Re: MANHATTAN WATER; "The Great Gatsby" turns 100: Initially a sales flop, now regarded as the "great American novel" - CBS Minnesota

Ms. Attorney General Letitia James: Ms. James, today, April 10, 2025, xNY.io - Bank.org will be at Bloomberg's New York City Headquarters; Contrary to the India Global Forum's recent feature of India Trade Minister Piyush Goyal. - xNY.io - Bank.org will take New York City's water quality argument to Bloomberg for further investigation. *In other news, today the Great Gatsby celebrates its centennial. * - Now, 100 years after the book's first publication on April 10, 1925. *"The Great Gatsby" turns 100: Initially a sales flop, now regarded as the "great American novel" - CBS Minnesota:* - https://www.cbsnews.com/minnesota/news/the-great-gatsby-turns-100-f-scott-f… xNY.io - Bank.org respectfully reserves all Interjurisdictional rights. Gunnar Larson -- Gunnar Donald Arthur Peter Larson *xNY.io - Bank.org* 917-580-8053 NEW YORK, NEW YORK 10001 *-----(PAGE BREAK)-----* *Entertainment* *"The Great Gatsby" turns 100: Initially a sales flop, now regarded as the "great American novel"* When F. Scott Fitzgerald wrote "The Great Gatsby" at the height of the roaring '20s, he couldn't possibly realize that the book would emerge as one of the very top contenders for "the great American novel." In fact, when Fitzgerald – a St. Paul, Minnesota native whose debut novel "This Side of Paradise" launched him into national prominence at the age of 24 – died in 1940 at the early age of 44, the book was already in danger of falling into obscurity. Now, 100 years after the book's first publication on April 10, 1925, it endures as one of the country's foremost tales of American hubris, modern yearning and class consciousness. And its clear-eyed assessment of the attainability of the American dream remains incisive with each passing decade. Fitzgerald's book, long a staple in high school literature classes, tells the story of Nick Carraway, a Midwesterner (and veiled Fitzgerald stand-in) who becomes enamored with the bon vivant, Jazz Age lifestyle on Long Island, specifically the effects of mutli-millioniare Jay Gatsby. Like Carraway, Gatsby is a Midwesterner who has trekked to the East Coast to make a name for himself. It's Carraway's cousin Daisy Buchanan who serves as the catalyst for Gatsby's downfall, and ultimately Carraway's own disillusionment. All the while, a symbolic green light beckons from the distance. When the book was first published, reviews were largely positive, though not unanimous. Fitzgerald, who originally wanted to title the book "Trimalchio in West Egg" before being persuaded to go with a title he thought far more generic, watched as the book languished on the vine commercially, selling fewer than 25,000 copies in the initial push. He would only complete one further novel in his lifetime: 1934's "Tender is the Night," a thinly-veiled roman à clef of Fitzgerald's own marriage to socialite Zelda Sayre, detailing their mutual descent into alcoholism and mental illness. Fitzgerald's early death from a heart attack was likely fuelled by years and years of alcohol abuse. Ironically, he'd gone sober just ahead of the cardiac event. If "The Great Gatsby" never achieved the level of esteem it now enjoys during the author's own life, it wasn't long after his death that Fitgerald's literary reputation took off. *-----(PAGE BREAK)-----* When the Modern Library asked authors, historians, critics and publishers on the eve of Y2K to rank their picks for the world's best novels of the 20th century, it was "The Great Gatsby" that stood above all other U.S. contenders <https://sites.prh.com/modern-library-top-100> near the top of the poll. (The novel landed in second place, bookended by Irish author James Joyce's "Ulysses" and "A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man" in the top three.) The novel has since launched multiple film adaptations, has been transposed to the stage, and since going into the public domain in 2021, has been the subject of an endless array of reimaginings, remixes and mashups. It's even cleared space around itself as a modern-day meme, in the form of an animated .GIF depicting Leonardo Dicaprio (playing Gatsby in Baz Luhrmann's 2013 film adaptation) smirking as he offers a champagne toast flanked by ostentatious fireworks. Host of "Gatsby" centennial events planned in New York, Minnesota A host of "Gatsby"-themed events are planned to mark the novel's centennial anniversary. In New York, the Empire State Building announced plans to light up in green Thursday, in a nod to the novel's symbolic green light at the end of Tom and Daisy's dock. There is also a rowdy "Roaring Twenties" party scheduled at the Empire Steak House in New York, which was an opulent opera house in Fitzgerald's era. Billed as the "nation's most extravagant celebration," the event will feature live jazz, period dancing, and speeches from officials with the New York Public Library. In Fitzgerald's hometown of St. Paul, the events include a new exhibit of the author's life and times at the Minnesota History Center <https://www.mnhs.org/historycenter/activities/museum/fitzgerald>, as well as various, less-than-sober events leaning into the novel's party-friendly Prohibition-era setting. If you managed to get through high school without having been assigned to read the book, there are a number of live readings of the book scheduled this month, including at St. Paul's Gale Family Library <https://thefriends.org/fitzgerald/>.

Soon after we announced our 10-year target, we >>>> created a new team, the Sustainable Finance Group, to coordinate our >>>> sustainability efforts across the firm. Shortly thereafter, we launched >>>> dedicated sustainability councils within all of our businesses, each led by >>>> a senior leader within the firm, to integrate sustainability solutions into >>>> our work with clients. >>>> >>>> *What's an example? * >>>> >>>> *John Goldstein*: One example I would highlight is the work that we >>>> did with our Global Markets Division where we incorporated ESG data into >>>> the division’s trading capabilities. That in turn helped clients achieve >>>> their ESG goals either broadly or in specific areas, such as lowering their >>>> carbon footprint in their portfolios. We essentially served as a product >>>> incubator within divisions to understand the market need for new strategies >>>> for their clients. The division, in turn, scaled the products and >>>> strategies more broadly. >>>> >>>> *What types of strategies resonated most with clients? * >>>> >>>> *John Goldstein*: Climate solutions were a key focus for clients >>>> across the firm. For example, we’ve worked with our colleagues in the Asset >>>> Management Division to provide growth financing to Swedish manufacturer >>>> Northvolt AB to support the construction of a lithium-ion battery factory >>>> that will expand the market for electric vehicles in Europe. For our public >>>> market investors, we’ve developed ESG strategies in our trading and asset >>>> management businesses and are accelerating global power solutions through >>>> our structuring services in the Global Markets Division. In the Investment >>>> Banking Division, we were part of the largest corporate sustainability bond >>>> for Alphabet; the largest IPO for a solar company, Shoals Technologies; and >>>> helped clients issue more than $35 billion in COVID-19 relief bonds. What >>>> we’ve learned is that there are multiple ways to help clients meet their >>>> decarbonization goals across the firm. In fact, making sustainability a >>>> core commercial focus for us has not only allowed us to scale ESG and >>>> inclusive growth strategies across the breadth and depth of our >>>> organization to meet our clients’ goals, but doing so has also enabled us >>>> to tie it into our own funding strategy as we recently did with the >>>> issuance of our $800 million green bond. >>>> >>>> *Finally, what do you see as the key ESG and sustainability priorities >>>> for companies this year? * >>>> >>>> *John Goldstein*: Investors and corporates are all looking at moving >>>> sustainability considerations from the periphery to the core of their >>>> organizations.
