THE NEXT STOP by Vikram Singh Mehta Pdf

Historically in India, gas has not enjoyed the same strategic significance as oil. That picture is gradually changing. India imports 82 per cent of its oil needs and aims to bring that down to 67 per cent by 2022 by replacing it with local exploration and alternative energy sources. Natural gas is set to play a key role, with ambitious plans to increase its share in the energy mix from 6.5 per cent to 15 per cent. Increasing natural gas usage can also help India overcome several challenges such as meeting its development objectives, fulfilling mitigation efforts on the climate change front, providing energy security while reducing fiscal imbalance and so on. Needless to say, it will also have a significant bearing on India's geopolitics. Edited by Vikram Singh Mehta, an authority in the energy domain, and with essays by a number of global experts, this anthology lays out a comprehensive roadmap for India's natural gas sector by analysing supply, demand, infrastructure, pricing, regulations, finance, technology, policy and a host of other issues. The Next Stop is an essential overview of the country's emerging energy sector in the twenty-first century

Next Stop by Ivan Sanchez Pdf

Beyond the safety of New York City's news headlines, Next Stop is a train ride into the heart of the Bronx during the late eighties and early nineties at the height of the crack epidemic, a tumultuous time when hip-hop was born and money-hungry slumlords were burning down apartment buildings with tenants still inside. From one stop to the next, this gritty memoir follows Ivan Sanchez and his crew on their search for identity and an escape from poverty in a stark world where street wars and all-night symphonies of crime and drug-fueled mayhem were as routine as the number 4 train. In the game, the difference between riches and ruin was either a bullet or a lucky turn away. Almost driven insane by the poverty, despair, and senseless violence, Ivan left it all behind and moved to Virginia, but the grotesque images and voices of the dead continued to haunt him. This book honors the memories of those who died. At times heartbreakingly sad and brutal, Next Stop shares with a whole new generation the insights and hard lessons Ivan learned.

Next Stop, Reloville by Peter T. Kilborn Pdf

An eye-opening investigation of the growing phenomenon of "Relos," the professionals for whom relocation is a way of life Drive through the newest subdivisions of Atlanta, Dallas, or Denver, and you'll notice an unusual similarity in the layout of the houses, the models of the cars, the pastimes of the stay-at-home moms. But this is not your grandparents' suburbia, "the little houses made of ticky-tacky"—these houses go for half a million dollars and up, and no one stays longer than three or four years. You have entered the land of Relos, the mid-level executives for a growing number of American companies, whose livelihoods depend on their willingness to uproot their families in pursuit of professional success. Together they constitute a new social class, well-off but insecure, well traveled but insular. Peter T. Kilborn, a longtime reporter for The New York Times, takes us inside the lives of American Relos, showing how their distinctive pressures and values affect not only their own families and communities but also the country as a whole. As Relo culture becomes the norm for these workers, more and more Americans—no matter their jobs or the economy's booms and busts—will call Relovilles "home."

One Last Stop by Casey McQuiston Pdf

*INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER* *INSTANT USA TODAY BESTSELLER* *INSTANT #1 INDIE BESTSELLER* From the New York Times bestselling author of Red, White & Royal Blue comes a new romantic comedy that will stop readers in their tracks... For cynical twenty-three-year-old August, moving to New York City is supposed to prove her right: that things like magic and cinematic love stories don’t exist, and the only smart way to go through life is alone. She can’t imagine how waiting tables at a 24-hour pancake diner and moving in with too many weird roommates could possibly change that. And there’s certainly no chance of her subway commute being anything more than a daily trudge through boredom and electrical failures. But then, there’s this gorgeous girl on the train. Jane. Dazzling, charming, mysterious, impossible Jane. Jane with her rough edges and swoopy hair and soft smile, showing up in a leather jacket to save August’s day when she needed it most. August’s subway crush becomes the best part of her day, but pretty soon, she discovers there’s one big problem: Jane doesn’t just look like an old school punk rocker. She’s literally displaced in time from the 1970s, and August is going to have to use everything she tried to leave in her own past to help her. Maybe it’s time to start believing in some things, after all. Casey McQuiston’s One Last Stop is a magical, sexy, big-hearted romance where the impossible becomes possible as August does everything in her power to save the girl lost in time. "A dazzling romance, filled with plenty of humor and heart." - Time Magazine, "The 21 Most Anticipated Books of 2021" "Dreamy, other worldly, smart, swoony, thoughtful, hilarious - all in all, exactly what you'd expect from Casey McQuiston!" - Jasmine Guillory, New York Times bestselling author of The Proposal and Party for Two

Next Stop Hollywood by Steve Cohen Pdf

Historically, short stories were a rich source of successful movies and significant films. Classics such as Rear Window, High Noon, Psycho, All About Eve, and Blade Runner began as short stories. Unfortunately, many of the major venues for discovering new talent—The Saturday Evening Post, Colliers, and Mademoiselle—are gone. Today, short stories are again becoming an important basis for major motion pictures and television, with films such as Brokeback Mountain, Good Will Hunting, and Minority Report. One reason short stories are making a Hollywood comeback is Next Stop Hollywood, an organization dedicated to finding both new talent and terrific material. This volume, selected by more than sixty movie-buff readers and advised by an editorial board of Hollywood insiders, picks up where those magazines left off. These very same stories may be at a theater near you in the near future. For anyone who has been disappointed by the movies of our day compared to those of the Golden Era of Hollywood, refresh yourself with these exciting short stories, and the possibilities they hold.

Next Stop, Hell by Al Ferber Pdf

We are all on a roller coaster ride. We are all passengers on a runaway train. We are drivers under the influence, of something: love, hate, ambivalence, jealousy, lust, some element of emotion, unbridled passion. We are all careening toward the abyss. We are all on a crash course with isolation, desperation. We are all trapped in burning buildings. We are always just one step away from hell. Heaven & Hell reside within us. Which one, do you think, is behind door number two. These poems provide a roadmap to hell. Good luck on your journey.

Next Stop by Glen Finland Pdf

The summer David Finland was twenty-one years old, he and his mother, Glen, navigated the Washington, D.C., Metro trains. Every day. David has autism, and the hope was that if he could learn the train lines, maybe he could get a job. And if he could get a job, then maybe he could move out on his own. And maybe his parents’ marriage could get the jump start it so desperately needed. Maybe. A candid portrait of a differently abled young man poised at the entry to adulthood, Next Stop recounts the complex relationship between a child with autism and his family as he steps out into the real world alone for the first time. This personal narrative of a mother’s perpetually tested hope is a universal story of how our children grow up and how we learn to let go and reclaim our lives, no matter how hard that may be.

The Next Stop by John Black Pdf

The year is 2132. In the Scottish Democratic Republic violent crime has been virtually eradicated; indeed no murder has been committed for over twenty years. Madeleine Connachan is a single mother of two on her way home from work when she pulls over to wait for the heavy fog to subside. A couple of hours later her car is found next to the roadside with the grizzly remains of a body inside. Chief Inspector James Wilkie is put in charge of the investigation. Confident and intelligent, with a keen mind that can operate outside the box, he is under pressure to get results, and fast. To complicate matters, two English soldiers have managed to cross the border undetected, causing a nationwide search. Christine Howie is the Secretary of State for Home Affairs in the Scottish Government. A hard-working politician, devoted to her family, she suffers from crippling osteoarthritis and work is a welcome distraction from the pain. She is a popular figure, approachable and kind, but hides a naturally fiery nature which shouldn't be crossed. As the story unfolds she is haunted by a face from the past, her late husbands' first wife. A dark figure, cigarette in hand, moves quietly along the backstreets of central Glasgow at night. In the daytime she is just like any other civil servant; sociable when she has to be, polite and efficient. But in reality she is an assassin. A soulless, cold-hearted killer who can strike anywhere, any time, and leave no trace. She is Shadow Walker. Through the eyes of these four people, indirectly linked to each other, the reader enters a world of darkness, paranoia and constant twists and turns as the hunt for the killer becomes more and more frantic.

The Next Stop is not the Destination by Basiru Jallow Pdf

“The Next Stop Is Not The Destination” is an anthology that highlights the real sinister forces that are busy stripping Africa naked in a daylight at the expense of the poorest of the poor. The poems range from rampant corruption, abject poverty, fragile political sovereignties of independent African states to moral decadence and many more. One of the poems, “The Devil Uses The Pen” is a typical Gambian-African poem that mirrors out how African politicians embark on pen-robbery; using international donor conferences to beg on behalf of the poor who never benefit from such international grants and aids. Herewith, the misuse of the pen continues to paralyze African public offices and marriage institutions in the name of eduction. Of course, this happens when many African public office holders continue to hire young married women as their personal secretaries and protocol officers. On the other hand , the book quickly addresses social issues such as recalcitrant attitudes demonstrated by many young girls, that translates into loss of their most valuable treasures, virginity. This extraordinary theme is captured in the book in a poem titled “She Wore Her Wedding Dress Before Her Wedding Day”. The aforementioned thematic areas and other burning issues are tears that wet cover this book. However, it’s apparent that the book can double one’s thinking in the redemption of our continental future, Africa.

Red, White & Royal Blue by Casey McQuiston Pdf

* Instant NEW YORK TIMES and USA TODAY bestseller * * GOODREADS CHOICE AWARD WINNER for BEST DEBUT and BEST ROMANCE of 2019 * * BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR* for VOGUE, NPR, VANITY FAIR, and more! * What happens when America's First Son falls in love with the Prince of Wales? When his mother became President, Alex Claremont-Diaz was promptly cast as the American equivalent of a young royal. Handsome, charismatic, genius—his image is pure millennial-marketing gold for the White House. There's only one problem: Alex has a beef with the actual prince, Henry, across the pond. And when the tabloids get hold of a photo involving an Alex-Henry altercation, U.S./British relations take a turn for the worse. Heads of family, state, and other handlers devise a plan for damage control: staging a truce between the two rivals. What at first begins as a fake, Instragramable friendship grows deeper, and more dangerous, than either Alex or Henry could have imagined. Soon Alex finds himself hurtling into a secret romance with a surprisingly unstuffy Henry that could derail the campaign and upend two nations and begs the question: Can love save the world after all? Where do we find the courage, and the power, to be the people we are meant to be? And how can we learn to let our true colors shine through? Casey McQuiston's Red, White & Royal Blue proves: true love isn't always diplomatic. "I took this with me wherever I went and stole every second I had to read! Absorbing, hilarious, tender, sexy—this book had everything I crave. I’m jealous of all the readers out there who still get to experience Red, White & Royal Blue for the first time!" - Christina Lauren, New York Times bestselling author of The Unhoneymooners "Red, White & Royal Blue is outrageously fun. It is romantic, sexy, witty, and thrilling. I loved every second." - Taylor Jenkins Reid, New York Times bestselling author of Daisy Jones & The Six
