I worked for Cydcore its a multi level marketing scam, a real big one. 

I used to work for a large hotel/casino in the audit department. About a year before I started working there, a dealer was arrested for palming a $100 chip every shift for several years. The pit boss, surveillance, and accounting all failed to notice. Her theft was discovered when she tried to buy a very nice house…

People knew that the rich bought their way into the elite schools; I think the shock is the use of a middleman, elaborate cheating schemes, and bribing what is effectively the “middle-management” at the colleges rather than just paying for a new library. After all, Yale could use an international airport.

I worked a job where we idled away the hours sometimes thinking about how we could steal and not get caught. Our plans were elaborate.

I feel terrible for the guy...he pushed through both a hip injury and the loss of his sister to give Boston everything he had, and instead of rewarding that dedication...they shipped his ass to Cleveland.

Now the only Brinks truck that’d be backing up for him would be one used to carry his metaphorical corpse away…

I think it’s clear in the indictments that at least some of the kids didn’t know, since there are records of communications where parents are desperately trying to keep their kids from finding out.

I had some idiot arguing with me in the comments of another article that if the kids didn’t know of the malfeasance, that they have entered into a contract with the school and can’t just be expelled, and besides there is no evidence that the kids wouldn’t have gotten in on their own merits anyway.

Getting into to college is harder than staying in college.  Especially places like USC.

I’m surprised the dullard kids didn’t all flunk out after they got admitted. Since they weren’t real athletes, they weren’t getting any help from the AD with tutors or cushy classes. These were kids who pissed away the benefits of wealth and failed to get into USD on their own. They weren’t going to magically start…

At this point, I couldn’t care less who the parents are. I want to see these kids kicked out of their respective schools, revocation of credits “earned”, and (in the case of public universities) see them banned for life from attending the entire state school network.

Piecing together all reports I’ve seen on the Steelers offer last summer, I believe Leveon would have received:

He’s plenty smart.  Just not very wise.  

“I want to make this perfectly clear: I never bribed anyone. I merely accepted bribes. Repeatedly.”

His test-taking ability doesn’t make him “smart,” any more or less than my mechanic’s ability to change a timing belt makes him “smart.” And since my mechanic is not going to prison soon, I’d say he’s much smarter. The smart ones aren’t the ones who go to Harvard; the smart ones are the ones who run Harvard and…

It’s really not funny. I’m thinking of all of the really hard working students, students who put in the time, got great grades, and whose parents don’t have hundreds of thousands to bribe their way in.

That Buckingham kid’s writing is awful. At least his mother realizes she’s got a dotard though:

“I know this is craziness, I know it is. And then I need you to get him into USC, and then I need you to cure cancer and [make peace] in the Middle East.” 

But if they can pull the last one off, they’re smarter than Jared…

On the other hand, I have a modicum of integrity.

Oh, cool! I live near IMG and had good SAT scores. Maybe there’s an opening?

Ohhh, this is going to get better! The person who either took the SAT/ACT in their place or replaced their answers with his own was Mark Riddell, who appears to be the “Director of College Entrance Exam Preparation (SAT & ACT)“ at IMG Academy. His bio has already been scrubbed from the website but one of his…
