	A New Way to Pay Old Debts
		He soon had a $2.00 overdraft which produced a $29 penalty thus causing his account to be overdrawn by $31.
		Thanks to the New York Times, we now know that the practice just described (aside from canceling the debt) is only one of the amusing ways banks that issue credit cards increase their profit margins.
		According to MNBA"s general counsel, Louis Freeh, "If we see indications that a customer is taking on too much debt, has missed or is late on payments to other creditors, or is otherwise mishandling their personal finances, it is not unreasonable to determine that this behavior is an increased risk.

	The New Yorker: PRINTABLES
		Cuba had a mountain of foreign debt, and during the peace negotiations Spain insisted that the Cubans were responsible for all of it.
		Debt, the Spanish argued, was attached to a territory, not to a regime.
		First articulated in the twenties by a former tsarist minister named Alexander Sack, the doctrine holds that a country is not responsible for debts incurred by a “despotic regime” and used for purposes “contrary to the interests of the nation.” Both criteria have to be met for the debt to be considered odious.

		Two of Massinger's more frequently published plays, A New Way to Pay Old Debts and The City Madam, focus squarely on the devious tactics of moneylenders and may for that reason create a false impression that his economic outlook resembled the views embodied in the earlier city comedies.
		Wellborn, the young protagonist of A New Way to Pay Old Debts, stands to lose his inherited estate because he is unable to meet the terms of a loan from his uncle, Sir Giles Overreach.
		By extension, the monarch acting in a way appropriate to his position bestowed bounty upon his subjects, and they as recipients of honors, offices, and stipends expressed their thankfulness through loyal service, completing a political circle of generosity and gratitude.

		Additionally, people who lived in the disaster zones and were already in serious debt and planned to file before the new law takes effect next month now cannot hire bankruptcy lawyers and assemble their financial records in time, lawmakers and consumer advocates said.
		Opponents said the new law rewarded the $30 billion credit card industry and would do nothing to rein in credit card solicitations or put caps on interest rates or late fees, over-the-limit fees and other penalties--even though these were among the reasons people were forced to declare bankruptcy in the first place.
		The new law would harm hundreds of thousands of women and children owed child support or alimony by forcing them to compete with credit card issuers, making it less likely that support payments would be made to those in need, the Washington, D.C.-based advocacy group said.

	Tampabay: 'Buyers' give old debts new life
		Some debt buyers are hauling consumers into court and getting permission to garnish their wages, empty their bank accounts or even seize their cars.
		After submitting the winning bid, a buyer typically scrubs his new portfolio of debtors who have died or otherwise are not worth chasing, such as those whose debts were erased in bankruptcy.
		Debt buyers are in business to make money, of course, but they say the debtor benefits as well — with flexible repayment terms, an improved credit rating, even relief from a guilty conscience.

	Medieval English urban history - Norwich - Effects of the Conquest
		Where the castle had been a case of disruption of existing settlement through imposition, the cathedral-priory was a matter of acquisition of land, piecemeal; yet it too led to the demolition of possibly entire streets of houses and of a couple of churches.
		This foundation had "new town" status and was part of a broader Norman policy of deliberate colonization of Anglo-Saxon centres (although the establishment of a separate but adjacent Norman quarter was itself rare).
		This new town is later found with the name of Man(nes)croft, recalling the large open area around which the settlers spread and on which a parish church was built by the earl; this open area was likely (perhaps consequently) used for trading.

	Women pay a price in war on Afghan drug trade - The Boston Globe
		In a culture of arranged marriages, where a groom usually pays the father of a bride between $200 and $5,000 depending on her social status and skills, a man can cancel his debt by arranging for his daughter to marry the lender or the lender's relative.
		He said he allows his wife to keep in touch with her family, but that it is common for husbands in the Pashtun tribal areas to bar their wives from contact with the world outside the home, including with their own parents.
		That research, done as part of a report by a new Afghan organization known as the Women and Children Legal Research Foundation, reported cases of women as old as 32 and girls as young as 3 being given to another family.

		He had sailed long enough amid the contending tides and currents of the time to be sensible of their peril, and of the necessity of trimming his vessel to the prevailing wind, if he would have her escape shipwreck in the storm.
		His guest departed, without having brought the wily old statesman the length of committing himself, or of pledging himself to any future line of conduct, but with the certainty that he had alarmed his fears in a most sensible point, and laid a foundation for future and farther treaty.
		This news, with exaggerations, was speedily carried from various quarters to the ears of the Lord Keeper, and each reporter dwelt upon the extreme impatience of the courier, and the surprising short time in which he had executed his journey.

		Only one of them, A New Way to Pay Old Debts, still holds the stage, chiefly because the leading character, Sir Giles Overreach, a sort of commercial Richard III, a compound of "the lion and the fox," provides many opportunities for a great actor.
		Lik all Massinger's plays, it is most ingenious and effective in construction, but in this, as in others, he has been more intent upon the elaboration of a plot and the exhibition of a ruling passion than upon winning the love and admiration of his audience for heroes and heroines.
		All that remain, with the exception of A New Way to Pay Old Debts, have long since been relegated to the closet; but there are several which deserve a better fate.
