We’re excited this year to have lined up great prizes and food from Sammy's Wild Game Grill and Real Meals 365! More About Olivia’s Story Olivia’s story started before she was born. During Leslie’s pregnancy, we found out that she was growing slower than most babies and were referred to a series of specialists associated with Texas Children’s Hospital. As a result of those visits, we learned that Olivia really looked like a normal baby, just smaller and with a few issues that we’d need to look into after she was born. Olivia was born July 20, 2009 and weighed in at 3 pounds, 11 ounces. Right away, a neonatology team whisked Olivia to a prepared area to be evaluated. She had a blockage in her airway and wasn’t breathing. The blockage was cleared, Olivia met mom and then went straight to the Neonatal ICU at Texas Children’s. After that, Olivia was watched 24x7 by the staff at Texas Children’s for 57 days. Olivia’s first few days in the NICU were trying for the entire family, but mostly for her. During that time she essentially had her entire body imaged and evaluated by doctors at Texas Children’s. Olivia has complete blood work done, an MRI of her head, an ultrasound of her head, an ultrasound of her heart, an echocardiogram of her heart, an ultrasound of her abdomen, x-rays of her lungs, and complete sequencing of her chromosomes. These were literally the worst moments of our lives, as the doctors told us that there was a chance that Olivia had a life threatening condition that she most likely wouldn’t survive. So we waited, and cried, and waited, and cried, and prayed, and prayed, and cried, and prayed, and prayed, and waited, and cried, and waited. Then, one by one, the tests came back, all positive! Olivia has an extremely rare chromosomal deletion, something that wouldn’t have been diagnosable a few years ago. That condition has resulted in minor issues, but nothing life threatening. She’ll have delays as she develops and her eyesight and hearing may be pretty bad, but from where we started with a life threatening diagnosis, we’re OK with that. I’d be lying if I said that since Olivia came home from the hospital that things have been normal, but we wouldn’t have it any other way. She has therapy almost every day and we go to TCH A LOT. She’s our little sweetheart and wouldn’t be here with us today without Texas Children’s. Watching this little girl fight through all of this hardship has been life changing; it’s so amazing what this little girl’s determination has taught us. -- Chad and Leslie Stevens --

This tradition, which raises scholarship funds for Texas youth, will once again lead the Houston Livestock Show and RodeoTM (HLSR) Parade past thousands of cheering spectators in downtown Houston. Last year, nearly 13,000 participants took part in the Rodeo Run, raising $360,000 for the HLSR Educational Fund. Since the race began in 1988, the company has raised more than $2.9 million for the benefit of the college scholarship fund. Runners and walkers will experience Houston’s only point-to-point 10K race and 5K fun run/walk in a festive atmosphere that celebrates the city’s western heritage. A combination of Texas flavor and hospitality, along with a Texas-sized post-race party, makes the event one of the most popular and memorable races in the region. Awards: 10K • First-place overall male and female runners, first-place male and female masters runners, and first-place male and female wheelchair winners will receive a custom, etched-glass trophy and two round-trip (nonrefundable) tickets to anywhere Continental Airlines flies in the U.S. 48, Alaska, Canada, Mexico, Central America or the Caribbean. • The top three age group finishers in the male and female divisions will receive special trophies. • No Duplicate Winners.

PAULY SHORE (Special Event)

2011-12-17 05:55:36

**SPECIAL EVENT!**Pauly recently wrapped his directorial feature debut, You'll Never Wiez in this Town Again, which he also wrote, produced, and starred in. "Wiez" is a semi-autobiographical dark comedy that also stars Earl Brown (There's Something About Mary), Jaimie Bergman (Son of the Beach) and a wide range of cameos from: Sean Penn, Whoopi Goldberg, Ellen Degeneres, Dr. Dre, Clint Howard, Perry Farrell, Fred Durst, Verne Troyer, Andy Dick, Mark Mc Grath, Jerry Springer, Montell Williams, Sally Jesse Raphael, Kurt Loder, and many, many more. You can catch Pauly in the Dr. Dre and Snoop Dog movie the "Wash", available in video stores now. You can also catch him in Spooge: Two Months in the Life Of…, which is an unpredictable documentary directed by Pauly and is best described as Roger and Me meets Truth or Dare. The movie follows him on his escapades to Cannes, New York City, Las Vegas, the Midwest and Los Angeles. His fourth comedy recording, Pauly Shore: Hollywood We Have A Problem, is now available online @ www.paulyshore.com. Pauly again starred as the voice of Goofy's son's best friend in the animation feature, An Extremely Goofy Movie. Earlier last year Pauly played comic legend, Lenny Bruce, in the USA movie, Hefner. Pauly gained national attention in 1990 when his MTV precedent-setting show, Totally Pauly, became an immediate hit and continued to run for four years, opening the floodgates for television and film roles. In 1993, he wrote and starred in a one-hour HBO television special, Pauly Does Dallas, which garnered rave reviews and loyal fans. He made his feature film debut in the wildly popular Encino Man, the first in a three-picture deal with Disney Studios; Son-in-Law and In the Army Now, followed. Starring roles in Jury Duty (Sony Studios), Bio Dome (MGM) with co-star Stephen Baldwin, and The Curse of Inferno (Showtime) continued to ensure Pauly's popularity with audiences worldwide. Pauly's five studio movies have grossed a total of well over one hundred and fifty million dollars and are constantly being shown on primetime television and all cable channels. His first comedy album, The Future of America (WTG/Sony), was named Best Comedy Album by the College Music Journalists (CMJ) in 1991. The National Association of Record Merchandisers (NARM) nominated his second album, Scraps From the Future (WTG/Sony), for a Best Sellers Award. The third recording, Pink Diggly Diggly (Priority Records), taped live at The Comedy Store, paved the way for the fourth. Pauly is a frequent guest on Howard Stern, David Letterman and Craig Killborn. He is always in the public eye with his many sold out comedy shows throughout the country and most recently Pauly was a headliner at the Montreal Comedy Festival. PLEASE NOTE: All tickets are non-refundable and non-transferable, so please be certain of the date and time of your show show before purchase. Seating is general admission (first come first served) for the first show of the evening. The second and/or third shows will be assigned seating, based on the order of when the ticket was purchased.

Urban Dare Houston | Houston, Texas 77007 | Saturday ...

2012-02-03 15:20:31

Urban Dare is the race where smarts can beat speed. Teams of two solve clues to find checkpoints, where they must take photos or perform dares. It's like a one-day Amazing Race. Get ready for the best challenge you ever took. Take the dare! We will begin check-in at 11:00 and will be taking registration up to the start of the race. Look for us in the light blue t-shirts. You must wear your Urban Dare shirts throughout the race, which we will give you at check-in. You should bring a cell phone and a digital camera to show your pictures at the end of the race. A cell phone camera will work. Maps are also handy and you should have someone to call to help look up clues. I also recommend a pen or pencil to take notes. The Urban Dare start is unique. We will ask multiple choice trivia questions and you will move into A, B, C or D areas depending on your answer. Get a few answers correct and you are on your way. This gives us a staggered start, but we'll be through it quickly. You may not use your phones at this stage of the race. Once you are out of the starting blocks, you will pick up your clue sheets and be on your way. You can call friends as much as you want for help on clues. For the checkpoints that mention a dare, you must check in with the Urban Dare official, accomplish your task, and get your passport stamped before moving on. On checkpoints that mention a photo, you must get a photo with both team members to show you were both there. This is a team race. You must be together throughout the race. You may walk, run or use public transportation to get to checkpoints. At checkpoints with dares, you must accomplish a task and get your passport stamped to move on to the next checkpoint. Dares range from throwing a bulls-eye, doing a climbing wall, completing a puzzle or eating something (things people like, not bugs). We expect the winners will finish the race in about 2 hours and most of you will finish under 4 hours. We are working to provide a fun-filled day for you, while providing some good challenges.

Corey Holcomb will perform a stand-up comedy at a funeral if they're serving drinks. And he'll kill. A native of inner city Chicago, Corey's distinctive voice of what it means to be "ghetto" and what it takes to be a player makes him one the most engaging and appealing acts in comedy. No matter how cold his stories of poverty, street life, and women may be, he always warms you with his charming smile, and he certainly leaves you rolling with laughter. Corey hit his first open mic in 1992 when Adele Givens called him to the stage. He was a smashing success and has been a full-time comedian ever since. He has taken top honors at the Miller Genuine Draft Comedy Search, Budweiser Comedy Competition, Chicago Home Jam, and Laffapalooza. He has appeared at the Montreal Just for Laughs Festival and the Chicago Comedy Festival. Corey's film and television credits include 20th Century Fox's "Like Mike," a recurring role on UPN's "Half & Half," NBC's "The Tonight Show" and "Late Friday," Fox's "Mad TV," Comedy Central's "Premium Blend," HBO's "Def Comedy Jam," "It's Showtime at the Apollo," NBC's "Last Comic Standing" and BET's "Comic View."
