Extractions: Between 1650 and 1750, African slaves were present in all of the colonies along with African-American freemen. By 1680, however, Virginians and others considered the African slaves vital to their economy and would not relinquish their grip on slavery or their newfound wealth born on the bent backs of others. The status of indentured servants who could obtain eventual freedom turned to legalized lifetime slavery for the individual and his/her progeny forever and ever. Some of the many injustices that the slaves endured were the laws making it illegal for them to marry, being traded and sold by the owner's will and not allowed to stay with their families, seeing their women raped and forced to bare children as additional slaves for their brutal white owners. Slaves were denied education and the opportunity to learn to read. Segregation in all aspects of life followed African-Americans well into the last century, including entrance into schools and into employment.

Extractions: Since The AIM Group exclusively services individual inventors and small companies with limited financial resources, it does not require up-front fees for the evaluation, marketing and/or licensing functions that are provided. With this business philosophy, The AIM Group selects only those inventions that the firm feels have significant promise and are within The AIM Group niche of expertise. Once The AIM Group decides to undertake a project, it then prepares and submits a marketing agreement, which outlines the responsibilities of both The AIM Group and the inventor as licensor. Since we are investing our own time and capital, The AIM Group formulates a market strategy that is based on proven market entry principles to increase the chances for success of the marketing and/or license programs. Because each product is unique in the way it must be manufactured and marketed, there is no set formula for how your new invention will be sold. The AIM Group will provide you with a comprehensive marketing and licensing program that includes a comprehensive "License Agreement" that was developed by The AIM Group principals for their own inventions. Elements of this document are compiled from several Fortune 500 companies' licensing agreements with specific clauses designed to protect the independent inventor. Of course, we will tailor a licensing agreement to the individual inventor's product and vary the terms depending on the negotiation process with potential licensees.

Extractions: Roots Reggae “Satta Massagana” became one of reggae’s most popular songs; a Rastafarian hymn based on the Ethiopian Amharic language. It was released on the most famous Jamaican roots label, Coxsone Dodd’s Studio One. The spiritual message of this song made it an anthem heard on radios, in dance halls, and even in the churches of Jamaica. A string of hits followed including “Declaration of Rights”, “Yimmasgan” and “Let My Days Be Long." So the Abyssinians are that rarest of entities, a founding band and original sound of reggae that can still be experienced in live concert. The Bronx New Heaven Shout Band African American gospel brass band "Praise him with sound of the trumpet; praise him with the psaltery and harp. Praise him with the timbrel [tambourine] and dance; praise him with string instruments and organs. Praise him upon the loud cymbals; praise him upon the high sounding cymbals. Let everything that hath breath praise the Lord." The United House of Prayer for All People takes literally this directive of Psalm 150: 3-6. Through their all brass "shout bands," congregants of the United House of Prayer offer up joyous sounds of praise through this unique African American sacred musical style. The Bronx New Heaven Shout Band is one of today’s most exciting bands to carry on this tradition.

Extractions: On Intellectual Property THE SUPREME COURT DECIDES WHEN THE CLOCK STARTS TICKING FOR AN ON-SALE BAR By Tony V. Pezzano Introduction The recent Supreme Court decision in Pfaff v. Wells Electronics, Inc.,1 which addressed the issue of an on-sale bar under 35 U.S.C. § 102(b) of the Patent Act, is grounded in long-standing policy and precedent evolving from as early as The Telephone Cases2 upholding the Alexander Graham Bell patent in 1888. The Court resolved once and for all the question whether an invention can be on sale within the meaning of Section 102(b) if it had not been actually reduced to practice. Section 102(b) provides that a patent cannot be obtained if the invention was . . . on sale in this country more than one year before the application for the patent was filed. This on sale bar to patentability is frequently raised as a defense in patent litigation. If an accused infringer can prove that the patentee placed the invention on sale more than one year before the filing of the patent application, the patent is invalid. In its November 10, 1998 decision in Pfaff, the Supreme Court unanimously held that an invention need not be reduced to practice to activate the on-sale bar. In other words, the Court held that an invention can be on sale within the meaning of Section 102(b) even though a working, physical embodiment of the invention had not been made. A decade earlier, the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit had abandoned the reduction to practice requirement,3 beginning a decline into a morass of confusion over the standard of development that an invention was required to meet to trigger the one-year limitation on patentability. 4,5
