Fed holds stimulus as unemployment falls
The Federal Reserve cautioned it is not ready to end its bond buying and kept short term rates at record lows until unemployment improves beyond 6.5 percent. Chairman Bernanke said the rate hike would not be a trigger, and bond purchases of 85 billion dollars monthly may vary with job market progress. Unemployment sits at 7.7 percent amid signs of a healthier economy.

Spokeswoman Lara Mahoney said employees were told to stay home starting Monday while awaiting a needed part.

Frackers and Greens Back Tough New Standards
Major oil and gas firms and environmental groups back a voluntary set of fracking standards in the Northeast modeled on a review system. The Pittsburgh Center for Sustainable Shale Development will rate companies on air and water protections, with potential easing of regulatory battles and faster drilling expansion. Participants include Shell, Chevron, EQT, Consol Energy, the Environmental Defense Fund, and others, aiming to curb methane emissions, flaring, wastewater disposal, and seismic monitoring before drilling.
