In dire moments, it’s the split seconds that count and matter most. Just recently, Mathew was in a situation in which the ICE number came handy. Since it worked for Mathew, he thought of spreading the word. Even if it saves one life, it’s worth it.
The ICE (acronym for In Case of Emergency) campaign was launched in May, 2005 and is the brainchild of British paramedic Bob Brotchi. He said the idea came to him "just from reflecting on difficulties I've had in obtaining information about patients. The vast majority of people don't carry emergency contact details or next-of-kin details, but the vast majority of people carry cell phones. Most [paramedics] spend time looking for a cell phone, not knowing who to call. It occurred to me there might be a uniform way of doing this."

((POSTING ON A LIGHTER NOTE))
Just recently, Mathew was lazing around at home cursing himself for not going to the gym. That time Mathew couldn’t help but wish for an easier way to stay fit where one wouldn’t need to sweat it out on the boring tread mill. A miracle occurred and the Jan 2009 edition of the Men’s Fitness Magazine fell into Mathew’s hands. It had an article on staying fit and Mathew picked up the Top-10 LAZIEST Ways to Stay Fit without breaking a sweat, for the lazy (yet restless) bums like Mathew ;)
#10. USE STALL ONE
After testing over 50 public toilets, researchers found that the stall nearest to the door consistently had the lowest bacteria levels. The reason being, people tend to go as far from the door as possible for privacy, but the increased numbers mean that the stall furthest the door is more frequently used and therefore less clean/hygienic. It was also the one with the least amount of toilet paper.
#9. DITCH THE ANTIPERSPIRANT
Use a basic deodorant instead of antiperspirants which are designed to trap sweat and that works in opposition with the way your body does.
#8. USE MOUTHWASH
Rinse your mouth with something like the alcohol free Dentyl. It will reduce oral bacteria, which in turn significantly decreases your risk of a heart attack, according to researchers at the University of Buffalo. It will also stop your mouth smelling like a blocked drain.
#6. A BANANA A DAY
Reported to be the best selling fruit worldwide, a banana should be part of everyone's diet. Benefits are too numerous to list here, but highlights include their ability to boost energy, improve mood, reduce the effects of hangovers, and help the body recover from the effects of nicotine withdrawal.
#5. BROWN BREAD INSTEAD OF WHITE
Switch to whole meal bread, as the additional fiber content will make you feel full for longer and the grains offer slow-release, superior sources of energy. Also, the flour for white bread is often bleached using potassium bromate, benzoyl peroxide or chlorine di oxide gas - none of which is especially good for you.
#4. GAMES ARE BETTER THAN TELEVISION
Plug in the console, as playing video games improves your performance in situations requiring precise hand-eye coordination. The experience of gaming also releases dopamine, which was found to develop neural pathways from the brain to the hands. It's also a great stress buster to plug in & mow down hoards of Nazis in Call of Duty: World at War. Surely, Mathew’s kid brothers & sisters would agree.
#3. WATCH A SCARY MOVIE
Anything that causes your heart to race is good for you, according to researchers at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Centre. They say that upsetting the rhythm once in a while is like hitting your heart's reset button, helps it keep on ticking.
#2. STAY UP LATE
Too much sleep can reduce life expectancy, according to a study in the Archives of General Psychiatry. They found that people who sleep more than eight hours per night had a significantly higher death rate than normal, while people who sleep between six & seven hours per night tend to actually live the longest.
#1. STAND UP
Whenever you talk on the phone, get up off your backside. By simply standing just one extra hour over the course of the day, an average 80 kilo man will burn 90 more calories, according to calculations in the Journal of the American College of Sports Medicine.

((POSTING ON A LIGHTER NOTE))
All work and no play makes the kids, dull boys. Mathew realized that there’s to mush of serious stuff on his blog, so he thought of posting something on a lighter note. Taking a trip down memory lanes, Mathew presents to you his Top-10 List of Best TV Show One-Liners.
#10: “BYGONES” (RICHARD FISH in ALLY McBEAL): The self proclaimed insensitive M.C.P (yet adorable) Richard Fish couldn’t get enough of “Bygones” throughout the 5 seasons of Ally McBeal.
#09: “PUH…PUH…PICUHHH….PICKIPSEEEE” (JOHN CAGE in ALLY McBEAL): If Richard Fish couldn’t get enough of “Bygones”, John Cage couldn’t get through an odd moment in his life without “puh…puh…picuhhh….pickipseeee”; at least not until he found solace with Barry White.
#08: “DON’T EAT ME; I HAVE A WIFE & KIDS. EAT THEM” (HOMER SIMPSON in SIMPSONS): When it comes to saving the family from aliens, there’s no one who protects his family better than Homer Simpson.
#07: “MAKE NO MISTAKE ABOUT WHY THESE BABIES ARE HERE – THEY ARE HERE TO REPLACE US” (JERRY SEINFELD in SEINFELD): And since we’re on the topic of loving kids, there’s no one who describes the reason for why god sent babies to this world, better than Jerry Seinfeld.
#06: “OHHHH MYYYYYY GODDDDDDD” (ALL FRIENDS in FRIENDS): This one lured us for 10 seasons. Not sure if there ever will be a 11th season, but be rest assured, if there ever will be a 11th season, there will surely be more of “OHHHHH MYYYYYY GODDDDD”.
#05: “BY THE POWER OF THE GREYSKULL. I…..HAVE….THE…..P.O.W.E.R” (HE-MAN in HE-MAN & THE MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE): Those were the days; standing in bare minimums, holding a piece of wood and yelling “IIIIIIIIIIIIII HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAVE THE POWERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR”.
#04: “I THINK I SAW A PUSSY CAT….I DID…I DID SAW A PUSSY CAT” (TWEETY in SYLVESTER & TWEETY): Ever wondered, how, although Tweety was always around Sylvester, yet each time she saw him, she would “think” she saw him.
#03: “IRRESPONSIBILITY ISN’T A SICKNESS – IT’S AN ART” (REMINGTON STEELE in REMINGTON STEELE): Before he was bond, he was…..Remington Steele. Pierce Brosnan said it best and Mathew wishes his parents could hear it.
#02: “CALL 911… THERE’S A HANDSOME MAN IN MY MIRROR. OH WAIT, CANCEL THAT…IT’S JUST ME” (JOHNY BRAVO in JOHNY BRAVO): Don’t we all remember the self obsessed male blonde who thought he was god’s gift to [wo]mankind.
#01: “HOW YOU DOING???” (JOEY in FRIENDS): This one needs no introduction. Joey made these 3 words the most famous pick-up line. Not to forget Joey’s movement of his brow while saying it.
Add your comments and let Mathew know which one was your favorite TV One-Liner (especially if it's not in Mathew's Top-10).
