== Florida Honors ==

Do you think the Florida honors ought to be added to the honor counts? I automated that a little while back so that we would know how many honors are in what category without having to go in and manually count them. The new ones you have added are automatically added into those counts, so if you look, the Nature page now says it has over a hundred honors.

The front page says that the wiki includes honors adopted at the division level and higher. I don't mind including the FL honors here, because it's a good place to keep honors. In fact, I think the wiki would be a great place to develop new honors as well.

So far we have not added the FL honors to the category pages, nor to the main honor index. I'm not sure that we should just yet either, especially since this is an official NAD site, and the NAD has not approved these (though surely they must have been presented with the option?)

If we do not want the honors included in the counts, all we have to do is edit them and add "secondary=true" (not in quotes) after the honor patch in the honor_header template.

Thoughts?

--[[User:Jomegat|Jomegat]] 18:41, 7 August 2014 (EDT)

:I was not aware that only division honors and higher were adopted onto the site. I thought the wiki would be a good place to archive all requirements from around the world. I did not add the FL honors into the category pages or main index because I myself was not sure whether they should be included. I think a simple link on the main page to the FL Conference index would suffice. They would not have to necessarily be included in the main index. I honestly don't think the FL honors have to be added into the count. There are actually still a few I have not added yet. [[User:W126jep|w126jep]] 20:24, 7 August 2014 (EDT)

::That was a decision I made back in 2005 when I started the project at Wikibooks. At the time, I was just trying to bound the problem, having no idea how many honors might be out there below the division level. I think it's great to have them here. What do you think of having a single index page for all honors adopted below the division level? We could have icons to indicate where they originated and just lump them all into one place, and then throw a link on the main page to that index. We could also put "Florida Conference" in the honor_header template to show the originating institution. That would automatically categorize them.

::To be honest, I think it would be good to have them in the index on the main page, but I don't know that the NAD committees would accept that. --[[User:Jomegat|Jomegat]] 23:57, 7 August 2014 (EDT)

:::I think you might be onto something there. The more I think about it, the more it makes sense to include them on the main index; of course, if the committee agrees. It would be ideal to have an index page with honors at conference levels. From what I've researched, only the FL Conference has a large selection of conference level honors. Other conferences might have one or two, but not as many as FL approved. It would still be nice to include them here in the wiki and it would be a great place to pilot them division or worldwide. It would be an easy way to present to the GC and pend approval. [[User:W126jep|w126jep]] 00:12, 8 August 2014 (EDT)
::::I have created a tiny icon for Florida. I know that there will be a couple of conference-level honors being taught at Oshkosh next week. I'll try to snag their requirements and we can get them in the wiki as well. Maybe we should use something other than the FL_tiny icon for Florida - perhaps the Conference patch? It wouldn't scale down of course, but maybe that would be OK. The reason I suggest that is because though Florida's shape is obvious, other multi-state conferences will not be. --[[User:Jomegat|Jomegat]] 00:33, 8 August 2014 (EDT)
:::::Maybe something more like this: [[File:Map of USA highlighting Illinois.png|thumb|40px]] --[[User:Jomegat|Jomegat]] 00:39, 8 August 2014 (EDT)
{{clear}}

::::I will be at Oshkosh also and try to snag some pictures of any new honor insignias. I have already compiled a personal list so I can know which ones I need to go check out. I will also try to record the requirements. Hopefully we can return from the trip with much to add to the wiki.

::::I see your point with the image. I'm not sure that last image works well for the different conference honors. Conference patches would be an excellent choice, but I don't know if we could find images for all of them. I'll ruminate and see if I can find or think up of any possible ideas. [[User:W126jep|w126jep]] 00:53, 8 August 2014 (EDT)
:::::Let me create one before we try to evaluate it. The basic idea is to show the states in the conference with enough context that we know what we're looking at. We might also try using a different color for conferences vs divisions. As for conference patches, we'd only need images for the conferences that have honors. I'm guessing that reduces the scope of the problem considerably. Please continue to ruminate!
:::::If you want to meet up while at Oshkosh, send a note to me at jomegat@ my domain name which is jomegat.com. Then I'll email my phone number and we can arrange a meeting via text or voice. --[[User:Jomegat|Jomegat]] 12:02, 8 August 2014 (EDT)

::::::How about just putting the word "LOCAL" (as a graphic) instead of a map icon. If we are going to add in the FL Honors we should put a standard section at the bottom of the honor page that says: "Important Note: To obtain this honor patch contact the Florida Conference at http://www.flpathfinderstore.com/" Is CB Radio a FL or GC honor? [[User:JadeDragon|JadeDragon]] 00:45, 19 September 2014 (EDT)

:::::I think that sounds like an excellent idea. Also, CB Radio is not FL Conf., SPD & SAD honor manuals list it as GC. --[[User:W126jep|w126jep]] 07:10, 19 September 2014 (EDT)
:::::I like the revision you did on the main page, right on the money. Also, when do you sleep? You're a machine! --[[User:W126jep|w126jep]] 07:26, 19 September 2014 (EDT)

== honor_desc ==

Thanks for repairing the damage. The 'bot instructions for the insignia field were the most difficult, and it's obvious I missed something! --[[User:Jomegat|Jomegat]] 13:27, 11 September 2014 (EDT)

== honor_desc_es ==

When translating the honor_desc template, it might be better to leave the variable names alone (those are the words in triple curly braces, like <nowiki>{{{honorname}}}</nowiki>. When the page is viewed, the variable names should not appear at all. When a page is translated, the variable names will still appear in English, but the translator presumably knows English, so that should be OK? However, it is indeed a good idea to translate the stuff that's not in curly braces.

We should expect find find plenty of problems with the templates... --[[User:Jomegat|Jomegat]] ([[User talk:Jomegat|talk]]) 20:01, 2 October 2014 (EDT)

:Gotcha. That way it would still show up in the correct categorical pages. This is my first time really experimenting with wiki language and tags, so I'm just trying to get the hang of it. --[[User:W126jep|w126jep]] ([[User talk:W126jep|talk]]) 20:53, 2 October 2014 (EDT)
::That's about the best way to learn. If you have questions, don't hesitate to ask. --[[User:Jomegat|Jomegat]] ([[User talk:Jomegat|talk]]) 21:05, 2 October 2014 (EDT)
:::I'm just trying to figure out now how to translate the part in the "Honors Sequels" that collapses and says "prerequisites". --[[User:W126jep|w126jep]] ([[User talk:W126jep|talk]]) 21:15, 2 October 2014 (EDT)

==Transcluded Templates==

So I'm stuck on two things really. In order for me to translate, I have to "mark" it as ready to translate. I have tried everything I know to do so but transcluded templates, such as the AY Master, do not show up in the editing portion and I have no way to mark it for translation. Secondly, the SUBPAGENAME does not properly display the page name, since it puts "es", the language extension that is at the end of the page name. I can edit and translate the page names but the SUBPAGENAME tag will refer to the original source and put the English name. I'm trying to figure out how to make that work.<br>
Besides that, the rest is a breeze. It's pretty straightforward, just mark and translate. As soon as I know how to fix these two issues, I'll be able to start on the actual honors.<br>
I am assuming that the IA classwork will also be translated. The NAD has official requirements in Spanish and French, and I don't see any reason to only translate the honors and not the classwork. --[[User:W126jep|w126jep]] ([[User talk:W126jep|talk]]) 02:51, 3 October 2014 (EDT)

:Do you have to translate all the answers or are they machine translated and you need to fix them? When we add an answer in English does it have to be manually copied to the other languages? [[User:JadeDragon|JadeDragon]] ([[User talk:JadeDragon|talk]]) 05:42, 3 October 2014 (EDT)

::There is no machine-translation - it all has to be done by humans When we make a change to an English page that has already been translated, it marks the section that changed as needing re-translation. It does slice the content into smallish chunks though, so when a change is made to the source material, only a small piece of the translated material should need to be updated.
::As for SUBPAGENAME, yeah. That's what drove honor_desc over honor_header. We need to quit using SUBPAGENAME, or find one that recognizes "oh hey, that's the language, not the subpage" and reacts accordingly. Maybe there's an extension for that. I will dig into the transcluded templates when I can (but need to work on the day job right now). --[[User:Jomegat|Jomegat]] ([[User talk:Jomegat|talk]]) 10:34, 3 October 2014 (EDT)
:::OK, I might have a fix in place for the SUBPAGENAME problem. Instead of using <nowiki>{{SUBPAGENAME}}</nowiki>, we should use <nowiki>{{#titleparts:{{FULLPAGENAME}}|1|3}}</nowiki>. The "1" means show one element of the title, and the "3" means show the third element. This assumes that we are working with the 3-tiered hierarchy. I already tried this on the [[Template:AY Master/es]], and it seems to maybe work? Let me know! If so, all we need to do is find every place that uses subpagename. --[[User:Jomegat|Jomegat]] ([[User talk:Jomegat|talk]]) 18:32, 3 October 2014 (EDT)
:We might also want to look at this: [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Template:Translatable_template]. --[[User:Jomegat|Jomegat]] ([[User talk:Jomegat|talk]]) 19:14, 3 October 2014 (EDT)
::There's going to be a lot more work involved in getting the Translatable template things to work. I'll work on it as time allows. --[[User:Jomegat|Jomegat]] ([[User talk:Jomegat|talk]]) 20:52, 3 October 2014 (EDT)

:::Praise God, I was able to figure out how to translate the transcluded template for AY Master/es. The coding was in the honor_desc/es template the whole time! I just had to fix the code there and voilá, it is set up for Spanish.<br /><br />I'm still trying to figure out how to include the correct Spanish name in the AY Master/es. I realize now (probably because I'm getting more familiar with wiki coding) that no template based on page name will ever work, such as the basenamepage or subpagename. This is because the actual page title will never be in Spanish, since only a language code extension is added (such as /es). I'm trying to learn how to instead include either:
:::* the <nowiki>{{{honorname}}}</nowiki> from the honor_desc/es template into the AY Master/es template or
:::* the name of the honor from the translated page title
:::Any suggestions?
Templates come with two types of parameters (or arguments as they are called in software engineering). The first type is positional, such as {{{2}}}, which means "the second argument". The other type is a "named argument", such as {{{honorname}}}. It is a Bad Idea to mix the two in a template. Positional arguments are easier to use for simple things, and they are more compact. But when we start to want to add optional arguments, or there are a lot of them, it begins to get more difficult. You then have to remember that the second argument meant "introduction year", etc, and you can't have new required arguments following an optional argument. So I generally prefer named arguments. The AY Master template takes one or two arguments, and uses the now-discredited <nowiki>{{SUBPAGENAME}}</nowiki> variable. We could try using <nowiki>{{#titleparts:{{PAGENAME}}|1|3}}</nowiki> instead of <nowiki>{{SUBPAGENAME}}</nowiki>, or we could change the template to take three named arguments and always pass them in. I still haven't figured out what titleparts will do with a translated page - it probably takes an English name. This means we'll need to rewrite the AY Master template and then robotically replace it wherever it is used. That is what I did when we moved from honor_header to honor_desc. I renamed it so that both could exist at the same time while the robot made the edits, otherwise it would have been broken during the transition. So if you like, I could take a crack at creating a new AY_Master (Honor_Master|honorname|mastername|core_vs_optional?) and then coaxing the robot into making the replacements. --[[User:Jomegat|Jomegat]] ([[User talk:Jomegat|talk]]) 18:32, 13 October 2014 (EDT)
:Please do! I'm just trying things here and there to see if anything makes a difference. I don't really know what kinds of repercussions my edits will have, even though I'm just trying to test different things. If it's not too much trouble to rewrite the AY Master template, and if a robot can do most of the work, I think that would be ideal. -- [[User:W126jep|w126jep]] ([[User talk:W126jep|talk]]) 18:39, 13 October 2014 (EDT)
::It's underway now. The template is "Honor Master", and I am making a few test runs with the 'bot. --[[User:Jomegat|Jomegat]] ([[User talk:Jomegat|talk]]) 18:53, 13 October 2014 (EDT)
:::Is there a way to use the "Page Display Title" instead of the SubPageName? Or would it create some kind of never-ending mess of a loop? -- [[User:W126jep|w126jep]] ([[User talk:W126jep|talk]]) 19:01, 13 October 2014 (EDT)
::::I'm having a hard time finding info about "Page Display Title" - I found stuff on plain old "Display Title", but it has been deprecated and is fraught with peril. Is that the same thing, or did you find something else? --[[User:Jomegat|Jomegat]] ([[User talk:Jomegat|talk]]) 19:20, 13 October 2014 (EDT)
:::::"Display Title" I believe is the function to change the way a title is displayed on the page. What I would like to know and find is if it is possible to use within the parameters the title that is <i>displayed</i>, instead of the actual page name. If there is some line of code or tag or template that references or uses the displayed title, that could be used instead of the actual page name.<br />
I don't find any information that something like that exists, and maybe it's just idealistic, but it sure would make it easier.
::::::I don't think it can be used that way. I'm sure someone could write an extension to do that, but that's not a small task. --[[User:Jomegat|Jomegat]] ([[User talk:Jomegat|talk]]) 19:33, 13 October 2014 (EDT)
:The new template worked like a charm. Thanks! I'm wondering if there are any other templates that are similar and will have to be redone as well ... --[[User:W126jep|w126jep]] ([[User talk:W126jep|talk]]) 12:55, 14 October 2014 (EDT)
::There are a few more. I searched for SUBPAGENAME, then clicked the "advanced" search button and limited it to templates. There aren't that many: [[Template:Honor variants]] is one. The rest will just miscategorize the honor. Not that we want that, but it's a lower priority problem. --[[User:Jomegat|Jomegat]] ([[User talk:Jomegat|talk]]) 14:58, 14 October 2014 (EDT)

==Translated Advanced Level==

So here's another nice little challenge: How do I link the Advanced option within the honor_desc/es template? I mean, how do I show the honor has an advanced level also? As is written now in the English template, the code looks to see if there is an advanced level of the honor by checking for page titles that have the "category" and "honorname" input into the template. The problem in other languages is that in the template, the translated name is used for the "category" and "honorname"; and there exist no such pages with those parameters in their titles, since the language extension is simply added at the end of the English page title.<br /> <br />Any ideas or suggestions on how to link basic honor levels to advanced levels in other languages? How can I get the "ifexist" function to search for advanced honor levels in different languages?

:I've been giving some thought to that. I think we'll have to use the #titleparts function to grab the first three elements of the title, tack on " - Advanced", and see if that exists in English. If it does, then there is an advanced version of the honor, whether it has been translated or not. Linking to it could be another issue. Maybe if we appended "/#language" to the English name of the honor we'd have a link, and then we'd need a translated name to appear. I'll play around with it some and see what I can do. --[[User:Jomegat|Jomegat]] ([[User talk:Jomegat|talk]]) 20:51, 14 October 2014 (EDT)
::Have you had any luck using <nowiki>[[Special:MyLanguage/pagename in English|pagename in Spanish]]</nowiki>? I've been trying it out on the wiki on my laptop with no luck. It seems promising, as it would fix the links to the advanced honors as well as the honor's category. [[User:Jomegat|Jomegat]] ([[User talk:Jomegat|talk]]) 22:36, 14 October 2014 (EDT)
:::I have heard of it. I'll see what I can find. --[[User:W126jep|w126jep]] ([[User talk:W126jep|talk]]) 22:57, 14 October 2014 (EDT)

::::OK, maybe it works? I changed [[Template:Honor desc/es]], and now if I set my preferred language to Spanish and click the "Avanzado" link, it takes me to the advanced page in Spanish. If I click it while using English as my preferred language, it takes me to the English version. I also changed the link to the honor category. The MyLanguage feature will default back to English if the page has not been translated. Let me know if this is a workable solution or if you see problems with it. If it works OK, then next up... [[Template:ay prerequisite]]. --[[User:Jomegat|Jomegat]] ([[User talk:Jomegat|talk]]) 23:00, 14 October 2014 (EDT)

:::::It seems to do the trick. Only that the advanced link takes me to the English version of the honor. The only honor I've translated so far with an advanced level is Adventurer for Christ. And yes, I was about to mention the AY Prerequisite Template, I was trying to figure that one out as well. --[[User:W126jep|w126jep]] ([[User talk:W126jep|talk]]) 23:08, 14 October 2014 (EDT)
Did you try it with your preferred language set to Spanish? I don't think it cares where you are when you click the link - it only cares what language you have selected up at the top of the page (or in your user preferences). I know that's not ideal, but... it might be the best we can do? --[[User:Jomegat|Jomegat]] ([[User talk:Jomegat|talk]]) 23:10, 14 October 2014 (EDT)
::::::It does work with the preferred language. It's not really the ideal, is there a way we can get it to link to the PageName/es?

I made an attempt. With this change, it will take you to "AYHAB/cat/honor - Advanced/es". The link to the category is red now because there is no translation for that page yet. Is this preferable? --[[User:Jomegat|Jomegat]] ([[User talk:Jomegat|talk]]) 23:41, 14 October 2014 (EDT)
:It worked beautifully! I checked it out with "Adventurer for Christ"; it links directly to the advanced level in Spanish. Thanks for taking the time to help me figure these things out, I really do appreciate it. Two templates I'm also trying to work on are [[Template:ay prerequisite/es]] and [[Template:See also/es]]. I haven't really looked at what you did yet with the honor_desc to see if I can figure it out for the other templates, but I'll check it out later. I have a 3-month-old that refuses to sleep before 2 in the morning ... --[[User:W126jep|w126jep]] ([[User talk:W126jep|talk]]) 01:16, 15 October 2014 (EDT)
::As with other templates, I have created a new one with a new name - [[Template:honor prerequisites]] will replace [[Template:ay prerequisites]]. I know what you mean about a 3-month old. I used to have one or three of those myself. The second one slept less than we did. I've also been thinking about how we mark templates and their inclusion for translation - we might be doing it wrong, and that could be the root of the problem.

== Camels ==

The Camels SAD honor actually covers [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camelid| Camelids] (4 south american members of family plus the two types of camels). Is it possible the spanish honor name translates better to Camelids rather than Camels? [[User:JadeDragon|JadeDragon]] ([[User talk:JadeDragon|talk]]) 19:34, 15 October 2014 (EDT)
:Agreed. While the literal translation is indeed Camels, the structure of the requirements actually talks about camelids. I'll go ahead and change it to Camelids. -- [[User:W126jep|w126jep]] ([[User talk:W126jep|talk]]) 19:38, 15 October 2014 (EDT)

== Clean Up ==

I don't know what you did, but FuzzyBot has been going nuts deleting a lot of our primary pages. I've undeleted 68 of them so far, but there are about another 100 that need to be restored. Maybe you could take a crack at that? If you go to recent changes and tell it to show you the latest 500 (instead of the default 25), then click on all the red links that Fuzzy has removed (I open them in a new tab). Then you can restore the edits. --[[User:Jomegat|Jomegat]] ([[User talk:Jomegat|talk]]) 10:34, 27 October 2014 (EDT)

== Poison Ivy ==

I saw that you moved the translate tags around on the [[AY Honors/First aid/Poison ivy|poison ivy page]], and was wondering (not criticizing) what your rationale was. The reason I laid them out the way I did was to remove some of the wiki markup from the translation effort (thinking ahead to when we have more translators who may not know wiki markup). I don't mind at all that you changed it, but would like to understand why so that I don't repeat a mistake. --[[User:Jomegat|Jomegat]] ([[User talk:Jomegat|talk]]) 18:55, 5 November 2014 (EST)
:Good question, I don't think I even know why. I guess it's because it's easier for me to just include the entire mark-up in the translation process. I'm more of a big picture kind of person and maybe the extra tags just seemed cluttered to me. Honestly, it doesn't matter, I was just trying to fly through and get through using the method I was accustomed to and that one just stuck out, since it looked different. So, no particular rationale except that I like having the whole mark-up show in the translation process. --[[User:W126jep|w126jep]] ([[User talk:W126jep|talk]]) 20:51, 5 November 2014 (EST)
::OK. We can leave it that way, but I do wonder if other translators would prefer the same big-picture view. --[[User:Jomegat|Jomegat]] ([[User talk:Jomegat|talk]]) 21:14, 5 November 2014 (EST)

== See also ==

Now I know why you were having trouble translating the See also template. It's because there was a "See also" page in the main namespace, and there was another in template namespace. The one in template namespace was imported from Wikipedia, and had a different purpose from the one I wrote in main namespace. I deleted the WP template and then deleted the Spanish one, but then saw that you had a lot of files using it, so I restored it again. However, I'm guessing it wasn't doing what you wanted? --[[User:Jomegat|Jomegat]] ([[User talk:Jomegat|talk]]) 20:56, 13 November 2014 (EST)
:Well that makes sense, I guess. The WP Spanish template is used in all of the translated honors so far, but it really isn't doing what it's supposed to. The point of the "See also" is to show that the honor is a prerequisite for other honors, such as an Advanced honor or a series (like Camping Skills and Backpacking are needed before completing Outdoor Leadership). This is a great way to let Pathfinders know that once they have completed a certain honor, they are a step closer to completing other certain honors. I tried my best with the translation but I noticed that even the English version does not do what it's supposed to. For example, Campcraft is a prerequisite to many other Recreational honors, but it only lists Winter Camping. I wasn't sure at the time how to fix the code, much less how to go about translating it. I left it alone to come back to, but ended up doing a bunch of other stuff and never got to it again.
:I'm glad you were able to figure out the trouble. I say go ahead and delete the templates in both languages. If you can figure out how to fix the English version so that it lists ALL of the honor sequences (maybe each has to be added manually?), then I'll see if I get the translation to Spanish going. --[[User:W126jep|w126jep]] ([[User talk:W126jep|talk]]) 22:21, 13 November 2014 (EST)

::I wouldn't say that the See Also page is broken - it's more that it doesn't cover all the bases. It basically finds anything in the AYHAB/prerequisite/honor category. The [[Template:Honor prerequisite|Honor prerequisite]] template, adds any page that uses it to the proper category. Pages that don't use the prereq template wouldhave to be added manually. I took a quick look at Camp Craft, and found three more honors that link to it - but none of those use the honor prerequisite template. The fix is easy - just add those pages to the right category, and See Also will pick them up.

::As for [[:Template:See Also/es]], I will go ahead and delete that. I'll take a crack at creating a [[See Also/es]], swiping the Spanish from the template you made. You will want to review it though! --[[User:Jomegat|Jomegat]] ([[User talk:Jomegat|talk]]) 18:12, 14 November 2014 (EST)

:::Good stuff, then. I guess we will have to go through and check out which honors are missing from the honor category to be added as prerequisites.

== Honor desc - new argument for translated pages ==

When you create a page translation, could you add another argument to honor_desc/es?:
<nowiki>|primary=AY Honors/Geology</nowiki>.

But of course, put in the name of the honor that this one is translated from. I've been going through the ones you've done already and adding that. I thought we'd be able to leave that out and the new honor_desc template would have been able to figure it out, but that seems not to be the case (and I don't understand why). Without it, you will get a list of "see-also's" in English. With it, you will get the ones that exist in Spanish.

I had a bear of a time getting [[:Template:See Also/es]] to work. It was not picking up the changes I had made to the English version. Found out (after much violent noggin' to wall action) that I had to re-mark the page for translation. That solved it.

BTW, if a page does not exist, the box will still appear, but it will not have any pages listed in it. Oh well. Maybe I can fix that later. Or maybe we just wait for that problem to go away. --[[User:Jomegat|Jomegat]] ([[User talk:Jomegat|talk]]) 21:49, 25 November 2014 (EST)
:Ok, I will make sure to add the new argument. So I put the English version in the Primary argument, no language extension? (lol, noggin' to wall action) --[[User:W126jep|w126jep]] ([[User talk:W126jep|talk]]) 21:57, 25 November 2014 (EST)
::Yes - the the See_Also and Honor_desc templates rely on that for finding the prerequisites. That's why if an honor is a prereq, the template will know that it is and create the see_also box - but then it can only list the Spanish versions that exist, since it's pulling the honorname out of the honor_desc/lang template. This approach really does preclude the possibility of a red link - I'd have to start over to make that happen. All translations will show up in the prereq category for a given honor, but the template only pulls out the pages for a single language. If I have to change it next month, it will take me at least a day to figure out how it even works again. --[[User:Jomegat|Jomegat]] ([[User talk:Jomegat|talk]]) 22:13, 25 November 2014 (EST)
:::Do I add this argument to all honors or only advanced levels or only basic levels? --[[User:W126jep|w126jep]] ([[User talk:W126jep|talk]]) 22:21, 25 November 2014 (EST)
::::It would be best to add them to all honors, but it really only needs to go into those that are prerequisites of others. The problem is, we don't know which existing honors will ''become'' prerequisites for new ones in the future. So it's best if the existing honor already has the bits in place to make this work. --[[User:Jomegat|Jomegat]] ([[User talk:Jomegat|talk]]) 22:34, 25 November 2014 (EST)
:::::So just to make sure I have this right: I add the Primary argument to all honors; I add the English name, with no language extension; do I put the honor name even if it is an advanced level? For example, in Geology - Advanced, is the Primary the basic level or do I put the advanced level? --[[User:W126jep|w126jep]] ([[User talk:W126jep|talk]]) 22:41, 25 November 2014 (EST)
::::::Yes, add the primary to all translated versions of any honor. It should be the page name of the honor you are translating, whether that is advanced or basic. For honors that have regional variants, it should be the page name of the disambiguation page. All honors should have one page that serves as its primary. The primary is the one that gets counted in the honor count logic, and it's the one that holds the prereq category (so all honors that have Geology as a prerequisite will belong to the AYHAB/Prerequiste/Geology category) --[[User:Jomegat|Jomegat]] ([[User talk:Jomegat|talk]]) 09:50, 26 November 2014 (EST)

'''Nevermind!''' - I found and fixed the bug that was preventing this from working automatically. [[Template:Honor_desc/es ]] now pulls the primary name from the pagename correctly if no primary argument is given. So we do not need to supply one except in the case where the primary is not in the first three parts of the PAGENAME (which is not the same as the translated display name). Examples would be for regional variants of Christian Citizenship, etc. --[[User:Jomegat|Jomegat]] ([[User talk:Jomegat|talk]]) 12:44, 26 November 2014 (EST)

Hey Jaceil,
I've got [[Adventist Youth Honors Answer Book/Nature/Amphibians/Sandbox]] and [[Adventist Youth Honors Answer Book/Nature/Amphibians - Advanced/Sandbox]] working to my satisfaction, though I might still remove the TOC from honor_desc2 (and once we roll most of this out, we can remove it from honor_desc).

The links between them seem to work except that they take you to the live pages and not the sandbox pages, but I think that's OK. If you have time, maybe you could see if the translation features will work on those.

:I see you made an attempt. I went in and made a few adjustments, but it has been a long time since I've tried using the translation software. I don't think we need a translation of the reqreq and ansreq templates. I guess we ''could'', but the way they're set up now, I think they should do what we want - at least for en/es/fr. I failed to put the languages tag in the .../Requirements page, so it didn't offer me the button to view things in Spanish until I fixed that. I kept hitting the button at the very top and selecting it from there, but I'm sure you know what happened then - the interface turned to Spanish, and I was still getting the English pages. I'm not ''sure'' I did everything right, so after I pasted translations in for the first three requirements, I stopped. I don't know if we're supposed to mark those titles for translation or not.

== Where the Problems Are ==

I've found a couple of problems with the restructuring process. The first is just something to watch out for, but the second may take more effort.

[[AY Honors/Currency]] is the first one I've run into that has variant answers - we have structured those pages so that we also have
*[[AY Honors/Currency (United States)]]
*[[AY Honors/Currency (Canada)]]
I decided to make a single set of requirement pages for this honor under the auspices of the primary page. When we start using the ansreq template on this (and others like it), we'll have to be sure we grab them from under the primary page. When we link to the requirements on that page (probably in the honor_desc template), we need to pay attention.

The second problem I've encountered is in the [[AY Honors/African Lore]] honor. I didn't recognize the problem until I went to do a translation. In the [[AY Honors/African Lore/es]] version, the requirements are structured differently, specifically, the es version has tertiary requirements listed under 2b, whereas the English one just lists them all out within the secondary level. The code I've written to extract the requirements doesn't deal with tertiary requirements at all right now, and I may have to change that. Or we may need to just deal with them manually. But the important thing is that it's going to be pretty difficult to maintain two different structures (one with tertiary, one without), so I think we're going to have to make them the same.

Or maybe not... the tertiary requirements do exist in the English page, but they're embedded in the secondary, and they'd appear in the blue box that way if we translated them in the secondary, and they appear in the requirements page too. And then we'd have the tertiary headers in the answers. That could work. But I'd like you to weigh in on it.
--[[User:Jomegat|Jomegat]] ([[User talk:Jomegat|talk]]) 00:21, 28 October 2020 (EDT)

:How difficult would it be to add a tertiary level? As we approve honors, we're usually careful to make sure things like this with "2a" and "2b" don't happen. I think I structured all of the Spanish versions to not have this by making 2 primary something like "Do the following" and then including the secondary requirements. If we can keep the tertiary headers, I think that would be the ideal.

:How will the variant answers affect for different divisions? Like the recent Biosafety? I hadn't thought of that either. --[[User:W126jep|w126jep]] ([[User talk:W126jep|talk]]) 02:01, 28 October 2020 (EDT)

::By tertiary, I mean 2.b.ii. I can do it, and I plan to, but it'll take me an evening or two. The problem is that if a translated version uses tertiary, and the "source" version doesn't, there won't be a tertiary requirement page to translate.

::As for honors with variant requirements, I don't think we'll have a problem. NAD Biosafety requirements will go under [[AY Honors/Biosafety/Requirements]] and the SAD version will go under [[AY Honors/Biosafety (South American Division)/Requirements]]. But this is why I'm taking it kind of slow. I think I've extracted the requirements from about two dozen honors so far. I need to see if I can find a bot to help with the translation process - because that's going to be tedious. If I can't get a bot to do it, I'll jump in and start doing it manually, using the already-translated requirements you've already provided. It would be easy to just create the pages as "regular" pages with an /es at the end, but then we won't be able to translate them at all unless we delete the page first.
::When we chose the translation extensions, we found what was the best available tool for the job. If it caught on, someone may have written I could press into service. If not, I'm going to have to learn the MW API and brush up on python, or we're going to be in for a slog. We might need Marilyn's army. --[[User:Jomegat|Jomegat]] ([[User talk:Jomegat|talk]]) 18:17, 28 October 2020 (EDT)
:::So I'm trying to figure out where this restructuring leaves translation. Should I start making Spanish equivalents to the requirements pages? I don't think a bot would be capable of completing the task. --[[User:W126jep|w126jep]] ([[User talk:W126jep|talk]]) 01:04, 1 November 2020 (EST)
::::I think the structure is ready for translation, but don't feel as though you have to be the one to do it. You've already provided the language skill so that anyone who can figure out how the software works can do it just by copying your previous work. I was planning to launch into that myself, but of course I would welcome your help (and watchful eye). A bot ''should'' be able to do it, but I didn't find one. If I spend enough time toiling through the tedium myself it might be enough to drive me to create a bot. --[[User:Jomegat|Jomegat]] ([[User talk:Jomegat|talk]]) 08:44, 1 November 2020 (EST)
:::::If you can find or build a bot, that would be super helpful, just like the English version is doing. -- [[User:W126jep|w126jep]] ([[User talk:W126jep|talk]]) 01:23, 2 November 2020 (EST)
==Heredity==
I'm trying to figure out what to do about [[AY Honors/Heredity|Heredity]]. My inclination is to add an "Answer the following" top-level requirement for 3 and 4, "Mitosis" for 5, and "Meiosis" for 6. Five and six aren't really "requirements", but are rather something more like headings for a group of related requirements. I think an approach like this would preserve any "do requirement 5c of the Heredity honor" references that might be out there, though I;m pretty sure there's nothing like that out there. What do you think? --[[User:Jomegat|Jomegat]] ([[User talk:Jomegat|talk]]) 19:05, 2 November 2020 (EST)

:This is a GC approved honor and the [https://youth.adventist.org/Ministries/Pathfinders/Honors/agentType/View/HonorID/1182/Heredity GC website] takes care of this; we probably just never updated it. We probably need to notify AdventSource. -- [[User:W126jep|w126jep]] ([[User talk:W126jep|talk]]) 11:49, 3 November 2020 (EST)
::Awesome. I should have thought of that. I'll fix it this evening. --[[User:Jomegat|Jomegat]] ([[User talk:Jomegat|talk]]) 13:42, 3 November 2020 (EST)

== Math Skills IV ==

Requirement 3 of [[AY Honors/Math Skills IV]] contains some impossible problems. Could you point me to the original? --[[User:Jomegat|Jomegat]] ([[User talk:Jomegat|talk]]) 21:27, 2 November 2020 (EST)

:This is a link to the SAD [https://es.slideshare.net/jorgequiat/08-especialidades-de-ciencia-y-salud Science & Health Honors Manual]. It's on page 55 of 56. Maybe the way I typed it in the requirement isn't clear. They use the 'x' as a sign of multiplication and also as to 'solve for x', which makes it very confusing. -- [[User:W126jep|w126jep]] ([[User talk:W126jep|talk]]) 11:44, 3 November 2020 (EST)

::That actually helped quite a lot. I'm pretty sure that "5x2" is 5x<sup>2</sup>. I'll fix those this evening as well. --[[User:Jomegat|Jomegat]] ([[User talk:Jomegat|talk]]) 13:44, 3 November 2020 (EST)

:::It's a good thing that one was wacky, since that made me take a second look at it. My bot didn't carry the equal signs from the equations into the requirements. I fixed that by hand. I also noticed that same problem existed in Math III (and fixed that too). --[[User:Jomegat|Jomegat]] ([[User talk:Jomegat|talk]]) 17:10, 3 November 2020 (EST)

::::Yes, I think you're right. I wasn't able to make that out, and since I didn't really work out the problem, I didn't notice when I put it in. I'll make sure to fix the Spanish version also. --[[User:W126jep|w126jep]] ([[User talk:W126jep|talk]]) 02:38, 4 November 2020 (EST)

== [[AY Honors/Card Making/es]] ==

Hey Jaceil - Card Making has not caught up to our February corrections yet, and requirement 2f has no translation. I have otherwise migrated all its requirements to the new [[AY Honors/Card Making/Requirements/es]] page. --[[User:Jomegat|Jomegat]] ([[User talk:Jomegat|talk]]) 14:38, 26 November 2020 (EST)

== Airplane Modeling ==

The airplane modeling honor is missing several sub-requirements under #4. --[[User:Jomegat|Jomegat]] ([[User talk:Jomegat|talk]]) 23:27, 27 November 2020 (EST)
:Fixed them. So the Spanish version for subreqs after j never existed. No other place has those extra requirements in Spanish. I am not sure where those extra ones came from. Was there an update on this honor a while back? -- [[User:W126jep|w126jep]] ([[User talk:W126jep|talk]]) 22:14, 28 November 2020 (EST)
::The edit history goes back to 2006 here (it might go further back on wikibooks), and that version shows those subreqs from back then. So it's not recent (depending on how you define "recent" of course).
::After copying the translations for a couple dozen honors and no robotic solutions in sight, I had a big rethink of the approach. I sent out an email describing it, but no one has responded to it - which makes me think I didn't really send it out. The rethink is that I'm in the process of moving all of the requirements into the honor's honor requirements page and marking each individual requirement with section tags. Translating them all from one page is a ''ton'' faster, and I was able to extract them individually with no problem. Once I knew that would work, I made yet-another-robot to convert them all to single-page. Then my new laptop suffered a catastrophic fan failure, so it's out of commission and I'm back on my old laptop. I thought I had converted all of the honors to single-page reqs, but the count was way off - because a third of the files I had extracted are on my new, dead laptop, and the new robot was working on the files I already grabbed. Not a big deal, but it is rather inconvenient!
::The new robot just subst's the individual honor requirements from the page they're on. Once I've subst'd all of them in on the honors I can change the reqreq template so it grabs them from their new home and then I can delete the 14K requirement pages.

::Also - if you want to take a stab at making a nice looking version of [[Template:RequirementsHeader]] please do - I've done the mechanical parts already and it can extract any metadata from honor_desc that we might want. I learned new DPL tricks to pull out that magic. It's kind of cool! --[[User:Jomegat|Jomegat]] ([[User talk:Jomegat|talk]]) 22:53, 28 November 2020 (EST)

:::I saw the email. I think it would be easier to put everything on one single page for the requirements instead of having so many single pages for each requirement. Sorry about your laptop! But even though it will take time to repair it, there is no rush in the Wiki, as we are still experimenting and in trying to get things right. It would be nice, however, to have something almost ready to go by New Year's. But making everything work is more important. I'll check out the RequirementsHeader and see what I can do with it. --[[User:W126jep|w126jep]] ([[User talk:W126jep|talk]]) 23:33, 28 November 2020 (EST)

::::Thanks. Jonathan saw the email too and pointed out a mistake I made (and which I have now fixed). I went ahead and "translated" the Amphibians requirements to make sure that the AnswerRequirements template deals with es: [[User:Jomegat/Sandbox/es]] shows the results. That page is literally a cut and paste of the English version which should greatly ease our workload. --[[User:Jomegat|Jomegat]] ([[User talk:Jomegat|talk]]) 10:47, 29 November 2020 (EST)

== AY Honors/Template ==

I noticed you added a translate tag to [[AY Honors/Abseiling]], so I added the same one to [[AY Honors/Template]]. The template page should not be marked for translation though since its purpose is so we can paste it in where a new honor's landing page goes, and I don't ''think'' we want translation unit tags there? FWIW, I had fun making the template. ;) --[[User:Jomegat|Jomegat]] ([[User talk:Jomegat|talk]]) 03:22, 15 December 2020 (CET)

[[File:PF profile.jpg|200px|right]]
[[File:2018 cg.png|200px|right]]
[[File:Cailin-grad2012.png|200px|right]]

==Why Bluescifiworm?==
The tag bluescifiworm has a bit of a history behind it. Originally, I picked it because it was unique (You know how hard it is to come up with something no one else has used as a online tag?). I chose it because of the following reasons.

# I like the color blue.
# I love reading scifi books, specifically, ''Star Trek'', ''Star Wars'', ''Honor Harrington'' series (by David Weber), and Anne McCaffrey's ''Dragonriders of Pern'' series.
# I'm a bit of a bookworm. Well, maybe a '''lot''' of a bookworm ;)

==A bit of background==
My name is Cailin. I am 34 years old. In May of 2012, I completed a Bachelor of Science degree at Tarleton State University in Horticulture and Landscape Management with a Business Administration minor. I also hold an Associate of Science in Graphic Design. Some may ask... "Why change fields?" Well, the answer for that is a tad bit complex. At the time I was working on my AS, Graphic Design was a highly sought-after skill, and I found myself to be reasonably skilled with it. It is difficult, however, to find a job when people are starting to be able to do this kind of work for themselves. I spent over a year looking without much success. I then moved around a bit, finally ending up in Texas during the late summer of 2006. I did find some work, but it wasn't what I was really wanting, or what made good use of my skills. After that, I spent 6 months in AmeriCorps and then 8 months working for the IRS, then I decided to go back to school. My stint in AmeriCorps had rekindled my love for the outdoors that I'd had growing up.

==Pathfinders==
I was in Pathfinders from 1998 to about 2005. In that time, I was active in two clubs - Merrimack Valley (Manchester) and then Portsmouth Living Waters. I started Pathfinders in Merrimack Valley when Pathfinders still had the green pants and skirts. It was a BIG change uniform wise to go from green and khaki to black and khaki, but I have to admit, it looks a lot sharper, and we look less like Boy Scouts. That is not to say, however, that I dislike Boy Scouts as an organization. I think they are a wonderful group of people, and when I was younger, I had the opportunity to interact with quite a few. The summer camp I went to for physically challenged kids was on a Boy Scout reservation.

During my time in Pathfinders, I completed many honors, and 3 classes (now called Investiture Achievements) and began work on my Master Guide requirements as well as completing the full four years of the TLT (Teen Leadership Training) program. In 2004, I had the opportunity to travel to the 2004 "Faith on Fire" International Pathfinder Camporee in Oskkosh, WI. with the Portsmouth Living Waters. '''That''' was something I will never forget. I thought I would have to start my Master Guide over again when I returned to Pathfindering after a 6-year absence (in 2012), but I worked closely with others in my local club to complete the remaining requirements.

I completed my Master Guide in May of 2013 and was invested on June 1st, 2013. I'm so glad to have it finally finished. It was a long time coming. But, with the encouragement and help of many people, I have finally completed it. Master Guide is roughly equivalent to Eagle Scout in Boy Scouts.

More recently, I've been an active member of the staff for the Central NH Flames Pathfinders, which is part of the Northern New England Conference. I've taught Explorer and Guide, as well as Pioneer and Navigator - the two classes developed by the Florida Conference. These two classes are not officially recognized by the NAD, but I find that they provide engagement for older Pathfinders.

In the last couple of years, I have served as the Secretary for the Central NH Flames. I developed an attendance tracking system using Google Docs and Forms, and I also developed a series of binders for the instructors for each of the classes. These binders contain not only the books for each class but also honors and other reference materials - which provide the instructor with many of the resources they need all in one place. All of these resources are available online - I merely compiled them.

==Then, and Now==
I won't bore you with all the details, but I think this degree will be of much more use to me. I've recently returned to the East Coast, and gotten involved in Pathfinders again... and it feels almost like I never left. That to me is one of the most wonderful feelings in the world... to be welcomed back by friends you haven't seen in well over half a decade, and it's like you never left.

One of the things that I'm really looking forward to is sharing my knowledge here on the wiki for other Pathfinders, staff, and Master Guides. I feel that is how I can minister in my own right.

==Messages==
If you need to contact me with a question or comment, please do so here on the Discussion Section of my User Page, or leave a comment on the Talk page of the Honor or IA class I've been working on. You can check this by looking at my current list of projects here on this page, or checking the edit history of any Honor page. I do try to watch pages I work on frequently.

==Important Notes==
Basic Rescue[http://www.investitureachievement.org/wiki/index.php/Adventist_Youth_Honors_Answer_Book/Health_and_Science/Basic_Rescue] , CPR[http://www.investitureachievement.org/wiki/index.php/Adventist_Youth_Honors_Answer_Book/Health_and_Science/CPR], and Red Alert [http://www.investitureachievement.org/wiki/index.php/Adventist_Youth_Honors_Answer_Book/Health_and_Science/Red_Alert] were moved from '''Outreach''' [now '''Spiritual Growth and Ministries, and Outreach'''] to the '''Health and Science''' category. They now have a purple background instead of dark blue, though many Pathfinders (including me!) have the older patches from before the change went into effect. The '''Spiritual Growth and Ministries Master Award'''[http://wiki.pathfindersonline.org/w/Category:Adventist_Youth_Honors_Answer_Book/Spiritual_Growth_and_Ministries_Master_Award] has replaced the '''Witnessing Master Award'''.

I then moved around a bit, finally ending up in Texas during the late summer of 2006. I did find some work, but it wasn't what I was really wanting, or what made good use of my skills. After that, I spent 6 months in AmeriCorps and then 8 months working for the IRS, then I decided to go back to school. My stint in AmeriCorps had rekindled my love for the outdoors that I'd had growing up.

==Pathfinders==
I was in Pathfinders from 1998 to about 2005. In that time, I was active in two clubs - Merrimack Valley (Manchester) and then Portsmouth Living Waters. I started Pathfinders in Merrimack Valley when Pathfinders still had the green pants and skirts. It was a BIG change uniform wise to go from green and khaki to black and khaki, but I have to admit, it looks a lot sharper, and we look less like Boy Scouts. That is not to say, however, that I dislike Boy Scouts as an organization. I think they are a wonderful group of people, and when I was younger, I had the opportunity to interact with quite a few. The summer camp I went to for physically challenged kids was on a Boy Scout reservation.

During my time in Pathfinders, I completed many honors, and 3 classes (now called Investiture Achievements) and began work on my Master Guide requirements as well as completing the full four years of the TLT (Teen Leadership Training) program. In 2004, I had the opportunity to travel to the 2004 "Faith on Fire" International Pathfinder Camporee in Oskkosh, WI. with the Portsmouth Living Waters. '''That''' was something I will never forget. I thought I would have to start my Master Guide over again when I returned to Pathfindering after a 6-year absence (in 2012), but I worked closely with others in my local club to complete the remaining requirements.

I completed my Master Guide in May of 2013 and was invested on June 1st, 2013. I'm so glad to have it finally finished. It was a long time coming. But, with the encouragement and help of many people, I have finally completed it. Master Guide is roughly equivalent to Eagle Scout in Boy Scouts.

More recently, I've been an active member of the staff for the Central NH Flames Pathfinders, which is part of the Northern New England Conference. I've taught Explorer and Guide, as well as Pioneer and Navigator - the two classes developed by the Florida Conference. These two classes are not officially recognized by the NAD, but I find that they provide engagement for older Pathfinders.

In the last couple of years, I have served as the Secretary for the Central NH Flames. I developed an attendance tracking system using Google Docs and Forms, and I also developed a series of binders for the instructors for each of the classes. These binders contain not only the books for each class but also honors and other reference materials - which provide the instructor with many of the resources they need all in one place. All of these resources are available online - I merely compiled them.

==Then, and Now==
I won't bore you with all the details, but I think this degree will be of much more use to me. I've recently returned to the East Coast, and gotten involved in Pathfinders again... and it feels almost like I never left. That to me is one of the most wonderful feelings in the world... to be welcomed back by friends you haven't seen in well over half a decade, and it's like you never left.

One of the things that I'm really looking forward to is sharing my knowledge here on the wiki for other Pathfinders, staff, and Master Guides. I feel that is how I can minister in my own right.

==Messages==
If you need to contact me with a question or comment, please do so here on the Discussion Section of my User Page, or leave a comment on the Talk page of the Honor or IA class I've been working on. You can check this by looking at my current list of projects here on this page, or checking the edit history of any Honor page. I do try to watch pages I work on frequently.

==Important Notes==
Basic Rescue[http://www.investitureachievement.org/wiki/index.php/Adventist_Youth_Honors_Answer_Book/Health_and_Science/Basic_Rescue] , CPR[http://www.investitureachievement.org/wiki/index.php/Adventist_Youth_Honors_Answer_Book/Health_and_Science/CPR], and Red Alert [http://www.investitureachievement.org/wiki/index.php/Adventist_Youth_Honors_Answer_Book/Health_and_Science/Red_Alert] were moved from '''Outreach''' [now '''Spiritual Growth and Ministries, and Outreach'''] to the '''Health and Science''' category. They now have a purple background instead of dark blue, though many Pathfinders (including me!) have the older patches from before the change went into effect. The '''Spiritual Growth and Ministries Master Award'''[http://wiki.pathfindersonline.org/w/Category:Adventist_Youth_Honors_Answer_Book/Spiritual_Growth_and_Ministries_Master_Award] has replaced the '''Witnessing Master Award'''.

Bluescifiworm: /* Honors I have Taught */

[[File:PF profile.jpg|200px|right]]

[[File:Cailin-grad2012.png|200px|right]]

==Why Bluescifiworm?==
The tag bluescifiworm has a bit of a history behind it. Originally, I picked it because it was unique (You know how hard it is to come up with something no one else has used as a online tag?). I chose it because of the following reasons.

# I like the color blue.
# I love reading scifi books, specifically, ''Star Trek'', ''Star Wars'', ''Honor Harrington'' series (by David Weber), and Anne McCaffrey's ''Dragonriders of Pern'' series.
# I'm a bit of a bookworm. Well, maybe a '''lot''' of a bookworm ;)

==A bit of background==
My name is Cailin. I am 34 years old. In May of 2012, I completed a Bachelor of Science degree at Tarleton State University in Horticulture and Landscape Management with a Business Administration minor. I also hold an Associate of Science in Graphic Design. Some may ask... "Why change fields?" Well, the answer for that is a tad bit complex. At the time I was working on my AS, Graphic Design was a highly sought-after skill, and I found myself to be reasonably skilled with it. It is difficult, however, to find a job when people are starting to be able to do this kind of work for themselves. I spent over a year looking without much success. I then moved around a bit, finally ending up in Texas during the late summer of 2006. I did find some work, but it wasn't what I was really wanting, or what made good use of my skills. After that, I spent 6 months in AmeriCorps and then 8 months working for the IRS, then I decided to go back to school. My stint in AmeriCorps had rekindled my love for the outdoors that I'd had growing up.

==Pathfinders==
I was in Pathfinders from 1998 to about 2005. In that time, I was active in two clubs - Merrimack Valley (Manchester) and then Portsmouth Living Waters. I started Pathfinders in Merrimack Valley when Pathfinders still had the green pants and skirts. It was a BIG change uniform wise to go from green and khaki to black and khaki, but I have to admit, it looks a lot sharper, and we look less like Boy Scouts. That is not to say, however, that I dislike Boy Scouts as an organization. I think they are a wonderful group of people, and when I was younger, I had the opportunity to interact with quite a few. The summer camp I went to for physically challenged kids was on a Boy Scout reservation.

During my time in Pathfinders, I completed many honors, and 3 classes (now called Investiture Achievements) and began work on my Master Guide requirements as well as completing the full four years of the TLT (Teen Leadership Training) program. In 2004, I had the opportunity to travel to the 2004 "Faith on Fire" International Pathfinder Camporee in Oskkosh, WI. with the Portsmouth Living Waters. '''That''' was something I will never forget. I thought I would have to start my Master Guide over again when I returned to Pathfindering after a 6-year absence (in 2012), but I worked closely with others in my local club to complete the remaining requirements.

I completed my Master Guide in May of 2013 and was invested on June 1st, 2013. I'm so glad to have it finally finished. It was a long time coming. But, with the encouragement and help of many people, I have finally completed it. Master Guide is roughly equivalent to Eagle Scout in Boy Scouts.

More recently, I've been an active member of the staff for the Central NH Flames Pathfinders, which is part of the Northern New England Conference. I've taught Explorer and Guide, as well as Pioneer and Navigator - the two classes developed by the Florida Conference. These two classes are not officially recognized by the NAD, but I find that they provide engagement for older Pathfinders.

In the last couple of years, I have served as the Secretary for the Central NH Flames. I developed an attendance tracking system using Google Docs and Forms, and I also developed a series of binders for the instructors for each of the classes. These binders contain not only the books for each class but also honors and other reference materials - which provide the instructor with many of the resources they need all in one place. All of these resources are available online - I merely compiled them.

==Then, and Now==
I won't bore you with all the details, but I think this degree will be of much more use to me. I've recently returned to the East Coast, and gotten involved in Pathfinders again... and it feels almost like I never left. That to me is one of the most wonderful feelings in the world... to be welcomed back by friends you haven't seen in well over half a decade, and it's like you never left.

One of the things that I'm really looking forward to is sharing my knowledge here on the wiki for other Pathfinders, staff, and Master Guides. I feel that is how I can minister in my own right.

==Messages==
If you need to contact me with a question or comment, please do so here on the Discussion Section of my User Page, or leave a comment on the Talk page of the Honor or IA class I've been working on. You can check this by looking at my current list of projects here on this page, or checking the edit history of any Honor page. I do try to watch pages I work on frequently.

They now have a purple background instead of dark blue, though many Pathfinders (including me!) have the older patches from before the change went into effect. The '''Spiritual Growth and Ministries Master Award'''[http://wiki.pathfindersonline.org/w/Category:Adventist_Youth_Honors_Answer_Book/Spiritual_Growth_and_Ministries_Master_Award] has replaced the '''Witnessing Master Award'''.

Bluescifiworm: /* Completed Honors */

[[File:PF profile.jpg|200px|right]]
[[File:2018 cg.png|200px|right]]
[[File:Cailin-grad2012.png|200px|right]]

==Why Bluescifiworm?==
The tag bluescifiworm has a bit of a history behind it. Originally, I picked it because it was unique (You know how hard it is to come up with something no one else has used as a online tag?). I chose it because of the following reasons.

# I like the color blue.
# I love reading scifi books, specifically, ''Star Trek'', ''Star Wars'', ''Honor Harrington'' series (by David Weber), and Anne McCaffrey's ''Dragonriders of Pern'' series.
# I'm a bit of a bookworm. Well, maybe a '''lot''' of a bookworm ;)

==A bit of background==
My name is Cailin. I am 34 years old. In May of 2012, I completed a Bachelor of Science degree at Tarleton State University in Horticulture and Landscape Management with a Business Administration minor. I also hold an Associate of Science in Graphic Design. Some may ask... "Why change fields?" Well, the answer for that is a tad bit complex. At the time I was working on my AS, Graphic Design was a highly sought-after skill, and I found myself to be reasonably skilled with it. It is difficult, however, to find a job when people are starting to be able to do this kind of work for themselves. I spent over a year looking without much success. I then moved around a bit, finally ending up in Texas during the late summer of 2006. I did find some work, but it wasn't what I was really wanting, or what made good use of my skills. After that, I spent 6 months in AmeriCorps and then 8 months working for the IRS, then I decided to go back to school. My stint in AmeriCorps had rekindled my love for the outdoors that I'd had growing up.

==Pathfinders==
I was in Pathfinders from 1998 to about 2005. In that time, I was active in two clubs - Merrimack Valley (Manchester) and then Portsmouth Living Waters. I started Pathfinders in Merrimack Valley when Pathfinders still had the green pants and skirts. It was a BIG change uniform wise to go from green and khaki to black and khaki, but I have to admit, it looks a lot sharper, and we look less like Boy Scouts. That is not to say, however, that I dislike Boy Scouts as an organization. I think they are a wonderful group of people, and when I was younger, I had the opportunity to interact with quite a few. The summer camp I went to for physically challenged kids was on a Boy Scout reservation.

During my time in Pathfinders, I completed many honors, and 3 classes (now called Investiture Achievements) and began work on my Master Guide requirements as well as completing the full four years of the TLT (Teen Leadership Training) program. In 2004, I had the opportunity to travel to the 2004 "Faith on Fire" International Pathfinder Camporee in Oskkosh, WI. with the Portsmouth Living Waters. '''That''' was something I will never forget. I thought I would have to start my Master Guide over again when I returned to Pathfindering after a 6-year absence (in 2012), but I worked closely with others in my local club to complete the remaining requirements.

I completed my Master Guide in May of 2013 and was invested on June 1st, 2013. I'm so glad to have it finally finished. It was a long time coming. But, with the encouragement and help of many people, I have finally completed it. Master Guide is roughly equivalent to Eagle Scout in Boy Scouts.

More recently, I've been an active member of the staff for the Central NH Flames Pathfinders, which is part of the Northern New England Conference. I've taught Explorer and Guide, as well as Pioneer and Navigator - the two classes developed by the Florida Conference. These two classes are not officially recognized by the NAD, but I find that they provide engagement for older Pathfinders.

In the last couple of years, I have served as the Secretary for the Central NH Flames. I developed an attendance tracking system using Google Docs and Forms, and I also developed a series of binders for the instructors for each of the classes. These binders contain not only the books for each class but also honors and other reference materials - which provide the instructor with many of the resources they need all in one place. All of these resources are available online - I merely compiled them.

==Then, and Now==
I won't bore you with all the details, but I think this degree will be of much more use to me. I've recently returned to the East Coast, and gotten involved in Pathfinders again... and it feels almost like I never left. That to me is one of the most wonderful feelings in the world... to be welcomed back by friends you haven't seen in well over half a decade, and it's like you never left.

One of the things that I'm really looking forward to is sharing my knowledge here on the wiki for other Pathfinders, staff, and Master Guides. I feel that is how I can minister in my own right.

Bluescifiworm: /* Health and Science */

[[File:PF profile.jpg|200px|right]]
[[File:2018 cg.png|200px|right]]
[[File:Cailin-grad2012.png|200px|right]]

==Why Bluescifiworm?==
The tag bluescifiworm has a bit of a history behind it. Originally, I picked it because it was unique (You know how hard it is to come up with something no one else has used as a online tag?). I chose it because of the following reasons.

# I like the color blue.
# I love reading scifi books, specifically, ''Star Trek'', ''Star Wars'', ''Honor Harrington'' series (by David Weber), and Anne McCaffrey's ''Dragonriders of Pern'' series.
# I'm a bit of a bookworm. Well, maybe a '''lot''' of a bookworm ;)

==A bit of background==
My name is Cailin. I am 34 years old. In May of 2012, I completed a Bachelor of Science degree at Tarleton State University in Horticulture and Landscape Management with a Business Administration minor. I also hold an Associate of Science in Graphic Design. Some may ask... "Why change fields?" Well, the answer for that is a tad bit complex. At the time I was working on my AS, Graphic Design was a highly sought-after skill, and I found myself to be reasonably skilled with it. It is difficult, however, to find a job when people are starting to be able to do this kind of work for themselves. I spent over a year looking without much success. I then moved around a bit, finally ending up in Texas during the late summer of 2006. I did find some work, but it wasn't what I was really wanting, or what made good use of my skills. After that, I spent 6 months in AmeriCorps and then 8 months working for the IRS, then I decided to go back to school. My stint in AmeriCorps had rekindled my love for the outdoors that I'd had growing up.

==Pathfinders==
I was in Pathfinders from 1998 to about 2005. In that time, I was active in two clubs - Merrimack Valley (Manchester) and then Portsmouth Living Waters. I started Pathfinders in Merrimack Valley when Pathfinders still had the green pants and skirts. It was a BIG change uniform wise to go from green and khaki to black and khaki, but I have to admit, it looks a lot sharper, and we look less like Boy Scouts. That is not to say, however, that I dislike Boy Scouts as an organization. I think they are a wonderful group of people, and when I was younger, I had the opportunity to interact with quite a few. The summer camp I went to for physically challenged kids was on a Boy Scout reservation.

During my time in Pathfinders, I completed many honors, and 3 classes (now called Investiture Achievements) and began work on my Master Guide requirements as well as completing the full four years of the TLT (Teen Leadership Training) program. In 2004, I had the opportunity to travel to the 2004 "Faith on Fire" International Pathfinder Camporee in Oskkosh, WI. with the Portsmouth Living Waters. '''That''' was something I will never forget. I thought I would have to start my Master Guide over again when I returned to Pathfindering after a 6-year absence (in 2012), but I worked closely with others in my local club to complete the remaining requirements.

I completed my Master Guide in May of 2013 and was invested on June 1st, 2013. I'm so glad to have it finally finished. It was a long time coming. But, with the encouragement and help of many people, I have finally completed it. Master Guide is roughly equivalent to Eagle Scout in Boy Scouts.

More recently, I've been an active member of the staff for the Central NH Flames Pathfinders, which is part of the Northern New England Conference. I've taught Explorer and Guide, as well as Pioneer and Navigator - the two classes developed by the Florida Conference. These two classes are not officially recognized by the NAD, but I find that they provide engagement for older Pathfinders.

In the last couple of years, I have served as the Secretary for the Central NH Flames. I developed an attendance tracking system using Google Docs and Forms, and I also developed a series of binders for the instructors for each of the classes. These binders contain not only the books for each class but also honors and other reference materials - which provide the instructor with many of the resources they need all in one place. All of these resources are available online - I merely compiled them.

I completed my Master Guide in May of 2013 and was invested on June 1st, 2013. I'm so glad to have it finally finished. It was a long time coming. But, with the encouragement and help of many people, I have finally completed it. Master Guide is roughly equivalent to Eagle Scout in Boy Scouts.

More recently, I've been an active member of the staff for the Central NH Flames Pathfinders, which is part of the Northern New England Conference. I've taught Explorer and Guide, as well as Pioneer and Navigator - the two classes developed by the Florida Conference. These two classes are not officially recognized by the NAD, but I find that they provide engagement for older Pathfinders.

In the last couple of years, I have served as the Secretary for the Central NH Flames. I developed an attendance tracking system using Google Docs and Forms, and I also developed a series of binders for the instructors for each of the classes. These binders contain not only the books for each class but also honors and other reference materials - which provide the instructor with many of the resources they need all in one place. All of these resources are available online - I merely compiled them.

==Then, and Now==
I won't bore you with all the details, but I think this degree will be of much more use to me. I've recently returned to the East Coast, and gotten involved in Pathfinders again... and it feels almost like I never left. That to me is one of the most wonderful feelings in the world... to be welcomed back by friends you haven't seen in well over half a decade, and it's like you never left.

One of the things that I'm really looking forward to is sharing my knowledge here on the wiki for other Pathfinders, staff, and Master Guides. I feel that is how I can minister in my own right.

==Messages==
If you need to contact me with a question or comment, please do so here on the Discussion Section of my User Page, or leave a comment on the Talk page of the Honor or IA class I've been working on. You can check this by looking at my current list of projects here on this page, or checking the edit history of any Honor page. I do try to watch pages I work on frequently.

==Important Notes==
Basic Rescue[http://www.investitureachievement.org/wiki/index.php/Adventist_Youth_Honors_Answer_Book/Health_and_Science/Basic_Rescue] , CPR[http://www.investitureachievement.org/wiki/index.php/Adventist_Youth_Honors_Answer_Book/Health_and_Science/CPR], and Red Alert [http://www.investitureachievement.org/wiki/index.php/Adventist_Youth_Honors_Answer_Book/Health_and_Science/Red_Alert] were moved from '''Outreach''' [now '''Spiritual Growth and Ministries, and Outreach'''] to the '''Health and Science''' category. They now have a purple background instead of dark blue, though many Pathfinders (including me!) have the older patches from before the change went into effect. The '''Spiritual Growth and Ministries Master Award'''[http://wiki.pathfindersonline.org/w/Category:Adventist_Youth_Honors_Answer_Book/Spiritual_Growth_and_Ministries_Master_Award] has replaced the '''Witnessing Master Award'''.

Bluescifiworm: /* Nature [Naturalist Master] [Zoology Master] */

[[File:PF profile.jpg|200px|right]]
[[File:2018 cg.png|200px|right]]
[[File:Cailin-grad2012.png|200px|right]]

==Why Bluescifiworm?==
The tag bluescifiworm has a bit of a history behind it. Originally, I picked it because it was unique (You know how hard it is to come up with something no one else has used as a online tag?). I chose it because of the following reasons.

# I like the color blue.
# I love reading scifi books, specifically, ''Star Trek'', ''Star Wars'', ''Honor Harrington'' series (by David Weber), and Anne McCaffrey's ''Dragonriders of Pern'' series.
# I'm a bit of a bookworm. Well, maybe a '''lot''' of a bookworm ;)

==A bit of background==
My name is Cailin. I am 34 years old. In May of 2012, I completed a Bachelor of Science degree at Tarleton State University in Horticulture and Landscape Management with a Business Administration minor. I also hold an Associate of Science in Graphic Design. Some may ask... "Why change fields?" Well, the answer for that is a tad bit complex. At the time I was working on my AS, Graphic Design was a highly sought-after skill, and I found myself to be reasonably skilled with it. It is difficult, however, to find a job when people are starting to be able to do this kind of work for themselves. I spent over a year looking without much success. I then moved around a bit, finally ending up in Texas during the late summer of 2006. I did find some work, but it wasn't what I was really wanting, or what made good use of my skills. After that, I spent 6 months in AmeriCorps and then 8 months working for the IRS, then I decided to go back to school. My stint in AmeriCorps had rekindled my love for the outdoors that I'd had growing up.

==Pathfinders==
I was in Pathfinders from 1998 to about 2005. In that time, I was active in two clubs - Merrimack Valley (Manchester) and then Portsmouth Living Waters. I started Pathfinders in Merrimack Valley when Pathfinders still had the green pants and skirts. It was a BIG change uniform wise to go from green and khaki to black and khaki, but I have to admit, it looks a lot sharper, and we look less like Boy Scouts. That is not to say, however, that I dislike Boy Scouts as an organization. I think they are a wonderful group of people, and when I was younger, I had the opportunity to interact with quite a few. The summer camp I went to for physically challenged kids was on a Boy Scout reservation.

During my time in Pathfinders, I completed many honors, and 3 classes (now called Investiture Achievements) and began work on my Master Guide requirements as well as completing the full four years of the TLT (Teen Leadership Training) program. In 2004, I had the opportunity to travel to the 2004 "Faith on Fire" International Pathfinder Camporee in Oskkosh, WI. with the Portsmouth Living Waters. '''That''' was something I will never forget. I thought I would have to start my Master Guide over again when I returned to Pathfindering after a 6-year absence (in 2012), but I worked closely with others in my local club to complete the remaining requirements.

I completed my Master Guide in May of 2013 and was invested on June 1st, 2013. I'm so glad to have it finally finished. It was a long time coming. But, with the encouragement and help of many people, I have finally completed it. Master Guide is roughly equivalent to Eagle Scout in Boy Scouts.

More recently, I've been an active member of the staff for the Central NH Flames Pathfinders, which is part of the Northern New England Conference. I've taught Explorer and Guide, as well as Pioneer and Navigator - the two classes developed by the Florida Conference. These two classes are not officially recognized by the NAD, but I find that they provide engagement for older Pathfinders.

In the last couple of years, I have served as the Secretary for the Central NH Flames. I developed an attendance tracking system using Google Docs and Forms, and I also developed a series of binders for the instructors for each of the classes. These binders contain not only the books for each class but also honors and other reference materials - which provide the instructor with many of the resources they need all in one place.

That to me is one of the most wonderful feelings in the world... to be welcomed back by friends you haven't seen in well over half a decade, and it's like you never left.

One of the things that I'm really looking forward to is sharing my knowledge here on the wiki for other Pathfinders, staff, and Master Guides. I feel that is how I can minister in my own right.

Bluescifiworm: /* Spiritual Growth, Outreach & Heritage [Spiritual Growth and Ministries Master] */

==Why Bluescifiworm?==
The tag bluescifiworm has a bit of a history behind it. Originally, I picked it because it was unique (You know how hard it is to come up with something no one else has used as a online tag?). I chose it because of the following reasons.

# I like the color blue.
# I love reading scifi books, specifically, ''Star Trek'', ''Star Wars'', ''Honor Harrington'' series (by David Weber), and Anne McCaffrey's ''Dragonriders of Pern'' series.
# I'm a bit of a bookworm. Well, maybe a '''lot''' of a bookworm ;)

==A bit of background==
My name is Cailin. I am 34 years old. In May of 2012, I completed a Bachelor of Science degree at Tarleton State University in Horticulture and Landscape Management with a Business Administration minor. I also hold an Associate of Science in Graphic Design. Some may ask... "Why change fields?" Well, the answer for that is a tad bit complex. At the time I was working on my AS, Graphic Design was a highly sought-after skill, and I found myself to be reasonably skilled with it. It is difficult, however, to find a job when people are starting to be able to do this kind of work for themselves. I spent over a year looking without much success. I then moved around a bit, finally ending up in Texas during the late summer of 2006. I did find some work, but it wasn't what I was really wanting, or what made good use of my skills. After that, I spent 6 months in AmeriCorps and then 8 months working for the IRS, then I decided to go back to school. My stint in AmeriCorps had rekindled my love for the outdoors that I'd had growing up.

==Pathfinders==
I was in Pathfinders from 1998 to about 2005. In that time, I was active in two clubs - Merrimack Valley (Manchester) and then Portsmouth Living Waters. I started Pathfinders in Merrimack Valley when Pathfinders still had the green pants and skirts. It was a BIG change uniform wise to go from green and khaki to black and khaki, but I have to admit, it looks a lot sharper, and we look less like Boy Scouts. That is not to say, however, that I dislike Boy Scouts as an organization. I think they are a wonderful group of people, and when I was younger, I had the opportunity to interact with quite a few. The summer camp I went to for physically challenged kids was on a Boy Scout reservation.

During my time in Pathfinders, I completed many honors, and 3 classes (now called Investiture Achievements) and began work on my Master Guide requirements as well as completing the full four years of the TLT (Teen Leadership Training) program. In 2004, I had the opportunity to travel to the 2004 "Faith on Fire" International Pathfinder Camporee in Oskkosh, WI. with the Portsmouth Living Waters. '''That''' was something I will never forget. I thought I would have to start my Master Guide over again when I returned to Pathfindering after a 6-year absence (in 2012), but I worked closely with others in my local club to complete the remaining requirements.

I completed my Master Guide in May of 2013 and was invested on June 1st, 2013. I'm so glad to have it finally finished. It was a long time coming. But, with the encouragement and help of many people, I have finally completed it. Master Guide is roughly equivalent to Eagle Scout in Boy Scouts.

More recently, I've been an active member of the staff for the Central NH Flames Pathfinders, which is part of the Northern New England Conference. I've taught Explorer and Guide, as well as Pioneer and Navigator - the two classes developed by the Florida Conference. These two classes are not officially recognized by the NAD, but I find that they provide engagement for older Pathfinders.

In the last couple of years, I have served as the Secretary for the Central NH Flames. I developed an attendance tracking system using Google Docs and Forms, and I also developed a series of binders for the instructors for each of the classes. These binders contain not only the books for each class but also honors and other reference materials - which provide the instructor with many of the resources they need all in one place. All of these resources are available online - I merely compiled them.

==Then, and Now==
I won't bore you with all the details, but I think this degree will be of much more use to me. I've recently returned to the East Coast, and gotten involved in Pathfinders again... and it feels almost like I never left. That to me is one of the most wonderful feelings in the world... to be welcomed back by friends you haven't seen in well over half a decade, and it's like you never left.

One of the things that I'm really looking forward to is sharing my knowledge here on the wiki for other Pathfinders, staff, and Master Guides. I feel that is how I can minister in my own right.

Bluescifiworm: /* Vocational [Technichian Master] */

[[File:PF profile.jpg|200px|right]]
[[File:2018 cg.png|200px|right]]
[[File:Cailin-grad2012.png|200px|right]]

==Why Bluescifiworm?==
The tag bluescifiworm has a bit of a history behind it. Originally, I picked it because it was unique (You know how hard it is to come up with something no one else has used as a online tag?). I chose it because of the following reasons.

# I like the color blue.
# I love reading scifi books, specifically, ''Star Trek'', ''Star Wars'', ''Honor Harrington'' series (by David Weber), and Anne McCaffrey's ''Dragonriders of Pern'' series.
# I'm a bit of a bookworm. Well, maybe a '''lot''' of a bookworm ;)

==A bit of background==
My name is Cailin. I am 34 years old. In May of 2012, I completed a Bachelor of Science degree at Tarleton State University in Horticulture and Landscape Management with a Business Administration minor. I also hold an Associate of Science in Graphic Design. Some may ask... "Why change fields?" Well, the answer for that is a tad bit complex. At the time I was working on my AS, Graphic Design was a highly sought-after skill, and I found myself to be reasonably skilled with it. It is difficult, however, to find a job when people are starting to be able to do this kind of work for themselves. I spent over a year looking without much success. I then moved around a bit, finally ending up in Texas during the late summer of 2006. I did find some work, but it wasn't what I was really wanting, or what made good use of my skills. After that, I spent 6 months in AmeriCorps and then 8 months working for the IRS, then I decided to go back to school. My stint in AmeriCorps had rekindled my love for the outdoors that I'd had growing up.

==Pathfinders==
I was in Pathfinders from 1998 to about 2005. In that time, I was active in two clubs - Merrimack Valley (Manchester) and then Portsmouth Living Waters. I started Pathfinders in Merrimack Valley when Pathfinders still had the green pants and skirts. It was a BIG change uniform wise to go from green and khaki to black and khaki, but I have to admit, it looks a lot sharper, and we look less like Boy Scouts. That is not to say, however, that I dislike Boy Scouts as an organization. I think they are a wonderful group of people, and when I was younger, I had the opportunity to interact with quite a few. The summer camp I went to for physically challenged kids was on a Boy Scout reservation.

During my time in Pathfinders, I completed many honors, and 3 classes (now called Investiture Achievements) and began work on my Master Guide requirements as well as completing the full four years of the TLT (Teen Leadership Training) program. In 2004, I had the opportunity to travel to the 2004 "Faith on Fire" International Pathfinder Camporee in Oskkosh, WI. with the Portsmouth Living Waters. '''That''' was something I will never forget. I thought I would have to start my Master Guide over again when I returned to Pathfindering after a 6-year absence (in 2012), but I worked closely with others in my local club to complete the remaining requirements.

I completed my Master Guide in May of 2013 and was invested on June 1st, 2013. I'm so glad to have it finally finished. It was a long time coming. But, with the encouragement and help of many people, I have finally completed it. Master Guide is roughly equivalent to Eagle Scout in Boy Scouts.

More recently, I've been an active member of the staff for the Central NH Flames Pathfinders, which is part of the Northern New England Conference. I've taught Explorer and Guide, as well as Pioneer and Navigator - the two classes developed by the Florida Conference. These two classes are not officially recognized by the NAD, but I find that they provide engagement for older Pathfinders.

In the last couple of years, I have served as the Secretary for the Central NH Flames. I developed an attendance tracking system using Google Docs and Forms, and I also developed a series of binders for the instructors for each of the classes. These binders contain not only the books for each class but also honors and other reference materials - which provide the instructor with many of the resources they need all in one place. All of these resources are available online - I merely compiled them.

==Then, and Now==
I won't bore you with all the details, but I think this degree will be of much more use to me. I've recently returned to the East Coast, and gotten involved in Pathfinders again... and it feels almost like I never left. That to me is one of the most wonderful feelings in the world... to be welcomed back by friends you haven't seen in well over half a decade, and it's like you never left.

One of the things that I'm really looking forward to is sharing my knowledge here on the wiki for other Pathfinders, staff, and Master Guides. I feel that is how I can minister in my own right.

Bluescifiworm: /* Vocational [Technichian Master] */

[[File:PF profile.jpg|200px|right]]
[[File:2018 cg.png|200px|right]]
[[File:Cailin-grad2012.png|200px|right]]

==Why Bluescifiworm?==
The tag bluescifiworm has a bit of a history behind it. Originally, I picked it because it was unique (You know how hard it is to come up with something no one else has used as a online tag?). I chose it because of the following reasons.

# I like the color blue.
# I love reading scifi books, specifically, ''Star Trek'', ''Star Wars'', ''Honor Harrington'' series (by David Weber), and Anne McCaffrey's ''Dragonriders of Pern'' series.
# I'm a bit of a bookworm. Well, maybe a '''lot''' of a bookworm ;)

==A bit of background==
My name is Cailin. I am 34 years old. In May of 2012, I completed a Bachelor of Science degree at Tarleton State University in Horticulture and Landscape Management with a Business Administration minor. I also hold an Associate of Science in Graphic Design. Some may ask... "Why change fields?" Well, the answer for that is a tad bit complex. At the time I was working on my AS, Graphic Design was a highly sought-after skill, and I found myself to be reasonably skilled with it. It is difficult, however, to find a job when people are starting to be able to do this kind of work for themselves. I spent over a year looking without much success. I then moved around a bit, finally ending up in Texas during the late summer of 2006. I did find some work, but it wasn't what I was really wanting, or what made good use of my skills. After that, I spent 6 months in AmeriCorps and then 8 months working for the IRS, then I decided to go back to school. My stint in AmeriCorps had rekindled my love for the outdoors that I'd had growing up.

==Pathfinders==
I was in Pathfinders from 1998 to about 2005. In that time, I was active in two clubs - Merrimack Valley (Manchester) and then Portsmouth Living Waters. I started Pathfinders in Merrimack Valley when Pathfinders still had the green pants and skirts. It was a BIG change uniform wise to go from green and khaki to black and khaki, but I have to admit, it looks a lot sharper, and we look less like Boy Scouts. That is not to say, however, that I dislike Boy Scouts as an organization. I think they are a wonderful group of people, and when I was younger, I had the opportunity to interact with quite a few. The summer camp I went to for physically challenged kids was on a Boy Scout reservation.

During my time in Pathfinders, I completed many honors, and 3 classes (now called Investiture Achievements) and began work on my Master Guide requirements as well as completing the full four years of the TLT (Teen Leadership Training) program. In 2004, I had the opportunity to travel to the 2004 "Faith on Fire" International Pathfinder Camporee in Oskkosh, WI. with the Portsmouth Living Waters. '''That''' was something I will never forget. I thought I would have to start my Master Guide over again when I returned to Pathfindering after a 6-year absence (in 2012), but I worked closely with others in my local club to complete the remaining requirements.

I completed my Master Guide in May of 2013 and was invested on June 1st, 2013. I'm so glad to have it finally finished. It was a long time coming. But, with the encouragement and help of many people, I have finally completed it. Master Guide is roughly equivalent to Eagle Scout in Boy Scouts.

More recently, I've been an active member of the staff for the Central NH Flames Pathfinders, which is part of the Northern New England Conference. I've taught Explorer and Guide, as well as Pioneer and Navigator - the two classes developed by the Florida Conference. These two classes are not officially recognized by the NAD, but I find that they provide engagement for older Pathfinders.

In the last couple of years, I have served as the Secretary for the Central NH Flames. I developed an attendance tracking system using Google Docs and Forms, and I also developed a series of binders for the instructors for each of the classes. These binders contain not only the books for each class but also honors and other reference materials - which provide the instructor with many of the resources they need all in one place. All of these resources are available online - I merely compiled them.

I've taught Explorer and Guide, as well as Pioneer and Navigator - the two classes developed by the Florida Conference. These two classes are not officially recognized by the NAD, but I find that they provide engagement for older Pathfinders.

In the last couple of years, I have served as the Secretary for the Central NH Flames. I developed an attendance tracking system using Google Docs and Forms, and I also developed a series of binders for the instructors for each of the classes. These binders contain not only the books for each class but also honors and other reference materials - which provide the instructor with many of the resources they need all in one place. All of these resources are available online - I merely compiled them.

==Then, and Now==
I won't bore you with all the details, but I think this degree will be of much more use to me. I've recently returned to the East Coast, and gotten involved in Pathfinders again... and it feels almost like I never left. That to me is one of the most wonderful feelings in the world... to be welcomed back by friends you haven't seen in well over half a decade, and it's like you never left.

One of the things that I'm really looking forward to is sharing my knowledge here on the wiki for other Pathfinders, staff, and Master Guides. I feel that is how I can minister in my own right.

==Messages==
If you need to contact me with a question or comment, please do so here on the Discussion Section of my User Page, or leave a comment on the Talk page of the Honor or IA class I've been working on. You can check this by looking at my current list of projects here on this page, or checking the edit history of any Honor page. I do try to watch pages I work on frequently.

They now have a purple background instead of dark blue, though many Pathfinders (including me!) have the older patches from before the change went into effect. The '''Spiritual Growth and Ministries Master Award'''[http://wiki.pathfindersonline.org/w/Category:Adventist_Youth_Honors_Answer_Book/Spiritual_Growth_and_Ministries_Master_Award] has replaced the '''Witnessing Master Award'''.

Bluescifiworm: /* Vocational [Technichian Master] */

[[File:PF profile.jpg|200px|right]]
[[File:2018 cg.png|200px|right]]
[[File:Cailin-grad2012.png|200px|right]]

==Why Bluescifiworm?==
The tag bluescifiworm has a bit of a history behind it. Originally, I picked it because it was unique (You know how hard it is to come up with something no one else has used as a online tag?). I chose it because of the following reasons.

# I like the color blue.
# I love reading scifi books, specifically, ''Star Trek'', ''Star Wars'', ''Honor Harrington'' series (by David Weber), and Anne McCaffrey's ''Dragonriders of Pern'' series.
# I'm a bit of a bookworm. Well, maybe a '''lot''' of a bookworm ;)

==A bit of background==
My name is Cailin. I am 34 years old. In May of 2012, I completed a Bachelor of Science degree at Tarleton State University in Horticulture and Landscape Management with a Business Administration minor. I also hold an Associate of Science in Graphic Design. Some may ask... "Why change fields?" Well, the answer for that is a tad bit complex. At the time I was working on my AS, Graphic Design was a highly sought-after skill, and I found myself to be reasonably skilled with it. It is difficult, however, to find a job when people are starting to be able to do this kind of work for themselves. I spent over a year looking without much success. I then moved around a bit, finally ending up in Texas during the late summer of 2006. I did find some work, but it wasn't what I was really wanting, or what made good use of my skills. After that, I spent 6 months in AmeriCorps and then 8 months working for the IRS, then I decided to go back to school. My stint in AmeriCorps had rekindled my love for the outdoors that I'd had growing up.

==Pathfinders==
I was in Pathfinders from 1998 to about 2005. In that time, I was active in two clubs - Merrimack Valley (Manchester) and then Portsmouth Living Waters. I started Pathfinders in Merrimack Valley when Pathfinders still had the green pants and skirts. It was a BIG change uniform wise to go from green and khaki to black and khaki, but I have to admit, it looks a lot sharper, and we look less like Boy Scouts. That is not to say, however, that I dislike Boy Scouts as an organization. I think they are a wonderful group of people, and when I was younger, I had the opportunity to interact with quite a few. The summer camp I went to for physically challenged kids was on a Boy Scout reservation.

During my time in Pathfinders, I completed many honors, and 3 classes (now called Investiture Achievements) and began work on my Master Guide requirements as well as completing the full four years of the TLT (Teen Leadership Training) program. In 2004, I had the opportunity to travel to the 2004 "Faith on Fire" International Pathfinder Camporee in Oskkosh, WI. with the Portsmouth Living Waters. '''That''' was something I will never forget. I thought I would have to start my Master Guide over again when I returned to Pathfindering after a 6-year absence (in 2012), but I worked closely with others in my local club to complete the remaining requirements.

I completed my Master Guide in May of 2013 and was invested on June 1st, 2013. I'm so glad to have it finally finished. It was a long time coming. But, with the encouragement and help of many people, I have finally completed it. Master Guide is roughly equivalent to Eagle Scout in Boy Scouts.

More recently, I've been an active member of the staff for the Central NH Flames Pathfinders, which is part of the Northern New England Conference. I've taught Explorer and Guide, as well as Pioneer and Navigator - the two classes developed by the Florida Conference. These two classes are not officially recognized by the NAD, but I find that they provide engagement for older Pathfinders.

In the last couple of years, I have served as the Secretary for the Central NH Flames. I developed an attendance tracking system using Google Docs and Forms, and I also developed a series of binders for the instructors for each of the classes. These binders contain not only the books for each class but also honors and other reference materials - which provide the instructor with many of the resources they need all in one place. All of these resources are available online - I merely compiled them.

== 1. Why are bats classified as mammals and not birds? == 
Here are some identifiers for mammals, birds, and bats. After examining the list, it should be rather obvious how much more like mammals bats are:


'''Mammals:'''
*'''Fur'''
*'''Bear live young (except platypus)'''
*'''The babies nurse from their mother'''
*'''They are Warm-blooded'''
*'''Four legs often with toes and/or "hands" and "feet"'''


'''Bats:'''
*'''They have fur or hair'''
*'''A baby bat is born alive'''
*'''The babies nurse from their mother'''
*'''They are Warm-blooded'''
*'''Bats have arms, hands and feet'''


'''Birds:'''
*'''Birds have feathers, not fur or hair'''
*'''They are hatched from eggs'''
*'''The babies are fed from mom's mouth'''
*'''They have wings, but not hands and fingers'''

== 2. What is the main characteristic that separates bats from all other mammals? == 
Bats are the ''only'' mammal that can truly fly (others species such as the flying squirrels actually glide instead of fly).

== 3. What is the name of the order that bats belong to and what does it mean? == 
Bats are in the order Chiroptera, which literally means "hand-wing" in Latin. This name makes sense because a bat's wings stretch over the forearm and fingers, and attach down at the ankle bones. The name is from the Greek, Cheir=hand; Pteron=wing. They got this name when scientists noticed that they fly with a modified hand.

== 4. What are the largest and smallest bats and where do they live? == 
*'''Largest:''' The biggest flying mammals are the Flying Foxes, particularly those living in Asia and Australia. Several species have a length of 45 cm (17.7 in), a wingspan of 1.7 m (5 ft 7 in), and a weight of 1.6 kg (3.5 lb). The Indian Flying Fox in particular has been known to attain a wingspan of 6 feet.
*'''Smallest:''' The world's smallest bat is the Kitti's Hog-Nosed Bat (a.k.a. The Bumblebee Bat) of Thailand. Weighing less than a penny and with a wingspan of less than 5 inches it is also the worlds smallest mammal.

== 5. How many different types of bats are there worldwide? == 
There are approximately 1000 species of bats in the world, and bats live on every continent except Antarctica. There are approximately 825 species of Micro-chiroptera worldwide, and about 175 species of Mega-chiroptera.

== 6. Bats are divided into two (2) suborders. What are their names? == 
*'''a. Mega-chiroptera'''


*'''b. Micro-chiroptera'''

== 7. Which suborder of bats uses echolocation and which suborder uses eyesight to find their food? == 
*'''a. Megabats:''' Use eyesight.


*'''b. Microbats:''' Use echolocation. (Bats send out sound waves using their mouth or nose. When the sound hits an object an echo comes back. The bat can identify an object by the sound of the echo. They can even tell the size, shape and texture of a tiny insect from its echo. Most bats use echolocation to navigate in the dark and find food.)

== 8. What is the diet of the Megabats? == 
The megabats are called fruit bats because many of them eat fruit, nectar, and pollen.

== 9. What is the diet of the Microbats? == 
The microbats are generally insect-eating, although they tend to have a much more varied diet than the megabats. Besides Insects, microbats eat anything from nectar and fruit like megabats, fish, small mammals and birds, and even blood.

== 10. How many babies does a bat have each year and what are the babies called? == 
Most bats have one baby per year, though some have twins or triplets. Baby bats are called pups.

== 11. Find three Bible texts that mention bats. == 
'''Leviticus 11:19:''' The stork, any kind of heron, the hoopoe and the bat. (Unclean animals you should not eat)


'''Deuteronomy 14:18:''' The stork, any kind of heron, the hoopoe and the bat.


'''Isaiah 2:20:''' In that day men will throw away to the rodents and bats their idols of silver and idols of gold, which they made to worship.

=== Which text uses bats in an end-time prophecy? === 
'''Isaiah 2:20:''' In that day men will throw away to the rodents and bats their idols of silver and idols of gold, which they made to worship.

== 12. Do bats hibernate or migrate for the winter? == 
In the cold climates bats either hibernate or migrate to warmer locations. Bats living in the tropical zones stay active year round.

== 13. Name the parts of a bat. == 
Knee, tail membrane, tail, calcal, foot, wing membrane, fingers, wrist, ear, tragus, forearm, thumb.


The '''calcal''' is a bony structure connecting the leg to the tail.<br>
The '''tragus''' is a feature bats have in common with humans, being the fleshy part of the ear above the lobe and next to the temple.


[[Image:Batlook3.jpg|Parts of a Bat]]

== 14. How many insects can a bat eat in an hour? == 
600 - 1,000 insects per hour according to their body weight. A single brown bat can eat 1,200 insects per hour.

== 15. What are the two (2) main benefits bats provide for man? == 
*'''a. Eat insects.''' A single brown bat can eat 1,200 insects per hour (3,000 - 7,000 per night). Bats eat such harmful insects such as cockroaches, mosquitoes, and gnats. Large colonies of bats can consume many insects that would otherwise harm farmers' crops.


*'''b. Pollinate and spread seeds.''' Bats serve as food plant pollinators.


*'''c. Provide outlet for medical research.''' Their echolocation skills have been studied to help medical professionals help the blind. A chemical agent in the saliva of the common vampire bat, Draculin, is being tested for use in helping stroke victims.

== 16. Build or purchase a bat box, know the best place to put it and install it at a home, church, or your school. Record for 3 months what kind and how many bats have made it their home. == 
You can find online plans to build your own bat house here:
http://www.batcon.org/bhra/economyhouse.html

You can also find instructions here if the first link doesn't work:
https://www.nwf.org/garden-for-wildlife/cover/build-a-bat-house


For best results, the roosting chamber should be at least 50 cm (20 in) wide, 70 cm (24 in) high, and about 2 cm (3/4 in) deep on the inside. It should have an open bottom and a roof. The inside should be roughened with horizontal saw cuts or lined with a plastic mesh so the bats will have something to grab on to. Do not make the bat box from pressure-treated wood, but do use outdoor grade plywood or cedar. A roof will certainly help preserve the bat box, especially if covered with asphalt shingle or with metal. Caulk the box to prevent drafts since bats, like you, like a draft-free home. Painting your box an appropriate color increases success. Lighter colors in hot climates and dark or black in cooler areas. You might experiment with different colors on boxes to see what the bats like.


It should ideally be mounted on a building where it can more readily absorb heat, or on a pole. Mounting a bat box in a tree will ensure that '''no''' bats move in. The bat box should be mounted away from trees and utility wires where bat predators (hawks, owls, etc.) may roost. The bat box should be at least 12 feet from the ground.


3 months is a very short time for observation because it may take several years to attract bats. Batcon.org regularly updates its guide to bat houses based on volunteer research (which you can help with). The design, finishing, and placement of the bat box will determine the success so read the guide carefully and experiment to see what attracts bats. The color of the house and the amount of sun make a big difference. Research shows multiple boxes near each other will greatly increase your success rate. Placing bat boxes in an area that already has bats (especially that are using a building) will help. Consider contacting pest control companies to find a building owner that wants to exclude bats and set up your bat boxes as an alternative. The location is already proven and you will be providing needed homes for the bats. Properly placed bat houses can find success in almost all climates.


Once you have bats in the box, you can check the box by shining a flashlight inside from the bottom. If you attract pups, you can see them after the mothers leave in the evening. You can also count the bats as they depart at dusk.


Attracting bats with bat houses provides several benefits. You increase biodiversity while keeping bats out of buildings where they can damage the structure. Bats eat insects and reduced insects will make your backyard more enjoyable. Batcon.org has some great case studies of organic farmers who have used bats to combat crop-destroying insect pests.


The effort to put up the bat box and monitor it is the most time-consuming part of this honor. The Advanced Honor is well worth doing because it covers additional interesting bat facts.

Bluescifiworm: /* Household Arts [Homemaking Master] */

[[File:PF profile.jpg|200px|right]]
[[File:2018 cg.png|200px|right]]
[[File:Cailin-grad2012.png|200px|right]]

==Why Bluescifiworm?==
The tag bluescifiworm has a bit of a history behind it. Originally, I picked it because it was unique (You know how hard it is to come up with something no one else has used as a online tag?). I chose it because of the following reasons.

# I like the color blue.
# I love reading scifi books, specifically, ''Star Trek'', ''Star Wars'', ''Honor Harrington'' series (by David Weber), and Anne McCaffrey's ''Dragonriders of Pern'' series.
# I'm a bit of a bookworm. Well, maybe a '''lot''' of a bookworm ;)

==A bit of background==
My name is Cailin. I am 34 years old. In May of 2012, I completed a Bachelor of Science degree at Tarleton State University in Horticulture and Landscape Management with a Business Administration minor. I also hold an Associate of Science in Graphic Design. Some may ask... "Why change fields?" Well, the answer for that is a tad bit complex. At the time I was working on my AS, Graphic Design was a highly sought-after skill, and I found myself to be reasonably skilled with it. It is difficult, however, to find a job when people are starting to be able to do this kind of work for themselves. I spent over a year looking without much success. I then moved around a bit, finally ending up in Texas during the late summer of 2006. I did find some work, but it wasn't what I was really wanting, or what made good use of my skills. After that, I spent 6 months in AmeriCorps and then 8 months working for the IRS, then I decided to go back to school. My stint in AmeriCorps had rekindled my love for the outdoors that I'd had growing up.

==Pathfinders==
I was in Pathfinders from 1998 to about 2005. In that time, I was active in two clubs - Merrimack Valley (Manchester) and then Portsmouth Living Waters. I started Pathfinders in Merrimack Valley when Pathfinders still had the green pants and skirts. It was a BIG change uniform wise to go from green and khaki to black and khaki, but I have to admit, it looks a lot sharper, and we look less like Boy Scouts. That is not to say, however, that I dislike Boy Scouts as an organization. I think they are a wonderful group of people, and when I was younger, I had the opportunity to interact with quite a few. The summer camp I went to for physically challenged kids was on a Boy Scout reservation.

During my time in Pathfinders, I completed many honors, and 3 classes (now called Investiture Achievements) and began work on my Master Guide requirements as well as completing the full four years of the TLT (Teen Leadership Training) program. In 2004, I had the opportunity to travel to the 2004 "Faith on Fire" International Pathfinder Camporee in Oskkosh, WI. with the Portsmouth Living Waters. '''That''' was something I will never forget. I thought I would have to start my Master Guide over again when I returned to Pathfindering after a 6-year absence (in 2012), but I worked closely with others in my local club to complete the remaining requirements.

I completed my Master Guide in May of 2013 and was invested on June 1st, 2013. I'm so glad to have it finally finished. It was a long time coming. But, with the encouragement and help of many people, I have finally completed it. Master Guide is roughly equivalent to Eagle Scout in Boy Scouts.

More recently, I've been an active member of the staff for the Central NH Flames Pathfinders, which is part of the Northern New England Conference. I've taught Explorer and Guide, as well as Pioneer and Navigator - the two classes developed by the Florida Conference. These two classes are not officially recognized by the NAD, but I find that they provide engagement for older Pathfinders.

In the last couple of years, I have served as the Secretary for the Central NH Flames. I developed an attendance tracking system using Google Docs and Forms, and I also developed a series of binders for the instructors for each of the classes. These binders contain not only the books for each class but also honors and other reference materials - which provide the instructor with many of the resources they need all in one place. All of these resources are available online - I merely compiled them.

==Then, and Now==
I won't bore you with all the details, but I think this degree will be of much more use to me. I've recently returned to the East Coast, and gotten involved in Pathfinders again... and it feels almost like I never left. That to me is one of the most wonderful feelings in the world... to be welcomed back by friends you haven't seen in well over half a decade, and it's like you never left.

One of the things that I'm really looking forward to is sharing my knowledge here on the wiki for other Pathfinders, staff, and Master Guides. I feel that is how I can minister in my own right.

==Why Bluescifiworm?==
The tag bluescifiworm has a bit of a history behind it. Originally, I picked it because it was unique (You know how hard it is to come up with something no one else has used as a online tag?). I chose it because of the following reasons.

# I like the color blue.
# I love reading scifi books, specifically, ''Star Trek'', ''Star Wars'', ''Honor Harrington'' series (by David Weber), and Anne McCaffrey's ''Dragonriders of Pern'' series.
# I'm a bit of a bookworm. Well, maybe a '''lot''' of a bookworm ;)

==A bit of background==
My name is Cailin. I am 34 years old. In May of 2012, I completed a Bachelor of Science degree at Tarleton State University in Horticulture and Landscape Management with a Business Administration minor. I also hold an Associate of Science in Graphic Design. Some may ask... "Why change fields?" Well, the answer for that is a tad bit complex. At the time I was working on my AS, Graphic Design was a highly sought-after skill, and I found myself to be reasonably skilled with it. It is difficult, however, to find a job when people are starting to be able to do this kind of work for themselves. I spent over a year looking without much success. I then moved around a bit, finally ending up in Texas during the late summer of 2006. I did find some work, but it wasn't what I was really wanting, or what made good use of my skills. After that, I spent 6 months in AmeriCorps and then 8 months working for the IRS, then I decided to go back to school. My stint in AmeriCorps had rekindled my love for the outdoors that I'd had growing up.

==Pathfinders==
I was in Pathfinders from 1998 to about 2005. In that time, I was active in two clubs - Merrimack Valley (Manchester) and then Portsmouth Living Waters. I started Pathfinders in Merrimack Valley when Pathfinders still had the green pants and skirts. It was a BIG change uniform wise to go from green and khaki to black and khaki, but I have to admit, it looks a lot sharper, and we look less like Boy Scouts. That is not to say, however, that I dislike Boy Scouts as an organization. I think they are a wonderful group of people, and when I was younger, I had the opportunity to interact with quite a few. The summer camp I went to for physically challenged kids was on a Boy Scout reservation.

During my time in Pathfinders, I completed many honors, and 3 classes (now called Investiture Achievements) and began work on my Master Guide requirements as well as completing the full four years of the TLT (Teen Leadership Training) program. In 2004, I had the opportunity to travel to the 2004 "Faith on Fire" International Pathfinder Camporee in Oskkosh, WI. with the Portsmouth Living Waters. '''That''' was something I will never forget. I thought I would have to start my Master Guide over again when I returned to Pathfindering after a 6-year absence (in 2012), but I worked closely with others in my local club to complete the remaining requirements.

I completed my Master Guide in May of 2013 and was invested on June 1st, 2013. I'm so glad to have it finally finished. It was a long time coming. But, with the encouragement and help of many people, I have finally completed it. Master Guide is roughly equivalent to Eagle Scout in Boy Scouts.

More recently, I've been an active member of the staff for the Central NH Flames Pathfinders, which is part of the Northern New England Conference. I've taught Explorer and Guide, as well as Pioneer and Navigator - the two classes developed by the Florida Conference. These two classes are not officially recognized by the NAD, but I find that they provide engagement for older Pathfinders.

In the last couple of years, I have served as the Secretary for the Central NH Flames. I developed an attendance tracking system using Google Docs and Forms, and I also developed a series of binders for the instructors for each of the classes. These binders contain not only the books for each class but also honors and other reference materials - which provide the instructor with many of the resources they need all in one place. All of these resources are available online - I merely compiled them.

In the last couple of years, I have served as the Secretary for the Central NH Flames. I developed an attendance tracking system using Google Docs and Forms, and I also developed a series of binders for the instructors for each of the classes. These binders contain not only the books for each class but also honors and other reference materials - which provide the instructor with many of the resources they need all in one place. All of these resources are available online - I merely compiled them.

==Then, and Now==
I won't bore you with all the details, but I think this degree will be of much more use to me. I've recently returned to the East Coast, and gotten involved in Pathfinders again... and it feels almost like I never left. That to me is one of the most wonderful feelings in the world... to be welcomed back by friends you haven't seen in well over half a decade, and it's like you never left.

One of the things that I'm really looking forward to is sharing my knowledge here on the wiki for other Pathfinders, staff, and Master Guides. I feel that is how I can minister in my own right.

==Messages==
If you need to contact me with a question or comment, please do so here on the Discussion Section of my User Page, or leave a comment on the Talk page of the Honor or IA class I've been working on. You can check this by looking at my current list of projects here on this page, or checking the edit history of any Honor page. I do try to watch pages I work on frequently.

==Important Notes==
Basic Rescue[http://www.investitureachievement.org/wiki/index.php/Adventist_Youth_Honors_Answer_Book/Health_and_Science/Basic_Rescue] , CPR[http://www.investitureachievement.org/wiki/index.php/Adventist_Youth_Honors_Answer_Book/Health_and_Science/CPR], and Red Alert [http://www.investitureachievement.org/wiki/index.php/Adventist_Youth_Honors_Answer_Book/Health_and_Science/Red_Alert] were moved from '''Outreach''' [now '''Spiritual Growth and Ministries, and Outreach'''] to the '''Health and Science''' category. They now have a purple background instead of dark blue, though many Pathfinders (including me!) have the older patches from before the change went into effect. The '''Spiritual Growth and Ministries Master Award'''[http://wiki.pathfindersonline.org/w/Category:Adventist_Youth_Honors_Answer_Book/Spiritual_Growth_and_Ministries_Master_Award] has replaced the '''Witnessing Master Award'''.

|skill=2
|year=2014
|category=Arts and Crafts
|authority=General Conference
|insignia=Pin Trading Advanced.png}}

==1. Have the Pin Trading Honor.== 
{{honor_prerequisite|category=Arts and Crafts|honor=Pin Trading}}

==2. Identify factors that determine the cost and value of a pin.== 
Having a knowledge of the cost and value of pins can empower you by helping you to know how to make a fair trade and to decrease the chances of your being taken advantage of by others.


COST is determined by:
* Quality of the pin/what material it is made from: Metal pins costs more than plastic pins; there are different qualities of metal pins; buttons or handmade pins are usually less expensive.
* Size: Bigger pins cost more than smaller pins.
* The number of colors used: The addition of more colors can sometimes add to the cost.
* The type and number of pin backs used to hold it on: Locking clutches cost more than rubber or butterfly clutches; two pin backs cost more than one pin back.
* Accessories or embellishments, such as spinners, danglers, etc.: These can add to the cost of a pin.


VALUE may be determined by:
* The cost and quality of a pin.
* How rare a pin is or how difficult it is to get.
* How beautiful or interesting or desirable the pin is to YOU, regardless of the cost or quality.
Ultimately, YOU are the one who places value on a pin based on how much you like the pin, how special it is to you for whatever reason, and how much you are willing to trade for it. Just because someone tells you that a pin is valuable because not very many were made doesn’t necessarily make it valuable to YOU if it’s not a pin that you like or want to add to your collection.

==3. Describe the following types of pins:== 
===a. Cloisonné===
Cloisonné pins continue the fine-art tradition of glass enameling started in China centuries ago. The pins are made by hand-pouring powdered glass into the recesses of a die struck brass base. The brass can be plated in gold, silver, nickel, black nickel or bronze. After being baked at a very high temperature, the glass enamel is sanded and polished to be flush with the metal lines that separate the colors. This gives the pins a smooth and lustrous quality. Colors are limited with this technique.

===b. Die Cast=== 
Die cast pins are created by injecting liquid metal into a rubber mold which is then spun at a high revolution to ensure uniformity. As the metal cools and hardens, the lapel pins get their shape. Die cast pins can have intricate cut-outs and three-dimensional sculpturing that is not achievable with die struck pins.

===c. Die Struck=== 
The basic die struck pin is made by stamping an image onto a sheet of metal, cutting it out, and then plating it in a gold, silver, or nickel finish, giving it a classic dimensional look without adding color. The recessed areas can be antiqued or sandblasted to add texture, while the raised-relief areas can be polished.
===d. Hard Enamel===
Hard enamel pins are made in the same technique as the cloisonné, but the recessed spaces are filled with a hard enamel paint rather than glass. The pin is heated to a very high temperature to harden or cure the paint, and then it is polished smooth. The paint and the metal borders/ridges are at the same level. If you rub your thumb over a hard enamel pin it will feel smooth and you will not feel the metal borders/ridges. The hard enamel filling gives a beautiful, high quality look similar to that of the cloisonné, but at a lower price and with more color options.

===e. Offset Printed=== 
The offset printing process produces a full-color reproduction of a photograph or full-color artwork with outstanding detail and accuracy. A protective coating seals the design and protects it from scratching and fading.

===f. Photo Etched=== 
Photo etched pins are made by using an acid-reaction process to transfer the image onto a thin metal plate. Each color is then applied by hand to the pins, and finally the pin is cut out from the metal sheet. Photo etched pins tend to be thinner than other metal pins.

===g. Silk Screened=== 
Similar to photographic (offset printed) pins, silk screen pins produce an exact replica of a design on the pin with a great deal of detail and full color. The process of creating silk screen lapel pins is almost identical to that of silk screen t-shirts. A base coat is laid over the pins, then one at a time, each color is pressed through a screen with the help of a roller and allowed to dry. When each color has been applied, a protective coating seals the design and protects it from scratching and fading.

===h. Soft Enamel=== 
Soft enamel pins are die struck pins with the recessed areas filled with paint. They are air dried which causes the paint to settle, creating a dimensional look, meaning the paint is at a lower level than the metal borders surrounding each color. If you rub your thumb over a soft enamel pin you will feel the metal ridges. This type of pin is a less expensive version of a hard enamel pin.

==4. What is an epoxy dome, and what are its advantages and disadvantages?== 
An epoxy dome is a clear plastic coating that can be added as an option to soft enamel or photo etched pins, providing a lustrous shine and adding additional depth to the overall design of the pin. Silk screened and offset printed designs can be very delicate, so these pin types have an epoxy dome which acts as a barrier to protect the pin design from being scratched or scraped off. Disadvantages are that they tend to turn yellow over time, and occasionally they come off.

==5. Identify the following types of pin accessories or embellishments:== 
===a. Blinker===
A pin that has a blinking LED light or lights added. It has one or more batteries which makes it a fatter pin.

===b. Bobble Head=== 
A second pin attached to the main pin with a spring so that it “bobbles” or moves.

===c. Dangler=== 
A second pin attached to the main pin by one or more rings or a small chain.

===d. Glitter=== 
Sparkly colors added to a pin.

===e. Rhinestones=== 
One or more fake gemstones attached to a pin.

===f. Slider=== 
A second pin that slides along a slot cut in the main pin that gives a sense of action.

===g. Spinner=== 
A second pin attached to the main pin that can be spun around with your finger.

===h. Twirler=== 
A second pin attached to the main pin by a post so it can be twirled front to back with your finger.

==6. Identify the following types of pin backs, and demonstrate or describe how to safely attach and remove them:== 

===a. Locking Clutch=== 
To attach: Carefully align the hole on the bottom of the clutch with the point of the pin and push clutch straight down while pulling up slightly on the spring-loaded top part.
To remove: While holding the bottom part of the clutch down, pull up on the spring-loaded top part, then slide the clutch off of the pin.

===b. Locking Safety Pin Clasp=== 
To attach: Make sure lock is rolled to the “open” position, push the long stick pin down and into the slot, then roll the lock to the other side to lock the pin in place.
To remove: Roll the lock to the “open” position and push the long stick pin down and out of the slot.

===c. Magnetic Back=== 
To attach: Line magnet up with metal back until they join together.
To remove: Pull magnet apart from metal back.

===d. Safety Pin Clasp=== 
To attach: Push the long stick pin down and under the hook.
To remove: Push the long stick pin down and out from under the hook.

==7. Discuss how the “Golden Rule” applies to pin trading etiquette.== 


The Golden Rule comes from Matthew 7:12:
{{Bible verse
|book=Matthew
|chapter=7
|verse=12
|version=NIV
|text=
“So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the Law and the Prophets.”
}}
When pin trading, you should always treat other pin traders the same way you want to be treated. If you don’t want to receive a broken pin, then don’t give someone else a broken pin. If you don’t want your pins stolen, then don’t steal someone else’s pins. If you don’t want to be pressured to trade a pin, then don’t pressure someone
else. If you don’t like being interrupted during a trade, then don’t interrupt others. If you don’t like people grabbing or touching your pins without permission, then don’t do that to others.

==8. Complete two of the following activities related to pin trading:== 
===a. Collect a complete “set” of pins at one of the pin trading venues.===
If you are trying to collect a complete set of pins, it is important to find out how many pins there are in the set you are interested in. Sets may range in size from two pins to ten or more pins. In some sets, the pins are all alike except that they come in a number of different colors, and sometimes there may be one special pin that contains all the colors. In other sets, each pin in the set is different. In some sets, each pin can stand alone, and in other sets, you need the whole set in order to have a complete picture, because the pieces fit together like a puzzle. Sometimes one pin in the set will have a higher value than the other pins in the set because there were fewer made, and so it is harder to find. You may have to trade extra pins to get that
one more valuable pin in order to complete the set.

===b. Collect at least two free pins from exhibit booths at a camporee, convention, trade show, or other event.=== 
Trade shows, conventions, or special events often have exhibit booths that give out free items, and some of these booths may give out free pins. SDA organizations and institutions, such as academies, colleges, universities, TV stations, ADRA, food industries, or publishing institutions often set up exhibit booths at places such as Pathfinder Camporees, Camp Meetings, ASI, or General Conference sessions, and some of these booths may give out free pins. This is a great way to get some free pins for trading.

===c. Make a pin display book for displaying your collection of pins.=== 
One way to do this is to buy pieces of felt or craft foam, put tape along one edge to make it stronger, then punch holes in the edge with the tape. You can then put the pages in a three-ring binder. It is a good idea to put extra felt or foam pages between the pin pages so your pins won't get scratched. If you like you can decorate your binder. Or you can come up with your own design for making a pin book.

===d. Make two or more handmade pins for trading.=== 
You can make your own pins for trading. You can turn just about any small item into a pin by attaching a pin back or safety pin to it. Pin backs can be purchased online or at a craft store. One idea is to make beaded safety pin designs. If you do an Internet search for “beaded safety pin flags” or “beaded safety pin patterns” you can find lots of free patterns for flags or other fun designs. For more ideas on how to make other handmade pins, you can do an Internet search for “Girl Scout SWAPS.” Get creative!

===e. Set up a display of your pin collection at church for Pathfinder Sabbath, at a Pathfinder Fair, or at another event like a state or county fair.=== 
If you want to display your pins for Pathfinder Sabbath or at a Pathfinder Fair, check with your Pathfinder Director to see if you can do this. Set up your display of pins in an appealing way so you can get other Pathfinders or Adventurers excited about getting the Pin Trading Honor someday. If your state or county has a fair, you may be able to display your collection of pins there.

===f. Submit a design to your club or conference for a camporee trading pin.=== 
If your club or conference is planning to design a pin for a camporee, and if you are creative and have a good idea, you can draw your design and submit it to your club or conference. This requirement will be fulfilled just by submitting your design, even if your club or conference chooses a different design to actually use for the pin.

===g. Write two or more letters to your city, state, or province, or to companies that sponsor sporting events or the Olympics, and ask if they have pins. If they send you a free pin(s), be sure to follow up with a thank-you letter.=== 
===Tips for Writing Letters===
* Many companies and organizations will send you a free pin(s) by simply writing them a letter.
* Get your parents or Pathfinder staff to help you find the names and addresses for sports
associations or federations, National Olympics Committees, and companies who sponsor events like the Olympics or other sporting events. Many will send you a free pin if you write and ask.
* You can go to the Olympics web site and see who the sponsor companies are.
* The more letters you send, the more free pins you are likely to receive. One girl wrote to 77 companies, and 55 of them sent her over 250 pins!
* Write your letter by hand and send it the old-fashioned way, in a stamped envelope.
* Tell the company how old you are, what you like to do, what you like to collect, and that you would love to have one of their pins.
* Always offer to pay for the pin. Most companies will not ask you to pay but will send you a pin for free.
* If you are writing to other countries, make the letter simple and try to say something nice about
their country. It helps you learn about other countries too.
* If you are writing to other countries, be sure to use the proper amount of postage. (Check wit the Post Office.)
* If you ask nicely, the pins will start coming. Then it's so much fun to get mail!
* Always be sure to write a thank you note if you get a free pin.

==9. Do one of the following to help a new pin trader, then discuss your experience with someone else or in a group:== 
===a. Be an advocate for a new pin trader and help in the trade using the “Fun, Fair, and Friendly” principles of etiquette.===


;ADVOCATE: A person who speaks or writes in support or defense of a person, cause, etc.; a person who pleads for or in behalf of another; intercessor.


If you observe someone trying to take advantage of another, respectfully approach them and remind them of the reasons why we engage in pin trading. Help in the trade so that everyone ends up happy. It’s not fun to be pressured into a trade. It’s only a good trade if both parties are satisfied after the trade. It is always acceptable to suggest another pin or to politely say, “No thanks,” if you are not happy with the proposed trade. Always encourage young and new traders when you can.

===b. Give away one of your pins to a new pin trader in order to help him or her get started in pin trading.=== 
As you get more pins, try giving some away. You will discover that it can be as much or more fun to give pins away as it is to add pins to your collection. The Bible says that it is more blessed to give than to receive. Making others happy is very rewarding!

==10. Trade pins with at least fifteen people you don’t know at a venue or event where pin trading takes place, using the “Fun, Fair, Friendly” principles of etiquette. Keep a diary of the people you trade pins with and any interesting things that happen during your pin trading experiences.== 
This can take place at a Pathfinder camporee, Disneyland/Disney World, the Rose Parade, the Olympics, sporting events, or any other venue where pin trading takes place. Remember to talk to the people you are trading with and to practice the “Fun, Fair, and Friendly” rules of etiquette that you learned. Learn interesting things about the people you trade with like their name, where they are from, how long they’ve been trading pins, what they like to collect, etc. Having a diary will help you remember to talk to the people you trade with. You can make your diary as elaborate or as simple as you want.

Bluescifiworm: /* Pathfinders */

[[File:Cailin-grad2012.png|200px|right]]

==Why Bluescifiworm?==
The tag bluescifiworm has a bit of a history behind it. Originally, I picked it because it was unique (You know how hard it is to come up with something no one else has used as a online tag?). I chose it because of the following reasons.

# I like the color blue.
# I love reading scifi books, specifically, ''Star Trek'', ''Star Wars'', ''Honor Harrington'' series (by David Weber), and Anne McCaffrey's ''Dragonriders of Pern'' series.
# I'm a bit of a bookworm. Well, maybe a '''lot''' of a bookworm ;)

==A bit of background==
My name is Cailin. I am 34 years old. In May of 2012, I completed a Bachelor of Science degree at Tarleton State University in Horticulture and Landscape Management with a Business Administration minor. I also hold an Associate of Science in Graphic Design. Some may ask... "Why change fields?" Well, the answer for that is a tad bit complex. At the time I was working on my AS, Graphic Design was a highly sought-after skill, and I found myself to be reasonably skilled with it. It is difficult, however, to find a job when people are starting to be able to do this kind of work for themselves. I spent over a year looking without much success. I then moved around a bit, finally ending up in Texas during the late summer of 2006. I did find some work, but it wasn't what I was really wanting, or what made good use of my skills. After that, I spent 6 months in AmeriCorps and then 8 months working for the IRS, then I decided to go back to school. My stint in AmeriCorps had rekindled my love for the outdoors that I'd had growing up.

==Pathfinders==
I was in Pathfinders from 1998 to about 2005. In that time, I was active in two clubs - Merrimack Valley (Manchester) and then Portsmouth Living Waters. I started Pathfinders in Merrimack Valley when Pathfinders still had the green pants and skirts. It was a BIG change uniform wise to go from green and khaki to black and khaki, but I have to admit, it looks a lot sharper, and we look less like Boy Scouts. That is not to say, however, that I dislike Boy Scouts as an organization. I think they are a wonderful group of people, and when I was younger, I had the opportunity to interact with quite a few. The summer camp I went to for physically challenged kids was on a Boy Scout reservation.

During my time in Pathfinders, I completed many honors, and 3 classes (now called Investiture Achievements) and began work on my Master Guide requirements as well as completing the full four years of the TLT (Teen Leadership Training) program. I thought I would have to start my Master Guide over again when I returned to Pathfindering after a 6-year absence, but I worked closely with others in my local club to complete the remaining requirements. In 2004, I had the opportunity to travel to the 2004 "Faith on Fire" International Pathfinder Camporee in Oskkosh, WI. with the Portsmouth Living Waters. '''That''' was something I will never forget.

I completed my Master Guide in May of 2013 and was invested on June 1st, 2013. I'm so glad to have it finally finished. It was a long time coming. But, with the encouragement and help of many people, I have finally completed it. Master Guide is roughly equivalent to Eagle Scout in Boy Scouts.

More recently, I've been an active member of the staff for the Central NH Flames Pathfinders, which is part of the Northern New England Conference. I've taught Explorer and Guide, as well as Pioneer and Navigator - the two classes developed by the Florida Conference. These two classes are not officially recognized by the NAD, but I find that they provide engagement for older Pathfinders.

In the last couple of years, I have served as the Secretary for the Central NH Flames. I developed an attendance tracking system using Google Docs and Forms, and I also developed a series of binders for the instructors for each of the classes. These binders contain not only the books for each class but also honors and other reference materials - which provide the instructor with many of the resources they need all in one place. All of these resources are available online - I merely compiled them.

==Then, and Now==
I won't bore you with all the details, but I think this degree will be of much more use to me. I've recently returned to the East Coast, and gotten involved in Pathfinders again... and it feels almost like I never left. That to me is one of the most wonderful feelings in the world... to be welcomed back by friends you haven't seen in well over half a decade, and it's like you never left.

One of the things that I'm really looking forward to is sharing my knowledge here on the wiki for other Pathfinders, staff, and Master Guides. I feel that is how I can minister in my own right.

==Messages==

==Important Notes==
Basic Rescue[http://www.investitureachievement.org/wiki/index.php/Adventist_Youth_Honors_Answer_Book/Health_and_Science/Basic_Rescue] , CPR[http://www.investitureachievement.org/wiki/index.php/Adventist_Youth_Honors_Answer_Book/Health_and_Science/CPR], and Red Alert [http://www.investitureachievement.org/wiki/index.php/Adventist_Youth_Honors_Answer_Book/Health_and_Science/Red_Alert] were moved from '''Outreach''' [now '''Spiritual Growth and Ministries, and Outreach'''] to the '''Health and Science''' category. They now have a purple background instead of dark blue, though many Pathfinders (including me!) have the older patches from before the change went into effect. The '''Spiritual Growth and Ministries Master Award'''[http://wiki.pathfindersonline.org/w/Category:Adventist_Youth_Honors_Answer_Book/Spiritual_Growth_and_Ministries_Master_Award] has replaced the '''Witnessing Master Award'''.

Bluescifiworm: /* Pathfinders */

[[File:PF profile.jpg|200px|right]]
[[File:2018 cg.png|200px|right]]
[[File:Cailin-grad2012.png|200px|right]]

==Why Bluescifiworm?==
The tag bluescifiworm has a bit of a history behind it. Originally, I picked it because it was unique (You know how hard it is to come up with something no one else has used as a online tag?). I chose it because of the following reasons.

# I like the color blue.
# I love reading scifi books, specifically, ''Star Trek'', ''Star Wars'', ''Honor Harrington'' series (by David Weber), and Anne McCaffrey's ''Dragonriders of Pern'' series.
# I'm a bit of a bookworm. Well, maybe a '''lot''' of a bookworm ;)

==A bit of background==
My name is Cailin. I am 34 years old. In May of 2012, I completed a Bachelor of Science degree at Tarleton State University in Horticulture and Landscape Management with a Business Administration minor. I also hold an Associate of Science in Graphic Design. Some may ask... "Why change fields?" Well, the answer for that is a tad bit complex. At the time I was working on my AS, Graphic Design was a highly sought-after skill, and I found myself to be reasonably skilled with it. It is difficult, however, to find a job when people are starting to be able to do this kind of work for themselves. I spent over a year looking without much success. I then moved around a bit, finally ending up in Texas during the late summer of 2006. I did find some work, but it wasn't what I was really wanting, or what made good use of my skills. After that, I spent 6 months in AmeriCorps and then 8 months working for the IRS, then I decided to go back to school. My stint in AmeriCorps had rekindled my love for the outdoors that I'd had growing up.

==Pathfinders==
I was in Pathfinders from 1998ish to about 2005. In that time, I was active in two clubs - Merrimack Valley (Manchester) and then Portsmouth Living Waters. I started Pathfinders in Merrimack Valley when Pathfinders still had the green pants and skirts. It was a BIG change uniform wise to go from green and khaki to black and khaki, but I have to admit, it looks a lot sharper, and we look less like Boy Scouts. That is not to say, however, that I dislike Boy Scouts as an organization. I think they are a wonderful group of people, and when I was younger, I had the opportunity to interact with quite a few. The summer camp I went to for physically challenged kids was on a Boy Scout reservation.

During my time in Pathfinders, I completed many honors, and 3 classes (now called Investiture Achievements) and began work on my Master Guide requirements as well as completing the full four years of the TLT (Teen Leadership Training) program. I thought I would have to start my Master Guide over again when I returned to Pathfindering after a 6-year absence, but I worked closely with others in my local club to complete the remaining requirements. In 2004, I had the opportunity to travel to the 2004 "Faith on Fire" International Pathfinder Camporee in Oskkosh, WI. with the Portsmouth Living Waters. '''That''' was something I will never forget.

I completed my Master Guide in May of 2013 and was invested on June 1st, 2013. I'm so glad to have it finally finished. It was a long time coming. But, with the encouragement and help of many people, I have finally completed it. Master Guide is roughly equivalent to Eagle Scout in Boy Scouts.

Most recently, I've been an active member of the staff for the Central NH Flames Pathfinders, which is part of the Northern New England Conference. I've taught Explorer and Guide, as well as Pioneer and Navigator - the two classes developed by the Florida Conference. These two classes are not officially recognized by the NAD, but I find that they provide engagement for older Pathfinders.

In the last couple of years, I have served as the Secretary for the Central NH Flames. I developed an attendance tracking system using Google Docs and Forms, and I also developed a series of binders for the instructors for each of the classes. These binders contain not only the books for each class but also honors and other reference materials - which provide the instructor with many of the resources they need all in one place. All of these resources are available online - I merely compiled them.

Bluescifiworm: /* Spiritual Growth, Outreach & Heritage [Spiritual Growth and Ministries Master] */

==Why Bluescifiworm?==
The tag bluescifiworm has a bit of a history behind it. Originally, I picked it because it was unique (You know how hard it is to come up with something no one else has used as a online tag?). I chose it because of the following reasons.

# I like the color blue.
# I love reading scifi books, specifically, ''Star Trek'', ''Star Wars'', ''Honor Harrington'' series (by David Weber), and Anne McCaffrey's ''Dragonriders of Pern'' series.
# I'm a bit of a bookworm. Well, maybe a '''lot''' of a bookworm ;)

==A bit of background==
My name is Cailin. I am 34 years old. In May of 2012, I completed a Bachelor of Science degree at Tarleton State University in Horticulture and Landscape Management with a Business Administration minor. I also hold an Associate of Science in Graphic Design. Some may ask... "Why change fields?" Well, the answer for that is a tad bit complex. At the time I was working on my AS, Graphic Design was a highly sought-after skill, and I found myself to be reasonably skilled with it. It is difficult, however, to find a job when people are starting to be able to do this kind of work for themselves. I spent over a year looking without much success. I then moved around a bit, finally ending up in Texas during the late summer of 2006. I did find some work, but it wasn't what I was really wanting, or what made good use of my skills. After that, I spent 6 months in AmeriCorps and then 8 months working for the IRS, then I decided to go back to school. My stint in AmeriCorps had rekindled my love for the outdoors that I'd had growing up.

==Pathfinders==
I was in Pathfinders from 1998ish to about 2005. In that time, I was active in two clubs - Merrimack Valley (Manchester) and then Portsmouth Living Waters. I started Pathfinders in Merrimack Valley when Pathfinders still had the green pants and skirts. It was a BIG change uniform wise to go from green and khaki to black and khaki, but I have to admit, it looks a lot sharper, and we look less like Boy Scouts. That is not to say however, that I dislike Boy Scouts as an organization. I think they are a wonderful group of people, and when I was younger, I had opportunity to interact with quite a few. The summer camp I went to for physically challenged kids was on a Boy Scout reservation.

During my time in Pathfinders, I completed many honors, and 3 classes (now called Investiture Achievements) and began work on my Master Guide requirements as well as completing the full four years of the TLT (Teen Leadership Training) program. I thought I would have to start my Master Guide over again when I returned to Pathfindering after a 6 year absence, but I worked closely with others in my local club to complete the remaining requirements. In 2004, I had the opportunity to travel to the 2004 "Faith on Fire" International Pathfinder Camporee in Oskkosh, WI. with the Portsmouth Living Waters. '''That''' was something I will never forget.

I completed my Master Guide in May of 2013 and was invested on June 1st, 2013. I'm so glad to have it finally finished. It was a long time coming. But, with the encouragement and help of many people, I have finally completed it. Master Guide is roughly equivalent to Eagle Scout in Boy Scouts.

==Then, and Now==
I won't bore you with all the details, but I think this degree will be of much more use to me. I've recently returned to the East Coast, and gotten involved in Pathfinders again... and it feels almost like I never left. That to me is one of the most wonderful feelings in the world... to be welcomed back by friends you haven't seen in well over half a decade, and it's like you never left.

One of the things that I'm really looking forward to is sharing my knowledge here on the wiki for other Pathfinders, staff, and Master Guides. I feel that is how I can minister in my own right.

==Messages==
If you need to contact me with a question or comment, please do so here on the Discussion Section of my User Page, or leave a comment on the Talk page of the Honor or IA class I've been working on. You can check this by looking at my current list of projects here on this page, or checking the edit history of any Honor page. I do try to watch pages I work on frequently.

==Why Bluescifiworm?==
The tag bluescifiworm has a bit of a history behind it. Originally, I picked it because it was unique (You know how hard it is to come up with something no one else has used as a online tag?). I chose it because of the following reasons.

# I like the color blue.
# I love reading scifi books, specifically, ''Star Trek'', ''Star Wars'', ''Honor Harrington'' series (by David Weber), and Anne McCaffrey's ''Dragonriders of Pern'' series.
# I'm a bit of a bookworm. Well, maybe a '''lot''' of a bookworm ;)

==A bit of background==
My name is Cailin. I am 34 years old. In May of 2012, I completed a Bachelor of Science degree at Tarleton State University in Horticulture and Landscape Management with a Business Administration minor. I also hold an Associate of Science in Graphic Design. Some may ask... "Why change fields?" Well, the answer for that is a tad bit complex. At the time I was working on my AS, Graphic Design was a highly sought-after skill, and I found myself to be reasonably skilled with it. It is difficult, however, to find a job when people are starting to be able to do this kind of work for themselves. I spent over a year looking without much success. I then moved around a bit, finally ending up in Texas during the late summer of 2006. I did find some work, but it wasn't what I was really wanting, or what made good use of my skills. After that, I spent 6 months in AmeriCorps and then 8 months working for the IRS, then I decided to go back to school. My stint in AmeriCorps had rekindled my love for the outdoors that I'd had growing up.

==Pathfinders==
I was in Pathfinders from 1998ish to about 2005. In that time, I was active in two clubs - Merrimack Valley (Manchester) and then Portsmouth Living Waters. I started Pathfinders in Merrimack Valley when Pathfinders still had the green pants and skirts. It was a BIG change uniform wise to go from green and khaki to black and khaki, but I have to admit, it looks a lot sharper, and we look less like Boy Scouts. That is not to say however, that I dislike Boy Scouts as an organization. I think they are a wonderful group of people, and when I was younger, I had opportunity to interact with quite a few. The summer camp I went to for physically challenged kids was on a Boy Scout reservation.

During my time in Pathfinders, I completed many honors, and 3 classes (now called Investiture Achievements) and began work on my Master Guide requirements as well as completing the full four years of the TLT (Teen Leadership Training) program. I thought I would have to start my Master Guide over again when I returned to Pathfindering after a 6 year absence, but I worked closely with others in my local club to complete the remaining requirements. In 2004, I had the opportunity to travel to the 2004 "Faith on Fire" International Pathfinder Camporee in Oskkosh, WI. with the Portsmouth Living Waters. '''That''' was something I will never forget.

I completed my Master Guide in May of 2013 and was invested on June 1st, 2013. I'm so glad to have it finally finished. It was a long time coming. But, with the encouragement and help of many people, I have finally completed it. Master Guide is roughly equivalent to Eagle Scout in Boy Scouts.

==Why Bluescifiworm?==
The tag bluescifiworm has a bit of a history behind it. Originally, I picked it because it was unique (You know how hard it is to come up with something no one else has used as a online tag?). I chose it because of the following reasons.

# I like the color blue.
# I love reading scifi books, specifically, ''Star Trek'', ''Star Wars'', ''Honor Harrington'' series (by David Weber), and Anne McCaffrey's ''Dragonriders of Pern'' series.
# I'm a bit of a bookworm. Well, maybe a '''lot''' of a bookworm ;)

==A bit of background==
My name is Cailin. I am 34 years old. In May of 2012, I completed a Bachelor of Science degree at Tarleton State University in Horticulture and Landscape Management with a Business Administration minor. I also hold an Associate of Science in Graphic Design. Some may ask... "Why change fields?" Well, the answer for that is a tad bit complex. At the time I was working on my AS, Graphic Design was a highly sought-after skill, and I found myself to be reasonably skilled with it. It is difficult, however, to find a job when people are starting to be able to do this kind of work for themselves. I spent over a year looking without much success. I then moved around a bit, finally ending up in Texas during the late summer of 2006. I did find some work, but it wasn't what I was really wanting, or what made good use of my skills. After that, I spent 6 months in AmeriCorps and then 8 months working for the IRS, then I decided to go back to school. My stint in AmeriCorps had rekindled my love for the outdoors that I'd had growing up.

==Pathfinders==
I was in Pathfinders from 1998ish to about 2005. In that time, I was active in two clubs - Merrimack Valley (Manchester) and then Portsmouth Living Waters. I started Pathfinders in Merrimack Valley when Pathfinders still had the green pants and skirts. It was a BIG change uniform wise to go from green and khaki to black and khaki, but I have to admit, it looks a lot sharper, and we look less like Boy Scouts. That is not to say however, that I dislike Boy Scouts as an organization. I think they are a wonderful group of people, and when I was younger, I had opportunity to interact with quite a few. The summer camp I went to for physically challenged kids was on a Boy Scout reservation.

During my time in Pathfinders, I completed many honors, and 3 classes (now called Investiture Achievements) and began work on my Master Guide requirements as well as completing the full four years of the TLT (Teen Leadership Training) program. I thought I would have to start my Master Guide over again when I returned to Pathfindering after a 6 year absence, but I worked closely with others in my local club to complete the remaining requirements. In 2004, I had the opportunity to travel to the 2004 "Faith on Fire" International Pathfinder Camporee in Oskkosh, WI. with the Portsmouth Living Waters. '''That''' was something I will never forget.

I completed my Master Guide in May of 2013 and was invested on June 1st, 2013. I'm so glad to have it finally finished. It was a long time coming. But, with the encouragement and help of many people, I have finally completed it. Master Guide is roughly equivalent to Eagle Scout in Boy Scouts.

==Then, and Now==
I won't bore you with all the details, but I think this degree will be of much more use to me. I've recently returned to the East Coast, and gotten involved in Pathfinders again... and it feels almost like I never left. That to me is one of the most wonderful feelings in the world... to be welcomed back by friends you haven't seen in well over half a decade, and it's like you never left.

One of the things that I'm really looking forward to is sharing my knowledge here on the wiki for other Pathfinders, staff, and Master Guides. I feel that is how I can minister in my own right.

==A bit of background==
My name is Cailin. I am 34 years old. In May of 2012, I completed a Bachelor of Science degree at Tarleton State University in Horticulture and Landscape Management with a Business Administration minor. I also hold an Associate of Science in Graphic Design. Some may ask... "Why change fields?" Well, the answer for that is a tad bit complex. At the time I was working on my AS, Graphic Design was a highly sought-after skill, and I found myself to be reasonably skilled with it. It is difficult, however, to find a job when people are starting to be able to do this kind of work for themselves. I spent over a year looking without much success. I then moved around a bit, finally ending up in Texas during the late summer of 2006. I did find some work, but it wasn't what I was really wanting, or what made good use of my skills.

My stint in AmeriCorps had rekindled my love for the outdoors that I'd had growing up.

==Pathfinders==
I was in Pathfinders from 1998ish to about 2005. In that time, I was active in two clubs - Merrimack Valley (Manchester) and then Portsmouth Living Waters. I started Pathfinders in Merrimack Valley when Pathfinders still had the green pants and skirts. It was a BIG change uniform wise to go from green and khaki to black and khaki, but I have to admit, it looks a lot sharper, and we look less like Boy Scouts. That is not to say however, that I dislike Boy Scouts as an organization. I think they are a wonderful group of people, and when I was younger, I had opportunity to interact with quite a few. The summer camp I went to for physically challenged kids was on a Boy Scout reservation.

During my time in Pathfinders, I completed many honors, and 3 classes (now called Investiture Achievements) and began work on my Master Guide requirements as well as completing the full four years of the TLT (Teen Leadership Training) program. I thought I would have to start my Master Guide over again when I returned to Pathfindering after a 6 year absence, but I worked closely with others in my local club to complete the remaining requirements. In 2004, I had the opportunity to travel to the 2004 "Faith on Fire" International Pathfinder Camporee in Oskkosh, WI. with the Portsmouth Living Waters. '''That''' was something I will never forget.

I completed my Master Guide in May of 2013 and was invested on June 1st, 2013. I'm so glad to have it finally finished. It was a long time coming. But, with the encouragement and help of many people, I have finally completed it. Master Guide is roughly equivalent to Eagle Scout in Boy Scouts.

I won't bore you with all the details, but I think this degree will be of much more use to me. I've recently returned to the East Coast, and gotten involved in Pathfinders again... and it feels almost like I never left. That to me is one of the most wonderful feelings in the world... to be welcomed back by friends you haven't seen in well over half a decade, and it's like you never left.

One of the things that I'm really looking forward to is sharing my knowledge here on the wiki for other Pathfinders, staff, and Master Guides. I feel that is how I can minister in my own right.

==Why Bluescifiworm?==
The tag bluescifiworm has a bit of a history behind it. Originally, I picked it because it was unique (You know how hard it is to come up with something no one else has used as a online tag?). I chose it because of the following reasons.

# I like the color blue.
# I love reading scifi books, specifically, ''Star Trek'', ''Star Wars'', ''Honor Harrington'' series (by David Weber), and Anne McCaffrey's ''Dragonriders of Pern'' series.
# I'm a bit of a bookworm. Well, maybe a '''lot''' of a bookworm ;)

==A bit of background==
My name is Cailin. I am 34 years old. In May of 2012, I completed a Bachelor of Science degree at Tarleton State University in Horticulture and Landscape Management with a Business Administration minor. I also hold an Associate of Science in Graphic Design. Some may ask... "Why change fields?" Well, the answer for that is a tad bit complex. At the time I was working on my AS, Graphic Design was a highly sought-after skill, and I found myself to be reasonably skilled with it. It is difficult, however, to find a job when people are starting to be able to do this kind of work for themselves. I spent over a year looking without much success. I then moved around a bit, finally ending up in Texas during the late summer of 2006. I did find some work, but it wasn't what I was really wanting, or what made good use of my skills. After that, I spent 6 months in AmeriCorps and then 8 months working for the IRS, then I decided to go back to school. My stint in AmeriCorps had rekindled my love for the outdoors that I'd had growing up.

==Pathfinders==
I was in Pathfinders from 1998ish to about 2005. In that time, I was active in two clubs - Merrimack Valley (Manchester) and then Portsmouth Living Waters. I started Pathfinders in Merrimack Valley when Pathfinders still had the green pants and skirts. It was a BIG change uniform wise to go from green and khaki to black and khaki, but I have to admit, it looks a lot sharper, and we look less like Boy Scouts. That is not to say however, that I dislike Boy Scouts as an organization. I think they are a wonderful group of people, and when I was younger, I had opportunity to interact with quite a few. The summer camp I went to for physically challenged kids was on a Boy Scout reservation.

During my time in Pathfinders, I completed many honors, and 3 classes (now called Investiture Achievements) and began work on my Master Guide requirements as well as completing the full four years of the TLT (Teen Leadership Training) program. I thought I would have to start my Master Guide over again when I returned to Pathfindering after a 6 year absence, but I worked closely with others in my local club to complete the remaining requirements. In 2004, I had the opportunity to travel to the 2004 "Faith on Fire" International Pathfinder Camporee in Oskkosh, WI. with the Portsmouth Living Waters. '''That''' was something I will never forget.

I completed my Master Guide in May of 2013 and was invested on June 1st, 2013. I'm so glad to have it finally finished. It was a long time coming. But, with the encouragement and help of many people, I have finally completed it. Master Guide is roughly equivalent to Eagle Scout in Boy Scouts.

==Then, and Now==
I won't bore you with all the details, but I think this degree will be of much more use to me. I've recently returned to the East Coast, and gotten involved in Pathfinders again... and it feels almost like I never left. That to me is one of the most wonderful feelings in the world... to be welcomed back by friends you haven't seen in well over half a decade, and it's like you never left.

One of the things that I'm really looking forward to is sharing my knowledge here on the wiki for other Pathfinders, staff, and Master Guides. I feel that is how I can minister in my own right.

==Why Bluescifiworm?==
The tag bluescifiworm has a bit of a history behind it. Originally, I picked it because it was unique (You know how hard it is to come up with something no one else has used as a online tag?). I chose it because of the following reasons.

# I like the color blue.
# I love reading scifi books, specifically, ''Star Trek'', ''Star Wars'', ''Honor Harrington'' series (by David Weber), and Anne McCaffrey's ''Dragonriders of Pern'' series.
# I'm a bit of a bookworm. Well, maybe a '''lot''' of a bookworm ;)

==A bit of background==
My name is Cailin. I am 34 years old. In May of 2012, I completed a Bachelor of Science degree at Tarleton State University in Horticulture and Landscape Management with a Business Administration minor. I also hold an Associate of Science in Graphic Design. Some may ask... "Why change fields?" Well, the answer for that is a tad bit complex. At the time I was working on my AS, Graphic Design was a highly sought-after skill, and I found myself to be reasonably skilled with it. It is difficult, however, to find a job when people are starting to be able to do this kind of work for themselves. I spent over a year looking without much success. I then moved around a bit, finally ending up in Texas during the late summer of 2006. I did find some work, but it wasn't what I was really wanting, or what made good use of my skills. After that, I spent 6 months in AmeriCorps and then 8 months working for the IRS, then I decided to go back to school. My stint in AmeriCorps had rekindled my love for the outdoors that I'd had growing up.

==Pathfinders==
I was in Pathfinders from 1998ish to about 2005. In that time, I was active in two clubs - Merrimack Valley (Manchester) and then Portsmouth Living Waters. I started Pathfinders in Merrimack Valley when Pathfinders still had the green pants and skirts. It was a BIG change uniform wise to go from green and khaki to black and khaki, but I have to admit, it looks a lot sharper, and we look less like Boy Scouts. That is not to say however, that I dislike Boy Scouts as an organization. I think they are a wonderful group of people, and when I was younger, I had opportunity to interact with quite a few. The summer camp I went to for physically challenged kids was on a Boy Scout reservation.

During my time in Pathfinders, I completed many honors, and 3 classes (now called Investiture Achievements) and began work on my Master Guide requirements as well as completing the full four years of the TLT (Teen Leadership Training) program. I thought I would have to start my Master Guide over again when I returned to Pathfindering after a 6 year absence, but I worked closely with others in my local club to complete the remaining requirements. In 2004, I had the opportunity to travel to the 2004 "Faith on Fire" International Pathfinder Camporee in Oskkosh, WI. with the Portsmouth Living Waters. '''That''' was something I will never forget.

I completed my Master Guide in May of 2013 and was invested on June 1st, 2013. I'm so glad to have it finally finished. It was a long time coming. But, with the encouragement and help of many people, I have finally completed it. Master Guide is roughly equivalent to Eagle Scout in Boy Scouts.

==Then, and Now==
I won't bore you with all the details, but I think this degree will be of much more use to me. I've recently returned to the East Coast, and gotten involved in Pathfinders again... and it feels almost like I never left. That to me is one of the most wonderful feelings in the world... to be welcomed back by friends you haven't seen in well over half a decade, and it's like you never left.

One of the things that I'm really looking forward to is sharing my knowledge here on the wiki for other Pathfinders, staff, and Master Guides. I feel that is how I can minister in my own right.

Bluescifiworm: /* Vocational [Technichian Master] */

[[File:PF profile.jpg|200px|right]]
[[File:2018 cg.png|200px|right]]
[[File:Cailin-grad2012.png|200px|right]]

==Why Bluescifiworm?==
The tag bluescifiworm has a bit of a history behind it. Originally, I picked it because it was unique (You know how hard it is to come up with something no one else has used as a online tag?). I chose it because of the following reasons.

# I like the color blue.
# I love reading scifi books, specifically, ''Star Trek'', ''Star Wars'', ''Honor Harrington'' series (by David Weber), and Anne McCaffrey's ''Dragonriders of Pern'' series.
# I'm a bit of a bookworm. Well, maybe a '''lot''' of a bookworm ;)

==A bit of background==
My name is Cailin. I am 34 years old. In May of 2012, I completed a Bachelor of Science degree at Tarleton State University in Horticulture and Landscape Management with a Business Administration minor. I also hold an Associate of Science in Graphic Design. Some may ask... "Why change fields?" Well, the answer for that is a tad bit complex. At the time I was working on my AS, Graphic Design was a highly sought-after skill, and I found myself to be reasonably skilled with it. It is difficult, however, to find a job when people are starting to be able to do this kind of work for themselves. I spent over a year looking without much success. I then moved around a bit, finally ending up in Texas during the late summer of 2006. I did find some work, but it wasn't what I was really wanting, or what made good use of my skills. After that, I spent 6 months in AmeriCorps and then 8 months working for the IRS, then I decided to go back to school. My stint in AmeriCorps had rekindled my love for the outdoors that I'd had growing up.

==Pathfinders==
I was in Pathfinders from 1998ish to about 2005. In that time, I was active in two clubs - Merrimack Valley (Manchester) and then Portsmouth Living Waters. I started Pathfinders in Merrimack Valley when Pathfinders still had the green pants and skirts. It was a BIG change uniform wise to go from green and khaki to black and khaki, but I have to admit, it looks a lot sharper, and we look less like Boy Scouts. That is not to say however, that I dislike Boy Scouts as an organization. I think they are a wonderful group of people, and when I was younger, I had opportunity to interact with quite a few. The summer camp I went to for physically challenged kids was on a Boy Scout reservation.

During my time in Pathfinders, I completed many honors, and 3 classes (now called Investiture Achievements) and began work on my Master Guide requirements as well as completing the full four years of the TLT (Teen Leadership Training) program. I thought I would have to start my Master Guide over again when I returned to Pathfindering after a 6 year absence, but I worked closely with others in my local club to complete the remaining requirements. In 2004, I had the opportunity to travel to the 2004 "Faith on Fire" International Pathfinder Camporee in Oskkosh, WI. with the Portsmouth Living Waters. '''That''' was something I will never forget.

I completed my Master Guide in May of 2013 and was invested on June 1st, 2013. I'm so glad to have it finally finished. It was a long time coming. But, with the encouragement and help of many people, I have finally completed it. Master Guide is roughly equivalent to Eagle Scout in Boy Scouts.

==1. a. Name five different methods of Bible Marking.<br>b. Explain how each method would be used.<br>c. List advantages and disadvantages of each.== 
Questions a, b and c are answered together below.


{{Adventist Youth Honors Answer Book/Bible Marking Method
|method = Chain Reference
|description=<br>
In this method, you first choose a topic and come up with a very short ''key'' for it. For instance, "Salvation by Grace" might become "SbG" or even "SG". Then you find a blank page either near the front or near the back of your Bible and write the title, the key, and the first reference, such as ''Col 2:14''. You then turn to that reference in the Bible, and in the margin near the first reference, you write the key plus the reference to the next verse. Continue doing this until you annotate the final verse with the key and the letter "F" (for "final").
|advantages=<br>
# You can give a quick Bible study "on the spot."
# It's a good way to become familiar with the Bible.
# It's an effective way to become familiar with a topic.
# You can buy preprinted sheets of stickers for the references on certain topics.
|disadvantages=<br>
# You cannot change the order of study.
# If you lose your place, you have to start over from the beginning.
# Sometimes the pre-printed stickers can fall out.
}}


{{Adventist Youth Honors Answer Book/Bible Marking Method
|method =Color Code
|description=<br>
Choose a color for the topic. As you read your Bible, when you come across a passage having to do with that topic, you mark a line down the margin starting where that topic begins, and ending where the topic ends. If the passage has a subheading and the entire passage has to do with the topic, underline the subheading with that color.
|advantages=<br>
#Good for ongoing study of the Bible.
#Colors stand out.
#Gives a good overview of a topic.
|disadvantages=<br>
#The number of distinct colors will limit the number of topics you can mark.
#You have to have the right color marker with you when you come across a reference.
#Too many colors or an overmarked Bible will render the annotations useless.
#Not good for a sequential study - such as where a prophecy is made and where its fulfillment is recorded.
}}
{{Adventist Youth Honors Answer Book/Bible Marking Method
|method =Cross Reference
|description =<br>
1. Where you have found two or more texts speaking about the same subject you can, alongside one of these texts, in the margin, write the reference to those other texts. Then go to those other texts and write the reference of the first text.
2. If it is to do with only a word or a phrase from the text that you wish to support from other texts, then place an "R" alongside that word or phrase.
|advantages=<br>
# Can be added to.
# Not limited by subjects.
# Quick support for a difficult text.
|disadvantages=<br>
# Limited by space in the margin for reference.
# You need to know where to start.
# Hard to follow through a complete study.
|comments=<br>
Many Bibles have this type of reference in them when printed.
}}


{{Adventist Youth Honors Answer Book/Bible Marking Method
|method =Highlighting or Underlining
|description=<br>
# Emphasize just one word or phrase in the section. Just enough to make the thought that you want to stand out.
# This can be done in a number of ways:
## A neat line under the word - preferably in a color to suit your total marking system.
## Keep a pencil or fine biro[https://www.collinsdictionary.com/us/dictionary/english/biro] - only one color just for underlining.
## If you are very neat and careful, a very effective way is to just write over the letters to thicken them a little BUT test the steadiness of your hand and the suitability of the pen on something first.
|advantages=<br>
# Reminds you of an important part of the text.
# It makes that part stand out.
|disadvantages=<br>
# Too much lessens the clarity of the text.
}}


{{Adventist Youth Honors Answer Book/Bible Marking Method
|method =Number Reference
|description =<br>
# When you have information about a word or passage that you cannot fit in the margin, highlight - underline or mark in an appropriate way to suit your system of marking.
# Then in the margin, place a number - that number will be the same as a number on a page in the back of your Bible.
# To know what that number should be, look at the last lot of information you put on that page and the number you put with it, the number is the next number. So if your last entry was 5, then this one would be 6.
# Put the reference for your text at the end of your information entry for cross-reference.
|advantages=<br>
# Allows comment or explanation on a thought in greater detail.
# Helps to keep information about a word or passage from being forgotten.
|disadvantages=<br>
# Has a limited use.
}}


{{Adventist Youth Honors Answer Book/Bible Marking Method
|method =Subject Lists
|description =<br>
# On a page at the back of your Bible, make lists of texts under a subject heading.
# Leave plenty of room so you can keep adding extra texts you find as you read the Bible or listen to sermons.
# Add an extra page if you need to.
# A mark can be placed alongside the more suitable texts for the topic.
|advantages=<br>
# Good personal study.
# A quick source of references from which to pick for a study.
# Does not clutter the margin of your Bible.
|disadvantages=<br>
# It needs a reasonable amount of space in the back of your Bible.
}}

==2. List five guidelines you would consider before starting to mark your Bible.== 
#Choose a Bible that suits your needs. If you will need wide margins to write in the cross reference system OR if you need space to write notes for the number system, choose a Bible with wide margins.
#Choose a method that suits your needs.It generally better to use only one method of marking in a Bible. If you wish to try another method, use a different Bible.
#Choose a marker that will not bleed through the page. If in doubt, make a small test mark before you begin, and make sure it does not show through on the other side of the page.
#Do not overmark your Bible. Too many marks make it almost unreadable, so keep it simple.
#Do not use too many colors, but when using multiple colors, make sure they are distinct.
#Plan before you start, and have a definite aim in marking the Bible.
#Don't mark an heirloom Bible. For instance, Gramma Tillie's Bible with her ancestry recorded within is not an appropriate choice for marking. Get a new Bible if you need to. Thrift stores that accept books often have many (sadly) barely used Bibles for sale, and many churches buy Bibles in bulk for evangelism series, or have a collection of Bibles to give away. Do not let cost prevent you from completing this honor.
#If there are not enough blank sheets at the end of your Bible, you can carefully add more by gluing them in. Cut the paper to size, and use a ''little'' glue along its edge. Then slide the glued edge as far back into the spine as you can.
#Choose a translation you will enjoy reading and find easy to understand. This will make the process much more enjoyable.

==Why Bluescifiworm?==
The tag bluescifiworm has a bit of a history behind it. Originally, I picked it because it was unique (You know how hard it is to come up with something no one else has used as a online tag?). I chose it because of the following reasons.

# I like the color blue.
# I love reading scifi books, specifically, ''Star Trek'', ''Star Wars'', ''Honor Harrington'' series (by David Weber), and Anne McCaffrey's ''Dragonriders of Pern'' series.
# I'm a bit of a bookworm. Well, maybe a '''lot''' of a bookworm ;)

==A bit of background==
My name is Cailin. I am 34 years old. In May of 2012, I completed a Bachelor of Science degree at Tarleton State University in Horticulture and Landscape Management with a Business Administration minor. I also hold an Associate of Science in Graphic Design. Some may ask... "Why change fields?" Well, the answer for that is a tad bit complex. At the time I was working on my AS, Graphic Design was a highly sought-after skill, and I found myself to be reasonably skilled with it. It is difficult, however, to find a job when people are starting to be able to do this kind of work for themselves. I spent over a year looking without much success. I then moved around a bit, finally ending up in Texas during the late summer of 2006. I did find some work, but it wasn't what I was really wanting, or what made good use of my skills. After that, I spent 6 months in AmeriCorps and then 8 months working for the IRS, then I decided to go back to school. My stint in AmeriCorps had rekindled my love for the outdoors that I'd had growing up.

==Pathfinders==
I was in Pathfinders from 1998ish to about 2005. In that time, I was active in two clubs - Merrimack Valley (Manchester) and then Portsmouth Living Waters. I started Pathfinders in Merrimack Valley when Pathfinders still had the green pants and skirts. It was a BIG change uniform wise to go from green and khaki to black and khaki, but I have to admit, it looks a lot sharper, and we look less like Boy Scouts. That is not to say however, that I dislike Boy Scouts as an organization. I think they are a wonderful group of people, and when I was younger, I had opportunity to interact with quite a few. The summer camp I went to for physically challenged kids was on a Boy Scout reservation.

During my time in Pathfinders, I completed many honors, and 3 classes (now called Investiture Achievements) and began work on my Master Guide requirements as well as completing the full four years of the TLT (Teen Leadership Training) program. I thought I would have to start my Master Guide over again when I returned to Pathfindering after a 6 year absence, but I worked closely with others in my local club to complete the remaining requirements. In 2004, I had the opportunity to travel to the 2004 "Faith on Fire" International Pathfinder Camporee in Oskkosh, WI. with the Portsmouth Living Waters. '''That''' was something I will never forget.

I completed my Master Guide in May of 2013 and was invested on June 1st, 2013. I'm so glad to have it finally finished. It was a long time coming. But, with the encouragement and help of many people, I have finally completed it. Master Guide is roughly equivalent to Eagle Scout in Boy Scouts.

==Then, and Now==
I won't bore you with all the details, but I think this degree will be of much more use to me. I've recently returned to the East Coast, and gotten involved in Pathfinders again... and it feels almost like I never left. That to me is one of the most wonderful feelings in the world... to be welcomed back by friends you haven't seen in well over half a decade, and it's like you never left.

One of the things that I'm really looking forward to is sharing my knowledge here on the wiki for other Pathfinders, staff, and Master Guides. I feel that is how I can minister in my own right.

==Messages==
If you need to contact me with a question or comment, please do so here on the Discussion Section of my User Page, or leave a comment on the Talk page of the Honor or IA class I've been working on. You can check this by looking at my current list of projects here on this page, or checking the edit history of any Honor page. I do try to watch pages I work on frequently.

==Important Notes==
Basic Rescue[http://www.investitureachievement.org/wiki/index.php/Adventist_Youth_Honors_Answer_Book/Health_and_Science/Basic_Rescue] , CPR[http://www.investitureachievement.org/wiki/index.php/Adventist_Youth_Honors_Answer_Book/Health_and_Science/CPR], and Red Alert [http://www.investitureachievement.org/wiki/index.php/Adventist_Youth_Honors_Answer_Book/Health_and_Science/Red_Alert] were moved from '''Outreach''' [now '''Spiritual Growth and Ministries, and Outreach'''] to the '''Health and Science''' category. They now have a purple background instead of dark blue, though many Pathfinders (including me!) have the older patches from before the change went into effect. The '''Spiritual Growth and Ministries Master Award'''[http://wiki.pathfindersonline.org/w/Category:Adventist_Youth_Honors_Answer_Book/Spiritual_Growth_and_Ministries_Master_Award] has replaced the '''Witnessing Master Award'''.

==Then, and Now==
I won't bore you with all the details, but I think this degree will be of much more use to me. I've recently returned to the East Coast, and gotten involved in Pathfinders again... and it feels almost like I never left. That to me is one of the most wonderful feelings in the world... to be welcomed back by friends you haven't seen in well over half a decade, and it's like you never left.

One of the things that I'm really looking forward to is sharing my knowledge here on the wiki for other Pathfinders, staff, and Master Guides. I feel that is how I can minister in my own right.

Bluescifiworm: /* Recreation [Recreation Master][Wilderness Master] */

[[File:PF profile.jpg|200px|right]]

[[File:Cailin-grad2012.png|200px|right]]

==Why Bluescifiworm?==
The tag bluescifiworm has a bit of a history behind it. Originally, I picked it because it was unique (You know how hard it is to come up with something no one else has used as a online tag?). I chose it because of the following reasons.

# I like the color blue.
# I love reading scifi books, specifically, ''Star Trek'', ''Star Wars'', ''Honor Harrington'' series (by David Weber), and Anne McCaffrey's ''Dragonriders of Pern'' series.
# I'm a bit of a bookworm. Well, maybe a '''lot''' of a bookworm ;)

==A bit of background==
My name is Cailin. I am 34 years old. In May of 2012, I completed a Bachelor of Science degree at Tarleton State University in Horticulture and Landscape Management with a Business Administration minor. I also hold an Associate of Science in Graphic Design. Some may ask... "Why change fields?" Well, the answer for that is a tad bit complex. At the time I was working on my AS, Graphic Design was a highly sought-after skill, and I found myself to be reasonably skilled with it. It is difficult, however, to find a job when people are starting to be able to do this kind of work for themselves. I spent over a year looking without much success. I then moved around a bit, finally ending up in Texas during the late summer of 2006. I did find some work, but it wasn't what I was really wanting, or what made good use of my skills. After that, I spent 6 months in AmeriCorps and then 8 months working for the IRS, then I decided to go back to school. My stint in AmeriCorps had rekindled my love for the outdoors that I'd had growing up.

==Pathfinders==
I was in Pathfinders from 1998ish to about 2005. In that time, I was active in two clubs - Merrimack Valley (Manchester) and then Portsmouth Living Waters. I started Pathfinders in Merrimack Valley when Pathfinders still had the green pants and skirts. It was a BIG change uniform wise to go from green and khaki to black and khaki, but I have to admit, it looks a lot sharper, and we look less like Boy Scouts. That is not to say however, that I dislike Boy Scouts as an organization. I think they are a wonderful group of people, and when I was younger, I had opportunity to interact with quite a few. The summer camp I went to for physically challenged kids was on a Boy Scout reservation.

During my time in Pathfinders, I completed many honors, and 3 classes (now called Investiture Achievements) and began work on my Master Guide requirements as well as completing the full four years of the TLT (Teen Leadership Training) program. I thought I would have to start my Master Guide over again when I returned to Pathfindering after a 6 year absence, but I worked closely with others in my local club to complete the remaining requirements. In 2004, I had the opportunity to travel to the 2004 "Faith on Fire" International Pathfinder Camporee in Oskkosh, WI. with the Portsmouth Living Waters. '''That''' was something I will never forget.

I completed my Master Guide in May of 2013 and was invested on June 1st, 2013. I'm so glad to have it finally finished. It was a long time coming. But, with the encouragement and help of many people, I have finally completed it. Master Guide is roughly equivalent to Eagle Scout in Boy Scouts.

===Quiet Time and Sharing=== 


in today's fast paced world, it can be tough to step away for even a few minutes. A few minutes of reflection on how God is touching your life will help you focus and be thankful for the things God is doing for you. It will be insightful to see how other people feel about their quiet time exercise.

===Sleep Log=== 


Each day record when you went to bed/sleep and when you woke up. How many hours of sleep each day. Any naps? Record if you woke up during the night. Do you remember dreaming? Did you eat just before bed and did that impact your sleep? If you slept away from home, like on a camping trip, how did that change your experience? How did you feel each morning? The idea is to become aware of your sleep patterns and factors that impact how you sleep and feel.

===Are you getting enough sleep? ===

{{Bible verse

|version=NKJV
|text=
“If you turn away your foot from the Sabbath,
From doing your pleasure on My holy day,
And call the Sabbath a delight,
The holy day of the Lord honorable,
And shall honor Him, not doing your own ways,
Nor finding your own pleasure,
Nor speaking your own words,
Then you shall delight yourself in the Lord;
And I will cause you to ride on the high hills of the earth,
And feed you with the heritage of Jacob your father.
The mouth of the Lord has spoken.”
}}


{{Bible verse

Then He said to them, “What man is there among you who has one sheep, and if it falls into a pit on the Sabbath, will not lay hold of it and lift it out? Of how much more value then is a man than a sheep? Therefore it is lawful to do good on the Sabbath.”
}}

===Discussion=== 


Spending time in God's creation can help both spiritually and physically. Go on a nature hike. Collect photographs, sand, or drawings toward a Nature Honor. Spend Sabbath camping. The combination of fresh air, exercise, and nature will help clear your mind of the secular, improve your physical being, and bring you closer to God.


A day of rest every week has been proven to improve physical and mental performance. The Sabbath is good for our bodies and our minds.

'''a and b'''
Exercise keeps your organs functioning properly, avoiding blockages and poor circulation. A healthy diet is also important for weight control. Excessive weight causes disease.


On average, the number of calories you consume should equal the number of calories you burn. Calories enter the body through the things we eat and drink - in other words, from the diet. Calories are burned by physical activity. The more physically active you are, the more calories you will burn.


If you consume more calories than you burn, you will gain weight. If you burn more calories than you consume, you will lose weight. If your caloric intake equals your caloric expenditure, you will maintain your current weight. This applies no matter what you weight is. There is no weight beyond which a person cannot get any heavier (unless the excess weight results in death, as it often does).


'''c'''


The majority of Americans spend 90 percent of their time indoors and according to the Environmental Protection Agency, indoor air is twice as polluted as outdoor air. By just getting outside for 15 minutes a day, you will decrease your stress level, clear your mind and have a more positive attitude.


Every system in our bodies is dependent on oxygen, and fresh air is the easiest way to get it. Also, a sensible amount of sun exposure plays a significant role in nourishing and energizing the human body.


Actual Health Benefits of fresh air and sunshine include:
*Boost the immune system
*Lower cholesterol
*Increase metabolism
*Improves blood pressure
*Improves blood sugar
*Aids in weight loss
*Better cardiovascular health
*Better liver function
*Better kidney function
*Improve digestion
*Stronger skeleton
*Reduce stress and anxiety
*Fight depression
*Releases endorphins
*Improves skin tone and texture
*Helps improve sleep

The [https://www.hhs.gov/fitness/programs-and-awards/pala/index.html President's Challenge Active Lifestyle Program] is a program designed to bring a person's physical activity and dietary habits into a healthy balance. You can download a paper log here: [https://www.hhs.gov/sites/default/files/pala-plus.pdf PALA+ Paper Log]


[http://www.livehealthybermuda.org/ Live Healthy Bermuda] is related to Live Healthy America. They sponsor a 10-week Wellness Challenge and other programs.


In Canada the http://www.participaction.com/ ParticipACTION Teen Challenge would be an appropriate program.


The President's Challenge offers several alternative programs. The [https://www.hhs.gov/fitness/programs-and-awards/presidential-youth-fitness-program/index.html Presidential Youth Fitness Program] (which measures improvement for students in grades 4-12) or the [https://www.hhs.gov/fitness/programs-and-awards/pala/index.html President's Challenge Active Lifestyle Program] (PALA+) which requires:


'''Kids and teens''' (that’s anyone between 6 and 17 years), your goals are:


Physical activity. You need to be active 60 minutes a day, at least 5 days a week, for 6 out of 8 weeks. As an alternative, you can count your daily activity steps using a pedometer (goal: 12,000).


Healthy eating. Each week, you’ll also focus on a healthy eating goal. There are eight to choose from, and each week you will add a new goal while continuing with your previous goals. By the end of the six weeks, you’ll be giving your body more of the good stuff it needs.


'''Adults''' (that’s anyone aged 18 and older), your goals are:


Physical activity. You need to be active 30 minutes a day, at least 5 days a week, for 6 out of 8 weeks. As an alternative, you can count your daily activity steps using a pedometer (goal: 8,500).


Healthy eating. Each week, you’ll also focus on a healthy eating goal. There are eight to choose from, and each week you will add a new goal while continuing with your previous goals. By the end of the six weeks, you’ll be giving your body more of the good stuff it needs.


Note that this is a Health and Fitness requirement for all advanced class levels, so it would be best to coordinate participation as a group.
