Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Fantasy Factory explores the world of women on the other end of the phone sex lines advertised in magazines like Playboy and Hustler. The author's interviews with these women, as well as her own first-hand experiences as an operator, reveal the complex ways operators and callers negotiate the shifting borders between desire and disgust, fantasy and reality, deception and belief. The Fantasy Factory raises provocative questions about the manufacture of artificial intimacy and the technological mediation of intimacy, as well as about the social construction of sexuality and gender. Flowers discovers that operators—who assume names like Tiffany and Corvette—create a virtual reality in which callers can act out fantasies that operators may find boring, disgusting, or even frightening. She also discovers that even those women who are skilled at keeping their "true self" and their phone sex persona separate find that they have to struggle to protect that self and to maintain the ability to experience real intimacy.

The street skateboarder is dedicated to his sport, and he brings in pros to tackle the Factory's ledges, rails, and stairs. Also taking in the fun at the Factory are Rob's cousin Drama; channel, the rapping receptionist, and Jeremy, Rob's manager. The crew handles Rob's innovative ideas with humor and a spirit of adventures, but they're never quite sure what he'll be up to next. Book jacket.

Book excerpt: In this extremely positive, motivational, and often laugh-out-loud memoir, Jake Paul pauses long enough from his supercharged day-to-day as a nineteen year old social media heartthrob and costar on the Disney Channel series Bizaardvark to share his takes on life, love, fame, and shooting for the moon. Growing up as a regular kid in Ohio, Jake Paul always knew he wanted to do something big, but he wasn’t sure what that thing was—that is, until he found his calling as one of Vine’s most famous comedians. As a high school sophomore, Jake began making comedy videos with his older brother, Logan, and posting them online. With every carefully staged prank, Jake and Logan’s following grew—and after a few stumbling blocks, Jake finally forged his own way. Eventually, he traded his childhood home in Cleveland for sunny, sparkling Hollywood. In You Gotta Want It, Jake reflects on the path that led him to stardom. From learning the value of a disciplined work ethic, to achieving his goals and aspirations along the way to digital celebrity, to the crazy behind-the-scenes details of his journey as a creator and actor, Jake relates the most hysterical and intimate details of his life thus far—all with the signature humor, honesty, and unstoppable attitude that have won him millions of devoted followers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do reality television programs shape our view of the world and what we perceive as real and normal? This book explores the bizarre and highly controversial world of reality television, including its early history, wide variety of subject matter, and social implications. In recent decades, reality television shows ranging from Keeping up with the Kardashians to Duck Dynasty have become increasingly popular. Why are these "unscripted" programs irresistible to millions of viewers? And what does the nearly universal success of reality shows say about American culture? This book covers more than 100 major and influential reality programs past and present, discussing the origins and past of reality programming, the contemporary social and economic conditions that led to the rise of reality shows, and the ways in which the most successful shows achieve popularity with both male and female demographics or appeal to specific, targeted niche audiences. The text addresses reality TV within five, easy-to-identify content categories: competition shows, relationship/love-interest shows, real people or alternative lifestyle and culture shows, transformation shows, and international programming. By examining modern reality television, a topic of great interest for a wide variety of readers, this book also discusses cultural and social norms in the United States, including materialism, unrealistic beauty ideals, gender roles and stereotypes in society, dynamics of personal relationships, teenage lifestyles and issues, and the branding of people for financial gain and wider viewership.

Book excerpt: A frantic father, a mysterious container, and a serendipitous encounter with an especially talented soldier of fortune come together for an international reckoning. The circle of life becomes a Mobius strip. Odds When a man retires and becomes a multimillionaire, he learns that his money can’t buy miracles, but it can buy a measure of revenge. His struggle to understand and overcome a devastating loss culminates in a glimmer of hope for maintaining connections to the dearly departed. As he immerses his mind and his money into a search for the soul and the paths it takes through multiple lifetimes, he sees as he gets closer just how far away the answer is: beyond any mortal’s reach. He enlists the help of a warrior with a special power and falls for a deceased DEA agent. In the desert hills of Mexico, evil and justice meet as past and present lives become intertwined in the search for the immortal soul. Ultimately, through a chance reunion, he learns that success in life and success at living are two very different things, that some broken hearts never heal, and that some hearts never break. What are the odds of discovering a lost progeny reanimated as a not-so-total stranger?

Book excerpt: The first part of this book assesses how television presents viewers with information - contrasting the ‘official reality’ of news and current affairs programmes with the anarchic view of the world put out by such as Morecambe and Wise and the two Ronnies. It challenges the politics of programme schedules and takes care to consider the language used in programs designed for different purposes. The second, inspiring part contains accounts of three of the author's collaborative video projects which aimed to use the medium of video storytelling to access a different way of teaching. The third and most polemical part of the book explores more about education in relation to television and video. Originally published in 1981, it is a book about the way that television, through massive and constant reinforcement, made its own language the only language; and it presents the attempts – instructive, hilarious, occasionally quite touching – made by the author and students to discover other possible languages that television might use.

Book excerpt: A No Depression Most Memorable Music Book of 2022 The forceful music that rolled out of Muscle Shoals in the 1960s and 1970s shaped hits by everyone from Wilson Pickett and Aretha Franklin to the Rolling Stones and Paul Simon. Christopher M. Reali's in-depth look at the fabled musical hotbed examines the events and factors that gave the Muscle Shoals sound such a potent cultural power. Many artists trekked to FAME Studios and Muscle Shoals Sound in search of the sound of authentic southern Black music—and at times expressed shock at the mostly white studio musicians waiting to play it for them. Others hoped to draw on the hitmaking production process that defined the scene. Reali also chronicles the overlooked history of Muscle Shoals's impact on country music and describes the region's recent transformation into a tourism destination. Multifaceted and informed, Music and Mystique in Muscle Shoals reveals the people, place, and events behind one of the most legendary recording scenes in American history.

Book excerpt: Every time you go outside, you experience the weather. It may be good, it may be bad, and it may be so bad that it ruins all your plans for the day. Have you ever wondered why the weather changes? Why are the changes sometimes expected and sometimes completely unexpected? Why is the weather forecast on the TV, radio or internet sometimes right and sometimes wrong? Is it possible that the forecast is correct but we don’t know how to read it? Can you predict the weather correctly yourself? You will find the answers in this book. This book is full of exciting facts about the weather and climates in different parts of the world, with some incredible examples of weather records and extreme weather events. You will learn how the earth’s climate has changed over millions of years, with ice ages following warm periods. How do we know if the global warming today is natural or man-made? This book is also about people. You will read about the lives of some great people who observed the weather, recorded it, and learned to predict it. They studied clouds and winds, they invented measuring instruments, they sailed to new unwelcoming lands to build weather stations there, they learned to use mathematics to predict weather. Through the lives of those people, you will follow the path the science called meteorology has made from ancient Mayas’ predictions to modern AI-created forecasts. You will find out how this science not only informs us but also saves lives. Finally, you will take a look into the future. Will future technology allow people to make perfect forecasts that can never be wrong?
