  • Lady Gaga Fails to Obtain Transfer of 'Fan Site' Domain Name International
    Lady Gaga fails to obtain transfer of ‘fan site’ domain name Cybersquatting International - Hogan Lovells November 09 2011 In Germanotta v oranges arecool XD (Claim No FA1108001403808), singer Stefani Germanotta, known as Lady Gaga, has lost her bid to gain control of the domain name ‘ladygaga.org’ on the basis that it was pointing towards a non-commercial fan website. The case was brought under the Uniform Domain Name Dispute Resolution Policy (UDRP) and filed with the National Arbitration Forum (NAF), based in Minneapolis, United States. The respondent was listed as oranges arecool XD. To be successful in a UDRP procedure, a complainant must evidence that: l the domain name is identical, or confusingly similar, to a trademark or service mark in which it has rights; l the respondent has no rights or legitimate interests in respect of the domain name; and l the domain name has been registered and is being used in bad faith. Gaga had no problem in proving the first requirement, as she had registered three federal LADY GAGA trademarks with the US Patent and Trademark Office in various classes. However, the three-member panel found that Gaga had not established that the respondent had no rights or legitimate interests under the second requirement. Given that the three requirements are cumulative, the complaint failed, and it was not necessary for the panel to consider the last requirement in relation to bad faith. The respondent asserted that she was operating a genuine non-commercial fan website at the domain name ‘ladygaga.org’, which contained no commercial links and included a prominent disclaimer, as follows: "Ladygaga.Org is just a unprofitable unofficial fansite, we do not get money from it.

  • Announce Your Wedding Online to Friends and Family with a Wedding Website
    Announce Your Wedding Online to Friends and Family with a Wedding Website Posted by TBN On 04/10/2012 Wedding planning seems to go on for months and months, but that final moment when it all comes together seems to be over within just the blink of an eye. One way to simplify your wedding planning is to create your own wedding website. A wedding website enables you to capture RSVP emails, make announcements about the wedding to friends and relatives, and more. What is a Wedding Website? A wedding website is your own Web URL or a certain amount of space hosted on another's website that announces your wedding and includes some information that possible guests would want to know. The website is dedicated solely to your wedding. It's a great way to let those nearby or abroad know about your wedding date and details, who will be in the wedding, and what to expect. The wedding website may contain photos of the bride and groom with special captions to explain each photo, the bride's and groom's names, the wedding date, an optional wedding song lyric, and a listing of the bride and groom parties. You can also post personal information about how you met, how the groom proposed, and who you are now. The website may also have a guestbook for visitors to leave comments for you. You can even list links to your bridal registries to make gift giving easy. Your Own Web Space versus Using Space on Another Site If you don't mind paying monthly fees for your own domain name and web hosting, you can get your own wedding website and hire a designer or design it on your own if you have the know-how.

  • How Wedding Ceremonies and Traditions Have Changed Over Time
    In the early 1800s, brides in England wore red dresses. That changed in 1840 when Queen Victoria married Prince Albert and wore a white dress. ( Source ) In the 19th century, marriage became more about love and less about status, thanks to the Industrial Revolution and growth of the middle class. ( Source ) In the 19th century, weddings were typically small, intimate ceremonies at the home of the parents of the bride or groom. ( Source) Weddings did not become elaborate events until the 1820s and 30s. ( Source ) Weddings in the 19th century often took place on weekdays between 10 a.m. and noon, followed with a breakfast reception. ( Source ) 1900s Many colonial-era marriage celebrations took place in the winter months when there was less to do on the farm or plantation agriculturally.
