This book tackles online social networks by navigating these systems from the birth to the death of their digital presence. Navigating the social within the digital can be a contentious undertaking, as social networks confuse the boundary between offline and online relationships. These systems work to bring people together in an online environment, yet participation can dislocate users from other relationships and deviant ‘online’ behaviour can create ‘offline’ issues. The author begins by examining the creation of a digital presence in online networks popularized by websites such as Facebook and MySpace. The book explores how the digital presence influences how social, cultural and professional relationships are discovered, forged, maintained and broken, and journeys through the popular criticisms of social networking such as employee time-wasting, bullying, stalking, the alleged links between social networks and suicide and the decline of a user’s public image. Social networks are often treated as morally ambiguous spaces, which highlights a dissonance between digital and social literacies. This discord is approached through an exploration of the everyday undercurrents present in social networks. The discussion of the digital presence ends by addressing the intricacies of becoming ‘digitally dead’, which explores how a user removes their identity, with finality, from social networks and the entire web.

A very rich Englishman has established a special and elite club in Saudi Arabia, Sir Arthur Shankley likes to be referred to as 'The Sheik' and frequently appears in Arabic robes; particularly when he is entertaining the members of his club by showing off one of his female slaves being tormented to orgasm ... or simply being sexually tortured.Angela is a single woman of twenty four, working in London as a financial assistant. She is a true blonde, tall and very well built - in fact busty. She attends a gym regularly and maintains her gymnastic skills. A flexible (in the Sheik's words) female as attractive and intelligent as Angela, is just what the Sheik is looking for now that the last woman who satisfied his requirements has died of a heart attack.A private detective Dunford is given the task of finding such a girl, which he does - Angela. She is captured, gagged, hobbled and dressed in an all-enveloping garb and shipped out on the Sheik's private plane to Saudi Arabia as one of his household and in a group of five or six similarly dressed Arabic women who are not gagged and gabble constantly. Sadly it is just four days before her wedding was to be celebrated.When she arrives Angela is immediately introduced to the women's special quarters where she is inspected intimately, informed of her 'duties' and prepared for her first appearance before the Sheik and his guests.Iain Blackman is her employer and after a few months became her lover. After the abduction he confronts the private detective, learns what has happened to her and determines to rescue her

Jonathan Thomas, with his vibrant prose, his keen eye for human foibles, and his ability to generate an atmosphere of grisly terror, can take his place as a leading weird writer of this century. This sixth collection of his weird stories contains a wealth of narratives, long and short, that have made him one of the most acclaimed writers of supernatural fiction in the past two decades. Thomas excels in the elaboration of themes and motifs found in the work of H. P. Lovecraft, and in this volume such tales as "The Once and Future Waite," "A Box from Blackstone," and "Avenging Angela" extrapolate upon both Lovecraft's stories and Lovecraft himself as a complex and enigmatic figure. Several are set in Lovecraft's hometown of Providence, R.I. Thomas's skill in the evocation of terrors from the remote past-whether it be the Neolithic age or the era of Romans and Celts-is exemplified in "The Shaman's Smile," "Nos Morituri," "Flouting Pascal," "After the Legions," and "Grave Days in Skara Brae." But Thomas doesn't hesitate to infuse weirdness in contemporary everyday life, as in "The Uncanny Comeback of E" and "One Across." The fusion of the ancient and the modern is at the heart of "Widow's Walk," "A Dip in the Bog," "Lead On, Vergil," and "The Muybridge Cocktail."
