Aging is one of those unavoidable things in life—like taxes and the occasional embarrassing photo from the past popping up. And when it comes to your skin, time eventually leaves its mark. Some changes are written in your DNA. This is what doctors call intrinsic aging—the natural process that leads to thinner skin, fine lines, dryness, and a loss of that plump, youthful glow.

But here’s the good news: not all skin aging is out of your control. A big part of how your skin looks as you get older depends on your environment and daily habits. This is called extrinsic aging, and it’s the kind you can influence.

Dermatologists say there are clear, proven ways to slow down premature skin aging. Some are as simple as wearing a hat. Others require looking a little more closely at your lifestyle. All of them can help your skin stay healthier, smoother, and more vibrant for longer. Continue reading 11 Smart Ways to Slow Down Premature Skin Aging →

Allianz Life Confirms Major Data Breach Affecting Majority of U.S. Customers

Allianz Life Insurance Company of North America has confirmed a significant data breach that compromised the personal information of the majority of its 1.4 million U.S. customers, along with financial professionals and select employees.

According to Allianz Life, the attackers used a social engineering technique to access personally identifiable information (PII). While the company emphasized that its own internal systems were not breached, the scale and sensitivity of the data accessed have raised serious concerns.

“We took immediate action to contain and mitigate the issue and notified the FBI,” Allianz Life said in an official statement. The company has also reported the incident to several other regulatory authorities, including the Maine Attorney General’s Office.

PayPal Enables U.S. Merchants to Accept Over 100 Cryptocurrencies, Including Bitcoin, Ethereum—and Even Fartcoin

PayPal has significantly expanded its crypto payment capabilities, now allowing small and medium-sized businesses in the U.S. to accept over 100 digital assets as payment. The update includes major cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH), as well as more novel tokens such as the Trump-themed TRUMP memecoin and the humorously named Fartcoin.

The new functionality is now available to all merchants using PayPal’s online payment platform, the company confirmed today. As part of the rollout, PayPal is offering a promotional transaction fee of 0.99% for the first year, with a flat 1.5% fee applying thereafter—still lower than the average 1.57% U.S. merchants paid for credit card transactions in 2024, according to the Nilson Report.

Nepal Quietly Becomes a Global Leader in EV Adoption, Surpassing 75% Market Share

While global attention often gravitates toward electric vehicle adoption in the U.S., Europe, and China, the small Himalayan nation of Nepal has quietly staged one of the most dramatic electric transitions in the world. According to a new report from The New York Times, 76% of all new passenger vehicles and 50% of light commercial vehicles sold in Nepal over the past year were electric—a figure nearly four times the global average.

The reasons for Nepal’s rapid electrification are as surprising as they are strategic. Following a 2015 fuel crisis with India, Nepal accelerated development of its hydropower infrastructure, capitalizing on the rivers that flow from the Himalayas. Today, nearly all of the country’s electricity is clean, domestic, and renewable, giving Nepal a rare energy advantage in the region.

Paired with aggressive import tax reforms—with EVs taxed as low as 40%, compared to 180% for internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles—EVs have become not only cleaner but also cheaper. In many cases, an electric Hyundai SUV now costs less than its gasoline equivalent. Continue reading Nepal Quietly Becomes a Global Leader in EV Adoption, Surpassing 75% Market Share →
