Panasonic Cooker Hoods: Choosing The Right Model

Panasonic is a very large company that produces many high quality cooker hoods for commercial and private kitchens. However, choosing the right model for your home can be a little difficult. To help you out, we’ve decided to review the Panasonic KH-B90FBC1 cooker hood for cost, working and effectiveness. About Panasonic Panasonic is a very good company with an international footprint. The company produces more than 20,000 different appliances for household, commercial and residential use. It also has a very strong global presence and extremely good customer service in nearly every country which makes it a good choice for customers. Why Panasonic Cooker Hoods are good for your home? Panasonic cooker hoods are integral to any cooking area. The high quality cooker hoods can wick away foul odors and greasy fumes and ensure that your home or your kitchen are clean, tidy and fresh smelling. However, Panasonic has several great models that are difficult to choose from and we are reviewing the Panasonic KH-B90FBC1 Island Chimney Cooker Hood that is made from stainless steel. We particularly loved this model, as it appears streamlined, beautifully elegant and simple. It is also ideal for a kitchen that has a central cooking hob. The machine has a simple electrostatic touch control that makes it very easy to operate. The island-based hood can easily vent air away from the hob and direct it away or re-circulate the air in the room. Operating the hood is easy as the system has three different settings. You can choose from any setting but the machine has been sound-proofed so efficiently that it only makes a noise level of about 62dB. For optimum working efficiency, the hood has 6 lamps that will illuminate the cooking surface and make it easier for you to prepare food quickly and efficiently. As the air circulates in the hood, the grease in the air is filtered out and it collects in a special vent. You can remove and clean this vent when it fills up. A special alarm has been built into the system along with a current plate and exhaust shutter to provide easy maintenance and working. The only problem we see with this is that you will need a qualified engineer to locate and attach the cooker hood to the wall. Take the time to check the different brands with the company before you actually purchase Panasonic cooker hoods. We’ve also listed the specifications and aperture information of one particular model for your reference. Aperture needed Information Brand Information The cooker hood has an airflow rate of about 705m³ per hour (extraction) Cooker hood power Information The cooker hood runs on 280W of power from a single connection Fuel Electrically powered Dimensions H7.2 x W90 x D57.5cm Hob Clearance and Ducting Diameter Information A minimum hob clearance of about 65 cms is required with 150mm of ducting diameter Total load rating (kW) Information The cooker hood runs on 280W of power from a single connection Model name / number Panasonic KH-B90FBC1 cooker hood

Narayan Sarovar Sanctuary

Narayan Sarovar Sanctuary or the Narayan Sarovar Chinkara Sanctuary is one of the most popular animal sanctuaries in Gujarat. The popular Sanctuary was set up on April 1981 but it was denotified on 1995 and the land area inside the park was reduced. The entire Sanctuary is located central to the Lakhpat Taluk, inside the Kutch district of Gujarat state, India. The historic Desert Sanctuary is considered to be one of the best in India and it is situated in the arid zone of India. The park is a part of the local wetland but it still houses more than a 1000 different species from all over region. The Wildlife Institute of India (WII) has identified it as one of the last remaining habitats of the cheetah in India. According to experts, the Sanctuary can be a possible reintroduction site for the cheetah species in the near future. Local poachers and human expansion in the form of deforestation and settlement and mining activities after de-notification has resulted in the Sanctuary reducing in size in the last decade. Current Status: Narayan Sarovar now houses more than 15 different species of flora and fauna that belong to the endangered species. Apart from endangered species, the area also houses more than 50 different mammals, reptiles and birds. The flora in the region is also concentrated in the park with several rare flowering plants and trees being seen in the region. The most plentiful species at present is the Chinkara, a local Indian Gazelle. These animals are rare but they flourish in the park, which has a protected environment. The high heat, high winds, and frequent storms in the region can be detrimental to many species but the Indian Chinkara flourishes. For this same reason, many exotic species have adapted to the biosphere and they can be seen only in this region and nowhere else. The endangered Chinkara in particular is the only gazelle species in the world with horns on both sexes. There are only about 7000 chinkaras known to exist in India and they are highly endangered. However, more than 80% of them inhabit the Kutch. They are also particularly concentrated in the Narayan Sarovar Sanctuary, which is wonderful for their particular breeding and their preservation. Geography: The Sanctuary is bordered by the Kori creek on the northwest, with a flourishing mangrove forest on the west, while prominent land features form its northern and southern limits. The park is remarkably flat in the northwest and the western area and it gradually slopes down towards the seashore. Along the northeastern area of the park, minor hill ranges can be seen with heights that vary. The area near the coast (near Tahera village) may extend up to 2.7 metres (above mean sea level). In the hill section, heights of the hill range will extend up to 157 metres particularly near the Manijal hill in Kaniyaro Rakhal. Rainfall is very scanty and erratic in this area as it is primarily a desert region. However, local authorities have set up more than 15 reservoirs around the sanctuary. Ground water potential and reservoirs frequently fall very low and salinity in low reserves is common. The area also has more than 30 villages in the region. Wildlife: There are 161 species valuable species in the region and of that, more than 112 are resident species. About 38 are migrating species and most of them are wetland birds belonging to about 13 families. The most common species seen in this area are as follows: Grey Francolin, Red-vented bulbul, Common Babbler, Eurasian Collared Dove, Plain Munia, Greater Short-toed Lark, Laughing dove, Indian robin, House sparrow, etc were the common birds seen here in large numbers. Although every species of bird are seen, a few of the rarer versions are referred to as the 'Specialists' and they are usually seasonal in nature. The most common species include the Ortolan Bunting, and Yellow- Crowned Woodpecker. The Sanctuary is also home to the Caracal, an endangered cat found in Gujarat and vulnerable to extinction. This species is now in the sanctuary at Kutch after a reproduction drive instituted more than 10 years ago. It’s quite a rare site. Other rare species native to the area includes the endangered Indian Wolf, Ratel, Pangolin, and the Desert Fox. The sanctuary is also home to three different species of birds called the Great Indian Bustards, Lesser Florican and the Black Partridge. How to reach: By road: You can hire a bus from Bhuj to go to Narayan Sarovar twice a day (morning and evening). Private vehicle can are available at Bhuj and they will cost you about Rs. 5.50/- per km to Rs. 10/- per km. By air: Direct flights are available to Bhuj located about 70 km from Kutch By Rail: The nearby railway station is Bhuj located just one kilometer to the northern part of this city. Palanpur is the nearest railway station from Bhuj at the border of Rajasthan at 391 kilometers. Local trains are available. Best time to visit: October to March is peak time at the Sanctuary.

Miyani Beach: A Short Guide

Gujarat is a beautiful state and it has an extensive coastline of more than 1,600km. This means that the state has several beautiful but still undeveloped beaches. Although the state has a mixed climate, it has the largest number of natural ports located along its coastline and this makes it a very commercial state. Apart from the port cities, the state has several undeveloped or virgin beaches that have not yet been developed and opened for tourists. Miyani Beach is one of these virgin beaches. Location Miyani Beach is situated about 36km from the city of Porbander. This means that tourists have to travel about 2 hours to reach the beach by driving along the Coastal NH-8E roadway. The beach is located within walking distance of Miyani Village with a local population of about 1,000 locals. Best Season To Visit Summer is the best time to visit the local beach. However, winter season is a good time as well. We recommend you visit the beach from November to March when the tides are and the weather is pleasant. Please do check local weather conditions before traveling to the beach. Attractions Miyani Beach is located near to Miyani Village and regular excursions are planned from the Beach and the village to local attractions like Porbander City. You can also visit local attractions like the Brahma Temple, Brahma temple, the Hsarsidhhi Mata Temple, Kirti Temple and Sudama Temple.

This mosque is of archaeological interest and is estimated to be from the 8th Century. For nature loves, the local Barda Wildlife Sanctuary is a must visit and it is within 2 – 5 kms of the beach. A dam has been built on the local Meda River and the freshwater reservoir is located around very near to the beach. You can travel down to the reservoir to see local and migratory birds from all over the region. You may require a local tour guide to help you around the area. Beach Activities Miyani Beach is currently under-development and not many activities are available on the beach itself. The Gujarat Maritime Board has plans to set up a beach resort, beach facilities, water sports, adventure sports and nature trails around the area but this will take a year or two to start. The beach itself is beautiful as the waters are clean and the sand has a very fine powdery texture with very few rocks on the beach surface. Accommodation The beach itself has very little in the form of accommodation. However, the City Of Porbander and Miyani Village have accommodation facilities in the form of budget apartments and homestay facilities.

How To Choose an LED strip For Decoration?


Choosing a LED Strip for decoration is quite easy. LED lighting can really brighten up a home with a few simple bulbs. On top of being brightly colored, this type of lighting can also be incredibly energy efficient saving you a lot of money. You might not know exactly how to choose LED strip lighting and to help you out, we have created a short guide that should prove helpful. No of LEDs in a strip When manufacturers provide LED lighting, they usually fill a square inch of the strip with a certain amount of LEDs. The larger the number of LEDs, the brighter the lighting you acquire. On top of that, with more bulbs per square meter, you also get the chance of adding multiple colored bulbs in the same strip. we recommend you inquire with the manufacturer about the LED bulbs per square meter to find out exactly how many bulbs are used. For example, Company A may insert about 50 bulbs per square meter while Company B may use about 120 LEDs per square meter. You can choose according to the brightness and color quality you want. Cost The more the number of bulbs per square meter, the more the price of the LED strip. This is a simple principle and you should know that more bulbs mean that the energy consumption will also be more. We suggest you inquire about the cost and then compare it to the LEDs per square meter to understand the brightness offered as compared to cost. Avoid buying your lights from a manufacturer that offers them at a really cheap rate. Usually, this means that the cost is offset by poor wiring and even fewer bulbs per square meter of lighting. Wattage Power consumption is important for LED lighting and we particularly recommend that you check this factor while buying LED strip lighting. Be sure to verify the wattage consumer per square foot or reel as you will have to provide a direct connection that can provide so much power. For example, you might be told that wattage consumption was 24 watts but this was per meter. You’ve installed a connection of 24 watts but with more than 10 meters which means you now require a connection that supplies 240 watts of power! For this reason, we recommend you check this factor with the manufacturer before you buy the light and get it installed. You will have to adjust the power supply accordingly. We hope that these few tips have helped you out. Take your time while selecting LED lighting as installing the lights can be expensive. Choose the best lights, and install them correctly and you won’t have anything to worry about. What You Should Know About LED Strip Lights LED strip lights are very affordable and extremely useful. In the last few years, most commercial complexes as well as household projects have started using LED strip lights to illuminate their homes. One of the major benefits with LED strip lights is that the strips can be as bright or as dim as you want them to be. However, choosing the right light can be a little difficult as manufacturer’s usually make LED lights for a range of different uses. To help you out, we’ve created a short guide to top types of LED lights available in the market. Color Bright LED strip lights – These lights are the most commonly used in commercial areas to provide lighting in niche areas like display cabinets and cupboards. However, homeowners can also buy large amounts of this same lighting to be installed inside vehicles, under cabinets and as accent lighting along outdoor areas. These strip lights are particularly made to resist water and cold and they can be very beautiful at night. Outdoor ultrabright LED lights – These lights are architectural grade lights that are used to illuminate outdoor bridges, buildings, display billboards, the outside of vehicles etc. These lights are very bright and very strong and they can easily last for months without burning out. However, as they are extra bright, they do tend to absorb much more energy that LED home lighting strips. We recommend you do not buy architectural-based LED lighting for your home unless you need it for a specific display purpose. Color changing LED lights – These lights are very beautiful and they are very commonly used for a range of display areas. Some architects also use color-changing lights on the outside of building and billboards. The advantage with these lighting strips is that over a million different light changes can be incorporated into the same strip and this color-change can be controlled with a computer. The color chances can also be designed to flash according to a preset schedule. Another major advantage with these lights is that they have a very low power consumption ratio. Weather resistant strip lighting – This is probably the most popular variety of strip lighting. The strips are resistant to water, humidity, cold, and they can easily be installed in almost any location like bathrooms, underwater areas, high splash areas and even water vehicles. However, they can be a little expensive. Make sure you choose the right LED lighting system for your home as the wrong choice can really cut into your budget. Remember that along with the lights, you will also have to set up a power supply for the lighting strips. Choosing the wrong lighting and setting up the wiring may result in frequent short outs and power supply problems. Where To Buy LED Strip Lights From? LED strip lighting is the most cost effective lighting possible for any home or commercial building. Installing the lights is easy but you have to buy the raw material yourself so that the process remains cost effective. The process becomes cheaper if you install the lights yourself. There are many places where you can find LED strip lighting at affordable rates and we’ve listed them here for you. Check your local hardware store Local hardware stores usually do store everything required for LED strip lighting projects. We recommend you check with them first. They will also be able to supply you in bulk and in many different rates and you will be able to find replacements with them as well. However, you should know that if you have a large project, you are better off buying your lights and wiring from a large manufacturer. Bulk dealers The internet is the best place to find bulk dealers in LED lights. Take the time to check online by using Google. You can start by putting the term ‘LED strip lighting suppliers’ in the search engine and it will produce more than ten million results in about two seconds. We recommend you choose a dealer who is located close to your country and who supplies inside your country. For example, if you are located in the US, choose a US manufacturer who will supply the LED lighting in bulk. Trade directories For larger architectural projects, trade directories are the best place to find good LED lighting. The only problem that arises here is that you will have import the lighting as most trade directories list suppliers from all over the world. You will get competitive rates as suppliers from China and Taiwan will list their LED lights online. If you have a stronger currency like US dollars or Euros, you can easily get your LED lighting very cheap. However, you will have to import the lights and this means you have to pay shipping, delivery, import charges, customs and even taxes on your imported goods. This may raise the rate considerably and it may not be worth it. Buying in bulk is the best way to make your LED lighting affordable. Buy from a local dealer if you are on a small project and import in bulk for large projects. We recommend you first plan your home lighting and then buy the strips and wiring in bulk. You can then start installing the wiring and lighting as you go along. As you’ve already purchase your lighting in bulk, you will not run out of supplies and you can continue your wiring and lighting project at your ease. Top Features To Look For In LED Strip Lighting. LED strip lighting is available in a range of colors, styles and designs. However, buying lights is a little confusing. How do you find the right LED strip lighting for a particular project and is there something that will help? Yes, buying LED strip lighting is difficult but we do have a few small tips that will tell you exactly how to purchase the right lighting for a particular project. Types of LED lights There are several different types of LED strip lights that are used on different projects. For example, you can choose from outdoor lights, indoor lights, display lights, etc and the price of each will vary considerably. We recommend you first decide the scope of your project and then choose LED strips and wiring according to your needs. Brightness The brightness of the LED lights depends on the number of LED bulb placed in per square meter of the lighting. You can easily find strips that have more than 200 bulbs per square meter and these lights provide a large amount of brightness. Apart from this, you can also find lights that have a smaller amount of bulbs per square meter like 120 bulbs and these will provide lesser illumination. Make sure you choose according to your requirements. Power consumption Strips with a larger amount of bulbs will consume more power. Some strips are also modified to include color-changing bulbs and this will increase the power consumption. However, you should know light changing strips will consume more power and this will cost you more. We recommend you check the quality and power consumption of the strip before purchase. You will also have to set up a wiring system for the strips and a wiring system with too little power will result in your bulbs shorting out or losing power. Safety Good LED lights are built to absorb or disperse the created heat into the underlying insulation layers. This is very important when you are using an LED meter with more than 200 bulbs per square meter. If you have set up the underlying insulation properly, your strips will last longer and they will not short out. Colors Brightly colored bulbs will cost much more than ordinary white or cream colored lights. We recommend you first check the color to understand how it looks. You can then choose colored or white colored lights according to your requirements. Please make sure that you match your LED lighting to your home project or your commercial project. If you do this correctly, you have nothing to worry about but if the power supply is too much or too little, you may have to face power outages and shorts.

Jessore Sloth Bear Sanctuary

Jessore Sloth Bear Wildlife Sanctuary, located in Gujarat, India, was declared a Wildlife sanctuary in May, 1978 A.D. The Sanctuary was primarily set up to house several species of sloth bear. It is located in Jessore on the boundary between Rajasthan and Gujarat, in India. Jessore Sloth Bear Wildlife Sanctuary exhibits a rocky and hilly topography, and it is now home to a huge range of wonderful but endangered species The beautiful Jessore Sloth Bear Wildlife Sanctuary, located in central Gujarat, now houses more than a thousand different species and tourists from all over the world visit the sanctuary to enjoy the flora and fauna. In a way, the sanctuary is also an important part of the local ecosystem. It continues the existing green zone of the region and extends it into the arid drylands of the state of Rajasthan, India. The wildlife sanctuary also plays an important role by conserving the existing Aravali ecosystem of the region. At present, the flourishing sanctuary separates the desert ecosystem from the surrounding desert region and the deciduous ecosystem on the fringes. The sloth bear is now an endangered species of animal found very few parts of Asia. According to conservationists, the species was abundant in the Asian region including Nepal, Sri Lanka, Bhutan and Bangladesh. However, rapid expansion and deforestation has resulted in dwindling numbers. Two subspecies have been recognized and are now under active conservation and they are: the Indian Sloth Bear (Melursus ursinus ursinus as well as the unique Sri Lankan Sloth Bear (Melursus ursinus inornatus). The Jessore Santuary in Gujarat, India, now has the largest number of local Sloth Bear population and conservationists frequently visit the area just to assess the beautiful species. A little about the Sloth Bear The Sloth bear is omnivorous and most animals are blackish brown pelt with a yellowish patch located near the chest area. Most animals have large feet and claws and they may grow up to 5–6 feet (1.5–1.8 m) in size. These animals are heavy in with males ranging anywhere from 175–310 pounds (79–140 kg) while non-pregnant females range from 120–210 pounds (54–95 kg). Researchers estimate that the animal has a very good running speed and it can run as fast as humans can or faster. Physically, the bear has a long muzzle and they are beautiful to look at. Most of the adult bears prefer to be around the dry forest or wet rain forest area. However, a few do move towards the grass lands and live around these flatlands. As they are omnivorous, they literally eat anything including insects like termites, seasonal fruits like mangoes and papayas and even honey in the summer. The bear can easily live for 25 years as they are keen predators with very sharp hearing. The Sanctuary is maintained primarily for the bears but birds like land birds, water birds, reptiles, snakes and crocodiles are also found in and around the sanctuary. Geography: The sanctuary is located in the Jessore hills of Aravalli hills, to the north of the Thar Desert. The Sanctuary is about 180.66 square kilometres (69.75 sq mi) at present but plans are on for an expansion to house new species. Wildlife: The Sanctuary is also home to other species like the leopard, wild boar, jungle cat, civet, caracal, sambar, blue bull, porcupine, wolf and hyena. Conservationists estimate that the area is now home to more than 14 species like the Indian Flap-shelled Turtle, Muggar, Indian Python, Varanus, which are all endangered. There are varieties of bird species found in this sanctuary and more than 105 species are migratory birds. The most valuable species at present are the Grey jungle fowl , , Indian Black Ibis, White-bellied Minivet and Painted stork. the Vulnerable category are White-winged Black Tit, Asian Openbill, Indian White-rumped Vulture, Indian Vulture, Red-headed Vulture andRed-necked Falcon. How to reach: By air: Ahmeabad airport is the closest and it is located about 190 kms away. Direct domestic and international flights are possible. By Rail: Iqbalgadh (8 kilometers) and Palanpur (35 kilometers) are the closest stations to Ambaji town in Gujarat. You will have to catch a bus or car from the station. By Road: Buses and private transportation is available from Idar, Ahmedabad, Palanpur (65 kms) and Mount Abu (45 kms). Best time to visit: Summer is the best time to visit the area as most of the species are visible. You should know that average temperatures are around 40 degrees with hot sandy winds. In winter, temperatures may go down to about 10 to 20 degrees. We do not recommend visiting the area during the monsoons but post monsoon season till winter is ideal as temperatures are mild and almost every species is visible.

Better Health For Women After 40


You may think you are too old but it is never too late to get back into shape. With the right exercise routine, you could ward off diseases like diabetes, high blood pressure and cardiac conditions and even manage to extend your life span. The British Medical Journal proved this fact by stating that men and women who adopted a healthy active lifestyle were likely to live 2.3 years more than the national average. The same study also showed that increased exercise between the ages of 50 – 60 could result in a higher overall life expectancy. Getting fit If you’ve never exercised, yes, it going to be difficult in the beginning but we are not asking you to jump right into a vigorous and embarrassing gym routine. You can start your day by incorporating a brisk walk, which will boost your body metabolism. This is a necessary step as body metabolism slows down after 30 and women find that it becomes increasingly difficult to burn off calories. As you age, the body also tends to lose muscle mass and gain fatty tissue making it even more difficult to lose weight. To prevent this from happening, trainers encourage women to find every opportunity to move about and exercise different parts of the body. Upping the routine Once your body is accustomed to a small amount of exercise, you have to increase your workload by adding resistance training. You can add free weights, bands, yoga, cycling, and Pilates to your routine to work out body muscles. Resistance training will actually tone your body muscles and help you lose fat and weight at the same time. Of course, you will have to join a gym and spend at least 30 minutes three times a week to get maximum benefits but you can start slow. As you progress, you can add cardiovascular routines and healthy eating which will burn off the fat and ensure full body fitness. A Word of Caution You can do as much exercise as you want to ensure that you are fit and healthy. However, before you start, make sure you get a complete medical evaluation done to rule out underlying medical conditions.

Every pet food brand on the market contains different ingredients but most

manufacturers stick to a ratio of 50% meat, 50% veggies, and a low grain mix in their food products to ensure pet health. Most manufacturers also add vitamins and minerals that follow the Association of American Feed Control Officials (AAFCO) regulations for pet food. However, when you are choosing a good brand, we recommend you follow a few tips we’ve listed here: Identify the meat protein by reading the product labels – Look for food items that contain a large amount of high quality protein. Most pet food brands will contain meat, poultry and fish ingredients listed sequentially on the ingredient list but that is not enough. For example, a pet brand will list the first ingredient as chicken protein. This should be backed up with two or three more ingredients that also contain processed animal protein. That means the first three to five ingredients of a brand should contain animal protein in different form to ensure a concentrate mix of proteins for your pet. Look for brands with a low amount of vegetable protein – Meat-based protein is far better for your pet than any vegetable-based protein. That said, every animal requires some vegetables and grains. Grains also provide an excellent source of energy and nutrients for your pet. However, to ensure optimum absorption, the grains should be present in whole form. Ideal grains for your pet include barley, quinoa, millet, brown rice, rolled oats, etc. Ideally, we do not recommend making your dog a vegetarian, as dogs require proteins for healthy skin and bones. They may not thrive on a vegetarian diet. Only buy pet food brands that you would eat yourself – This rule may seem highly amusing to some people but it is true. You wouldn’t eat white bread, processed meats, high sugar or high salt items yourself as it would be highly dangerous to your health. The same thing applies to your pet too. Avoid food items that are high in sugar and salt and which contain a lot of white flour, processed meat, preservatives, and filler proteins. The bottom line You are the only person who can choose the best pet food for your pet. This is because every pet is unique and you are the only one who understands your pet and his unique likes and dislikes. Every pet has a different calorie requirement and that means you do have to find a pet food that will suit your pet’s unique digestion, lifestyle and breed. Yes, this might take some time but once you find the right balance of proteins, carbohydrates and fats for your pet; stick to it and you will see your pet’s health improve immediately
