Eén van de hardnekkige misverstanden die er nog steeds bestaat over 1788, de aankomst van de First Fleet, is dat First Nations mensen het land gewoon zonder worsteling aan de witte kolonisten overdroegen. Maar dat is dus niet zo, zo vertelt historica Ingeborg van Teeseling in een nieuwe aflevering van 'Australië tot nu toe'. Ze vertelt het verhaal van het Indigenous verzet aan de hand van enkele belangrijke namen: Pemulwuy, Truganini, Yagan en Dundalli.

According to the Global Impact Investing Network, 95% of impact investors report that their financial returns are in-line or in excess of their expectations. Find out more about what conscious investing looks like in this week's episode, featuring Jessica Droste Yagan, the CEO of Impact Engine. Impact Engine is an investment firm that manages funds to invest in for-profit, positive-impact businesses. Previously, Jessica led the creation of sustainable supply chains for McDonald's. She serves on a number of Boards of socially-oriented companies and nonprofits in the Chicago area, and has committed her personal portfolio to impact investments."Capitalism has created a beautiful, elegant system. It brings together people, and it's had positive impacts in the world. But all we demand of our system is profit and money, supply and demand," says Jessica. "The heart of capitalism can work for many different dimensions, and we're really starting to see it. As investors we can say: yes, I want to make money, but I demand that you do it in a way that's aligned with my values or that is solving an important problem."For more on the podcast, see the Beyond Capital Podcast website.

Prior to OKCupid Sam Yagan sold SparkNotes in a multimillion dollar deal. By age 25, he was garnering national coverage as the president of eDonkey, a peer-to-peer file-sharing network with more than 2 million users. This time, he is making a foray into the world of online dating. To compete against such established players as eHarmony and Match .com, which charge fees to customers, OkCupid's gimmick is simple: It's free. (The firm makes money by selling advertising on the site). The site is designed to be a social environment that allows users to create their own quizzes with individualized, pinpoint questions like "How much of a Red Sox fan are you?" or "If you were a 'Lost' character, which one would you be?" OkCupid boasts more than 420,000 "active users," defined as users who have logged on in the past eight weeks. There are 40,000 active users in the Boston area, according to Yagan. Now, Yagan is hoping that lightning will strike a second time. When they built SparkNotes as a free online site, he and his partners capitalized on what they saw as a weakness in a big rival, Cliffs- Notes. They concluded, Yagan says, "If you put free and better together, you can build something powerful." He sees OkCupid as another test of that proposition.
