            <description> <![CDATA[ 
The Commerce Department recently reported that new home sales in the US have hit the lowest rate on record dating back to 1963. The January report of was the third straight month-month drop. New homes sales for January 2010 are down 6.1% percent from January 2009 which was the previous record low.
