Adidas Prevails in ‘Three Stripes’ Trademark Case
The decision affirms earlier decisions that would allow Adidas to oppose a Belgian company’s registration of two parallel stripes on shoes as an European Union trademark.I find I am in agreement with the European Court.
My disagreement is with the lack of a reasonable time limit.
When the protected mark is out of production for two years protection should lapse.
Copyrite should lapse with the death of the next generation.
An author without children is another problem.
Copyrite should certainly lapse when the work goes out of print. Files should be protected by Copyleft.
Artists should be paid for their work.

There is nothing to be done about this weather now.
Halting the use of fossil fuel will begin to fix the weather in fifty years.

Not the Worst Hotel in the World, Perhaps, but ‘the World Is Very Big’
With 500 rooms, one guest, pigeons on the top floors and many cockroaches, the Grand Hotel in Kosovo reflects the travails of a new nation.Close it.
There is no way out of the trap but higher taxes.
The government must pay the cost or eliminate the cost.

The Root of White House Chaos? A Weak President
Trump is a bystander in his own administration — and that could be more trouble than the woes of Hicks or Kushner.Donald Trump was elected to shrink the government.
That means shrinking the cost of government.
That means doing less.
Trump is trying to do less.
