Read a random definition: ferial day

A quick definition of first user:

First User: The first person to use a trademark is called the first user or senior user. They are usually considered the owner of the trademark. This is different from a junior user who starts using the trademark later.

Sensitivity Training: This is a type of training for managers and employees to learn how to treat others with respect, especially women and minorities, in the workplace. The goal is to prevent discrimination and create a positive work environment for everyone.

Sensus: This is a Latin word that means sense, meaning, or signification. It is often used in phrases like "an evil sense" or "in an honest sense".

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: The first person to use a trademark. This person is usually considered the owner of the trademark. Also known as senior user.

Example: If someone starts a business and creates a unique logo to represent their brand, they become the first user of that logo. They can then register the logo as a trademark and have legal ownership over it.

Definition: One or more instructional sessions for management and employees designed to teach them how to treat others with respect, especially women and minorities, in the workplace.

Example: A company may hold sensitivity training sessions to educate their employees on how to avoid making offensive comments or actions towards their colleagues. This can help create a more inclusive and respectful work environment.

Definition: A Latin term meaning sense, meaning, or signification. It is often used in phrases such as malo sensu (an evil sense) or sensu honesto (in an honest sense).

Example: In legal cases, the interpretation of a law or contract may be disputed. The court may then consider the sensus of the language used to determine its true meaning.

they definitely overcharged me in the restaurant but it was a good wine for a fair price (couldve been better)

Pinotage from South Africa. If you get a good bottle it is unique and beautiful. If you get a bad one it tastes like grape cough syrup. Last time I had a Valpolicella was Valentines Day. I normally do not like the cranberry notes you get from the semi dried Corvina grapes but it was a very nice wine for Valentines day.

Crazy upcoming grapes I have also been into recently are Kerner and Solaris but really, all wine is good.

i went to a winery near cornell called castel grisch (take notes wasp!!!) and they only grew local varietals, even one produced by cornell viticultural students and faculty called "cayuga". the other was chancellor and the winery did a blend of those two grapes

The father/mother of Cayuga is a grape called Seyval Blanc and some other grape. I have never had it but it is on my list. Good choice. @sireggan
HELP! I hadn't yet completed my application to ASU (still waiting on both LOR's as well as an updated undergrad transcript), but for some reason, the application status in lsac says "complete" and I received an email from ASU saying that they are reviewing my application. Has this ever had something like this happen?
I'm worried that I'll get a denial since it's not even truly complete, and then I wont be able to apply again for this 2023-2024 cycle (the application deadline is July 15th by the way)
@SirEggan: notes taken! thank you
@ValleyH: congratulations, excited for you for this new chapter in your life

and best case you toss your name in the mix for a spot if it opens up
