Spanking The Mind

Are you looking for a way to structure your play? Seeking some light kink and spanking in your relationship? Wish there was a resource to help you get started and follow-through? These 10 spanking games should be just what you need.This book was born out of removing the work and stress of setting up a scene. The work involved in setting up a full session was often a non-starter. We all have busy lives and at times you need someone (or something) that will tell you exactly what to do. My partner and I needed a resource that would allow us to explore some of our erotic discipline interests as well as other kink areas. With that in mind, we began searching for tools that would help us facilitate our play. Having played a lot of board games in my life, we were looking for something that would cover the setup, game play, and win condition/goal. Sadly, in reading books, blogs, and other resources, nothing quite fit the bill. There were many books describing the 'what', but not a lot on the how. Even those resources that described the 'how', were never specific enough to provide an easy to follow guide. What I did find that we latched onto were a couple of spanking games. These typically didn't have thorough outlines and lacked the beginning, middle, and end we sought for our play, but they did give us a launching off point. When you can't find what you are looking for, it might just be time to create it yourself. So, that's what we did. We formalized various games with clear rules on the setup, how to play through the game, and, where desired, a reward. This provided a means to have a spanking session without the creative burden. In these games, we included aspects of randomness and competition. No two play-through's are exactly the same, so the spice of spontaneity is still present. You'll also find that we've worked to keep these customizable, so whether your play leans towards the erotic or corporal, it is easy to adapt for your specific style. As we thought of how this benefited us, we wondered if others might also be looking for something similar. Our hope is that this book provides for you what we gained through our own labor on the project - a means to facilitate some organized fun and explore with your partner.

A real breakthrough in terms of applying a theoretical protocol to biographical material has come with Henry W. Sullivan’s unpromisingly titled The Beatles With Lacan: Rock’n’Roll as Requiem for the Modern Age. Sullivan provides an excellent analysis of the Beatles’ career – perhaps, along with Ian MacDonald’s Revolution in the Head (Fourth Estate, 1994), the best so far available. But in using the work of Lacan, Sullivan offers a psychoanalytic framework to discuss personality and creativity. He also provides a provocative analysis of the roots of rock’n’roll, arguing that the paternal guard of the time, born in the first two decades of the twentieth century, were traumatized on a subconscious level by the mistakes of their parents and, in losing respect for them, turned a blind eye to, and as a result tacitly supported, the flaunting of moral codes by their own sons and daughters in the 1950s and 1960s ‘without having been placed under any real obligation to do so’ [p. 13]. It is out of this that the Beatles’ individual biographies are discussed. Furthermore, Sullivan argues that what gives the Beatles and their music their real distinction is their location, temporally, between the modern and the postmodern world views. The albums ‘between Rubber Soul in 1965 and Abbey Road in 1969 constitute ... the first popular post-Modern classic’ [p. 172]. This is an innovative though never obtuse piece of writing, and stands as the first real attempt to theorize the Beatles’ life and work.

A child rearing expert presents a study of child-directed discipline, offering a common sense approach to the issue of discipline, parental authority, and self-esteem.

Hundreds of books have been written about The Beatles. Over the last half century, their story has been mythologized and de-mythologized and presented by biographers and journalists as history. Yet many of these works do not strictly qualify as history and the story of how the Beatles' mythology continues to be told has been largely ignored. This book examines the band's historiography, exploring the four major narratives that have developed over time: The semi-whitewashed "Fab Four" account, the acrimonious breakup-era Lennon Remembers version, the biased "Shout!" narrative in the wake of John Lennon's murder, and the current Mark Lewisohn orthodoxy. Drawing on the most influential primary and secondary sources, Beatles history is analyzed using historical methods.

Before Laura Ingalls Wilder found fame with her Little House books, she made a name for herself with short nonfiction pieces in magazines and newspapers. Read today, these pieces offer insight into her development as a writer and depict farm life in the Ozarks—and also show us a different Laura Ingalls Wilder from the woman we have come to know. This volume collects essays by Wilder that originally appeared in the Missouri Ruralist between 1911 and 1924. Building on the initial compilation of these articles under the title Little House in the Ozarks, this revised edition marks a more comprehensive collection by adding forty-two additional Ruralist articles and restoring passages previously omitted from other articles. Writing as “Mrs. A. J. Wilder” about modern life in the early twentieth-century Ozarks, Laura lends her advice to women of her generation on such timeless issues as how to be an equal partner with their husbands, how to support the new freedoms they’d won with the right to vote, and how to maintain important family values in their changing world. Yet she also discusses such practical matters as how to raise chickens, save time on household tasks, and set aside time to relax now and then. New articles in this edition include “Making the Best of Things,” “Economy in Egg Production,” and “Spic, Span, and Beauty.” “Magic in Plain Foods” reflects her cosmopolitanism and willingness to take advantage of new technologies, while “San Marino Is Small but Mighty” reveals her social-political philosophy and her interest in cooperation and community as well as in individualism and freedom. Mrs. Wilder was firmly committed to living in the present while finding much strength in the values of her past. A substantial introduction by Stephen W. Hines places the essays in their biographical and historical context, showing how these pieces present Wilder’s unique perspective on life and politics during the World War I era while commenting on the challenges of surviving and thriving in the rustic Ozark hill country. The former little girl from the little house was entering a new world and wrestling with such issues as motor cars and new “labor-saving” devices, but she still knew how to build a model small farm and how to get the most out of a dollar. Together, these essays lend more insight into Wilder than do even her novels and show that, while technology may have improved since she wrote them, the key to the good life hasn’t changed much in almost a century. Laura Ingalls Wilder, Farm Journalist distills the essence of her pioneer heritage and will delight fans of her later work as it sheds new light on a vanished era.
