Volume 3 Flogmaster Random Praise for the Flogmaster’s Writing This was very deep and dark. If the girl wants to demoralize herself for the sake of a stupid sorority group, so be it. BENDOVER I have never read a story this intense before this moment. Whew! I can barely catch my breath. What a magnificent piece! ISLANDCAROL Very good. Exciting read. LIZZYHAYES This is well thought out and written. LITTLEJEFF This was well done, brief to the point of terse, with no back story to entertain us we had to concentrate on the issue in front of us: that of those perfect buttocks being thrashed. Lovely. OPB This is such a naughty, inappropriate story, but it was also fun to read. ;) SARAH89 Worth reading! GUY Selected Excerpts From A Wicked Game: If you aren’t familiar with Chutes and Ladders, your goal is to move your piece from square one to square 100. Some squares have chutes (slides) that send you backwards, while others have ladders that let you take a shortcut forward. There’s no skill at all: it’s pure dumb luck. Which is why it makes a fantastic spanking game. From Fully Deserved 1: As Ben flexed the rod she dove over lithely, fingertips brushing the tops of her toes. The proud buttocks rounded and broadened, the black fabric of the swimsuit disappearing further into the cheeky divide. The bared globes thrust outward impressively, curving into tanned thigh. From DisASSter: Kira’s bottom was a good one. It jutted out a full eight inches from the back of her thighs, and it was as tight as a miser’s fist over a coin. The teen had fun all morning flaunting her rear. Wearing pants was against school policy, but it was her first offense and they’d go light on her. From Rinse, Lather, Repeat: Why do I keep doing this to myself? she wondered. It was her last coherent thought for a while. The board slammed into her big left cheek, flattening it, and the familiar hot sting flowed through her. As always, it seemed much worse than she remembered, and yet she knew from experience that this was just the beginning and in ten minutes she’d be begging to die it would be so bad.

About the Warning labels Because spanking stories often involve extreme topics (S&M, sex acts, etc.), the Flogmaster labels his stories to give readers an idea of what might be included. Here’s a sample: Paul Bunyan and the Great Lakes (★ ★ ★ ★ , M/Ffff—Absurdly Severe, nc ole fashion paddlin’) A strange new twist on the ole yarn about how Paul Bunyan and Babe the Blue Ox created the Great Lakes. (Approximately 1,758 words.) The stars are the Flogmaster’s own ratings of his stories. They indicate writing quality, not necessarily eroticism. Five star stories are my very best. Stories are marked with mFmf labels to indicate who is spanking whom. Capital letters represent adults and lower case are minors (under 18), and of course, M refers to males and F to females. Under this system, anything to the left of the slash indicate a Spanker and anything to the right a Spankee. Therefore in the above example an adult male is spanking three girls and a woman. If there are a lot of people involved, sometimes this is abbreviated with a number, such as F6/f24, implying that 6 women spank 24 girls. Keep in mind that the label refers to the primary participants—sometimes, especially in longer stories—there may be minor spankings of a different type included. I try to indicate the overall severity level (Mild, Serious, Intense, Severe, or Edgy), as well as what types of spankings are included (i.e. caning, birching, hairbrush spanking, etc.). Stories may also contain other warnings and explanations. These are usually self-explanatory words like “sex” or “anal” (to indicate types of sexual activity). You may also see references to cons or non-cons (or nc). Those abbreviations refer to consensual and non- consensual spankings. (Punishment spankings, especially those of children, are usually nc.) Some stories are labeled semi-cons, meaning it’s partially consensual (e.g. a reluctant wife submitting to her husband’s discipline because she knows she deserves punishment). The second line contains a brief description of the story. I try not to include any “spoilers” that would ruin the plot for you. The description should intrigue if you are interested in the subject matter, and warn you away if you are not. As always, read at your own risk. There’s also an approximate word count of the story.

  • Settlers, Africans, and Inter-Personal Violence in Kenya, Ca. 1900-1920S
    International Journai of African Historicai studies Vol. 45, No. 1 (2012) 57 Settlers, Africans, and Inter-Personal Violence in Kenya, ca. 1900-1920s By Brett Shadle Virginia Tech ([email protected]) As Fanon noted, violence was inherent in inter-racial relations in settler colonies, and Ngugi reiterated this point specifically in regard to Kenya.' When attempting to write a cultural history of white settlers, Ngugi found nothing of value. He observed only garish paintings in upscale Nairobi bars featuring scenes of colonial life: scrawny Africans pulling whites in rickshaws, a "long bull-necked, bull-faced settler" holding a sjambock (Afrikaans: whip) and his loyal (and well-fed) dog at his side. It was just such a scene, Ngugi refiected, that summed up white settlement: "The rickshaw. The dog. The sjambock. The ubiquitous underfed, wide-eyed, uniformed native slave."2 In the end, as Ngugi put it, "Reactionary violence to instill fear and silence was the very essence of colonial settler culture."3 As is so often the case, Ngugi cut to the heart of the matter: one cannot envision the settler without the sjambock, or in Kenyan parlance, the kiboko (hippopotamus-hide vvhip).'^ Often settlers considered beatings as part and parcel of life in Africa, almost akin to milking the cows or cleaning the kitchen (if, in fact, Europeans ever performed such menial tasks). In the flrst several decades of colonial Kenya, settlers certainly did not hesitate to discuss their use of the lash. In a letter to the East African Standard in 1927, Frank Watkins bragged that, "I thrash my boys if they deserve it and I will let [African defender and settler critic] Archdeacon Owen or anyone else enquire into my methods of handling and working labour."5The Times of East Africa believed, "Probably there is not ' Franz Fanon, Wretched of the Earth (New York: Grove Weidenfeld, 1963); Ngugi wa Thiong'o, Detained: A Writer's Prison Diary (London: Heinemann, 1981), Chap.

PUNISHMENT FOR CRIME IN NORTH CAROLINA ALBERT CoATEs* When Charles II in 1663 gave the province of Carolina to eight of his favorite friends, he gave them power to execute the laws "upon all people within the said province ... by imposition of penalties, im- prisonment, or any other punishment; yea, if it shall be needful, and the quality of the offence requires it, by taking away member and life, either by them [the Lords Proprietors] or their deputies, lieutenants, judges, justices, magistrates or officers whatsoever." He went further and gave them the added power "to remit, release, pardon and abolish (whether before judgment or after) all crimes and offences whatsoever, against the said laws."' Beginning with this grant of power, this article undertakes to outline North Carolina's penal policy from colonial be- ginnings to the present day, as it is recorded in constitutional provisions, legislative enactments, judicial decisions, and departmental rulings.

Bessler* ABSTRACT The Eighth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, like the English Bill of Rights before it, safeguards against the infliction of “cruel and unusual punishments.” To better understand the meaning of that provision, this Article explores the concept of “unusual punishments” and its opposite, “usual punishments.” In particular, this Article traces the use of the “usual” and “unusual” punishments terminology in Anglo-American sources to shed new light on the Eighth Amendment’s Cruel and Unusual Punishments Clause. The Article surveys historical references to “usual” and “unusual” punishments in early English and American texts, then analyzes the development of American constitutional law as it relates to the dividing line between “usual” and “unusual” punishments.

I situate certain modes, discourses, and texts produced by prisoners—scientific research, jailhouse legal work, letter-writing, revolutionary polemic, and testimonial writing—within a larger rubric of what I call “productive intellectual labor.” The project draws on Marxist debates to define each part of that term and employs the work of Michel Foucault to contextualize prevailing historical notions regarding penal labor, the evolution of punishment, and discursive trends of those writing back to power.

THE LIFE OF ROBERT BURNS % Catherine Carswell CHATTO & WINDUS : LONDON MCMXXX PRINTED IN GREAT BRITAIN BY T. AND A. CONSTABLE LTD. EDINBURGH ALL RIGHTS RESERVED Without D. H. LAWRENCE, my friend, and DONALD CARSWELL, my husband, this book could not have been. I therefore inscribe it to them both— ‘ That I, for poor auld Scotland’s sake, Some usefu’ plan or beuk could make.’ PREFACE BIOGRAPHERS of Burns have all one point at least in common with each other and with their poet. Many eyes ‘ watch for their halting.’ As there has not yet been a Burns biographer worth reading who has made no mistakes, and there probably never will be one, the watchers need never go empty away. Our biographical material has been shockingly dealt with, much of it wantonly mutilated and some of it deliberately destroyed, a fact which in itself has to be reckoned with in attempting to restore just proportions. What remains is widely scattered and deeply imbedded in other matter. In the present case new, hitherto unprinted, material of the first importance has kept cropping up even after the book was in proof, and though no pains have been spared to incorporate it relevantly in the narrative it is highly possible that other existing information has been missed and that more, as yet undiscovered, will be forthcoming.
