The space station Termagentihub of commerce, culture, and civilizationmay be haunted. Dangerous power surges, inexplicable energy manifestations, and strange accidents plague the station. Even after generations of exploring deep space, humanity has yet to encounter another race, and yet, some believe that what is troubling the station may be an alien life form.Jhinsei and his operations team crawl throughout the station, one of many close-knit working groups that keep Termagenti operational. After an unexplained and deadly mishap takes his team from him, Jhinsei finds himselffor lack of a better wordhaunted by his dead teammates. In fact, they may not be alone in taking up residence in his brain. He may have picked up a ghostan alien intelligence that is using him to flee its dying ship. As Jhinsei struggles to understand what is happening to his sanity, inquisitive and dangerous members of the station's managing oligarchy begin to take an increasingly focused interest in him.Haunted by his past and the increasing urgent presence of another within his mind, Jhinsei flees the station for the nearby planet Ash, where he undertakes an exploration that will redefine friend, foe, self, and other. With Substrate Phantoms, Jessica Reisman offers an evocative and thought-provoking story of first contact, where who we are is questioned as much as who they might be.

This book analyses changing views on bilingualism in Cognitive Psychology and explores their socio-cultural embeddedness. It offers a new, innovative perspective on the debate on possible cognitive (dis)advantages in bilinguals, arguing that it is biased by popular “language myths”, which often manifest themselves in the form of metaphors. Since its beginnings, Cognitive Psychology has consistently modelled the coexistence between languages in the brain using metaphors of struggle, conflict and competition. However, an ideological shift from nationalist and monolingual ideologies to the celebration of bilingualism under multicultural and neoliberal ideologies in the course of the 20th century fostered opposing interpretations of language coexistence in the brain and its effects on bilinguals at different moments in time. This book will be of interest to students and scholars of Cognitive Psychology, Psycholinguistics, Multilingualism and Applied Linguistics, Cognitive andComputational Linguistics, and Critical Metaphor Analysis.

The Bachelor franchise has been around for over two decades and amassed an army of fans across its four shows. While contestants battle to prove they’re here for the right reasons, Bachelor Nation is confronting their own question—Why are we here and why can’t we stop watching?Devout franchise fans Ilana Masad and Stevie Seibert Desjarlais pose the big questions to Bachelor Nation: Who are we? What does the franchise mean to us? And seriously, why on earth can we not stop watching?For years, fans of the Bachelor franchise have laughed with and at contestants; cried along with their heartbreaks; tuned in again and again each season despite feeling betrayed by producer and contestant decisions alike; and celebrated, alone and together, the love (or loveless) lives of perfect strangers on our television screens. And we wonder, really, why? With reality TV broadly characterized as “trash TV,” why are so many intelligent, funny, and critical people watching and discussing it?Here for All the Reasons seeks to answer this question, diving into the complex negotiations of gender, racial, and class politics that arise within the fandom. This anthology is a polyvocal exploration of Bachelor Nation for Bachelor Nation. So, will you accept our rose and join the chat?

Jessica wandered off out of the laundry, leaving Angela and Sally planning their next adventure.As she was passing by the double doors that led to the little dining area and sun room, she glanced in and saw three men sitting on a sofa. They looked much older than the other men she'd seen so far. They were happily laughing and talking and Jessica thought how relaxed they were and she wanted to know more about them."Hello gentlemen. Can I join you?" she ventured as she came close and they looked up at her.Jessica put them all in their late seventies and thought how she had never seen three men this age together before. They seemed so relaxed and unthreatening and she wanted to know them better.Three sets of appreciative and smiling eyes stared at Jessica."Welcome to the gang of three, dearest lady. You are very beautiful. Please come and sit with us. Move up Henry and let the girl have a seat. That is Colin up that end, Henry in the middle and I'm John. What is your name?""I'm Jessica. Pleased to meet you all."Jessica squeezed in between Henry and John."How is it that three fine looking men like you are all alone. Have you finished with all the lovely woman here already? Or have you been told to behave yourselves?"The three men laughed and John answered. "Well, Jessica. We are all in our mid eighties but we have one other thing in common. All three of us have wives who are much younger than us and as you can imagine, because of our age, the girls are missing out on some of the things we were once keen to share with them. As a result, we like to bring them somewhere where they can meet younger men and get a bit of you-know-what. This means that we can all stay happily married."Then Colin added his voice to the conversation. "We can get them up but they're just not hard enough anymore, are they boys. "We love our wives so we are happy that they can get a good stiff cock in them at do's like this. My Mary came past a few minutes ago to see if we were okay and said all three were having a great time and their only worry was that they might be running out of cocks."John laughed. "If that was the case, my Maureen would want him to put on the dildo when they got home and he wouldn't get to sleep until the early hours.Jessica was fascinated by what these jolly men were saying. She wondered if the three men's wives gave their cocks any attention but decided not to ask.Jessica decided to play the innocent girl. Well, sort of innocent. She told the three gentlemen about how difficult it was to find men who would just give her a gently touch-up and play with her breasts and caress her and talk to her. She put a hand on John and Henry's knees and lightly rubbed them."That sounds about all we can do, girl. Would you like us to play with you then? We certainly won't hurt you. Why don't you lay yourself across our legs so that we can all have a bit of you. Do that and we'll see how we go. What do you think fella's.A thrill ran through Jessica's body. She stood up and surveyed the men, then she lifted the hem of her skirt and asked them if she should she lay face up or face down. Two out of three said face down, so the excited girl carefully laid on top of six legs, her shoes touching the arm of the sofa one end her head on John's trousers at the other end."That is nice, isn't it fellas? She's quite something isn't she? Look at those legs."Jessica felt six sets of fingers moving gently up and down on the back of her legs and smiled inwardly.The EROS CRESCENT series take you on a journey like no other - to places you couldn't imagine - a female friendly sex club or a privately owned members-only dogging venue; the toy-boy life of a writer working on the Amalfi coast and much much more. MARY and the other novellas - MARY, MARIA, HELEN, JANICE and THE CLUB - are extracts taken from The Fifi Code, Eros Crescent and Mount Eros.

Michelle loves her daughter named Harmony, four-years old and quite a bundle. Michelle's husband, however, is something else altogether. An alcoholic in the making, Carl often gets blasted while bar drinking before he comes home from work and beats Michelle, even in front of their daughter. Michelle finally leaves her husband with Harmony in tow and visits Jessica, Michelle's paternal grandmother and with whom she'd grown up as a child after her parents died in a terrible automobile accident. One thing leads to another, and life becomes a disaster for the family, forced on the run, split from one another, and ultimately facing the law with surprises at every turn. It begins as a story often told, and ends with so many revelations, it's difficult to keep count.
