwatches, watches, chronographs, chronometers, stopwatches, chronoscopes, alarm clocks, watch glasses, electric clocks and watches, clock cases, presentation cases for watches, sundials, and pendulums, clock hands, dials, movements, springs, cases, clockworks, anchors and barrels for clock and watch making,” which Opposer has used since at least as early as April 2007, and has used in U.S. commerce since at least as early as April 2007. 2. Opposer’s mark KARIZIA & Design has been promoted extensively, and the mark is well known to the consuming public. Opposer has invested substantial time, effort and money in promoting the mark. As a result, the mark has become distinctive of Opposer’s goods, and has come to represent substantial goodwill for Opposer, widely recognized by the consuming public of the United States as a designation of source of the goods of Opposer. 2 3. On December 7, 2012, Applicant Shah Diamonds, Inc. filed Application Serial No. 85797373 for the mark CARIZIA on an intent-to-use basis in International Class 14 for “Jewelry” and in International Class 35 for “Distributorship services in the field of jewelry.” 4. Upon information and belief, Applicant made no use of the mark CARIZIA in Application Serial No. 85797373 on or before January 2007, the date of first use and the date of first use in United States commerce of Opposer’s mark KARIZIA & Design in Trademark Application Serial No. 85919445. 5. Upon information and belief, Applicant made no use of the mark in Application Serial No. 85797373 on or before October 30, 2012, the priority date of Opposer’s Trademark Application Serial No. 85919445. 6. Upon information and belief, Applicant made no use of the mark in Application Serial No. 85797373 prior to its filing date of December 7, 2012. 7. Upon information and belief, Applicant made no use of the mark in Application Serial No. 85797373 on or before April 30, 2013, the filing date of Opposer’s Trademark Application Serial No. 85919445. 8. The mark that Applicant seeks to register is identical in sound, and is similar in appearance, meaning and commercial impression to Opposer’s mark, and could be used in connection with goods and services identical or closely related to Opposer’s goods. Based on the confusing similarity of the two marks and identity or relatedness of the parties’ respective goods and services, the public is likely to associate the goods and services of Applicant under the mark CARIZIA with Opposer and/or its licensees or with Opposer’s and/or its licensees’ goods under its mark KARIZIA & Design, or to believe 3 that Applicant’s goods and services are sponsored, endorsed or licensed by Opposer or its licensees, or that there exists some relationship between Applicant and Opposer and/or its licensees. 9. For the above reasons, any use of the mark CARIZIA by Applicant is likely to cause confusion, cause mistake or deceive the public, and cause the public to believe that the goods and services offered under the mark by Applicant emanate from or are otherwise sponsored or endorsed by Opposer, in violation of Section 2(d) of the Lanham Act, 15 U.S.C. § 1052(d). REQUEST FOR RELIEF 10. Opposer is the owner of U.S. Trademark Application Serial No. 85919445, filed on April 30, 2013, in International Class 14 for the aforementioned goods, which Opposer has used in U.S. commerce since at least as early as April 2007, and is using such mark in U.S. commerce. 11. Opposer will be irreparably harmed and financially damaged by Applicant’s Application Serial No. 85797373, because Applicant’s mark has been cited against Opposer’s pending Application Serial No. 85919445, as

  • Drawing a Shoe
    Drawing a Shoe Drawing due to your art teacher on or before Friday, April 24th. What Will You Need? • What you will need: 1 shoe, a white piece of paper, a pencil, and a computer (or a phone) to view the video and examples. • Find a shoe in your house! This could be your shoe or a family member’s shoe. (The video provided will mention that you need a shoe with laces, but I don’t mind if you choose a shoe without laces, as long as it has a fair amount of other details.) • When choosing your shoe, you want to make sure the shoe has details to draw, so I’ve added some examples here. • Good examples: Sneakers, hiking boots, winter boots, dress shoes. • Bad examples: Flip flops or very basic ballet flats (not enough detail). Your drawing will be a contour line drawing. We start most drawings and paintings with simple contour lines that define the object that we are drawing, and the details contained within that object. The video on the next page is an example of an artist working in contour line- he defines the edge of his shoe and continues to the details as he works through his drawing. Drawing a Shoe: A Video! • Click here to watch drawing video • This is a great tutorial on how to draw a shoe from life. It includes great tips that will help you to set up your shoe and get started. Inspecting Your Shoe! • Look at the shoe from all angles, inspect the shoe with your eyes.

  • SA Dress Code No Matter What It Is.” and Omaha Skutt – and Com- Principal David Pared Them to St
    Page 2 LETTER FROM THE EDITOR Dear Readers, It has come to the attention of the publications staff that a large portion of the student body is displeased with the St. Albert dress code. Many stated in a Google poll conducted by The Accipiter that they find the uniforms outdated and the rules unfair or unfairly enforced. Be- cause of this ongoing issue, the St. Albert journalism department decided to thoroughly analyze the school’s dress code. Inside this edition there will be multiple articles going into depth over certain aspects of the uniform. Each article will provide comments from both the administration and the student body to get different points of view. The publications staff has also researched the dress codes of several other schools, but specifically Dowling of West Des Moines, Kuem- per of Carroll, and Skutt from Omaha. The information found on these schools was put into a spreadsheet for the SA student body to compare. While a majority of this edition is covering the dress code, I thought it was also impor- tant to recognize our cross-country team and Emma Gardner for making it to state. In this edi- tion there will also be a couple winter sport previews to get you excited for the upcoming sea- son. Both basketball teams seem to be looking good and the wrestling team seems to have a huge increase in numbers, which excites me for an all-around great winter sports season. I believe it’s important for you, the readers, to understand that the publication staff is student-run, and because of that the students like to write about what interests them the most.

  • General Ancient Greek Clothing Was Created by Draping One Or More Large Rectangles of Cloth Around the Body
    Ancient Greek and Roman Clothing Information Sheet Greek Clothing: General Ancient Greek clothing was created by draping one or more large rectangles of cloth around the body. The cloth was woven by the women of the household, and the materials most often used were wool and linen. There were no set sizes to a piece of apparel. How the rectangles were draped, belted, and pinned determined how they fit the contours of the body and how they were named. When seen on statues or in painted pottery, the clothing often appears to be white or a single color. In actuality, the textiles used for clothing were often dyed in bright colors such as red, yel- low, green or violet. Decorative motifs on the dyed cloths were often either geometric patterns or patterns from nature, like leaves. Wide-brimmed hats were worn by men in bad weather or while traveling in the hot sun. When not letting their long hair fall in trailing curls on their backs or shoulders,Greek women put their hair up in scarves or ribbons. Depictions of men in paintings and statues also show them with filets (cloth headbands) around their heads. Though Greeks often went barefoot around the house, a variety of shoe styles were available, from sandals to boots. The sandals worn by the statue of Artemis shown in full view on the next page. Oedipus is dressed for travel in his wide-brimmed hat, cloak, and shoes. Note that the reclining man shown on this cup has put his shoes underneath A woman with her hair this couch and that the musician is wrapped in a scarf.
