Long after the great Michigan fires of 1881 have become cold ash, Gabrio's fated battle finally begins. Gabrio is a Beast Blood, transforming into a wolf by the light of the moon. He has found his lifemate, Esmeralda, and together they have discovered a measure of peace, a respite from the horrors of past. Living in modern-day Michigan, they hide their identities carefully from mortals and the dangers of half-breeds. But Gabrio's blood is bound to destiny. An ancient prophecy stirs the winds of fate around them, bringing signs of death and a blood moon. A Blood Taster, under oath to seek out the wicked in mortals, is now charged with doing the same among Beast Bloods and in so doing uncovers a truer sin that walks the earth, longing to take revenge against the punishment of God and using Gabrio and Esmeralda to do so. As the couple is drawn into a war between the angelic warriors of heaven and the demons of hell, they soon realize that they are destined to play a major role in the outcome of the conflict and that the prophecy heralds the coming of the ultimate power, known as the Hybrid.From the woods of Michigan to the emerald-green highlands of Scotland, this second volume of the Beast Blood series follows two supernatural creatures as they stand witness to an apocalyptic battle between good and evil.

Duas histórias correm paralelas, ambas com 11 capítulos numerados de 1 a 11. Numa, dois amigos conversam pelo telefone sobre a dificuldade de o protagonista publicar seus romances. Eugênio Clarão escreveu muitas histórias, "quase tanto quanto Balzac", ele diz a seu amigo Josué. Ao longo das conversas descobrimos que Josué vem intermediando a relação de Eugênio com editoras do Brasil e da Inglaterra, visando a publicação dos romances. Somos brindados com pareceres de avaliadores diversos, todos elogiando a qualidade literária dos textos mas, ao final, não recomendando a publicação pelas editoras. Um porque julga que o romance, apesar do valor literário, é "hermético"; outro critica sua linguagem "rebuscada", outro considera a história pouco atraente para o grande público etc.. Por meio dos pareceres entramos no mundo literário de Eugênio, sua inventividade e abertura, em tudo antípodas de sua reclusão num quarto soturno no interior do Brasil. A história tem um final surpreendente, porque só ali descobrimos que foi alinhavada pela traição, A história paralela também traz um romancista que nunca publicou seus muitos romances, algo que descobrimos apenas ao final. Ao contrário da outra história, tem um narrador, que conta o intenso encontro casual entre o personagem principal (Marco Antônio Pontual) e a filha de um amigo de infância (Alma Flor). Provocado por um acidente automobilístico numa cidade do interior do Brasil, o encontro traz à memória dos dois fragmentos de vida que eles não sabiam que compartilhavam, coisas que, a custo, Alma Flor consegue arrancar à alma dilacerada de Marco Antônio no restaurante para onde se dirigem depois de se desvencilharem da burocracia policial do pós-acidente. Exercício de rigor literário do narrador, que se coloca do ponto de vista de Marco Antônio e vive suas angústias, travas, desejos e recalques enquanto Alma Flor se abre para ele, é uma história de doação, generosidade e frustração, como algumas que Eugênio Clarão talvez tenha escrito. Ao final não sabemos qual dos dois escreveu qual história, por isso a imagem das mãos de Escher, uma desenhando a outra. A arte como ilusão, ou como ilusionismo. Ou como uma representação infiel, mas misteriosa e sedutora, da vida.

THIS CASEBOOK contains a selection of U. S. Court of Appeals decisions that analyze and discuss issues stemming from rate and tariff rulings of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission. * * * The Federal Power Act, 16 U.S.C. §§ 791a et seq., charges the [Federal Energy Regulatory] Commission with regulating "the transmission of electric energy" and "the sale of electric energy at wholesale" in interstate commerce, id. § 824(b)(1). In exercising that authority, the Commission must ensure that "[a]ll rates and charges" for the "transmission or sale of electric energy subject to" its jurisdiction are "just and reasonable," and that no public utility's rates are unduly discriminatory or preferential. Id. § 824d(a), (b); see NRG Power Mktg., LLC v. Maine Pub. Utils. Comm'n, 558 U.S. 165, 167, 130 S.Ct. 693, 175 L.Ed.2d 642 (2010). * * * To that end, the Act requires every public utility to "file with the Commission" and "keep open in convenient form and place for public inspection schedules showing all rates and charges for any transmission or sale subject to the jurisdiction of the Commission." 16 U.S.C. § 824d(c). That obligation applies whether the rates and charges are set "unilaterally by tariff" or agreed upon in individual contracts between sellers and buyers. NRG Power Mktg., 558 U.S. at 171, 130 S.Ct. 693. When a public utility seeks to change its filed rate, it must "fil[e] with the Commission... new schedules stating plainly the change or changes ... and the time when the change or changes will go into effect." 16 U.S.C. § 824d(d). ESI Energy, LLC v. FERC, 892 F. 3d 321 (DC Cir. 2018). * * * The Federal Power Act's express mandate of openness, transparency, and consistency in rates prevents discrimination, promotes fair and equal access to the utilities' services, ensures the stability and predictability of rates, and reinforces the Commission's jurisdictional authority. See Maislin Indus., U.S., Inc. v. Primary Steel, Inc., 497 U.S. 116, 130-31, 110 S.Ct. 2759, 111 L.Ed.2d 94 (1990); Consol. Edison Co. of N.Y. v. FERC, 347 F.3d 964, 969 (D.C. Cir. 2003); Consol. Edison Co. of N.Y. v. FERC, 958 F.2d 429, 432 (D.C. Cir. 1992). ESI Energy, LLC v. FERC, ibid.

WHERE IS THE ALL-POWERFUL GOD?If God is so loving and all-powerful, how come He is missing in inaction? How come He's silent to my legitimate requests?He promised that none of His shall be barren. Where is the baby?He promised that the prayer of faith will heal the sick. Why am I still sick? He promised to answer before I call. Where is the answer after calling and calling again?WHERE IS GOD? It's a question you've probably asked. It's a question Joseph has definitely asked when his reality seemed decades away from what God had promised. Thus, in five 'peaces' of transformational thoughts, Joseph hands us a compass which points us in the direction where God may be found in times like that. With lots of stories from his personal journey, Joseph writes with such simplicity and clarity that drives home the message and leaves the seeker immersed in the unwavering hope of God's reassuring promise: "I will never leave you, nor forsake you."This book is a great blessing to the body of Christ. The wealth of wisdom therein is articulated with distinct clarity. Are you waiting on God for anything? Then this book is a must read . . . you will be surely blessed.- Pastor Dr. Davies The Apostolic Church (LAWNA) UKIn "Pastor K", I have found a son, a co-labourer and a destiny helper. His good nature shines through in his writing and preaching. The subject of Waiting Compass is very relevant to us all: THE SEASON OF WAITING. The wisdom expressed in the book is profound. I warmly recommend it.- Pastor Dara Shofoluwe Area Pastor, Area 4, North East & Northern Ireland, RCCG UKThis book just answered so many questions that I have always intended to ask God when I get to heaven. Thanks P.Kols for the deep insights shared in this book. And the humour! (I can't seem to stop laughing at some of the personal stories shared in the book). I will recommend this as a must-read for every young adult before plunging head-long into the realities of the rest of their adult life. - Oluwaseyi Popoola Thompson Businesses Management Student, National Open University of NigeriaI read Waiting Compass as a divine instruction. I found myself ranting and complaining about how I felt like God has turned His back at me when I heard a voice in my heart asking me, "Have you read Waiting Compass?" Right there in the restroom, I picked up my phone and started reading the book (which I'd gotten as a free gift from the author months earlier). The very first sentence got my attention and within an hour, I finished the whole book at one sitting, and picked the lessons God has for me in it. I feel there is a need for everyone to own and read this book. What got me the most was where the author said "Hannah needed a child, but God needed a prophet." That statement put a lot of things in perspective for me. As you read, get ready to highlight or screenshot the different shades of insight that you will encounter. And oh! The poem at the end of the book says it all. God bless you, Joseph, and inspire you to write more books that will bring people closer to God than ever before.- Jimi Kate CEO, The CymehouseI read Waiting Compass at a go because, like all of Joseph's books, until you finish reading it, you won't want to drop it. Joseph's books have been a tremendous blessing to me. I look forward to that day when we will see physically and I will give him a big hug for allowing himself to be used by God to bring positive impact on my life.- Oluwasegun Durosinmi Banking and Finance Student, Lagos State University
