    US News college rankings

    Some colleges did really well in the US News and not so well in Forbes. Colleges can focus on improving their data for one but rarely for both. Parents should compare both and choose schools consistently ranked similarly for the last 6 years. Weed out the inconsistent colleges. The misleading...

    Right IHO 3CWG is across the front with 3CWD in front. The front door and house to the side and behind the garage. He prefers the "o" plan where the rooms wrap around the stairs.

    FivePoint buys back Broadcom office campus in deal that could add 1,000 homes

    I have warned you in 2006 and reminded you every other years thereafter 3CWG will never be built ever in Irvine and Irvine fringes. Even in the crappy Inland empire it is outlawed. You will have to go way out in Antelope Valley to find new built with it.

    Asian applicants from Irvine would be in a greater disadvantage. The top private colleges not only set racial quotas but regional racial quotas as well. A North Dakota Asian applicants has a much higher chance of being accepted.

    Orange County Great Park: Sports park, water park, ice rink, golf course

    Rather than building massive sport complexes historical precedents indicated the land would have been used otherwise for more apertments, strip malls and business parks. I applaud these athleticism inspired land uses and provides a mixed use opportunities to promoting better health. The cultural...

    Orange County Great Park: Sports park, water park, ice rink, golf course

    This is not the lame pocket parks we are used to seeing. World class sports parks, Olympic caliber organizations and 2028 Olympic in Los Angeles we will see GreatPark possibly contributing to hosting one or more events and possibly be the training ground for athletes. During the 1984 Olympic the...

    Veterans Cemetery coming to Irvine

    Modjeska is a road that T into the cemetery. The new part of Portola Springs take access from this street. It's bad news to leave everyday and having to see the cemetery at the end of the street. The controversy of the cemetery was enough of distraction to deter Chinese buyers from the Great...

    Twin valedictorian with cerebral palsy earns Stanford scholarship

    Century High ranked last in average API score and plagued with gang violence. So it is true that the top colleges do recruit from Santa Ana high schools. This year alone numerous graduates made the TV news.

    Veterans Cemetery coming to Irvine

    Just like I said no cemetary will be at the Greatpark. It is plain and simple. Eastwood is almost sold out. The focus of future home sales is now at Portola Springs. Cemetary will be a hindrance to sell homes at Portola Springs. Political contribution stopped and here we are, a brand new...
