Guys, Anna beat me to this one. But she failed to mention that you can click on the link she provided. When it opens up, click on &quot;contestants&quot; then Miss Guam. 

After you have feasted on her beauty, click on the video option and listen to her sweet voice. 

For you convenience here is the link again http://www.missuniverse.com

Written by News Release

Guam

Guam - Guam delegate Racine Manley is turning heads at the 58th Annual Miss Universe Competition and drawing support from a large  Bahamian fan base captivated by her island beauty.  
24-year-old Manley is competing against 83 other delegates for the coveted Miss Universe crown but is edging out other contestants with her charming personality and friendly, approachable nature.   The Dededo resident arrived in the Bahamas on August 1, 2009 and has already attracted the attention of pageant blogs, news media and pageant fans who anticipate her high placement at this year’s pageant. 

Guam Beauty Organization and National Director for Miss Universe Guam, Joyce Bamba said “We are quite proud of Racine’s progress and are pleased that the rest of the world can attest to the beauty and grace of our island women.  Racine espouses many of the qualities that we hold so dear on Guam and she has already represented our island well.  We should all be proud of her and I encourage everyone to vote for her online!” 
 

Manley is just part of an already strong showing of Asian contestants in this year’s pageant, which has particularly been dominated by Latin and European countries who have garnered the top spots in recent years. 

Each contestant from more than 80 countries around the world will be judged in three categories: swimsuit, evening gown and interview as they vie for the title of Miss Universe 2009.  Votes for each delegate may be cast online at the Miss Universe official website at www.missuniverse.com  where fans may also rate photos and video segments of the respective candidates.

=====================
 
 
 Subj: Attention: Wine Lovers
 
For all you wine lovers out there:

Maybe this confirms what is often said about &quot;wine snobbery.&quot;
 
*Wal-Mart Wine

Wal-Mart announced that, sometime in 2009, it will begin offering customers a new discount item ... Wal-Mart&#039;s own brand of wine.

The world&#039;s largest retail chain is rumored to be teaming up with Ernest &amp; Julio Gallo Winery of California to produce the spirits at an affordable price -- in the $2 to $5 range.

Wine connoisseurs may not be inclined to put a bottle of the Wal-Mart brand into their shopping carts, but &quot;There is a market for inexpensive wine.&quot; said Kathy Micken, professor of marketing at University of Arkansas, Bentonville.  &quot;However, branding will be very important. &quot;

Customer surveys were conducted to determine the most attractive name for the Wal-Mart wine brand.

The top surveyed names in order of popularity were:

Chateau Traileur Parc
White Trashfindel
Big Red Gulp
World Championship Riesling
NASCARbernet
Chef Boyardeaux
Peanut Noir
I Can&#039;t Believe it&#039;s not Vinegar
Grape Expectations
Nasti Spumante


The beauty of Wal-Mart wine is that it can be served with either white meat (Possum) or red meat (Squirrel).

P.S. Don&#039;t bother writing back that this is a hoax.  I know possum is not a white meat.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Terry,

It is not the woman&#039;s problem with how a man reacts to how they dress. No woman deserves to be harassed or raped because of how she dresses.  That is something men have been using to cower women who are harassed or assaulted by them into keeping their mouths shut. 

You encourage that concept when you argue that how a woman dresses is more important that what she says.  Your statement is more harmful to young girls than any attire Michelle may choose to wear on her blog. 

Rethink your reasons for your argument. Maybe you will find logic in an opinion of your own.

		<description><![CDATA[Terry, young girls take themselves seriously when given a reason to be proud to be a female.  Michelle does just that. My daughters referred me to the site. 

I referred my sisters and they referred their daughters to the site.  Michelle concentrates of breaking the stereotypes that men have been forcing on women for decades.  One of them being how a woman should dress. 

I thank you very much to keep your god&#039;s opinions to yourself. Michelle welcomes all opinions. If you genuinely believe you women should dress more modestly, that is an opinion welcomed by Michelle, but you claiming that you speak for young girls who are being hurt by how Michelle dresses on her blog is ludicrous.
