EOC Week 3: Jeopardy

Building the Jeopardy game is a lot more difficult than it may seem, especially since a lot of the definitions have the answers in the questions. So you are having to reword a lot of the questions, this is not fun and it is a lot of work. So there goes my weekend I will be working on the Jeopardy game and studying the copyrights book. But how else will one learn, so you must do what you must do. Once I get the hang of it all it may not be so bad, and it could actually turn out to be fun. I will remain positive and look at this experience as a learning tool for the future. It is definitely challenging and a good way to learn the definitions for this class and the future of owning a business. Here are two examples of the Jeopardy game: Question 1: Federal (Blanks) generally prohibit businesses from engaging in monopolistic activities, that is to engage in practices purposely designed to give the business dominant control over a particular market segment. Answer: Antitrust Law. Question 2: The (Blank) serves as a cover letter for the application. It describes what is being filed,, the names of inventors , the number of pages, the fee and other information used by the USPTO to categorize the filing. Answer: Transmittal Form. As you can see creating this Jeopardy game is quite challenging just like the actual Jeopardy game was. I guess the major difference between the two are that for the actual Jeopardy game they have to study for years and years and hope to get a spot on the show. As a pose to this all we had to do was read the chapters in the book and get those down, to make sure that we know what we are talking about.

EOC WEEK 2: What Do You Think Of Lawyers?

My experience with attorneys has been so, so. I once had a medical case that went on for more than a year and to say the least went very badly. One of the attorneys was previously married to the person that we were suing. Is that a conflict of interest? I certainly believe it was it certainly had an effect on my case. After a long and tedious journey with the case it turned out to be one big waste of time and a very disappointing settlement, not to mention the firm took thirty three percent on top of the ridiculous settlement. That would be the last time I hire an “ambulance chaser”. In that experience alone I am completely turned off the lawyers and am very skeptical about their intentions. Lawyers seem to be money hungry. I’m sure there are some attorneys that are honest and hard working, but I would say it’s finding a needle in a hay stack. Too bad lawyers get a bad rap, but these opinions did not just fall out of the sky their reputation perceives them. Attorneys are a lot like doctors, they are just in it for the money, (in my opinion) that is. Whatever happened to doing what you love, not just having a career for the large paycheck. Hey, I say attorneys can make a comeback for the better if the next generation truly has a love of the law and generally want to help the public, because they have a passion for the law not because they can make a big paycheck. By the way; take heed and research your attorney before you hire them “ambulance chaser’s are a no go, take it from me I speak from personal experience. If I never see another lawyer it will be too soon…

EOC Week 1 About Me

As a Fashion Retail Management student, I am excited to learn and prefect my craft as a shoe designer. In the upcoming years my goal is to design fabulous shoes for the fashionable and sexy woman. As I prepare myself for the fashion world I intend to envelop all the knowledge possible about the exciting billion dollar business, hoping to take a chunk of the goods and make a dramatic mark on the fashion world. After I graduate college I plan to open a successful boutique in either Las Vegas or Los Angeles. Moving to Las Vegas and choosing The Art Institute has been an awarding and knowledgeable experience thus far; I look forward to furthering my education and becoming a fierce shoe designer. Designing shoes is my true passion; I have a true substance abuse problem (expensive footwear!) Which made for me thinking; hey I should design my own footwear and sell the heck out of them… So putting myself through college to make certain that I have a successful business was one of the smartest decisions I have made. Doing what you love for a living is truly a blessing and I look forward to doing just that in the future. I think everyone should shoot for their goals and do what they love; it’s the only way to live life.
