[Guide] Swain, the Pain Train
Introduction What's In A Swain? Stats Skills That Kills To Be A Master The Rune Tune Summoner Spells The Basics Level Up! Sweet Loot The Train Lanes As You're Chugging Along As You Pull Into The Station Nevermore All Patched Up So Long, And Thanks For All The PAIN Introduction Swain is possibly one of the most misunderstood champions in League of Legends. While his spell-combo is quite intuitive (like Ryze) particular use of Swain's mechanics will divide those good and those great with The Master Tactician. Also, Swain's high Influence Point cost means that less people have gotten games in with Swain and the knowledge and experience base is a little lower than other more well-known champions. This guide is an attempt to remedy these ideas as Swain truly is a force to be reckoned with. What's In A Swain? Simply put, Swain is an aggressive support caster with a heavy emphasis in nuking. There are many good nuking champions and Swain is among them. He may not have the power of a rune prison or a flaming, stun-inducing drop bear but make no mistake, Swain nukes and nukes well, the main thing that differentiates Swain from his other caster friends is his AoE snare and slight shift away from single target control. Think of Swain vs. someone like Malzahar, that's the kind of difference I'm talking about. Stats Copied from the League of Legends website: Damage 49 (+3 / per level) Health 385 (+78 / per level) Mana 240 (+50 / per level) Move Speed 310 Armor 12 (+4 / per level) Spell Block 30 (+0 / per level) Health Regen 1.35 (+0.13 / per level) Mana Regen 0.86 (+0.09 / per level) Skills That Kills Here are Swain's skills copied verbatim from his entry on the League of Legends website: Decrepify - Swain sets his raven to cripple an enemy. Over the next three seconds, the target takes damage over time and is slowed. Swain sets his raven to cripple an enemy. Over the next 3 seconds, the target takes 25/40/55/70/85 (+0.3) magic damage per second and is slowed by 20/23/26/29/32%. Cost 60/70/80/90/100 Mana Range 550 Nevermore - Swain marks a target area. After a short delay, mighty talons grab hold of enemy units dealing damage and rooting them. Swain marks a target area.

Cost 80/90/100/110/120 Mana Range 900 Torment - Swain afflicts his target, dealing damage to them over time and causing them to take increased damage from Swain's attacks.

Cost 65/70/75/80/85 Mana Range 600 Ravenous Flock - Swain inspires dread in his enemies by temporarily taking the form of a raven. During this time ravens strike out at up to 3 nearby enemies. Each raven deals damage and heals Swain for half of the amount. Toggle: Swain transforms into the form of a raven, during this time up to 3 lesser ravens strike out at nearby enemies each second. Each raven deals 50/75/90 (+0.2) magic damage and heals Swain for half of that amount. The cost to sustain Ravenous Flock increases by 5/7/9 mana each second. Cost 25/25/25 Initial Mana Cost Per Second Range 20 Carrion Renewal (Passive) - Swain's base mana regeneration is increased by 300% for 5 seconds after killing an enemy unit. To Be A Master Follow the standard 9/0/21 mastery build. The Rune Tune Standard caster runes be everywhere. Magic Pen Marks, CDR Glyphs, Mana Regen per lvl Seals and Flat Health Quints. Summoner Spells You have a couple of options here. My personal preferences are Flash and Ignite. You're generally fast enough to get out of harm's way without Ghost (plus you can snare people as you run) and your ultimate keeps you up enough that I'd feel better getting out of trouble by Flashing out of the way then Ghosting and crossing my fingers. Ignite just fits well with the nuking theme of Swain's abilities. That being said other notable summoner spells are: Ghost, Teleport and even Exhaust (if you really need one) or Clairvoyance (if you don't have one and are comfortable with your second summoner spell being utility). Stay away from Clarity on Swain though, he doesn't need it. The Basics Now that all the technical information and pre-game stuff is out of the way we can begin to talk about actually killing people with Swain. The easiest way to unleash maximum pain upon your opponents is to familiarize yourself with his basic spell combo: Nevermore, Torment, Decrepify (a.k.a. Lazerbird), Ravenous Flock. You can choose not to open with Nevermore but I've found that landing your snare first maximizes your damage output on Lazerbird, even though Nevermore won't apply Torment's effect. Your skill order may change depending on the circumstance but this is your bread and butter combo that gives you the best frontload nuking. Because Swain's abilities are almost all damage over time spells, you should get used to running back and forth while you wait for your cooldowns and never forget to use your ultimate to recoup your health or even farm a little. Swain survivability is heavily influenced by the power of his ultimate so don't forget to use it. Once you've got this combo down and are beginning to get the hang of his abilities we can talk about skill orders and item builds. Level Up! I recommend taking Nevermore at level one, as you never know when you'll need the stun. You're hardly going to be expected to just open up with lazerbird at the start of the game so having a snare can come in handy if anything goes particularly wrong or right at the start of the game. From there max either Decrepify or Torment depending on your preference. Because Decrepify does more total damage than torment, I tend to max that first although the total damage increase from Torment is also an argument for maxing that first. Whatever you decide to do, make sure you have all three skills by level three and then max as you please grabbing your ultimate at every available level. Personally I grab Nevermore at level one and then prioritize R > Q > E > W. Sweet Loot Because Swain's passive benefits his mana regeneration so much, Swain's item build focuses on mostly pure AP. His core item build should be: Sorcerer's Shoes Deathfire Grasp Rylai's Crystal Scepter From then you can grab items as you please depending on the situation and team makeup but these three items will never be bad. With this core build in mind, let's expand a little to see what Swain's starting item build will probably be look like: Start with an Amplifying Tome and a Health Potion Then get Kage's Lucky Pick and Boots. From there on it's up to you whether you probably want to finish your Fiendish Codex and then your Deathfire Grasp but if you're doing well you can grab your Blasting Wand early. Generally I would try and obtain your core items in the order they are listed above and then adjust your build based on your income during the game. After your core build you can grab any one of: Zhonya's Ring, Archangel's Scepter, Abyssal Scepter or Void Staff or even a defensive item like Banshee's Veil or, if you're feeling super saucy something like Warmog's Armor. Now that Deathfire Grasp's active is a must-have item you can add it to your spell combo (and Ignite too if you have it). The extra slow (and health!) from Rylai's is also a godsend and remember that your Ravenous Flock birds will proc the slow from Rylai's as it hits your enemies. The Train Lanes One of Swain's greatest strengths lies in his laning ability. As a mid champion Swain is able to harass champions and recoup his mana through use of his passive, while staying in lane due to the power of Ravenous Flock. Swain's ultimate will keep his health topped up for quite a long time and if your opponent pushes to far in mid you can punish them with your spell combo. As long as you correctly adjust your aggression to your opponent you will hold your lane and hold it well against all but the biggest and baddest champions in mid. In a side-lane Swain can continue to be the laning powerhouse he is but you should probably aim for more aggression as you've got a partner to help you dish out the pain. Focus on landing a successful Nevermore and punish out-positioned opponents while keeping your mana topped up at all times. Swain's laning power comes from his ability to constantly keep his mana - and from six onwards his health - replenished at all times, so you'll need to get used to Swain's auto attack to last hit consistently enough to keep your mana high. Swain is quite mana hungry even with mana regeneration seals and his passive so keep an eye on your mana in the early game. His passive does allow you to prioritize AP items before anything else though which gives him quite a lot of early game power. Don't be afraid to harass with Nevermore either, as long as you're going to last hit a minion or two in the process. In any case try and save your aggression until around level six as once your ultimate is up you feel a lot safer as well as your spells hitting that much harder as Decrepify scales very well with level. As You're Chugging Along Although Swain would love the laning phase to continue for as long as possible it's inevitable that the lanes are going to start breaking up as the mid game approaches. Once the mid game does happen your job is highly dependent on how well your laning phase went. If you farmed well your job is to gank as many players as possible and support your teammates. Even if teamfights do start breaking out an AoE snare is nothing to laugh at. Your job during these teamfights is to snare either the squishiest target or the closest depending on your opponent's positioning. While snagging multiple people in Nevermore can be good, it's better to try and isolate single targets as your cooldowns aren't yet low enough to consider casting Nevermore mid skirmish. As a a general rule you want to initiate with Nevermore and finish with Decrepify and if all goes well recoup some health with your ultimate too. Remember that while pushing both minion waves and neutral monster camps can be key in keeping your health high during a lull in any fight or push. The Wolves and especially the Wraith camp on Summoner's Rift are excellent for recouping some quick HP and the longer you are alive during a push the better. Also get into the habit of last-hitting minions that are wandering by while you're backing up and waiting on cooldowns, you need to keep your mana up somehow so keep full map awareness at all times. When ganking a lane (especially a side-lane if you were in mid) always try and lead with Nevermore and try and time the spell so that they run into it as they retreat. From there your basic spell combo should close things out. If you have Deathfire Grasp at this point don't forget to use it as it adds a massive ton of damage to your nuking ability. As You Pull Into The Station Once the late game approaches you are again dependent on the items in which you have. Once you approach the end of the game however you are now to be more of a consistent threat in a fight that simply just a dedicated squishy killer. While killing their carry is your first priority the other nuking champions do this much better than you do so you'll have to position intelligently and react to the fight rather than just gunning for them and hope you kill them. Good Nevermore use can and will determine the outcome of a fight for your team as the more you can disrupt their positioning in a teamfight the better and simply nuke and juke as you please. Although this is unlikely, it's also possible that you'll need to just stand in the middle of a teamfight with your ultimate on while casting spells on the closest available targets. While this is incredibly powerful at times it drains your mana incredibly quickly and should generally only be used to close out a fight or as a desperation attempt. Don't forget your Ultimate as part of your damage output in fights either as it will make or break the difference between someone's survival or their demise. Nevermore Most of Swain's abilities are reasonably straightforward with the exception being his AoE snare, Nevermore. Seeing as clever Nevermore use is one of the key's to playing Swain successfully this entire section is dedicated to discussion of the spell. When casting Nevermore always, ALWAYS lead your opponent. Generally you want to place the bulk of the targeting reticule (about 3/4s of it) in the space behind your opponent as they will generally run backwards when the see you, leave a slight space in the front incase they stay still or shift forward a little but generally you want to lead behind them. It's important that you be on target with the majority of your Nevermore's as the cooldown, especially at low levels, is punishingly high. In bigger teamfights you can zone entire areas of a fight with the spell but generally you'll only be Nevermore'ing single targets so treat the spell that way the majority of the time but don't forget the fact that it's an AoE spell. When using the spell as a lead for a gank, try and time it so that you arrive in range to Torment them the second the snare effect on the spell starts so Lazerbird has the best chance of ticking for its full duration. If you have Deathfire Grasp, always save the cast of it until after Decrepify as the slow should give you enough space to still hit with the active from your item. When running don't forget that your best method of escaping is often casting Nevermore as you run. Again, lead with the spell but obviously lead it in front of them this time. Generally while retreating it's best to Nevermore either in the open space in front of them or with their feet just touching the outside of the reticule as you go to cast it however, you'll need to adjust depending on your opponent. All Patched Up At the time of writing this guide a recent patch (v220.127.116.11) has seen a few changes to Swain, don't worry they're currently all buffs! Here are the patch notes copy-pasted from the League of Legends website: Decrepify leash range slightly increased Torment range increased to 625 from 600 Ravenous Flock cooldown decreased to 10 seconds from 15 seconds Updated Swain's recommended items While I could care less about the last change, everything else about these changes are great for Swain. While they're all minor changes they all increase your ability to do what this guide describes and then change to Decrepify is especially nice and will (hopefully) allow for more complete damage Lazerbirds. As always, use your range to your advantage as well as the fact that you can afk from your enemies as they die, before coming back to kill the next one! So Long, And Thanks For All The PAIN Swain might not have the facerolling capabilities of the Ryze Bot, or be the highest DPS champion but he is a nuking-based caster with a ton of survivability and not enough respect. Swain is a force to be reckoned with in any game and this guide is but a mere reflection on Swain's abilities. Start riding the Pain Train for yourselves and see if you can't make your opponents want to run away screaming as your raven plucks out their eyeballs while they run. |
Nope, another guide that fails the skill order
If you max something other than Torment First you are doing things horribly wrong. Also, if I see another person who writes a guide that doesn't bother to at least spell NEVERMOVE correctly I'm going to have to take out my frustrations on some baby seals.
Some more constructive criticisms and things that are noteworthy: -Swain's passive now grants your mana return INSTANTLY (as of today's patch) -Unless you have a carry/jungler that demands the Elder Golem buff, its worth mentioning that Swain is more than likely your teams best candidate for it because of how his ult works. -If you have to lane with a partner, volunteer to baby sit your carry. Because of how well Swain harasses, in addition to the fact that he isn't a bursty champ, you are a great candidate to help your carry get fed better than most tanky champs |
Is the spell seriously called Nevermove? I just assumed that was a typo by Riot. Phreak's pronounciation of the spell sounds like Nevermore in the spotlight and Nevermove is a horrible name for a spell so I just assumed it was wrong.
Hasnt' been updated for current patch, but the change is clearly a slight buff. Fair enough with the skill order can change the guide to reflect that. Sorry I usually don't bother to check actual numbers and for the most part prefer intuition. Also this is a good example of constructive criticism and plain flaming. Love you too Ahrimal, respect your opinion but not your attitude. It's people like you that haunt the mid ELO games that make me wanna cry myself to sleep. |
It's ''Nevermove'' because it's a hint to the hero ''Nevermore'' in the DoTA, but the reason why they changed the name a bit is so it gives what the skill makes. It's doing both things at once!
Well, you see, there are things called puns.
its also a reference to Poe's "The Raven"...specifically to the line "Quoth the Raven, Nevermore."
Most people on these forums probably don't even know who Poe is.
I use a less bursty, more durable build - but I'm sure this works too. It's nicely written as well, so +1.
As a note to Nevermove in that section, when being chased in relatively close proximity, my general rule of thumb is to cast it on top of myself, with the reticule between myself and my pursuers, but touching my feet. They often run right in to it. There's also nifty tricks with Nevermove and bush hopping. Run to the otherside of a bush so they can't see you through the fog of war, and then immediately juke back to the other side when they enter the bush. Exit from the side they entered, and immediately drop Nevermove on that side of the bush. They won't see the marked area from the other side of the bush, and walk right in to it. |
I do he's awesome!
Also that juke is sweet, I should try that. |

Space Qube - A Voxel Based Retro Style Game
Hi everybody,
my name is Owen (aka fallingcat). My friend and l are developing an iPhone/iPad game which is about to hit iTunes store so I want to share you some information about this game here. The game we are developing called Space Qube, it's a retro style shooting game which is based on voxel rendering. Everything in this game are made by cubes (voxel) and the best part is taht there is an in-game model editor which allows the user to create models using cubes then share the models with the world via the Internet, email and Facebook. Of course the users can also choose their own model to play the game, does it sound cool? Here are some in-developing screenshots of the game! The game is composed of two parts, game and workshop. The game part The game is simple but fun, the players control the space ship, flying toilet(?) or anything that players created to shoot as many aliens as possible to get highest score. Of course there are some power-ups for the players to increase the weapon power, speed, etc. There are also variety bosses waiting ahead, destroy them to get higher score and rewards. There is no annoying virtual pad on the screen, the players just tilt the iPhone/iPad to control the space ship. The workshop part The workshop contains a voxel model editor and browser. With browser, the players can browse through the voxel models they have created or the voxel models uploaded by other players. The players can also download, rate other player's voxel models, modify them then use them to play the game. For creation part, the players can create 16x16 or 32x32 size models on iPad but only 16x16 size models on iPhone/iPod due to the screen size. The way the players create a voxel model is actually editing layers, and those layers will be composed. There are couple of handy tools the players can use in the model editor. So now the players can just use their figure to create voxel model on iPhone/iPad, isn't it amazing? After creating the voxel model, the players can share them via the Internet, email or facebook. Our official website lists all the uploaded voxel models and anyone with browser can view the uploaded voxel model from PC/Mac or iPad/iPhone. Following are the editor tutorial picture and video which should help you to have the basic idea about how to use this incredible voxel editor. The Rendering Behind Space Qube Video The in-game voxel model editor demo This demo video shows how to create a voxel model in game and browse it in model browser. The editor UI layout in this video is for iPad. We actually designed a different UI layout for iPhone/iPod to better fit the smaller screen. Here are some pictures of the main character. Thanks to my artist friend, it looks really cool and like an old school 8-bits game character goes to the 3D world And before you can play the game, you can now view the voxel model on the browser! Just click the following two links to view it. It requires flash 10 or later plug-in to run it. You can use mouse with left button pressed to rotate the model. https://www.lynxengine.com/games/spa...3d&modelID=785 https://www.lynxengine.com/games/spa...3d&modelID=755 I really want to share you more information about the game but I am afraid it would be too long for one thread but I will keep revealing more information in the future. So you can follow us at https://twitter.com/spaceqube if you want to know more information about this game. My personal blog (http://midnightcoder.blogspot.tw/) will have more in-depth articles and developing diary about this game so you can also check it. This game will be free on iTunes store soon. Then we will port it to Windows 8, Windows Phone 8 and maybe Android. We are in crunch mode right now but I will try to post more video about the editor and gameplay soon. As usual, any suggestions, comments and questions are welcome. We still have time to adopt your opinions before submitting the build Official site : http://spaceqube.lynxengine.com Twitter : https://twitter.com/spaceqube Facebook page : http://www.facebook.com/SpaceQube Dev Blog : http://midnightcoder.blogspot.tw/ Cheers, Owen Last edited by fallingcat; 02-21-2013 at 01:01 PM.. |

A Stroll Through the Towle Property
Thursday, April 25, 2013
Greg Cuffey, the president of the Newfield Historical Society, led a group through Newfield's past on Sunday, April 21, during a program on the old Towle property.
The Towle family purchased the property from Sherburn Clifford in 1872 and owned it up until it was donated. During that time, the barn had many uses. During the early part of the 1900s, a dried apple business was run out of it. Apples were shipped to Newfield from Old Orchard, dried on the property, then shipped oversees to England. Some of the old drying racks were still inside the barn. It was also used to store an old classic car and later as a chicken house.
All bids must be received by Tuesday, April 30 at 4 p.m.
■ Tea Time will be held on Wednesday, May 1, at the Newfield Village Library at 637 Water Street at 3 p.m. |

Welcome to the July MFT Hop!
I need to make this post kind of short and sweet, because I'm *really* not feeling well today, but I just had to show you another preview of another adorable new set release, Catch Some Rays!
Whatdya think? Is it time for summer?! :)
To make this card, I just traced and cut a half circle shape and adhered it on to a card base that was also a half-circle shape. I randomly cut triangles from some scraps I had and sewed up and down each "ray" before sewing them all to the card base. I then added my image and some buttons to frame the sentiment.
Stamps: MFT's Catch Some Rays
Papers: MFT Perfect Panels, DP by My Mind's Eye and Scraps
Inks: Memento Black
Accessories: Sewing Machine, Copic Markers, Pop Dots
Here's some more info on this month's release!
There are FOUR new sets being released tomorrow (Wednesday, July 1). They are:
WTG Catch Some Rays $15.95
Puttin on the Glitz $17.95
Puppy Chow $9
Purrfect Treats $9
(Or order the One Click Collection --all 4 stamp sets--for $46 for the first 48 hours after the release.)
MFT will also be releasing a new Polka Dot Ribbon Nest in perfect-for-summer colors! (5/8" grosgrain, swiss dot ribbon in bright pink, red, navy, emerald green and yellow) 5 yards each of the 5 different ribbons for a total of 25 yards. $11.95
If you feel like you need all the stamps AND that snazzy ribbon, go ahead and grab the Buy It All Bundle: all 4 stamp sets, plus the polka dot ribbon nest retails for $63.85 but will be on sale for $57 for the first 48 hours after the release.
This week's Weekly Spotlight is Glittered Dots and Flowers. That means that Glittered Dots and Flowers will be discounted 10% on the MFT site from 7/1-7/7.
And finally, if you're one of the first 50 shoppers for this release, you'll automatically receive a FREE Memento Dew Drop! This is actually the Memento Dew Drop Collection Launch Day! For the next 24 weeks, the first 50 prize will be a Memento Dew Drop, and each week we will feature a NEW color. If you place an order each Wednesday and are in the first 50 orders, you will earn the complete collection for FREE over the next 24 weeks. Today, the first 50 will receive a FREE Memento Dew Drop in Angel Pink with their order.
Hope you made it through all that! There's obviously a LOT going on with MFT lately! Hope you enjoyed this stop. Your next stop on the hop is Barbara! Go check out her blog for what I'm sure is going to be something to knock your socks off!
Enjoy your evening! :)

Everyone has rights. What rights you have can depend on your age. For example, adults are allowed to do things that children are not such as buy alcohol, have a credit card or take out a loan.
Having rights or age-restrictions in place are important as they:
It's important to remember that the law is there to protect young people, not to punish them.
The law can be complicated about alcohol so it is worth knowing what you can and can't do. The general laws are:
Age 5 and upYou may drink alcohol at home with adult supervision.
Age 14 You can go to a pub which has a children's certificate, but you can't buy or drink alcohol.
Age 16You can drink wine, beer or cider with a meal in a restaurant.
Age 18You can buy alcohol but remember it is against the law to buy alcohol for anyone under the age of 18.
Age 10In England, Wales and Northern Ireland, you are criminally responsible at 10 years old. That means that you are legally responsible for your actions. Any criminal behaviour will be dealt with by the courts.
Age 12If you live in Scotland, you are criminally responsible at 12 years old. This means that you are legally responsible for your actions. Any criminal behaviour will be dealt with by the courts.
Age 18You can be called for jury service. You can change your name (16 years old in Scotland).You can act as an executor of a person's will.
At any ageYou can make a complaint if you think you're being discriminated against because of race, colour, ethnic origin, sexuality. You can also make an official complaint against the police.
Age 16You can buy a National Lottery ticket.
Age 18You can place a bet.
Until you turn 16, your parents, carers or guardians are responsible for you.
But if living at home is becoming too difficult, or you are in danger (maybe because of problems like physical or sexual abuse, neglect, emotional abuse, or domestic violence) talk to someone as soon as possible. This could be a teacher, another relative or the leader of a youth group. You can always contact ChildLine at any time for free and confidential help and support.
If you feel you have to leave home, try to be prepared - contact your local council to ask about emergency help from social services.
At age 16
You can leave home without your parents' or carers' consent (you don't need their permission). If you become homeless and you're 16 or 17 years old, you may be entitled to help with money, housing, education, training and support from social services.
You can get practical advice on your rights and what you can do to find a place to live by calling Shelter. Your local council will be able to give you more information on the help you're entitled to.
Although you can't usually rent a home or claim benefits before the age of 18, there are exceptions. Help is available if you are 16 or 17 years old and can't live at home. Your local council or a housing advisor will be able to tell you about housing support for under 18s.
From the age of 18
After you turn 18, you can rent your own place and get a mortgage if you have enough money. Get advice on finding your own place to live for the first time.
In England, you must stay in some type of education or training until the end of the academic year when you turn 17. This doesn't only have to be school, it can also be:- full-time education at college - an apprenticeship - part-time education or training (as well as being employed, self-employed or volunteering for 20 hours or more a week)
In Scotland, if you turn 16 between 1 March and 30 September you can leave school after 31 May of that year. If you turn 16 between 1 October and the end of February you can leave at the start of the Christmas holidays in that school year.
In Wales, you can leave school on the last Friday in June, as long as you'll have turned 16 by the end of that school year's summer holidays.
Age 11You can open your own current account (a type of bank account) but you will need your parents' permission.
Age 16Under certain circumstances you can claim Jobseeker's Allowance, Income Support, and other benefits. You can open your own current account without your parent's permission.
Age 13Is the youngest age you can get a part-time job, unless you are working in certain areas for example TV, modelling or theatre.
Age 16You can get a full-time job. The NSPCC recommends this as a minimum age that you can work as a babysitter.
Age 16You can join the Army with parental consent, but you won't be able to go on active service until you are 18.
Age 18You can vote. You can become a local councillor.
Age 12You are able to see your medical records, as long as your doctor believes that you will be able to understand what they mean. Medical records are details of any condition or illness you have and what treatment you may have been given.
If you just want to have a look at your records, you can ask your doctor or nurse and they should be able to help you. If you want to be able to keep your medical records, you will have to email or write to the hospital to ask.
Age 16 You can legally have heterosexual sex (between a man and a woman) or homosexual or gay sex (between two members of the same sex).
If the person is in a position of trust (for example a teacher or youth worker) then it's illegal for them to have sex with someone aged under 18 who is their responsibility.
You can get married (also same-sex marriage in England and Wales). You need your parents' permission if you are under 18.
In Scotland, you don't need your parents' permission to get married as long as you are over 16.
Any ageYou can visit a doctor or adviser to talk about a pregnancy-related issue, such as contraception or abortion. Anything that you say should be kept private and confidential, even if you're below the age of consent (16). If you're worried, check first with the medical professional you're seeing and ask if what you say will be confidential. Find out more about seeing your doctor.
You can buy condoms at any age. You can also get them for free at sexual health clinics, young people's clinics and community contraception clinics.
Sex without consent is illegal at any age.
At 18 you can buy tobacco and cigarettes. Smoking cannabis or weed is illegal. Find our more about smoking.
Age 16You can get a license to drive a moped.
Age 17You can apply for a driving licence to drive a car.
At any ageTo travel abroad you will need a passport. Your appearance will change a lot so once you are over 16 you should get an adult passport.
Age 16Legally you can buy a pet.
Age 18You can buy fireworks.
Universal Children's Day is celebrated on 20 November every year. This is the date that the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) was created in 1989.
The Convention applies to all children and young people aged 17 years and younger. The UN Convention has 54 articles which are different parts of the Convention, that say what rights children have, and how the Government should protect those rights.
The Convention gives children and young people a set of rights that include their right to health, an education, rest and play. It also says that governments must do everything they can do to protect and support children and young people.

Practice of restricting people to certain circumscribed areas of residence or to separate institutions and facilities on the basis of race or alleged race. Racial segregation provides a means of maintaining the economic advantages and higher social status of politically dominant races. Historically, various conquerorsamong them Asian Mongols, African Bantu, and American Aztecshave practiced discrimination involving the segregation of subject races. Racial segregation has appeared in all multiracial communities, except where racial amalgamation has occurred on a large scale, as in Hawaii and Brazil. In such places there has been occasional social discrimination but not legal segregation. In the Southern states of the U.S., public facilities were segregated from the late 19th century into the 1950s (see Jim Crow law), and in South Africa a system of apartheid sanctioned discrimination against nonwhites until it was abolished in the 1990s. The U.S. civil rights movement and Civil Rights Act of 1964 helped end racial segregation in education and public facilities, though other forms of racial discrimination continued.

The authenticity and integrity of a SUSE security announcement is guaranteed by a cryptographic signature in each announcement. All SUSE security announcements are published with a valid signature. To verify the signature of the announcement, save it as text into a file and run the command gpg --verify replacing with the name of the file where you saved the announcement. The output for a valid signature looks like: gpg: Signature made using RSA key ID 3D25D3D9 gpg: Good signature from "SuSE Security Team " where is replaced by the date the document was signed. If the security team's key is not contained in your key ring, you can import it from the first installation CD. To import the key, use the command gpg --import gpg-pubkey-3d25d3d9-36e12d04.asc - Package authenticity verification: SUSE update packages are available on many mirror FTP servers all over the world. While this service is considered valuable and important to the free and open source software community, the authenticity and the integrity of a package needs to be verified to ensure that it has not been tampered with. There are two verification methods that can be used independently from each other to prove the authenticity of a downloaded file or RPM package: 1) Using the internal gpg signatures of the rpm package 2) MD5 checksums as provided in this announcement 1) The internal rpm package signatures provide an easy way to verify the authenticity of an RPM package. Use the command rpm -v --checksig to verify the signature of the package, replacing with the filename of the RPM package downloaded. The package is unmodified if it contains a valid signature from firstname.lastname@example.com with the key ID 9C800ACA. This key is automatically imported into the RPM database (on RPMv4-based distributions) and the gpg key ring of 'root' during installation. You can also find it on the first installation CD and at the end of this announcement. 2) If you need an alternative means of verification, use the md5sum command to verify the authenticity of the packages. Execute the command md5sum after you downloaded the file from a SUSE FTP server or its mirrors. Then compare the resulting md5sum with the one that is listed in the SUSE security announcement. Because the announcement containing the checksums is cryptographically signed (by firstname.lastname@example.com), the checksums show proof of the authenticity of the package if the signature of the announcement is valid. Note that the md5 sums published in the SUSE Security Announcements are valid for the respective packages only. Newer versions of these packages cannot be verified. - SUSE runs two security mailing lists to which any interested party may subscribe: firstname.lastname@example.com - General Linux and SUSE security discussion. All SUSE security announcements are sent to this list. To subscribe, send an e-mail to . email@example.com - SUSE's announce-only mailing list. Only SUSE's security announcements are sent to this list. To subscribe, send an e-mail to . ===================================================================== SUSE's security contact is or . The public key is listed below. ===================================================================== ______________________________________________________________________________ The information in this advisory may be distributed or reproduced, provided that the advisory is not modified in any way. In particular, the clear text signature should show proof of the authenticity of the text. SUSE Linux Products GmbH provides no warranties of any kind whatsoever with respect to the information contained in this security advisory.

We would like to thank our Sponsors for their Generous Support!
Welcome Letter
I invite you to join me at our fifth statewide conference to be held August 21-23, 2012, at the Woodlake Hotel Sacramento. Our theme identifies our focus: "JOURNEY TO INTEGRATION: Opportunities and Challenges."
In the next few years, health care reform will affect alcohol, drug and problem gambling prevention, treatment and recovery practitioners across the state. With reform in mind, our 2012 Training Conference will focus on ideas for integrating addiction prevention, treatment and recovery services with primary care and mental health services, as well as California's social service, education, and criminal justice systems.
Our plenary sessions and workshops will inspire and energize with new perspectives and ideas for collaboration and integration. Some will address the needs of specific populations in California: Native Americans, military veterans, women, and youth. Others will focus on ways of integrating substance use disorder prevention and treatment into local health clinics and Federally Qualified Health Centers; community colleges; and local community programs. Additionally, we will address innovative and evidence-based practices for alcohol and other drug prevention, treatment and recovery support.
Our keynote speakers bring knowledge, experience and valuable messages from many perspectives. From the federal level, we will hear from David K. Mineta, Deputy Director at the White House Office of National Drug Control Policy; Jon T. Perez, Regional Administrator, Region IX, Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration; and Onaje M. Salim, Director, Division of State and Community Assistance, Center for Substance Treatment, Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration. The Honorable Rogelio R. Flores, Superior Court Judge in Santa Barbara County, will be back for a return engagement to educate and inform on integration with the criminal justice system. Susan B. Blacksher, Executive Director, California Association of Addiction and Recovery Services, will bring her considerable experience to bear on the future of the field in her keynote address.
We all face limitations on available resources—fiscal and otherwise—and we need to share our ideas, opportunities, and innovations to further our combined goals for the field.
Join your peers in Sacramento for two-and-a-half days of powerful presentations and compelling speakers. I look forward to seeing you there.
Michael S. Cunningham
Acting Director
California Department of Alcohol and Drug Programs

Procure to Pay for ICON
The departments of Accounts Payable, Purchasing, Travel and UI Learning and Development are pleased to announce the release of a new online training course "Procure to Pay Training". This ICON course was developed to provide easy, on-line training to educate anyone involved in procurement and payables processes at the University of Iowa.
This course provides guidance to the user on policies and procedures for Accounts Payable, Purchasing and Travel, as well as the order and payment processes. Users will learn to complete on-line Purchase Requisitions (PReqs) to outside vendors, eBuy orders, catalog orders, eVouchers and the receiving of goods and services. This training also provides an overview on how to obtain information from the Accounts Payable/Purchasing (APPO) web pages and ProTrav.
Online training is now the preferred method for Procure to Pay training, as it is available 24/7, on your desk top and can be taken at your convenience.
To register for the online ICON course, follow the steps below:
- Log into My Training at http://compliance.hr.uiowa.edu
- Locate: Procure to Pay Training course # W00209 (either by search or locate within list)
- Click View Course
- Click Enroll in this Course Session
- Click Content (in ICON course once displayed)
If you have questions regarding the Procure to Pay program or the course listed above, please contact firstname.lastname@example.com.
Receiving - New date field for receipt of goods or services
11/12/14-Receivers will now be required to enter the received date of when the goods/services were received. If the "Received Date" is the same as the "Date Entered" the receiver will receive a message asking "Are you sure these goods/services were received today? The receipt date should be the actual date the goods/services were received."
Yellow Business Book Fraud/Scam
A number of departments have reported receiving invoices for Yellow Business Book publications. This is a scam; do not pay. Sample invoice. Link to information from the Better Business Bureau - www.bbb.org/blog/2013/01/yellow-pages-look-a-like-scams/
Electronic Invoice display for Orders in eBuy
On May 19, 2014, the electronic data received and displayed in the AP/PO webpages for eBuy orders is inaccurate. Some of the line information is displayed multiple times. The amount that has posted to your funding MFK is accurate, however, when you look at the electronic invoice in the AP/PO webpages you will notice the item(s) that were ordered display more than once.
Insite Services-Potential Toner Scam
Departments have received phone calls from the vendor Insite Services offering toner products with high cost savings. When the initial order is placed departments are then locked into a quantity ordering requirement with the vendor. The vendor will continue to send invoices to the departments indicating that the minimum order quantity has not been met and if another order is not placed soon the price will increase. The vendor continues these calls even when quantity requirements have been met and is uncooperative to release departments from these agreements. Please be aware of these scams!
Announcing the New Delegation of Signature Authority eForm
The Delegation of Signature Authority form is now available as an online form which electronically routes for review and approval. This form should be initiated by the individual requesting signature authority. The training document is a helpful resource for this form.
Please contact Sherry Reynolds-Miller or firstname.lastname@example.com if you have questions.
Secretary of State's Policy Regarding Fees
Effective March 1, 2013, the Secretary of State's Office will no longer waive fees for the Notary Application fee for State Agencies. The $30 fee is an allowable fee to pay from University accounts.
Toner Scam
A department has received a call from someone named Robert Adams, claiming to be from Allied Business or the like. They claimed there was an order and needed the model number. He said a "memo" had been sent and they would be by to drop off the order. The department uses Koch Brothers for toner, so they knew it was a scam. Please be aware of these scams!
The Purchasing Department has closed active blanket orders for copier maintenance and leases effective September 1, 2009
The University of Iowa Purchasing Department is requires departments to put low-dollar copier lease and maintenance payments on their departmental Procurement Card. This does not include equipment purchases. This procedure change is due to Internal Audit comments regarding appropriate blanket order usage. Contracts will still need to be signed by the Director of Purchasing.
This will benefit departments by allowing you to:
- control on a monthly basis what MFK is charged
- reviewing charges as they come through
- verifying the correct cost per copy rates as stated in the contract.
Copier vendors have been notified to send the appropriate invoices to each individual department. Payment may be called into the vendor or set up to be charged monthly. You may discuss this with your copier lease/maintenance vendor to find which option best suits your department's needs.
Please contact Dani Weber at firstname.lastname@example.com if you have questions or need additional information.
Hy-Vee Charge Cards
It has been brought to Purchasing and Accounts Payable's attention that Hy-Vee has sent out letters informing you of a change in their direct bill program. Hy-Vee offered a new charge card for departments to use for in-store purchases.
The University is not supportive of this program and has asked Hy-Vee to discontinue the issuance of these charge cards. Instead, Hy-Vee will be accepting procurement cards as the preferred method of charging for food orders.
If you have already been issued a Hy-Vee card, the account will be closed by Hy-Vee. You should cut the card up and dispose of it properly.
If you have any questions concerning this process, please contact Debby Zumbach. ↑top
Office Supply Solicitations
From time to time various office supply vendors in our area attempt to market their products to campus end users by offering promotional discounts or other incentives that are in direct competition with the OfficeMax contract we currently have in place through General Stores. Office Depot has offered a discount card in the past and we have recently become aware of a possible email solicitation from Staples marketing a "Convenience Card" that can be used at their local store. If you receive this email please do not apply for this card. Firstly, the billing process they are proposing would have all cards on campus billed to one Corporate Account. Since the University has multiple sources of funding and multiple end users, this would not work for us. Secondly, we cannot support or promote a marketing effort that competes with our already established contract.
A recent incident occurred when Patterson Office Supplies located in Illinois solicited a $25 Mastercard as a promotion to ordering supplies. Please be aware that accepting this is in violation with the Iowa Gift Law. For more information see: Gift Law
If you have questions regarding pricing for any office supply item, please contact the OffficeMax representative at General Stores @ 4-3908. Many items, even those not shown in the catalog, can be obtained through OfficeMax at considerable savings.
Material Transfer Agreements
All Material Transfer Agreements that involve purchases need to be routed to the Division of Sponsored Programs. They must review them before they are sent to Purchasing for signature approval. Please see their website for more info: DSP

How would you spell the name Brinley, Brynlee, or Brynlie for a little girl? nn Bryn. Is it too out there? Thanks!!
We love the nickname Madi for our little girl! The only problem is all of the names (we can think of) for a full name ends in a N sound. Our last name also ends in a (very) strong N sound and ALL of the full names sound horrible. We thought of Madison/Madelyn/Madeline and they all sound horrible. Our question is, do you know of any full names for Madi that DON'T end in an N sound? Thank you -Miranda
