Bruce: I'm Stuart Ho of Honolulu. I was a platoon leader in the 77th, arriving fresh out of Eustis around April 1958, until I was transferred in July to the 583rd Lt Trk Co in Bussac, there to be shipped to Lebanon with Task Force 201. At the time the 77th was based at Laleu Caserne near La Pallice, under the command of Capt. Vaughn G. Gilbert. It was part of the 106th Trans Bn at Croix Chapeau. When I returned from Lebanon in August I was again transferred to Orleans to become adjutant of the 28th Trans Bn, newly arrived from Mannheim.(The army was really short of officers in those days, and I did all this as a second lieutenant.)I am working on the History of the 77th Transportation Company. It was located in Bordeaux
and Bussac from 1950-1955. In 1955 it moved to Rochefort, outside of La Rochelle.
I am looking for any information about it while it was in Bordeaux/Bussac, and any pictures.

I was based in La Rochelle with the 77th Trans Co (Lt Trk), and I recall the name Captieux. If it was in the Basec area, i.e., southwestern France, then you might try the U.S. Consulate in Bordeaux. Stuart Ho

David: I was S-1 of the 28th Trans Bn between late 1958 and 1960. I was only a 2LT, but the army was short-handed in those days. Help me out with an answer: I can't remember where the 28th headquarters building was. I don't think it was at Maison Fort or at Harbord Barracks, but somewhere in between. Am I right? Stuart Ho
#2392 Nov 27, 2012
Hi David. I am Charles. I was stationed at Mason Fort in the 76 Transportation Co., S&P. From 1958-1960. My last CO was Capt Kostner.@ years late, but glad to see a posting from someone who was there.

My father was in the Army and was stationed in Toul in the mid 60s. After waiting for housing 11 months we finally got a house in an American housing area near Nancy. I attended 3rd grade in Jean de Arc hospital/school. I only lived in this housing area for 4 months before my father got orders to go to Germany, part of de Gaulles pull out of NATO. About the only thing I remember is that it was on a hill near Nancy, the bus from Nancy went through a small village to get to the it and that there was not much to the housing area except the dependent housing. We lived there in the winter time and we played in the snow and the house was cold. I also remember going to school which seemed like quite a distance and seeing Yankee go home signs. With both parent dead, I have wondered for years what the name of this housing area was. I know it was not Regina Village as all of the houses were one level. There were woods behind our house and you could explore in the woods and find relics from WWII .I have tried to google earth it to find it with no luck. If anyone has any knowledge of what this housing area was called please email [email protected]
#2396 Dec 2, 2012
Denise,I sent you an email.My story is almost a mirror image of yours.What years were you guys there?
#2397 Dec 2, 2012
I think the name of the villiage where you lived was called Toulair housing. We were there in 1964-66 at Toul Rosieres AB. There is a good website you amy be interested in.

Chère Martine,
Avez-vous des nouvelles pour moi. Ma question portait sur le camp d'Hennebont et le staff sergeant Ralph Miller. Merci de votre réponse.
bien à vous - Bruno jaffré
#2400 Dec 6, 2012
i was there oct. 1960-feb. 1963 i was in the 1st plattoon 581st engr. we were attached to the 574th for rations and training. i knew some of the guys in the 574th. you can e-mail me at [email protected]
#2401 Dec 6, 2012
I was based in Rochefort as a wheeled vehicle mechanic (1952) with the 460 transport company...a DUCW outfit.
However, two of us volunteered to take over a crash boat on the shore of Bassens. The other fellow was the captain of the "boat," and I was the diesel engineer for it. First time I handled a diesel.
There was no camp, just a tent for the few of us. And as I recall, there was a barber shop and a bar right next to us....nothing else. At night and time off we would take the bus into Bordeaux.
Otherwise, aside from being a mechanic, I volunteered to drive a bus bewtween Rocheforte and La Rochelle (A German sub pen.) If you saw the movie: DAS BOOT, you will see where the German submarines were "parked." The roofs of the pen were so thick that allied bombs could not penetrate them.
At Bassens, the freighters from all over the world would feed us and permit us to take showers aboard ship.
I preferred Bordeaux over Paris....but, then, it was the peace-time army (if you were not in Korea.)
I belive that the other fellow's name was ....Carlson.

Charles: I'm also 77, and was adjutant of the 28th Trans Bn between the fall of 1958, when the HHD came down from Mannheim, until my discharge in 1960. Do you recall where the battalion HQ building was? My memory is bad, but I seem to recall that it wasn't at Maison Fort, but neither was it at Harbord Barracks. Perhaps somewhere in between. Capt. Kostner's name sounds familiar. In my time, I remember Capt. Burns Perfect had one TC company at Maison Fort, and there was a Capt. Carr who had the other company, but Carr may have transferred out. I recall the first battalion commander when the 28th moved to Orleans was LTC Dan K. Dukes, Jr., who had been on the 37th THTC staff, and then went to Beirut with TF 201 in July 1958. I now live in Honolulu. Stuart Ho

Prostate massage videos (male G-spot) are a good way of learning how to proceed from prostate massage to orgasm.
There are not many good prostate massage videos around. It is therefore highly recommended to follow self teaching books on the subject.
It may take a while to get used to this sexual or medical massage with health benefits. At first it might feel unpleasant. There are two ways of doing it:
First, let's have a little anatomy. Prostate gland is located just behind the bladder and it is a size of a chestnut. When healthy, it is round and though sensitive to touch it feels pleasant and sexually stimulating.
Normally men don't realize its presence and importance till some health problems will occur.
The best prevention is to refrain from smoking, be more involved in sports and most important – to have regular sex.
The best of all massages is simply called 'sex'.
To massage prostate one may use hand or massage devices made for this purpose.
In both cases a generous amount of lubricant needs to be applied.
Access is through anal entry, towards the front of the person.
As prevention it is sufficient to have prostate massage once to two times a month.
Massage services
Those who are reluctant to do it by themselves and they don't have a willing partner to it for them may use the services providing this sort of massage. They are usually associated with Tantric Massage. You may look them up in the area you live. To give you an idea about costs here are some examples:
One and half hour of Tantric massage including prostate massage in Singapore costs about
One and half hour in Melbourne and Sydney, Australia will cost about AUS $ 285-345.
And in London, one and half hours with Tantric massage will cost you £ 220
When is it advisable to visit your doctor?
Prostate Devices and where to find them?
These mostly took up the shape of the finger and they are slightly curved for better access. It is necessary to use them carefully in a slight circular motion (avoiding thrust similar to sexual penetration).
It is advisable to use condoms for safety and also cleanliness.
(When fingers are used latex gloves provide protection from sharp nails as well)
Various sex shops sell endless supplies of 'anal toys'.
It is easier to shop online especially when one is not comfortable confronting the sales person while making a purchase.
Some links for various countries are included below
Penis Enlargement Bible or Penis Enlargement Guide.
Both are cost effective ways to enlarge (or straighten) your penis no matter who says what. It requires commitment, though.
What to expect
Not every male will reach an orgasm. It might be even uncomfortable especially at the beginning.
However, orgasm achieved this way is much stronger similar to one females have from G-spot stimulation.
It is a great way to have it with Tantric massage.

Read the Last Message You Received
A resource for all wireless users on the dangers of texting while driving.
Take out your wireless device. Read the last text message you received out loud. Would reading or responding to that text message from behind the wheel of a moving vehicle be worth the risk of getting into a car accident or worse? Chances are, the text message could wait.
In today's 24/7/365 world, staying connected is no longer an option. It's a necessity. With a tenfold increase in text messaging over the last three years according to CTIA -- The Wireless Association, there is no question that texting is increasingly becoming the way many communicate today. And, for many, the allure to quickly read and respond -- even from behind the wheel of a moving vehicle -- can be tempting. But texting and driving is dangerous.
Our goal is to educate all wireless users, but especially teen drivers, that there is a smart way to text.
Our message is simple, yet vital: When it comes to texting and driving, it can wait.

Frayed Knights 2 - Small Steps Forward
We missed the latest blog from Jay last week on the Frayed Knights 2 development, so here it is. In this blog he talks about how his workload prevents him from making major steps forward.
So Jay's still working a 40 hour/week day job? Unfortunate.
For most of the time since FK1 was released, it's been closer to a 60-hour / week job.
I really wish I could even make minimum wage making Frayed Knights, but it hasn't happened yet.
However, things have settled down a little bit with the Day Job right now, and I've had people coming to me the last few days offering to help (even on a budget that's still almost as much of a shoestring as last time), so I'm really, really excited. Actually, the last few days I've been spending a lot of my time trying to coordinate these efforts.
So it feels like the worst is over, at least until beta test… :)
Hey Jay, I bought the first when it first came out but haven't had time to play it so much. If I lost the program who can I contact to get it again?
I always support you indie guys, and I like the work you did here.
Email me if the download link no longer works for you. I'll be happy to set you up with a new link.
Jay - was there ever a patch for FK1? You mentioned one back in October so I put it on pause and played Skyrim for the time being.
Yup, there was an update after the initial release. Current version is 1.04.
I'll certainly be available for advanced beta testing and a review like last time once you're ready. This game is at the top of my list I so enjoyed the original.
I hope the sequel is 10x better.
(I wouldn't mind it selling 10x more, too….)
Corwin you suck up;)

text: XGEVA has been studied in over 6,000 patients with cancer. In clinical trials, XGEVA demonstrated a clinically meaningful improvement compared to the previous standard of care in preventing bone complications. XGEVA is also being investigated for the potential use to delay the onset of bone metastasis and disease-free survival in the adjuvant treatment of breast cancer.XGEVA Important Safety InformationXGEVA can cause severe hypocalcemia. Correct pre-existing hypocalcemia prior to XGEVA treatment. Monitor calcium levels and administer calcium, magnesium and vitamin D as necessary. Advise patients to contact a healthcare professional for symptoms of hypocalcemia. Osteonecrosis of the jaw (ONJ) can occur in patients receiving XGEVA. Patients who are suspected of having or who develop ONJ while on XGEVA should receive care by a dentist or an oral surgeon. In these patients, extensive dental surgery to treat ONJ may exacerbate the condition. The most common adverse reactions in patients receiving XGEVA were fatigue/asthenia, hypophosphatemia and nausea. The most common serious adverse reaction in patients receiving XGEVA was dyspnea. The most common adverse reactions resulting in discontinuation of XGEVA were osteonecrosis and hypocalcemia. Please visit www.amgen.com or www.xgeva.com for full U.S. prescribing information. XGEVA Regulatory StatusXGEVA has been approved in the U.S., Canada, the European Union (EU), Australia, Russia, Argentina, Switzerland, and Israel for the prevention of SREs in patients with bone metastases from solid tumors. XGEVA is not approved to prevent SREs in patients with multiple myeloma. XGEVA has been approved in Mexico for the prevention of skeletal related events (pathological fracture, radiation to bone, spinal cord compression or surgery to bone) in patients with advanced malignancies involving bone. In Japan, Amgen is working with its licensing partner, Daiichi Sankyo Company, Limited, and denosumab is approved as RANMARK® for treatment for bone complications stemming from multiple myeloma and bone metastases from solid tumors. Amgen has also submitted marketing applications for XGEVA in South Africa, Gulf Cooperation Council countries, Morocco and Egypt. In addition, Amgen and GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) have a collaboration agreement for the commercialization of XGEVA in a number of countries where Amgen does not currently have a commercial presence. In these countries, marketing applications are filed by GSK. About AmgenAmgen discovers, develops, manufactures and delivers innovative human therapeutics.

No forward-looking statement can be guaranteed and actual results may differ materially from those we project. Discovery or identification of new product candidates or development of new indications for existing products cannot be guaranteed and movement from concept to product is uncertain; consequently, there can be no guarantee that any particular product candidate or development of a new indication for an existing product will be successful and become a commercial product. Further, preclinical results do not guarantee safe and effective performance of product candidates in humans. The complexity of the human body cannot be perfectly, or sometimes, even adequately modeled by computer or cell culture systems or animal models. The length of time that it takes for us to complete clinical trials and obtain regulatory approval for product marketing has in the past varied and we expect similar variability in the future. We develop product candidates internally and through licensing collaborations, partnerships and joint ventures. Product candidates that are derived from relationships may be subject to disputes between the parties or may prove to be not as effective or as safe as we may have believed at the time of entering into such relationship. Also, we or others could identify safety, side effects or manufacturing problems with our products after they are on the market. Our business may be impacted by government investigations, litigation and products liability claims. We depend on third parties for a significant portion of our manufacturing capacity for the supply of certain of our current and future products and limits on supply may constrain sales of certain of our current products and product candidate development.

Today, United States President Barack Obama and his administration will bring the nation, to reflect upon the Presidential Executive Order that began a new quest for people of African ancestry to move toward equity and equal opportunity.
When the news is received, there will be prayers, shouts and songs of joy as people will fall to their knees and thank the force and power they worship as God on Earth.
It's been 150 years since that first Freedom's Eve and most of the world was never taught the authentic history of the African in America.
A small light in Stockton, California continues to burn sharing our tradition that still brings us together at this time every year to celebrate "how we got our divine humanity in America."
Imani, the final night of Kwanzaa, celebrates Faith, and many of us recall well our African ancestors from our "Garden of Eden." Together, we will restore the traditions of our sacred ancestors who "payed the price" through blood, sweat and tears, an inheritance in America beyond compare.

Well where do I start? well I suppose I've brought my children up with gentle disipline, & 2 share and 2 be as one [ I have 5 ], quite succesfully through hard times I think.but Ive hit a problem my 2nd eldest daughter [19] who has a serious boyfriend [1.5yrs] and has been working for the same amount of time, who used to share everything with her younger sister [18] shes in college, now works and when shes not working shes with her boyfriend or tired, now has hit a big problem with her 18yr old sister about yes youve guessed it the ''BEDROOM'' and borrowing clothes, for years ive stepped back and if they want a messy room thats up to them, if you wanna throw your clothes around the room thats up to you, thinking they would of their own accord want to change, but now big sis has all nice clothes and shes starting not to want to share, and has classed her sister as a theif - and her boyfriend [20yrs]much to my discust has started to join in, and the other day said look what your sister 'STOLE' from you caught red handed wearing a top of yours [picture on fb].
Well it all came to a head last week when this happened, my daughter [19] going into a rage about her sister borrowing without asking, and the state of the room, I tried to approach this situation calmly for about 2hrs - saying yes i agree she should ask first etc, I'll help you do the room up - paint [something ive already suggested]. I said she should tell her sister how she feels and what the bounderies are for borrowing clothes, and maybe she should spend a bit more time with her sister, like she used to pre-boyfriend, and how I would love to have a sister blah d blah, but no she kept swearing shouting and getting angry at me, i said i didnt take the top, in which she replied your the parent get strickter - well - interesting I said strickter 'No' - WHY? - ''strict at what your convienience''? - ''I know alot of mothers who wouldnt have their boyfriend stay almost every night - strict - strict how?'' - she was saying that her younger sister uses their dad - for phone cred and scratch cards and things i dont know about [ his been a drunk fool who hasnt helped in any way at all with his 4 children - long story. So I as a mother didnt like this slagging off match and told the eldest one I love you both and neither of you are perfect I dont appreciate you talking like this [with her boyfriend joining in every now and again]. Anyway this boiled into me really losing the plot and clipping my daughter round the ear [as my dad wouldve called it ] [I cannot remember a time when ive ever hit her] her boyfriend who ive welcomed into my home and been civil for 1.5 years calls the police on me in my own home - 4ft behind me - and well I told them both to leave and told him not to darken my door again - advice please. My children have grown up to be polite well mannered hard working people - that don't swear or shout at me and visa versa. And Im now feeling like i've failed / done something wrong - guilt a heavy burden all the way through being a parent 'oh I forgot the crisps to a clip round the ear :(.

They are both adults. I would stay out of it if I were you. If they haven't learned how to share, it's about time they figured it out now.
FWIW, don't blame yourself, it sounds like this boyfriend is the catalyst instigating the problems and they need to work it out, just the two of them.

Little Boots, Bestival 2009
As she leaves the stage behind the wheel of her toy car, you're left wondering if anyone coming up will be able to match what she just did on stage.Read more on Little Boots Listen to Little Boots on Spotify
As Lady Penelope drives onto the stage in a comically under-sized children's car, followed by her Thunderbird friends, you begin to feel sorry for those in the audience who are swamped in a Hunter S. Thompson haze. For those in a more sober state of mind, it marks the idiosyncratic entrance of Little Boots, the reigning queen of the British electro-pop crop. Creating her own tremors with the energetic electric beats and thunderous bass, she starts her set with 'Earthquake', an album track from her debut 'Hands'. Each line ripples through the audience, raising their spirits under the heat of the afternoon sun; a proudly euphoric pop song with one of the most catchy and infectious choruses you're ever likely to find. Watching Little Boots live, if you're apt to buy into the buzz about the current movement, proves unequivocally why she outmatches her 'competitors'. She has a real affinity with music, creating curiously distinctive sounds with her tenori-on and the instruments around her.
When she starts the first verse of 'Mathematics', her lyrically playful side is shown in all its glory. Victoria Hesketh is completely immersed in the song, an eccentric allusion to Plath's 'Love Is A Parallax'. Though her tongue is placed firmly in her cheek with "cos your X is equal to my Y", the number works on a number of different levels and demonstrates her talent for making layered, cerebral pop music. The set is not without its weak points, however. 'Symmetry' is understandably performed solo here at Bestival, without Philip Oakey's complementary baritone. In doing this song alone, we're given a performance that feels absent of something crucial. What makes 'Symmetry' a storming track is the texture of the two voices together as a cross-generational duet. It is a bridge across time, marrying the synthpop sophistication of the 80s together with the electro movement of the naughties. While she dedicated this one to the spacemen and women in the audience, she could have chosen a more suitable serenade for the travellers.
A familiar, darkly electronic introduction elicits a roar from the audience. This summer's most resilient single release, 'Remedy' has the crowd bouncing and yelling the lyrics back to her. To close her set, she plays 'Stuck On Repeat', which maintains the audience's enthusiasm. The repetitive lyrics have families and friends dancing together in one of the greatest, most vigorous and lively moments of Bestival. As she leaves the stage behind the wheel of her toy car, you're left wondering if anyone coming up will be able to match what she just did on stage. For someone with supposedly little boots, Hesketh is a Titan on the stage.

Mr McLoughlin was forced last week to scrap the bidding competition for the London to Scotland line due to Department for Transport (DfT) errors in the bidding process.
The department had awarded a new 13-year West Coast franchise not to incumbent company Virgin Trains but to rival transport company FirstGroup. Mr McLoughlin laid the blame for the problems "fairly and squarely" with the department and three DfT officials have been suspended.
On Monday, House of Commons Transport Committee chairman Louise Ellman MP said she had written to Mr McLoughlin raising a number of questions about the cancellation of the competition. Mr McLoughlin is due to appear before the committee on October 31.
Mrs Ellman said: "The Department for Transport has many serious questions to answer about what went wrong with the West Coast Main Line franchise competition and the wider ramifications for the other complex contractual negotiations it is involved in, such as the Thameslink rolling stock procurement. I have written to the Secretary of State to find out more about the reviews he has ordered, the staff who have been suspended and the reporting lines to ministers ahead of the hearing we will hold on October 31."
The DfT decision on the West Coast came when Justine Greening was Transport Secretary. After the award she defended the decision, as did Mr McLoughlin when he took over the transport brief from her last month. Mr McLoughlin also backed the decision when he appeared before Mrs Ellman's committee last month.
Virgin has run the West Coast line since 1997, more than doubling annual passenger numbers and introducing the high-speed tilting Pendolino trains. A shocked Virgin boss, Sir Richard Branson, called the franchise bidding process "flawed" and "insane" when the decision was made to award the new franchise to FirstGroup, which had been due to take over the line from December 9.
Sir Richard complained directly to Prime Minister David Cameron and also instigated a legal challenge to the franchise ruling.
It was in the course of preparing the Government's case against the court challenge that problems with the way the bids were handled came to light. The Government has now dropped its opposition to Virgin's court action.
The Government now has to decide whether to allow Virgin to carry on operating the line after the December 9 date or to run it under the DfT as is the case at the moment with the other main London to Scotland line - East Coast.

Jennifer and Kevin's Wedding
"Holly from toms river in the mall was horrible. Never use her again"
Collegeville Wedding In May
"Our travel agent was great, she worked to get us the best price and made changes when needed. However, the hotel in Aruba that we went to (Tamarijn/Divi All Inclusive) left a lot to be desired. We changed rooms 3 times, one of our rooms actually flooded, and the management could care less. We got a bottle of wine as compensation for the inconvenience, mind you, we were at an ALL INCLUSIVE resort so we could have all the wine we wanted. I would book through Liz Sorkin again though!"

What People are Saying
"Of all the civil society organizations seeking to promote financial stability, Dennis Kelleher's Better Markets stands out."
- Simon Johnson, New York Times columnist
"Wall Street keeps pounding Washington. Fighting any attempt to rein in the too big to fail banks. Who's fighting back? Better Markets."
- Corporate Crime Reporter
"They are the one organization on the line making the pro-reform points that have to be made in order for the regulators to say 'We passed this regulation because we know this.'"
- Former Senator Ted Kaufman
"It's good to get some balance into the mix. My mom and your mom don't usually have somebody [like Better Markets]"
- Gary Gensler, Former CFTC Chairman
"A point made forcefully by Dennis Kelleher; his blog at Better Markets is a must-read for anyone who cares about financial regulatory reforms."
- The New York Times (Read More)
"Better Markets encourages a free flow of reform-minded ideals by bringing transparency and some small counterweight to the lobbying goliath of Wall Street."
- Former Special Inspector General, TARP
"Dennis Kelleher and his team at Better Markets have consistently pushed for financial reform that will help protect the U.S. economy from another financial crash. They are strong partners in the fight to level the playing field for middle class families, and have been persistent fighters for the American people, their jobs, savings and retirements."
- Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.)
"On the front-lines of this effort is Better Markets, a relatively new advocacy group pushing to ensure new regulations are as strong as possible."
- Braking the Banks (Read More)
Under the group's president, Dennis Kelleher, Betters Markets has become one of the most outspoken proponents of tougher financial regulation.
- New York Times (Read More)
"Kelleher, a former attorney at Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom, has become well-known for his critique of both Wall Street banks and regulators who he has often accused of failing to hold the banks accountable for wrongdoing."
- Reuters (Read More)
"It's more important than ever that consumers and taxpayers have strong advocates like Dennis and Better Markets to stand up for ordinary Americans."

Connecting to Oracle via tnsnames.ora
I need to be able to connect to an Oracle database (11g) from Mathematica 7.0.1, I assume using JDBC is the way to go.
My method of connection to the Oracle database is via a tnsnames.ora file.
When searching for related information, I have found:
"As of the 10.2.x JDBC driver we now allow you to connect to your database using a tnsnames.ora entry from JDBC THIN. Previously this was not possible without fully qualifying the description alias. To do this in 10.2.x JDBC driver you can do it one of 2 ways.
Option 1:
Pass a system property as follows at the command line
Option 2:
How can I do either of these from within Mathematica (or does anyone have any other option)?
Thanks in advance

Kevin McHale of 'Glee' Spreads Awareness for The Trevor Project
Kevin McHale helps kids face tough teenage problems week after week as his character Artie on 'Glee.' Now, the 23-year-old entertainer has joined hands with The Trevor Project's new 'Talk to Me' campaign to bring his assistance off the small screen. The "campaign for conversation" is pushing outward as part of the National Suicide Prevention Week, which runs September 4-10.
"Talk to me," McHale insists in a new PSA. "It's what you say to someone to let them know you're there. Talk to me. Just three simple words, but saying them out loud could help save a life."
The Trevor Project acts as a safe haven — a means of suicide prevention for gay and transgendered young people who are struggling to find their place in society. With the help of McHale and shows like 'Glee,' The Trevor Project is hopeful that youths will find someone to talk to about their pain, rather than act on it in an irreversible way.
McHale isn't the first 'Glee' face to hop on board with TTP, which boasts the slogan "saving young lives." Chris Colfer, who is gay on the show and in real life, Darren Criss and McKinley High bully Max Adler (Karofsky) have all been involved with the 'It Gets Better' campaign.
If you know someone who may be considering suicide, or if you yourself just need somebody to talk to, visit TrevorTalktoMe.org or call 1-866-488-7386.

The descent into women letting themselves go is a slow, and often unconscious decision made by women over the course of many years. I know this because it happened to me!
One morning, a few years ago, I woke up, got out of bed, and took a good hard look at myself.
It was like a different person was staring right back at me.
I had gained over 20 pounds, my hair hadn't been styled in months, and I couldn't even remember the last time I had bothered to put on any makeup.
I had become a walking stereotype of a woman who had let herself go.
I have been interested in fashion since I was old enough to understand what playing dress-up was. I was always putting outfits together and making dresses for my Barbies and getting into my mother's makeup. I NEVER thought I would ever stop wearing makeup or gain weight or swap tennis shoes for my beloved heels.
But then I had a baby. And then I had another baby. And then I gained 20+ pounds. And then I started a company and 'didn't' have time. And ever so slowly I lost my way.
I am sure you have all heard the story of a frog that jumps into a boiling pot of water and then jumps out because the water is too hot, but is then placed in a pot of cold water with the burner on low and the frog doesn't notice the subtle temperature changes and ends up boiling to death.
Well that my friends is how you end up letting yourself go.
It isn't one drastic step where one day you are glamorous and amazing and the next day you are in tattered leggings and an old high school sweatshirt. No, the decent comes from tiny little decisions made each and every day.
It started when I got pregnant with my firstborn. My body changed drastically after I had him and it took me forever to figure out how to stylishly dress my new, softer, curvier shape. As soon as I thought I had it all figured out, I got pregnant with my second son and my body changed again.
Now I had two children under the age of three. What was the point in dressing up? I spent my days at the park getting dirty, not traipsing down a fashion runway. Who cared if I put on makeup, certainly not my kids! Honestly the only thing that I thought of when deciding what to wear was how upset I would be if it got stained from spit up or from grass stains.
But after a few years, the boys grew up. Now they were older and even though we still went to the park, I could relax on the benches and let them play. My life had changed, but not my wardrobe. It was like I had forgotten how to dress. It seemed as if I had let my love for fashion disappear along with my flat belly and nights out on the town.
But then I saw myself in the mirror and for the first time in years I realized it was time to find myself again. I had let myself become something that I didn't like, and I needed to do something about it.
So I decided to loose the extra 20 pounds that I had gained. It took me 7 months, but I did it. I did it because every day I made the choice to work out, and eat less.
And it sucked.
You see, it is easy to choose to lay on the couch and watch tv, it is easy to choose to eat a bowl of ice cream, and it is easy to choose to drink a few glasses of wine every night. But it is hard to make the choice to eat less, and sweat, and get off the couch. So most people choose easy. But you know what? Easy is what lets ourselves go.
I have read a lot about Dita Von Teese. What I find most admirable about her is she makes the decision every day to put on makeup and a gorgeous dress. Have you seen the outfits she wears when she travels? They are stunning. But if you look closer, they are also just a more glamorous version of something comfortable- like a 1940's rayon dress, or a nice coat and purse. Her hair is often pulled back into a chic chignon- something that can be done in 2 minutes. Heck, just having nice nails is something to be cherished. All these things are choices made by Dita in order for her to feel good about herself. And you can make the same choices.
You can change the downward spiral at any time. All you have to do is choose to change. And this decision will be as if you suddenly realized you were swimming in a pot of boiling water! You can choose to work out and loose those pounds you gained. You can choose to buy a pretty new dress, even if you still feel fat and all you want to do is hide under the covers. You can choose to set your hair in curlers and wear lipstick. It all comes down to choices.
So every day I get up and choose to either go to the gym or not to go to the gym. But I know that whatever I choose, it will have consequences. If I choose to go to the gym I will feel better and look better. If I choose to take the day off then I might choose not to have a sweet later that day. So just as the downward spiral of schlump is based on little choices, so too is the ascent into becoming a glamorous housewife.
I started this blog with the intention of inspiring other women to turn their choices from the mundane to the glamorous. I wanted to show you ladies that if I can do it, anyone can do it. So go out there and choose to be glamorous.
If you feel like you need a bit more help in how to actually change, I wrote a book called WillPOWER: Become an expert at being AWESOME! In it I detail all of the steps I took to go from frump to fabulous and turn my life around.
I truly believe that the key to living the life of your dreams, which for me was becoming a glamorous housewife, meant growing and strengthening my willpower.

Posted By: jamesingramit seems the concern is future problems with airtightness at this junctionThe ground below a ground bearing slab is bound to contract when no longer exposed to rainfall. So a ground bearing slab is bound to settle to some extent & the DPM is liable to fail when this happens. By bearing the slab on the inner leaf you are guaranteeing that there is no relative movement between wall & floor & no undue pressure on the DPM. This seems like a more robust solution.
Posted By: jamesingram"what about bridging DPC " ?Don't think EPS is capable of wicking moisture in any direction, if not waterlogged, so to me, can't effectively bridge moisture from one side to the other, of a DPC. It's not blotting paper. Would Bldg Insp say, for instance, that a bit of wood can bridge a DPC?

Ok the patch works for me and I am a big sceptic! My daughter ordered some and said she had more energy and less cravings, so I tried one. I did not know that there was any claim of a mood elevator, but I noticed the first day that I was not depressed and was in a much better mood than I had been, and I have much more energy and eat about half the amount of food I was eating. I will order more! I have had no side effects. If it is worth the $50 to feel better and have more energy, give them a try.
I have had a very good experience so far with the pink patch, I had a problem with my delivery (it is more of a post office issue than a pink patch issue as I have had other deliveries not show up before in the area where I live) Well I thought I would try my luck anyway and let them know that my 6mths supply had not shown up, there was no questions asked they just sent me another supply of patches that were rec'd in good order! I was very impressed. One thing i have noticed the patch stinks so strong, the first set of patches I bought didn't smell at all, but this new set stink urggh hehe
Well I was considering trying the patch but I really have to speak with my doctor. To all those who scream that we need to get off our fat and exercise and eat less. The reason I have to ask my doctor is because I have hypothyroidism. That means that my body doesn't know how to turn fats into energy. If it works out I may tell my friend with Grave's (which means that her throid worked so badly that they had to iradiate it). I hope that some people can think next time they mock a large person. I have a strict exercise routine and an annoyingly strict diet plan. I can't eat some foods that are really good like spinach, broccoli, strawberries and peaches because it may cause a goiter. I hope that this can help aid my weightloss but if my doctor says no I have to look into other options. I am in hell everyday because no matter how I hard I work I have to deal with jerks trying to tear me down. So if people give you crap just tell them to shove it. They can only make you feel bad if you let them. If this is working for you Grats if not talk to your doctor they usually have a good idea of how to help. Good luck to all! I will keep y'all updated on the doc!
I love it ,this is not a spam ,You just have to read the terms and conditions when you made the order,I'm very satisfied with this product,at that moment I was unable to paid for the product and I decide to cancel, they return your money back if you decide to cancel the order .If a birth control patch work this one could work 2 believe or not it really work for me .
I tried the trial week read the print and cancelled so far so good. I did though experience a benefit during the trial I felt better had more energy so I bought the 4 month offer, while my energy level is high and feel generally well I wake early and feel great but have not lost any weight and I feel bloated but not all the time. Soon I come to the end of my 4 month session whether a �1 a day is worth it only time will tell
It looks okay, but to be honest you can pick up concoctions similar to this in capsule form in the health shop for a lot less.
idkkk: You can't target weight loss over a specific area, just soldier on and it will come away eventually xx
I used the trial and I immediately noticed a difference. I don't know if it was a typical placebo effect or if it was the patch actually working, but I felt motivated and stimulated; I had energy to exercise. After the trial was over, I felt the drop in energy and my weight stabilized; I didn't lose or gain any more weight. I didn't cancel and decided to let the patches come in the mail, and I've lost so far another 5 pounds for a total of 8 pounds in a little over a month! I'm very satisfied with this product, just wish it wasn't so pricey.
i havent started this yet but im thinking about it. i work out pretty regularly and i try to eat right but it seems like nothing helps the extra fat on my tummy area. my arms and legs are fine i dont want to lose weight on them just my midsection. any thoughts??
I am not one to take anytype of diet pill or magic bean to help me lose weight. However I did try this and while it didn't help me lose weight it did help raise my energy level and stabalize my period. Which are two things I care about more than my weight. So i love it.
I have used the pink patch for the 14 day free trial. It did work and i lost 7lbs although i was eating healthily and exercising.As soon as i stopped using the patch i gained all the weight back on and more .I was eating exactly the same and exercising as what i was doing when wearing the patch. So DON'T use it. As soon as you stop using it you will gain it all back.
Hi. I am a boy and I am wondering if it is safe to use it for the opposite sex. I will not specify my age but I am under 18 and I want to know if it is totally safe.
All of those who claim to have lost neing are probaly lying. If it makes you lose wieght that fast then its extremely dangerous
Must say some of the negative comments have got to me. i ordered the free trial yesterday and have just got off the phone to cancel. she confirmed my details and ensured me she couldnt cancel the free trial (which i already knew) but has cancelled my membership and everything else. I asked for her name and she refused to give it to me. also i asked for the managers name and she wouldnt give out anything. am just a bit worried now that it might be one of those where i have to cancel my credit card details as i know they have them on their system now. *fingers crossed its completely cancelled*
This shows it's a load of BOLLOCKS.
what a load of crap. Since using the pink patches for 3 weeks, aswell as healthy eating, I have managed to gain 8lbs, not really a good advertisement for 'the pink patch'. I wouldn't advise anyone to waste their money as I have.
i think this program totally depends on you body, age and expectations. i'm a stay home mom, my husband is a doctor and i have heard stories about these prouducts i would recomend that you only take them if you are extreemly over weight they are NOT FDA aproved and that is probally for a good reason they are not suitabe for anyone to be using. i have a medical degree and i had reasearched some of these prouducts when i was in college 2 years ago and many of the drugs going into these are experimental mixtures they may not show short term side effects but you should be careful in using the prouducts for more than a few months at a time. some of the chemicals in these prouducts show kidnee failure in other clinical studies published by the FDA. with any diet pills or patches you should do your research and get all the facts go to different websites and call your doctor talk to them or a nurse they can be very helpful. good luck and be careful!!!
I'm on day 3 of the Pink Patch trial now, and I have to say I've not noticed a great change in my moods, or appetite. I'm still craving sweet foods, like I usually do. However, I have noticed that once I've started eating, I do feel full a little earlier - this time last week, i could have easily eaten 4-8 chocolate eclairs, whereas I bought 2 yesterday, and only ate one (and struggled at that!) I've not weighed myself yet - but my work trousers are a bit looser ( though I've started working out recently too..) I'll let you know about the weight when I've weighed myself, and I'll try to keep you updated! :)
Hey Everyone--- Try the "Stop stuffing your face" diet. It really works. And exercise. That's all it takes. But seriously no "supplement" is going to work. Stop stuffing your face and eating crap and you will lose weight. Omg what a concept.

New part of the forum we could have
I see some people like to add photos that are custom made to this site. I was wondering if we could have a part of the forum that is like this but except people request a signature, banner, or avatar of a certain fighter or fighter and then someone willing to volunteer makes it gladly for them. They make it by size, colour, text, you know what I'm talking about. If you think this idea is a rip off for the people who will make these for others how about the people who volunteer to make these get lets say 500 points for making it for someone? And you also have to have at least 100 posts to request how about. Should we try it out? Who is willing to make these for others?
Hey, Don, to go off topic with this thread what is that little green box below everything on are user facts. Everybodies say 'distinguised roads' and mine says 'unknown quantity'. What is this?
Question is, how many guys here are graphic designers and willing to help out :dunno:
hmm I know a girl who is basicly, she dose computer animation and is an excellent artist.. not sure if she'll help.. I can always ask Though I know she would want to retain ownership of any images for her portfolio
though I know she will not cut down fight films but art work and such she might do if asked nicely

|Topic Review (Newest First)
He bluepen, the friend I first talked about is in Fort hood, I think he's in the First cav. Interesting coincidence.
Another thing some Americans lose sight of (ahhhem, particularly very LIBERAL Americans) is that no matter how you feel about George bush, our administration, the coming election or the war in general, WE MUST ALWAYS SUPPORT OUR TROOPS. Some people don't seem to get that through their heads, calling them hired killers and saying if we ran this country right, we wouldn't need a military. What a bunch of idealistic, pot-smoking, flaming leftist, bleeding-heart, nonsense-blathering liberal morons. No matter if you're in war or not military is a tough job that doesn't pay a lot. Nobody goes into the military hoping they're going to have to fight. They go in because they're WILLING to do the job that most of us aren't. If these gooey, lovey, liberal scum can't accept that, maybe they should go find another country to live in. Nobody I mean NOBODY wants war. If we could run this country without a military, we would, but that kind of reasoning works about as well as communism. Looks great on paper, but when you try to implement it its perverted by human error, greed and shortcoming's.
Another bunch of crap is when people talk about our defense spending being too much. Soldiers are not well paid. I also don't want to hear about another Rumsfeld mistake on trying to do this war on the cheap. If you make the decision to send hundreds of thousands of troops into Baghdad, do it right. Flood them with supplies, support and whatever they could ever want to get the job done. Those people are out there dying for our cause, how dare we ration our dollars at their expense!
Ok... I think I'd better stop now...sigh
|Busted Knuckles
I think we're following the best course possible, which is infiltration, occupation and attempting to "re-educate" them that we're not really the "infidel demons" they've been programed to think we are.
Hey Bluepen. I lived at Ft Hood and Killeen way back around '72-'74. My dad was in the 1st Cav. Is Avenue D still the place the GI's like to hang? I would imagine its changed quite a bit since then.
I work here at Ft. Hood where the 4th I D and 1st Cav are based and within the next few weeks it will be both very hard and joyful at the same time. Its going to be hard because several very good friends are going to be leaving soon with the 1st Cav. Joyful because during that same time 18 military firefighters that work with us are coming home with the 13th Corps Support Command. We have worked side by side with these guys for several years, living,training, working and just being good friends. We have thought of and prayed for these guys for over a year now. Now I don't want to mess them up because they still have a few weeks left but thankfully none of them have been hurt so far.
We are very proud of our troops here and we wish them all well and gods speed on a safe return.
|My nephew is in Baghdad right now with the 82nd Airborn/Rangers. I fully support their efforts. I've got cousins who share the same views as your old room mates and I no longer talk to them.
Okay here we go. . . . I personally get scared when i think about how this war is going to end, because I simply think it won't until we commit genocide. Yes I know the solidity of the word and I would only use it if I knew that we are fighting an army that won't give up. They can't give up. Jihad is 'HOLY WAR', you fight to get into the kingdom of Allah, if you give up, you go to hell. Simple as that. How do you tell an entire army of terrorists who just happened to be brainwashed into this religion? (yes, I used the words brainwashed and religion in the same sentance, imagine that)
As far as the Draft goes, I'm a cancer survivor, so personally, I feel like I'm cheated by exemption. I would go if I knew that it would be THE last resort to protect our country. But right now, I don't think the Bush administration has done much else other than drop bombs and cause chaos. There are covert operations that could have been carried out to solve this. Ever see a 007 movie? Ever play Metal Gear Solid? Same principle. If they use terrorism to inflict damage and still remain blameless by trying to hide the identity of the terrorists, why can't we? So what if it's a dirty game, it works!!!!!!! And only at the expense of a few extremely noble lives that are dedicated to the cause. Not husbands, fathers, and friends who were 'chosen' to do the task against their will.
War = Solution that SHOULD be used as a last resort.
Soldier = Pawns in a game diplomats play to get credibility back.
Cost = Human lives + billions in national debt.
Outcome = Impossible for everyone to be happy.
Counter-terrorism = Covert ops to put pressure on a government by remaining an anonymous entity.
Soldier = (checkers) Free willing man against an equal.
Cost = Supplies and intel for one man (or group)
Outcome = Possible diplomatic solutions with less lives lost.
I have 2 friends, one of them I am extremely close to, that are soon to depart over there. I'm not sure of their duties, but I'm sure of their dedication. When they decided to enlist, they knew what they were getting into. Their reasons are different from mine because I had a job, a loving girlfriend, and a future. I'm not saying they didn't, but if they believed they did, I don't think they would have ever have signed up in the first place. The best soldiers go into battle with nothing to lose. Just because they went, they are always winners in my book. Reguarless of the outcome. That is their goal, and I respect that.

|I was born in the Army. My dad went to the Nam twice. Most of him came back (me and Toby Keith have a lot in common). I did four years in the Air Force as a Crewchief on C-141's and C-130's ('77-'81) and saw some ******* I didn't particularly want to see that nobody even knew about. Now I'm a Quality Auditor for the company that builds those C-17 Globemasters. So I've always been very patriotic. I like what we're trying to do for Iraq. But at the same time it really ticks me off that our leadership, both democrats and republicans, are sending people's jobs overseas, all the little freedoms that we take for granted seem to be disappearing, our children are being brainwashed to be politically correct snitches just like Hitlers' youth were, and there's no end in sight. So basically my sense of duty and patriotism and what freedom always meant to me, are being seriously challenged.
Iraq is only a small portion of what the United States supports in military might. I believe and have read some of the great things we have already done in Iraq. Yes, the press singles out the negative and bloody problems, however, search out the positive stories behind the scenes.
I think every good person should spend a couple years in a military branch. An United States citizen has an obligation for their freedom. I know some of us have already provided our support for the freedom to let others speak their minds and live without tyranny.

Woah larry!! Watch out!
Lol, sorry Larry, I think you misunderstood my post. I do NOT want to bring up the truck thread again, lets bury it. What I meant to say was what do you think about the war in general, and what do you think about the people who would skip draft.
|crazy larry
Re: Friends off to Iraq
personally, i think anytime you send a young man (or now woman) off to battle, a horrible atrocity is committed. your gonna see and do stuff that NO ONE should ever have to do. now that i'm old enough not to go, but my kids are....... i feel even more so that old men should be sent off to war. not kids. well hell, maybe some peoples kids. war sucks.
i think this war is gonna cost Bush next election.
as for your indian buddies, i agree with you. fn wussies. go back to kashmir.
sorry i missed the smoking thread, i've been out, but i think you shouldn't of narced em off, not till it was like a week or two later, and still running the roads. ***** happens, to all of us. walk a mile in my shoes..... let he who is without sin cast the first stone...... do unto others as you would have them do unto you..... etc etc etc......
well you asked.......
Friends off to Iraq
Well first off, before I say anything else, I just wanted to shout out a quick "I'm sorry" for the last thread I stared about the smoking truck that turned into such a crap-shoot. I said some stuff that wasn't needed on this site.
That said... I'm a little down this week because three of my friends are going off to war. One of them just got married, one of them is going to miss his marriage (has to do it quick, justice of the peace style) and the third is a 2nd lt. just out of college. Anyway, I spent the weekend back home meeting one of them for his last visit home for two years. Its basically the last time I'll see "him" because when he comes back I'm sure he'll be nothing the same. He's running fire support for the ambulance there in one of the bad parts of Baghdad. That means anytime crap hits the fan, he's got to rush out there, clean up the attackers, load the wounded into the ambulance, and evacuate. Most of the guys doing his job now have some pretty bad combat shock. I'm proud of him though, and if my country called me up, I'd strap on the rifle and do what I had to do... which brings me to my next point...
I was talking to some of my old room-mates (who happened to be Indian in descent) and asked them what would happen if bush started a draft. They just told me "dude, this war is BS, I would strait-up roll over to Canada." There were quite a few of them and their friends (not all Indian btw) who said the same thing. I could not have been more pissed off. Especially since they were second generation here in the US. I mean, you come here, go to the university, enjoy the life in the united states, use all the benefits and pleasures that this country provides, then when its your time to do your service YOU GET UP AND RUN AWAY?!?!?!? WTF!!!! The reason I mentioned they were Indian is that they are new citizens in their family. Their family obviously came here because it was a good opportunity. So they think its great to be here, go to the best schools in the world, enjoy the best economy in the world, enjoy our freedom, but not deliver when we need them. I seriously wanted to knock that dude's block off... Sigh.
What do u all think about that and this war?
By the way, I get the feeling somebody who's a bit older is going to start preaching to me about the vietnam war and how that was a real war and this one isn't and that I should be grateful that we're not in that war and that my friends aren't going there. I don't want to hear it. I have nothing but respect for all the people who served in that war, I don't pretend to know what it was like and I'm not comparing the two. So let me pre-empt that before somebody calls me too young to talk about this.

BUIES CREEK, N.C.-Summer collegiate baseball is in full swing across the country, and five Camels are honing their skills in three leagues.
Jimmy Brenneman (Hamilton Joes / Great Lakes Summer Collegiate League) – Brenneman still stands among the leaders in the Great Lakes League in a number of categories, tying for the lead in times hit by pitch with seven after leading the NCAA and setting a new school record in the spring at Campbell. The rising senior is second in walks with 15, tied for third in stolen bases with eight, forth in runs scored at 15, tied for 11th in hits at 21 and ranks 16th in batting average with a .323 clip. Over the last 14 games, Brenneman has notched a hit in 13 of them, with the only exception being a June 28 contest against the Lima Locos where Brenneman did not record an official at-bat. In that game, Brenneman walked, posted a sacrifice and was hit by a pitch in a 4-3 Joes win. He is hitting .340 over that span. The Joes are 9-13 on the year.
Ryne Briley (Gastonia Grizzlies / Coastal Plain League) – Briley is batting .169 for Gastonia, collecting 11 hits in 25 games with 21 starts. The Seattle Wash. native has scored seven runs and driven in six over the course of the summer. Briley has stolen six bases in nine attempts for the 15-15 Grizzlies.
Erick Gaylord (Watertown Wizards / Perfect Game Collegiate Baseball League) – Gaylord has seen his summer average climb from .270 to .323 in a week, now standing just outside the PGCBL's top-15 (No. 15 owns a .324 batting average). The rising Campbell senior is also tied for third in the league in RBIs with 20 and second in stolen bases with 11. Gaylord has posted a pair of home runs with three doubles, scoring 13 times. The Wizards are 8-10 on the season, but are winners of five of their last seven (since June 28) after dropping five in a row from June 19-26.
Matt Marksberry (Hamilton Joes / Great Lakes Summer Collegiate League) – Marksberry owns a 1-3 record and a 4.87 ERA in four starts for the Hamilton Joes. The Batavia, Ohio native has allowed only 15 hits in 20 1/3 innings, striking out 14. In his only appearance last week, Marksberry surrendered five runs, four earned, on five hits with three punchouts and a pair of walks in an 11-2 loss to the Southern Ohio Copperheads. The Joes are 9-13 on the year.
Ryan Mattes (Peninsula Pilots / Coastal Plain League) – Mattes has fashioned a 2.00 ERA in four appearances with a 1-0 record after picking up a win in his last appearance. The rising junior has fanned eight and walked only one in nine innings for the 18-13 Pilots.
Jake Smith (St. Cloud River Bats / Northwoods League) – Smith made his first appearance with St. Cloud on June 28, allowing one unearned run in 4 1/3 frames with five hits, three walks and a strikeout. In his next start, Smith picked up his first win of the summer, tossing six shutout innings with three hits and one strikeout. Smith has also made a pair of relief appearances, earning a save in his last outing, fanning two of the three batters he faced in a perfect inning against Duluth. The River Bats are 12-17 on the season, and are 6-4 in their last 10 games.

In "Less fuel at 55" (Forum, Feb. 24), Frank Lewis proposed reducing the speed limit in high traffic areas on yellow or red burn days to save fuel and thereby reduce air pollution.
Last fall, I made some test runs with my car. Driving at 55 mph instead of 75, my gas mileage improved by 24 percent, with, I assume, an equivalent reduction in atmospheric emissions.
Those who are concerned about smog, those who want to reduce their driving expenses, and others who just want to do the right thing, could voluntarily reduce their speed without new regulatory dictates. After all, there is no law against driving at 55 mph.

Will have to give it a try. I, ofr one, enjoy shooting different calibers and different makes. Never cared too much for having several guns all of the same caliber to "save ammo room."

The Jimmy Dore Show Podcast Dec. 14, 2012
The Jimmy Dore Show Dec 14, 2012
computer software stores
Originating from KPFK 90.7 FM in Los Angeles, The Jimmy Dore Show is an irreverent and humorous take on today's headlines and hypocrites. The program skewers politicians as well as the corporate mouthpieces which make up today's mainstream "news media." Each and every week, The Jimmy Dore Show provides the unvarnished truth with a twist of funny.
Don't forget to subscribe, donate, and review the show on iTunes!
When watching the attached clip, Americans should remember that if this tragedy happened 10 years ago, in England, Piers Morgan would be hacking the phones of the children and parents in order to exploit their suffering for the prophets of the Murdoch empire.
The comparisons are spot on Jimmy. It's a wink and a nod showing you know what's up. A noble form of comedy. Reminds me of a court jester jokingly calling the king out at the risk of losing his own head.
Someone made the same point

Temple of Parisian dining auctions off rare wines
By Estelle Shirbon and Laure Bretton
PARIS (Reuters Life!) - The illustrious Paris restaurant La Tour d'Argent put up for sale on Monday 18,000 bottles from its vast cellars, offering wine lovers a chance to acquire treasures from one of the world's finest collections.
It is the first time in the restaurant's 427-year history that it has parted with some of the wines, champagnes and spirits carefully selected by generations of sommeliers to please the palates of guests from monarchs to movie stars.
"These are like children to me, I'm both happy and sad to see them go," said David Ridgway, head sommelier at La Tour d'Argent for 28 years, speaking in the packed auction hall.
Among the star attractions was a bottle of "Clos du Griffier" cognac dated 1788, starting at 2,500 euros. Bids soared and in less than two minutes, it was sold for 25,000 euros ($37,200). The proceeds will go to charity.
The buyer was Raphael Zier, a 38-year-old Frenchman who described himself as an Internet entrepreneur in London. He told reporters it was a good way to make a donation and he intended to drink the cognac with some friends.
The rest of the sale will raise funds for La Tour d'Argent to undertake renovation projects and acquire new wines.
The restaurant by the River Seine, where diners enjoy a dazzling view of Notre Dame cathedral, was hoping to raise at least 1 million euros from the two-day auction, though by the end of the first day it looked set to do much better than that.
