The braai is so much more than a social event or a meal. It is a ritual, an experience, perhaps the closest thing to a meditative state many of us will achieve. Even the vegetarians know that. Sometimes, however, things get burned, fights break out and somebody gets naked. And covered in potato salad. What does this have to do with the book you're scanning curiously? MK has a big problem - she has woken up a week later than she went to bed. Somebody has been feeding her cat. She has no explanation for it, but is smart enough to know it can't be good. In Johannesburg and Cape Town, sinister plots are afoot, and MK - no stranger to the deep end - may just be in over her head. The lady usually causing all the trouble now faces it from all sides - political fanatics, a Hollywood party girl, a secret agent, and most diabolical of all - local television.
Miss Kwa Kwa (or MK) is learning that in a country supposedly so black-and-white, there are a million shades of grey - 'Coconuts', 'Wiggas' and 'Buppies' are a few examples. But behind the simple facade of the rural, charming Miss Kwa Kwa lies a mind as sharp as a panga and just as deadly - and somewhere in this Rainbow Nation is a pot of gold with her name on it. Unaware that several people are chasing her, MK begins stalking a politician who has just checked his wife into rehab. Utterly charmed by MK, he takes her to the top-secret Studio 94 with its exclusive clientele. Throw in coincidence/fate, skulduggery, a crazed prostitute named Leeyann, a terrifying thunderstorm and a blackout, and it's a recipe for disaster. Everything comes to a head at Studio 94, resulting in comeuppance, fame and an unusual romance. And Miss Kwa Kwa becomes the host of her own new talk show called Kwa Kwa Konfidential.
If you want an easy-to-read novel with dynamic characters out to change the world, look no further than Geo-Shifting: Social Cause Games. In this fascinating story, four political science students from Morehouse College in Atlanta are bent on carrying out the wishes of the "99 percenters." After the senseless death of Trayvon Martin, these black political science majors set out to literally change our laws and government. They seek financial fairness, an end to police profiling, detox of all addicts, and for America to stop policing the entire world. These bright activists come up with a "Social Plan," invent two sports, and attempt to organize a worldwide event. Read this page-turner to find out if their Social Cause Games pan out and if they are actually Molding Futures One Move at a Time. How could the foursome find celebrities to participate in their games? But the ultimate question is: Did their event transform the social conscience of the world? Originally from Miami, Stephen C. Simms Sr. now lives with his wife in North Carolina. After six years as a middle and high school teacher, he recently completed his MBA. He wanted this novel to show how a group of "average Joes" could fight corporate corruption and win. The author hopes to write a suspense thriller next.

Fremont is a culture (ca. 300-1300 A.D.) first defined by
archaeologist Noel Morss in 1928 based on characteristics unique to
the area. Initially thought to be a simple socio-political system,
recent reassessments of the Fremont assume a more complex society.
This volume places Fremont rock art studies in this contemporary
context. Author Steven Simms offers an innovative model of Fremont
society, politics, and worldview using the principles of analogy
and current archaeological evidence. Simms takes readers on a trip
back in time by describing what a typical Fremont hamlet or
residential area might have looked like a thousand years ago,
including the inhabitants' daily activities. Francois Gohier's
captivating photographs of Fremont art and artifacts offer an
engaging complement to Simms's text, aiding us in our understanding
of the lives of these ancient people.
