(Indeed, in a bid that may trump Trump, a project may soon be underway to build Los Faros, an 85-floor gargantua flanked by two 75-story towers...

Even some American observers groused that the EADS offer was clearly superior to Boeing's revised bid. U.S. Senator Richard Shelby, a Republican from Alabama, said that "the Air Force...
Emily A. Hughes ’11, who brought in the top bid at $202, and also bid on a few of her friends, echoed Chi’s sentiments. “It’s a cause that really hits close to home, and it’s a fun twist on a fundraiser,” she said. “There’s a standard set of ways to raise money, and this is kind of a curveball that’s great to do once in a while...
