Steven George Gerrard MBE ( /ˈdʒɛrɑrd/; born 30 May 1980) is an English footballer who plays for and captains Premier League club Liverpool. He also has 91 caps for the England national team. He has played much of his career in a centre midfield role, but he has also been used as a second striker and right winger.[4]
Gerrard, who has spent his entire career at Anfield, made his début in 1998 and cemented his place in the first team in 2000, succeeding Sami Hyypiä as team captain in 2003. His honours include two FA Cups, three League Cups, one UEFA Champions League, one UEFA Cup, and two Super Cups. In 2005, Gerrard came third in voting for the Ballon d'Or.
Gerrard made his international debut in 2000 and has represented England at the Euro 2000 and Euro 2004, as well as the 2006 World Cup where he was the team's top goalscorer with two goals. Gerrard first captained his country at the 2010 World Cup in the absence of regular captain Rio Ferdinand, who missed the tournament through injury.[5] He was named again as England captain for the Euro 2012.
Gerrard is widely regarded as one of the greatest English footballers ever. Gerrard came second only to Kenny Dalglish in the "100 Players Who Shook The Kop" - a Liverpool fan poll.[6] Zinedine Zidane said in 2009 that he considered Gerrard one of the best footballers in the world.[7] In 2010, The Guardian named Gerrard to their World XI team, which compiled the greatest footballers of all time onto one squad.

Born in Whiston, Merseyside,[1] Gerrard started out playing for hometown team Whiston Juniors, where he was noticed by Liverpool scouts. He joined the Reds' youth academy at the age of nine.[8] Gerrard then had trials with various clubs at fourteen, but his success wasn't immediate — Gerrard never made it into the England Schoolboys team. Gerrard's trials included Manchester United, which he claimed in his 2006 autobiography was "to pressure Liverpool into giving me a YTS contract."[9] He signed his first professional contract with Liverpool on 5 November 1997.[9]
Gerrard made his Liverpool first-team debut on 29 November 1998 in a match against Blackburn Rovers as a last minute substitute for Vegard Heggem.[10] He made thirteen appearances in his debut season, filling in the midfield position for injured captain Jamie Redknapp[8] and playing on the right wing, but he scarcely contributed in the short on-pitch time he received, due to nervousness affecting his play.[11] Gerrard recalled in a November 2008 interview with The Guardian, "I was out of position and out of my depth." The Liverpool hierarchy nonetheless remained convinced that he would improve.[11] Gerrard saw himself as a defensive player primarily, looking to make key tackles rather than push the team forward.[10]
Gerrard partnered Redknapp in central midfield for the 1999–00 season. After starting the derby match against Everton on the bench, he replaced Robbie Fowler in the second half but received his first career red card for a late foul on Everton's Kevin Campbell.[12] Later that season, Gerrard scored his first senior goal in a 4–1 victory over Sheffield Wednesday.[13] However, he began to suffer from nagging back problems, which sports consultant Hans-Wilhelm Müller-Wohlfahrt later diagnosed as a result of accelerated growth, coupled with excessive playing, during his teenage years.[9] He was then beset by groin injuries that required four separate operations.[9]
In 2000–01, he made fifty starts in all competitions and scored ten goals as Liverpool won the League Cup, FA Cup, and the 2001 UEFA Cup.
Gerrard replaced Sami Hyypiä as Liverpool captain in October 2003, as manager Gérard Houllier said that he recognised Gerrard had demonstrated leadership qualities early on, but needed to mature.[14] He chose to extend his contract at the club, signing a new four-year deal.[15]
Houllier quit after a trophyless 2003–04 campaign, and Gerrard was linked with a move to Chelsea during the offseason. He admitted he was not "happy with the progress Liverpool has made", and that "for the first time in my career I've thought about the possibility of moving on."[16] In the end, Gerrard turned down a £20 million offer from Chelsea to stay with Liverpool and new coach Rafael Benítez.[17]
Liverpool were wracked with injury early in the 2004–05 season, and a foot injury suffered in a September league match against Manchester United shelved Gerrard until late November. He returned to score in the last five minutes of a Champions League group stage match against Olympiacos to secure Liverpool's advancement to the knockout round.[18] He claimed that this was his most important, if not his best, goal for Liverpool to date.[19] However, Gerrard netted an own goal during the 2005 League Cup final on 27 February, which proved decisive in Liverpool's 3–2 loss to Chelsea.[20]
During a six-minute stretch in the second half of the 2005 Champions League final against A.C. Milan, Liverpool came back from a three-goal deficit to tie the match at 3–3 after extra time, with Gerrard scoring one of the goals. Liverpool's third goal was gained as a penalty from a foul awarded to Liverpool when Gennaro Gattuso fouled Gerrard in Milan's penalty box. Gerrard did not participate in the penalty shootout, which Liverpool won 3–2 as they claimed their first Champions League trophy in twenty years,[21] though he was named the Man of the Match, and later received the UEFA Club Footballer of the Year award.[22]
In regards to his contract issues with Liverpool, Gerrard told the press after the final, "How can I leave after a night like this?"[23] But negotiations soon stalled and on 5 July 2005, after Liverpool turned down another lucrative offer from Chelsea, Gerrard rejected a club-record £100,000-a-week offer. Liverpool chief executive Rick Parry conceded the club had lost Gerrard, saying, "Now we have to move on. We have done our best, but he has made it clear he wants to go and I think it looks pretty final."[24] The next day, Gerrard signed a new four-year deal as Parry blamed the earlier breakdown of talks on miscommunication between the two sides.[25][26]
Gerrard scored 23 goals in 53 appearances in 2005–06, and in April became the first Liverpool player since John Barnes in 1988 to be voted the PFA Player of the Year.[27] He scored twice in the 2006 FA Cup final against West Ham United, including an equalizer that sent the match into extra time, and Liverpool won their second consecutive major trophy on penalties. The goals made him the only player to have scored in the FA Cup, League Cup, UEFA Cup and Champions League finals.[28] Gerrard netted a penalty as Liverpool eliminated league rival Chelsea in the 2006–07 Champions League semi-finals to return to their second final in three seasons, which they lost 2–1 to Milan.[29][30]
Gerrard suffered a hairline toe fracture in an August 2007 Champions League qualifier against Toulouse F.C.,[31] but returned four days later to play the entirety of a 1–1 league draw against Chelsea.[32] On 28 October 2007, Gerrard played his 400th game for Liverpool in a league match against Arsenal, in which he scored.[33][34] He scored in all but one of Liverpool's domestic and European matches during the month of November, and after scoring the only goal in a Champions League away tie against Olympique de Marseille on 11 December, he became the first Liverpool player since John Aldridge in 1989 to score in seven consecutive games in all competitions.[35]
Gerrard made his 300th Premier League appearance on 13 April 2008 in a match against Blackburn Rovers, scoring the opening goal,[36][37] and finished the season with twenty-one goals in all competitions, surpassing his total from the 2006–07 season. Gerrard was selected for the PFA Team of the Year and he was also one of the nominees or the PFA Player of the Year, alongside teammate Fernando Torres.[38][39]
Gerrard needed to undergo groin surgery at the beginning of the 2008–09 season, but the problem was not serious and he quickly returned to training.[40] He scored what appeared to be his hundredth career Liverpool goal against Stoke City on 20 September, but it was disallowed after Dirk Kuyt was ruled offside.[41] He achieved the milestone eleven days later in a 3–1 Champions League group stage win over PSV.[42]
He made his 100th appearance in European club competition for Liverpool on 10 March 2009 against Real Madrid and scored twice in a 4–0 win.[43] Four days after the impressive victory over Real, Gerrard would score at Old Trafford for the first time from the penalty spot, putting Liverpool ahead on their way to a 4–1 victory over Manchester United.[44] Following these results, three-time FIFA World Player of the Year Zinedine Zidane hailed the Liverpool skipper, saying "Is he the best in the world? He might not get the attention of Messi and Ronaldo but yes, I think he might be."[45] On 22 March 2009, Gerrard scored his first ever hat-trick in the Premier League, against Aston Villa, in a 5–0 victory.[46] On 13 May 2009, Gerrard was named as the 2009 Football Writers' Association Footballer of the Year, becoming the first Liverpool player to win the award in nineteen years. Gerrard had pipped Manchester United duo Ryan Giggs and Wayne Rooney in the poll voted for by journalists, beating Ryan Giggs by just 10 votes. Upon receiving the award, he was quoted as saying "I'm delighted but I'm a little bit surprised", he commented. "When you look at the quality of the players there are in this league, it's a great privilege to win this kind of award."[47] He ended the 2009–10 season with a total of 12 goals and 9 assists from 46 matches.
Following the 2009–10 season, Rafael Benítez departed Liverpool after six years and was succeeded as manager by Roy Hodgson, who quickly assured fans that Gerrard would not be sold.[2] To further eliminate any speculation surrounding his future at the club, Gerrard made a statement emphasising his excitement at the coming season with Liverpool and praising the signing of Joe Cole.[48] Gerrard soon played his first pre-season match of the 2010–11 season against Borussia Mönchengladbach on 1 August 2010 alongside new signing Joe Cole.[49]
Gerrard scored his first goal of the 2010–11 season from the penalty spot in a Europa League qualifier against Macedonian side FK Rabotnički on 5 August 2010.[50]
His next two goals came on 19 September at Old Trafford in a 3–2 loss against Manchester United; he scored from a penalty kick in the 64th minute and a free-kick 6 minutes later to level the game at 2–2.[51] He followed this up with the equaliser in a 2–2 home draw with Sunderland.[52] 11 days later Gerrard came off the bench to score a second-half hat-trick in a 3–1 win over Napoli in the Europa League.[53]
Gerrard missed the start of English Premier League season 2011–2012 due to groin injury which had kept him away for much of the 2010–2011 season as well.[54] Gerrard made his first start for Liverpool squad in the October match at Anfield against fierce rivals Manchester United. Gerrard scored the club's only goal in the match, from a free kick, which ended in a 1-1 draw. On October 29, Gerrard underwent a treatment to clear an infection in his right ankle, which was placed in a protective plaster cast. He was forced to miss Liverpool's league match against West Bromwich that day and was ruled out for at least the following week's match against Swansea the following week and England's friendly matches against Sweden and Spain the week after.[55] After a prolonged ankle injury recuperation, Gerrard returned to first team action in the match against Blackburn Rovers, coming off the bench. On 30 December, Gerrard came off the bench against Newcastle United and scored a fine goal.[56] Gerrard helped Liverpool reach their first cup final at Wembley Stadium in 18 years as Liverpool prevailed 3-2 on aggregate over Manchester City. Gerrard fired home a penalty during both legs to secure a trip to the Carling Cup Final against Cardiff in February 2012, which Liverpool won on penalties.
On his 400th league appearance for Liverpool, Gerrard scored a hat-trick to give Liverpool a 3-0 victory over rivals Everton in the Merseyside Derby on 13 March 2012.
Gerrard made his international debut against Ukraine on 31 May 2000.[57] That summer, he was called up for Euro 2000, making only one appearance as a substitute in a 1–0 win over Germany before England were eliminated in the group stage.[58][59] Gerrard scored his first international goal in the famous 5–1 victory over Germany in a 2002 World Cup qualifier in September 2001, and while England qualified, Gerrard was forced to pull out of the squad due to his ongoing groin problems after pulling up in Liverpool's final match of the season against Ipswich.[60]
He was a regular starter in Euro 2004, scoring once – against Switzerland – before England were eliminated by Portugal in the quarter-finals on penalties.[61] He participated in his first World Cup in 2006 and two goals, both in the group stage, against Trinidad & Tobago and Sweden, although his spot kick was one of three saved by goalkeeper Ricardo as England again bowed out to Portugal in the quarter-finals on penalties.[62] He was England's top scorer in the tournament.
Gerrard was made vice-captain of the England team by coach Steve McClaren,[63] and while he filled in for John Terry as captain, England suffered back-to-back losses to Russia and Croatia that ended their Euro 2008 qualifying hopes.[64] After new coach Fabio Capello took over the team in early 2008, Gerrard was given a trial run as captain but Capello settled on Terry for the role.[65][66] Gerrard was subsequently replaced as England vice-captain by Rio Ferdinand.[67]
Gerrard helped England qualify for the 2010 FIFA World Cup, scoring two goals in England's 5–1 win over Croatia.[68]
John Terry was replaced by Rio Ferdinand as captain in 2010, following revelations about the former's private life,[69] and Gerrard subsequently became vice-captain again. When the England team left for the 2010 World Cup, Gerrard was the most experienced player in the squad with 80 caps. During preparations for the 2010 FIFA World Cup, however, Rio Ferdinand was injured, meaning that Gerrard was appointed by Capello as captain for the tournament.[5] After the tournament Gerrard, part of a group of England players dubbed the "Golden Generation", confirmed that he would continue to be available for selection, despite suggestions from Capello that he would seek to re-build the team.[70]
In August 2010, Gerrard scored twice in a friendly match against Hungary and helped England to a 2–1 win.[71] Due to Ferdinand's continued absence through injury, Gerrard retained the captaincy for the opening match of the Euro 2012 qualifying campaign against Bulgaria, which England won 4–0. He was later named captain by new coach Roy Hodgson
Gerrard is a practising Catholic.[86] He and his wife, fashion journalist Alex Curran, married in a Catholic[86] ceremony at the Cliveden mansion in Buckinghamshire on 16 June 2007.[87][88] He has an older brother, Paul (not to be confused with former Everton goalkeeper Paul Gerrard), and his cousin Anthony plays for Cardiff. Steven and Alex have three daughters, Lilly-Ella (born 23 February 2004), Lexie (9 May 2006) and Lourdes (born 2 November 2011).[89]
In September 2006, Gerrard published his autobiography, Gerrard: My Autobiography, ghost-written by journalist Henry Winter, which went on to win the Sports Book of the Year honour at the British Book Awards.[90]
The autobiography ends with "I play for Jon-Paul." Gerrard's cousin, Jon-Paul Gilhooley, was killed in the 1989 Hillsborough Tragedy, when Gerrard was eight. Jon-Paul, who was 10 when he died, was the youngest of the 96 victims of the tragedy.[91]"It was difficult knowing one of your cousins had lost his life", Gerrard said. "Seeing his family's reaction drove me on to become the player I am today."[92]
On 1 October 2007, Gerrard was involved in a low-speed collision in Southport when the car he was driving hit a ten-year-old cyclist, who had shot into the street and inadvertently crossed Gerrard's path. He later visited the boy in the hospital and presented him with a pair of boots signed by Wayne Rooney, the boy's favourite player, after which he stayed to sign autographs for other young patients.[93]
Councillors of Knowsley voted to make Gerrard a Freeman of the Borough on 13 December 2007,[94] and two weeks later, he was made a Member of the Order of the British Empire by The Queen in The Queen's New Year Honours List, for services to sport.[95] He received an honorary fellowship from Liverpool John Moores University on 26 July 2008 as recognition for his contribution to sport.[96]
On 29 December 2008, Gerrard was taken into custody outside the Lounge Inn in Southport on suspicion of a section 20 assault.[97] He and two others were later charged with assault occasioning actual bodily harm and affray, relating to an incident which left the bar's disc jockey with a broken tooth and cuts to his forehead.[98][99] The three men were given police to court bail and were required to appear at North Sefton Magistrates' Court on 23 January 2009,[99] where they all pleaded not guilty.[100] The case was adjourned until 20 March when the assault charge was dropped but Gerrard was required to attend Liverpool Crown Court to face trial for affray.[101] On 3 April, Gerrard pleaded not guilty.[102]
The case went to trial in Liverpool Crown Court. Gerrard's co-defendants pleaded guilty before the trial but Gerrard maintained his innocence. Gerrard admitted hitting Marcus McGee but claimed it was in self defence and on July 24, Gerrard was found not guilty by the jury. Following the verdict, Gerrard said he was looking forward to getting back to playing football and putting the experience behind him.[103]
In 2011 Gerrard appeared in the film Will.
A newly opened hotel located in Indonesia in 2011 was named Stevie G in honour of him by the Liverpool supporting owners.[104]

Click here to review the 2012-2013 hunting seasons and bag limits. Be sure to keep your harvest record accurate, up-to-date and in your possession. Always carry it when hunting and fill it out before moving the animal. Note it before you tote it!
Since the 1970's, the harvest of bass by anglers has significantly declined because anglers have become conditioned to release all bass in order to promote conservation. However, the effectiveness of a size limit at restructuring a fish population declines with high amounts of voluntary catch-and-release.
Read the entire 2012-2013 Alabama Hunting & Fishing Digest online! Our unique digital edition allows you to page through the entire guide, just as if you were reading the magazine.
The white-tailed deer is the most popular game animal in Alabama. Approximately 200,000 licensed hunters averaged 20 days pursuing deer during Alabama's hunting season. All of this interest in deer hunting drives the $1.4 billion economic engine that hunting provides annually in Alabama.

In late March, the ASPCA played a critical role in a three-state dog fighting raid that resulted in the rescue of nearly 100 animals. A few weeks after this intricately coordinated effort to rescue dogs in Texas, Missouri and Kansas went off without a hitch, we're able to update you on the dogs and the dog fighters.
The Victims
When we found these dogs, many were doomed to live their whole lives tethered by heavy chains—and on the day of the raid, many were left outside to suffer through a blizzard. Now, says ASPCA Vice President of Field Investigations and Response Tim Rickey, they're living in an entirely different world.
When the dogs arrived at our temporary shelter, our veterinary professionals, led by the ASPCA's Dr. Sarah Kirk, examined them quickly and thoroughly. Some dogs needed immediate care, while others require ongoing treatment which they are now receiving from ASPCA and local veterinarians.
An ASPCA behaviorist will be on the ground at the shelter throughout this operation, and while the dogs stay in our clean and spacious shelter, they will benefit from behavioral enrichment programs that incorporate toys, games and lots of fun interactions with people. The dogs will have regular access to one of several large exercise playpens, where they'll get to play with our responders and burn off excess doggy energy.
"Every day," Rickey says, "we're focusing on taking care of these animals and providing the best environment that we can for them."
The Suspects
The ASPCA continues to work to collect evidence and provide other support to law enforcement, working to ensure dog fighters pay for harming these animal victims. The charges are just starting to roll in:
Last week Pete Davis Jr. and Melvin L. Robinson, both of Kansas City, Kansas, were each charged in federal court with one count of transporting animals for participation in an animal fighting venture in interstate commerce. If convicted, they face up to five years in federal prison and a possible fine of up to $250,000.
"The case is not over yet—there's still a lot of work to be done on the investigation side," says Rickey, adding that he hopes to see more arrests in relation to this raid.
The ASPCA had been assisting the FBI, U.S. Attorney's Office, Missouri State Highway Patrol and other law enforcement agencies with the planning of this large-scale raid since November 2012. ASPCA Blood Sports Director Terry Mills provided his expertise to help these agencies maximize the operation's impact. Our next steps: continuing to provide top-notch care for these animals and working with authorities to secure the right to place dogs in loving homes.
If you've given to the ASPCA recently, from the bottom of our hearts: thank you. This raid is an enormous undertaking and a huge commitment, but we are dedicated to being there for animal victims of cruelty whenever they need us. If you haven't yet given lately, please consider doing so today. On behalf of animals across the country, thank you!
Thank you for your work in protecting the helpless
My son's beloved buddy, Rock got stolen out of his home in Oklahoma. Will the pictures of the dogs be posted somewhere in website? I'd like to see if they have Rocko.. These idiots deserve long jail time. I don't want to see the courthouse let them go this easy..
Thank You for saving these poor babies. I am so glad they will have a future to look forward to. It is so sad this is only one of who knows how many rings are really out there. I think they should be put to the strongest penalties possible. I think the people who run these things should just be locked together and they can fight each other to the death instead of the dogs. Society wouldn't even miss them. They do more than just hurt animals they hurt people too. Violence doesn't stop at one thing. Thank you so much for helping to save the ones you do.
These assholes need to be put in the ring with the dogs to kill them....these dogs get way too much bad publicity. Humans are cruel and should be punished more for a cruel act like this.
I hope the woman missing her dogs above finds them safe.
These dog fighting rings use other dogs as bait...how sad are people?
Thanks to all of you whom rescued these dogs. They deserve a better life...the guys who did this do not deserve to live.
THANK YOU SO MUCH for saving these dear dogs...I know they will go on to live wonderful lives. They wouldn't have made it with out you! What a great organization you are..Blessings!
Let's work to keep escalating the sentence to match those given for similar crimes against humans. If there are politicians who condone this abusive behavior, or feel that the punishment is sufficient, they should be locked up with them. There are men who go to jail for years for stealing automobiles. Why let these vermin free with a slap on the wrist?
With millions of pet owners around the country, I don't think it would take much to put a national referendum on the ballot that hands out minimum sentences of 25 years for dog fighting. Maybe once this garbage comes out of prison as old, broken, poor excuses for human beings, they may change their ways. If they are released after a few years, guaranteed they will return to do the deed as the money involved is too large, and the costs are too low.
These are not civilized people, and should be shipped to offshore prisons where they can be subjected to torture, violence, and cruel living conditions, just like they provide to the victims they profit from.
Just like Michael Vick, these POS needed to get more time in prison.
It seems to me that the human aspect of dog fighting has been ignored.The ASPCA was founded to protect humans who were abused.History tells us that animal abusers often graduate to abusing humans.There was and is a severe and dangerous precident to consider.whether you love animals or not does not matter.(I am a pit bull parent).We need to think long and hard about the risks these people pose to the public.Long prison terms and large fines are merely a start.The government wastes our money everyday.These abusers need to be handled appropriately for their lifetime.The life of an animal may be saved and moe importantly the life of a fellow human may be spared as well
I hope they get the maximum sentence allowed by law....
Hallelujah! Put these perverted clowns behind bars forever.

What a sweet adorable little baby.
What a sweet adorable little baby.
Awww, how cute! The baby looks a lot like Liu Tao! She's gonna turn into a very cute/lovely woman, just like her mother... Her eyes are already sparkling, and her smile is adorable!

Gee, I didnt even know LT was pregnant and had given birth! It hasn't even been a year since she tied the knot right? Maybe it was a shotgun but anyway, I have to agree that the baby looks soo sweet and adorable! She has very fair skin and seems to have inherited her mommy's eyes and nose!
There are no shortcuts to any place worth going.
Wise Fool
yeah, that's what I thought too, about it being fast that she gave birth. but it has been more than 9 months since the wedding, right? i hope liu tao comes back to acting after 1 or 2 more years of taking care of the daughter.
wow her daughter is cute, really nice eyes. i wonder if liu tao will come back to the entertainment circle
SAN FRANCISCO GIANTS 2010 and 2012 CHAMPS
she´s still young and pretty but retired...what a pity.
Beautiful and deadly, she is a true descendant of dragon. Fighting for the forces of right and justice, she leaves a series of broken bodies and broken hearts wherever she goes.
The title of the series is 'Dali Princess' and it is currently broadcasting in China.
Liu Tao have post several more pictures of her baby online...check it out
Thanks for the news and pix! WOW, I can't believe that she already has a baby. How fast!! She has a girl too. SHe is really cute! Maybe one day she will come back to the circle, who knows??
Respect other people's opinions and views. If we learn how to do that than all of these fights and arguments will not occur.
what series was it that she was singing in that 'huang mei diao' style? i used to watch old series where the women sang like that and wanna reminisce.
Found a clip of LT's wedding ceremony on youtube. Seemed like her husband is very attentive and worship her a lot! Especially love the part where he kneel to give her the bouquet and she burst out laughing- lol.

May 31, 2011 — Recently, Lassen County and neighboring Plumas County has been plagued with multiple structure fires, the latest causing extensive smoke damage. Young Sing restaurant was only saved because citizens saw smoke coming from the building and firefighters were able to get to the scene before the building was engulfed in flames.
Unfortunately, a much liked employee of the city of Susanville, Chivon Nelson, did not survive after a fire consumed the mobile home she and her fiancé and his children and brother were living in out in Standish. While the actual fire investigation is still ongoing, stories of the early morning May 21 blaze state Nelson was instrumental in saving the lives of two small children and her fiancé Jim Shively.
May 24, 2011 — You have heard us defend the Brown Act on more than one occasion in these pages. That's because it is among the most powerful tools the public has to hold government officials accountable.
That is why Feather Publishing has joined more than 90 other newspapers, led by the First Amendment Coalition (FAC), in filing an amicus brief last week in an appeal of a Brown Act lawsuit involving the Tulare County Board of Supervisors. The suit challenges the supervisors' practice of holding lunchtime meetings — regularly and often — that were nonpublic and held without notification to the public or media.
May 17, 2011 — Two strong opinions have surfaced recently at Lassen County Board of Supervisors meetings regarding the future of the Local Reuse Authority properties acquired by Lassen County during the Defense Department's Base Closure and Realignment (BRAC) process. The first and louder view is we've already spent too much money, gotten too little return and now's the perfect time to just jettison the excess property and walk away. The second, quieter view is we should look forward rather than backward, stay the course and continue to explore the many economic development opportunities in the South County.
Truth be told, District 3 Supervisor Larry Wosick's frightening cost projections probably aren't too far off the mark — since about 2003 the county has spent something like $800,000 in an attempt to develop the properties into something positive near Herlong.
May 10, 2011 — The Lassen County Grand Jury is a judicial body of 19 citizens impaneled to act as a community "watchdog." The rules governing the makeup, organization, powers and duties of grand juries in California are found in the California Penal Code §888-939. The rules to be on the grand jury can be found at lassencourt.ca.gov.
Lassen Union High School Board member Skip Jones resigned Wednesday, May 4 from the Lassen County Grand Jury in a preemptive action before a noon LUHSD meeting held to discuss in part the conflict of interest of Jones serving on the high school board and grand jury simultaneously.

Friday marked the end of a historic and very productive trip to London and Israel for Governor Perry. The trip provided him a chance to talk about Texas' world class economic climate, start the dialogue with companies who are looking to expand or move overseas, and join with President Peres, Israel's Minister of Education, Shai Piron, and Texas A&M Chancellor John Sharp, to announce the creation of Texas A&M University at Nazareth - Peace Campus. The Nazareth Campus will be the System's second branch campus in the Middle East – following Texas A&M University at Qatar.

Gov. Rick Perry today addressed the Water Technology and Environmental Control Exhibition and Conference (WATEC) Israel 2013, a leading event for the water industry that brings together international business and government leaders to discuss water solutions and showcase technological advancements. Texas and Israel face similar challenges with meeting the water needs of a continually growing population and economy.

When Gov. Rick Perry visits Israel this week, he will leave a surprising piece of Texas behind: his alma mater, Texas A&M University.
Mr. Perry will join Texas A&M leaders and Israeli officials in Jerusalem on Wednesday to announce the creation of Texas A&M Peace University, a branch campus of the sixth largest university in the United States. It will be built in Nazareth, known as the Arab capital of Israel.

Let's see. I ordered and took delivery of a cluster in 7 weeks. The processors (Opteron 246) were still top-end at the time I ordered and took delivery. I've got an RFP out now for an addition to the cluster. Delivery is quoted as <3 weeks, and we're getting top-end processors. Greg's right.

As I drink and review each beer I am going to want/need somewhat of a rating system familiar to that of a cigar rating system.

If you notice in recent times, most stars won't reveal they have a significant other until they are engaged or have gotten married. Bf-gf relationships can break up anytime and it's not great publicity if they do, e.g. I remember the media fallout with Ekin Cheng when he broke up with Maggie Siu, as well as when Vic Zhou and Barbie broke up. I think Deng Chao and Sun Li kept calling each other soulmates until their relationship was established to the point of "intending to marry" phase.
I believe Peter Ho was attached to Jang Nara for quite awhile, but both never admitted in public that they were going out. There were also rampant rumours that he has a serious gf called Peggy who isn't in the entertainment line. But when he was promoting Unbeatables last August, he admitted to the media he wasn't seeing anyone. And then also mentioned to his fans (on his weibo) during his birthday party last September that he's so busy with his career, he doesn't have time to think about love now.

MicroSpikes Microspikes
MicroSpikes Microspikes
Quality product that transforms your trail shoes to snow shoes
I do many. many miles running and walking over UK mountains. In winter I am reluctant to swap my light and nimble trail shoes for walking boots. The Microspikes are light and easy to fit. The grip is amazing, they compete with any boot / spike combinations I have seen out in the mountains.
29 April 2013
Just excellent
Bought these spikes when walking Kentmere horseshoe 8/2/2013, snow and ice expected. They performed brilliantly on the ice up Shipman knots I felt really confident the spikes did their job perfectly. In the snow which was loose but frozen about 40cm deep no balling but there was some as we descended to the wetter stuff. Due to the connection of the front and rear spikes by chains the whole assembly stays in place, no slippage of the spikes off the heel as reported by a rival make. They are expensive yes but well worth the outlay. The competition has tried a copy of sorts but they seem to have disappeared . They are as simple to fit and remove as stated. Great product
10 February 2013
Brilliant when needed!
I recently took part in the Spine Race which covers the Penine Way. With the weather cold and the possibility of snow I invested in some of these for emergency use. On day one the slabs that form the pathway were icy so I fitted the Kahtoolas over my trainers. They made a great difference, purchase on ice and snow was fantastic. It goes without saying that when on hard ground running they are not the most comfortable of accessories, but on soft to medium ground they dig in and don't affect running/walking style much. They were also used when our footpath got to that icy stage and they were just as good for a leisurely walk. Not the lightest for ultra marathons but were superior to 'other' brands which offset the weight.
04 February 2013
Great Quality
Perfect microspikes for skiing in icy conditions aswell as walking over ice later on! Only downside is that they are very expensive, but they are worth it.

Posted: Jan 18, 2013 4:12 PM by Katy Harris KXLF News
BUTTE-While some people will have the day off for Martin Luther King Day, others will be spreading Dr. King's teachings to others.
Emily White is an AmeriCorps VISTA member in Butte.
She works through the service learning program at Montana Tech.
On Monday she will participate in Read for Peace, which is a Martin Luther King National Service Day event.
On this day volunteers will head to school classrooms and ready stories about Dr. King's life and teachings.
Then students will draw pictures of their dream of a better world.
"It's important to recognize that service is a powerful and easy way that anyone can contribute on National Service Days and it's an easy way to make a difference in your own community," says White.
White will be reading to Kindergarten through 3rd grade students in Butte on Monday.

My hair stylist used this on my hair, and I loved it. Was happy to find it on Overstock for a better price than she paid! It blow dries smooth and quickly. I like that it has heat setting options and speed options. Highly recommend!
Dries quickly and evenly. It's actually quieter and lighter than I expected from the review. Love the long cord. At the beginning I would accidentally click a switch, but within a week I learning to avoid it. The hot hair then cold blast sets the curl nicely. I was tired of wearing out the convenience store models, and I'm glad I've decided to invest in a nice hair dryer :-)
Excellent value for the price. This dryer is small and comfortable to hold. It has cool, warm, and hot settings. The quality is great.
Came on time, works great. I would definitely recommend this to a friend.
This is a great hair dryer for think hair. Cuts drying time down significantly. I wish I had purchased this sooner.
I have used this hair dryer for the past couple months. It works well & dries my hair quicker than the typical drugstore dryer.
Great Buy!! I needed a good blow dryer and this fit the bill. It's a great investment & I'm looking forward to using it for years to come.
I have long, thick, natural curly/wavy, color treated hair. I never knew there was such a difference in hair dryers! It took the thickness down a couple notches and it looks so soft and smooth. I love, love this hair dryer!
Love It. Best price on Internet. Thanks overstock!
I wish I could give this product more than 5 stars. Although I did not purchase mine from Overstock, I am on the site today to buy one as a gift. I use my dryer evey day and had my Babyliss dryer for over 7 years (beginning of 2005 to mid 2012) before it finally stopped working--and I replaced it with another one just like it.. For me, a hair dryer lasting 7 years is unheard of. I love the variable heat settings, cool shot, and reliability, and it dries my hair very quickly. Lastly, in 2005 I paid $90 for it.

I have had a customer that desired a serious evaluation of Windows as an HPC platform, because they had an in-house application that had been written on Windows. We came up with a feasible design, that basically reduced the administrative headaches etc to a minimum, and used a Linux box as the head node with a web portal for job submission, etc, but still advised the customer that it would probably cost them less to port the (relatively small) application to Linux. Our design leveraged a lot of customisation of Windows at a fairly low level, and while it was likely to be quite easy to maintain, it was not suitable for implementation by an average Windows admin. In the end the customer agreed and decided it made more sense to port the application to Linux. I would add my voice to the others to say that even if you don not have an experienced Linux admin, it will probably be easier for you to build and run a Linux cluster alongside your windows domain than to build an actually efficient Windows based HPC system. However, if you are stuck with Win32, there is a Microsoft initiative centred around HPC, which is in beta: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsserver2003/hpc/default.mspx#EDBAAA It includes and SDK, MPI, and a resource manager, though I have not tried them directly. Microsoft was giving demos at ISC2005, and the reps there hinted about providing significant assitance for early adopters. If you are serious about running a cluster with a Win32 OS, you should probably check it out. Keep in mind that as with Linux HPC, you will want to strip Windows to the bare minimum services necessary to run the OS, your resource manager, and your applications. Windows by default starts a huge heap of services that do not make sense at all in a pure HPC environment. Make sure the thing is firewalled (not just nat'd) in both direction, and insist that you maintain tight control over which executables you allow to be run on the cluster. Regarding MPI, in addition to the commercial MPIs, LAM-MPI should build on Cygwin, though I'm not sure what sort of performance you could expect in comparison to Linux on the same hardware. regards, -Ryan -- Ryan Sweet <ryan.sweet at aoes.com> Advanced Operations and Engineering Services AOES Group BV http://www.aoes.com Phone +31(0)71 5795521 Fax +31(0)71572 1277

Cyndi began her healing arts journey back in the late 90's with some meditation courses and Reiki classes. She followed her Reiki education from Master Usui Reiki, to Master Karuna Reiki to Crystal Star Healing. Reiki had such a positive impact on her life that she felt compelled to be able to "touch" more people with Reiki.
A second buyout in the corporate world opened up an opportunity to embark on some education while her children were still young at home. Cyndi studied Massage Therapy at Connecticut Center for Massage Therapy and graduated with high honors in April of 2010.
Her first job was at a Chiropractic Office. She is a long-time believer in Chiropractic and to be able to combine Chiropractic with her passion for Massage and Reiki seemed like a dream come true. Her sessions were often very clinical, working on specific joints to lessen pain and increase motion. She has experience working with a variety of different pathologies.
With such a passion for energy work CranioSacral therapy was of high interest so Cyndi took a workshop in September of 2010 and enjoys incorporating this modality in her therapeutic sessions as well. Cyndi has always been a big believer in the healing power of the body and the body/mind connection.
Cyndi then went on to work at a Naturopathic Center/Spa. The serene environment of a spa allowed her to combine her clinical knowledge into a nurturing relaxing massage, creating a luxurious experience for the client. She also enjoys incorporating Reiki and Aromatherapy into Massage, Bodywrap and Bodyscrub sessions creating an incredibly pampered experience for each client.
Cyndi combines the client's health goals, her clinical knowledge and intuition to craft a specialized session for each client. Each client is different and each session for that client is different. Everything is always changing and evolving. "The healer is always healing."
After building a creative design career in the arts and corporate environment, Marianne chose to pursue a career in the health and fitness field. Her interest in massage peaked after a week-long bike ride with 2000 riders, during which she took advantage of a tent dedicated solely to massage and found pain relief and healing as well as improved performance for the next day's ride.
Marianne is a graduate of Connecticut Center of Massage Therapy, Newington, CT, and a member of the American Massage Therapy Association. She provides a personalized massage guided by your individual needs and preferences and through any of a suite of modalities, including Swedish,Therapeutic, deep tissue, hot stone therapy, Thai on the table, acupressure, sports massage, as well as spa body wraps. Her training and intuition will help you relax, slow down, and reduce pain and everyday stresses — a comprehensive healing experience that goes beyond the relief of physical symptoms.

a wonderful hotel. we decided to take a break from the traveller route and visit koh yao - such a good idea. the paradise is just that - paradise. great food, good service, not overpriced western food but great quality and priced thai fayre. really enjoyed it, and the pool was idyllic. the extra few euros for the private jacuzzi was well worth it – May 11, 2012
–Caroline G.
the resort itself was perfect. seculed, romantic, friendly. The people we met amazing, only eating our evening meal once on our own! The staff most friendly, good at their jobs. We recommomend Paradise to couples and singles looking to chill out. There is plenty to do, massage, yoga[ if your into it] or little to do as you like. – Jul 24, 2012
–Barry J
The rooms are luxurious and rustic at the same time - if that makes sense. They are big and comfortable - two bathrooms - one outside one which really does make you feel like you are in the jungle - lots of random animals around the resort! – Apr 17, 2012

If you run a business, company, or organization that hosts entertainment events then you need an event production company. Hosting a large scale event can be a daunting task without the proper know-how. For any organization the best solution is to turn to event production professionals.
Who Needs Event Hosting?
The sheer volume of organizations that need help hosting different events are impressive. For some the idea of event hosting goes no further than a conference, or musical concert. However, event production is suited to handle everything from quality gala dinners, to product launches, to road shows!
The Event Production Process
Perhaps all event production means to you is a place to rent things like tables, stages, AV equipment, or lighting, but in fact the job goes much deeper! Event production is there from start to finish – from helping you to flesh out your ideas into real options, to dealing with the analysis of your event after it is over so that you can gauge how successful it was.
Along the way your event hosting will make sure that, no matter what your event, it goes off without a hitch! Different companies offer different levels of service – like photographing the event for you, or renting out equipment, décor, employees, etc. Some production companies can even help market your event!
Artistic Flair
Event productions takes care of the organization and logistics of your event, while bringing their own creative flare. Most event production companies employ artistic people who can do everything from setting your stage, to designing backdrops, costumes, visuals, or computer generated graphics/videos.
Whether you are a business professional seeking a conference, an organization planning a gala luncheon, or a bar with dreams of a big concert, an event production company will make your event as classy or exhilarating as you want!

Elderly man found dead in car in Phelps
Posted at: 02/15/2013 2:54 PM
Ontario County Sheriff's Deputies have discovered an elderly man dead in his car in Phelps.
Sheriff's Deputies were called to County Road #6 and Route 96 in Phelps Friday morning for the report of a car over an embankment. Sheriff's Deputies determined the car failed to stop at a stop sign on County Road #6, crossed Route 96 and went over the embankment on Route 96, coming to rest approximately 40 yards down in the creek on its side.
Sheriff's Deputies found 77-year-old Owen F. Conner, of Sodus, dead inside.
An investigation revealed that Conner was reported missing by the Barnwell County Sheriff's Office in South Carolina on January 31 and was last known to be enroute to Sodus.

This is the fire engine I've been waiting for after the 'forest' fire series. The extendable ladder and hose are great. I also like the firefighter accessories, like the hand saw and breathing mask. The figures are very detailed, too. My 3-year old daughter says this is the 'only' Lego set she likes, which is unfortunate, because it's about 1 out of 200 in our house.

This is a great Lego for new and experienced builders. The instructions are easy to follow. The features allow my son to actually re-enact fire fighter work. Would recommend it to any little guy who loves Legos and firemen.

About Me Stay At Home Parent
We got this for my 4-year-old son. While he did require lots of help to get it together, he loves playing with it. When hes rough, it falls apart, but that's half the fun right?
lots of little bits
By Jess mom of C
from Carson, CA
About Me Working Parent
son loves the lego fire truck, but the ladder keeps coming off, and the roof keeps breaking in two when he plays with it because it's too pieces. a couple little pieces were missing out of our set, but not a big deal, since we have some 'spares' that we were able to fill the space with. overall nice truck, and much fancier than the Lego trucks we used to build when I was a kid!
