A Deeper Look at Late Payments and FICO Scores by Barry Paperno
2008-06-05 10:01:00 While anyone can tell you that late payments will hurt a credit score, what most people don?t know is that there are subtleties in just how the FICO scoring formula treats one late payment from another. For example, some typical questions about late payments are… Why would someone with a 90 day late have a ...

2008-06-05 00:56:00 Remember when we told you about PETA's Super Chick Sisters video game, that was based on the Super Mario Brothers game but starred chicks headed to KFC to save Pamela Anderson from Colonel Sanders?

New Millennium Theatre?s ?Villains? Scores Originality With Anti-Hero Plotl
2008-06-04 10:23:00 CHICAGO ? In an unrevealed abandoned warehouse in the seedy underbelly of Chicago?s north side that is the Uptown neighborhood, a group of super villains met last Saturday night to plot and scheme their next attack against law-abiding society. Well, maybe not quite, but the overlooked adversaries of America?s superheroes did crack wise, bicker and whine in New Millennium Theatre?s production of ?Villains? at Chicago?s National Pastime Theater. The result? Imagine if ?F Troop? tried to pull off a diamond heist.

2008-06-03 04:36:00 Epidemiology. 2006 Jul;17(4):473-4. LinksPaternal age and Apgar scores of newborn infants.Sun Y, Vestergaard M, Zhu JL, Madsen KM, Olsen J.The Danish Epidemiology Science Centre; Department of Epidemiology, Institute of Public Health, University of Aarhus, Denmark. ys@soci.au.dkBACKGROUND: New evidence suggests that advanced paternal age is a reproductive hazard, but we do not know whether paternal age affects the physical conditions of newborn infants as measured by the Apgar score. METHODS: We conducted a register-based cohort study of 70,347 couples and their first singleton infants by using data from the Danish Fertility Database (1980-1996). Information on Apgar score was obtained by linking the children to the National Birth Register. RESULTS: The odds ratio for having a baby with a 1-minute Apgar score of 1-3 was 1.64 (95% confidence interval = 1.08-2.48) for fathers 45 to 49 years of age and 1.49 (0.76-2.94) for fathers 50+ years compared with fathers 20 to 29 years (P for t...

Credit Scores and Auto Insurance
2008-05-31 14:51:00 Credit Scores and Auto InsuranceBy: Rob ParkerIn today's world your credit score is used for almost everything and your credit history is examined when you apply for mortgages, personal loans, bank accounts, credit cards, and sometimes even when you're applying for a new job. As well, your credit score is a factor in whether or not you can obtain auto insurance, and how much you will pay for it.Insurance companies use credit scoring to determine your insurability because they believe there is a correlation between your consumer credit history and whether or not they are likely to have to pay claims on your behalf. They also feel that people with good credit are less likely to suffer from severe insurance losses.While most insurance companies also use your age, driving record, type of vehicle and your place of residence to determine your premium, your credit score is also factored in. If you don't have a credit history at all you may not be eligible for some discounts, and your pr...

Tuesday Toot - Adam scores his first hockey goal
2008-05-27 13:15:00 Adam (navy blue) faces off against his friend Timmy.I don't remember when Adam scored his first soccer goal, but I do know that by the second season, he was scoring several goals per game. He would get excited and do his little victory dance, as seen here. Nowadays, he scores soccer goals and just casually walks back to the starting line, almost as if he is disappointed that play has been interrupted (something like a slot machine addict being disappointed when they hit a jackpot). He is too proud or jaded to do a victory dance, but he does keep track of exactly how many goals he scores. OK, I guess he is still quietly proud of his goals.Adam started playing ice hockey last September and a hockey goal has been far more elusive. There is a wide range of skills among the players, so in his first 12 week session, he barely even got to touch the puck. He settled into playing defense, and spent most of his time batting the puck out of the defensive zone, or hugging the blue line i...

Markets Trumping Credit Scores
2008-05-26 15:43:00 In a Realty Times article today Blanche Evans points out that banks are "turning the clock back to 1975," when higher downpayments were required to purchase a home. This comes on the heels of FNMA's abandonment of their "declining markets" policy just ten days ago. So what's happening here? Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac can renounce any policy they want with regard to markets, but if the discussion is about downpayments of less than 20%, the private mortgage insurance companies are the ones making the rules. In fact, it seems that those companies are less concerned about creditworthiness of borrowers than about the local market. There is anecdotal evidence that people with superior credit scores (over 800) are still experiencing difficulties obtaining mortgages with less than 20% down. Those mortgage insurance companies are still smarting under some huge losses (real and anticipated), and want to remove all risk. Continuing risk avoidance on t...

Power scores (or at least my attempt)
2008-05-19 17:46:00 A while ago, I took on the task of building a better speed score. Bill James had come up with his formula some time ago, and for what it’s worth, I found that his formula (warning: PDF) was pretty good. My formula was much more stable over time… but it was also a lot harder to calculate. So, while we can get a single number to describe speed, something that has a bearing on several different events in a game (stolen bases, triples, staying out of a double play), I’ve never seen an attempt made at a “power score.” I figured I might as well give it a shot. First, we identify events in a game that might involve “power.” For example, power would clearly be involved in home run hitting, but what else might be involved? I made a list of stats and rates that might just be involved. Home runs per fly ball. It’s hard to hit a home run on a ground ball. But, a player with power would likely have the power to put a fly ball over the fence. Fly...
