Turmoil in Highland?

This novel is the story of a man who lives and breathes High Land in the very fiber of his being. This man is Anglaisien. He carries a thousand and one memories of things and people, both seen and heard, as well as life stories and experiences. In spite of his fear, he goes alone at night to the cave. His audacity bears fruit. He receives a call from the other world. In the cave, instead of Sarasin, he finds himself face to face with a silhouette; it is his mother, High Land. He learns two astonishing and extraordinary truths: firstly, that he has been given a mission — to publish “His Mother's Cause” ; and secondly that she will be the Mother of All Nations.

Now, he and the ravishing Miss Oloffson cross paths. If in the beginning there was Adam and Eve, on the eve of the emergence of the Land of Nations, there is Anglaisien and Miss Olofsson. Given their passion for High Land, will they become King and Queen? High Land is in solid alliance with Suezza, Miss Olofsson's native country and all of her sister-nations. The emergence of High Land, Land of All Nations, this new center of the universe — will this soon take place?

In this work of marvelous, magical and prophetic allure, many worlds, many levels of symbolism, mystery, and knowledge seem to exist together, interconnect, or intersect. The places, numbers, and characters seem allegorical and resemble carriers of coded messages.

To all those who are interested in the emergence of Haiti, in its earthly and subterranean mysteries, in its waters, caves, Indian and colonial ruins, the novelist Roland Rodené, born in Les Anglais, Haiti, friend of God, author of “Cynbel and Zothia,” holder of a Bachelor's degree in Economics and a Master's Degree in Administrative Studies (Multinational Commerce) from Boston University, offers much to question, examine, compare, and reflect upon in a quest to delve more deeply into the myths and mysteries of Haiti.

For, when it concerns Haiti, fiction is never very far from reality, and vice versa.

Tina and Rudy

“But Rudy, you cannot give up these things: pasture, riding, planting peas
and prick herbs.”
“Never, Miss. Lucienne! If I don’t do them, I betrayed my farming
country, I betrayed my origins, I betrayed my parents, and I betrayed you
too, the people of the city.”
REFLECTION
If chance exists destiny too.
Free people are rich.
Young people are capable! Do not limit them!
Never betray your friends!
A good friend can be of any nationality!
Some men are transnational.
Answer the call of your heart!
e world is for us.
Give and take!
If we need intelligence and courage for life, of course, to die well, we need
faith in God through his Son Jesus Christ.

Understanding the Hadeeth (Sayings) of Prophet Muhammad in the context of the Qur’an

The Qur’an and the Sayings of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) are the two main sources of knowledge in Islam. The Qur’an is a divine revelation inspired to Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), that guides us to the truth, and has principles that improves our character and behavior. Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) applied Qur’anic teachings in his character and behavior, and therefore became an example to follow.

The Prophet (PBUH) lived more than 1400 years ago, in an environment different from our society today. He addressed issues, and answered questions, and gave advice that is relevant today. His sayings need to be understood in historical context and in the context of the Qur’an.

Intended Consequences Separatist Democracy Exposed

America’s Literary Archives are replete with historical narratives that depict and expresses the promulgation of American exceptionalism. They mostly underscore Angle-European heroism and fortitude that made possible the exploration conquests of Roanoke and Jamestown, Virginia to the technological superiority America experiences today and all major events during that four hundred years span. Some reference specific topics — Presidents, wars, race ethnicity, government, etc. — and their influence in galvanizing “The People” to produce the current worlds’ super-power. As the most notable books on American history are written by educated and influential authors that sincerely attempt to paint literary portraits of American history that are not occidentally benign, a darker, not so favorable narrative exists that has had an even greater effect on this nation than one would dare to articulate because of ideology; racism. This book however, is intended to capture an honest view of a journey through Americas’ darkest past from the disparate African American / Black perspective as they navigated a Labyrinth of Sterile immanence from servitude toward freedom and eventual acceptance of a symbiotic citizenship with symbolic equal rights by a recalcitrant ‘public’. That journey was not only plagued by a predisposed racist culture of white supremacy, it was callously sanctioned by an Anglo-Supreme Court law that still persists today in
many respects. The consequences of racism in America are intended, with respect to the ‘other’, despite plausible condescending arguments to the contrary.

This work started as a thesis and morphed into a short novel. The following edition will be a novel in earnest, and give a clear view of the origin, psychology, and perpetuation of racism in American.

The concept of “The Other” became his primary focus and prompted examination of the hidden sins of Americanism.

The Green Vial

The Green Vial, the crackling new techno-thriller from Nicholas Orsini, is about a dedicated and highly professional government scientist who gets drawn into a terrorist plot. It all starts with a deadly earthquake in the Iranian desert. Dr. Roger Rogers, a geophysicist with the U.S. Geological Survey, and his attractive graduate assistant, Teresa Marchetti, team up to lead an on-site investigation to gather scientific data from the region for their research studies. In Iran, the two meet their Iranian counterparts and Bjorn Arnarson, a Norwegian science attaché. All goes well until they are forced to make an emergency landing in a restricted biological-weapons development area and are taken into custody. While in confinement, a disillusioned member of an underground faction tells Rogers about the plot and attempt to extort millions of dollars from the U.S. government under threat of dumping anthrax bacterium into the water supplies of several major cities. With literally millions of lives at stake, Dr. Rogers finds himself confronting unimaginable challenges. What follows a dramatic escape via the Afghani border, a detour to Norway (where additional threads in the case are unraveled), and, ultimately, the involvement of the Defense Intelligence Agency and the U.S. President himself reveals Orsini as a master of suspense a worthy and welcome heir to the tradition that includes Patricia Highsmith, Graham Greene, and John le Carre.

The Human Photosynthesis

The concept of Photosynthesis (building-up something using the Energ of light) is presently applied only to the plants kingdom. However the unraveling of the intrinsic property of melanin to split and re-form the water molecule breaks the paradigm. During a study about the three main causes of blindness initiated in 1990 in Aguascalientes, Mexico; Dr. Solis Herrera found the previously unknown capacity of melanin molecule to absorb photonic energy, dissipating it in a unique manner: splitting the water molecule. The very first step of life in plants and humans is practically the same: the dissociation of the water molecule.
