ISTANBUL — Hollywood star Angelina Jolie has arrived in Turkey to visit Syrian refugees in her role as special envoy for the U.N. refugee agency. Turkey’s Anadolu news agency says Jolie and UNHCR chief Antonio Guterres are expected to visit refugee camps along the border between Turkey and Syria on Thursday. Reports say Jolie will later travel to Ankara, the Turkish capital, for talks with officials who are handling the humanitarian crisis. Turkey hosts about 80,000 Syrians who have fled the 18-month conflict in their country. Earlier this week, Jolie and Guterres visited Syrian refugees in Jordan, which is also sheltering those who have fled the civil war in neighboring Syria.

People said the list was compiled after soliciting input from the celebrity magazine’s 42 million readers, its editors and fashion bloggers. While Oscar-winner Paltrow won the best dressed title, fashion icon Kate Middleton - formally known as the Duchess of Cambridge - was named the woman with the best classic style. Paltrow’s stylist, Elizabeth Saltzman, told People that the actress was not a slave to trends. “She doesn’t do fringe. She has a uniform. It’s simple, not overdone,” Saltzman said. Emma Stone, the 23-year-old star of “The Amazing Spider-Man” and “The Help,” was chosen as having the best red carpet style, while singer Rihanna was praised for taking the most risks in her fashion choices.

SAN FRANCISCO - Apple Inc’s new iPhone goes on sale on Friday with a bigger screen and 4G wireless technology, as the company seeks to safeguard its edge over rivals like Samsung Electronics Co Ltd and Google Inc. The iPhone 5 fulfilled many of the expectations laid out by gadget geeks and technology analysts ahead of its Wednesday unveiling but offered few surprises to give Apple shares -- already near record highs -- another major kick. “There is not a wow factor because everything you saw today is evolutionary. I do think they did enough to satisfy,” said Michael Yoshikami, chief executive of wealth management
company Destination Wealth Management. Other industry analysts speculated about what else was in Apple’s product pipeline ahead of the crucial yearend holiday season, especially since the company stayed mum about an oft-rumored TV device or a smaller iPad. The consumer electronics giant that in 2010 popularized tablet computing with the iPad has given no hints on whether it plans a smaller version to match cheaper tablets from the likes of Google or Amazon.com Inc. “We would really like to see the iPad Mini in the product offering for the all-important holiday quarter. They still have time,” said Channing Smith, co-manager of the Capital Advisors Growth Fund. “As soon as we see that,
we will have more conviction about the stock heading into the final quarter.” Apple shares ended the day up 1.4 percent at $669.79. The latest iPhone comes as Apple faces competition beyond current key competitors Samsung and Google. Late entrant Microsoft Corp is now trying to push its Windows Phone 8 operating system as an alternative to Apple and Android, the most-used smartphone operating system in the world. Analysts have forecast sales of 10 million to 12 million of the new iPhones in this month alone. Apple Chief Executive Tim Cook kicked off the event in San Francisco’s Yerba Buena Center but it was marketing chief Phil Schiller who introduced the iPhone 5 and took the audience through the new phone’s features.

It was revealed by a banking and SMEs observer from Bali, I Gusti Viraguna Bagoes Oka when asked for his confirmation on Wednesday (Sep 13). Viraguna assessed the recent economic growth of Bali was quite prominent in the field of property and construction of a bridge spending a large amount of fund. Not to mention the expansion of the Ngurah Rai Airport worth over IDR 3 trillion funded through the state budget was merely in conjunction with the implementation of APEC. It was a non-bankable speculative condition. “In the short-term, the economy of Bali in the context of growth and broad sense will continue to grow. It is supported by the coming of unstoppable foreign investment coupled with the invasion of franchise businesses of the United States and other countries to Indonesia,” he said. He said based on the notes of the Investment Coordinating Board (BKPM) 2012, the number of franchisors coming to Indonesia would reach over 100 companies. This condition would also trigger the growth of national economy, including Bali. “Nevertheless, the economic growth without being accompanied with the economic stability will result in the widening poverty gap and decreasing purchasing power,” he said. According to him, the restricted natural resources of Indonesia inefficiently and improperly managed by the government could likely threaten the distribution or domestic needs. The situation was feared to affect the condition or would cause a pressure on the economy and banking sector in Bali. Similar opinion was also expressed by Branch Manager of QNB Kesawan Denpasar, I Ketut Sirta. So far, the economic and banking condition in Bali remained very positive. European crisis was predicted to affect the economy and banking sector of Bali. “However, the impact caused will be very small. By all means, the impact incurred is the slowing down of export sector of Bali,” he said. (kmb27)
