    and then there's exemptions that can allow you to do stuff even if you arent the trademark holder... for example I have registered lodon2012olympics.com, which I believe I can legitimately use for a news site about stuff related to the 2012 olympics (because the laws enacted to add protection (over and above the usual trademark law) to the Olympics marks include exemptions for editorial use).
