This book is intended for the traveller in that special world called Imagination. Some would say that Somery does not exist. That is true, in the same sense that Middle-Earth, Utopia and Hogwarts do not exist. But still, to some people, when reading the books, those places may feel as complex and vivid as if they actually did exist. To me Somery is such a place, even if it is merely there in my head. I see it as a tool for my imagination; a trigger for my creativity. Why, I still hear some of you ask, do grown up men spend hours on something that might seem so meaningless as creating imaginary countries? Well, you could ask the same question about many things. Why do people collect stamps? Why do people dress up as characters out of Tolkien’s books? Why do people spend a whole weekend playing computer games on a network? We all get something back that makes us smile, and enjoy life. Bo Bernvill Kaxholmen 2008 4 5 SUNDRIES HOW TO GET THERE Somery has regular airline connections with a number of large cities.

Although one home approximately 50 yards from the fire was in the path of the flames, the home was not damaged. Fairchild estimated the total damaged area of the fire to be greater than or equal to 20 acres. The Texas Forestry Service re- mained on scene after the fire was ex- tinguished to establish a cordon around the home and continue monitoring for safety, Fairchild said.

Contact: [email protected] Choutouts: Language contact and US-Latin hip hop on YouTube Matt Garley This paper presents a corpus-sociolinguistic analysis of lyrics and com- ments from videos for four US-Latinx hip hop songs on YouTube. A ‘post-varieties’ (Seargeant and Tagg 2011) analysis of the diversity and hybridity of linguistic production in the YouTube comments finds the notions of codemeshing and plurilingualism (Canagarajah 2009) useful in characterizing the language practices of the Chicanx community of the Southwestern US, while a focus on the linguistic practices of com- menters on Northeastern ‘core’ artists’ tracks validate the use of named language varieties in examining language attitudes and ideologies as they emerge in commenters’ discussions. Finally, this article advances the sociolinguistics of orthography (Sebba 2007) by examining the social meanings of a vast array of creative and novel orthographic forms, which often blur the supposed lines between language varieties. Keywords: Latinx, hip hop, orthography, codemeshing, language contact, language attitudes, language ideologies, computer-mediated discourse.

The effervescence of New York's underground scene was contagious and spread to England with a 1976 tour of the Ramones that was artfully manipulated to start a fad (after the "100 Club Festival" of september 1976 that turned British punk-rock into a national phenomenon). In the USA the punk subculture was a combination of subterranean record industry and of teenage angst. In Britain it became a combination of fashion and of unemployment. Music in London had been a component of fashion since the times of the Swinging London (read: Rolling Stones). Punk-rock was first and foremost a fad that took over the Kingdom by storm. However, the social component was even stronger than in the USA: it was not only a generic malaise, it was a specific catastrophe. The iron rule of prime minister Margaret Thatcher had salvaged Britain from sliding into the Third World, but had caused devastation in the social fabric of the industrial cities, where unemployment and poverty reached unprecedented levels and racial tensions were brooding.
