Save the Bay has a new interactive site for you to pledge actions that can help clean up and keep safe San Francisco Bay and estuaries. They have a list of site that will take pharmaceutical waste like that expired bottle of aspirin, to pet medications, to your prescription meds. Some of the sites take other household hazardous waste as well. Whether or not you are in the Bay Area, take time to protect your local ground water, lakes, streams, rivers, and wetlands. ground water, pharmaceuticals, safe disposal

* look up rain report.
A very dry month, with some rain here at the very tail end. Total reservoir system is at 72% capacity. However the Rainfall and Reservoir status report, last updated March 10th, gives Steven Creek Reservoir at 87.8%. It appears that the Lexington Reservoir at 39.2% capacity skews the total average down, as it has the third largest capacity in the system. It has over six times greater capacity than Stevens Creek reservoir.
0.21 in / 0.54 cm was recorded at Moffett Field over the month of March.
Snippets from the email report follow:

For me, this seemed worthy of a skim but not much more. I took notes on some of the outlined process concepts. In brief, Roam has taken the list of the “6 Wsâ€â€”a slightly different list of “Who what where…â€â€”and mapped those to diagram types. EG: for who or what, you are drawing a portrait; for when, a timeline. He presents five different aspects one should consider in a diagram. EG: are you showing a change or how things are at the moment?. This systematic process of reflection before one begins drawing a diagram is appears quite useful.
He notes that there are many different comfort levels on using diagrams, and so if you aren’t used to simple diagrams in you meetings and communications, he has extensive explanations on how the process will enhance communication and help address the challenge of solving problems.
