LIFE IN THESE OLD-ECONOMY BONES YET: You probably know that International Steel Group completed its acquisition of Weirton Steel on Tuesday. And if you drive in that general vicinity, you've probably noticed that the West Side ISG mill is back in production.

With the acquisition completed, Richfield, Ohio-based ISG has moved up from the No. 2 integrated steel maker in the country to No. 1, surpassing Pittsburgh's United States Steel Corp., when measured by domestic production capacity.

Cleveland, Ohio... Steel Capital USA.
