Here are some tips on how you can implement healthy eating among your children:

Tip #1 — Have more meals together at home

Eating breakfast and/or dinner together as a family is highly beneficial for bonding. By designating a specific time for meals and by making them pleasant times of the day where children can bond with the family, children will adopt a healthy attitude towards eating, and not think of it as either a source of stress or as something to turn to for comfort.

Additionally, eating together at home can make it easier for your children to have a healthy diet. Save dining out for special occasions, and eat the majority of meals at home to make sure that you set a good example to your children about the importance of healthy food.

Tip #2 — Get the children involved

From shopping at the supermarket to preparing food at home, try and get your children involved in the process of preparing food. Apart from being a fun an engaging experience, involving children in food

Shoulder pain is a common problem but there are tips to avoid it. (Getty Images)

Shoulder pain is one of the most common problems I see during health consultations.

Most of the time the client tells me, "Oh it's been diagnosed as... tendinitis, rotator cuff tears, impingement" and so on.

The problem is, that the symptoms of shoulder pain feel "about the same" no matter which part of the shoulder is damaged. It is very hard to tell what the cause of the problem is just by description of the symptoms.

The cause of shoulder pain is "multi-multi-multi factorial". The reason for this, is that the shoulder has 24 attachments and components that affect its function. Any one of these, or a combination of them can affect shoulder function and cause pain.

So, today we are going to cover 3 tips that can greatly reduce your risks of shoulder pain and if done progressively even if you are injured, they should improve some of your symptoms.

As usual, never push into sharp pain, or dull pain that does not go away in a few seconds. Below, one of the Genesis Gym instructors,

The recent spate of events has caused the Hougang by-election to become more than just a mundane affair. (Yahoo! …

COMMENT

A by-election which was expected to be nothing more than a formality to fill a vacant seat has turned into something else.

It all started earlier this year with allegations of personal indiscretions by the Workers' Party (WP) Member of Parliament (MP), Yaw Shin Leong. Subsequently, Yaw was dismissed from the party for failing to give an account of the allegations to his party leadership. According to the law, anyone who is no longer a member of the party with which he won his parliamentary seat is deemed to have vacated that seat. Yaw's seat in the Hougang single-member constituency (SMC) was thus declared vacant on 14 February.

That set the stage for a by-election in the WP stronghold, which the party has held for more than 20 years. Speculation followed on who the WP would field to replace Yaw, and whether there will be a multi-party contest in the ward.

The rumours and speculations continued — until the Prime Minister , under whose aegis resided the power to call

Fans of import rides and models have been anxiously waiting and frequently asking when the next Super Import Nights (SIN) will be. SIN is a homegrown aftermarket automotive exhibition with a wide range of aftermarket parts and accessories, modified cars and of course, car show models.

After a two-year break, SIN returns for its fourth instalment on 25 to 27 May 2012 at Singapore Expo Hall 3. As they get extremely busy preparing for the show, I managed to squeeze a quick word with Simon Foo and Chris Ang of Three Angles Production, the men behind this show.

Q: When was the last SIN?
A: The last SIN was held in September 2009, a week before the Formula 1 Singapore Grand Prix, also at Singapore Expo. Our first show was in 2007.

Q: Why the pause?
A: 2010 was a bad year with unstable market conditions and the outlook for the car market was bleak. Hence we decided to watch the market longer.
