<P>Hello all --</P>
<P>I have some good news, bad news and more good news to share with you. I am getting married and will be moving to Ohio at the end of May. That's my good news. The sad news is that I'll be leaving a wonderful job and a great group of coworkers. The more good news is that this could all be happy news for you or someone you think might be interested in my job! We're restructuring it a bit; David Cameron, whom many of you know, will be taking over the media relations role in our office, and we're hiring a publications manager to edit our two magazines and produce all our other publications. That job description is below. Please feel free to pass it on to parties you think might be interested.</P>
<P>I hope to see you at our April meeting, but if I don't, I wish you all the best. Thanks!</P>
