  EL SEGUNDO – Emerson Etem loves playing hockey, especially here, because he was born in north Long Beach and currently resides in the city with his wife and their son.
  For the past couple of weeks, Etem has been in training camp with the Kings as a camp invite, or PTO (professional tryout). As of Saturday morning, ahead of the team’s exhibition season finale against the Ducks at Staples Center, Etem had survived.

  Ever since the election of Donald Trump, many of our leading academic voices, like Paul Krugman, predicted everything from a stock market crash to a global recession. Slow growth, mainstream economists like Larry Summers, argued, was in the cards no matter who is in charge. That was then. Now the United States stands as by far the most dynamic high-income economy in the world.
  In such areas as economic growth, the U.S. is generally outperforming other rich countries — such as Japan, German

  When my 18-year-old son, Gabriel, was ready to buy his first car, his plan was to buy a high-mileage clunker for a few thousand bucks. But for a few thousand dollars more and a little help from dad, we decided to buy a late-model, low-mileage Japanese car with a salvage title. While salvage title cars do come with some risks, you can find quality cars, but you need to be careful. My son and I agree, our caution paid off.
