Program Director
Contact Information Center for BioMolecular Modeling Milwaukee School of Engineering 1025 N. Broadway St Milwaukee, WI 53202 Tel: 414-277-1824 Email: firstname.lastname@example.com
Shannon Colton is a Program Director at the Center for BioMolecular Modeling at the Milwaukee School of Engineering. The CBM serves as a bridge between the research laboratory and the classroom using hands-on activities and 3D physical models. Through funding from the NIH (NIH-SEPA and NIH-NIDA), we have developed materials and professional development opportunities for high school educators to engage their students in a hands-on exploration of the molecular world. Shannon directs the SMART (Students Modeling A Research Topic) Team program, where teams of students work closely with a researcher to explore a molecular story, develop a 3D physical model and communicate their projects through posters and oral presentations. She also developed the Protein Modeling Event for the national Science Olympiad, in which students are challenged to model a protein using foam-covered wire and to explore the molecular story of the protein. Shannon received her BS in biology from Marquette University and her PhD in developmental and molecular biology from Marquette University.

What is Colorectal Cancer?
• Colorectal cancer is cancer that starts in the colon or rectum. It usually begins as a polyp on the inner lining of the colon or rectum.
• Polyps form when cells lining the colon grow, divide and reproduce in an unhealthy, disorderly way, producing a growth. These polyps can be cancerous, invading the colon wall and surrounding blood vessels, and spreading to other parts of the body.
• Colorectal cancer frequently begins without symptoms.
What Causes Colorectal Cancer?
The causes of colorectal cancer are unknown. Studies suggest that both genetic and lifestyle factors are the cause.
• Genetics may decide a person's tendency towards the disease. Dietary and other lifestyle factors may determine which individuals may be at risk for developing the disease.
• Diets high in fat and low in fruits and vegetables – such as those that include red meat, fried foods and high-fat dairy products, may increase the risk of colorectal cancer.
• Lifestyle factors that increase the risk of getting the disease include cigarette smoking, obesity, a sedentary lifestyle and heavy alcohol use.
How Common is Colorectal Cancer?
According to the American Cancer Society, colorectal cancer is the third leading case of cancer-related deaths in the United States when men and women are considered separately, and the second leading cause when both sexes are combined.
Overall, the lifetime risk of developing colorectal cancer is about 1 in 20. More women over the age of 75 will die from colorectal cancer than from breast cancer.
Who is At Risk?
• Men and women aged 50 and older are at equal risk of developing colorectal cancer.
• Those with a family history of colorectal cancer or polyps.
• Anyone with a personal history of inflammatory bowel disease, such as Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis.
• The incidence of colorectal cancer is present among all ethnic groups; however, survival rates appear lower in Askenazi Jews and African-Americans.
• People with type 2 diabetes have an increased risk of developing colorectal cancer.
How Can You Prevent Colorectal Cancer?
• Know your family and personal health history.
• If you are aged 50 or older, see your doctor for yearly screenings.
• Eat a low-fat, high fiber diet with plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables.
• Avoid excess alcohol.
• Exercise regularly.
• Prevent obesity.
• The best method to prevent the disease is to find and remove large polyps before they develop into cancer. Regular colorectal cancer screening can help prevent colorectal cancer.
What You Need to Know...
• Early detection saves lives – colorectal cancer is preventable, even curable when identified early.
• If colorectal cancer is detected early, the patient has more than a 90 percent chance of survival.
• Screening for colorectal cancer is safe and effective and is now covered by Medicare and an increasing number of other health providers.
• Screening tests that help in finding cancer in its early stages and removing polyps before they become cancerous include Fecal occult blood test (FOB), Flexible Sigmoidoscopy, barium X-ray and Colonoscopy.
What Are the Symptoms?
The most likely warning signs include:
• Changes in bowel movements, including persistent constipation, diarrhea, a feeling of not being able to empty the bowel completely, or rectal bleeding.
• Dark patches of blood in or on the stool; or long, thin "pencil stools."
• Abdominal discomfort or bloating.
• Fatigue, weight loss, or loss of appetite.
Call Your Doctor If You Notice:
• Blood in or on your stool.
• Stools narrower than usual and changes in bowel movements.
• Persistent or frequent abdominal bloating, cramps, and gas pain.
• Unexplained weight loss, or fatigue.
• These symptoms may be due to other causes, but they could also be linked to cancer. Only your doctor can determine the causes of these symptoms.

(NEW YORK) — Business travel is booming.
According to forecasts from the Global Business Travel Association, corporate travel increased to a record $292 billion in 2014. This year, it's expected to top $300 billion.
By comparison, spending on business travel dipped in 2012 and remained neutral in 2013.
The strengthening economy and efforts to further capture global business are being credited for the turnaround.

Treadwell Library @ MGH Homepage
|About Us
|Library Services
History of Treadwell Library
The early history of Treadwell Library is remarkable for the foresight of medical staff and the generosity of a Salem, Massachusetts physician. In 1847, visiting staff physicians, realizing the importance of having medical books and journals on hand, began a small medical library with a $250.00 authorization for the purchase of medical reference books. Dr. Henry I. Bowditch was appointed as overseer.
In 1858, Dr. John G. Treadwell bequeathed 2500 volumes to the Library that would soon bear his name. In addition to rare medical books and contemporary medical literature, his will provided an endowment of $5,000 to be used for the purchase of additional books. The following year, Dr. Benjamin S. Shaw, at that time a resident physician, was appointed as the Library's first (non-professional) librarian. By 1875, the Library's collection numbered 3500 volumes and Miss G. L. Sturtevant, Matron of the Hospital, was its overseer. As the value of the Library became known, the decision was made to employ a full-time librarian, whose duties would be divided between the Library and Medical Records.
Worcester, Massachusetts native Grace Whiting Myers had once cataloged the private library of an MGH trustee. That trustee exerted his influence, and Grace Whiting Myers was appointed in October, 1897 as an "assistant librarian" to Dr. Arthur T. Cabot, chairman of the Library Committee. At that time, the Library contained 4,872 volumes, which Myers cataloged according to the Dewey Decimal System, and 28 periodical subscriptions to domestic journals and those from England, France, and Germany. Two years later, she requested and received - not without a struggle - a typewriter, the first to be installed at the Library. By 1909, her title was Librarian, and she had a staff of seven assistants.
Grace Whiting Myers was proud of her service to the United States during World War I. She supplied the American Red Cross with a weekly bibliography on the medical and surgical aspects of the war, compiled from journals received at the Library. This unique contribution was published as the War Supplement of Index Medicus. During this time, Myers organized the Association of Record Librarians, reflecting her profound interest in and abilities with clinical medical record management, assisting hospitals in standardizing their methods of caring for medical records.
In 1924, Myers retired. As she stated in her Autobiography, (p. 50) "...[T]he thought of spending my days in any other place than the Treadwell Library...made me sick at heart." Carrie L. Williams became Librarian in 1925, and Myers published her History of the Massachusetts General Hospital, 1873-1900. She continued to make important contributions in the field of medical records, paving the way for the founding of the AAMRL (American Association of Medical Record Librarians) in 1928. The following year, the Medical Records Department separated from the Library. Grace Whiting Myers died in 1950 at the age of 97.
Carrie Williams retired in 1941 and was succeeded by Eleanore A. Lewis. A year before Lewis retired, she reported that Library use had tripled during her directorship. In 1957 Genevieve Cole became director. Cole held the distinction of being the first Treadwell Library director to have a degree in Library Science. At that time, the Library contained over 20,000 volumes and subscribed to over 350 journals. In the 1960's, the Library's collection increased by fifty percent, and a technological advancement took place in 1962 when the Library acquired its first photocopy machine.
Genevieve Cole reorganized Treadwell's collection and presided over the 100th anniversary of the Library. Cole was an officer in the Boston chapter of the Special Libraries Association; in the late 1960's, she was elected National Secretary of the Medical Library Association.
Treadwell's computer era began at the time of Cole's retirement, when she was succeeded in 1973 by Jacqueline Bastille. The focus of the Library began to change, reflecting advancements in technology. Due to space considerations, the original Treadwell Collection was transferred in the 1970's to the Rare Book Department at the Countway Library, Harvard Medical School, and careful collection development became of prime importance.
At the time of Cole's retirement, the Library was named a Medline Search Center by the National Library of Medicine. Since then, staff librarians have carried out literature searches of the Medline database. Since the late 1980's, through contracts with online database vendors, MGH employees have had the flexibility of performing searches themselves, often in the library or their offices, and as technology advanced, in their homes, en route to a conference, or in a cybercafe.
Over the years Treadwell's location has changed to house its growing collection and the needs of its users, but there has never been enough space to house comfortably all the print material as well as computer-based information. Originally located in the Bulfinch Building, it moved to the Moseley Memorial Building in 1916. In 1979, when the Moseley was demolished to make room for the Wang Ambulatory Care Center, Treadwell was relocated to the Bartlett Building, resulting in more space but a less visible location. Two years later, when MGH's diploma school of nursing closed, the Palmer-Davis Nursing Library merged administratively with Treadwell. By 1989, the Library had expanded into the Bartlett Extension. Its new entrance, directly across from the Wang Ambulatory Care Center, increased its visibility and served to heighten awareness of its location.
In the early 1980's, magnetic tape supplanted printed cards and helped prepare the way for the Library's integrated automated system. MAGIC, Treadwell Library's online catalog, was implemented in 1989, and the MGH became the first hospital in the nation whose Library had an online catalog. Since 1995, MAGIC has also been available via the MGH home page on the World Wide Web, at http://1390.sydneyplus.com/Treadwell_Library/Portal.aspx. The Library was one of the first MGH departments on the Internet with a gopher site in 1994 and a web page in 1995.
Jacqueline Bastille, who was elected President of the Medical Library Association in May, 1992, and under whose leadership the information age was ushered in, retired in the spring of 1999. She was succeeded shortly thereafter by Elizabeth Schneider, previously the Assistant Director of Treadwell Library..

[GUIDE] Kennen In-Depth: Mechanics, Strategy, TL;DR to the MAX
[GUIDE] Facerolling with Kennen, Ryze Style
Courtesy of Hugs Not Drugs
Alright, so, I banged this out in literally one solid afternoon. Please forgive any spelling or grammatical mistakes, I'll be editing it later. I also realize the format is a bit unpleasant. I'll fix that too. Until then, enjoy!
When Shen was released, I was intrigued by the energy system. Tanking has been one of my passions for a while, and I found the balance between energy management and effective manipulation of his skills quite fun. Then Kennen came along, and I thought how interesting it could be to play a caster with no significant mana issues. Since then I've wracked up a fair number of games with Kennen; I've essentially only played him since his release, messing around with several different builds. At current, the most effective build I've used (by far) has been AP, and that is what this guide will be primarily covering.
I've tried attack speed, but I feel that neglecting most of his skills in favor of his passive isn't very beneficial. Doing so sacrifices any sort of AoE contributions you might make to a team fight in favor of single target damage. Yes, focusing on Kennen's single target damage means you can more easily stay alive in team fights by sniping from the perimeter, but in my opinion Kennen is a balls-to-the-wall caster. He has far too much AoE potential (both in terms of disables, mind games, and pure damage) to disregard that aspect of his character. Yes, his AP ratios aren't fantastic, but with the ability to hit almost everyone in a fight with several nukes in a very short period of time, anything higher and his burst would be insane.
I've heard people comparing him mostly to Fiddle (zomg crowstorm is so much betr zomg), and on occasion Ryze (zomg guiz lightning). From my experience, I would be more inclined to describe Kennen as the ******* child of Nunu and Ryze; you have the squishiness of Ryze, but you need to be in the middle of the fight to blow your proverbial load on the enemy team, which will inevitably get you focused and disabled ASAP Nunu-style. Kennen requires a tricky balance between risking life and adorable limb to get your spells off and intelligence regarding when you rush head-first into a clump of heroes. In this guide I'll not only detail my suggested item build, I'll go into masteries, runes, things I've been considering trying, alternative builds, and strategies. This is most definitely going to be a work in progress that I'll update as I keep playing and coming up with more ideas, and I am most certainly open to criticism as long as you at least make some semblance of an attempt at defending your points. Thanks, and happy reading!
Skills: The Obligatory Section You Probably Won't Read
Note: I'll get around to adding AP ratios a little later.
(Passive) Mark of the Storm - Kennen's abilities add Marks of the Storm to opponents. Upon receiving 3 Marks of Storm, an opponent is stunned and Kennen receives 25 energy.
This is the bread-and-butter mechanic that makes Kennen useful. Early game it provides a terrifying incentive to stay the hell away from you should you manage to get a charge or two on the enemy hero, and late game it lets you play around with the flow of team fights, as well as chase extremely effectively.
[Q] Thundering Shuriken - Kennen throws a fast moving shuriken towards a location, causing damage and adding a Mark of the Storm to any opponent that it hits. Throws a shuriken that damages the first enemy it hits for 75/115/155/195/235 (+.66) magic damage and adds a Mark of the Storm. Energy Cost 65/60/55/50/45. Cooldown: 7/6/5/4/3 seconds.
Following the ideas outlined in this guide, this should be THE skill you prioritize. Early game it (paired with your [W] especially, but even by itself it's quite powerful) gives you unrivaled harassing power. With no mana and a very short cooldown, you can quickly whittle away at anyone's health during the laning phase, be it a squishy or a tank.
[W] Electrical Surge - Kennen passively deals extra damage and adds a Mark of the Storm to his target every few attacks. Kennen can activate this ability to damage and add another Mark of the Storm to targets who are already marked. Passive: Every 5 attacks, Kennen deals magic damage equal to 40/50/60/70/80% of his attack damage and adds a Mark of the Storm to his target.
Active: Surges electricity through all nearby targets afflicted by Mark of the Storm, dealing 65/95/125/155/185 (+0.45) magic damage and adding another mark. Energy Cost: 45. Cooldown: 14/12/10/8/6 seconds.
The active here is part and parcel to what makes Kennen a true terror during the laning phase, and an effective AoE crowd controller during the team fight phase later. I won't go into much detail here because there's so much to write about this skill, but this should be your second priority next to shuriken. This skill is fantastic, and the passive fifth hit even applies Rylai slow effects.
[E] Lightning Rush - Kennen turns into a pulsating ball of lightning for several seconds, gaining 230 movement speed and the ability to pass through units. Any enemy unit he passes through is dealt damage (85/125/165/205/245 (+0.55)) and receives a Mark of the Storm. Upon hitting any enemy, Kennen gains 40 Energy. Deals half-damage to non-champion units. Energy Cost: 110. Cooldown: 10/9/8/7/6 seconds.
This move is so versatile, it's ridiculous. You can use it to escape (free ghost for the win!), charge into a fight while doing a fair bit of damage and adding marks to everyone you hit, clearing creep waves in conjunction with Electrical Surge, or even speed up the process of running between lanes! Unfortunately, each use has a potential downside; if you use Lightning Rush to flee an unfavorable encounter, you won't get the 40 energy refund and will likely be dangerously low on energy for a few seconds. If you use it to charge in and add marks to your target(s), the fact that you turn bright white and laugh maniacally tends to make you a rather obvious target. For a ninja, Kennen's not very good at stealthy entrances.
[R] Slicing Maelstrom - Bah, couldn't find an up-to-date spell description of this without going into a game. I'll fix it later. It makes lots of lightning bolts rain down on enemy champions every half-second. Each bolt deals 80/145/210 (+0.33) damage, and the number of bolts increase as this skill is leveled. No one hero can be hit more than a certain number of times.
Number of Bolts: 6/8/10. Energy Cost: 40. Cooldown: 120 seconds.

Masteries:: Picking masteries with Kennen is a bit tricky. The utility tree generally offers the biggest set of benefits to most heroes in terms of cooldown reduction, mana regeneration, and overall survivability. Although the other trees are useful, they all simply pale in comparison. Unfortunately for us, mana regeneration does jack for Kennen, given that those masteries have no impact on energy regeneration. This isn't entirely bad, though, because the offensive tree offers a good number of things that an aggressive Kennen can make good use of. Here's what I'm rolling with:
Deadliness: 1/3
Archmage's Savvy: 3/3
Sorcery: 4/4
Alacrity: 4/4
Archaic Knowledge: 1/1
Brute Force: 3/3
Lethality: 3/3
Improved Rally: 1/1
Havoc: 1/1
Good Hands: 3/3
Perseverence: 1/3
Awareness: 4/4
Utility Master: 1/2
The offensive tree ought to be pretty self-explanatory; Kennen needs AP, magic penetration, pure damage, and although he doesn't NEED it for the purposes of this guide, attack speed is always nice given the nature of his [W]'s passive. The utility tree requires a little more explaining; picking useful talents in that tree is tricky, as it's a tree tailored primarily to casters, or at least champions with mana. The primary reason I went with utility was for Utility Master, which is an utterly invaluable mastery. Kennen doesn't have too much trouble catching runners, what with his free ghost and the relative ease with which he can apply stuns, but a red buff means that NOBODY can escape you. This is particularly useful early game when your burst might not be enough to make squishies pop instantly.
Now, you might be asking why I got Improved Rally; the thing about Kennen is that he contributes lots of things to a team fight. The disruptive force of an AP Kennen sliding into the middle of the fight, dropping charges left and right as he barrels through in Lightning Rush, ulting in the center of everyone, waiting a split moment, and then stunning several enemies at once with Electrical Surge is immense. The reason for Improved Rally is this: by the very virtue of Kennen, you're going to be in the thick of things. Dropping a Rally in the middle of a now somewhat confused group of enemies not only buffs the damage you're about to do by a significant amount, it adds a massive boost to the incoming steamroll that should be the rest of your team. Kennen does not single-handedly instagib the enemy team, he's not Fiddle. Instead, he sets up the rest of his team to clean up whatever remains of the hopefully severely-weakened enemy team. Rally goes a long way in that.
The rest of the masteries are pretty self-explanatory for someone going AP and wanting to stay away from mana-related masteries. If anyone wants any deeper clarification, though, I can certainly provide it.
Runes: :
The runes I'm currently rolling with are pretty generic. Cooldown reduction blues, dodge yellows, and attack speed reds. I'm slowly working on replacing the attack speed reds with magic penetration, because it's just generally more useful; most of AP Kennen's damage comes from spells, and although attack speed is indeed useful in the laning phase, hell, so is magic penetration! These runes essentially revolve around pumping your enemies full of shuriken as often as possible, and dodge is just for general survivability. This is a rune set that has gotten me through various champions and playstyles, and is versatile enough to not need much changing based on differences in roles between champions.
Summoner Abilities: Faceroll Part One::
Ah, summoner spells. Here's where the facerolling truly begins. If you've decided to follow this guide based on my grandiloquence and refined speech patterns (how could I ever blame you), then you know that we've specced into Improved Rally, so naturally that's going to be one of our summoner spells. The other, however, could be a number of things. For obvious reasons you don't want to get clarity or revive (if you really want to get clarity and revive on a manaless hero, stick with the classics and roll with Mundo), but most of the other spells have definite uses: ghost provides a truly ridiculous amount of movement speed in conjunction with lightning rush and greatly benefits your ability to initiate quickly by barreling through the enemy team and adding charges before Rush runs out; exhaust has more uses in the laning phase than the team fight phase due to the fact that AP Kennen tends to focus on tagging the majority of the enemy team as opposed to taking out a single target; clairvoyance is just an all-around useful spell in terms of teamwork; ignite follows the same reasoning as exhaust; teleport is situationally useful, it really depends on preference; and cleanse can be useful for getting your entire chain of spells off. I left out smite, fortify, and flash for a reason. Given the role of AP Kennen, I see little reason for getting Smite or Fortify. He doesn't jungle particularly well overall, but can acquire the buffs he needs efficiently enough given his high burst damage and respectable sustained DPS. Fortify in general is just kind of meh, in my opinion. Besides, we didn't spec into improved fortify.
That leaves Flash. Flash is a ridiculous spell. Its uses range from a get-out-of-fail free card, to a fantastic tool for initiation. Given that Kennen almost has a free get-out-of-fail card in Lightning Rush, that leaves Flash as a tool used primarily for initiation. I cannot tell you how wonderful Flash can be at times. There have been numerous situations wherein I was in the jungle and a low-HP ally was running up-lane from a team of would-be gankers, and popping Lightning Rush, flashing over a jungle wall, quickly applying charges, ulting, Surging, and Shuriken-spamming has turned around countless multi-person ganks. Because Kennen can drop his spells so ridiculously quickly, flashing in while Rushing can make for immensely surprising burst potential.
TL;DR: I roll with Flash and Rally.
Itemization on Kennen is something I'm still tooling around with; he runs a dangerous balance between glass cannon and pure feed for the enemy team. For a hero that is pretty much as squishy as Twitch yet needs to be as beefy as someone like Nunu to successfully fulfill his role, items prove some small difficulty. However, Kennen has an ace up his tiny ninja sleeve here: due to the fact that you'll hopefully be Rushing through several heroes at once and then applying a whole ton of AoE to every champion around you, assists will (if all goes according to plan) numerous. This means that even if you die in the process, snowballing items can be effectively built up over the course of several fights. Given the reworked mechanics of Leviathan charge acquisition, you can VERY quickly build up a Leviathan to provide the necessary damage reduction and health that you'll need to survive long enough to get off your skills successfully. So here's my standard item build:
First items: Amplifying Tome, Health Potion. The goal here is to get your snowballing items as early as possible. Between Kennen's early game damage being immense compared to other casters due to a lack of mana constraints as well as people still having very little idea how to fight Kennen's, it's not uncommon for me to get two or three kills by the eight or nine minute mark. If you can stay in lane until you have enough money for Mejai's Soulstealer and Boots 1, do so. In an absolutely perfect world, you'll have enough money at somewhere between the 9 and 11 minute mark to go back to base and pick up a Mejai, boots 1, and Leviathan straight-up. However, this is more often than not NOT the case. Your mileage may vary regarding your ability to last hit and get kills, so just get a Mejai and Leviathan whenever possible.
Build order after the snowballs are out of the way:
I'm a huge fan of magic penetration; Kennen's AP ratios aren't great, and this is complicated by the fact that you don't really want to be building AP items that also give mana, because that's wasted gold. Many of the AP items that lack mana, however, include magic penetration! Huzzah! So here's my simplified order:
Haunting Guise
Rylai's Crystal Scepter
Zhonya's Ring.
With a pair of Sorcerer's Shoes thrown in whenever you find them necessary. If the game goes on long enough and I've capped out my inventory, I'll exchange Haunting Guise for Abyssal Scepter. AoE magic resistance debuff, hellz yeah!
All spoken, this gives you lots of health (it's not uncommon for me to have HP in the ballpark of 2.8k after Giant's Belt -> Rylai's, usually more than our tank), lots of AP, an easily-applied slow, forty magic penetration (before runes), and two seconds of invulnerability for when you rush into the middle of a clump of beefy late-game heroes, blow your load, and then turn golden while they attempt to retaliate by instagibbing poor little Kennen.
Now, the downside to this item build is obvious; if you're not doing very well, two of your items are worthless (Mejai and Leviathan). Even if you can get your two snowballing items to the ballpark of somewhere between eight and ten charges, they're the most gold-efficient items you can get for what they do. If you're tacking assist-tags onto multiple enemy heroes every fight, this shouldn't be too difficult to accomplish, even if you have a reasonably high death count. In fact, it's SO easy to get assists with Kennen, that even if you aren't brazenly confident in your ability to play him, I would STILL recommend getting at least Leviathan in the hopes that the assists you'll inevitably wrack up will give you enough survivability to get even more.
The thing about survivability items on Kennen is that he really needs every single item slot to count. If you keep getting focused by a caster-heavy team, I would suggest you invest at most one item slot into magic resist (physical resist for a physical-heavy team, on the other end of the spectrum) and focus more on managing to stay alive through play style. Through careful manipulation of Shuriken range and staying with the rest of your team, you can manipulate your positioning such that you won't be focused until you're already midway through facerolling your keyboard.
TL;DR: With Kennen, map awareness and careful spacing of yourself relative to your team is far more beneficial than stacking survival items. The sad truth of the matter is that Kennen is not noob-friendly. It takes pre-existing knowledge of game mechanics to play him to his full potential, and that includes a working knowledge of basic team strategy. If you position yourself poorly as Kennen, you WILL die FAST no matter how much armor or magic resist you have.
Ability Build Order::
I'll keep this brief. Here's my ability order:
[Q] - If I'm being harassed to the point that I know I'll have to go back to lane soon, I get Lightning Rush to make the trip faster.
[E] - If you got Lightning Rush at 3, get another level of [Q] here.
Then continue to max Electrical Surge [W] whenever possible, getting your ult when it's available, and ending with Lightning Rush.
The reason I don't level Lightning Rush until late is that it doesn't scale particularly well; you'll use it at the start of a fight to apply one set of charges, and then be unable to use it again due to energy efficiency issues. The energy cost doesn't decrease with level, and decreasing the cooldown does very little for you. You get far more bang for your buck by leveling your other skills first.
Strategy: The Laning Phase:
This should be every Kennen's favorite part of the game. I've found the most success in a side lane with a partner. Kennen can dish out the hurt early, but not as quickly and efficiently as he can at later levels. This means that getting successful stuns off is kind of difficult, so having some sort of teammate with a snare or slow is invaluable.
Important note: I highly suggest you do this when approaching your lane with creeps: Kennen is VERY squishy, never forget this. Because you'll want to get Thundering Shuriken first level for early harassment, you won't have your escape mechanism (Lightning Rush) for several levels. That means that being jumped by a level 1 gank is VERY detrimental to your early game, as you have almost no way of dealing with it short of flashing away and praying. So do this: as you approach the bushes (following your first wave of creeps such that a stray skill shot would be blocked by the minions), try to position yourself such that you can throw a Shuriken into the bushes to hit whoever might be laying in wait. If you hear a THWACK, stay very cautiously away from the bushes until your shuriken is up, and then edge just barely into range to throw another. Repeat until the annoyed enemy has either charged out of the bush to try to kill you, in which case you should run, or they've taken too many Shuriken to the face for confrontation to be a good idea. Thundering Shuriken has a reasonably long range; utilize it.
Second Important Note:
WARDS WIN GAMES. READ IT: WARDS WIN GAMES. Kennen is squishy. I cannot stress that enough. If you go back to base at any point and have enough for a sight ward, BUY IT and place it in the bush just inside the river in whatever lane you're in. Not only will this let you see dangerous ganks coming, but if they're being ballsy and are at reasonably low health (there's no set number for this, use your judgement based on what you and your partner are capable of) and hoping to rely on a 3v2 to win it for them, you can jump them with your lane partner and score a kill before high-tailing it out of there. One more time, WARDS WIN GAMES.
With no mana holding you back and nobody having any survival-oriented items yet, you're free to pound away at whoever might be laning against you. The basic strategy in this phase is thus: last-hit with your regular attacks as much as possible to get as much gold as you can. At the same time, avoid autoattacking creeps. Autoattacking creeps leads to the lane being pushed towards the enemy heroes' tower, and that means that it will be more difficult for you to harass without being tower-pwned. Those tower shots will HURT, because Kennen has very low HP. Avoid confrontations in front of towers unless you are GUARANTEED a kill. Now, when I say "confrontation," I should clarify: you should definitely harass your enemy by trying to snipe them with a Thundering Shuriken and then backing up immediately upon throwing it so as to avoid the ire of the tower. You should NOT start wailing on the enemy heroes with your auto attacks, because that will get you dead quite quickly.
As far as harassment goes, using Kennen's Thundering Shuriken takes a small amount of getting used to. The hitbox is very small, so this is both a blessing and a curse. The good thing is that most people will over-estimate the size of its hitbox and stand behind creeps in such a way that you can easily hit the corner of their champion models. You can also sometimes manage to slip it between creeps to hit a hero behind them. Another strategy is to prey on the carelessness of an enemy hero; if they're standing behind a low HP minion, wait until just before it dies and throw a Shuriken at it in the hopes that it'll reach the minion just after it dies, passing through it to hit the hero.
As soon as you've applied a charge to an enemy hero, the real fun begins. In most cases if you apply one charge the enemy will back off slightly. It's up to you whether or not you want to mash W as soon as you see Q connect to apply the second charge, but a solid strategy is to wait several seconds before trying to get off your Electrical Surge active. By waiting, you maximize the amount of time the charges are applied, thereby giving you more opportunities to throw another Shuriken or charge up your passive for a free charge. Once you get to two charges on an enemy, they'll almost certainly be playing very defensively. Although the 3-charge stun itself doesn't deal damage, it gives you a clear opportunity to throw another Shuriken or get off a physical hit or two before they can move again. Ideally you want to stun them such that the third charge IS NOT from Thundering Shuriken. That way, when they're stunned you have a VERY easy target to which you can apply another charge and start the entire process over again! Huzzah!
Although this doesn't deal much damage in any one burst, over time it very effectively wears at their health. Successful charge harassment will almost certainly starve most melee champions of creep kills.
When it comes to hero kills, you have to be cautious. What you're able to do in lane depends largely on your lane partner. If you're laning with an Alistar, for example, stacking a charge or two on an enemy hero will make them ripe for a flash+pulverize+headbutt combo that will almost certainly guarantee you a kill or at least a blue-pill back to their base, provided you've been harassing them effectively up until then. Getting kills in-lane with Kennen largely revolves around harassing them down and then relying on synergy between you and your lane mate (or a reckless charge by them, in which case you can sometimes drop Rally and turn that fight right around on them) to get the kill. If you keep this up, ganking as needed, then in no time you'll be to...
The Roaming Phase:
Also known as the team fight phase. Basically, at this point multi-person ganks are very much commonplace, lanes are being pushed, and that nice lane dominance you once had over the two poor saps laning against you is gone. All good things must come to an end. However, this is where Kennen's play style fundamentally shifts. Now the focus has shifted from sustained harassment to disruptive burst nuking. You might be wondering what role Kennen fulfills in a team fight. He's an odd caster in that he's as squishy as any mage, but has to be right in the enemies' faces to be effective, and he's DEFINITELY not a tank.
Kennen has all of the tools necessary to engage the enemy team whenever it's most opportune. This doesn't mean stand back and wait for it to be completely safe to dive in and clean up, no, that's not his role. Playing Kennen means taking risks. He's neither an initiator nor a tank, but he IS an atomic bomb of disruptive burst hell waiting to go off. As soon as the enemy team's attention has been drawn to your initiator or tank and there's a strong (read:STRONG) probability that your team is available and ready to charge in and back you up, it is your role to get there a split second before them and blow your hot, zappy load all over the enemy team. Here is where Kennen gets to show is facerolling glory.
Here's a play-by-play of a standard Kennen initiation for me: "Okay, Alistar went in, he ate a stun, looks like they're about to converge on him." Let's say the fight is taking place in the middle of middle lane, between the first two towers. Alistar is in the middle of the lane, between the two lines of river bush. My team is converging down the lane from our tower, theirs is moving up towards ours as well. Press E, tag the nearest squishy by plowing through them and and whoever's the biggest potential danger to my team (like a Fiddle or Annie, for example) as well as everyone else along the way, and then... F(rally)RWQ as fast as I possibly can, with Q targeting my designated squishy or threatening target. If you've ever played Ryze, this is good; your face will already be somewhat molded to the QWER keys. This is keyboard facerolling at its finest. You want to blow your load and get OUT. After the initial chaos cools down (and it will only a second or two after your ult pops), you WILL get focused. Back off, flash if necessary. You'll probably have avoided the brunt of their assault if you timed your entrance well, and can resume applying charges with Shuriken and your passive charged strike while Electrical Charge activating people as appropriate.
It takes a fair amount of practice with Kennen to get a good feel for when it's appropriate to go in, and charge management in team fights is of paramount importance, but that's basically it!
Welp, that's my guide on Kennen. I'm tired of everyone epic failboating with him, as he's such a fun and rewarding hero. In my opinion he's not very underpowered, but exceedingly few people know how to play him. If anyone manages to get through this EPIC (almost five-thousand word) wall of text, I congratulate you, and wish you the best of luck!
I'll update this as I go along. Screencaps of games to come soon, if for some reason people don't believe that this works.
Thanks for reading!
One final note: Thanks to Larias, for the recommended guide format.
My brain loves this thread. Great job sir. I would agree having played alongside Kennen (and you) that AP is downright deadly. He's just too much fun in a match. We'll be in a team fight and then all of sudden we accidentlied the whole team. It's amazing how all talk is utilized at that point. Some people have such a colorful vocabulary. Our team just has to know one word. "Lol."
As with all champions though, it's not who you play its how you play them. I like how you covered tactics and the importance of wards. I haven't seen too many games with wards until recently. Now it's pretty much a habit for us, and let me tell you, it makes a difference. I hate it when the enemy team wards our jungle. Seriously, it makes the forests a scary place where an adult is needed at all times (or one Dracomage XD). =/ But it goes both ways. It's like a free Clairvoyance for the duration of the time it's active. If everyone chips in a bit, or at least the top two farmers, then there's not excuse not to be out maneuvering and ganking the other team.
Can't wait to read some of the other remarks on the guide. Again, great job =]
I think we can come to a consensus on kennen being the 2nd 3rd person to come into a team fight strategically. It really makes the most sense and has worked for me as well. On another note he is a great cleanup character as well. Like say your team just held off the other team from taking the mid turret just outside your base and you charge out from the bot jungle stun and kill most of the weakened enemy team with your team close to back you up. Really good at pushing that standoff out.
Edit: While haunting guise may not be great lifesteal for AoE spells it does wonders with his shuriken keeping him alive in a 1v1 fight against a carry or dps. I also like the very fast pace kennen seems to play at. Sometimes almost feel like I am playing a fighting game.
I play Kennen sort of similar.. Only difference is i have hp/level runes for seals.. All magic pen marks/quints, CD/level glyphs, and i use ghost instead of rally.
I run a 9/21/0 mastery build and skip leviathan. Build order is a little different. I start with ruby crystal and have ~750 hp at lvl 1 which makes soloing a breeze.
Haunting guise
proper boots(been tabi mostly lately against a lot of carry heavy teams)
giants belt - Rylais
Zhonya's ring
any time i have an extra 300 gold after i buy i will get a brilliance potion
and any game longer than that i base my last item off how well our team is doing. If I'm getting focused i will get a guardian's angel. Lots of stuns or spells i will get a banshee's( i know mana ewww) or if i'm just rolling face and rich i will buy a void staff.
i haven't been able to pull this off but with Zhonya's new active I'm thinking rushing into a team fight, hit surge, ult and use Zhonya's 2 second invulnerability. 2 seconds will give your ult 4 ticks gauranteed and if they are all focusing you inside your ult you will stun 4 of them. I've tried a few times but got stunned or cc'd or just failed miserably. For all i know it could cancel your ult. Let me know if anyone has pulled it off.
i have played quite a few games with kennen and haven't had this much fun since the release of Nidalee.
I've done it 3 times since i posted that response. Zhonya's is kick ass and makes kennen a very viable initiator.
On another note. I'm not sure this build is anything like you would build a ryze.. Most ryzes i see stack the mana/AP items where on kennen you want nothing to do with them (accept maybe lichbane).
i've had a few people tell me ASP/AD kennen is the way to go. I have tried it plenty of times to see what they were talking about and the only good score i got was against a match making failure. My whole team was lvl 30 solo queues and their team had 1 lvl 30, an lvl8,14,16,22
the lvl 8 was an annie and kept trying to kill me when she was 4 levels lower than me.
In ANY regular solo queue i can't get any killing blows or any gold like a dps carry would need.
And a lot of times the enemy would get away after i got 2 stuns on him and auto attacked him for 15 seconds.
If i was AP i would just burst them down in 1 combo with my ult.
and i know... great grammar right?
This guide made me a much better player in general being a new player and all. Sincerely, thank you.
I completely disagree with maxing Q first. It's a skillshot and becomes nearly useless in creep mobs. I like to get a point in each ability at lv 3, then max R->W->E->Q.
I aprove this guide, mostly because i got owned against you stupid kennen. GJ!!!!
Woo, thanks for the responses guys, it's good to see that my wall of text could be helpful to a few people.
Besides, it's been my experience that creeps generally don't last very long at all in team fights. The only time I find myself having trouble with Shuriken around creeps is at a last-minute nexus fight; my ability to be useful significantly diminishes then. But if it's gotten to that point, it doesn't particularly matter.

World No Tobacco Day, 31 May 2010
21 May 2010 - The Ministry of Health's (MOH's) Central Health Region in Belize City declared all its health facilities smoke-free in commemoration of World No Tobacco Day (WNTD) 2010. This was made possible through the Cabinet's recent approval of the MOH's proposal to make all public places in Belize smoke-free.
Official remarks were delivered by Dr. Jorge Polanco, Deputy Director of Health Services, after which he declared the Central Health Region facilities smoke-free. A health and wellness fair then followed with various participating organizations, including the Belize Family Life Association; the National Drug Abuse Control Council; the Belize Cancer Society; and the Pan American Health Organization/World Health Organization (PAHO/WHO) displaying and highlighting the dangers of tobacco use and promoting healthy lifestyles. Schools, the media, and the general public participated in this event.
Health messages on the dangers of tobacco use were also aired on national radio during the period May 25 to June 1. Teams comprising Ministry of Health personnel, physicians, and the PAHO/WHO Tobacco Focal Point, made appearances on national radio and television programs. Two posters: "The Smoker's Body" and "Make Every Day World No Tobacco Day" were reproduced and distributed country-wide.
World No Tobacco Day 2010 focused on the harm that tobacco marketing and smoke do to women and girls and gave overdue recognition to the importance of controlling the epidemic of tobacco among women. As WHO Director-General Margaret Chan wrote in the new WHO report, Women and health: today's evidence, tomorrow's agenda, "protecting and promoting the health of women is crucial to health and development – not only for the citizens of today but also for those of future generations". The observance of WNTD also sought to make men more aware of their responsibility to avoid smoking around the women with whom they live and work.

Dr. Al-Kawas has been trained in one medical specialty.
Gastroenterology is a subspecialty of internal medicine that is focused on the diagnosis, treatment, prevention and management of disorders and diseases of the gastrointestinal tract (GI tract), digestive system and related structures. This includes the organs and structures from the mouth to the anus that are involved in the ingestion or digestion of foods, as well as those involved in the excretion of processed biological materials.
Gastroenterologists are able to treat a wide range of diseases and disorders ranging from the very common to the very rare. These may include heartburn, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), gallstones, constipation, diarrhea, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and gastrointestinal cancers, among other disorders. When diagnosing these disorders gastroenterologists rely on a variety of techniques and procedures, including colonoscopies, biopsies, esophageal dilation, endoscopies, X-rays and various other diagnostic procedures.
After a successful diagnosis of the condition or disease, gastroenterologists will personalize a treatment and management plan for each patient. For example, if a patient is diagnosed with IBS (a long term, chronic condition that causes patients to suffer recurring bouts of abdominal pain and diarrhea or constipation), the physician must tailor a treatment and management plan that is unique to the patient, based on their specific medical situation. This may include suggestions with regard to diet and exercise, the prescription of medications, and in some cases, surgery.

I was disappointed in the recliner cover
By Lynda Can
from Hiawassee, Ga
I thought I had found the answer to covering the wear on our recliner when I found your website. The coverlet is not a pretty material, very old fashioned looking fleece and was not easy to put on. Even though we are using it at this time, it comes untucked each time I sit in it and I don't particularly like the way it looks. The color, however, matched perfectly.

I think he just hates me
Q since when are you a AMD Hater. In the past you was the biggest AMD Fanboy in the forum and now you make a 180° turn.
I think he just hates me
Last edited by bridgman; 05-24-2012 at 02:18 PM.
clearly knows the shortcomings of development speed (which make the solution completely unattractive) (2),
and denies ANY attempt to improve the situation or withdraws himself from that (3). Huh?
How much different ideas have I thrown into Bridgeman camp? 1, 2, 3, 4? No, they are perfectly satisfied with the overall progress. At this rate R800 support will match catalyst in 2017, remember this.
Mind you, I purchased two radeon cards for sake of opensource, the second dive was better, like going from completely unusable and crashing into slow as a fck. In two years. For same gen.
Should I report that as bug? But the devs are already 101% busy, doing 1000x job which is perfect in Bridgeman's opinion. He thinks the formula is perfect, there is no need to correct anything, but I beg to differ.
Remember, no external help is appreciated.
Btw, first radeon (R100) is broken completely (KMS). I may upload errata soon, if someone cares (even for the sake of "radeon feature").
Also, compare: http://openbenchmarking.org/result/1...DU3NzA&compare
If Radeon driver Kickstarter project eventually gets rolling, that would be first ray of light.
Where does my attitude towards gfx hardware and linux differs in general from that of Bridgeman? I don't consider Linux and GNU to be "construction yard of broken parts", I consider them to be an operating system.
If the hardware is proprietary and works - fine, ok, usable.
If it is opensource and broken and company is really in to fix it, taking everything from the community, maximizing the effort - even better. How to see it? Compare the development rate and attitude.
If it is opensource and works - best case.
The case with AMD? Opensource, broken and don't bother.
The thing is, you DO NEED to pay to even test AMD driver because you need hardware. Multiply this by complete disinterest from their side and you have the idea.
Why should I pay in this case? There are a lot of broken opensource projects, whose developers do not care about it(they even state it so). For me, such project belong to trash bin.
Should I bother if help's not wanted? What J.C. said about throwing jewels in front of the pigs?
Nvidia + Linux works for me as in "fine, ok, usable", so I have no option but to tolerate it. Burnt my fingers twice already, no thanks.
The usual problem with OSS projects.How much different ideas have I thrown into Bridgeman camp? 1, 2, 3, 4? No, they are perfectly satisfied with the overall progress. At this rate R800 support will match catalyst in 2017, remember this.
Many guys have THE idea to bring the project forward, but usually those guys don't have the knowledge to implement it themself and the are angry, because their idea (beeing good or bad) isn't considered.
Right now, efforts to:
report driver usage statistic back to hardware HQ
improve the driver by means of optimization
create ANY research on buyers behaviour in linux segment
collect funds for the above
create anything centralized
have been blocked via chicken/egg problem shift or ignored.
You offer to create all this on our own, aside from AMD, perhaps we should. I don't know. But this would mean they are definitely incapable of writing their own drivers (who cares if it will work).
And we will also depend on them for hardware/documentation side, meaning they would control everything. Yet they don't step in. That's another thing, I don't understand - denial to innovate on linux side.
1. An online registration form at amd.com where users could indicate whether they used open source or Catalyst drivers, with the hope being that responses would divert funds from Catalyst to open source. My response to this, which you ignored, was that we couldn't divert funds from the Catalyst Linux driver without hurting its usefulness for it's target market (3D workstation) and so the chances of it increasing funding for in-house open source development seemed very low (the risk of it *reducing* funding seemed higher).
2. One or more kickstarter-type projects aimed at specific improvements in the open source stack, whether driver-specific or generic. My response to this was essentially "seems like a good idea" but you seemed to be suggesting that AMD had to set those projects up and I never understood your reasoning for that.
Currently the proprietary drivers (all of them AFAIK) replace a lot of the open source graphics stack with proprietary interfaces. Until similar improvements are made in the generic open source framework, which *will* take a fair amount of time and effort, there will be gaps between open source and proprietary stacks. I am agitating internally for our proprietary driver folks to help where they can by pushing enhancements into the common framework where possible, and should know the outcome in early 2013.
Last edited by bridgman; 05-24-2012 at 04:51 PM.
If you're saying "hey I posted in a forum that AMD should do all these things and one of their guys thought what they were doing today was a better use of the people they had" that's probably fair.
