    "The First Winner of Miss World Philippines Gwendolyn Ruias(Miss World Philippines 2011) went to become the first runner-up for Miss World 2011. It's been so long since we are close to bringing home the title(if I am not mistakened it was still in the 80's when we had a first runner-up. Ruffa Gutierrez was second runner-up in the 90's and she did not go through the Mutya Ng Pilipinas route(the official sender then of contestants). :-)" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NUaPS__tOYw

    I slept most of the time with the 4 hours HEAT(Al Pacino,Robert De Niro, Val Kilmer, etc) movie at Megamall back in the 90's. All what I have seen in the movie was the first 15 minutes and the last 15 minutes.Thanks to YOUTUBE, I may have the chance to "bridge the gap" about the movie! No, I slept all through the movie not because it is lousy. I was all so "boozed" the night before on a "Sabado(Saturday) Night" splurge! :-) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0xbBLJ1WGwQ

    3-day caravan from Mindanao to Manila calls for peace
    By Erwin Mascariñas | Thursday| November 3, 2011 | Filed under: Top Stories

    CAGAYAN DE ORO CITY (MindaNews/2 Nov) – Around 50 vehicles coming from several civil society organizations headed by the Reform ARMM Now (RAN) are expected to join a caravan for peace from this city to Quezon City to push the idea of calling for peace instead of the all-out war being pushed by some quarters.

    The caravan that would travel 1,900 kilometers from Nov. 3 to 5 will culminate in a peace concert on Nov. 7. The activity will launch the “RAN for Peace” or “Lakbayan para sa Kapayapaan” which would kick off at Kiosko Kagawasan at Divisoria Park here starting 1 p.m. on Nov. 3.

    “We believe that in war, there are no victors but victims,” said RAN chairperson Salic Ibrahim.

    He said the activity is a collective effort among stakeholders in Mindanao to show opposition to and sentiments about the call for an all-out war. “We firmly believe that through our concerned efforts we can contribute to the attainment of meaningful peace in ARMM (Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao) and in Mindanao as a whole,” Ibrahim said.

    Tom Villarin of Akbayan-Mindanao said his group’s main purpose in joining the caravan is to spread the message of peace all throughout the Philippines.

    “The proponents of the peace caravan believe that the message of peace and the impact of war should be understood by the people, especially those who are not living in war-affected areas,” says Villarin.

    RAN coordinator Khal Mambuay-Campong added that several other vehicles will join the group to as far as Surigao City to send off the group that would be crossing to Leyte by ferry.

    Other groups joining the caravan are the Bangsamoro Solidarity Movement (BANGSA), Anak Mindanao, Bishop-Ulama Council, Young Moro Professionals Network and the Service for Peace Mindanao.

    Participants will be coming from Tawi-tawi, Sulu, Basilan, Zamboanga peninsula, Lanao, Maguindanao, Davao and Bukidnon. The convoy will have short stops to hold programs and dialogues in the cities of Butuan in Mindanao, Tacloban in Leyte, Calamba in Laguna and Legaspi in Albay.

    On Nov. 6, the Muslim participants will pray all together on Eidl Adha at the Quezon City Memorial Circle. Then on November 7, the group will have a dialogue with the different sectors and a peace concert to culminate the activities. (Erwin Mascarinas / MindaNews)

    George Palaganas KARYLLE(male) was a revelation last night as he belted out two songs and one of it was Wency Cornejo's HANGGANG( There's Only You My Love on the MILLENNIUM MAN the musical). So other than JOSH, we can have him as a prospect for the role of the MILLENNIUM MAN on the stage. Other prospects are GAB of GAB & JOSH Band, Lance Raymundo, Jimmy Bondoc and Cesar Montano! :-)

        (Updated 11:54 p.m.) The New Seven Wonders of Nature contest, which placed the Puerto Princesa Underground River on the global tourism map, is now embroiled in a controversy involving millions of dollars in allegedly “surprise" fees.

        Maldives and Indonesia withdrew their respective entries from the contest and accused organizers of forcing them to pay “surprise" fees of up to $500,000 or P21.6 million, the United Kingdom’s “The Guardian" reported.

        In e-mail to GMA News Online, New7Wonders Foundation spokesperson Eamonn Fitzgerald denounced the allegations as baseless. “The key word here is ‘allegedly,’" he pointed out.

        Fitzgerald also directed readers to an opinion piece he wrote for the Maldives news outlet “Minivan News," wherein he noted that New7Wonders “got caught up in the politics of both countries.

        Sought for comment, Interior and Local Government Secretary Jesse Robredo, who led the task force campaigning for the Palawan tourist attraction, said the allegations are “ridiculous."

        “No funds for it, nor will [we] be willing to raise it just to join [the] contest, especially if it’s ‘a few million dollars,’" Robredo said in a text message to GMA News Online.

        Last Saturday, the Zurich-based foundation announced that the Puerto Princesa Underground River in Palawan was voted one of the New Seven Wonders of Nature, based on the provisional voting results via text messaging and the Internet.

        'Unexpected demands for money'

        As early as last May, the allegations against the New7Wonders Foundation surfaced in Maldives after the country’s State Minister for Tourism Thoyyib Mohamed announced that Maldives was withdrawing from the contest “because of the unexpected demands for large sums of money from the New7Wonders organizers."

        “Requests have so far included ‘sponsorship fees’ (‘platinum’ at $350,000, or two ‘gold’ at $210,000 each), and funding of a ‘World Tour’ event whereby Maldives would pay for a delegation of people to visit the country, provide hot air balloon rides, press trips, flights, accommodation, and communications," Maldives news outlet “Minivan News" reported last May.

        Months later, the Indonesian government also withdrew its entry, Komodo National Park, and questioned the organizers’ credibility, “The Jakarta Post" reported.

        The Indonesian news agency said disagreements stemmed from supposedly earlier statements by the New7Wonders Foundation that it might drop Komodo National Park from its list of finalists “after the government declined to pay a $10-million licensing fee and $35-million declaration fee to host a ceremony declaring the contest’s winners."

        New status to boost tourism

        In any case, the Philippine government expects the new status of the Puerto Princesa Underground River to boost tourism, with President Aquino himself having spearheaded the campaign.

        Known for its unique and outstanding scientific, biological, and geological features, the river became was declared a World Heritage Site by the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization or UNESCO in December 1999.

        It was also named a National Geological Monument in December 2003. — VS, GMA News
