(“Opposer”), a corporation of the State of Delaware, having a principal place of business at 500 South Buena Vista Street, Burbank, California, 91521, believes that it is being damaged, and will be damaged, by the registration of Li Guoyang’s (“Applicant”) NIGHTMARE BEFORE CHRISTMAS mark shown in Application Serial No. 90167345, and hereby opposes the same. As grounds for opposition, Opposer alleges that, upon actual knowledge with respect to Opposer’s own acts, and upon information and belief as to other matters: Opposer and its Business 1. Opposer, Disney Enterprises, Inc., is a corporation of the State of Delaware, having a principal place of business at 500 South Buena Vista Street, Burbank, California, 91521. 2. Opposer, through its related companies and licensees, is one of the world’s leading producers and providers of entertainment, films, music, and consumer products. Opposer engages in a vast licensing program under which it uses or licenses the use of its properties and characters in connection with a wide variety of products Application Serial No. 90167345 and services including, but not limited to, entertainment services, motion picture films, posters, household textiles, paper products, toys, apparel, jewelry, food items, music, and mobile applications, among many other things. Opposer’s THE NIGHTMARE BEFORE CHRISTMAS Film and Rights in Its NIGHTMARE BEFORE CHRISTMAS Mark 3. Since as early as 1993, Opposer has used the trademark THE NIGHTMARE BEFORE CHRISTMAS, TIM BURTON’S THE NIGHTMARE BEFORE CHRISTMAS and variations thereof (collectively, the “NIGHTMARE BEFORE CHRISTMAS Mark”) in commerce in connection with a wide variety of products and services. 4. Opposer’s NIGHTMARE BEFORE CHRISTMAS Mark first appeared in connection with Opposer’s 1993 stop-motion animation feature film Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas, originally released under Opposer’s feature film label Touchstone Pictures, as shown below. The film tells the story of Jack Skellington, the Pumpkin King of Halloween Town, who accidentally finds Christmas Town and becomes obsessed with celebrating Christmas. The film has been enormously successful, earning over 91 million dollars worldwide since its initial 1993 release, winning major awards, including the Saturn Award for Best Fantasy Film, and garnering nominations for Academy Award for Best Visual Effects and Golden Globe Award for Best Original Score, among others. The film also received significant unsolicited media attention in, among other sources, Los Angeles Times, Variety, Rolling Stone, and The New York Times. 2 Application Serial No. 90167345 5.

Since well before the September 9, 2020 filing date of the opposed application, Applicant’s claimed August 12, 2020 date of first use, and any dates of first use that may be proven by Applicant, Opposer and/or its licenses have offered and promoted a wide variety of consumer products under the NIGHTMARE BEFORE CHRISTMAS Mark including, but not limited to, DVDs, Blu-Rays, apparel, pins, backpacks, chopping boards, lunch plates, and slow cookers, as shown in the representative examples below. 3 Application Serial No. 90167345 4 Application Serial No. 90167345 5 Application Serial No. 90167345 7. Since well before the September 9, 2020 filing date of the opposed application, Applicant’s claimed August 12, 2020 date of first use, and any dates of first use that may be proven by Applicant, Opposer has used its NIGHTMARE BEFORE CHRISTMAS Mark in connection with a wide variety of household textile products including shower curtains, pillows, comforters, blankets, and bedding, as shown in the representative examples below. 6 Application Serial No. 90167345 7 Application Serial No. 90167345 (The goods and services identified in Paragraphs 5-7 are collectively referred to as “Opposer’s Goods and Services.”) 8. Opposer and/or its licensees and related companies have spent considerable effort and resources advertising and promoting Opposer’s NIGHTMARE BEFORE CHRISTMAS Mark in connection with Opposer’s Goods and Services. As a result of these efforts, Opposer has established a strong association and identification in the minds of the public between Opposer, Opposer’s Goods and Services, and Opposer’s NIGHTMARE BEFORE CHRISTMAS Mark. 9. Through its long use of Opposer’s NIGHTMARE BEFORE CHRISTMAS Mark for more than a decade, enormous commercial success of Opposer’s NIGHTMARE BEFORE CHRISTMAS film and entertainment franchise, substantial advertising, and extensive media attention and publicity, Opposer has developed substantial and valuable goodwill in Opposer’s NIGHTMARE BEFORE CHRISTMAS Mark, and it has long been well-known and famous.

    Paper 2: the Woollen Cloth Industry in the Lim Valley © Richard Bull & Lyme Regis Museum Revised with Extra Images July 2015

    Industrial Lyme - Paper 2: The Woollen Cloth Industry in the Lim Valley © Richard Bull & Lyme Regis Museum Revised with extra images July 2015 Like all research, this is on-going. If you know more, or are descended from any of the families involved, please get in touch with the author via Lyme Regis Museum. Summary Woollen cloth has been made in the Lim Valley from at least medieval times, but this paper is more about the factories in Lyme Regis and Uplyme that made high-quality West of England coat cloths. The factories in Lyme were bankrupt in 1847, leaving the Uplyme factory to soldier on against Yorkshire competition until it was destroyed by fire in 1866, whilst being modernised. In Lyme the factories were started up again in the 1850s to make silk thread and hemp twine, but only for a short period; these are the subjects of other papers in this series. This paper contains: the background to the trade, the history of the factories and a walking trail to see the mills. Cloth making – the essential process in a nutshell Sheep fleeces are packed on the farm into big canvas bags called woolsacks. At the factory the fleeces are scoured (washed) to remove lanolin (wool- grease), dirt and adhering vegetable material. Then the fleeces are scribbled (torn up into pieces), combed and carded to produce rovings, long strips of wool ready for spinning. Washed and combed fleece being fed into a carding machine at Coldharbour Mill, Uffculme, Devon Industrial Lyme Paper 2 – The Woollen Cloth Industry © R Bull & Lyme Regis Museum 1 Spinning means to draw out and twist - and by this process the scales of the individual wool fibres lock together to produce a thread known as a single.

Chelsea Editions drapery fabric. alm Beach! Rattan! Pink and green! Bring on the hibiscus! On second thought, maybe not. P"Haven't we seen enough houses in Palm Beach that are oom-pah-pah?" Marjorie Shushan asks. Never one for an insistent beat, this interior designer believes in the power of subtlety, in a buttery-soft atmosphere that leaves her clients feeling all wrapped up in a cash­ mere throw, preferably a beige one. "Peace, quiet and some luxury" is what she says most of us want. It does sound rather nice, doesn't it? "I had no idea how luxurious it would be," says Eleanor Woolems, after months of touching the sensual fabrics that are the designer's signature, and waking up in a big downy bed encircled by matelasse draperies, and nestling into furniture from Shushan's secret source in Los An­ geles. She and her husband, James, enjoy these luxuries year-round; they are full­ time residents-natives, in fact-of this winter resort. He is a contractor who builds and renovates residences; she has been selling real estate here for 15 years.

In the New World, cloth makers and merchants found continu­ ously buoyant demand that more than compensated for the shrinking of traditional markets as mercantilist barriers arose and newly com­ petitive manufacturing centres proliferated across Europe. Shortly before the outbreak of the War of Independence, it has been estimated that about ‘half of all English exports of silk goods, printed cotton and linen goods, and flannels’, and between ‘two-thirds and three-quarters of all exported English .

    Project Summary: William Ramsay was a merchant and civic official who lobbied with the Virginia General Assembly to establish the town of Alexandria, VA. The Ramsay store sold a huge variety of goods: for home (cooking and cleaning, sewing furnishings and clothes), for building and agriculture (tools and supplies), for personal use (like combs or jewelry), for reading and writing (books, paper and supplies), as well as grocery items (dry goods, spices, and beverages). The products listed in the database reflect a globalized consumer market with items from across Europe, India, China, the West Indies, and the Caribbean. The ledger, housed at the Smithsonian archive, begins when the store was founded in 1753 and continues through 1756. Ramsay used double entry accounting, where daily sales were recorded in a daybook then debts were copied into the ledger. The ledger, therefore, records the dated itemized purchases where merchants extended credit (debits) on the left with customer payments (credits) listed on the facing page. Since the daybook does not survive, we do not have complete information on cash sales and sadly cannot fully understand some financial issues, even foot traffic in the store. The ledger does, however, reflect a wide range of purchases by a culturally diverse range of customers. Spreadsheet: This project is being transcribed into a spreadsheet in order to allow more functional ability to search and categorize the information for interpretation. To facilitate such analysis, data needs to be entered in a slightly more systematized way than a straight transcription. Each line on the spreadsheet reflects a line of sales or payments.

Abstract Research into the material culture of the household and the domestic interior has increased rapidly during recent years. It has primarily focused on the appearance and use of domestic space leaving household management and maintenance a neglected area of study. Furthermore the relationship between the ownership of goods, the domestic interior and the use of the home has not been studied in conjunction with the management and maintenance of the household. Additionally, research into the material culture of the household has predominantly focused on quantitative changes experienced during the late seventeenth century and early eighteenth. It has long been established that the ownership of household goods increased in this period, but similar research has not taken place to explore the nature of these goods, nor to extend this work to the subsequent period.
