Week 8 BOC: Progress on Final Project

For my project, I plan on having two lawyers to contact just in case one of them might not help me for my project. Their names are Gwynne Dumbrigue [1(702) 762-5888] and John Lambertsen [1(702) 796-3476]. I want to ask them questions based on my major for school, which is Fashion Retail and Marketing. A question example would be, "When it comes to running a fashion retail store, what contracts do I need to be aware of if a person wanted to put my own designer pieces into their store?" I also want to ask them questions on copyright and trademark regulations for writing because I run a blog and would like to make sure I am doing the right things to gain credit for what I write. An example of a question I would ask is, "For the pieces of work I write on m blog, is there a way I could copyright every single literary work, or do I have to have a copyright for each entry?" I am hoping to gain more knowledge of contracts by asking such questions and hopefully will receive the correct answers in doing so.

As far as classwork goes, I am pretty up to date with my blog and my tweets. I will be honest and say that there are two blog post that I've started, but need to finish. One is the Wall Street Journal post from Week 5, and the other is the list of lawyers I'll be thinking of contacting for the final project from Week 7. Hopefully I can do that today so that I'm not scrambling around the last week of class trying to post them. I shouldn't procrastinate on homework because I should be doing it every week in order to receive the full credit.
