TOO CLOSE FOR COMFORT. A China Coast Guard ship gets 'dangerously close' – as the Philippine Coast Guard puts it – to a much smaller PCG vessel in the waters near Ayungin (Second Thomas) Shoal in the West Philippine Sea, in this photo taken on June 30, 2023. Photo courtesy of PCG MANILA, Philippines — The Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) on Friday disclosed that Chinese fishing vessels were swarming around Iroquois Reef and Sabina Shoal within the country's exclusive economic zone.

For Filipinos, Jollibee is more than just a food chain. It is a paragon of Philippine flavor.

Or better yet: And? Navigating the different permutations of jolly delights is a worthwhile task for even the most skilled number cruncher.

Combining two types of heart scan techniques could help doctors to detect the deadly heart condition hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) before symptoms and signs on conventional tests appear, according to a new study led by UCL researchers. The research, funded by the British Heart Foundation and published in the journal Circulation, opens the prospect of treating the condition at the earliest stages. Being able to detect HCM earlier than ever before will also assist trials investigating gene therapies and drug treatments aimed at stopping the disease developing in those at risk.
