Beauty Pageant Trend

      September 12, 2011 in Sao Paulo, Brazil when Miss Universe 2011 was held.  Winner was Miss Angola, but what was noteworthy is the Philippine bet Miss Shamcey Supsup who was proclaimed 3rd runner-up.

Just yesterday Miss International 2011 and Miss World 2011 was held almost simultaneously in Chengdu, China and London, UK, respectively.  Miss Philippine bet Dianne Necio was People's Choice Awardee and one of the top 15 in Miss International, while Gwendoline Ruais emerged as the 1st runner-up in Miss World.  Here's the final Q &A and be the judge:

          

   We only wait for one major pageant, the Miss Earth 2011 in Bangkok, Thailand on December 3.  Will Miss Philippines finally win the most coveted title, crown and honors?  Here's a peek on the top 10 Asian candidates, Miss Philippines is number 2.

My Background

I finished Computer Engineering twenty years ago.  Immediately I entered the academe as Instructor and stayed there since then.  While working, I pursued graduate studies in Computer Science and information Technology, therefore my life is almost always governed by bits and nibbles and bytes.  


But joking aside, I find IT to be an endless quest of knowledge and many more advanced gadgets will soon invade our homes and offices.  With this realization, I pursue another field: Management.  Though it seems to be not aligned with IT on the first thought, but dissecting closely it is even higher than my field.  


Why?  Because Management always deal with CHOICES and TRENDS.  Every gadget that emerges in the market will always have a counterpart, competing in functionality, portability and even affordability.  And there will be forecast of what's going to be next or what new functions will be added to the next versions, etc.  That scenario is what we call trending and if we find a product to suit our needs now and in years to come, we make a choice to buy.  These two terms are not mutually exclusive, in fact they are used by higher management in resource allocation.  


So from here on, I will express my honest opinion, in which I think is not authoritative but just an expression of a not so knowledgeable being in the planet, exposing both sides of the coin, so to speak, to make an intelligent choice that might be the trend in the next weeks, months or even years.  Thanks so much and keep on reading on..
