Introduction (show text)
"Introduction" Text: Good morning. My name is Kim Teh Sik, but you can call me "Jim." I'm from Pusan, South Korea. I'm the second oldest of four siblings, but by far the best-looking. I've lived in the United States for 3 years, and I'm going to school at the University of Florida, studying Chemical Engineering. When I was a kid, I always dreamed of being an astronaut. Now, I just dream of someday paying off all of my student loans. After graduation I hope to move to the Napa Valley in California to work for a vineyard. Believe it or not, wine-making requires a lot of chemistry, and you get to taste your work. I don't have a girlfriend right now... But my phone number is 569-2...

"Blog" Text: I am an incredible programmer. The only thing keeping me from Python, PHP, or Ruby coding awesomeness is knowledge... and skill... and training... and, um practice. OK, I may not be a Ruby all-star, but I could be if I wanted to. Likewise, you can do anything for yourself that an attorney can do for you, including writing legal documents. Lawyers just happen to have the knowledge, skill, and training. If I wanted an iPhone app, I'd totally talk to a programmer. If I wanted legal documents, I'd talk to a lawyer. In fact, lawyers are programmers. Writing and reviewing legal documents is, in many ways, just like writing or debugging code.
Presentation (show text)
"Presentation" Text: Good evening. Today I have been asked to discuss patents. In the United States, Patents are issued by the United States government and are designed to protect a device that embodies a new or novel idea or principle. There are several types of patents. A Utility Patent protects any new and useful process, machine, method, or composition of matter. Utility patents currently have a term of 20 years from the earliest filing date. A design patent protects nonfunctional, new, and original ornamental design for a manufactured item-- such as the design of the iPhone, for example. Design patents have a term of 14 years from the date of issue. Patents are a type of intellectual property, and are subject to the Internal Revenue Code as intangible assets. As such, a patent is subject to capital gains treatment upon disposition and may be amortized over its life. Owning a patent gives you the right to stop others from manufacturing and selling the patented item. Please note that this demo does not constitute legal advice.
