&lt;p&gt;HAPPY NEW YEAR VLOG PEOPLE!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Sam takes us through the thrilling process of shopping, making and testing his New Year dips!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;These dipping delights would make great hors d'oeuvres and appetizers for your next party!  Here are Sam's recipes! ...&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;HARRIS FAMILY BLACK-EYED PEA LUCKY NEW YEAR DIP ...&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Saute 1 finely chopped onion in butter or bacon grease
&lt;br /&gt;Add 3 cloves chopped garlic
&lt;br /&gt;Put in food processor with 2 cans drained black eyed peas
&lt;br /&gt;Process until smooth
&lt;br /&gt;Add one 4 oz can of green chilies
&lt;br /&gt;Add one fresh, seeded jalapeno pepper
&lt;br /&gt;Add a 8 oz package of cream cheese
&lt;br /&gt;Process until smooth
&lt;br /&gt;Add hot sauce or chipotle sauce to taste
&lt;br /&gt;Salt and Pepper to taste&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;SAM'S CORN AND BACON 2008 IT ALL BONANZA DIP ...&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;3 corn on the cobb, steamed or boiled
&lt;br /&gt;1 package of bacon, cooked crispy - cut into small pieces
&lt;br /&gt;cut corn off cobb and put in food processor
&lt;br /&gt;Add one clove raw garlic
&lt;br /&gt;process until smooth
&lt;br /&gt;Add one 8 oz package cream cheese
&lt;br /&gt;a splash or two of hot sauce
&lt;br /&gt;Put in bowl and stir in half bacon
&lt;br /&gt;Add salt and pepper to taste
&lt;br /&gt;sprinkle remaining bacon and chopped chives on top.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;REMEMBER!...&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;DO SOMETHING WONDERFUL FOR SOMEONE IN 2008!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Should old acquaintance be forgot,
&lt;br /&gt;and never brought to mind
&lt;br /&gt;Should old acquaintance be forgot,
&lt;br /&gt;and auld lang syne &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;For auld lang syne, my dear, 
&lt;br /&gt;for auld lang syne, 
&lt;br /&gt;we'll take a cup o' kindness yet, 
&lt;br /&gt;for auld lang syne.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;And surely you'll buy your pint cup
&lt;br /&gt;And surely I'll buy mine
&lt;br /&gt;And we'll take a cup o' kindness yet,
&lt;br /&gt;for auld lang syne.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;We two have run about the slopes,
&lt;br /&gt;and picked the daisies fine
&lt;br /&gt;But we've wandered many a weary foot,
&lt;br /&gt;since auld lang syne.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;We two have paddled in the stream,
&lt;br /&gt;from morning sun till dine
&lt;br /&gt;But seas between us broad have roared
&lt;br /&gt;since auld lang syne.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;And there's a hand my trusty friend
&lt;br /&gt;And give us a hand o' thine
&lt;br /&gt;And we'll take a right good-will draught,
&lt;br /&gt;for auld lang syne.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Peace, 
&lt;br /&gt;Sam&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;------------------------------------&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;"Auld Lang Syne" is a song by Robert Burns (1759--1796), although similar poems by Robert Ayton (1570--1638), Allan Ramsay (1686-1757) and James Watson (1711) as well as older folk songs, use the same phrase, and predated Burns. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The song's (Scots) title may be translated into English literally as 'old long since', or more idiomatically 'long long ago', or 'days gone by'. In his retelling of fairy tales in the Scots language, Matthew Fitt uses the phrase "In the days of auld lang syne" as the equivalent of "Once upon a time". In Scots Syne is pronounced like the English word sign &#8212; IPA: [sain] &#8212; not [zain] as many people pronounce it.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Robert Burns forwarded a copy of the original song to the Scots Musical Museum with the remark, "The following song, an old song, of the olden times, and which has never been in print, nor even in manuscript until I took it down from an old man's singing, is enough to recommend any air." At the time it was very fashionable to claim one's own work was "traditional"; therefore one should take Burns' statement with mild skepticism. Some of the lyrics were indeed "collected" rather than composed by the poet and the ballad Old Long Syne printed in 1711 by James Watson shows considerable similarity in the first verse and the chorus to Burns later poem. It is a fair supposition to attribute the rest of the poem to Burns himself.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Beginning in 1929 Band leader Guy Lombardo is often credited with popularizing the use of the song at New Year's celebrations in America, through his annual broadcasts on radio and TV. The song became his trademark, and besides his live broadcasts, he recorded the song more than once, the first in 1939, and at least once later, on September 29, 1947, in a record issued as a single by Decca Records.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;div class="post_content"&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This week on Riz Khan Street Talk, young men in Iran celebrate one of Iran's most ancient traditions: bonfire jumping competitions, which are part of a pre-Islamic New Year festival. Iranians were not deterred to celebrate the festival despite the rise of inflation and are stocking up on items that symbolise the festival, such as goldfish, wheat and garlic.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Also, the first hotel designed exclusively for women has opened in Saudi Arabia so women can pamper themselves away from the eyes of the country's male dominant society.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;And lastly, Salvadorians are celebrating the traditional ceremony that clears their sins. The ceremony highlights the universal struggle of good and evil.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Well while the worst winter weather in decades has eased up, millions continue to suffer the effects of China's recent big freeze. It is Chinese New Year's eve and millions are rushing to get home in time for the New Year. The scale of the annual migration is huge. Chinese families place huge importance on their loved ones returning home from across the country. Al Jazeera's Tony Cheng travelled to Anhui, one of the worst affected provinces, and met some of those who did manage to make the journey.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Dozens of people have died in some of the worst weather to hit China in 50 years.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Heavy snow and freezing temperatures have also forced roads, railways and airports to shut down, causing chaos for the millions of people preparing for the lunar New Year holiday.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

Cheers!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
