Is there a book or website that has Ovid’s Ars Amatoria correctly scanned?

Is there a printed book or website that has Ovid’s Ars Amatoria correctly scanned (as it applies to lines of poetry, i.e. the process of scansion, not image scanning)? I have tried using various search engines to find a source with the lines correctly scanned as a study aid in my Latin course but instead, I am finding “scanned images” of the translation or “how to scan Latin poetry” instructions (which is useless because I have nothing to compare my attempts against).

how much below the asking price should I offer for a used car? I have cash, $7-8K.?

Should I go by the kelley blue book value, offering in the range of a good trade in value? or private sale value? This would be a purchase at a car dealership, or used car dealership, not a private sale. I do not want payments……and a new car is so wasteful…it depriciates immediately and I don’t need the luxary of a new one…a good used car is what I want with NO payments

Can somebody recommend some really good books on CD.?

I am going to be doing some car traveling and I would like to get some books on tape. I have listened to quite a few already but I would like to have some suggestions. I am open to all different kinds of books, fiction, history, non-fiction. I would just like some suggestions as they can be really expensive and I don’t want to spend a bunch of money and not like the book. Thanks

What are some good books for 20-somethings?

I’m looking for some books to read. I AM NOT looking for fiction, or stories of any kind. Rather, I’m looking for books that you would give to a student graduating high-school or college. Many people i know get the book “Automatic Millionaire.” I’m looking for books like this, that aid in fitness, personality, finance, and just gaining good life wisdom. How to live life to the fullest. Good, solid in truth, Christian Faith books are good suggestions too! Thank you for your time.

Where can I find a free Plot/Summary of the book “the five people you meet in heaven” by Mitch Albom?

Why do we only read books in school about the Holocaust and none about African-American slavery?

Seeing as how slavery of that typed happened in America and is part of American history. Why is not covered in literature in schools and in English classes just as the Holocaust is as required reading?
