                                      from the fishbowl: Heike is banished after link
 to hate group emerges.
 HER 
                                      BOWLMATES know Heike 
                                      as a sullen, authoritarian yet strangely 
                                      charismatic foreigner. Last week, the outside 
                                      world learned that she has links to one 
                                      of Europes most controversial ultra-right 
                                      politicians. The bottom line: Heike may 
                                      think she's a member of the master race, 
                                      but thanks to 50% of online voters, she 
                                      wont be winning the Big Brother race 
                                      for half a million dollars.
 Read on to see what happened in the fishbowl 
                                      last week, then watch 
                                      the all-new video of Heather being 
                                      sent home in a way she didnt quite 
                                      expect.

                                    The morning afterThe day after Heathers 
                                    banishment was a somber one for the 
                                    Bowl Guests. Ralph 
                                    was unusually silent and introspective, only 
                                    devoting one hour to listing his ex-wifes 
                                    failings, Heike muttered something about the 
                                    survival of the fittest, Cindy 
                                    seemed bemused, and Carassius 
                                    said Heathers greatest loss was that 
                                    she would never experience "slapping 
                                    scales" with him. At dinner, no one said 
                                    grace, but Heike refused to allow anyone to 
                                    eat until she had said, "Ja, you can 
                                    eat."
 
 
 
 7/14 Cindy wins a challenge
 Big Brother challenged the Bowl Guests 
                                    to a staring contest. One by one the fish 
                                    gave in to the unblinking eye of the camera, 
                                    except for Cindy, who stared until her own 
                                    eye turned gray and fell out. The Big Brother 
                                    cameraman quit his job at that point, and 
                                    Cindy was declared the victor. As a prize, 
                                    the Bowl Guests were given extra food and 
                                    access to a clock, but Cindy refrained from 
                                    bragging.
 
 
 
 7/16 Fun day, Fun day
 Everyone was in good spirits this morning, 
                                    so Ralph suggested a game of Marco Polo and 
                                    in no time the fish were splashing around, 
                                    yelling "Marco" and "Polo" 
                                    until Cindy was tagged, at which point the 
                                    game ended. Then Carassius suggested a game 
                                    of spin the bottle. Ralph said he was "too 
                                    old for such foolishness" and Heike said 
                                    she wouldnt kiss Carassius because he 
                                    "isnt my race
I mean, type."
 
 Who is Heikes type? Outside the bowl, 
                                    newspapers reported that Heike actually goes 
                                    by the name Goebbels von Himmler-Eichmann 
                                    and had acted as an organizer for Austrian 
                                    politician Jorg Haider. The producers of Big 
                                    Brother issued a statement saying that they 
                                    were unaware of Heikes background and 
                                    "would not tolerate hate speech on the 
                                    program, no matter how much it would help 
                                    our plummeting ratings."

 Big Brother called Carassius into confession 
                                    and asked him why he hadn't yet told the other 
                                    fish about his HIV status. After blowing a 
                                    few bubbles, Carassius admitted he was not 
                                    HIV positivehe just said that to get 
                                    on the show. To placate Big Brother, Carassius 
                                    promised to tell the others he had a terrible 
                                    cold sore and dandruff.
 
 
 
 7/18 Killer friendship
 Away from the others, Ralph approached 
                                    Cindy and Big Brother recorded the following 
                                    shocking conversation:
 
  
                                      Ralph: 
                                        Cindy, you're so quiet, I feel like I 
                                        can tell you anything.Cindy: (quiet)
 Ralph: (crying) Several years ago 
                                        I killed my best friend.
 Cindy: (rolls over)
 Ralph: No, no. It was a hunting 
                                        accident. We were out hunting and I accidentally 
                                        choked him to death while yelling, "why 
                                        did you sleep with my wife, you bastard?!"
 Cindy: (floats toward surface)
 Ralph: Thanks for listening. Please 
                                        don't tell the others.

 Heike's last words: "I learned a 
                                    lot about myself and I intend to learn more,
