    Go into your Excel worksheet and select the cell you want to color.
    Then go to Format | Conditional Formatting. You can specify what to do if the cell value is less than zero. Click on format, then you will see the Font, Border, and Patterns tabs. The Pattens will allow you to set the color when the value is less than zero.

      Karel, I believe a change is due... just as before, my fate is in your hands
      OK, you asked for it!

        Webs,

        You were never long SEED. On 1/25/07 you requested CMED long.

        I can sell CMED and then short SEED, and then cover SEED, and then short GES, but I don't think that those were your intentions.

        Since it is not fair to go back in time when hindsight will be on your side, I will disregard the SEED request, and process your request to short GES.

        btw: I'm not sure if any of us can catch Mimo this week.... HUUUUUUGE

          Week 9, Day 4

          Week 9 - Demolition Derby
          Day 4 - the sleepers awake

          The speedy guys in the beginning still feel the pain:


          The track still looks like this:


          But there were a few unstoppable beasts of mayhem (I think this is Mimo's):


          Mimo 100 gets a HUUUUUGE buyout, and holds first place
          DMK just got mad when he learned that he is only in second with a mighty current score
          And Riverbabe shows that chicks can stomp dirt too. She takes third place (with a remodelled Ken's Jeep that was taken from the divorce):

                Thanks for pointing out my error. It should have been:

                Price is: Above 52W High or Less Than 52W High but within 5% [. . .]

                      Week 9, Last day

                      Week 9 - Demolition Derby
                      Day 5 - lucky to be living

                      There was a feeling that this derby wasn't going to be polite. Many players were blind-sided and whipsawed, hit from behind and even in the front with the outrageous voracity of destruction. A lucky few found refuge from the carnage, but the best had an advantge that only legends understand. Their foresight and patience was the best vehicle for thier goal of a trophy this week.

                      We're all friends here, right?


                      A special trophy was made for a special player. Funny, Riverbabe's Jeep came out without a scratch and she got third place:


                      We all knew coming into this week to keep an eye out for the big guy. Well, DMK didn't disappoint and came crashing into second place with another fine pick:


                      And Mimo 100, our winner, got to all of us late in the game- timing was everything. He claims that he had trouble getting it started at the beginning. When the sudden roar of his engine was heard, it was enough to make the other cars lose their oil. Congrats Mimo, on a fine win:

                        Congrats to Mimo, DMK and River...However, I think Hooters has lowered their standards...I loved the Miami Hooter's Girls...Especially our waitress...The Vegas one's were not so hot except one of them that they had at the Hooter's BJ Tables...IIC

                        PS: Think I'll pass on the Bloomington Hooters...Of course when you're me you can afford to be picky...LOL

                          Ya, the trophy is the most impressive thing in that photo! hehe

                          But the gal in the center ain't too shabby.

                          MIMO! Wow dude, blew us all away this week. Well done!

                            Yeah...She would be my pick of the three...However, I'd like to see some better posture...STRAIGHTEN UP!!!.


                            The other two look too young to have Beer Guts forming...But then again, they are Peanut's Girls...In fact, I'm pretty sure that that is Peanut's Identical Twin Brother holding that water bottle...Or is it a Vodka bottle in disguise???

                              Congrats to Mimo, DMK and Riverbabe. After this week I think I may hop in my truck, head down to Tijuana and get myself a couple of bottles of Tequila and forget about this week. Ouch. And a personal note: No more Chinese stocks.

                              Peanuts please put me in UFPT long.
