Romney: Salary goes to charily if elected 344-258- 375-510- at a luncheon Kidney Continued from A 1 The scheduled broadcast of "The Big Donor Show" reached the floor of parliament after a member of the governing Christian Democrats, Joop Atsma, questioned whether a public contest for a lifesaving organ would cross the boundary of merely objectionable to actually illegal. "The information I have right now tells me that the pro- "Some people will think it's tasteless, but we think the reality is even more shocking and tasteless: Waiting for an organ is just like playing the lottery," said network chairman Laurens Drillich. 16:26-minut- 344-254- recognize there are bad things that could happen, and we always have the options available to us then that we have today. ... But if there came a time when there's no reasonable probability of a success of that nature, then obviously I'd reconsider our alternatives." Romney started his day on a sour note, when a restaurant patron declared he would not vote for him because of his donate the kidney while still alive, she would be free to but called on BNN to cancel the show now that it has gained donate other organs after her death under the normal organ allotment system, said BNN spokeswoman Marieke Saly. But there's no guarantee that Lisa's choice will actually receive the organ. Plasterk said that as with any transplant, the tissues of the donor and the recipient must be compatible. "The doctors in this program can't make any concessions on that front," he said during a lively parliament debate. "So it's very possible that in practical terms, we're not talking about anything here, because it's possible this transplant can't take place," he said. Paul Beerkens, director of "The Big Donor Show" is produced by Endemol NV, which created the "Big Brother" concept in 1999 and marketed it around the world, setting off the rage of reality TV. The network identified the donor only as "Lisa" and gave no other information about her. During the show, she will gram is unfitting and unethihear interviews with the three cal, especially due to the comcandidates, their families and petitive element, but it's up to program makers to make their friends before choosing who will get her kidney. choices," responded Education Minister Ronald Plasterk.

Later in the day, Romney visited Prospect Mountain High School in Alton, near Lake Winnipesaukee, where students peppered him with a series of questions about the Iraq War, gay marriage, stem cell research and his ability to work in a bipartisan fashion. One student asked Romney which of his rivals is the big gest threat to his candidacy. "Me," he said. "I don't want to mess up in some way and knock myself off the stage." Moments later, he called Matt Lauer of NBC's "Today" show to the stage and Lauer, compiling a piece for the morning program, followed up ori a student question by asking Romney if he would still support leaving U.S. troops in Iraq if the current level of violence extends into the fall. "I don't want to forecast for anything other than success," Romney said as he stood before an enormous U.S.ilag. "I Kidney Association, welcomed the sudden attention to the problem of organ donations, faith. "I'm rnp nprcnn wVin will not vote for a Mormon," Al Michaud of Dover shouted at Romney when he approached him inside Harvey's Bakery in downtown Dover. Romney kept smiling as he asked, "Can I shake your hand anyway?" Michaud replied, "No." Michaud later told reporters he was not "a alluding to some evangelical Christians who have compared Romney's faith to a cult.

"There are about 1,500 people waiting on the list for more than four years, so something has to be done," Beerkens told AP Television News. "But let's be clear: This is not the way." Dutch TV producers have tested the limits of public good taste before. Two years ago, a private station showing a "Big Brother" series followed the pregnancy of one of the contestants, then aired the birth. Though the mother hoped to win the $540,000 top prize, she quit before the end of the show. Around the same time, BNN showed footage of their reporter snorting cocaine and then being interviewed about the experience in a talk show format. gSL LOOK WMAY'S NEW T Call 373-645- to have your classified ads in this section! 0 SUM Twh tart Construction A STAKER STAKER Cockers Screed Loans K nun Ml) tn SUPERINTENDENT for remote large jobs SCREED OPERATOR Staker Staker & Parson Co is seeking qualified Lmm urn WANT TO MAK YOU A UHU GENTRY FINANCE Bnxh statist Orem.
