Bros this one hard small.

1st off both can be very very lucrative, its all about the amount of exposure u get and the passion you put into the business. No one can tell you for certain which one will be more successful in your case. You really cant look at it generally. each business case is a subjective experience and affected by its own unique circumstances. What I would advise is that you should do the one your wife is more passionate about or the one her heart and mind first goes to when thinking about it. If she is truly skilled as u say then the potential for success is high with both. Start with the one she feels most natural with and then as time goes on you may start the other. Hope i did not confuse you.

Pets › Re: Help! My Dogs Are Infested With Ticks! by Patented: 3:13pm On Sep 05, 2016
get any of the soaps recommended above and bath the dog, follow this up with washing the places your dog usually hangs around with the soapy water, if this is possible. I have also found it beneficial to do this just after it rains. reason is that there is a tendency for rain to wash away ticks and fleas that are lurking around on the ground on walls and plants.

repeat the process till you are free of ticks.

Celebrities › Re: Billionaire Wife Dabota Lawson Accused Of Stealing (photos) by Patented: 4:32pm On Aug 26, 2016
Like I said Dermis can always claim for passing off reason is that the goods look almost identical and the get up is very similar. the fact that the wold does not pay attention much to designs (as you say) does not change what the law says and does not mean you will fail in a claim for passing off or infringement of design.

where there is a remedy under the law it exists as such even if it is rarely used. All it requires is for one person to claim it. Designs are being registered on a daily basis and the reason is that many people still take their designs seriously.


Sanchez01:
Lol... Never knew someone uses paten.ted as a moniker. On to more serious things, patent is a very broad discourse with varying angles to it. Also, there are different types of patent, varying from design to utility, ie., function (of the said product).


http://www.nolo.com/legal-encyclopedia/types-patents.html
http://www.neustel.com/Design-Utility-Patents/Design-Patent-vs-Utility-Patent.aspx

Unfortunately, what comes to the mind of many whant 'Patent' is mentioned is invention and innovation of something never seen or fashioned before

Like I earlier stated, Natural Dermis can only make something for themselves if indeed they are the first to use such packaging designs. Albeit, the world, as it stands, barely pay attention to design patents and mostly channel their energy on utility patent. Every thin of milk, regardless of brand, have the same shape, just like sardine cans all over the world. The same applies to Mayos and chili containers.

Bottom line: Natural Dermis is only agree to see that a local brand is rising to the ocassion here. They should calm down and be ready for stiff competition.
Celebrities › Re: Billionaire Wife Dabota Lawson Accused Of Stealing (photos) by Patented: 1:05pm On Aug 25, 2016
There is more to intellectual property rights than what you have said.
you have:
Patents-referring to Inventions.
Designs - referring to Designs (product design and packaging)
copyright- referring to artistic works, photos, sound, writings etc
Trade marks- referring to words, phrases and logos.

First the rights allegedly infringed here are Design rights and not Patents. Now the fact that Natural Dermis has not registered their design rights (we are not sure of the registration status) is not the end of the world. lack registration makes a claim for infringement impossible. However the aggrieved person can always make a claim for "passing off" ie due to the similarity in the packaging the copying party is said to be passing off its products as those of the aggrieved party.

So Natural Dermis can always sue for passing off if their design is not registered.

Sanchez01:
Well, we might not know for sure if Dermis granted Dabota a patent right. It might as well be a lost cause for Dermis if their products are not patented. By the way, I can find a place precisely in the photos where one company called out the other.

What am I saying sef?

Milo's container (I mean the sardine Milo) is exactly the same as Titus (brand) itself, while Meisha looks exactly like Geisha. It's all about patent. Unfortunately enough, most of these brands don't patent their products and Dabota, I'm sure, she would have done her research to figure this.

Unfortunately for Natrual Dermis, if it truly happens to be that their bottling and packaging styles are not duly patented, then this is nothing but hot air and it's dead on arrival.

why the youths take sides with any of the top 2 political parties is beyond me. both parties are filled with similar people, both parties given the opportunity would milk us. neither party has an ideology all the say are mere publicity stunts. if you feel a party's candidate is a good choice, support him and vote for hjim but do not even think you need to own allegiance to either party.

they are filled with mostly self serving twats. if not thjey wont decamp at ease and NIgeria woulda been a better place 2day
Education › Re: 5 Words Nigerians Use That Doesn't Actually Exist In The Dictionary by Patented:
OrlandoOwoh:
"Doesn't" is right. It's the short form of does not.
and Don't is the short form of "do not" the statement would be "5 words Nigerians use that DO NOT actually exist in the dictionary" AND NOT "5 words that Nigerians use that does not actually exist in the dictionary".

the rules of concord dictate that when the subject is singular the verb would be singular and vice versa. As such using a singular subject the statement would read "1 word that Nigerians use that DOES NOT actually exist in the dictionary".

see example six in the link below.
