Do you think there is a trend toward choosing younger CEOs, like Jeffrey Immelt, to run larger well-established corporations? I don’t think there is a single trend [except] that CEOs are in greater demand than ever before. There’s an enormous demand for top talent out there. Boards are being much less patient than they ever were before… This has sent people like us looking across the whole spectrum–young, old–wherever we can find good, solid CEO talent…...

Internet banking first appeared in the 1990s—regular, full-service banks transplanted onto the Web. Back then, however, communications weren’t speedy enough, or the advantage clear enough, to collect a crowd. Some banks failed. Others settled for small niche businesses. All that changed in 2000, with the launch of what’s known today as “direct” banking. You’re offered a limited range of low-cost, do-it-yourself financial options, available only online. ING Direct led the way, by creating a simple, high-interest savings account, with no fees and no minimum deposits, that’s federally insured....

Indiana University’s Lilly School of Philanthropy released a study on Wednesday that concluded almost a third of Asian households and 19 percent of Black households contributed to racial and social justice causes. Meanwhile, Hispanic households gave 14 percent and white households contributed 13 percent. “A lot of the attention, so far, on giving to racial, social justice has been on foundations and the corporate side, but it’s also important to realize that everyday donors — households of all different backgrounds — have been part of this,” said the associate dean for research and international programs at the Lilly School, Una Osili....

First and foremost, Falcao has only just signed for Monaco in a massive £52m move last summer. Secondly, you have to imagine he is on massive wages so if he was to entertain the idea of moving to West London he would need to take a considerable hit and pay cut! Thirdly, he would have had the choice to come here back in the summer and rejected the chance for one reason or another....

The department said the shipments from Idaho have been ongoing since 2009 and have carried enough waste to fill five Olympic-sized swimming pools. The statement also noted that most of the Idaho waste—which it described as “low level waste/mixed low level waste”—had been sent to New Mexico’s Waste Isolation Pilot Plant, though 13,625 cubic meters had been sent to the Nevada National Security Site (NNSS). The NNSS is a large chunk of land almost the size of Rhode Island that was used for nuclear detonations for over 40 years....

Devers’ ninth-inning solo home run off Yankees flamethrowing closer Aroldis Chapman on Sunday night not only tied the game at two, but came off a fastball clocked at 102.8 mph, the fastest pitch hit for a home run since MLB started tracking this stat in 2008. MORE: Inside MLB Network’s push to change baseball telecasts What made the homer even more rare was that Devers is left-handed, and Chapman had given up only one other homer to a lefty in his entire career — Luke Scott on June 26, 2011— regular or postseason, spanning 444 batters faced and 379 at-bats....

A longtime Real Madrid supporter, Nadal appeared with a Atletico Madrid jersey during the club’s Europa League match against Arsenal last week, making headlines across Spain and attracting a wave of social media reactions from fans from both teams. Nadal couldn’t avoid the issue when he arrived in the Spanish capital for this week’s Madrid Open. “Well, there is a problem with today’s society, that to be a true supporter of one team, it seems that you have to be anti another team,” Nadal said Monday....

Having met for the first time back in 2004, the pair have collided a staggering 38 times. While Federer has won the last five meetings, it is Nadal who dominates the head-to-head 23 to 15. There will always be a debate as to who is the greatest men’s singles player of the Open Era., and these two legends are always at the forefront of that debate. Here, I present five reasons why it is not Roger Federer but Rafael Nadal who holds that honour....

Defense has been the issue for the Raiders. After they got gashed by run and pass at home in Week 14’s loss to the Colts, they fired defensive coordinator Paul Guenther and replaced him with Rod Marinelli. Jon Gruden is hoping his team still has some fight late. The Chargers have struggled under coach Anthony Lynn, with more close-game woes. But they also have seen the promise of rookie quarterback Justin Herbert as the biggest bright side of their season....

Play had been scheduled to begin at 10:30 a.m. (2130 GMT) but the covers remained on the wicket block with large pools of water still evident on the outfield.
