Yorkshire Loan Company
I’m not sure how these loan scams work, but I suspect they ask you for lots of up front fees and then charge you an exhorbitant interest rate. So there’s nothing unusual there.

A few points :-
- Look for a start at the address, which says that London is in Gloucestershire.
- And then the phone number is one of those high cost 0704 numbers, which you should never phone.
- Licence is spelt the American way with an s.
- The consumer credit licence number may be valid and could relate to an outfit called 1-Click credit.com. Their site has the same Gloucestershire address, but no phone number or an e-mail address. I wouldn’t use them either for that reason.
So ignore ithis scam.
The Paradox that is Pakistan
There is a long article in The Sunday Times today by Christina Lamb, that should be read by everyone who worries for the future of that part of Asia. I do,as I was born, when two nations; India and Pakistan, were created out of violence.
She details how the ISI, the Pakistan Security Service has pursued its own policies over the country, the Taliban and Afghanistan. She more or less accuses the ISI of being involved in the rise of the Taliban in Afghanistan, the assassination of Benazir Bhutto and the attacks on Mumbai. One also wonders where the $18billion that the United States has given Pakistan in aid has gone?
After reading Lanb’s article, I feel very much that David Cameron got it about right, when he spoke in India last week!
We also today have the appalling performance of the Pakistan cricket team at Nottingham, where they collapsed badly and were beaten by 354 runs. They had the nucleus of a team, but it self-destructed in Australia and some players endeed up being banned for life. If you can’t organise your national sport, when you have so much history in the game, you are in a bad state.
Added to this is the fact, that I know from some of my friends, that it is still possible to do serious business with Pakistan. So it’s not all bad news!
But what worries me about Pakistan is that if they should support another terrorist attack on India. Would India show the same restraint she did after the Mumbai attacks? I think not this time, as those attacks weren’t the first and they must be losing patience!
Would the various communities from the sub-continent show restraint in the UK? Most probably would, but I doubt that we could keep out of it.
Pakistan must get its act together, reinforce democracy and curb the power of the ISI.
Don’t Put Too Much Pressure on Little Miss Perfect!
The nickname is not mine, but that of Simon Barnes of The Times in his article about the incomparable Jessica Ennis, who surely will be one of the faces of the London Olympics. Barnes talks of the burden placed on Cathy Freeman’s shoulders because she was the face of the Sydney Games. She took it well and still won the gold in her event.
Can Jessica?
Judging by the reaction of her parents and I think, her sister, as she won yesterday and she will have all support she can want in that direction. As I suspect she will from the media, who adore her and UK Athletics, who see her as a good bet for Olympic gold.
But as I said in the title, we must be careful to not put too much pressure on her.
I have this feeling though, that if we do, then it will make no difference to her. She’s been through a lot of adversity and problems to get where she has already. How many athletes have learned to jump off the wrong foot for a start to avoid injury? So perhaps the pressure we could add is minimal.
Idowu’s Legacy
Phillips Idowu has come good in the last couple of years in the triple jump, winning the World Championships last year and the Euopean this year. In an interview in The Times he is quoted as saying this.
I want my kids to say, ‘Dad was good at what he did’, and they can tell their kids, ‘Grandad was good at what he did.’
They can also tell them about the upbringing I had and inspire them to know that you can still make the best of yourself. You can come from a really bad upbringing and be the best in the world. That’s my inspiration.
He is absolutely right.
Technology for Umpires
I am watching the England Pakistan Test at Nottingham on Sky. I must say that I’m impressed by the new referral system, that allows technology to check an umpire’s decision. This piece in The Telegraph, seems to have found a lot of agreement amongst spectators, that the new system is fair and good.
What seems to work is the fact that each side can make two challenges in an innings, just like in tennis, where each player or team in doubles can make two challenges in a set.
Surely, football could come up with a similar system, which allowed two challenges per half of the referee’s decisions for important phases in the game, such as goals, penalties and red cards. Just as at Nottingham, the review footage could be shown on a big screen for everyone to see. The referee would take the decision, based on images from several cameras. Interestingly, I have a feeling that technology exists to continuously track the ball using a camera, so that its complete trajectory could be shown.
BUt that old full-of-wind fart, Bladder, wouldn’t like it.
UAE to Ban Some Blackberry Services
I’ve never used a Blackberry, but I can understand why people do! I also didn’t know that they use their own method of encription for e-mail, which I would asume makes it fairly secure. Now according to the BBC, the UAE wants to ban these sort of services, because they can’t read e-mail sent between the devices.
It strikes me that if the UAE wants to be a business and holiday centre of choice, that this would not appeal to those, who they would wish to attract.
Why Arsene Wenger is Different
It has been reported on the BBC, that he sent a message of congratulations to Mo Farah after his victory in the 5,000 metres last night. According to the Telegraph, Arsene had already given Mo his backing.
I can’t imagine many other football managers doing the same.
Richard Dawkins on Radio 5
I’m listening to him on Radio 5 at the moment. He talks a lot of sense.
He has just said that we want free-thinking schools, where scirnce is to the fore. I went to one of those. It was called Minchenden. Such don’t exist in the public sector too much these days. So Minchenden was a grammar school, but that was just incidental. We had good teachers, who gave us the basics and made us think both in and out of the box.
