Wonga defends loans before grilling
8:11am Tuesday 5th November 2013 in National News © Press Association 2013
Representatives from Wonga, QuickQuid and Mr Lender - three of the biggest payday lending firms - will appear before a committee of MPs
Payday lender Wonga has defended its record ahead of an expected grilling by MPs.
Chief operating officer Niall Wass warned against "jumping to conclusions" about his company, which has come under fire over the way it treats customers.
"I am not sitting here today saying that everything we do is perfect; what we are trying to do is use great technology to give a really fair, transparent service to customers," he said in an interview with ITV News At 10.
Mr Wass challenged the Archbishop of Canterbury, the Most Rev Justin Welby, who has criticised the payday loan companies, to use Wonga services.
"What I am asking him and others to do - go use the service, see if you think it is fair and transparent , take out £30 for 10 days, pay it back after a week and then judge us by our customers," he said.
His remarks came as Wonga made a film showing the positive experience of the "silent majority" of its customers, ahead of a session in the House of Commons when MPs will question payday loan companies.
Representatives from Wonga, QuickQuid and Mr Lender - three of the biggest payday lending firms - will appear before the Commons Business, Innovation and Skills Select Committee.
MPs are expected to follow up on a damning report by the Office of Fair Trading (OFT) which found "deep-rooted" problems in the way payday loans attract and treat customers.
Lenders have come under intense scrutiny from the Competition Commission and the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) since the OFT report was published in September amid reports of widespread impropriety in the sector.
The committee hearing pre-empts the transferral of regulatory powers in the consumer credit market from the Office of Fair Trading to the FCA on April 1 2014. The new body, which came into being in April this year, has promised to strengthen protection for consumers.
To do so, it has been equipped with the power to impose unlimited fines and compel businesses to give people their money back when they have lost out due to poor treatment.
New curbs proposed by the body in October will force lenders to place "risk warnings'' on their promotions and advertising, urging consumers to "think'' before taking out a payday loan.
Richard Lloyd, the executive director of Which?, will also appear before the committee today. He welcomed the FCA's new role but said "the Government and regulators must go further to clean up the wider credit market".
Gillian Guy, chief executive of Citizens Advice Bureau, will also address the committee.
She said: "MPs have the opportunity to hammer home some hard truths from their constituencies. The payday loan industry has boomed as people struggle to cope with the rising cost of living, but it has failed to act responsibly.
"When I speak to MPs at the Select Committee, I will tell them how evidence from Citizens Advice finds that people are being given loans without any proper checks to make sure they can afford to pay them back. This sends borrowers into a spiral of debt which is very hard to get out of.
"Some payday lenders are misusing continuous payment authorities by emptying their customers' bank accounts without prior warning - leaving them without any money to get to work, pay the bills or buy food."
Payday lenders have also been criticised for aggressive advertising campaigns that reportedly mislead potential consumers. In July, the FCA's chief executive, Martin Wheatley, indicated that offending firms could face a complete advertising ban.
He said previously: "Clearly that is an option that could be considered if it was felt that the way that advertising was being used couldn't be dealt with through any other measures short of that.''
The MPs' intervention follows research by a Government-backed body that found more than one million people plan to take out a payday loan to cover the cost of Christmas.
The Money Advice Service (MAS) said one in 40 (2.44%) people surveyed for its research, equating to around 1.2 million across the UK, is thinking about turning to a payday lender to fund their seasonal spending.
One-third (32%) of the 2,000 consumers questioned also said they will ramp up their credit card debts to pay for the festivities, while one in every 11 (9%) people said they are still paying off what they owe from last Christmas.
Consumer Minister Jo Swinson said a "huge amount" had already been done by the Government to tackle concerns over payday lending.
"We are already taking enforcement action which has seen 25 payday lending firms leave the market in their entirety," she told ITV Day Break.
"While ... some customers manage OK with this type of lending when it is for an unbudgeted emergency, when it is actually a sign of deeper financial problems, if you can't afford to make ends meet at the end of the month, then actually what people need is not a loan, it is some debt advice."

Debbie Phelps Gives Credit To Daughters For Son Michael Phelps' Olympic Success
First Published: August 1, 2012 7:37 PM EDT Credit: Access Hollywood
LOS ANGELES, Calif. -- Debbie Phelps' son, Olympic swimmer Michael Phelps, earned his record-breaking 19th medal in London on Tuesday – a feat the proud mom attributes partly to her two daughters.
"What did you give to your son to have propelled him to be the greatest Olympian ever?" Access Hollywood correspondent Tim Vincent asked Debbie during an interview in London on Wednesday.
"Probably two more women --- and that would be his sisters," Debbie said with a smile, referencing daughters Hilary and Whitney. "I call his sisters the keystone of the family, because if the girls hadn't swum, this history would not have been made."
Adding, "Michael just kind of followed his sisters."
As the proud mom watched her only son earn his 19th medal, she knew she was watching history in the making.
"We talked about that going back in the car last night — we just witnessed history," Debbie — who is also a paid spokesperson, along with Michael, for Subway — said. "We just saw a record be broken that was 47 years old!"

-- massive deficit causes them -- one city to take some pretty drastic measures.
Scranton Pennsylvania has been on the State's distressed cities last for twenty years.
And this year the city faces a sixteen point eight million dollar budget shortfall.
So the mayor made the very unpopular move of cutting the pay of nearly 400 workers.
To minimum wage seven dollars and 25 cents an hour so now he's got unions for both the police and the firefighters.
Planning to hold him in contempt of court to restore their pay.
Here is one union president's reaction.
Or ten years I've watched this guy walked to the core orders.
Martin walked all over our contracts it's unfortunate that it's gotta be pushed this -- but you know.
-- members are suffering here every day that goes -- is there is another question mark for them and how they're gonna meet their financial obligations and pay their mortgage.
Size -- joined now by the mayor of Scranton Chris Doherty -- -- welcome good to have you here this morning.
Good morning with that so let's get your reaction action that gentleman up from the union he's he's a fireman what what do you say -- Well obviously we've known others that troubles that we're gonna happen this year because our council passed a budget that was based on borrowing and now they've been unwilling to.
-- that borrowing and as a result we have we have a shortfall.
We've made all the employees aware of what may happen as we continue to -- -- that Aaron be unwilling to fund their budget which is council is done.
Our employees do a great job -- outstanding or firemen or police are DPW workers are clerical workers all -- do an outstanding job.
And it's unfortunate City Council has passed a budget that's based on -- And as unwilling to fund.
You know when you decide to borrow the banks have -- say.
In the terms and conditions and right now they've been unwilling to meet those conditions but we're gonna work with them to make sure we get through this -- that's our jobs.
As a leaders of the city to get through it and take care the employees but also taking the citizens of our city and protect their number one asset which is their home.
-- you say this say it you know everybody sort of knew that this was a possibility that this could have been coming.
Your proposal as I understand it what was to raise property taxes by 789%.
And also to instituted charge 22 dollars firfer garbage pick -- You know why increase property taxes disintegrate extent 79 -- a lot.
Well two things first of all.
The budget -- last year for 2012.
It would have been increased the taxes by -- 130 dollars and that would solve problems that we have today.
Because council chose to borrow and ignore.
My budget.
Now they're forced -- the banks in the banks have said we wanna know I gonna pay us back.
And what I've done is explain to them here's what you have to -- -- out to project your cost over the next.
And sever years to pay them back.
It's it's very difficult and it's a very difficult situation.
But I always said this is I've been elected three times you have to be honest with the people and say these -- -- services cost.
You know we have been burdened with a lot of legacy costs in -- Kenya and what we're trying to do is manage -- all all left for everyone.
In the city in the employees and to make it work.
Well -- that that's exactly what I wanted to get to hear because in so many cities across America the issue is the legacy -- the pensions you know we heard Governor Christie just Saturday.
Say look I don't want the federal government to send me any more money for federal workers -- I have got enough problems dealing with that the number of federal workers that I have been pain.
That the pension promises that they have been made to all of these workers is there any discussion about reworking pensions going for word or restructuring.
You're city's financial situation so that this doesn't happen again you know get out of a hole.
Yet there are discussions going on but I think you touchdown Martha Chris is our health care bills fifteen million dollars.
The majority of that bill goes to retirees those -- agreements or made before I became the mayor.
And we need to you know address and understand those costs now cities like Scranton throughout the northeast particularly -- -- -- have -- -- -- and very birds some.
-- -- recently were able to get a grant from the federal government where we're able to hire bring back firemen who were laid off.
But I -- hired an additional twenty fireman and I said no because I didn't -- a burden the taxpayers of our city but that additional -- you have to be fiscally prudent.
I became -- eleven years ago we -- 500 employees today we have 400 we're trying to reduce our costs.
But it's very difficult.
In the especially in this environment where the federal government has no money the state -- no money.
And for cities we're -- hard government you know with the pick up the garbage we are police and fire trucks around the streets every day.
We have to plow and -- we have to fix our parks.
People see us every day it's different than.
When in the state and federal governments -- you don't really touched down what with the city government list of -- You see your services every day and they have to be out there every day -- and every morning.
You know hijackers have a little bit of time left but some of these -- as firefighters policeman had been living on about 16100.
Dollars for two weeks now they're down to a 600 dollar paycheck.
300 bucks a week that they're stretching over the course of two weeks.
What can you tell them you know if you could tell them one -- here's what would solve your problem and get you back to a better pay scale what would it be.
Well two things first fully guarantee that they will always -- there will be made whole.
We will pay them but.
We are working at it now so that that makes next paycheck so hopefully that'll be a full paycheck for them you know your tax revenues come in unevenly.
And we're concentrated on that to make that happen no wants to do this -- -- but as I said before.
We're left for this deficit has result not only -- When you run a city government are you paying salaries but I have to have gas in the police cars and decent in the fire trucks have to pay the landfill so our garbage can be accepted.
I have to pay health care.
And we're trying to make it work and we have a shortfall you're trying to balance it out.
Our employees do -- great job we know we have to pay them and as a mayor I'm trying to make it -- -- and still provide all the services has been varsity.
And make sure that we take care of our employees.
Got a tough job and a place it has had some long term financial lows as so many cities have.
I in this country we're gonna watch your situation.
And we'll see how it all works out mayor -- thank you very much for being -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- Thank you --

Date: May 08 2012
Oil Search says 2012 will be a potentially transformational year for the company, presenting an unprecedented opportunity to grow the value of its assets.
Port Moresby-based Oil Search said in a presentation lodged with the Australian Securities Exchange on Tuesday that 2012 would be a year of "peak activity" for its liquefied natural gas (LNG) project in Papua New Guinea.
Also, the largest drilling program ever undertaken by Oil Search was underway and would continue through 2012 and into 2013, and there was potential upside for both gas and ongoing oil production.
Oil Search said it was likely to be PNG's largest single investor in 2012, with more than $US2 billion ($A1.97 billion) to be spent on development, appraisal, exploration and operations.
Oil Search said its guidance for the production of oil and gas from existing fields in 2012 was in the range of 6.2 million to 6.7 million barrels of oil equivalent (mmboe), unchanged from 2011.
Production in 2013 was expected to be broadly flat, subject to the success of work programs.
"We are in the midst of a period of heavy investment and have a range of exciting growth opportunities ahead," Oil Search chairman Brian Horwood told shareholders at the company's annual general meeting in Port Moresby.
He said that during 2011, major construction progress had been made on all facets of the PNG LNG project and a range of LNG-related modifications to Oil Search's oil field processing and liquids export facilities had been completed.
"We expect to have the capability to produce commissioning gas by the end of 2012," Mr Horwood said.
"The project remains on track to commence first LNG sales in 2014 and, apart from the impact of adverse exchange rate movements that were announced late last year, remains on budget."
Mr Horwood also said that there had been considerable political uncertainty in PNG over the past year, which has created some concerns within the banking and investment communities.
"Despite the political instability, neither the PNG LNG project nor our operations have been disrupted," he said.
An election in PNG is expected in June/July 2012, with a new government formed in August/September.
Oil Search anticipated no change to its operating status but said it would be cautious and watchful.
Shares in Oil Search were five cents higher at $7.17 at 1227 AEST on Tuesday.

The room was clean& comfortable. The problems we had were pertaining to the manager. First when we went out we purposely left a light on and the heat on 65 degrees. Came back a few hours later and both were off. Asked the manager about someone being in room and was told," oh no ,we would get in trouble for going in rooms. If anything is missing we'll […] check security tapes". Nothing was but we knew someone was there. Second when we first got there was told that the room we were booked in didnt have a wirlpool tub when we specifically asked before we booked room. Were told we could upgrade for an additional fee of $15.00 per nite.which came to $45 plus tax. We paid cash. Upon check out my wife was asked to sign a paper for the charges. We reminded the manager we paid cash. She agreed and remembered. Upon returning home checked our bank account. Which we left little money in, and found we had an overdraft fee. Come to find out the hotel tried to charge our credit card anyway but was denied and resulted in a $36 overdraft. Not happy. Skaityti daugiauTikras "Hotels.com" svečio atsiliepimas

About Me Budget Shopper
Comments about River Ridge Kids 6-Bin Storage Cabinet - Espresso:
For the price it is very tiny and mine came with not only cosmetic scratches and chips, but also lacking a a piece so the top slightly separates. It's pretty low quality, including the very tiny bins. Despite all that we do use it and it helps organize the mass accumulation of toys that 3 boys (about to add a 4th mystery baby in a week or so) so I can't complain too much, but still, if you're expecting something bigger, be forewarned! Also beware of the very sharp corners for little ones! I try to keep it in a corner for this reason

Great for a playroom!
By Mom of 3
from Blue Bell, PA
Perfect for a playroom! looked a little bigger online ... but for little people, its a good size and fits all the little toys. The colors are fun, matches everything.Assembly needed, but pretty easy.
Classy Looking
By New Dad CT
from Fairfield County
My wife and I bought one of these and loved the look with the new furniture we bought. It also worked well with the coloring of the room. We went out and bought a second piece to balance the room. Now we have color storage and a complete look. It was fairly straight forward to put together.The only down side is that some of the larger books we have don't fit in the cabinet standing up. Small price to pay for such a good looking piece.

I love the cubby and bins. It keeps my daughters toys organized and clean. It also teaches her to organize, sort, categorize, and associate. This also helped encourage clean up and she seems to have a sense of importance and charge of keeping her room nice. Assembly is required.
Good Value

Very easy to put together, I'm 8 months pregnant and I did it myself! Great for baby's storage and looks so colorful in the nursery!

Lambert, Hendricks & Ross
Lambert, Hendricks & Ross
The premier jazz vocal act of all time, Lambert, Hendricks & Ross revolutionized vocal music during the late '50s and early '60s by turning away from the increasingly crossover slant of the pop world to embrace the sheer musicianship inherent in vocal jazz. Applying the concepts of bop harmonies to swinging vocal music, the trio transformed dozens of instrumental jazz classics into their own songs, taking scat solos and trading off licks and riffs in precisely the same fashion as their favorite improvising musicians. Vocal arranger Dave Lambert wrote dense clusters of vocal lines for each voice that, while only distantly related, came together splendidly. Jon Hendricks wrote clever, witty lyrics to jazz standards like "Summertime," "Moanin'," and "Twisted," and Annie Ross proved to be one of the strongest, most dexterous female voices in the history of jazz vocals. Together Lambert, Hendricks & Ross paved the way for vocal groups like Manhattan Transfer while earning respect from vocalists and jazz musicians alike.

Spanish researchers say they've developed a therapeutic vaccine to temporarily stop the growth of HIV in infected patients.
Scientists at the University of Barcelona tested the vaccine in a randomized, blinded, placebo-controlled trial.
A study published Wednesday in "Science Translational Medicine" said the vaccine temporarily lowered the level of HIV in the blood of infected volunteers for a number of months.
It allowed people on long-term antiretroviral therapy to temporarily live without taking multiple medicines every day.
The vaccine lost its effectiveness over time.
Therapeutic vaccines treat rather than prevent diseases.
The team reportedly hailed the findings as proof such a vaccine might lead to a the control of HIV replication without antiretroviral drugs.

Electronic tracking devices for suspects out on bail face scrutiny
Reputed drug dealer Deangelo Rashard Mitchell got out of jail on a $150,000 bond in January after authorities were assured that the North Charleston mans every movement would be tracked with satellite monitoring.
But Mitchell, who was accused of coercing his brother to eat a fatal dose of cocaine last year, repeatedly blew off his house arrest and went all over the place at all hours of the night, prosecutors said.
Whats more, the monitoring company tracking his movements suspected that he was out selling drugs, but when the company alerted his bail bondswoman, Frances Jenkins, nothing was done, according to court testimony Thursday.
I told her he was possibly out there doing drug transactions. She replied Well, thats how he makes a living,? testified Jim Robinson, owner of Robinson GPS Monitoring.
I said Well, are you going to pick him up? She said No.?
Saying she was stunned by the lack of diligence in this case, Circuit Judge Stephanie McDonald revoked Mitchells bail Thursday for repeated, repeated, repeated violations and ordered him jailed. McDonald said she wanted to put bail bonding companies on notice that changes are in the works and that they better start taking electronic monitoring a lot more seriously.
Ninth Circuit Solicitor Scarlett Wilson agreed, and said she thinks the Mitchell case is just the tip of the iceberg. Thats why she has launched a review of the current criminal defendants on satellite monitoring to look for possible violations.
Her office already has found some problems, including one bonding company that cut off court-ordered monitoring for nine days because the defendant didnt pay his bill for the service, Wilson said.
Actions like that put the public at risk, give victims a false sense of security and undercut the good intentions of judges, she said.
Its a disturbing situation, and its not fair to the victims, its not fair to judges and its not fair to us, she said. The technology is fantastic. Its the human component thats the issue.
History of problems
This isnt the first time authorities have questioned the effectiveness of the electronic tracking, which is run by private companies and has had repeated problems over the years.
As far back as 2002, prosecutors were calling the system a sham. And in 2006, area magistrates temporarily suspended placing defendants on monitoring after a Folly Beach rape suspect on house arrest was accused of sexually assaulting another woman while wearing a tracking device.
Wilson said her office is still trying to determine how many criminal defendants are on satellite monitoring in Charleston and Berkeley counties, but the number is believed to be less than 100.
She also wants to know just how many companies offer the tracking service. Robinson, who has been in the business for years, said he is not even sure how many competitors he has.
Prosecutors credited Robinson, a former police officer who is also a bail bondsman, with alerting authorities to problems with Mitchell around the same time the suspects ex-girlfriend shared stories of his many violations.
Claims of ignorance
Mitchell, 23, was out on bail and awaiting trial on a cocaine distribution charge when he was arrested by North Charleston police in November on a drug-trafficking offense. While in the back seat of a police car, Mitchell allegedly encouraged his younger brother to eat a large amount of cocaine to destroy some of the evidence, police said.
His brother, 20-year-old Wayne Joshua Mitchell, had a seizure and died less than an hour later. Police then charged Deangelo Mitchell with manslaughter.
Mitchell told the judge Thursday that no one told him he was on house arrest when he was released from a jail in January and outfitted with a satellite monitor, which he paid $240 a week to maintain.
He said neither Jenkins nor the monitoring company told him he was violating the terms of his release when he ventured out. In fact, he said, Robinsons workers told him he was doing just fine.
No one aint never told me I was in violation of my monitor, he said.
Jenkins, who put up the money to secure Mitchells freedom, also claimed ignorance of the parameters of her clients release, saying she never received any paperwork spelling out the terms. I dont even understand how the monitoring works, she said.
Jenkins acknowledged that Robinsons staff called her on a couple of occasions to say Mitchell was staying out too late. She said she called Mitchell and told him he needed to tighten up and stay off of the streets. He seemed to get the message, she said.
Its never been like it was a serious situation where we needed to go get him and put him back in jail, she said.
Robinson testified that he and his staff warned her and Mitchell repeatedly about his failure to abide buy the terms of his house arrest. Over and over, Mitchell ventured miles from his North Charleston home to the East Side of Charleston and other spots, often staying out until 2 a.m., he said.
Robinson said his company urged Jenkins to dump Mitchell back in jail.
It got to where there was just no compliance, he said. It was very obvious. ... It was a daily violation.
Robinson also said all the parties involved were informed up front of the parameters and responsibilities of Mitchells release, and required to sign off on that.
Assistant Solicitor Culver Kidd also questioned how Mitchells girlfriend could be so intimately familiar with the requirements of his release if he and his bondsman were so in the dark.
McDonald said their claims of ignorance strained the bounds of credulity, and she was stunned by the absolute blatant disregard that allowed his violations to go unaddressed for so long. She ordered Mitchell back to jail, and deputies quickly led him away in handcuffs.
McDonald is now looking to draft revisions that clarify the monitoring guidelines and responsibilities for the service.
The companies now offering the service likely deserve a chance to show whether they can improve, Wilson said. But it may be that monitoring should be handled by the Charleston County Sheriffs Office or the countys consolidated dispatch system to ensure greater accountability, she said.
The bonding companies have a disincentive to report violations because it costs them money if their clients go back to jail, Wilson said. Some companies do the right thing anyway, but others do not, she said.
Robinson agreed, and said he favors stricter guidelines. He has run into several occasions where fellow bonding companies have failed to take action when he informed them of offenders ignoring the rules. They just dont care.

California Highway Patrol Officers say five people were driving southbound on Highway 1 in a Jeep Wrangler when they veered off onto an embankment towards Cuesta College Sunday morning.
They say the car rolled several times, and three of the passengers were not wearing seatbelts. According to officials, two passengers were ejected from the vehicle, and one was "totally" ejected.
They say they all have moderate to major injuries, and they confirm one fatality.
Their names are not being released at this time because the families have not been notified. They say the driver was 19, and a 17-year-old passenger died. Two other juveniles were also in the car.

Listen to Taylor Swift on iHeartRadio | Listen to One Direction on iHeartRadio
Parks, zoos, pubs, tattoo parlors. They're all just scenic backdrops for the latest chapter in the Next Great Transatlantic Love Story, better known as the highly photographed dating of Harry Styles and Taylor Swift. Back in the U.S.A., Olly Murs' favorite couple continues their trend of picture-perfect outings—although the latter screams Harry's idea, unless Taylor has some hidden ink we don't know about. After celebrating her birthday in England last week, Harry joined up with Taylor on the West Coast and the two were spotted at the Shamrock tattoo parlor on Tuesday.
Harry and his 1D mates like to commemorate momentous occasions with a little ink. To what do we owe this most recent addition of a majestic ship?
Maybe alltime spent in the dirt for "I Knew You Were Trouble" has helped her open up to new experiences? But Hazza's latest body art acquisition bears a striking resemblance to the inkReeve Carney sported—in the exact same place—in the "Trouble" video. Examine his tatted up bicep below.
Is this more proof that "Trouble" was written about Harry after a brief fling earlier this year, or the suggestion that Hazza is trying to live up to Taylor's lyrics as best he can?

Olympic Iliad, Seattle Center by Stephen M. Scott |
District Energy
A district energy system heats and/or cools multiple buildings through one central energy plant, eliminating the need for boilers in each individual building. This centralized heating and cooling allows for substantial increases in energy efficiency and expands options for greener fuel sources. District energy is a key strategy in helping achieve our climate protection and energy conservation goals. The City has recently completed a study to evaluate the neighborhoods in Seattle where district energy is likely to be most promising, and to identify policies that could help advance district energy in Seattle. Based on the key findings and recommendations of the study, the City is pursuing a strategy to expand district energy on First Hill. Study documents include: First Hill Strategic Partnership: First Hill presents the greatest near-term opportunity for expanding district energy because of the opportunity created by the Seattle Housing Authority's planned redevelopment of Yesler Terrace, combined with large existing heat loads from three hospitals and the potential to capture additional heat load in surrounding areas. The City will explore opportunities for partnership with a new district energy provider on First Hill, and is currently selecting a district energy utility partner to engage in this process. For more information on OSE's district energy work, contact Christie Baumel, (206) 233-7173. District energy illustration courtesy of International District Energy Association. |
