Q: Finding a path in which the difference between min edge cost and max edge cost is minimum across all routes We have to find the route from a source to a sink in a graph in which the difference between the maximum costing edge and the minimum costing edge is minimum.
I tried using a recursive solution but it would fail in condition of cycles and a modified dijkstra which also failed.
Is there an algorithm where i will not have to find all routes and then find the minimum?

A: Sort the edges by weight (in non-decreasing order), then for each edge do the next: Add the next edges (the ones with greater or equal weight in non-decreasing order) until the source and sink are connected, then update your answer with de difference between the last edge, like this:
    ans = INFINITE
    for each Edge e1 in E (sorted by weight in non-decreasing order)
        clear the temporal graph
        for each Edge e2 in E
            if e2.weight >= e1.weight
                add e2 to the temporal graph
                if sink and source are connected in the temporal graph
                    ans = min(ans, e2.weight - e1.weight)
                    break
    print ans

If you use the UNION-FIND structure to add edges and check connectivity between source and sink you should get an overall time of O(edges^2)

A: OK, so you have a graph, and you need to find a path from one node (source) to another (sink) such that max edge weight on the path minus min edge weight on the path is minimized. You don't say whether your graph is directed, can have negative edge weights, or has cycles, so lets assume a "yes" answer to all these questions.
When computing your path "score" (maximum difference between edge weights), we observe these are similar to path distances: you could have a path from A to B that scores higher (undesirable) or lower (desirable). If we treat path scores like path weights we observe that as we build a path by adding new edges, the path score (=weight) can only increase: given a path A->B->C where weight(A->B)=1 and weight(B->C)=5, yielding a path score of 4, if I add edge C->D to the path A->B->C, the path score can only increase or stay the same: the difference between minimum edge weight and maximum edge weight will not be lower than 4.
The conclusion from all of this is that we can explore the graph looking for best paths as if we are looking for optimal path in a graph with no negative edges. However, there could be (and likely to be, given the connectivity described) cycles. This means that Dijkstra's algorithm, properly implemented, will have optimal performance relative to this graph's topology given what we know today.
No solution without full graph exploration
One may be misled into thinking that we can make locally good decisions about which edge should belong to the optimal path without exploring the whole graph. The following subgraph illustrates the problem with this:

Say you've need a path from A to F, and you are at node B. Given everything you know, you'd choose a path to C, as it minimizes the path score. What you don't know (yet) is that the next edge in that path will cause the score of this path to increase substantially. If you knew that you would have chosen the edge B->D as a next element in an optimal path.

Karnaphuli Paper Mills in crisis with 5,000-tonne unsold paper

Paper importers, printing and packaging sectors leaders urge reduction of import duty
Paper industry worth thousands of crores in Bogura
About 5,000 tonnes of paper worth Tk50 crore remains unsold in the warehouse
The state-owned Karnaphuli Paper Mills (KPM) is facing difficulties as a large quantity of the produced paper remains unsold due to the decreased demand from government organisations, its main customer, amid the pandemic.
About 5,000 tonnes of paper worth Tk50 crore, produced a year ago, is lying unsold in the warehouse, said a KPM official.
"If we do not get buyers within the stipulated time, there is a risk that the unsold paper will be ruined, causing losses," said HM Anisuzzaman, commercial manager of the company.
Due to the decrease in sales, the company cannot repay the loan taken from the Bangladesh Chemical Industries Corporation (BCIC), said sources at the company.
The KPM took out a Tk27 crore loan from the BCIC last year to import raw materials. They produced paper as planned, but the demand for products at government organisations, including the National Election Commission and various public universities, declined due to the Covid-19 crisis.
The National Curriculum and Textbook Board (NCTB) has stopped purchasing paper from the KPM during the crisis. Although the BG Press currently buys a limited quantity of paper from the KPM, the latter's stock is growing every day, leading to a major financial crisis, said company officials.
One of the largest paper mills in the subcontinent lagged behind commercially due to the establishment of paper mills in the private sector and paper imports in the last two decades. To avoid the crisis, the government directed agencies concerned to purchase all types of paper from the KPM for government work.
A handful of institutions have been complying with the directive of the Prime Minister's Office, but most of them are not. Consequently, the company has been suffering losses every year instead of making profits, said KPM officials.
They said the KPM has continued production in consultation with the BCIC, the industry ministry and the finance ministry to reduce losses gradually after last year's lockdown ended.
The daily production capacity of KPM is 70-80 tonne, but currently it is producing only 8-10 tonne per day. Despite reducing the production, unsold paper in its stock is piling up.
The KPM's highest production in recent years was in 2016 – 80 tonnes daily. At that time, they sold around 15,000-16,000 tonnes of paper in a year.
But corruption, mismanagement, and failure to renovate the factory on time have reduced the efficiency of the long-running paper mill. The production cost is exceeding the market price as the factory has been operating at one-sixth or one-seventh of its capacity. All these factors are contributing to the company's big losses every year, said the officials.
The factory currently employs 225 permanent and 300 temporary workers and its monthly expenditure is at least Tk5 crore including the salaries of the employees and workers.
It needs to produce and sell at least 1,500 tonnes of paper per month to make profit after bearing all expenses, but, currently it is producing only 300-350 tonnes per month, said officials.
Pakistan Industrial Development Corporation established the Karnaphuli Paper Mills in 1953 at Chandraghona in Kaptaiupazila of Rangamati district.
Due to initial shortcomings in its management, the Pakistan government in 1964 sold KPM to Dawood Group, which modernised it. When Bangladesh became independent in 1971, the Bangladesh Industrial Development Corporation acquired the paper mill.

Osaka even with Hsieh in Stuttgart; Nadal through in Barcelona
Naomi Osaka serves to Su-Wei Hsieh during their round-of-16 match in Stuttgart on Thursday. Agence France-Presse
World number one Naomi Osaka defeated Hsieh Su-wei 6-4, 6-3 in her first clay court match of the season in Stuttgart on Thursday.
US and Australian Open champion Osaka, who lost to Taiwanese veteran Hsieh in Miami last month, secured a place in the quarter-finals against Croatia's Donna Vekic.
Osaka, 21, broke Hsieh three times in total to beat Hsieh for the second time in three attempts this year, having also defeated her on the way to lifting the title in Melbourne.
"She's a really tricky opponent. You never really know what she's going to do," said Osaka.
Osaka needed 84 minutes to dispatch the unconventional Hsieh, a win that ensures she will hold on to top spot for at least another week.
She is less than 200 points ahead of Simona Halep in the WTA rankings, although the Romanian pulled out of this week's tournament with a hip injury.
Top seed Osaka fought off the only two break points she faced, in a lengthy service hold for 2-all in the opening set, before breaking Hsieh in the following game.
That was sufficient to wrap up the first set, and a Hsieh double-fault handed Osaka a break to start the second before she closed out victory with another service break in a performance that featured 22 winners and just 16 unforced errors.
The Japanese star arrived in Stuttgart, where she last played in Stuttgart as a qualifier in 2017, after suffering early exits in her last three tournaments.
"Definitely I've put a lot on pressure on myself and found it hard to deal with in the first few tournaments," said Osaka. "I'm really having fun now though."
Osaka will meet Vekic, a 6-1, 7-5 winner over Daria Kasatkina, for a spot in the last four, while Latvian seventh seed Anastasija Sevastova defeated Germany's Laura Siegemund 6-4, 6-3. Later, Kiki Bertens also reached the quarterfinals by beating Swiss Belinda Bencic in three sets, 4-6, 6-3, 6-4.
Bertens, the number seven in the world, had her serve clicking against Bencic. She had no less than twenty aces, a personal record, against the Swiss who is thirteen places lower in the world ranking.
Meanwhile, Rafael Nadal showed no mercy towards an emotional David Ferrer as he eased into the quarter-finals of the Barcelona Open on Thursday with a straight-sets victory.
Ferrer is set to retire after the Madrid Open next month and made a tearful exit on what was his last appearance at this tournament.
But there was no room for sentiment for Nadal, who won 6-3, 6-3 to take one step closer to a record 12th Barcelona title.
Third seed and 2017 finalist, Dominic Thiem, was impressive in a 7-5, 6-1 victory over Spaniard Jaume Munar in cold and overcast conditions on Thursday at the Barcelona Open Banc Sabadell.
He will next face France's Benoit Paire, the recent Grand Prix Hassan II champion (d. Andujar) or Argentina's Guido Pella, the Brasil Open titlist (d. Garin) in February. Kei Nishikori meanwhile, swept into the quarter-finals with a 6-1 6-3 win over Felix Auger-Aliassime on Thursday.
The seventh-ranked Japanese star, eliminated in the second round in Monte Carlo last week, broke the Canadian teenager, ranked 31st, in the opening game of the match. Nishikori then broke again in the fifth and seventh games to take the set.
After Nishikori broke in the fourth game of the second set, Auger-Aliassime began to fight back. The 18-year-old had five break points in the next game, before the fourth seed held.
The Canadian finally broke, to love, in the seventh game but Nishikori broke straight back and served out to win the match. In the other early match, seventh seeded Russian Daniil Medvedev beat American Mackenzie McDonald 6-3, 6-2.
Halep battles into Miami 4th round clash with Venus
Simona Halep kept alive hopes of regaining the world number one ranking Sunday, beating Polona Hercog 5-7, 7-6 (7/1), 6-2 to reach the last 16 of the WTA and ATP Miami Open.
Federer wary of Medvedev after victory; Halep downs Venus in Miami Open
Roger Federer admits he faces a real battle to land the 101st title of his career with the in-form Daniil Medvedev next up after Serbian Filip Krajinovic was dispatched 7-5 6-3 on Monday at the ATP and WTA Miami Open. The Swiss superstar produced an excellent all-round performance despite being tested by the world number 103 who belied his lowly ranking by producing some excellent tennis during an exciting first set.

Roger Federer is preparing himself for a barrage of Kevin Anderson big serves after the Swiss superstar sealed his place in the ATP and WTA Miami Open quarter-finals in just 61 minutes on Wednesday.
Osaka silent over ex-coach lawsuit as Miami Open begins

Spectre and Meltdown Vulnerabilities
Two major vulnerabilities were publicly disclosed in January 2018, known to the industry and the general public as Spectre and Meltdown. These vulnerabilities pose a major risk to the confidentiality of information processed by CPUs from the three main manufacturers: Intel, AMD, and ARM.
At the start of January there were two major vulnerabilities that were publicly disclosed, known to the industry and the general public as Spectre and Meltdown (https://spectreattack.com/). These vulnerabilities pose a major risk to the confidentiality of information processed by CPUs from the three main manufacturers (It is also believed to affect CPUs from other manufactures such as IBM (Power) and Oracle (Sparc)): Intel, AMD, and ARM.
As these vulnerabilities were caused by design flaws in the hardware itself all operating systems will require workaround patches; including Windows, MacOS, BSD, Linux distributions, and mobile operating systems (including iOS and Android). This article will focus on the reality and impact of the risks and mitigations for businesses, other organisations, and individuals rather than the technical complexities.
Initially, an embargo was in-place for revealing the details of these vulnerabilities, which was due to be lifted on January 9th 2018. However, a researcher was able to reverse engineer a security patch that led to the information on the vulnerability being released prematurely. Due to this early disclosure of information some vendors were not able to release their security updates, and as such information has been released to the public gradually.
SureCloud have waited for a reasonable baseline of reliable information to be released before offering our recommendations here. Due to the nature of how these issues came to light it is important to act on verified and trustworthy intelligence. That being said, both Spectre and Meltdown remain a moving target, and as such we intend on updating this article as new information becomes available.
The Bugs
Meltdown and Spectre are both caused by hardware issues in the "speculative execution" CPU feature. By exploiting these vulnerabilities, it has been shown that an unprivileged application can read the memory of other applications, which can include high-privileged system memory. Proof-of-concepts have shown that exploitation is possible in a variety of ways; for example, the following attack vectors have already been demonstrated:
Malicious programs reading information (e.g. passwords) from other users.
Malicious programs reading information from other virtual machines that share the same CPU.
Malicious JavaScript loaded into a browser that would harvest information from the computer.
However, due to the vulnerabilities' flexible nature it is possible that other services could be exploited in similar ways. Concerningly, there is no requirement for a malicious program or code to utilise elevated privileges in order to perform a successful exploitation of these weaknesses; as such is almost impossible to actively or retroactively detect if information has been breached from the CPU.
Is My Organisation Affected?
The short answer is "yes", but the risk to each organisation will vary. With the attack vectors that are currently available one of the greatest risks is to virtual machines that share CPUs with other virtual machines that are not managed by the organisation. The impact of this would be that an attacker could execute malicious code and steal other tenant information whilst it is being processed by the CPU. Some of those that are at the greatest risk are organisations using virtual private server vendors who have not already deployed the various patches.
There are other key risks, particularly to browsers loading web pages containing malicious JavaScript. However, currently there is limited proof-of-concept code available that would be useful for an attacker.
Detection of Insecure Systems
There have been some tools released to assist in verifying whether a system is still vulnerable to these attacks. Furthermore SureCloud have rolled out updates to the SureCloud vulnerability scanning platform for clients with on-demand scanning to be able to detect many of these issues through missing security updates. However, patches and known detection methods continue to be released as time moves forward and we will be updating our capabilities over the coming weeks as more information becomes available.
Microsoft have released an official PowerShell tool that can be used to verify whether your system(s) are affected by this vulnerability:
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/4073119/protect-against-speculative-execution-side-channel-vulnerabilities-in
A third-party tool for windows has also been released that does not require PowerShell for detection purposes:
https://ionescu007.github.io/SpecuCheck/
A tool for Linux has been released to check if your system is vulnerable to the Meltdown variant of the vulnerability:
https://github.com/raphaelsc/Am-I-affected-by-Meltdown
Mitigations
Due to the severity of this issue, the UK National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) has provided guidance on mitigating these bugs (https://www.ncsc.gov.uk/guidance/meltdown-and-spectre-guidance) and this is being regularly updated.
Most critically, it is important to ensure that systems and software packages are patched against these issues wherever patches are available. Patches have been released for Windows . Patches for Linux have been created, and are expected to be available within most distributions . Many other operating system and software vendors have already released patches, or will be in the near future. It is key that organisations are running on supported operating systems and software to ensure that they can receive these critical security updates.
There have been some reported issues applying patches for these vulnerabilities, including stability and performance problems. We have detailed the issues that we know about below, but we strongly recommend thoroughly testing these patches before rolling them out to production systems.
There have been some issues identified with certain anti-virus (AV) programs on Windows, causing the Blue Screen of Death once the patches have been applied. Microsoft are maintaining a whitelist of configurations that do not crash, but this may cause a delay with these critical patches being applied, and may require that AV solutions are updated first.
Another reported problem is that some users of AMD CPUs are left unable to boot their operating system or reverse the changes after applying these patches .
Meltdown and Spectre affect many different layers of the system, and it should be noted that both operating system and individual software packages may need updating. Simply applying the requisite operating system patches will not be enough to resolve all variants of these vulnerabilities.
CPU manufacturers are likely to release microcode updates for their processors that help to mitigate some variants of the vulnerabilities . These are expected to be applied on boot after patching most operating systems, but separate BIOS/EFI patches may also be released to make these changes permanent.
As the exploits continue to improve, outdated web browsers are expected to become a primary attack vector for these vulnerabilities. Currently there are new versions of Firefox and Chrome which have mitigations in place. However, the Chrome patch is not yet automatically applied. It is currently recommended to enable "site isolation" in Chrome to mitigate the risk ahead of the patch being deployed.
Patched Firefox: 57.0.4 and above
Patched Chrome: v64 and above
Patched Safari: Upcoming
Patched Internet Explorer: Included in 03/01/2018 security update

# Expose VM Devices

### Summary

We would like to allow the user to see more information regarding the devices that attached to a vm.
VM devices are mostly virtual hardware devices used in the vm,
like controllers, PCI cards and more.

### Owner

*   Name: Omer Frenkel
*   Email: ofrenkel@redhat.com

### Current Status

*   Status: Design
*   Target release: 3.6

### Detailed Description

currently (oVirt 3.5), only some of the device are visible to the user,
and also for these devices not all information is exposed.

some examples:
on add/edit vm, user can select to use sound, display device, smart-card and more.
Still the user cannot see the controllers used for these devices,
and more information on every device like address, type in the system and other information that stored in the system.
**\1**
VM devices are widely used in the ovirt engine, but merely exposed in UI and API,
The idea of this feature is to allow users to see more information of devices,
and prepare the ground for future work, like allowing setting device address and more.
for every device we will show:

      * icon per type
      * Type: like USB, Controller, Disk...
      * address
      * boot order (if relevant)
      * plugged
      * readonly
      * engine managed
      * alias
      * spec params
      * custom properties

#### UI

Add new sub tab for VMs and Templates: Devices
This sub tab will contain a list of all VM devices
need to consider what actions (if any) we would like to have in the new sub tab.

#### REST API

Add new sub collection for VMs and Templates: Devices
This will be a collection of all VM devices

### UI Mock-Ups

*   TODO - sub tab view with icons for devices

![](TODO.png "TODO.png")

### Open Issues

*   Expose "grouping" of devices?

today in the engine db we have "general" type that can be used,
for example: Disk, Floppy and CD are all of general-type "Disk"
and sound,ac97,ich6 are sound
but some has no group, like smartcard,watchdog, etc..
another option for grouping is analyzing the address,
and group with "pci","ide" and so.
the downside of this approach is that it is very general,
and probably most devices will just be PCI and it will be useless
another issue is that address is available only after the vm was run.

### Comments and Discussion

*   Refer to [Talk:Expose VM Devices](Talk:Expose VM Devices)

Solar Seminar
17. Oct 2018 | Hanoi
Solar Seminar with EVN PECC1 on 15 October
Ambassador Designate Grete Løchen with EVN PECC1 leaders, Vietnamese participants and Norwegian solar companies.
Ambassador Designate Grete Løchen attended and delivered the speech at the Seminar "Norwegian solutions for solar power". The event was arranged by the Norwegian Embassy in Hanoi, Innovation Norway, and the Power Engineering Consulting JSC 1 under the Electricity of Vietnam (EVN PECC1).
Chairman-General Director of EVN PECC1 Dr. Pham Nguyen Hung!
Ladies and Gentlemen!
It is a great pleasure for me to be present here today and welcome you all to this Norwegian Solar seminar.
Let me start by borrowing an expression from Vietnam: Doi Moi (i.e. Reform). Since the late 80's Vietnam has had its economic Doi Moi with impressive results; quickly becoming one of the fastest growing emerging economies, with high investment attraction. Vietnam has almost completely eliminated poverty from 58% in 1993 to 10% in 2016.
Now we need a Climate Doi Moi. Climate change is one of the most pressing global challenges today. UN Secretary General's address to the General Assembly in September this year urged all UN member states to follow up on their commitments under the Paris Agreement with greater ambition and a sense of urgency. We have no time to loose. Vietnam is one of the countries most affected by climate change. In the worst scenario the sea level could rise up to one metre and permanently flood 40% of the Mekong Delta by 2100. Vietnam is aiming to cut 8% of its total emissions between 2021-2030. Most of the cuts would have to come from the energy sector as approximately 72% of the country's emissions come from producing electricity.
Climate action is not just the right thing to do but also presents a tremendous development opportunity. It could enhance sustainable economic growth and create millions of new jobs. Climate action such as investing in renewable energy is nothing else than smart business.
Vietnam has significant exploitable renewable eneregy potential, solar being one them. According to a UNDP report released last week it is estimated that Vietnam can deploy 85,000 megawatt of solar PV (photovoltaic) generation capacity. Vietnam has also a large potential for saving on electricity-use, energy efficiency, with the manufacturing sector offering the largest potential for such savings. At the moment at least 10 billion USD of external capital is believed to be available, amounting to almost 50% of the total investment needed to support Vietnam's transition to cleaner energy and energy saving.
Why choose Norway as an investor and partner in renewable energy?
We have a long history in renewable energy. Modern Norway was built and industrialized when we started to utilize our rivers and waterfalls to produce electricity more than 125 years ago. Hydropower, a renewable energy source, is still the backbone of the Norwegian power system and will remain so in the foreseeable future.
Since then Norway has continued to develop clean energy resources and from the early 1990s our country has been one of the pioneers in developing a solar PV (photovoltaic) industry. This has been possible due to the interactive cooperation in innovation between Government, Industry and Research organizations. We consider this triple interactive Innovation Model to be the main reason that a small country like Norway has been able to succeed internationally with our development of a strong Solar PV industry.
Let me briefly comment the 5 Norwegian companies present here today:
Scatec Solar has since its establishment in 2001, acquired extensive knowledge and experience across the complete lifecycle of solar power plants, actively seeking early entry into new markets offering Investment opportunities.
Ocean Sun, being a new Norwegian player in the solar sector, has introduced an efficient, low cost and durable solution for floating solar, where all system components are based on environmental friendly materials with a minimal CO2 footprint.
Multiconsult is an important company in the Norwegian clean energy sector being among our leading firms of consulting engineers and designers. The company has played an important role in Norway's development and economic growth, not at least within hydropower and solar power.
The international accredited registrar and classification society DNV GL has currently 350 offices operating in more than 100 countries including Vietnam, and provides services for several industries including renewable energy covering technologies, financing and operation of solar projects.
Finally, we have Norfund here today, being the Norwegian Investment Fund for Developing Countries, supplying risk capital for investments in renewable energy, food and agri-business and into financial institutions. Norfund is an active, strategic minority investor, offering risk capital and expertise to help building sustainable businesses in developing countries. Currently the company has a committed portfolio of about 2 billion USD.
Why solar in Vietnam?
Setting up a solar plant is faster than establishing other thermal power plants.
Solar is cheaper than alternatives: Solar costs have fallen 80% in the last decade and downward trend is forecasted to continue. Solar will be cheaper than coal in the next decade and of course cleaner.
Solar creates more jobs than alternatives: One 50 MWp solar plant creates 500-800 low-skilled construction jobs for local community. Thermal power plants mostly require highly specialized labour.
Solar is cleaner than alternatives: Solar has no local air emissions, doesn't require cooling water, and uses no dangerous chemicals that can pollute surroundings.
Based on this it is a pleasure for me to see some recent positive development of the legal framework to support the Vietnamese solar market, including the new solar feed-in tariff, and the standard power purchase agreement. I have also been informed that your Ministry of Industry and Trade have added 8.000 MW of utility scale solar power projects in the National Master Plan for Solar Development, and that another 10.000 MW are in the waiting list. Expanding the renewable energy capacity and enhancing energy efficiency will definitely improve Vietnam's energy independence, lesser expenditures on fossil fuel purchase, enhance sustainable economic growth and reduce environmental pollution and health problems due to pollution from the energy sector.
The Norwegian companies present here today are eager to look for opportunities to cooperate with local partners to develop solar projects in Vietnam.
In this context, the Norwegian Embassy and Innovation Norway, in cooperation with EVN PECC1, are very happy to organize this solar seminar.
I wish this initiative shall contribute to the development of a strong and sustainable solar business in Vietnam and an important contribution to what I called a Climate Doi Moi.

There's more credit score information available than ever, but unfortunately, many consumers continue to hold harmful misconceptions about credit scores. Here are 20 credit score myths and the truth about each.
A bad credit score will only last forever if you continue to make choices that hurt your credit score, i.e., paying late, maxing out your credit cards, letting bills go to collections, etc. Otherwise, if you start managing your credit well, your credit score will improve with time.
It only takes a few months to ruin a good credit score. At six months past due, your account will be charged-off, which is one of the worst things you can do to your credit score. Multiple charge-offs or collections can completely ruin your credit score.
You can check your credit as many times as you want without hurting your credit score as long as you're using credit scoring services, and not mortgage lenders, to check your score.
How much money you have only indirectly affects your credit score. Income isn't a factor in your credit score. However, bill payment habits (which are impacted partially by your income) do factor into your credit score. No matter how much money you have, paying your bills on time is the best thing you can do for your credit score.
Each person has several credit scores because there are several different credit scoring models. And for each credit scoring model, there are three different credit scores for each of the major credit bureaus.
The credit score you get online, whether free or purchased, is an educational credit score and typically not the same credit score your lender is going to use. While the educational credit score can give you a general idea of your credit health, you can't take for granted that you'll be approved based on that score.
You and your spouse will continue to maintain separate credit histories and credit scores after you tie the knot. Joint accounts will affect both of your credit scores, but individually-held accounts will affect only that account holder's credit score.
Bad news for anyone who applied for a prepaid or debit card hoping to improve their credit score: there is no "credit" aspect to debit or prepaid cards and your history with these cards isn't factored into your credit score. Credit cards and loans are the primary financial products that impact credit scores.
It is against the law for employers to use credit scores to screen job applicants. The media routinely gets this fact wrong because people do not understand that credit scores and credit reports are not the same things. An employer can check your credit report but not your credit score.
Closing a credit card is more likely to hurt your credit score than to help it, particularly if you close the card with a balance. Leaving accounts open, especially if they're in good standing, is typically better for your credit score.
Bank balances aren't a factor used to calculate your credit score. There may be a correlation between good savings habits and good credit scores, but a person can have a bad credit score and a lot of money in the bank if they're not using the money to pay their bills on time each month.
Paying a collection account can help your credit score in the long run, but don't expect an immediate increase from paying a collection. Once the collection is on your credit report, it factors into your credit score until the credit reporting time limit runs out. There's an exception for collections under $100, but only with newer credit scoring models that ignore these low collection amounts.
A bad credit score makes it harder to get approved, but it's not the only factor that creditors and lenders consider when they're evaluating your creditworthiness. Income and level of debt are other factors that play a role. You can be approved even with a bad credit score, but required to pay a security deposit or a higher interest rate.
Most negative information stays on your credit report for seven years, but as negative information ages, it impacts your credit scoreless. You can improve your credit score before the negative accounts fall off if you make timely payments and keep a reasonable level of debt going forward.
You can dispute credit report information that you believe to be inaccurate, but that doesn't guarantee the information will be deleted. And, if your dispute is returned in your favor, there's no guarantee your credit score will go up.
The inquiries made when you apply for new credit are 10% of your credit score. Inquiries can hurt your credit score, but the exact effect on your credit score depends on all the other information on your credit score. It's possible that your credit score may not move at all after you've made an application for credit.
You need to use credit products to build a good credit score. That can be as simple as opening a credit card, charging a small amount with it each month, then paying it off every month. You don't have to - and shouldn't - create more debt than you can afford to build a good credit score.
Your level of debt is a factor in your credit score, but it comes second to payment history. If you paid off your debt after a bout of bad credit, it might take several months, years even, for your credit score to rebound. And if you're debt-free because of bankruptcy, then you have the burden of bankruptcy weighing on your credit score.
Every consumer should check their credit scores and credit reports periodically throughout the year – one time at a minimum – to verify their credit health. Monitoring your credit score regularly at least lets you confirm that you're managing your credit well.


Last week was kaiju-heavy, but PACIFIC RIM is a film of techno tyrants as well and the latest teaser poster is a good, raucous look at Japan's jaeger, Coyote Tango.
Coyote joins the likes of Gipsy Danger and Crimson Typhoon, man-made monsters created to do battle with Kaiju who've risen from the sea and subsequently threaten humanity. Typing that out has left me wide-eyed, as new monster clashing mythology from Guillermo del Toro really threatens to push me into goofy excitement.
PACIFIC RIM is set years after kaiju have become a part of life, when even the Jaegers are proving nearly defenseless. On the verge of defeat, the forces defending mankind have no choice but to turn to two unlikely heroes—a washed up former pilot (Charlie Hunnam) and an untested trainee (Rinko Kikuchi)—who are teamed to drive a legendary but seemingly obsolete Jaeger from the past. Together, they stand as mankind's last hope against the mounting apocalypse.
Idris Elba, Charlie Day and Ron Perlman co-star. PACIFIC RIM is out July 12. For more, keep an eye on the official Facebook.
