Prices, sales up for AK Steel in 4Q
Fourth-quarter sales jumped for AK Steel Corp., despite continually rising prices, the company reported Tuesday. AK Steel's net income surged to $107 million, or 95 cents per share, in the fourth quarter as sales rose 7 percent to $1.69 billion, compared to the fourth quarter of 2006. The company had reported a net loss of $49 million, or 45 cents per share, in the same quarter a year earlier, reflecting a non-cash charge related to postretirement benefits. The Wall Street consensus estimate was for earnings per share of 59 cents, and sales of $1.68 billion. The company shipped 1.57 million tons in the latest quarter, up 3 percent from the 2006 period. The average selling price per ton was 4 percent higher at $1,079. Excluding a pretax charge in the 2006 period of $133 million related to retiree health care benefit plans, operating profit tripled to $154 million and operating profit per ton nearly tripled to $98 versus $34 per ton in the 2006 period.
Brown feels heat as Libdems and Tories seek answer to West Lothian ...
Mr Huhne's intervention came days after Sir Malcolm Rifkind, the Tory former Scottish secretary, reignited the debate over the constitution by up-dating his calls for the creation of an English grand committee to deal with exclusively English matters at Westminster. Although Mr Huhne's ideas differ from Sir Malcolm's in that they rest on substantial further reform, including the introduction of proportional voting for elections to the Commons, the move further increased the pressure on Mr Brown. Mr Huhne said there should be "English votes on English laws" as part of a new constitution, but he accused the Tories of proposing "self-serving" reforms. He cited the dilemma first outlined by Mr Dalyell in 1977, when the first plans for devolution were being taken through the Commons by John Smith, the then Labour minister for devolution.
Shocker: Britney and Her Nipples Do the Right Thing
I don't know who I am anymore. Well, since Britney showed up and actually stayed for her deposition (arrived at 10:40 a.m. and left at 1:20 p.m.) without freaking out and there were no hostages taken, no police, ambulances or fire trucks on the scene I think it's pointless to wonder why she showed up not wearing a bra. I mean, what's a little nipple compared to the enormous achievement of actually doing something she had to do, for once. I won't go as far as to say that this is actually proof of the fact that she wants her kids back no, if I were to be really cold, cruel and realistic right about now I'd say she did this on a whim. It could just as easily have been the other way around she could have chosen to go have lunch or drive through L.A. once again, in Britney's world nothing is planned and everything is left to chance and to what she feels at a given time.
McLean's wife stays on the move, lawyer says
In affidavits filed in Knox County Fourth Circuit Court, Eric McLean and his divorce attorney, Steve Sharp, allege former West High School student teacher Erin McLean is embarked on a rootless existence with a 19-year-old paramour. "(Erin McLean) has been to California and then to Austin, Texas, staying in cheap motels and then moving when she is unable to pay the bills," Sharp wrote. Attorney Bruce Poston, who is defending Eric McLean on charges that he killed Sean Powell, his wife's teenage student and lover, in March, said Tuesday Erin McLean has since surfaced in Boulder, Colo. Sharp has been trying to serve Erin McLean with divorce papers since September to no avail in an effort to gain custody of the couple's sons, ages 11 and 8. It was then that Erin McLean fled her mother's Nashville home with the boys after news surfaced that she had lied to get a job as a teacher at a private Christian school and allegedly tried to seduce a 17-year-old student.

The list is impressive, if not for the names, but for the fact that most of the rich families donate through their foundations. I wonder how many of their grassroots supporters have foundations? Along with the Alliance's long overdue financial disclosure this week, came stupefying political analysis by the head guy, Chuck Vinick, that the election of Deval Patrick had nothing to do with his (the latter's) support of Cape Wind, notwithstanding the fact that Patrick out-polled opponents of the project from both parties, in both the primary and the general, on Cape Cod as well as statewide. He sounded as if Deval Patrick would have been his candidate of choice too, if, of course, it wasn't for his, the latter's, embrace of the wind farm. That is if Vinick actually voted here. Vinick's financial contributions in the Governor's race, to Christy Mihos, and Tom Reilly before that, has his home address listed as Santa Barbara, California.
