What year was the first pink panther cartoon released?

User Avatar

Asked by Jewledrose

The first entry in the series, 1964's The Pink Phink, featured the Panther harassing his foil, a little white moustached man who somewhat resembles the animated version of the feature films' Inspector Clouseau (this character is officially known as "The Man"), by constantly trying to paint the little man's blue house pink. The Pink Phink won the 1964 Academy Award for Animated Short Film, and subsequent shorts in the series, usually featuring the Panther opposite the little man, were successful releases.

Is music intellectual property?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Virtually all recordings are protected by copyright, and all contemporary music. Older works (prior to 1923 in the US) may not be protected, but arrangements, adaptations, performances, and recordings of it would be.

Who had 1000 US Patents?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Thomas Edison was granted 1093 US Patents - a record that has yet to be broken by a single individual. He also held a couple hundred foreign patents in the UK, France, and Germany. This goes without mentioning the 500-800 denied US applications he filed as well as other inventions he may never have had sought protection for.

Can you get copyright protection on a bumper sticker slogan?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

There is nowhere in Colorado that you can copyright your bumper sticker, for a number of reasons. First copyright is a federal law. You have to register with the US Copyright office (http://www.copyright.gov). Second, names titles, common words/phrases, slogans, etc do not qualify for copyright protection.

Now as to trademark, you will have to file with the US patent & trademark office (http://uspto.gov). There are certain requirements that have to be met and a search will have to be performed before trademark protection can be offered.

Can you sell a handmade craft with a Disney character?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

It's to your best interest to contact 'Disney' and ask their permission. If your craft should take-off then you can't use it as it's an infringement. If you are just doing it for a child or in a nursery then there should be no problem and you don't need permission. A young woman in Vancouver, B.C. started up a Bistro and she loved Robert deNiro so much she named it 'Raging Bull' and Mr. deNiro sent someone out to tell her to take down the sing and a letter ensued and it was rather blunt.

How do you patent your own martial art?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

I've spoken to my lawyer about this, because I know martial artists that threaten to sue people for "teaching their stuff". The short answer is no.

If you write a manual or produce a video or otherwise fix something into a tangible form - then that thing has copyright. That's the book or video itself, but not your style.

You could also file a trademark on your style name or logo. Krav Maga is famously going through trademark lawsuits.

The real issue with trying to protect a style is that there is virtually no martial arts movements you could make that don't already exist in some other style.

Who is fault was the death of Thomas Becket?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Henry II as he said ' Who will rid me of this trubelsome priest' I don't think Henry meant it that way as the knights who killed becket did. The King Said 'Who will rid me of this trubelsome priest'; Once Thomas was killed the king said he didn't mean that he should actually be killed - The day after his death, apparently he walked around the Cathedral with his back being whipped to say sorry To Thomas. So its really your decision. The King blamed Himself; But the knights blamed themselves. :)-Lana

What are the similarities between trademarks and copyrights?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Both are forms of unlicensed copying, but it's possible to have one without the other.

An example of copyright infringement without plagiarism would be uploading a track from an album you bought: you're not saying it's yours, but you're still copying it without permission.

Plagiarism without copyright infringement would happen when you take materials in the public domain and try to pass them off as your own. Romeo and Juliet? I totally wrote that.
