    Revenge is a dish best served cold. Well, in this weird yet funny scenario of seeking revenge, it was indeed served on the table in the form of a lavish dinner. A Reddit user shared his story of break up on the internet that has cracked up everyone on social media.  
    He met his girlfriend while finishing his lifeguard certification course and everything was going fine until their mutual friend found out that the only reason this woman in question was involved with the guy was that he used to take her out for fancy meals. 
    “I've really liked this girl for a while that I met at a lifeguard certification course, and I talked to her while I was there and we (I thought) ended up hitting it off. We exchanged numbers and social media and all that and we messaged for a few weeks before I asked her out to a movie, which she accepted,” he wrote. 
    He added, “We'd been going on casual dates, nothing too serious and we weren't hanging out at my place or her place even though I'd hinted at the idea, for a few weeks before one of her friends (someone that was also at the lifeguarding course that I met and kept in contact with because he was cool) sends me this screenshot.”

    Unfortunately hurt and deceived, the guy decided to take his girlfriend out on a date and make her pay the bill instead. “After seeing this, I asked her to go on a nice date with me to a hibachi grill restaurant. $20-$40 dollar plates and premium desserts are served here. I got the most expensive thing they had and so did she. We both got fancy ice cream and multiple refills on drinks,” he wrote. 
    “I complimented her a lot and smiled consistently, before getting up to go to the bathroom and leaving. (I was also her ride). About 45 minutes after, I get furious texts from her saying that she had to have her mom come down and pay for it because she didn't have the money on her and that we were done. I know it's not a lot and it sucks because I thought she was actually into me but it felt pretty nice leaving her that way,” he revealed.  
    Opinions on this was actually divided and everyone shared their take on this incident.

    If there is any truth in this story, then we do feel bad for our bro out here. Hurting feelings to get some extra food is actually not a cool idea. Rest, the next time you date someone, make sure they aren't using you to buy them food! First world problems today are hilarious.

    For many of us, it isn't a pleasant feeling reminiscing about our Math classes at school. Or worse, the look on our Math teacher's face every time she handed out our test papers. It was laborious to sit through 45-50 minutes of utterly boring Math lectures. Pretending that we were following even half the s**t that was explained on the blackboard using the same hundred numbers, along with terrifying symbols which legit brought nightmares!
    © Twitter
    Things weren't much different when it came to Social Sciences either, though there would be moments when we would actually get interested in the kings who ruled over India and how badass Gandhi was during his time. Even Geography and Civics would come to make sense on more than one occasion because the relatability factor for these subjects was still much higher than Math!
    But now, those days of boredom and dread are long gone, and we've grown up to be adults with a mind of our own and the ability to read, learn, work and earn. But it so turns out that in real life it's the lessons we learnt in Civics that would stay around guarding our individuality, rights and freedom as long as we're alive.

    Given the current scenario in India which has the entire world looking at us, it would do us good to recall a thing or two we were taught in 9th standard Civics. That one chapter which empowered each one of us with enough confidence, faith and pride in our country, our democracy.
    The chapter was called Democratic Rights and as you may have understood, it's time we revise our basics once again.
    What Are Rights? © Twitter
    In a very basic sense, Rights are “claims of a person over other fellow beings, over the society and over the government”. To live in a diverse society like ours, people need to feel secure to live happily with others, and our Rights help us with just that!
    What Are Fundamental Rights?
    Simply put, Fundamental Rights are basic human rights that every citizen enjoys, irrespective of their gender, caste, religion or creed. The Constitution of India guarantees six fundamental rights to Indian citizens and those are: (i) Right to equality (ii) Right to freedom (iii) Right against exploitation (iv) Right to freedom of religion (v) Cultural and educational rights (vi) Right to constitutional remedies.
    © Twitter
    However, of late many Indians are claiming that they feel that their fundamental rights are under threat given the current political scenario in the country. Let's see how:
    1. Protests Regardless of the reason why a protest is being held, be it a traders' protest, a student protest or protests by a minority group, The Constitution, under the Right to Freedom allows Indian citizens to hold peaceful protests and express their dissent against institutions and authority.
    Article 19 of our Constitution provides 6 forms of freedom to Indians out of which 'Freedom of speech and expression' and 'Freedom to assemble peacefully and without arms' make protests not only democratic but also a Constitutional Right to be employed whenever needed.

    Without choosing sides or forcing people to give up their political affiliations, let us remember to not call peaceful protests a nuisance or public inconvenience.
    2. Education Numerous universities in the country have witnessed instances of unrest and fear in recent times. Students, teachers and even security personnel have been hurt in the process of voicing the concerns and demands of a group, after things went out of hand.
    We must remember that Article 29 under 'Cultural and Educational Rights' of The Constitution states that any minority group having a distinct language, script or culture of its own shall have can take measures to conserve it. Additionally, no citizen can be denied admission into any educational institution maintained by the government or receiving government aid on the grounds of religion, race, caste, or language.
    3. Equal Treatment © Unspalsh
    The on-going nationwide outcry against a recently passed Act, is believed to have violated the most important of all Rights, namely the 'Right to Equality'. The CAA-NRC protestors claim that Article 14 and 15 under Right to Equality, which guarantees that  every Indian citizen shall enjoy equality before law and prohibition of discrimination in any form on the grounds of religion, race, caste, *** or place of birth respectively, is currently under attack and thus the call for an absolute boycott of the Act has been called.
    4. Preventing Violation Of Rights © BCCL
    People who have come to the streets for whatever personal, religious or political reasons and not only employing their Right to freedom, but also their 'Right to Constitutional Remedies' which decrees that citizens have the right to seek help from courts if their rights are violated. Article 32 of The Constitution states that in case of violation of fundamental rights, people can directly approach the Supreme Court to seek justice.
    The 56 pleas against CAA-NRC which have been sent to the Supreme Court and are due to be heard on 22nd January 2020, are in keeping with this.
    You see, there is no Math here, just plain Civics reminding us to be civil human beings and citizens of India.

    Say what you will about our Bollywood stars, but they do know a thing or two about sneakers and wearing them with style. From Anand Ahuja wearing the wildest sneakers we've seen in 2019, to Maniesh Paul wearing a sneaker that legit looks like a pair of children's shoes that were spray painted, we've seen it all.
    © Instagram/anilskapoor
    So naturally, when a resident of the tinsel town wears a new pair that is zany and insanely flamboyant to look at, something that screams for attention, people notice.
    © Viral Bhayani
    Kunal Kemmu, it seems is a massive sneakerhead that people don't often talk about. Time and again he has been spotted wearing some really dapper and cool pairs. Saying that he knows his Air Jordan 11s from his 12s would be an understatement.
    © Instagram/khemster2
    However, it was the most recent pair that he was spotted in, that puts him at par with some of the most revered hypebeasts we have in India.
    Kunal Kemmu was recently spotted in a pair of sneakers that look as if they have dropped straight out of Dragon Ball Z, the Japanese anime that all '90s kids grew up with.
    © Viral Bhayani
    The sneakers, thanks to the orange and yellow coloured panels almost seem to appear like a dragon breathing fire, with the orange laces, further enhancing their appeal. That, coupled with the fact that they have been coupled with a pair of orange socks, black pants, and basic yellow t-shirt, further accentuate their appeal.
    © Viral Bhayani
    The particular pair that Kunal is wearing is the Track.2 Sneakers from Balenciaga, the Spanish luxury fashion brand, that are quite popular among the Bollywood fraternity for their Triple S line of 'ugly' sneakers. The Track.2 are actually a masterpiece, considering how technical the sneakers actually are
    © Hypebeast
    The sneakers have very pronounced and exaggerated treading chunks on their soles, which further adds to the aggressive aesthetic that they aim for. What really sets the pair apart, is the fact that the sneakers are actually made of 172 smaller panels which are stuck together to make its sieve and multilayered silhouette. 
    © Hypebeast
    The panels, all intertwine and interlock which helps Balenciaga to cut down on the weight of the sneaker, which makes it one heck of a piece for running and sports. However, considering the price of the sneakers, you might not want to do that.
    © Viral Bhayani
    These Track.2s from Balenciaga are a part of their Winter/Fall 2019 collection and is listed for $895. That's just shy of Rs 70,000. Add to that your regular customs and import tariffs, and you are looking at a figure just shy of Rs 1,00,000.
    © Viral Bhayani
    Say what you will, these are some awesome sneakers. Way to go Kunal, a rather cheeky way to kick the year off. Keep 'em coming!

    Ashley took to her Twitter saying, “Sometimes you plan a destination wedding for 8 months at an elite hotel in India. Sometimes the President of India makes an impromptu trip to that hotel on the day of the wedding. Sometimes you get 48 hours notice to plan an entirely new wedding.”

    For someone who started his journey as a waiter and whose early days in Bollywood were full of struggles, Akshay Kumar has come a long way in his cinematic journey. 
    He has not only given back to back hits in the last year, but the 52-year-old actor has also created history by becoming the only actor in the industry to mint Rs. 700 crore at the box office in a single year. 
    The latest report by Bollywood Hungama suggested that Akshay went miles ahead of  actors Salman Khan and Ranveer Singh to reach at Rs. 700 crore mark in a year. This is a first of its kind. 
    The actor clearly follows a strategy and does four movies a year which makes him stand apart from all the other biggies in the industry.
    In 2019, he had back to back four releases and with all the movies being hit at the box office, he not only entered the Rs. 500 crore-in-a-year club but was also able to make it to the first ever Rs. 700 crore-in-a-year club. 
    With Kesari (Rs. 154.41 cr.), Mission Mangal (Rs. 202.98 cr.), Housefull 4 (Rs. 194.60 cr.) and Good Newwz (approx. Rs. 188 cr. expected), Akshay has managed to collect a whopping Rs. 700 crore in a single year at the box office, added the report.

    Ranveer is at the second spot as he earned Rs 542 crore in 2018 followed by Salman who collected Rs 530 crore in the year 2019.
    Akshay's latest movie Good Newwz has received mixed responses from the audience as well as the critics. It is performing well at the box office. The film also stars Kareena Kapoor Khan, Kiara Advani, and Diljit Dosanjh among others in pivotal roles.

    The story revolves around two couples with the same surname. Coincidentally, both the pairs attempt to conceive a child through IVF but confusion strikes when the sperm of the two men get exchanged in the lab.
    The film was released on December 27 and is continuing to rake in the moolah at the ticket counters.

    The off-spinner underwent testing which revealed the illegal bowling action. Photo: cricket.com.auSydney Thunder off-spinner Chris Green on Wednesday received a three-month ban from bowling after being found to have an illegal action.
    The 26-year-old was reported by the umpires after Thunder's T20 Big Bash League clash with the Melbourne Stars in Sydney on January 2.
    Under Cricket Australia protocols, he then underwent testing at the National Cricket Centre, with the results showing an illegal bowling action.
    "We'd like to commend Chris and the Thunder for the way they have approached this process with complete cooperation and respect," said Cricket Australia's head of operations Peter Roach.

    "Chris undertook testing at the earliest possible time and satisfactorily replicated his bowling action in the controlled environment.
    "We look forward to working with Chris in the coming months and conducting further testing once the suspension period has elapsed."
    Green can still be picked as a batsman but withdrew from Wednesday's return showdown against the Stars in Melbourne.

    Rani Mukerji thanked her fans for supporting her film, 'Mardaani 2'Rani Mukerji’s new film, Mardaani 2 has received massive success at the box office and the veteran actor cannot be happier over the heartwarming response from fans. 
    While many Bollywood celebrities keep in touch with their fans through different social media handles, the Hichki actor does not use the channel to garner fan following. 
    She said, “More than pressure, it’s a relief because as actors, we strive for people’s reaction, their adulation, love and faith. In my case, my fans have kept me relevant even though I’m not on social media, which is essential these days. So, if I still have a fan following that means I’ve probably earned it through my work.”
    Showing gratitude towards her fans, the Kuch Kuch Hota Hai star expressed: “I feel blessed and their excitement towards my work has always been a positive critic in my life. I’m always charged to do better with each film of mine as don’t want to disappoint them,” Hindustan times reported.
    Moreover, she also talked about her the social stigma of gender inequality that her film revolves around, she said: “As actors, we need the material to be bang on for us to bring it to life on screen and improvise on it to create a character that leaves a lasting impression.”
    Rani emphasized on staying true to herself and saying what’s right despite its consequences. “As long as I’m making sense to some people it’s good enough. You don’t have to become miss congeniality and make everyone happy. You’ve to understand that sometimes there is a certain belief that I live by,” she said.
    Reflecting about her dealing with criticism or giving suggestions to others, she said: “I’m open to criticism and advice that I should accept, follow. I believe in my position when people ask me questions, I’ve to answer them. They ask for advice too… And I give my point of view more than often.”
    “Given my profession, fortunately or unfortunately, I’m made to give opinion on different topics. There are certain times and things I feel strongly about and react. But I understand when someone doesn’t like or accept it, they aren’t entitled to. That’s his or her right. Similarly, if somebody gives me an opinion then I too have the right to be okay or not,” she added.

    Protesters shout slogans during a nationwide general strike called by trade unions aligned with opposition parties to protest the Indian government's economic policies in Chennai on January 8, 2020. Photo: AFPNEW DELHI: Tens of thousands of workers affiliated to trade unions led a strike in parts of India on Wednesday, disrupting transport and banking services in a protest against privatization and the growing impact of an economic slowdown on jobs.
    More than 10 national trade unions affiliated to left-wing parties, including the main opposition Congress, have called for a nationwide protest against Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s labor reforms. Those include the privatization of state run companies Air India and oil major BPCL, as well as a merger of public-sector banks.
    In the eastern state of West Bengal, workers disrupted train services in Kolkata and other towns while shops and banks were shut at various places.
    Buses, taxis and auto rickshaws stayed off the road in West Bengal, Kerala and some other states though the national capital Delhi and the financial hub Mumbai remained largely unaffected.
    CH Venkatachalam, general secretary of the All India Bank Employees’ Association, said the proposed merger of 10 state banks into four banks would affect jobs and could hit the recovery of bad loans amounting to near $140 billion.

    “Modi government’s policies have led to a severe economic slowdown and have created bad loans for banks,” Venkatachalam told Reuters by phone, adding the government should take steps to help boost consumer demand by offering incentives to workers.
    The government has warned its employees that participation in the strike in any form would lead to deduction of wages and “appropriate disciplinary action”.
    Asia’s third largest economy is facing its worst slowdown in decades, and the government on Tuesday forecast five per cent growth for the current financial year, the slowest pace in 11 years, blamed on weakening demand and private investment.
    In a tweet, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi said the policies of the Modi government have created “catastrophic unemployment” and weakened state-run companies.
    Thousands of people have lost jobs in the manufacturing and the construction sector and debt-ridden companies have cut their investment plans.

    The unemployment rate rose to 7.7 per cent in December from 7 per cent a year earlier, data released by the Centre for Monitoring Indian Economy, a Mumbai-based think tank, showed.
    The government is likely to cut spending for the current fiscal year by as much as 2 trillion rupees ($27.87 billion) as it faces one of the biggest tax shortfalls in recent years, mainly due to economic slowdown.

    Photo: FileLONDON: Analyst have expressed concern over the spiraling Iran crisis and worry about the oil supply over the Strait of Hormuz — a vital shipping lane for a fifth of global crude — and also over Iraq's output.
    Oil prices had surged last Friday after US President Donald Trump ordered the drone assassination of Iran's top general Qasem Soleimani, but the market stabilised on Monday and Tuesday with Middle East crude supplies unaffected.
    However on Wednesday, the oil market shifted higher once more after Tehran launched revenge attacks to target US forces in Iraq, making good on its pledge to hit back over the killing.
    Iran fired missiles overnight at Iraqi bases housing the US and British military, officials in Washington and Tehran said.

    British Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab voiced concern over "reports of casualties". But Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif insisted that the country does "not seek escalation or war".
    Traders remain fearful nevertheless that Tehran could seek to block the Hormuz waterway — a key artery for crude that stretches between Oman and Iran.
    Hormuz, one of the world's most congested transit points, links up the region's oil producers with markets in Asia, Europe and North America.
    Disruptions at forefront"Supply disruptions were put at the forefront of the agenda for investors," said Mihir Kapadia, CEO of Sun Global Investments.
    "These concerns have been fuelled by Friday's killing of Soleimani and it is likely Iran will try and disrupt oil exports that travel through the Straits of Hormuz.
    "However ... it remains unclear as to what the next developments will be."
    The US government's Energy Information Administration describes Hormuz as "the world's most important oil transit chokepoint" through which 21 million barrels of crude per day passed in 2018.
    Also read: Middle East war concerns push oil up after top Iranian general killed in US strike
    The strait had already been rocked last year by a string of attacks that Washington and its allies blamed on Iran, accusations Tehran firmly denied.
    Its Western foes have also accused Iran of being behind a major attack on Saudi oil installations and Iran has in recent months also repeatedly seized tankers operating in the Gulf.
    Traders remain less fearful over the loss of Iranian oil because the Islamic republic remains under punishing US sanctions that were re-imposed by Trump in 2018.
    Energy Aspects analyst Christopher Haines noted traders were instead worried about oil output from Iraq — particularly if US troops are pulled out.
    America's military strategy in Iraq was thrown into confusion on Monday as the Pentagon admitted a letter from a general informing the Iraqi government of an imminent US troop pullout was sent by mistake.
    "There is a potential risk of disruption on Iraq, whose crude exports represent (about) 3.5 million barrels per day," Haines told AFP.
    Also read: Crude and gold extend gains, stocks sink on fear of US-Iran war
    "If US troops leave, it will leave the area less secure," he added.
    Iraq is currently the second biggest player in oil cartel OPEC after kingpin Saudi Arabia.
    SEB analyst Bjarne Schieldrop agreed that Iraqi production could be impacted by the current crisis — but so far no oil supplies have been affected.
    'Not single drop lost'"Eventual loss of supply in the Middle East may however be in Iraq down the road and not so much due to near term retaliations, though so far not a single drop of oil supply has been lost," he said.
    Soleimani's assassination, which was carried out by a drone near Baghdad airport, sparked concern about a spreading conflict.
    Europe's benchmark oil contract Brent and US counterpart West Texas Intermediate crude had initially won more than three percent each on Friday.
    However, those gains fell far short of September 16, when both contacts had rocketed about 14 per cent on news of attacks on Saudi Arabian oil infrastructure.

    A display featuring missiles and a portrait of Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei is seen at Baharestan Square in Tehran, Iran. Photo: ReutersIran’s launching of more than a dozen missiles at American-led forces in Iraq on Wednesday came after years of preparing for a confrontation with its superpower foe, whose forces are vastly larger and more advanced, reported Reuters news agency on Wednesday. 
    The Gulf country has more than 500,000 active-duty personnel, including 125,000 members of its elite Revolutionary Guards, according to a report last year by the International Institute for Strategic Studies. But international sanctions and restrictions on arms imports have made it hard for Iran to develop or buy more sophisticated weaponry.
    To compensate for the imbalance, Iran has developed “asymmetrical” responses - ballistic missiles, deadly drones and a web of militia allies in Iraq, Syria, Lebanon and Yemen, among other things - with the aim of being able to inflict pain while avoiding the traditional battlefield.

    “From a conventional military perspective they would get absolutely hammered,” said a British former military commander who asked not to be identified because of the sensitivity of the matter. “Their conventional military is very, very sparse and quite old and quite out of date. They’ve spent all their money on asymmetric attack capabilities. In that regard they’re very well prepared.”
    Until Wednesday, the strategy had deterred a direct conflict with the US as tensions spiked since Washington quit a multi-lateral nuclear deal in 2018 and reimposed sanctions.
    Gulf rival Saudi Arabia recently witnessed the damage that missile and drone assaults can cause, after a strike on its oil facilities last year briefly halved production and knocked out 5% of global crude supply. Riyadh and Washington blamed Iran for the attack.

    Iran has built the largest stockpile of ballistic missiles in the Middle East. Some are based on the older, widely used “Scud” designs, with a range of at least 750km (466 miles). Others, based on the North Korean No Dong, can reach up to 2,000km, within reach of Israel or southeast Europe, according to a US Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) report last year.
    The Revolutionary Guards fields a fleet of missile-armed speedboats and midget submarines it can deploy against US military ships or commercial tankers to disrupt the flow of oil in Gulf waters, where Washington says Tehran attacked six tankers last year.
    “If you look at ships, tanks, jet fighters, Iran looks very weak. But if you’re looking at anti-ship missiles, ballistic missiles, UAVs and things like that then it looks a lot more capable,” said Jeremy Binnie, Middle East and Africa editor for Jane’s Defense Weekly.

    Iran’s fleet of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) can be used for surveillance or armed with explosives, according to military experts.
    “Iran in the Persian Gulf doesn’t really need to have big ships, not necessarily frigates and destroyers. Speedboats, gun boats, missile boats can do the job,” said Hossein Aryan, a military analyst who served 18 years in Iran’s navy before and after the 1979 Islamic revolution.
    Major-General Qassem Soleimani, whose killing in a US drone strike in Baghdad last week sparked the Iranian retaliation on Wednesday, was the head of the Revolutionary Guards Quds Force. The group handled clandestine operations outside Iran, working closely with allied military forces and militias in Iraq, Syria and Lebanon.

    Iran’s leaders have promised harsh reprisals over the death of Soleimani, who was a national hero to many Iranians but considered a dangerous villain by Western governments. 
    He was buried in Iran on Tuesday after tens of thousands mourned him in a ceremony led by Iran’s supreme leader. US officials have said Soleimani was killed because intelligence indicated forces under his command planned attacks on US targets in the region, although they have provided no evidence.

    Democrats in the US Congress and some of the party’s presidential contenders warned that the escalating conflict could spark a wider war in the Middle East.
    Lebanon’s Hezbollah, along with a handful of the Iraqi militias closely allied with Iran, have already pledged to take revenge against American forces for Soleimani’s death.
    More than 5,000 US troops are in Iraq along with other foreign forces as part of a coalition that has trained and supported Iraqi security forces against the threat of Islamic State militants.

    Melbourne Stars' pacer Haris Rauf on Wednesday became the first Pakistani to bag a hat-trick in the Big Bash League (BBL) while playing against Sydney Thunder.
    The fast bowler grabbed the wickets of Daniel Sams, Matthew Gilkes and Callum Ferguson and finished with figures of 3/23. It is pertinent to mention that one of his deliveries clocked at 151.3km/hr. 
    Previously, the fast bowler had come under fire for his controversial cut-throat celebration to which Rauf had apologised for and adapted a new viewer-friendly celebration style.

    After nearly eight years of proceedings, personal anguish and public outrage, the horrific Nirbhaya rape case has finally come close to an end, as a Delhi court has issued death sentences against the four convicts, who are scheduled to hang on the 22nd of January.
    Soon after the announcement made national headlines, Pawan Jallad, a third-generation hangman, shared that he may be the one to end the lives of the four men, now on death row.

    “I am ready for it. A few days ago, I was asked by Tihar to remain on standby for the executions in the Nirbhaya case. Being a father, I will be satisfied if I get to hang those rapists,” Jallad explained to news agency PTI. “I have to check the strength of the rope and the platform needed for hanging besides attending to the lever used for it.” He added that the actual preparation is undertaken two to three hours before an execution early in the morning - revealing a bit of what to expect as the hanging date draws close.
    Back in December, UP's Additional Director General (Prisons) Anand Kumar had confirmed Tihar jail's correspondence for a hangman. “The Tihar Jail had asked Uttar Pradesh to provide two hangmen at short notice but since one of them in Lucknow is unwell, the other one in Meerut (Jallad) has been asked to remain prepared,” he said.
    © Reuters/Police stand guard at Tihar Jail, where the convicts are currently imprisoned.
    Jallad's profession runs in the family, it seems. “My grandfather Kallu Jallad and father Babbu Jallad had done this job. I personally helped my grandfather in five executions,” Pawan claimed. He also asserted that his grandfather played the role of hangman in the case of PM Indira Gandhi's assassination, back in the eighties.
    Despite this apparent legacy, Jallad himself has yet to take a life since he was hired in 2013. He came close to four years ago when the High Court commuted Surinder Koli's death sentence to life imprisonment in the Nithari case. “For seven days, I strenuously prepared for the execution. But he got away,” Pawan said. 
    This time however, Pawan seems confident that the criminals will be at the end of his rope.

    It is very easy to look at something and buy it instantly without having to analyse your wardrobe. Give it a fight and stop the urge. Everything that you find is not necessary to become a part of your outfit. Instead of going the conventional route, take inspiration and swap your basics for something extra. It can be anything, classics or even basic T-shirts. The thing to remember here is to buy clothes that fit well and actually dovetails with your personality, rather impulsive shopping.

    2018, you wore a T-shirt with ripped jeans and come 2019, you wore the combination with new sneakers. Now, that's not called experimenting. The key to a great outfit is trying several textures, patterns or silhouettes that will elevate the overall get up. As far as T-shirts and shirts go, you can lay your hands on different fabrics, eye-catching etc. Investing in pieces that bring out the new side of you is the best style resolution you can stick by this year.

    It is important to have a capsule wardrobe where certain pieces are decided already and you can experiment with the combination in versatile ways. On days, when you just can't muster the strength to create a good outfit, rely on this method. It's a mini wardrobe that includes all the essential items that you like. One item remains constant and you can mix and match with it. This saves time and money and you can have a good wardrobe rotation for the next 30 days!

    Layering can be done in summers and winters both. This one is not mandatory but if you wish to up your game, you can definitely create a perfectly-layered outfit. The trick to layering is to stick with lighter pieces like a denim shirt or a lightweight bomber jacket. When the temps drop, try it with a neutral trenchcoat or a leather jacket. Shedding a few layers on your outfit is always a good idea and believe us, it's an instant way to make a statement.

    Generally, the types of shoes for men are: brogues for office and sandals for summers. Well, your shoe-rotation needs an update. Why not add kicks that look luxurious and are equal parts of stylish and comfortable? The best way to do so is to get a pair of chunky sneakers that adds an off-duty element to your garb, while also looking undeniably cool. Besides that, lay your hands on loafers that will let you be fashion-forward and dovetail well with many of your outfits.

    Dandruff and winters go hand in hand. Sure, there are people who do not need to deal with this travesty as often as some others, but these people are clearly a minority. More often than not, you'll find that even the most well-groomed among men have to deal with this problem, once the temperature takes a dip.

    Now, as much as we would like to get rid of this problem once and for all, it's not actually possible. Some of the less fortunate among us have just been cursed with bad genes and bad skin, and it is people like us who have to deal with the worst manifestations of this issue.

    Now, you might want to consult a dermatologist if you have a severe condition and have dandruff throughout the year. Meanwhile, here are some easy, budget-friendly hacks that work well and limit how much of your scalp you actually shed.
    1. Coconut Oil © iStock
    Time and again, we have said that coconut oil is God's gift to mankind. No matter what your skin ailment is, you can bet on coconut oil massages to at least alleviate the issue, if not remedy it completely. Simply heat up some coconut oil and massage it gently on your scalp. Don't get too rough with it, otherwise, you may disturb the flaky layers of your scalp and start shedding more. Coconut oil not only helps your scalp in retaining the right amount of moisture, it also helps in keeping the pH levels balanced.
    2. Aloe Vera © iStock
    Aloe vera is again one of those naturally growing, versatile things that are easily found in every household. Now, they may not be a kitchen item technically, but they can be abundantly found around every residential area. Simply slice up an aloe vera leave and rub the sap that oozes out, gently on your scalp. The sap has a number of nutrients and elements that help in keeping the pH balance neutral. Plus, the sap acts as a great anti-oxidant for your skin.
    3. Camphor © iStock
    Camphor works really well for your skin, during any given weather, more so during winters. Simply crush some camphor in your palms and rub them over your hair, and massage gently on your scalp. This not only gives the hair a nice sheen, it also protects it from the dryness of the air by locking the moisture in, right into the hair.
    4. Using Clean Towels © iStock
    Just ask yourself, when was the last time you washed your towel. Ideally, you should be using a fresh towel every day. However, considering that we don't have the luxury to hire housekeepers who would treat us like guests at a hotel, try to wash your towel at least once every 3-4 days. And when you're drying your hair, pat your head gently with the towel instead of rubbing the towel on your head vigorously as if you are trying to light a fire with sticks.
    5. Watch Your Bath Water © iStock
    Finally, keep a good eye on your water heating system that you draw your bathwater from. Ideally, you should not use water that's too hot - that just messes up your scalp, skin as well as hair. Try to wash your hair and head with lukewarm water even during winters. That way, your scalp will retain the right level of moisture and won't dry out.

    Have you ever noticed that during winter a perfume is less noticeable? It's an unknown fact that perfumes don't linger on for long in winter and that's due to the drop in temperatures. Your body's natural moisture level causes the skin to get drier.
    When it's dry, it is merely impossible for your perfume to last which is why people with oily skin are benefitted here. But, even then, there are ways to combat this issue and not let anyone go 'nose blind', irrespective of the season.
    Here are four best ways to ensure that your fragrance lasts longer than ever, especially in winter:
    1. Pick Heavy Fragrances Summer is for light ephemeral fragrances but for winter, they are an absolute no-no. You need to opt for heavier scents since your skin will be comparatively dry. Picking a scent that is heavier is one of the best ways to smell good all day long.
    © iStock
    2. Pay Attention To Notes The base notes of perfumes are very important in winter. Being the heaviest part as compared to middle and top notes, having a good base note is necessary. Choose perfumes like sandalwood, patchouli or vanilla as they are common for winter. If you like some other heavy fragrance, you can lay your hands on that as well.
    © iStock
    3. Picking A Category Think about spicy winter perfumes that have a strong fragrance of cinnamon, cardamon etc. They mainly fall in the oriental perfume category. The fragrance is rich and quite exotic that will definitely last all day long.
    Need more? Try woody or earthy fragrances. They are a good choice and will let you reminisce of beautiful winter days. Try labdanum or oakmoss as they hydrate the skin with their gentle texture.
    © iStock
    4. Shopping For A Fragrance Scents work differently on every skin. A perfume that smells good on your friend may not necessarily react the same way on your skin. To properly shop for it, you need to try it out. The simplest way to begin is to leave your house without any sort of scent.
    © iStock
    Next, you can check the fragrance on four different places, left wrist, right wrist, and both elbows. Take notes on how the fragrance develops with time. If the fragrance fades then the fragrance is not for you. But if it's still active even after a couple of hours, you know you have found a winner.

    Anand Mahindra has a knack of finding talented people out of nowhere, putting them in the spotlight and ensuring they get all the help and attention they deserve.
    He recently took to Twitter again and shared another encouraging story wherein he labelled a 94-year-old woman as the “entrepreneur of the year”.
    Here's what Anand Mahindra shared on his Twitter, “When you hear the word 'start-up' it brings to mind images of millennials in Silicon Valley or Bengaluru trying to build billion-dollar 'unicorns.' From now on let's also include a 94 yr old woman who doesn't think it's too late to do a start-up. She's my entrepreneur of the year.”

    Harbhajan's daughter persuaded her to follow her passion and told TOI in an interview, “Mom expressed one day that she has not earned a single penny from her own and her words struck to my heart a lot. She is so talented and we never went to eat outside, not even a bar of chocolate as she cooks well. Our childhood memories are related to 'besan ki barfi' and that's why I encouraged her to make them and sell them as well.” 
    Mahindra's Tweet has garnered over 10.7K likes and more than 2K re-tweets, so far. 
    Here's what netizens have to say about the inspiring story-
    Thank you sir, for respecting the concept of self earning individual. It is so tough to be financially independent for all and not all are privileged to be sound technologically and can gain access to easy finance. Yet they craft their life independently.

    Recently, he put on a show for the people of China and showed off his incredible dance moves. He took off and broke into a dance at Tesla's plant in Shanghai during an event organised at Tesla Gigafactory 3 to mark the first deliveries of made-in-China Tesla vehicles.  
    Well, that's one way to celebrate.
    He knows his moves are too good to handle that he obviously shared it on his Twitter, which is basically a meme page at this point.

    The image reveals a slimmer phone that has rounded edges, big bezels, a lightning port and no 3.5mm headphone jack. The iPhone in the image looks awfully similar to the iPhone 8 and is probably why the smartphone will be a bit more affordable as it is using a design previously used by Apple. 
    And finally comes your very first look at #Apple's highly anticipated #iPhoneSE2 aka #iPhone9!

    — Steve H.McFly (@OnLeaks) January 7, 2020 Since it looks so similar to the iPhone 8, there is a good chance that this upcoming phone may just be called the iPhone 9. However, there will be upgrades under the hood that may include a more powerful chipset, better camera and a bigger battery. Since it will be a new smartphone by Apple, it will also probably run iOS 13 out of the box.
    These renders also may not look exactly like the final product as previous leaks have indicated different design aspects before. However, it remains to be seen whether the new iPhone SE 2 or iPhone 9 will launch with these designs. Currently, there is no news when the smartphone will launch and how much it will cost.

    If you ever thought you needed a second display for a smartphone, your prayers may have just been answered. We've seen a new wave of foldable smartphones that offer a similar sort of convenience, however these smartphones are still quite expensive and in early stages of foldable screen technology. However, there is a way to add a second screen to your smartphone with an inexpensive solution that gives you some of the same abilities such as using multiple applications at once, better multi-tasking capabilities, access files and photos from dual screens and more.

    The smartphone case is called castAway and can connect with any iOS or Android phone and also works when detached from your smartphone. It comes with a dual boot option where you can turn the second screen into a keyboard, a trackpad or even use it for playing PUBG. In addition to these features, the case comes with an SD slot to expand storage and WiFi, Bluetooth, front and back-facing cameras & an audio jack. The battery in the case can also be used as a power bank to extend your smartphone's battery life.

    The second screen of the smartphone uses a hinge design that makes it easy to support various smartphones. The smartphone side of the case is a custom fit for each major model type. The case currently supports smartphones with below screen sizes:

    one/L with a 6.3” screen for smartphones with screens of similar size

    Well, I am sure you're well aware of how devastating the bushfires all across the Australian continent have been. People have lost their lives and property and more than 5 million animals have died, so far. The numbers are shocking and while help is building up from around the globe, the loss that people are experiencing is, currently, unimaginable.

    A lot of celebrities and people otherwise have started donating to restore some plausibility in Australia. Russell Crowe, Nicole Kidman and Chris Hemsworth, the celebs who hail from Australia are already going out of their way to help in whichever way they can. Apart from celebrities, we have different communities who have come together to aid all the survivors', by feeding them free meals and providing them comfort in these trying times.

    Amongst people who're helping the calamity stricken continent, the family of the late Steve Irwin has helped save 90,000 animals in danger. I am sure you remember who Steve Irwin aka the 'Crocodile Hunter' was. Well, to jog your memory anyway, he was an Australian zookeeper and a television personality who loved helping animals in the wild. He died in 2006 after he was brutally injured by a Stingray. 
    Taking his legacy forward and doing what he would have done, if he was alive, the Irwin family has helped rescue 90,000 animals in Australia, so far, including those who were victims of the rampant fires all across the country.
    View this post on Instagram With so many devastating fires within Australia, my heart breaks for the people and wildlife who have lost so much. I wanted to let you know that we are SAFE. There are no fires near us @AustraliaZoo or our conservation properties. Our Wildlife Hospital is busier than ever though, having officially treated over 90,000 patients. My parents dedicated our Australia Zoo Wildlife Hospital to my beautiful grandmother. We will continue to honour her by being Wildlife Warriors and saving as many lives as we can. ððð¼

    The Irwin family includes Steve's wife, Terri Irwin, and their children, daughter Bindi and son Robert Irwin. Currently, the family owns and operates Australia Zoo's Wildlife Hospital. Bindi, in an interview confirmed that they're treating the injured animals and assured that their conservation property is not at the risk of catching fire.

    “My parents dedicated our Australia Zoo Wildlife Hospital to my beautiful grandmother. We will continue to honor her by being Wildlife Warriors and saving as many lives as we can,” said Bindi, in an interview with CNN.
    View this post on Instagram Our @AustraliaZoo Wildlife Hospital takes in animals from all over Australia. Hundreds of grey-headed flying foxes, a species listed as vulnerable, have been flown to Queensland after the rescue centre they were recovering in was at risk from fire and evacuated. Some of the orphans are now being cared for by the team at the hospital until they're big enough to go home, and there's no threat of fire. ð¦ In September, flying fox admissions to the hospital skyrocketed by over 750% due to drought conditions and lack of food. Flying foxes are now being drastically affected by wildfires and we're again seeing an influx of these beautiful animals from across the country. This week, we treated our 90,000th patient. To cope with so many animals being admitted to the hospital, in 2019 we opened a sea turtle rehabilitation centre, sea snake ward and are about to complete a new bird recovery area, but it's still not enough to keep up. We need to build a new ward for our patients. Wildlife Warriors from around the world are asking how they can help us save native wildlife, you can donate on our website www.wildlifewarriors.org , or support our fundraiser to start construction of our newest ward by visiting the link in my bio! ð

    View this post on Instagram Over 600 bats were transported from caring facilities evacuated in New South Wales due to fire.

    The hospital they operate has been busier than usual saving as many animals as they can. Their 90,000th animal saved is a Platypus, rescued from the fire named 'Ollie'!
    View this post on Instagram This is patient number 90,000 that the Australia Zoo Wildlife Hospital has treated. 'Ollie' the orphaned platypus is receiving round the clock care until he can be released back to the wild. Over the last 16 years, the hospital has provided 24/7 wildlife rehabilitation and an incredible animal rescue service. We're so proud of this world-class facility! Thank you for your support - with pressures from drought to bushfires, wildlife need our help now more than ever.

    While they rescued a lot of animals, some were beyond their immediate help. For instance, Blossom the Possum, who was caught in the bushfires couldn't survive.
    View this post on Instagram Blossom the possum was admitted to the #AustraliaZoo Wildlife Hospital after being caught in one of the bushfires burning in other parts of Queensland. We have such an incredible team who work day and night to protect gorgeous animals like Blossom. Devastatingly this beautiful girl didn't make it even after working so hard to save her life. I want to thank you for your kind words and support. This is the heart-wrenching truth, every day is a battle to stand up and speak for those who cannot speak for themselves. Now more than ever we need to work together to make a difference and protect our Mother Earth. For more on how you can become a Wildlife Warrior visit www.wildlifewarriors.org ððð¼

    But Blossom the Possum isn't the only animal. The Koala population in Australia is depleting alarmingly because Koalas are slower animals and for them to escape hurriedly from the tumultuous fire is very difficult. Besides that, their only source of food and nutrition, the Eucalyptus trees are slowly dying out as well, due to the leaves being highly inflammable. 
    While we pray for the safe rescue of more animals in Australia, we also urge you to make donations and/or help out in any way that you can.
