Natural Gas: Customers and Consuming Industry is the 3rd volume in a series of textbooks - following Natural Gas: Exploration and Properties (1st volume) as well as Natural Gas: Operations and Transport (2nd volume), which is going to be continued with Natural Gas: Economics and Environment (4th volume). The aim of this series is to provide a student with the basic technical and commercial tools required when following the flow of gas from the reservoir to the burner tip. Volume 3 is meant to accompany the reader along the flow of gas from the point of delivery to the burner tip and concludes with the physical flow of gas at the point of consumption. This volume consists of four chapters commencing with chapter 13, which deals with basic technical aspects of gas marketing, especially gas metering, storage and distribution. Chapter 14 provides a description of the various gas markets for residential, commercial and industrial customers (including a brief description of natural gas vehicles and fuel cell technology), while concluding with an introduction to natural gas trading and hedging instruments. Chapter 15 and 16 relate to the role of natural gas in two key gas-consuming industries in connection with power generation and the use of natural gas as a feedstock for the petrochemical industry.

Clarinda and Henry tells the story of the Australian Father of Federation, Sir Henry Parkes, and his wife, Clarinda. It is a story of their struggles in England in the early 1800s, their hazardous journey to Sydney on an emigrant ship and their lives as early settlers in Sydney and the Blue Mountains. It is a tale of success, but also of hardship and endurance. While it tells the story of Henry Parkes'spolitical life, it has a large focus on his wife, Clarinda, a woman whose story was hidden behind her renowned husband's, but who, like so many others of her era, helped shape the Australia we know today.

Getting sucked into a whirlpool, sleeping in monster-infested woods, and battling psycho sea-nymphs was not how Hailey planned to spend her first year of high school. But when you're the only Zeus in the world, life tends to get a bit complicated. The Great Battle saw the world changed forever when humans killed the gods and absorbed their powers. One power was coveted above all others: Zeus's. Thirteen-year-old Hailey Woods is the first Zeus in over a century. Unlike everyone else, she hates her powers because of an ancient prophecy that claims a Zeus will have to save the world someday. Hailey doesn't want to save the world. She wants to be a normal teenager, whose biggest dilemma in life is deciding what to eat for lunch, rather than training to become the ultimate weapon. Poseidon's Academy, an underwater palace where her powers don't work, was meant to give her that opportunity. But when she arrives, she discovers the sea-nymphs living there are plotting to resurrect the gods, and Hailey must find a way to stop them before they can enact the prophecy. So much for normal!
