Officials say sealing could finish by Sunday, while BP cites possible completion Saturday. BP and Transocean face ongoing investigations and economic fallout along the Gulf coast.

Expiring Bush era tax cuts threaten taxpayers nationwide
The Deloitte Tax LLP analysis shows a typical family of four earning 50 000 would pay 2900 more in 2011 and a 100 000 income would rise 4500. Wealthier households face larger increases with 500 000 income at 10800 and 1 million at 53200. Democrats push for middle class relief while Republicans seek full extension before November elections.
