                                        Ice Skating...







Whether it’s winter or summer, ice skating can be a great year-round activity to keep you active and fit. Of course, you don’t always need a frozen lake to enjoy ice skating, as many major cities have indoor ice skating rinks that allow you to enjoy the activity even if it’s 100 degrees outside. The stability, control and strength involved in ice skating, either competitively or recreationally, are key elements in the activity that make it a fun and healthy activity for all ages and abilities.

ADVANTAGES...


Better balance: Ice skating helps improve your balance through fun and positive exercise. Travelling across an incredibly slippery surface should quickly train you to stay on your feet.




Improves joint flexibility: If your leg joints creak every time you rise from your bed in the morning, ice skating could offer a real solution. With its emphasis on quick foot movements and strong knees, your leg joints will receive a great workout and hopefully feel more flexible in no time.



Builds leg muscles: Focusing on lower-body movement, ice skating offers great exercise for the leg muscles, building and toning them up over time.



Cardio: Aerobic exercise is an important aspect of cardiovascular health, and ice skating provides a great aerobic workout. The best part about skating is you get a great cardio workout without even knowing it.




Endurance: Ice skating requires energy over an extended period of time, making it a great way to build your endurance. The longer you skate, the more you’ll improve your endurance, not just for ice skating but for other sports and activities as well.



Weight management: If you are trying to lose or maintain your weight, ice skating is a good way to burn calories while having fun! Ice skating burns from 300-650 calories per hour, depending on how hard you skate.



Stress relief: Regular physical activity like ice skating can help combat the effects of stress. Ice skating is one of the most fun ways to exercise, especially if you skate outdoors where you can soak up the scenery and enjoy nature.



Mental fitness: The fresh air and sunshine in outdoor ice skating, as well as the company of family and friends, greatly help in unwinding from a long week of work and stress. Self confidence is definitely improved as well.

         MAHINDRA THAR YOUR ADVENTURE BESTIE..




About Mahindra Thar Specifications...

 The poor man’s Jeep Wrangler is offered with two engine options - a 2.5-litre m2DICR engine and a 2.5-litre CRDe. The former of the two produces 63PS/195Nm and is available with two- or four-wheel drive systems. The latter is tuned to generate 107PS/247Nm and is the one to opt for. Both engines come mated to a 5-speed manual transmission, whereas the 4WD variants feature a low-range gearbox as well. It is this off-roading tech and the availability of a mechanical differential lock that makes the Thar simply one of the best vehicles to go serious off-roading in. There is no automatic as off n ow. Maybe that will come into the equation with the new-gen Thar which, by the way, is being developed. Mahindra hasn’t bothered to reveal the mileage figures no matter how bad we want it.


Specifications Summary of Mahindra Thar...



  • Mileage : 16.55 kmpl 
  • Engine Displ. : 2498 cc
  • Transmission : Manual 
  • Fuel Type : Diesel
  • Boot Space : 384-litres
  •  Power Windows : N

Mahindra Thar Price in Delhi...
Mahindra Thar price in Delhi starts from Rs. 6.47 lakh (Ex-showroom). Thar is available in only 3 variant. Mahindra Thar's top competitors are Force Motors Gurkha (price starting at Rs. 8.20 lakh in Delhi) and Maruti Gypsy (price starting at Rs. 5.70 lakh in Delhi).


Latest On Mahindra Thar...
The upgraded Mahindra Thar has been launched in India, it gets a cosmetic update and a mechanical rear locking differential.

In 2017, the Mahindra Thar is offered in a total of 5 variants: four powered by the DI engine and one powered by the CRDe engine.

The Mahindra Thar is priced between Rs 5.93 lakh to Rs 8.89 lakh, ex-showroom Delhi. Direct competition is limited to the Maruti Suzuki Gypsy and the Force Motors Gurkha.

The Mahindra Thar is offered with two diesel engines - a 1.5-litre (2498cc), turbocharged 4-cylinder 'CRDe' diesel motor and a 1.5-litre (2523cc), turbocharged 4-cylinder 'DI' diesel motor. Both the engines are paired to a 5-speed manual transmission. While the CRDe is only available with a 4x4 system, the DI can be had either with 4x2 or 4x4 systems.

The Mahindra Thar is one of the last old-school SUVs on sale in India. Launched in October 2010, the retro design, back-to-basics features and great off-roading capabilities made it a hit amongst enthusiasts who had come to revere older Mahindra Jeeps. Mahindra introduced a refreshed Thar in July 2015 with cosmetic and comfort features to make it more appealing.

Recipe Servings: 6        Prep Time: 10 Minutes      
Cook Time: 01 Hour     Total Cook Time: 01 Hour 10 Minutes

Ingredients Of Chicken Reshmi Biryani

  • 1 kg chicken (broiler), cut into 8 pieces
  • 1 kg onions, sliced uniformly
  • Oil for frying the onions
  • 1 cup finely chopped hara dhania (coriander leaves)
  • 1/2 tsp garlic paste
  • 1/2 tsp ginger paste
  • 1 Tbsp powdered dhania (coriander seeds)
  • 1/2 tsp haldi (turmeric)
  • 2 tsp chilli powder
  • 1/2 tsp garam masala
  • 1 cup (200 g) dahi (yogurt)
  • 1 Tbsp salt or to taste
  • For the Rice:
  • 2 cups (360 g) basmati (long grained rice )
  • 1/2 tsp salt or to taste
  • Water
  • Some dough to seal the pan

How to Make Chicken Reshmi Biryani

1.Heat enough oil in a heavy based broad pan or kadahi as will take in the onions comfortably (the onions should be covered with the oil) and fry the onions in it till brown and crisp

2.Strain the onions and the oil into a strainer, and keep aside.

3.Marinate the chicken in the garlic and ginger paste, dhania , haldi, chilli powder, garam masala, yogurt and the salt, for 3-4 hours at least.

4.'Almost' cook the rice in water to which salt has been added-- Bring water to a boil, add the rice and salt, cook till the rice is almost cooked (takes about 8 minutes). Drain the rice and keep aside.

5.Heat 1/2 cup of the remainder of the oil in a large heavy based pan with a lid and add the chicken to it, spreading it to form a layer.

6.Over the chicken, make a layer of half each of the rice, onions and coriander leaves.

7.Repeat the same layers a second time and cover the pan, sealing it with some dough (grease the edges before applying the dough, so that the dough comes off easily later on).

8.Let it cook on high heat for 10 minutes, then place on a tawa (griddle) and leave on low heat to cook for about an hour. Alternatively, you could cook it in a moderate oven for an hour.

9.Break the seal and serve either in the same pan or transfer on to a serving dish.
