...using commercial kitchens eventually fell apart before she entered into her current agreement with Louise's Bakery in Baltimore. But probably her biggest mistake was not to have an attorney from the get-go. Allen had no idea that the name she attempted to trademark for her business--Chocolate Goddess Brownies & Sweets, a paean to the persona Allen adopts to give chocolate demonstrations--was already taken. Now she has an attorney who has helped her apply to use the name Silver Goddess Brownies & Sweets to operate her business, launched a month ago, in Maryland...

But ISMAIL MERCHANT'S casting of Turner as a Hindu deity in his upcoming film The Goddess has outraged some British Hindus, who plan to picket the movie.
