The body of a man with a crushed skull is found in outback Australia. Discovered hidden nearby is a letter containing cryptic clues to the location of a massive gold find in the unchartered Dead Heart of Australia. Greedy rumours fly, when a wife arrives to collect her dead husbands belongings. Not only is the not-entirely-bereaved widow out for a take, but also local authorities find themselves overrun by those willing to kill for a chance to find the gold. Speaking of killing, who bashed in the victims skull? Obese Sergeant Gillings is on the case with the help of his officers and trackers. The roguish Bob and his lover, Chaenee, are on the hunt as well. Australian Aborigines in the Dead Heart are on a rampage because strangers enter their forbidden territory. These gold-hungry adventurers have to fight each other, wild natives, and the unforgiving terrain itself on the perilous path to striking it rich.

Everyone has a story to tell, myself included, and though I will never claim mine is any more spectacular or important than the next, I will say that if I had a book from someone else who had dealt with the kinds of issues I was, it would have literally changed my life. It is with that in mind that I present my raw, honest, and most intimate thoughts I somehow worked through after just surviving an uphill battle with cancer, only to get married, and subsequently divorced... All before I could legally drink. But writing in a journal, I think, saved my life. I was able to talk about all of the sad, depressing, angry, mean, and just plain odd things that went through my mind at such a confusing point in my life. Every page bleeds emotion, and every mark screams with honesty. By no means does The Dead-Heart Diaries read like a typical book/memoir/autobiography, or whatever you want to classify it as; it reads like words poured straight from the heart into a pen, and I can only classify it as Honesty.

Literature is one of the richest sources of information concerning the ways in which human beings play with cognition. Human cognition is grounded in the ability to feel, perceive, and move. Kinesic Humor examines literary works written in different languages and various historical periods, in which the cognitive processing of gestures and kinesic interactions trigger humorous effects. By bringing together literary studies, cognitive studies, gesturestudies, and humor studies, this book offers an original perspective on literary artworks such as Chrétien de Troyes' Yvain, Milton's Paradise Lost, Cervantes' Don Quixote, Rousseau's Confessions, Sterne's Tristram Shandy, and Stendhal's Le Rouge et le Noir.

In order to understand what color-ism is, one must be apart of the on going problem. Many "African American" individuals in America do still wonder what to call the tone of their skin. Some appreciate "African American" as a race, others still wonder where "African America" is. Some appreciate "black", others only relate black to evil. Then many people will just sit comfortably on the word "nigga", but our ancestors wouldn't approve. There is no real wrong answer. We all have a little of each in us but how do we identify it is the real question.
