Pretty nice start with the code, certain parts sure sounds like The Box though. Loving the vibes of Different World 2013. Got a bit mellow with Serengeti and We Are. Tempo went up again with Nehalennia by Armin and Arty and also included in the A State of Trance 2013 compilation out on Feb. 14. Lovely vocal track from 4 Strings and Adria is such a lovely melodic track. Things picked up with Dharma, Superstar, Bananas, Drop Off and Breathe.

Second hour started with Shiga which sounds similar to a Gaia track. But wow, Communication again, this time its the Faruk Sabanci remix - this and other remixes will be out on Monday. Then the 138 bpm came into effect with Itaca. And WOW, the Daniel Kandi remix of Jewel is out of this world. Second week in a row that my vote won Future Favorite. Last 30 minutes was just uplifting with starting with Save the Life.

Bananas is pretty good tune and of course Communication was drop and I am dead! 10 years and its still an amazing track! And then Jewel, wow I was truly dead.
Killer guestmix by Lange with some old and new tracks. The mashup of Children was pretty good. Congrats to Markus for his IDMA nominations. Dark and melodic to start Markus' last 30 minute set with Nothing Without Me, Grey Goose and One Word. Elements of Nature is a deserving Global Selection.

Dabai Jeruk

For Sarawakian, dabai is from heaven but for West Malaysian it is an acquired taste i.e. ones need sometime to get used to the taste. I personally love dabai so much that I stocked a lot of it in freezer since it is seasonal fruit. Depending on the level of supply, the price ranges betwwen RM8/kg to RM30/kg. Here me making the preserved dabai in soy sauce.

Dabai in the process

BAHASA MALAYSIA VERSION

Buah dabai ni memang satu kebiasaan di Sarawak tapi takda di Semenanjung. Rasa nya lemak2 & sedap di makan dgn nasi. Selain dari di makan segar (rendam dalam air suam sehingga lembut), dabai masin juga amat popular. Kali ni Along buat jeruk kicap pula.... dapat simpan lama dalam peti-sejuk.

By: AlongRoz@HomeKreation

BAHAN2:

1 kg Buah Dabai

1 botol Kicap Manis

1 botol Kicap Masin

CARA2:

1. Basuh dabai sehingga bersih & masukkan ke dalam botol.

2. Tuangkan kicap menutupi kesemua buah dabai.

3. Tutup ketat & simpan di suhu bilik selama 2-3 hari sehingga isi nya lembut.

4. Siap untuk di hidangkan.

5. Simpan di dalam peti-sejuk supaya tahan lama.

Duck Fat Roasted Brussels Sprouts – P.H.A.T. with an “F”

With all the rich and decadent football party food I’ve been sharing lately, I’d thought I’d take a little break, and post a nice, simple green vegetable side dish. Of course, these beautiful roasted Brussels sprouts were just a prop so I could demonstrate using leftover duck fat, but still.

If you watch any amount of celebrity chef TV, you’ve undoubtedly heard them going off on the virtues of duck fat. They mostly pontificate on its deep, palate-coating richness, which is true; but they also like to point out the health benefits. That part is a little cloudy…you know, like saturated fat when it cools down.

Duck fat does have much less saturated fat than butter, and is higher in oleic acid, the stuff that makes olive oil so popular with the healthy eating gurus, but make no mistake, this is still an animal fat, and should be used in moderation. The good news: “in moderation” totally works!

A few tablespoons and a very hot oven is all you need to turn some sleepy vegetables into something much more special. As I mention in the video, bacon grease will make a fine (and even more flavorful) substitute, but if you do cook duck, saving the leftover fat is nothing short of mandatory. I hope you give this technique a try soon. Enjoy!

Ingredients:

Brussels sprouts (about 4-6 per person)

salt, pepper, cayenne to taste

enough melted duck fat to coat vegetables generously (about 2-3 tablespoons per pound of sprouts)

fresh squeezed lemon to finish

*Roast at 450 degrees F. until tender but still a little firm, about 15-20 minutes

U.S. Immigrant Population Continues to Grow

According to Pew Research Center, the immigrant population in the United States was 40.4 million, a record high for the country. In 2011, the 13% of immigrants living in the United States was slightly lower than the nation's peak at 15%, which occurred between 1890 and 1920. The 40.4 million immigrants in the United States are distinctly comprised of Latin Americans (50%) and Asians (27%), as opposed to the influx of European immigrants in the period between 1890 and 1920.

The population of unauthorized immigrants, a segment of the 40.4 million immigrants in the United States, were down slightly since 2007, from 12 million to 11.1 in 2011. Highlighting other trends relating to unauthorized immigration, Pew links to further analysis in other articles, which can be found here.

Kek Lapis Biskut Kacang Tumbuk

This is egg white layered cake flavored with peanut candy..... amazingly only used oil instead of butter in the recipe but still very tasty and moist. Some tips from me - do not overbake when recipe calls for egg whites only otherwise you'll end up with very fluffy and dry texture. That's the reason why my layers above are not as obvious as the normal layered cake,

Peanut Candy / Kacang Tumbuk

BAHASA MALAYSIA VERSION
Kek lapis ni hanya menggunakan putih telur dan juga tidak menggunakan mentega tapi hanya minyak sayur. Rasa nya lemak dengan perisa biskut kacang tumbuk (peanut candy) dan agak lembab. Buat nya juga agak mudah di bandingkan dengan kek lapis yg lain. Tapi hati2 ya, kek lapis telur putih jangan bakar lapisan nya terlalu lama takut nanti tekstur kek akan kering dan gebu. Sebab tu lah lapisan kek yg Along buat ni nampak samar2 jer.

Baked Crab and Artichoke Dip – A Snack So Nice, You Finish it Twice

Nothing says, “this party rocks” like a creamy, cheesy, baked dip, and when you’re talking about a hot crab and artichoke dip, people have been known to put an extra choice word or two before “rocks.” If only there were a big event coming up soon to test this theory.

Not only is this additive dip easy to make, it works with any budget. You can load it up with the finest fresh crab, use frozen or pasteurized lump crab meat, or even canned in a pinch. By the way, (and off the record) I’ve had these made with fake crab, and it wasn’t bad at all.

While the loaf of bread base does make for a nice presentation, not to mention recycled after party snack food, you can simply bake this in a casserole dish as well. As I mentioned in the video, I had a little extra leftover, and if this happens to you, give it a try as a stuffing for ravioli, wontons, or other dumpling-like delivery systems.

No matter which team they’re rooting for, all your guests will be cheering for more of this delicious baked dip. By the way, nothing beats watching your friends play tug-o-war with the crust once the dip is gone. I hope you give it a try soon. Enjoy!

Ingredients for 12 portions of Baked Crab and Artichoke Dip:

2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese

1/2 cup sour cream

1/4 cup mayonnaise

1/2 cup finely diced red bell pepper

1/3 cup chopped green onions

3 cloves garlic, minced

2 tsp fresh chopped tarragon leaves

zest and juice from 1 lemon

1 tsp Worcestershire sauce

salt and pepper to taste

cayenne to taste

1 pound lump crab meat, drained

1 (14-oz) can artichoke bottoms

6 oz white Cheddar cheese, divided

1 large round or oval loaf sourdough bread

About 30 min at 375 degrees F.

Lyrics: Kyau & Albert - Nightingale

No Video

Nightingale
Kyau & Albert

I can hear your song little Nightingale
As you sing it every night
All the woods are still little Nightingale
When you tell of hopes and fears

When you've found your love little Nightingale
I wish I could be the one
Then farewell little Nightingale
Lave with the morning sun

EUPH166 - Nights Awake is an album for dreamers, believers, and people whose minds and hearts reverberate with the collective energy that is dance music. Taking listeners through a tour de force of emotions, Nights Awake is exactly what an artist album should be. Epic in its scope and exceptional in its delivery, Kyau & Albert have woven a perfect sonic tapestry that transcends typical dance music confines to reveal the duo's true musical brilliance. Nights Awake features 15 songs ranging from beautifully emotive love songs to full on, hands-in-the-air club anthems that will certainly dominate dance floors around the world in 2013. Fans will surely recognize "A Night Like This" and "Another Time"; two massive hits that were both in heavy rotation for much of 2012 on satellite giant SiriusXM [BPM]. Utilizing their skills as songwriters Kyau & Albert have crafted a timeless album that fans of electronic music, no matter their genre of choice, will absolutely fall in love with. Powerhouse collaborations abound on Nights Awake such as; 'We Own the Night" with Stoneface and Terminal, "Euphonia" with Ronski Speed, "Could You Fall" with Adaja Black and "Robotron" with Marc Marberg. Impressive by any standards, but these collaborations are merely icing on the cake of this legendary release. The passionate resolve in Albert's vocal delivery married with the duo's enigmatic and enduring songwriting skills are the true heart and soul of Nights Awake. Listeners will be swept up in the emotional current of these masterful storytellers and become intertwined in the prose of unrequited love, confessions, beginnings, endings, acceptance and the unbridled release of all these things on the dance floor. After all, this is really what it's all about! Nights Awake is the duo's third studio album and the culmination of one and half years of studio work and countless demo testing to audiences each time they played until finally they felt it was exactly the album they had envisioned. You can absolutely feel the musical substance of this album, it has weight and raw passion to it. This is a real triumph for electronic music and an album that many insiders are calling their best work to date. Kyau & Albert have unequivocally raised the bar on what a dance music album can be. This is love a story. This is a broken heart. This is the connection we all share put to music. Play it once and it will forever become part of you. It is a rare feat to embody the sound and feeling of a moment in time, to reflect and connect so purely with an audience. Nights Awake is not Kyau & Albert's story, it's yours.

Letter RIP

Six Ways to Build Successful Teams

By Virgil Carter

Building successful, lasting teams is anything but easy. It takes committed leadership to build great teams. Team building requires “a keen understanding of people, their strengths and what gets them excited to work with others”, according to a recent Forbes article. Team building is an art and a science and “the leader who can consistently build high performance teams is worth their weight in gold, say the article’s authors. Here’s six ways successful teams are built to last:

1. Be aware of how you work: As the leader of a team, you must be extremely aware of your leadership style and techniques. Hold yourself accountable, make course-corrections when needed and modify your approach if necessary to assure that you’re leading from a position of strength and respectability.

2. Get to know the rest of the team: Take the time to get to know your team and encourage camaraderie. Understand how your individual team members think, and what is required to motivate them to work together and excel beyond what is normally expected.

3. Clearly defined roles and responsibilities: Each team member’s responsibilities must be interconnected and dependent upon one another. It takes talent and experience to evaluate people not only on their ability to play a particular role—but even more so on whether they fit the workplace culture and will be a team player.

4. Be proactive with feedback: Feedback is the key to assuring any team will stay on track and improving daily. Lead with proactive feedback as the greatest enabler for team continuous improvement.

5. Acknowledge and reward: Be sure to give teammates the proper acknowledgement, respect and reward. This helps the team’s work to bring them greater satisfaction and makes the work more purposeful.

6. Always celebrate success: Take the time to step-back, reflect and celebrate successful accomplishments, as well as what has been learned during the journey.
Leaders are only as successful as their teams.

Great leaders know that with the right team dynamics, decisions and diverse personalities, everyone wins in the end.

Wealthy Countries Continue to Struggle with High External Debt to GDP Ratio's

According to the World Bank, it appears that while some developing countries managed to balance their checkbooks despite the worldwide economic downturn, the struggle continues for wealthier countries to decrease their debt. In the United States, our external debt to GDP ratio has increased from 84.1% in 2006, to 100.2% in 2012. In comparison, Portugal's external debt to GDP ratio is the highest among all the countries measured. From 2006 to 2012, their debt ratio increased from 189.0% to 228.9%. Greece has the second highest ratio but endured the largest increase in the debt ratio. In 2006, the World Bank estimated that their debt ratio stood at 125.8%. By 2012, it exploded by more than 80% to 206.4%. France has the third highest debt ratio, 190.8%, followed by Germany at 170.4%, Spain at 169.7%, Italy at 118.9%, and then the United States at 100.2%.

Interestingly, despite the struggles of developed countries to stabilize their debt, developing countries continue to enjoy low levels of external debt to GDP ratios. China's ratio stood at 9.5%, followed by 17.2% for Brazil, 18% for India, 27% for Mexico, 29.3% for Russia, and 41.3% for Turkey.

At any time, in any world

Assorted Sarawak Acar / Chutney

Bitter Gourd Pickles

Today I learnt 3 types of Sarawak Acar (chutney) from my best friend mum who came from Kuching. It is my first time discovered such Acar and was very impressed. If you want to try, you can order from Alamak Restaurant :

1. Bitter Gourd Pickles
- not bitter at all with well balanced sweet & sour spiced sauce. Can serve as appetiser or side dish with rice and curry. Can keep about 6 months.

2. Calamansi Chutney
- very different in look and taste compared to the traditional Malay lime chutney which is typically red in colour and yet very balance taste of spicy, sweet and sour. Served as side dish for rice and dishes or eaten with glutinous rice.

3. Green Chili Chutney
- Crunchy chili stuffed with tasty filling. Served as appetiser or with rice & other dishes.

Calamansi Chutney

BAHASA MALAYSIA VERSION
Hari ni Along meluangkan masa di rumah sahabat baik Along sebab emak dia nak ajar Along buat acar Sarawak. Pertama kali dapat tahu dan merasa acar istimewa dari Kuching ni. Emak dia peramah, walau pun baru pertama kali berkenalan sewaktu makan malam kelmarin, terus aja dia pelawa Along datang lagi ke rumah nya untuk belajar buat acar pula. Along ajar dia buat Empurong dan Kerabu Kacang Kelisa dan dia pula ajar Along pelbagai jenis Acar Sarawak. Seronok nya kami berdua sama2 di dapur sambil berbual2 mesra.

Ada tiga jenis yg Along tunjukkan di sini. Kesemua nya tahan lama berbulan2 kata auntie tu. Rasa nya memang sangat istimewa dan ada kelainan dari acar biasa:
1. Acar Peria
   - tak pahit langsung - ada rasa pedas2, masam manis - boleh di hidangkan sebagai pembuka selera atau pun di makan dgn nasi & lauk sampingan lain.
2. Acar Limau
   - Sangat berbeda dari acar melayu yg selalu nya berwarna merah tapi tidak kurang hebat dari segi rasa.
3. Acar Cili Hijau
   - ini sesuatu yg amat istimewa - cili yg rangup dan di sumbat dgn filling istimewa. Di Kuching, ia nya di jual dgn harga RM1.50 sebiji.

Kalau sesiapa yg teringin nak merasa ni boleh lah hubungi tuan empunya Restoren Alamak ya. Takda jual pun kat restoren tu tapi dia boleh tolong spesel order.

The One
Kyau & Albert

And if it's true
This was my love, my time, my hope
I feel a little cold
See me I'm lost here in the rain

And if it's true
I never thought she'll go this way
And now my lover's gone
Left me alone here in the rain

I've never seen her like this
Now I feel like a stranger
Breaking down through the night
Now I fall

She was the one chance I had
She was the one to believe in
She is the one I still need
Now I fall

She was the one chance I had
She was the one to believe in
How will I know what she needs
When I fall

Lyrics: Bon Jovi - Bed of Roses

Bed of Roses
Bon Jovi

Sitting here wasted and wounded
At this old piano
Trying hard to capture
The moment this morning I don't know
'Cause a bottle of vodka
Is still lodged in my head
And some blonde gave me nightmares
I think that she's still in my bed
As I dream about movies
They won't make of me when I'm dead

With an ironclad fist I wake up and
French kiss the morning
While some marching band keeps
Its own beat in my head
While we're talking
About all of the things that I long to believe
About love and the truth and
What you mean to me
And the truth is baby you're all that I need

Chorus:
I want to lay you down in a bed of roses
For tonight I sleep on a bed of nails
I want to be just as close as the Holy Ghost is
And lay you down on a bed of roses

Well I'm so far away
That each step that I take is on my way home
A king's ransom in dimes I'd given each night
Just to see through this payphone
Still I run out of time
Or it's hard to get through
Till the bird on the wire flies me back to you
I'll just close my eyes and whisper,
Baby blind love is true

Repeat Chorus

The hotel bar hangover whiskey's gone dry
The barkeeper's wig's crooked
And she's giving me the eye
I might have said yeah
But I laughed so hard I think I died

Now as you close your eyes
Know I'll be thinking about you
While my mistress she calls me
To stand in her spotlight again
Tonight I won't be alone
But you know that don't
Mean I'm not lonely I've got nothing to prove
For it's you that I'd die to defend

Repeat Chorus 2x

Lyrics: BT vs. Sasha ft. Jan Johnston - Remember Magnetic North

Classic Fridays:
Remember Magnetic North
BT vs. Sasha ft. Jan Johnston

I know how you feel
I’m feeling it too
I hold my heart, I dream of you
I see your face, I feel it, too
Searching skies
I need you, I, miss you

Take this and hold
My love for you
In separate times we think as two
In paradise I’ll drown in you
Still searchin' skies
I need you
I want you

Searching for strength
Can I face this day
Blinded by your lovely stare
You’re always there, you’re in my head
Still chasing skies
I need you, oh, I miss you

Searching for strength
Can I face this day
Blinded by your lovely stare
You’re always there, you’re in my head
Still chasing skies
I need you, oh, I miss you

I love you, love you
I love.. only you, I love.. you..

Remember me near
There may be times when it’s not right
For me to be there
But remember me near

Remember
