I would like someone to see if my income statement looks correct

I have prepared an income statement including earnings per share data, for the year ended December 31, 2008 and I would like to have someone take a look and see if I did it correctly. If it is not correct could someone help me so I know where I went wrong.

Thanks in advance.
