Few on The Street have likely heard of a Danish hedge fund called Allmän tilläggspension. They may want to learn about it though, since its 2011 returns probably beat most of theirs. ATP, as it is known, is actually the Danish national pension fund (officially "general supplementary pension"). But it basically operates like a hedge fund — a really successful one, at that.

Will the new Consumer Protection Bureau really matter?
All the fuss over who should head the federal government's new Consumer Financial Protection Bureau is a lot more interesting than the details of what the agency is likely to do. Will the president tap Harvard University law professor Elizabeth Warren, a live wire who the banking industry fears? Will he go with a blander choice? Will it matter?

Bird-botts to Bird-botts's feed, Environment The solar power compromise: Sacrificing desert to save the Earth - latimes.com - http://www.latimes.com/news... 4 hours ago from Bookmarklet - Comment - Like Bunneh Botts and Anne Bouey liked this "Reporting from Ivanpah Valley, Calif.— Construction cranes rise like storks 40 stories above the Mojave Desert. In their midst, the "power tower" emerges, wrapped in scaffolding and looking like a multistage rocket. Clustered nearby are hangar-sized assembly buildings, looming berms of sand and a chain mail of fencing that will enclose more than 3,500 acres of public land. Moorings for 173,500 mirrors — each the size of a garage door — are spiked into the desert floor. Before the end of the year, they will become six square miles of gleaming reflectors, sweeping from Interstate 15 to the Clark Mountains along California's eastern border. BrightSource Energy's Ivanpah solar power project will soon be a humming city with 24-hour lighting, a wastewater processing facility and a gas-fired power plant. To make room, BrightSource has mowed down a swath of desert plants, displaced dozens of animal species and relocated scores of imperiled desert tortoises, a move that some experts say could kill up to a third of them. Despite its behemoth footprint, the Ivanpah project has slipped easily into place, unencumbered by lasting legal opposition or public outcry from California's boisterous environmental community. The public got its chance to comment at scores of open houses, but the real political horse trading took place in meetings involving solar developers, federal regulators and leaders of some of the nation's top environmental organizations. Away from public scrutiny, they crafted a united front in favor of utility-scale solar development, often making difficult compromises. "I have spent my entire career thinking of myself as an advocate on behalf of public lands and acting for their protection," said Johanna Wald, a veteran environmental attorney with the Natural Resources Defense Council. "I am now helping facilitate an activity on public lands that will have very significant environmental impacts. We are doing it because of the threat of climate change. It's not an accommodation; it's a change I had to make to respond to climate." That unusual collaboration — along with generous federal subsidies and allotments of public land — has sparked a wholesale remodeling of the American desert." - Bird-botts "Schramm, who retired last December as superintendent at Mojave National Preserve, found himself at odds with the Interior Department, his own parent agency, in defending the 900 species of plants and 300-plus species of animals in the preserve, especially the desert tortoise. "For the life of the projects, that habitat is lost to the desert tortoise. It's 'Pack your bags, you're leaving,'" he said. "So while you are trying to recover the species, you take away the habitat?" Schramm sees the vast desert, with a tenuous constituency that cares about it, as a pawn in a high-stakes financial gambit played out by multinational companies. "Some of these projects are going to fail," he said. "These are big businesses chasing federal dollars — they don't care if they fail. They got what they want." Should that happen, he said, the species that rely on the arid and austere Mojave will be out of luck. "If these companies pull out and attempt to restore the land — if they can — it will take a long time," he said. "It will be 100 years. It might be 200 years. That's how long it would take to restore the desert."" - Bird-botts
