Survivor Season 25 named "Survivor 25 : Philippines"
'
MANILA, Philippines- In a 1-minute-20-second video, "Survivor: Philippines" has been officially unveiled. Three mystery contestants from previous episodes will return to the special 25th season shot entirely in the Caramoan, Camarines Sur.
In the preview video, Survivor host Jeff Probst calls the Philippines "one of our most treacherous locations yet."
"Here, thousands of islands are scattered over the Southeast Asian Sea hide a dark and sinister secret," Probst says, "The waters are teeming with ravenous sharks and the land provides no refuge. Deadly snakes rule the jungles and furious storms break even the strongest spirits."
There will be three "tribes" at the start of the season. As per Survivor tradition, they will carry indigenous names. The "Survivor: Philippines" tribes will be: "Matsing" (Monkey), "Tandang" (Rooster) and "Kalabaw" (Water Buffalo).
Manny Pacquaio vs US Pres. Barack Obama on Same Sex Marriage
MANILA - US President Barack Obama's backing of same-sex marriage has called out a heavyweight opponent: Philippine congressman and world boxing champion, Manny Pacquiao.
In an interview with Examiner.com, in his Los Angeles home last week, the WBO welterweight champion stressed: "God's words first."
He also said people should "just believe" what the Bible says.
"God only expects man and woman to be together and to be legally married, only if they so are in love with each other," the Examiner quoted Pacquiao. "It should not be of the same sex so as to adulterate the altar of matrimony, like in the days of Sodom and Gomorrah of Old."
He also said that the US should set a tone on morality for other nations to follow.
Pacquiao said blocking the legalization of same-sex marriage should begin in the "high offices" of the US government themselves.
On the same day as his interview, Pacquiao participated in a Bible study session. He recently turned his back on gambling and drinking, and rekindled his faith.
After his June 9 bout with American Timothy Bradley in Las Vegas, he plans to hold a preaching session "open to all religions."
Pacquiao is also known for his stance against a Reproductive Health Bill in the Philippines.

MVP to buy 'Sacramento Kings' ?; Will meet NBA Commissioner David Stern to talk about potential deal
Filipino tycoon Manuel V. Pangilinan and 'MVP Sports Foundation' Executive Director Chot Reyes will be meeting with NBA commissioner David Stern to discuss a potential deal for the Sacramento Kings, a highly-placed source told InterAKTV on Thursday.
Pangilinan, who bankrolls Talk ‘N Text and Meralco in the PBA and serves as President of the Samahang Basketbol ng Pilipinas, has been linked to the Kings in the past. Rumors of his interest in the NBA franchise began in April last year, when the team was facing questions about its future in Sacramento. The Maloof family, however, denied interest in selling the franchise.
In March, the city announced that it had come to an agreement with the Kings owners and the NBA on a tentative deal that would provide for the construction on a new arena for the squad. In April, however, the Maloofs announced that it was backing out of the deal, before Sacramento Mayor Kevin Johnson announced that talks with the Kings owner were over, citing “irreconcilable” differences.
“The differences are too far apart. They could not be really overcome. We felt that this fair deal was something everyone was willing to agree to. But the economics for them was difficult,” Johnson told USA Today last month.
