...Detroit's strategy of focusing on its profitable lines working? Neither GM nor Chrysler is profitable yet. Going forward, however, both companies' recovery plans call for concentrating on vehicles that promise an adequate return. They will continue to focus on their profitable lines, such as Chrysler's minivans and GM's pickup trucks. But both GM and Chrysler will be adding new, small cars to their lines by 2011, as they say they will make a profit on those vehicles with rising gasoline prices...
...Hyundai's ad line - You can return your car to us if you lose your job - still moving cars? Yes.

Claiming that Zelaya had resigned, Micheletti was sworn into office hours after the elected President was flown to Costa Rica in his pajamas. Denying that he had stepped down, Zelaya said he would return to take power - to which Micheletti promised he would be arrested for treason. The ousted President said he would return home anyway, along with several other Latin American Presidents who have condemned the coup. Micheletti retorted that their plane would not be allowed to land. And then in the final...
...Adding to the drama, Zelaya gave a live interview with Latin American network Telesur as he flew over the scene, making comments that veered from the impassioned to the reckless. "What we see is a return of the right in Latin America - a more reactionary right, more prone to killing, more fascist than in the past," he said of the shooting. "I'm doing everything I can. If I had a parachute, I would immediately jump out of this plane." Afterward, stranded in El Salvador, he promised to continue his struggle but did not reveal what his next move would...
