What does a middle-aged Australian man know about John F. Kennedy, his Camelot years, the Democrats, Republicans, the Addams Family, and American Gothic the painting? Only what he read about, or watched on TV - and that was a lot! MATTHEW GLENN WARD always had a fantasy about saving Jack Kennedy''s life and now with this book he has his chance - and you the reader can come along for the ride! ''John F. Kennedy Lives in the Future!'' is a collection of short, mostly satirical modern day fables that take real life, and twist it ''til it leaks ''funny''. We have JFK as time traveler, Elizabethan poet John Donne as serial killer, a ghoul shotgun wedding, an unemployed cat, rivers getting married, old men taking revenge on young hoods, cheapskate heart attack victims, chocolate iPhones, plenty of booze, some drugs, gambling, stories that just make no sense plotwise, and a bit of love too - nothing is meanspirited. Influenced by such great writers as Jack Kerouac, Woody Allen, Mel Brooks, Monty Python and The Goons, ''John F. Kennedy Lives in the Future!'' is a book by an Australian that Americans will devour. With satisfying absurdity, and short flights into the surreal, your often poetic and clever wordplay delighted me with humor reminiscent of Monty Python, Groucho Marx and Woody Allen. I would read a bit to break up my day, and it made for a well needed escape from the mundane, workaday world. Fresh, spare and modern in appeal. (Though modern is such an old-fashioned word, isn''t it?) - Diane Havens (VO, Audiobooks & Narration, NJ, USA) ''John F. Kennedy Lives In The Future, '' is a collection of devious and irreverent tales which elicited more than a few sly smiles. I also thought that your stories possessed an offbeat, sometimes black sense of humour; with the collection sometimes feeling like Paul Jennings for adults. I really enjoyed reading through it. - Michael Kontoudis (Published Author, Australia) Matt Ward''s short stories and flash fictions have a fable like quality. They are witty and sharp, often touching some very contemporary or relevant issues in a fairy tale or science fiction type manner. I believe this is what makes a good modern fable successful, making it reach a very wide audience, while delivering the messages to the targeted few successfully. Fariel Shafee (World Traveler) Matthew Glenn Ward lives & writes in his home city of Newcastle, New South Wales, Australia. ''John F. Kennedy Lives in the Future!'' (2010) is his 4th book. In 2004, his novella, ''Jake'' was published by Independence Jones (Australia). In 2006 World Audience (USA) published his short story collection, ''Her Mouth Looked Like a Cat''s Bum''. In 2008 World Audience again published him, this time the book was ''Cats Creep the Fire to Art'' (poetry). His short stories have appeared in several international magazines, printed as well as online. Ditto, his articles - both serious & satirical. He dreams of writing the great Australian novel; failing that, the great.

The poems of Cats Creep the Fire to Art were penned between 1992 & 1996 by poet Matthew Ward at Newcastle University, Australia. They represent the work of a young poet searching for identity, as well as an understanding of his culture, religion, and country.

"How can you possibly prevail, when even your friends are your enemies?" Maddie Lincoln returns home to Nottingham, struggling to get to grips with a life that''s falling apart.

This dissertation casts a wide net in order to explain the recent emergence and proliferation of the contemporary anti-immigration movement in the United States. Anti-immigration activism is an understudied but not entirely overlooked phenomenon. Yet, we know incredibly little about an important set of macro- and micro- questions related to contemporary anti-immigration activism. This dissertation addresses big-picture mobilization questions, such as: What large-scale, historical preconditions set the stage for the emergence and proliferation of contemporary anti-immigration activism in the United States? And how--and through what general processes--has pro-migrant countermobilization influenced the anti-immigration movement and, perhaps, unintentionally spurred its growth? Finally, I address micro-level questions focused around the mechanics of micromobilization: How and why do individuals support anti-immigration activism? How and why do individuals become motivated to engage in anti-immigration activity? and How and why do individuals ultimately participate in anti-immigration-related activism? In sum, both big-picture and small-scale questions anchor this dissertation. By answering these I not only shed light on this specific case but also make a number of more general contributions to social movement literature.
