Free Markets: William, I agree. The broader market took it on the chin today, inspite of what the DOW may have done. I believe the ratio of losers to gainers today was 4:1.

OK, let's hope: 1. the winner is VERY big 2. the winner becomes very small! 3. They don't want to sell it all at once Reuters Friday March 16 11:33 AM ET Fat Folks Seek Gold, Stardom HOUTEM, Netherlands (Reuters) - Twelve slimmers will compete to win their weight loss in gold in a new ``Big Brother''-style reality TV show to hit Dutch screens on Saturday. The makers of ``Big Diet'' hope to capitalize on the smash-hit success of the voyeuristic ``Big Brother'' by adding a new twist: a 13-week fat joke. ``Big Diet'' locks away six rotund men and six women in a castle in Houtem, near the southern Dutch city of Maastricht. They will compete to slim down as 37 cameras monitor their every move. The contestants will be fed low-calorie diets prepared by a celebrity chef, do physical workouts three times a day and sleep communally. Cameras are everywhere, except for the bathroom. Their aerobics classes and a selection of the video from the day will be shown on Dutch TV almost every day. Viewers can also follow their progress via the Internet (www.sbsnet.nl/bigdiet). The men and the women compete in same-sex teams against each other and as individuals within the teams for the chance to win as much as $400,000. After four initial weeks of sweating and starving, one person will be thrown off the show each week until only four remain. The weekly loser is the member of the weaker team who sheds the smallest percentage of his or her weight loss target. The final winner will be chosen from the two best slimmers by the audience and he or she will earn in gold the weight lost. The folks desperate enough to join this show will also be subjected to temptations, including a wall-mounted fridge full of their favorite snacks. dailynews.yahoo.com
