Susie Feldman: Nude for PETAby Hilton Hater at . Comments
Cows and chickens might be excited about a nude Susie Feldman posing in the following ad for PETA, but Playboy can't be pleased about this.
After all, Mrs. Corey Feldman is baring it all in the August issue of that magazine (on newsstands Friday!), and we're guessing it would have preferred exclusive status as the first public appearance of Susie naked.
Fans of John Lennon are likely shocked at the following ad, as well. It's a recreation of a famous image of that Beatles singer and wife Yoko Ono. Compare the pictures below:
Are Corey Feldman and Susie Feldman worthy of emulating John Lennon and Yoko Ono?
On the naked vegetarion front, you can also check out ads that feature Christina Applegate, Alicia Silverstone and Holly Madison nude for PETA.
And on the naked pictorial front, you can also check out tennis player Ashley Harkleroad nude in the upcoming Playboy issue.
Tru dat! Blondes only turn heads cuz their bottle bleach job is impossible to miss. It's like a car crash. You can't help but look. Who's hotter...Halle Berry or Pamela Anderson? Enough said. Brunettes RULE!
I agree. My wife speaks the truth. Susie's hot! I should know. Gretchen is young, petite, and brunette. PERFECT! Whoever said blondes have more fun obviously underestimated the appeal of a beautiful brunette. Blondes are a dime a dozen. Any chick can be a blonde for the price of a box of hair color. I'll take a sexy brunette any day!
Are you kidding me?! Corey and Susie are so worthy! Susie is so damn beautiful, it's scary! AND she's had a baby. That's sick! Corey's not bad himself. They are picture perfect. They put John and Yoko to shame! For sure.
Aww cute and all , but at the same time they seem too perfect! ;)

Have you got the power?
Summary: When you consider rural areas for your new datacenters, don't forget to consider the cost of actually getting the necessary power to your facility.
I've recently been talking about an operations consolidation process with a large SMB that has more than a dozen medium size business units scattered throughout the country. They've been considering consolidating there computing operations into a single datacenter which they would build where the company got its start (and still has a presence), a small town in north central Pennsylvania.
They don't currently have a traditional datacenter; each unit's main office basically has a computer room with anywhere up to 50 or so servers in a few racks, and with a couple of local IT guys who are responsible not only for their computer room, but also for supporting local operations. The owner of the business believes that if he consolidates those servers into one datacenter he will get the efficiencies of scale such an operation can bring while freeing up his local IT guys to support end-users more effectively and to deploy new, forward looking applications and services.
The business owner had given me a call just to get another opinion; to make sure that he had crossed all his 't's" and dotted all his "i's", and at the time we spoke it seemed that he had done his due diligence and that his plans were solid and made sense. However, a recent news article I caught has made me rethink his issues. It seems that a small town in Oregon lost a datacenter project because of their inability to deliver enough power to meet the datacenter's needs without a 15-20 million dollar overhaul of the local power grid..
I admit that I totally overlooked that possibility; residing in the Northeast Corridor on the Eastern Seaboard when I have business concerns about power delivery it's about cost, not about the fundamental capacity of the system to deliver what I need. So as you look at rural, low-overhead locations for your future datacenter plans, here's one more item to add to your checklist: How much will it cost to get power to where I need it.

Three DIY New Year's Eve Nail Art Ideas
If there is one night each year to really go all-out in the glamour department, it's New Year's Eve. Sure, it's overhyped and usually overpriced but we can get behind any excuse to experiment with a bold beauty look. To help us ring in 2013 right, we asked our friend Fleury Rose the U.S. Nail Ambassador for British brand Illamasqua to teach us three DIY nail art designs that are appropriate for an all-night New Year's bash. These glittering looks will have you waving goodbye to 2012 in style!

Bubbly Champagne
Pour some of the gold polish out onto a tray and use a dotting tool (the head of a ball pin or a toothpick can work in a bind) to create the first row of dots. Paint one in the center and one on each side — they should be attached to the stripe of gold you painted. Next, fill in the nail with smaller dots to look like bubbles. Fleury's tip: You can make the dots different sizes by applying less pressure.

Many women love shoes, and finding the latest styles is a popular hobby. Shockingly, some of the "latest styles," aren't really that new at all. They're modern twists on very old concepts. Here is some of the history behind a few popular shoe types. High heels - In the fashion industry, a shoe is only a true high heel if the heel is over 3.5 inches tall. Even though they're considered women's footwear today, that isn't how they started out. Another interesting thing about heels is that … [Read more...]

Two women have been arrested in connection with a home invasion.
Jaylaine Keith, 28, and Alexandria Miller, 29, have been charged with aggravated robbery.
Harris County Precinct 8 deputy constables said the two were armed with a shotgun when they robbed a woman in an apartment in the 16400 block of Buccaneer Lane about 2:30 p.m. Wednesday.
Keith and Miller ransacked the woman's apartment and put a shotgun to the resident's face, investigators said.
The women fled when the victim called for help, officials said.
Keith and Miller were arrested a short time later.

Don't Stress!
You may think illness is the cause of that excruciating headache, your frequent insomnia or your decreased productivity in general. Did you ever stop to think that the amount of stress you are under is the cause of these concerns?
There's good news and there's bad news. The bad news: everyone has stress in their life and it is not ever going to leave… The good news: it does not have to affect you to the extent that you might be letting it!
Here are some helpful hints to keeping stress from getting the best of you–
GO! – That toxic mixture of Adrenaline, Cortisol and Norepinephrine that has reached its peak and is now running like a stampede of wild boars through your body will be incinerated by getting up and getting physical! Run, jump, dance, stretch- ANYTHING! Raising your heart rate and working up a sweat will force your mind to focus on regulating your entire body and calm the portion of your mind that is causing you distress.
SLEEP – Science has shown that people can survive longer without food than without sleep. When a person does not get enough sleep, they are less patient and easily agitated. Maintaining a regular cycle consisting of 7-9 hours of sleep every night will help when you are confronted with your day-to-day stresses simply because you are not tired. How painless is that?!
ACKNOWLEDGE TO CHANGE – Practice the art of identifying stress and notice how your thinking can contribute to that stress.
Ask yourself these 4 questions:
1. Is it true? (Yes or no. If no, move on to 3)
2. Can you be absolutely positive it is true? (Yes or no)
3. How do you react when you believe that thought?
4. Who would you be if you didn't believe that thought?
By identifying the source of your stress and acknowledging your reactions and/or feelings, you are giving yourself the opportunity to grow beyond your deepest concerns. For every action there is a reaction. If you don't like your reaction or the way something made you feel the last time, you now have the freedom to change it for the future.
It is easier said than done and stress is a constant battle for anybody, but there are millions of ways to ease the struggle. Who knows, maybe these tips will really help you as much as they have helped others!

Production Details
An unofficial France/Australia co-production shot in Tahiti and the Tuamotu islands, with a small amount of filming in France.
Production company: Silverfilm (France)/Australian Television Enterprises (Australia)
Budget: n/a, but Lee Robinson and Chips Rafferty invested £40,000 of the money they had made from money they had made by way of studio hire of the old Cinesound studios in Bondi (acquired by them May 1956) and by working on the US documentary series High Adventure.
Locations: Tahiti and Tuamotu Islands, and a few minor scenes set in France
Filmed: late 1958
Australian distributor: None
Australian release: None; the film was released simultaneously on three Paris screens on 15th October 1959, and quickly disappeared.
Rating: n/a
35mm Eastmancolor
Running time: 98 mins (Oxford, Variety)
VHS time: 1'24"50 (US television version 1'28"15)
Box office: Never released in Australia. The film was poorly received in France on a very limited release, and was quickly cut down to a television version for US screening which made no mention of the Australian component of the production. The film resulted in the effective dissolution of the feature film partnership between Chips Rafferty and Lee Robinson.
Robinson noted in an understated way that the film "didn't go well" and blamed the outcome on it being released at the time when theatrical feature films were being hit by TV.
Screened Locarno Film Festival July 1959
Mention has been made of a DVD release of the film in Tahiti, but it hasn't been possible to confirm this - it possibly derives from a reference to the ICA in Tahiti - the Institut de la Communication Audiovisuelle - making a digital copy of the film for its internal use.
A terrible copy of the American TV version circulates amongst collectors on DVD under the title The Climbers, derived from tape sources and possibly copied off air.
It is also possible to discover a copy of the original Australian version circulating on DVD amongst collectors, albeit with time code. This is the best version currently available.
1. Source:
The film is based on the novel Manganese by François Ponthier.
The novel later sometimes became known, after the film was made, as l'ambitieuse Managese.
The film was an unofficial French-Australian co-production. Tahiti's ICA lists it as a coproduction franco-italo-australienne (here). It is uncertain which elements Italy might have contributed to the co-production, if any, but perhaps it reflects the presence of Henry Crolla, an Italian jazz guitarist and film composer, given the lead music composing credit.
The adaptation is credited to René Wheeler, a French screenwriter and film director, who was nominated for an Academy Award in 1947 for "best story" for A Cage of Nightingales with Georges Chaperot.
(Below: René Wheeler)
2. Production:
The film was initially going to involve shared directing duties, with Lee Robinson directing the English language scenes, and director Yves Allégret handling the French, but after a few days filming, Robinson withdrew, and Allégret directed both language versions. Two language versions were prepared, but it is often mangled versions of the English language version that remain available.
Where Robinson exerted control over co-director Ralph Habib on the previous French-Australian co-production, The Stowaway, on this occasion it seems that Allégret quickly won the battle to control the set, but apart from an extended opening tracking shot, there's little in the film beyond standard coverage to suggest a French auteur is teaching an Australian director how to compose a film.
3. Box Office:
In an extensive interview with Albert Moran, Lee Robinson merely noted that the film didn't go well, but blamed the problems on the way the film business was being impacted by television:
"There used to be big page advertisements: 'Pictures are better than ever. Anamorphic lenses were brought in, Cinemascope, anything to try to get students into the cinema. The whole business was going bad. Stowaway didn't do too bad, but after that nothing at all worked. (full interview here)
Robinson contrasted the $1,500 a week he made as a director working on the High Adventure documentary series for Lowell Thomas and American TV, up against the £15 ($30) a week he made working in features (he obtained the documentary work after the US producers saw his New Guinea feature Walk into Paradise).
4. The significance of Lee Robinson and Chips Rafferty's partnership:
In the 1950s, the Australian production industry - that is, films made by Australians, rather than films made by Australians for US and UK production companies was at a low ebb, though it would get even lower in the early to mid 1960s.
Right through the decade of the 1950s, only the partnership of Robinson and Rafferty kept the torch alive. They made a few duds and the path into co-productions with the French was a blind alley that produced few useful results, but then co-productions, official and unofficial, have always found it difficult to resolve conflicting tensions between the demands of domestic markets (key cast, story elements) and the need to make the show work internationally.
They did however, with their quest for exotic locations, make a number of films which still repay viewing, most notably King of the Coral Sea and Walk into Paradise, a singular achievement at a time when no one else was up for it. They carried on the legacy of Ken Hall and F. W. Thring and Charles Chauvel, and it is a pity, somewhat ironic, that their life in features should have sputtered out with a film titled The Dispossessed.
Robinson continued to shift towards documentary and television production, and in July 1959, he was commissioned by rock music promoter Lee Gordon to make Rock 'n' Roll, a feature-length record of an all-star concert at the Sydney Stadium.
While Robinson was involved in They're A Weird Mob (1966) and Nickel Queen (1971) and Attack Force Z (1980), he is now best remembered for being one of the principals behind the ground-breaking children's series Skippy, which also involved directing the feature-length spin-off The Intruders (aka Skippy and the Intruders).
Rafferty made use of the persona he tirelessly established in outback movies and the family shows Bush Christmas, and the two Smileys to produce a baleful portrait of a malignant cop in an Australian classic, Wake in Fright (directed by Candadian Ted Kotcheff).
Without the work of this pair, the Australian production industry in the 1950s would have been virtually invisible.
5. Tahiti:
In relation to the status of the film in Tahiti, the ICA website provides this information:
L'ICA a retrouvé ce film dans les archives de « Screen Sound Australia». Par chance, le copie du film était encore de relativement bonne qualité, et une numérisation du film a pu être réalisée. Le producteur australien du film, Lee Robinson est décédé il y a quelques années. Sa fille (sic), Penn Robinson, actuelle propriétaire du copyright de la version anglaise a permis à l'ICA de téléciner le film et lui a donné gracieusement les droits d'exploitation non commerciaux. Aussi étrange que cela paraisse, le film n'a jamais été distribué en Australie, Penn Robinson découvrait donc ce film pour la première fois grâce à Tahiti. L'ICA tient à remercier Marie José Schantz qui, bénévolement, à traduit les dialogues du film. Yves Allégret (1907-1987) est le frère cadet du cinéaste Marc Allégret. Il débute en 1930 comme assistant de celui-ci, puis occupe différents postes dans les équipes d'autres réalisateurs. Parallèlement à cette formation sur le tas, il tourne ses premiers court-métrages. La guerre étant déclarée, il est mobilisé. En 1941 il tourne en zone libre son premier long métrage « Tobie est un ange ». Il se fait remarquer ensuite avec des films d'une grande noircur poétique comme « Dédée d'Anvers » ou « Manèges » écrits par Jacques Sigurd et avec Simone Signoret. Yves Allégret aété marié à Simone Signoret, avec laquelle il a eu une fille atherine Allégret. (here)
A rough translation:
The ICA found this film in the archives of "Screen Sound Australia." Fortunately, the copy of the film was still relatively good, and a scan of the film was achieved. The Australian producer of the film, Lee Robinson died a few years ago. His son, Penn Robinson, current owner of the copyright of the English version allowed the ICA to telecine the film and gave it the rights to free non-commercial use. Strange as it may seem, the film was never released in Australia, so Penn Robinson discovered this film for the first time thanks to Tahiti. The ICA would like to thank Marie José Schantz, who volunteered to translate the dialogues of the film. Yves Allegret (1907-1987) is the younger brother of filmmaker Marc Allegret. He began in 1930 as an assistant director, then held various positions in the teams of other réalisateurs. Parallel to this hands-on training, he shot his first short films. The war was declared, he was drafted. In 1941 he toured the free zone's first feature film "Tobias is an angel." He then was noticed for films of great dark poetry such as "Dedee d'Anvers" or "Rides" written by Jacques Sigurd with Simone Signoret. Yves Allegret was married to Simone Signoret, with whom he had a daughter Catherine Allegret.
6. Date:
The Australian credits assign copyright in the Southern International English-language version to 1961, but in this instance the film has been dated to its year of production, in conformity with other sites' dating of the film, and with this site's preference to date films as close to their time of manufacture as possible.

Google refunds two dollars for cop jobs ad on biker website
Google will reportedly refund two Australian dollars – that's $US1.89 or £1.19 – after an ad placed by Victoria Police appeared on the website of the Mongols motorcycle club. The backdrop to the refund is a dramatic series of raids last Thursday that saw Victoria Police, providers of thin blue line as a service for the …
The Australian Police Minister has now "temporarilly" disbanded a group of "Mongols", slightly diminshing the groups drug and gun stockpile and having "successfully" claimed damages from Google.
Total loss for the Mongols, about nothing... It's merely a setback....
Total loss for the police... probably a few hundred thousand dollars, maybe even into the millions, plus the temporary lack of backhanders and all of this for a return sum of .........$1.89...... and that was only because Google placed an inappropriate ad......
The police minister must be proud of that ehhhh.
Everyone knows that the drug market is a lucrative business but no-one ever seem to tackle the root of the problem. You can't stop drugs being sold whilst the market is crying out for them.... It's all smoke and mirrors....
I agree....
...while we're at it, we'll ignore the rapes, murders, muggings, armed robberies and other viloent acts that these lovely people deal in shall we, after all, it's only a bit of weed they are dealing in.
That way we can save a couple of quid.
Re: I agree....
Oh yeah right, the Mongols should be collectively punished for rapes, murders, muggings, armed robberies and other viloent acts .
Should we also collectively punish all the Romans for putting Christ on a cross.
Should we collectively punish all the Australians for destroying the great barrier reef, for speaking with funny accents and drinking too much beer.
Should we collectively punish all of the Americans for being fat
Where and how do you define the limits of collective punishment.
The majority of people in groups are just sheep following wolfs. You don't punish the sheep in order to stop the wolf.
Re: I agree....

That's exactly what you *should* do. It might wake the sheep up and stop them giving all that 'follower' power to the wolves.

Right, because if weren't for the weed these lovely people would all be perfect models of society and the crimes you listed would never ever be committed by anyone anywhere.
"The Australian Police Minister"
Victorian Police Minister... Not The Australian Police Minister. He is Australian (if you count Victoria as Australia), and he is a minister for policing. But this guy doesn't represent all of Australia's police.

Aussie Plod Rides Roughshod Over Owners of Hogs?
Are Australian Hell's Angels different from the UK ones? I've known several chapter members over the years (one of my best friends used to be one, and still looks the part), and the worst they ever seemed to do was ride whilst somewhat over the alcohol limit. Certainly nothing to get draconian non-association orders over.
From your description, it sounds like the UK Hell's Angels are very different from the Australian ones. In Australia a very sizeable portion of the illegal drug trade is carried out by various outlawed bikie gangs (including Hell's Angels), most of which are frequently involved in violent turf wars. There may be some cuddly individuals in those gangs, but on the whole outlaw bikies are best avoided.
NOTE: there are also many legit motorcycle clubs who exist purely as social groups for motorcycle enthusiasts, these clubs are entirely harmless and are not to be confused with the dangerous outlaw bikie gangs.
According to Google, "2 Australian Dollar equals 1.19 British Pound Sterling".
Odd that
They didn't notice the Mongols' trademark was seized by the US 'waaay back in 2008. It was even reported here: http://www.theregister.co.uk/2008/10/22/doj_seizes_biker_trademark/
Do the US and Oz have a reciprocal trademark agreement?
Any actual Mongols should have been put on a boat back to the nearest Mongolian port. Right?
Bon voyage.

Learning and Leadership Development
Securing manager commitment to learning can be challenging, especially in uncertain times. However, gaining buy-in and delivering effective manager learning is a critical step in ensuring peak organizational performance.
Because of their shared experiences, peers can learn from each other in a way they can't from anyone else. This makes peer-to-peer learning in mentoring networks essential.
One of the most critical questions facing learning leaders today is: How do we develop workers for jobs where the knowledge, competencies and relationships needed change almost constantly? Leaders know that the typical approaches to learning must shift in order to keep pace with the demands of a new work environment. The focus today needs to be on accelerating the rate at which employees gain competency.
Senior leaders from large, dispersed organizations say they need a more connection-based learning model that allows people to:
Effective social learning requires a culture of experimentation.
As recently as a year ago, I viewed informal learning, social media and mobile learning as buzz terms. My reaction was summed up perfectly by my Alaskan fishing guide — "all hat, no cattle." Translated from the Katmai Wilderness of Alaska to today's organizations, it means "lots of show but no substance."
I was especially skeptical of a recent CLO Breakfast Club audience poll of who in the audience was on Facebook and for how long. I confess I am still not on Facebook even in the face of considerable pressure from my sisters in Florida to become their friend. Hell, I'm already their friend and have been since their birth years ago.
Although job satisfaction remains low, many employees remain unlikely to seek a new job and are looking for internal career development opportunities instead.
In Hollywood, there's an old truism that says the surefire way to draw a crowd for a show is to give the people what they want. With the majority of employees dissatisfied with their jobs, it's advice that CLOs would do well to heed.
According to a recent survey of 3,400 professionals in 29 countries conducted by management consultancy Accenture, fewer than half (43 percent of women and 42 percent of men) are satisfied with their current jobs. That finding isn't a surprise given the lingering effects of a deep recession.
As global business grows more complex, corporate leaders need to have a wider skill set and global experience to succeed. Experiential learning programs work best, but only when paired with the foundation of the classroom.
Executive leadership demands have evolved. Growth in the global business environment has prompted many organizations to reinvent themselves to meet the enlarged scale and scope. This places a spotlight on how leaders are developed. The modern leadership profile requires a complex yet malleable skill set.
Convention says one is better at listening, while the other is more attuned to courting strong business relationships. How can CLOs recognize and develop the two?
A quick look at the mainstream business press these days will yield plenty of evidence of what's become a popular debate: which personality type makes for better leaders — introverts or extroverts?
Some would suggest that the answer is easy. Because of the front-facing culture of global business, which demands that leaders pair their intellect and expertise with the ability to deliver a visible and lively external brand, it appears as if the extrovert has a clear advantage.

Apple chokes on Woolworths logo
Apple has moved to prevent Oz retailer Woolworths from trademarking a logo - something which would allow it to "slap its branding and logo on every imaginable product", as The Age puts it. The Woolworths and Apple logos The problem is, according to Apple, that Woolies' brand frontage is too close to its own. Woolworths' …
Prior Art
Apple Corp, the beatles record label were using an Apple as a trademark waaaaay before Steve Jobs had even heard of a computer.
I hope this is as full of fail as most Mac trademark grabs.
How retarded
do Apple think their customers are if they might confuse those two logos?
Get a better name
I'm going to start a new company. It's going to be called 'Easy McApple.' The revenue stream will be based on betting who will sue us first...
Wow, Oz still has Woolworths ! Perhaps they could come and re-open some of the British stores for us and show us how it's done.
Woolies revenge...
...for those multicoloured gumdrop iMacs.
I hope Woolworths told Apple
to kind fuck off.
Remind me again why are they so highly rated?
I think it is...
.. about time that strong action was taken against those companies whose name and logo bear no resemblance to the product(s) they are selling.
Hence, Apple will need to prove that it's major business is in growing and selling Apples (the fruit) - failure to do so will render their name and logo null and void !
MicroSoft will be forced to change to "World Domination Software" or WoDoSo.
Google to "TheRealBigBrother(be afraid, very afraid)"
either they laywers are on crack, or they've started to belive their own marketing / patent bullshit.
Next they want to ban the certain letters of the french and german alphabet as they have a circly bits and some above them.
I think the Oz people will be sticking two fingers up to apple and giving woolies the go ahead as it looks nothing like there logo. get a grip apple
There's fun to be had...
...if we can get Sir Paul and Ringo to give Woolworths the thumbs up.
Paging Mr Mcartney...
Woolies sell records, right?
Apple Corps sued Apple computer about apple selling music, right?
So will the ex-beatle now sue woolies?
Oh, and Woolworths? What was wrong with the old red-and-gold W? Has the British debacle devalued it? our local peddler of cheap frozen foods still has the glass panels in the front with the big W on them.
I canse Apple's point
It's not just an apple but one with a bite taken out of it.
Woolworth's don't sell half-eaten fruit, does it?
@ Jimmy Floyd
"I'm going to start a new company. It's going to be called 'Easy McApple.' The revenue stream will be based on betting who will sue us first..."
I like that so much that I'm going to steal it for my email .sig. If you don't like that you can sue me :-)
Comparing apples with oranges
"they would have to take action against every fruit-seller"
Especially those that take a bite out of the apple before putting it on display.
I remember reading somewhere that Apple chose their name and logo in 'homage' to Apple Records - and so from the outset chose to live in a namespace with more than one company with their name and logo.
Funny how they don't remember that themselves....
Trademark Specificity
Itdoeslook as though the lawyer you quoted didn't know what they were talking about. What Apple said, about computers, seemed quite sensible, based on other cases. Australian law of course, but if Apple can move into the music business, Oz Woolworths can make computers, and other trademark holders will have reason to be a bit picky.
Besides, don't Apple, under trademark law, have to do something in this case.
Font Madness
Next up, Apple suing the creators of Most Fonts, for δ and Ó, which can all be misconstrued as apples to a deranged mind. ώ will be next, once this Woolworths business is sorted.
I eagerly await the day...
... that iApple gets royally shafted for this (yet another) attempt at trying to lay claim to every image of an apple that has ever existed. As EddieD said, Apple don't even sell apples. They can't stop the people that do sell apples advertising the fact.
Comparing the two logos is like comparing two cars... that each have four wheels and doors. That doesn't make them the same, or even remotely similar.
Get off your bleached ivory tower, iApple, and have a bowl of fruit. Maybe then you'll get some colour in your life and see the light.
Woolies in Oz
Woolies in Australia sells groceries, fruit, veg, meat, booze, canned goods, etc.....oh and other handy homely bits and pieces found in any modern supermarket. And maybe a few DVDs, and some low-cost, Chinese made, electrical goods etc.
The logo reminds me of fruit, pretty much what they sell.
Apple are rotten.
@Anonymous John
"I canse Apple's point"
"It's not just an apple but one with a bite taken out of it."
That's the Apple one...
Just turn the Woolworth stem to the left!
That would solve everything!
But it IS actually the Apple logo...
As funny as it all is, the Woolies logo IS the Apple logo, but in green....
Will they be stopping...
...any company with a fruit based logo?
Well, they certainly look different to me. But the designers of Woolies' new logo have definitely made the logo look like some sort of apple. Quite why, I don't know. I'm sure Oz has much more interesting fruit. Perhaps it's a Bible thing.
Still, we can't be surprised at Apple for taking action. All big companies do it. After all, M$ took action against Mike Rowe when he set up his online software store, Mike Rowe Soft (search the archives - it's in here somewhere).
Woolies should know better, Apple do what they always do, the World keeps turning.....
My childh δ δd has been st δlen
δ and Ó, what these are not apple logos?
next you'll be telling me there is no such person as father christmas or the cat in the hat.
paris: as i wouldnt mind abusing her logo
Apple thinks it owns the word pod too....
Strangely enough our directors are fighting off a simular challenge relating to our use of a word in our product range that can mean a container of many smaller items, despite our markets and products being quite different from Apples typical customers and products.
Somehow, i think my bosses are stuborn enough to go to court, since he was stubborn enough to return his iPhone because of this.
@ Jimmy Floyd
£5 on Disney
This isn't the Woolies you're looking for...
Bad news for the nostalgics in this thread. The Oz Woolies has no relation (and never did) to the original American Woolworths or its British offshoot. They just snapped up the name in the 1920s and used it themselves when they found out it wasn't already registered in Australia(!)
With nuts
@y Jimmy Floyd Posted Monday 5th October 2009 10:12 GMT
You Sir, owe me a new keyboard! (starts trying to clear redbull from said keyboard)
How about the Hamas logo?
Are Apple going to sue them next?
@Gordon Pryra
Are you on drugs?
Sadly this will be just another round of lawyers trying to justify their existence. Some firm of US lawyers will have already billed Apple for an insane amount of money to start this. But Woolworth's lawyers won't be telling them to sod off. Far from it. They will be advising Woolworth's management of the seriousness of the threat, and the need to spend huge amounts on yet more lawyers fees (their's) to address the threat. In response the US lawyers will lick their lips and draw up a hugely expensive plan of action and advise Apple of the need to move forward with it forthwith. End result? Lawyers in both countries buy new holiday villias in the Bahamas. It is great work if you can get it.
All we need is...
Guy Goma to come and talk about this on BBC News again :)
curly green thing
The curly green W is quite a nice logo but if they're selling electronics, including MP3 players and computers, it's not obvious why they need to put a stalk on it unless the intention IS to make it suggestive of the Apple logo. At the very least they could have the stalk pointing the other way to make it clear it's different.
The way trademark protection works is Apple have no choice but to challenge competing uses. If they don't defend their logo they use the rights to use it themselves.
As for Apple vs Apple Corps (the Beatles music publisher), Apple were on the receiving end of precisely this sort of challenge themselves in a couple of well publicised legal challenges, which they settled out of court. The point is moot as to where the name and logo originally came from. You can buy and sell trademark and Apple *paid* the Beatles in order to be able to use the trademark relating to the music business, so now it's theirs. (That's also when they changed their name from Apple Computer Inc to plain Apple Inc.)
Precendent? Use the one Apple set for em!
Living in Oz I have actually seen the woolies apple shaped logo in action, it is 100% linked to fresh food, the jingle for woolies in Oz is "Woolies, the fresh food people." Now Apple got around the Beatles trademark problem by simply pointing out that the Beatles sold Music and Apple sold computers (ignoring for now iTunes and the Apple Music Shop). To argue against Woolies using thier logo to sell fresh food would be to argue against their own argument that let them use the apple in their trademark.
Now to iTunes and et al. When apple started selling music (despite having promised never to do so, the Beatles didn't want two Apple logos in the music industry) there was a big court case, surely we all remember that? In fact the Beatles lost that case, the summary was thus;
"But Mr Justice Anthony Mann ruled that the computer company used the Apple logo in association with its store, not the music, and so was not in breach."
So Woolworth simply needs to dredge up the details of this case and argue that their green curly Apple logo is used in association with their store, and not any computer hardware it may sell, using Apples own court case as precedent. I can't imagine Woolies lawyers are idiots and since Apple themselves have already set the precedent I smell a big fail coming Apples way!
@Jimmy Floyd - Easy McApple
Absolutely sterling comment!
I can see their point.
That leaf is pointing in the SAME DIRECTION! That's not appropriate.
I'm confused... It's like... . . .seeing . . . double. . .
The real story
Understand that the I.P. attorneys have to justify their stupidly large annual billing by demonstrating to the Board of Directors just how much "money" they "saved" the company by rigorously defending the company's I.P.
It doesn't matter if it badgering teenagers that appropriated their trademark for their Apple fan page with "Cease and Desist" letters, or going after a "hackintosh" manufacturer. That's why stupid things like this end up in the news. It doesn't have to make much of any sense at all, it just has to sound good at the end of the fiscal year.
Looks like sour grapes to me..
No. Not the logos, the attitude of Apple computers. The Woollies logo is FAR better looking than that silvery blue monstrosity next to it IMHO.
Maybe Woolworth's should buy Apple records
and reopen the suit based on Apple's reasoning.
Take a Deep Breath People!
Rolf Howarth and Steve Brooks seem to be in the minority of people who properly understand the situation.
The argument which Apple are presenting is that Woolworths may use the logo on electrical items and _at that point_ the logo similarities may cause confusion. This is why Apple Inc. did not have to settle with Apple Records _until the former started selling music_. Prior to that point, they were operating in completely different spaces so there was no scope for confusion.
Apple, like any company, must defend their trademarks in order to preserve brand identity. Now that Apple have brought this action, it falls to Woolworths to convince a judge that they will not be using the logo in association with any electrical items. And if they don't, but decide to do so at a later date, Apple can go after them for breaking this promise (in the same way that Apple Records went after Apple Inc. when they entered the music selling business - as they had already won a ruling which prevented Apple (Computers) Inc from doing so).
So, Woolworths will be free to use the logo provided that they do not apply it to electrical goods, and Apple needs to ensure that this ruling is passed as early as possible.
Logo for 'Easy McApple'
The logo for 'Easy McApple' would be am Orange coloured Apple with a bite taken out of it sitting in front on a big yellow M! (c) C Evans 2009
so I was passing my grocery store
... And saw these fantasically real 3D apple logos arranged outside, so I inquired within about laptops. Never understood why the salesman checked the coast was clear, but he produced a nice shiny laptop from a bag under the counter, and I duly paid my money. You can image how horrified I was when it didn't boot into OSX... i'm off to phone trading standards!!
@Jimmy Floyd
Classic. Though if you added a few more companies names together in there you could have a better business model :)

There may be no question posed to Angelina Jolie more than whether or not she and equally mind-bogglingly attractive partner Brad Pitt will ever get married. (Well, that and "How about a Beowulf sequel, already?!" Sarcasm.) It's not just the tabloids splashing the still-burning question across their cover. Heck, even Jolie and Pitt's children are asking them about it.
During an interview with Christiane Amanpour for a segment that will air on both Good Morning America and Nightline, the Oscar winner, who is making the rounds to promote her latest film and directorial debut, the war drama In the Land of Blood and Honey, assured her interviewer she wasn't the only one asking that oft-posed question. Jolie said, "The kids asked me the other day, and I asked them if it was just because they wanted to have a 'big cake.'" (In her kids' defense, even if that is their reason, it's a pretty valid one.) She continued, "They see movies that have the people getting married in the movies … you know, the happily ever after. Shrek and Fiona are married." Then Jolie, who has become something of an expert question fielder over the past few years, told Amanpour, "We've explained to them that our commitment when we decided to start a family was the greatest commitment you could possibly have. Once you have six children, you're committed." Well, that answered that, all right. Watch the moment below: READ FULL STORY

DEFINITION of 'Survivorship Bias Risk'
The possibility that an investor will make a misguided investment decision based on published investment fund return data that are unrealistically high because a company's poorly performing funds are closed and their returns are not included in the data. The danger is that the investor will not achieve the returns he anticipates because he has based his decision on incomplete and misleading information.
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'Survivorship Bias Risk'
Survivorship bias risk is one of many reasons why investors should not rely too heavily on past returns to make their investment decisions. Other types of risk that investors might encounter are non-reporting bias risk (the danger that overall returns are misstated because some funds, likely the poorly performing ones, decline to report their returns) and instant history bias risk (the possibility that fund managers may choose to report performances to the public only when they have established a track record of success with a fund, while leaving out unsuccessful funds). In addition to past performance, investors should consider factors such as cost, risk, after-tax returns, volatility, relationship to benchmark performance and more.

Decriminalization is why
Submitted by John Ashman - A... on Mon, 06/25/2012 - 11:14. Permalink
Decriminalization is why there is still a problem.
It's not truly legal and the state can still screw with anyone it chooses.
Make it entirely legal and people will just grow it in their back yards and you won't have an MJ dispensary across the street from you, nor will the government be sucking more tax money from you.

The portable room air conditioner was the perfect size for the space I needed it for. It cools great, does not make a lot of noise and does not take up a lot of space.
Much noisier than anticiapated, but does a good job cooling our 1500 sq.ft. home. No batteries for remote though packaging stated they were enclosed. If it wasn't so noisy, I would give it 5 stars.
what I got was a noisily shanking unit I can't believe anyone check it out.
This air conditioner came dented from UPS. Overstock sent another one ASAP. Works great! Thanks!!
The unit is very noisey. For this reason I would not purchase again. The 2nd negative is that the unit must be moved to drain the tank. IThe drain is about an inch off the floor so draining is a challenge.. The room the unit was purchased for is not connected to the homes central air system. The room is large and has a very high cieling. The unit works as per described but the noise is more than one would expect from a high tech unit.

A Brisbane SEO Company With A Difference
While every agency in Brisbane sings the same tune 'We are different", it's important if you are shopping for a new SEO company to ask a few important questions so that you know what are the key things that make the difference in your SEO results. The first of which should be, which brands have you provided SEO Services to?

Search Factory Has Featured In:
Google has altered Consumer Behaviour – SEO is the Answer!
The foundations of consumer buying behaviour are understood as the recognition of a need, the search for a solution, the evaluation of alternatives, purchase decision and post-purchase satisfaction.
Though the process may differ in lead generation, e-commerce, property or service delivery, the motivations for purchasing remain constant. However, advances in digital media and accessibility to information online, has altered the process of searching for solutions and weighing up the alternatives. Thus the way businesses present information to consumers must also change.
SEO help businesses in Brisbane and around the world to optimise website content to ensure greater visibility in organic search results and an increase in search traffic.
Here's a few things you should know about how Google and search marketing have changed the Australian consumer's behaviour:
Those businesses who adapted to the influence search marketing has over consumers reaped their share in over $237 billion in Online Sales from 2011-2012! But with opportunity comes competition, and with over $3.34 billion spent on Online Advertising in 2012, and 2.67 million '.com.au' websites registered at June 2013, you need to ensure you have high visibility to capture customers (and revenue) in this essential advertising medium.
Considering the impact search marketing has had on both online and offline Consumer Behaviour, and the competitiveness of the medium, your brand's visibility in search results is essential. Otherwise your competitors will continue to capture your potential clients!

Stop Training Your Sales Team!
The headline of this article may sound like blasphemy from a sales trainer who has more than 38 years of experience training salespeople, but it is a heartfelt suggestion. When many CEOs and business owners see revenue problems, they default to a statement like, "Let's get some sales training going." Whereas, in reality, I believe the same CEO will realize a far greater improvement when he/she trains their company to sell.
