twitter handle - @ZKPadfi website - https://zkpad.io/ ZkPad, Launchpad 2.0 During our thought process to create ZkPad, we used a lot of Launchpads on many chains and studied many of them. From this, we were able to find many possible improvements, which we would like to implement on ZkPad. These improvements are fundamental to us, and represent a drastic change in the way we position ourselves as to the role of a launchpad, both in the community and in the projects we launch. This change in ideological positioning could be called Launchpad 2.0

Here are the fundamental points that we believe describe what Launchpad 2.0 is. On-chain system A major point of dissatisfaction that we have had with Launchpad projects, is the global lottery system. Indeed, this system is 100% of the time off-chain, and very opaque for all users. We cannot know how lottery draws are made if there was cheating, why we got an allowance or why we didn’t. And it is impossible for us to verify because all this data is off-chain and private. The Starknet VM, and many blockchains allow us to perform these calculations on-chain, and therefore to benefit from a much clearer and fairer system for everyone. Besides, we believe that web3 is made for just that, ie to prove that we did things in a fair way, and to do it in a transparent way. Everything will be clear and transparent on ZkPad, with the provision of tools to analyze our lotteries, all of which will be on-chain and verifiable. In addition, the Whitelists obtained for a project are final and non-exchangeable on other launchpads. Indeed, even if you do not wish to take part in the IDO, and you have nevertheless obtained lottery tickets, it is impossible for you to send this Whitelist, and to make another buyer benefit from it, who is interested and wishes to support the project for the long term. We are therefore going to develop our architecture entirely on-chain, and tokenize the Whitelists in the form of NFTs, in order to make them exchangeable before the start of the Private sale of a project. This will make our platform fairer and more transparent for everyone while offering possibilities never before seen elsewhere, especially with arbitrage. Incorporating DeFi On this point, we noticed that almost all the launchpads on other chains systematically offer the same system, which is to lock its native tokens of the platform, in order to have lottery tickets for future IDOs. We are fully aligned with the vision of forcing people to lock tokens for a fixed period of time and to encourage locking over a long period of time, giving away more lottery tickets based on the number of tokens locked, as well as the locked time. However, we do not find it normal, even bordering on laughable, the fact of not allowing the staking of LP in order to obtain lottery tickets. Indeed, liquidity is very important for any project, and allowing protocol players to lock LPs in order to win lottery tickets is, in our opinion, essential in order to build a solid project over the long term. We will therefore allow the liquidity locking in order to obtain Whitelists in IDOs on ZkPad, but we will also offer higher APRs for LP stakers, insofar as they take more risks, in particular related to impermanent loss, and also insofar as they meet a need of the protocol to have locked liquidity for the future of the project as well as its sustainability. On the other hand, we find it absurd to have so many locked tokens on our contracts and let them “sleep” here. However, this is the case for all the launchpad platforms that we have encountered, the tokens are locked for a fixed period on the contracts, and they do not move and simply generate yield at a very low rate for users. We believe in ZkPad, that we can put these tokens to use in broader Vault strategies, in order to generate better income for our users. The strategies put in place will be explained later, but we want to change this traditional vision of launchpads, and propose, using DeFi levers, innovative strategies to make the best use of locked tokens in ZkPad vaults. Endorsement of projects launching on the platform We were able to observe and notice the difficulty that launchpads can encounter when it comes to checking and validating projects launching on the platform. Indeed, a problem often arises during the validation phase of a project on the launchpad. On the one hand, there is a tension between accepting only quality projects, bringing an answer to a real need of the users, and the fact of wanting to launch more and more projects, even if it means closing the eyes on some negative points of the project and to continue to launch more and more projects to favour the profit. On the other hand, we have also noticed that a lot of launchpad users use their IDO allowances for short-term profit, resulting in an overall lack of interest in the projects launched on launchpads. This raises a question for us, which is how to avoid overdoing it and launching anything and everything on the launchpad just to generate profits, to the detriment of the community, and how to keep our users interested in the projects launched on ZkPad for the long term. Both of these points are necessary to make a launchpad that is built for the long term and satisfies all parties in the ecosystem. From there we made several decisions to address these issues. First, we believe that common sense in this situation, and this point is central to understanding what we call Launchpad 2.0, is to mix the functions of Launchpad, as well as an incubator. Indeed, as a first step, to benefit from our network made up of private investors, builders, developers, experts in marketing, blockchain, human resources, and in other sectors, to projects launching on our Launchpad is for us the minimum to do in order to facilitate the work of the projects, but also and above all to guarantee to our community that the projects launching on the launchpad are accompanied by serious and competent people, which is in our opinion the minimum of the guarantee that we can offer to our community, in order to always try to make them stay in the long term. A second point relating to incubation would also be to own tokens of the projects that we are launching, in order to financially guarantee our involvement and our confidence in the project. Initially as ZkPad, the company, but later as ZkPad, the DAO. Indeed, we will detail the subject later, but investing in projects as a DAO will also be a way of choosing the best projects to launch, but also encouraging holders to think in the long term with the projects that we are launching since they will own part of it also through the DAO. Governance This is where all the above-mentioned elements will finally make sense and will fit together. Before this last point, we have only mentioned improvements, but these improvements would be too little to justify the term Launchpad 2.0, what is missing is coherence between these elements. This coherence is brought about by the CAD. Indeed, the DAO will play a major role in motivating our investors to support projects launching on ZkPad over the long term. This is done through 2 mechanisms. The first is the choice of projects launching on ZkPad. The governance will be able to veto if a project launched on the Launchpad is not interesting to them, and in this case, the project will not be launched on our platform. In a second step, the DAO will be in charge of a part of the tokens of the projects launched on ZkPad. These tokens will be subject to vesting, this will encourage investors, and therefore members of the DAO to always think on the long term, either before choosing the projects, but also before investing in them. In addition, the system governing the DAO will be ready almost at launch, but we will only launch its operation after a few weeks, or even months, in order to be certain that the protocol has enough token holders in order to have a DAO which has sense, and which is truly decentralized. We really want to bring added value via this DAO, and hope that it really makes sense. Conclusion Through ZkPad we want to bring a new quality standard in launchpad, for all the actors of the web3 ecosystem, this standard that we called Launchpad 2.0. We want to give the metronome to the Starknet ecosystem in terms of quality as well as innovation, and it is in this sense that we will present the detailed Whitepaper of the ZkPad protocol on Saturday, March 5 at 19:00 UTC..

Random Facts About Everything

The Burj Khalifa is so tall you can see two sunsets from it in one day.

You can see the sunset happen at ground level, and then if you get the elevator all the way up the building you can see it set again from the top.

Oranges were originally green.

The first oranges ever imported from to the West were from Southeast Asia and were tangerine-pomelo hybrids that were green in color.

in fact, oranges grown in warmer parts of the world such as Vietnam and Thailand stay green throughout their lifetime.

Russia has more surface area than Pluto.

With 6,601,668 square miles of land mass, Russia beats Pluto’s 6,427,805 square miles of surface area, and dwarfs the world’s second biggest country, Canada, which has a land mass of 3,855,103 square miles.

You can fire an arrow around an object to hit a target.

Both English and Arabic historic sources have mentioned skilled archers curving arrows around objects.

It has become a practice among some modern-day archers who have proved it can be done.

In fact, an arrow can even be fired with a 180 degree curve to hit an object on the other side of a wall – amazing right?!

There is no specific time zone at the South Pole.

This is because all the longitude lines on the planet meet up there (because the planet isn’t flat, yo).

The stations on the South Pole use the time zone of the country that owns them, meaning two stations near each other could be using two different time zones.

Surfer slang “hang ten” means having all 10 toes over your board’s edge when riding a wave.

This is a move that can usually only be done on a heavy longboard.

There was a type of Pterodactyl with a bigger wingspan than a fighter jet.

The remarkable beast’s remains were dug up in Romania.

Standing as tall as a giraffe, it’s believed the flying reptile would have weighed about half a ton.

With a wingspan of 39 foot, it would have been bigger than the roughly 33-foot wingspan of an F16 fighter jet.

Scientists genetically modified goats to spin spider silk from their udders.

US Professor Randy Lewis transplanted a gene into the goats from a spider that allows the goats to produce milk containing an extra protein.

This is then extracted from the goat milk and spun into spider silk thread.

The British Queen’s handbag is a body language communication device.

It is used by her to relay secret and silent messages to her staff.

Broccoli is a “man-made” food.

So human’s just engineered broccoli out of nowhere? Nope.

Well, not exactly.

Broccoli only came about after years and years of selective breeding between wild cabbage plants that started around the 6^th century BC.

In fact, the word “broccoli” comes from the Italian for “the flowering crest of a cabbage”.

High heels were originally men’s shoes.

High heels came into circulation on the shoe circuit in roughly 10 BC.

They were worn by men of the Persian Cavalry to help their boots stay in their stirrups when riding horses.

There is a smoke alarm for the deaf.

Invented by a team of Japanese scientists and engineers, this lifesaving device works by spraying vaporized wasabi into the air, which notifies deaf people of a fire – it will even wake them up if they’re sleeping!

This invention won one of the IG Nobel Prizes in 2011, a spoof of the Nobel Prizes, for inventions that “first make people laugh, and then make them think”.

Peanuts, walnuts, almonds, cashews and pistachios aren’t nuts.

They’re classed as seeds, because a nut is defined as “a hard-shelled dry fruit or seed with a separable rind or shell and interior kernel”.

Armadillos have shells so hard they can deflect a bullet.

One poor Texan man learned this the hard way when he shot at an armadillo only to have the bullet ricochet off the indestructible beast, and back at him into his jaw! The man was airlifted to hospital.

Amazingly, the armadillo just walked off unscathed.

Only a quarter of the Sahara Desert is sandy.

Most of this gargantuan desert is covered in gravel, although it also has its own mountain ranges and oases.

Also, it isn’t the world’s largest desert, because…

Antarctica is the world’s largest desert.

The Antarctic Polar Desert covers the Antarctica continent and covers roughly 5.5 million square miles.

The Sahara Desert covers roughly 3.6 million square miles.

In 1960, a cow got hit by a chunk of falling U.S. satellite in Cuba.

This was during a time where tensions between Havana and Washington were at their highest.

So the Cubans decided to make the best out of a bad situation and had a good laugh at their American neighbors.

They paraded a cow through the Cuban streets with a sign on it that said “Eisenhower, you murdered one of my sisters!”

Your nose and ears never stop growing.

They are the only two parts of your body that keep growing when all your other features’ growth comes to an end.

For you young ‘uns out there this fact is going to blow your mind – you had to use a disc to sign up to an internet provider!

The world wasn’t always full of all 5G’s just knocking about in the planetary ether – hell, back then I think 3G would’ve been mind-blowing enough, let alone not having to use a disc to sign up to the internet!

Bees can fly higher than Mount Everest!

Bees can fly at levels up to 29,525 feet above sea level – higher than the planet’s tallest Mountain!

Until 2015, it was illegal to dance in Japan after midnight.

This was a law introduced in 1948 to crack down on dance halls that acted as fronts for illicit activities and it was only revoked in 2015.

In 1997 a cargo ship lost 4.8 million Lego bits in a storm. They are still washing up today.

The container ship Tokio Express was hauling cargo across stormy seas on February the 13^th, when a rogue wave crashed over the decks and caused some of her cargo to become loose and wash overboard.

One such container contained a shipment of Lego including octopuses, dragons, flippers and flowers.

These pieces are often found on the beaches of Cornwall in the UK, whenever there’s a particularly bad storm.

In Tokyo, Japan, there is a hedgehog cafe.

You can go to this establishment and pay 1,000 Yen to go in, have a cappuccino and play with and cuddle some amazing hedgehogs!

Just be careful when you’re cuddling them because they aren’t exactly soft and fluffy!

The smallest dinosaur ever discovered is only 16 inches long.

Discovered in China, the Microraptor is one of the most recent dinosaur discoveries and is the smallest ever found.

Most of the specimens that have been found have also been fully grown, so the baby Microraptors would have been even smaller!

In England, pigeon poop is property of the Crown.

This is because pigeon poop could be used to make gunpowder.

Because of this, King George I declared all pigeon poop to be property of the Crown in the 18^th Century.

The letter ‘E’ is the most common letter in the English language.

It appears in roughly 11% of all words used in the English language, and is used 12 times in this very sentence alone!

New Zealand is actually part of a much bigger, sunken landmass.

Dubbed Zealandia, it was only discovered after humans had traveled to space as they were able to easily see it from above the Earth.

Some scientists believe it should be formally recognized as the world’s 8^th continent.

Feeding your cat milk could be making them sick. Like some humans, adult cats don’t have enough of the lactase enzyme to digest lactose from milk, causing them to vomit, have diarrhea, or get gassy. Cats only have enough of that enzyme when they’re born and during the early years of their life. Find out why cats are also afraid of cucumbers.

4.Wimbledon tennis balls are kept at 68 degrees Fahrenheit

The temperature of tennis balls affects how the ball bounces. At warmer temperatures, the gas molecules inside the ball expand making the ball bounce higher.

6.Bananas glow blue under black lights

To the everyday eye under normal conditions, ripe bananas appear yellow due to organic pigments called carotenoids. When bananas ripen, chlorophyll begins to break down. This pigment is the element that makes bananas glow, or “fluoresce,” under UV lights and appear blue.

8.Irish bars used to be closed on St. Patrick’s Day

You might associate St. Patrick’s Day with wearing green and drinking so much you think you actually see leprechauns.

12.South American river turtles talk in their eggs

Turtles don’t have vocal cords and their ears are internal, so scientists believed that turtles were deaf and didn’t communicate through sounds. However, research has found that turtles actually communicate at an extremely low frequency that sounds like “clicks, clucks, and hoots” that can only be heard through a hydrophone (a microphone used underwater). These sounds even come from the egg before the turtle hatches. Researchers hypothesize that this helps all the turtle siblings hatch at once.

13.The British Empire was the largest empire in world history

According to the World Atlas, an empire “is a group of nations or people that are under the rule of a powerful government or an emperor of a territory usually larger than a kingdom.” The British Empire was most powerful in the 1920s when it ruled over 23 percent of the world’s population.

26.Cap’n Crunch’s full name is Horatio Magellan Crunch

He’s also been called out for only having the bars of a Navy commander, but the so-called cap’n held his ground on Twitter, arguing that captaining the S. S. Guppy with his crew “makes an official Cap’n in any book!” For more fun facts, find out other characters you didn’t know had full names.

27.The CIA headquarters has its own Starbucks, but baristas don’t write names on the cups

Its receipts say “Store Number 1” instead of “Starbucks,” and its workers need an escort to leave their work posts. Find out why “Pequod” was almost the name for Starbucks.

28.Giraffe tongues can be 20 inches long

Their dark bluish black color is probably to prevent sunburn.

29.There’s only one U.S. state capital without a McDonald’s

Montpelier, Vermont, doesn’t have any of those Golden Arches. It also happens to have the smallest population of any state capital, with just 7,500 residents. Find out the farthest you can possibly be from a McDonald’s in the United States.

30.Europeans were scared of eating tomatoes when they were introduced

Scholars think Hernán Cortés brought the seeds in 1519 with the intent of the fruits being used ornamentally in gardens. By the 1700s, aristocrats started eating tomatoes, but they were convinced the fruits were poison because people would die after eating them. In reality, the acidity from the tomatoes brought out lead in their pewter plates, so they’d died of lead poisoning. These facts about our world are so surprising, they’re hard to believe.

PART 5 TOP 30 BEST FACTS WHICH CAN BLOW YOUR MIND🤯

2020-12-12T23:30:00.001+05:30

Random Facts About Everything

1. Hydrogen Is Flammable

The Hindenburg disaster marked the end of the airship era, killing 35 passengers, and one member of the ground crew. The airship caught fire because of a spark that ignited leaking hydrogen. As the Germans discovered, hydrogen is an extremely flammable and dangerous substance, and using it to fill airships perhaps wasn’t the smartest idea.

2. Random Advice Fact

Abraham Lincoln grew his iconic beard in part on the recommendation of an 11-year-old girl, who suggested it to him via fan mail.

3. A Fact Full of Hot Air

Here’s the most random of random facts: The first passengers to ever ride in a hot air balloon were a trio of sheep, duck, and rooster.

4. The Great Debate

Some scientists still argue the facts about whether corn is a vegetable or a grain—or maybe even a fruit! Who would have thought that something so harmless could cause such a controversy?

5. The Chance Case of the Curious Mummy

Found in 1991 in the Ötztal Alps, ötzi “the iceman” is the earliest natural human mummy ever found in Europe. Ötzi was alive from sometime between 3400 and 3100 BCE. The most surprising thing about him? He had tattoos! And not just a couple…researchers have identified a total of 61 different tattoos covering his body. That means he’s not only the oldest tattooed person ever found, but also (probably) one of the oldest ancestors to today’s Brooklyn hipsters.

The tattoo ink itself was produced from ash or soot and is believed to have been used as a form of pain relief.

6. Mmmm, Random BBQ Smell

If you could breathe in space without dying, it would in fact smell like barbecue, gunpowder, and diesel. These combined scents are created by dying stars.

7. Eat Your Vegetables!

During World War II, British intelligence spread the rumor that the Royal Air Force pilots enjoyed superior night vision because they ate copious amounts of carrots. The real purpose of the rumor was to keep German intelligence from discovering the Brits’ advanced use of radar. Of course, there’s just one little problem.

The fact is, while the vitamin A in carrots is good for eye health, it probably won’t help you detect enemy forces in the dark from an airplane.

8. Random Access Boo-Yah

Here’s a fact for the ages: a singing birthday card has more computing power than the entire Allied forces had during World War II.

9. A Recycled Fact

There is a swirl of garbage in the Pacific Ocean, roughly the size of Texas. It’s known as the Great Pacific Garbage Patch. While it’s often described as “an island of garbage,” the GPGP is more accurately seen as something like garbage soup: a massive portion of the ocean with a high concentration of plastics, sludge, and other debris.

It’s disgusting. But no reason to despair! There are a number of wildly innovative and interesting proposals to clean up the patch. Here’s hoping they work out!

10. Bear-ly Succeeding

The Polish army adopted a bear named Wojtek during World War II and gave it the official rank of private so that it could be transported around from place to place with them, carrying their equipment and helping to boost morale. After a few years around humans, Wojtek loved beer, cigarettes, and wrestling.

In fact, the army loved Wojtek so much that he was eventually promoted to corporal.

11. A Fishy Fact

Once a year, in the Honduran city of Yoro, it rains fish. It’s aptly named the Lluvia de Peces (or Rain of Fish). In May or June every year, like clockwork, a torrential rainstorm rolls through town. In its wake, a mass of living fish can be found in the streets. The phenomenon was confirmed by a National Geographic team in the 1970s…

…but whether or not the fish are literally raining from the sky is still unknown. Some scientists believe the fish could be carried into town by waterspouts or water tornadoes, which drop their strange parcels over land when they run out of steam. Whatever the explanation, we hope the residents of Yoro like seafood.

12. A Cat by Any Other Name

The cougar goes by more names than any other animal. You might know it as a puma, mountain lion, panther, catamount, or one of another 40 English, 18 native South American and 25 native North American names.

13. Catchy Tune

When Kazakh gold medalist Maria Dmitrienko took the podium in Kuwait for the medal ceremony she had trained her whole life for, she was shocked to hear an unfamiliar song playing in place of her national anthem. It turned out that the song playing was the fictional Kazakh anthem from the satirical film Borat, which mocks her country of Kazakhstan.

The event’s staff had mistaken it for the country’s actual anthem. Needless to say, more than a few people watching were unimpressed.

14. Sting or Bite?

Here’s a biting fact: a mosquito has 47 teeth. These teeth are located at the end of their proboscis and are used not used to chew food like our teeth. They are used to cut through the skin or layers of protective clothes. Either way, they can buzz off.

15. Easy, Breezy, Beautiful Cover Whale

Many expensive perfumes contain whale poop. More specifically they contain ambergris, which is a waxy substance produced in the intestines of sperm whales. The fragrance is iconic; some say it’s like bottling the smell of the ocean breeze through a 5-star hotel window.

16. Texas True Facts

The phrase “don’t mess with Texas” was originally an anti-littering slogan. Put that in your random facts notebook!

17. Accidental Hero

Bao Xishun, a Mongolian herdsman and the current record holder for World’s Tallest Man, used his incredibly long arms to remove plastic from the stomachs of two dolphins, saving their lives. Bao stands 7 feet 8.95 inches tall and each arm extends over 3 feet long. All other attempts at saving the dolphins had failed.

18. Searching for Giants

The expedition of Lewis and Clark is famous for many reasons, but they had one goal you might not expect: Thomas Jefferson asked them to find a mammoth. Turns out, Jefferson had a thing for mammoths (or, more accurately, American Mastodons). He was completely enamored with the extinct behemoths, and held out hope that they continued to live many miles away in the west of America.

So when he sent Lewis and Clark out on their famous expedition, he told them to look for mammoths. What a discovery that would have been!

19. Fun Fact (Unless You’re a Whale)

The loneliest creature on earth is a whale that has been calling for a mate for two decades. Researchers identified the whale’s abnormally high call over 20 years ago. The unknown whale is called ‘lonely’ because it communicates at a frequency not used by any other whale in the North Pacific, and so far, it has never received a response.

20. A Not-So Random Name

Here’s a juicy fact. Watermelons may be delicious today, but they weren’t always. The melons originated in Africa and were first cultivated solely for their water content, not for taste—their flavor was very bitter.

21. Peel Me

Bananas share 50% of their DNA with humans. You’re looking a little yellow there.

22. Gorgeous Ghosts

Did you ever hear the expression, “That gives me the willies?” Did you ever wonder what the heck “willies” are? It’s likely actually the name for heartbroken ghosts, Wilis, from Slavic folklore. The romantic ballet Giselle features these beautiful zombies prominently, and the description of these ghosts is absolutely terrifying.

In their long white dresses and wedding veils, the Wilis wander the moonlit forests in search of men to kill. They travel in packs, and their method of killing is to round up the victim and force him to dance until his heart gives out. Creepy, huh?

23. Oscar Who?

Oscar Hammerstein is the only person named Oscar to win an Academy Award or “‘Oscar.” Hammerstein won two Best Original Song awards in the 1940s.

24. Odd Eyes You’ve Got There

The eyes of Ramses IV, who died in 1149 BC, were replaced with a couple of small onions during the mummification process. Ancient Egyptians associated the onion with mysticism and though them to possess magic powers.

25. Not for All the Gold in the World

Almost 30% of the world’s gold reserves are held in a vault underneath the island of Manhattan. The Federal Reserve Bank of New York takes up a full block between Maiden Lane and William, Liberty and Nassau streets, and it holds the world’s largest gold depository. Only 5% of the USA’s gold reserves are kept there though—the rest belongs to international banks like the IMF.

26. May I Offer You a Night Cap?

Thomas Jefferson hated formal events, and he often greeted foreign dignitaries in his pyjamas.

27. Space Pharaohs

Scholars generally agree that the Ancient Egyptian empire lasted for thousands of years-which can be hard to wrap your head around. To put it in perspective, the Great Pyramid of Giza was built roughly between 2550 and 2490 BC, while Cleopatra took the throne in 51 BC. That’s a lot of facts and information, so let me put it into perspective for you:

That means that Cleopatra’s reign was closer in time to the freaking moon landing than it was to the building of the Great Pyramid.

28. Do Whales Have Irregular Heartbeats?

A Volkswagen Beetle is the same size as a Blue Whale’s heart. Its arteries are wide enough to swim through. That being said, we would advise you do not try to swim through a Blue Whale’s heart after reading this fact, just to see if this is true. Some things are better left undone.

29. Mirror, Mirror on the Wall

The “mirror test” is one of the key ways scientists determine the intelligence of a species. It involves placing an animal in front of a mirror to observe whether it can realize that the image it sees is a reflection of itself rather than a different animal, and many species fail. Nevertheless, some individual animals can stand out from the crowd.

For example, the late, beloved Koko the Gorilla passed this test, even thought the gorilla as species in general failed.

30. Sneaky System

Ukrainian pole Vaulter Sergei Bubka had it all worked out—he repeatedly and deliberately broke the world pole vault record by the smallest possible height so he could cash in on a Nike bonus with each new world record. In a two-year span between 1991-1993, he broke his own world record 14 times.

Best diet plan for getting muscular body

Written by Takla gamer and team on December 11,2020

Bodybuilding is centered around building your body’s muscles through weightlifting and nutrition.

Whether recreational or competitive, bodybuilding is often referred to as a lifestyle, as it involves both the time you spend in and outside the gym.

In order to maximize your results from the gym, you must focus on your diet, as eating the wrong foods can be detrimental to your bodybuilding goals.

This article explains what to eat and avoid on a bodybuilding diet and provides a one-week sample menu.

Bodybuilding Basics

Bodybuilding differs from powerlifting or Olympic lifting in that it’s judged on a competitor’s physical appearance rather than physical strength.

As such, bodybuilders aspire to develop and maintain a well-balanced, lean and muscular physique.

To do this, many bodybuilders start with an off-season followed by an in-season way of eating — referred to as a bulking and cutting phase, respectively.

During the bulking phase, which can last months to years, bodybuilders eat a high-calorie, protein-rich diet and lift weights intensely with the goal of building as much muscle as possible.

The following cutting phase focuses on losing as much fat as possible while maintaining muscle mass developed during the bulking phase. This is achieved through specific changes in diet and exercise over a period of 12–26 weeks.

SUMMARY
Bodybuilding training and dieting is typically divided into two phases: bulking and cutting. The goal of the bulking phase is to build muscle, whereas the cutting phase is dedicated to preserving muscle while losing body fat.

Benefits of Bodybuilding

There are several health benefits associated with bodybuilding.

In order to maintain and build muscles, bodybuilders exercise frequently, performing both resistance and aerobic training.

Resistance training increases muscle strength and size. Muscle strength is highly correlated with a lower risk of dying from cancer, heart and kidney disease, as well as several other critical illnesses.

Aerobic exercise, which bodybuilders regularly implement to reduce body fat, improves heart health and significantly lowers your risk of developing or dying from heart disease — the number one killer in America.

In addition to exercise, bodybuilders also focus on their nutrition.

With careful planning, bodybuilders can eat in a way that not only supports their efforts in the gym but keeps them healthy too.

Following a healthy eating pattern, including nutrient-dense foods from all food groups in appropriate amounts, can significantly lower your risk of chronic diseases.

SUMMARY
Bodybuilders exercise regularly and may eat well-planned and nutrient-dense diets, both of which offer many health benefits.

Calorie Needs and Macronutrients

The goal for competitive bodybuilders is to increase muscle mass in the bulking phase and reduce body fat in the cutting phase. Hence, you consume more calories in the bulking phase than in the cutting phase.

How Many Calories Do You Need?

The easiest way to determine how many calories you need is to weigh yourself at least three times a week and record what you eat using a calorie tracking app.

If your weight stays the same, the daily number of calories you eat is your maintenance calories — in other words, you’re not losing or gaining weight, but maintaining it.

During your bulking phase, it’s recommended to increase your calorie intake by 15%. For example, if your maintenance calories are 3,000 per day, you should eat 3,450 calories per day (3,000 x 0.15 = 450) during your bulking phase.

When transitioning from a bulking to a cutting phase, you would instead decrease your maintenance calories by 15%, meaning you would eat 2,550 calories per day instead of 3,450.

As you gain weight in the bulking phase or lose weight in the cutting phase, you will need to adjust your calorie intake at least monthly to account for changes in your weight.

Increase your calories as you gain weight in the bulking phase and decrease your calories as you lose weight in the cutting phase for continued progression.

During either phase, it’s recommended not to lose or gain more than 0.5–1% of your body weight per week. This ensures that you don’t lose too much muscle during the cutting phase or gain too much body fat during the bulking phase.

Macronutrient Ratio

Once you establish the number of calories you need, you can determine your macronutrient ratio, which is the ratio between your protein, carbohydrate and fat intake.

Unlike the difference in your calorie needs between the bulking and cutting phase, your macronutrient ratio does not change.

Protein and carbs contain four calories per gram, and fat contains nine.

It’s recommended that you get :

30–35% of your calories from protein
55–60% of your calories from carbs
15–20% of your calories from fat

Here’s an example of the ratio for both a bulking and cutting phase:

	Bulking phase	Cutting phase
Calories	3,450	2,550
Protein (grams)	259–302	191–223
Carbs (grams)	474–518	351–383
Fat (grams)	58–77	43–57

These are general guidelines, so its best to consult with a registered dietitian to determine your individual needs based on your goals to make sure your diet is nutritionally adequate.

SUMMARY
Recommended calorie intake, but not your macronutrient ratio, differ between the bulking and cutting phase. To account for weight changes, adjust your calorie intake each month.

Bodybuilding Nutrition: Foods to Eat and Avoid

Like training, diet is a vital part of bodybuilding.

Eating the right foods in the appropriate amounts provides your muscles with the nutrients they need to recover from workouts and grow bigger and stronger.

Conversely, consuming the wrong foods or not consuming enough of the right ones will leave you with subpar results.

Here are foods you should focus on and foods to limit or avoid:

Foods to Focus On

The foods you eat don’t need to differ between the bulking and cutting phase — usually, it’s the amounts that do.

Foods to eat include:

Meats, poultry and fish: Sirloin steak, ground beef, pork tenderloin, venison, chicken breast, salmon, tilapia and cod.
Dairy: Yogurt, cottage cheese, low-fat milk and cheese.
Grains: Bread, cereal, crackers, oatmeal, quinoa, popcorn and rice.
Fruits: Oranges, apples, bananas, grapes, pears, peaches, watermelon and berries.
Starchy vegetables: Potatoes, corn, green peas, green lima beans and cassava.
Vegetables: Broccoli, spinach, leafy salad greens, tomatoes, green beans, cucumber, zucchini, asparagus, peppers and mushrooms.
Seeds and nuts: Almonds, walnuts, sunflower seeds, chia seeds and flax seeds.
Beans and legumes: Chickpeas, lentils, kidney beans, black beans and pinto beans.
Oils: Olive oil, flaxseed oil and avocado oil.

Foods to Limit

While you should include a variety of foods in your diet, there are some you should limit.

These include:

Alcohol: Alcohol can negatively affect your ability to build muscle and lose fat, especially if you consume it in excess.
Added sugars: These offer plenty of calories but few nutrients. Foods high in added sugars include candy, cookies, doughnuts, ice cream, cake and sugar-sweetened beverages, such as soda and sports drinks.
Deep-fried foods: These may promote inflammation and — when consumed in excess — disease. Examples include fried fish, french fries, onion rings, chicken strips and cheese curds.

In addition to limiting these, you may also want to avoid certain foods before going to the gym that can slow digestion and cause stomach upset during your workout.

These include:

High-fat foods: High-fat meats, buttery foods and heavy sauces or creams.
High-fiber foods: Beans and cruciferous vegetables like broccoli or cauliflower.
Carbonated beverages: Sparkling water or diet soda.

Bodybuilding Supplements

Many bodybuilders take dietary supplements, some of which are useful while others are not.

The best bodybuilding supplements include:

Whey protein: Consuming whey protein powder is an easy and convenient way to increase your protein intake.
Creatine: Creatine provides your muscles with the energy needed to perform an additional rep or two. While there are many brands of creatine, look for creatine monohydrate as it’s the most effective.
Caffeine: Caffeine decreases fatigue and allows you to work harder. It’s found in pre-workout supplements, coffee or tea.

A multi-vitamin and mineral supplement may be helpful if you’re limiting your calorie intake in an effort to reduce body fat during your cutting phase.

SUMMARY
Include a variety of nutrient-rich foods across and within all the food groups in your diet. Avoid or limit alcohol, foods with added sugars and deep-fried foods. In addition to your diet, whey protein, creatine and caffeine can be useful supplements.

One-Week Sample Menu

The diets of bodybuilders are commonly described as restrictive, repetitive and boring.

Traditional bodybuilding diets typically contain limited food selections and little variety among and within food groups, which can lead to an inadequate intake of essential minerals and vitamins.

For this reason, it’s important to incorporate variety into your diet to ensure your nutritional needs are being met — especially during a cutting phase when you eat limited calories.

Each meal and snack should contain 20–30 grams of protein to optimally support muscle building.

When you’re in a bulking phase, your food intake will be much higher than when you’re in a cutting phase.

You can enjoy the same foods in the cutting phase that you would when bulking — just in smaller portions.

Here is a sample one-week bodybuilding menu:

Monday

Breakfast: Scrambled eggs with mushrooms and oatmeal.
Snack: Low-fat cottage cheese with blueberries.
Lunch: Venison burger, white rice and broccoli.
Snack: Protein shake and a banana.
Dinner: Salmon, quinoa and asparagus.

Tuesday

Breakfast: Protein pancakes with light-syrup, peanut butter and raspberries.
Snack: Hard-boiled eggs and an apple.
Lunch: Sirloin steak, sweet potato and spinach salad with vinaigrette.

Snack: Protein shake and strawberries.
Dinner: Turkey meatballs, marinara sauce and parmesan cheese over pasta.

SUMMARY
Vary the types of foods in your diet and consume 20–30 grams of protein with each meal and snack.

Things to Keep in Mind

For the most part, bodybuilding is a lifestyle associated with several health benefits, but there are some things to know before doing bodybuilding.

Low Levels of Body Fat Can Negatively Affect Sleep and Mood

To prepare for a bodybuilding competition, competitors achieve extremely low levels of body fat, with men and women typically reaching body fat levels of 5–10% and 10–15%, respectively.

This low level of body fat, combined with the low calorie intake, has been shown to decrease sleep quality, negatively affect mood and weaken the immune system in the weeks leading up to a competition and even several weeks after.

Consequently, this can decrease your ability to function each day, negatively affect those around you and leave you more susceptible to illness.

Risks of Anabolic Steroid Use

Many, but not all, muscle-building supplements are advertised by bodybuilders who use performance-enhancing drugs, such as anabolic steroids.

This misleads many bodybuilders into believing that they can achieve the same muscular look by taking the advertised supplement.

In turn, many bodybuilders, especially those at the beginning of their journey, develop unrealistic expectations of what can be accomplished naturally, which may lead to body dissatisfaction and eventually the urge to try anabolic steroids.

However, anabolic steroids are very unhealthy and linked to several risks and side effects.

In addition to being illegal to possess in the US without a prescription, using anabolic steroids can increase your risk of heart disease, decrease fertility and result in psychiatric and behavioral disorders like depression.

SUMMARY
When preparing for a competition, make sure you’re aware of the possible side effects. Also, understand that the physiques you see in supplement ads may not be realistically achieved without the use of anabolic steroids, which are very unhealthy.

The Bottom Line

Bodybuilding is judged on muscularity and leanness rather than athletic performance.

Achieving the desired bodybuilder look requires regular exercise and special attention to your diet.

Bodybuilding dieting is typically divided into bulking and cutting phases, during which your calorie intake will change while your macronutrient ratio remains the same.

Your diet should include nutrient-dense foods, 20–30 grams of protein with each meal and snack, and you should restrict alcohol and deep-fried or high-sugar foods.

This ensures you get all the important nutrients your body needs for building muscle and overall health.

Best and Worst Foods for Diabetes

2020-12-10T14:13:00.001+05:30

Best and Worst Foods for Diabetes

Your food choices matter a lot when you've got diabetes. Some are better than others.

Nothing is completely off-limits. Even items that you might think of as “the worst" could be occasional treats -- in tiny amounts. But they won’t help you nutrition-wise, and it’s easiest to manage your diabetes if you mainly stick to the “best” options.

Starches

Your body needs carbs. But you want to choose wisely. Use this list as a guide.

Best Choices

Whole grains, such as brown rice, oatmeal, quinoa, millet, or amaranth
Baked sweet potato
Items made with whole grains and no (or very little) added sugar.

Worst Choices

Processed grains, such as white rice or white flour
Cereals with little whole grains and lots of sugar
White bread
French fries
Fried white-flour tortillas

Vegetables

Load up! You’ll get fiber and very little fat or salt (unless you add them). Remember, potatoes and corn count as carbs.

Best Choices

Fresh veggies, eaten raw or lightly steamed, roasted, or grilled
Plain frozen vegetables, lightly steamed
Greens such as kale, spinach, and arugula. Iceberg lettuce is not as great because it’s low in nutrients.
Low sodium or unsalted canned vegetables

Go for a variety of colors: dark greens, red or orange (think of carrots or red peppers), whites (onions) and even purple (eggplants). The 2015 U.S. guidelines recommend 2.5 cups of veggies per day.

Worst Choices

Canned vegetables with lots of added sodium
Veggies cooked with lots of added butter, cheese, or sauce
Pickles, if you need to limit sodium. Otherwise, pickles are OK.
Sauerkraut, for the same reason as pickles. Limit them if you have high blood pressure.

Fruits

They give you carbohydrates, vitamins, minerals, and fiber. Most are naturally low in fat and sodium. But they tend to have more carbs than vegetables do.

Best Choices

Fresh fruit
Plain frozen fruit or fruit canned without added sugar
Sugar-free or low-sugar jam or preserves
No-sugar-added applesauce

Worst Choices

Canned fruit with heavy sugar syrup
Chewy fruit rolls
Regular jam, jelly, and preserves (unless you have a very small portion)
Sweetened applesauce
Fruit punch, fruit drinks, fruit juice drinks

Protein

You have lots of choices, including beef, chicken, fish, pork, turkey, seafood, beans, cheese, eggs, nuts, and tofu.

Best Choices

The American Diabetes Association lists these as the top options:

Plant-based proteins such as beans, nuts, seeds, or tofu
Fish and seafood
Chicken and other poultry (Choose the breast meat if possible.)
Eggs and low-fat dairy

If you eat meat, keep it low in fat. Trim the skin off of poultry.

Try to include some plant-based protein from beans, nuts, or tofu, even if you're not a vegetarian or vegan. You’ll get nutrients and fiber that aren’t in animal products.

Worst Choices

Fried meats
Higher-fat cuts of meat, such as ribs
Pork bacon
Regular cheeses
Poultry with skin
Deep-fried fish
Deep-fried tofu
Beans prepared with lard

Dairy

Keep it low in fat. If you want to splurge, keep your portion small.

Best Choices

1% or skim milk
Low-fat yogurt
Low-fat cottage cheese
Low-fat or nonfat sour cream

Worst Choices

Whole milk
Regular yogurt
Regular cottage cheese
Regular sour cream
Regular ice cream
Regular half-and-half

Fats, Oils, and Sweets

They’re tough to resist. But it’s easy to get too much and gain weight, which makes it harder to manage your diabetes.

Best Choices

Natural sources of vegetable fats, such as nuts, seeds, or avocados (high in calories, so keep portions small)
Foods that give you omega-3 fatty acids, such as salmon, tuna, or mackerel
Plant-based oils, such as canola, grapeseed, or olive oils

Worst Choices

Anything with trans fat in it. It's bad for your heart. Check the ingredient list for anything that’s “partially hydrogenated,” even if the label says it has 0 grams of trans fat.
Big portions of saturated fats, which mainly come from animal products but also are in coconut oil and palm oil. Ask your doctor what your limit should be, especially if you have heart disease as well as diabetes.

Drinks

When you down a favorite drink, you may get more calories, sugar, salt, or fat than you bargained for. Read the labels so you know what’s in a serving.

Best Choices

Unflavored water or flavored sparkling water
Unsweetened tea with or without a slice of lemon
Light beer, small amounts of wine, or non-fruity mixed drinks
Coffee, black or with added low-fat milk and sugar substitute

Worst Choices

Regular sodas
Regular beer, fruity mixed drinks, dessert wines
Sweetened tea
Coffee with sugar and cream
Flavored coffees and chocolate drinks
Energy drinks

Figuring out the best foods to eat when you have diabetes can be tough.

That’s because your main goal should be controlling your blood sugar levels.

However, it’s also important to eat foods that help prevent diabetes complications like heart disease.

Your diet can have a major role in preventing and managing diabetes .

Here are the 16 best foods for people living with diabetes, both type 1 and type 2

1. Fatty Fish

Fatty fish contain omega-3 fats that help reduce inflammation and other risk factors for heart disease and stroke. Plus, it’s a great source of protein, which is important for blood sugar regulation.

2. Leafy Greens

Avocados have less than 1 gram of sugar and are associated with improved overall diet quality. Avocados may also have properties specific to diabetes prevention.

4. Eggs

Eggs may improve risk factors for heart disease, promote good blood sugar management, protect eye health, and keep you feeling full.

5. Chia Seeds

Chia seeds contain high amounts of fiber, which may help you lose weight. They also help maintain blood glucose levels.

6. Beans

Beans are cheap, nutritious, and have a low glycemic index, making them a healthy option for individuals with diabetes.

7. Greek Yogurt

Yogurt promotes healthy blood sugar levels, reduces risk factors for heart disease and may help with weight management.

8. Nuts

Nuts are a healthy addition to a balanced diet. They’re high in fiber and help reduce blood sugar and LDL (bad) cholesterol levels.Here are the amounts of digestible carbs, per 1-ounce (28-gram) serving of nuts, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture :

PUBG Mobile Latest Update : Frustrated PUBG officials requests meeting with ministry

PUBG Mobile Latest Update : Frustrated PUBG officials requests meeting with ministry

PUBG Mobile Latest Update : Various rumors about PUBG Mobile comeback in India have been floated from different quarters. Various timelines have passed and still the most played game in India hasn’t seen the light of the day. After all the rumors on PUBG Mobile India release date, InsideSport on last Thursday had reported that Ministry of Electronics and Information technology (MEITY) hasn’t given any permission to the Corporation or any new entity in India to re-start operations in India. This news though must have disappointed the fraternity in India who were hoping for a quick relaunch the game before end of November.

The officials of newly formed entity in India has officially requested MEITY for a meeting. InsideSport has reliably learnt that the concerned executives of PUBG have been repeatedly requesting ministry for an opportunity of meeting. InsideSport was further told by the sources that the ‘request is yet to be granted by the MEITY’.

PUBG is desperate to relaunch themselves in India. According to the Insiders, ‘the proposed meeting will decide if permission to Relaunch can be granted to PUBG or not’. The source further added that ‘In the current circumstances it will not be easy for the game to relaunch themselves before Jan-Feb next year and that too will depend on the stance of the government’.

PUBG Mobile Comeback : Ministry sources to InsideSport, “No permission to PUBG to operate in India as yet”

PUBG Mobile Comeback : Earlier on Thursday, InsideSport had reported to its readers that the Corporation or any new entity in India has not been granted any permission to re-start operations in India.

The game was banned in India along with the other Chinese Apps in September and according to the ministry source, ‘there is no change in that stance at this stage’, said the source.

InsideSport further tried probing the Ministry Source on the latest development of the game floating new entity in India and will it be enough for them to re-start the operations in India ? Reluctantly, the Ministry official told InsideSport that will not be enough to resume operations.

“Any banned entity can’t operate just by floating new company. This even Tik Tok or anyone else can do. They will have to get permissions from MEITY to operate once again in India”,

This clearly means, though the new company has been floated and approved by the Ministry of Corporate Affairs, the permissions by the ministry that banned Chinese Apps will still be required for the game to operate in India.

It is worth noting, that the corporation has registered as a company with the Ministry of Corporate Affairs on 21st November. The new registered entity, complies with the government norms as one of the appointed Director is India by the name of Kumar Krishnan Iyer. The other director in the company is Sean (Hyunil) Sohn.

The company has a Corporate Identity Number of U72900KA2020FTC141285 which suggests that PUBG Mobile India is serious to not only make a comeback in the country but is also ready to comply with the norms.

PUBG Mobile Comeback : Microsoft Azure also declared that ‘they don’t have any information’ on the Re-launch

Earlier Microsoft Azure who is reportedly getting into a partnership with PUBG Mobile to host the game on its servers and data centers also confirmed that they don’t have any information about PUBG’s relaunch in India.

“We don’t have any news to share at this time regarding PUBG Mobile India. Keep an eye on the official website for more information!”

Why Sony PS5 launch delayed in India?

2020-12-04T19:04:00.001+05:30

Why Sony PS5 launch delayed in India?

The organization’s most recent release of gaming console PlayStation-PS5 was revealed back in June, but the launch is now delayed in India, read why?. While PS5 is as of now up for pre-request in certain nations beginning November 12, Sony is yet to report the estimating or its accessibility in India and there might be a decent (read: awful) purpose for it.

Strangely, this isn’t the first run through a significant brand needed to manage brand name issues in India. ASUS missed out on the ZenFone naming rights a year ago after a neighborhood brand indicted the Taiwanese maker for encroaching on its current Zen Versatile brand name. Subsequently, the ZenFone 6 was dispatched as the ASUS 6z in India.

Sony doesn’t have that specific issue as the PS5 recording was finished by an individual, and Sony can undoubtedly demonstrate that it has an earlier case to the moniker. Be that as it may, the postponement in making sure about the name will push back the arrival of the PS5 in India, and it doesn’t seem as though we’ll become more acquainted with estimating or accessibility data at any point in the near future.

Sony PS5 launch delayed in India and this could be the reason

The PlayStation 5 is up for pre-request in many nations in front of its dispatch on November 12, yet that is not the situation in India. Sony hasn’t declared PS5 estimating or accessibility for India, and another report recommends Sony has a more concerning issue on its hands: it doesn’t claim the brand name to the PS5 name in India.

Sony is evidently confronting brand name issues in the nation. The report proposes that the deferral in its dispatch in India may have been brought about by a Delhi occupant who had recorded the primary PS5 brand name for the name in the nation, subsequently pushing its date further.

The Sony PS5 dispatch in India is yet to be reported with the organization’s mum on the genuine delivery date or even the date for preorders in the nation. The deferral would now be able to be perceived gratitude to a specific Hitesh Aswani who is an inhabitant of Delhi. It appears Aswani had before recorded a PS5 brand name application in India on October 29, 2019, as indicated by the reports accessible in the public area.

The outcome – Sony can’t sell its most recent PlayStation 5 under the PS5 moniker in India. Sony had recorded an application for it back on February 6, 2020. This was first revealed by The Mako Reactor while the subtleties of the brand name can be gotten to on the Indian Government’s Public Hunt of Exchange Imprints site.

The Mako Reactor connected with Sony for a remark and the organization rushed to reply in the unclear and that it expressed gratitude toward them for pointing out this specific issue.

This circumstance is like back when Asus was wanting to acquire the Zenfone 6 India – eventually transforming it Asus 6Z and eliminating the Zenfone marking by and large considering the name conflicted with another cell phone maker in India with a similar name.

PS5 launch delayed in India – the real reason

Sony had recorded an application in February 2020 for the PS5 brand name, be that as it may, the status of both the brand names is ‘Contradicted’. This wouldn’t have occurred if Sony had reserved the ‘PS5’ heretofore. Sony has just protected ‘PS6’, ‘PS7′,’PS8′,’PS9’, and ‘PS10’, which is insane as we don’t know whether we will actually observe a PS10. What’s to come is excessively capricious. This additionally goes to show their lighthearted disposition towards the Indian market and that it doesn’t mean a lot. I realize this will come as harmed to each Indian Gamer’s personality yet this is reality. India is anything but a significant market for PS5. This is because of two reasons primarily:

Indian crowd is agreeable in giving a major forthright however isn’t happy with a little forthright expense and purchasing exorbitant games, memberships, and extras. That is the reason old-gen comforts see a flood in deals, as the game and reassure’s value drop. PS4 will keep on being the success in India. This additionally fits with Sony as they are not making much on Programming yet making benefits by selling equipment.

PS5 is dispatching on seventeenth November for the Remainder of The World, however, India’s dispatch cost and date haven’t been reported authoritatively. In the event that you were figuring PS5 will dispatch by Diwali, at that point you will be baffled as to the stand by is by all accounts longer than that. You can import the reassure from your nearby retailer and the import cost of PS5 is by all accounts ₹50,000 in Nehru Spot, Delhi. Notwithstanding, it isn’t prescribed to do that as you won’t get a Sony India to guarantee through this strategy.

Nonetheless, with barely a month prior to the PS5 is set to dispatch, it’s very conceivable that PlayStation should postpone the arrival of its cutting edge reassure in Indian business sectors until this contention has been settled, as it can’t sell a PS5 until it has achieved the option to utilize the name monetarily already.

Truth be told, as indicated by Android Focal, Indian clients haven’t yet gotten the alternative to try and pursue a PS5 pre-request in the nation at present, recommending the framework won’t land there simultaneously as the remainder of the world this November.

The Mako Reactor contacted PlayStation for an announcement on the issue, however, an agent from Sony India said the organization “has no remarks at this stage”

What to expect from PS5 launch delayed in India

Then, PS5 will come in two variations: reassure with a Ultra HD Blu-beam plate drive and a somewhat more slender Computerized Version without a circle drive.

In an equipment divulge video dropped on YouTube in June, the organization stated: “The PS5 ongoing interaction experience will be the equivalent, so the decision is all yours. While there are some slight contrasts in the appearance of each model, for the general plan, we needed to convey a comfort that is strong, shocking, and dissimilar to any past age of PlayStation.”

What’s noticeably unique is the plan component – the consoles have gotten sleeker and would now be able to stand vertically. The center is finished with distending wings wrapping it at the top for heat dispersal.

Till you can get your hands on the gadget on account of the indicated brand name issue, you can get all the related information of PS5 launch delayed in India.

PUBG VS COD

2020-12-04T17:38:00.002+05:30

PUBG Mobile vs COD Mobile: Which game is better for low-end Android devices?

COD Mobile and PUBG Mobile are popular battle royale games in the mobile esports community.
Both games are resource-intensive and offer a high-quality immersive gaming experience.

Since its release last October, COD Mobile has been touted as the de facto rival to PUBG Mobile in the battle royale genre. The games share the same core of BR gameplay but their maps, modes, duration and intensity are very different.

Both PUBG Mobile and COD Mobile offer high-quality gameplay graphics. However, with great graphics comes great mobile device requirements.

This article analyzes the two games to determine which game is better for low-end Android devices.

PUBG Mobile

Minimum system requirements

For Android

Android version: 5.1.1 and above
Ram: 2 GB
Storage: 2 GB
Processor: A decent processor, for example, Snapdragon 425 equivalent

COD Mobile

Minimum system requirements

Here are the minimum requirements of COD Mobile as stated on the official website:

"Call of Duty: Mobile is compatible with Android devices with at least 2 GB of RAM and running Android 5.1 and above."

PUBG Mobile or COD Mobile: Which game is more compatible with low-end Android devices?

Gameplay

With an average gameplay duration of 20-30 minutes, PUBG Mobile sees 100 players landing on a map to battle it out against one another. Its gameplay is very resource-intensive. After a few matches, the device heats up, and the gameplay becomes laggy.

COD Mobile is also resource-intensive in its gameplay style but hardly has any lag. It offers better and smoother gameplay even though its average match duration is the same as that of PUBG Mobile, with 100 players landing on the battle royale map.

Graphics

PUBG Mobile and COD Mobile offer rich gameplay with Ultra HD graphics support. They also offer 60-90 FPS of in-game frame rate support with a quality experience.

However, COD Mobile's vibrant visuals and open-world map details with a 60FPS minimal lag experience is a better option based on the graphics criteria.

Conclusion

Both PUBG Mobile and COD Mobile are not very optimal choices to run on low-end Android devices. Even at their lowest graphics settings, these games will be quite laggy, and players will experience huge frame drops.

However, for mid-range Android devices, COD Mobile may offer a better gameplay experience to players than PUBG Mobile, in terms of graphics quality and gameplay experience.

Disclaimer: This article reflects the writer's individual opinion, and it is an individual's preference to choose one game over another.

PUBG Vs Free Fire: Which One Is Better And Why?

PUBG Mobile ban is one of the latest blows to the Chinese conglomerate Tencent. Although PUB Mobile was owned by a South Korean company, its links with Chinese game studios was alleged a threat to Indian users. Consequently, Free Fire is where gamers are heading to next. But is the experience the same? Here's a comparison between PUBG Mobile and Free Fire.

PUBG Vs Free Fire: Graphics

The first obvious difference is in the appearance of the game. PUBG Mobile presented better graphics that were more life-like. The characters, maps, the battleground, and even the weapons were more life-like in PUBG. Free Fire also has some pretty good graphics, however, it lacks the realistic feel that we can get in PUBG.

Free Fire is the numerous characters

One of the plus points of Free Fire is the numerous characters. The game provides you two free characters and more are unlocked as you progress through the levels or via login bonus, and so on. PUBG too gives you many characters as options. However, the Battle Royale mode has no characters to offer and every player has the same character. That being said, players can dress up their characters with extravagant costumes.

PUBG Vs Free Fire: Battle Royale

The Battle Royale mode is the most attractive feature of both games. On the PUBG Battle Royale mode, a maximum of 100 players joins the battle of survival. There are only 50 players on Free Fire with a similar setup where the last man standing wins. Plus, both games have a similar concept of the 'zone' where gamers need to escape to survive.

But with 100 players, PUBG's maps are bigger and diverse ranging from rivers, forests, Ruins, and Bootcamp. Free Fire has a smaller map, which means the combat happens much faster and the match also ends sooner.

PUBG Vs Free Fire: The Difference In Experience

The difference in the experience is the deal-breaker. People have often noted that Free Fire is like a younger brother to PUBG with similar features and game setup. However, there's a drastic difference when it comes to the gaming experience. For me, nothing can beat the PUBG experience, especially not Free Fire!

PUBG experience

At the same time, to enjoy the PUBG experience, you need a good phone with at least a 90Hz refresh rate and a good touch sampling rate. There are many good mid-range phones that good a great display for games like PUBG. However, when it comes to the question of affordability, Free Fire has democratized the experience. Even if it isn't as good as PUBG, anyone can play Free Fire even on a budget and affordable smartphone.

And now, with the ban on PUBG, we're all left with games like Free Fire! Of course, there are plenty of mobile games like COD: Mobile. There is also the upcoming FAU-G, an India-made gaming app set in Indian locations. It remains to see if FAU-G can win over PUBG players when it launches.

INDIA'S BIGGEST SCAM | SCAM 1992 in hindi

2020-12-03T19:11:00.001+05:30

1992 Scam का पूरा सच, कौन था स्टॉक मार्केट का 'बच्चन'

सोनी लिव पर 9 अक्टूबर को रिलीज हुई वेब सीरिज जिसका की घोषणा के बाद से ही लंबे समय से इंतजार किया जा रहा था। हम बात कर रहे हैं, हर्षद मेहता की असल ज़िंदगी पर आधारित वेब सीरीज़ 'स्कैम 1992: द हर्षद मेहता स्टोरी' की। जिसकी कहानी 1980 और 90 के मुंबई की है। शुरुआत होती है 1992 में बॉम्बे के सेटअप से जहां एक पत्रकार ये बताने की कोशिश करता है कि बैंक से 4000 करोड़ का घोटाला हुआ है। हर्षद मेहता का नाम उन दिनों कितना बड़ा रहा होगा इस बात का अंदाजा इसी से लगाया जा सकता है कि पत्रकार उसका नाम लेने से पहले पसीना-पसीना हो चुका है। स्कैम 1992 एक स्टॉक ब्रोकर हर्षद मेहता की ज़िंदगी को फॉलो करती है, जिसने अकेले स्टॉक मार्केट को ऊंचाई दी और फिर भयावह गिरावट भी।

आज बात हर्षद मेहता की करेंगे, 4 हजार करोड़ के घोटाले की करेंगे, तत्कालीन प्रधानमंत्री पर लगाए उसके आरोपों की करेंगे और साथ ही उसके रहस्यमई मौत की भी करेंगे।

दलाल स्ट्रीट ये नाम पड़ा यहां होने वाले सबसे पुराने बिजनेस की वजह से 'दलाली'। एक ऐसी सड़क जहां दुनिया के ईमान को बदलने वाली ताकत यानी पैसे का राज चलता है। पर ये सड़क ईमानदारी के अनलिखे कायदों पर चलता है। यहां मुनाफा भी है और नुकसान भी।

1954 में गुजराती परिवार में जन्में हर्षद मेहता ने अपना ज्यादातर समय छत्तीसगढ़ के रायपुर में बिताया। रायपुर से स्कूल की पढ़ाई करने के बाद वो वापस मुंबई लौट आया और लाजपत राय कॉलेज से बीकॉम की पढ़ाई की। पढ़ाई के बाद वो हॉजरी बेचने से लेकर डायमंड चुनने का काम करने लगा।

स्टॉक मार्केट में मेहता की एंट्री तब हुई जब उसने द न्यू इंडिया एश्योरेंस कंपनी में नौकरी शुरू की। यहीं से उसकी स्टॉक मार्केट में दिलचस्पी बढ़ी और नौकरी छोड़कर उसने 1981 में ब्रोकरेज फर्म ज्वाइन कर ली। 1984 में खुद की ग्रो मोर रीसर्स एंड असेट मैनेजमेंट नाम की कंपनी की शुरुआत की और और बॉम्बे स्टॉक एक्सचेंज में बतौर ब्रोकर मेंबरशिप ली। 1990 तक, हर्षद मेहता इंडियन स्टॉक मार्केट का बड़ा नाम बन चुका था। कहा जाता था कि हर्षद मेहता जिस चीज को छू देता था, वो सोना बन जाता था। उसे ‘स्टॉक मार्केट का अमिताभ बच्चन’ और ‘बिग बुल’ भी कहा जाता था।

कैसे होता था गोलमाल ?

बैंकिंग सिस्टम की कमियों का फायदा उठाकर हर्षद मेहता ने बैंकिंग लेनदेन में गोलमाल किया था। सुचेता दलाल ने उस वक्त के अपने लेख में बताया था कि हर्षद मेहता का यह फर्जीवाड़ा कैसे काम करता है। हर्षद मेहता रेडी फॉरवर्ड (आरएफ) डील के जरिए बैंकों से फंड उठाते थे। आरएफ डील का मतलब शॉर्ट टर्म लोन से है। बैंकों को जब शॉर्ट टर्म फंड की जरूरत पड़ती है तो वे इस तरह का लोन लेते हैं। इस तरह का लोन कम से कम 15 दिनों के लिए होता है।

इसमें एक बैंक सरकारी बॉन्ड गिरवी रखकर दूसरे बैंकों को उधार देते हैं। रकम वापस करने के बाद बैंक अपना बॉन्ड दोबारा खरीद सकते हैं। इस तरह के लेनदेन में बैंक असल में सरकारी बॉन्ड का लेनदेन नहीं करते हैं। बल्कि बैंक रसीद जारी करते थे। इसमें होता ये है कि जिस बैंक को कैश की जरूरत होती है वह बैंक रसीद जारी करता था। यह हुंडी की तरह होता था। इसके बदले में बैंक लोन देते हैं। दो बैंकों के बीच की इस लेनदेन को बिचौलियों के जरिए किया जाता। हर्षद मेहता को इस तरह के लेनदेन की बारीकियों की जानकारी थी। बस फिर क्या! हर्षद मेहता ने अपनी पहचान का फायदा उठाते हुए हेरफेर करके पैसे लिए। फिर इसी पैसे को बाजार में लगाकर जबरदस्त मुनाफा कमाया।

उस दौरान शेयर बाजार में हर दिन चढ़ रहा था। कुछ जानकारों का यह भी कहना है कि तब आंख बंद करके किसी भी शेयर में पैसा लगाने का मतलब प्रॉफिट ही होता था। बाजार की इस तेजी का फायदा उठाने के लिए ही हर्षद मेहता ने हेरफेर किया।

स्टॉक्स में लगाने के लिए कहां से आता था पैसा?

हर्षद मेहता बाजार में ज्यादा से ज्यादा पैसा लगाकर मुनाफा कमाना चाहते थे। लिहाजा उन्होंने जाली बैंकिंग रसीद जारी करवाई। इसके लिए उन्होंने दो छोटे-छोटे बैंकों को हथियार बनाया। बैंक ऑफ कराड और मेट्रोपॉलिटन को-ऑपरेटिव बैंक में अपनी अच्छी जानपहचान का फायदा उठाकर हर्षद मेहता बैंक रसीद जारी करवाते थे। इन्ही रसीद के बदले पैसा उठाकर वह शेयर बाजार में लगाते थे। इससे वह इंट्रा डे में प्रॉफिट कमाकर बैंकों को उनका पैसा लौटा देते थे। जब तक शेयर बाजार चढ़ता रहा, किसी को इसकी भनक नहीं पड़ी। लेकिन बाजार में गिरावट के बाद जब वह बैंकों का पैसा 15 दिन के भीतर नहीं लौटा पाए, उनकी पोल खुल गई। हर्षद मेहता के करतूतों का खुलासा होने के बाद ही शेयर बाजार के लिए रेगुलेटर की कमी महसूस हुई। इसी के बाद मार्केट रेगुलेटर सेबी का गठन हुआ।

कैसे हुआ पर्दाफाश

1990 के दशक में हर्षद मेहता की कंपनी में बड़े इवेस्टर पैसा लगाने लगे थे, मगर जिस वजह से हर्षद मेहता का नाम स्टॉक मार्केट में छाया वो एसीसी यानी एसोसिएटेड सीमेंट कंपनी में उनका पैसा लगाना शुरू किया। हर्षद मेहता के एसीसी के पैसा लगाने के बाद मानो एसीसी के भाग्य ही बदल गए, क्योंकी एसीसी का जो शेयर 200 रुपये का था उसकी कीमत कुछ ही समय में 9000 हो गई। हर्षद मेहता के 1550 स्कॉवर फीट के सी फेसिंग पेंट हाउस से लेकर उनकी मंहगी गाड़ियों के शौक तक सबने उन्हें एक सेलिब्रिटी बना दिया था। ऐसा पहली बार हो रहा था कि कोई छोटा सा ब्रोकर लगातार इतना इंवेस्ट कर रहा है और हर इवेस्टमेंट के साथ करोड़ों कमा रहा है। बस इसी सवाल ने हर्षद मेहता के अच्छे दिनों को बुरे दिनों में तब्दील कर दिया।

बैंक बोर्ड ने एसबीआई एमडी के लिए इन दो नामों की सिफारिश की

1992 में हर्षद मेहता के इस राज से टाइम्स ऑफ इंडिया के पत्रकार सुचेता दलाल ने इस राज का पर्दाफाश किया। सुचेता दलाल ने बताया कि हर्षद मेहता बैंक से 15 दिन का लोन लेता था और उसे स्टॉक मार्केट में लगा देता था। साथ ही 15 दिन के भीतर वो बैंक को मुनाफे के साथ पैसा लौटा देता था। मगर कोई भी 15 दिन के लिए लोन नहीं देता, मगर हर्षद मेहता बैंक से 15 दिन का लोन लेता था। हर्षद मेहता एक बैंक से फेक बीआर बनावाता जिसके बाद उसे दूसरे बैंक से भी आराम से पैसा मिल जाता था। हालांकि इसका खुलासा होने के बाद सभी बैंक ने उससे अपने पैसे वापस मागने शुरू कर दिए। खुलासा होने के बाद मेहता के ऊपर 72 क्रमिनर चार्ज लगाए गए और सिविल केस फाइल हुए।

कैसे करता था घोटाला

हालांकि इन सब के बावजूद हर्षद मेहता का मन नहीं माना, वो अखबारों में एडवाइजरी कॉलम्स लिखने लगा कि आप इस कंपनी में इंवेस्ट करे आपको फायदा होगा या इस कंपनी में ना करें इससे नुकसान होगा। बाद में पता चला कि मेहता सिर्फ उस कंपनी में पैसा लगाने कि एडवाइस देता था जिसमें उसका खुद का पैसा लगा हुआ है।

प्रधानमंत्री नरसिम्हा राव पर लगाया घोटाले का आरोप

हर्षद मेहता ने 1993 में पूर्व प्रधानमंत्री और उस वक्त कांग्रेस के अध्यक्ष पीवी नरसिम्हा राव पर केस से बचाने के लिए 1 करोड़ घूस लेने का आरोप लगाया था। उसने दावा किया कि पीएम को उसने एक सूटकेस में घूस की रकम दी थी। हर्षद मेहता ने इस बारे में एक कॉन्फ्रेंस में खुलासा किया था और इसमें उनका साथ देने बैठे थे राम जेठमलानी। हर्षद मेहता ने कहा कि वह अपने साथ प्रधानमंत्री आवास एक सूटकेस ले गया था। उसमें 67 लाख रुपये थे। प्रेस कांफ्रेंस में मेहता ने कहा कि उसने सूटकेस राव के पर्सनल सेक्रेट्री राम खांडेकर को दे दिया। ऐसा उसने प्रधानमंत्री के कहने पर किया। एक करोड़ देने की बात थी, पर उस दिन सुबह तक 67 लाख का ही इंतजाम कर सका था। दूसरे दिन बाकी रकम पहुंचा दी। हर्षद ने उस प्रेस कांफ्रेंस में कहा कि उसने प्रधानमंत्री को यह भी बताया था कि शेयर बाजार में पैसे कमाना कितना आसान है। उसने कहा कि वह शपथ पत्र दाखिल कर प्रधानमंत्री को पैसे देने की बात कही है। बहरहाल पीएम पर रिश्वत लेने का आरोप साबित नहीं हो सका। लेकिन न तो झूठा आरोप लगाने के आरोप में हर्षद मेहता को सजा हुई और न ही घूस लेने के आरोप में नरसिंह राव को। नरसिंह राव पर यह आरोप लगा था कि उन्होंने आंध्र के नांदियाल लोकसभा उपचुनाव में खर्च करने के लिए हर्षद मेहता से पैसे लिए थे। हालांकि कांग्रेस द्वारा इसे सिरे से खारिज कर दिया गया था।
