Pay bills on time Lower your debt to credit ratio Don't cancel any current cards (need credit history) Don't open too many new cards at once Check your credit history to make sure there aren't any errors Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Debit cards don't do anything for your credit history. It has to be something with a revolving credit line that gets reported back to the credit companies on a monthly basis. As you get things like car loans and mortgages, those will also be positives for your credit score. Paying your college loans on time will also give you a history.

From what I know, I don't think it's that simple. The doctors need a valid medical reason to induce labor, not just "Hey Doc, I need some $$$ from Uncle Sam, let's push this baby out". Otherwise, every woman would be induced weeks early because they are sick of being pregnant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends on the Dr. Our kid was due Jan 5, and we induced for pretty much tax reasons, with a mix of wanting to do it over Christmas Break. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a big difference between getting induced 2 days before the due date and 20 days before the due date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For our first kid she was induced on Tuesday morning and wasn't actually born until 38 hours later on Wednesday night after an emergency c-section. She was a few days past due by that point though. Second kid we knew was going to be another c-section so we basically got to pick the date. She was due late December but my wife wanted her before Christmas so we had her Dec 22. I tried to get her to wait until January so she wouldn't have a b-day and Christmas so close together, but the tax benefits were nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HuskyCaucasian Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 Big News From Mars? Rover Scientists Mum For Now They have some exciting new results from one of the rover's instruments. On the one hand, they'd like to tell everybody what they found, but on the other, they have to wait because they want to make sure their results are not just some fluke or error in their instrument. It's a bind scientists frequently find themselves in, because by their nature, scientists like to share their results. At the same time, they're cautious because no one likes to make a big announcement and then have to say "never mind." The exciting results are coming from an instrument in the rover called SAM. "We're getting data from SAM as we sit here and speak, and the data looks really interesting," John Grotzinger, the principal investigator for the rover mission, says during my visit last week to his office at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif. That's where data from SAM first arrive on Earth. "The science team is busily chewing away on it as it comes down," says Grotzinger. SAM is a kind of miniature chemistry lab. Put a sample of Martian soil or rock or even air inside SAM, and it will tell you what the sample is made of. Grotzinger says they recently put a soil sample in SAM, and the analysis shows something earthshaking. "This data is gonna be one for the history books. It's looking really good," he says.
