North-East Community Colour Run Residents bonded through a meaningful run themed upon racial cohesiveness | By Siti Murnira Komari sitimurnirak@thenet.com.sg “The Color Run” 5K marathon is less about competition and more about exercise and enjoying a colorinfused day. The event, which is being held in over 30 major cities, includes people of all different speeds, ages, shapes and sizes beginning at the starting line in a white shirt and getting pummeled with colorful dust at each kilometer. If you make it to the finish line, a final explosion of color powder awaits you. Though people can run for charities, this unique marathon encourage all walks of life to exercise. This year’s race begins at 4 p.m. and is in conjunction with The Color Run, an organizer of 5Ks nationwide that involve runners clad in white being painted with various colors throughout a 3.1-mile course. “The Penn State Homecoming committee asks the campus community to have patience during The Color Run on Sunday,” said Sarah Kurz, public relations director. “The

Bistro by the Punggol River - Frienzie Bar & Bistro

Punggol residents have shared that the scenic location makes the bistro especially attractive.

PHOTO: SITI MURNIRA

Newly opened last month, the Frienzie Bar & Bistro is attracting crowds with its delectable western fare and scenic location | By Siti Murnira Komari sitimurnirak@thenet.com.sg Nestled in a quiet and serene corner of Punggol is Frienzie, a new Bistro & Bar that opened earlier this year. Sporting wholesome, value-formoney western fare, it has already become a popular destination for families and friends living in the area to gather. The place has become so popular that it is usually full by 7pm, even on weekdays. The restaurant takes reservations before 7pm. For drivers, there is also ample parking within the compound. There is much to love about the calm and friendly ambience – located right along the Punggol River, the scenery of the natural forests, hills and water provides for a restful and relaxing atmosphere to unwind with after a hard day’s work.

Al-fresco dining is also available and while the restaurant is open-air, it’s still very windy and cool. Gazing out at the un-spoilt beauty of nature, one almost feels as if this little jewel of a place is part of a paradise retreat and not part of Singapore at all. Kick-back and relax in one of their comfortable lounge chairs to the sounds of bossa nova and jazz from their stereo, with some booze from their bar, or enjoy some of the following chef nightly specials. We were so excited to be at Punggol, along a stretch of beautiful greenery, with a small hill and a long river – very picturesque. This is the new Dempsey. Between a Chinese cze cha restaurant, Wendy’s, and a Western chill-out place, we picked the last one. How to get there? If you’re traveling along Punggol East Road, you’ll come

Once you past the track, make a U-turn immediately. you’ll see a plant nursery on your left, and you may feel tempted to turn in – but resist the temptation. Immediately after the nursery, at the temple, turn left. Many beer-drinkers (executives who came after work) at this place, so I suppose the beer is inexpensive? I wouldn’t know because we are teetotalers. We ordered: Buffalo Wings (6 pieces for $8.90); Sirloin Steak ($22.90), and Hot Fudge Brownie ($8.90). The Brownie was the saving Grace, or more precisely, saving halfGrace, because it was steaming hot. The table beside us who also

ordered brownie had their ice cream still intact because the server probably served it up faster. Although the brownie was delicious, I thought brownie isn’t hard to bake. All in all, the food is not great; there is nothing to complain about the service; the atmosphere is fantastic, with the dark rattan tables and comfortable easy chairs and jazz music by the river.

Iskandar Jalil holds exhibition in Sengkang Many curious residents were present at the ‘Shakei’ pottery exhibition to meet Mr Iskandar Jalil, the master in pottery

Growing up, dance was my entire life outside of academic school since I was three. I really didn’t know much else. At that time I did every genre of dance possible: ballet, tap, jazz, lyrical, musical theater, competitions. So my opinion of dance was that it was something that I did. I was part of such a great group of girls and boys coming up in the school, and we were all friends and we all enjoyed being at the studios for hours because that was all we knew. We didn’t seek anything else out to do. I don’t remember ever having days where I didn’t want to do it. and I never remember a day where my mom said, “You have to do this.” Ever. In fact, we would always be the last ones to leave the studio, because I didn’t want to or because I was so involved in everything that it would

all of sudden be 11 PM! I never wanted to be late for anything, and that drove my mom crazy. She had so much that she had to do for me. She was probably the one sometimes, with the mindset of being so tired that she didn’t want to go to the studio that day, but she knew that I didn’t want to miss a day, so she didn’t. My year at the South Carolina Governor’s School for the Arts and Humanities was definitely a growing up year. I was 14, and it was my first year living away from home. The only arts department that allowed 9th and 10th graders was the dance department and basically I already knew many of them. My brother had been part of the inaugural class, so I knew a lot of his friends and my best friend was already up there, so I had lots of friends to keep me company. At the time, it was really the only place to go for me to get good training, because my studio in Columbia had closed down after my teacher, Miss Ann Brody had passed. I wasn’t ready to take the next step.

“Shakei”, a pottery exhibition by renowned ceramicist Mr Iskandar Jalil and the Temasek Potters officially opened on the evening of 20th November 2013. Held at the Glocal Connect Village Art Gallery, the exhibition was graced by Mr Haruhisa Takeuchi, the Ambassador of Japan to Singapore and Mr Boo Kheng Hua, the Principal and CEO of Temasek Polytechnic. The exhibition, which will run from 21st Nov to 10th Dec, is a creative collaboration between the Centre for TransCultural Studies (CTS) and Temasek Polytechnic’s School

PHOTO: SITI MURNIRA of Design BeyonDesign Centre. The concept of the exhibition was adapted from the word “Shakkei”,. It is the principle of incorporating background landscape into the composition of a garden found in traditional East Asian garden design. This concept is incorporated on the surface of the pottery works at the exhibition. Mr Iskandar, 73, founder of the Temasek Potters group, is a highly regarded local ceramicist who received the Cultural Medallion (Visual Arts) Award in 1988. Mr Philip Sim, said: “I came mainly to see Mr Iskandar Jalil’s exhibits. His style and his art form are rather zen-like, which connects really well with me.”

Jonathan Wong will be performing at the Jazz Arts festival on 16th January | By Sim Yu Xiang

For those of you unfamiliar with the name Jools Holland, he’s the British pianist, bandleader and TV presenter – oh, and ‘king of boogiewoogie’. And he’s busy. As you flick leisurely through this magazine, Jools will be whizzing around the UK with tour dates in London, Newcastle, Birmingham, Manchester, Nottingham, Cardiff, among other places. He has his BBC Radio 2 programme on Monday nights at 11p.m. and of course his famous show Later… with Jools Holland, which appears on Friday evenings on primetime TV (some 42 series to date).

Don’t forget his cult-like Hootenanny, the annual TV show that sees in the New Year. That show hits the 20-year mark this year and I’d imagine he’s preparing for it already. No wonder I’ve been allocated only 20 minutes with Jools. I’m here to talk piano playing. I want to know how he has created his ‘once heard, never forgotten’ style. What’s his secret? It all began with the influence something or someone. Jools tells me, ‘The first thing that I remember was hearing my Uncle Dave play boogie-woogie.’ Abeffrecontea Satique publicaecto ariteatrum seni cordiem men ta visco doloren ent volendis assiweuw?

Tampines Rovers Football Club can confirm that former Singapore international Noh Alam Shah has agreed terms to join the Club once again for the 2014 season. This is the second time that the former crowd favourite will be rejoining the Club after having done so in 2012 during the mid-season transfer window. The 33-year old striker has agreed personal terms last Saturday to rejoin the Stags on a one-year deal.

Alam Shah, who tasted domestic success between 2004 and 2006 as well as 2013 with Tampines Rovers returned from his year long stint in Indonesia with Persekap Pasuruan three weeks ago. He began training with the Stags during the last two weeks before the current season concluded. “Noh Alam Shah has been training with us since his return and he was also here to see the club crowned Champions of the Great Eastern YEO’s S.League for the third successive year. “He has played alongside some of the best footballers in this region

Hence, we will need quality players in the squad. “Alam Shah is a player who has proven that he can succeed at the highest level, and therefore he will be a good addition to the team. We look forward to working with him and bringing back more champion titles

this year. ” he added. Andam vil consinatuam, furo ex movid dit, quam suam fitatus haccientrum serit, Castim hostime pes! Em coneque ommorte.
