In 1982, TransUnion was acquired as a subsidiary of Marmon Group, a holding company formed by Jay Pritzker and Robert Pritzker. It was spun off as a separate company under Pritzker control in 2005. The wealthy Pritzker family, most famous for owning the Hyatt hotel chain, began divesting the family's assets in late 2001 following the death of Jay Pritzker. Notable major divestitures include Hyatt Hotels Corp. public in 2009 and selling majority stake in TransUnion in 2010.[1] In April 2010, the Pritzker family, with Penny Pritzker as TransUnion Chair, sold controlling interest of TransUnion to a new majority owner, the Chicago-based private-equity firm Madison Dearborn Partners.[2] Madison Dearborn Partners acquired 51 percent stake in TransUnion, and the Pritzker family maintained 49 percent ownership. It is based in Chicago, Illinois.

This is simply unacceptable. We encourage you to be aggressive in your investigation to properly hold accountable those who attacked our compounds in Benghazi."Obama administration officials have tried to assuage lawmakers' lingering concerns and questions about the Benghazi attack, including over allegations that the administration misled the public about the nature of the assault last September. But lawmakers have also grown increasingly frustrated over the fact that nobody has been brought to justice since four Americans were killed in the attack on two U.S. posts in the eastern Libya city that was a home base for the anti-Qaddafi rebellion.Lawmakers probed further on Wednesday, when they had a closed hearing with Col. George Bristol, who was the commander of a task force operating in northern and western Africa. He briefed members of the House Armed Services Committee.

One of the biggest impediments to establishing a market for electric cars is the lack of charging stations, like this one in Montpelier, Vt. (AP Photo/Toby Talbot)A California company was given more than $100 million in taxpayer funds by the federal government with few strings attached to establish a network of electric car charging stations that is fraught with problems, according to a government audit.All this, despite weak demand by the American public for electric cars.While President Obama has pledged to get 1 million electric cars on U.S. roads by 2015, a new report by the Department of Energys inspector general found that Americans aversion to electric vehicles and loose department supervision led to stalling the charging network which cost taxpayers more than $135 million.The report noted the project was filled with problems from the beginning, and said taxpayer-funded grants to San Francisco-based ECOtality for it were very generous and involved little risk by the company.- Inspector General's reportECOtality, which recently named Brandon Hurlbut, former chief of staff for ex-Energy Secretary Steven Chu, to its board, won a $99.8 million award in 2009 to install nearly 15,000 electric vehicle chargers throughout the country.The company and its subsidiaries also received about $35 million from the departments Vehicle Technologies Program from 2005 to 2011, for two multiyear projects to evaluate and test specific vehicles.Acco
