Antes de 1988, aos Estados competiam tratar dos assuntos relacionados com o gás canalizado (seja: gás natural, GLP, nafta, etc.), em seu território. Assim, os Estados executavam diretamente, através de empresas públicas, as atividades de comercialização - compra e venda da commodity †e de distribuição (serviço público) de gás canalizado.Com o advento da Constituição Federal de 1988, houve uma cisão na esfera do gás. Ao contrário do que ocorreu na energia elétrica, cuja competência ficou exclusiva da União, a competência da matéria gás foi dividida entre os Estados e a União.Os Estados ficaram com a responsabilidade de estabelecer regras para explorar diretamente,...
O ano de 2021 ficou marcado na história da indústria do gás natural brasileira, porquanto após alguns anos de debate no Congresso Nacional, tivemos a promulgação da Lei 14.134, de 8 de abril (Nova Lei do Gás). Nessa Obra, destacamos algumas das principais alterações na sistemática comparativamente ao diploma anterior, tal qual a adoção do regime de autorização ao invés da concessão para a realização do transporte de gás; enquadramento do gasoduto de transporte a partir de sua função; – movimentação ou conexão a fontes de suprimento; garantia de acesso a essential facilities; regras para estimular a comercialização de gás, dentre outras. Desejamos, assim, uma boa leitura e que essa Obra sirva como um ponto inicial para os anos vindouros de elaboração do arcabouço regulatório.
Widely considered the greatest genius of all time, Albert Einstein revolutionised our understanding of the cosmos with his general theory of relativity and helped to lead us into the atomic age. Yet in the final decades of his life he was also ignored by most working scientists, his ideas opposed by even his closest friends. This stunning downfall can be traced to Einstein's earliest successes and to personal qualities that were at first his best assets. Einstein's imagination and self-confidence served him well as he sought to reveal the universe's structure, but when it came to newer revelations in the field of quantum mechanics, these same traits undermined his quest for the ultimate truth. David Bodanis traces the arc of Einstein's intellectual development across his professional and personal life, showing how Einstein's confidence in his own powers of intuition proved to be both his greatest strength and his ultimate undoing. He was a fallible genius. An intimate and enlightening biography of the celebrated physicist, Einstein's Greatest Mistake reveals how much we owe Einstein today - and how much more he might have achieved if not for his all-too-human flaws.

This book belongs to the Port Economics and Global Supply Chain Management strand of the Palgrave Studies in Maritime Economics book series, commissioned by Hercules Haralambides. This book discusses the main drivers that affect the introduction and growth of short sea shipping services. It describes and analyses the main operational concepts of short sea shipping and introduces relevant administrative and strategic approaches that enable its sustainable execution. Short Sea Shipping (SSS) comprises freight and passenger mobility by waterborne transport at a limited range, without crossing an ocean. Being a direct competitor to land-based transport modes, it uses ports and inland waterways to complement traditional transportation systems, increase capacity, improve flexibility, and contribute towards the goal of sustainable mobility. The reader will be introduced to various aspects of short sea shipping including benefits and shortfalls, relevant regulations and policies, and the applicability of short sea services within a given case or scenario.

Then Strand found me again. Now my new life hangs in the balance. Doctor Shepherd isn't done with his little experiment, and he wants me back, alive. When Strand hunters rip me away from everything good I fought so hard for, something inside me snaps.
