~ HEY!EAT LIKE ME! ~

Eating Healthy = Living Longer

"Healthy Foods"
"High Fat Dairy"
"Meat, Fried Foods, & Alcohol"
"Breakfast Cereal"
"Refined Grains"
"Sweets & Desserts"

The "Healthy Foods" group had higher intakes of low fat dairy, fruit, whole grains, poultry, fish, and vegetables as well as lower intakes of meats, fried foods, sweets, high-calorie drinks and added fat. This group had a 40% lower mortality rate than the "High Fat Dairy" group did and a 37% lower risk than the "Sweets & Desserts" group did. There was no significant difference between "Healthy Foods" and "Breakfast Cereal" or "Refined Grains". This study is a promising look into how eating right may reduce your risk of chronic disease and death from it.

As I stated early and as nearly all published studies do, more research is needed in this area to make stronger conclusions but it's nice to finally get some positive feedback on eating right and staying healthy!

~ THE DAY THAT CANNOT BE BELIEVE! ~

"...I WAS THERE..."
 
Singapore Indoor Stadium’s all-times attendance record for the venue was finally broken when 15,000 Iron Maiden’s fans came to watch the English heavy metal band from Leyton in east London, Iron Maiden, played in Singapore for the first time in history.


The Final Frontier World Tour is in conjunction with the band’s fifteenth studio album, The Final Frontier, that was released on August 16, 2010 worldwide.

I bought a Pen A ticket (S$178 + S$3) online on November 10, 2010. Not very sure that I can last standing for 3 hrs without sitting. Almost sold my ticket away to another fan but the deal was off when they were not prepared to pay the money first.

There were crowd control management, queue systems and ushering problems when I reached at the Singapore Indoor Stadium (7pm). Fans who came around four to five were not allowed in the stadium when it started to rain heavily. Everyone got drenched and pissed and broke through the barricade.

I was quite surprised that Pen A queue was from one end to the other end of the stadium entrances, while at Pen B, fans do not really need to queue.

Bruce Dickinson remarked that an Englishman he met had warned him about Singapore’s lifeless concert crowds. From my previous experiences watching concerts at the Singapore Indoor Stadium, I’m quite agreed with the Englishman. But this concert was different, I was surprised that most of the 15,000 fans were standing, clapping, swaying, singing and hopping like a rabbit! He also said that this will not be the first and the last concert for them.

Overall the concert was AWESOME! Bruce Dickinson was all over the stage, climbing up and down the higher stage. Their energetic performance and stamina shows that Rock will never dies. My SGD181 was well spend and paid the price for standing too long. I had problem walking properly in the middle of the night to go peeing. I won’t mind paying more if they come here again. The stage, the lighting and the sound system were all perfect. I loved the album covers backdrop that changes when the band was performing songs from the albums.

Some fans were moshing in Pen A. I think Moshing and Circle Pit are only suitable for hardcore/punk shows but not rock/metal shows. As we were try and make some space for the circle pit, those behind me were pushing forward. All sorts of trouble might happen if people do not cooperate. For those youngsters, please don’t do it again.

~ THE LIVING LEGENDS ~

The Maidens Attacking Asean!



LAMC Productions is proud to welcome rock legends IRON MAIDEN on their first ever visit to Singapore. The concert will take place at the Singapore Indoor Stadium on 15 February, 2011 as part of The Final Frontier World Tour. IRON MAIDEN will be arriving in their specially customized Boeing 757 airliner Ed Force One which will be transporting band, crew and their entire 10 ton stage production 50,000 miles right around the globe …and piloted by lead singer Bruce Dickinson, a qualified Airline Captain.

The tour is in support of a new Maiden studio album, ‘The Final Frontier’ released in August on EMI Records (UME in the US) which has proved to be their most successful chart-wise in the band’s illustrious career to date, being the No.1 selling album in 28 countries. Here in Singapore it reached No.5, the band’s highest debut in this country.

Founder member and bass player Steve Harris comments “It’s been a long-held ambition of ours to play in Singapore and we’re delighted the opportunity has now come around. We’re really looking forward to seeing our fans there for the first time and playing songs from the new album and of course many older fan favourites too! We’ll also be bringing a spectacular live show including the latest incarnation of Eddie who has to be seen to be believed! It’s going to be a really special night”.
