That was sure very fascinating.
I like this pioneer architect 'Le Corbusier', too.
Many years ago I visited his famous "La Chapelle de Notre-Dame du
Haut"

Lester Mosley is the name of a person. He is an old friend. nothing more
mysterious than that.
Stuff he posts is stored in that newsgroup. Right now he is rather
interested in the subject of satellite radio so most of his posts are about
that.
I cross post to that group because it is easier for me to find my posts if
they are crossposted there. Rather than all over the place, which is
convenient because I am interested in so many things and sometimes i forget
what i posted and where. makes it easier to track followups.
It isn't mysterious at all.
also lester is a nice guy

hmmm. The group was created in his name. there are many groups that are
named after individuals, both famous real celebrities (eg
alt.fan.frank-sinatra) so you couldn't post about a celebrity in the group
about him without including his name
so too unfamous person usenet groups.
these are called "vanity groups".
where a person has a vanity group, there is generally no restriction against
including that groups name if the vanity group considers the post on topic.
as lester has not restricted topic content in any way that i am aware of, it
is ok for me to post stuff there. If he ever had a problem with it he
certainly would tell me
I am supposed to see him in person next weekend so i will ask him then

hetero woman yes. rather young - absolutely not. but women do not disclose
their ages and of course you must know it is impoilte in the US to inquire
about a woman's age.

LOL
Thank you for you kind words but reality is a tad different :-)
There are mass-production industries (cement, aluminum, steel, etc) and
the
problem is they *do* pollute quite a lot, even if they are not so
numerous
as in Germany...
Only in the last decade there were made some efforts to apply stricter
pollution-prevention standards but it's going quite slowly...
Not to mention the huge pollution by cars in the big cities...

I would like to thank him, I saw there some interesting things and they
gave
me some ideas !
So here I am posting a couple of pictures from houses I found in that
magazine, certainly not post-modern (except *maybe* the house in New
Mexico,
the last in the bottom) but houses I really liked them.

You may mail them to me (address according to header). As I'm just

into the usenet.
But you may also be able to try it directly. Just 'sign in' there

Lucky you :-)
From today I'll also be on a short vacation of about 10 days, sailing at the
Aegean sea.
I'll be back Monday August 1st (I think ;-)).

For some strange reason when I click on the links on google it gives me
"HTTP 404 - Could not find the file" !!!
I had to directly access the site (http://www.gordonrogers.com/) and then
look at various pictures.
Well, the guy is good, it seems he is specialized in "monumental"
architecture ;-)
His work is not post-modern IMO (except maybe the second house ;-)) but it
is certainly much nearer to the style I prefer.
He is inventive in shading, I also like how he integrates parts of the house
to the scenery.
He is heavily using glass, iron and wood.
He is lucky to have something we miss here in Europe: the liberty to design
BIG houses !
I like the work of Dick McNeill, the work of the Ambrose, Swanson & Assoc.
bureau, the work of Bennie M. Gonzales, Henrik Bull, also Roger Lee.
Of course all of the them older architects but with a big pall-mares.
Talk again in about 10 days, enjoy your vacation :-)

Thanks, gogu, for your expert comment.
I've also looked at the photos that you had mailed to me. Thus, I now
understand a bit more what you'd rather call "ridiculous"
architecture.

I've tried to check whether I could find something /at the web/ about
them.
So far, nothing was yet found on
- Dick McNeill,
- Ambrose, Swanson & Assoc.,
- Bennie M. Gonzales
though.
I've got, e.g., this pic on the Norwegian architect *Henrik Bull*:
http://www.artemisia.no/arc/historisk/oslo/bygninger/maskinhallen.1914.html
Regarding *Roger Lee*
http://www.ced.berkeley.edu/cedarchives/profiles/lee.htm
e.g. this photo "Channing residence, Sausalito 1952" is to be seen.

Did you have a glance at the "Virtual Tour" there? You can stop the
flowing panorama film and, thus, enter the various buildings. One of
the Wiesbaden building highlights is the famous /Greek stylish/
*Kurhaus*. Be sure, to have a virtual look inside of it, too.
I bet, gogu (as architect) may appreciate those views, too, upon his
cruise return, soon.

Thus, you'll know how that building looks like.
Then click (directly here) at

As soon as the Kurhaus appears on the panorama film (that runs

The University of Saarland was founded in 1947

and it was decided in 1949 that the Medical Faculty remains in Homburg.
There are, of course, many buildings (clinics, etc) on that campus.

He is German.. but this is an Ex-US military base the campus is on. I
do not recall the name.. but the streets are like "Virginia strasse"
and other states...
I have searched but unable to figure out the name of the base. I know
it is near Saarland state.. maynot be IN Saarland though, but a short
15-20 min ride if that.

Besides Amsterdam I do know Callantsoog (same region as Akersloot; - a
bit more northern, though) with its beautiful beaches.
It's pretty similar to "the Hamptons" (Long Island) where I spent
many weekends each summer during my management assignment in Manhattan.
Or, furthermore, Cape May (New Jersey) or Cape Cod (Massachusetts) is
about comparable as far as the Atlantic beaches and their surrounding
landscapes are concerned.

I am famillar with those bases.. only been on the road that lead to
Ramstien and Landstuhl, and was in K-town as well.
But this was a closed base and turned over to Germany. Had been for
quite a few years before being converted to a University. I just know
it was in use in 1991 for the gulf war effort.., and in 2002 it was a
university.

No never have been. no intrest in the bases.. My friend went to school
at the above said closed base. Only reason... I just in travels been
near the other bases.

That is one heck of a drive. Did you have a rental? I know many rental
agenices will not let you take the car out of the country due to
insurance issues and possible theft or violence in some areas of

I was there in May and it was quite cold, and windy so it wasnt that
pleasnt. I have never been to Cape May in NJ, but did make it to
Atlantic City beaches just a few weeks ago. I ahve eben to numerous
beaches up and down the east coast, as I happen to live here in
Virginia.

No. I had bought a black Firebird (Pontiac) in Fort Worth and I had to
get a Texas Drivers License for insurance purposes (examination &
practical driving test at the local police office).
But we, my friend and I, decided to use his brand new red VW that he
had shipped from Germany to New York for the Mexico trip. With that car
we drove /at first/ from Manhattan via Nashville to Little Rock
(Arkansas) (our first so-called "home stay") to the Dallas and Fort
Worth area (Texas).
With the Firebird we, another friend though and I, made a trip from
Fort Worth to New Orleans (meeting a girlfriend), then going West to
Houston (Texas) (another "home stay"), to the Grand Canyon &
Petrified Forest area, to Las Vegas, to Los Angeles (another "home
stay"), and via Nr. 1 (Big Sur, etc) to San Mateo (last "home
stay").
While my friend then parted by bus to Chicago, I had decided to live in
San Francisco.
Later-on, I had picked up 2 students (girl & boy) at Berkeley, and we
moved back to the East Coast: Sacramento, Lake Tahoe, Salt Lake City,
Rocky Mountains, Denver, Chicago (seeing my friend there), Wilmington,
Washington, D.C. ... and finally arriving in Manhattan (again). ...

Yes. Just a visitor. I recall waking up to the sirens going to that

So you really had enough time to discover the countryside around and
adjacent cities.
Btw, one of the houses of my parents-in-law was in Sippersfeld, located
within beautiful hillsides (forests and fields) (about 50 miles south
of the Rhine-Main area where we live). Some years ago, we spent many
weekends there. For shopping and dining we (i.e. the family) went
frequently to nearby Kaiserslautern (which you know, too).

Unfortunately, we missed most of these scenic views since we had to
drive through the winter night in January (arriving in Nashville after
midnight).
The following evening, we were welcomed by a lawyer's family in
Little Rock (Arkansas) who had given a party for us. The next day,
their charming student daughter showed us the city and we met one of
the real Rockefellers in his office and had, later-on, a power boat's
ride on the local lake.

Well, I'm glad you do.
I am a mountain climber (rock and ice tours) and a skier.
I had even great skiing experiences (e.g. as an instructor at an
Austrian Ski School located in Manhattan). We went usually Friday
evenings (right after the job) /by bus/ to Killington, Vermont, and
some other places or to the Catskills (New York State). I had to give
lessons on Saturday and Sunday from 10 to 12 a.m.. The rest of the time
was for own purposes, i.e. plenty of skiing /at no cost/. And we had
nice parties, organised by that Austrian Club. Girls, girls, girls...
(like in paradise).
With one of those ladies (an account manager of a Manhattan advertising
agency at Fifth Avenue) I've got closer. I went then, later-on, only
with her /by car/ to those skiing areas and in addition to Great Gorge
(New Jersey) - usually for day and night skiing close to and dining
at the /former/ Playboy Club Hotel (that's been sold meanwhile).

Hi Lester,
while I'm used to go there by car, you can reach the following most
beautiful Swiss region (in summer or winter) by train, too.
Perhaps starting from Zurich (Switzerland) to the Engadin region (St.
Moritz and then Pontresina):
http://www.engadin.ch/007stm_010000_en.htm
http://www.pontresina.com/011stm_00_de.htm
There is e.g. the 'Bernina Glacier-Pass' - pleasure-trip with the
Rhaetian Railway:

http://www.pontresina.com/011stm_010005_en.htm

Summer map:
http://www.pontresina.com/static_pgs/en/bergkarte/img/somap_04.gif
You can go by rail right directly to the Morteratsch glacier (South of
Pontresina) and see the splendid /white/ 'Piz Bernina' - one of
the most beautiful mountain views in the European Alps.
http://www.diavolezza.ch/022stm_030405_en.htm

AH that sounds very nice. I enjoyed a few parties in Germany too with a
few girls. Being near the French Border they were French.... and also a
few nights at the Club Y near Homburg. I still recall the Desperados

You mean getting used to the rapidity on German highways (more than
frequently 160 km/h or 100 mph). Having returned from the USA, I've
got used to the max. 70 mph, and I rarely drive faster than 80 mph.

I see.
Driving across the USA /forth and back from coast to coast/ I enjoyed
that American feel along the highways, too; - just getting a Burger
fast food in neat restaurants served by charming and good looking gals.
However, some of the off-chain Burgers, prepared by individual cooks,
sometimes were spicier and tasted better.
In Germany now, I enjoy - once and a while - eating a McRib along with
a chef-salad...

There are particularly a lot of castles and ruins in the Rhine area
between Wiesbaden and Cologne and, of course, elsewhere in Germany and
all-over the whole European continent and Great Britain.

Yeah, it must be very exciting there. I've seen a lot of pics and
films on that. At my first flight to the USA though, I had a stop-over
at Reykjavik in the middle of the night. So, unfortunately, I didn't
see anything of that beautiful island state.

What heights do the mountains have there?
Occasionally, we eat 'smoked Virginia farmer bacon' (specially done
with honey) that we get in the German supermarkets. Its taste is
exquisite.

I prefer the German 'white beer' (Kristall Weizenbier). Yesterday
evening, I had, for the first time, a Murphy's Red at an Irish Pub in
Wiesbaden. Good taste, too.
They offer also an Irish Stout. What kind of a beer or drink is that?

Yes, very nice and interesting. I like that street with the tulip

I'm impressed by the fact that Roanoke is a five-time All-American

beauty and exceptional amenities.

Well, as I said we were in Eastern/Southern Aegean and we also spent 4 days
in
Turkey.
Nice people, nice food, not NAZI Turks like Seanie & Co we all know
here...
In Crete we were lucky to meet by chance with an opera singer I adore, but I
can't give more details ;-)
I wouldn't like to give more details on-line because as soon as someone says
something the well known NAZI Turkish TROLLS jump in to distort and flame
and later use it against him in a Goebbels style...
It was a nice trip, we were 6 persons (two of us with skipper license), we
had favorable wind most of the times but I am not ashamed to admit that some
times we did use of the boat's engine, too ;-)
From now on just small 3-4 days "escapes" ;-)

Hello Gogu,
that's a very nice cruise, indeed.
I've seen many /Turk vacation/ offers and relevant travel TV-reports.
I admit that it is a beautiful country for short holiday trips and that
people would be very nice there. The Turk food, as I know it from
restaurants here, tastes well, too. The Turks I've met in their shops
(e.g. in their Wiesbaden community) are very pleasant people.

That sounds very exciting.
I hold all sailing and motorboat licenses. Even a university
certificate (Zeugnis)
http://groups.google.de/group/de.sci.philosophie/msg/56f32eefdb0d6d31
by the "Hochschule Bremerhaven".
My largest cruise (in the Thyrrenian Sea) was about 800sm (8 people
crew) on a (2 masts) ketch from the Côte d'Azur (Juan-les-Pins,
close to Cannes) to Corsica, down south at its west coast to Sardinia
(anchoring in Olbia and Porto Cervo), up north at Corsica's east
coast, in a heavy storm getting close to Elba, then northwest to Monte
Carlo (Monaco), St. Tropez and finally back to Juan-les-Pins.
Otherwise, I'm used to sail a lot with a smaller boat (alone or with
1-2 friends) in the Sardinian area (around our family's house)
between the Costa Romantica [Golfo Aranci & Tavolara (island)] and the
Costa Smeralda.

Agreed.
To tell you the truth, I have always felt very well in Turkey, unlike some
times in Greece...
Especially in restaurants ;-)
Turkish food is quite similar to the Greek one, so no problems here.
>> ... use it against him in a Goebbel's style...

Yeah, he is one of the oldest Turkish TROLLS here, but he is "shallow" and
quite stupid, he is doing so much harm to Turkey's public image that I
couldn't think of a better anti-Turkish "weapon" ;-)
Just ignore him as I am doing, most posters are ignoring him, too.
He spends his entire life in Usenet, he is posting all day around, it's
obvious he is SICK...

of boats.

Wow, a really interesting cruise !
My largest cruise when the owner of the school I got my license wanted a
"crew" to go in Italy (Ancona) and bring in Greece his brand new sailing
boat, a very beautiful two-mast boat !
I was offered along with a couple of other students.
It was a hell of an experience, as in our way back to Greece we met a storm
in Adriatic !
It was terrifying but now I see it as a valuable experience...

Yeah, I had a friend from there when I was studying in Italy, nice waters
but ... quite cold ;-)
>> From now on just small 3-4 days "escapes" ;-)

Yeah, and today begins another one until Tuesday evening, everything is
closed here Monday so everybody takes the chance of a 3 or 4 days small
vacation ;-)
Talk again Tuesday evening !

Btw, we have to make those terrifying experiences in our lives.
I'm always recalling Homer's Odysseus story or all the ancient
sailors with no such technical equipment as we have it nowadays...

It is terribly cold and stormy in May and until mid June: only about
max. 13°C in the house. As I usually do not like to sit in front of
the fireplace, I prefer to wear (in the evenings) my warm ski dress
/inside/ to feel a bit comfortable.
Only in July and August it is pretty hot there, too. But,
unfortunately, because of business matters, I had - in recent years
- no more opportunity to get there in the more pleasant main season.

That is strange.. I didnt think there were many stop-over flights

Virginia highest is 5,729 and West VA is 4,861 But these mountains are
very old. Much older than the Alps and Rockies. Nature has worn them
down. You can look at these and see what the ALps and ROckies will look
like in several million years.

Yes very nice. There is one poor sap that used to live in Roanoke, and

bad the place is. But no one listens to him, or takes him seriously. I
think all cities and towns has one of those people in it.

Very nice!
That's about the height of those mountains surrounding Lake Constance
(area of my Bavarian origin!) at the Austrian and Swiss parts. Very
beautiful 'lake and mountain view' directly from my family's
house.

I see.
Same applies e.g. for the smaller mountains in the middle of Germany.
The rocks are different (harder and older) there.

Yeah, yesterday, I had a Murphy's Stout there. The (German) waitress
(in that very authentic real-ancient pub) said that the Murphy's is
milder than the Beamish, but both are similar to the Guinness. She did
know neither its brewing nor its ingredients.
It tastes like 'malt beer' with a slight bitterness which is not
really what I (generally, as a 'dry white wine' drinker!) enjoy.
Meanwhile I learned that it is made of dark roasted grains, malts
dominate the flavor and hops are for the slight bitter touch.

Ah Icelandair has cheap flights.. I am condering them or maybe one of
our Domestic ones or find an extremly cheap flight to Germany, take
train /bus to Hahn then take the really really cheap flights on
Ryanair. only. if it is cheaper in the long run..

Many are less though. I would say average is 2000-4000 feet.

Agreeded. It is moslty Granite here. Very hard rock.. but they did

It appears to me, Lester, that you won't like the high mountains and
the marvellous Swiss Engadin area (i.e. St. Moritz, Pontresina, the
Bernina mountain group with the Morteratsch glacier and the Diavolezza;
etc (see links as given). Perhaps, I understand, you would not consider
a travel (by train) into that area; - that's one of my most favoured
ones as far as mountain climbing and skiing is concerned.

I have to agree in 2003 We took a flight mid-week to Forli, Italy (near
Bologna) and then a train to Rome.. We spent the day in Forli and then
took an overnight train, and on the way back we spent two nights in
Ravenna. before catching the flight back to Hahn.. But it is way out
of the way in curvy roads.. But now I see why we "hid" the airbase so
far out...

Nice European trip arrangement, indeed.
*Hahn* was a former US-Army Airbase that has now to be used
commercially in close cooperation with the Frankfurt Airport with its
limited expansion capacity (due to political protest initiatives).

You are right, who is taking to him seriously ?
I am ignoring 99% of his postings, I am just stopping some time to bitchslap
him for a while as it is so funny to see him getting red in face and
following me angry around Usenet like a little nice stalker dog ;-)

Hi Lester,
meanwhile, you may have seen my answer of 15th August regarding your
entire former posting.
Yesterday, we saw (at German TV) the "fights" in Virginia
http://news.google.co.uk/news?hl=en&ned=us&ie=UTF-8&q=virginia+laptops+stampede&btnG=Search+News
for 50$-laptops...
As far as I recall we (in Europe) had similar chaotic situations as
well in Germany as in Poland (at Media Mart) in the recent past.

Well, it is widely known the love the Germans had for the ancient Greek
culture and how they have builded several of their public buildings like old
Greek temples :-)
The night view is beautifull indeed.
But here I have to state that the "Greek style components" some of my fellow
architects used to incorporate in their buildings at the beginning of the
post-modern movement make me feel sick :-)
Thank G-d this trend is almost forgotten by now...
Sorry, I believe that such representative elements of a given style (Greek,
Romanic, Gothic, etc) should be left alone and not to be introduced as
"separate" elements in modern architecture...
But this is my personal view and only that.

Indeed.
However, the images of the European cities are still dominated by those
styles, and people seem to appreciate the feeling generated thereof
much more than the one that is induced by the nowadays hypermodern
'glass & steel buildings and skyscrapers' added to the
traditionally perceived scenery. - Maybe the world's youngsters would
already think and feel different...

I agree in general.
Nowadays it would be awful if architects did it that way. In former
times, there was an entirely different approach (as you mentioned
above).

But, fortunately, both of us (it seems to me) can basically agree on

A definition of the slang word "les branchouilles" in English as
well as in French is to be found via

In German "Coquille" means a special food (ragout) in a shell.
Diverse restaurants in France, Canada and the USA (etc) have as a name
"Coquille". In a derisive way it means, as I've perceived it, a
person who is ironically to be pointed at as having some kind of a
crazy-stupid attitude and strange thoughts or the like.
What, Marika, did the other poster suggest (where)?

In "dc"? Or do you mean "de"?
Otherwise what's "dc" all about?
District of Columbia (DC) won't be it in this context as I guess.

one of the posters in the thread you provided to elaborate on
branchouille said that, when a word ends in ille, that it has a
derisive tone to it. ie one person said that branche means plugged in,
and that branchouille normally means that the person is plugged in
but the next person added that it is a bit derisive when used that way,
in the sense that while the person is plugged in, they are nonetheless
so at a shallow level
then they gave a few more examples of words that have that ending and
is also derisive
so i started wondering about words like coquille and andouille

i have never been to de but would like to
but I meant that I was going to be in District of Columbia through
February.
Partly I mentioned it because you asked somewhere in another post where
I am at and I said DC. At that time I believed I would be leaving soon
but it seems that I will be here a bit longer
I also said that for Lester's benefit
he visisted me a few weeks ago and i wanted him to know he has more
opportunities

Hi Marika,
as my friends at soc.culture.french (4 links --> below) suggested the
second /supposed/ meaning cannot - neither explicitly nor implicitly -
be confirmed.

Meanwhile, it turned out that you've mixed up the endings
"-ouille" (e.g. in "les branchouilles") with "-ille". This
makes quite a decisive difference in the French language, though :-)
John of Aix had written in the csf.thread you mentioned:
<cit> Pat made a good point about the '-ouille' ending which is useful
to remember, except perhaps for 'citrouille' ;-) </cit>
[The original posting of Pat o Beure, unfortunately, is being deleted
meanwhile by Google (after 6 days as indicated).]
The following, Marika, is a compilation of my current discussion at scf
as far as "la coquille" is concerned:

What do you mean as regards Lester's "more opportunities" (in
what context)?
I wrote today something
http://groups.google.de/group/Designer-Fashion-Europa/msg/cec15305f7a88f6c
about Gwen Stefani's fashion trends. And recently this about "GWEN
CHIC":

Yesterday I posted something about the German model's /Eva Padberg/
Hollywood movie integration (in Canada) as a new actress.

Did you formerly "know" Eva or see something about her in the USA
(e.g. magazine cover photos, etc)?

I don't like the modern steel an glass buildings and latest architectural
researches proved they are also expensive in their maintenance and *very*
expensive to air condition them, especially during the summer...

But I can see some of my colleagues still using in their facades (and not

Uuups, sorry but I missed that one !
Well, Roger Lee won several times the "Architect of the Year" title and I
like most of their work.
In the link you've provided about Roger Lee you can see a "humble" picture
and you'll understand his style and his architectural preferences...
He has designed some neat houses in USA and I really like his style if he is
diseased now.
To me he was a man who inspired some of my works.
I am curious if the other article about Henrik Bull mentions his works in
USA...
To me he was one of architects I liked their work on private housing.
About the others you are mentioning you didn't find anything, well, what can
I say ?
It seems that architects and their work are not considered worthy to be
included in the Internet ;-)
Some of the them also won the title of the "Architect of the Year".
Stay well!
I need a week of sleeping, I have just returned and as you may have noticed
we extended our cruise by a couple of days ;-)
We sailed to Skiathos island which is the longest Aegean cross from the
Thessaloniki to an island, almost 100 miles...
It took us 24 hours to go and 24 hours to return and if we had stayed as
planned we would have stay only ... a couple of days in the island, so we
decided to extend our "sojourn".
Nice trip but we are all tired, so talk again tomorrow evening !
Stay well.
