Olive Young's 2026 sales to foreign customers top $727 mil. by Aug.

Foreign customers' purchases at health and beauty retailer CJ Olive Young surpassed 1 trillion won ($727.5 million) at its domestic stores in the first eight months of this year, reaching the milestone three months earlier than last year, while also seeing international visitors at its locations beyond Seoul. CJ Olive Young said Monday that cumulative purchases by foreign customers at its offline stores from January to August exceeded 1 trillion won, reaching the milestone earlier than last year when it achieved equivalent sales in November. The company recorded 11.01 million transactions by foreign customers during the period, or roughly one transaction every 0.9 seconds during store operating hours. The development underscores how K-beauty retailers are increasingly becoming part of tourism infrastructure, rather than simply a shopping stop in Seoul’s popular districts. Foreign customers accounted for 33 percent of Olive Young’s total offline store sales as of August, up from 2 percent in 2022, according to the company.

'He Isn't A Terrorist' Yash's Mother Reacts To Allu Aravind’s 'Who Was Yash Before KGF’ Remark

Yash’s Toxic: A Fairy Tale For Grown-Ups has continued its strong theatrical run despite receiving a divided response from audiences and critics. The film has reportedly moved past the box-office collections of titles such as Drishyam, Jana Nayagan and Karuppu. At the same time, Geetu Mohandas’ action drama has attracted criticism for its graphic violence and sexual content.Amid the discussions surrounding Toxic, Yash’s mother, Pushpa Arunkumar, has seemingly revisited an old controversy involving Telugu producer Allu Aravind. Without directly taking his name, she spoke about her son’s journey in the film industry and questioned why anyone would undermine his achievements when they were built through years of perseverance. © Hombale FilmsYash's Mother Defends Her Son On Allu Aravind's CommentAt a recent press interaction, Pushpa emphasised that Yash had already established himself in Kannada cinema before KGF transformed him into a pan-India star. She pointed out that his success was not the result of family wealth or industry privilege but came from his own efforts. “Before KGF, Yash delivered five back-to-back hits. So, if he is an ordinary person, a nobody as you claim, then why are you (the person concerned) threatened? He's not a terrorist. There is no need to ask who he was before KGF; he had delivered good films before it. Moreover, he was not born into wealth, unlike a few others. He is the son of a bus driver who rose to the top on his own. As a mother, I am proud of him.” Pushpa further stressed that Yash’s rise did not happen overnight. His years of work in the Kannada film industry had already given him a substantial fan following before KGF turned him into one of the biggest names in Indian cinema.The comments are being linked to remarks made by veteran producer Allu Aravind in 2023, when he questioned Yash’s identity and standing in the industry before the KGF franchise. Aravind also attributed part of the franchise’s success to its enormous scale and production values. What Did Yash Say About Ally Aravind?Yash himself recently addressed the controversy on Aap Ki Adalat. When asked about the “Who was Yash before KGF?” remark, he stressed that a film’s success is never the achievement of one individual. “I believe a film does not belong only to the producer. Many people work on a film, but the actor often gets most of the credit. Whether it is a supporting actor, writer or any other member of the team, everyone works hard. But if an actor cannot carry what has been created for him, the film may not work,” he said.Meanwhile, Yash's latest film Toxic has crossed ₹250 crore mark worldwide.

4 devious email scams hitting inboxes right now, and how to spot them

For the last decade, email scams have run rampant on the internet. And corporate IT departments have handed out the exact same advice like clockwork: Look for bad grammar, hover over links, and turn on two-factor authentication. But those recommendations have fallen behind the times. Thanks to AI and clever architectural work-arounds, today’s email scams don’t look like scams. They don’t contain spelling errors. And in many cases, they don’t even care if you have 2FA enabled. Here’s a handful of new tricks flooding inboxes right now, how they work, and how to stay ahead of them. 1. QR code mobile bypass (“Quishing”) You open an email claiming your Microsoft 365 password is about to expire, or that an urgent HR document needs a DocuSign signature. But instead of a clickable link, there’s a crisp graphic with a QR code asking you to scan with your phone’s camera to verify your identity. The ruse is particularly sneaky. Your work laptop is heavily guarded by corporate firewalls and link-checkers. The moment you pull out your phone and scan that code, you leave that protected umbrella entirely, loading a malicious page on a personal mobile browser with zero security filters. If an unexpected email asks you to scan a code on your personal device to handle workplace credentials, treat it like a live grenade. 2. “ClickFix” clipboard trap This one hits you with a psychological trick right when you’re trying to be productive . You click a notification email to open a document, but the web page freezes with an official-looking error pop-up claiming a rendering error occurred. It kindly asks you to press Win + R, paste a provided verification code into your Windows Run prompt, and hit Enter. There’s no software error. The scammer tricked you into copying malicious code onto your clipboard and manually executing it in your operating system terminal. Never paste text from a browser into your computer’s command terminal just because a website asked you to. Browsers don’t need system-level commands to display a file. 3. Adversary-in-the-Middle login cloning Most people assume two-factor authentication makes login pages bulletproof. But Adversary-in-the-Middle attacks break that assumption wide open. An email directs you to a portal that looks identical to your company’s login screen. You type in your username, password, and even the six-digit code from your authenticator app. This fake login page acts like a sneaky middleman standing between you and the real website. When you enter your password and two-factor code, the middleman passes them along to the actual site in real time. Once the real site confirms your info and unlocks your account, the scammer snatches the session cookie that the website handed back, giving him full, instant access to your account as if he were sitting at your keyboard. In other words, your 2FA code worked, it just worked for the attacker. Before typing your credentials anywhere, always look closely at the URL address bar to verify the domain name is legitimate. 4. Fake (but real) invoices One of the hardest scams to filter is the one sent from a legitimate tech company. With this scam, you receive an official invoice notification from QuickBooks, PayPal , or Google Workspace containing your name, an order number, and a phone number to call if you suspect fraud. Spam filters pass these straight into your primary inbox, because the email actually came from Intuit or Google . Attackers simply set up free business accounts on these platforms and abuse their built-in invoicing tools to blast out scam messages. If an invoice note contains a suspicious support phone number, never call it. Always log in to your account directly through the official website to check your billing history first.

These Are The World's Safest (And Least Safe) Cities

These Are The World's Safest (And Least Safe) Cities Doha ranks as the safest major city in the world in 2026, while Caracas sits at the opposite end of the ranking. This graphic, via Visual Capitalist's Dorothy Neufeld, compares the world’s safest and least safe major cities using Numbeo’s 2026 Safety Index . Scores are based on five years of user submissions covering perceptions of crime, personal safety, property crime, and violent crime. They do not measure official crime rates or exposure to geopolitical conflict. The Cities With the Highest Perceived Safety Here are the 10 highest-scoring major cities with populations of two million or more. Rank Most Safe Cities Country Overall Score (0-100) 1 🇶🇦 Doha Qatar 84.6 2 🇦🇪 Dubai UAE 83.8 3 🇹🇼 Taipei Taiwan 83.4 4 🇭🇰 Hong Kong SAR China 78.2 5 🇸🇬 Singapore Singapore 77.7 6 🇯🇵 Tokyo Japan 75.9 7 🇨🇳 Shenzhen China 75.5 8 🇸🇦 Riyadh Saudi Arabia 75.4 9 🇸🇦 Jeddah Saudi Arabia 75.1 10 🇰🇷 Seoul South Korea 74.6 Four of the top 10 cities are in the Middle East, including two in Saudi Arabia: Riyadh and Jeddah. Gallup’s latest Global Safety Report reinforces the pattern. Singapore had the world’s highest share of adults who said they felt safe walking alone at night, at 98%, followed by Saudi Arabia at 93% and the UAE at 90%. Asia dominates the rest of the top 10. Outside the Middle East, every city represented is in East or Southeast Asia, while European cities are notably absent despite routinely leading global livability rankings . The Cities With the Lowest Perceived Safety At the opposite end of the index, the 10 lowest-scoring cities are concentrated in just two regions. Rank Least Safe Cities Country Overall Score (0-100) 1 🇻🇪 Caracas Venezuela 18.5 2 🇿🇦 Johannesburg South Africa 19.2 3 🇿🇦 Durban South Africa 19.5 4 🇧🇷 Salvador Brazil 23.5 5 🇧🇷 Fortaleza Brazil 24.1 6 🇧🇷 Rio de Janeiro Brazil 24.6 7 🇧🇷 Recife Brazil 25.0 8 🇪🇨 Guayaquil Ecuador 25.3 9 🇿🇦 Cape Town South Africa 26.4 10 🇨🇴 Cali Colombia 29.1 The bottom of the ranking is heavily concentrated by country. Brazil accounts for four of the 10 cities, while South Africa accounts for three, including Johannesburg and Durban. South Africa also has one of the world’s highest homicide rates . Gallup data show a similar geographic pattern. Of the 10 countries where people felt least safe walking alone at night, nine were in sub-Saharan Africa or Latin America. South Africa ranked lowest globally, with just 33% of adults saying they felt safe walking alone at night. Guayaquil’s low ranking also comes amid a sharp rise in violence. Guayas province, where the city is located, recorded 4,106 homicides in 2025, the most of any province in Ecuador and up 26.5% from 2024.

Rams poke fun at Miami Heat LeBron gaffe before Aaron Donald announcement - ESPN

A minute before announcing the return of Aaron Donald on X, the Los Angeles Rams seemingly poked fun at an unlikely team: the Miami Heat. Los Angeles prepared to share the news that Donald would officially be unretiring and returning to the team on a one-year, $20 million deal with incentives. But it first had to reference a gaffe by the Heat on July 21. While awaiting the pending free agency decision by LeBron James, Miami accidentally posted a scheduled live stream link titled «LeBron James Introductory Press Conference.» It was set for July 27 on its YouTube channel. A team spokesperson later told ESPN's Shams Charania that the social media department was preparing for James' news and accidentally posted the link.

Daisy Chain Fields review – Olivia Rodrigo’s women-led festival is electric amid extreme heat

Great Park, Irvine, California Performances from Rodrigo, Stevie Nicks, Chappell Roan and Sarah McLachlan raise $20m for charity yet are marred by poor planning for heatwave Shortly after singing the closing notes of her indie pop gem LES Artistes on Saturday afternoon, Santigold gazes out at the sweat-laced crowd at the Daisy Chain Fields festival – a benefit concert hosted by Olivia Rodrigo for charities focused on women and girls – in disbelief. “I can’t believe she pulled this shit off!” Santigold cries into the microphone, beaming. The inaugural festival, in Irvine, California’s Great Park, has drawn in 45,000 people to see artists as varied as the legendary punk agitators Bikini Kill , kicky pop phenom Chappell Roan and kinetic superstar rapper Doechii , all of whom agreed to perform for free; Rodrigo herself closes out the night with a career-spanning setlist and starry guest appearances. The festival raised $10m to be distributed evenly among 10 non-profits, including Baby2Baby, which distributes supplies to children and parents in need, and the National Women’s Law Center. Later that night, Melinda French Gates joins Rodrigo on stage and matches the fundraising, bringing the donated total to $20m. Continue reading...

Gaza families keep vigil as rodents and pests infest displacement camps

article author: ANAN TELLO Sun, 2026-08-30 22:32 LONDON: In Gaza’s tent camps, sleep has become a shift. Parents take turns through the night, not for warmth or safety from bombardment, but to watch for rats, scorpions and snakes. For thousands of displaced families, the alternative can be waking to find a child bitten — or worse. “Every summer, different kinds of pests appear,” said Maysa Yousef, an artist and mother of three in central Gaza. “This summer, we’re finding snakes and scorpions.” Rats, she said, have become especially difficult to contain.

Nepal after the floods: Which routes are open, how to trace travellers and who pays for disrupted trips? newsdrum_in

Nepal after the floods: Which routes are open, how to trace travellers and who pays for disrupted trips?

New Delhi: Four days after the devastating flash floods along the Nepal-Tibet border, the biggest mistake for travellers would be to treat the whole of Nepal as either “safe” or “closed”. The destruction is most severe along the Rasuwa-Rasuwagadhi-Gyirong corridor , a key private route used by Indian Kailash Mansarovar pilgrims. Kathmandu’s international airport remains operational, other parts of Nepal continue to receive travellers, and people have been evacuated to India through southern routes. But conditions remain highly fluid. Nepal’s disaster authority issued a fresh warning on Sunday after the flow in the Bhote Koshi rose again, asking rescue teams and people in Rasuwa, Nuwakot, Dhading and Chitwan to remain cautious. For anyone travelling in September, the question therefore has to be route-specific. Rasuwagadhi-Gyirong: Do not plan on this route The clearest answer concerns the Rasuwagadhi-Gyirong crossing. The August 26 flood destroyed the Friendship Bridge, badly damaged roads and devastated the Gyirong immigration area through which hundreds of Kailash pilgrims were travelling. Rescue teams reaching the site found the border infrastructure largely reduced to ruins. For practical purposes, travellers holding a Nepal-route Kailash booking should not assume that the normal Rasuwagadhi-Gyirong itinerary will operate unless their tour operator produces fresh written confirmation from the relevant Nepali and Chinese authorities. The official Kailash Mansarovar Yatra organised by India through Lipulekh Pass and Nathu La is different . Those routes do not pass through Nepal and were reported unaffected by the August 26 disaster. What about Tatopani-Kodari? The Tatopani-Kodari crossing is often mentioned as a possible alternative to Gyirong, but travellers should not simply reroute themselves there. The road to Tatopani reopened on August 24 after being blocked for around 40 days by an earlier landslide. Even then, local officials warned that the corridor would not operate smoothly until repairs around Liping were completed. After the latest flood, Nepal’s trekking industry asked authorities to consider alternative crossings including Tatopani, Korola and Hilsa for affected Kailash pilgrims. That is a request for official facilitation, not proof that every booked group can simply shift there. Chinese visas, Tibet permits, transport arrangements and group clearances are route-specific. For September Kailash travellers, an operator saying “we will use another border” is not enough. Ask for the exact crossing, current permit status and written confirmation that the Chinese side will accept the group . Kathmandu is accessible, but road travel remains unpredictable Tribhuvan International Airport in Kathmandu remains operational, and international flights continue to operate. There is no blanket shutdown of international air access to Nepal. That does not mean every onward road journey is normal. The Prithvi Highway, which links Kathmandu with Pokhara, Chitwan and western Nepal, was completely blocked at Krishnabhir on Sunday morning after a section subsided because of erosion by the Trishuli. Police later said traffic on the Kathmandu-Muglin-Narayangadh section had resumed after flood authorities assessed the immediate risk. That reversal within hours illustrates the problem. A road shown as open in the morning can become unusable after another rise in water level or landslide. Travellers heading by road to Pokhara, Chitwan or other destinations should check the Nepal Department of Roads status immediately before departure rather than relying on an update from the previous day. Overland evacuation towards India has remained possible through some southern corridors. Maharashtra pilgrims, for example, have been moved out through Bihar and Uttar Pradesh, while the Sonauli border was being used as an exit route even as cargo traffic faced long delays. If a traveller cannot be contacted, do this first Families should not wait for social media lists to settle the status of a missing person. Names can be duplicated, transliterated differently or wrongly matched. Contact the Embassy of India in Kathmandu on +977 985 131 6807, +977 970 910 7500 or +977 981 032 6117 . All three numbers can also be reached on WhatsApp. The dedicated email is eoikathmandufloodsupport@gmail.com . Give the traveller’s full passport name, passport number if available, Indian mobile number, tour operator, group name, last known location and time, hotel, bus or vehicle details, and a recent photograph. Contact Nepal’s Tourist Police on 1144 , Nepal Police on 100 , or Tourist Police headquarters in Kathmandu on +977-9851289445 . Nepal’s National Emergency Operations Centre can be reached on the 1234 toll-free number . Ask the tour operator for the passenger manifest and the last independently verified checkpoint for the group, not simply a WhatsApp assurance that “everyone is safe”. If the Embassy asks the family to check victim-identification material, use only the official link provided through the Embassy. Do not repost graphic images or circulate unverified names. Should September travellers cancel? For a normal Kathmandu trip, the answer is not automatically . International flights are operating, and the disaster does not mean every tourist destination in Nepal has shut down. For trips involving long road journeys, the decision should be taken closer to departure because highways remain vulnerable. For a Kailash Mansarovar trip through Rasuwagadhi-Gyirong , the threshold should be much higher. Do not leave India merely on an operator’s verbal assurance that the route will reopen. Obtain a revised itinerary, border confirmation and permit position in writing. Travellers who bought flexible air tickets should also compare the cost of postponing now with the risk of cancelling later. Will the airline refund the money? If the airline cancels the flight , Indian passenger rules require it to offer an alternative flight or a refund, subject to the applicable circumstances. If the flight is still operating and the passenger decides not to travel because of concern about conditions elsewhere in Nepal, that becomes a voluntary cancellation . Normal fare rules then apply unless the airline separately announces a waiver. A functioning Kathmandu airport therefore does not automatically give a traveller booked for a damaged Kailash route a free airline cancellation. Tour package refunds are much more complicated There is no single refund rule covering private Kailash operators. Published contracts examined by NewsDrum show how widely the terms differ. Some operators define floods, landslides, border closures and government directions as force majeure and reserve the right to postpone or modify the Yatra. Refunds may depend on cancellation timelines and recoveries from airlines, hotels, Tibet authorities and ground handlers. The practical lesson is simple: do not accept either “full refund guaranteed” or “nothing is refundable” over the phone . Ask the operator to send the applicable contract clause and an itemised statement showing what has already been paid to third parties and what remains recoverable. If an Indian operator refuses to address a refund dispute, travellers can approach the National Consumer Helpline on 1915 or through its online and WhatsApp channels. Insurance may pay, but the date of purchase matters Travel insurance can be valuable in exactly this kind of disruption, but only if the relevant benefit is actually included. Indian travel policies commonly offer some combination of trip cancellation, trip interruption, delay and emergency evacuation , with floods and other natural catastrophes listed as covered events in several products. However, exclusions matter as much as the headline cover. Some policies exclude events that were already reasonably known or foreseeable when the journey was booked or the insurance purchased. That means a traveller who bought insurance before August 26 may have a stronger claim if the policy includes natural-disaster cancellation or interruption. Buying a policy now does not mean the existing Nepal flood will automatically be covered. An insurer may treat it as a known event. Emergency evacuation is another area where travellers should not assume reimbursement. Some policies require the evacuation to be arranged or authorised in advance by the insurer’s assistance company. Keep every document: the original itinerary, booking receipt, operator cancellation or postponement notice, airline communication, road-closure advisory, extra hotel and transport bills, medical records and any Embassy or police communication. The insurer generally needs to know what money the airline or tour operator has already refunded before calculating the remaining insured loss. For families waiting for news, however, refunds can wait. The priority remains establishing where the traveller was when the flood hit and getting that information into the official rescue system rather than relying on forwarded lists. Route information in this article reflects updates available up to the afternoon of August 30, 2026. Conditions can change within hours.

Uzbekistan harnesses AI to unlock centuries of Islamic heritage

<p>Tashkent, Uzbekistan: Speakers stressed that technology should complement rather than displace human expertise, particularly in journalism. Journalism must adapt to artificial intelligence and an increasingly complex digital information environment without surrendering its fundamental commitment to truth and objectivity, media and government figures said in Tashkent, as Uzbekistan seeks a larger role in connecting Central Asia with international audiences.</p> <p>Speakers at the International Media Forum on Islamic civilization placed journalism at the centre of two rapidly unfolding transformations: the technological disruption of the media industry and the strengthening of political, economic and cultural links between Central Asia and the wider world.</p> <p>Sherzod Asadov, Press Secretary to the President of Uzbekistan, said the modern information environment offered unprecedented possibilities for reaching millions of people within seconds but had simultaneously created serious risks through disinformation, manipulation, deepfakes, fake news and coordinated information attacks. Artificial intelligence was rapidly transforming journalism, he said, but should expand the professional capabilities of journalists rather than replace them. He said the contemporary journalist was increasingly becoming a multimedia professional expected to combine writing with storytelling, visualisation, infographics, filming, editing, graphic design and content production.</p> <p>Despite that technological transformation, Asadov said, the underlying principles of journalism remained unchanged: truth, objectivity, professional conscience and respect for human interests.</p> <p>He also raised concerns about freedom of expression and the credibility of journalism when media principles become subordinate to political considerations. Journalism based on fairness, responsibility, factual accuracy and public interest, he argued, was essential to maintaining public confidence.</p> <p>He added that protecting national interests should not mean isolating a country from the outside world, but should instead depend on factual reporting, objective coverage and greater openness within society. Uzbekistan&rsquo;s media landscape has expanded in recent years. According to figures cited in his address, the number of media outlets increased from 2,004 in 2022 to 2,277 in 2024, with non-state media accounting for approximately 70 percent of the sector.</p> <p>Asadov said journalists were not merely transmitters of information but also played an important social role by hearing citizens&rsquo; concerns, raising significant issues and carrying the public voice to state institutions.</p> <p>&ldquo;That responsibility extends to explaining Uzbekistan&rsquo;s history and intellectual heritage to audiences abroad.&rdquo; Asadov described Islamic civilization primarily as a civilization of knowledge, enlightenment, intellectual inquiry and progress, saying the legacy of Al-Khwarizmi, Al-Biruni, Ibn Sina, Imam al-Bukhari, Imam al-Tirmidhi, Imam al-Maturidi and Ulugh Beg belonged to humanity as a whole.</p> <p>The link between that intellectual history and the contemporary technological world remains visible, he noted, in the term &ldquo;algorithm,&rdquo; which derives from the Latinised name of Al-Khwarizmi.<img src="/get/maximage/20260830_1788071325-782.jpg?1788071325" style="width: 100%;" /><span style="font-size:12px;"><em>CEO and Editorial Director of Euronews Claus Strunz</em></span></p> <p>He said historical heritage should not remain confined to museums and books but should be presented through modern digital formats and in language understandable to younger generations and international audiences. International journalism, he added, should build bridges rather than walls, strengthening understanding and dialogue between countries and societies.</p> <p>The growing strategic importance of that bridge between Central Asia and the wider world was also emphasised by CEO and Editorial Director of Euronews Claus Strunz, who described Uzbekistan as occupying a historic crossroads between Europe, Persia, India, China and the Arab world. He argued that Europe should again look more intensively towards the East as its relationship with Central Asia enters what he described as a renaissance.</p> <div class="read-also"> <h5 class="title boldti">Read Also</h5> <ul> <li><a href="/article/30/08/2026/kahramaa-simplifies-access-to-certificate-for-schools">Kahramaa simplifies access to certificate for schools</a></li> <li><a href="/article/30/08/2026/qatar-to-host-world-investment-forum-2026">Qatar to host World Investment Forum 2026</a></li> <li><a href="/article/30/08/2026/malaysian-community-takes-part-in-walkathon">Malaysian community takes part in walkathon</a></li> </ul> </div> <p>The emerging Silk Road, he said, should be viewed as far more than a network of roads and railways. &ldquo;It could develop into a global network carrying high technology, algorithms, science, knowledge, languages, architecture, innovation, ideas and information.&rdquo;</p> <p>Information, he stressed, had always travelled along the Silk Road while news once crossed deserts and trading routes, the contemporary version moves through &ldquo;bits and bytes.&rdquo; Tashkent, Samarkand and Bukhara, he suggested, have the potential to become centres of the digital world, while Uzbekistan&rsquo;s population, geographical position and relationships with neighbouring countries give it a significant role in closer Europe&ndash;Central Asia relations. He said the growing proximity between Europe and Central Asia represented both an opportunity and a responsibility, with political leaders required to establish the necessary framework for sustainable cooperation.</p> <p>He pointed to the EU&ndash;Central Asia Summit in Samarkand and subsequent initiatives as evidence of the growing relationship, while stressing that journalists had a responsibility to examine such developments critically and determine whether commitments were being implemented seriously and sustainably.</p> <p>That scrutiny, he said, formed part of the media&rsquo;s broader role during major political, economic and technological transformations.</p> <p>&ldquo;Journalists should report what is actually happening, fight disinformation and build trust, provide platforms for exchanging opinions and ideas, communicate culture and history, bring people together and encourage innovation,&rdquo; he added. The messages from the forum converged on a central challenge confronting contemporary media: technology has dramatically expanded journalism&rsquo;s reach and capabilities while simultaneously increasing the speed at which false or manipulated information can circulate. For Uzbekistan and the wider Central Asian region, speakers argued, credible international journalism will therefore be increasingly important as economic, technological and cultural connections deepen.</p> <p>The task facing the media is not simply to report that transformation, but to scrutinise it, explain its historical context and ensure that the expanding flow of information between Central Asia and the rest of the world strengthens understanding rather than adding to mistrust and misinformation.</p>
