Daily Housekeeping (covering some questions)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Price Minimum: None
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Shorts Allowed: No
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Deadline: January 14, 2008 - prior to market open
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Open: To anyone who can make an entry post by deadline.
Participation, sharing, and contributing is strongly encouraged.
If you can provide a brief overview of your pick, it
might be valuable to others. Something like this fake one:

Company: International Mega Mining Group
URL: www.internationalmegamininggroup.com
Founded: 1849 as a co-op for placer mining in California.
Stock: traded on Interplanetary Stock Exchange IMM
Shares: 1 billion
Market Cap: $US 7.0 billion
Production: xxx ouces gold, xxx ounces of silver etc..
Reserves: xxx ounces of gold, xxx ounces of silver. etc...
Properties: Producing on Mars. Exploration on Venus and Neptune
Why I picked it: Proven ability to turn exploration properties on Mars into
viable profitable projects, will result in similar results on Venus and Neptune.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Pricing: In the three previous contests (defined by others) entires were often
allowed up to the end of January but still using the December 31st price.
I decided to tighten it up a bit, but not put in a firm December 31st
deadline. I do not think picking the best performing stock during the first
8 trading days of the year (2/3/4 7/8/9/10/11) will give one a significant
advantage that would hold up for an entire year.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Moderation: I deal well with numbers, not with people. I do not like the idea of
being the mediator, so arguing and name calling is strongly discouraged.
