Well-known trade mark protection: confusion in EU and Japan
No full textIn this thesis concerning the protection of well-known trade marks against confusion in the European Community Trade Mark (CTM) and Japanese trademark systems, the author critically considers the difficulties in comprehensively defining ‘well-known trade mark’ in the relevant international trade mark instruments. After critical analysis of various definitions of both ‘trade mark’ and ‘well-known trade mark’, she undertakes a comparison of the definitions of the parallel concepts of ‘trade mark of repute’ and ‘syuchi-syohyo’, and also undertakes an assessment as to the extent to which these trade marks are protected against confusion and kondo in the CTM and Japanese systems, respectively. It is concluded that the protection of well- known trade marks against confusion in the CTM and Japan cannot be said to be completely clear, and the author identifies some areas for legal refor
The Gospel on the Margins: The Ideological Function of the Patristic Tradition on the Evangelist Mark
No full textIn spite of the virtually unanimous patristic opinion that the evangelist Mark was the interpreter of Peter, one of the most prestigious apostolic founding figures in Christian memory, the Gospel of Mark was mostly neglected in the patristic period. Not only is the text of Mark the least well represented of the canonical Gospels in terms of the number of patristic citations, commentaries and manuscripts, the explicit comments about the evangelist Mark reveal some ambivalence about its literary or theological value. In my survey of the reception of Mark from Papias of Hierapolis until Clement of Alexandria, I will argue that the reason why the patristic writers were hesitant to embrace the Gospel of Mark was that they perceived the text to be amenable to the Christological beliefs and social praxis of rival Christian factions. The patristic tradition about Mark may have little historical basis, but it had an important ideological function in appropriating the text in the name of an apostolic authority from the margins or periphery

Three Baked Clay Figurines from Antelope Valley, California
No full textDuring mitigation work undertaken at a small occupation site (LAn-771) on Edwards Air Force Base in 1977 (Sutton 1977, 1978), a small baked clay figurine fragment with a punctate design was recovered. When this piece was shown to R. W. Robinson at Antelope Valley College, he remembered having recovered two similar artifacts during his excavations at Ker-303, a large occupation site about 25 miles west of LAn-771. This report describes these three artifacts and offers some limited comparisons with other figurines from southern California. These specimens are the first reported fired clay figurines from the Antelope Valley, the southwesternmost part of the Mojave Desert

Testing a Regional Model of Changing Settlement and Subsistence Patterns in the Western Mojave Desert: Results from the Coffee Break Site
No full textIn an effort to better understand the prehistoric settlement and subsistence patterns in the western Mojave Desert, this thesis represents an attempt to test a regional model that posits a relationship between culture change and environmental fluctuations in this region for the last 4,000 years (Sutton 1990, 1991a, 1991b). The model is based on research in the Fremont Valley, with an emphasis on Koehn Lake. It postulates that during periods of mesic environmental conditions in the valley, prehistoric populations would have intensified their exploitation of lacustrine resources. The model further posits that as the climate became increasingly arid, these populations began to move further and further from the lake. Therefore, according to the model, it would be expected that during periods of greater precipitation, sites would be aggregated around the lake, with relatively large populations. Conversely, during times of greater desiccation, sites would be located closer to more distant water sources, such as streams and springs, with a concomitant decrease in population levels. This postulated movement away from the lake as the environment became more arid would also have resulted in a change in site function from permanent habitation to seasonal sites. In order to test the model, a site was chosen in Red Rock Canyon State Park that exhibited certain characteristics that made it ideal for this purpose. Investigations at this site, dubbed the Coffee Break site (CA-KER-5043) by State Park personnel, indicate that it appears to represent a multicomponent, seasonal site, with sporadic occupation during the Gypsum Period and more frequent occupation during the Rose Spring Period. Based on the findings of this research, therefore, the model is supported
Snapshot in time: life at the Dove Springs Aqueduct Construction Camp
No full textFirst recorded in 1995 by Red Rock Canyon State Park Ranger Mark Faull, the Dove Springs Camp is one of many construction camps occupied between 1906 and 1913 dedicated to the installation of the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power Aqueduct (LADWP). Located with the Bureau of Land Management Dove Springs Off-Highway Open Area, the Dove Springs camp was the only LADWP camp to be located at the end of a railroad spur. The camp also both supported the construction of the Red Rock Tunnel and supplied goods to the camps in the Freeman Division of construction. A study of the camp was conducted between 2000 and 2003 to fulfill the requirements for a master's degree and expand on the work first started by Faull. Then the data that was recorded at the Dove Springs camp was compared and contrasted with the data from the Dove Springs the Alabama Gated Camp, which was studied by Caltrans archaeologists in 1999, and a few other previous recorded aqueduct construction camps. The study concluded that there were some discernable differences between the camps regarding how the camps were socially structured, their layout, and the ethnic makeup of the workforce
