We can't do anything.  We are other users like yourself.  Apple does not participate in these forums.
Report the theft to the Police.
Change your iTunes store password.
Maybe your homeowners or renters insurance will cover the loss.
Your chances of getting it back are not very good.
"Find My iPad" is a feel good feature.
Even if it told you where the iPad was located it would be foolhardy to try to recover it yourself.  A person that will steal other peoples property is not going to politely hand it back to you.  You could end up injured or worse.

    What To Do If Your iDevice Is Lost Or Stolen
    iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad
    If you activated Find My Phone before it was lost or stolen, you can track it only if it is connected to the Internet by Wi-Fi or cellular. What you cannot do is track your device using a serial number or other identifying number. You cannot expect Apple or anyone else to find your device for you. You cannot recover your loss unless you insure your device for such loss. It is not covered by your warranty.
    If your iPhone, iPod, iPod Touch, or iPad is lost or stolen what do you do? There are things you should have done in advance - before you lost it or it was stolen - and some things to do after the fact. Here are some suggestions:

  • I downloaded the new iOS 7 and i can't open safari in my iPad mini, what's going on?

    I downloaded the new iOS 7 and i can't open safari in my iPad mini, what's going on?

    You can't open it meaning it does not launch when you tap on the app icon? If that's what's happening try this and then see if Safari will launch.
    Go to Settings>Safari>Clear Cookies and Data.
    Now close Safari. To close Safari, drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to Safari and then swipe "up" on the Safari thumbnail app to close it.
    Now reboot the iPad. Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
    If Safari does launch and this isn't what you are experiencing - you need to explain in more detail what is going on.

    You should have said that so that those trying to help aren't wasting their time suggesting steps that you have already taken.
    Have you tried just powering down for a while and then try again a little later? Try another WiFi network? Reset your router?
