Phone: Fax: E-Mail: suzanne@rswade.net By Suzanne Wade sell Patents Trademarks and Trade Dress Another form of protection that can be sought for gem designs is trademark and trade dress protection. A trademark is used to identify something as originating from a particular creator, while trade dress refers to a distinctive style recognized as belonging to a particular designer. Artists may also want to consider trademarking the unique names and terms they use to describe their gemstones. For example, Cottier Shank has sought trademark protection for the name she gave her line of gem carvings, GemScapes Enforcement Patent it Yourself, by David Pressman, published by Nolo Press. Even if you plan to hire a patent attorney to assist you, this book will help you understand the process better, and can even help you tackle some parts of the process yourself to reduce your legal fees.

Reports Submitted to FAMSI: Bradford Andrews Stone Tools and the Elite Political Economy at Epiclassic (A.D. 650-900) Xochicalco The Assemblage The elite flaked stone assemblage consists of 2,331 artifacts that were classified into items produced by core-blade, lapidary, and bifacial technologies ( Table 1 Table 2 The sample contains 1,920 core-blade artifacts ( Table 1 Table 1 ). The majority of these artifacts are standardized, parallel-sided blade segments (N = 1,314, Table 3 Table 3 ). The remaining core-blade artifacts are cores, core fragments (N = 9, Table 3 ), and artifacts related to the rejuvenation of core platforms (N = 133, Table 3 , Figure 5). Most of the core-blade artifacts appear to be items used for utilitarian tasks although a few of them like the needle-tipped segments may have had ritual significance (i.e. blood-letting). The assemblage did reflect evidence that lapidary techniques were used to make beads in the elite zone ( Figure 5 Figure 5 , g). Two eccentrics and one small projectile point ( Table 4 ) also exhibited grinding (Figure 6, shown below) that may have been applied in the elite zone.

Welcome to the Mahatma - - Shamballa Multidimensional Healing Network Site MORE CONSIDERATIONS - OVERDOSING ON CRYSTAL ENERGY Excessive concentration upon one of the nerve/energy centres may cause an imbalance in the physical body. For example, an abnormally large amount of the hormones may be secreted by the particular gland associated with that centre. Should this sort of imbalance be noticed, correction may be achieved by the use of a stone with tendencies to normalise those activities. The matter should be addressed before it becomes acute. One possible avenue is to use a grounding stone to absorb any excess energy after the completion of some such operation. Another is to open other chakras, which can recreate a balance by maintaining an energy flow or circuit until the excess can be drained away. The ultimate goal of the student is to expand his sensitivity enough to perceive an imbalance as it occurs and to be mentally able to adjust the chakras to compensate for it. Some specific suggestions for these purposes are: For normalising spleen and pituitary Garnet, Peridot
