Brandright
Trademark law is guilty of overprotection. This overprotection pits both a company’s in-house attorneys against its own marketing professionals and the company itself against its most loyal customers. The result appears illogical, at best, to consumers witnessing the effects of this clash between a company’s marketing needs and perceived legal requirements
The USSR and The GDR: Mutual Collapse
The Soviet Union had a number of satellite states, where communist puppet regimes were propped up in order to serve the interests of the Soviet Union. The Eastern Bloc was established with the goal of spreading the Soviet style of government, regardless of its unpopularity. The only reason that the communist regimes in these states were able to survive was because of Soviet support. This meant that the decline of the Soviet Union and the individual bloc states fed into each other. This is examined through the case of the German Democratic Republic and its relations with the Soviet Union
Supplemental Training and Injury Prevention in the Sport of Ultra-Running
By definition, ultra-marathon running is a sport that covers any distance above the 26.2-mile marathon distance in a single race. The mountains of Virginia host many ultra-marathon races that attract endurance runners from all over the nation to participate. Training is an essential component of running an ultra. Although there is not one specific way to train for an ultra, there is research that correlates the success of the top ultra-runners and their training preferences regarding supplemental training and injury prevention. To gain a more complete understanding of how to prepare for a successful ultra-marathon, an online survey was created and sent to all runners who participated in four local ultra-marathons. The findings were compared and contrasted to published literature on the subject matter
Non-conformal higher spin supercurrents
In four spacetime dimensions there exist two off-shell formulations for the
massless multiplet of superspin , where . These
supersymmetric higher spin gauge theories, known as longitudinal and
transverse, are dual to each other and describe two massless fields of spin
and upon elimination of the auxiliary fields. They
respectively reduce, in the limiting case of , to the linearised actions
for the old minimal and the non-minimal supergravity
theories. Associated with these gauge massless theories are non-conformal
higher spin supercurrent multiplets which we describe. We demonstrate that the
longitudinal higher spin supercurrents are realised in the model for a massive
chiral scalar superfield only if is odd, , with .Comment: 12 pages; V2: typos corrected; V3: published versio
