Описание: The totality of a solar eclipse lasts only a few short minutes. That's more than enough time for an apocalypse to erupt. Almost eighteen years have passed since the Eclipse changed the Earth forever, and Sebastian Za'in rose from the chaos and seized control, imposing his order on the broken planet. In a world ruled by fear and superstition, where all gods have perished, there is no one that can stand up to Za'in, the man rumored to be one of the Nephilim-hybrid offspring of Angel and Man. In a few short months, another Eclipse will occur, and while there are those that expect a new natural disaster, Za'in has plans of his own . . . Completely unaware of this global turmoil, Kayla Steelryn has spent most of her life in a quiet village, longing to uncover her hidden past. When she leaves her home in search of answers, she finds herself faced with the truth about her identity, forced to choose between the two men she loves, and thrust into a conflict where she alone has the power to stop an event more disastrous than the end of the world.

Angel's got a voice to die for. Literally. Her vocals are so powerful, everyone who hears them is in danger of immediately dropping dead. Ironically, singing is her one, and only, passion.
Enter the world of Bostonian teen Angelica Brown: budding pop star and descendant of an immortal race of sun-loving blood drinkers known as Shimshana (the ancient ancestors of vampires). Defying her parents' traditions of higher education, Angel plans to ditch high school so she can sign a record deal and make a Top 10 pop tune with her BFFs.
She's got a shot at superstardom, but she's also maturing into a full-grown Shimshana complete with fearsome power and insatiable bloodlust. That puts her girl group, their mysterious producer and her hunky new blood donor all in danger of becoming Angel's unwitting victims.
To top it off, she must prove her worthiness to live by passing the tests in her Mah --the mandatory coming-out-party for new-born immortals. It is there that the ancient and powerful Council may decide she's too dangerous to be allowed to exist, at which point any Council member--including her mom--will be assigned to destroy her.
Presenting a new spin on the vampire genre, Blood To Blood skillfully delivers plot twists that beg the questions: Will Angel quickly learn to control her new abilities and survive her Mah ? Or will her killer instincts bring her promising career, and her life, to an end? Order your copy of Blood To Blood now
Описание: The signing of the Comprehensive Peace Agreement in 2006 and Constituent Assembly elections in 2008 have paved the way for political and economic reform in Nepal. Indeed, the 2009 Investment Climate Assessment (ICA) shows that Nepal’s private sector is starting to reap some dividend from the cessation of armed conflict in terms of employment generation, rebounding tourism, increased tax collection, as well as less complex business regulations and procedures to obtain permits. However, Nepal’s private sector (already plagued with various market failures) continues to suffer from the consequences of a decade of armed conflict and civil unrest. Poor infrastructure, particularly for transportation and energy, inadequate labor skills and continuous labor unrest, as well as inefficient and unstable credit markets, exacerbate the damage that continued political instability has had on the investment climate. Together political instability and poor infrastructure pose the two greatest challenges to Nepal’s investment climate and growth in the private sector. The effects of these challenges on business confidence and economic performance are visible and costly: productions costs are high, business operations and trade are often disrupted, and competitiveness is declining. These structural problems cause low levels of savings and investment resulting in low job creation, which lead millions of Nepalis to seek temporary employment abroad; resulting in remittance flows that are mainly channeled to consumption and asset bubbles. This inflates prices and increases costs to the productive job-creating sector, which loses competitiveness and export markets, prolonging the cycle of mediocre and jobless growth at home. In order for Nepal to kick-start private sector-led growth in Nepal, it has to leverage its potential particularly through strengthening trade with China and India, developing its hydropower resources, and adopting policies to target growth in key sectors such as tourism. Improving Nepal’s investment climate and strengthening the private sector will require government initiative to solve many challenges as well as public-private dialogue and partnerships to tackle larger challenges to be addressed over the medium and long-term. The Nepal Investment Climate Assessment (ICA) assesses dimensions of the investment climate that shape the opportunities for investments, employment and growth of private firms and provides recommendations to support private sector development. The Nepal ICA is based on three main surveys: an Enterprise Survey, an Employee Survey, and a Survey of Informal Enterprises. The surveys capture perceptions of the main obstacles for enterprises and workers in key sectors of the economy such as services and manufacturing and provide in-depth data and analysis on issues such as employment, policies and regulations, regional trade, and performance. An advantage of the enterprise surveys is that similar surveys have been conducted in many other countries. This allows comparisons of data on the investment climate with countries in the region and similar countries from other regions. The findings and recommendations of this Nepal ICA will be of interest to the Nepalese government and policy makers, development partners, Nepalese business associations, and researchers on private sector development and investment climate issues in Nepal and the South Asia region.
