The Naked and Famous
It's been quite a year for NZ five-piece The Naked and Famous. We spoke to them ahead of their appearance at Big Day Out…
Did The Naked and Famous have a lucky break? How did you get started?
Firstly, yes. We're on our 'lucky break' right now. 'Young Blood' has made it's way all around the world. We've only just signed a record deal with Fiction (from England) and we're already YouTube partners, ha ha. The album will be out early next year and then we'll be touring, touring, touring… and touring. Secondly, we got started by starting. Aaron, Alisa and I met up a few years back and began writing and recording demos that would become our first two EPs, This Machine and No Light. In 2009, David and Jesse came on board and we began writing Passive Me, Aggressive You, which we recorded and produced ourselves. Special Problems have done all our videos and artwork… did I miss anything?
'Punching In a Dream' was featured in The Vampire Diaries, how important is mainstream exposure?
Well, large-scale mainstream exposure usually helps grow your profile which in turn, but often not right away, equals financial and commercial success. It's pretty basic – the more people that hear your music, the better. Being a working full time artist is a bit of a dream job for me. In saying that, we're not doing this to get syncs or mainstream success. We love music – the end. Everything else is a bonus.
Do you watch the show?
The only vampire show we watch is True Blood.
What TV show would you love to appear on?
Trailer Park Boys.
Who are your influences?
Mainly just Trailer Park Boys.
Passive Me, Aggressive You is a great title. What's the most passive aggressive thing you've done?
Thanks! It's a lyric in the opening track 'All Of This'. Been a smart ass in an interview but still kept answering the interview questions.
If you could collaborate with anyone who would it be?
I don't think there's one singular band. Every band, group, artist works differently. We have so many treasured albums. I think there's a whole bunch of '90s artists we'd love to work with. Ones we grew up listening to, but I think the idea of working with new artists seems a bit more vital.
The video for 'Young Blood' is quite beautiful, can you tell us about it?
Probably better to ask Special Problems that question. They have created all our artwork and videos since day one. The narratives are never literal interpretations of the lyrics or anything like that. They're more like visual interpretations of the music. We mostly just approach them with a "What do you guys wanna do?"
What's next?
Well it looks like we'll be touring and promoting Passive Me, Aggressive You for the next year or so. We're always demoing and working on new material so we'll be inadvertently creating album 2. Maybe a few remixes.

New treatment for severe malaria
The most dangerous form of malaria is difficult to treat and claims two million lives a year. Now, researchers at Karolinska Institutet in Sweden have developed a powerful new weapon against the disease.
Severe anaemia, respiratory problems and encephalopathy are common and life-threatening consequences of serious malaria infection. The diseases are caused when the malaria bacteria P.falciparium infects the red blood cells, which then accumulate in large amounts, blocking the flow of blood in the capillaries of the brain and other organs.
The reason that the blood cells conglomerate and lodge in the blood vessels is that once in the blood cell the parasite produces proteins that project from the surface of the cell and bind with receptors on other blood cells and on the vessel wall, and thus act like a glue. The challenge facing scientists has been to break these bonds so that the infected blood cells can be transported by the blood stream into the spleen and destroyed.
The research group, which is headed by Professor Mats Wahlgren, has now developed a substance that prevents infected blood cells from binding in this way. The substance also releases blood cells already bound. Using this method, scientists have been able to treat severe malaria in rats and primates effectively; it now remains to be seen whether these results can be replicated in people.
"There's often a lack of ability to treat people suffering from severe malaria," says Professor Wahlgren. "We've developed a substance that might be able to help these patients."
Previously, an anti-coagulant called heparin was used in the treatment of severe malaria. Heparin was able to release the blood cells, but it was soon withdrawn when it was shown that the substance caused internal bleeding. The new substance is a development of heparin, and has the important difference of having no effect on normal blood coagulation.
The study, which is jointly financed by Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency and Dilafor AB, is to be presented on 29 September in PLoS Pathogens.

I have been a admin assistant at 3 different jobs now. First I feel like the title of admin assistant is just a fancy term for secretary in some jobs. My first experience was bad, I was bored all the time, the office manager who I was assisting didn't have enough work to give me and did it all her self so I didn't do much, when my boss wanted me to do telemarketing that was the end of that job. The second job was for a construction company and I was constantly running around, sitting on jobs, going to building departments, overseeing projects ect...I had to leave that job because certain reasons unfortunatley and set up with a temp agency. They hired me too a creative agency and I guess my title is admin assistant/studio assistant.
Now first off this is a growing company, just starting out, everything is done on computers, the phone barely rings everything is pretty self sufficeint. I do random word docs or spreadsheets when someone needs something typed, fed ex packages, and manage the studio inventory. I realize I need to be pro active and find work for myself but I honestly cannot think of anything I need to be doing. I have organized the adress book, and the files, made inventory spreadsheets, job sreadsheets cleaned the office ect.
Is it just me or there really nothing I should be doing because i feel guilty that i just sit at my desk and browse online all day but if no ones really giving me anything to do is there much for me to do?

Are you the only admin? Can you ask the other admins if you could help them? I would always be making myself available to assist others.
If that doesn't work I would discuss the situation with your HR Manager.

It could be that they don't have the workflow to keep you busy. I work at a hospital for a Director who has 200 employees under him. I work 20 hours a week overtime to keep everything going, plus I delegate many tedious tasks to other people looking for overtime.

If you are going to put anything on your resume, you should take some initiative and look for ways to be helpful, ask for more work and/or look for ways to save the company money.

This issue isn't limited to the UK. It's a major problem in the US as well. The problem is that washing your raw chicken can lead to cross-contamination of a bacteria called campylobacter, which is one of the most common culprits of in-home food poisonings in the US. When you wash raw chicken, it enables the bacteria to spread by clinging to your hands, clothes, and work surfaces around the kitchen. The vast majority of these food poisonings happen as isolated events, and not as part of a wider outbreak.
It sort of goes against conventional wisdom, and it's probably why so many people still do it. When we wash something, our impression is it becomes cleaner, and therefore safer to consume. Unfortunately, this isn't the case with raw meats. They can carry the campylobacter bacteria, and when washed, the bacteria can be spread around the kitchen, creating a larger likelihood of food poisoning.
This "no washing raw meat" advice is recommended by the US Department of Agriculture, and most food safety experts agree this is something that home cooks shouldn't be doing. The only way to kill bacteria on your poultry is to cook it until it reaches an internal temperature of at least 165 degrees.
In most cases, campylobacter poisoning results in abdominal pain, cramps, diarrhea, fever and vomiting, but it can be even more severe and lead to death on rare occasions. It can also lead to a number of other significant intestinal health problems.
Even mild cases of this food poisoning can be quite costly for a family's finances. Contracting this can keep a person home from work for several days losing those wages, and make them less productive long after that. A trip to the doctor's office (or emergency room in severe cases) is not out of the question, and both prescription and over-the-counter medications may need to be taken. Then there is the lost productivity cost for those who have to take care of the person who is sick. For all these reasons, those who cook poultry need to be more aware of the risks of washing raw meat, and immediately stop this practice.

I had gastric bypass and now I have horrible hanging skin everywhere.I have rashes under my belly, under arms and my breast are sagging with rashes, my breast also have caused back ache and marks on my shoulders. will medicare pay to remove this skin and will they pay to reduce my breast. I wear 44DD and do you know anyone in louisiana that will do these surgeries.
Hanging Skin After Gastric Bypass. Will Medicare Pay if Rashes Occur?
Doctor Answers 3
Will my insurance cover my bariatric plastic surgery after weight loss?
Plastic surgery and Gastric Bypass
Coverage for a tummy tuck and breast reduction on medicare will be definitely difficult to obtain. The problem is that medicare reimbursement is really poor and most plastic surgeon would probably not accept it. The second problem is that there is no pre-approval by medicare for surgery so the plastic surgeon would be taking a risk if they will pay and will not know until after the surgery is completed.
Learn more: http://stopobesityforlife.com
Medicare does cover Plastic Surgery after Gastric Bypass
As long ad all your symptoms are documented, the breast reduction can be completely covered by Medicare and the Tummy Tuck is usually at least partially covered. Your best bet is seeing a plastic surgeon specializing in post-Bariatric patients. I'm in Miami, but if you speak with your Gastric Bypass doctors they may be able to recommend someone in your area.

Note 2014:
Pros: Fast, great display, good sound, good wifi, pen function, build. IMO, best Android tablet to date.
Cons: Display is a power sucker more than the other devices- shortest battery life of the three devices for similar use, USB location (Why?)
iPad Air:
Pros: Fast, great display, good sound, very good wifi, build, battery life.
Cons: iTunes, restricted file design for users. The one good thing about iTunes is it took less than three hours to upgrade from my iPad 4 128GB back up. Android would have took longer, but prefer Android, none the less.
Dell V11 5130
Pros: Fast, great display, good sound, amazing wifi, build, battery life, runs all my favorite x86 apps smooth (Halo, Unreal 2004, Burnout Racing, etc). Office also is smooth and comes free with the 5130. The keyboard also has a battery, so up to 15 hours with similar use.
Cons: Only 38GB free for internal storage, but micro sd can be used for Steam games, Windows is not "exactly" tablet friendly yet, but getting closer. Added: Pen function is weak.
General points:
1. All three devices drain a lot quicker with 3D games, but the iPad air lasts two hours longer (at least).
2. The V11 has the best wifi range and stability of any device I have tested.
3. MAME is a CPU hungry app and plays smoother on the iPad Air. If folks understand how MAME is compiled, it is similar on all three devices, but should be smoother on the V11 with x86. The iPad Air is the first device of this size to ever play CPU hungry games like Dead or Alive Plus, Street Fighters EX2 and Soul Calibur smooth. The iPad 4 was about 15% slower than the Note 2014, but the iPad air is 30% faster than then Note 2014. Amazing margin swing from the iPad 4 to the iPad Air. The V11 is faster than the Note 2014, but not as fast as the iPad Air for MAME .139. Did not expect this at all.
All three are amazing devices and have strengths. Must admit I wish the iPad Air was an Android device and had a micro sd slot and micro USB. THAT would be the greatest device, IMO ever. If I could only choose one device as a tablet only, the Note 2014 would be my choice. Reasons being I prefer the drag and drop of Android, no iTunes and the Note 2014 is a more versatile device overall. The V11 is GREAT with the keyboard, but lacking as far as being a tablet only.


text: Posted November 30, 2013 · Report post Hey guys, I'm a 20 year old male. My mother has had terrible hormonal acne for years -- but my skin was COMPLETELY clear until this January. Shortly after New Year's I had a huuuuuge breakout for the first time in my life. My cheeks were COVERED. I was very stressed at the time and my skin became incredibly dry as it was winter. Proactiv eventually cleared it up after a few months, to a considerable extent, but left me with terrible hyperpigmentation. By summer my skin was glowing and clear again -- I had three chemical peels which worked wonders for the pigmentation. Second week of september, 9 months after the first breakout, I got another. It's been nearly 3 months and it hasn't let up much. It's better than it was before, but I think I need an intervention. I've tried topical retinol, use a salicylic cleanser and toner, aloe based moisturizer, I eat well, avoid sweets, never consume dairy, drink over 3 liters of water per day. Benzoyl peroxide dries my skin out and only works to a certain degree. I'm not covered by insurance currently and seeing a dermatologist might not be an option till January, but I can see my general physician and request a specific antibiotic for a decent price. I've been doing a lot of research on various antibiotics and from what I've seen, Bactrim seems to have fast-acting, "miraculous" results. What are your experiences with antibiotics? If you've taken Bactrim, let me know how it worked for you. Thank you! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MaldenFIRE STATION GROUP MEETS - The Fire Station Building Committee will meet at 4:30 p.m. Thursday in the conference room in the mayor's office at City Hall. The committee is looking to identify locations for a new fire station to protect the east side of the city. The Maplewood Fire Station was forced to close last April after mold, rot, and other health concerns were found in the building. Since then, Engine 2 has been operating from a station at Overlook Ridge, off Route 1, that is shared with Revere. - Kathy McCabe
MedfordELECTION TO CLOSE SCHOOLS - It's back to school on Wednesday for Medford public school students. Start times are 7:40 a.m. for the high school, 8 a.m. for middle school, and 8:40 a.m. for elementary schools. Students will get the day off Tuesday, Sept. 13, when the city holds its preliminary election because voting is conducted at several city schools. The polls will be open from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. The mayor's race will be the only contest on the ballot. Mayor Michael J. McGlynn is facing a primary challenge from residents John M. Byers and Anthony D'Antonio. Schools will reopen on Sept. 14, when kindergartners report for their first day of school.
- Kathy McCabe
MelroseLIBRARY REOPENS ON WEEKENDS - After being closed Saturdays and Sundays during the summer, the Melrose Public Library will be open again on weekends beginning this Saturday. The library's Saturday hours are 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Sunday's hours are 2 to 5 p.m. Weekday hours are 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. - Kathy McCabe
Reading, StonehamWATER PROJECT TO BEGIN - The Massachusetts Water Resources Authority has hired Albanese D & S Inc. of Dracut to install a new water main. The pipeline will be 36 inches in diameter and will run 2,200 linear feet, starting at South Street and continuing under Route 128 along Main Street to the intersection of North Street in Stoneham. The new pipeline will connect Reading's water system to Stoneham's, providing backup water service to Reading in case of an emergency. Most of the work will be performed between 9 p.m. and 5 a.m., though some daytime work may occur between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m. Traffic detours, signs, and police details will be in place to help motorists safely navigate around the construction site. During construction, access for all local residences and businesses will be maintained. The project is expected to be completed by December 2012. - Brenda J. Buote
RevereLAUNDROMAT DENIED - The City Council last Monday rejected a special permit application by Michael Pho to convert a building formerly housing a social club at 672 Winthrop Ave. into a laundromat. Councilors cited concerns that the laundromat would be detrimental to the neighborhood because it would operate many more hours than the social club and would potentially exacerbate the parking shortage in that area, according to city clerk Ashley Melnik.
- John Laidler
SomervilleTREE SCULPTURE FALLS - Tropical Storm Irene took down a few big trees in Somerville, including one tree made of steel. Artist David Tonnesen's ornamental sculpture in Union Square was blown over in the high winds, Somerville Arts Council director Greg Jenkins said in an e-mail. Tonnesen, who works out of a studio in Somerville's Brickbottom, noted the irony: A storm created the need for his sculpture, and a storm took it away. The steel tree was made for the eat restaurant more than a decade ago, he said, after a living tree fell victim to the April Fools' Day snowstorm of 1997. The idea was for vines to grow up and fill in the spaces. It succeeded so well that Tonnesen would watch people walk by the sculpture and not even notice. "Most of my public art is hurricane-tested,'' Tonnesen said. His 45-foot fish on the Legal Sea Foods headquarters on the Boston waterfront survived Irene, as did a sculpture on the Cape.
- Danielle Dreilinger
StonehamSAGARINO STEPS IN - Maria Sagarino is serving as Stoneham's acting town clerk after John D. Hanright's death. Hanright suffered a fatal heart attack at Brigham & Women's Hospital in Boston on July 11. Hanright, 69, was elected town clerk in 1998 after serving on the Board of Assessors since 1975. He had been hospitalized June 30 with pneumonia. His death "has left such a hole in the office,'' said Michelle Meagher, who works in the town clerk's office. "John was so vibrant and so full of fun.'' Sagarino, who has worked as an assistant town clerk since 2009, is expected to serve the remainder of Hanright's term, which expires next spring, and run for the position in April. - Brenda J. Buote
WakefieldANTIVIOLENCE BENEFIT - The Senior Tones, a local doo-wop singing group, will perform Sept. 15 at a dinner concert benefiting Wakefield Alliance Against Violence. The nonprofit works to end bullying and domestic violence. Proceeds from the event will go toward educational programs it sponsors in local schools on bullying and teen dating violence. Bob Eldridge, a founding member and the current president of the alliance, is a member of Senior Tones, which sings songs from the 1950s and '60s. Tickets to the event are $30 and include hors d'oeuvres, a dinner buffet, and the concert. The cash bar opens at 6 p.m., with dinner at 7 and the show at 8. For tickets or more information, call Eldridge at 781-246-1825.
- John Laidler
WinchesterWIDENING THE RIVER - The town has started work on a flood mitigation program, a project that requires widening the Aberjona River to the east (toward the Mystic Valley Parkway) between Waterfield and Manchester roads, and dredging the river bottom between Manchester Road and Bacon Street. During the project's first phase, parking along the western side of Mystic Valley Parkway between Waterfield and Manchester roads will be banned and the eastern half of the Aberjona parking lot will be closed, as will portions of the sidewalk on the west side of the parkway. In addition, the access road between the Aberjona parking lot and Ginn Field will be closed for the duration of the project; all access to the Ginn playing fields will be from Bacon Street. For more information, visit www.winchester.us. - Brenda J. Buote
WinthropFERRY PHOTO CONTEST - The Winthrop Chamber of Commerce and E.B. Newton Cultural Center are teaming up to offer a Photo The Ferry 2011 contest. Amateur photographers are invited to submit digital photos of views taken from the Winthrop ferry or of the boat, called the Anna. Organizers note that the deck of the Anna affords scenic views of the town's coastline, Snake Island, the Harbor Islands, Winthrop's developing pier district, and Boston Harbor. A panel of media professionals will judge submissions. Winning photographs will be considered for use on promotional materials for the ferry. Photos from the contest will be exhibited at the cultural center, which the town is developing on the first floor of the historic former E.B. Newton School. Participants should submit one or two color photographs in the form of jpeg files by Sept. 12 to email@example.com. - John Laidler
WoburnHISTORIC TOUR SEPT. 18 - The Woburn Historical Society is inviting the public to its trolley tour on Sept. 18. The two-hour tour will make four stops at points of interest: at Horn Pond, where city engineer Jay Corey will provide a tour of Woburn's historic original pumping station; at the new Goodyear School, where a costumed reenactor of Charles Goodyear, a Woburn resident who invented vulcanized rubber, will provide a tour of the building; at Calvary Cemetery, where participants will meet costumed reenactors at gravesites of Civil War soldiers and other prominent Woburn citizens; and at the public library, which will have a special exhibit of Civil War artifacts from its collection, including diaries and souvenirs of two Woburn residents who served in the war. This year marks the 150th anniversary of the start of the Civil War. There will be two tours, one leaving at 11:30 a.m. and the other at 2 p.m. both starting at the library, 45 Pleasant St. For more information, including how to obtain tickets, go to www.woburnhistoricalsociety.com. - John Laidler
BoxfordWEST NILE CONTROLLED - Subsequent testing was clear after the Massachusetts Department of Public Health announced that mosquitoes infected with the West Nile virus were found in town Aug. 3. This was the only sample to test positive in Boxford this year. Residents are still advised to reschedule outdoor activities to daylight hours when mosquitoes are less prevalent. Wearing insect repellents, long pants, and long-sleeved shirts are urged to prevent mosquito bites. Officials also recommend that residents drain standing water from places around their homes where mosquitoes can lay eggs. - David Cogger
MethuenWALK FOR ANIMALS - The MSPCA Walk for Animals will take place next Sunday in three locations to benefit the organization's shelters, including Nevins Farm. The local walk will be held beginning at 11 a.m. at Spencer-Peirce-Little-Farm, 5 Little's Lane in Newbury. Walkers and their dogs are welcome. Participants are encouraged to register early in order to collect donations and sponsorships from friends, family, and fellow animal lovers. On-site activities will include the 1-mile walk, dog agility demonstrations, canine spa treatments, kids' corner activities, ask the vet sessions, food, live music, raffles, and prizes. For more information or to download a registration form, visit www.mspca.org or call 978-687-7453.
- Karen Sackowitz
NewburyportMOSQUITOES TEST POSITIVE - The Massachusetts Department of Public Health announced on Monday that the West Nile virus has been detected in a single mosquito pool collected in Newburyport. It is the first positive for the virus this year. Between Jan. 1 and Aug. 26, 175 mosquito pools statewide have tested positive for West Nile. No human cases of the virus have been reported in Massachusetts this season. The city health department advises residents to avoid outdoor activities from dusk to dawn and to use insect repellent and wear long sleeves, pants, and socks when outside. - Brenda J. Buote
WenhamGORDON REPORTS INCREASE IN STUDENTS - Gordon College has reported that the incoming class of freshmen and transfer students is a record 526. The college's previous largest group of incoming students was 510 in 2001. Last year's freshman class was 410. Dan Lymann, the school's executive vice president, attributed the uptick to better communicating the value of a Gordon education. Gordon's total student population is 1,475.

Deviating from the small-and-sporty tendency of its entry-level luxury peers, the 2014 Lexus ES 350 instead emphasizes the roomy-and-comfortable. Cars.com reviewer Joe Bruzek notes that the sedan's spaciousness comes from its switch to the Toyota Avalon platform from the Camry, and the result is legroom your backseat passengers just won't get with competitors. Front-seat comfort and interior material quality were debatable for our editors, and the lack of optional all-wheel drive is unfortunate, but Bruzek says under normal driving conditions, the ES 350's muscular 268-horsepower V-6 won't disappoint.

Communication - Managerial Tool
Communication entails putting information across to all beings (humans/animals, plants) by means of a wide range of signs and/or technical,biological, psychological and social devices whereas management is the art of achieving the company's goals by the subordinates. Thus, communication becomes an important part of the management functions. The relation between communication and management is bidirectional and its main role is to influence the employees' behaviour.

JV Lady "Cats" Claw Out a Win, Varsity Has Bad "Knight"Featured Stories, Sports January 14, 2014
On Friday night, the Gilmer High School junior varsity and varsity Lady Bobcats basketball teams traveled to Woodstock to face the River Ridge Lady Knights for the first time this year. It proved to be a tough night for all of the GHS teams, but the JV girls helped avoid a sweep by winning 42-29. The varsity fell 54-42.The JV squad looked strong in the win and continued a good season. Macy Chastain led the scoring with 13 points, followed by Sarah Aaron with seven and Haley Higingbotham with six.
Things didn't go as well for the Varsity girls, who at times were simply outhustled.
River Ridge controlled the opening tip and used the size of the center to the Lady Knights' advantage. Standing a good four inches or more over Gilmer's girls, she grabbed rebounds and scored regardless of how well the Lady "Cat" defenders played her.
A steal by Gilmer led to a Sarah Lambert basket to open the scoring for the Gilmer. Bailey Charles hit a runner soon after to tie the game at 4-4. The Lady Knights began to heat up and started to pull away. Charles and Lambert each hit a free throw to make the score 12-6 at the close of the first quarter.
Things started to get out of hand in the second quarter as River Ridge went up 24-9. A three-pointer by Hannah Jones stopped the bleeding and sparked a 13-3 run by the Lady "Cats" that was fueled by another Jones three-pointer.
The GHS defense picked up the intensity, causing multiple turnovers late in the quarter, leading to a five point, 27-22, deficit at the half.
Another Lady "Cat" steal followed by a Charles basket was how the third quarter started. This is as close as it would get for Gilmer though as the girls failed to capitalize on many opportunities on the next few possessions. Jenna Parks managed to put four more points on the board, but Gilmer still trailed 35-28 after three.
Britton Farlow got in on the scoring in the fourth quarter while Charles and Lambert also chipped in. The Lady Knights' point guard caught fire and answered every basket Gilmer scored. The Lady "Cats" looked like the better team on paper, but turnovers proved deadly in this one. When the final horn sounded, the Lady "Cats" fell 54-42.
Jones led Gilmer with 14 points, Charles followed with 12, and Lambert finished with seven. The Lady "Cats" will travel to Pickens County to take on Sarah Smith and the Dragonettes on Tuesday night at 6:00 PM.

Redknapp quizzed as FA investigation continues
Portsmouth manager Harry Redknapp has been quizzed by the Football Association as part of an ongoing investigation into allegations of insider betting.
Chairman Milan Mandaric and chief executive Peter Storrie have also answered the FA's questions.
The FA investigation centres around bets made on Redknapp's return to Fratton Park from Southampton.
'We have all been up there to see them at the FA over this and we have given them everything they have asked for,' Redknapp told the News of the World. 'They even showed me a list of names of certain people who had placed bets and asked me about them.
'But I don't know anything about it. I have done nothing wrong. I didn't have a bet and that's an end to it.
'But unfortunately this just keeps dragging on and, to be honest, I could do without it. I actually think Milan has told the FA now that enough is enough.'
Mandaric said: 'All this stuff is absolute rubbish. It is all speculation and I am trying to stay above it all. I have had a lot of discussions with Harry about this and he has nothing to do with any of it.
'How the hell can he tell anyone to go and bet - the final decision was only made 20 minutes before the press conference.'
FA spokesman Andrin Cooper confirmed: 'There is an investigation into allegations of insider betting in this case and it is ongoing.'<

The FBO industry should expect a flat market this year with spotty increases in fuel sales, according to the results of an annual FBO industry survey conducted by John Enticknap and Ron Jackson, principals of the Aviation Business Strategies Group (ABSG). Their findings, released today at the NBAA Schedulers and Dispatchers Conference in New Orleans, predict that approximately half the marketplace will see a small increase in fuel volume.
"Although there is increased optimism for 2014, nearly half of the FBOs surveyed did not see an increase in business during 2013," said Enticknap. "Last year we said any FBO attaining a 6-percent increase in fuel sales would [be] a star," he noted, adding that more than 20 percent of those surveyed reached this target. "For 2014, we're raising this high-water mark to 8 percent."
Nearly half of the companies polled in this most recent survey indicated they believe the U.S economy is still not headed in the right direction. "Overall, there is a sense of status quo for 2014, with a majority of those surveyed predicting at least a break-even marketplace," said Jackson. "On the positive side, more than 40 percent predict an increase in fuel sales volume, with 20 percent anticipating an increase of more than 5 percent."

IT'S your responsibility.
That's what an elderly couple near Winchester were told after a tree in their back garden was removed without notice, smashing their green house and newly-decorated garden, and leaving them with the £1,000 bill.
The 'offending' tree, which sat at the bottom of John and Gillian Chapman's back garden in Sutton Scotney, was cut down in February by Hampshire County Council after complaints from neighbours during high winds.
The broken branches were left strewn across their garden shed, green house and plum tree – all of which have been damaged.
The mess, which has been left for over a month, is obstructing a large area of Oxford Road property's back garden, and Mrs Chapman said she received no prior warning from the council.
"I was speaking to my next door neighbour and she said 'Jill, I think they are out there cutting your tree down'," she said.
"I didn't think they could be because it was so windy. When I saw the devastation in the morning I was horrified.
"Hampshire County Council was going to charge us £1,000 for the call out."
It was not until Itchen Valley County Councillor Jackie Porter stepped in that HCC waived the fee.
However, the retired osteopaths have since been told because the tree belongs to them, it is their responsibility to clean up the aftermath, and the county council are refusing to help.
Mrs Chapman, 73, said: "We have booked in for a tree surgeon to come and clean it up on April 17. That is the earliest he could come because he is inundated with work at the moment because of all this terrible weather.
"He has lived in Sutton Scotney since he was a boy so said he would help us."
Even at the reduced rate the couple will still have to fork out £550 to see their garden back to tip top condition.
Jackie Porter said she thinks the council made a hasty decision to cut back the tree.
"The least they could do is come and clean up the mess," she said.
"Mr and Mrs Chapman were already coping with a lot that weekend – the water was lapping at their front door. They were lucky their chickens weren't killed by the branches as they were cut down, but their greenhouse was smashed.
"The County has an efficient tree team that could do this job in hours."
Hampshire County Council's executive member for Economy, Transport and Environment, Cllr Sean Woodward, said the council's highways team was alerted to the tree dangerously swaying in the wind after calls to police from concerned neighbours.
He said: "Having unsuccessfully tried to contact the property owner, and even though the tree was on private property, a decision was made to put public safety first.
"As this matter concerned a tree on private property, it really is a matter for the owner's insurance, and the council has offered to fully support them in any insurance claim by providing evidence of the situation.
"I have also asked officers to consider if there is anything further that we can reasonably do to support removal of the remainder of the tree."

I haven't written a review for a few years (probably because I haven't found any product outstanding enough to merit one), but GA Maestro has perked me up and made me want to sing its praises. I'm also hoping this will be particularly helpful to those of us who have been mourning the demise of what was a HG foundation to many on MUA: Estee Lauder Enlighten. (Just to clarify, I had never used an EL foundation before Enlighten and have never used one since, but Enlighten was a truly unique formula). I have spent both years and a small fortune since it was discontinued trying to find a replacement. Since Estee Lauder bought out so many other brands, I figured it was only a matter of time before they brought back the formulation (or even a close facsimile) in one of their other lines or under a different name. So I have relentlessly tried out every single foundation, TM and BB Cream that has been released, always keeping my fingers crossed that SOMETHING would at least strike a chord of similarity. I kept my box with Enlighten's ingredients and have compared them to every new product, to no avail.
Let me be clear: Maestro is in no way a dupe or substitute for Enlighten. But to those who adored one very special quality about that particular formula, I do think it's worth a test drive. From the minute I applied the first drop of Maestro, its liquidity felt similar to the one outstanding thing I loved about my old foundation - and what I have been trying to duplicate - a light, weightless feeling that still offered superb coverage. To me, this is the thing most worth mentioning about Maestro. It goes on watery, yet still magically seems to cover more imperfections than does every one of my heavier foundations. I find it works on both the dry and oily parts of my combination skin, doesn't catch on dry patches and wears perfectly throughout the day. Doesn't oxidize and seems to maybe look even better by the end of the day than it did when it first went on. The liquid texture is what keeps it from sliding into fine lines, so it looks much less aging than a heavier, creamy formula. And it has a perfect finish: dewy, not greasy. It feels clean and almost like nothing on the skin. Works to cover up pores to some degree as well.
I do have two small issues: I find the dropper messy to deal with and think it would have been better packaged in a pump (even with the liquid texture, this could have worked fine) or in a squeeze tube with a pointed tip. And the color selection is a bit vexing: the intensity of 5.5 would be my perfect match, but I need a more yellow undertone. There is no 6.0, so I had to go to 6.5, which is actually a perfect yellow undertone, but is just a little too dark. Wonder what happened to 6.0? And finally: only one thing almost stopped me from even testing Maestro: I am acne-prone and generally do not do well with the ingredient cyclohexasiloxane, especially when it is almost first in the list. But I have not broken out from this and have been wearing it for months now. My theory is that its thin texture is what makes it easier for my skin to tolerate. It is not nearly as occlusive as the other formulas I had difficulties with in the past, so perhaps the liquid formula is light enough to not clog pores.
In any event, this is (in my opinion) one of the actual innovative foundations that has been released in quite some time. So for that reason alone, it is probably worth a try. And to my fellow MUA'ers who have been on a futile search for an Enlighten replacement, I hope this helps fill the void just a little bit:) continued >>

F1 Fanatic - DominikWilde
I predict that they'll have Marc Gene and Andrea Bertolini as the main drivers with most, if not all of the AF Corse guys moving over. Definitely the Factory drivers (Fisichella, Bruni, Kobayashi, Beretta). Maybe Fabrizio Giovannardi too, after all, he is one of the company's test drivers.
I'd like to see Badoer get the nod too. He develops road cars for them now. I doubt he'll get a drive though.
If this does come off, it will be interesting to see who they hire because Ferrari already has more than enough drivers to fill at least two cars so I wonder whether they'll hire any drivers from other places.
I think third cars should be allowed, but only to give people experience. So perhaps a team runs a third car for young drivers but that car scores no WCC points.
That or bring back testing but limit/ban running for race drivers

ATI DRIVERS WORK NOW! Kernel 2.6.11
EDIT: I wrote this months ago. I'm happy for those people that did get it working. Unfortunatly because linux rapidly changes from month to month so do the installation procedures for various things. I have not yet even tried to install the ATI drivers on the newest Fedora for I am still running the version when I wrote this how-to. I will fully update my install and find the best possible way to install ATI drivers (as bad as they still may be Under linux) and I will then post a new how-to.
I have done it people. I have Gotton ATI's newest drivers to work on the newest update of fedora core 3. I now can use cedega to play games that were once choopy and horrible but are now just like playing them on windows. If you want to find out what I did read on.
1) Log on as root
2) Right-Click on this link and save link as ATI'S WEBSITE
3) Save it to roots home directory and name it something easy to remember like ati.rpm
4) Open a terminal, navigate to where you saved it, and type "rpm -Uvh --force ati.rpm" It will try to force, then it will fail.
5) Next thing you need to do is in the same terminal type "yum install gcc" (If you don't know how to setup yum head over to fedorafaq.com or just post in this thread asking)
6) Once that is installed, do what step 4 says then continue here. You then need to go download 2 patches from This Website. Again right click and save link as.
7) Then in the terminal type "cd /lib/modules/fglrx/build_mod/"
8) Then type "patch -p0 </path to patch file/p1.patch" (if spelled coorectly it should take about 3 seconds for each patch)
9) Then type "patch -p0 </path to patch file/p2.patch"
10) Then type "sh make.sh"
11) When finished at the bottom of the output it will ask you to navagte to a different spot and run "sh make_install.sh"
12) When that is finished type "fglrxconfig" and choose all the default options.
13) Guess what guys and gals, restart the computer, log in, open up a terminal and run "glxgears" If your over all fps is over 2000 (which it should be) you have successfully installed the newest, and so far the best ati drivers I have seen.
14) Now for the Cedega part. Head over to Trans-Gaming, sign up, download point 2 play, have point 2 play download the recent cedega version and microsoft fonts. You're Done.
The games I have had success with so far is Warcraft III Reign of Chaos and Half-Life 2. Just make sure you run your game in a window of 1024x768 and resize your desktop to that window size also an you're good.
If you want to use cedega to play games I would definatly recommend ubuntu over fc3 bcause for some reason it rarely crashes and games run smoother than I had them running in fc3.
Good luck!
Any questions just post here and i'll do my best to answer them. This fix may work for other distros with yum but I have not tried any others except Fedora Core 3 fully yum updated from the livna libraries.
Have you submitted this as an LQ tutorial? There is a submission button in the tutorials page.
Just posted there under hadware help. Totally didn't realize that there was a tutorial section. Thanks. Only reason I did it in the forum in the first place though is so people could ask questions.
Worked flawlessly for me, tux racer (i only got it for testing FPS!!) runs properly now.
I had to make the make files executable first with chmod, if you're submittign as a tutorial might ant to add that
Thats what I was hoping for. Someone to get some use out of it. If you use the "sh" command you shouldn't have to chmod anything. If you do the ./filename.sh then you would have to make executable. If you used the "sh" command and you still had to make them executable i'll add that to the tutorial. Thanks.
ATI FireGL 8800 with Fedora core 3
Yesterday, i've installed fedora core 3 on may machine equipped with a FireGL 8800 board.
I've downloaded the ATI driver from ati's website for X.ORG 6.8 (fglrx_6_8_0-8.12.10-1.i386.rpm), attenpting to install it following the step-by-step procedure found on this thread (by antidelldude, and thx!). I start the driver installation by typing rpm -Uvh --force ati.rpm and the console say failed dependencies and the installation exit. At the step that tells to cd to /lib/modules/fglrx/build_mod/ the console say missing file or directory (or something like that)... i've verified manually by nautilus if the fglrx directory exist, but he is really missing! I can't install the patches found on "http://ati.cchtml.com/show_bug.cgi?id=110"....
What's wrong??? (I'm almost new to linux and appreciate help!)
Thx in advance!
(scuse my bad english!)
ATI Drivers
Hi antidelldude--
There are so many how to's with the ati drivers and none of them have worked for me. This is what I get as glxgears output with the "radeon" driver. Of course no 3d, which stinks. I'm using Fedora Core 3. What are your thoughts? I just don't want to screw up what works for everything else. I'm totally nervous that I wouln't be able to undo any potential mess??? Also, I have a fully updated complete FC3 install with nothing installed from livna. What do you mean by updated with livna??
2485 frames in 5.0 seconds = 497.000 FPS
2412 frames in 5.0 seconds = 482.400 FPS
2846 frames in 5.0 seconds = 569.200 FPS
2493 frames in 5.0 seconds = 498.600 FPS
2837 frames in 5.0 seconds = 567.400 FPS
2841 frames in 5.0 seconds = 568.200 FPS
11447 frames in 5.0 seconds = 2289.400 FPS
41047 frames in 5.0 seconds = 8209.400 FPS
41515 frames in 5.0 seconds = 8303.000 FPS
36486 frames in 5.0 seconds = 7297.200 FPS
41625 frames in 5.0 seconds = 8325.000 FPS
41792 frames in 5.0 seconds = 8358.400 FPS
36968 frames in 5.0 seconds = 7393.600 FPS
41753 frames in 5.0 seconds = 8350.600 FPS
Basically that over 8000 fps you are getting means there should be 3d. To make sure of this what does this command return.
glxinfo | grep direct
It should return Direct Rendering : yes
And what I mean by livna is the server that yum accesses when it updates your computer. If you updated the server with up2date i can see if you're running into problems or if you used other files from other servers. Let me know what happens. Try tux racer and if it is playable. It comes with fc3 pre-installed. But if you have tried various other posts and have failed with those you may have some vacant files sitting around on your computer that will need to be taken care of.
does anybody will reply me??
hi, i've posted a previous message in this thread... please help me!!
Sorry bout that dude. I was never e-mailed about your post. Anyways, The only reason it would say failed dependencies would be that the GCC compiler was not installed correctly or a newer version is needed.
Try this:
Open up a terminal and type
yum install gcc
It should automatically process all dependencies for the compiler and ofcoarse the compiler itself. I hope that is the neded software for the ATI drivers to compile.
This also is mentioned in my guide.
4) Open a terminal, navigate to where you saved it, and type "rpm -Uvh --force ati.rpm" It will try to force, then it will fail.
5) Next thing you need to do is in the same terminal type "yum install gcc" (If you don't know how to setup yum head over to fedorafaq.com or just post in this thread asking)
thanks!!! it works!
Thank you! i've installed the missing libraries, and now it works fine!
hey maybe i made a big mistake, but the rpm didnt fail, I think it may be because i already had gcc installed (i compile a whole ton of stuff). My question is if i can roll back the rpm install or something. Also, the patches dont install even though im sure i spelled it right (the terminal just freezes and i gotta do ctrl-c).
Sure looks like you had gcc already installed. As for the patches. Pay close attention. When the terminal freezes like that it means that something was spelled wrong. Thats what happened to me.
Sorry man, but i dont think it works for me, what kernel are you using, i got 2.6.11-1.27smp. I think i spelled everything right, and it still just freezes up heres my code (i saved it in my home dir):
Installed: gcc.i386 0:3.4.3-22.fc3
I have a ati mobile 7500 graphics card in my IBM t42 and I can't get drivers to ever work for it. Any suggestions would be welcomed although I think I'm beat for now.

I had juvederm injected into my lips about 18months ago, and a year before that i had restylane injected into them. However, about 6 months ago i noticed that when i smile, my top lip isnt a steady line, its almost 'wavey' in shape. The top lip feels a tiny bit lumpy and im not entirely sure why its still like this 18 months on. is this normal?
I Had Juvederm Injections and Now my Lip is Distorted?

Distorted Lip after Juvederm 18 months ago?
You may have some lumps and bumps in your lips from product that was injected unevenly. You may want to have some Vitrase injected to dissolve the uneven spots and then you can start over fresh if you desire. Juvederm is a great product but it has to be injected evenly to have a nice outcome.
Juvederm Injections to Lips
While it would be uncommon to have Juvederm or Restylane still present in the injection site at this time you may have developed some scar tissue or swelling around the area of injection which has produced this result. A consultation with an experienced injector will probably answer those questions upon a direct examination. Best regards!

Juvederm and Restylane filler for lips
You should be assessed by a dermatologist or plastic surgeon who can determine if the problem is filler or if something else is happening. If some Juvederm or Restylane is still left, it can be dissolved or if you would like lip enhancement, more filler can be added.

I Had Juvederm Injections and Now my Lip is Distorted?
It would be very unusual to have any remaining filler 18 months after a lip injection. However, it is possible. Your best bet would be to seek out an experienced injector for an in-person consultation. Your options include hyaluronidase treatments to dissolve any remaining product and improve your lip contour or a small amount of additional filler to provide better symmetry and lip shape. I hope this information is helpful.

Restylane and Juvederm Lip Fillers
Restylane and Juvederm are both hyaluronic acids or HA's. HA's will be resorbed by this time and any distortion may have been present before as well as the lump. Alternatively they could be something new and unrelated to the filler. You should see a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon or Dermatologist to be evaluated.
It is difficult to tell what is going on with your Restylane and Juvaderm treatment.
I would recommend that you seek consultation with a well-respected cosmetic dermatologist or plastic surgeon for ideas on how best to treat your lips.
Lip distortion from fillers
Well, this is a long time for fillers to last, but they can last longer in the lips. Your best idea is going to be to go in and see a physician. Usually it's pretty easy for me to evaluate a patient in person and determine if there is filler left in there, or if something else is going on. If there is filler there, or maybe some pockets of various filler left, those can be dissolved with a very small amount of hyaluronidase. But an in-person consultation is going to be your best bet to determine what's going on.

Meditació for strings orchestra
Robert de la Riba (1912 - 1999)
Meditació seems to owe its title to the contemplative atmosphere that the composer gives this score, written for strings.
Its poetic mood is built up by music written legato, manifested by means of the distinct articulations.
Written in E minor, the alterations, rather than having any modulating intentions, are treated as an element for enriching the instrumental colour.

Follow Your Leaders
January is a big month for human resources. New positions have been approved, reviews are done, and raises finalized. At many companies, the start of the year is associated with mass resignations--often equated to employee resolutions to pursue that dream job, build homes in Africa, or return to school.
Excuses start flowing when a good employee leaves: He wanted more money, his colleague got promoted and he didn't, she didn't like the commute. Truth of the matter, experts say, is that good employees rarely leave because of pay or title--even if that's what they end up complaining about in their exit interviews. Good workers often leave because of bad managers; it doesn't matter what an employee thinks about a company as a whole if his individual boss stinks.
Given the influence managers have on employee satisfaction and turnover rates, it's surprising how few companies utilize upward reviews. And if a company does assess a manager's leadership skills, they usually only do it within the manager's immediate department--even though her relationships with outside departments (like the lab or radiology) may define her work. The 360 review process, where feedback comes from colleagues, other managers, and, usually, direct reports, can help organizations ferret out bad leaders, uncover inefficiencies, and provide leadership development.
Of course, an upward or 360 review process doesn't always guarantee realistic insight into management ability. Some companies allow managers to hand-pick who completes their reviews, meaning direct reports only have the opportunity to weigh in if their managers request it. Other companies make review completion optional, so their direct reports aren't required to actually submit their feedback, making the review seem less important than the traditional top-down review.
Sometimes it's the review form itself that's faulty. I'm happy to say my company uses the 360 process, but the online review tool is unwieldy: 25 or so questions, each with multiple parts, rating employees on a scale of 1 to 5. If you answer a question at either end of the extreme--(1) my manager is terrible or (5) he's off the charts good--you get five follow-up questions digging into your first answer. Impatient reviewers figure out early that if they want to finish the review this decade, they better give indifferent scores (i.e., threes) for each question.
Management literature is filled with fodder about what makes a good leader, but how do you test that your managers actually have those traits? It's surprising how many senior leaders don't know their organization is filled with terrible managers. You may think your CFO is great--she meets all her goals, delivers on your every whim--but how is she at managing people? Are the 15 people in her department on the brink of resignation?
I've written a lot about the importance of weeding out underperformers. If it's true that managers really do make or break employee happiness (I believe they do) then weeding out weak managers is just as important. Upward reviews and 360 feedback, although imperfect, are a good start in identifying the weak (and the exceptional). If you already utilize some type of bottom-up review process, great, but be sure it's effective, useful, and used.

Dominion Stage Opens SPRING AWAKENING, 10/5
Dominion Stage kicks off its 2012/2013 season with "Spring Awakening", winner of eight 2007 Tony Awards, including Best Musical. The musical follows a group of 19th century German students on their journey as they navigate the insecurities and the anxieties of entering young adulthood.
The 'song vs. story world' musical theater experience is based on Frank Wedekind's controversial 1891 play, "Spring's Awakening" and boasts an explosive 'indie-rock', and 'folk-infused' score by Grammy Award winner Duncan Sheik, with lyrics and book by Steven Sater. The musical examines and explores adolescent rebellion, the celebration of youth, and the universal issues of coming-of-age sexuality, teen pregnancy, child abuse and suicide. (The dramatic work was so daring in its depiction of teenage self-discovery and coming-of-age, that it was often banned and censored from the stage and did not receive its first English performance until 1917.) Directed by local performer/director William D. Parker, the creative team also includes
J. Michael d'Haviland as Music Director, Amanda Layton-Whiteman, as Choreographer, and Stage Manager Joan A.S. Lada. Dominion Stage is the first all-volunteer community theatre organization to produce "Spring Awakening" in the DC Metro area. This production is recommended for ages 16 and older. Full cast and artistic bios, and promotional photo and video links will be available online at www.DominionStage.org.
"Spring Awakening" will run Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings starting Friday, October 5 through Saturday, October 20, 2012. Curtain is 8 p.m. All performances will be held at the Gunston Arts Center - Theater One, located at 2700 S. Lang Street in Arlington. Seating is General Admission; discounted tickets are available online for pre-purchase at www.DominionStage.org. Group discount information is available by calling (571) 377-4697 or emailing email@example.com.

Case head marks from AR bolt

One thing you need to be aware of is that you should sort your brass according to head stamp. While these appear to be all WCC, some are NATO marked and some are just date stamped. Internal case volumes may vary between dates and manufacturers
You can check the weight of the case and see if there is any difference between the NATO marked and just the date marked cases. If there is, the volume may be smaller on the NATO brass.
The third case from the left of your second pic looks like a cupped firing pin indentation which would be indicative of high pressure. It is difficult to tell with a pic. Have you looked at them under magnification?
If this is happening with new factory ammo it's probably an anomaly with the new bolt and may go away after a few hundred rounds.

My biggest concern was my wobbly roller mounted on the transom. To remedy this I bolted 4×4 timbers between the underside of the roller mount plate and the old vertical-roller base brackets that were affixed to the back of the transom.
This was a stroke of genius because I would have had to remove or otherwise wrap up those exterior-mounted roller bases, because they would be a super-snag when setting the net. My plan worked perfectly, and came together quite well for a hacker such as me. I also slapped on the last coat of gelcoat on my new bin boards, and finally got around to fixing the headlight I disassembled two months prior.
At this point, my boat was as ready to fish as she was going to be. Now all she needed was a net and she was ready to roll.
This is where the week's work begins to payoff. My daughter Madeline and her friend Yuki were coming along on the fishing trip to serve as devoted crew members. In addition, Bruce, the girls' former teacher and experienced Satisfaction crew member from sockeye openings gone by, was coming along as well. This was super great because in addition to a good hand on deck, he would provide some necessary adult supervision over the rest of my crew.
At 6 p.m. the girls helped me pull my net from under its tarp out in the field and into my truck. They disappeared with Maureen for a few hours in the evening to watch a play with a few of their friends, and I stayed home and put our cute little Lucy to bed. The gang came back around 9 p.m., and Madeline, Yuki, and I were down on the boat by 9:30.
We were blessed with rain, so I opted to start out by loading and cleaning the boat with hopes the rain would stop. Of course that wasn't in the cards, so we were going to have to pull our hoods up and go to work. I ran the boat around to the net loading dock, and the girls tossed me the end of the net from the dock. They helped guide the net out of the truck as the boat pulled it off the dock, through the water, and wound it up tightly on the net reel.
All was well and good until the levelwind blew a hydraulic hose. What a mess — oil was spread all over the deck. I cleaned it all up right away and resumed reeling the net aboard without the use of the levelwind, which was really no big deal since that is all I have ever done since I've owned the boat.
As I continued winding, I noticed the net reel valve, which I had just rebuilt, was leaking a very slowly out of the top. I shook my head with the realization I would somehow have to find time to fix that minor detail before it ran the hydraulic tank dry.
We finished loading the net aboard around 11:30 on Saturday night. I was very glad I had taken the time to put the boat together so the girls could go right into their bunks. They didn't even wait for me to tie the boat up to the dock — they just jumped into the bunk and hit the rack. I followed suit as quickly as I could, but with all the necessary screwing around I had to do before I could call it a night, it wasn't until after 1 a.m. before I was horizontal in my bunk.

The Hershey Half Marathon will represent many things for Becky Orsinger on Sunday, but the most important will ring closest to her heart.
It will mark the first time, officially, that she will run in honor of her daughter Lillian, who from birth was diagnosed with right coronal craniosynostosis, a condition that affects the growth of the skull.
"She's always an inspiration and a driving force with everything that I do," Orsinger said recently. "During the half marathon I did in September [in Harrisburg], the last five miles I just wanted to quit. But I thought of her. When she goes through surgery she can't quit. That's not an option.
"She has to endure that pain. There's no quitting. That's what I tell myself. So when I do these things, there's no quitting. She can't quit, so I can't quit."
The 29-year-old Orsinger, who was a teacher before she became a stay-at-home mom, will run only half the race on Sunday as she teams up with a friend for the relay portion. The original plan was to run the full amount. But a bit of bad news got in the way.
Four weeks ago, another curveball was thrown in the Orsinger's direction.
Doctors told she and her husband that Lillian, who went through reconstructive surgery just weeks after birth to realign the skull, would need another surgery.
As her brain developed and grew, Becky said, it pushed the skull outward, creating an abnormal growth that needed repair. Ultimately, she said, the surgery was necessary. It will be her third surgery overall.
"Until her skull is fully grown, we're in a wait and see type thing," Orsinger said, noting that there could more surgeries in the future. "She looks great right now. She had her second surgery at Philadelphia. She looks great but we have to watch."
Fortunately, for all the bad news there is certainly good news, too. Lillian is like any three-year-old her age. She walks, talks and acts like most her age.
And perhaps, that's why fighting this condition has come a bit easier for her and her family. There is light in the distance.
And there is also The Children Miracle's Network, which has provided immeasurable support for the family.
The non-profit organization has helped children all across the country, providing access to thousands of children in 170 hospitals nationwide.
Lillian is just one example. Another, seven-year-old Corbin Hutchinson, who was diagnosed with Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia at birth, will kick off the race on Sunday and will help award medals to the top finishers.
So this race felt special, almost personal, to Orsinger, who has spent endless hours at the hospital caring for her daughter. She had planned to run the race last year, until a freak accident prevented her from competing.
"It's become a big part of our lives and we have gotten a lot from the hospital and the Children's Miracle Network," Orsinger said. "If I'm going to put money into a race, I want it to go to a cause I support."
Running has become a soothing exercise for the stay-at-home mother of two. It's been a way to relieve stress, to inspire and to help energize for the day ahead.
"When I'm running, I'm always trying to push myself to new distance," she said. "Every time I set out and achieve something, it helps me realize I can do it. Running is hard, but you can push through it."

Since 'Welcome to Myrtle Manor' debuted on TLC in March, cast member Taylor J. Burt has gotten used to all the attention – both positive and negative.
"You know I was made to be kind of the tattooed bad boy of the show, which is fine, I kind of look the part, and they edit it how they want to," Burt said. "But all in all it's entertainment and it's a great show."
But it hasn't all been good for the 28 year old.
On April 27, Burt was arrested and charged with criminal sexual conduct with a minor.
A 15 year old girl and her mother filed a police report after the teen allegedly had sex with Burt.
The reality show star couldn't comment to News13 about the pending case, but his attorney Jonny McCoy says the alleged victim in the case was an "obsessed fan."
"There's been repeated pieces of evidence that have come to light showing that this was an infatuation that went too far for the young lady," McCoy said.
But the trouble didn't stop there.
More recently, Burt was arrested and charged with disorderly conduct after a fight broke out in the early hours of the morning on October 6.
He says he was attempting to break up a fight between two other men.
"Fortunately in this most recent case we have video evidence that I wasn't really involved in any altercation at all, it was just a misunderstanding on, I guess, the authority's part and now that we have evidence of that it should be cleared," he said.
Both Burt and McCoy say if it wasn't for Myrtle Manor, things might be different.
"I'll tell you what, if this was in Hollywood where they're used to this type of show, and they're used to these type of characters, none of this would have ever been brought up to the limelight," McCoy said.
Even still, Burt says he doesn't regret his time on the show.
He believes if he's cleared of the charges against him, people will start to see him differently.
"I know I might have a certain image because of the tattoos and things, but my mom's a good old southern woman who raised a good southern man." He said. "I've never had a sip of alcohol, touched at drug in my life. I might do nightlife for a living, but that's just work — that's all it is."
Crews began shooting a second season of 'Welcome to Myrtle Manor' over the summer.
Burt could neither confirm or deny whether he will appear in the upcoming season.

REDLANDS – The season is starting to fall into place for Citrus Valley's boys volleyball team.
The Blackhawks had to start from scratch after graduating nine seniors from last season's San Andreas League champion team.
But on Tuesday Citrus Valley looked like it put the growing pains in the past and won for the fourth time in five outings with 3-0 victory over Redlands.
It was a 25-21, 25-22, 25-22 win for the Blackhawks.
"It was almost like starting with brand new players," Citrus Valley coach Luis Chanure said. "But we are jelling at the right time. We are working hard and it's paying off."
Citrus Valley (5-9, 5-5) is in the middle of the pack of the CBL title race.
"It's been tough but we knew that at the start," Chanure said. "We had two goals, to make the playoffs and defend this school well. Coming into the CBL, we wanted to make sure they understood our league championship was no fluke. We want to be taken seriously."
Citrus Valley's progress can been seen with the matches against Redlands. The Terriers swept Citrus Valley in the first encounter. RHS won the second encounter in five.
This latest victory is somewhat of an upset. Redlands went into it with an 8-3 CBL record and was 10-3 on the season.
And injuries have hit Redlands hard. Aryoc Arellano had to go to the hospital after the match after a fall at the net. And Cal Mende was out with an ankle injury as well.
Nevertheless, Citrus Valley owns wins over Redlands East Valley (twice), Eisenhower, San Gorgonio and now over Redlands.
"We've put in the time," Chanure said. "We're working hard and that is the bottom line."
And in those wins the play of sophomore setter Ryan Beachtel has been a key. He finished Tuesday's win with 17 assists.
"He is a sophomore, so he's going to be the life of the program for a couple of years," Chanure said. "We are pushing him hard. He has to be the leader, he has to run the team."
Citrus Valley's Guillermo Aguilar had three aces in the win and Stephen Dulay finished with five kills.
Citrus Valley hosts Redlands East Valley on Thursday.
