Archaelogists Unearthed World's Oldest Gay Caveman Near Prague

         Kamila Remisova Vesinova and her team of researchers from the Czech Archeological Society believe they have unearthed the remains of an early homosexual man. The remains date from around 2900-2500 B.C., on the outskirts of Prague.
        That claim stems from the fact the 5,000-year-old skeleton was buried in a manner reserved for women in the Corded Ware culture: its head was pointed east rather than west, and its remains were surrounded by domestic jugs rather than by hammers, flint knives and weapons that typically accompany male remains. (Should you eat like a caveman?)
       "From history and ethnology, we know that people from this period took funeral rites very seriously so it is highly unlikely that this positioning was a mistake," Vesinova said at a press conference. "Far more likely is that he was a man with a different sexual orientation, homosexual or transsexual."
       Katerina Semradova, another member of the team, admitted there have been other instances of men being buried with implements reserved for women and vice versa. Her colleagues previously unearthed a female warrior from the Mesolithic period who was buried in the fashion of a man. And she noted that latter-day male Siberian shamans or witch doctors were buried with ornate funeral accessories, like jewels, to reflect their elevated position in society.
       But those burials reflected the dead's position in society, not their sexuality. "This later discovery was neither [a warrior nor a witch doctor], leading us to believe the man was probably homosexual or transsexual."

I Hate Some Of The Final Questions At Binibining Pilipinas 2011

I love the ladies answers but I hate some of the questions mostly from ambassadors and ambassador's wife they're too tacky and mediocre they are already considered obsolete questions in beauty pageants. Most impressive questions asked about current events were asked by Charlemagne Yu, Palace Spokesperson Edwin Lacierda and magazine editor Ernie Lopez. We should write and petition MU org. and Mr. Trump to take away the MU franchise from Stella Marquez and give it to a Filipino! Actually there is already a facebook page asking for Stella Marquez Resignation! I know Miss Stella Marquez will be gracious and generous enough to hand over the Binibining Pilipinas Organization, which sends representative to Miss Universe, to interested Filipinos.

Binibining Pilipinas 2011 Universe - Shamcey Supsup

Binibining Pilipinas 2011 Tourism Queen International - Isabella Manjon

Binibining Pilipinas 2011 International - Dianne Necio

(Araneta Coliseum, Quezon City) General Santos City-born Shamcey Supsup, the 2010 architecture board topnotcher, was named the 2011 Binibining Pilipinas Universe during the pageant coronation night on Sunday, April 10 at the Araneta Coliseum.
         A surprised yet ecstatic Shamcey, who also graduated magna cum laude from the University of the Philippines Diliman, will represent the country in the Miss Universe Pageant in Sao Paolo, Brazil.
         "I still can't believe it. Parang panaginip. Kanina nung nag announce na sabi ko it's God's will. If it's for you, it's for you. You just have to believe it," Shamcey said in an interview after the pageant. "Whatever happens, it happens for a reason and God has a plan for every one of us... Ang dami talagang magaganda. Ang dami talagang magagaling. Feeling ko the judges had a hard time choosing the winner for the year."
          Asked if she's now feeling the pressure of accomplishing the feat of Venus Raj, who won fourth runner up in the Miss Universe pageant in Las Vegas last year, Shamcey said:
          "I'm not pressured at all kasi I believe I was here for a reason and whatever my destiny is, I'll do my best. I'm just gonna give it my all and I hope that whatever I'm gonna do there [Brazil] yun ang hinahanap nila at kung para talaga sa 'yo para talaga sa 'yo," Shamcey said.
          Shamcey bested 39 other candidates in the pageant. Aside from winning the major title, she also won three special awards: Miss Cream Silk, Ambassador of Philippine Airlines, and Miss Talent.
Meanwhile, Iriga native Dianne Necio bagged the Binibining Pilipinas International title and Pasig City resident Isabella Manjon was crowned Binibining Pilipinas Tourism.
          For Dianne, it is a dream come true after winning the first runner up plum last year."Last year, I joined and I ended up as first runner up and it was talagang pinagdasal ko. Kanina I'm not expecting anything. Sabi ko lang, 'Lord ibigay mo kung ano yung gusto mo ibigay.' So I'm just thankful na I will have the chance to compete in an international title... Talagang pag di mo tinigilan yung dream mo, maaabot mo siya and keep on praying," Dianne said in an interview.
          Isabella, on the other hand, could not contain her joy in winning the Tourism crown. "I'm so overwhelmed right now. Sobrang I feel blank. I'm so happy," she said.
         Other winners are First Runner Up Janine Tugonon and Second Runner Up Mary Jean Lastimosa.
         Rouding up the 15 semifinalists were: Candidate No. 6 Patricia Tumulak, Candidate No. 8 Marie Kristina May Marasigan, Candidate No. 11 Diana Arevalo, Candidate No. 13 Queenierich Rehman, Candidate No. 16 Sabrinne Al-Tawil, Candidate No. 19 Wendy Lucas, Candidate No. 23 Luzelle Felipe, Candidate No. 30 Kathleen Subijano, Candidate No. 32 Jenn Roe Gubat and Candidate No. 37 Sarah Clenci.

This year's special award winners are:

Manila Bulletin Reader's Choice: Luzelle Felipe
Miss Cream Silk: Shamcey Supsup
Ambassador, Philippines Air Lines: Shamcey Supsup
Miss Talent: Shamcey Supsup
 

            I am very happy with the winning of Shamcey Supsup and Isabella Manjon and actually I am teary eyed by what had transpired. First from the impressive performance of the ladies, second to the beauties who have gone by and most especially fitting tributes to Maria Venus Raj, Krista Kleiner and Czarina Gatbonton. But most of all I am very happy for Shamcey Supsup competing for Miss Universe, for Isabella Manjon who will compete in Miss Tourism Queen International but I thought Manjon could've place better competing in Miss International but still happy for her and finally for Dianne Necio finally after competing again she finally got a title she wants and compete in Miss International. Although her answer last night were less potent and powerful than her answer a year earlier and the other top 15 semifinalists answers were more eloquent, persuasive and strong that deserves her spot, I am still happy for her and hopes three of them will prepare well for their respective competitions. For the runners up, Tugonon and Lastimosa congratulations as well and if you want a title please do compete next year or other national pageant competitions like Miss World Philippines and Miss Earth Philippines.I am happy as well for special award winners like Samantha Purvor and Angelia Ong, truly a memorable evening for them. For the rest, either who made it in the top 15 semifinalists or missed the cut most especially my favorites, please please please grant my favor to join again next year in the Binibining Pilipinas or join other other national pageant competitions like Miss World Philippines and Miss Earth Philippines because you deserves to compete internationally. If needed, I will ask a battalion of pageant followers to sign petitions for these lovely ladies to join the national pageant sending delegates internationally. If still not convince I will push these lovely ladies LITERALLY to force them to join. Really have mercy ladies, please do join next year or other beauty pageants! Congratulations to all the winners, may you make our dear country Philippines proud and bring home the crown and to all who made this event astounding successful and a moment to last a lifetime, thank you very much! Until the next beauty pageant this year and succeeding years to come. May a fruitful blessing from God will be upon us!
