TTABlog Test: Which of These Three Section 2(d) Oppositions Was/Were Dismissed?

A TTAB judge once told me that one can predict the outcome of a Section 2(d) case 95% of the time by just looking at the involved goods and services and the marks. Maybe he or she was referring to ex parte cases only. Anyway, let's see how you do with the three oppositions summarized below. At least one of them was dismissed. Answer(s) in the first comment.

Greenbaum) [Opposition to registration of POUPETTE ST BARTH for perfumery and personal care products (ST BARTH disclaimed), in view of the registered marks ST BARTH (in standard characters) and LSB LIGNE ST BARTH and Design (LIGNE disclaimed), for overlapping products.]
