President Obama needs your help decorating the Oval Office, or at least IKEA think so. Restyle, redecorate, add a dog or a few secret service agents to your Oval Office redesign at www.embracechange09.com.
My design incorporates two dogs -- note how Henry is watching under the desk and Lola is watching for trespassers, a typical afternoon -- and an art easel. I would need more stuff on the tables like magazines and stickers, but all in all I'm digging it.
I sort of stumbled in to the wide world of patent drafting and illustrating. I think I'll stay for a while, I like it over here. I find the patent illustrations fun and cathartic. Every page of every case is different and has to be fit in to very specific parameters set by the Patent and Trademark Office. The USPTO requires that the drawings be only black and white and have reference numbers that correlate with the written text of the patent. If the drawings are not suitable the patent office may reject the entire patent. All those boundaries help keep me in line! (pun intended!)
