Together, they will still have all those things, plus the added nightmare of integrating them. Separately, Yahoo! and Microsoft are Goliaths. Together, they will be ... an even bigger Goliath.

Had it been, construction time could have been halved and costs chopped by as much as 40%. "The economics are compelling," says Verbus company director Paul Rollett. "This is a step change in how to do these things." Travelodge certainly...
...goes forward with a growing financial advantage, having raised $32 million in January - largely from small donors who can be tapped again - which was more than twice as much as Clinton's $13.5 million take.
