The 35th Federal Court issued a decision on the case between the Brazilian company LG Informática Ltd and a global manufacturer LG.
According to court LG Informática Ltd use the name commercially earlier than registered marks owned by LG Electronics Group in Brazil. Therefore, the court considers that these marks should be cancelled in their part of computers and computer equipment in class 9. Moreover, 5 new LG's applications for trade mark should be rejected by the Patent Office in the country in respect of those goods. For other classes, the court allowed the registration of marks.
Most likely, this decision will be appealed because it is seriously affecting the interests of LG Electronics Group for goods such as computers and computer equipment, where the company is very strong.

Originally published at Russian patents blog I’ve stumbled upon a site which offers full text Russian patents for free – http://partkom.com In fact, a year ago we attempted to set up a similar resource – except we dealt with english abstracts of Russian patents.

Grand Fantasia Gold is important; it can play a special role in this game. I personally like it very much, do you? Grand Fantasia is a brightly themed game with anime inspired graphics. Perhaps the most unique aspect of the game is its detailed Sprite pet system. Fans of cute anime inspired games like Luna Online and Fiesta Online should certainly be able to find something to like in Grand Fantasia, but even though the game has fluid gameplay and attractive graphics, it does little to push the genre forward. Even though the game does not exactly revolutionize the genre, Grand Fantasia is still a high quality free MMO that is well worth checking out. Players start off their journey in Grand Fantasia as a classless novice and can chose their first class at level 5. The game first four job

Between January 6 and 8, 2010, several Mexican media, such as the Mexico City-based newspapers La Jornada and El Universal informed that the Instituto Nacional de Antroplogía e Historia or National Anthropology and History Institute (INAH) fined the operator of the well-known chain ‘Starbucks' for "using prehispanic images in some mugs offered in sale at its premises, without proper authorization". This case has been incorrectly identified as an intellectual property infringement case. Actually, this matter is not related to intellectual property or copyright, but to the special regulations that govern the use and property of the pieces and objects created by the native cultures settled in Mexico before the arrival of the Europeans, generically known as prehispanic pieces and cultures.
