If there’s no trademark, then every Chaim, Yankel and Moishy can start their own Uncle Moishy concert.
If S&D own the naming rights to Uncle Moishy, then the original artist who played UM, even if his first name is Moishy, would have no legal rights to use the UM name.
There’s OU certified imitation pork.
Is chicken meat? M’doraisa chicken is pareve.
“This.”

Farshteit zich that we have to choose the one that is closer to our ideals, from the poor choices we’re offered.
That would be conservatives and the Republican Party, the vast majority of the time.
Why is being tall a positive attribute for a man?
I think you should change your name to Anav.
YY, what about them? Their alternative to pleading guilty is to take their case to court and face a near certain guilty verdict regardless of their innocence. Thus making pleading guilty the lesser miscarriage of justice.
GHD: Donald Trump has been an Oheiv Yisroel long before he entered politics, long before his daughter married a Yid and purports to bring up his grandchildren as Yidden; and he remains so today. His father Fred was an Oheiv Yisroel too, who aside from building homes for frum Yidden, also donated from his own pocket to build shuls.
Takes2, non-American judicial system are even more corrupt.
Are ready made lights in plastic cups more dangerous than oil put in a plastic glass manually?
It was the Democrat Party that tried to stop blacks from voting, disenfranchising blacks, creating Jim Crow in the South.
The Republican Party, which never hurt Jews, is the party that fought hard to enfranchise blacks and strongly fought against the Democrat Party politicians who tried to stop blacks from voting.
Just as the Democrats considered the blacks to be their slaves in the South, the Democrats today consider themselves owners of the blacks and their vote.
Serving time in jail is no indication of actual guilt. It just means America’s corrupt judicial system jailed someone.
Regarding the Reform and Conservatives, the number of non-Jewish/gentile members of Reform and Conservative is much more than people realize. We’re talking now over 200 years of fake converts. And those fake converts children, grandchildren, great-children, etc. In addition were getting close to 75 years of paternal descent being counted as Jewish, where the mother was gentile. And those paternal descents children and grandchildren.
Kiruv professionals today have a significant problem figuring out whether a Reform or Conservative “Jew” who potentially may wish to become frum is even Jewish. Many are gentiles who consider themselves Jewish (Reform or Conservative) and have no idea that they are, in fact, a goy.
GHD: Reform and Conservative isn’t Judaism, and their clergymen aren’t rabbis.
It is another Rackman type so-called “beit din”.
Rabbi Gordimer has been exposing their sham rulings (in Yated and elsewhere) for the past few years they’ve existed. Others, including from YU (Rabbi Hershel Schachter, R. Gil Student), have written against them as well.
Their two main “dayanim” are affiliated with Avi Weiss’ YCT and Yeshivat Maharat.
Just that 147 is usually our in-house calendar expert who seems to know all sorts of unusual dates/combinations as well as you know the Aleph Beis.
Using fire retardant trays is difficult?
Rav Moshe, when writing in Hebrew called Reform and Conservative clergymen “rabbis”, spelling out the English term in Hebrew letters in middle of his Hebrew Psak. This is, in fact, Rav Moshe mocking them. It is similar to putting quotation marks around the term “rabbi”. And he didn’t use the term for individual Reform and Conservative clergymen but rather only when discussing them as a group.
Like in his Psak saying it is assur to enter a Reform or Conservative house of worship sanctuary.
“And NOBODY has the right to tell women what they should wear”
Wrong. The Torah and Halacha tell women these mandatory Halachas what they may not wear. So does the Mechaber, a man, in Shulchan Aruch, as well as the men who wrote countless other Seforim HaKedoshim on these Jewish Laws.
Many members of the Reform and Conservative religions are not Jewish people. They either converted to one of those religions, were born into a line of maternal converts into those religions or were born to a Jewish father and non-Jewish mother or descendents from those type of families.
Ironically British Jewry is quickly reaching the point of their being a Chareidi/Orthodox majority.
The only cure to save Jews, the one and only one, is to be Orthodox.
ubiq, your comment lacks sense. None of the points you made support the idea to vote liberal/Democrat. The liberals/Democrats do not support illegalizing interest or even limiting competition like the Torah tells us to. In fact, using your own criteria you should definitely support Republicans since they are more in favor of not having strong anti-trust laws/enforcement whereas the Democrats support tougher anti-trust laws and breaking up or cracking down on companies that control too much of the market.
Anyways, I’m sure you noticed that Reform, Conservative and OO “rabbis” are strongly in favor of liberals/Democrats whereas Orthodox Rabbis are exactly the opposite, favoring conservatives/Republicans. Apparently you are throwing your lot with the R/C/OO.
No, Uncle Yossi.
If anyone has one for sale, I’d be interested in purchasing.
It goes without saying I’m following the Torah model, not the old American one. Al pi Halacha, as established by the Mechaber in Shulchan Aruch, we can purchase them under the local secular laws, but we still have to treat them today as the Torah tells us to.
What’s so inherently bad for kids if they have two Uncle Moishy’s? Nothing that I can fathom.
“So why S&D had to come out with a new Uncle Moishy instead is calling him something else like Fred is beyond me. Unless the guy’s real name is Moshe, in which case they get a pass.”
Uncle Fred or Uncle Chaim doesn’t have the goodwill and name recognition by kids and their parents that the name Uncle Moishy has.
Whatever the artist’s real first name is, is not that important. He can choose to use a pen name or trade name when acting, that’s different than his personal name. Many do exactly that with great success.
A businessman who does business even under his full personal name can sell the rights to the name or business and then he no longer has the right to sell that service under his name. If Charles Schwab sells his brokerage firm, he cannot start a new brokerage firm under his name — since the new owners of Charles Schwab have the rights to the name and trademark.
These are all generic points; I have no idea what happened with the ownership or rights to the Uncle Moishy name and business. (And it is a business and trademark.)
“How can u trade mark an “uncle moishy”
“Practically every family has at least one uncle moishy.
Are you saying my uncle moishy can not have his own concert with out infringing on a copywrite?”How can someone trademark “Martha Stewart”? Mrs. Stewart certainly isn’t the only Martha Stewart out there. Do you think the other Martha Stewart’s can publish cookbooks, magazines and a line of clothing under her name?
adocs, are you the new 147?
CA, why do you have more trouble making conversation sitting down at a table in a lounge than sitting down at a picnic table?
Those who give Chanukah presents have the associated minhag of also singing Chanukah carols.
RY23, the Jewish way is that the girl is supposed to serve her husband after marriage.
Full.
Btw, does everyone remember Uncle Yossi and his storytelling?
Farshteit zich that my previous comment was speaking in broad terms rather than individually to TM. That said, TM self-identifies as MO/DL, and as mentioned MO/DL in the broad sense is the left-wing flank of frum Judaism (which is the only Judaism.) This, of course, discounts OO since a) OO self-identifies as MO and more importantly b) the rest of Orthodoxy (including the rest of MO) considers OO to be non-Orthodox/non-frum, much in the same way Reform “Judaism” is not considered to be Judaism by Orthodoxy and J4J is not considered to be Jews or Judaism by all Jews, despite both of them claiming the mantle of the name Judaism.
Now within MO you have the so-called LWMO and the RWMO. But LWMO is virtually synonymous with OO, which the description in the previous paragraph applies to. That all being said, broadly speaking MO/DL is as far left you can go within Judaism and still be said to be frum. Within MO, individually of course, there are certainly some more to the left and others less to the left.
Totally speculating, but this might be Uncle Moshe’s way of introducing a successor before his retirement. By pretending there’s a “competing” Uncle Moshe (which can’t be the case due to trademark law), thus stirring up interest in the whole Uncle Moshe business, while at the same time getting people acquainted with next generation of UM.
CTL, your response didn’t address MTAB’s point about many people being unable to afford what you advocate they do.
Must be a marketing gimmick.
takah: That’s a oft-heard response from MO/DL. The only way to define MO/DL as “centrist” (a common self-definition), is to include the non-frum in their consideration of “left/liberal”. Because within the frum spectrum MO/DL are the left-wing flank. Any further left is outside the frum world.
The Torah supports the existence of slavery.
CS: Are you in Eretz Yisroel?
Takes2, you think Yoshka was in gehenom during the times of the Gemorah but got an early release/get out of jail free card between the time of the Gemorah and now?
Why especially Syag but not me?
Boys, please read:
Some Beis Hachaims have separate sections for kevarim of men and kevarim of women.
If a man is put in cherem, I believe the Halacha is that it applies to his wife as well. This point might be tangentially related to some of your questions.
Someone mentioned R. Rephoel Szmerla four years ago on this thread; on the first page.
Does the Lev Aryeh guy still do funny music videos around Purim time?
The Chofetz Chaim always was prepared with a package of clothing and other necessities, that he took with him wherever he went, so when Moshiach suddenly came and he needed to go to Eretz Yisroel he immediately had all he needed to go with Moshiach.
lot112: Not yet. Should I report when I reach the airport?
