...Microsoft may forge a partnership with Yahoo! and there may be some benefit in the No.2 and No.3 companies in the search engine business teaming up to take on Google. But, Yahoo! is a fairly weak operation, which means it is not an ideal partner...
...companies, though, are seeing the same benefit. As a recent Merrill Lynch report pointed out, when companies with lower credit ratings are going to issue debt, they're still paying up. Bonds that fall in the lowest category that still manage to be considered "investment grade" are yielding 5.3 percentage points more than government bonds. That's down from a high spread of 6.2 but still far above the 22-year average of 2.2 points. High-yield bonds, which are even riskier, are at a spread of 15.2.

Environmentalists would also prefer to have federal legislation that puts in place permanent rules governing the emission of carbon rather than leaving that decision up to whoever is in the White...
...instead of attempting to remove the children, most efforts in Latin America today focus on improving in-prison services that benefit both parent and child, like constructing day care centers in or near the facilities and providing inmates with good-parenting workshops. The plight of these children, however, doesn't seem to be high on any relief organizations' list. Save the Children runs programs for the 200 children inside Bolivia's San Pedro men's prison, but that's the extent of its work in Latin America. CARE does not deal directly with this population, and various United Nations agencies...
