Having become a big believer in foldables, I came into this review with high expectations, which the Find N2 Flip met and even exceeded. The compact clamshell design reminiscent of a more retro flip phone has always been the unique selling point for a device like this, and Oppo has found a way to improve on the formula. Open-and-shut case The Find N2 Flip's hinge is probably the smoothest on the market, making for a very satisfying feeling when opening and closing the device. The crease that's characteristically present on foldable devices is almost gone – some may even mistake the device for a traditional slab smartphone when open.

PERIKATAN Nasional (PN) and PAS said they want to use their own National Day logo and theme in the four states under his administration. Yesterday (Aug 19), PN Youth launched the official PN National Day logo and theme to be used in the PN leadership's speech, especially at the Youth level and the party under the umbrella of the opposition bloc. While it could have been a simple matter of internal party politics, the issue has blown out of control after PN Youth head Ahmad Fadhli Shaari presented the logo on social media.

People hold a portrait of Chilean singer Victor Jara during his three-day funeral in Santiago on Dec. 5, 2009, six months after his remains—secretly buried for 36 years after his death by agents of Augusto Pinochet's dictatorship (1973-1990)—were exhumed following a court order as part of an investigation on his death. Chile's Supreme Court on Aug. 28, 2023, sentenced seven former officers of the Chilean Army to between 8 and 25 years in prison for the kidnapping and murder of the singer-songwriter a few days after Augusto Pinochet's coup d'état that overthrew socialist Salvador Allende on Sept.

Wall Street's main indexes fell on Wednesday as talks between the White House and Republican representatives on raising the debt ceiling dragged on, while investors awaited minutes from the Federal Reserve's last meeting. The lack of progress on raising the US government's US$31.4 trillion debt limit ahead of the June 1 deadline, with several rounds of inconclusive talks, has kept investors on edge as the risk of an unprecedented default looms large. Negotiators for Democratic President Joe Biden and top congressional Republican Kevin McCarthy reconvened for another round of discussions on Wednesday.
