The ruling, announced to active members in a letter from the fraternity’s General President Herman “Skip” Mason Jr., comes nearly a month after a member of the student chapter at Fort Valley State University was charged with aggravated battery against a new member. Mason said the decision to halt intake was due to “the failure of some of our members to behave honorably and with care.”
Here’s an excerpt from the letter Mason sent out explaining the decision:
“Following my review of 2009, it became clear to me that one area that needs our immediate focus is the conduct of brothers involved in the intake process. Our current process was designed with the assumption that our members would conduct themselves honorably and with care. Regretfully, in several instances, that has not occurred. The failure of some of our members to behave honorably and with care has exposed the fraternity again to unprecedented risks of loss. Our organization should not, and will not, await the occurrence of a catastrophic loss before it acts to rein in those who engage in risky behavior, behavior that at times they illegally associate with our intake process and the fraternity in general. I believe Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc. must not conduct a new cycle of membership intake until it can correct and eliminate the problem of some brothers violating our strict rules against hazing. This means that ALL MEMBERSHIP INTAKE ACTIVITIES SHALL BE AND ARE HEREBY SUSPENDED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE. Any member, chapter or officer found in violation of this membership-intake suspension order will be disciplined up to and including expulsion from the fraternity.
damn this shit is crazy! watchuthink?

I may be late with this photoshoot Nicki Minaj had with Complex, but a post is a post & Minaj looks good as hell during this shoot. Now she said 2010 would be her year and if you heard the song, Lil' Freak, she got with Usher [below this post] idk -- she may be right. Anywho here are the pictures from the shoot with complex.

Edward Dalton is a researcher in the year 2019, in which an unknown plague has transformed the world's population into vampires. Personally I think this is a good movie to start 2010 off with. Don't bootleg this || go to the movies and support this film.

A re-imagining of the horror icon Freddy Krueger, a serial-killer who wields a glove with four blades embedded in the fingers and kills people in their dreams, resulting in their real death in reality. Personally, I've been waiting for productions to come out with another Freddy Krueger film! It's been a long time coming. They came out with the Michael Myers same ole' bullshit, so I can't wait for this movie to hit the theaters. May 30, 2010 save the date!
All I can say is talent definitely runs through the Simmons family. When I was on twitter the other day, I ran across the official Diggy Simmons page, and visited his page almost a half-hour before he released his mixtape, The First Flight. I immediately followed his provided link to get my copy, because I wanted to see what he had to offer, and prayed that it was something better then what his older brother, JoJo, had to offer. Damn did Diggy have me stunned! For a 15 year old, his flow is crazy and his lyrics was on point, for a kid his age. Everything about this mixtape screamed success! His beats were crazy and the song he did with Karina Pasian, was one of the best duet songs out before the end of the 09 year. I give his mixtape a perfect 10/10. Keep up the work Dig. & if you wanna follow his twitter it's @diggy_simmons
If you don't remember who this beautiful woman is; this is Risky, from the first Real Chance of Love, aired on VH1, & winner of VH1's Charm School Season 3. Real name, Ebony Jones, shows us what true beauty looks like in rollers during this photoshoot with J'Adore Magazine. All I can say is effortless beauty.
Said to be “the original urban supermodel,” Melyssa Savannah Ford is one of the most recognized brand names of the urban modeling industry. From video girl, to co-hosting BET specials, to modeling for Applebottom, Melyssa Ford has almost done it all. In an interview with J'Adore Magazine, Ford says, “I take the shininess off of the business. Everything has changed,” Ford clarifies, further emphasizing that the industry is now “oversaturated with too many girls wanting to do the same thing,” which make the opportunities for success “really slim to none.” Ford goes into details with her experiences being a video girl on and off the camera. With the many misconceptions thrown Ford's way, she clears the air during this interview explaining her position and how she really felt about the things that were going on. “I take the shininess off of the business. Everything has changed,” Ford clarifies, further emphasizing that the industry is now “oversaturated with too many girls wanting to do the same thing,” which make the opportunities for success “really slim to none.”
There was so much to this interview, but the most powerful piece ILLegal Xpressions could quote was: Despite the negativity, Ford, an advocate helping others, seeks to help fellow women of color come into their own and has recently taken further steps to jumpstart her non-profit, LESS is More. LESS, an acronym for Literacy through Education, Etiquette through Example, Strength through Perseverance, and Self through Confidence, was conjured up in a dream. “LESS is More is something I’m placing a lot of effort toward,” Ford articulates with a subtle rise of enthusiasm in her tone as she explains the significance of the foundation. “Female empowerment is a passion of mine and something we need more of.”

Britney started off the decade on top of the world. Her sophomore album Oops I Did It Again, sold over a million copies in its first week of release in 2000. After a break up with Justin Timberlake and a two-day marriage to a childhood friend in Vegas, things came crashing down for the pop queen. Within the last two years, the once-innocent teen queen has been divorced, lost custody of her children, and been placed in involuntary psychiatric hold twice. While some say the star has made her comeback with her successful 'Circus' tour and a new man by her side, the image of the star shaving her head is a hard one to forget. ILLegal Xpressions decided to analyze the changes in music videos Britney Spears has gone through. From production to wardrobe.
So my homie told me about this website where they have all these positions you can do with your snuggie. I didn't believe him, so I googled it & what do you know, they really do have a fucking website with positions when fucking with your snuggie. I've included some photos, along with the names lol. This is hilarious.
The Night In -----------------
She puts her arms through the sleeves and reads. She’s minding her own business. He is also minding her business.
The Cuddly Puppy --------------------------
The man wears the Snuggie on his front and covers her. She feels warm and cozy like Grandma’s house, but still knows who her daddy is.
The Tablecloth ---------------------
She lies on the table. He wears the Snuggie on his front while the bottom end covers her. It’s just not a holiday without stuffing.
The Superwoman -------------------------
She wears the Snuggie on her back. He holds the other end in his teeth. You are super if you can hold yourself up and keep him quiet at the same time.
