    Coronavirus may drive mortgage rates to new lows
    There is no known vaccine. Will the Coronavirus epidemic that has sickened 28,000 people and taken the lives of 560 souls turn into a pandemic?
    Isolation measures go only so far. And, that’s not working too well as coronavirus has spread to 25 countries, including the U.S. where we have 12 reported cases in six states, including California.
    How will this tragedy affect the U.S. housing market and mortgage rates? Exactly when will we hit (mortgage rate) bottom? And, what is that interest ra

    MONTREAL — Coach Dallas Eakins again slotted center Sam Steel between left wing Max Jones and right wing Ondrej Kase for the Ducks’ game Thursday against the Montreal Canadiens.
    Why should Eakins break up that line now that they’ve been together for the past six weeks?
    In the Ducks’ season-long search for consistency, Eakins has found some in a youthful second line. They have worked well together, seemingly improving with each passing game, a classic example of three diff

    Senior Moments: Spending family time with the elephants
    They don’t send candy or heart-shaped jewelry. They just send love. And not just on Valentine’s Day.
    Elephants, or the ellys, as my daughter used to call them, celebrate family year-round. I was particularly in tune to this on my recent trip to the San Diego Safari Park where I was doing some family bonding of my own.
    Two of our favorite New York cousins, Susan and Nick, were in San Diego for an extended stay and invited us for the weekend. Including a trip to the wildlife park.
