Do I have to do any thing special to download the latest rosters for madden 12, or is it even possible? With the 12 draft class and FAs, etc. I downloaded a newer roster but its still from last year.
The new game is less than a month away. They're not going to have next year's rosters in last year's game.

I just hope this year's Madden will bring me back to the series. Been reading and it sounds promising, but I'll wait for a slew of reviews first. They better make franchise mode worth playing multiple seasons.

I'm not buying a new one for the roster, this is the first time I've even touched it since Christmas.
Oh my.
Of course, I highly doubt Conan got to level 38 without learning how to talk to people, let alone kill them.
Come to the Dark Side -- There's cookies!
Chris Smoove is gonna get flown out to 2k 6 weeks before release to play 2k13. If he posts a youtube review, I'll def trust his review.
His announcement
Really hope this game is good.

I've been playing a little bit of Modern Warfare 3 again the last few days. Just sticking with Team Deathmatch.
I'm going to load up Diablo 3 here in a minute after an unexpected, extended break.
First quadruple double in long awhile against the Bobcats.
28pts, 11boards, 12dimes, 10steals, 3blocks
Don't mind the 7 TOs.
With the #3 pick in the 2015 draft, your Indiana Pacers!
Popped Gran Turimso 5 back in for a quick play last night. So much potential to be a great game, so poorly executed. This has to be one of the most disappointing games for me ever. GT4 was one of my favorite games ever and far and away better than GT5.
I downloaded an updated roster on 2K12 for all the rookies and trades through the weekend.
Then started Creating a Legend with Lance Stephenson making him the backup point guard. I traded Augustin to the Nets for Brooks (did that before I started the game).
Through 2 games I'm only getting about 13min/game so far and averaging 7pts, 5boards, 4dimes - 2TOs
All I can say is that Gerald Green is a beast off the bench!
Granger, PG and Hibbs are averaging about the same amount of points at 16/gm.
Beat Det easily. Had the lead against OKC as I ended the 2nd quarter. Didn't get back in the game till 2min left in the 4th and we were down 12. Only lost by 7pts thanks to a quick dime and a last second 3 by Lance(me!). The shot was even reviewed...first time I'd seen that...and my shot counted!
Lance has been a struggle cause his on ball defense is terrible right now. I'm trying to get my consistency up first, pushed it from almost nothing to around 55 now. Once I get that up to 75-80, I'll focus putting some points in shooting. Defense will have to wait right now.

They have an actual graphic for reviewing a shot? Don't think I've ever seen that.

Yeah, I know. Showed a ref holding a headset to his ear and watching a monitor at the scorers table. Pretty sweet.

2k12 My Player
Ok, so this was by far the worst game of my career. The computer was doing everything possible to make me have a bad game and have my team lose a game. So much computer cheesing going on...mostly the shot clock cheese. God, that better be fixed for 2k13.
24pts, 5boards, 7dimes - 5TOs! Most of those TO were complete BS. I'd have a guy open, throw them the ball, but it's one of those slow motion lobs that was easily picked off. Or, I'd have a guy open, I start to pass and then all the sudden, the guy moves...but moves in a way that he goes behind the defender which means I just threw the ball right to the defender. WTF!? Most of my points came in garbage time, as I said ***** it and just started chucking up shots. I think I shot like 40% in that game. Missed 2 wide open, not a defender even remotely close to me, A+ shots. So damn frustrating. Seriously, I have not made an A+ shot in a long time. Not even joking. Probably have missed 20 straight A+ shots. Hell, I was on fire a couple games ago and the first shot I missed was a wide open A+ shot. That better be another thing fixed for 2K13. I should be making that shot more than 50% of the time. Shouldn't make it all the time, but I should be making that way more than I should be missing.
Still won the game you farking computer AI ******** cheesing-cheater.

Played the Madden 13 demo. Played pretty nice. Still had some flaws from last season like the kicker/punter constantly kicking it out of bounds.
The online play has me intrigued as well as the legends. Only wish 2K would have done this with 2K11 and 2K12. They have so many legends in the game, but they don't offer then as rookies. So disappointing. I'd love to play with Julius Irving or Wilt.
My favorite player of all time is Barry Sanders. I would love to put him on the Colts and start playing!
I told myself I would never buy another Madden until they improved the Fanchise mode (although they call it something else now) and improve online play. Seems like they've done both. I like the sound of Online play, but I still don't know if you can start a franchise with a buddy...coop style. Anyone else know? I know you can start a league with two or more, but the talk I've heard makes it sound like you have to be on separate teams.
I'll probably pre-order the game today.
With the #3 pick in the 2015 draft, your Indiana Pacers!
I'll probably get Madden for the first time in a couple years just cause of Luck.
Been playing a ton of DOTA 2 lately.

I wish the next Xbox would come along already.
Thinking about getting CS: GO. Can get it for 10% off before it officially launches and you get access to the beta. %10 saves you $1.50
Oh and TJ, how are you liking Dota 2? I got a key, but haven't used it much myself. I do enjoy it, but just need to learn so much more.
Well it's probably the least forgiving PvP game ever created so there's definitely a learning curve. So rewarding though when you actually start having a positive impact on your team.

Won the Heisman with Ralph Bolden on NCAA Football 13. Clearly a very realistic game.
I preordered Madden, 2K13 and Borderlands 2.
I think I'm going to cancel Madden. None of my friends want to pick it up, so what's the point. Just have to wait 1 month for Borderlands and then 2K13 will come out in Oct.
Oh, for those wanting 2K13, check out these vids. 2K flew out some video bloggers to try a more recent build of 2K13, as well as ask questions.
Sounds like 2K13 is gonna be awesome.

I picked up CS GO. I haven't played a ton yet, but it feels good. Its not 1.6. Its not Source (thank god). But it feels good imo. I think it will be a damn good game and at $15, if you like competitive FPS games, it would be dumb not to get it. Still $13.49 for another day or so too. My opinion doesn't hold much weight on it, but owner of team Complexity (one of the best CS teams back in the day), Jason Lake's does. He's enjoying it so far and thats a good sign.
NBA 2K12 online is seriously broken...No, the game is just broken. Come on 2K13, don't let me down.

Mr. Chairman, Members of the Commission, it is an honor and a privilege to present this testimony to the Tom Lantos Human Rights Commission. I welcome the opportunity to outline how the United States Agency for International Development is helping to address the challenges faced by indigenous peoples in Colombia, Panama, and Peru and throughout Latin America.
As your leadership has highlighted, food security is one of the highest priorities for U.S. development assistance. Food security ranks as a high development priority not simply because the United States is determined to meet our moral obligation as a great nation. The food security of developing nations is integral to our national security--hunger and poverty perpetuate instability, and food shortages are acutely destabilizing. Developing bodies and developing economies both need steady sustenance to thrive. Food security facilitates stable lives and sturdy, resilient nations. Our comprehensive approach seeks to respond to the staggering scope of the food security problem, a problem that has expanded in size in the past few years, affecting the lives of more than 1.1 billion people who suffer daily from want of this most basic of human need.
I know this is a time of great economic strain for so many Americans. For every dollar we invest, we must show results. That is why this budget supports programs vital to our national interests. The United States must be able to exercise global leadership to respond to crosscurrents of a complex world. This requires the effective use of all instruments of our national security - including development. We agree strongly with President Obama and Secretary Clinton's vision of embracing development as indispensable to American foreign policy and national security. It is through this relentless dedication to results that we do justice to our motto, 'from the American people.' We do this not just by extending a helping hand, but by sharing the hopefulness of the American dream in places where hope remains shrouded by poverty, oppression and despair. In many cases, the balance between a future filled with fear and a future filled with hope is fragile. Every day, USAID tips the scale toward hope and opportunity.
Good morning, Chairman Payne, Ranking Member Smith, and members of the Subcommittee. Thank you for the opportunity to testify before you today.
Good afternoon, Chairman Payne, Ranking Member Smith, and members of the Subcommittee. Thank you for the opportunity to testify on U.S. development policy in Africa today.
Chairwoman Lowey, Representative Granger, distinguished members, thank you for inviting me to testify on the FY 2011 Global Health and Child Survival (GH CS) budget request. Before I begin, on behalf of my staff at USAID and the people we serve, I want to commend the strong leadership of this Committee, and thank members of Congress for your longstanding support of health programs.
Chairman Towns, Ranking Member Issa, and esteemed members of this committee, I thank you for extending the invitation to appear before you today. I look forward to providing you with an update from the U.S. Agency for International Development on our efforts to strengthen processes and procedures related to suspension and debarment activities. I understand that this committee seeks answers on how USAID is responding to the recent October 2009 report issued by USAID's Office of the Inspector General (OIG), titled "Audit of USAID's Process for Suspension and Debarment."
Chairman Tierney, Ranking Member Flake and other distinguished panel members, thank you for your kind invitation to testify before you on this topic of U.S. assistance to Pakistan. I will keep my oral remarks to the requested five minutes by asking that my full written statement be entered into the hearing record.
Chairwoman Lowey, Ranking Member Granger, Members of the Committee, I am honored to join you here today in support of the President's Fiscal Year (FY) 2011 Foreign Operations Budget Request.
It has been less than two months since I was sworn in as Administrator for the U.S. Agency for International Development.

SCOTTSDALE, AZ—U.S. Rep. Harry E. Mitchell (D-AZ) joined The Foundation for Advancing Alcohol Responsibility to bring Ask, Listen, Learn: Kids and Alcohol Don't Mix to students at Mojave Middle School today. In partnership with PE4Life, The Foundation for Advancing Alcohol Responsibility created an interactive, physical fitness activity that builds on the existing Ask, Listen, Learn program and encourages kids to "say 'YES' to a healthy lifestyle and 'NO' to underage drinking." The initiative is based on recent research by Harvard Medical School's Dr. John Ratey, showing that for a person's brain to function at its peak; the body needs to move. The interactive activity, as well as a supporting website, encourages kids to live a healthy lifestyle. The website also provides parents with information and strategies to help jumpstart the conversation about the dangers of underage drinking.
"Encouraging kids to talk about tough topics, such as underage drinking, can be challenging," said Congressman Mitchell. "Ask, Listen, Learn's interactive fitness game is an engaging way to teach kids about the benefits of a healthy lifestyle, as well as the health risks of underage drinking."
Dana Fudurich of The Foundation for Advancing Alcohol Responsibility added, "According to the National Survey on Drug Use and Health, more than 17% of 12 to 14 year olds report they have consumed alcohol in the past month. Our Ask, Listen, Learn program has the potential to further reduce these numbers, as 80% of 12-14 year olds believe alcohol education has made a difference in the decision they have made regarding alcohol."
"We are excited to have The Foundation for Advancing Alcohol Responsibility here today with their Ask, Listen, Learn program. As educators, we understand the importance of parents and teachers talking to kids early and often about the negative consequences of underage drinking and believe the interactive activity The Foundation for Advancing Alcohol Responsibility brought today will highlight the positive results of both living a healthy lifestyle and saying no to underage drinking," said Principal Aguliar, Mojave Middle School.
Developed over six years ago, Ask, Listen, Learn has already reached millions of parents, kids, and teachers around the country. In 2010, Ask, Listen, Learn's new initiatives include:
- Asklistenlearn.com encourages kids to "say 'YES' to a healthy lifestyle and 'NO' to underage drinking by offering kids interactive and educational games and videos.
- Any kid can become a member of the Ask, Listen, Learn Team by taking a pledge to make healthy choices.
- Ask, Listen, Learn will utilize role models such as Speed Skater Apolo Anton Ohno and professional swimmer Dara Torres as "SuperStars." Ask, Listen, Learn Team members will be encouraged to read Questions and Answers from SuperStars to learn how elite athletes dealt with peer pressure as they were growing up. SuperStars will encourage kids to make responsible decisions and live a healthy lifestyle. Through a public service in association with Sports Illustrated for Kids, positive messaging will appear in various print and online advertorials as well as interactive games over the course of 2010.
- Ask, Listen, Learn will have a supplement in Time For Kids where teachers may find information about the program and how to incorporate it into their lesson plans, kids can tear out posters, and can play educational games to learn about living a healthy lifestyle and saying no to underage drinking.
The Foundation for Advancing Alcohol Responsibility
Launched in 1991, The Foundation for Advancing Alcohol Responsibility is a leader in the fight against drunk driving and underage drinking and promotes responsible decision making regarding beverage alcohol. The Foundation for Advancing Alcohol Responsibility is funded by: Bacardi U.S.A., Inc., Beam Global Spirits & Wine, Inc., Brown-Forman, Constellation Brands, Inc., Diageo, Hood River Distillers, Inc., Pernod Ricard USA, and Sidney Frank Importing Co., Inc., For more information about Ask, Listen, Learn or The Foundation for Advancing Alcohol Responsibility, or to order a copy of the program free-of-charge, please visit www.responsibility.org and www.asklistenlearn.com.

Onion and Cilantro Relish
The next element in the Kogi short rib tacos was the "cilantro-green onion-lime relish". This relish sounded pretty simple except that when looking at photos of the Kogi tacos I always saw square white onions in addition to the elliptical green onions. Since I have often used a simple sweet white onion and cilantro relish in tacos before I decided to make a more generic onion and cilantro lime relish with both the green and white onions in it. This is such a simple condiment and yet it is really amazing. The onions in it add a nice sweet element to any dish followed a mild hidden pungent bite. A really nice freshness is added to whatever this condiment is used in by the cilantro and lime combo. The green onions are a nice addition to this version adding the Korean aspect to the relish.
Onion and Cilantro Relish(makes 4+ servings)
Printable Recipe
1 sweet onion (chopped)
1 bunch green onions (sliced, optional)

Midwest Living Review
Located alongside busy US-82 and next to Dakota Square Mall, Alaska Alder Grill is a bit of a dining anomaly. There's the sign out front, hand-painted to read: Serious food. Steak Walleye Halibut Prime Rib Salmon All-Eat Home Side. Huh? And there's the tepee out front; you can sit inside and dine there at tables, if you'd like. There are tables on an outdoor patio, some of which are near a fountain that bubbles out onto the ground, plus an outdoor bar. The inside struck us as a Western-themed version of the Cracker Barrel chain restaurants: lots of interesting Native American and Western art and stuffed bison, some kitschy Beatles knickknacks. Some of the tables are well-made solid wood with matching chairs; some of the booths are cheap with fast-food-standard tabletops.The weather was pleasant, so we sat outside and ordered some fried mozzarella sticks to satisfy a craving. They were from the freezer but cooked fine and sated that need. For dinner, we tried the salmon served planked on the cedar wood and coated in a peppery honey-mustard sauce with mashed potatoes and sweet corn alongside. The sides are what you'd find at grandma's house, and they were good. The salmon was exceptional, packing in great smoky flavor, thanks to the wood plank. But the house-special bison burger topped with ham and cheese was so overdone, it was bone dry. Our waitress volunteered to take it off our bill and offered to bring another, which is great service. We decided instead to just enjoy the salmon and order dessert -- chokecherry ice cream from North Dakota's Bottineau Pride Dairy, a lovely pink ending to match the sunset. Dinner for two ended up being about $40, which was reasonable for all we ordered. We'd go back to Alaska Alder Grill again, despite the bad burger, because the service was so warm and the atmosphere just right for a fun summer night out.

However it does not work at all with Ubuntu 12.10. After I install catalyst the PC becomes unbootable, not even in safe-mode. So far I have tried clean installs with Ubuntu, Kubuntu (just in case it was a compiz thing), and then installing the driver from the repositories and also from straight amd.com downloads. This is clearly a catalyst problem. Yes, maybe I am incompetent for you linux l33ts. In any case AMD is not going to see my money again. I have had nvidia cards for years and their drivers always worked great for me.

Also make sure sure to run "sudo amdconfig --initial -f" at the end of installation(manual or from repos). You probably did that, but I mention it to be on the safe side.
Btw, by unbootable, you mean like black screen with a blinking cursor, it just hangs when about to launch X, your wallpaper is the only thing appearing, kernel panic message and forced to shut down. Mostly curiosity. If I have a clue of what you could do more I'll share with you for sure though. Cheers.
**Edit: It may be bootable with nomodeset if Catalyst breaks it still. No 3d, but you can restore it to before and fix it possibly(desktop probably not working, so I'd suggest using a virtual terminal then). If it's not bootable even with that after installing Catalyst, there's probably some serious stuff going on there ...
Last edited by Rigaldo; 11-06-2012 at 02:37 PM.
Thank you for your help though!
What about adding nomodeset to GRUB entry before booting?(press "e" on the entry and add "nomodeset" at the end of the line starting with linux, then press F10). Doesn't boot still? Weird that it's like that .. I don't recall facing this situation any time ..
The only thing I can think of that could work is trying out a PPA that downgrades X.org and allows to install the legacy drivers for Ubuntu 12.10(not recommended though ..). In the weird case the driver treats the card as a 4xxx series(for example it might basically be a 4xxx overclocked, I think they do some stuff of this kind, or just a bug). It's crazy enough to work ..
I suggest you file a bug if you want to as well, to AMD or Ubuntu(the latter will have to forward it to the first anyways).
I guess I have no idea then .....
@zoomblab just some explanation why some people went aggressive against you and your post:
What you said (in your first post) was, that your graphiccard does not work with AMD's driver.
What you meant was that AMD's driver does not work with Ubuntu 12.10.
Also while it helps reducing frustration, it doesn't help you with your problem to write such a post...and while you may not be able to hack around this, someone somewhere has figured out how to solve the problem (in fact, in all the years I am on the interwebz it was only in two or three cases that I was the 'first' person to encounter a real problem. (aside from beta tests of games)).
In the future, if you've the urge to write such a post. Do it, but after you are done read it think about what you really want (that the problem goes away) think how this post will help you with that task (not much), take a deep breath (not a must), delete the text in the unposted textbox and create a thread in the appropiate forum and ask for help. Also check your favorite search engine's search results.
Good day/evening/night.

http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownloa...eon_linux.aspx there is link to wiki http://wiki.cchtml.com where all this things is explained?
Did you know, Catalyst 12.10 is incompatible with Ubuntu 12.10, and you need to install drive from Ubuntu repository or 12.11 Beta instead? (It's explained in wiki too.)
Looks like you tried driver from Ubuntu repository, but without at least dmesg and Xorg.0.log (you may take it using LiveCD) there is not much we can do to understand what fail on your setup.
If you have unbootable Ubuntu 12.10 with Catalyst 12.10, then boot from this disk/flash go to Advanced>Rescue>answer bunch of questions>select system partition>Execute a shell in your system partition. Now you can remove driver and, if you want, try again with 12.11 Beta (if result will be the same - give us logs this time).
I have installed nvidia driver 304.64 in mint 13 mate 32bit (ubuntu 12.04), on a 7600GT. This driver seems to run great and what little 3D content I could run ran smooth.
I copied a few warez games for Windows from a remote host, only Warcraft III works reliably or at all (but with a sound bug) ; I could run CS:Source's stress test totally fine (not a local server with bots, plain Wine 1.4 was not up the task).
So I'm confident Steam will work and give me playable games. I'd wish to get DoD:Source and CS:Source, which I never played (I had Steam many years ago with all the HL1 games but even then I would rather run Counterstrike 1.5)
Driver was a bitch to install, after troubleshooting (don't forget to set up a readable text console on ctrl-alt-f1/f2/etc.) I made some progress : I had driver 295.40 present in the package manager, so I needed to uninstall those packages. Then nvidia 304.64 installation, from the downloaded 38MB "script", still failed. Now it's nouveau that pissed me off, so of course you have to blacklist the module but I missed something for some reason, then I get the desktop working in VESA, I don't remember why I did that but it was nice being able to do so.
Then it was fixed, 304.64 was correctly installed.
But at almost every step, I would frantically try to fuck with the /etc/X11/xorg.conf, and called "service mdm stop" and "service mdm start" a billion times. Now I remember, nvidia driver used to say in a text mode error message, "No screens found", it took me some time to clean up the xorg.conf with some stupidity hanging in it (a Screen "1", the old 8400GS as Device "0", Modeline stuff I had failed to get working but was still there)
And the worst thing is, my xorg.conf says Driver "vesafb", but it's the nvidia driver that runs! (it took over when it was correctly installed and working)
I know this stuff isn't always easy but having to fuck around this much as an experienced user, with some things that don't make sense, is too much. Anyone else I know (barring a couple of people) would have given up, or even left the computer unable to start a graphical session and reinstalled the OS.
Years back I remember nvidia driver installation from terminal totally painless on Ubuntu 8.04 and/or 10.04 (or was it 7.04). A pain in the ass on Debian Lenny, but the successive fixes for the failures were more logical.
I've found a good account on how to run fglrx on a radeon 4800 in ubuntu 12.10
Support has been dropped from AMD, so what you can try is downgrading the Xorg server. See there on comment number 71 :
I stick to nvidia GPUs, as even when a GPU gets put in a legacy status, the driver is frozen but updated for newer Xorg servers and fixing critical bugs (if there were any). So the 7600GT I now run is good to go till 2017 (then, I could stick do a distro version of year 2017 for a few years if I still want to run it)

Squid Curry Recipe (Indian Gulai Sotong Recipe)
My parents are huge fans of nasi kandar–a type of Mamak/Indian-Muslim food consists of steamed rice with a variety of curries and other side dishes. (Click here and here for a peek of a nasi kandar restaurant and its many colorful dishes.)
When I was little, my parents would always take me to nasi kandar restaurants. I remember vividly their old joint in Georgetown, Penang. Whenever I go home to Penang, I would take my parents out to savor a meal or two of nasi kandar at their favorite restaurant/stall. Regardless of where we go, there is one dish that we never miss out–gulai sotong, or squid curry. So, it's no surprise that my mother makes a killer squid curry at home (which I've fortunately learned).
There are two secret ingredients of a great squid curry: curry leaves and a blended spice mix of cumin, fennel, black mustard, fenugreek seeds. Curry leaves impart a highly aromatic flavor to the curry and the spice seeds add that signature and unmistakable Indian curry kick. I love hard-boiled eggs in curries, so I also added some eggs. Click here to see the real squid curry served in Penang…
Malaysia celebrates its 50th Independence Day (Hari Merdeka) on August 31st. Hence this post also marks my entry to this year's virtual Merdeka Open House hosted by Babe_KL. Please click here to view my Kerabu Bee Hoon entry last year.
Special notes to my fellow Malaysians:
I used to take Malaysia for granted, well, when I was in Malaysia. There were always something to complain about–the educational system, the urban planning, the environment, media, government, and the list goes on.
Recently, I was in a meeting with a Taiwanese business partner. She told me in great enthusiasm that she just came back visiting Malaysian Borneo of Sabah and Sarawak. She used to work in Singapore for 8 years and it was very clear that she adores Malaysia.
"Malaysians should be really proud of their country." She said.
Her statement made me ponder. If a foreigner can love Malaysia so much, why can't we?
"I am very proud of my country. It has so much to offer!" I replied.
I do love Malaysia–as a matter of fact–a lot.
Selamat Hari Merdeka!

Hmmm! That looks absolutely delicious!!
I am so glad to hear of your business partner pleasant experience in Sabah and Sarawak, because I am from Sabah. hehehe.
Woo…Baba's fish curry powder…I remember MW told me good things about Baba's chicken curry powder too. Everytime I go to any Asian store here, I will look for it but so far…no luck :(
I used to complain a lot back in S'pore too but after I came here, I am more appreciative. Now I complain about the US of A :O
I wonder how the term "blur as sotong" came from. This dish is so sedap!
clap!!clap!! nice dish…will try ….
i like sotong v.much….sometimes i'm juz blur like them also…haha!
The quality of life in Malaysia is, I gather, much better than Indonesia.
I am mesmerized by the squid. Squid is one of my absolute favourite things to eat.
hi, really love your blog. this is like everyday thing. viewed your blog everyday in the morning. is like part of the things to do. pls tell me how can i get the curry leaves? should i get the dried basil? is that the same? or any frozen from the supermarket? i am currently at new jersey. close to new york. regarding the spices….can i get it at the regular supermarket? thank you…so much.
yeah~ i m in China
r u a chinese girl?
I'm drooling on my keyboard now… ;-)
i heart curry :) yums
I'm so going to cook this one for sure. Hmm…got to check what is fenugreek in French.
I'm proud to be a Singaporean even though I bitch about the education system etc. :)
hi rasa :
I am first time leave comment here ,I look at all your post even the old post. you are a great cook your disher not only look good it wel present too .
I love you blog
weldone xxxxx
im no fan of curry nor nasi kandar but kari sotong and telur … best!
Selamat Hari Merdeka to u both too.
Wow! Looks really good. Today my neighbor went to the Pike market in Seattle, WA. It is a fish market. She asked me what I need. I told her to get me some squid. She asked me how much. I did not really tell her how much instead I form my two hands and said this much. She came back with 1 squid. I looked at her and she looked and me. Both of us were just laughing so hard. Oh! Well I have to wait to try this dish. But it just looks sooooo good.
my mum hardly cook gulai sotong but she always cook sotong with er… some kind of dark sauce. BUT i always take gulai sotong when i'm in a nasi kandar stall! oh and i love the sotong egg too in nasi kandar stall.
Looks sooo sedap! Love the color of your gulai and everything else! Very nice picture!
really love your picture. looks so yummy. can i use the baba meat curry powder instead? thats all i got. what can i get the spices? can i cook without the spices? thank you!
I was so stoked when I saw both curry leaves and kaffir lime leaves in the larger of the two Irvine 99 Ranch Markets. Bliss!
Haiyo…I leaving tissue company di…Howlah?
*reaches for kleenex to wipe drool*
Ming – Thank you. :)
Mandy – I have yet to go to Sabah, I wanted to go so much!
Tiga – next time you go back, smuggle some back, maybe Singapore has it?
Snoopy – you are funny. LOL.
Elmo – yeah I think so. :)
Cynthia – I love squid too but I hate to clean them…so I don't make them as much at home. ;)
Anonymous – thanks for your nice comment. I am not familiar with NY, but try finding curry leaves at Indian food stores. For the spices, you can get them from the Indian stores too. If they don't have the pre-blended ones, you can buy the seeds separately and mix them yourself. :)
Yoyo's Food – yes, I am a Chinese, but I was born and raised in Malaysia. Now I am in the USA.
Piggy – you are a great cook yourself and I drool over your dishes too. LOL.
Budding Cook – the curries in Malaysia taste different from the Indian curry we get here, but they are good.
The Cooking Ninja – LOL. I don't know what Fenugreek seed is called in English at first and
Pearly – thanks for your sweet comment. You're too nice. :)
Princess – I like only a few kind of curries myself. But give me hard-boiled eggs or any sotong in curry, I will be in heaven. :)
Khunying – your comment really cracked me up…that's really too funny. Too bad you didn't get many squid, as Pike's place market has the freshest to offer…next time. ;)
Lucia – those sotong eggs are saturated with cholesterol, but never mind, eat first is more important. LOL.
Little corner of mine – yeah, the use of chili oil gives the curry that reddish curry instead of just yellow. Very sedap indeed. :)
Anonymous – if you don't have the fish ones, meat powder will work as well. Instead of using salt to flavor your curry, you can use fish sauce. Try it and let me know how it goes…;)
CP – Oh really? OMG, I haven't seen curry leaves in R99 for a long time now…mine was given to me by a friend who owns a restaurant. Gotta stock them up…the smell of the curry leaves are so "addictive" don't you think? I can just sniff them all day long….wahhahaha.
Unka – Time to start using hankerchief…buddy. :P
Love your food blog – keep it up!
PS – A difference is your friend went to Borneo. Tht is something to be proud of yes. Borneo is very different from the Peninsular as you can imagine. Borneo is still pristine,laid back and still very green.. for now..
fuiiiiiyoohhh….. so yummy! saliva dripping just by looking at your pics….
I've never had squid curry so thank you for sharing this recipe you've learned from your mom. Needless to say, it looks scrumptious!
You know I feel the same way about the Philippines. Before I left to live away for a while, I took a lot of things here for granted. It was only while being away and speaking with foreigners who visit my home country that I realize I needed to explore and appreciate my own backyard more. And I try to. It's nice to be reminded though. :)
BTW, echoing your Taiwanese business partner, you must be real proud of Malaysia! I spent a nice long weekend in Sabah and came home raving about it. You have such a beautiful country. And don't even get me started on your diverse and captivating cuisine!
thanks dear for such a lovely entry. now this is the kind of writeup i'm looking for, a great recipe with some childhood story to it. perfect for this year's theme – Muhibbah!
Selamat Hari Merdeka!
Happy Independence Day! :) That curry looks amazing…have had different curries but never squid…must try that one day! Thanks for sharing your recipe :)
selamat hari merdeka!
The curry looks so wonderful
C – thanks for your comment. I have never been to Borneo myself. Really want to go there, maybe the next time I head home to Malaysia.
Meiyen – hehe. ;)
Christine – squid curry is good. It's very popular in Malaysia. Yeah, we need to learn not to take things for granted. By the way, which part of Sabah did you go. I think there are many places to explore in Sabah. ;)
Babe – thanks for your comment and thanks for organizing the virtual merdeka open house again. It was fun making the dish.
Joey – thanks. Squid curry is good, you should try. I love it. :)
Andaliman – Hehe…thanks. Is there a similar dish in Indonesian cuisine? I need to learn more about Indonesian cuisine…
Just to Kota Kinabalu. I've written some posts about it which you can find under "Index" on my page. :) We had a great time at the markets, the ATV Safari, the canopy walk at Kinabalu Park, and the beautiful beach at Rasa Ria.
I was thinking this gulai sotong is similar to Acehnese culinary in Indonesia. Acehnese culinary had influenced from Indian which uses variety of spices.
One of my favourites is Cumi teutumeh. Don't ask me what teutumeh is meant, Cumi means sotong. It uses some kinds of spices and some characteristics of Acehnese cuisine are belimbing sayur/wuluh or bilimbi (Averrhoa bilimbi) and asam sunti (dried bilimbi)
I've just come back from a quick stopover in Malaysia and have also been reminded that it is a great country! And i'm not just talking about the food ;-)
the curry looks wonderful! n we do complain about the list you mentioned, isnt it? lol. but still always will miss the food and our family back home =)
selamat hari merdeka!
instead of using baba's fish curry powder, u can try ADABI Ketam/ikan kering curry powder-the taste so yummy…
Bee – this is one great looking squid curry! And advance Happy Malaysian Independence day! Speaking of which, I read your comment over at Christine's blog, Ramblings of a Gypsy Soul that you are going home to Malaysia? Can you bring back some packets of bak-kut-teh mix to sell, pretty please? I'll be your first customer! I tried looking for some in my local Asian supermarts but they do not know what it is :(.
Yup am a Malaysian who recently landed to London. I miss all the Malaysian food after browsing this site! You did a good job fren ;P
I too love Malaysia eventhough I'm true blue S'porean but all that has been changed lately. All that because of the crimes rates that getting higher and higher in Malaysia from few years back. I still do like Malaysia but not so much now and I always shudder just to think of getting into JB. No more shopping spree in JB and thank goodness that I managed to sell my lovely terrace house in the lovely neighbourhood which is still laden with crimes and most importantly I can now sleep in peace eventhough in small and peaceful HDB flat in S'pore.
hi, i found your website on googles, I'm interested in ur recipe and i wanna have a try on this Gulai Sotong, but i'm not sure how to get the spice mixes and also what kind of chilli oil shall i use? would you enlighten me please? thanks
For the spice mixes, you can get them from Indian stores, just tell them you need Indian 5-spice mix, or you can get the spices invididually. I listed the names of the spices. For the chili oil, you can also get them from the store…any chili oil is fine…it's more for coloring purposes.
Hi thanks for ur feedback, however my area does not have any indian stores, can i find them at hypermarkets such as Carrefour or Jusco in Malaysia?
i have a whole heap of them lying in my pantry from my last trip back, but havent got around to using it. Good ol babas. A1 curry mix not bad as well.
thanks for the recipe!
omg! i havent had gulai sotong for like ages. Im so going to try your gulai sotong recipe this weekend.
I made your curry, but I thought 4 tablespoons of curry powder seemed a lot. I don't have access to Baba's in the UK so I bought another fish curry powder.
It was really strong! I like my spicy food, but this was a bit too intense…perhaps Baba's is not as strong?!
Anyway, your site is great; keep up the good work.
Love your recipes and great photos – definitely cookbook worthy! I am going to try the squid curry recipe and a really wicked Rice Cooker Chicken Rice method (Hainanese Chicken Rice – w/o having to fry the grains in chicken fat or separate pot to boil the fowl) tmr for my family and baking for the first time – wish this virgin-baker luck!
Keep up the great site – you're really inspiring me to cook more often again! I got homebrewed beer and fresh-made thin crust pizza on my to-do again this year for Xmas!
The spice mix you have used is called "Panch Phoron" in India, literally means 5 spices for tempering. Mostly used by East Indian recipes.
Being bengali we used it a lot and add distinct flavor to the dish.

This recipe is amazing! I'm returning to California after a long visit in Singapore and thought it will be next to impossible to have delicious sotong curry again.
Recently I tried sotong at a nasi padang stall that was cooked in black gravy which I'd assumed was dark soy sauce. When I complemented the proprietor/chef and inquired she surprised me by saying it was actually squid ink! Googled for it, but couldn't get results. Do you happen to know the receipe?
I enjoy all your blogs and the terrific pictures alongside easy to follow write up makes your site a delight. Thanks!
Thank you, this curry is soooo delicious.The only comment is that my sauce was thicker then in your picture, and I boiled it for 7 minutes.But…Next time, wont do it so long.Thanks a lot.Lovely
Why can't we love Malaysia? It's really easy to love from abroad – when you can actually call yourself Malaysian as opposed to Malay, Chinese or Indian, where the racist policies are but a distant memory and where you only remember what you want to – the food.
oiya thanks utk itu

hmm look so yummy .. my classmates and I wants to try this food as our project .. hope my professor will like it .. :))
O man, this curry looks so delish. Nasi kandar is definitely my favourite too when I went to Malaysia.
Bee, I think it is better to fry all spices well before we add in the sotong as Curry powder needs to fry well until red oil comes out then you may add in the sotong. Dish up after fried for 1 min and then add in the tomato and fry for awhile and then simmer for 10 mins to remove all the raw smell of the curry powder. Chef Wan taught us to mix the curry powder or chilli powder to a paste and let it stand for 20 mins before cooking so that the powder is fully activate before we fry it. I never fry the seafood if cooking curry, but I will try your way, may be it tastes much better. Thanks for sharing and too many young ladies can't cook until they go to overseas and forced to cook and you're their Life saver !! Keep up the good job.

Bubble Bars
Crumble one of our preservative-free bubble bars under running water for masses of gorgeous, frothy bubbles.
At LUSH we don't just take baths; we appreciate them. We relish them, revel in them and do everything we can to make them enjoyable. We like to fragrance them with essential oils to scent our bodies and put us in a better mood, illuminate them with candlelight and sometimes, even share them. Crumble one of these under the running bath water for a superbly bubbly and stunningly fragrant, luxuriously inviting bath.

I decided to step out of the European theatre today and try my hand at unifying Japan. I chose Toki, and quickly realised a few things:
1) You should declare war day 1. After that, everyone guarantees everyone and alliances make general expansion nearly impossible.
2) Why keep a navy? Until you have the power base to do so, don't bother having ships. Any opponents who have to transport troops to your territory can only ship 1 or 2 men at a time, easily slaughtered as they come.
3) Get merchants in those CoTs fast. The extra income is invaluable, only replaceable if you conquer good territory early.
Anyone else have tips on playing a Daimyo? I'm still stumbling about with it, learning various things about the East Asian Theatre.

Zoe Monofilament Wig by Jon Renauby Jon Renau
Free gift with Jon Renau wig purchase until 3/31.
Until 3/31, buy any Jon Renau wig and get a free wide tooth comb (a $2 value). Excluding Jon Renau Illusions Collection. No coupon code necessary. Until supplies last.
Color Shown on Model:Pic 1-2: 8F16, Pic 3-5: 130/4Zoe Monofilament wig is a great short wig with Jon Renau's signature double monofilament construction and razor cut layers that add natural shape and texture. Enjoy the perfect combination of comfort and style with Jon Renau's newest Mono Top.
Jon Renaus Mono Top Collection has the most innovative cap construction available on the market today. Our exclusive construction utilizes a double monofilament top which feels soft and silky inside the cap. Because this design replaces machine wefted strips with monofilament, it eliminates scratchy, irritating friction against the scalp. We strongly recommend this collection for those with fine, thin hair or those searching for the most realistic look available in alternative hair.
- Virtually Invisible Monofilament Base - Mono Tops give the appearance of actual hair growth straight out of the scalp. Each Mono Top piece features over and under hand-tied hairs to simulate a natural hairline.
- Supremely Natural Hair Movement - Every hair in the monofilament top is individually hand-tied, one strand at a time. Each hair can move and swivel freely, just as hair moves when growing from a follicle. A Mono Top hairpiece will never appear stiff, bulky or artificial.
- Unlimited Styles, Perfect Fit - Mono Top wigs can be styled and parted in any direction, just like natural hair. The Mono Top design also reduces weight and hair density on the top of each piece. With their light weight, smooth fit, and the option to secure adhesive to polyurethane strips inside the front hairline and ear tabs, Mono Top wigs feel perfectly customized.
