| Indication of Colors claimed | The color(s) blue and gold is/are claimed as a feature of the mark. |
| Description of Mark | The mark consists of two colors, one color is a blue, and the second color is gold. The color blue appears in the wording "BE FIRST TO KNOW"; and the color gold appears in the horizontal straight lines underlining the words "BE" and "TO". The word "BE", in all capital letters has a stretched appearance and sits above a thin, gold, horizontal line. The distance between the baseline of the word "BE" to the gold line is visually the same width as the height of the bottom horizontal finger that is the third bar that make up the letter "E". The gold line extends from the left most edge of the letter "B" to the right most edge of the letter "E". Below this gold line are the words "FIRST to KNOW" which are read from left to right. The top of the words "FIRST" and "KNOW" are visually the same distance away from the line as the word "BE" is from the line. The words "FIRST" and "KNOW" are visually 50 percent smaller in height than the word "BE", and has a condensed appearance. The word "FIRST" is all capitals. The word "to", which sits between the words "FIRST" and "KNOW", is all lower case and is visually 50 percent smaller than the words "FIRST" and "KNOW". The word "to" has an horizontally-oriented gold, round-edged thick line under it that extends just short of the full width of the word "to". The height of the line is visually the same width as the letter "t" (not including the cross bar) in the word "to", and sits visually about the same distance away, so that it does not touch the word "to". The word "to" and its underlining gold line visually float in height; not quite reaching the top nor the baseline of the height of the letters in the words "FIRST" and "KNOW". The word "KNOW", which is to the right of the word "to" is all capitals. |
