Field Trip to Hat Yai Songkla Part 2
Baru ada mood nak update blog and this is the second part of the field trip to Hat Yai Songkla dedicated to Teh and Sunah...
Just post pictures taken at the Klong Hae Floating Market...if I am not mistaken this market only operates on Sundays. Ada info berkaitan dengan penjualan makanan di sini tapi sudah tak ingatlah...kalau tak silap semua jenis makanan ini dijual tidak melebihi RM3.00 duit kita.
All sort of goodies sold here fresh from the boats...
Caught my attention ATMs there are placed outside banks on the stairs and also along the pavements, no tight security whatever ....apa gamaknya yang akan berlaku kalaulah ATM di negara kita di letak di tempat public macam di Hat Yai ni!

Bonding time with Cucu
Its been a while ....a few days in KB and a lot of days in KL. Been this way since early April but its worth it babysitting my only cucu and what else can a granny do just as she has done away with office life for good....help her kid look after her kid...
Honestly I cannot find the right time to update this blog anymore because at the same time someone else has the same idea and would just push away my hands from the keyboard and pound it the way he likes it ...hahaha. Ideas on what to write vanishes when this 19 month old decided his ideas is more worth following or else little shrieks will pierce the atmosphere and its back to ABC and nursery rhymes for this old timer...

Makanan Dok Jupo di KB
Gapo ni? This question popped out of my mouth when a plate of this greenish squeamish look-alike alien eggs (it looked alien to me) was placed in front of me at an open air restaurant somewhere near the waterfront of Kota Kinabalu. Later back at home while watching an episode of Island Feast with Peter Kuruvita and he was using exactly this alien eggs..oh now I know it is Sea Grapes, that's what Peter said...it can be found along the shores of islands. The taste is of course salty.
Another new one for me...fried bananas with cheese on top...sedap wohhh!
Still another new dish...siput entah nama apa. This one eaten at the famous Gayang Seafood Restaurant , memang tak ada di KB!
Lokan besar-besar di Saluk..
Dibakar atas api...
Tadaa...ini dia lokan bakar
Puding kelapa dalam buah nyior...cedok-cedok khabar-khabar habis! Yang ni blana di KB but not inside buah nyior lah...
That's it some of the rarely consumed food while vacationing in Sabah.
meanwhile ....where is the plane, the plane...ingatkan cerita Fantasy Island!

No Mount Kinabalu...
The main purpose of choosing Sabah as our once in a blue moon family vacation is to view the spectacular majestic Gunung Kinabalu (there are other more famous majestic mountains elsewhere but we don't have the luxury to go elsewhere) and of course to sample the equally famous much talk-about seafood of Sabah....
but alas... this is the view that greeted us on a wet early morning at Mount Kinabalu Heritage Resort & Spa in Kundasang, this hotel most possibly not a resort I presumed got lousy reviews from past guests.
and what to expect when our journey to Kundasang was in this kind of weather?????
We checked-in in the late afternoon at the hotel it was still drizzling and to my horror we have to climb flights of steps amid tall pine trees to reach the chalet. Beg-beg kena angkut sendiri naik ke atas padanlah hotel ni dapat lousy reviews from past guests such as one of the reviews below;
We booked a chalet and it was terrible. Very expensive but you don't get anything for the money. There was no cabinet or shelf in the room. No space to put your clothes. On top of that, there is no hot water at all. Room was very run down and smelly. Chalets are very noisy. Staff is not friendly or helpful.
Even the food and drinks are very expensive.
The only good thing is to be out in the nature and the nice view.
Even the food and drinks are very expensive.
The only good thing is to be out in the nature and the nice view.
Stayed September 2013, travelled as a couple
To reach the chalets we have to cross this swaying hanging bridge first before climbing the stairs.
The tall pine trees with the mist surrounding them made me recall the Twilight Saga movie...can just imagine the vampires fleeting among these pine trees.
The look-out balcony infront of the chalets...nothing interesting to view except for the foggy view
We stayed in two chalets and I was given the government rate at RM160.00 per chalet (kita kerja gomen satu masa dulu, baru saja pencen), anyway it was not the peak season. Menginap one night saja di sini, the hot shower was not working in the chalet I stayed and the water was ice cold! Mula-mula masuk bilik tu I noticed there was a kind of animal droppings on the floor below the window...apa kah! Nak telefon ke reception di bawah nun sana there is no telephone provided in the chalets, mujurnya masa check-in kita ambil extra bedding (kena caj lagi at RM70.00 per mattress) so when the staff came bearing the mattress complete with pillows and blankets we asked her to remove the droppings. Her reaction was like...oh tak ada apa itu hanya kepompong rama-rama. She came back later with a broom and dustpan and asked us to sweep it away....well so much for the hospitality haha...Memang sebijik macam review di atas...the chalets smelled musty and there's a lizard in the bathroom and I am so anti-lizards!!! Maintenance chalet di sini memang ke laut....
Beg-beg angkut sendiri naik dan turun tangga, chalet kami di paling atas sekali, kononnya tu get the best view of Mt. Kinabalu.
Sarapan sebelum tinggalkan resort ini, hendak sarapan di luar tak tau di mana kedai makan yang sesuai so isi perut di sini sajalah walaupun agak mahal.
The hotel rooms that got lousy reviews/complains.."funky smell, shower that doesnt quite work. dim lighting in the bathroom, the list goes on. One of the crappiest hotels I've ever stayed in. Surprised there wasn't any insects crawling around the room though! The room was massive however, but aged and just overall in dispair.Stayed June 2012, travelled with family"
The management should buck up and upgrade the facilities since the location is already superb with cool refreshing mountain air.
A snapshot of the cloudy mountains
On the way back to Kota Kinabalu we made several stops...
The natural fish spa and the fishes here are big. A lot of giggling from those in the water...memang geli sebab ikan-ikan tu slippery.
Cucu taking a dip too..
Kalu oghe Kelate kato...beghiok ikae ssini termasuk ado ikae keli saeko, mari manolah ikae keli tuh.
Bersih dan tenang Sungei Moroli
Singgah di Sabah Tea Garden sekejap
Not much going on here and I bought a book at the souvenir shop 'Land Below The Wind" by Agnes Newton Keith. Her husband H.G. Keith was the Conservator of Forests and Director of Agriculture of North Borneo in the 1930s and her book depicted her Borneo experience and impressions of that time. Makes good reading for me on the flight back.
It started to rain again when we reached Mount Kinabalu National Park. The road going uphill to reach Timpohon Gate reminds me of the road leading to Boh Plantation in Sg. Palas.
Walking in the rain...

Rumah Terbalik di Tamparuli, Desa Cattle Farm
A run through with pictures to places we go on the third day of our trip to Kota Kinabalu...
Tidak sahkan kalau tak singgah di Rumah Terbalik di Batu 21, Kampung Telibong, Jalan Tamparuli-Ranau.
Ok we were there at Rumah Terbalik...boleh google baca blog lain nak tahu pasal rumah upside down ni. Nothing spectacular to me ie...semua barang-barang dalam rumah tu diterbalikkan itu saja..gambar tidak benarkan diambil dalam rumah tu nanti kena denda RM100.00 dan gambar-gambar dalam kamera or handphone di 'delete'...well so much for that.
Our journey continue to another famous site with a famous song...Jambatan Tamparuli
The famous hanging Tamparuli Bridge...we have to cross the one-way traffic bridge below with swift running river below to reach the other side , I think this bridge will be under water if it floods.
That's us on Tamparuli Bridge...takut nak jalan ke tengah-tengah, ada papan yang reput, dengan body extra large semua ni memang tidak disyorkan berjalan sampai ke seberang sana hehe..
Tengok keadaan jambatan walaupun di bawah papan itu ada dawai besi but no way jose I'm going to cross it all the way, nama lagi jambatan gantung dan dengan air sungai yang mengalir deras di bawah tu huhu...dasar penakut that's me!
Our next stop...Desa Cattle (Sabah) Sdn Bhd...jalan masuk ke tempat ini amat tidak selesa, jonkang jongkit atas van..
The rain started on the way to this place...rugi yang amat sangat sebab ramai orang kata when it is sunny the place is like when you are in New Zealand...sedey sedey...
The view that we get to see on a rainy day...cian sungguh!
No cows were grazing on the wet field that day as they were all here, mungkin tunggu giliran nak perah susu ke hapa...
ini first time ke Ahmad Daiyan tengok cow in the flesh???
boleh tengok aktiviti perah susu pun jadiklah...
dan makan aiskrim vanilla yang lemak lagi berkrim...its not sweet though
a wet day at the Cattle Farm...

The mighty Lamborghini Aventador comes with no shortage of power, but that doesn't mean that it's still not worthy to be treated to a little more juice.
That's where noted Lamborghini tuner, Underground Racing, comes into the picture. The Charlotte-based tuning firm has made a living modding one Lamborghini super car after another so when they were given a chance to send the Aventador to the dyno, they wasted little time giving it enough added juice to compete with the Bugatti Veyron .
For their first tuning offering for the Aventador, Underground Racing rebuilt the Italian super car's 6.5-liter V12 engine and strengthened the gearbox unit, and doing so while keeping the supercar's all-wheel drive system. All told, they were able to almost double the Aventador's output to 1,200 horsepower, a staggering improvement from it's already insane 700-horsepower standard output.
No official times have been announced, but according to Underground Racing, their newly-modded, 1,200-horsepower Aventador is capable of hitting 0-60 mph in just 2.2 seconds, three-tenths of a second faster than what the Bugatti Veyron Super Sport can accomplish.
But the truly important piece of news here that some folks might overlook is that this is one of the first modded Aventadors to pass through Underground Racing's tuning wizardry. Knowing these guys, we can expect something even more powerful down the road.

Sci-Fi magazine to be beamed into space
Future Publishing is hoping to expand the readership of its science fiction and fantasy magazine, SFX, by beaming the title into outer space. It will launch with its June issue on May 7.
The Bath-based publisher has signed what it describes as "a pioneering intergalactic distribution deal" with SentForever, a gift company that specialises in beaming messages into space as radio waves.
A digital version every edition of the magazine will now be sent to Goonhilly satellite station in Cornwall and fired into space from a satellite dish, at 671 million miles per hour. The radio waves will continue to travel through the stars for eternity. It is thought each edition will take around five years to reach the nearest star to the earth.
Future Publishing says that the offer of a partnership between the Sci-Fi title and SentForever was "a perfect fit, which was too good to pass up".
SFX hopes the stunt will help it gain ground over rivals SciFiNow, published by Imagine Publishing, and Blackfish Publishing-onwed title Death Ray. SFX has also signed up as a sponsor for the seventh London International Festival of Science Fiction and Fantastic Film later this month.

^ This. And not just at 60. I've just started a baby tankadin and while lower level instances don't require the same degree of co-ordination as later ones, I have been amazed at the number of times a fight starts with the dps pulling before I've even had a chance to make contact with the mob. Really frustrating was the warrior who kept 'intervening' just after I made a pull, stunning the mob and then forcing me to run to it rather then letting it come to me.

I wanted to try this but hate cooked cabbage, so I just mixed the raw shredded cabbage with the apple (which I also shredded, and I used Granny Smith) plus some scallions (in place of the onion), omitting the water, vinegar, caraway seeds, salt & parsley. I made the dressing as directed (other than adding some pickled jalapeno for kick) and slathered half on the toasts and tossed the remaining with the slaw. Delicious! I know I changed a lot, but the dressing is amazing as is and makes the dish, in my opinion.

IBM opened the doors to its Almaden Research Center this week to show what its scientists are working on, including some advanced technologies for storage and data analysis.
Located at the southern tip of Silicon Valley, Almaden claims to be the birthplace of the distributed relational database and the first data mining algorithms. Fiddling with bits and bytes to improve how they're stored and analyzed continues to be a focus, although the labs also work on areas like nanotechnology, spin physics, and human-computer interaction.
[ Managing backup infrastructure right is not so simple. InfoWorld's expert contributors show you how to get it right in this "Backup Infrastructure Deep Dive" PDF guide. ]
The projects on show this week included Panache, a file system for use across wide area networks; Sage, a tool for moving data to different storage tiers automatically; and Cobra, which helps companies figure out what people are saying about them in online forums.
Panache is a clustered file system that provides applications with high-speed access to a large, central pool of data even if the applications are far away, in data centers in different parts of the country or on different continents, for example.
"Customers are asking us to give them a way, when data is created at one site, to make it available in other geographically distributed locations, so that users at those locations can access the data as if it were local," said Bruce Hillsberg, director of the Storage Systems research group.
The file system uses advanced caching techniques to make sure the data at each location is kept consistent. It has push and pull characteristics that replicate changes efficiently across multiple nodes in a wide area network, so that conflicts don't arise when changes are made to the data caches at individual nodes.
IBM says it could have several uses. Engineers working on a project in different countries can access the same set of data and make changes to it locally without worrying about the cached versions getting out of synch.
It could also reduce the time it takes to replicate virtual machines between data centers, researchers here said. Applications running inside a virtual machine access data from a virtual LUN, typically stored as a file in the data center. When a new virtual machine is configured or restarted from a failure, the OS image and its virtual LUN have to be transferred between sites, causing delays before the application is ready for use.
Panache can maintain a cache of the OS and its virtual LUN at the remote site, so it's there when needed. IBM researchers say this would greatly reduce the time and complexity of configuring new virtual machines and moving them across a wide area network. It could also help companies to reduce data center costs. Instead of hosting 20,000 virtual machines in one large data center, the faster migration capabilities would provide the option of hosting the VMs across 20 smaller data centers.

WASHINGTON — The Food and Drug Administration says it has uncovered potential safety problems at 30 specialty pharmacies that were inspected following a recent outbreak of meningitis caused by contaminated drugs.
The agency said its inspectors targeted 31 compounding pharmacies that produce sterile drugs, which must be prepared under highly sanitary conditions. The FDA said Thursday it issued inspection reports to all but one of the pharmacies citing unsanitary conditions and quality control problems, including: rust and mold in supposedly sterile rooms, inadequate ventilation, and employees wearing nonsterile lab coats.

Western Union Summit: Addressing Education Needs and Creating New Business Opportunities
Education has the power to improve both individual and community well-being, helping regions become more competitive economically, reduce poverty, and support democratic activities. Yet even though the UN has identified universal primary education as one of the eight Millennium Development Goals, approximately 61 million school-age children are not enrolled. An additional 71 million are not enrolled in secondary school.
Western Union has 510,000 agent locations in 200 countries and territories, reaching tens of millions of customers worldwide. Many are un-/under-banked and live in the communities where education is a particular challenge. Western Union asked BSR to help design and facilitate a process that would allow the company to engage with external experts to identify solutions for educational needs that also could potentially grow its business.

Levi Strauss & Company: Improving Worker Well-Being in the Workplace and Community
Too often, supply chain compliance programs fall short of ensuring that worksite-based improvements meaningfully improve workers' lives. Top-down requirements to raise wages, reduce overtime, or reduce chemical exposure, for example, cannot sufficiently address the myriad challenges workers face to raise their standard of living, improve their health, or enhance their access to professional-development opportunities.
As a leader in supply chain innovation that is committed to improving workers' well-being, Levi Strauss & Co. (LS&CO) saw an opportunity to address this challenge. In early 2011, the company committed to creating a new strategy for its existing supply chain labor program, and enlisted BSR to help determine how the company could improve workers' lives beyond the factory walls.

CHESTER, England, November 7, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --
- Nearly a quarter (23 per cent) of Brits will use savings, up 15 per cent from 2011
- 38 per cent will cover the cost with disposable income
- One in ten will use credit or store cards to pay for Christmas this year
The Christmas countdown is on and with less than eight weeks to go, Britain's number one comparison site MoneySupermarket.com reveals over a third of Christmas spenders plan to dip into savings to meet the cost, while another third will use the cash they have available to fund the festivities.
With a maximum of two more pay days until Christmas, a recent MoneySupermarket poll* of almost 3,000 site users reveals only 38 per cent will fund Christmas using disposable income while a further 23 per cent will use their savings; up by 15 per cent from 2011**. A quarter (24 per cent) will use an existing savings account to fund their festivities, while one in ten (10 per cent) will use a savings scheme in which they've saved up throughout the year to fund Christmas.
Plastic is also on the list as a way to pay for Christmas, with one in ten people (10 per cent) putting festive spending on a credit or store card, and a small number (3 per cent) who expect to use their overdraft to meet costs over the festive period. However, this is a slight fall from this time last year.
Kevin Mountford, head of banking at MoneySupermarket commented: "With December creeping around the corner, many people may be dreading meeting the cost of Christmas presents and all the trimmings. We've experienced a costly year including price hikes on SVR's for many mortgage borrowers combined with the recent energy price rises. It comes as no surprise that a quarter of those polled plan to break into their personal savings pot to get through the Christmas season. Yule tide can be an expensive time and it's easy to get swept up in the festivities and spirit of spending. There's still plenty of time ahead to make a budget and stick to it, to avoid spending more than planned.
"For those who haven't done so already, it's not too late to start saving for Christmas this year- just setting aside twenty pounds each week over the next few weeks could save you from skating on thin financial ice and help prevent sole reliance on your December salary to pay for everything. Savers should check the rate on savings accounts and look to switch to the most competitive deal in order to fuel savings returns. Chelsea Building Society currently offers the market leading savings account, its e-Saver Reward pays 2.60 per cent.
"Those using plastic to cover the cost of Christmas could look at using a cashback credit card to earn money on spending- the cashback gained from spending throughout the year could be put towards next Christmas' funds and is a much better alternative to high interest rate store cards as they offer a more competitive interest rate and still reward for spending. The American Express Platinum Cashback Card for example offers 5% cashback on your first £2,500 spend within the first three months. You will then earn 1.25% cashback on all other spend. Alternatively, a zero per cent interest on purchases card such as the Tesco Clubcard Credit Card offering 16 months interest free on purchases could be another way to manage your costs, providing you spend within your means and pay off the balance as soon as possible.
"Responsible budgeting and spending really is a must this Christmas, to avoid a costly financial hangover that runs into January. The last thing anyone wants is to be paying off the cost of Christmas past next year. By planning ahead, reviewing your finances and shopping around using a comparison site such as MoneySupermarket.com, you can ensure you find the best product to suit your needs."

Seared Tuna Steaks with Caper Butter
The tuna can also be cooked on the grill, but make sure it's very hot, so that the outside of the tuna is seared before the inside is cooked through.
Get MoreSubscribe to Martha Stewart Living
- 4 fresh tuna steaks, each about 8 ounces and 3/4 inch thick
- Extra-virgin olive oil, to coat tuna
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, room temperature
- 2 tablespoons capers, rinsed and dried
- 1 tablespoon finely diced red and/or yellow pepper
- 1 large bunch fresh arugula
Step 1
Rub tuna with olive oil, salt, and plenty of pepper. Set aside to marinate for at least 20 minutes.
Step 2
In a small bowl, combine butter, capers, and diced peppers. Turn mixture onto a square of parchment or wax paper, and roll into a log about 1/2-inch in diameter. Refrigerate until firm, about 30 minutes.
Step 3
Heat an iron skillet slowly over low heat until very hot (a few drops of water splashed in the pan should evaporate almost immediately). Arrange tuna in skillet, and cook for about 5 minutes on each side. It should be well browned and crisp on the outside and rare to medium on the inside.
Step 4
Arrange arugula on plates or platter. Place tuna on top with a slice of caper butter on each steak. Serve immediately.

So I'm in need of some help. A friend of mine has always wanted to have some good cognac. Not the VS they sell at most stores, but a more refined bottle. An XO to be sure. So it's finally come time that I have to get him a gift and I figured that a good cognac and some snifters are in order. Now I'm no expert but I've done some research into the different qualities and labels (a week ago I had no idea what the hell VS, VSOP and XO meant), but I still need some advice on what to get, what to avoid... so pretty much personal preference.
Tomorrow I'm heading to a top shelf liquor store to talk to someone about it, but I figured I'd throw it out there and hope that someone drinks the stuff.
Right now I'm considering a Remy Martin XO:
Beautiful deep amber-copper color. Rich baked pear, orange marmalade, and spice aromas. A supple entry leads to a round, dryish medium body of dried fruits, dusty brown spices, and light toffee flavors. Finishes with pleasant anise and nuts flavors amid the wood spices and minerals. A balanced, elegant style. -http://www.tastings.com/scout_spirits.lasso?id=180604
This is the Ch�teau de Montifaud- Heritage Louis Vallet. Far too expensive, but this just sounds amazing.
Rich, sweet aromas of toffee, smoky brown spices, cedar, and sandalwood. A lush entry leads to an intensely rich fruity full-bodied palate with vibrant dried fruits, toffee, and lavish brown spices. Finishes with long spicy, raisin, and dark caramel, and pepper flavors. A rich super-smooth Cognac with deep flavor and Christmas cake spiciness. -http://www.thefiftybest.com/cognac/best_cognac03.htm
I figure that even if I can't get help, this thread can become a cognac opinion/discussion thread. Or at least a repository of Ladies Man quotes. Either one is worthwhile. If it's both, this thread could become epic.
"Well, I can tell by the empty bottle of Courvoisier that it is time to say goodnight. So, uh, look out, ladies, 'cause here comes Leon Phelps, The Ladies Man!"

Oct 2 2013: GMOs have been proven to rapidly increase tumor growth.
I won't blame Monsanto because they seem untouchable due to their "political contributions".
So now I say we should attack the people who allow corporations like this to operate. The fact is we know GMOs cause cancer in organic life. We know GMOs help big business save money (like they don't have enough already). We know that simply asking will not work. I know that labeling poison is not the solution. Only people who are sick in the mind think this is ok. It just so happens that these people are the ones that "represent" the majority of us. They make choices based on profit margins that never have and never will benefit the thousand upon thousands of people they employ. Their most valuable resource is US. If they don't have us, they have nothing. We can blame people to try and achieve change, we can change our lifestyles to create change or we can cut off the leeches that do ungodly things to fellow beings. It is our choice and however we choose to go about changing the future will be our legacy. Set a great and powerful example for your children. Teach them something they will teach their children and one day they will live in the perfect world that we all dreamed about. All they will know is living, laughing, and loving. :D Have a good day everyone.

RINEYVILLE, KY (WAVE) - A former
patient of an Elizabethtown cancer clinic is coming forward to share her
experience. Elizabethtown Hematology
Oncology settled an overpayment claim June 3 with the federal government for
$3.7 million.
Amber Pike is not a
medical doctor so she can't say for sure the reasons behind her lengthy chemo
infusions, but she does know that when she got a second diagnosis, EHO
ultimately was not the place she chose to go and she wants others to know why.
[PREVIOUS STORY: Elizabethtown clinic settles claims it over billed government for cancer care]
Just after a smiling
school picture was taken, Pike started treatments at Elizabethtown
Hematology Oncology for Stage 3 Hodgkins Lymphoma.
"I was a patient
there in 92, 93, 94. I started when I was 14 years old," she said.
As a teenager, she was
concerned about losing her hair. Losing time with her friends, though, was also
on her mind.
"I would go into the
office at noon and I would be there at their office until 7 or 8 o'clock
sometimes, well after the office doors had closed and everybody had gone home
for the night," she said.
For close to two years,
EHO battled back Pike's cancer. In what
may seem an unfair twist of fate, cancer came back into her life 16 years
later, when she was diagnosed with breast cancer.
"I went back to
E-town Hematology and Oncology because I had been their patient formerly,"
she said.
The treatment plan she was
given, she says, was 18 months of chemo and radiation. Amber sought a second and third opinion.
"Both James (Graham)
Brown and Norton gave me identical treatment plans as the other," she
said. "They both suggested that I needed about six months worth of chemo
and about six weeks of radiation."
She ultimately chose the Norton Cancer Institute, even though it meant a
longer drive from her home.
Amber has seen the claims
against EHO that it lengthened chemo infusion times to collect more money from
Medicare and Medicaid, among other government programs. She can't say if that has anything to do with
her experience. What she does know is
that she learned a valuable lesson that she wants to share with everyone.
"Everybody is
responsible for their own healthcare," she said. "Doctors treat you, but you make the decisions as to where you need to go and what best fits into
your treatment plan, your own particular situation."
It's important to note that EHO maintains it did nothing
wrong and there was never any allegation of patient harm or injury. An attorney for the clinic said via email
that he was prevented from addressing Amber's specific claims because of
federal privacy laws. He added illnesses,
circumstances and treatments vary and that techniques for treating cancer
have advanced in the last decades and even the last few years.

"Your guild may do things differently, but we typically dispel the pair of magical debuffs that the bosses will toss out periodically. Your DPS players can switch targets based on their debuffs to a particular boss, but I just use Cleanse to get rid of them immediately. Ask your raid leader for guidance."
The DPS doesn't have to switch targets. "Heart of Ice" and "Burning Blood" are debuffs in phase 1 that give buffs to those they touch.
Since you have your melee on fire and ranged on ice, have the ranged that gets the ice debuff run to melee before being cleansed and vice versa to the burning blood on melee.

Three people were killed and another injured when gunmen opened fire at a teashop in Ahsanabad area.
Final results of Afghanistan's election are due to be issued Sunday amid claims that presidential rivals have struck a power-sharing deal
Israeli forces abducted six Palestinians, incl an elderly, from Hebron & Bethlehem districts of occupied West Bank.
Under heavy Israeli army protection, Israeli settlers entered Balata refugee camp with aim of praying at Joseph's tomb.
After hammering Sri Lanka 14-0 in first game, Pakistan's hockey team outclassed Chinese eleven by 2-0 on Sunday.
Israel killed 570 and injured 3,120 children during the nearly month-long offensive on Gaza. The number of elderly killed was 95 and 368 were injured. Total number of Palestinians killed was 2,050 and 10,330 were injured, these figures are based on information provided by the Palestinian Ministry of Health as of August 21.
Birmingham Ladywood MP has been branded "shameful", "extremely irresponsible" and accused of "stirring up tensions" and behaving in a inappropriately by leaders of Britain's Jewish communities for taking part in a protest against a supermarket stocking goods from illegal Israeli settlements in Palestinian Occupied Territories.
There is something particularly pernicious about the latest Israeli massacres in Gaza. The indiscriminate slaughter of Palestinian men, women, children and babies is as inhumane as in the two previous mass killings and atrocities. Only this time it was carried out under a renewed vigour and defiance of all international norms and a barrage of propaganda that much of the media has seemed keen to lap up to try to justify the unjustifiable, the blatant immorality of the intransigent aggressor devouring the victims as mere fodder.
It would appear to be no coincidence that the latest wave of financial sanctions targeted against Muslim charities coincides with Israel's renewed killings of Palestinians in Gaza. Several Islamic organisations in Britain have suddenly found that their bank accounts have been closed without any explanation by HSBC including Ummah Welfare Trust, Finsbury Park Mosque and The Cordoba Foundation.
Be it Marlon Brando's activism in the US civil right movement in the 60s, Sean Penn's defiant political pilgrimages to Castro's Cuba or more recently George Clooney's support for the people in Darfur and Ukraine. It seems that no political world issue is taboo in LaLa land - no issue that is except the plight of the Palestinians.
Leaked internal documents released earlier this month has revealed UK-German surveillance company, Gamma Group International, has sold spy software to Bahrain during the regime's crackdown on pro-democracy activists.
The fall of Mosul in Iraq on June 10 to the extremist group Islamic State of Iraq and Sham [ISIS] may have shocked the world but it was no surprise to many analysts who had been monitoring the increasing sophistication of the group in conducting several operations across wide territory. Nor was it a surprise to the US, with intelligence and defence officials warning for over a year that ISIS was planning to take over large parts of Iraq.
Commemorating the centenary of the start of the First World War was, of course, necessary. Four years of conflict, the like of which had never been seen before, resulted in 37 million dead. It wasn't, unfortunately, The War to End All Wars and it goes without saying that as we mourn those who died for their king and country, entire regions continue to be ravaged by conflict.

Chapter 10: Happily Ever, Almost Never0 Reviews
DNO. This one is so sad, and sweet.
"Hey." He said softly lightly shaking my shoulder.
"What? ...I don't want mayonnaise... Dallas?" I said sitting up. Light from the window was shining in, it was getting dark... you know winter and all.
"You comin'?" he asked me.
Damn he looked good in the dim light... NO, BAD! "To what? The rumble? No." I catch on pretty quick.
"I can't handle that right now, I'm to tired and I'm still sore from the fire."
"Well, I've got an hour... wanna do something?"
"Like what?"
"Make out." His arm snaked around me and he was pulling me tighter to him.
"No, Dallas, just no."
He was still pulling me in to him. "Dallas... I said no!" I started trying to wiggle from his grip.
"Dally! I said no!"
He pulled me really close and he was trying to kiss me.
"Dally... I SAID NO!" I slapped his shoulders hard.
He let go and looked at me. He was standing, and he was much taller than me when I was sitting in a bed.
"What?" He asked, his eyes turned fiery. They scared me.
"I said no... I mean it... just no... not now..." he was really scaring me.
"Whatever," he just left. I laid down and cried.
Margaret came in a few seconds later. "You love that boy."
I had never thought about it before. Thinking about it, I noticed that I had been thinking about how good he looked, and when I was so sad about blowing him off when he was comforting me a couple days ago.
"Then you go after him." She said.
"But I'm in the hospital, I can't just go!" I cried, she must have been crazy.
"Doctor has just released you. I am here to tell news to you. Go and find your love." She was very understanding about things.
"Thank you Margaret, for everything." I left the room at a sprint, I had to find Dallas, I did love him, and I know that now.
I was searching for hours. It was long after the rumble. I didn't know where I was going. I think I was near the park were Johnny had killed the Soc. I was. I sat on the swings and thought about everything that Dallas has done to me since I got back.
Yelling at me, decking me, laughing with me, yelling at me again, comforting me, ignoring me (though I set this on myself, it's not his fault here), burning his arm trying to save me, trying to make out with me (not exactly the best approach to this, but that's beside the point), and now I realise that, I love him, and I need to find out if he loves me back.
I thought, if he hadn't been so bold back at the hospital, I would have kissed him, I really would have. But anyway, that was before, now I can't find him, and he probably hates me now.
I cried. I sat there and cried about my lost chance, about Dallas, and what I think, in his strangely bold way, he was trying to tell me. I was sure he liked me... at least a little bit anyway.
I suddenly saw someone running toward me.
I looked closer. It was Dally!
Then I saw two cop cars pulling in behind him. Two cops jumped out and had guns drawn. I started running towards Dally.
He turned to them drew his empty heater I saw at the Dairy Queen yesterday. He yelled at them "You'll never take me alive!"
I saw the cops were about to shoot him. My body said run away, my mind said stay and protect him. For the first time ever, my mind won.
I ran at Dally, grabbed him by the collar and pulled him to my right. As I pulled a gun fired. A split second later I felt the hot lead enter my side. I screamed and held my side.
Dallas jumped up again. He pointed his gun at one of the cops; I knew they didn't know it wasn't loaded. They thought it was full.
I did a move that sensei told me never to use. I sweeped him. I hooked my right foot around his leg and pulled. He fell to the ground as another gunshot rang out. I staggered as it entered my chest.
Dally tried one more time. He jumped up and cocked the gun. The cops thought he was going to shoot. They each fired a round as I kicked him in the back, he fell and the bullets entered my chest and leg.
I fell to the ground yelling, "His gun isn't loaded, don't shoot, don't shoot... DON'T SHOOT!"
They started radioing to each other, probably getting an ambulance.
I felt myself getting weak. Dally crawled over to me and picked me up. He held me so he could see my face.
"Why the hell do you always try to help people, it just gets you here..." he sobbed once, "why?"
"Because..." I gasped, "because some things... in life... are worth it."
He looked down at me, I felt tired. He sobbed again.
Then as I felt myself going into a deep sleep, one I may never return from, he held me high, leaned over and, very gently, very lovingly, kissed me.
