is this me this voice these words that lead somewhere to a place where everything makes sense where peace exists where we find god in the world all around us and that question of what does it all mean loses significance when we let go and just live when we rise and retreat with the moon and the tide and we fly unfettered leave grief behind I’m there now my friends with just enough of me still tethered to the earth to share these thoughts

Rage, shake your fist and shout at the devil! The struggle to survive continues amid the horrors of an undead world! In this fourth installment in the Dead Tide Series there are survivors who refuse to give up and die: Bronte; Janicea; Mills; Trish; Johnny; Natalie; Jacobs and many others. The problems they face, besides defeating the undead, are growing. Not everyone wants to play nice or work together. Dark agendas and foul deeds abound in the open-aired tomb that our earth has become...
Harmony from a dark heartBetween March and May The Harmattan season blows hot and dry A continental trade wind that sweeps From the Sahara to the Gulf of Guinea And somewhere south of Ancient Khartoum Without wings, I fly south High above the dusty road Beside the White Nile And I glide While the percussive beat of drums Is met by chords that float Like me And if I told you The truth That I am hypnotized By the dust plume The particulate plumage Left behind When I couldn’t fly (completed on a Sunday, the sixteenth day of June, 2024)
Just north of Khartoum adrift, for now one song follows another one moment indistinguishable from the next beyond the movements the pauses of my fingers on the keyboard it is a bliss not knowing what comes next there are so many words and songs to occupy me if my words run out in my old age I drift and remember when I ran where I walked the trees I climbed the people I loved and it’s all one life a huge picture not just a memory but a river that keeps moving and I haven’t found the end not yet maybe it’s circling around to a place where I’ll begin again (completed on a Sunday, the fifth day of May, 2024)
Is Anyone Safe In This New World of Consumerism? The group, including the cop, Talaski, and the firefighter, Mills, is stranded on the old fishing pier that once was the Skyway Bridge. To the northeast, Bronte’s followers fight to the death for Tanglewood Island. Further inland the soldier, Jacobs, befriends a group of kids and finds them a haven at a small walled house they aptly dub the Alamo. Meanwhile, President Foster’s wife, Julie, convinces a group of soldiers to take her back to her husband. Find out, too, what trouble Dead-Eye Johnny jumped into when he leapt off the Skyway and fell onto a cruise ship! Others like Trish and Natalie face terrible odds on their own. Behind all of it is a shadowy corporation, a runaway scientist and a cut-throat mobster, all determined to secure what is best for themselves! Humanity is in its death throes and still the survivors of the apocalypse struggle with and embrace friendship, love, lust, envy, hate, rage and cruelty beyond measure. The grueling task of finding a safe haven and securing supplies is far more difficult than it should be simply due to human nature. For the privileged, protected elite, that task has been a burden shouldered by others as they wait in bunkers, or take the sun on the decks of yachts. The average survivor does what he or she has to, or what they can live with to survive. Until now. Witness the best and the worst that humanity has to offer as the dead tide surges, and what is left of civilization sinks into a morass of madness.
As the tide goes out The lambent moon A nimbus of light through An opaque bank of cloud To a symphony of night Reflected in a shroud Of water stretching to the horizon As the waves gently break Around my ankles Silty sand beneath my toes A peaceful sinking sensation In the dark beyond as I close My eyes
This book introduces key concepts in modeling and risk assessments of vapor intrusion, a process by which the subsurface volatile contaminants migrate into the building of concern. Soil vapor intrusion is the major exposure pathway for building occupants to chemicals from the subsurface, and its risk assessments determine the criteria of volatile contaminants in soil/groundwater in brownfield redevelopment. The chapters feature the recent advances in vapor intrusion studies and practices, including analytical and numerical modeling of vapor intrusion, statistical findings of United States Environmental Protection Agency’s Vapor Intrusion Database and Petroleum Vapor Intrusion Databases, the challenges of preferential pathways, and the application of building pressure cycling methods, and field practices of vapor intrusion risk assessments at developed contaminated sites and in brownfield redevelopment. This volume also summarizes the advantages and limits of current applications in vapor intrusion risk assessment, laying the groundwork for future research of better understanding in risk characterization of soil vapor intrusion using models. Written by experts in this field, Vapor Intrusion Simulations and Risk Assessments will serve as an invaluable reference for researchers, regulators, and practitioners, who are interested in perceiving the basic knowledge and current advances in risk assessments of soil vapor intrusion.
Fundamentals of Environmental Site Assessment and Remediation examines all aspects of environmental site assessment and remediation and outlines the interdisciplinary skills needed to work in the field. It provides a comprehensive overview for students, environmental professionals, and real estate developers, and includes the latest environmental regulations, environmental site assessment and remediation practices, and industry standards. It examines pollution sources and the related impacts on drinking water supplies, the associated health risks, and how to protect water resources. The monitoring of surface water, groundwater, and soil is explained, as well as vapor intrusion. It will include several practical case studies throughout. Features Includes the latest and best practices for environmental site assessment and remediation procedures. Presents a multidisciplinary approach, including environmental forensics, nanotechnology, microbiology (DNA technology) and isotopes, etc. Examines various pollutants and their related impacts on drinking water supplies, the associated health risks, and how to protect water resources. Presents the best practices for the monitoring of surface water, groundwater, and soil. Covers the latest environmental regulations and industry standards.
