The name Richard itself is derived from the Old German Ricard, a compound of the elements ric (power), and hard (hardy, brave, strong). It was found occasionally in pre-Conquest Britain as Ricehard, but Burke's Landed Gentry asserts that the surname Prichard was first recorded in Llanover (now Pwllywrach), Glamorgan County, in South Wales, where the family was seated from very ancient times, before the Norman Invasion and the arrival of Duke William at Hastings in 1066 A.D. An early Coat of Arms, shown at left, is Ermine (silver or white) with a black lion rampant. Another black lion is featured in the Crest. The Family Motto, "Labore et fide," translates as, "With labor and faith"and the Prichards have displayed both qualities in abundance over the centuries. The first recorded spelling of the family name is shown to be that of David Aprycharde, which was dated 1521, in the "Oxford University Register", during the reign of King Henry VIII. Notable bearers of the name include: Sir William Pritchard, Lord Mayor of London, 1682; and Hannah Pritchard (1711 - 1768), actress, who played at Drury Lane, London, and was held to be the greatest Lady MacBeth of her day. The following family line begins before the name Prichardor any surnames, for that mattereven existed. Surnames became necessary when governments introduced personal taxation. In England this was known as Poll Tax. This way, the "ap Richard" couldn't point to the elder Richard's name on the list and claim he'd already paid his tax. Anyway, here is Wales' most famous Pritchard line (keep in mind this is just one line of sons, and it's unclear where or when our line broke away): Their son, CAWRDAF AP CARADOC, was Prince between Wye and Severnas was his son, GLOYW AP CAW. His son, HOYW AO HOYW, was also the Prince of Wye and Severn, and governed Fferregs about 640, AD. The line continued with CYNFARCH AP HOYW, who lived about 680 and was the Prince of Wye and Severnas was his son, CYNDEG AP CYNFARCH. TEITHWALCH AP CYNDEG inherited those principalities from his dad, and then assumed the government of Fferregs and Brecknock. His country was invaded by King Offa. Prince Teithwalch repulsed the invaders, however, as was the invasion of Fferegs by the Mercian Prince Ethelbald. His son, Prince TEGID AP TEITHWALCH lived about 780. And his son, TANGWYDD AP TEGID, was Prince of Brecon (Breconshire), Regulus of Radnor and Builth. During his rule, Wales suffered from incursions by Egbert, King of the West Saxons. ANARAWD AP TANGWYDD was Prince of Brecon and Regulus of Radnor and Builthas was his son, GWENDYDD AP ANARAWD, who lived about 860, AD. His son, GWENGY AP GWENDYDD, was Prince of Brecon, and reigned about 890 and 896. His eldest son, HYDD HWGAN AP GWENGY (Sir Huganus "of John de Cast"), was Prince of Brecon, but in 914 he was defeated by Ethelfreda, wife of Ethelfred, Earl of Mercia, and his castle of Brecenamere was taken by storm. The Prince and his troops rallied at Derby, but he was finally slain by Ethelfreda. His son, DRYFFYN AP HWGAN, was Prince of Brecon, and was one of the eight tributary princes known in English history for rowing King Edgar down the river Dee. He married the Princess CHRISLY AP MEYRIC AP EDWAL, and had at least two sons:
Rhys Goch and Joan had a son, CYHYLLEN VOEL AP RHYS, Lord of Ystradwy, living in 1056.
JENKYN AP HOWEL of Llanover Court married the daughter of GWILYM AP DAVID GWARIN, of Lanfoyst.
William was buried at Llanover, where his memorial brass is still shining over his tomb with the inscription, "Here lyeth the bodies of William Prichard, of Llanover, Esq., and of Matthew Prichard, of Llanover, Esq., his sonne and heire, lineally descended from the body of Cradock Vraiche Vras, Earle of Hereford, and Prince between Wye and Severne."
As you can see, the fortunes of the Prichards changed drastically. In 1730, Benjamin's son, WILLIAM PRICHARD (b. 1686), finally sold Goytre Manorthe only remaining part of the ancestral estate held by the Prichards at Llanoverto Charles Hanbury Williams, and went to reside at "The Hill," Trostrey, New Llanover. OUR PRITCHARD FAMILY
There are no records of David's baptism, meaning that his family was probably of a "nonconformist" denomination (most likely Congregationalists, which by 1851 was the major denomination in Breconshire). So at this point we can only guess at his origins. David may have had a brother, JOHN PRITCHARD (1791 - bef. 1851), who married a woman named MARGARET (1792 - Mar 1881), born in Abergwesyn, as well. Fortunately for us, the Pritchards did register for weddings, so we know today that banns were published at Llanddewi Abergwesyn for David to marry GWENLLIAN THOMAS (b. 1791) on March 19, 1824. (The publication of banns involved announcing aloud the intended marriage during the church service on three successive Sundays preceding the ceremony. The congregation was invited to register objections. Fortunately for us, there were no complaints.) Neither David or Gwen signed the wedding papers, but witnesses David Davies and John Thomas did.
Gwen was possibly the child of DAVID THOMAS and CATHERINE JONES, who were married at Llanddewi Abergwesyn on December 1, 1774. A Gwen Thomas was baptized there on 28 Mar 1790 to David Thomaswith no mother named. But David was listed as a parent with Catherine Jones for the baptisms of Ann Thomas on 4 Jun 1793, and Rees Thomas on 26 Mar 1797, so it's a good bet that she was Gwen's mom, too. The Thomas family was probably a "nonconformist," as well, because they didn't baptize any children in the parish church, either. "LLANDDEWI-ABERGWESSIN (LLANDDEWI-ABER-GWESYN), a parish, which comprises one of the wildest and least cultivated tracts in the county, derives its name from the dedication of its church, and from the little river Gwessin, near the confluence of which with the Irvon the village is situated. Llwynderw, or 'the oak grove,' is a handsome residence here. Lead-ore has been found, but it is not now worked. The roads are utterly impassable for carriages, and unsafe even for common carts. The living is annexed to the vicarage of Llangammarch; the church is a very rude building, dedicated to St. David" The '71' enumeration on the map reveals: Beulah was their post office; Ty clyd(2); Dolrannelpub per the heads occupation; Dolrannel fach(2); Aberannel Lodge. They lived in an individual house, as defined by a I in the inhabited column. Dol-Yr-Annel on the old map is highlighted in yellow, just above the end of the word Beulah. The people of the area would have nearly all been involved in working on the land in some way. For farm laborers and servants, ordinary life would not have changed much in the previous hundred years. They would almost certainly have been Welsh speakers, with little or no English in use. David worked as a farm laborer and quarryman in Breconshire (then called Brecknockeline), on the very land "Caradoc of the Brawny Arm" once ruled. A booming iron industry made this area one of the most heavily industrialized in the country in the late 1700s, with Merthyr Tydfil as the center. Coal mines and slate quarries were also plentiful. Over the next century, canals were dug from the mines and quarries to the rivers, and railroad lines were built from the mines to the seaports. Soon, Welsh minerals were being shipped all over the world. So even if there was little money in Wales, there was plenty of work. David and Gwen had six children somewhat late in life, beginning when David was 35 and Gwen about 30. Being nonconformist, their children weren't baptized in the parish church, but here's a listing of their children, with dates from other sources:
In 1933, the American Pritchards gathered for a family reunion, the only time such an event ever occured. John Jr. was living in San Francisco, and many of the other family members could barely afford the trip. The children of John posed proudly, below, with their families. John, who left his homeland behind and braved the Atlantic crossing to give his descendants a chance for a better future, and his father David, the poor quarryman from Wales, would have been proud (click here to enlarge): ¹Prichard is a "patronymic surname"which means that it's derived from a modification of the father's name. Usually this happens when someone affixes 'son' to a name, as in Williamson (William's son) or Johnson (John's son, get it?). In this way, the Normans took the Latin word for son, filius (which they spelled Fitz), and used it as a prefix in names like Fitz-Alan and Fitz-Gerald. Similarly, the Gaelic Mac (son) was used in names like MacAdam or MacAlister. The Welsh did the same thing, but their word for 'son' is spelled Map, which over time was shortened into the prefix Ap. Eventually the 'p' coalesced with the first letter of the name, the 'a' was dropped altogether, which created names like Price and, of course, Prichard (or as it finally became spelled in our family history, Pritchard), which therefore means "son of Richard." ²Welsh surnames are relatively few in number, but they have an inordinately large number of spelling variations. There are many factors that explain the preponderance of Welsh variants, but the earliest is found during the Middle Ages when Welsh surnames came into use. At this time, there were no uniform spelling rules and because the general population was illiterate, they could not specify a particular rendition of their names. Therefore, scribes and church officials recorded names as they sounded, which often resulted in a single person's name being inconsistently recorded over his lifetime. The transliteration of Welsh names into English also accounts for many of the spelling variations: the unique Brythonic Celtic language of the Welsh had many sounds the English language was incapable of accurately reproducing. It was also common for members of a same surname to change their names slightly, in order to signify a branch loyalty within the family, a religious adherence, or even patriotic affiliations. For all of these reasons, the many spelling variations of particular Welsh names are very important. Variations here include Pritchard, Prichard, Prickard, Prisiart, and many others. ³On 1 July 1837 a civil registration system for births, marriages and deaths was introduced in England and Wales. Registration was undertaken by civil registrars who reported to the Registrar General at the General Register Office (GRO) in London, now part of the Office for National Statistics (ONS). Copies of anyone's birth, marriage or death certificates can be obtained by the public. They are vital to family historians because of the genealogical information that they include." (Mark D. Herber, Ancestral Trails, Genealogical Publishing Company, Inc., 1998) Since the original birth, marriage and death registers are not open to the public, getting access to the information on one of these certificates is done by first searching the national birth, marriage and death indexes, that have been created by the GRO for this purpose. The indexes for the three events are each divided into quarterly volumes, with the names for each quarter listed alphabetically. Once an entry in one of the indexes is found, you are then able to use that information to order of copy of a death, marriage, or birth certificate from the GRO/ONS. Records in Wales show that a John Pritchard was married in "Brecknock" in 1854, between October and December (Vol. 11 B, Page 278).

Many economic indicators point to an eventual resurgence in the homeownership market: Interest rates remain at record lows; The Wall Street Journal reports that home values declined in all but five of the top 28 markets while rents continue to rise; and mortgage rates remain at their lowest levels in 60 years. With this seemingly perfect confluence of factors, why, then, are more people choosing to rent, rather than buy, a home?
"The problem is with access to credit," says Moody's Analytics' Chen. "Even though housing is affordable, lenders are tight in offering credit."
That difficulty in obtaining a home loan is hitting would-be first-time homeowners the worst. The NAR's Molony says that a recent study by his organization indicates that the median income of first-time buyers is $62,400, up from $59,000 in 2010. The average credit score jumped from 717 in 2007 to 760 in 2010. Now, it's at 755.
Buyers also need more for downpayments. After peaking at 80.4 percent in 2007 (its highest level since the early '90s), the loan-to-price ratio fell to 72.7 percent in early 2010 and ended the year just above 75 percent, according to data from the Federal Housing Finance Agency. This indicates that buyers are having to get a lot more money down to get their loans. And yet, first-time buyers dropped from 50 percent of the market in 2010 to 37 percent in 2011, according to the NAR—and that was largely due to the lack of availability of financing.
While no one is advocating a return of the wild days of the mid-2000s, many on the for-sale side point the finger at banks, saying now is the time to loosen up lending.
Molony says that home sales would rise 15 percent or 20 percent under normal underwriting conditions. "The banks are going to have to overcome the fear obstacle," he says. "They're sitting on a lot of cash. They need to get back into the business of lending."
The NAHB's Crowe assigns the government-sponsored enterprises (GSEs), Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, a lot of blame for the tight credit market.
"Fannie and Freddie have already returned mortgages to originators when they don't do something right," Crowe says. "The lenders are being very careful so they don't get the loan rejected by the GSEs."
Unfortunately, that seems to be the status quo for the next several years. Even if Congress privatizes Fannie and Freddie, it could raise borrowing costs, which would make homeownership difficult for an even longer period of time.
"The likely outcome is a form of federal backing depending on private markets," Crowe says. "To the extent that it's more private and less government, it will cost more."
Mike Fratantoni, vice president of research and economics at the Washington, D.C.–based Mortgage Bankers Association, says credit has eased a little in the jumbo loans (those over $625,500) area, but it has been extremely difficult to get a loan in that segment. Prime borrowers can get credit throughout the range of prices, but it's tougher for others. And Fratantoni doesn't see that changing anytime soon.
"You have to layer on top some new regulations, like risk retention and other issues that are part of Dodd-Frank [the Dodd–Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act]," Fratantoni says. "Those will probably pinch [the banks] in even tighter. I really don't see any scenario where credit gets much looser."
But the NMHC's Bibby thinks the powerful lobbies representing for-sale interests will eventually force open the lines of credit. And he disputes the perception that underwriting isn't "normal" nowadays.
"You're getting pressure from all of the groups that want to see a more vibrant housing market," he says. "They all feel the pendulum has swung too far the other way. In reality, underwriting basically has reverted to the norm, which may not be helpful in resuscitating the market."

Sheikh adds another asset to his portfolio
THIS time a year ago, it seemed like a spectacular stallion acquisition per week. Now it is major property purchases, with onlya slightly longer time span between them.
With the acquisition of Stonerside Stable, the powerful owner-breeder operation, from the McNairs of Texas, as revealed on Tuesday in later editions of the Racing Post and on racingpost.co.uk, Sheikh Mohammed adds a third major holding in as many countries in the span of six months.
In March, Darley, the sheikh's blood-stock arm, initiated the purchase of Woodlands Stud in Australia from Bob Ingham. The transaction included more than 11,000 acres and 1,000 horses, as well as a major training centre in Sydney.
Less than two weeks ago it became known that Darley was purchasing the historic Rothschild yard in Chantilly from Andre Fabre, with the intention of boosting its French stable above 100 horses next year.
And on Monday, Stonerside. The deal includes a 2,000-acre farm in Kentucky, a training centre in South Carolina, and 250 horses, among them this year's Ribblesdale Stakes winner Michita and Celebration Mile winner Raven's Pass, already 50 per cent owned by the sheikh after an agreement reached last autumn.
What is he up to? A good deal, it would seem, when you add this season's three major property acquisitions to the purchase of seven high-profile stallion prospects last year. However, the sheikh's intimates insist, as they did last summer, there is no change in policy.
Inthat case, we may have missed noticing an existing policy. The property and stallion acquisitions are not entirely new, and neither is the theme of global expansion.
Darley began selling horses at Japanese sales in 2002, and began seeking a Japan Racing Association licence at least five years ago, with the aim of vastly expanding its training and stallion base there. In the US, it retired Bernardini at the end of his champion three-year-old season in 2006, so the colt could enter stud with the highestprofile possible and a $100,000 fee.
"Hugely important" is the term John Ferguson, bloodstock adviser to the sheikh, has used regularly to describe what Japan, the US and Australia mean to Darley. But why?
In answer, the sheikh's advisers will say that he thoroughly enjoys racing in each of these countries. This is no doubt true, but he last went racing in Australia ten years ago, and was not at Saratoga to watch his Desert Party, a $2.1 million breeze-up buy, contest the Grade 1 Hopeful Stakes on Monday. And no wonder; he is a busy man.
'Enjoyment' may mean something different to him than it does to the average racegoer, and expansion comes naturally to the ruler of Dubai, as anyone who has visited the wealthy emirate will attest.
So in one senseit is no surprise that a man with thesheikh's financial means and global aims would enjoy racing through means of international expansion, especially when all his reach to far-flung regions raises the profile of Dubai. More to the point for those regionsinvested in may be what effect his actions will have on the racing and breeding industries.
Those selling yearlings and broodmares this year may wonder how much appetite he will have for buying new horses, having added 1,250 through the Stonerside and Woodlands purchases alone. And followers of his racing stable may wonder if and when, with the equine riches he has gained, Godolphin will rise again. You can bet that is part of the aim.
However, there is more to the expansion policy, whenever it began, than even success for Godolphin. Sheikh Mohammed has long been aware of the racing industry's weaknesses in its various jurisdictions - remember his Gimcrack speech of a decade ago? - and as long as he is involved in it, he will not leave it to rot.
Just consider how many races and events Darley sponsors, and how the Dubai racing carnival has opened up a whole new outlet for horses from all over the world during the winter.
The same goes for the breeding industry, and the intention is not entirely altruistic; with 81 stallions standing in six different countries, Darley needs a thriving bloodstock market from top to bottom. The purchase in April of Fasig-Tipton, North America's oldest thoroughbred auction house, by a Dubai-based associate of the sheikh, suggests that he is looking for more creative ways to support racing and breeding.
After all, oneman can only buy so much.

RTE to launch six new digital radio channels on trial
RTE to launch trial station on DAB.
We ask, are these services not going to co exist online? Whats the budget for these stations. What is the likelihood that they will exist beyond the trial.? where is the interactive dimension to this?
Will this trail go the way of RTE community radio and RTE local radio? I believe radio one needs an opt out service on digital but this could carry the MW/LW/Digital Europe feed. 2FM could do with a youthful current affairs opt out but a Classic Hits station RTE Gold, where is the need for that? Local radio can do this, sounds like an all day Late Date.. Digital Sport will be popular more UK & Irish horse racing needs coverage, I wanted to see more of this on the renewed LW service but alas its just a relay of FM for most of the week.

100 million iPods sold
Apple has sold its 100 millionth iPod, five years and five months since the music players first went on sale in November 2001. By comparison, it took Sony 14 years to sell 100m iPods Walkmans, of course. The now ubiquitous players have a 74% share of the MP3 player market in the US, but sales are lower outside the country with just a 50% share in Japan and 60% in Australia. The iTunes store has sold 2.5bn songs to date - a curiously low 25 songs per iPod. (Wall Street Journal via Guardian Organ Grinder)
radio 4 moves to the movies
Mr Lennon said the project aimed to invert the relationship between sound and vision and provide a "vision track" to the spoken material.
When it is broadcast, Radio 4 will have a red button service for digital TV transmission enabling viewers to see the visual material, the first time the station has shown a feature-style film to accompany spoken material.
"Radio is very excited about introducing visual material because of new technology," Mr Lennon said. "In Korea they are developing Eye River radio sets which can transmit images to accompany the sound and Radio 4 wants to be a part of this multiplatform revolution.

Peter Boyles reportedly out at KHOW after incident with producer
Update below: As we've noted, KHOW morning-drive staple Peter Boyles has been off the air since an incident involving longtime producer Greg Hollenback on May 23. Yesterday marked the beginning of the second full week without a Boyles appearance on the station, and sans an explanation about his future.
Now, we've got one. Boyles has reportedly been fired, and his absence is confirmed by a stripping of his image from the station's website. But we still lack details about what happened from Boyles himself.
Westword placed multiple calls to Boyles yesterday, as well as another one this morning. Thus far, we haven't received a response. When we do, we'll update.
In the meantime, however, 9News announced last night that Boyles is no longer with KHOW. Included is a quote from KHOW program director Dan Mandis, who confirmed that Clear Channel and Boyles have parted company.

We left a message for Mandis, too, and moments ago (update), he shared the brief official Clear Channel statement. It reads: "Peter Boyles is no longer with the company. The KHOW morning show will continue to provide quality news talk programming and serve our loyal listeners."
On the topic of a successor for Boyles, Mandis says, "We have fill-in hosts right now, and it will be fill-in-host du jour while the search begins." He adds, "This is important, and we're going to take our time. We have a lot of talented hosts here in this city and elsewhere. We'll keep looking until we find the right person."
It's appropriate that 9News would break this news, since station personnel were on hand when the happening that sealed Boyles's fate took place.
Peter Boyles and Tom Tancredo in the KHOW studio on what proved to be the host's last show for the station. |
About 8 a.m. on the 23rd, as we've reported, a TV crew was in the studio to witness former Congressman Tom Tancredo announce that he's running for governor when Boyles and producer Greg Hollenback got into a high-volume disagreement.
Afterward, Hollenback had red marks on his neck. Sources tell us they were caused by Boyles yanking the producer toward him by a lanyard. In response to this action, Hollenback is said to have thrown his hat at Boyles.
The program continued after that, but the dust-up was subsequently reported to KHOW management, with overseers from Clear Channel, the station's corporate owner, getting involved that same day. Since then, fill-in hosts -- most often the Independence Institute's Jon Caldara, whose evening KOA show was axed in a cost-cutting move circa January 2012 -- have been heard during Boyles's time slot. But the station didn't address the Boyles situation on the air.
This morning's program isn't devoted to Boyles, either. Moments ago, Caldara, who's behind the microphone again, was talking about U.S. Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia's blistering dissent in a DNA ruling, not the subject that's no doubt on many listener's minds.
KHOW's Facebook page has also avoided l'affaire Boyles. But plenty of listeners haven't.
Continue for more about Peter Boyles's reported ouster from KHOW.
Yesterday, KHOW updated its Facebook profile pic -- not the kind of action that usually attracts lotsa comments. But right now, more than forty people have weighed in at this spot about the Boyles canning. Some posts are of the good-riddance variety, including this one:
Birther radio could not sustain peter's rage. He was a tool for extreme right wing candidates while at the same time claiming to support gay rights and unions, he just couldn't put a happy face on swift boated birthers with a blue dress on. As a host he could not handle real debate from a progressive. His most common debate tactic when he was loosing would be to ask the caller to answer history questions. If they didn't he would hang up and declare victory.
baa baaa radio bye bye Pete...
But the following responses are more representative of the whole:
not sure what went on but mornings wont be the same with out peter not much else to listen to that is not boring or stupied
No more KHOW for me. Sorry Brownie, I will miss your show. Hope Pete comes back on the air somewhere else. Or maybe he will just ride, ski and enjoy his grandkid. I will miss him; we had a lot of views in common. I love the fact he just can't stand both parties which is exactly what I feel.
I'll be having "radio withdraws" in the morning. I guess Pete can hang that mistletoe now. I learned a lot from him, him being a reader and me being a listener. Love the history guest and the monetary guy. I didn't agree with Pete on everything, but if you did it means you can't think for yourself. And Pete wouldn't like that.
There is no excuse for what I understand about "the incident". That said, nobody but nobody told the truth more consistently about uncomfortable subjects than Pete did and I wish him nothing but the best and I look forward to hearing from him again very soon. As for KHOW, been good to know you but there really isn't any "there, there" anymore. What's the point in listening if I can't have my Imaginary Thanksgiving Parade, White Trash Christmas or interviews with professional wrasslers...
Now that you have removed the only talk show host in Denver that had passion about his beliefs, what are you gonna do for an encore? Might as well hire an idiot like Denise Spencer or maybe bring Sirota back, who knows he may last another few weeks. Clear Channel and KHOW has made a mistake with this move. I can't wait to see where Pete lands so that we can get back to business. I hope for our sake that he gets a huge raise with plenty of perks. I am also anxious to see how long it takes for the KHOW managers to get canned. You have lost a twenty plus year listener and I am sure most of the sponsors. I like Jon Caldara, as a substitute but he can not hold a candle to Mr. Boyles, he has already been missed.
Was Boyles let go because of what happened between him and Hollenback? Or were dollars and cents a big part of the picture? A lot of radio observers believe the latter played a role. From the beginning, they've been speculating that Clear Channel might seize on the Boyles-Hollenback matter to sack the veteran yakker.
Why? While Boyles was unquestionably the face of KHOW, and its biggest revenue generator, he was almost certainly the highest paid person on the payroll -- and the embattled corporation has been on a major cost-cutting mission. Last December, for instance, numerous Clear Channel employees were let go across the country in what became known euphemistically as "National Firing Day." In light of the tight times, the lanyard escapade might have struck bean counters as an opportunity for savings.
Whatever the case, Denver's most recognizable talk-show voice has been stilled for now, and given the current economics of broadcast radio, there aren't a lot of places for him to land. What will the future hold? Stay tuned.

Establishing a Chapter |
According to the Constitution and By-Laws of Pi Alpha Xi, "any four-year university or college offering baccalaureate instruction in horticulture is eligible to establish a chapter." Procedures for Establishing a Chapter The faculty member desiring to establish a chapter of Pi Alpha Xi at his/her university submits the following information electronically (PDF format preferred) to the National Secretary-Treasurer.
Upon receipt of the petition for a new chapter, the National Secretary-Treasurer will distribute the petition to the Board of Directors, composed of the three current national officers (President, Vice President, and National Secretary-Treasurer) along with the immediate past two presidents. Upon receipt of a majority affirmative vote from the Board of Directors the petition is submitted to the active chapters (those that are current on their chapter dues by January 31 in any given academic year). Upon affirmative vote by two-thirds of the active Pi Alpha Xi chapters, the President notifies the new chapter of its acceptance.
Upon approval to establish a new chapter, the President of Pi Alpha Xi National will proclaim a new chapter at your university. One of the current officers will work with you to confirm an installation date. As stated in the Constitution and By-Laws of Pi Alpha Xi, "Such petitioning group covers the expense of the National President or other officer to attend the chapter installation and, at the time of installation, deposits with the Executive Secretary the regular initiation fee for each of the members. The chapter is exempt from further payment of dues for the remainder of the academic year, except for members initiated after the installation of the chapter." It is also customary that one of the national officers attends and performs the Pi Alpha Xi Installation Ceremony. New chapters are named using the Greek alphabet. Naming convention dictates the chapters be named Alpha through Omega with a single letter designation. Beginning with the 25th chapter, double letter designations are used starting with Alpha Beta and running through the remaining letters in the Greek alphabet. After Alpha Omega is used, the next chapter would be designated Beta Alpha, Beta Gamma (skipping Beta Beta), and continuing in a similar manner. Alpha Beta Gamma Delta Epsilon Zeta Eta Theta Iota Kappa Lambda Mu Nu Xi Omicron Pi Rho Sigma Tau Upsilon Phi Chi Psi Omega Revised October 2015 New Chapter Guidelines Review Committee: Immediate Past President Mary Albrecht (University of Tennessee), chair; Doug Needham (Longwood Gardens; past president and chapter advisor), Dennis Ray (University of Arizona, no established chapter), Ryan Contreras (Oregon State University, chapter established in 2011), Stephanie Burnett (University of Maine, chapter approved in 2015), and Tina Cade (Texas State University, chapter established in 2005). The committee represented land-grant and non-land-grant universities, and non-university members. The charge to the committee was to review the procedure posted on our website for clarity for the way horticulture programs are structured today and to facilitate electronic submission. |

Well this is kind of awkward ;_; but......dose anyone here have any experience with onaholes(fleshlight-like devise)? I am considering purchasing one but i do not want to buy garbage :|. I am looking for something TIGHT ( i like younger girls) and realistic as possible. Anny help would be appreciated. o.o' Thanks for reading >.<
We've removed the links in your post, you aren't permitted to post the ones you had. Anyway, seeing as you're only 20, how much younger exactly are you looking for a toy to portray? Saying that and being as young as you are comes off kinda...odd. To answer your post? No, I don't have a cock, therefore I have not had experience with "una holes"
Kind of odd that that wouldn't be aloud when there are pictures of dildos on the stickied thread but wutevah. :S
fleshlights always seem to get pretty positive feedback from what i've seen. i don't know if anything comes in different tightness but im not sure how different these holes are you're talking about either this thread will probably be deleted now..........
It wasn't the *images* it was the links to sites to buy them. Had they been just images? It would have been fine.
No, I deleted it. I asked the question, I got the answer. He had no intention of actually mentioning age.
And indeed i didn't really want to answer it myself ;_;.....Oh well thanks for the quick response and not simply freaking out and banning. Odd to see good moderators on forums.
We're all pretty laid back here to be honest. If you're curious of the rules, go ahead and read them in my signature and you'll be able to make sure you don't step on toes
Go to Videos and watch the one titled, With Toy. That looks so tight it hurts to watch. You can leave a comment there asking that member what kind it is.

PoliticsDarfur leader 'ready to do battle' Minni Minnawi, the only leader to sign Darfur peace deal with government, blames it for failing it and quits post. 13 Dec 2010 10:24 GMT | Politics, Africa, US & Canada, France, Sudan Minnawi has accused the government of "manoeuvring" for the past four years [AFP] Minni Minnawi, the only Darfur faction leader to have signed the Darfur Peace Agreement [DPA] with the Sudanese government, has declared the failure of the 2006 deal. The announcement deals another blow to Khartoum, which faces the possibility of the southern portion of the country seceding in an upcoming poll. On Sunday, Minnawi accused the government of failing to implement the Darfur agreement, saying that he is ready to do battle. Minnawi, the Sudan Liberation Army [SLA] faction leader, secured several official titles after he signed the peace accord with Khartoum. But he has abandoned his government-allocated office in Khartoum where he had been serving as "senior assistant" to President Omar al-Bashir. He has since moved to Juba, the capital of the South Sudan, the autonomous part that is hoping to become an independent country in the upcoming referendum on January 9. The government declared last week that Minnawi, its one-time partner was now an "enemy," and closed his Khartoum office. Southerners "reject the policy of this [Khartoum] government" and will choose secession next month, Minnawi predicted, leaving behind northern Sudan as a "failed state." Clashes Two people were killed in fighting between Minnawi's forces and Sudanese troops in Khor Abeche, a southern Darfur village, on Friday and Saturday. Kemal Saiki, the spokesman for a joint UN and African Union peacekeeping mission in Darfur, said one person was killed and four were wounded in Friday's fighting. He added that homes were burnt and people sought refuge with peacekeepers. Fighting on Saturday killed one person and wounded eight, he said. The clashes come as three million people have registered to vote in South Sudan's independence referendum. Minnawi said that, "Our relation with the government of Khartoum was the DPA agreement. Now they are cancelling the DPA". "They stated that our forces have become a target of the SAF forces [Sudanese army]. That means they are pulling out of the DPA agreement," the SLA leader said. The peace agreement is due to expire in April 2011. "I can say very clearly that whenever they target our forces we will also target their forces," said Minnawi. "We will defend ourselves." Sawarmi Khaled Saad , Sudanese army spokesman, blamed Minnawi's group for the latest clashes. "Minnawi's group began the rebellion and they are now a target of the armed forces," he said. Minnawi said that he had signed the agreement, hoping that it will change the situation in Darfur "politically, economically and socially, and for security," He stressed that Sudan would need a complete overhaul after the referendum and blamed the government for failing to unify Africa's largest nation. Reunification Minnawi also hinted at the possibility of the reunification of the Sudan Liberation Movement [SLM], saying that,"now we are talking about that." He spilt from the SLM after Haskanita conference in November 2005, but has now said that he is willing to start talks with Abdel Wahid al-Nur, the head of a larger SLA faction, who lives in exile in France. Nur has long refused to take part in the peace process with the Khartoum government, and he has proposed convening the SLA for talks in Paris on the future of Darfur and Sudan. Scott Gration, the US special envoy to Sudan, discussed the ongoing efforts to end Darfur conflict in Doha with Vice-President, Ali Osman Taha. According to western sources, Gration is pushing to include Minnawi in the Doha peace process, who has expressed his readiness to rejoin Doha peace process if invited to do so.Source: Agencies

It always warms the cockles of my meager heart when politicians and the like trot out the phrase "decent, hard-working Americans" and all the attendant virtues that accompany such an accolade. I would like to take this opportunity to refute them one by one as they apply to me so we all know where we stand.
1) "decent" Not one politician, elected official, law-enforcement officer,military personnel or person of the cloth has earned the right to judge me "decent." I read about your bribe-taking, your influence peddling, the breaking of your marriage vows, the beating and tasering of suspects, the pedophilia rampant in the church, the detainment of suspects without due process, the "enhanced interrogation techniques"; these are what define you, not me. I don't want compliments issued from corrupt and soiled mouths of the putrid elite. Your praise means nothing to me.
2) "Hard-working" - now there's a laugh. I no longer believe in the American work ethic. It is a lie and con-job to make the proletariat feel as though they have some control and pride in their pathetic obligations to the corporate state. Me? I'm a state employee and I guarantee you are not getting your money's worth from your tax dollars here in California. I make it a point to fuck around on the internet for at least three hours out of every work day. I use company time and vehicles to run personal errands. In other words, I take full advantage of the system for my benefit-I don't give a damn if it fits in with my employer's desires and goals, I work around those. I derive great satisfaction in lowering American productivity, especially at taxpayer expense since your taxes pay my salary.
3) Patriotic. Fuck that. Any allegiance or loyalty I had to this country is over and finished. It was minimal at best in my early youth, but as I've seen the things we are capable of here and abroad, my sense of national and civic pride has shriveled to next to nothing. The American Democratic experiment was a marvelous idea; it's just too bad that greed, avarice, corruption, lust for power and complacency rotted it from within. And the the Supreme Court's most recent ruling concerning the place of the American Corporation in American Society has eroded whatever residue of respect I once had for the institutions of this country. If a corporation now has the same status as a human being, I shall be removing my name from the voter registration rolls, I will not stand for the national anthem nor will I rise to my feet when the flag goes by. That shit is for suckers.
4) "God fearing" - I always like how they throw that one to keep us all humble and honest. I believe in "something" but it certainly isn't Christian American Jesus and His Pass The Silver Plate On Sunday mega-Churches....you want to see God, look at a book of Hubble Telescope Photographs. You want to understand the Universe, read a book about particle physics...if neither of those is able to generate a spiritual experience of some sort, then you are a sheep and deserve to spend your Sundays listening to the corrupt and greedy tell you how to conduct your lives because you lack the imagination to do for yourselves.
5) The "Star & Bars" is an archaic antique now that the Supreme Court has decided that corporations are "people", too. So burn your flags as the stars will be replaced with corporate logos in the coming years. I'll be burning mine soon and taping it for YouTube.
6) I get particularly gleeful when Amerikans defend themselves by saying, "I pay my taxes." As if it is volitional...have you ever examined your paycheck...the taxes are already deducted. It's not like your employer comes to your paycheck and says, "Wow, look at John Q. Idiiot, willing to fork over so much money to support this great nation of ours." It is the law, motherfucker, so don't beat your chest and proclaim the majesty of your extra special citizenship because you pay taxes-we all do, so shut the fuck up.
All I ask from you Amerika is to leave me the fuck alone. I don't want any part of your nation-building, your "export" of freedom and liberty, your military adventurism, your one party politics, your rah-rah we're the greatest nation on earth, your 500 channels of television, your illiterate yard apes of children, your can do spirit....I'm sick of it all. It's hollow, it's empty, it's an illusion and a delusion. You keep telling yourself your lies that enable you to get up in the morning and face the simulacrum of your lives.....just don't involve me.
Why I Am No Longer A Decent, Hard Working, Patriotic, God-Fearing, Flag Waving, Tax-Paying Amerikan.

Time to Try a New Dessert! Almond, Ricotta, and Blood Orange Cake
We might be busy working on the events to raise money for breast cancer research for Bakes for Breast Cancer including Boston Bakes for Breast Cancer, Rhode Island Bakes for Breast Cancer and Cape & Islands Bakes for Breast Cancer but we still try to find the time to take a break and make something special.
There are so many recipes that we see in our Facebook feed flash bye our eyes and every so often there is that one recipe we say we have to try!

Genomic Studies Reveal a Tumor's Secrets
By Robert Levy
One day, the genome of a tumor will be as revealing as a tell-all memoir. Doctors will obtain a full report on each tumor's genomic quirks – its vulnerabilities, defenses, survival strategies, even its history of advance and retreat. The revelations will help physicians decide which therapies, in which order and at what doses, are most likely to work.
At Dana-Farber and other centers around the world, the effort to understand tumors at such an intimate level is well under way. Advances in DNA sequencing are enabling scientists to catalog the full extent of genomic abnormalities in many types …
Cape & Island Bakes
Just like in Boston, Boston Bakes has widespread partners throughout the North East. Our newest partnerships take us all the way to Cape Cod, Nantucket, and Martha's Vineyard for a week of baking delicious desserts and fundraising right at the beginning of June. While our newest set of fundraising events, Cape & Island Bakes has grown relatively large in the few years it has been running, and now encompasses much of the seaside Massachusetts.
Just like in Boston, restaurants all up and down the seacoast partner with us to serve delicious desserts, such as fan favorites like Boston Creme Pie …
Boston Bakes Rundown
May is upon us! And with it, comes our first round of fundraising events: Boston Bakes. Boston Bakes is a whole week in May (2nd-8th) and it comprises of restaurants, bakeries and retail partners from across the state, all involved in selling the baked goods that will support the breast cancer research of Dr. Parsons. Dr. Parsons is seeking to revolutionize the way we treat breast cancer, and as a result improve the quality of life of patients across the country. A recipient of many awards, she is also the recipient of our research funds that were raised in 2015 …
Young Investigators in Cancer Research
As you guys know, April is Cancer Control Month. So I thought I would take the time to highlight a young researcher looking for biological predispositions and responses to breast cancer in the bodies of women: Dr. Heather Parsons. A graduate of Dartmouth College, she also received her Masters in Public Health from Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health. After receiving her medical degree from Drexel University, she eventually completed her residency and fellowship at John Hopkins Hospital and joined Dana-Farber Cancer Institute.
Now a medical oncologist for the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and an instructor at Harvard Medical School, Dr. …
Trying a Video Recipe -Chocolate Almond Braid
Have you ever wondered how easy those video recipes really are? We've all seen them, a two minute long video with a delicious looking dessert recipe, but how often do we actually try them out? Well, I decided to try one of these recipes and see if reality matched the sweet image of dessert in the videos.
Tasty is the reigning authority on easy, delicious, and interesting desserts for bakers and novices alike, and so I took their Chocolate Almond Braid recipe for a whirl. It seems almost too easy and too delicious not to try. A crispy flaky pastry filled …
April Is Cancer Control Month
With April coming up at the end of this week, I thought I would highlight that April is in fact Cancer Control Month, as proclaimed by President Obama in 2015. In recognition of all of the researchers who dedicate their life to finding a cure for cancer in all of its form, and in dedication to those who continue to fight it, Cancer Control Month is to commemorate a battle for a future free from cancer. (Presidential Proclamation))
Breast cancer is the second leading cause of death amongst women, and is one of the most common types of cancer that affects …

Healthy, Refreshing Smoothie!
This summer, I have been practicing eating healthier just to feel great inside and out! One of my favorite meals (or, snacks) is this delicious smoothie I have been making a couple of times a week!

For the third episode of my web series, Fucking Baked, I shot with my real-life partner, Freddy Fox.
My character, Agatha, moves to Berlin and crashes at a friend's place for a few nights before finding a flat of her own.
She becomes obsessed with spying on her host, watching him in his most intimate moments, until she has no choice but to come forward and try and make her fantasies real.
This scene uses a mix of wide angle shots and POV footage from my perspective. It's a very special episode to me since it features the intimacy Freddy and I share in our personal life.

My "2 Way" Faith
Before I found recovery, I was an incredibly cynical person.

by Staff Writer / Buffalo SabresBuffalo Sabres Managing Partner Larry Quinn announced today that the Sabres have agreed to terms on multi-year contracts with General Manager Darcy Regier and Head Coach Lindy Ruff.
"On behalf of Tom Golisano and the organization, I want to say that we're very thrilled to be able to reach this agreement," said Quinn. "Both guys really represent the franchise in every way, and we're very excited about what the future brings. We consider them to be major assets to the organization."
Both Regier and Ruff joined the Sabres organization in 1997, and currently make up the longest tenured head coach/GM duo in the NHL. Among the four major professional team sports, they trail only Bobby Cox/John Schuerholz (Atlanta Braves, 1990) and Tony LaRussa/Walt Jocketty (St. Louis Cardinals, 1995) in terms of combined longevity.
Buffalo won a franchise-best 53 games this past season to win their first ever Presidents' Trophy, awarded to the NHL team with the best overall regular season record. The Sabres led the NHL with 308 goals scored in 2006-07, and made their second consecutive trip to the Eastern Conference Finals.
Considered by many as a pioneer of the new NHL, Regier has molded the Sabres into one of the most exciting and competitive teams in professional hockey. Regier has developed a mix of young talent and skilled veterans to combine for the ultimate "team first" model. Regier and his hockey operations staff put a strong emphasis on player development, beginning with their minor league affiliate in Rochester (AHL). This development plan paid off last season, as 22 of the 33 players who dressed for Buffalo were Sabres draft choices who had spent time in Rochester.
"I'm very excited to continue the work here," said Regier. "I think that where we left off this past season, and what we have to look forward to, is both exciting and incomplete. It's an opportunity to continue down that road, and I think that it's every bit important to continue it with the people that you developed everything with."
In addition to being the longest-tenured head coach in the NHL, Ruff is the winningest coach in Sabres history. In his nine seasons behind the Sabres bench, Ruff has compiled a regular season record of 358-289-71. He is ranked eighth among active coaches in wins, 11th all-time for coaching wins with one franchise, and 30th all-time in NHL history. Ruff is a finalist to win his second consecutive Jack Adams Trophy tonight as the NHL's Coach of the Year.
"I think that the relationship and the people here in the organization is something that's important to me," said Ruff about his decision to return. "The relationship that Darcy and I have, and the fact that where we've come from and where we got this team to.
"We obviously went through some real tough times. We've got the team to a level of play that is very exciting. Obviously you're disappointed with the way we finished this year. It leaves a scar but I really feel that this franchise has a tremendous future. I have one goal and that's to just win the cup, and I feel my best chance is here."
Ruff also has a franchise-best postseason record of 52-36. In only his second season as a head coach, Ruff led the 1999 Sabres to their first Stanley Cup Finals appearance in 24 years. The Sabres have been the Eastern Conference Finals in four of Ruff's nine seasons.
Ruff was the Sabres' second-round (32nd overall) draft pick in 1979. He made the team at his first training camp and playing in 63 games during the 1979-80 season and was named the team's rookie of the year. Ruff ranks sixth all-time on the Sabres' regular season list in penalty minutes (1,126) and is tied for 11th in games played (608). In 691 career games, he recorded 105 goals and 195 assists to go with 1,264 penalty minutes. He was named as the Sabres captain from 1987-89 following the retirement of Gilbert Perreault.
