On an Action News 5 report last week, Andy reported that negative information stays on your credit report for seven years. Bankruptcies stay on your report even longer:  up to ten years.

That's why now is the time to review your credit report and not wait until something pops up. Odysseas Papadimitriou, CEO of the credit card comparison site CardHub.com., offered these tips for limiting errors on your credit report:

* REVIEW YOUR CREDIT REPORTS QUARTERLY. "We're all entitled to a free copy of each of our major credit reports once every 12 months," said Papadimitriou. "Look at one report each quarter."

Scan your reports for open lines of credit you're not losing or have closed, addresses where you never lived and unfamiliar credit inquiries.

(WMC-TV) - Have you ever considered cloth diapers?  Are the first images that pop in your head large swaths of fabric, pins and plastic pants?  If so, then you need to find out how different modern cloth diapers are now.

The modern cloth diaper systems are pin-less, easy to use and better for the environment.  Another important factor to busy parents is that modern cloth diapers are easy to wash.  The fabrics used now are soft, colorful and comfortable on the delicate skin of babies.  They are also easier on the environment. 

In the United States alone, 49 million diapers per day (18 billion per year) are thrown away.  Disposable diapers go into landfills in which (under ideal conditions) it is estimated that it would take hundreds of years to decompose.   Each baby in cloth diapers will help to divert many of these diapers from municipal landfills.
