The morning papers, reviewed

-- From the Chicago Tribune:

Target Corp. said Tuesday that earnings rose nearly 13 percent on sales of its more profitable lines of clothing and gains from its credit card unit. The Minneapolis-based retailer reported net income of $686 million, or 80 cents a share, matching Wall Street estimates.

So I guess they really hit their ... goal.

-- From Business Week:

The Upper Deck Co. on Tuesday withdrew its offer to buy rival baseball card maker The Topps Co., clearing one obstacle in the way of a proposed private equity takeover of the iconic sports memorabilia company.

Upper Deck officials blamed the failure on "gum stains."

-- From Fox News:

A new study has measured just how long cats can remember certain kinds of information — about 10 minutes.

I can has no long-term memoriez.
