She’s a retired forklift operator who has lung disease and high blood pressure. Her husband, James, 70, drives a dump truck and has a potentially dangerous irregular h

  CHICAGO — Tyler Anderson’s miserable season in 2023 has turned so emphatically in 2024 that he’s been more than simply a successful pitcher.
  He’s an All-Star.
  The Angels left-hander was named to his second All-Star Game on Sunday afternoon, the only member of the Angels to be selected.
  Anderson, a 34-year-old in the second year of a three-year, $39-million deal, earned the nod with a 2.81 ERA in 18 starts. Last season he had a 5.43 ERA, which was so bad that the Angels br

  So now what? Give up on the point and get ready for the next? Ha. Not this kid. Alcaraz popped to his feet, sprinted to his left to get to a backhand wide of the doubles alley, then raced forward to reach a short shot and, eventually, watc

  As a Certified Public Accountant and Certified Financial Planner, one consistent piece of advice I would give to my clients was never to cosign on a loan. When doing so, you agree to be responsible for the debt should the original borrower miss a payment or stop paying altogether. It’s awkward. And I’ve seen sincere people who wanted to help a friend or a relative find themselves in a financial bind because they were kind to someone who has now fallen into hard times, or turned out t

  Something as simple as walking down the street can become a much more tense moment if you are LGBTQ+, or a person of color.
  Because of this, new California data about anti-LGBTQ+ attacks — along with hateful acts against diverse, religious groups — being on the rise is “not surprising,” said Khloe Rios-Wyatt, president and CEO of Alianza Translatinx.
