"Born from lust, turn to dust. Born from sin, come on in!" The story takes place on an island. There is the storm of the century. A demonic figure wants one of the children to train in order to take his place. I'm sorry I can't think of the Mini-series name. Hope someone can explain what rthis means. Thank you.

Hiya. I didn't understand the climax of the story. Like when Santiago reaches the Pyramids he's attacked and the leader of the attackers told him that he had a similar dream but he didn't pursue it. But Santiago , I reckon , goes to the place that the leader mentioned. But, I didn't get the connection?

We seem to think famous authors are just there but they must have had a first break i Mean people like j.k rowling harry potter author must have got a break from someone. When you read Dickens history you see just which people he sucked up to to get his break . So who did rowlings sucjk up to Who did the pulitzer winner for literature suck up to who did the noble prize winner for literature suck up to to get their first break. We all know that you are a nobody untill a somebody sings yoyur praizes. So who are theese somebodies that have launched the famous authors

I just read "Honey Pie" by Haruki Murakami (http://magna.cs.ucla.edu/~hxwang/newyorker/blog/files/honeypiemurakami.html) and "For Years" by Anna Gavalda (couldn't find a link, sorry)

Despite being originally written in foreign languages, both stories struck me with their poetic precision and depth of emotion.

The realization of how similar these stories were to my situation brought about a sweetly melancholic sigh.

So. Anything similar you'd like to share? If there's a link, I'd appreciate it (don't worry if i like the short story i'll be sure to buy the collection if it is available in my local bookstore)

Thank you. :)

Hi,

Can anyone suggest any Crime Scene Investigation books. I dont want fictional ones, or ones that talk about famous murderes etc. I need more of a book that says why certain finger print techniques are used and what to look for in murder scenes or burglaries, and also what ridge detail you should look for in finger prints.

I hope this makes sense.

Thanks

Raines on ABC?
www.nbc.com/Raines/

Does anyone know if there's a pre-novel of tie-in book to this show?

Who's going to watch? It's about time Jeff Goldblum has his own show...he's a great actor. I'd like to see him work in a M. Night Shyamalan film...that's another subject...



Thanks

She felt queer pain
That said,
"you'll find rain better
Than shelter from the rain

Days filled with fiery sunshine
Strange hurt she knew
That made
her seek the burning sunlight
rather than the shade.

In months of snowy winter
When cozy houses hold,
She'd break down doors
To wander naked in the cold?

If anyone interested will:
What was She defiantly running always from?
What was she hopefully running toward?
What compelled her not to trust refuges, but keep running as a wild horse, bolted out of a barricade?
What would inspire Hughes to write such a poem?
What in his heart identified with the constant fugitive of his creation?
Why did "SHE" Not accept the validity or Apparent comfort of any of these refuges?
What would have the convincing power only she would recognize to stop her desperate flight?
Would she KNOW it if she ever came across it?
Was she wise to keep on running?
What was Hughes' strange hurt?
What was his creation's?
What ALL was he implying was the issue in this poem?

A Piece of Cake - A memoir" by Cupcake Brown.

For those of you who haven't I think you should. It is about how one lady turned who life around. It is a brillant story of survival.

I personally never had the same problems she did but I was able to relate to how she felt.

This is a really good book for anyone who has ever felt that the world does not care about them, and that they are better off dead.

If you haven't read it please do.

If you have please share with me your opinions on it.
