The terrain and the number of hunters that are with you will determine how you carry your firearm in the field.
Provides the best control of the firearm. One hand holds the firearm's grip and the other is on the forearm of the firearm. This is sometimes referred to as the ready carry. It gives the hunter the best control of the muzzle, and the firearm can be shouldered quickly.
One hand is holding the butt of the stock, barrel resting on your shoulder and the muzzle is pointed behind you. Only use this type of carry if you are absolutely certain that no one is behind you.
Use this carry only when no one is in front of you. Grasp the stock with one hand, just in front of the action. Ensure the muzzle is pointed away and in front of you. This positions the muzzle toward the ground but does not offer good control of the firearm. Be careful that the muzzle does not hit the ground - if it does, you have to check the barrel for an obstruction.

Students who engage in bullying and cyberbullying in Maine schools face tough consequences under a new state policy released this week. Education officials developed the rule after Gov. Paul LePage and lawmakers signed off on a measure last year to prohibit such behavior. Districts must now revise their existing guidelines to bring them in line with the state. As Jay Field reports, the release of the policy caps a seven-year effort to crack down on bullying in Maine schools.
One person who's had a lot to do with helping Maine reach this point is Deb Landry. In 2005, when Landry's son was in the sixth grade in Saco, he witnessed an eighth grader physically and emotionally abusing another boy on the school bus. Landry's son told the principal about the incident. Word got back to the eighth grade bully, who began harrassing Landry's son, telling him over and over, "I'm going to get you, I'm going to find out where you live."
"He became very fearful and became depressed. He didn't want to go to school anymore," Landry says. "He would actually get off at a neighbor's house on the bus and walk through the woods and come home so that boy wouldn't know where he lived."
Landry's son ended up seeing a counselor to heal from the emotional fallout. Landry got involved in the public debate over bullying in schools. She became part of a group that drafted the state's first anti-bullying law, and she also consulted on the tougher measure passed by the Legislature last year.
"I belong to an organization that tracks all the laws across the country. They grade like a regular A, B, C. And Maine has an A minus," she says.
Maine's new statewide policy offers a more detailed list of behaviors - both physical and emotional - that could be construed as bullying. For the first time, there's a cyberbullying section devoted to defining what counts as harrassment via social media and mobile devices.
Ansley Newton just retired from her job as the bullying and harrassment prevention consultant at the Maine Department of Education. Newton, who helped develop the new policy, says it asks a lot more of teachers, principals and superintendents too.
"The current law really holds schools more accountable about how they're going to be reporting, investigating and responding to bullying," she says.
Principals and superintendents must investigate incidents promptly under the new policy. They're required to come up with a system of graduated discipline for punishing infractions. Newton says they're also expected to communicate regularly with the parents of targeted students and report any bullying that crosses the line into illegal behavior to law enforcement.
"I think that the key thing here is to really look at the climate and culture both in our schools and our communities," Newton says. "Because it's the climate and culture that really determines how successful any type of approach is going to be."
In a 2009 survey on youth health, one in five students who responded reported being victims of cyberbullying. Those numbers are consistent with national data compiled by the Cyberbullying Research Center.
One way Maine hopes to learn if it's having success changing the culture of harrasement is data collection and analysis. Under the new policy, principals and superintendents are required to keep track of incidents and report that data to the state.
The Department of Education is hoping schools across the state will follow the lead of Walter Wallace, the principal at Brunswick Junior High School. Wallace has developed an electronic system that allows teachers to quickly record incidents in three different catageories, based on their severity.
"We've been able to locate times of day that we're seeing greater incidences, we've been able to determine locations where, okay, that may be a spot where we want a little more supervision," Newton says. "It's a big step for our teachers, asking them to put together that information. But they've really stepped up and it's been helpful."
Wallace says the data has helped his school uncover some of the deeper patterns that seem to be common to most of the bullying that takes place. By next year, all educational leaders in the state will need to learn to use technology to identify the trends in their own schools.

Developing a Resume is the first step in any successful job search. The average Resume is written out of necessity: Everyone knows you have to have one to get a job.
In fact, most employers require a Resume before accepting any application, regardless of the position or its pay. You need a Resume, and you need it now. Time is of the essence in today's job market.
While hundreds of jobs come open every day, their average life span-and your window of opportunity-has now become a matter of weeks. Employers can't afford losses in productivity, so they need to fill open positions as quickly as possible.
That means opportunities can (and most certainly will) arise unexpectedly. You must be prepared for anything at any time. Having a Resume handy from the outset of a job search enables you to take advantage of what may come along the way.
When you're hunting for a job, the Resume is your introduction. An effective Resume gets employers interested in making person-to-person contact with you.
Research suggests that most Resumes are scanned very quickly - for less than a minute. Thus, the decision to interview a candidate is usually based on an overall first impression of him or her.
The Resume must clearly, concisely and strategically present your qualifications, and show how you can help employers solve the problems they currently face in their business. In short, you must prove your worth as a potential employee in order to progress to the interview stage of the job search.
Your Resume is one way of communicating the value you offer a perspective employer and of differentiating yourself from the field of job seekers.
Therefore, your Resume needs to convey three things to those who read it:
The Resume is part employability profile and part promotional device. To write effective Resumes, you must learn how to write powerful yet subtle advertising copy. You have to sell yourself.
Remember: Employers are hiring you, not a piece of paper. Think of the Resume as a personal advertisement, which promotes you and what you can do - those qualities enabling you to produce tangible results in the workplace.
This Resume-writing guide is intended to help you sort out, clarify and describe your qualifications to prospective employers. It is designed to help you think about and address employers' real needs so that you can convey to them how and why you're a truly exceptional candidate for the job.
Contact Information
(Name, Address, Phone Number, E-mail, Fax Number)
Directions: Please fill out your contact information, as you want it to appear at the header of your Resume. Look over the information you're giving carefully--every letter and digit counts!

A magnetic storm is a spatial phenomenon that posed a navigational hazard in the early days of space travel. At that time, the impulse engines were not powerful enough to resist the effects of such storms, and a ship encountering one could be swept off course.
Around 2065, an encounter with a magnetic storm swept the SS Valiant into the galactic barrier, initiating a series of events that led to her destruction. (TOS: "Where No Man Has Gone Before")
Magnetic storms can also occur on the surface of some planets. On Rigel XII, they are accompanied by or cause extremely powerful sandstorms. Such a storm nearly claimed the life of Eve McHuron in 2266; only lithium miner Ben Childress' determined search located her. (TOS: "Mudd's Women")
In 2267, the USS Enterprise encountered a magnetic storm at the Halkan homeworld, while James Kirk and his landing party were on the surface conducting negotiations. The storm was reported by Spock to be a "standard ion type, but quite violent and unpredictable." During the beam up to the ship, interference caused by transporting through a magnetic storm caused the crew to transport to an alternate mirror universe. (TOS: "Mirror, Mirror")
In 2268, the Providers wanted to make the crew of the Enterprise thralls on Triskelion destroy the ship, and let its destruction appear as being caused by a magnetic storm. (TOS: "The Gamesters of Triskelion")
While attempting to extract their personnel from the Mokra homeworld in 2372, the USS Voyager hid within a large magnetic storm over the planet's northern magnetic pole to avoid the Mokra's phased ion cannons. (VOY: "Resistance")
In 2373, the shuttlecraft Sacajawea crashed due to a magnetic storm, while attempting to collect nitrogenase compound. Captain Kathryn Janeway was severely injured. (VOY: "Coda")

The video of the surface of the Moon was recorded by cameras on the Ebb spacecraft three days before it was intentionally crashed into a lunar mountain on December 17.
As part of the GRAIL mission (Gravity Recovery and Interior Laboratory), which was launched in 2011, spacecrafts Ebb and Flow had the task of orbiting the moon at an altitude of 34 miles and helping researchers find out more about the moon's gravity.
The first clip in the video is made up of 931 frames, taken from Ebb's forward-facing camera. The second clip is comprised of 1498 frames and is taken from its rear camera.

The unemployment statistics released by the Labour and Employment ministry on Tuesday speak loudly about the need for the country to put more efforts into getting more people to work.
Erick Shitindi Permanent Secretary in the ministry said a survey in 2010 put the number of unemployed people at 2.7 million against the overall population of 43,187 million.
While noting that the number of Tanzanians employed in formal sector stands at 19.9 million, 8.580 million of them young men and women, he also acknowledged that rural-urban immigration among the youth, partly contributed to increased unemployment in the country.
He admitted that the ministry faced a big challenge in coming up with specific programmes to increase employment among the people.
The issue of employment touches directly on the livelihoods of people and the prosperity of the nation.
The fewer the people engaged in economically productive work, the more dependent the nation becomes handouts to run its affairs. In our situation, it is generally assumed that a working father or mother has on average between five and seven people depending on that income.
When applied to the 2.7 million unemployed people, and knowing our extended family syndrome, it means there could easily be around 19 million people without reliable income support.
This is especially serious when it is borne in mind that the country does not have a developed social security network to offer relief to the jobless.
At another level, the situation means that the government cannot collect income tax from the 2.7 million people for they have no assured income. If they all had work and were paying income tax of say 1,000/- per month for example, the government could easily realise an extra 32.4bn/- in revenues annually; not a small sum by any standards.
More revenue could of course be realised through the multiplier effect of the production activities and purchasing power of the 2.7 million people.
While it is a daydream in our situation to expect the government to find jobs for the 2.7 million people, the issue needs serious action oriented solution.
What is needed is a campaign to change mindsets about unemployment.
The call by the Public Accounts Committee on the government to work out alternative mechanisms to check rampant unemployment and to enable Tanzanians secure jobs or employ themselves after completing school is thus timely.
The strategy must go beyond the traditional concept of job creation.
For many of the seekers, jobs are mainly in urban areas and mostly found in offices and factories. Of course we do not blame those who hold this concept, for that is how it has been inculcated in them in schools and most training institutions. The rural-urban migration also gives leverage to the notion that jobs for the educated are to be found in urban areas.
While it is true that these areas need workers, they are not the only openings to engage in income generating activity. We believe more could be done, if all the organisations touting empowerment programmes in the country came together and put together a more holistic and obviously resource-efficient strategy to enable more people engage in productive activity. Maybe the Labour and Employment ministry could spearhead the forum.

Looking good so far.
Here is a commission that I am currently working on with a deadline quickly approaching. I am really experimenting a lot and working outside of my comfort zone and could really use some feedback.
Thanks much. :-)

I like the individual elements, but I'm not entirely sure if the mountains and forests play nicely together, but by the time you are finished they might.. The mountains are more artsy (for lack of a better term) while the forests are more straight forward traditional fantasy map styling. In fact the right side of the mountains appear more impressionistic/pastel/watercolor while the left side has more characteristics of line art... which could well just be a part of being a WIP, LOL. Perhaps some gaps in the forest would also be nice, just little glimpses of forest floor to break the monotony of the carpet. But that is just a nit.
Hopefully any of that will inspire something! LOL. Love the figure in the corner by the way. Look forward to seeing more of this map.
Upon the Creation of the World the First Dragons cast their seed in the light of a Sun and a Thousand Suns, beneath the Moon and a Thousand Moons, on a World and a Thousand Worlds.
Got quite a bit more done on this...once I added the other figure in the lower corner it helped to pull it together a bit.

I actually like the forests and mountains together, the colors are quite attractive. The dark angels (angels of death) are an interesting addition. I'd have to know more about the context to know how appropriate they are to the map. One thing that does bug me is the tile border. First, it doesn't really seem to fit with either the parchment, or the painterly aspects of the map. Beyond feeling a bit incongruous, it also appears (when zoomed in) a bit fuzzy and unclear in comparison with the rest of the map. Overall I find it a bit distracting. Otherwise, nice job.
Hey, a fairly common complaint with similar styles is that the mountains and trees are too close in size. Nobody can say that about this map. I'd say the border "doesn't fit" in the sense that real world cultural history has the border suggest the ancient world, while the map - especially with the figures there - suggests a more medieval setting. There's really nothing that would prevent this from all being an accepted style in a single culture in a fantasy setting, however.
Having the mountains more complete helped with the neighboring forest. Looking good to me.
Upon the Creation of the World the First Dragons cast their seed in the light of a Sun and a Thousand Suns, beneath the Moon and a Thousand Moons, on a World and a Thousand Worlds.
What a beautiful way of depicting mountains! I very much like the "sunset" colour palette you chose for this map. The figures in the corners are also great and add a lot of character to the map. The border actually doesn't bother me that much. It becomes a bit distracting only when zoomed in, when I can see the individual tiles... Then it doesn't seem to fit with the rest of your work. I'm not sure I like the forests too much. They look too flat to me. But that aside, there is nothing wrong with them, and they fit nicely with the rest of the map. I think that I just do not like this particular style for depicting large areas of forest.
Overall this looks like a great start and a beginning of an awesome map. I'm looking forward to seeing the final piece.
If I have one complaint, it's that the river(s) look too stark with just the simple black outline that you've currently got. Have you thought about adding some kind of definition to the banks, maybe something like this:
That would have been a nice touch Diamond. I was kind of already up against a deadline when I posted originally, so here is the finished map. :-)
Overall I'm pretty happy with the results. I was going for an ancient roman mosaic feel for the border and wanted the map itself to sort of have an old fresco look. It's for an ebook entitled "Twixt Heaven and Hell".
Thanks much for the feedback everyone!

Fabina Joseph has won an invitation to compete in the Slovakia Marathon due to take off at the end of next month, the Athletics Tanzania (AT) secretary general, Suleiman Nyambui, said
The AT official said the Slovakia event will be used for London Olympic Games qualification as well.
He said Joseph left the country yesterday for Poland half marathon.
Nyambui said the Poland half marathon will help the athlete to prepare for the Slovakia Marathon and other international shows.
The Tanzania Olympic Committee (TOC) has been behind Joseph's European trips for the marathon events.
He said Joseph is among the domestic athletes who have been undergoing training at the Filbert Bayi Secondary School in Kibaha to prepare for the London Games.
AT appointed Joseph based on his potential for possible attempt to win the London Olympics qualifying time.
Lack of funds has been a stumbling block for the AT that would have wished to send more athletes to run in Slovakia and elsewhere.
"We have come into decision to pick Joseph because we could not have managed to send many athletes to the Slovakia Marathon due to financial limitations. Joseph has been a top performer among the rest as we thrust our hopes on him to meet London Games qualifying marks," he said.

Sharing the tragic news that Linda St. Martin passed away at 9:30 this morning from complications due to chemotherapy....i would appreciate everyone taking a moment to reflect on Linda in honor of her body of work, passion, and commitment in service to the Sierra Club and the Gulf Community as a whole.
This is indeed a very sad day for all who knew and loved Linda, a passionate, tireless crusader for the environment and justice for those who had no voice.....
I have been blessed to have had Linda as a friend and campaigner through the plethora of issues we engaged in over the years...may she enjoy the divine rewards so rightfully bestowed upon her for a life well lived....

"Never let injustice shut you up. When you see injustice you must stand up. It's going to hurt sometimes. It's going to cost you something. But you can never, never allow injustice in your presence and sit silently by and let it happen. You cannot do that." – Gulf resident Linda St. Martin from Stories from the Gulf.

Linda came to us with organizing skills and a love for people. She worked tirelessly for a better environment and a better world. She enhanced our meetings, met those we didn't know and made them feel a part of our group. To say she will be sorely missed is an understatement. More appropriate is to wonder how we will manage at all without her. She has gone to a better place and left us behind in a better place for having fought so hard to make it better.

Linda St. Martin supported my son, Michael, and I throughout this fight to stop the lignite plant being built here in Kemper County, MS. She was always ready to step up to the plate! She taught me to "speak up" my feelings against what was not right. She spent many nights with me and I am going to miss saying to her "your room is ready". A terrible personal loss for me. May she rest in peace.

Linda approached her life and her purpose on this Earth with a responsibility that we should take to heart -- To take care of one another, our community, our Gulf, and ourselves.
Regardless of whether someone was a friend or a complete stranger, she treated everyone equally with love, compassion, and offered the best of herself while not asking or expecting anything in return. She was and will forever be a hero to many, myself included, and terribly missed.

From a conservative Republican, I can tell when one is a "real person & passionate in their belief" and Linda passed all the tests. On her dedication to many causes, there was never a "personal upside" as in the case of many others; however, she sailed straight the course and we are all the better for her efforts. May God bless her in eternity and all who labor for the many causes she cherished.

(WBIR - Knoxville) Robert Sharp grew up in landlocked East Tennessee but spent his late teens and twenties aboard ship making trips back and forth across the Atlantic to resupply U.S. troops in Europe.
"I loved the sea, loved the water," said Mr. Sharp.
It wasn't until seven decades after his service that he learned the four year stint he spent in the Merchant Marines qualified him as a veteran.
"It was a big surprise, something I didn't feel like I deserved," said Mr. Sharp.
The civilian group of seamen fell under Navy control during the war. But thousands of those seamen sailed into hostile waters unarmed. And Merchant Marines in World War II ended up with a higher percentage of men killed than any other branch of service.
In addition to the on-camera interview Mr. Sharp agreed to answer the following 10 questions about the impact his role as a Merchant Marine had on the rest of his life. Later in life he worked as a farmer and livestock dealer in addition to dabbling in real estate. The last time he was aboard a ship was 1949.
1. What one person influenced you most in life?
I guess my father. I just honored everything he did. He taught me farming and dealing with livestock.
2. Do you feel honored and respected for serving your country?
Yes I do.
3. How can people thank you for your service?
They don't need to. It was honor for me to do it.
4. How do you honor your fellow service men and women?
I try to support them every way that I can.
5. How do you think this generation of military men and women is different or similar to yours?
In general the younger generation may not realize the importance of the military. Vietnam and the Korean War didn't get the respect they deserve. That could be part of it.
6. What influence did your in the Merchant Marines have on the rest of your life?
It may have made me a little more independent. I'm sure I had more respect for the military.
7. Does your family have a history of military service?
Yes. My brother and uncle served in the Navy. One brother in the Air Force and another brother in the Army.
8. Would you encourage younger generations in your family to join the service?
I believe it would be a great thing if we all had to serve two years in some branch of the military. I think it maybe would help the next generation.
9. Has your service changed your opinion of war?
It makes you appreciate the freedom and the liberty that we have. There is no other country like it and we are the greatest country there is.
10. Did your military experience shape your religious faith?
I'd say it did. I've got more respect for Christian people. I've got more respect for the liberty of the system of government and the freedom of religion.

A former Pender County Sheriff's Office captain has to give up his badge after he was found guilty of a sex crime charge.
Mark Sloan was convicted of crimes against nature, but was found not guilty of soliciting a prostitute during his Thursday court appearance.
Officers stopped Sloan earlier this year for a traffic signal violation. According to police, a man was in the car with Sloan. Officials charged Sloan with soliciting prostitution and crimes against nature.
Sloan received a 10 day suspended sentence and must serve 18 months of supervised probation.
Previous Story
A former Pender County Sheriff's Office captain is scheduled to appear in court Thursday on prostitution charges.
The sheriff's office dismissed Mark Sloan after his June arrest in Wilmington. Sloan was a 24 year law enforcement veteran.
Wilmington Police pulled him over for a traffic signal violation, but the officer discovered he was not alone in the car. Sloan was charged with soliciting prostitution and crimes against nature.
Previous Story
Lawmen arrested a Pender County Sheriff's Office captain at a routine traffic stop in Wilmington for prostitution, according to a local newspaper.
The Carteret News Times reports Wilmington authorities charged Mark Sloan with two counts of prostitution, after the stop around midnight Wednesday.
The report indicates Sloan was released from jail on $5,000 bond. There is no word on what led to Sloan's arrest on prostitution charges.

It's not a junk food watch-anytime anime, but it's very rewarding to watch, especially if you like thriller mystery stories. I think most anime fans probably don't have the attention span for something like Monster, but if you're looking for a show with nuanced characters and a compelling story about difficult moral choices then definitely go for it!

When members of the public see hunters behaving in an unethical or offensive manner that reflects badly on everyone who engages in this sport. Ethical and safe hunters understand that our behavior sets us apart from non-ethical hunters.
The way we dress and act is important. You would not go into a store or a restaurant with dirt and blood all over your clothes. Ethical hunters bring an extra set of clothes with them, so if they need to go to town or to a public place, they will not offend others. Ethical hunters do not drive around with game tied on the hood of their vehicle.
The way we talk is important. When we are in public, we have to be careful not to say or relate stories in a manner that might offend the public. Using words and phrases to describe an exciting story of a hunt might be acceptable in the hunting camp, but when you are out in public it might be offensive. Using the word "harvest" instead of "kill" is a good example how to take others into consideration when in public. Safe and ethical hunters have to always act in a safe and responsible manner while out in public as well as while hunting. We must also be aware of the unethical display of slogans on t-shirts, clothing or bumper stickers, such as; "If It Flies, It Dies!" or "Happiness Is a Gut Pile!"
After reading this chapter on attitudes and behaviors, reconsider the scenario about hunting on your friend's property.
Would you have shot the wild boar that was walking towards the fence line?
Your behavior and the future of hunting depend on whether you measure up to being an ethical and safe hunter.
How do you measure up?

Immigration bill stalls in Senate
WASHINGTON - Senate leaders and supporters of a bipartisan compromise promised late Thursday that hey would not let the failure of a procedural vote kill a bill that would represent the most sweeping change in immigration policy in more than two decades.
The Senate voted 50-45 not to stop debate on the measure, which would strengthen security at the nation's borders, create a temporary worker program and put in place a plan to legalize an estimated 12 million undocumented immigrants. It was the second time Thursday that the Senate did not muster the 60 votes needed to bring debate on the bill to a close.
While Majority Leader Harry Reid pulled the bill off the floor immediately after the vote, he struck a conciliatory tone and said the immigration measure is not dead.
"This has been a very difficult time, Reid said to a hushed chamber. "But there's no reason to be upset. I think we have to look towards passing this bill." Reid said he hopes the two sides can come together "in the next several weeks.''
Reid reiterated a phrase he had used throughout the day: "This is the president's bill,'' he said, insisting the White House needs to help bring this bill to a final vote. In fact, two Bush cabinet secretaries - Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff and Commerce Secretary Carlos Gutierrez - manned the phones all day, urging lawmakers not to give up on the measure. And both were in the Capitol Thursday evening as the votes were cast.
After two straight weeks of debate on the measure, there will be questions about whether lawmakers still have the will to continue slogging through more amendments. It's unclear whether more time will yield a different result than what happened on Thursday.
Sen. Edward Kennedy, who has been crusading for immigration reform for decades, refused to be deterred.
"The vote was obviously a big disappointment, but it makes no sense to fold our tent, and I certainly don't intend to,'' Kennedy, D-Mass., said on the floor. His son, Rep. Patrick Kennedy, sat behind him as he spoke. "Failure is not an option,'' Kennedy said.
Senators spent the day trying to reach an agreement on how to proceed on the bill. Those lawmakers who oppose the measure because they said it was amnesty, successfully blocked votes on amendments by refusing to agree to how much time should be spent debating them. Such parliamentary tactics, particularly by Sen. Jeff Sessions, R-Ala., will likely be hailed by those who oppose this measure.
"There are a lot of problems with the legislation itself," Sessions said on the floor after the vote. "In my opinion, after studying the bill at great length, I don't believe it would have worked any better than the bill in 1986," he added, referring to the 1986 amnesty.
California's two Democratic senators - who voted on opposites sides Thursday - sat together looking glum as Reid and Minority Leader Mitch McConnell sniped at each other over who wouldn't agree with whom on how many amendments to vote on before the immigration bill got a final vote.
Sen. Dianne Feinstein, one of a dozen senators on both sides of the aisle who helped craft the compromise, voted to end debate. But Sen. Barbara Boxer, who adamantly opposes the temporary worker plan in the measure and believes more work needs to be done of the bill, voted no.
"For me this has been a very sad day," Feinstein said on the floor. She was one of a few members of the bipartisan coalition who spoke after the vote. "I hoped the outcome would be very different. Those of us that looked at the comprehensive picture (and) struggled between a Democratic ideology and a Republican ideology … found that indeed it was a difficult task." But, she said, "I don't think we should give up." She suggested that lawmakers may have to scale back the comprehensive nature of the measure before them."We have a failing system out there,'' Feinstein said. "Even if it got 25 percent better it would be better than it is today."
Early in the day, Boxer had voted against the first attempt Reid made to bring an end to debate.
"This bill needs to be simplified, it needs to be clarified, it needs to be rectified before I can support it," said Boxer, D-Calif. "I don't think the bill is workable. I think it hurts American workers. The amendment process didn't make it any stronger for me.''
Boxer does support the legalization plan, particularly the agricultural worker piece and the section that allows illegal immigrant students to get legal status.

I want to focus this entry on the second of the optional questions in the demographics survey. Of the 2,000 participants who completed the survey, this question was answered by 1,530. The question was this: Since using Scarleteen, which of any of the following has changed for you, and by how much?
We saw a couple comments at the end of the survey, from statistics-focused folks, concerned that our aim was to state that whatever improvements users reported were solely because of Scarleteen. That was never the intent.
The intent in asking this questions was primarily to get a picture of what, if any, improvements relevant to what we address here our users were experiencing which may have been due to using our services or may not have been. What we most wanted to see was not the areas where we may have done a good job or where our users already felt things were going very well for them, but areas where it would seem sound to say we currently are not having the impact we'd like to with positive changes. In other words, this question seemed likely to be most useful in identifying our potential weak spots, rather than our strengths, and could give us a clearer sense on how and where we should look most to improve our content and approaches.
We also figured we couldn't expect many users to be able to identity if positive changes or a lack thereof had to do with their use of Scarleteen or not, or, if it did, only had to do with using Scarleteen. We do hear from users in direct services, in email, and did from some in comments to this survey, about how they feel Scarleteen plays or has played a part in improving certain areas of their lives. Some of the answers to this question were, indeed, reflective of some of the positive feedback we get.
At the same time, some of these changes tend to happen for some people as they move through adolescence and into adulthood, regardless. So, in the interest of intellectual honesty, as well as supporting young people's agency, we've framed this the way we did and are now because while we feel it's fair to figure that Scarleteen may have had some of the impact reflected in the answers, as these are issues we work on with and for users, but we also don't feel it is sound for us to claim a given level of authoritative ownership or influence with those changes with a survey like this.
I personally feel some the more illuminating answers, the answers most useful to us as an organization always aiming to improve how we serve our readers and users, and always needing to identify where we could do better or need to work harder, were the ones where a good deal of positive change was not reported. Some of those answers were surprising to me and to the volunteers as well: without that feedback, our awareness of these possible weaknesses would have been much more limited. (Thanks, survey participants!)
Here's that data in text, with the highest percentage of answers to each question bolded:
My relationships have improved (1,452 answers): No change, 10.4%, a little, 10.9%, some, 21.0% (305), a lot, 15.4% (223), not applicable, 42.4%. Comments reflected that many of the users answering either are not in relationships or feel their relationships are already of high quality.
I feel more able to make and respect my own best sexual choices: No change, 3.6%, a little, 9.5%, some, 22.5%, a lot, 42.8%, not applicable, 21.6%.
I practice safer sex more or more consistently: No change, 9.7%, a little, 4.7%, some, 11.1%, a lot 19.7%, not applicable, 54.8%. Again, some of this is was spoken about in comments regarding not being in relationships, or safer sex seeming to be something participants were already excellent at. However, given that we know from other data sources and one-on-one conversations with users that many people have incorrect ideas about what safer sex is and how to do it properly, and given some of the answers below reflect a good amount of respondents not doing part of safer sex at all, this answer still concerns me.
I use birth control more or more consistently: No change, 13.1%, a little, 3.3%, some, 7.4%, a lot, 17.3%, not applicable, 58.8%. See above, though also bear in mind that around half of our users are not heterosexual and many have no need for contraception when they are sexually active.
I have sought out sexual healthcare: No change, 18.7%, a little, 6.3%, some, 11.3%, a lot, 16.8%, not applicable, 46.9% . Again, some of N/A being the highest answer here is about users who have not yet had life or health experiences that facilitate a need for that care. At the same time, this is an area where we have often experiences many users clearly in need of that care who avoid it, so, this set of answers is a concern.
I have been able to ask a sexual partner to get tested: No change, 20.5%, a little, 4.2%, some, 5.2%, a lot, 9.9%, not applicable, 60.2%. While yet again, some of this may be because there has not been a partner to ask, we do often experience users who feel they don't have to ask or feel testing isn't needed when it is, so this answer also raises concern.
I have gotten tested for STIs more often (or for the first time): No change, 22.5%, a little, 3.6%, some, 6.9%, a lot, 10.6%, not applicable, 56.5%. See above.
I feel more able to set sexual limits and boundaries: No change, 7.3%, a little, 11.0%, some, 18.9%, a lot, 33.0%, not applicable, 29.8%.
I feel more comfortable talking/communicating about sex:, No change, 6.0%, a little, 9.5%, some, 19.4%, a lot, 42.2%, not applicable, 22.9%.
I have worked harder to be sure I have a partner's consent with anything sexual:, No change, 9.6%, a little, 5.4%, some, 12.4%, a lot, 25.8%, not applicable, 46.8%. Again, some of this is likely about a lack of relationships. At the same time, this answer is a concern because we find many people's ideas of when consent is needed and what doing consent well entails are often problematic or one-sided.
My confidence/assertiveness has improved:, No change, 9.8%, a little, 14.3%, some, 21.9%, a lot, 29.8%, not applicable, 24.2%.
I feel better about my sexual identity:, No change, 7.9%, a little, 9.8%, some, 19.1%, a lot, 34.7%, not applicable, 28.5%.
I feel better about my body:, No change, 10.8%, a little, 13.5%, some, 20.7%, a lot, 29.5%, not applicable, 25.5%
I have come out (w/orientation or gender identity):, No change, 17.8%, a little, 6.6%, some, 6.1%, a lot, 8.2%, not applicable, 61.3%.
I feel stronger in healing from sexual abuse or assault:, No change, 11.5%, a little, 4.0%, some, 6.1%, a lot, 8.2%, not applicable, 70.2%. While we see a high number of users who have survived sexual abuse or assault coming to us for information, help and support, the majority of our users have not been sexually abused or assaulted.
I have recognized areas in my life/relationships I could improve/ where I want to make positive changes:, No change, 8.6%, a little, 12.3%, some, 9.2%, a lot, 29.0%, not applicable, 30.9%.
If in school, my grades have improved:, No change, 22.9%, a little, 5.2%, some, 7.2%, a lot, 6.3%, not applicable, 58.4% While many of our users are still in school, our general sense is that the majority tend to already be very high-achieving.
Here's a taste of some of the comments (including a couple which support why automatically associating positive changes to use of Scarleteen would have been problematic):
So, where do we think either we're probably doing a good job for our users, or where are they are experiencing improvements already? With self-confidence issues, healthy relationships, body image and awareness, empowerment around making one's own best sexual choices, sexual communication, and sexual or gender identity. This is all great news for our users, whatever role we have played in these outcomes. We intend to keep building on these positives with our content and current approach.
Where do we think we need to work harder, rethink approaches and start trying some new ones, or create more content that addresses certain needs? While we've a great deal of content on safer sex, testing and contraception already, it seems we could stand to have more, and to try some new approaches in those departments. In those areas, it seems like we also need to be doing more to help users feel confident communicating with partners about these express issues, such as by asking for or about STI testing with partners. We've already launched the Find-a-Doc database to help users with access issues that present barriers to them in getting sexual healthcare, but we can certainly pair that with more content about why and how to seek out that care, and how to feel better about utilizing it. We already have a good deal of content on consent, but only one piece that focuses solely on consent, and it seems creating some more content to support it could benefit our users.
The really good news is that if the positives have to do at all with what we do, then we already have some excellent foundation to build on when it comes to working on what we can do to help current users improve their lives in those other areas, where positive change was less reported. For those where a lot of those things were N/A, we also have the opportunity to expand and improve our content and approach before they get to a point in their lives where these issues are something they need to address and deal with. Our goal for those users is to work on those improvements to prepare them well for those issues if and when they do become personally relevant to them.
As with the previous set of data, we're very open to your feelings, thoughts and ideas around these findings. Stay tuned for the last bit of information we have from this survey, from the general comments section, and then my overall perceptions and thoughts about the study findings, including some intersections of the data I think are important to look at.

Fresh and flavorful pasta salads, including your favorite macaroni salad recipes, are fitting side dishes for your favorite grilled entrées. But many of them can also star as main dishes for an easy summer dinner.
Farmers' Market Pasta SaladCook the pasta al dente (1 or 2 minutes shorter than package directions specify) so it holds its shape when tossed with the vegetables and vinaigrette. Ripe for riffs, the salad is also delicious with cheese-filled tortellini.
Green Bean Pasta Salad with Lemon-Thyme VinaigretteThis pasta side dish Is made with casarecce [cah-sah-RECH-ee], a pasta that looks similar to a scroll with the long sides curled inward toward the center. If you can't find casarecce, you can use penne pasta.
Broccoli, Grape, and Pasta SaladTurn your favorite broccoli salad into a pasta salad by adding chopped broccoli, grapes, pecans, and bacon to cooked pasta and tossing with a sweet and creamy mayonnaise dressing.
Penne with Green Beans and TomatoesAdd zing to your salads with fresh dill, or swap it for basil, mint, or parsley. For pasta, try using whole wheat for its earthy, toothsome quality; any kind will do.
Orzo Salad with Zucchini and FetaZucchini and feta pair well with orzo in this light summer side dish.
Cavatappi Pasta Salad with Walnut-Sage PestoA traditional pesto is made with pine nuts and basil, but this version features the more intense flavors of walnuts and fresh sage. The warm pasta is tossed with the pesto, roasted butternut squash, and arugula for a satisfying salad that can fill in as a main dish.
Artichoke and Sun-Dried Tomato Pasta SaladAll your favorite summer flavors in one bowl? Believe it! This pasta salad pairs perfectly with grilled fish or a hearty burger.
Peppery Monterey Jack Pasta SaladAcini di pepe are tiny pasta rounds resembling peppercorns. Use ditalini (very short tube-shaped macaroni) or any other small pasta shape if you can't find acini di pepe.
Greek Pasta SaladGo Greek with your pasta salad by stirring in cucumber, tomato, olives, spinach, and feta, and tossing the mixture in a tangy vinaigrette.
Eggplant Pasta SaladMake a Mediterranean pasta salad by cooking eggplant along with tomatoes and olive oil, then tossing the eggplant mixture with penne pasta, pine nuts and parsley.
Creamy Cavatappi with Edamame, Lemon, and TarragonThis hearty pasta dish will go fast at summer gatherings. We prefer Cavatappi noodles as the base, but you can substitute your favorite type.
Picnic-Perfect Tuna-and-Macaroni SaladThis colorful macaroni salad with tuna features grated carrot, chopped celery and red onion, all tossed in a creamy mayonnaise-yogurt dressing. Serve it chilled as a side salad or a main dish.
Roasted Asparagus and Tomato Penne Salad with Goat CheeseMake an upscale pasta salad that's company worthy by combining penne pasta, roasted asparagus, arugula, herbes de Provence and goat cheese and tossing with a lemony vinaigrette.
Smoked Gouda and Penne Pasta SaladYou'll need only six ingredients for this flavorful and easy pasta salad. Smoked gouda and sun-dried tomato are the keys to the salad's robust flavor.
Orecchiette with Tomatoes, Fresh Mozzarella, and BasilTaking its cue from Italy's insalata caprese, this easy dish combines fresh mozzarella cheese with basil and tomatoes.
Caesar Pasta SaladMake a creamy Caesar salad dressing and add to cooked fusilli pasta, along with tomatoes and Parmesan cheese, for a flavorful side dish pasta salad.
Macaroni Salad with Summer TomatoesWhite balsamic vinegar, tomato, and basil help this side dish maintain its fresh appeal. Click here for more macaroni salad recipes.
Green Bean and Whole-grain Penne SaladThis salad is all about contrasts in flavor and texture: chewy, nutty pasta mingled with crisp, sweet green beans and strewn with bits of crunchy bacon and creamy.
Summer Pasta Salad with Lime VinaigretteOur colorful pasta salad is so satisfying it qualifies as dinner.
Sweet Pea-and-Mint Pasta TossServe this minty side with grilled shrimp for a quick company-worthy dinner. Can't find torcetti? Use cavatappi or gemelli.
Triple-Pepper Pasta SaladThis dish is an exposition of sweet peppers. Here they're charred and pureed for a sauce, roasted and stirred into the pasta, and quick-cured for a pretty topper.
Grilled Yellow Squash and Zucchini Pasta SaladUse your bounty of summer squash to make a fresh and colorful pasta salad. The recipe calls for bowtie pasta, but you can use any shaped pasta you have on hand.
Watermelon-and-Feta Orzo SaladPunch up this classic pairing of watermelon and feta with peppery watercress or arugula.
Pesto Pasta SaladAdd bright flavor and a punch of color to the traditional pasta salad by using a simple homemade pesto. Mix the pesto ingredients in a food processor for a quick side, which only calls for three other ingredients.
Orzo with Sesame and PeasPaul Pastina was looking for something colorful and light to serve with chicken and fish when he came up with this quick dish infused with Asian flavors.
Roasted Chicken and Bow Tie Pasta SaladInstead of a mayonnaise-based dressing, this fruited pasta salad has a citrus-mustard vinaigrette. Chopped celery and toasted walnuts add crunch, and red grapes contribute just the right amount of sweetness.
Chicken-Penne Salad with Green BeansFresh green beans and roasted red peppers are the stars of this satisfying pasta salad. Because it has shredded chicken, it's certainly hearty enough for a quick weeknight meal and takes about 35 minutes to make.
Greek Pasta SaladFeature your favorite Greek flavors in this easy pasta salad: feta cheese, cucumbers, and Kalamata olives. The dressing of lemon juice, olive oil, and oregano further bring out the salad's Grecian nature, and fresh tuna makes it worthy of serving on Mount Olympus.
Tomato-and-Gorgonzola Pasta SaladWe love juicy beefsteaks for their sweet, intense flavor. Colorful small tomatoes and any crumbled cheese work well here too.
Macaroni Salad with Bacon, Peas, and Creamy Dijon DressingIt's hard to say what makes this salad so spectacular–it's either crisp bacon crumbles or the creamy dressing that's made with cream cheese, mayonnaise, and sour cream. This will be quite a crowd pleaser at your next picnic.
Tex-Mex Pasta SaladThis kid-friendly recipe is a takeoff on macaroni and cheese; it makes a large batch that holds well for two or three days. Serve with pickled jalapeño slices for grownups who like spicy food.
Tortelloni-and-Grilled Vegetable SaladThis versatile pasta pairs with any grilled vegetable, so use what you have on hand or what looks best at the farmers' market.
Garlicky Vegetable Pasta SaladAdd grilled red peppers, onions, portobello mushrooms, asparagus, feta cheese, and olives to fusilli for a hearty pasta side dish with Mediterranean flair.
Soba Noodle Salad with Pork, Snap Peas, and RadishesThis light and refreshing pasta salad is delicious and rounds out at under 200 calories.
Greek-Style Pasta SaladThis Greek-style pasta salad has a crisp and delicious flavor.
Orzo Salad with Corn, Green Beans, and TomatoesSummer vegetables shine in this easy-to-assemble pasta salad. Because you can make it ahead and let it chill, it's perfect for picnics and covered-dish suppers.
Confetti Pasta Salad with ChickenA colorful medley of chopped fresh veggies gives this creamy pasta salad both color and flavor. For a shortcut, you can use rotisserie chicken instead of simmering fresh chicken breasts. Or, stir in leftover grilled chicken.
Prosciutto and Picholine Pasta SaladIntensely-flavored Mediterranean ingredients such as olives, Dijon mustard, prosciutto and Parmesan cheese make this a memorable salad. Serve it chilled with a glass of wine.
Summer Farfalle Salad with Smoked SalmonCombine bow tie pasta with baby spinach, cheery tomatoes, and smoked salmon for a cool and classy salad that's perfect for hot summer nights.
Pizza Pasta SaladUse fresh basil and oregano from your herb garden along with sun-dried tomatoes, mozzarella, and pepperoni to create a pasta salad that's full of pizza flavors.
Spinach, Tomato, and Fresh Mozzarella Pasta Salad with Italian DressingDressed with a simple vinaigrette made from fresh herbs and a good quality extra-virgin olive oil, this pasta salad is as delicious as it is easy to prepare. The homemade Italian dressing will keep in the refrigerator for a couple of days, so consider doubling the recipe to keep some on hand.

What's better than handing the keys to your Porsche Carrera GT to your kid and having him destroy it? How about giving him this Chinese knockoff version he can wreck all day long at a fraction of the price? Brilliant! Though not cheap, with a 'buy it now' price of $80 grand, this Carrera actually started life as a Boxster, got put in the taffy puller and stretched 12 inches front and back, and then had a new body dropped on top. Keen eyes render it obvious as a poseur, but it's actually a pretty good fake. Better than most of the Fierarris we've seen, anyway.
