NEW YORK (AP) _ Russian telecommunications provider Vimpel Communications on Thursday reported its earnings and revenue grew in the second quarter.

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) _ Del Monte Foods Co. said Thursday it swung to a fiscal first-quarter loss as costs of ingredients and raw products climbed faster than the company could raise prices on its products.
