Sunday's TNA Bound for Glory pay-per-view could very well be another of those moments for the highlight reel.
All the ingredients are there for a show-stopper. His opponent is out-of-ring best buddy and in-ring frequent nemesis A.J. Styles. The pay-per-view is considered the highlight of TNA's year and often has match- of-the-year candidates.
"AJ and I have great chemistry," said Daniels. "The number of times we've been in the ring together ... it could be more than 100. For awhile, it seemed like every promoter wanted to put us together.
"We go into it hoping to have a quality match. The personal challenge for us is to make it memorable.
"He and I have the same sensibility of what we want to get done in the ring. We just complement each other. We've got that chemistry that you maybe find once or twice in a career. I think the match has the potential to steal the show."
Daniels isn't the biggest guy in the world. Maybe 220 lbs. or so. But he's one of the world's most talented in-ring performers -- sometimes slipping beneath the radar because he doesn't wrestle within the WWE monolith.
"When I first started training, Shawn Michaels was somebody I emulated. He wasn't a bigger guy. I was about 180 lbs. and 20 years ago it would have meant I wouldn't have been in the business. But guys like Michaels and Sean Waltman (paved the way.).
Daniels also put on masks to do the Curry Man and Suicide characters in TNA.
"I was happy to get the opportunity to do something different," he said. "I had a good time doing Curry Man and with Suicide, I wanted to help TNA out."
Daniels has also had very successful runs in Ring of Honor, including one a year and a half ago, after he had been released by TNA.
"It lit a fire under me -- it was a notice to keep working hard," said Daniels. "It was a great series of matches for me: Davey Richards, Eddie Edwards, Kevin Steen, Claudio Castagnoli, Colt Cabana."
At age 40, Daniels said he's still got plenty left in the tank.
"I haven't put a time limit on it," he said. "But I'm close to being in the best shape of my career. Despite being in it for 18 years, I feel like I'm putting on pretty good matches. I've always said I'll stop when I stop having fun."
His character has jumped back and forth between heel and hero.
"I feel very comfortable when I get to play off a very good hero," he said. "Those are the kind of stories that resonate."
So, once the program with Styles is done, who's next?
"I'm comfortable working with any style," said Daniels. "And if I'm fortunate enough to get into something with a Bobby Roode or a James Storm, or guys like Kurt Angle, that would be great. But whatever TNA puts in front of me, I'm good with it."
Other Bound for Glory matches include: Angle vs. Roode; Hulk Hogan vs. Sting; and Austin Aries vs. Brian Kendrick.

I got hold of Full Moon wo Sagashite a little late, but I took an immediate liking to the fansub group a.f.k. who did the subs for this anime. I like the way they color the dialog depending on who's speaking it. It gives the subs a personal tone attributed to each character and kind of brings them to life.
Major props to you, a.f.k., if you're reading this. You're one of the best, if not the best in my book!

Who are Kyuu, and why do they rock so hard ?
I'm not normally someone who downloads fansubs, but their releases
are sometimes out before the raws even, and the sub quality is very high-
and I don't see translation mistakes that are usually ubiquitous among
speed subs.

It's been a long time since I want to thank Fansub Groups. I lived in Japan now and I try to learn Japanese, a little bit because of them. I watched a lot of anime and I discovered a world of wonderful stories. Thank you very much. I hope that maybe, in the future, I can help them with the translation (mada mada desu!)
It is a good thing to have Fansub Groups. I remember the time before Internet and I hope that Internet will stay like that: full a great people who are doing things to share with others.
Thank you so much!

1. Generation Enggelmundus
1. Generation Enggelmundus
A pretty little girl who you can dress up and adore is angelic, to say the least. Many parents who still have the dream of bearing a girl cannot help but marvel at the possibility of making their dream come true. Is it possible to determine the gender of your baby? or how to get pregnant with a girl? The simple answer to this question is that � it does not hurt to try. There is no scientific evidence to guarantee gender selection but there have been age old theories or myths that seem to have worked for some people.
This article provides you with the theories that have been talked about for so long. If you follow the tips below and achieve your dream of getting pregnant with a girl; good for you. Just keep in mind that full facts on effectiveness are hard to determine.
9 Tips On How to Get Pregnant With a Girl
1- The Shettles Theory
Dr. Shettles came up with his theory in the 1960s. He claimed that there was 75% success rate in his method for conceiving a girl. The backbone of his theory is based on timing and more timing. Girl sperm is known to be more resilient and slower when it comes to swimming. However, boy sperm is fast and dry off faster. In this regard, Dr. Shettles concluded that having sex 2 to 4 days before ovulation was the key to give the girl sperm a better chance for fertilizing the egg. He claimed that sex should be avoided during ovulation because the faster boy sperm is likely to get to the egg first. It is worth noting that not having sex when you are ovulating reduces your chances of getting pregnant with any gender.
2- The Whelan Theory
This is yet another theory that claims 57% success rate. Compared to the Shettles theory, there is a clear contradiction. Dr. Whelan advises couples who want to conceive a girl to have sex 2 to 3 days before ovulation. She goes ahead to state that those who want a boy should have sex 4 to 6 days before ovulation. With these two theories, there are couples that have found an answer and success. Whether this success is based on fact or chance is the big question. Below are more tips that people swear by when it comes to conceiving a girl.
3- Sex position
It has been established that boy sperm swims faster and do no last long. In this regard, a sex position that will not have the semen deposited too close to the cervix will allow for slower girl sperm to reach the target first. In this regard, the missionary style has been labeled the ideal sex position to get pregnant with a girl. Styles that see deeper penetration like all fours will aid the fast sperm and in this regard will not be ideal.
4- Disregard orgasms
There have been claims that the female orgasm triggers vaginal secretions that are alkaline in nature. This alkalinity is a haven for boy sperm to survive longer. Therefore, to make the environment hostile for the male sperm, acidity must be maintained and the way to do this is to put orgasms in the back banner. Having sex without orgasms for any woman is too much to ask but for the hope of conceiving that little girl; many will not hesitate to try.
5- Increase sex
There is another theory that having a lot of sex in the time leading up to ovulation will be the key to conceiving a girl. The reasoning behind this is that the man will ejaculate a lot reducing the sperm count which will also reduce the production of fast swimming male sperm. With this respect, the slow swimmers will be left making it an ideal situation to make a girl.
6- A hot bath
It is believed that boy sperm does not like heat. In this regard, a man taking a hot bath right before sex may discourage the fast swimmers. It sounds like a quick remedy to make a baby girl but if the odds are not against you, who knows; it might work.
7- Reduce salt
Some people have claimed that keeping your salt intake low is the key to conceiving a girl. Overall, a low salt diet is very healthy and it does not hurt to improve your diet. To achieve this, avoid cured and slated meats, blue cheeses, olives and processed foods. In addition, cut the salt used for cooking. In the end, no matter what gender you conceive, this is a great health decision to make.
8- Eat more acidic foods
As alluded to earlier, boy sperm does not thrive in an acidic environment. In light of this, there are claims that eating acidic foods will help encourage the girl sperm. The idea is to alter your vaginal pH through the food. Some acidic foods to consider are soda, chocolate, and vinegar. At the same time, avoiding alkaline foods will help to maintain acidity. Alkaline foods include almonds, cucumbers, avocado and apples. Keep in mind that having an acidic body is not healthy for you. In addition, alkalizing foods deliver vital nutrients that will help in the development of your baby whether boy or girl.
9- Turn to fruits and vegetables
Some people believe that eating more fruits and vegetables can increase your odds of conceiving a girl. Foods such as spinach, broccoli and nuts have been highly praised. Leafy greens, fruits, and rice are particularly loved as part of a vegetarian diet. Some claim that it is the high amounts of calcium and magnesium that do the trick.
Clearly, there are so many remedies that claim to work well when looking on how to get pregnant with a girl. Do not forget that nothing has been proven scientifically and in this regard, there is no guarantee that any method is going to work. Consulting your health care provider on this issue will shed more light and help you get to understand the dynamics therein. Ultimately, you want to conceive a healthy baby and this should be your focus as much as you are seeking for a certain gender.

Looking at the Vancouver Giants' accomplishments, you'd swear they'd been part of major junior hockey for years. They have a Memorial Cup win and five B.C. Division titles.
How impressive is it, then, that this team is only 10 years old?
Vancouver Giants Thru the Years
The Vancouver Giants are something else. They have a star-studded ownership group that includes singer Michael Buble, Hall of Famer Gordie Howe and former NHL coach Pat Quinn.
Their alumni include Milan Lucic, Evander Kane, Cody Franson and Gilbert Brule, among many others to make a recent impact at the NHL level.
Their head coach is Don Hay, a legend with three Memorial Cups to his name.
The Giants came to be in 2001-02. They won just 13 games in their inaugural season but jumped to 26 wins in 2002-03, 33 wins the year after that and 34 wins the year after that. Then came the Giants' run of glory.
From 2005-06 to 2009-10, the Giants won the Western Hockey League's B.C. Division five consecutive times. They won the WHL Championship in 2006 before losing in the Memorial Cup final.
Their crowning achievement came in 2007 when they returned to the Memorial Cup as the host team and won it.
The hero on that squad was Lucic, who won the Stafford Smythe Memorial Trophy as tournament MVP.
Let's face it – Vancouver is spoiled with great hockey teams.
It has the Canucks and, in the Giants, a powerhouse junior franchise that has rapidly established a tradition of winning.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. - For the seventh time in the programs' histories, the MIT men's and women's fencing teams won the New England Championship during the same campaign. The men's squad collected its 24th title and sixth during head coach Jarek Koniusz's 13-year tenure while the women tallied their 14th crown and 10th during the same time span.
A margin of three victories over Boston College was just enough to help the men's team secure its first championship since 2005-06. Junior Igor Kopylov (10-2) earned his third straight sabre title, becoming the first person to achieve this milestone since Allan Williams won three consecutive epee crowns from 1982-85. The Engineers tied Boston College for first place in the sabre competition as Maximilian Brand (9-3, sixth place) and Rangarajan Nadadur (10-1, 10th) rounded out the squad in the individual rankings.
The foil team posted a 29-7 mark en route to a second-place finish. Senior Spencer Sugimoto (9-3) placed second, equaling his best finish which occurred during his rookie campaign. Benjamin Switala and Richard LaGrandier captured the 10th and 11th slots with identical records of 10-2.
Gabriel Chan emerged from the epee "B" pool to record a fifth-place finish while MIT captured third as a team. Matt Gethers captured seventh behind a 10-2 outing while Jeremy Hurwitz just missed the cut as finished third with a 10-2 ledger in the "C" pool.
After back-to-back runner-up finishes, the women's team claimed its first New England Championship since 2004-05 as it edged out Wellesley College by six victories in the final team standings.
Cordelia Link's 12-0 performance in the top foil pool helped power the Engineers to a first-place tie with Wellesley as she finished second in the individual rankings. Lindley Graham compiled a mark of 10-3 in the "B" pool while placing seventh overall. In the "C" pool, Chun Li went 11-2 before finishing 12th among all competitors.
The sabre squad placed second with a record of 30-8. Yuhsin Chen registered a career-best fourth-place finish while notching a mark of 11-2. In her first appearance, Elena Tatarchenko ranked seventh after emerging from the "C" pool with a 10-2 total. Laura Evans bolstered the Engineers' efforts with a 12th-place finish and a 9-4 ledger in the "B" pool.
The epee team improved upon last year's performance by capturing fourth place. Stephanie Shin anchored the squad with a 10-3 record as she finished ninth in the individual standings.

GPHOF has outlined a number of key facts missing from Seeking Alpha's recent editorial on ways to solve Tesla's graphite problem, essential for them to develop the new generation of car batteries.
Punta Cana, Dominican Republic -- (SBWIRE) -- 04/03/2014 -- Highly regarded research analyst for natural commodities Gareth Hatch recently published an article speculating on plausible solutions to Tesla's graphite problem. The company will require over a hundred thousand tons of naturally sourced, battery grade graphite a year to fulfil their 2020 goal to create five hundred million battery powered cars. In investigating solutions however, GPHOF Reports has drawn attention to a glaring omission in the research, revealing a information about the Graphite One Resources Inc. , one of companies that can be involved in "Graphite Race".
GPHOF Reports is a site that offers information primarily to investors on Graphite deposits, Graphite Juniors and more, they identified Graphite One Resources Inc several weeks ago in relation to Tesla's gigafactory as a potential source. When they were left out of the Seeking Alpha article, GPHOF aimed to redress the balance by inviting the management to address the challenges from Seeking Alpha's article one by one in regards to their own operation.
The exclusive interview was inspiring to say the least, explaining the company's plans for thermal purification of high grade Graphite, their low strip ratio and high concentration of high grade graphite. The management emphasizes the fact that they have the closest proximity to the south-western US Tesla plant, relative to competitors in Madagascar and Mozambique, and have high level of surface-level deposits to keep costs low.
A spokesperson for GPHOF Reports explained, "The problem with graphite supplies can be solved efficiently and right here within the US with the benefit of Graphite One Resources Inc and other qualified graphite mining companies. Tesla's PR already made a statement. We can only assume that the researchers did not hit upon this young and up and coming mining company, which is why we went the extra mile to offer them the opportunity to speak for themselves. They have done so at length, and addressed point by point how they can meet the challenges of the Tesla gigafactory, it makes for very exciting reading."

After spending 18 months working on our Unified Development Ordinance, you will begin seeing the changes take effect. The Town of Bluffton Growth Management Department recently initiated a community-based code enforcement program establishing Standard Operating Procedures for code enforcement actions related to the Unified Development Ordinance.
Unified Development Ordinance related violations include items such as signs, trees, historic district site features, and others. Our sign ordinance is one that has been in place for many years, but with the recent downturn in our economy, the town decided to hold off on enforcement of this ordinance. We have received numerous complaints of not enforcing this, so the decision to begin enforcement was made. This part of our ordinance is very similar to the county and the town of Hilton Head, and these areas are also being enforced by the appropriate governments.
Town staff has begun conducting regular code enforcement inspections specifically related to signs and will conduct inspections for other potential violations as needed. Prior to the commencement of regular inspections, letters were sent to all business license holders in the town of Bluffton. The letter informed business owners of the sign regulations as well as potential penalties associated with violations. Business owners were provided a grace period in which they were able to remedy any violations prior to commencement of inspections.
As stated in Article 8 of the Unified Development Ordinance, prohibited signs may be confiscated by town staff without notice to the violator. More than 150 prohibited signs have been confiscated by town staff during the months of August and September. In addition, notices have also been sent to businesses and property owners related to other sign violations including installation of signs without a permit and other illegal sign types.
The general public, town staff, or a member of Town Council or a council appointed board/commission member may submit Unified Development Ordinance related complaints or concerns to the Town of Bluffton Customer Service Center by calling 843.706.4522 or in person at Town Hall located at 20 Bridge Street in the Old Town Bluffton Historic District.
A member of staff will conduct a site inspection to investigate the concern. A notice of Violation Letter will be sent if a violation is found to exist on the property.
Remember to recycle and record it
Have you logged in this week and said that you recycled? If not, please remember to go to www.recyclebank.com/greenchoices and do so. If you haven't begun, it is a very easy process to sign up. The town and Sun City Hilton Head are partnering in this challenge with a chance to win $100,000 for a sustainable project in our two communities.
If you ever have questions about our wonderful town, don't hesitate to contact Town Hall at 706-4500 or email Lisa Sulka at email@example.com.

sits in solid phalanx and writes the postscripts column we have been ad dicted to sleeplessness why once when we were in the midst of an epi demic of courting we remember we lost so much sleep that our parents noticed it but that is neither hero nor there what we wish to have understood now is that we do not always go to sleep when we make ready to do so it was therefore with a feeling of deep gratitude to the rev theod«re b lyraan episcopal bishop of north carolina that we read his interesting letter recently published in the raleigh news-observer recommending peanuts nnd milk taken just before going to bed as a sure cure for sleeplessness we have not the honor and pleasure of a personal acquaintance with bishop lynian but from certain tests we have recently made we have learned to re gard him as a man of overwhelming not to say dangerous veracity the peanuts and milk did cure our sleep lessness we had devoured only the hrst quart of peanuts and imbibed only one pitchei of milk when we found ourself not in bed when we had left onrself but standing in the midst of a crowd on the under side of the moon with our head walking around on ai - other man's shoulders this va ; very attractive but not precisely the situa tion we should have nominated ourself to fill if we had been consulted then we had a variety of experiences for instance we walked off the edge of the world and went dropping through space till we broke into pieces as a mud ball dropped from precip d does and each piece became r separate dream and each dream a mas»-iueetiug of hor rors this sort of thing went on from worse than anything to worse than that until morning when we uwoke we found ourself all tangled up in something about the color of vir ginia clay on uncoiling it and fol lowing it up to its source we found it to be our breath as soon as we could reach the shears and cut it off we said something about peanuts and milk something that our sense of propriety if nothing else would keep us from saying in the presence of bishop ly nian and now since we have prcv ed to ourself that the worthy bishop reallv found a cure for insomnia we are devoting ourself tirelessly to insomnia as a possible preventive of peanuts and milk we are afraid to go to sleep — lest some more peanuts and milk catch us unawares wanamaker'g sunday school prof if u mecu-llan in christian observer i reached

Raleigh, Nc — Poor business practices ultimately led the North Carolina attorney general's office to begin its investigation of Charlotte, NC-based Peak Fitness three years ago, leading to two lawsuits and subsequent settlements. And poor business practices, some club operators say, has led Peak Fitness to its current status.
Last month, Peak Fitness closed three clubs in the Raleigh, NC, area, with four more clubs expected to be sold or closed within 90 days, leaving the company with a few scattered clubs in the Carolinas, most of which are in Charlotte.
Peak Fitness has arranged for members of its closed clubs to go to St. Petersburg, FL-based Lifestyle Family Fitness, which has four clubs in the area. McLean, VA-based Titan Fitness, which operates five Gold's Gyms in the area, arranged for members of a Peak Fitness club that closed in April to go to one of its locations.
"We've been watching for a while as Peak has been pulling out of the Raleigh market," says Aaron Lieberman, chief development officer for Titan Fitness, which honors existing rates of all displaced Peak Fitness members.
The low price points of its prepaid annual memberships led to Peak Fitness' downfall, say Geoff Dyer, founder of Lifestyle, and Kevin Hedley, COO of O2 Fitness, which has five clubs in the Triangle (Raleigh, Chapel Hill, Durham). Peak Fitness sold two-year memberships between $149 and $199, three-year memberships for a little more than $500 and had a buy one year, get one year free option at $199. Peak Fitness, which also has monthly options, reached a settlement with the attorney general's office in May that forbids the company from selling prepaid memberships until it secures the bonds required by state law.
"Simply put, the cost of operating facilities the size of Peak cannot be sustained by this low cost of membership," Hedley says. "The amount of cash collected in this model barely covers the bills and does not allow for any capital improvements, cleaning or quality staff to service the customers."
Dyer says successful clubs manage their revenue and collect it on a monthly basis.
"Clubs that sell prepaid annual or multi-year memberships usually don't have a sophisticated accounting system," Dyer says. "They spend [money] as it comes in. When clubs aggressively sell prepaid memberships, it catches up to them. Clubs that underprice their product are going to have challenges in the future when their prepaid memberships slow down."
Hedley says a club with a negative reputation can negatively affect other operators. "It is difficult to convince members to re-enroll at a facility with higher rates, even though these rates are fair and necessary to sustain a clean, supportive and healthy environment," he says.

Post subject: Funds for CA Launch Sites
You have a chance to ask the State of California to spend money to improve your favorite launch site. The California Department of Boating and Waterways (DBW) is conducting its first-ever study of non-motorized boating in California. A major focus for DBW is to provide grants and loans for boating facilities such as launch ramps and marinas. DBW is considering providing more support to this growing boating community. As a first step in further planning and potential support for non-motorized boating, DBW seeks to understand how many non-motorized boaters there are in California, the boats they own, and where and why they boat.
Please take the time to complete the survey. DBW will evaluate the need for improvement in large part based on the responses they receive:
The survey asks at one point how many windsurf boards or kite boards you own. If you own more sails of kites than boards, then you should average the number of board and sail/kites in order to give them a sense of how many full sets you own.
Where the name of a waterway is asked for, you should list the site you sail at. If you know of a site that needs improvement (e.g. Third Avenue (Foster City) needing more parking), make sure you list that site and its needs.

If I lived or sailed there, Id be glad to oblige.
In the meantime, I had to contrast that concept to sailing in NM. There we just drive to a lake, park where the mood strikes us -- wherever a 4X4 can get us at some of the best lakes -- rig, and jump in the water. Heck, Ive parked IN the water a few times.
Different worlds.

I started filling out the survey, than I started thinking something is fishy here. I hate being forever skeptical, but we are dealing with the government. I couldnt help but think why do they need to know how many boards or kayaks I have? I just cant help but feel that they are looking at us as a potential tax base. Im supposed to believe the state of California has all this extra money that they need to spend on waterways?

Ill never forget -- nor forgive -- hearing the same question from the ranger at the booth as I entered Lake Lopez. There was no wind; I just had never seen it before, was passing through on my way to the Gorge, and wanted to pull in and eat my sandwich.
How many boards and sails do you have, sir?
I dont know . . . several boards and 6-8 sails, I suppose.
Well, I need an exact count to determine your fee.
But I just wanna eat my sandwich. Ill be outta here in 20 minutes. Why does anyone care how much gear is in my van if its not a factor?
Sir, I need an exact count.
I looked in my van, sort of counted stuff, and gave her a number.
That will be $78.00, sir.
After my involuntary snort, two things dawned on me: She wasnt joking, and I had just entered the foreign nation of Kahlifornistan.
I drove away (to an even MORE officious abuse right around the corner) , and havent been back since . . . to the STATE . . . and that was 20 years ago. There are too many better ways and places to waste money and risk abuse from officials.
Yeah, I know some state parks honcho said a few years ago that their park fee structure was prohibitive and needed revamping, but the tone was set way back then for me: How much did you earn this year? Great; Send it in.
I cant believe half the nation supports this kind of thinking.

Lopez is not a state park. State parks do not charge per board, just an entry fee. Private or county parks are known to charge per board. That philosophy is a big ripoff. What if I dont use that board?

What you are describing is exactly what I did 115 days this year - in and around San Francisco Bay. I dont sail lakes anyway, maybe thats why I dont understand your issues with CA.

Isos is just a very high energy, opinionated guy who thinks he lives in the greatest windsurfing spot on earth. And in his mind he does.
But I do sense a little jealousy there as well. And he is not alone. When I was in the Marine Corps it seemed like the USA was treated as two countries, CA and the other 49 states.
Jealousy you say? Yes, jealousy. Think about it. If CA was such a horrible place, then why do so many people want to move here only to be turned away by high property values? And even with the high property values people are still moving here. If you sing the praises of where you live, then you truly love it. But if you must badmouth a place where you dont live, than it can only be jealousy.
Northern CA isnt a perfect place, but it sure has much to offer. Right now, I cant think of a better place to live for a windsurfer other than maybe Hawaii. And since life for most of us is more than windsurfing, Northern Ca beats Hawaii hands down.

Lets not forget SoCal. The sailing here is not bad (definitely not as good as NoCal, but I would be willing to bet better than any state that does NOT have a coastline - lightwind wavesailing still beats high wind bump and jump in my biased mind). Plus it is not far to drive to the central CA coast.
For what it is worth I filled in the survey.

So you can go off-road 4-wheeling on the shorelines of SFBay, launching pretty much where the mood strikes you and the wind and current work best? The Delta, I can see -- and have done -- that, but its surprising and impressive for a big city anywhere.

They want to know how much gear you have and how much you spend, because it can be the basis for arguing that some of the many millions of dollars raised through state bond issues should be spent on non-motorized recreation instead of having it all go to marinas and large boat ramps, etc.

There's never been a better time
to apply to Otterbein University.
Apply online today!
Q. I would like to be a math teacher. Does Otterbein have a program for this?
A. Otterbein offers teacher licensure in Integrated Mathematics, which allows you to teach grades 7-12. Contact the Department of Education for details.
Q. What can I do with a math degree?
Mathematics is an essential part of many different career fields. Many
students with Bachelors or Masters degrees in mathematics find jobs in
industry or government in such fields as aerospace, electronics,
communications, insurance, and banking. Operations research is a growing
field in which mathematics is applied to industrial problems of
resource allocation, production scheduling, and distribution. There is
also consistent demand for statisticians in government, industry, and
Q. I do not intend to major in math. How many math courses am I required to take?
A. Mathematics
requirements vary by degree. The Bachelor of Science degree, for
instance, requires mathematics through Calculus II while the Bachelor of
Fine Arts degree requires no mathematics at all. The number of courses
you need to take also depends on your score on Otterbein's mathematics
placement exam taken during summer orientation.
Q. Why do I have to take a math placement exam?
Remember the story about the three bears? We want to be sure your first
mathematics course at Otterbein is neither too easy nor too difficult,
but just right for you. We want you to succeed so we offer courses at
several different levels. High school and college courses with similar
names vary greatly in topics and/or in the dept of coverage for
corresponding topics. Placement exams are a better indicator of your
mathematical maturity, and are used everywhere.
Q. What if I have a bad math day and do poorly on the math placement exam; can I take it again?
No, the placement exam can be taken only once. If you feel your
placement exam score does not reflect your true level of mathematical
maturity, you may request to take the final exam of a specific course
for possible placement into the next higher course.
Math tutoring at Otterbein is provided by the Academic Support Center. It is located on the 2nd floor of the Courtright Memorial Library. The Math Specialist is Ann Biancamano, 614.823.1823.

DENVER — Familiar themes will dominate the 2012 legislative session — economic growth, school funding and taxes — but they'll be complicated by an election year in which lawmakers are fighting to keep their seats and a few are running for Congress.
With that in mind, Democratic Gov. John Hickenlooper has been preaching collaboration for the session that starts Wednesday.
"If we're all willing to put our shoulders to it and really collaborate and work together at a very high level, we can again find that special sauce that has always defined the American can-do attitude," he told a group in downtown Denver last week.
The biggest test will come with the budget, where lawmakers have to make nearly $700 million in cuts.
Republicans in charge of the House are pushing hard to keep a $98.6 million property tax break for seniors. The voter-approved credit allows homeowners 65 years and older to deduct 50 percent of the first $200,000 of property value on their taxes.
Hickenlooper has said the state can't afford the whole tax break. He wants to keep only $17.5 million of it for rent, heat and property tax help for low-income seniors.
The GOP maintains that scaling back Medicaid spending — the biggest proposed spending increase in next year's budget — can pay for the senior tax break and for schools. Medicaid would account for $185.6 million of the $227.1 million spending increase in Hickenlooper's proposed general fund budget, which is expected to be at about $7.4 billion.
The bad economy has made more people eligible for Medicaid. Hickenlooper has repeatedly said increases in Medicaid spending are mandatory under federal law, and that because of the required increases, other areas of the budget must be cut.
The potential for gridlock doesn't end there.
Ask lawmakers what they'll work on next session and they usually say creating jobs and growing the economy. Republicans want to cut what they say are burdensome state regulations on businesses. Democrats, who control the Senate, want to create incentives for the state to buy Colorado-manufactured goods and to award more contracts to companies that employ local workers. The latter will be the first bill introduced in the Senate, but Republican House Speaker Frank McNulty has already rebuked it.
"Their first bill out of the chute, their first jobs bill, their first economic development bill, creates new hurdles to jump over and new hoops to jump through for Colorado businesses and those wishing to create jobs in our state," McNulty said recently.
Democratic Senate President Brandon Shaffer said he thinks it's an idea that will create jobs and one he believes Colorado residents support.
"I think conceptually — buy locally, buy Colorado-specific products and hire Colorado-specific employers and employees — makes a lot of sense. I think it's something that resonates with the people of Colorado for sure," he said.
Other matters lawmakers will debate this session:
— An overhaul of how the state treats its employees, including how they're hired and disciplined. Proposed changes would have to be referred to voters because the personnel system is laid out in the state constitution. Supporters of the change say the current personnel guidelines are too rigid, costly and give the state little flexibility in dealing with its employees.
— A proposal to allow same-sex couples to enter civil unions, with many of the benefits enjoyed by married couples. A bill introduced last year passed the Democrat-controlled Senate but failed in the House.
— A measure to grant in-state tuition to illegal immigrants who graduated from Colorado high schools. Last year's bill failed.
— A Republican proposal to reinstate a spending limit on the state budget, capping its growth at 6 percent from the previous year. Republicans want half the money above that limit to be put in the state reserves and use the rest for transportation and capital construction.
— More oversight of online schools, which critics argue are underperforming compared to traditional schools.
— K-12 education originally faced an $89 million cut to balance next year's budget, but better-than-expected tax receipts in December prompted Hickenlooper to propose rescinding the entire cut and also restore half of a $60 million proposed reduction to public colleges.
Some lawmakers voting on these issues face tough re-election campaigns, including Republican incumbents who now share the same districts because of a bitter state redistricting process. Democrats drew the maps and the state Supreme Court approved them.
The incumbent pairings and political ambitions of some lawmakers could produce little wiggle room for compromise as they try ingratiating themselves with folks at home.
Other lawmakers are running for Congress, setting up possible distractions.
Shaffer is challenging Republican Rep. Cory Gardner, the incumbent in the 4th District. Democratic Rep. Sal Pace is trying to unseat Republican Rep. Scott Tipton in the 3rd District, and in the 6th District, Democratic Rep. Joe Miklosi is seeking to upset Republican Rep. Mike Coffman.
Both Tipton and Gardner were serving in the Legislature when they ran for Congress in 2010, and Democrats charged then that they were missing too many votes while worrying about their federal races.
McNulty said he's mindful of the congressional contests and their potential impact on the session.
"It is something that I'm concerned about — one of those external forces that could weigh in at different times and in different ways this legislative session," he said.
