Starting with the fall 2010 semester, students everywhere will be able to earn a Master of Business Administration degree through Frostburg State University, now that the full, AACSB-accredited program has been made available through online classes.

For many years now, MBA students, like other FSU students, have been able to take some of the classes toward their degree fully online or in a blended format, which is partially online and partially in a traditional classroom. The final steps toward offering the entire MBA program online were taken this past spring.

"Due to recent changes in and complexity of the global environment, the economic, educational and social aspects of people's lives have become increasingly demanding," said Dr. Ahmad Tootoonchi, dean of the FSU College of Business. "Our online MBA program provides students with accessibility, affordability and flexibility, so they can deal with various life demands more effectively."

Carpenters In The Forehead/   Warlords, Inc.  Part 2

Below find continued excerpts from the Congressional Report of John Tierney, entitled, “Warlord, Inc.: Extortion and Corruption Along the U.S. Supply Chain in Afghanistan:”

"The U.S. operation in Afghanistan has presented the U.S. military with the most complex logistical operation it has ever undertaken. By September 2010, under President Barack Obama’s plan to increase troop strength, the United States will have 100,000 troops in Afghanistan, with an additional 38,000 allied forces under NATO command. Military logistics officers are responsible for providing the troops with the food, water, shelter, weapons, ammunition, and fuel they need to perform their duties."

FRIDAY AFTER FIVE ONE ACT SERIES CANCELED THIS WEEK- SHOW RESCHEDULED FOR NEXT FRIDAY.......
On July 23 at 7 p.m. and  7:30 p.m., Front & Centre Stage presents a live performance of  "One Naked Woman and One Fully Clothed Man" by Diana Amsterdam as part of the "Friday After Five One Act Series" at the Allegany Arts Council's Community Room, 9 N. Centre St., Cumberland. The play centers on a married couple watching a movie.

We are treated to the wife's interior monologue as she watches what she thought was going to be a nice romance but turns out to have too much nudity and sex for her taste. She becomes obsessed with the fact that her husband's prurient interests are aroused. She is convinced that he doesn't want her, that he wishes his wife looked like the figure up there on the screen, and that the sparkle has gone out of her marriage.

Free admission. Please note that the show contains some strong language and adult content and may not be suitable for children under 17 years of ages. Parental discretion is advised. Please call Front & Centre Stage at 301-268-3724 or the Arts Council at 301-777-ARTS (2787) for more information.
