Scan: What are Lingonberries?

Lingonberries are the national fruit of Scandinavia, an abundant wild fruit free for the taking by anyone with a basket and a little patience. Lingonberries pair beautifully with Scan’s flower-fed pork— all you need is a little Omega 3 Pork Belly, simply prepared with some salt and herbs, then plate with a few roasted vegetables and Lingonberry sauce drizzled on top. Magnific!

 

Lingonberries are produced by low, evergreen shrubs throughout Scandinavia’s forests, and are much smaller and juicier than their distant cousin, the cranberry. Lingonberries are the last berries to ripen in Autumn. Although lingonberries look bright red and attractive on the bushes, they are not good candidates for eating raw as they are quite tart and bitter. Sugar transforms them into a delicious sauce that goes well with pork and fish and is also enjoyed with bread, pancakes, desserts and preserves– or even cocktails! Here is a simple lingonberry sauce recipe:

Simple Lingonberry Sauce

 

Ingredients

4 cups lingonberries

1⁄2 cup water

1 cup sugar

 

Directions

Wash berries and place in saucepan; add water and heat to boiling.

Add sugar; stir to dissolve.

Simmer for 10 minutes, then remove from heat. Once off heat, stir sauce for several minutes while it cools. Serve either warm or cold.

 

Scan’s award-winning flower-fed pork has been featured in over 40 restaurants across Hong Kong and is now available at many ParknShop TASTE Supermarkets throughout Hong Kong. This is a great time to try delicious, juicy and tender Nordic pork, which is simple to cook to perfection, in any of your favorite meat recipes. We’ve also been hosting tastings of Scan’s tender and tasty pork each weekend at various ParknShop locations across Hong Kong through the end of 2017.

Fun Myth Busting Facts about Pilates!

 

Exercise has become a major necessity for every individual in today’s world. People exercise mostly to stay fit and healthy, as well as relieve stress. Exercise should not be age bound, it is something which individuals from any age group can do as a way to lead a healthy lifestyle. Iso Fit offers flexible exercise sessions that are customized according to the specific needs of their clients. Iso Fit, since its inception in 1998, is known for providing a range of Pilates and Gyrotonic sessions under the supervision of dedicated, experienced professionals. One of the reasons Iso Fit is so popular among clients is the mix of services one receives in any session – a combination of Pilates, Gyrotonic Exercise, as well as other exercises techniques such as Body Kinetics, Feldenkrais, Fit Ball, TRX, and Rommet Technique.

Pilates is known to be one of the most efficient ways to re-educate your body so you can move efficiently, stay pain free, get into shape and stay fit! Although it originated in the 20th century, there are still a lot of myths associated with the method. Let’s have some fun and bust some of these myths!

Here are 7 Myth Busting facts about Pilates:

Myth 1: It was always called Pilates.

The original name of Pilates is Contrology. Joseph Pilates, the inventor, intended it to be about the art of control, an exercise method where you control your body, mind, and muscles. The moves he designed, focus on core muscles in the “powerhouse” (abs, pelvic floor, lower back), proper alignment of the spine, and awareness of breath.

Myth 2: You need special machines to do Pilates.

Mat Moves are vintage Pilates. They have been prevalent since inception of Pilates and have proven to be effective and efficient in many ways. Machines are often used to assist with a movement which may be more difficult on the Mat!

Myth 3: Pilates is a form of Yoga.

Not true. While there are some similarities between the two, Pilates is an Exercise System of its own, developed by the wonderfully talented and visionary Joseph Pilates. These two systems, in their own way, focus strongly on improving all aspects of physical fitness (flexibility, strength, posture, muscle tone) and incorporate a strong body/mind integrative component.

Myth 4: Pilates is only for Women.

Nothing could be further from the truth. Pilates is for Men too! Pilates was invented by a man (a bodybuilder no less!), and many male athletes swear by it, including Lebron James, Kobe Bryant, members of the All Blacks Rugby Team, Andy Murray….Pilates is great for sportsmen and athletes! Converted yet?

Myth 5: Pilates is a fad.

It is true that many celebrities enjoy Pilates, for example, Lucy Liu swears by a combo of Pilates and running to give her a physical and mental boost. However Pilates has stood the test of time, and is only gaining in popularity, recognition and reputation both within the general and the medical community.

Myth 6: Pilates is only about the Core.

While it is true there is a strong focus on the core, Pilates is a whole body workout which dramatically and rapidly improves strength, flexibility, posture and overall alignment of the musculature and skeleton.

Myth 7: Pilates has too much Flexion

Pilates has a variety of functional movement patterns for the spine. Carla Mullins from Body Organics in Australia says “To fully appreciate Pilates we need to ensure that the movement patterns are representative of all the movements of the spine.   A balance movement class would have incorporated the flexion abdominal series but also a lot of other work from sides, four point kneeling to extension.” Well said!

Pilates is an excellent way to improve posture and flexibility, tone your muscles, and feel young again! If you are ready to get started, schedule your assessment session or book a group class with Iso Fit today!

The Crisis of Using Free Wi-Fi while Traveling

 

One of the easiest ways to be hacked in public is to use free Wi-Fi services. A hacker can intercept your name, address, credit card information and other personal details. A public network is unsecure. People who use it should know that it opens up their laptop, Smartphone or tablet to a third party who may be lurking around the area.

 

Free public Wi-Fi is everywhere. it is offered in restaurants, libraries, stores, and airports. It might be a convenient way to stay connected to the Internet, but may also put you in danger. Users should be more skeptical about free networks and should take precautions to ensure that their mobile device and information are safe and secure.

 

When you are on a free Wi-Fi network, you should avoid making any financial transactions or using credit cards. Identity thieves often use public networks to steal information that they use on their own shopping spree. According to security experts, it is easy to access one’s private information and this is why users should be on guard when using free Wi-Fi. Security experts also recommend not logging into one’s social network and email accounts while on public Wi-Fi. Too much personal information can be exposed to unscrupulous people that will allow them to guess passwords on other accounts and at the same time steal one’s identity.

The most dangerous type of public Wi-Fi is a network that doesn’t require a password. People are lulled into a false sense of security and think that the security software installed in their computer can stop any attack. A lot of people don’t know that a hacker can easily intercept communications made on free Wi-Fi.

 

 

 

 

There are some cases in which people think they are connecting to a legitimate Wi-Fi network, but in reality, they are connecting to a rogue access point. More often than not, users are directed to a rogue site that looks like a legitimate website that asks them to input information such as user name, password, or credit card numbers. How many times have you been in an airport and dozens of free Wi-Fi networks are available for you? It is important to ensure that you are connecting to a real network and not a rogue one.

When travelling you should equip yourself with a portable Wi-Fi hotspot, such as GlocalMe G2. It is a safer and more secure way of staying connecting to the internet. It is a personal hotspot that will allow you stay online wherever you go. There’s no need to connect to a public network when you can bring your private network with you.
