Hello I have been playing olaf for about a week or two now, and i have been setting up his rune page. At the moment i have flag health quints, Magic Resist glyphs, and Armor Penetration reds, but im tied up between weather i should get dodge seals, or flat health seals. what do you guys think?
Senior Member
Obviously dodge if you have the ip. You should be building warmogs anyway so you have more than enough hp. Dodge and resists will be better. Also, I would run either armour penetration or movespeed quints(huge advantage early game when you get about 398movespeed with boots 1 alone for harrassment and allows you to delay your 2nd tier boots for warmogs/wriggles...etc.) on olaf if I were you.

The Kiahuna Golf Course on Kauai's South Shore is on the market for $13.75 million, according to Paul Kyno of Sleeping Giant Sotheby's International Realty, which is marketing the course.
The sale also includes the golf pro shop, cart barn, driving range and restaurant totaling about 144 acres.
The 18-hole golf course at 2545 Kiahuna Plantation Drive in Koloa, is owned by four individuals, with three of them over the age of 85, Kyno told PBN.
"They feel it's time to sell," he said.
The group has owned the 6,787-yard, Robert Trent Jones Jr. designed Kiahuna Golf Course since 2005 and thus far the sale is getting interest from Korean, Chinese, Japanese and even local entities, Kyno said.

Jahmaul Dec 21, 2010, 12:12 PM
As far as I know as an opinion - I rather bump her instead of bumping any other inferior female judged by either 2% of her body & incomparable to this one....whatever. I like the girl, yet I'll damn sure will pretend to play a difficult game [flyness, etc.] for her attraction. That's how you keep them focused on you. lol
Nanab Feb 18, 2011, 1:15 AM
Right. Let me tell you something: I like fat chicks. And this chick? She isn't fat. She has the potential to be, and she's softer than your scrawny Katy Perry and whatnot, but she's not fat. You can keep her if you want.
oh yeah Apr 01, 2011, 7:45 AM
I'd give that muffin some butter. Or some baking type product where butter is needed.

Charles Grodin (born April 21, 1935) is an American actor, comedian, author, and former cable talk show host.
Grodin began his acting career in the 1960s appearing in TV serials including The Virginian. He had a small part as an obstetrician in Roman Polanski's Rosemary's Baby in 1968. In the 1970s he moved into film acting, including playing the lead in The Heartbreak Kid (1972) and supporting roles in Catch-22 (1970) and Heaven Can Wait (1978). He became a familiar face as a supporting actor in many Hollywood comedies of the era, including King Kong (1976), Real Life (1979), Seems Like Old Times (1980), The Great Muppet Caper (1981), The Woman in Red (1984), The Lonely Guy (1984), Ishtar (1987), The Couch Trip (1988), Taking Care of Business (1990), and Dave (1993). He is perhaps best known for his iconic appearances on The Tonight Show and The Late Show, for co-starring alongside Robert DeNiro in the classic action comedy Midnight Run (1988), and for his role as George Newton in the 1990s John Hughes comedy franchise Beethoven.
Grodin has won several acting awards, including American Comedy Award for Funniest Supporting Actor in a Motion Picture for 1993's Dave, Best Actor at the 1988 Valladolid International Film Festival (for Midnight Run). He was nominated for Golden Globe Award for Best Actor – Motion Picture Musical or Comedy for The Heartbreak Kid in 1972. He also shared a 1978 Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Writing for a Variety, Music or Comedy Program for his work on The Paul Simon Special.
In the mid-1990s, Grodin retired from acting to become a talk show host on CNBC and in 2000 a political commentator for 60 Minutes II. He has written several autobiographical and acting related works, including 1990's It Would Be So Nice If You Weren't Here: My Journey Through Show Business and 1994's We're Ready for You, Mr. Grodin. However, he has recently returned to his acting career.
Grodin was born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, to Orthodox Jewish parents,[1][2] Lena (née Singer), who worked as an assistant in the family's store and was a volunteer for disabled veterans, and Theodore I. Grodin, who sold wholesale supplies.[3] His maternal grandfather was an immigrant from Russia, who came from a long line of rabbis and moved to Pittsburgh at the turn of the 20th century. Grodin has an older brother, Jack.[4]
Grodin attended the University of Miami but left without graduating to pursue acting.[5]
Grodin's film debut was an uncredited bit part in Disney's 1954 film 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea.[citation needed] A student of Lee Strasberg and Uta Hagen, he made his Broadway debut in a production of Tchin-Tchin, opposite Anthony Quinn.[6] In 1965, he became an assistant to director Gene Saks and appeared on several television series including The Virginian.[citation needed]
Grodin had a small part playing an obstetrician in the 1968 horror film, Rosemary's Baby. In 1964, he played Matt Stevens on the ABC soap opera the Young Marrieds.[7] During the late 1960s, he also co-wrote and directed Hooray! It's a Glorious Day...and All That, a Broadway play, and directed Lovers and Other Strangers and Thieves, also on Broadway.[8] He also directed Simon and Garfunkel's television special Songs of America in 1969.
After a supporting role in the 1970 comedy film Catch-22, Grodin gained recognition as a comedy actor when he played the lead role in the 1972 film The Heartbreak Kid. Grodin subsequently appeared in several 1970s films, including 11 Harrowhouse in 1974, the 1976 version of King Kong and the hit 1978 comedy Heaven Can Wait. During this period, he also frequently appeared on Broadway and was involved in producing several plays.
In 1981, he landed in a role in The Great Muppet Caper playing Nicky Holiday, a jewel thief who falls in love with Miss Piggy. He also appeared that same year opposite Lily Tomlin in The Incredible Shrinking Woman. His 1980s roles included Neil Simon's Seems Like Old Times (opposite Chevy Chase and Goldie Hawn) and 1988's well-reviewed comedy Midnight Run, a buddy movie co-starring Robert De Niro. Grodin also appeared in the 1986 CBS mini-series sendup Fresno, playing the evil son of a raisin matriarch (Carol Burnett).
His Hollywood film roles of the 1980s usually saw him cast as uptight, bland and world-weary white collar professionals, such as a psychiatrist having a nervous breakdown (The Couch Trip), a health conscious accountant (Midnight Run), an ineffectual advertising executive (Taking Care of Business), and a lonely, socially awkward nerd (The Lonely Guy). He was cast against this type as a scheming CIA agent in Ishtar.
Commenting on his work with regard to Ishtar, Hal Hinson in the Washington Post observed: "Grodin has a one-of-a-kind quality on the screen, a sort of inspired spinelessness. And with his cat-burglar rhythms – he seems to play all his scenes as if someone were asleep in the next room – he's become a very sly scene-stealer."[9] Sandra Brennan at Rovi noted that: "Whereas many funnymen have been popular for their ability to overreact and mug their way around everyday obstacles, Grodin belonged, from the beginning, to the Bob Newhart school of wry comedy that values understatement and subtlety."[6]
Aside from his film work, he was a frequent presence on television. In 1977, Grodin hosted an episode of the NBC sketch show, Saturday Night Live, where the entire episode revolved around his forgetting that the show was live, and he proceeded to wreck sketches because of his failure to prepare accordingly.[citation needed] His many talk show appearances from the 1970s to the present have often included confrontational and mock angry segments. At one time Johnny Carson "banned" him from The Tonight Show appearances after taking offense at things Grodin had said. The NBC network would receive angry letters from viewers who didn't understand the joke, that he was playing a persona, trying to be as different from typical talk show guests as possible. His appearances on Late Night With David Letterman would sometimes erupt into shouting and name-calling, but Letterman always enjoyed Grodin's segments.
Grodin's career took a turn in 1992, when he played the nervous family man George Newton in the kids' comedy Beethoven opposite Bonnie Hunt. The film was a box-office hit, and he reprised the role in the 1993 sequel. After a supporting role in the acclaimed comedy Dave in 1993, his next film role was in 1994's It Runs in the Family (a.k.a. My Summer Story), which received only a limited release and was a sequel to the film A Christmas Story. Grodin portrayed the frustrated uncle, alongside Martin Short, in the 1994 comedy Clifford. After a 12-year long hiatus from film, Grodin returned to acting in the Zach Braff comedy The Ex (2006).[10]
Recently, Grodin has been making more frequent acting appearances. After guest starring on television shows such as The Michael J. Fox Show and starring in a recurring role on Louie, Grodin has several upcoming supporting roles in films, including Noah Baumbach's While We're Young and Barry Levinson's The Humbling.
From 1995 to 1998, Grodin hosted his own issues-oriented talk show, The Charles Grodin Show, on CNBC and, starting in 2000, became a political commentator for 60 Minutes II. In 2004, Grodin wrote The Right Kind of People, an Off-Broadway play about co-op boards in certain buildings in Manhattan. Grodin's commentaries continue to be heard on New York City radio station WCBS and other affiliates of the CBS Radio Network, as well as on the CBS Radio Network's Weekend Roundup.
He is also a best-selling[citation needed] author; his works include It Would Be So Nice If You Weren't Here, Just When I Thought I'd Heard Everything: Humorous Observations on Life in America and How I Get Through Life. His book, If I Only Knew Then...Learning from Our Mistakes was released in November 2007 by Springboard Press. It is a collection of essays from his famous friends (and friends of friends), with all author proceeds going to the Help USA charity. His book How I Got To Be Whoever It Is I Am came out in April 2009.
Grodin has two children: daughter Marion (a comedian), from his marriage to Julie Ferguson, and son, Nicholas, from his marriage to Elissa Durwood.[11][12][13] For a period in the 2000s, Grodin gave up show business to be a stay-at-home dad to his son.[14]

text: Hi all - yesterday I woke up with wet undies - it wasn't urine. . . even though the doctors try to convince you it was, I TOTALLY know the difference. Anyway, went in to the doc about 3-4 hours later and they said they couldn't see amniotic fluid and I wasn't dilated - maybe losing the mucus plug. So, went home, and later in the day yesterday I threw up twice - out of the blue - then had contractions pretty much on and off all night and today. Did this happen to anyone? Are these things signs of anything coming?

Baby brown, I think I need you now
To put me down and help me lift me up
Your shaking bones in my telephone
No good for anyone
Baby brown, so you think you know me now
You tell me how and show me everything
Your wandering mind and your restless kind
I want you here to make some sound
Oh, silent night
Oh, holy night
Baby brown, now you're more than you mean to be
You're mean to me you take away from me
My shaking bones in your telephone
Don't you hear that sound
Oh, silent night
Oh, holy night
Oh, silent night
Oh, there's a hole in the night
Oh, silent night
Oh, holy night
Oh, silent night
Oh, there's a hole in the night

- Put the chicken in a pan, which is large enough to take it snugly. Roughly chop the carrot, onion and celery and tuck around the chicken with the bouquet garni. Pour in enough water to come just over halfway up the chicken, then season with salt and pepper.
- Bring to the boil, then reduce the heat, cover tightly and simmer gently for 1-1¼ hrs, until the chicken is well cooked. Carefully lift the chicken out onto a board lined with kitchen paper to absorb any stock that leaks out. Then strain the stock, discarding the veggies, and measure 500ml into a jug – any extra you can cool and freeze for another time.
- Heat the oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Strip the meat from the chicken, discarding the skin and bones. Cut the meat into large chunks and put into a 1-litre pie dish.
- Melt the butter in a pan, add the leeks and fry until starting to soften. Sift in the flour and cook for 1 min. Gradually stir in the stock, cooking until the sauce is smooth and glossy. Take off the heat and add lemon, parsley and crème fraîche. Season. Pour the sauce over the chicken and leave to cool.
- Roll out the pastry and trim to 5cm larger than the pie dish. Brush the edge of the dish with water. Lay the pastry on the pie, tucking the edges under to make a double layer around the rim. Press the pastry edge to seal it. Roll out any trimmings to make leaves for the top. Brush the pastry with milk or egg and bake for 30-35 mins until the pastry is golden.

text: @Diamond said: " Waiters often don't even earn minimum wadge. They're just poor people that need the tips to sustain any kind of life. If you get a horrible waiter, don't tip them. If you get a good one, pay a generous tip. It's simple enough. The restaurant owners may charge too much, but depending on where you go, the waiters might not be treated any better. "So they're doing slave labor? The reason it's called minimum wage is because that's the minimum a company is allowed to give their employee. If they're not paying that much, they're doing something wrong and the employees need to get out of there. I can understand the reason not to tip -- I've worked in customer service pretty much all of my life and never receive tips -- giving good customer service as a greeter, or a deli server (which involves making the food as well as serving it), a cashier, or a customer service rep -- none of those see tips and they have to deal with customers as much as servers, and their wages are seldom much more than minimum wage, either. It's strange that one form of customer service deserves it more than another, considering most of them involve dealing with mean/dumb/obnoxious customers, staying on your feet all day, and having to provide a smile the entire time. Back when waitresses were responsible for taking the order, carrying all the food, making sure things were going okay, then cleaning up afterwards, I could see the reason to tip. But now there are multiple people bringing out orders (more often than not now, when I order food, someone who wasn't my server brings it out... so do I count that as good service?), then the original server will ask if things are okay, bring the bill, and then someone else will clean up the table... So who exactly is deserving of a tip at that point? That said, I still find myself giving tips at restaurants out of the feeling of social pressure, even though I think people like deli clerks - who have to serve food, make custom orders, deal with customers non-stop, stay on their feet, etc. are far more deserving.

3 reasons to upgrade to HP Integrity during 2013
Whether watching television, checking mail, or reading the newspaper, I am seemingly inundated with a flurry of information on the new 2013 and even 2014 car models. There is an abundance of models to compare, deals that encourage us to take a test drive, and an unending list of promotions designed to grab our interest. For me, I really enjoy the promotions on sports cars, especially as I look out the window at the New England weather and see the snow piling up! Although I may be motivated by the harsh winters to dream about warmer climates and a new sports car, it does get me thinking about what motivates others to upgrade to a new car. Whether your reason to upgrade is to get better gas mileage, more reliability, or just have a better and newer car, I realize there are similarities to why HP customers are upgrading their mission-critical server environments to the new HP Integrity systems.
What decisions or criteria influence you to buy or upgrade your existing IT infrastructure? Over the next few months, I plan to share customers' stories expanding on the reasons they upgraded their mission-critical infrastructures. Each month, I will feature a customer who has driven their infrastructure "fast forward". Yes, fast forward, just as when you sit in front of your TV and fast forward thru the commercials to get to the information you are really looking for.
After delving into many of our customers' stories, I found several reasons customers needed to upgrade their systems.
1. Business enablement - Does your existing server handle your business' needs? Are you getting the results you expect? Do you need faster responses or new functionality? If your IT infrastructure is "status quo", you may be missing an opportunity. In today's ultra-competitive global markets, infrastructure that enables your business helps you compete better. Don't be satisfied with the status quo when your competitors are driving forward.
2. Bigger bang for your IT buck – Look at the personal computer. What cost $5000 five years ago now costs just $500. The new generation of infrastructure --- servers, operating environments, storage, networks –has stunning TCO/ROI benefits; energy savings for power and cooling, dramatically reduced cost/sq. ft., lower support costs, and in many instances, fewer resources are required to manage it. Not many IT budgets are growing. An infrastructure that delivers bigger bang for your IT budget is required.
3. Leverage today's economy because interest rates have never been lower. Gain more budget flexibility with financing to conserve capital or leasing options that deliver bottom line value. A typical lease runs for 3-5 years. At lease end, the option to extend or buy outright can be very attractive.
As I peruse the new Audi TT promotional material and choose colors, you may want to consider how the new HP Integrity systems can drive you fast forward by checking out the new Integrity systems. Compare features. Explore the HP-UX operating environment... The time has never been better to take advantage of new mission-critical capabilities, drive down costs, and gain a competitive edge. Get familiar with the upgrade tools and services offered and consider the programs that can help you...
