Wall Street's Inner Sanctum
Once during the roaring '90s, I was ushered into the high temple of Wall Street. You might be thinking Goldman Sachs, but its headquarters are near, but not on, Wall Street. The high temple of Wall Street is the big church that presides over the street's high end, Trinity.
I was interviewing the Rev. Dan Matthews, the Episcopal priest who was, at the time, rector of Trinity. The topic was what we then called "socially responsible investment," a way to apply an investor's personal values to a portfolio. Trinity owns a lot of Manhattan real estate and I was curious if the parish screens its massive portfolio to be sure it doesn't own securities in companies that do things the church finds morally repugnant.
Not really, came the answer. Matthews told me that his board of directors consisted of captains of Wall Street, and, try as he might, he could never get his vestry to agree on good versus bad companies (beyond their capacities to generate future profits). There was a strong view that it was the board's fiduciary responsibility to make sure the church's portfolio generated the best return. It was the job of priests and parishioners to then decide what good works could be done with the proceeds.
That was 18 years ago, and the movement has come a long, long way. Many practitioners have taken the word "social" out of the acronym; it's still SRI, but Socially Responsible Investing now stands for Sustainable, Responsible, Impact investing. It involves much more than screening out companies that do stuff you don't like (like despoiling the Earth). It can also mean rewarding companies that do better than their peers to address social ills as you, the investor, see them. SRI is also about shareholder engagement. Investors are part-owners of companies and can band together to pressure management to clean up its act.
All those years ago, SRI might have come off as hippie investing money management for the granola set. Now, it's very big business, with some of the largest investment companies in the world prepared to screen portfolios.
It may be that this month SRI reached a new milestone: a high-level call for governments to help with this movement. Some of the most powerful people in the world have, in essence, endorsed what they label as Impact Investing. British Prime Minister David Cameron, as then-head of the Group of Eight club of nations, had called for a committee to be pulled together on the subject. The U.S., Canada, Britain, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Australia and the European Union delegated one senior official and one prominent figure from the private sector to the group. Their mission: to figure out ways to take Impact Investing to the next level, so it can do even more to make the world a better place. The project grew out of the sense that persists after the great financial collapse of 2008 that the world of finance needs to "build a health society rather than endanger it."
You've heard of the "invisible hand"? The group has just released a report calling "Impact Investing" the "invisible heart" of markets. I spoke with Matthew Bishop, New York Bureau Chief for The Economist magazine, who served as the fancy group's reporter. He said the group embraced the notion of "three-dimensional investing," adding social and environmental impact to the usual elements of risk and reward. He is also excited about new ways of measuring the effects of impact investing.
What's next? The report argues that it is now time for governments to play a key role in markets that make the world healthier by making sure that regulations aren't a stumbling block for these social innovations. Government can also make sure that when it spends its big money, it does its part to demand the similar kinds of social returns that investors may increasingly ask of their portfolios.
PODCAST: The strength of the Indian-American community
First up, the federal government has been accused of not aggressively going after individuals who had a part in the financial crisis. Today, it's the federal government being sued in a federal court over its bailout of the insurance giant American International Group. A former CEO of AIG thinks the bailout cheated him and shareholders. And India's Prime Minister Narendra Modi is in the U.S. right now. He'll meet with President Obama today, but he also appeared before a sold-out crowd of 20,000 at Madison Square Garden in New York this weekend, which speaks in part to the strength of the Indian-American community. Plus, let's check the ingredients list for the recipe here: A cup and a half of Big Data, stir in an algorithm, heat in a saucepan before sprinkling in the apps. Venture Capitalists believe the food industry is next in line for disruption, and tech startups have some ideas.
How techies are reenvisioning restaurants
In San Francisco, you can see the future of restaurants ... or at least as it's envisioned by the techies. And no surprise, that dining experience starts with an app.
You didn't bring your lunch and you don't have time to go out? Go to your iPhone, look for your favorite restaurant app, and click on the photo of the lunch you want. While they can't quite zap it to you yet, they're working on it.
"Ah, here we go. An order, it just popped up on my app!" says Cayden Berkmoyer, a driver at Sprig, one of the many food tech startups popping up in San Francisco. We're in his car, and in the backseat is a big bag full of assorted boxed lunches. Here's how Sprig works: When you place an order, an algorithm sends it to the nearest driver.
"The order is for Tanya," Berkmoyer says, reading off his app — she ordered a kale granola salad. With that, he starts his car and is on his way.
Sprig is like a San Francisco–style restaurant, only on wheels. Lunch is $9, and the food is mostly organic, the meat hormone-free. The startup won't say if it's profitable or how many meals it serves a day. But it's looking to expand into more cities, says Nate Keller, Sprig's executive chef.
"Sprig is a company whose mission is to bring healthy food to the masses," Keller says.
And Sprig thinks it can do this by using technology, which will cut out waste and allow it to compete with big restaurants on price while still offering healthier options.
Kent Bennett with Bessemer Venture Partners says, in the past, tech investors stayed away from food.
"The challenges are immense," he says. "Most of the companies we invest in move ones and zeros around, and food tech companies, you're moving heirloom tomatoes around. You know, they start to rot the second they come off the vine."
And rotting food, a big problem in the restaurant industry, is money down the drain. But Bennett says with the tech boom, investors are giving food another look.
"This is a trillion-dollar market. There's no category of software that even begins to approach that number," Bennett says. "And there's a lot of pain in the food space, whether it's health and wellness or affordability."
And Bennett says venture capitalists are betting that startups can use mobile computing and big data to take away some of the pain, and take on traditional food companies.
Artistic inspiration or piracy?
Jeff Koons' retrospective show at the Whitney Museum of Art is a grand testimonial to his work over the decades. It is also "a time capsule for copyright law," says Andrew Gilden, teaching fellow at Stanford University Law School.
Standing in front of a sculpture of an elderly couple holding eight blue, adorable puppies entitled "String of Puppies," Gilden points out that Koons was sued in 1992 over this very sculpture. The artist had re-created a photograph taken by photographer Art Rogers and, juxtaposing it with other sculptures in his series, was trying to comment on the banality of the images we are bombarded with in daily life. Rogers sued, alleging that Koons' sculpture amounted to stealing.
Koons lost.
"The court looked at the sculpture, looked at the photo, and said they're similar, it's piracy," says Gilden. "Doesn't matter if he had some grander purpose."
Back in 1992, "the court hated his work," says Amy Adler, professor of law at NYU. "They saw him as involved in the business of art, saw him as a pirate, talked about how much money he made from the work, and he lost rather spectacularly." Koons had to settle two other lawsuits on similar grounds.
Fast forward to 2006, Koons was sued yet again for using another artist's work, this time in a collage.
Koons won.
What changed?
The Supreme Court intervened in 1994 to say it's OK to copy art if the new work is "transformative."
"Does the work have a new purpose or character, has it altered the previous work with new meaning or message?" says Adler. "Whether the new work was transformative is the key to the test."
Other considerations still listed in the 1976 copyright law receded in importance. These included the effect of the copying on a potential market for (or value of) the copyrighted work, and the extent, the nature and the purpose of the copying.
This, argues Gilden, has created a problem.
"This shift in fair use has predominantly protected big name defendants who appropriate from small name artists." Gilden says in most visual art copyright cases in the past 10 years, the wealthier more famous artist has won. They've won defending against claims they copied someone else's work, and they've won pursuing others for copying their work. Gilden argues this is because courts, like people, think of famous and non-famous art differently.
"We have a hard time thinking of prominent artistic works as being raw, as being the building blocks for something better."
While cases like those of Jeff Koons or Richard Prince "might seem to open up the doors to more sharing and accommodation of sharing, copying, appropriation art, it does not," says Gilden. The law around fair use is still vague, and the expense of challenging if one is found guilty of copying is immense. And, adds Gilden, "Other less prominent artists have lost in situations similar to Koons'."
William Fisher, who teaches Intellectual Property law at Harvard Law School, offers another explanation for the disproportionate success of the wealthy and famous: "Wealthy artists are much more likely to be sued than poorer artists because they have deeper pockets." On the other hand, "Other features of copyright law do unfortunately bias the system in favor of more wealthy and sophisticated defendant artists."
First off, he says, "The unpredictability of the fair use system means you have to hire a lawyer in order to mount a defense, and lawyers are expensive." The federal litigation system also now gives plaintiffs the opportunity to conduct very expensive discovery in the course of litigation, "which is financially burdensome for anyone." Lastly, remedies and damages, if one loses a copyright case, can be immense.
The unpredictability of copyright cases is one of Adler's primary criticisms: "One of the worries that I think we should all have about the extremely chaotic and uncertain area of fair use law is it will force artists to steer clear of engaging in work they should otherwise be able to do for fear of getting sued, and that applies to all artists rich or poor."
ATM fees continue to rise
Using the ATM can be convenient, and banking industry consultant Bert Ely says that when it comes to out-of-network fees, ease is where the problem begins.
"First of all, ATM machines are getting more sophisticated," he says.
According to Ely, maintaining and upgrading ATMs to handle fancy new features, like video tellers, costs banks a lot of money. Meanwhile, low interest rates have kept profits down.
"So, they look elsewhere for income," he says.
They look, for instance, to out-of-network ATM fees. A new study from Bankrate.com and data from other research shows average out-of-network fees are up between 2.5 and 5 percent over last year. So while your bank might not be charging you, it's instead slapping customers from other banks with fees when they use its ATMs.
"The reality is it's better for them to charge other banks' customers, than their own more," says Jim Miller, senior director of banking with market research company J.D. Power.
Miller says that unlike with overdraft fees, at least using another bank's ATM is a choice — albeit, an expensive one.
So where are you likeliest to pay the most? Here are the five cities that have the highest ATM fees, on average:

Modi visit throws spotlight on Indian-Americans
India's prime minister, Narendra Modi, is currently visiting the U.S. He'll meet with President Obama Monday, but he also appeared before a sold-out crowd of nearly 20,000 people at Madison Square Garden in New York on Sunday, which speaks in part to the strength and enthusiasm of the Indian-American community.
Officially, there are more than 3 million Indian-Americans in the U.S. and — as a group — they've been largely successful.
Their median household income is roughly $100,000 — about double that of the rest of the population — according to 2013 American Community Survey data from the U.S. Census Bureau.
"Part of this comes down to education," says Milan Vaishnav, an associate in the South Asia Program with the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace. "I think nearly three-quarters of Indians who are coming to the United States already had a bachelor's degree," he says.
Many gain access to the U.S. on skills-based visas and enter fields like software, engineering, medicine, and finance.
Not all support Modi politically, but the visit is a chance to express national pride, says Vaishnav.
Over the last decade, Indian-Americans have become increasingly politically active, says John Echeverri-Gent, a professor at the University of Virginia.
"This is a group that in terms of its political lobby is really coming of age," he says. In particular, Indian-Americans are increased in pushing for stronger ties between the U.S. and their home country, as well as immigration reform.
But Indian-Americans should not be seen as a monolith, says Suman Raghunathan, the executive director of South Asian Americans Leading Together.
"Part of what the per capita numbers don't fully portray is the incredible economic and socioeconomic diversity we see in the Indian-American population," she explains, noting an increasing number of Indians in the U.S. who are undocumented or are here on temporary visas.
Obama: U.S. Underestimated ISIS, Overestimated Iraqi Army

Ok, so push-ups may not be the newest or most creative exercise known to man, but the reality is this no equipment necessary exercise is tried and true when it comes to strengthening the chest, shoulders, arms, and core. The key to success in this exercise is correct form and also selecting a variation that is best suited for your current ability level. In doing so you will be able to complete this exercise both safely and effectively.
What are my options?
A great beginner level option to start with is the bent knee push-up. This variation allows you the opportunity to become more familiar with proper technique while still reaping the same muscle strengthening benefits as the traditional version of the exercise. If you notice any discomfort in the wrists you may opt to use dumbbells or grip handles instead of placing hands directly on the floor when completing this exercise in order to reduce the amount of stress being placed on the joints. Another great option that also helps to reduce joint strain is wall push-ups, which are completed in a standing position.
As you develop strength and become more comfortable with the mechanics of the above mentioned variations you may choose then to progress to the full version of the push-up, as detailed in the video below.
For those looking for an increased challenge and twist on the traditional push-up, trying adding a single-leg raise to the exercise or perhaps considering incorporating a portable piece of equipment, such as a stability ball, TRX or Perfect Pushup.
If you found this to be article useful to you or someone else, please share it with your friends!

Seedorf lauds Milan's improvement, remains optimistic about second leg at Atlético
Feb 19, 2014, 9:51 PM EST
Within the context of a disappointing 2013-14 season, Milan's performance on Wednesday against Atlético Madrid was a small ray of sunshine, even if the Rossoneri left the San Siro down 1-0 in the teams' UEFA Champions LeagueRound of 16 matchup. Particularly in the middle of the first half, Milan played as well as they have all season, generating two near-goals for Kaká and another for Andrea Poli. While a 83rd minute winner from Diego Costa meant the day was ultimately an unsuccessful one, the performance highlighted the slow progress the team has been able to make under Clarence Seedorf.
"I think everybody saw what my players did tonight, and I am proud of what they did, really," Seedorf said after his first Champions League match as a head coach (as relayed by UEFA.com). "In the last 20 minutes we were tired and we were also a bit unlucky with their goal, I have to say … It will be tough in the return leg, I know, but I also remember I have had some fun in that stadium."
A four-time Champions League winner as a player, Seedorf was hired to replace former Milan boss Max Allegri on Jan. 16, lifting some fans' hopes that a disappointing season could still see Milan do some damage in Champions League. Although Wednesday's result means that's now less likely, the performance showed the Rossoneri have become a more capable side than the one Seedorf inherited last month.
"My players are trying to improve, they are working hard, and I see the team spirit growing," Seedorf said after his first Champions League game as a head coach. "My past experience tells me that team spirit can make you go far in the competition."
As Wednesday showed, it will take more than team spirit to oust the favored Atlético, but given three more weeks to help his players adjust to a new system (as well as each other), Milan may be even stronger when the teams take the field at the Vicente Calderón.
"Balotelli is improving match by match but it takes time for strikers to adapt to each other," Seedorf explained. "They have not played many games together."
Between Wednesday and Milan's visit to Madrid, Seedorf's team will get three chances to improve that familiarity: league matches against Sampdoria, Juventus, and Udinese. On Mar. 11, they try to turn around their one-goal deficit at the Calderón.

Verdict in medical staff's case on October 1
Nine defendants acquitted in June ruling as sentences were reduced
Bahrain's Cassation court on Monday said that it would deliver its verdict in the case of the doctors who have challenged a Court of Appeals ruling on October 1.
In June, the court acquitted nine of the 20 health professionals on trial and sentenced the others to terms between one month and five years.
The Court of Appeals, reviewing last year's rulings that ranged between five and 15 years, sentenced Ali Al Ekri to five years and Ebrahim Al Demistani to three years.
Seven medical staff who were also arrested in March and April 2011 were sentenced to shorter prison terms that did not exceed one year while nine others were acquitted. Two of the defendants were tried in absentia.
Six medical staff took their case to the Cassation court.

Crispy Hash Breakfast Skillet.
Super simple one pan breakfast prepared in a skillet. This gluten free brunch dish starts with super crispy shredded hash browns, peppers, some bacon, and is finished off with eggs and melty cheese.
I take my shredded hash browns very seriously. Preferably made from scratch and not from shredded potatoes out of a bag from the freezer aisle. Extremely crispy on the outside, pillowy soft in the center. Golden brown and always with ketchup on the side.
You might say I'm a hash brown snob. And you're completely right.
I've learned a few tricks over my shredded hash brown perfecting years, and if you want the CRISP of the crispiest hash browns ever with today's breakfast skillet recipe, listen up:

Mike Babcock's lucky red silk McGill tie is sold out
The red silk necktie worn by Canada's hockey coach Mike Babcock even has its own Facebook page.
|Report an Error
Share via Email
It's called the Babcock now.
The red silk necktie worn by coach Mike Babcock Sunday – when the Canada's Olympic men's hockey team beat the U.S. winning gold in nailbiting overtime – has captured attention throughout the Games.
By Tuesday the tie, with its conservative diagonal stripes and McGill University shields, was sold out.
Babcock, an alumnus of McGill University, has said many times that the tie brings him luck.
It even has its own Facebook page: Mike Babcock's McGill Tie, which has roughly 1,000 fans, more than the coach himself.
McGill University's Lawrence Marzette has been shocked by the reaction.
"In a good month we might sell two ties," said Marzette, manager of the University's bookshop, which sells McGill-branded merchandise.
But within hours of the historic hockey win, the shop sold 90 ties at $49.99 apiece to buyers across Canada and the U.S. Now there's a waiting list to buy it.
Marzette says all he can do is promise that the tie, now being referred to as the Babcock, will be delivered in a few weeks.
Ryan Richards of Braemore Neckwear in Toronto, the maker of the tie, says he's already asked his plants in Italy to weave more of the fabric – pronto. "I hope we can get the fabric within two weeks and we'll put a rush on it at our plant here," he says.
Unlike Hudson Bay Company's red Olympic mittens, whose popularity grew in the months leading up the Vancouver Games, sales of the Babcock hit hard and fast on Monday morning.
Marzette says it's hard to know if consumers are buying into the look or the luck of the famous tie.
Babcock, who has coached the Detroit Red Wings to a Stanley Cup championship, has acknowledged there may be a connection between his tie and the success of his players.
He was not wearing the McGill tie when Canada lost to the U.S. 5-3 in the Feb. 21 Olympic hockey match.
But when the gold medal was at stake, Babcock didn't taking any chances: he wore the tie.
Babcock's father doesn't think Team Canada's victory had anything to do with a tie – or luck, for that matter.
"I think it's all achieved," said Mike Sr. "I don't think it's like flipping a coin."
Nonetheless, he said his son takes every opportunity to celebrate McGill.
"He's very proud to be a McGill alumni," he said. "He flaunts his alumni quite a bit, as you're well aware, or he wouldn't have worn (the tie) to the gold medal game of the best game in the world."

The recent rash of injuries that have plagued the UFC have made the fighters already under contract that much more important.
So with that the UFC has started to re-up with some of their fighters, placing them under new fight deals as old ones expire.
MMAWeekly.com first reported that bantamweight star Michael McDonald had signed a new 4-fight deal recently, and now to more fighters have upped their contracts as well.
Despite a 1-3 record over his last four fights, Brazilian Luiz Cane continues to be an exciting fighter inside the Octagon and the promotion has rewarded him with a new four fight contract with the UFC.
Cane made the announcement via his Twitter page on Friday.
"I just signed a 4 fight contract extension with the UFC," wrote Cane. "Thank you God for one more blessing in my life!"
In addition to Cane signing a new deal, UFC middleweight Tom Lawlor also put pen to paper on a new 4-fight deal of his own.
Lawlor confirmed his signing to MixedMartialArts.com on Thursday.
Currently, neither Cane or Lawlor are signed for their next bouts, but with new contracts in hand it appears both are sticking around the UFC for the foreseeable future.

Atlanta tough guy Eric Boulton has been suspended indefinitely by the NHL for his elbow to the head of Tampa rookie Paul Ranger, the latest blow to a Thrashers team unravelling early this season. Colin Campbell, the NHL's executive vice-president and the man charged with handing out discipline, will meet Boulton on Monday to determine how many games his suspension will be.

Gazette opinion: Stand up for equal rights, City Council members
Over the past few months dozens of people in Billings and beyond have commented on our Opinion pages about the consideration of a nondiscrimination ordinance for our city. Some letter-to-the-editor writers have complained that they are unable to find a copy of this NDO.
City turns on the spigot for higher water, wastewater rates
Most Billings residents will see increases in their water and wastewater rates beginning July 1. Most increases will be modest, but a few will be more substantial.
Billings residents lobby for, against still-unwritten nondiscrimination ordinance
On the night the Bozeman City Commission unanimously approved first reading of a nondiscrimination ordinance, people on both sides got a head start testifying before the Billings City Council on Monday.
Gazette opinion: Thanks to city's elected representatives
When Ed Ulledalen, Jim Ronquillo and Mark Astle first joined the Billings City Council, the city had fewer than 100,000 residents.

CACI troubles?
Two defense contractors best known for their work in information technology are ensnared by the growing scandal about alleged atrocities at Iraqi prisons.
CACI International Inc. and Titan Corp. were mentioned in a February report written by an Army two-star general who investigated U.S. troops' abuse of Iraqi prisoners at the Abu Ghraib prison. The 53-page document called for the company to reprimand or fire two CACI employees because of their physical abuse of detainees.
CACI officials must act fast and fire any employees involved with the prisoner abuse scandal in Iraq if the company wants to preserve its vital military business, according to an industry official who follows government vendors.
"If these allegations are true, ultimately it would cast a very bad mark on CACI," the industry official said.
The company, based in Arlington, Va., posted fiscal 2003 revenue of $843 million last June, of which $536 million came from the Defense Department. DOD business accounted for 64 percent of its revenue last year, according to an Aug. 13 company statement. Furthermore, the company recently agreed to buy the defense and intelligence business from American Management Systems Inc.
The Army report was first mentioned in last week's issue of The New Yorker magazine.
CACI officials said in a May 3 statement that one of the people cited in the story "is not and never has been a CACI employee." CACI chairman, president and chief executive officer Jack London said in the statement: "In the event there is wrongdoing on the part of any CACI employee, we will take swift action to correct it immediately, but at this time we have no information from the U.S. government of any violations or wrongful behavior."
Meanwhile, Titan spokesman Wil Williams said Titan does not have any contracts that provide services for interrogation or physical keeping of prisoners.
Titan does have a contract to provide linguistic services that include translation services, he said.
Williams added that Titan has not been informed by the government of any wrongdoing and that the two people in question have not been charged with any crime.
One Titan insider, however, said that apparently the Titan employee was a witness to the abuse and that person provided officials with detailed information about what happened.
Stay tuned, no doubt.
A Canadian IMPASS
The Navy plans to award an exclusive license to Metocean Data Systems Ltd. that will allow service gunners to test weapons without going to a firing range.
The Nova Scotia, Canada, company developed the Integrated Maritime Portable Acoustic Scoring and Simulator (IMPASS), a system of buoys equipped with Global Positioning System and acoustic sensors. It works by triangulating the location of weapon impacts in relation to the firing vessel. The system then sends the data back to the ship, where a controller can display
the impressions of the ammunition rounds.
IMPASS will let the Navy avoid Vieques Island situations. After residents of Puerto Rico protested the island firing range because of potential environmental and health problems, the service closed the training site.
Perhaps the Canadians thought the Navy could turn Prince Edward Island into a viable alternative, eh?
