TGIF! Weekly Water News Summary 3 - 9 November 2018

Ken Lanfear took this photo of present and former AWRA staffers.

Happy and sad time at the AWRA meeting in Baltimore. Executive Vice President Ken Reid will be retiring after 37 years at the helm. He's seated next to spouse Patricia Reid, who has somehow maintained her sanity and good humor after being our conference goddess. She will also be leaving, as will the inimitable Jacque Towner (third from left in the back) who herds cats as our office manager.

TGIF! Weekly Water News Summary, 27 October - 2 November 2018

BottleWell, I'm not in Honduras this Friday but in Baltimore - at the AWRA Annual Water Resources Conference.

At the Marriott Inner Harbor at Camden Yards Hotel I was greeted by this bottle of Lifewtr, a premium bottled water by Pepsi. Only $5.

Not the kind of thing you probably want to market to water professionals. They prefer Fiji. [Note: for my true feelings about bottled water, see today's quote at the bottom of this page. I suspect many of my colleagues would feel the same way.]

TGIF! Weekly Water News Summary 22 - 28 September 2018

500-mile-around-nyI have started another 'Water Daily' newsletter using Jim Tully's My Water Daily platform.

This newsletter covers the Northeast USA with the hashtag  I set it up by creating a New York newsletter that draws from sources within 500 miles of New York City. That should cover NY, NJ, New England, PA, DE, OH, VA, MD, WV and parts of NC and Canada. So enjoy!

We also have two new water faculty positions in Hydrogeology and Remote Sensing of Water. Check these two links: https://bit.ly/2Qfa5aG and https://bit.ly/2R7iC0M. The hydrogeology is not my position.
