Complainant is the owner of numerous trademarks and service marks for the mark SWISS CHALET. The mark was first registered in Canada in 1967 in connection with food for human consumption and related restaurant items, and has since been registered in the United States (December 22, 1992), the United Kingdom (June 10, 1982), the Soviet Union (June 9, 1993), Japan (August 31, 1993), and several other countries. Since the 1950's, Complainant has used the marks in signage and advertising to promote its restaurant business in Canada and elsewhere. Complainant operates 181 restaurants in the United States and Canada specializing in rotisserie chicken and ribs under the SWISS CHALET mark. This includes 135 SWISS CHALET restaurants in Ontario alone, and ten within the Ottawa/Kanata region, including one in Kanata proper.

The domain name at issue was registered on December 21, 1999, by an entity named Impreshun.com, located at 10 Stokes Crescent, Kanata, Ontario, Canada. On April 6, 2000, Impreshun.com emailed the Complainant, identified itself as the broker for an unnamed owner, and offered to lease, rent, or otherwise transfer the use of the domain name to Complainant. Complaint, Annex 5. The sender of the email was identified as Allan J. Grimard, President & CEO of Impreshun.com.

WOW WOW WOW!!!!!

best "exciting implications" spot EVER!!!

I am SOOOO glad I got my whole roll off of AP and UB. If you have any money on there guys seriously get it off...this "your money is safe in absolute is baloney"....these companies use "player funds" for "expenses" all the time..and if they go under no you will not get your money back.

(p.s. this goes for tons of pokersites but NOT pokerstars, that's why I'm so thankful they insured our money at a legit bank, A+ job stars, way to be a step above everyone else)

Can someone explain to me how gambling911.com can be such an inept journalistic source? Set aside their grammar and spelling mistakes in all of their articles. First members of their site are seen in pictures with AJ Green, and then their articles include little tidbits information of info like, "AJ, who has a fondness for mushrooms (not the kind you eat), is probably wishing at this point he was tripping out real bad." Really? Their website is more comedy than it is journalism.

[teddyFBI]

Something a little suspicious, although it's prob not important:

The cybersquatting ruling says that AJ was the owner of the impreshun.com domain name. Well, the whois info for that domain shows that it was re-registered just 2 days ago (roughly the same time the cybersquatting link first appeared in these threads) by an anonymous domain registrar. Is there any way of finding out what the whois info was for this domain 3 days ago? (e.g. before it was re-registered anonymously)
