[Muhammad Yunus] and the Grameen Bank he created won the Nobel Peace Prize on Friday for the Micro Lending program. Though it is not the first time the committee has chosen to honor Economic Development as a contribution to [World Peace], rather than the more usual diplomacy, rights advocacy or philanthropy, it is the first time the prize has been awarded to a profit-making ([For Profit]) business.
