Miley Cyrus posed at the Walt Disney World resort in Florida, this time dressed. She apparently reverted back to the squeaky-clean mode after Disney, her dad and she realized that the topless underage photo shoot for Vanity Fair is bound to hurt the business, and that can’t be allowed to happen. After all, it’s tens of millions at stake, maybe more. Cyrus posed outside the Magic Kingdom with Mickey and Minnie Mouse and signed autographs.
Rumors suggesting Disney might want to cease the collaboration with 15-year-old Cyrus following the Vanity Fair scandal, were shattered, as the young star is supposed to perform in a special concert at the Walt Disney World Resort in Orlando on Saturday, E! reports.
Also, Disney spokeswoman Brenda Kelly Grant told E! that nothing had changed on their production.
Not only she posed in a sexy posture in the Annie Leibovitz photoshoot, showing the young star barely covered by a sheet, back bared and displaying a seductive look, the photos with her on her father’s knee were also disturbing to most people. “This picture disturbs me. It looks like his daughter is his girlfriend. He’s trying to be hot,” radio host Howard Stern said on his show.
It is also obvious, as a WSJ article titled “The Miley Cyrus Uproar” remarks, that only a fool would believe the apologies of the adults involved in the photo shoot, including Annie Leibovitz. It’s clear as daylight that she intentionally made Miley take a sexy pose, and everybody there understood that the 15-year-old was being turned into a sex symbol: “It is a blatant bedroom shot,” says The Times’ Janice Turner.

“(Reuters) – Sharon Sarmiento knew it was time to unplug when she realized she was blogging in her dreams and hearing imaginary instant messages.
For Ariel Meadow Stallings, it was the hours lost while surfing the Internet that left her feeling like she had been in a drunken blackout.
Both women are part of a new grass-roots movement in which tech geeks, Internet addicts, BlackBerry thumbers and compulsive IMers are deciding to wrest back control of their lives by daring to switch off — if only for a day.
‘I think there is some common-sense part of us that says, ‘Wait a second. This has gone too far. We are too plugged-in,” said Sarmiento, a 30-something virtual business owner and professional blogger in Alabama.
‘It’s like our mind is going in a million different directions all the time. So taking a day when you are completely cut off from technology forces you to re-engage with the real world,’ she said.”

The lion engraving on the back of this Chinese all-in-one cellphone/pda is presumably what gives it its strange name. The strangeness doesn’t end there though: it takes dual SIM cards, does handwriting recognition and runs… well, does that look like a Windows Mobile OS to you? Kinda, slightly. The best bit? That standby time: 365 days, yes one year chaps.galleryPost(‘lionking800’, 3,”);
