    In The Matter Of A Trade Mark Application Nos. 6229/95, 6230/95 & 6231/95 By Future Enterprises Pte Ltd And Objection Thereto By Mcdonald's Corporation Before Principal Assistant Registrar P Arul Selvamalar 15, 16, 17 and 23 January 2003 Trade Mark Application - Opposition - whether marks are confusingly similar - whether Opponents had a reputation in a family of marks - whether Applicants' use of prefix bona fide - rightful proprietorship - Trade Marks Act (Cap. 332, 1992 Ed.) sections 15, 23 and 12 Facts In 1995, Future Enterprises Pte Ltd (the Applicants), applied for registration of 3 marks which contained the words MacNoodles, MacTea and MacChocolate below an eagle device and other devices for the following goods: instant noodles, instant tea mix and instant chocolate mix respectively, in class 30. The registration of these marks were opposed by the McDonald's Corporation on the grounds that the Applicants' use of "Mac" as a prefix in their marks was confusingly similar to their reputation in a family of marks which had the prefix Mc under sections 15 and 23. The Opponents also argued that the Applicants' use of the prefix Mac was not bona fide and that therefore the Applicants were not the rightful proprietors of the mark under section 12. The Applicants, who were initially in the computer business, went into the instant beverage and food business in 1994. Their evidence was that in order to portray a sophisticated, western image, they chose the device of an American eagle and that as Apple Computer Inc's Macintosh computer was known as Mac, they chose Mac as a prefix for the words Noodles, Tea and Chocolate in their marks.

  • Trans-Fats. Partial Hydrogenation the World Is Watching the US FDA
    World Nutrition Volume 5, Number 3, March 2014 WN Feedback World Nutrition Volume 5, Number 3, March 2014 Journal of the World Public Health Nutrition Association Published monthly at www.wphna.org/worldnutrition/ Trans-fats. Partial hydrogenation The world is watching the US FDA Access February 2014 Geoffrey Cannon Inspiration on Fred Kummerow here Access February 2014 Fred Kummerow Feedback letter here Fred Kummerow, the man in blue (left), is sueing the US FDA, specifically the women with the red background (right), Margaret Hamburg and her boss in the Obama cabinet Kathleen Sebelius From Fred A Kummerow: The US Food and Drug Administration has given the food manufacturing industry another 60 days to respond to their intention to withdraw the classification ‘generally recognised as safe’ from trans-fats. The comment period that was scheduled to end 7 January 2014 has been extended to 8 March at 11:59 pm, US East Coast time. If and when this action is at last taken, trans-fats will in due course effectively be eliminated from the US food supply. As stated in my previous WN letter, last August I filed a lawsuit against the US Food and Drug Administration (1,2), specifically addressing FDA commissioner Margaret Hamburg and her boss the Department of Health and Human Services secretary Kathleen Sebelius (right hand picture, above). This states that the FDA’s failure to ban the use of partially hydrogenated oils containing artificial trans fat in food for human consumption, is unlawful. This is not a matter for the food product manufacturing industry. The prime duty of the FDA is to protect public health.

  • Brecht Between Mediums Kristin M. Seifert a Dissertation Submitted
    Brecht Between Mediums Kristin M. Seifert A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of philosophy University of Washington 2019 Reading committee: Stefka Mihaylova, chair Jennifer Bean, co-chair Scott Magelssen Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Department of Drama ©Copyright 2019 Kristin Seifert University of Washington Abstract Brecht Between Mediums Kristin M. Seifert Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Stefka Mihaylova Department of Drama Is Epic theory solely applicable to live performance? Was German writer and director Bertolt Brecht a champion for the theatre and theatre alone? This dissertation combines analysis of live and recorded performance, historical analysis, Epic theory, film and media theory in order to discuss Brecht’s shifting relationship with film and other multi-medium performance traditions. The historic and theoretical exploration of Brecht both influencing and being influenced by cinematic work seeks to reclaim him as a multi-medium artist and explore a kind of continual flow of Epic theory and technique not merely between Brecht’s cinematic and stage projects but also in the work of his contemporaries, fellow exiled artists during World War II, and a direct line of cinematic careers shaped, to this day, by the Brechtian legacy. The larger scope of this case study questions the allocation of artists, like Brecht, into disciplines and troubles the existing medium-disciplinary hierarchies-separations that negatively affect the ways in which performance is created, viewed and studied. This dissertation, therefore, more broadly examines the segregation of the performing arts within the academic world and scholarly research that maintains a staunchly medium-specific approach that fails to recognize the endless stream of theories and methods that circulate between performance mediums.

  • Ajay Kurian at Sies & Höke, Düsseldorf
    Ajay Kurian at Sies & Höke, Düsseldorf By Moritz Scheper MAR 2018 There is a lucid, analytically trenchant text by Ajay Kurian, ‘The Ballet of White Victimhood’, about Jordan Wolfson’s Colored sculpture (2016), written with the anger of desperation. Kurian, an American of Indian origin, wrote it a few days after Trump was elected, looking for explanations in his colleague’s work for the victory of the self-proclaimed silent majority, ‘a breed of white males who believe they are persecuted while being the aggressor, and are powerful while maintaining a sense of painful fragility’. It is precisely this cognitive dissonance that Kurian continues to explore in his undoubtedly ambitious Düsseldorf exhibition American Artist. On the upper floor of the completely darkened gallery, a deep flokati rug in muted cream colour is laid out, conjuring the atmosphere of a filthy motel. Old pizza boxes are scattered about (Locavores Eat Globally, all works 2017), next to an overturned fridge full of broken salsa bottles, exuding an acrid stench (Master Slave Complex [Proleptically Speaking], II). The sauces are labelled with slogans such as ‘Trump that Bitch’ and ‘Redneck Sauce’, suggesting the following interpretation: this is the parallel world of one of those hate- Ajay Kurian, Satters and Pullman, 2017, mixed media, filled white men who believe in the dimensions variable.
