Last Monday and Tuesday, the Eastern Kentucky University men's golf team placed 13th in a field of 32 teams at the C&F Bank Intercollegiate hosted by William and Mary in Williamsburg, VA.
The event was contested on the River Course at Kingsmill, a par-70, 6,765-yard course. It was scheduled for three rounds over three days but old Mother Nature showed her teeth once again and shortened play to one 18-hole round.
Tennessee, 285, captured the team title by two shots over Florida State and Michigan, 287. The Colonels were within three shots of the Top 10 with an 18-hole total of 297.
Senior Johan Eriksson led EKU with a 3-over 73 and tied for 25th overall. Stuart Witt, 74, tied for 40th. Taylor Riggs and Garrett Hinton, 75, tied for 58th. Daniel DeLuca, 82, tied for 144th.
It was an excellent effort by the Colonels in a large, tough field of top notch teams.
Next up for the Colonels is the Grub Mart Intercollegiate hosted by Jacksonville State on April 8 and 9.
EKU women finish ninth in 14-team field
The Lady Colonels (982) finished ahead of two Ohio Valley Conference favorites — Jacksonville State (983) and Murray State (1003) — in the John Kirk/Panther Intercollegiate hosted by Georgia State.
The event was contested at Eagle's Landing Country Club, a par-72, 6,100-yard course, located in Stockbridge, Ga.
Kent State, 931, claimed the team title and Old Dominion, 942, was second.
Freshman Anna Gleixner led EKU and tied for 22nd overall with a three-round total of 240. Fellow freshman Becky Sharp, 244, tied for 33rd. April Emerson, 249, and Kristen Dorsey, 249, tied for 46th.
The ladies will be back in action on Friday and Saturday when they play host to the Colonel Classic at Arlington.
I think both the men's and women's golf teams have done remarkably well considering the few days they have got to practice in this blankety-blank weather. This early time of the year definitely favors the teams that are in the southern hemisphere and get in a lot of practice rounds.
It looks like spring is on the horizon so maybe you both can catch up and step into that winners circle.
Special thanks to Kevin Britton, assistant director of athletic public relations at EKU, for keeping me posted.
Headed for Augusta
Next week on Wednesday, Carolyn and I will be headed for Augusta, Ga., and the Golf Writers Association of America awards ceremony.
It is always held the night before the start of the Masters.
This year the awards will be hosted by Jim Rosaforte and the honors go to: Rory McIlroy — Male Player of the Year; Stacy Lewis — Female Player of the Year; Roger Chapman — Senior Player of the Year; David Fay — William D. Richardson Award, to recognize an individual who has consistently made an outstanding contribution to golf; K. J. Choi — The Charlie Bartlett Award, given by the GWAA to a playing professional for unselfish contributions to the betterment of society; David Meadow — Ben Hogan Award, given annually by the GWAA to an individual who has continued to be active in golf despite a physical handicap or serious handicap; Laura Davies – Jim Murray Award, given by the GWAA to a professional for their cooperation, quotability and accommodation to the media.
This dinner is the highlight of the year for me in golf. To get to see and listen to these great golfers and golf writers receive and make their acceptance speeches is a blast.
Last year I got to chat and shake hands with a great golfer that I admire — Tom Watson. I've also have gotten to meet Jay Haas in 2011.
This year I hope to meet Stacy Lewis, as she has overcome terrible physical handicaps to become No. 1.
David Feherty, who is a great, comical writer for Golf Magazine, cracked me up a couple of years ago when he was speaking and said my wife is a great housekeeper as she kept both of them when we divorced.
Upcoming events
Thursday at Madison Country Club — Men's League begins.
April 13 at Berea Country Club – Master's Scramble. Call 986-7141 for details.
Final thought
It may not be your fault for being down, but it's got to be your fault for not getting up — Steve Davis.
Until next time … live, love, laugh and learn, Glenmore.

|The WildLife: Killer Whales & Vocalizations, Ari Daniel Shapiro
|The WildLife on WOMM-LP
|Monday, 29 March 2010 12:24
Ari Daniel Shapiro, a wildlife biologist and radio contributor, shares his research on the vocalizations of killer whales. He reveals to "The WildLife" host Laurel Neme a number of interesting facts about the sounds of killer whales. Did you know they use both high and low frequencies in the same vocalization? He'll also divulge what it's really like to undertake this demanding kind of research in remote and frigid locales. While earning his PhD in biological oceanography at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, Ari Daniel Shapiro studied the vocalizations of killer whales in Norway. Now he uses his own voice and knowledge to tell stories about science on radio and other media. He's a regular contributor to a variety of national public radio programs and the host of both the Podcast of Life and Ocean Gazing. You can find the video on Ari's killer whale research discussed in this interview as well as other material on his website, www.aridanielshapiro.com. This episode of "The WildLife" aired on The Radiator, WOMM-LP, 105.9 FM in Burlington, Vermont on March 29, 2010.

I write about enterprise innovation.
Two contrasting views on Apple. Eric Jackson on Forbes says Apple can go to $1650 by end 2015. Edward A. Zabitsky, of Toronto-based ACI Research, quoted in the Sunday Telegraph this weekend says $270 (see also a video discussion here on Apple and smartphones).
What could derail Apple? The question is worth asking if only because it helps pinpoint Apple's (AAPL) strategic strengths, and many companies can learn from those. But there is also a weakness – Apple's attitude to "social business".
One part of Zabitsky's analysis – Apple is able to sell its products at a premium price because of a temporary advantage in content. iTunes/App Store is a good centralised access point for content and lite-functionality.
Take away that advantage and you may also take away Apple's premium pricing, dragging it into a lower price, high volume market (a place it last visited with the Nano) and a potential scrap with Amazon (AMZN), who also have great content and a phone of the way, and other parts of the Android device and content ecosystem, such as Samsung but more on their terms.
I guess by extension he is saying apps are not sustainable as a business model, which presumably means HTML 5 will make apps obsolete (something that featured high on RIM's wish-list). As good content becomes more available users will go in search of it at other ease-of-use content sites. Zabitksy has Apple on sell.
He acknowledges that Apple's huge developer community gives Apple several advantages. The developer ecosystem is a huge advocacy group, provides a wider range of apps means than competitors and increasingly seamless use between Apple devices means that new products are quickly leveraged into the market.
As Eric Jackson pointed out it took 6 years to sell 100 million iPhones, but will take only 4 years to sell 100 million iPads so familiarity with the apps world and the UI is helping sell across Apple's device range.
Translated to a strategic level these advantages are coupled with Apple's ability, in the Jobs' years, to make all the right calls on the form factor of its devices. The iPhone, larger than Nokia (NOK) handsets but a revelation for a generation brought up unreadable, barely usable Nokia screens; sector-defining size in the tablet market; great use of miniaturization in the category-defining ultra, the Mac Air.
And the various design advantages, a UI which made smartphones truly a way to access the web. Now a bet on Siri and a voice UI, coupled to Cloud. Prior to that the development of the iTunes/App Store platforms, both capable of dealing with billions of monthly calls, and their integration with their music industry partners (with billing and transparency) and their telco partners.
Add in the development of the service line of business through iTunes, Genius, to video and now file storage, and file sharing and no doubt a dip into the collaboration market.
Apple has also proved itself to be a master of radical adjacencies, easing into new markets, and creating new market categories, erasing its failures from memory very quickly (the first generation of iPhone had the habit of bringing down broadband mobile networks, the second generation dropped calls easily). All the while maintaining first rate interaction with the information ecosystem around them.
When Nick Vitalari and I looked at Apple's strategic options portfolio for The Elastic Enterprise, we were amazed by the range of decisions that Apple faces at any one time, and its ability to make the right calls on M&A and the OS, as well as the various platform configurations it manages. We felt that Apple had invented, over a decade of experimentation, accumulated experience, luck, and good judgment, a new way to scale a business.
So what could go wrong?
Apple does have a differentiated line of products when it comes to pricing and features. They simply continue producing, and selling, older models at reduced prices. Not many other companies are successful at that. Both Google and Microsoft are having major difficulties in getting the latest OS versions into new products, much less older models, while Apple has no such problem.
This is a way of Apple saving on R&D costs while being able to compete with newer products at lower price levels. It works, as we can see, because those older products sell well. This will help them to grow marketshare in countries where lower pricing is a must, while also maintaining higher margins then their competitors.
It's difficult to see into the future. Indeed, even three months seems to escape most analysts. But Apple does seem to have the system in place that will allow them to increase their success. The question is whether other companies do.
Thanks, I feel you outline many of the issues that can go one way or another. Apple has to hit a 'purple patch' sometime and you lay out the different points and places where this might happen.
Apple has been magnificently disrespectful of its computer customers in order to serve its "device" market (iPhones and iPads). It's last OS update, Lion, was a thorough failure among Mac owners in large part because it attempted to foist device-type interfaces on individuals with serious work to do, who bought seriously priced equipment to do it. The forthcoming Mountain Lion appears warped in the same way.
I've been an Apple computer user since the Apple II went on sale, and this is the first time I've seriously considered moving to another OS. My MacBook Pro and MacBook Air are not iPhones.
I know, computer users only generate $4 billion or so of Apple's two-digit-billion in revenues, but most of the really good technical ideas, the ones that set Apple apart from Samsung and HTC, have come out of the computer division. Diminish its resources or require its customers to pretend their $1500 computers are iPhones and that jig will be up. People will leave, both customers and technical geniuses. Then what? Apple competes only in the smartphone and tablet markets? On what basis — the loveliness of Apple's packaging? All bets are off in that case.
There's a reason Jobs was adamant about not sharing the Apple OS. But to keep it and not properly cultivate it is just as irresponsible and uncompetitive.
One solution would be for Apple to spin off the computer arm so that it can flourish, retaining the right to import elements for the device business but not stuffing the device business' goals down the computer maker's throat. Best of both worlds….
you can not assume that you can seperate apples elegant hardware and its software. Apple has created a system that is pre set for what we as the user most likely wants to do . Unlike microsoft where you may not know exact jargon to search for the task you want to do. it is almost impossible to find the settings you need to make a change (use the start menu to turn off the machine for instance ,all counterintuitive) Apple has given you a dozen intuitive paths to each task and they are common to all uses thanks to the apple design guidelines (posted in the tech library) there is no manual needed for a mac. there is no reason for apple to sell stuff cheaper because there is no hardware to compete against as only apple hardware runs its great OS. apple will not be in the position to compete with a bunch of hardware manufacturers using say android (a free os) and striving to make the cheapest possible device and splitting that sloppy market share between a plethora of vendors. apple is too smart for that, the windows users who have gone apple have reached a critical mass that has even penetrated businesses. businesses that have finally realized the increased productivity of working on a mac (no searching for missing dll's no hardware recognition problems ,automatic networking protocols not requiring a whole it department of engineers) . that all adds up to value beyond ability to tweet or throw minutiae up on Facebook apple will rise not fall
I wonder why Apple is suing Samsung … and do you really think they will ever be able to use foldable OLED (Samsung patents) …

2007 Conforming Loan Limit To Remain At $417,000
|November 28, 2006
Washington, DC – Office of Federal Housing Enterprise Oversight Director James B. Lockhart today announced the maximum 2007 conforming loan limit for single-family mortgages purchased by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac (the Enterprises) will remain at the 2006 level of $417,000 for one-unit properties for most of the U.S. 1/
The conforming loan limit determines the maximum size of a mortgage that an Enterprise can buy or guarantee. By law the maximum conforming loan limit is based on the October-to-October change in the average house price in the Monthly Interest Rate Survey (MIRS) of the Federal Housing Finance Board (FHFB). The FHFB reported the decline in the average price was $501, or 0.16 percent, from $306,759 in October 2005 to $306,258 in October 2006. This is the first decline in the MIRS since 1992-93.
OFHEO announced November 15 it would keep the limit at 2007 levels if there was a decrease in October-to-October house prices and would defer that decline for one year.
"This amount is in keeping with OFHEO's recent announcement of an orderly and transparent process for any downward adjustment," said Lockhart. "We made this decision so as not to disrupt the end-of-the-year pipeline of mortgages or the market for mortgage-backed securities," said Lockhart.
OFHEO also stated previously that additional guidance for the 2008 limits would be issued early next year.
1/ Higher limits apply to Alaska, Hawaii, Guam and the U.S. Virgin Islands as well as to properties with more than one unit.

Weston Middle School alerted parents Tuesday that two cases of pertussis, commonly known as whooping cough, had been confirmed at the school.
Pertussis is a bacterial infection that is "often mild in older children and adults," according to the advisory sent to parents. The illness can cause "serious problems," however, among infants.
The advisory goes on to explain that young children are generally vaccinated against whooping cough as part of their regular vaccinations, but that immunity wears off over time.
"Health officials now recommend that adults and adolescents receive a Tdap booster vaccine to protect against whooping cough," according to the Centers for Disease Control. "It is especially important for those in contact with infants younger than 12 months of age."
The advisory from Weston schools explains the symptoms of whooping cough initially resemble those of a cold: a runny nose, sneezing and dry cough. The cough, however, is persistent and slowly gets worse over a couple of weeks. The illness then progresses to a stage with uncontrollable coughing spells, which are often followed by vomiting. The person rarely runs a fever and may appear healthy between these coughing spells.
Young children and infants are more likely to display these symptoms.
Whooping cough is treated with antibiotics and parents are encouraged to contact their health care providers if they notice symptoms in their children.
Weston Middle School nurse Pat Hoban can be contacted at 781-786-5620 with questions.

A wake-up call for all our schools (From Bradford Telegraph and Argus)

A wake-up call for all our schools
9:15am Wednesday 28th November 2012 in Our View By Telegraph & Argus
That Bradford district has been named as having the second worst performing secondary schools in the country in terms of Ofsted judgements makes uncomfortable reading for all who have any involvement in education.
It will come as a blow to parents and should act as a wake-up call to all involved in schools, from council bosses down.
Yes, there are particular factors that must be taken into account for this district, such as its extraordinary demographic, its fluid population, and its economic hardship. But there will be other areas across the UK with similar social and financial issues, and only one of them, Barnsley, has performed to a lower standard.
Bradford Council can point to the fact that they only brought education back in house around a year ago, and that the rate of improvement since is one of the highest in the country.
And it is fair to say that the district is light years from where it was ten years ago when it was handed to private company Education Bradford. Only one school in the district is deemed to be inadequate, although that is clearly one school too many – particularly for those who attend and their families.
But the fact is that parents are entitled to expect the highest possible standard of education for their children and the fact that only 31% of pupils are attending schools deemed 'good' or 'outstanding' is simply unacceptable.
There are clearly some major issues that need to be addressed by schools and by Bradford Council to bring the district much closer to the ideal, which is that all children should be getting lessons that are far more than simply satisfactory, or in the worst case scenario, inadequate.
That is the very least our young people deserve.

There may be no Super Bowl halftime show next season
Feb 5, 2013, 9:00 AM EDT
I'm not sure whose idea it was to have the Super Bowl in an outdoor stadium in New Jersey in February, but whoever it was, let me congratulate that man. According to the New York Post, it's a possibility that there will be no Super Bowl halftime show in 2014. The reason? It will be too cold.
"It's because of the cold weather," revealed one source involved in the planning of the first-ever open-to-the-winter-elements Super Bowl.
"It's not only the acts and the singers but [also] the crews that have to put the stage together. You know, the assembly has to be done a certain way. It's choreographed and rehearsed so it can be assembled and disassembled as fast as possible. And you just can't assemble the stage and break it down fast enough in the cold."
"There's no plan right now of what to do in its place," the planning official said about the halftime spectacle.
Of course no one's rushing to officially cancel the halftime show, either: there's plenty of time to do that. The New Jersey Star-Ledger is reporting that it hasn't even been discussed. They should probably wait and see: with global warming, things may be warmer than they think by then.
Plus, Canada is just over the border and they have experts who can plan a great cold-weather halftime show. I envision something like this:

By DENISE A. RAYMO
---- — BURKE — To a child living in danger, poverty and strife, a 13-by-8-inch box can contain a world of happiness, comfort and encouragement.
And the regional chapter of Operation Christmas Child intends to brighten the lives of thousands of these children this holiday season by giving each of them a shoe box of Christmas joy.
Last year, volunteers in Clinton, Essex, Franklin and St. Lawrence counties donated 6,884 shoe boxes full of toys, gifts and candies for distribution worldwide as part of Samaritan's Purse, a Christian international-relief program founded by Franklin Graham, son of evangelist Billy Graham.
"Our goal is to have 7,500 this year," said Rita Alford, the Operation Christmas Child Northern Adirondack area coordinator in Plattsburgh.
Gift boxes can be prepared for boys or girls and are separated into three age groups: 2 to 4 years old, 5 to 9 years old and 10 to 14 years old.
Donors can send small stuffed animals, dolls, school supplies, combs, hair brushes, hair accessories, jump ropes, balls, Matchbox cars, assorted hard candy, small flashlights, socks, underpants, crayons and coloring books and other small toys.
No toys that resemble weapons, no breakable items or things that spill and no chocolate are allowed or accepted for the children's shoe boxes.
Personal-care item, such as a toothbrush, toothpaste, bars of soap and a wash cloth, are also accepted and should be packed in plastic bags inside the box.
Collection week for gift-filled shoe boxes is Nov. 18 to 25 at any of the eight regional collection sites.
Donors can either use a clear plastic shoe box to pack their gifts or a standard shoe box, which can be gift wrapped as long as the top and bottom are done separately then fitted together so the box can be opened and checked before it leaves the country.
A $7 donation is asked to accompany each box to cover the shipping costs; checks may be placed in an envelope and set on top of the gifts so volunteers can collect them during package inspections, she said.
Alford said that once the packages are gathered locally, they are shipped to the organization's headquarters in Boone, N.C., checked and then sent overseas.
Operation Christmas Child is just one of the programs Samaritan's Purse conducts that reach out to those who are suffering from the conditions of war, disease, famine or natural disaster.
The organization's website at www.samaritanspurse.org offers more ideas on gift giving and includes videos of children receiving their Operation Christmas Child gifts.
Donors are encouraged to include a letter or a photograph of their families or maps or other information to show the child where they are from in the world.
Alford said donors from the Victory Bible Church in the St. Lawrence County town of Winthrop were thrilled to see that one of the videos features a child in the Republic of Georgia opening one of their shoe boxes.
"They were super excited at seeing the impact their gift had on a little girl in a former Russian country," she said.
The website also takes the $7 donation online, giving donors the option to track their package and find out where in the world it goes.

Experience simple Ashram living with basic yet comfortable private room (hot shower, fan, wifi) and facilities for Meditation, Yoga, Healing Pool, library, Chapel for Mother Goddess. It's 5 mins from Ubud by scooter, 45 mins walk.
Experience simple Ashram living with basic yet comfortable private room (hot shower, fan, wifi) and facilities for Meditation, Yoga, Healing Pool, library, Chapel for Mother Goddess. It's 5 mins from Ubud by scooter, 45 mins walk.
Ashram provides a conducive environment to spiritual travelers and genuine seekers with facilities for Meditation, Yoga, Healing Pool, library, Chapel for Mother Goddess.
Experience simple Ashram living with basic yet comfortable private room (hot water shower, fan). As such, Ashram may not be a suitable place for those looking for accommodation alone.
We regret that at present we do not have special facilities for the disable or sick persons. We, therefore, expect all visitors to be in fit condition, physically, as well as mentally/emotionally.
The minimum age to stay is 12 years old.
Hot water, free-flow drinking water and refrigerator is available at the common area. Kitchen is not available.
Wifi is available at the entire area.
Parking lot is available for motorbike or car.
Scooter is needed to go around Ubud. It takes 5 minutes from Ubud center by scooter, 45 minutes walking. Scooter rental can be found easily in the center.
Airport transfer can be arranged at additional cost.
Hotel construction is going on behind the ashram so it will be noisy during the day and quiet at the evening. The work starts around 9 AM and stop around 5 PM.
Check-in time on 1 PM - 11 PM, check-out time on 4 AM - 11 AM.
The rooms are nice, and the Ashram is beautiful and offers lovely meditation three times daily. The hosts are welcoming, attentive and make the most delicious food upon request. Everything was perfect and clean, with very friendly staff, and a peaceful environment. Recommended if you want to stay put and enjoy some peace, for Ubud tourism it might be better to stay more central. But with a scooter the odd trip to town is easy (too far and uphill for bicycling). I would always like to visit again for a more spiritual break.
Great place to stay, lovely hosts and a chance to really unwind & meditate
The reservation was canceled the day before arrival. This is an automated posting.
i feel so comfortable and peaceful in Anand Ashram, we chanting and meditate in the early morning, they even provide free yoga and meditation for us. people there are so beautiful, it's a very good place to stay with yourself and start the journey to go into the inner space in your heart. any way i like here and will choose here again.
I had the fortune of finding out about Anand thru other guests at another home stay I was at. Towards the end of a month long stay in Bali i needed a retreat and I can truly say that without the days I spent here my journey would have not been complete. They offer 3 sittings a day for meditation and morning yoga which is just the perfect pace for relaxation and contemplation. All the guests were wonderful and the hosts are so gracious, kind and humble. The food is amazing, they cater to any food needs you have within a vegetarian diet, even made banana fritters with rice flour that were amazing!!! Absolutely take a few days break and gather yourself here!!! It was a saving grace for me without a doubt, I will be back and for a much longer time next visit to Bali!!! Brianna
Anand Ashram was just beautiful with cool gardens and plenty of relaxing meditation spaces. Perfect for those wanting to see the sights but also have time to meditate, sleep, and participate in Ashram life. Surrounded by rice fields the night air is filled with cicadas, frogs and fireflys which you can enjoy from your very comfortable room. It is a nice distance from the madness of UBud but you will want a scooter as the walk is very long. The staff were very helpful and friendly, lending a hand with booking scooters and anything else we had questions about. They are able to organise airport transfers also. We enjoyed ourselves so much we've been talking about how soon it will be before we can go back for a longer stay!
We are a young couple and spent 3 nights at Anand Ashram , this was the right amount of time for us as we are fairly new to yoga & meditation and got just what we wanted out of our stay whilst learning, Peace and quiet away from the scooters and tourist area, relaxing healing pool and friendly hosts of the Ashram.
The only negatives we felt were a slight non communication with regards to how we had food and only found out on our 2nd day that you can pre order it the day before, although we mainly eat from a tasty cheap local Warung at the end of the road. We didn't feel 100% welcome at Anand Ashram for various reasons but we did enjoy our stay and would revisit, it is defiantly worth a visit for peace and quiet and a chance to recharge, meditate and yoga.
One of the locals that lived there (who also cooked for us) was very kind to offer us a lift with him to the supermarket, where we got breakfast essentials.
All in all thank you.
Anand Ashram was very peaceful very and very accessible to town, just ride your motor bike 3km down the street and your in the middle if the busiest part of Ubud. They even coordinated for my Motorbike rental to be dropped off the same day I requested it. The staff was friendly/accommodating and I met some amazing people that I will never forget. I definitely would recommend this place for someone that is looking for a peaceful retreat to recharge their spirit. I will be back for sure.
greate place to stay in ubud! clean rooms and a big garden.
There you get the best breakfast in bali!
Herny was extremely helpful with all of our questions.
Ce n'est pas un lieu pour sortir le soir car le portail central est fermé à 22 h 00 (il faut enjamber le portail), on ne doit pas apporter de boissons ni de nourriture dans la chambre heureusement que je n'y suis resté que 2 nuits, c'est vraiment pour les personnes qui cherchent la méditation avec le strict minimum, Pas de draps, juste une couverture, une seule prise électrique pas de table, vraiment trop juste pour y circuler, pas d'interrupteur à proximité du lit, il faut une lampe de poche pour aller se coucher quand on a éteint la lumière! Bref même si je ne recherche pas le luxe, c'est un endroit isolé, loin d'Ubud ( vive le scooter) et on ne peut mettre de la musique ou autre, il faut respecter le règlement à la lettre, (pas de sexe, pas de drogue et d'alcool entre autre). J'ai réservé cette chambre parce que j'étais seul et j'étais pris par le temps et que pour 2 nuits.
Fêtards ou couples s'abstenir au propre comme au figuré (attention 2 lits simples)!
Sinon, un accueil chaleureux et je remercie le service qu'on m'a rendu en faisant venir le scooter à domicile car je me voyait pas faire 4 kms à pieds mais en cote.
Je n'ai pas pris de petits déjeuner car j'étais en retard le premier jour avec mon guide, je suis partis sans et le deuxième jour , j'avais rendez-vous à 2 h00 du matin pour l'ascension du mont Batur donc pas de petit dèj qui devait comporter du nescafé ou du thé et c'est tout.

If you are looking for a peaceful, private refuge, then let us welcome you to your cozy cottage in the garden.
We live in a quiet Burlingame neighborhood just 7 minutes from the San Francisco airport. The area is safe and easy to navigate. There is easy access to highways 101, 280, and 92. You're a healthful stroll (about 6 blocks) to Caltrain, charming downtown Burlingame, and the famous Nini's neighborhood restaurant. Just over a block away is a grocery store, drug store and a Starbucks.
The garden cottage is accessed through a private, lockable, gated entrance. You'll enjoy a comfortable, full/queen bed, WIFI internet, HDtv/BluRay, infrared fireplace/heater that heats the cottage quickly, ironing board and iron, and organic plush linens, cozy spa robes and scuffs. Just beyond the side dutch-door (I call it our Mr. Ed door!) is an lovely patio with table, chairs, and a love seat inviting you to read, listen to the birds, and simply relax. The garden is lushly landscaped to provide privacy and a refuge for the urban wildlife. Street or driveway parking available for your convenience.
The bathroom is a detached, private space just adjacent to the cottage just 10 steps down a private, partially covered walkway. Please see pics for orientation. The bathroom is equipped with organic cotton towels, towel warmer, shampoo/conditioner, body wash and hairdryer.
Help yourself to organic coffee and teas, juice, farmers-market organic fruit and snacks. Snacks will be tailored to your dietary requirements upon request. Filtered water provided as well.
We also have a property in the lovely town of Sonoma should you ever find yourself vacationing
in the Sonoma/Napa wine country.
We would love to make your stay as enjoyable as possible.
Thank you for your interest in the cottage and we hope we have the honor of hosting and meeting you soon!

Diane was a delight - very sweet and accommodating! The space could not have been nicer - clean, cozy, private and beautiful. The garden was just gorgeous and a wonderful place to relax and regroup. The listing does not do it justice! Betsy and Marc.
The cottage and the host exceeded my expectations! The setting was ideal - quiet and private with all the amenities. The location is ideal, not only for San Mateo and the surrounding but for the entire bay area.
I will definitely book again.
I came to Diane and Mike's cottage at a difficult time in my life, to live near my kids as my wife and I were going through a separation. The environment was perfect for what I needed. There are plenty of areas to walk to for shopping/food and good waterfront running trails nearby at Coyote Point park. The streets were quiet and safe with easy parking. Diane and Mike were friendly, responsive and committed to giving me my privacy. And most of all the inside and outside of the cottage and separate bathroom were clean, comfortable, quiet and calming. A very relaxing place to come home to at the end of the day and I learned to love the private walk to the bathroom first and last thing each day. This is an excellent spot for anyone who wants to explore Burlingame, be central to all of SF and Silicon Valley, or just needs a quiet place to reflect. The cottage will always be my first choice of a place to stay in the area.
This is truly a lovely retreat in a perfect location. The warmth and hospitality combined with the serene space makes this my favorite spot to stay.
Wonderful experience! Great sense of relaxation only minutes away from the airport. The garden is a private eden. Diane is a wonderful hostess! Cynthia & David
DIane and Mike have a lovely place, I highly recommend it. It's a little garden getaway, with easy access to all the great amenities of Burlingame and San Francisco. Beautiful setting, lovely furnishings and delightful hosts. I will be returning!
What a perfect place to rest your head at the end of the day.
Our son recently relocated to Burlingame so The Garden Cottage is ideally located for us when we visit. It's well within walking distance of all the great places to dine or shop in Burlingame as well as public transportation to take you to the sights of the surrounding areas.
Diane has already thought of everything you'll need to make your stay comfortable and has a wealth of knowledge to share. Whether you're in need of directions to the sights or a quiet place for dinner, her recommendations have been spot on.
Don't leave without taking a stroll through the garden to admire the landscape design or just take in the beauty.
Diane was an incredible host and her cottage is impeccable! She pays attention to the details--as evidenced by her towel warmer--and knows how to create a real experience for her guests. We would recommend her place 100%!
I stayed here for two weeks while moving for a new job. Diane was very helpful with everything I needed, and the cottage was adorable. The photos don't do justice, the garden is beautiful. You feel as if you're in a storybook setting everyday you wake up. There are huge windows throughout the room, and the bed is cozy piled with blankets. The bathroom is located outside the cottage, but it is only several feet, and the garden is so private that it wasn't a problem at all. The bathroom is also very well stocked.
I was staying here during late January and the cold did not bother me. The heater in the room is very good, and most of the time I didn't even have to keep it on (due it heating up so quickly).
There was private parking on the driveway, but since I have a very large truck, I parked it out on the street (plenty of parking). The general neighborhood is also very nice and feels safe.
The worst part of the trip was leaving, because I enjoyed the garden and cottage so much.
Very sweet little cottage in an exquisite garden setting! Great hosts, appreciated our welcoming treats. Wonderful location, just around the corner from our new grandson!

The answer is yes, if you want a
pampered evening in a stylish setting that is not typical of Indian food joints in NYC. The food is quite good, but at least for what we sampled, not noticeably above other good resto's with similar offerings. (The marinated lamb was delicious.) In other words, if you care about value, look elsewhere. Come here to impress someone."

I love Indian dishes. If you have
never had its delicacies, this is an excellent restaurant to try. Our German waiter was quite knowledgeable about the quisinne. This is important as Indian food can vary widely."

Dined on 7/17/2014
My spouse took me here for my
birthday. Food as exceptional as you would expect from a Michelin Star restaurant. Portions were bigger than expected though, which is good. Drinks menu is excellent, but not exceptional. Their signature Tamarind Margarita is very unexpected and creative cocktail I would definitely recommend... It's a very clean and nice establishment, but their service is not as swift as it could be (maybe it was just a very busy evening)."
Dined on 7/16/2014
First time I had been at this
location and it was wonderful. My party of three had the Dover sole, seafood combination, and a chicken dish that were all wonderfully seasoned with spices and very aromatic. That course was preceded by some wonder appetizers include the shrimps special that was wonderfully prepared. Staff was very attentive and the wine list is exceptional with standard favorites along with some wonderful reserve wines. Spacing and timing were spot on so you did not feel rushed while eating. I would highly recommend for anyone that enjoys traditional Indian cuisine."

My favorite restaurant! We go
there once a week - and so far I don't have even one complaint."
Dined on 7/9/2014
This is probably the only Indian
restaurant that serves exquisite authentic Indian cuisine with a varied menu from different Indian food styles. It builds on that authenticity further with an elegant new take on these foods and presents them to the diner in a stylish occidental manner. As a fairly discerning Indian diner this is one of the only Indian restaurants in the NY metro area that I consider representative of haute Indian cuisine and that offers much more than my own kitchen"
Dined on 7/9/2014
Excellent service, meals were
really great in perfect portions. Bread is really diferent but deliciuos. In general is our favorite restaurant en NYC."

This restaurant used to be much
better. The service is not as good anymore."
Dined on 7/7/2014
This was a great overall
restaurant although having eaten at some really good hole-in-the-wall Indian restaurants this would be more of a special occasion place for us. The service and ambiance are great and dishes are well-prepared. Just a bit more of a splurge than what I would normally pay for Indian food but a good experience if you're looking for something different."
Dined on 7/7/2014
Delicious food. I only drank chai
tea (which was also delicious) so can't speak to the wine/beverage aspecs. I went pretty late and there were lots of Indian families as well as dressed up women and date nights. It was an excellent venue for all"

One of the best Indian
restaurant. Their service was 5 star Food fresh, well cook awesome. I love their AMBIENCE ."
Dined on 7/5/2014
The ambience here is ideal for a
relaxing meal. Tables are nicely spaced apart; lighting is bright but comfortable and the noise level is moderate. The lunch menu is a terrific deal - $25 for an appetizer, 2 entrees and dessert - and the food is delicious. Our waitstaff was attentive and friendly. No complaints and I would recommend the restaurant to anyone."
Dined on 7/2/2014
This is one of the better fine
Indian restaurants I've been to in or near the city. I often go when I want a slightly more "upscale" experience of Indian food. It hasn't disappointed yet. The wine list is extensive, and the restaurant is generous with appetizers and desserts. I've been there three times so far, and there will be more visits to come. Recommended for special occasions or romantic dinners."

I had friends visiting from out of

quiet atmosphere. Loved their chili crab app. Go for their prix fixe lunch."

Went for dinner, and the food did
not live up to expectations. The butter chicken was not cooked very well, and the portions were too small. The only dish that was satisfactory was the punjabi mutton."

We went here for dinner on a
Saturday night. There was 5 of us and we decided to share our orders (portion sizes are smaller than your typical indian restaurant, but I would still recommend you share to enjoy more!). We start with the Aloo Tikyas, Scallops and Malai Murgh. All were phenomenal. For our main we had their award winning Halibut (highly recommend), Lamb Milagu and Paneer Makhani. All dishes were cooked to perrfection. The lamb was a perfect balance of spice. For dessert we ended with the Kulfi and Coconut Mousse. Coconut Mousse in particular was delicious and had a great texture."
Dined on 6/28/2014
The food was very good as well as
the selection advice from the wait staff. The room is beautiful and has a good energy level. We had the lamb chops and they were delicious."

Authentic Indian Food, Great
Ambience, robust wine list, and excellent service. Parking relatively easy."

We were in NYC and decided to
celebrate our 20th Anniversary here. Despite making a reservation on Open Table, The hostess couldn't seem to find our reservation. We explained our last name 3 times and told here we were celebrating our anniversary. Ultimately, she claimed she could not find the reservation and didnt honor our request for a quiet table. Instead they placed us by the waiters station and kitchen, which was loud and distracting. Our waiter had too many tables to wait on and it was not easy to get his attention. The food was quite good though and we did our best to enjoy the evening."
Dined on 6/26/2014
Great food and good service. Too
much air condition, so we got a bit cold (also the food)."
Dined on 6/25/2014
Food is amazing! We had the Mango
Cosmo which was strong and fruity....for appetizers we tried the vegetable samosa which was very flavorful. For entrees I had the Vindaloo with salmon which wasnt listed on the menu but they were happy to oblige. My BF had the chicken tikka masala which he loved. All in all I think this place is a great choice for an upscale indian restaurant. My only gripe is that after you pay 30+ for an entree you expect it to at lease come with rice/naan. A small bowl of jasmine rice is an extra 6 bucks."

Galveston Pet Friendly Apartment Rentals(13)
13 Results
Recent Galveston Reviews
The apartment was nice and clean with updated and pleasant decor. The natural light and feel of the place was wonderful! The space was large enough to accommodate our 2 adults and 2 older children, and the kitchen had all we needed to prepare simple meals. The location was fantastic! We could see the beach from the porch, as well as the Pleasure Pier. The seawall and Pier were only a 1 block walk away :) The flowering plants and the courtyard were a wonderful atmospheric boost, and we loved being able to pick some of the best figs we have ever had! This was just what our family needed and we will stay again.
3 words..." I absolutely loved it!" I want to tell you that it is horrible and not to go there ( for my own benefit for sure)....but I cannot tell a lie. Beginning with the lush tropical garden, you suddenly feel a calm that makes you want to forget any stresses. The studio is just the right size if you want to go alone to relax, or to bring a loved one because its" truly romantic". Southern charm as its best! The owner went above and beyond making us feel welcomed as we walked in the door. Gourmet coffee, fresh water and lots of wonderful snacks amongst other surprises, it just kept getting better! The bathroom was supplied with the amenities that you would usually take on a trip with you, so leave your shampoo and conditioner at home! Walking distance to the beach and local hotspots, I did not even use my car once. Like I said its horrible ;) I have now found the place for my annual getaway. I cannot tell a lie.
Rating Details: I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. I was very happy with the location. The vacation rental was spotless. The property manager was more than helpful. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The place was great it wasnt what we expect but they surprised us. We were totally comfortable the only problem was the restroom we were 9 people with one restroom.lol

A man waiting at a bus stop on Baltimore Drive was robbed at knifepoint Saturday morning as a car swooped up and a man with a knife jumped out to accost him, police said.
The victim was waiting at a bus stop on Baltimore Drive near Fletcher Parkway at 6:05 a.m. in La Mesa when a gold-colored, 4-door sedan traveling southbound on Baltimore Drive stopped in front of him.
"A male exited the front passenger seat and held a knife to the victim's side while a female passenger in the vehicle grabbed the victim's backpack," said La Mesa police Sgt. Katy Lynch.
"The male and female suspects got back into the vehicle, which was occupied by an additional male passenger and was driven by a second female."
The victim ran to a nearby gas station to call police, as the car sped to the south on Baltimore, Lynch said. Officers searched the area but were unable to locate the suspects or their vehicle.
The victim suffered a minor scratch to his side but did not require medical treatment.
The suspect who wielded the knife was described as a white or Hispanic male in his 30s with a goatee wearing a black-hooded shirt or sweatshirt. The female who grabbed the victim's backpack was described as a white or Hispanic female in her 30s wearing a gold or similar-color jacket.
An investigation is continuing. Police asked anyone with information to call the La Mesa Police Department at 619-667-1416 or 619-469-6111, or Crime Stoppers' Anonymous toll-free tip line at 888-580-TIPS or on line at sdcrimestoppers.com.

This week in a moment of weakness I finally listened to Kim Kardashian's new song Jam. The one word that I could think to describe it was "elementary," because it sounds like a six year old singing about her birthday party. I discussed with a friend who pointed out that it also just sounds like Cassie. At that point I delved into an afternoon of self-loathing, listening to similar breathy whisper jams of the last ten years. What's to blame for the wackness of Kim's song? It's not songwriting. The lyrics aren't the problem, and I swore to never speak a word against its producer, The Dream. The deep issue is vocal training. Someone's level of celebrity should not dictate their musical endeavors. Real singers stretch the voice box to its limit. Maybe this was why Kim was so frightened in the episode of Keeping Up With the Kardashians when she was about to record? After an award season filled with vocal lows (see: all of Rihanna's performances and Gwyneth Paltrow in general) it appears music is not the problem—there are just very few vocalists left.
It's been over 40 years since the era of Motown but one of my favorite songs is still "Love Hangover" by Diana Ross. The bass drop at the beginning a libation from heaven and her voice is perfect for it. In the world of breathy falsetto, Diana Ross was once queen. Her vocal range was weak but her ability to melodically follow the music was always on point. This may have had a direct correlation with all the singers of that time. Fast forward to the soul and funk—I've spent the past couple of weeks drenched in Steve Arrington of Slave after watching him perform for the first time in 25 years in Brooklyn and replaying Sharon Jones and the Dap Kings for the 4,796,293,729th time. The vocalists of the era were able to follow the melody of songs and improvise for almost five minutes. There aren't even many words in "Love Hangover", it's just Diana and the girls cooing over and over while the bassist and the guitarist go ham. Steve Arrington riffs and croons all over the place as every member of the band improvises bars. These singers understood there was a song with notes to be sung. What you're dealing with these days is talk singing a la Ke$ha who at least blatantly lets you know: there is no melody here.
Not to say there aren't any great vocalists entertaining this generation growing up with Beyonce as their Diana Ross. Beyonce still holds the crown. Yes, she yells it. But her ability to let her all-girl band rock out while she just wails over the tune is not something everyone can do. Alicia Keys ranks close second. I refer everyone to her original single Fallin'. From the first acapella-dropped line you hear her range and how she sets the tone for the piano. It's sad because this exact skill makes us forgive all variations of voices. If a person can use their scratchy/raw voice ( see: Mary J. Blige) on a song and sing notes then we appreciate their voice's deviation from one that is crystal clear. We don't all have to be operatic singers but everyone enjoys someone who shows they have an understanding of music. So this is really my only beef with the model/ actress/ jack-of-all trades singers of this generation: stop talking in my head. William Shatner already has the spoken word market on lock. I need a MELODY. Music tames the beast—nobody ever talked a baby to sleep.

The Orange Leader
The 16-year playoff drought is over for the Little Cypress-Mauriceville Battlin' Bears as they will be entering the playoff waters for the first time since 1997 Saturday.
The last time the Bears stepped on to a playoff field, they fell to eventual Class 4A Division II state champion LaMarque in the Region III Finals 41-20 on the floor of the Astrodome.
The Astrodome may not exist much longer but the Battlin' Bears would like to think that there solid season will continue after this weekend.
"The kids are excited and the community is excited and everyone is really anticipating it," said Bear coach Randy Crouch. "The kids have put forth a tremendous effort all season and have shown a lot of improvement from those early days in August. It's a new season now and we've got a good Dayton team we've got to go up against."
The Bears (5-4, 5-2), the third-place team out of District 20-4A, will take on the Dayton Broncos (5-5, 4-4), the fourth-place team out of District 19-4A, Saturday at 7 p.m. at the Carroll "Butch" Thomas Center in Beaumont in the 4A Region III Division II bidistrict round.
The Bears are coming off a dramatic 17-13 regular season finale win over Orange County rival Vidor while the Broncos absorbed a 41-27 loss to 19-4A champion Summer Creek, which is ranked No. 5 in the 4A state ranks.
"That was a tremendous win to go to Vidor and come out with one at their place," said Crouch. "Anytime you get a win in our tough league, it's great. Dayton, they've been through some big battles as well. That 19-4A league is loaded with talented teams and it's a nine-team league, so you're going through eight big battles in district over there."
Coach Jowell Hancock's Broncos like to put the ball in the air, led by quarterback Tristan Baughman.
The Broncos are averaging 329.8 yards a contest and will face a Bear defense that has allowed 313.3.
Baughman has completed 143-of-246 passes for 1,662 yards and eight touchdowns. He does have 12 interceptions and will face a ball-hawking Bear secondary that can pick with the best of them.
Baughman's favorite targets have been Jacarius Keener (45-624-3), Lucious Rhone (45-539-3) and Kyle McBride (35-412-2).
McBride leads the Bronco ground attack with 511 yards and eight TDs on 91 carries. Baughman has rushed for 264 yards and three TDs on 68 totes.
"Dayton likes to spread you out and they have excellent athletes," said Crouch. "Dayton has always been known for good athletes and making the playoffs. For years, it was Coach (Jerry) Stewart (now the Dayton AD) that led them to a lot of big wins. Coach Hancock knows what the tradition is like there and he was with Coach Stewart for almost 20 years. They just have an excellent program."
The Bears will check in averaging 303.6 yards an outing and will face a Bronco defense that gives up 319.6.
"Defensively, they're very sound up front in the defensive line," said Crouch. "Their linebackers are pretty good. Watching them on film, they have not been exploited very much. Size-wise, I think we match up with them pretty well. We're going to try and prepare well for them and the kids are looking forward to going out there and competing hard."
LC-M running back Brandon Toliver has been on a tear since the 20-4A campaign started. He now has 1,241 yards and 13 TDs on 145 carries.
Bear quarterback Caleb Harley has completed 67-of-145 passes for 673 yards and has five TDs and five picks.
Dalton Doyle has been his favorite target. Doyle has 32 grabs for 401 yards and four TDs.
LC-M High School invites the entire community to join them for a "Bust the Broncos" pep rally on Thursday. The pep rally will begin at 6:30 p.m. and will be held in Battlin' Bear Stadium.
Look for information on tickets and Playoff shirts soon on the Little Cypress-Mauriceville CISD Facebook page.
The LC-M-Dayton winner will face either Brenham or Georgetown East View in the area round next week.

The following announcement is from the Pace University Department of Athletics. Share your sports results and photos by emailing firstname.lastname@example.com or uploading them directly to this article.
PLEASANTVILLE, N.Y.- Safety David Lopez (Ozone Park, NY / Christ the King) and linebackers Vincent Romano (Davenport, NY / Oneonta) and Gerald Ford (Bronx, NY / Don Bosco Prep/Iona College) have been picked to participate in the 2012 National Bowl in Allentown, PA on December 9. Ford, Lopez and Romano will share the field with only the best college All-American and All-Conference Seniors from Division II and III schools and will get to play alongside standout professional players, which is presented by East Preps.
The National Bowl Game is an invite only college football all star game where 80 of the best college seniors from around the country are confirmed for this years game. Players are confirmed from schools such as Eastern Oregon, Texas A&M - Commerce, Seton Hill, and Albright. This year NFL Legendary Coach Mike Stock formerly of the Green Bay Packers is set to coach the "Red Nation" team as Coach Chris Thompson and his Lehigh Valley Steelhawks staff coaching staff will coach the "Blue Nation" Team. Sponsors include Susquehanna Bank, Optimum Scouting, Hokey A.A., Madness Training, F.A.S.S.T Performance, Team Swoll, and the Ramada Inn-Allentown.Canadian Football League (CFL), Arena Football League (AFL), United Football League (UFL), and indoor football scouts were in attendance last year and are set for this years game and several NFL teams request rosters, player info, and game & practice film. The National Bowl Game is also played for a good cause as a portion of proceeds from ticket sales will be donated to the Tommy Foundation to help its fight against Autism and a Zumba performance & dance to fight childhood obesity will take place at halftime for fans of all ages to join in.
Pace football alum Tyrell Zimmerman and brother Duval Zimmerman were both picked to play in the 2009 National Bowl which provided them with a greater opportunity to be seen and scouted. Tyrell currently played for the Tulsa Talons in the American Football League (AFL) while Duval is with the Laredo Rattlesnakes in the Indoor Football League (IFL).
Two other notables, of a long list that were discovered at the National Bowl are Kevin Doty who had a stint with the New York Giants that came out of Lafayette FCS, and free agent Walter Sanders, who saw a year with the Baltimore Ravens, that came out of Division II St. Augustine.
"There is a lot of upside playing in this game," Lopez said. "It could potentially put me at another level of play depending on how well I do so it's exciting. It's the best of the best now."
Lopez, a Pre-Season All-American finished off the season earning the MVP title in the Homecoming game as he recorded 16 tackles, nine of them solo. He will also be participating in the DII vs. NAIA All-Star game the weekend after the National Bowl as well as the USA Freedom Bowl in January. Lopez led the NE-10 Conference in tackles per game, averaging 11.3 for a total of 102 on the season. He totaled 48 assisted tackles, 54 solo, a fumble recovery, a break-up and an interception this past season.
Romano finished 4th in the conference in tackles per game with 9.8. He totaled 88 tackles on the season, 58 assisted, 30 solo, six tackles for a loss of 24 total yards, two fumble recoveries, one break-up and one block.
Ford, a transfer from Iona, played in nine games for the Setters where he totaled 36 tackles, 17 solo and 19 assisted. He recorded two sacks, three tackles for a total loss of 16 yards as well as a forced fumble and break-up. He was an All-MAC student athlete and achieved multiple MAC Player of the Week's at Iona.
"After the program got canceled at Iona, I had finished my degree and I thought my football career was over," Ford said. "Last year, I decided life was miserable without football and I needed the regime that comes along with it. I called Coach Dapolito about coming to Pace to play. I was excited with the opportunity."
"Through that opportunity, brought this. I'm really excited because I had just expressed my interest in continuing football after college to Coach Dapolito, said Ford. I think it's a step in the direction I want to go in and a tool that I need. All of my Iona film is essentially nonexistent. I have the opportunity to prove that I'm an elite linebacker and that I'm very good at my position. The National Bowl is a tool, like the pro-days and combines, where I can get out there and showcase my hard work."
Ford, with a deep history at the linebacker position, stepped up for the Pace football program and played defensive end for the Setters this year. He will go back to his natural position of linebacker for the National Bowl game.
In preparation, Lopez will take a week off to heal and then get back into training. Romano is training at Extreme Fitness in Thornwood 3-4 times a week, as well as with Mike Bohlander, the Pace Strength and Conditioning Coach.
"I'm so blessed to have an opportunity to show that with hard work and determination you can change your life for the better," said Romano. "It's really surreal to have the opportunity to play against other athletes that are good players on their respective teams. From the shear competition stand point, I'm ready to bring my A-game."
"It's every player's goal to get a look," Romano said. "We don't always have that opportunity in DII to be in the presence of big-time scouts. We didn't have a lot of wins but I know the work that I put into the team and football and hopefully I can showcase that and impress somebody out there. I'm just looking for an opportunity to get better and showcase my talents."
As participants, Ford, Lopez and Romano will partake in a weekend full of activities with the other players and their families at The National Bowl December 7-9. The game is scheduled for 1 pm Sunday, December 9 on the turf field at the J. Birney Crum Stadium in Allentown, PA. Information is included below if you would like to go support Ford, Lopez and Romano as they represent the Setters.

One of the gates of the 25 BCE double Praetorian Gate of Aosta in northern Italy. The two gates stand 12 m apart and each has three arched entrances - one central gateway for wheeled vehicles and two smaller passages positioned either side for pedestrians. Some of the orignal mable facing is still in situ. The gate was one of the four gates and 20 towers which formed part of the city walls of Roman Aosta.

Patrick Wayne Jr. Owens

Posted: February 2, 2002
The Missing Persons Register
|I am looking for my nephews Patrick Wayne, Jonathan Lawrence and Jeffrey Daniel Owens. They were last seen in Garland,Texas about 15 or so years ago when their father came to pick them up and promised he'd bring them back so we could see them. That was the last time we ever saw them. I believe Patrick should be around 20 now and I think his birthday is 11/6/81 or '82. Jonathan is about 19 or so and I believe his birthday is 12/22/83. Jeffrey is the youngest and I can't remember his birthday unfortunately. We believe they may have been taken to Virginia by their father all those years ago. Their grandfather is now 90 years old and would desperately like to find them before he passes on so he can see them 1 last time. We do not know where their mother is she hasn't come around our family in years. The boys all have dark brown hair and I believe dark eyes. We love the boys and would love for them to meet their family they never knew they had. If anyone has any information, please contact me immediately. Thank you. (Category: Missing Pers)
