Scammer acts deaf to prey on 'vulnerable'
Social media used to gain victim's trust
Trevor Wilhelm, The Windsor StarPublished: Friday, July 19, 2013
Investigators are hoping karma finds the "scum" who pretended to be deaf to gain the trust of hearing impaired people then ripped them off, including one victim who lost more than $100,000.
"You're scum, man, going after someone like that," said Const. Fabio Marion with the Windsor police financial crimes unit.
"We see all kinds of things in here. But when you're preying on a small tight-knit community like that, it's pretty scummy. Hopefully karma comes into the picture."
The lottery scam began in March 2012. But it wasn't reported to the financial crimes unit until Wednesday, through the Windsor police community outreach and support unit.
Police said the con artist scammed his way into the tight-knit group by pretending to be deaf and preying on the trust of the "small, potentially vulnerable community."
Adding insult to injury, Marion said, the victim didn't have the money to lose in the first place.
"The payouts were financed through debt, loans," he said. "It's totally disrupted this person's life. We're hoping the bank will be co-operative with our victim in some way. They have been in the past, but there are no guarantees on that."
Police know of one victim so far, but expect that to change.
"We're hoping it's only one victim," said Marion. "But from an investigation point of view we believe this may be more widespread within the deaf community."
He spoke with the victim Wednesday through an interpreter.
Police aren't revealing anything about the victim, including the gender, at the request of the Canadian Hearing Society.
Marion said the crook gained the trust of one person, who introduced him to the victim through Facebook.
The person who put the thief and the victim together has since died.
"I'm working on contacting his parents because I've got a feeling he was potentially a victim as well," said Marion.
The man claimed to have a job in Ottawa with a hard-ofhearing association. He also claimed he ran a lottery.
"He would solicit people to buy tickets," said Marion. "Our victim bought a ticket, and down the road found out they were supposedly a $300,000 winner. Then the scam starts from there."
The scammer told the victim a processing fee of $2,500 was required to get the prize. The victim paid it.
"Once that's sent, they know they've got a live one, so to speak," said Marion. "Then they ask for more money. In this case it was $15,000 for taxation purposes."
The victim paid that. Then the man told the victim the prize amount increased, first to $500,000, then $750,00, then to $1 million.
Each time the prize increased, more taxes and fees were required.
"Big picture, our victim paid out a little over $100,000," said Marion.
The victim's first payment to him was in August 2012. The last payout was in January. They never met in person.
"He had promised the victim would get their winnings by Christmas of 2012," said Marion.
"When that didn't materialize, our victim was like, 'what's going on here?'" Despite that, the victim didn't report what happened until this week.

Retailers' Descriptions
Here's what other sites are saying:
When temps dip down enough to make Jack Frost shiver, the Kelty Cosmic Down 4degF sleeping bag will provide exceptional warmth to keep the icicles from forming around your nose! Soft, high-loft 550-fill-power duck down insulation provides exceptional warmth and light weight. Baffle construction with differential cut eliminates cold spots; inner layer is cut smaller than the outer layer to create consistent thickness of insulation. Polyester taffeta creates a smooth yet durable shell; polyester taffeta lining breathes for comfort and feels great against skin. Top baffle draft collar drapes comfortably over neck and shoulders, sealing out drafts. Formfitting hood has drawcords of differing widths at head and neck for easy identification and adjustment in the dark. Ground-level side seam keeps draft tube in place, further helping prevent cold air from seeping through the 2-way, locking zipper. Internal loops provide attachment for a liner (sold separately) to increase the warmth of the bag. Pad loops provide attachment points to keep your sleeping bag and pad together, so you needn't worry about rolling onto the cold, hard ground (straps sold separately). Hang loops allow easy drying and storage. Kelty Cosmic Down 4degF sleeping bag comes with a stuff sack.

-Tara L.
THANK YOU!!! First, you have no idea how many compliments I got on my makeup & hair. It really did last all day & all night (9am-3am to be exact). One of my friends suggested I send you a picture from the after-party, about 12 hours later, not a hair moved, I still looked perfect. And I wasn't just standing around, it was after hours of dancing, eating & drinking. And that lipstick was amazing!–people actually commented to me that I still had lipstick on hours later! Second, all of the girls looked GREAT!!! I can't wait to see the pictures. Not to mention that you guys were there right at 5:45am on the dot as planned. John & I were very impressed, it meant a lot to start the day with your professionalism & great personality. We had the best day ever, everything went perfectly. I cannot thank you enough.

-Gloria M.
Megan, as always, you were fantastic. You are a true professional and extremely talented at hair and makeup. Guests at my wedding are still in shock that I was wearing extensions – the color matched my hair so perfectly!

All in all, many, many thanks for making my mother, sister, BROTHER, and entire bridal party absolutely gorgeous!
-Sharon G.
I got so many compliments on my hair and makeup. Thank you for primping my mom and being patient with us both. You were the perfect person for my wedding – I cannot imagine having it any other way.
-Lynn A.

Duracell MyGrid cable-free gadget charger
Cable-free charging is nothing new, the notion having been pioneered by Powermat, but the big names in consumer power have now taken note of the technology and have introduced their big-brand alternatives. Duracell MyGrid Charge Pad Duracell's MyGrid Charge Pad: handy if you've several devices you need to charge at once Take …
My word.....
What are they thinking?. 90 quid to replace the charger that came free with my phone? I dont suppose they'll sell many.
Got to use a minging case
Got to take it off to sync
Got to stick some hideous metal disc on the back
Energy efficiency
Empty wallet
Might save one wall socket if I charge 2 devices. That will cost another 20 quid though.
Will have spare charger for putting under a realy, really short table leg
Will finally have something to occupy that bit of spare space on the sideboard.
Seriously, Id be surprised if they sell any. Their customer list will be a veritable whos-who of utter morons.
If wall sockets really are an issue, there are plenty of better ways to address your problems without parting company with 110 quid. Give me £50 and ill give you a 79p solution.
Spot On
I'm grateful to you for confirming to me that I'm not the only person that really doesn't see the point of these devices.
These devices are a solution looking for a problem, really what is so difficult or complicated about plugging a phone in to the correct charger?
Plus its easier to carry a charger around than all of this kit.
Seriously when I got my latest Blackberry it cost less than £30 to get a second charger for the office, 2 car chargers and a cradle dock for it so I will be happily able to charge my phone anywhere I am likely to be on a regular basis.
Agree with your post entirely...however I wasn't aware that charging devices with a regular dock was a problem in the first place!
@It wasnt me
You've got it spot on there. This kind of technology is pretty pointless when you still have to carry your phone around with a connector always in place (which you'll then have to remove if you want to connect it to a computer).
This is a solution looking for a problem that doesn't exist.
Now, if the phone manufacturers could agree on a standard to include this sort of things WITHIN the phone itself.....
Agree, but.....
Totally agree with the sentiments here - why would you pay £xxx for any extra charger and need to use a special case (that looks terrible and adds bulk).
But let's move on (and back slightly) - last year the phone makers (except Apple) approved the adoption of a single connector for charging. A great move forward that solves the multiple charger single socket problem and saves the planet.
Now all we need is for all the manufacturers to build wireless charging into the device and these mats suddenly look very useful indeed.
OK, so we're a long way off, and there are still drawbacks and costs, but in 5-10 years time this will be the norm. You're next kitchen will probably come with a charging pad "bay" as an option.
You'd definitely have to mental to buy one.
This is especially true given that all non Apple phones now have the same micro USB port so they all share chargers. This means you can have one on your desk at work, one by the bed, one by the TV and they will fit all your phones. Very few people need to charge more than one phone at the same time, they generally run low on charge at different times.
You are far from the only one...
Not only can is this expensive, less efficient, ugly as hell and less portable, it is less useful as an actual charger... at least with my wall charger in I can still use my damn phone within cable distance of a plug, with something like this I have to put it down and leave it until it has enough charge to be useful again... what a total waste of R&D.
Come back to us when it is TRUE wireless power, i.e it charges my device when placed anywhere within the same room, or at least within 6ft ish of the charger AND is as efficient as using a cable. Seriously when we are supposed to be eco friendly stupid products like this Duracell thing should be forgotten at the 1st meeting.
The most epic of fails, epic on the scale of taking all the epic-ness from every Hollywood historical epic film (Spartacus et al.) and adding a few orders of magnitude then inverting it into fail-epic and applying it to product design.
Brilliant! £70 to charge my batteries you say? That's way better than the standard charger that comes with the phone!
Suppose it's ok if you dexterity issues and find chargers to fiddly to plug in. Apart from that I can't see why anyone would want to drop 70 notes on this when it could be better invested in a hooker for the evening.
Have they not checked?
There is an international project and a research group named MyGrid already.. founded around year 2000.
Do the people who name products ever check ...
Or are their brains sadly Dura-but-Single-Cell?
Still pointless.
A "triple adaptor" plug socket is much, much cheaper and will allow you to charge three devices simultaneously using the adaptors you already have -- so no stupid stick-on "adaptor".
Since most, if not all, new smart-phones will be chargeable using a micro USB charger you should soon be able to use the adaptor for any phone to charge any other -- so even in a family or office situation this just won't be needed.
As has been mentioned before in comments -- inductive charging is only a good thing for sealed devices such as toothbrushes.
Still, I suspect that the manufacturers will manage to con enough people into buying things like this that in a few years you'll have to buy an inductive charge phone, for more money than it would hvea cost if it weren't, whether you like it or not.
Waste of money
So this cable-free system still requires you to plug something into your phone? In some cases a large lump of plastic that I presume you have to lug around with you just to save the 2 seconds it takes to charge in the old fashion way.
Why wouldn't I just save £90 and plug, for the sake of argument, a phone charger into my phone?
With new phones/devices using micro-USB you are going to be spoilt for choice for normal charging points in any house/office within 12 months.
On Dragons Den this product would get chewed and spat out. It identifies a problem and fails to solve it without much change from £100 vs £5 for a normal charger.
Until this tech starts appearing by default in lots of different devices (in a standard way) all these things will flop.
As "It wasn't me" said. You'd have to be an idiot to spend about £100 on a gizmo that does a worse job than the cable you got for free.
Looks to me
like a me too! device that wasn't thought through properly. If you can take the clip off and have to put it on to charge it, how does that make it any simpler than finding the charger cable? I can imagine running round trying to find the clip because it got knoked somewhere dhen the dog ran through the room or something equally stupid.
Lame and poorly executed bandwagon jumper it seems.
fool and his money?
I get the charger for the house . Then what do I do for work when I want to make sure my smartphone is fully charged? I mean obviously I just let it charge through the usb port.
Oh hang on, I can do that at home as well?
I really really don't understand why these devices exist . Yes it's insane that chargers don't have a standard, but fix that rather than come up with wierd non-solutions. Lets face it , more and more devices have usb connectors which they can charge through ( though not all depressingly).
In fact, does this charge anything other than devices that take the various usb connectors(+nokia but which nokia?) ?
90 quid device, replacable by a 1 quid wire.... err you know, I'll pass :)
( and I bet the wire is more energy efficient!)
What the engineer giveth
..the other engineer taketh.
No sooner have one set of mobile device engineers got their head around switched mode PSUs to alleviate energy vampirism when along comes another lot trying to roll out wireless electricity transmission.
On the plus side the EU has at least mandated that charging by USB has to be mandatory on all new phones. Just a shame they couldn't all agree on a standard connector.
The mat uses a cable, it needs a wall socket, doesn't run on pixie dust.. This is a gimmick.
To quote the dragons...
They're solving a problem that doesn't exist. Unless phones all have this ability built in, and many places have compatible chargers, like hotels, what's the point? It takes me 1s to plug my phone into a charger and I can pick it up and use it while charging.
the point?
Surely if you're going to have to attach a special case to the device why don't they just design the case with 2 terminals on the back and corresponding terminals on some form of dock which you just drop the device onto? Like a normal cordless phone.
I have some rechargeable LED lights which do just this - each one has a terminal on the bottom (a ring with a single point in the centre) which line up with the points on their base unit. And they only cost a tenner...
The EASY
solution, is a standard power connector.
Standard for phones, standard for consumer 'tronics (cam corders etc) would make life much much simpler. Also, one device would charge a multitude of others..
Obvious solution....
Brains because, well, it took none...
Not inductive charging
I don't know if anyone else has noticed, but it has four contacts, and they seem to touch the bars on the charger. I'd guess that they are alternately +/- and the contacts have a bunch of diodes to sort out +/- so no induction is necessary.
Given that you have to put the devices *on* the mat & encase your gadget with something that increases its bulk, I really don't see the point in these. I just got one of those iDapt things you guys reviewed recently, and I think it's great. Tidied away all our chargers and just use the iDapt - don't have to put a stupid case around the gadget either.
And pigs fry
Are those bare electrified metal strips on the surface? The important question now is AC or DC. AC could do a nice job of heating a piece of cured ham but DC would make a big rusty mess. The review needs to be updated, as being able to heat salty slabs of meat could possibly make the device useful.
What I'd really like to see...
So a product only of use to those to lazy to plug a connector into the bottom of a phone?
I also see a problem. There surely can't be many people who haven't quickly had to locate their charger as they are warned of a low battery level during a call in order to continue it. It's not going to be very easy to do that with a device like this one.
I'd echo all those that just want a standard connector. In fact I'd go further - I'd like a general purpose multi-outlet DC "brick" whith a single connector type that can negotiate with the devices it's powering. That way I could replace a dozen or more DC adapters with one or two. I could have a single device for powering a laptop, a router, charge a phone, the camcorder, a USB drive, battery charger, printer, speakers...
Better idea: wirelessly rechargeable AA batteries
Would make recharging wiimotes less of a hassle.
Some genius idea
I saw recently someone came up with the idea of a USB socket in a power outlet plate, underneath the regular plug socket. Now that's genius - just plug your phone's USB straight in!

Castelluccio Sangiovese Ronco dei Ciliegi
Sku: 1802712
3 day lead-time required to confirm availability Why?
The area known as Ronco dei Ciliegi (outcrop of cherry-trees) is one of the two historic "Ronchi" in the Castelluccio Estate. The name is linked to an easily identifiable landmark that can be seen from the access road: two large Cherry trees that rise from the surrounding bushes that indicate the border.There are two different Sangiovese clones planted in this "Ronco." In the lower area the variety is of the same clone used in Ronco delle Ginestre, i.e. sparse bunches and small grapes. In the upper area the clone is of larger and more intense dark grapes.
The vineyard is at an altitude of about 320-340 meters, and although it is only 300 meters away from Ronco delle Ginestre, it presents very different micro-climate and soil conditions, to produce a completely different final product.
Ronco dei Ciliegi, more elegant than powerful, has the tendency to reach its full balance after a short aging period.

Journal of Computer-Aided Molecular Design, 23 (4). pp. 241-252. ISSN 0920-654X (Print) 1573-4951 (Online)

Comparative molecular field analysis (CoMFA) and quantum chemical calculations were performed on cycloguanil (Cyc) derivatives of the wild type and the quadruple mutant (Asn51Ile, Cys59Arg, Ser108Asn, Ile164Leu) of Plasmodium falciparum dihydrofolate reductase (PfDHFR). The represented CoMFA models of wild type ( and r 2 = 0.985) and mutant type ( and r 2 = 0.979) can describe the differences of the Cyc structural requirements for the two types of PfDHFR enzymes and can be useful to guide the design of new inhibitors. Moreover, the obtained particular interaction energies between the Cyc and the surrounding residues in the binding pocket indicated that Asn108 of mutant enzyme was the cause of Cyc resistance by producing steric clash with p-Cl of Cyc. Consequently, comparing the energy contributions with the potent flexible WR99210 inhibitor, it was found that the key mutant residue, Asn108, demonstrates attractive interaction with this inhibitor and some residues, Leu46, Ile112, Pro113, Phe116, and Leu119, seem to perform as second binding site with WR99210. Therefore, quantum chemical calculations can be useful for investigating residue interactions to clarify the cause of drug resistance.

CQ Gallery: Chanel Haute Couture Spring/Summer '09, Paris
If you ask Karl Lagerfeld, white is definitely the new black. His couture catwalk for Chanel was awash with a whiter shade of pale yesterday, as couturiers battle to keep this art form alive. Wool skirts atop with box jackets gave the Chanel skirt suit a new identity, while oversized origami headdresses provided the necessary OTT (Over The Top) element. Inspired by the blank page, Lagerfeld's delicately cut designs often flashed with black in beads on bolero jackets and shiny waist belts.

Wiki Headlines
18th Nov: We've switched servers and will be updating the old code over the next couple months, meaning that several things might break. Please report issues here.
only oldest adult among a group of children teenagers or younger adults
Jade Curtiss: "And my other goal is to make you youngsters go crazy before I reach 40. "'A story that centers around a group made up of children, teenagers, or just younger adults, introduces an older character who decides he wants to join the youngsters. He's the oldest, character in the group. That's the Token Adult In adventure stories especially in video games or RolePlayingGameVerses the group is often made up of children or teenagers with one "adult" exclusively allied to them. His age could be anywhere from being old enough to drink (if the other group members are just kids) to someone who is middle aged or over 50. Also sometimes TV shows will have older characters help the heroes once per episode, or for only one episode. In stories directed at older audiences, where it's more common for this character to be the elder to a group of younger adults, a Cool Old Guy or The Mentor can fill this role when his Competence Zone is shifted upward compared to the rest of the group. This can be done by making the youngsters New Meat, ManChildren, or BunnyEarsLawyers. Take note, that the rest of the group don't necessarily need to be "adults" to count, they just have to be noticeably younger than the Token Adult. Also occasionally the Token Adult will stick out in a group of adults because he's a Bunny-Ears Lawyer. See Si from Duck Dynasty in the examples. He may be a stranger that joins because he happens to have the same or a similar goal as the heroes. Or an experienced veteran who joins the group. Could also be intended as an aversion, or subversion to There Are No Adults by the author, by making the character a substitute parent that acts as the team's guardian in their parent's absence. He may even literally be a trusted friend or relative of one of the team member's parents, or a team member's teacher. Often times he's also The Mentor, or just a wiser grownup in non-action works who guides the characters in the right direction, or Mr. Exposition, who, because he's older and more experienced, explains how the world works. Tends to be The Big Guy, because he's older, taller, and stronger, at least in the beginning. Or the Smart Guy. If he's a Bad Ass most of the time he's a Cool Old Guy or a Badass Elder, but he could be a Colonel Bad Ass or The Captain depending on the setting, or a Bad Ass Bookworm. If he was The Leader of the team at one point, but isn't The Hero, he's probably the Big Good. If he's The Foil to the The Hero he might end up becoming The Lancer. If played for comedic effect, he might be a Dead Pan Snarker who employs Insult humor on his younger peers. He could also be One of the Kids, might be a Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass, or if Adults really are useless he may be used by the author to drive that point home. If employed to the Token Adult because of job politics the group may have been Reassigned to Antarctica. Sometimes, he starts out as their adult in the beginning of the story, and more older characters are included in the group later, in which case, the original character who took up the role still counts. Other stories have the Token Adult separated from the group, and replaced by another older character. In that case both characters count. If hurting his friends is his Berserk Button, expect him to be the Papa Wolf or the Mama Bear. Contrast, Tagalong Kid, this trope's opposite. Compare The Chick, The Obi-Wan, Adults Are Useless, There Are No Adults.

Muhammad Haikal , Haron (2008) Finite element analysis of automotive intake manifold using CAE software. Undergraduate Project Report(PSM) thesis, Universiti Malaysia Pahang.
This project focused on simulation testing of automotive intake manifold design using Computer Aided Engineering software. Finite element Random Vibration analysis is conducted on Proton WAJA 1.6 intake manifolds designs for material cast aluminium alloy AlSi12 and glass-fibred polyamide PA6 GF30. The purpose of this project is to study the computational maximum stress on the model due to the effect of engine vibrations and pressure pulsation loads. The input data of vibrations and pressure pulsation loads are taken from previous studies. The softwares used are SOLIDWORK 2005 and ALGOR V16. Base on the simulation results obtained, the maximum stress of both materials are compared to distinguish which is better in resisting the vibration loads applied.

SHREVEPORT, La. (AP) - St. Mark's Episcopal Cathedral will hold a memorial service Saturday for Chief Petty Officer Robert Reeves - one of two Navy SEALs from Shreveport killed when their helicopter was ambushed in Afghanistan.
Cathedral spokeswoman Bess Maxwell tells The Times that Reeves had said he wanted to be buried at sea, and that burial will take place later.
Maxwell says 33-year-old Lt. Cmdr Jonas Kelsall will probably be buried at Arlington National Cemetery in Virginia. His family now lives in California.
The two were friends from childhood and classmates at Caddo Magnet High School. They were among 38 people killed when the helicopter was shot down Saturday.
The governor's office says the service will include the head of the Louisiana National Guard and representatives of the state Department of Veterans Affairs. A spokesman said Gov. Bobby Jindal, who has ordered state and U.S. flags lowered to half-staff statewide until sunset Sunday, was unable to clear his schedule to attend.
Jindal's initial order had the flags at half-staff through sunset Friday. He extended the tribute on Wednesday at the request of Reeves' family, said Kyle Plotkin, Jindal's spokesman.

Vacation days consist of relaxing, kicking back and doing anything that isn't work related, right? Well, unfortunately that is not the case for everyone. According to a recent Today.com article, more than half of the U.S. working population ends up doing the exact opposite of relaxing and works during their vacation time, planned or not.
A poll taken by TeamViewer was recently released showing that 52 percent surveyed will be working on vacation, which is up six percent from last year's statistic. According to the survey, results also showed the interesting break down below for what people will do during their vacation time for work:
- 30 percent will read work-related emails
- 23 percent will receive work-related phone calls
- 19 percent will want access to a document on their home computer
- 18 percent will receive work-related text messages
- 13 percent want access to a document on their work computer
- 13 percent will be asked to do work by a boss, client or colleague
At the time, checking that simple email or picking up that incoming call can seem harmless, but the article states that this can have a negative effect on your future job performance. Susan Steinbrecher, a business consultant and author of "KENSHO: A Modern Awakening, Instigating Change in an Era of Global Renewal" says that "rest and renewal ultimately increase our ability to be productive, it is essential to completely unplug when on vacation".
This wasn't news to me when I first read it, as I am one of the guilty who checks emails during time off (I just did it last Tuesday). Here at March, and in the PR world in general, it is hard to completely tune out of the ever changing day-to-day PR life, as crises can arise and constant communication is key. This doesn't ring true for all of the U.S. working population, as some people know how to tune out and stay away from work for their time allotted. So, do you relax on vacation and forget about work, or are you part of the percentage above who likes to know what is going on?

I'm with you, Becca! I check email on all days off because the thought of coming in to a full inbox is daunting and I don't want to spend all morning going through them.
I do think it's important to recharge, but how do we do that? Deactivating email on the phone is an option but one I would never consider!Liz SwentonJuly 20, 2012

Horses In The Room Lyrics - Everything But The Girl
and who is this man standing at my door?
is he lying or is he true?
is this how I see you?
like a rolling pebble on the deepest ocean floor
life has rubbed me smooth.
but you cup me in your hands
and you roll me in your pocket.
how many men, unhappy, crammed inside their skin,
wordless to explain, stand at someone's door?
Am I too old for this?
is there kindness in his face?
a good man or a weak man?
there are horses in the room pulling me through fences
I throw the window open
and the light hits the pavement.
come in, come in, whoever you are.
I will know you, if only from afar.
once I saw a dry dock
and the rustling hulks of ships and trawlers
with a wind that could cut steel
it was so cold.
and I don't have to think that hard
and it all comes flooding back.
there is so much that neither of us will ever know.
come in, come in, whoever you are.
I will know you, if only from afar.

College of Business
Dr. Robert Reid, Dean
Dr. Philip B. DuBose, Associate Dean, Academic Affairs
Kimberley A. Foreman, Associate Dean, Human Resources and Administration
Joyce Guthrie, Associate Dean, Student Services
Dr. Bradley M. Roof, Associate Dean, External Relations
Mission Statement
The College of Business is committed to preparing students to be active and engaged citizens who are exceptionally well qualified leaders for success in a global competitive marketplace.
Shared Values and Goals
The College of Business offers baccalaureate degree programs with the following nine academic majors: accounting, computer information systems, economics, finance, hospitality and tourism management, international business, management, marketing, and quantitative finance. Each of the baccalaureate degree programs leading to the B.B.A. degree has essentially the same general structure:
Graduate-level programs offered by the college lead to the M.B.A. degree or the M.S.A. degree. All academic degree programs offered by the College of Business are accredited by AACSB International - The Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business.
Admission to the College of Business
A student desiring to major in any B.B.A. program in the College of Business must formally apply for admission to the College. The application may be submitted upon completion of 45 credit hours and must meet the official calendar deadline announced by the CoB Academic Services Center each year for fall, spring, or summer admission. Applications received after the deadline for each application period (i.e., fall, spring, or summer) will not be considered. Late applicants will be required to resubmit their application prior to the next deadline.
Admission to the College of Business is competitive. At a minimum, a student must have completed 56 credit hours, earned a cumulative grade point average of 2.500 (rounding is not used) in all courses taken at JMU, and must have completed all 100- and 200-level B.B.A. core courses (described below) and their prerequisites. Meeting these minimum requirements, however, does not guarantee admission.
Final admission decisions are based upon resources. The total number of students admitted will be no greater than can be effectively supported with available instructional resources.
Admission permits a student to enroll in COB 300 and to be formally admitted to a major. However, some majors in the College of Business may impose standards that exceed those of the College as a whole. A student must meet both the College of Business requirements and the requirements of the major in which he or she seeks to enroll.
The above requirements do not pertain to students who are enrolled in the B.A. or B.S. in economics program or to those enrolled in the B.S. in quantitative finance program.
Lower-level B.B.A. Requirements
During their freshman and sophomore years, business majors concentrate on building an academic foundation upon which they will base more in-depth junior-year studies. This foundation includes both lower-division B.B.A. core requirements and the major part of the university general education program.
B.B.A. Core
B.B.A. majors must complete all 100- and 200-level core requirements and meet all of the criteria under "Admission to the College of Business" to be eligible for junior-level business course work. Consequently, class schedules for the four-semester sequence covering the freshman and sophomore years must be planned accordingly.
The following lower-division courses must be completed prior to enrolling in 300-level courses:
Upper-Level B.B.A. Requirements
Upper-division core courses required of all B.B.A. majors may not be taken until all lower-division B.B.A. core courses have been completed and the student has been admitted to the College of Business. The upper-division courses are the following:
* Students must take all four COB 300 courses during the same semester.
** COB 487 must be taekn during the senior year.
Non-Business Electives
The B.B.A. degree requires a minimum of 120 credit hours of undergraduate course work. Fifty percent of this work, 60 credit hours, must be taken outside of the College of Business. In counting the 60 credit hours of non-business courses, B.B.A. students may include all hours taken in general education (usually 41), up to a total of nine hours in Economics (note that GECON courses must be counted as Economics) and three hours of COB 191. The remaining hours, to bring the total to 60, must be taken from any department outside the College of Business. Students should carefully select these non-business electives to help them gain additional knowledge and expertise for their careers and personal lives.
Declaration of a Business Major or Minor
JMU students seeking to change their current major to one in the College of Business must be in "good standing," meaning they must have a cumulative grade point average of 2.0 or higher on the date they submit a "Change or Declaration of Major" form. This policy affects students desiring to change their major to one of the following: accounting, computer information systems, economics (B.B.A. degree only), finance, hospitality and tourism management, international business, management, and marketing. This policy also applies to non-College of Business students desiring to declare one of the following minors: computer information systems, economics, management science and retail merchandising. The policy does not apply to freshmen or transfer students during their first semester at JMU.
This policy does not supersede the 2.500 cumulative grade point average stipulated for enrollment in COB 300 or junior-level courses in College of Business major programs, nor does it supersede admission requirements for specific academic programs in the College of Business.
Business as a Second Major
A student enrolled in any JMU degree program other than the B.B.A. program who wishes to select a B.B.A. major field (i.e., accounting, computer information systems, economics, finance, hospitality and tourism management, international business, management, or marketing) as a second major must complete the following courses:
1. All B.B.A. core courses, as shown above; and
2. All requirements specific to the major selected.
Transfer Credit Policy
AACSB International-accredited colleges of business generally allow only a limited amount of business course work prior to the junior year. Because of that restriction, accredited colleges are required to detail a process for accepting transfer courses. To meet that requirement, the JMU College of Business has established the following transfer credit policy: The College of Business normally does not award transfer credit for courses that were taken at the 100- or 200-level if those courses are offered at the 300- or 400-level at JMU. If a transfer student wishes to receive credit for such a course, the following steps must be taken:
1. The student must present the course syllabus and appropriate course materials to the director of the relevant academic program in the JMU College of Business.
2. The program director must determine that the course covers material similar to that covered at JMU. If the material is not deemed sufficiently similar, then the student must take the course at JMU. This decision is final and may not be appealed.
3. If the material is considered sufficiently similar, the student may take a comprehensive examination covering the JMU course material and must pass it with at least a grade of 70 percent, or the student may choose to complete the course itself.
4. If the student passes the comprehensive examination, the program director will report that result to the College of Business Academic Services Center, which will prepare a course substitution form.
Additionally, each program in the College of Business will accept no more than two courses for transfer credit toward the major. The major is defined as the course work required by a major field of study in addition to the lower- and upper-level B.B.A. core courses. For a course to be considered for acceptance in the student's major, it must have been completed in an AACSB International-accredited business program at a four-year university. Certain majors within the College of Business may have more restrictive policies on transfer credit. Those policies are explained in the following sections devoted to the individual majors.
The JMU College of Business prescribes that at least fifty percent of the business credit hours required for the B.B.A. degree be earned at JMU. Specifically, this statement means that no fewer than 28 of the required credit hours in the College of Business be completed at JMU. Required credit hours include the B.B.A. Core and the courses required for the major. The following B.B.A. core courses do not count toward meeting this requirement: COB 191, ECON 201, and GECON 200.
Individual programs in the College of Business may have transfer credit limitations in addition to this overall requirement. Please refer to the specific academic major following this section.
Internships for Business Majors
Students with majors in the College of Business are encouraged to participate in at least one formal business internship prior to graduation. Most commonly, students serve as interns in business organizations during the summer between their junior and senior years, but internships are not restricted to that period of time.
In some cases, students may receive academic credit for internships. In such cases, the maximum amount of credit that may be obtained is three credit hours. The minimum requirements for such academic credit are the following:
Some majors in the College of Business may have higher requirements than these minimum standards.
Computer Competency Requirements
All students majoring in the College of Business must be able to use current information technology tools and demonstrate the ability to learn new tools as part of their preparation for the professional world. Many business courses help students develop basic information technology skills in such areas as spreadsheet analysis, database management, presentation software and Web page development. However, course work alone cannot provide students with the level of proficiency needed by employers and graduate schools.
Consequently, students must take personal responsibility for developing their skills beyond the basics taught in various classes.
To facilitate student progress, the College of Business requires every business major to have continuing access to two resources: a book on using the Microsoft Excel spreadsheet and a book on using the Microsoft Access database. Students are expected to acquire these books as sophomores and use them throughout their programs of study.
Personal Computers
Many courses in the JMU business curriculum make extensive use of computers and software. Students are given hands-on experience in using computer technology to solve complex business problems.
Computer labs are conveniently located in several academic buildings and residence halls. These labs are intended for quick, short-term use by students as an adjunct to their class time. Relying solely on the labs for lengthy or complex assignments, however, is unrealistic; therefore, students should make arrangements to have their own personal computers outside the university-provided labs.
Since computers are essential in today's business environment, students with majors in the College of Business are strongly encouraged to purchase their own personal computers. Computers are available at discount prices from the university bookstore; however, computers meeting the recommended configuration may be purchased from many retail and mail-order sources. Various vendors also provide rental and leasing programs.

Without You Lyrics - Mariah Carey
Review The Song (18)
No, I can't forget this evening,
Or your face as you were leaving,
But I guess that's just the way the story goes,
You always smile, but in your eyes your sorrow shows,
Yes, it shows,
No, I can't forget tomorrow,
When I think of all my sorrow,
When I had you there,
But then I let you go,
And now it's only fair that I should let you know,
What you should know,
I can't live,
If living is without you,
I can't live,
I can't give anymore,
I can't live,
If living is without you,
I can't give,
I can't give anymore,
Well, I can't forget this evening,
Or your face as you were leaving,
But I guess that's just the way the story goes,
You always smile, but in your eyes your sorrow shows,
Yes, it shows,
I can't live,
If living is without you,
I can't live,
I can't give anymore,
I can't live,
If living is without you,
I can't live,
I can't give anymore,
No, I can't live,
No, I can't live,
No, no, no, no, I,
I can't live (no, I can't live),
If living is without you (no, I can't live),
I can't live,
I can't give anymore,
Can't live (no, I can't live),
No, I can't live.

A fun fact about this song. | Reviewer: Brittany | 1/9/11
This really is a great song, and Mariah sings it well. However, she didn't actually write it. The original lyrics were written by Pete Ham/Tom Evans and was also performed by Harry Nilsson. Yes, she took the song and did wonders with it by making it her own. And no, I'm not trying to hate on or judge, I just thought I'd let you all know. So, with that being said, Good job Mariah Carey we love this song and how you perform it!
i can't without u..=( | Reviewer: cat01 | 4/25/09
i love this song... and hate it because I don't think its a good idea for me to listen to this song and cry inside for my lost love... and i dont know if he'll return but damn i still hoping...=( I love u so much please come back...
So Sad... | Reviewer: Tempest | 9/10/08
This is an awefully beautiful song. I just heard it on FM, and couldn't help but search for its lyrics.. Read it, found it touching. I just love it, but I don't think its a good idea to listen to this wonderful song and cry inside for lost love. Still, its awefully beautiful.
"If a certain Somebody who calls herself Ayashan gets to read this, I really think she should think about Xero.. Girl, I really think you two should be together, regardless of what happened in the past.. He doesn't agree with me, but after all these years with him, I know him like my own shadow. He lives by will, he's already dead inside. You can revive him.. Please..."
super song!!! | Reviewer: brILiAnCy | 3/1/08
this is such a good song,mariah has wonderful songs and she really can sing very good! I'm from Bulgaria and we now have "Music idol 2". One of the singers in furst round singed this song. She was from a village and the text had nothing to do with the original! The adjudicators asked on what language is she singing! Actually I though that she was singing...I don't know on what language!! Do you know what she was singing? The words I can't forget are: I can't live Li-bu-live without you.. That was SO funny!!! The other words were terrible too but this is just unbeliefble!! :)
Song of my Life | Reviewer: Autumn Starr | 12/25/07
This song perfectly sums up just how i feel for my best friend at the moment... we did go out but then it ended... and even after four months i still love this person so very much... but now best friend is with someone else. I still love you, hun...
This song is just so beautiful and touches your soul. A breathtaking song.
Nilsson | Reviewer: Tanguy | 11/27/07
I think it's sad that people tend to forget that Harry Nilsson recorded this song a long time before Maria Carey did and that no one has ever made a better version than he did.

David Cook: Driving while American
I am not brown skinned. I did not require another officer to translate. Aside from that, my story is identical. It happened 10 months ago in another state. I am still waiting for the urinalysis results to clear my case. Thats right, 10 months, 3 postponments, attorney fees, missed work, plane tickets...oh, and my breathalyzer, also a ZERO. I have faith that this will work out, but at what cost? I am a white, college educated, heterosexual, christian man. Maybe my crime was having a Tennessee drivers license. I understand Mr. Molina feeling like a piece of trash when he was finally released from jail. I'm just saying it doesnt only happen to minorities.

Top Republican Consultant in Favor of Not Being in Favor of Sanctity of Marriage
Steve Schmidt — former aide to George W. Bush and campaign adviser to John McCain — has recently come out of the closet in favor of gay marriage…
Today, Mr. Schmidt, who also served as a top Bush aide, discusses the subject with the Log Cabin Republicans, a group that supports gay rights. According to CNN, he will call on conservative Republicans to drop their opposition at a lunchtime speech in Washington.
Mr. Schmidt, who has a sister who is a lesbian, plans to say that there is nothing about gay marriage that is un-American or that threatens the rights of others and that in fact it is in line with conservative principles.
"There is a sound conservative argument to be made for same-sex marriage," Mr. Schmidt plans to say, according to speech excerpts obtained by CNN. "I believe conservatives, more than liberals, insist that rights come with responsibilities. No other exercise of one's liberty comes with greater responsibilities than marriage."
Conservatives in favor of equal rights for gays? Heavens to mercy!
Whatever would Barry Goldwater say?
