Lefkow is currently undergoing treatment for breast cancer. The two said they were running for "Team Lisa," and sending the message "never give up, never back down."

MISSING
On Sunday, I covered the first day of searching for 6-year-old Adji Desir. He was last seen outside of his grandma's home in Farm Worker Village in Immokalee, Fla. — a migrant town about 40 miles outside of Naples. They have kept searching with no leads. He has been on Nancy Grace, Headline News on CNN and our local news non-stop, but still no sign of him. Please, I know people come to this blog from all over, and the chances of him being in California are slim, but keep your eyes peeled. And for goodness sake, if you have kids, hold them close. I feel so much for Adji's family. Please keep them and Adji in your prayers. Please take the time to read the stories and see his photo here.

Light Painting Photo Columns
For all of 2008, I and fellow staff photographer Greg Kahn spearheaded a photo column where we light painted landmarks and historic sites in the Naples Daily News coverage area. It was a team effort that was fun, sometimes frustrating, but educational and definitely worth it. We published one picture a month for 12 months. Here they are. Feel free to click on the links to read the stories.
