Medusa, the Gorgon, is free—temporarily. Penned up in Tartarus, the gods—Zeus and Hera—show her mercy. Medusa is given two weeks in which to track down their wayward daughter, Eris. Transformed into a beautiful young woman, Medusa is given only one warning: not to use her powers of transforming those to stone. She agrees and adopts the name Meddy Gorgonne. In a stroke of chance, she finds lodgings with the Goldstein’s, Sam and Trudy, and tries to figure out how modern Portland works. Cars, showers, television—all are mysteries to her at first, although she adapts. Meddy is somewhat naïve about life and especially about love, as she slowly falls for Sam, a teen who is suffering from Usher’s Syndrome, a disease that will blind and deafen him in time. What is more troubling to Meddy is that her powers of turning people to stone have returned, and she is at a loss as to why. With the police slowly closing in and time running out on how to get Eris to return to Olympus, Meddy discovers that sometimes old is new, and that time-worn traditions can surmount modernity. But will they be enough for her to stay with Sam, or will she be forced to return to Tartarus for eternity?

An ex-PI looks into the world of corruption within the insurance industry. She peeks the insider views of her local and state government by her claims. The structure of this layman did not set well with the upper elite. The lesson she learns cripples her interracial marriage and sets a wall of fire against her and her White husband. This PI learns the meaning of "the blue flu," a well-established phrase that the police use within their ranks. It is a shield of closed mouths that forgets proper procedure in any case. It is a shield of cover-up that excludes the public when corruption is found. This scandal goes deep and this interracial couple suffers for opening the floodgates to political chaos. I trust the public will be educated in the process of filing insurance claims. I trust that interracial couples will be treated with respect in their dealings with insurance issues and not held back because of their skin color or preference of the one they choose to love. A true story of faith, bias, and blackballing.

When I was 13 years old I witnessed an accident that would change my life forever (well I thought I saw an accident). I was walking towards a grocery store near my home, in Jamaica, when I saw a truck smashed into the cook house killing many people. Well, as you know, I was only 13 years old, I got very hysterical, and I ran home screaming because of what I had just witnessed, while trying to explain to my mother what I saw. Once my mother could understand all that I was trying to explain to her about the accident, my mother and I went back to the Cook House to see what had happened with regard to this accident. However, when we got to the Cook House, where I had seen the accident happened, we found that everything was okay everything was in place - and there were no sign of an accident, nor had anyone died.

The Manual of Tests and Criteria contains criteria, test methods and procedures to be used for classification of dangerous goods according to the provisions of Parts 2 and 3 of the United Nations Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods, Model Regulations, as well as of chemicals presenting physical hazards according to the Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals (GHS). As a consequence, it supplements also national or international regulations which are derived from the United Nations Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods or the GHS. At its ninth session (7 December 2018), the Committee adopted a set of amendments to the sixth revised edition of the Manual as amended by Amendment 1. This seventh revised edition takes account of these amendments. In addition, noting that the work to facilitate the use of the Manual in the context of the GHS had been completed, the Committee considered that the reference to the "Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods" in the title of the Manual was no longer appropriate, and decided that from now on, the Manual should be entitled "Manual of Tests and Criteria".
