Okay, so I'm really into love stories... I love the Twilight series because it's dramatic, passionate and suspenful at the same time.

The thing is, I have an assignment where I have to choose a book that is considered a classic. What are some good suggestions for classic, romantic books? Page number is not an issue ; )

It involves the Levees having been breached in New Orleans at the time of Katrina.

After the storm went by (where the category 5 didn't even hit New Orleans) the water began to stack up.
Had the levees not broken, some of the wealthiest areas of New Orleans including business districts and historical districts would certainly have suffered the damage.

Some people believe that the Levees were purposely destroyed to prevent further destruction to the more prosperous parts of the city.

If this is true, then the decision would have been responsible for hundreds of deaths in the 9th ward.

How would a person go about investigating such a claim?

How do you distinguish between your dream; something your called to do in life and something that is simply a fantasy? How do you know which is the real thing? And most of all, where can we find the courage to take the risk of following our real dream?

What is life?
Life is like a big obstacle
put in front of your optical to slow you down
And everytime you think you gotten past it
it's gonna come back around and tackle you to the damn ground
What are friends?
Friends are people that you think are your friends
But they really your enemies, with secret indentities
and disguises, to hide they true colors
So just when you think you close enough to be brothers
they wanna come back and cut your throat when you ain't lookin
What is money?
Money is what makes a man act funny
Money is the root of all evil
Money'll make them same friends come back around
swearing that they was always down
What is life?
I'm tired of life
I'm tired of backstabbing *** snakes with friendly grins
I'm tired of committing so many sins
Tired of always giving in when this bottle of Henny wins
Tired of never having any ends
Tired of having skinny friends hooked on crack and mini-thins
I'm tired of this DJ playing YOUR **** when he spins
Tired of not having a deal
Tired of having to deal with the bullshit without grabbing the steel
Tired of drowning in my sorrow
Tired of having to borrow a dollar for gas to start my Monte Carlo
I'm tired of motherfuckers spraying **** and dartin off
I'm tired of jobs startin off at five fifty an hour
then this boss wanders why I'm smartin off
I'm tired of being fired everytime I fart and cough
Tired of having to work as a gas station clerk
for this jerk breathing down my neck driving me bezerk
I'm tired of using plastic silverware
Tired of working in Building Square
Tired of not being a millionaire

But if I had a million dollars
I'd buy a damn brewery, and turn the planet into alcoholics
If I had a magic wand, I'd make the world suck my dick
without a condom on, while I'm on the john
If I had a million bucks
it wouldn't be enough, because I'd still be out
robbing armored trucks
If I had one wish
I would ask for a big enough *** for the whole world to kiss

I'm tired of being white trash, broke and always poor
Tired of taking pop bottles back to the party store
I'm tired of not having a phone
Tired of not having a home to have one in if I did have it on
Tired of not driving a BM
Tired of not working at GM, tired of wanting to be him
Tired of not sleeping without a Tylenol PM
Tired of not performing in a packed coliseum
Tired of not being on tour
Tired of ******* the same blonde whore after work
in the back of a Contour
I'm tired of faking knots with a stack of ones
Having a lack of funds and resorting back to guns
Tired of being stared at
I'm tired of wearing the same damn Nike Air hat
Tired of stepping in clubs wearing the same pair of Lugz
Tired of people saying they're tired of hearing me rap about drugs
Tired of other rappers who ain't bringin half the skill as me
saying they wasn't feeling me on "Nobody's As Ill As Me"
I'm tired of radio stations telling fibs
Tired of J-L-B saying "Where Hip-Hop Lives"

But if I had a million dollars
I'd buy a damn brewery, and turn the planet into alcoholics
If I had a magic wand, I'd make the world suck my dick
without a condom on, while I'm on the john
If I had a million bucks
it wouldn't be enough, because I'd still be out
robbing armored trucks
If I had one wish
I would ask for a big enough *** for the whole world to kiss

You know what I'm saying?
I'm tired of all of this bullshit
Telling me to be positive
How'm I 'sposed to be positive when I don't see **** positive?
Know what I'm sayin?
I rap about **** around me, **** I see
Know what I'm sayin? Right now I'm tired of everything
Tired of all this player hating that's going on in my own city
Can't get no airplay, you know what I'm sayin?
But ey, it's cool though, you know what I'm sayin?
Just fed up
That's my word
WOW...IS THAT TRUE?

I have it all figured out… all paths leading to the unknown are explained through a pinch of kindness and a dash of compassion, like a soup of understanding that I would drink on the coldest day. words that take time to write, but no time at all to adapt into your heart as truth. thus leading me to question if we are all born good and led to the dark side with our sorrow? I don’t know, I haven’t figured it all out yet.

So i just read Ender's game again and at the end it says that Mazer Rackham was going to be the colony ship pilot. However if you read Shadow of the Giant, the parallel series, you find that Mazer Rackham is a somewhat major character in the story so I was wondering if anyone knew what was going on there did Card screw up? or do I just need to finish reading the rest of the Ender's series for it to explain it?
