Just two days before the assassination of Osama bin Laden by U.S. special forces eclipsed all other newsworthy issues, another targeted assassination was carried out by NATO forces in Tripoli, except there, the target was missed. That target was Libyan leader Muamar Gaddafi, and the missile that struck the home of his youngest son didn't take the life it sought. Instead, the bombing of the home, located in a residential neighborhood of the Libyan capital, killed the 29-year old German-educated Saif al-Arab al-Gaddafi and three of his nieces and nephews, all under the age of 12. Apparently, Gaddafi was inside the house with his wife at the time, but both escaped unharmed. Several critics have spoken out against the targeted assassination of the Libyan head of state, but NATO officials have offered little response. They claim that the attack in the middle of an upscale neighborhood around 8 in the evening on Saturday April 30 was carried out against "a military command and control building with a precision strike." Military paraphernalia recovered from the rubble included the video game Modern Warfare 2 for the Playstation console, and children's books.
But the mainstream media largely ignored the "accidental" killings of four innocent civilians by NATO forces on April 30 in their mission to protect civilians, as it erupted on May 2 in a chorus of praise for president Obama. The fact that targeted assassination 'worked' to put an end to the life of alleged 9/11 mastermind bin Laden conveniently eases the public into acquiescence with the plainly illegal strategy, drawing praise from even self-proclaimed 'critics' like Jon Stewart, whose 'Daily Show' featured a positively nauseating celebration of the supposed terrorist's death. The piece ends with Stewart whooping, "we're back baby!" as the map behind him shows an animated map in which the state of Florida inflates into the Atlantic to resemble a fully engorged penis, "and," he adds as a scrotal-shaped landmass appears in the Gulf of Mexico, "our testicles have descended."
Indeed, the macho rhetoric employed by Stewart, by the college students seen cheering 'USA' in the streets the night of bin Laden's death, and by the entire lexicon of the so-call Global War on Terror, like any form of phallo-centric chauvinism, betrays a deeper insecurity. The paternalistic messaging that was used to sell the invasion of Libya to the American people (as well as to the French, British, Spanish, Italian and other NATO-member states' populations) — that NATO was enforcing UN Security Council Resolution 1973 and taking up the 'responsibility to protect' — painted a rather thin veneer over the geopolitical motives that laid behind. As NATO unsuccessfully denies that its air-strikes are seeking to murder Gaddafi, one must wonder how far Western governments will go to set up a puppet regime under the auspices of neoliberal opportunist Mahmoud Jibril's National Transitional Council. It now appears that the British will overtly fund the rebel forces, and it seems likely that the rest of the allies will follow suit. Meanwhile, the civilian death toll of NATO strikes on Tripoli had exceeded 40 by the end of March.
And as if the 'accidental' killing of so many of the civilians NATO is supposed to be protecting were not enough to show that the multinational cold-war military alliance isn't in Libya for humanitarian reasons, its response to the humanitarian refugee crisis that is filling the Mediterranean with bodies certainly is. The Guardian has reported that in the last month alone, some 800 migrant workers who left the Libyan mainland never arrived at their European destinations and are presumed dead. Now, the participating armies have on their hands the blood of 61 African migrant workers whose escape boat ran out of fuel about 60 miles off the Libyan coast.
The boat's passengers managed to reach an Eritrean priest in Rome via satellite phone, who relayed their call to the Italian Coast Guard. The Coast Guard told the priest that the boat's location had been pinpointed and that the alarm had been raised to help the refugees. Soon a military helicopter of unknown origin lowered water bottles and biscuits to the wayward boat, and informed them that help was on the way. But help never came. Days later, a French aircraft carrier came into view. So close was the Charles de Gaulle to the drifting boat that it would have been impossible for such a well-equipped vessel not to have taken notice of the refugees. It sent out two sorties of fighter jets, but no rescue boats, despite passengers' frantic attempts to contact the sailors on board. After 16 days at sea, 61 of the 72 passengers had starved to death, and one of the 11 survivors dropped dead shortly after stepping foot on land as the boat washed ashore near the Libyan city of Zeitan.
NATO could have prevented these deaths, and more, if only it would spend a bit less time and effort trying to effect a favorable regime change in Libya, and a bit more on its "responsibility to protect." But perhaps the best thing NATO could do now is follow the Hippocratic oath – if you can do no good, at least do no harm – and cease the bombing of Libya. From there a ceasefire could be negotiated between rebel forces and the government, with regional bodies such as the Arab League and the African Union playing mediating roles, and the Libyan people could resolve their own political issues without foreign intervention. NATO hasn't had any real reason to exist for the last twenty years, and it is about time for what has become an openly imperialist force to disband once and for all.

Asus has announced plans to unlock the bootloader on its Eee Pad Transformer Prime and bring Android 4 to the device by January 12. After facing customer scrutiny Monday for locking and encrypting the bootloader on the device, Asus announced plans to release an unlocking tool for the tablet/PC hybrid.
A post in the XDA Developers forum Monday pointed out that the Transformer Prime, a Tegra 3 quad-core tablet that can be attached to a laptop-like dock, had been released with a locked and encrypted bootloader. The poster implored others to contact Asus about unlocking the bootloader so that developers would have the freedom to install custom ROMs and engage in other experimental activities.
Asus responded in a statement, saying that the bootloader is locked "due to content providers' requirement for DRM client devices to be as secure as possible." Despite that requirement, Asus stated it will release an unlocking tool for the development community, but it noted that using the tool will make renting videos via Google impossible and will void the warranty for the product. Asus did not specify a release date for the unlocking tool, but said that it is in development.
Asus is the second company this week to support the unlocking of bootloaders. HTC faced a consumer backlash in May over the locked bootloaders in its devices, but on December 29 the company released a tool to unlock the bootloaders in some phones and tablets.
Asus also announced it will be releasing Android 4 for the Transformer Prime in an over-the-air update on January 12. Another recent software update improved the camera's focus, the "fluidity" of the touch experience, and "the APK capabilities in the Android Market" (whatever that means).

"Google's Pixel succeeds as a tool and falls short as a laptop."
- Rock-solid build quality
- Excellent touchpad
- Sharp, bright 2560 x 1700 display
- Unparalleled Web performance
- Runs cool and quiet
- 1TB of free cloud storage for 3 years
- Uninspired design
- No USB 3.0
- Short battery life
- Overpriced
Surprises are not Google's forte. The company which re-defined the word "beta" often offers services well in advance of their "official" release, and though hardware can't follow this trend by its nature, the press is rarely blind-sided by a product. And then, out of nowhere, came the Pixel.
Until now, Google has been happy to promote hardware through cut-rate pricing. The entire Nexus line leans strongly on value to sell units. Pixel, however, doesn't rely on that excuse. It puts a banner in the ground and shouts "Google can do quality, too. Just you watch!"
So, can Google do quality? The answer looks positive on paper. All of the expected specifications are here: Core i5 processor, Intel integrated graphics, 4GB of RAM, solid-state drive – but the display is the start of the show. The Pixel comes equipped with a 2560 x 1700 panel, the highest-resolution display on any laptop today (Retina is 2560 x 1600). This excellent equipment helps justify the Pixel's starting price of $1,299, but is Chrome OS ready to support a premium laptop?
Runway competition
The Pixel looks like a modern incarnation of a laptop built in 2006. The boxy and flat display lid, featureless interior, and full-width hinge are elements reminiscent of older PCs instead of today's latest and greatest. All of this cumulates in a design that works, but has a whiff of engineering prototype.
The lack of obvious branding and featureless surfaces may be a boon to some, but they keep the system from looking as expensive as it should. Which is a shame, because build quality is excellent. Every surface feels sturdy from every angle. There's no bending, no flexing, and no creaking of materials. A MacBook may look better, yes, but the Pixel is neck-and-neck when it comes to feel.
There are some small touches worth noting as well. An LED strip on the lid acts as the laptop's defining aesthetic feature and, while usually lit blue, it fades to Google's rainbow of colors when the lid is closed. Also, as we recently found out, this LED strip also blinks frantically when the user enters the Konami Code. We also appreciate the lack of material surrounding the display, which rival's Dell's XPS 13 for barely-there bezels.
Connectivity is a sore point, however. While the ports are in convenient locations, the Pixel only serves up two USB 2.0, mini-DisplayPort, and a 2-in-1 card reader. The lack of USB 3.0 is a disappointment. Moving files to and from an external drive will always be tedious on the Pixel. Google may think this doesn't matter (the cloud, and stuff, you know?), but come on. This is 2013 – not 2023. Not everyone has converted to the cloud concept.
Interface issues
One of the Pixel's headline features is the inclusion of touch input. This is the highest-resolution touch display on the market (even all-in-one desktop PCs are behind), so that's great, right? Well … no.
Touch is present, and it works, but that's where the good news ends. Navigation is laggy and choppy. Our movements were sometimes met with a split-second of nothing before the Pixel sprung to life, and fast scrolling often moved in jerks and starts.
We know that input, not performance, is the problem. How? The touchpad isn't plagued by these issues. As with the less expensive Chromebooks on the market, the touchpad on the Pixel is among the best. Our input was met with instant response and scrolling proved butter smooth. The laggy touchscreen isn't a sensitivity issue, either; the touchpad scrolls through a page more quickly than the touchscreen when both are at their default settings.
As for the keyboard, we came away unimpressed. Space is ample in spite of the laptop's small frame, and key caps are large, so typing is pleasant at first. However, the keys lack travel and feel vague when they bottom out. These traits make the experience less precise than it could be.
That's not to say the keyboard is bad. We think it average. But consumers spending over $1,000 on a laptop will be expecting more.
Display: The killer feature
The incredible 2560 x 1700 display will draw anyone looking to buy a Pixel in its direction. There's no doubt that this panel is among the best sold today. We found it bright, colorful, and incredibly sharp.
There are also other, more subtle advantages. Scaling is one. Both Windows and Macs have to deal with legacy apps coded with much lower display resolutions in mind. If they're not scaled, they may be unusable; but scaling often introduces a blurry look. Chrome OS avoids this problem because everything can be scaled within the browser. The result is a more uniform experience that always makes maximum use of the pixel count.
Speaking of which, the extra 100 vertical pixels aren't included for novelty. Google has designed the laptop with a 3:2 aspect ratio instead of the wider 16:9 found on almost every competitor. Because most Web pages are designed to scroll vertically, rather than horizontally, the Pixel can display more content than competitors.
Audio quality has been a sore spot in earlier Chromebooks – but not here. We were blown away by one of the
The Chrome OS experience
Chrome OS hasn't had any major additions since the last Chromebook we reviewed, the Acer C7 Chromebook. That's not a complaint. Formerly just a browser in a box, the experience is now more reminiscent of a Windows machine. There are windows, a task bar, a system tray, and more.
Google has also taken steps to make sure the operating system isn't useless offline. Users can now edit documents and emails while in offline mode (assuming the laptop has been previously synced with Gmail and Google Drive). Changes are automatically saved online when an Internet connection is re-established. Some Web apps can be installed and used offline, as well, though support for this is a bit sparse.
These advancements are important. Chrome OS is actually better than Windows or OS X when browsing the Web and performing tasks through Web applications. It feels quicker and provides a more focused interface.
Even so, many features still aren't offered. Parental controls, advanced power management, keyboard customization, display calibration – all of these are absent. There are many tasks this system can't perform because the operating system lacks the required features.
Quick with some caveats
Most benchmarks won't work on Chrome OS, which leaves us without objective scores to present. That's not a serious issue, however, because the hardware isn't exotic. The Core i5 processor, clocked at 1.8 GHz, is similar to that found in many Ultrabooks. Other specifications include 4GB of
All of this makes for an experience that's quick and fluid. Web browsing isn't difficult for a Core i5 to handle, so if that's all you expect your Chromebook to handle, the hardware in the Pixel may actually be overkill.
There are some issues, however. Intel HD 4000 isn't a quick graphics solution to begin with, and we felt it performed worse than it should during our tests. Even simple 3D games played in-browser were often unsatisfactory. And while the solid-state drive is quick, its base capacity of 32GB is incredibly small. Yes, most storage will be in the cloud, and Google offers Pixel buyers 1TB of free cloud storage (for three years). But what if users want to install Web apps or listen to music offline?
Battery life in Peacekeeper's browser benchmark proved poor at 2 hours and 52 minutes. This is among the lowest results we've recorded from a thin-and-light computer. Less strenuous testing bumped life to about 5 hours, which is adequate, but still below average.
Quiet and cool
Stressing the Pixel enough to kick the fan into high gear is difficult because of the limited selection of demanding apps. Games are the best bet, and, when needed, the fan does become audible. In most other situations, however, the fan is nearly silent. We couldn't register any sound above ambient on our decibel meter and our ears could only detect the fan in a dead-silent room.
Temperatures remained tolerable in spite of the sleepy fan. At idle, we measured nothing above 89 degrees Fahrenheit. Gaming brought this figure up to 98.9 degrees, which is noticeable, but well below average compared to Windows Ultrabooks. Users who want a quiet and cool system will find the Pixel a good choice.
Google's new Chromebook Pixel is a tool. It is designed to handle one thing – the Web – better than any other product. And it's successful. It renders websites with incredible sharpness, and the Core i5 processor can handle multiple tabs without breaking a sweat.
As a laptop, however, the Pixel falls short. Design is middling, battery life is poor, internal storage is scant, and keyboard quality falls short. Then there's the operating system itself. Beyond the fact that it's not Windows, Chrome OS lacks many features that users take for granted in a modern PC.
For a few users – those who use the Internet for everything – the Pixel could be a revelation. There's nothing else that even comes close to providing a better online experience. Most expect a laptop to be a PC, however, not just a tool – and that's where the Pixel's falls apart. Smart consumers will pass up the Pixel and instead buy the 13-inch MacBook Pro with Retina, which is a far more powerful system that's just $200 more.
We might be able to recommend the Pixel if the price was a little better for the Web tool that it is. Instead, Google has priced its flagship Chromebook to compete with the laptops on the market – and it just can't.

pathconf, lpathconf, fpathconf — get configurable pathname variables
Standard C Library (libc, -lc)
#include <unistd.h> long pathconf(const char *path, int name); long lpathconf(const char *path, int name); long fpathconf(int fd, int name);
The pathconf(), lpathconf() and fpathconf() system calls provide a method for applications to determine the current value of a configurable system limit or option variable associated with a pathname or file descriptor. For pathconf() and lpathconf(), the path argument is the name of a file or directory. For fpathconf(), the fd argument is an open file descriptor. The name argument specifies the system variable to be queried. Symbolic constants for each name value are found in the include file <unistd.h>. The lpathconf() system call is like pathconf() except in the case where the named file is a symbolic link, in which case lpathconf() returns information about the link, while pathconf() returns information about the file the link references. The available values are as follows: _PC_LINK_MAX The maximum file link count. _PC_MAX_CANON The maximum number of bytes in terminal canonical input line. _PC_MAX_INPUT The minimum maximum number of bytes for which space is available in a terminal input queue. _PC_NAME_MAX The maximum number of bytes in a file name. _PC_PATH_MAX The maximum number of bytes in a pathname. _PC_PIPE_BUF The maximum number of bytes which will be written atomically to a pipe. _PC_CHOWN_RESTRICTED Return 1 if appropriate privilege is required for the chown(2) system call, otherwise 0. IEEE Std 1003.1-2001 ("POSIX.1") requires appropriate privilege in all cases, but this behavior was optional in prior editions of the standard. _PC_NO_TRUNC Return greater than zero if attempts to use pathname components longer than {NAME_MAX} will result in an [ENAMETOOLONG] error; otherwise, such components will be truncated to {NAME_MAX}. IEEE Std 1003.1-2001 ("POSIX.1") requires the error in all cases, but this behavior was optional in prior editions of the standard, and some non-POSIX-compliant file systems do not support this behavior. _PC_VDISABLE Returns the terminal character disabling value. _PC_ASYNC_IO Return 1 if asynchronous I/O is supported, otherwise 0. _PC_PRIO_IO Returns 1 if prioritised I/O is supported for this file, otherwise 0. _PC_SYNC_IO Returns 1 if synchronised I/O is supported for this file, otherwise 0. _PC_ALLOC_SIZE_MIN Minimum number of bytes of storage allocated for any portion of a file. _PC_FILESIZEBITS Number of bits needed to represent the maximum file size. _PC_REC_INCR_XFER_SIZE Recommended increment for file transfer sizes between _PC_REC_MIN_XFER_SIZE and _PC_REC_MAX_XFER_SIZE. _PC_REC_MAX_XFER_SIZE Maximum recommended file transfer size. _PC_REC_MIN_XFER_SIZE Minimum recommended file transfer size. _PC_REC_XFER_ALIGN Recommended file transfer buffer alignment. _PC_SYMLINK_MAX Maximum number of bytes in a symbolic link. _PC_ACL_EXTENDED Returns 1 if an Access Control List (ACL) can be set on the specified file, otherwise 0. _PC_ACL_NFS4 Returns 1 if an NFSv4 ACLs can be set on the specified file, otherwise 0. _PC_ACL_PATH_MAX Maximum number of ACL entries per file. _PC_CAP_PRESENT Returns 1 if a capability state can be set on the specified file, otherwise 0. _PC_INF_PRESENT Returns 1 if an information label can be set on the specified file, otherwise 0. _PC_MAC_PRESENT Returns 1 if a Mandatory Access Control (MAC) label can be set on the specified file, otherwise 0. _PC_MIN_HOLE_SIZE If a file system supports the reporting of holes (see lseek(2)), pathconf() and fpathconf() return a positive number that represents the minimum hole size returned in bytes. The offsets of holes returned will be aligned to this same value. A special value of 1 is returned if the file system does not specify the minimum hole size but still reports holes.
If the call to pathconf() or fpathconf() is not successful, -1 is returned and errno is set appropriately. Otherwise, if the variable is associated with functionality that does not have a limit in the system, -1 is returned and errno is not modified. Otherwise, the current variable value is returned.
If any of the following conditions occur, the pathconf() and fpathconf() system calls shall return -1 and set errno to the corresponding value. [EINVAL] The value of the name argument is invalid. [EINVAL] The implementation does not support an association of the variable name with the associated file. The pathconf() system call will fail if: [ENOTDIR] A component of the path prefix is not a directory. [ENAMETOOLONG] A component of a pathname exceeded {NAME_MAX} characters (but see _PC_NO_TRUNC above), or an entire path name exceeded {PATH_MAX} characters. [ENOENT] The named file does not exist. [EACCES] Search permission is denied for a component of the path prefix. [ELOOP] Too many symbolic links were encountered in translating the pathname. [EIO] An I/O error occurred while reading from or writing to the file system. [EINTEGRITY] Corrupted data was detected while reading from the file system. The fpathconf() system call will fail if: [EBADF] The fd argument is not a valid open file descriptor. [EIO] An I/O error occurred while reading from or writing to the file system. [EINTEGRITY] Corrupted data was detected while reading from the file system.
lseek(2), sysctl(3)
The pathconf() and fpathconf() system calls first appeared in 4.4BSD. The lpathconf() system call first appeared in FreeBSD 8.0.

Do you know the mascots for Rice Krispies by name? I didn't. Now I do.
Now you know too. Poor Pop--not only is he always named last, but he's also forced to look like some sort of silly train conductor.
I also didn't know they had their names on their hats. Doh.
Moving on. I found some stale-ish once-crispy rice cereal at work and swiped it before it got tossed into the trash--I knew I could put it to good use. Waste not, want not, right? I found a flexible recipe for some cereal bars and tweaked it to my heart's content. It called for pie filling, but all I had on hand was some delightful chunky applesauce that I thought would be a suitable replacement, and it was. Also, there were no spices in the recipe, and that's just a travesty. Guess which spice I added.
These bars were pretty soft, and I'm sure that has a lot to do with my decision to replace corn syrup with caramel sauce. Also, the applesauce wasn't as thick as a pie filling would've been, so that was probably a contributing factor as well. No matter, this dessert was still quite tasty. Apples and cinnamon and caramel tend to be like that.
Chewy Apple Streusel Bars
(inspired by these)
4 cups crispy rice cereal
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup margarine or butter, melted
1/2 cup caramel sauce
2 cups applesauce (I like mine chun-kay)
1 tablespoon cinnamon
In a large mixing bowl, combine cereal, flour, sugar, margarine, and caramel sauce. Remove 1 cup mixture and set aside for topping. Press remaining cereal mixture evenly and firmly in bottom of 9 x 9 x 2-inch baking pan coated with cooking spray.
Bake at 350°F for about 15 minutes or until light golden brown. Remove from oven and spread apples over hot crust. Sprinkle evenly with cinnamon and remaining cereal mixture. Return to the oven and bake 20 minutes longer. Cool completely in pan on wire rack before cutting into bars.

Oh Grace you may have saved me! I've got my sister's and coworker's b-days and a serious urge to bake. Ben's diet has put a huge dent in my culinary creativity. I was waffling between Prudy's apple bars and oatmeal scotchies or krispie treats--and I think you found the perfect combo!

want to hear something funny? today at work we were trying to clean out the fridge and food in the snack room and someone found 2 cereal boxes. they asked whose they belonged to and we found it was from someone who doesn't work there anymore....well the girl goes to throw them away and i said, "wait! don't waste those" ha ha - great minds think alike, huh? only when she opened them to make sure they weren't stale, a bunch of gnats went flying out!! ewwwwwwww. and we had been saying today that we didn't know why there have been so many gnats around our workplace lately :P ewwwwww

First of all, these look delicious! I haven't had a rice crispy treat for years, but this looks like a much improved version.
Second, a story. When I was a freshman in college our dining hall had some sort of trivia night. They gave away prizes, and what should my roommates and I walk away with but three life size cut-out cardboard figures of the Crack, Snapple, and Pop. We proudly displayed them in our dorm room.

I did in fact know that they had names, but did YOU know that the names are translated in different countries? In South Africa, their Afrikaans counterparts are Klap Knetter & Kraak. And (apparently) in Finland it's Riks, Raks & Roks; in France it's Cric, Crac & Croc; in Germany it's Knisper, Knasper & Knusper; in Sweden it's Piff, Paff & Puff; and in Spain it's Pim, Pum & Pam.

i made the right choice
By Drew on Wednesday, February 10, 2021after going back & forth on wether to purchase the pilot, highlander or the CX-9 i went w/ the CX-9 Carbon Edition. didn't even bother test driving the pilot-my last THREE cars were accords-and after test driving the highlander, it was just too slow & felt like a mom-mobile. CX-9 is sporty, classy & drives lile a car. nest purchase i've ever made.

By RayQC on Friday, June 28, 2019I have owned this car for 3 years now and I haven't had any issues at all, except for the Infotaiment System that had an small crack inside. Called Mazda after a month, they had it replaced after 2 weeks. Don't buy this car if you are shopping for 7-seater as the 3rd row is kinda small. I have a family of 3 so I didn't really need it, I just use it as 2rows with a huge space at the back. The interior is one of the best in it's class. The driving is even better compared to Pilot and Highlander. The Turbo engine gives you a more exciting driving experience and of course Mazda's SkyActiv tech. All in all, It really is a reliable SUV for a family of 3-5. The Quality is great, comfort is above average, styling is top-notch and Value is the best. For 35k USD this is the cheapest yet best when it comes to performance. Really an underrated SUV.

So far it's what I expected... pretty great !
By Montanaman on Friday, February 15, 2019I've owned a few Mazda's in the past and have been a fan of the brand for a long time so when this SUV came out 3 years ago it got my attention. Obviously it looks great inside and out and is a cut above all the other other mid-size 3 row vehicles it compete's against. The new Santa Fe is close. Mazda's reputation for building cars that handle well does apply to the CX-9 albeit with a plusher,softer ride. The concerns about this car having a turbo 4 banger are unfounded. This power train set up is close to perfect and there is no evidence that it will be not reliable in the long run. The car has plenty of power for most driving only lacking some top end power at higher RPM's. The good: Interior fit and finish and usability. Infotainment is now complete with Apple Car Play/Andoid auto. Fantastic feel behind the wheel.. IE driving dynamics. Its just really good. Exterior styling is a 10 in my opinion. Usable power is right where you need it 90% of the time. HUD and other safety features. HUD is a premium car safety feature. The bad: Fuel economy could be a bit better. I'm averaging 21in mixed driving. Interior space could be tight for larger folks. It works for me though. Third row is tight but they all are and I'll never use it. "A" pillars are very thick and create large blind spots. Engine noise is a bit too loud under hard acceleration. Some torque steer under cornering while accelerating. The unknown: long term reliability. If you need a larger SUV/wagon type vehicle that can haul a good amount of people or stuff and want more of a sports/luxury feel without breaking the bank this is your car. I've had Beemers and Benzes and this car legitimately feels and looks as nice.

Miley Cyrus continues a tour of guilty pleasuresNASHVILLE - Miley's back, y'all.
Miley Cyrus made her delayed-due-to-illness return to the town where she grew up Thursday night, bringing a flying hot dog, a dwarf dressed as the Liberty Bell, a dozen recognizable hits, a taunt to the girls who beat her up in school and a lot of inappropriate touching. Drawing a crowd of mostly young women - and a hefty number of moms - the show was a little bit pop concert, a little bit late-night pay cable and a little bit great.
In the audience: Two 20-something women with a gift for arts and crafts arrived at Cyrus' homecoming concert with identical bedazzled shirts that read, "R.I.P. Hannah Montana." Look no further than that for the official theme to Cyrus' Bangerz Tour, a pastiche of weird culture that plays a lot like a YouTube channel devoted to absurdist performance art.
The surprising thing, after the former teen television star raised such a lather last year with a highly memorable MTV Video Music Awards appearance, is how tame the show actually is.
It's true that Nashville is a pretty quiet town. And sure, Cyrus does simulate sex acts on stage during a few songs - Abe Lincoln has never seemed less presidential - and mentions drug use.
But the woman whose twerking and foam finger started a national discussion balanced her naughty images and saucier choreography with messages espousing personal freedom and a few moments of pop perfection.
For the most part, the night - her fifth date since restarting a U.S. tour that was postponed for more than three months after an allergic reaction to antibiotics - was PG-13, filled with images that are unavoidable on the Internet where much of Cyrus' audience spends its time. The only thing pushing the show into truly R-rated territory was Cyrus' spirited use of the F-word.
The debate over Cyrus' transformation from wholesome teen to a young woman exploring her sexuality hovered around the sold-out show as mothers shepherded thousands of teenage girls into Bridgestone Arena, where the 21-year-old singer once attended shows as a teen herself. For some she was a guilty pleasure, and the presence of rolling papers, booty shorts and inflatable bananas at the merchandise table only added to the feeling of taboo.
Inside the arena, Cyrus gave something of a history lesson in over-the-top moments in pop music. For all the guff Cyrus has gotten, she's not covering unfamiliar territory. Touching your special parts (Michael Jackson), well-endowed dancers expert in the butterfly (2 Live Crew), uncovered rear ends (David Lee Roth) are milestones passed decades ago.
And to be clear, there were a lot of these things - a whole lot - during Cyrus' 2 1/2-hour, 20-plus song set, along with flying kittens, inflatable dogs three stories tall, plushy dancers, giant tongues and even a simulated orgy. But there were also a lot of impressive moments where Cyrus showed her growing prowess as an entertainer. She pushed her voice to the edge at times while holding the attention of 16,000 people with just a microphone, and had moms and daughters singing every word with the same gusto.

text: Back The Orthopedic Treatment Team What is orthopedics? The word orthopedic comes from two Greek words: Ortho meaning straight Paedia meaning children Orthopedic surgery is the branch of medicine concerned with diseases, injuries, and conditions of the musculoskeletal system relating to the body's muscles and skeleton, and including the joints, ligaments, tendons, and nerves. Who treats orthopedic conditions? Orthopedic conditions may be treated by your doctor and/or other medical specialists and health are providers. Several doctors from different medical specialties may be involved in the treatment at the same time. This multidisciplinary team approach is particularly important in managing the symptoms of an orthopedic condition, especially as many symptoms are chronic and change in severity over time. Some of the more common medical professionals involved in the treatment of orthopedic conditions may include the following: Primary care doctor. A primary care doctor is one who has specialized education and training in general internal medicine, family practice, or another first-level-of-care area. Primary care doctors are those who provide patients with any/all of the following: Routine health care (including annual physical examinations and immunizations) Treatment for acute medical conditions Initial care for conditions that may become more serious or chronic in nature While your primary care doctor may treat and/or diagnose your disease, he or she may refer you to a specialist for more specialized treatment of certain aspects of a disease. Orthopedic surgeon. The doctor who specializes in orthopedic surgery is called an orthopedic surgeon, or sometimes, simply, an orthopedist. Orthopedists are educated in the workings of the musculoskeletal system, which includes (but is not limited to) diagnosing a bone, muscle, joint, tendon, or ligament condition or disorder, treating an injury, providing rehabilitation suggestions for an affected area, and establishing prevention protocols to minimize further damage to a diseased area or component of the musculoskeletal system. The orthopedist may have completed up to 14 years of formal education. After becoming licensed to practice medicine, the orthopedic surgeon may become board-certified by passing both oral and written examinations given by the American Board of Orthopaedic Surgery. Many orthopedic surgeons choose to practice general orthopedics, while others specialize in certain areas of the body (i.e., foot, hand, shoulder, spine, hip, or knee), or in a specialized area of orthopedic care (i.e., sports medicine, trauma medicine). Some orthopedists may specialize in several areas and may collaborate with other specialists, such as neurosurgeons or rheumatologists, in caring for patients. Rheumatologist. A rheumatologist is a doctor who specializes in the treatment of arthritis and other rheumatic diseases that may affect joints, muscles, bones, skin, and other tissues. Most rheumatologists have a background in internal medicine or pediatrics and have received additional training in the field of rheumatology. Rheumatologists are specially trained to identify many types of rheumatic diseases in their earliest stages, including arthritis, many types of autoimmune diseases, musculoskeletal pain, and disorders of the musculoskeletal system. In addition to four years of medical school and three years of specialized training in internal medicine or pediatrics, a rheumatologist has had an additional two or three years of specialized training in the field of rheumatology. A rheumatologist may also be board certified by the American Board of Internal Medicine. Physical therapist. Physical therapy is the health profession that focuses on the neuromuscular, musculoskeletal, and cardiopulmonary systems of the human body, as these systems relate to human motion, health, and function. Physical therapists, or PTs, are very important members of the health care team. They evaluate and provide treatment for persons with health problems resulting from injury, disease, or overuse of muscles, ligaments, or tendons.Physical therapists have an undergraduate degree in physical therapy, and many have a Master's degree. In order to practice, all graduates must be licensed by their state by passing a national certification examination.Physical therapists may practice in a variety of settings, including the following: Hospitals Rehabilitation centers Home health agencies Schools Sports facilities Community health centers Private practice As related to orthopedic conditions, physical therapists provide comprehensive training that includes, but is not limited to, the following: Functional mobility Balance and gait retraining Soft-tissue mobilization Body mechanics education Wheelchair safety and management Neuromuscular re-education Exercise programming Family education and training Assistance with pain relief and management Instruction in safe ambulation Pre- and post-surgical rehabilitation Occupational therapist. Occupational therapy is a health care profession that uses "occupation," or purposeful activity, to help persons with physical, developmental, or emotional disabilities lead independent, productive, and satisfying lives.An occupational therapist often coordinates the following in the care for the individual with a debilitating condition, such as an orthopedic condition: Evaluating children and adults with developmental or neuromuscular problems in order to plan treatment activities that will help them grow mentally, socially, and physically Assisting children and adults in learning how to carry out daily tasks Conducting group or individual treatment to help children and adults in a mental health center learn to cope with daily activities Recommending changes in layout and design of the home or school to allow children and adults with injuries or disabilities greater access and mobility Occupational therapists work in a variety of different settings, including the following: Hospitals Rehabilitation centers Schools Home care agencies Private practice Government agencies Physiatrist. Physical medicine and rehabilitation, also known as physiatry, is a medical specialty that involves the process of restoring lost abilities for a person who has been disabled as a result of disease, disorder, or injury. Physiatry provides integrated, multidisciplinary care aimed at recovery of the whole person by addressing the patient's physical, psychological, medical, vocational, and social needs. The doctor who specializes in physical medicine and rehabilitation is called a physiatrist. Podiatrist. A podiatrist specializes in foot care and is licensed to prescribe medication and perform surgery. Nurses/nurse practitioners. Nurse practitioners who specialize in the care of orthopedic conditions may assist your doctor in providing care. In addition, these nurses will help you to understand your treatment plan and can answer many of your questions. Depending on the specific condition involved, other doctors and health care professionals may be involved in treating orthopedic conditions. For example, a neurologist or neurosurgeon may assist in treating problems involving the spine because of involvement of the spinal cord. Occupational therapists may be involved in treating conditions that require rehabilitation. Occupational therapists often work in conjunction with physical therapists.

Florida Gulf Coast Basketball Coach Andy Enfield is Married to Amanda Marcum, Former Maxim & Victoria's Secret Model
By Jason McIntyre
Amanda Marcum is a model you may have heard of – she's been on the cover of Elle, Vogue and Maxim – and she's also the wife of Florida Gulf Coach basketball coach Andy Enfield. The story of how they met has a When Harry Met Sally feel to it:
"In 2003, a friend introduced Enfield to Amanda Marcum, who had worked her way from Mustang, Okla., population 13,000, to covergirl status in Manhattan. The 5-10, green-eyed natural blonde who has walked runways for Chanel and Jean Paul Gaultier, been featured in ads for Victoria's Secret, Liz Claiborne and Armani, and been on the covers of Elle, Maxim, Vogue, etc., was a big Oklahoma State fan and needed a ride to Boston to catch the Cowboys' NCAA tourney second-rounder. The clean-cut Enfield impressed Amanda, nine years his junior, with his sense of humor, confidence and sports knowledge. Soon after they had their first date — to a St. John's NIT game — and six months later, they were engaged. They've been married almost eight years."
Very, very cool. The Eagles, a 15 seed, play Georgetown in the NCAA tournament Friday at 6:50 pm. [via Sports Illustrated]
