Harry Kane Just Won England Their First World Cup Match Since 2010 In A Truly Spectacular Fashion
ADMIN posted a blog entry in FDF Online News
As the final whistle blew in Volgograd, the England fans breathed a sigh of relief as they picked up their first victory at a World Cup since 2010. Fans rejoiced in the streets of London and why not? They had just witnessed England win at a World Cup for the first time in 8 years with a genuinely praiseworthy performance. © Reuters Although England fans had to wait until the 91st minute of the match before roaring, it was their captain Harry Kane they really rooted for as he led from the front and headed in the winner. In a team devoid of “superstars”, Harry Kane, owned the show against Tunisia and showed exactly why he's one of the best strikers in the world right now. Kane – The Predator Having scored 30 goals in the Premier League in the season gone by, Harry Kane serves as the only real goal scoring outlet that England can consistently rely on. As pundits decipher the various facets of his game, it was his biggest quality on display against Tunisia, his tenacity. On a day when England's finishing was extremely woeful and his hold up play, surprisingly suspect, he realized that set plays served as his best chance to score on the day. © Reuters What followed was the perfect execution of training ground set pieces. Kane wasn't the first to react on both the corners that resulted in goals, but his predatory instincts meant that he found himself unmarked when the ball eventually fell to his feet. Such game intelligence was previously credited to Thomas Muller who desperately fell short against Mexico. © Reuters Neither did Gabriel Jesus or Kylian Mbappe do enough in their first matches. However, Kane's display against Tunisia proved that great strikers don't necessarily need to have the best of games. Rather, it is their penchant to draw goals from unlikely situations which puts them among the best. Combine Kane's tenacity with his finishing, passing and physical abilities and we have a textbook striker who will prove to be one of the best for many years to come. Kane – The Leader While the technical aspects of Kane's game are undoubtedly brilliant, it is something far more intangible that is likely to make him a footballing immortal. His passion and desire to lead a team and see them through really sets him apart. © Reuters His discipline and regimen with his club have regularly been lauded and it is that level of dedication and focus that he brings to this team. And the result was there to witness. The entire team rallied behind their captain and pounced on him as England broke the deadlock. Subsequently, the vanity of such a moment did not consume him as he caught the game by the scruff of the neck and scored the winner just when his team needed him most. In the days preceding the game, Kane arrogantly proclaimed that he wished to emulate Ronaldo's hat-trick in his first game. Given how unforgiving the media has been to him this season, it seemed like a reckless statement to make. However, he scored a brace, and came very close to achieving that feat which in itself is a massive statement of intent. With such a high performance benchmark, expectations from Kane are very high, but with such talent and self-belief, few doubt that he could emerge as one of the stars of this World Cup. -
Here's Your First Look At Samsung's Foldable Smartphone And It Doesn't Look Impressive
ADMIN posted a blog entry in FDF Online News
In the past year, we've been hearing rumours about Samsung working on a foldable smartphone that would feature a single screen. Samsung has been testing the bendable and flexible screen for years. The holy grail of smartphones was almost near completion and was called Project Valley. The project was later reworked and the potential smartphone has been bestowed the name “Galaxy X”. © Twitter An alleged prototype of the smartphone recently surfaced on the internet and we can only conclude that it didn't meet anybody's expectation. Even though the smartphone is a prototype, we were expecting something entirely different. What's weird is that this smartphone doesn't really look like a prototype as it looks more like a finished product. What's underwhelming about this device is that it looks exactly like the ZTE Axon M. It basically has two screens, one at the front and the other at the back. The two screens fold up using hinges just like on the ZTE device and we're hoping this isn't what Project Valley promised. © Twitter Project Valley has been in the works since 2015 while keeping the Galaxy S6 in mind. Since the smartphone is foldable and not the screen, these pictures suggest that two large screens are working as one and may also work as two separate displays. It's kind of expected to see Samsung not release this phone as it would not have been taken seriously, especially since the company has been boasting about foldable displays for years. Samsung has never made it clear when we can expect a true foldable smartphone; however, we can only know for sure later this year. -

5 Things To Talk About On Your First Date So The Chances Of A Second One Seem Brighter
ADMIN posted a blog entry in FDF Online News
We did an article recently on 'things to avoid talking about on your first date' and most people demanded we talk about what should be talked about on the first date instead. Fair enough. It's a nervous affair. You've just met her off Tinder or at a bar or even at a friend's party and you've hit it off well and have asked her out for a date. And guess what, she says yes! Let the nervousness settle in and tell yourself you're going to have a blast on your date. © Thinsktock Of course, the usual tricks of the trade like being confident, polite and gentleman like are too old to keep telling you about them, so instead we're going to talk about things you should talk about on your first date with her, to obviously get her interested in you, so you can have a second date! Here are 5 things you should talk about on your first date. Let Her Know You're Nervous It's a bit endearing to let her know you're nervous on your first date. It tells her you're confident enough to spill the beans about how you actually feel. Chances are that's she's nervous too, so coming and admitting you're nervous can be a great icebreaker. It just helps take the pressure off. Ask Questions Women usually don't like men who just talk about themselves or don't talk at all. So keep a balance. Ask her questions and answer her questions as well. If you ask her what she loves doing in her free time, she will ask you the same question back, Just don't go on about it for 30 minutes! Ask her another question, to get to know her better, while she does the same. If you're shy or don't know what to ask, since you're nervous, think of some questions before your date and keep them ready. It's okay to do a bit of homework! Play A Quick Rapid Fire If you're a confident guy you can easily play a quick game of rapid fire with her. This is the best way to break the ice and have some fun. You can shoot some questions her way with two choices and get her to answer them, in order to get to know her better. For instance, you can start with 'dogs or cats' and follow up with similar questions. Talk About A Funny Experience I am sure you've had plenty of experiences and adventures and you can definitely pull a funny one out and narrate it to her. If you're thinking about how to tickle her funny bone, there isn't a better way to do it than with a story that's absolutely funny. Make sure you narrate it in a way that sounds funny and not lame. If she laughs, you're good to go. Be Attentive You can pick on cues on what to talk to her about by gauging what she says. So pay very close attention to what she says at all times. If she's talking about what she does, ask her something related to that or talk about something you derive from that, to carry the flow of the conversation. If you have the flow going, you're good for the entire evening. You can have many conversations thereon and end the evening on a good note and a possible second date. So, in case you're super nervous for your date, don't be. Just be cool and confident and say the right things. -

7 Things To Avoid Talking About On Your First Date That Will Ensure A Second One
ADMIN posted a blog entry in FDF Online News
If you're going on your first date with a woman you really dig, your main agenda should not be to take her home. Wait, Why do you look so surprised? Come on, give it a minute! Your main agenda should be to figure how to get to date number two with her! (c)Thinkstock/Getty Images Most men can't wait to hit the sack with them ladies, without realising that it takes at least 3 good dates to actually make her fall for you. If you're just looking for a one night stand, then maybe this article is not for you. Or maybe this article can work for those who're looking to score too. You just need to be a good 'conversationist' and keep off a few topics, for your own good. If not, you're just gonna go back home with bad memories and no phone number. So here are 7 main things you should definitely not talk about, on your first date with her. 1. Your Ex, Her Ex You really don't want to open any X-files on your first date, do you? Why talk about your past when you have so much to talk about in the present. If you really want to talk about your dating life from the past, maybe keep it vague? Don't divulge unnecessary deets, because you never know what your date discards or what she takes into account from your past. In any case, if you do get that second date, you have all the time to open up to them about personal stuff, later. (c)Thinkstock/Getty Images 2. Don't Go On About Yourself It's okay to talk about yourself and let her know you a little on the first date, but it's not okay to only talk about yourself. Your first date with her should be like a game of ping-pong, where both of you get an equal chance to talk and share things from your life. If the conversation is only about you, she's just going to assume you're conceited or full of yourself, and you don't want her to think that! (c)Thinkstock/Getty Images 3. Politics Or Religion I mean, yeah, you can talk about politics or religion but first dates should be about 'where you grew up' or 'what you like doing in your free time' kinda questions. You can talk about your political or religious preferences or have a debate about either, but that would probably lead to a heavier discussion and take you away from getting to know everything else about her; the more basic, fundamental stuff. Keep things simple on the first date. (c)Thinkstock/Getty Images 4. Money Talks Well, some people have it and some people don't and if you have it, don't talk about it and make her uncomfortable. Just, don't. You don't need to discuss your personal or official finances with her. At least not right now. Honestly, anything money related should not be coming out from your mouth, but just your wallet, if you're paying for the date i.e. (c)Thinkstock/Getty Images 5. Lower Your Self Esteem You may not like a few things about yourself but that doesn't mean she has to know about them? It's absolutely fine to have flaws and faults, but to lament about them instead of doing something about it, is a turn off and just lame. She definitely doesn't need to know how you think you're not good looking enough, or how you hate the hair on your ass. If you're fishing for compliments by making her realise your flaws, stop fishing! At least don't bring up things you don't like about yourself on the first date. (c)Thinkstock/Getty Images 6. Revealing More Than You Should In your excitement to just talk, don't go overboard by talking about too much too soon. Keep some of it layered, and in mystery. Women like a mysterious man and if they are curious about you they will surely want to see you for a second date. So, if you're talking about a future, don't reveal more than you have to. For all you know, you'll see her cringing through her meal while you tell her the names of your future son and daughter. (c)Thinkstock/Getty Images 7. *** Talk Only if the conversation naturally flows towards ***, then it's fine to talk about it, but don't bring it up independently because you never know how she'll react to it. If you're out for a hook-up and she's in for the same too, then perhaps it's okay to discuss *** in detail, because you both are on the same page, but if you really want that second date, wait it out? What's the rush? (c)Thinkstock/Getty Images So, there we have it, 7 main things you should not talk about on your first date and if you really refrain from talking about these things, we can definitely say with utmost surety, you're gonna get that second date, mate! -

This Is What A Crash Diet Does To The Body In The First 30 Days And It's Pretty Scary
ADMIN posted a blog entry in FDF Online News
The idea of losing those excess pounds in a couple of days is really fascinating. Everybody wants a quick solution in today's time. This has resulted in people choosing a crash diet over other nutritious diets for fat loss. While this may be a good move to see the needle moving on the scale but it may be a bad idea in the long run. Your body may go through various changes which are not good for your overall health and can deter your overall fitness as well. Here's an idea of the changes that your body goes through when you deprive it from the things that it needs in the first 30 days. Those Quick Numbers That You Lose Aren't Fat © YouTube Before you give me this baseless argument that crash diets are effective as they yield results in the first week itself, let me just make it clear that it's all water loss initially. Your body burns glycogen much before it starts burning fat as energy source. Glycogen is the break down product of carbohydrates stored in your liver and muscles when you have enough carbs. Every gram of glycogen has water attached to it. So the first thing that happens when you deprive your body from calories or carbs or both by going on a crash diet is that this water leaves the body. During a crash diet, this water loss is more rapid and results in dehydration as well. You may feel the symptoms in the form of fatigue and dizziness. You Start Losing Your Muscle © Pixabay When you cut 1000 calories or more suddenly, your body takes an aggressive approach. It burns down muscle protein for fuel. According to various researches, your body loses three times more muscle on a crash diet than you would if you took things gradually. With the crash diet, there are more chances that you will look like a person who is skinny fat and far away from being in shape. Metabolism Becomes Sluggish Like I told you above that you will be losing muscles if you go on a crash diet, this will also result in slowing down your metabolic rate. If you have more muscles, your body burns more number of calories while walking, talking or exercising. But once you lose muscles, you metabolic rate will go for a toss and you will burn much lesser calories than before. Your body will get into the 'survival mode' and will try to store as much calories as possible after losing initial weight loss. You Lose Your Strength Your strength is directly dependent on your muscles. So when you start crash dieting and your body loses muscles, you lose strength also. This is not just limited to the muscles strength but it weakens your immunity too. This makes your body weak from inside. When you don't provide enough nutrition to your body, it becomes weak from inside. You're Mentally Exhausted © YouTube Ever spoken to someone who has been on a crash diet for a while now? Try it. You'll see the frustration on their face; the frustration of not having enough food and starving yourself. People who barely take a thousand calorie in a crash diet can't even perform the daily chores of life with a happy mood. Your body needs fuel to move and work. If you'll deprive it from that fuel it will retaliate in various ways. Staying too much hungry increases your stress hormone corticosterone which makes your brain susceptible to stress. Not only does this make your day worse, it will also contribute to the binge eating pattern once you decide to come out of the crash diet.

When it comes to insanity in fashion, we turn to Ranveer Singh, just like we turn to Rohit Shetty when we want insanity in movies. Naturally, our hopes are meteoric now that the two have come together for 'Simmba'. Not only is Ranveer all set to play the character of a badass cop in the movie, it also marks the debut of Sara Ali Khan. If all these reasons were not enough to keep us on our toes about the movie anyway, this new development sure has. The video of the first day shoot is out, and Ranveer's moustache has stolen everyone's thunder. He looks super macho. In fact, we think he has never looked better. Take a look. © Instagram Even though we are getting major 'Singham' vibes, Ranveer, as usual, effortlessly manages to make the character his own. The look, we feel, is unabashedly playful, yet boasts of oodles of machismo. Take a look at the video here. A post shared by Rohit Shetty (@itsrohitshetty) on Jun 6, 2018 at 4:26am PDT Ranveer clicked a bunch of pictures with fans as well, proudly displaying his badass new moustache. © Instagram © Instagram © Instagram © Instagram Good going, Baba!
