Wednesday, June 30th, 2010U.S. Patent No. 7,681,672 for cryogenic pulsejet and method of use.
A cryogenic system is described for boring a small-diameter hole through various materials including rock, soil and stone. It employs a valveless technique in a borehead [3000] where cryogenic fluid [7] fills at least one pulsejet [3100] which has proximal [3001] and distal [3003] ends. The cryogenic fluid [7] is frozen into a plug [8] near the distal end [3003], acting as a valve. Cryogenic fluid [7] just distal to the frozen plug [8] is rapidly heated by thermal units [3510, 3530] causing it to become a rapidly-expanding gas bubble. The rapidly-expanding gas bubble forces any liquid [7] distal to the expanding gas out of the distal end [3003] of each pulsejet [3100] causing it to impact the material [I]. Rapidly repeating this process causes the system to bore a hole through the material [I].

Wednesday, November 18th, 2009U.S. Patent No. 7,584,807 for Multiple Pulsejet Boring Device for rapidly boring through the ground having directional boring capabilities.
ABSTRACT:
A method and device for boring a hole through a material along a desired path includes an umbilical subsystem [2000] connected to a boring subsystem [3000] having a plurality of pulsejets [3100]. These pulsejets [3100] repeatedly receive and ignite a combustible fluid [7] in a combustion chamber [3230] causing a portion of the fluid [7] to be forced out of a nozzle [3260] at high speeds as a fluid slug [10] that impacts materials ahead of the pulsejet [3100].

Coming to America / Trademarks
Thursday, November 12th, 2009In the movie Coming to America Mr. McDowell said look… me and the McDonald’s people got this little misunderstanding. See, they’re McDonald’s… I’m McDowell’s. They got the Golden Arches, mine is the Golden Arcs. They got the Big Mac, I got the Big Mick. We both got two all-beef patties, special sauce, lettuce, cheese, pickles and onions, but their buns have sesame seeds. My buns have no seeds.
Recent Trademark Cases in the Eastern District in Allentown
On October 26, 2009, a complaint for trademark infringement and unfair competition was filed by Tilted Kilt Franchise, LLC in the Allentown Office seeking a preliminary and permanent injunction and damages for use of the trademark TILTED KILT. The Complaint (hyperlink to attached file) states the plaintiff is a franchise company for Tilted Kilt Pubs and defendant operates a pub named The Tilted Kilt in Mount Joy PA. If you are going to build a franchise on a trademark and then license franchisees to use that mark, you must enforce your trademark rights or your franchise has little value.

Recent Trademark Cases Filed in the Middle District of Pennsylvania
Thursday, August 6th, 2009The Hershey Company recently filed two trademark cases, one against Little i, Inc., and another against Karma Candy, Inc. These cases were filed in the district court in Harrisburg.
An interesting copyright case was filed with the federal district court in Scranton, Scholz Design, Inc. v. Heritage Homes, Ltd. This one relates to the copyright in architectural building plans. It’s interesting because there is a separate body of copyright law that deals explicitly with the protections afforded structural blueprints and and architectural plans.
