Just call 122 and you'll get pleasant free ride on police helicopter to Katoomba centre ( for my stupidity and partially laziness I had this mostly pleasant experience once but would not repeat it again)dmitry@sghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11498077310652255296noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4815867514277794362.post-38423826730436876862013-08-21T13:02:34.977+10:002013-08-21T13:02:34.977+10:00Ackman's latest 8 page diatribe on Herbalife c...Ackman's latest 8 page diatribe on Herbalife can be found here-> http://stocksdd.blogspot.com/2013/08/stocks-dd-cites-ackmans-quarterly.htmlStocks DDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12288966234260002690noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4815867514277794362.post-76546663956495700312013-08-20T10:36:42.967+10:002013-08-20T10:36:42.967+10:00Claudes! awesome and just the right venue.

The sommelier was suitably reverential, asked if we really were willing to let him do the decanting ( he also wanted the empty bottle but settled for the cork).<br />The best lobster bisque I have had anywhere in the world was at Claudes.<br /><br />SOG in NY <br /> Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4815867514277794362.post-48781819315809124132013-08-20T02:33:46.192+10:002013-08-20T02:33:46.192+10:00Gee that's great.

You lost weight on Herbalife.<br /><br />Why not become an Herbalife distributor?<br /><br />After all--Work from Home Inc says you can <i>totally</i> make mad dough selling Herbalife.<br /><br />Or at least it did say that prior to Bill Ackman's allegations.<br /><br />But you know, Mr. Bronte Capital, I think you can really pull this off. I think you've got that particular mix of motivation and massive self-deception that it takes to really make it. And best of all?

It's more that you watching the amount you eating and therefore eating less and maybe exercising more as well. Wrong conclusion, my friend.You can swap the shake with water you will get more weight lost. Therefore your conclusion would be there is something in your water.

They are a legal business model; Herbalife is a legal and profitable business. He tried to manipulate the stock price, and short-sell. I was hoping anybody who could buy the stock, would.
