half-a-second a lap faster than Vettel, the
balance of power would shift rapidly.
"That would be really nice," laughs
Ricciardo, who's acutely aware of the
suggestion he's there as a number two,
but knows he has the means, motive and
opportunity to change that perception. "To
be honest, one of the first things they told
me was that I was going to have the same
opportunities as Seb; the same car. They're
curious to see how well I can go against him.
Obviously, he's been the golden boy for a fewyears now; he was the first driver to comeup through the program, but now I'm thesecond one. They're just as excited for meto get there as they were for him. Everyoneis curious, and for that reason I'm surewe'll get a fair playing field to battle it out."The bottom line is that irrespective ofthe relative experience of a team's twodrivers, what matters is performance. Theideal scenario for any team is to have onedriver consistently a tiny fraction behindthe other, but still able to make a goodtechnical contribution to the team as wellas being a face that fits its corporateneeds. He will be there to score well andwin the constructors' title and take pointsoff the opposition. The trouble is, that'sextremely difficult to achieve.
McLaren has a history of disruptivepartnerships, with its recent ill-starredHamilton/Alonso alliance in some ways areprise of the Prost/Ayrton Senna troublesof 1988-' 89. But team principal MartinWhitmarsh insists the team's policy remainsunchanged. To him, it really is a question ofsigning the best two drivers available.
"It's not that complicated actually. We
pick the drivers who we think are going to
help us win races and championships," says
Whitmarsh. "There are a number of factors;
you have to have drivers that are naturally
very quick, they have got to be good racers,
intelligent, work with their engineers, be
team players, read what is going on during
a race and give that information to the
team. So you look for all of those things.
"You can put a weighting on them, butwe don't try to take the view that wemust have one older and one younger. It'ssimple – we just try and have the best twodrivers that are available to us to enableus to go out there and win, and we'vebeen doing that for quite a few years."That said, with McLaren perenniallyfailing to win titles despite regularlywinning races, it's clear that its rareDrivers' Championship successes in recenttimes have been tied to having a clearleader. When Hamilton was crowned in2008, the unspectacular HeikkiKovalainen was his teammate. Its previoustwo drivers' titles came in 1998-' 89, whenDavid Coulthard provided capable backupto Mika Hakkinen. Coincidence? Surely not.Any change in lineup is a step into theunknown to some degree. In Ferrari's case, ithas plenty of experience of Raikkonen, bothfrom running him in 2007-'09 and throughrecently-signed ex-Lotus technical directorJames Allison. It's now in its fourth season ofrunning Alonso, while engineering directorPat Fry worked for McLaren during thetroubles of '07. And given that Raikkonen'sprodigious talent is offset by not having thesame work ethic as Alonso, could it be thathe is being seen as a strong support act?Ferrari cannot be certain what willhappen. By putting two reactivechemicals together and lighting the bluetouch-paper, it has taken a high-risk,high-reward gamble. Will it pay off?
(TOP) Lewis Hamilton
and Nico Rosberg are
"two great drivers
working in harmony,"
according to Mercedes
GP team principal
Ross Brawn. (ABOVE)
Raikkonen leads
Alonso at this year's
Monaco GP – probably
not the scenario Alonso
will be hoping for
when they're paired
at Ferrari in 2013.

Well as I think I have indicated it's been all about Egypt lately in my classroom. The kids are all doing projects about Ancient Egypt. They are all reading literature circle books about some aspect of Ancient Egypt. The groups just meet once a week but the kids are enjoying reading what others are reading. The groups give everyone an opportunity to share their thoughts about the books. Most of the kids are also reading other books at the same time as well.
Last year my grade sevens begged for lit circles and the grade sixes at the time were doing a novel study with our resource teacher so I decided that lit circles could be a grade seven activity. Our teacher librarian and I were able to find sufficient books on an Egypt theme in the school so that there are a couple of extra copies if kids finish early but this time they seem happy to set their reading goals and stay together as groups. I think all the novels will be finished Friday so we can do a switch then. I may later have more lit circles not on any particular theme.
The kids do agree that the novels are giving them another look in a different way about what they are studying. I think lit circles are also good in that forces kids into books they might not normally read. And for the most part they are enjoying all the books. Some of them at first appeared a bit old and perhaps a little dated (for instance, The Egypt Game by Zilpha Keatley Snyder), but the kids are enjoying them regardless. It's also interesting because my kids weren't familiar with the story of Moses that is the basis of another book, The Pharoah's Daughter. This book is not an easy read so that it is good I have some rather good readers.
A real bonus for the research was a website I literally stumbled upon when I was doing research for my french unit. The Canadian Museum of Civilization has an online Mysteries of Egypt Exhibit with great additional web resources.
Neither Alanna nor myself had yet done a close scrutiny of their notes for their projects so I decided Thursday to get them to write Ten Amazing Facts about whatever they were studying e.g. pyramids, Gods and Goddesses, ancient Egyptian geography etc. For the most part it seems like they have learned quite a bit. They are going to change these into mini books and they can be part of their multimedia presentations. Needless to say poster board and plasticine have been secured as well. My grade sixes last year were incredibly creative so that I am curious to see what they and their other classmates are going to come up with this time. Stay tuned!

It's rare for me to even consider skipping off work on a weekday.
Running Three Sheets is a very busy full-time job, anemia and there's invariably something that needs to get done. The level of guilt triggered by playing hooky on a weekday is extreme.
But passing up an opportunity to get out on the water Friday would have been verging on insanity. Turning down a chance to travel on a magnificent 80-year-old yacht with its own chef, decease on an almost cloudless day warm enough for July, health would have suggested I needed to have my head examined.
So responsibility got relegated to the back burner, where it belonged. I happily accepted an offer from Diane VanDerbeek to sail with her on Olympus, her 80-year-old, 97-foot fantail yacht. I'd seen a little of Olympus previously at boat shows, but most of the vessel, including the lower level and staterooms, had been closed off to the public. I was curious to see more and talk with Diane about the boat's colorful history.
Launched in 1929 and originally named Junaluska, the yacht was built for George Callendine Heck, a partner in a Wall Street investment firm, who used it to commute from his two Long Island estates to lower Manhattan. After a stint as a Navy patrol vessel during World War II (during which time its stunning brightwork was painted grey), the yacht was purchased by Washington Governor Monrad Wallgren, ostensibly as a state fisheries patrol vessel, and renamed Olympus.
In reality, Olympus was the governor's personal yacht and was frequently used to entertain his good friend, President Harry Truman. After the Seattle Post-Intelligencer (my previous employer) revealed that the governor used more than $100,000 in Department of Fisheries funds to refurbish the yacht, Wallgren, not surprisingly, lost his 1948 bid for reelection.
Diane and her late husband John VanDerbeek bought Olympus in 1985. The yacht is now used for private trips and charters, and has accommodated celebrities such as Robin Williams, Hilary Swank and Candice Bergen. It's a regular fixture during Seattle's Opening Day festivities and each December, carries children and adults with disabilities on a cruise to see boats lit up for the holiday season.
Diane showed me around the boat, taking me through its four staterooms, whose walls hold antique photos and framed vintage bathing suits. We walked through the main salon, with its wing chairs and sectional sofa, and the dining room, where the table was laid out with one of a dozen sets of china aboard. Everywhere was gleaming wood, meticulously appointed furnishings.
The boat, which has won numerous awards, is clearly loved. That much is obvious not just from its bristol condition, but also by the fact that the VanDerbeeks had a custom boathouse built for it on Lake Union 10 years ago.
On Friday, Olympus was headed to Poulsbo for a Classic Yacht Association rendezvous. I met Diane at the boathouse and we departed in the early afternoon, along with a friend of Diane's and four crew members, including the boat's captain and its chef. Champagne was served as we headed toward the ship canal, the three of us sitting on deck chairs on the bow. Work? What work?
We waited for more than two hours to get through the locks, but no one was complaining. Seated around a table on the aft fantail, we were served a three-course lunch that started with a chowder made from lobster stock, heavy cream and oysters marinated in white wine and cognac, served with fresh, homemade bread and butter.
Next was a carefully conceived and arranged main course: herb salad on baby greens with blood oranges in a citrus vinaigrette, pheasant breast seared with white truffle oil and coated with rose peppercorns and herbes de provence, and scallops coated with a blend of white truffle oil (the meal's featured ingredient), yuzu vinegar, parsley and coarse red salt resting atop a mix of crème fraiche, pico de gallo and avocado. It was almost too pretty to eat.
And then dessert—a cheesecake with walnut cookie crust, three types of dried cherries, a mix of Scharffen Berger-Ghiardelli chocolate and a caramel sauce. Lunch for me is usually a salad. Combined with the wine, the meal was enough to send me into a blissful food coma for the remainder of the afternoon. Instead, we relocated to the bow and settled into our deck chairs, taking in the scenery as the boat wound through breathtaking Agate Pass and chatting about everything from divorce to rowing.
One of the best things about launching Three Sheets Northwest is the people we've met: boaters who have told us their stories, invited us aboard, ate and drank and shared their love of being on the water with us. Traveling on Olympus, experiencing a few hours on a piece of living Northwest history, was a treat and a privilege.
The forecast for today and into the weekend calls for temperatures in the high 50s. Last night felt like the first real fall evening, and Friday's sunshine and warmth is already fading into memory. Summer, it seems, is over. There will be plenty of time over the upcoming months to hole up in my office, writing and working on Three Sheets.
Could I have gotten more work done last week? Sure. Would it have been a mistake to stay home Friday to get it done? Absolutely.

Figure 1. NOAA tsunami propagation map
An 8.0 magnitude earthquake struck 125 miles south of Samoa and American Samoa on Tuesday, grip
September 29, buy at 10:48:11 am. The earthquake probably occurred as a normal fault rupture, resulting in multiple tsunami waves, four of them about 15 to 20 feet high (Fig. 1). The West Coast is vulnerable any time a tsunami is generated in the Pacific Ocean. In this instance, the tsunami waves did reach the American coastline, strikingCalifornia, Oregon and Washington, however, the height of the waves was less than 2 feet (the highest observed height was 1.38 feet in Crescent City, California). In Washington State, La Push reported a wave of 0.46 feet.
When a large earthquake is generated in the Pacific Ocean, NOAA's Pacific Tsunami Warning Center (PTWC) and West Coast and Alaska Tsunami Warning Center (WC/ATWC) monitor the situation, producing Tsunami Warning, Watches, Advisories, and Information Statements (seehttp://wcatwc.arh.noaa.gov/Products/msgdefs.htm for definitions). Messages for Alaska, British Columbia, Washington, Oregon, and California come from WC/ATWC; PTWC issues messages for most of the rest of the Pacific Basin. A Tsunami Warning is the highest tsunami alert, indicating that a destructive tsunami, if generated, could be only a few hours travel time from the area under a warning. This is initially based on seismic information to give early warning, but is followed up by other sources of evidence, such as sea-level measurements at tide gauges or DART buoys (pressure recorders) and by numerical modeling.
The Department of Natural Resources, Division of Geology and Earth Resources (DGER) has been working closely with the Washington Emergency Management Division to monitor the tsunami danger to Washington State. As of this morning, a Tsunami Advisory has been cancelled. Washington is vulnerable to tsunamis, including one generated right off our coast by a Cascadia subduction zone earthquake. A tsunamigenic earthquake elsewhere in the Pacific also has the potential to send a destructive wave onto our coastline. DGER actively studies and maps tsunami inundation zones (accessed through our interactive map site and tsunami evacuation brochures) along our coastline and makes sure tsunami evacuation routes are safe and effective in times of disaster. DGER also publishes TsuInfo Alert, a bimonthly newsletter that links scientists, emergency responders, and community planners to the latest tsunami research.

Summer might be over, pill
but the fishing definitely isn't.
Anglers are flocking to the upper Columbia River and its tributaries to catch hatchery-reared steelhead, patient and will soon be able to fish for blackmouth, rubella
chum and sturgeon in various areas. And five ocean beaches are tentatively scheduled to open in mid-October for the first razor-clam dig of the season.
The Washington Department of Fisheries and Wildlife offers the following breakdown of various fishing and razor clamming opportunities around the state.
North Puget Sound
Fishing for coho salmon has improved in Puget Sound, and saltwater anglers should continue to do well over the next couple weeks as the run pushes into the region's rivers and streams.
"Coho fishing has been pretty good recently in North Sound," said Steve Thiesfeld, a fish biologist with WDFW. "Anglers could have a couple more weeks of decent fishing before we start to see a transition in the marine areas from coho to blackmouth and chum salmon."
Thiesfeld said anglers looking to hook ocean coho should try fishing Point No Point, Jefferson Head, Possession Bar and Shipwreck. Fishing regulations for those areas and other waters of marine areas 9 (Admiralty Inlet) and 10 (Seattle/Bremerton) change in October. Beginning Oct. 1, anglers fishing Marine Area 9 will have a daily limit of two salmon but must release all chinook. Those fishing Marine Area 10 will have a two-salmon daily limit but must release wild chinook.
Anglers looking to get an early start on the region's blackmouth season might also want to head to Marine Area 10, Thiesfeld said. Another option for blackmouth anglers is Marine Area 7 (San Juan Islands), where starting Oct. 1, anglers can keep one chinook as part of a two-salmon daily limit.
Thiesfeld reminds anglers that as of Oct. 1, only portions of marine areas 8-1 (Deception Pass, Hope Island and Skagit Bay) and 8-2 (Port Susan and Port Gardner) will be open for salmon fishing. Salmon fishing in Marine Area 8-1 will be restricted to the Oak Harbor area, west of a line from Forbes Point to Blowers Bluff. Anglers fishing Oak Harbor have a daily limit of two coho only.
In Marine Area 8-2, salmon fishing will be limited to the south end of the area, south of a line from Randall Point to the south end of the Everett Naval Station dock. Anglers in that area have a two salmon daily limit, but must release chinook.
Meanwhile, crabbing is closed after Sept. 30 in Marine Area 7, the only area in the region currently open for crab. The region's other marine areas are already closed for a catch assessment. See WDFW's sport crabbing website for additional information.
Several rivers are open for salmon, including the Snohomish, where there have been several reports of anglers hooking some bright coho salmon. Anglers fishing the Snohomish have a daily limit of two salmon, plus two additional pink salmon, but must release chinook.
Elsewhere, Lake Sammamish is open for salmon fishing, with a daily limit of four salmon; up to two chinook may be retained. All sockeye must be released and fishing is closed within 100 yards of the mouth of Issaquah Creek.
Lake Washington also is open for salmon. Anglers are allowed four coho per day (minimum size 12 inches) from waters north of the Highway 520 Bridge and east of the Montlake Bridge.
Before heading out, anglers should check the rules and regulations for all freshwater and saltwater fisheries in WDFW's Fishing in Washington pamphlet ( http://wdfw.wa.gov/fish/regs/fishregs.htm ).
South Sound/Olympic Peninsula
With salmon moving from the coast to bays and rivers, anglers have some new options to consider in the region — or they might want to trade in their fishing rods for clam shovels. The first razor clam dig of the fall season is tentatively scheduled in mid-October, pending results of tests to determine if the clams are safe to eat.
If tests are favorable, WDFW will proceed with evening razor clam digs at Long Beach, Twin Harbors, Copalis and Mocrocks, as well as Kalaloch Beach, which is scheduled to open for clam digging for the first time since spring 2007.
Tentative opening dates and evening low tides in October are:
- Friday, Oct. 16 (5:50 p.m. -0.5 ft.) at Long Beach, Twin Harbors and Copalis
- Saturday, Oct. 17 (6:38 p.m. -0.8 ft.) at Long Beach, Twin Harbors, Copalis, Mocrocks and Kalaloch
- Sunday, Oct. 18 (7:23 p.m. -1.1 ft.) at Long Beach, Twin Harbors, Copalis, Mocrocks and Kalaloch
- Monday, Oct. 19 (8:06 p.m. -1.1 ft.) at Twin Harbors
Dan Ayres, WDFW coastal shellfish manager, recommends clam diggers take lights or lanterns for the nighttime digs and check weather and surf forecasts before heading out.
Digging is restricted to the hours between noon and midnight. Harvesters are allowed to take no more than 15 razor clams and must keep the first 15 they dig, regardless of size or condition. Each digger's clams must be kept in a separate container.
A license is required for anyone age 15 or older. Any 2009 annual shellfish/seaweed license or combination fishing license is valid. Another option is a razor clam-only license available in annual or three-day only versions. Descriptions of the various options are available here.
More digs are tentatively scheduled Nov. 4-7, Nov. 14-17, Dec. 2-5, Dec. 31-Jan.3. For more information, check for updates on the WDFW website or call the shellfish hotline at 866.880.5431.
Meanwhile, anglers looking for salmon fishing opportunities might consider heading to the Strait of Juan de Fuca, where a non-selective fishery for coho and chinook opens Oct. 1 in Marine Area 6 (Port Angeles). A non-selective chinook fishery also gets underway Oct. 1 in Marine Area 5 (Sekiu), where anglers have been able to retain wild coho since Sept. 19. In non-selective fisheries, anglers may retain fish whether or not they have a clipped adipose fin.
Having Marine Area 5 open in October is a new opportunity for anglers, Thiesfeld said. In past years, anglers had to wait until November for the chinook fishery to open.
"The coho season has been exceptional this year and hopefully anglers will have some fun catching blackmouth as well," Thiesfeld said.
The daily limit in both marine areas is two salmon of any species, but only one fish may be a chinook. Thiesfeld reminds anglers that the salmon fishery in Marine Area 5 closes Oct. 15, while Marine Area 6 closes Oct. 31. Freshwater Bay, Port Angeles Harbor and Sequim Bay remain closed to salmon fishing, but anglers may fish for coho salmon in Dungeness Bay Oct. 1-31.
Also as of Oct. 1, anglers fishing in marine areas 11 and 13 (Vashon Island to South Puget Sound) will be allowed to retain wild chinook as part of their two-fish daily limit. However, all wild coho caught in Marine Area 13 must be released. Other fishing opportunities coming up in Puget Sound include chum and blackmouth retention in Hood Canal (Marine Area 12) beginning Oct. 16.
Closer to the coast, salmon anglers fishing Grays Harbor (Marine Area 2-2) and the lower Chehalis River have been doing quite well since the Sept. 16 opening, said Erica Crust, WDFW ocean port sampler. "These are popular areas and folks are catching some nice fish," she said.
In Marine Area 2-2, which is open through Nov. 30, the daily limit is two fish, one of which may be a wild adult coho. All adult chinook and chum must be released.
Crust reminds anglers that the upper Chehalis River above Porter Bridge opens to salmon fishing Oct. 1. Through Oct. 15, anglers on the river may retain two adult salmon as part of their six-fish daily limit. One of those may be a wild adult coho, but all adult chinook and chum must be released.
Other area rivers opening Oct. 1 include the Elk, Hoquiam, Humptulips, Johns, Satsop, Wishkah and Wynoochee rivers in Grays Harbor County, Kennedy Creek in Thurston County and the Nemah River in Pacific County.
Regulations are also changing on the Skokomish River in Mason County as of Oct. 1. Anglers may keep up to four adult salmon as part of a six-fish daily limit, but must release all chinook through Oct. 15. All chum must be released.
Anglers fishing in the Quillayute system — which includes the Bogachiel, Sol Duc, Calawah and Dickey rivers — can keep two adult salmon, plus two additional adult hatchery coho as part of the six-fish daily limit.
Southwest Washington
Large numbers of coho salmon are moving up the lower Columbia River into area tributaries and chinook are still biting in some rivers. But starting Oct. 1, anglers have another option to consider: sturgeon fishing in the mainstem Columbia River from the Wauna powerlines upstream to Bonneville Dam.
"This is a great fishing opportunity for fall, especially for anglers who don't have boats," said Brad James, a WDFW fish biologist. "Bank anglers have done very well, historically, fishing for sturgeon just below Bonneville Dam."
Anglers may retain legal-size sturgeon Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays only until the area quota is met. White sturgeon must measure 38 to 54 inches from their nose to the fork in their tail to meet the legal size limit. James said about 5,000 fish are still available for harvest in the mainstem Columbia River under the quota for the area.
"I wouldn't be surprised if the fishery starts out strong," James said. "Sturgeon have moved out of the estuary and have been chasing juvenile shad that are outmigrating past the dam."
Thousands of late-run coho salmon have also been moving up the mainstem Columbia River and should provide good fishing in the tributaries throughout the month of October, said WDFD fish biologist Wolf Dammers. Fishing for hatchery coho was slow in most rivers through September, although anglers averaged a legal fish for every three rods on the North Fork Lewis during one recent creel check.
"What we need now is some heavy rain to get the coho moving up tributaries throughout the region," Dammers said.
The best bets for hatchery coho in the coming weeks are the Cowlitz, Lewis, Kalama, Elochoman, Grays and the Klickitat rivers, he said. During the last week of September, anglers were catching both hatchery coho and some bright chinook salmon on the Cowlitz River below Interstate 5. Dammers said some foot-long cutthroat are also biting near the trout hatchery.
Anglers may retain up to six hatchery-reared adult coho on all lower Columbia tributaries with hatchery programs, including the Cowlitz, Deep, Elochoman, Grays (including West Fork), Kalama, Klickitat, Lewis (including North Fork), Toutle (including Green and North Fork) and Washougal rivers. Except on the Klickitat River, only those fish with a clipped adipose fin and healed scar may be retained.
Starting Oct. 1, new rules will take effect on several of those rivers to protect spawning chinook salmon, as follows:
All chinook salmon must be released on the Lewis River, including the North Fork. Additionally, fishing from any floating device will be prohibited on the North Fork Lewis from Johnson Creek to Colvin Creek. On the North Fork, fishing will close from Colvin Creek upstream to protect naturally spawning fish.
All chinook must be released on the North Fork Toutle River from the Kidd Valley Bridge near Highway 504 upstream.
Adult chinook — but not hatchery jacks — must be released on the Green, Washougal (from Little Washougal River upstream) and the White Salmon River (from half a mile above the Hwy. 14 Bridge upstream). Marked, hatchery fall chinook — both adults and jacks — may still be retained on the Grays, Elochoman and Kalama rivers.
In addition, Drano Lake is scheduled to be closed to all fishing from 6 p.m. Tuesdays through 6 p.m. Wednesdays throughout the month of October.
Miss those days of August when anglers reeled in a record number of hatchery steelhead from the lower Columbia River? Some fish from that run have been taking their time moving upriver and "laying in" near the mouth of the White Salmon River, Dammers said. "Anglers have been doing pretty well fishing for summer steelhead there in the last quarter of a mile of the Big White Salmon," he said.
Eastern Washington
Glen Mendel, WDFW southeast district fish biologist, said fishing for fall chinook salmon remains slow on the two portions of the Snake River that are open through Oct. 15. "Hopefully catch rates will increase with colder weather ahead, when water temperatures decrease and fish are more active," Mendel said.
The two stretches open for fall chinook are from the Highway 12 Bridge (near the mouth of the Snake River) upstream to the no-fishing zone below Ice Harbor Dam, and from the Highway 261 Bridge crossing on the Snake River (about one-half mile upstream from Lyons Ferry Hatchery) upstream to the no-fishing zone below Little Goose Dam.
Snake River steelhead fishing continues to pick up and Mendel notes that discussions are underway to possibly expand the daily catch limit. Steelheaders can stay tuned for such fishing rule changes here or sign up here to receive notices.
Many trout fisheries in the northeast district's Ferry, Stevens and Pend Oreille counties remain open through October and could provide nice catches for fall outings.
Ellen Lake, north of Inchelium with a Colville National Forest campground, could be productive since it was rehabilitated last year. Gillette Lake, northeast of Colville with a Colville National Forest campground, has both rainbow and tiger trout. Browns Lake, northeast of Cusick with a Kaniksu National Forest campground, is usually best for fall cutthroat, although it's fly-fishing only and no motor boats are allowed.
Additional information on Washington fishing options is available here.
In southwest Spokane County, Clear Lake remains open through October and usually produces good catches of brown trout, crappie and largemouth bass in late fall. Amber Lake, with cutthroat and rainbow trout , is open through November, but the last two months are catch-and-release with selective gear rules.
Catch and size limits have been lifted temporarily for some trout fisheries scheduled for rotenone treatments this month to improve future fishing. Lincoln County's Fishtrap Lake and Spokane County's Hog Canyon Lake and Creek have no size or catch limits through Oct. 11, but they will close to fishing Oct. 12 until further notice. Spokane County's West Medical Lake has no size or catch limits through Oct. 25 and will close to fishing Oct. 26 until further notice.
South Central Washington
Salmon fishing in the Hanford Reach of the Columbia River near the Tri-Cities has been very productive, reports Paul Hoffarth, WDFW district fish biologist from Pasco.
"Harvest is well ahead of last year and will likely get better as water temperatures cool," Hoffarth said. "So far this season, 2,508 adult fall chinook and 874 jacks have been harvested — 20 percent above last year at this time. Angler effort, measured in angler trips, has increased 7 percent from the 2008 fishery."
An estimated 1,872 fall chinook (1,389 adults and 483 jacks) were harvested in the Hanford Reach the week ending Sept. 27. Anglers averaged 1.2 chinook per boat.
The Hanford Reach, from the Hwy. 395 Bridge in the Tri-Cities upstream to Priest Rapids Dam, also opened Sept. 22 for the retention of hatchery steelhead. The daily limit is three hatchery steelhead. An estimated 287 steelhead were recently caught, of which 193 were harvested. Bank anglers averaged 11 hours per steelhead.
WDFW staff interviewed 94 boats (199 anglers) with 15 steelhead at Ringold. Steelhead catch rates for boat anglers were low because the majority of the boat anglers interviewed at Ringold were targeting chinook. In the upper Reach, from the wooden powerline towers to Priest Rapids, 10 boats (20 anglers) specifically targeting steelhead were sampled. They reported 20 steelhead caught (10 hatchery and 10 wild) — slightly better than one steelhead for each five hours of fishing.
Hoffarth also noted the Yakima River is open for salmon fishing below Prosser Dam but has been fairly slow to date. "The number of anglers fishing for salmon in the Yakima River remains slow and steady, but catch remains extremely low," he said. "Only eight adult chinook were harvested this past week and 20 overall for the fishery. Yakima River fishing tends to improve in October."
Both the Yakima River and the Hanford Reach of the Columbia River will close for salmon fishing Oct. 22. In addition, the Hanford Reach from the wooden power line towers at the old Hanford town site to Priest Rapids Dam will close for steelhead fishing Oct. 22. The Columbia River downstream of the wooden power line towers will remain open for steelhead fishing after Oct. 22, but the daily catch limit for hatchery steelhead will be reduced to two fish.
Jonathan Kohr, WDFW fish biologist, reports good smallmouth bass fishing in the Columbia River above the Vernita Bridge. "Throw any bottom type of plastic — worms, grubs, tube jigs — and you'll catch them," Kohr said. "They're scrappy and fun to catch and (they're) good eating. Dip them in batter and make fish tacos."
Kohr notes that removing smallmouth from the river helps save salmon. He also cautioned boat anglers to be careful of shallow rocks or bars because water levels have been extremely low.
Northcentral Washington
Hatchery steelhead fishing opened Sept. 29 on the upper Columbia River, and on the Wenatchee, Icicle, Entiat, Methow and Okanogan rivers, thanks to a strong run of both wild and hatchery-produced steelhead.
WDFW Okanogan district fish biologist Bob Jateff of Twisp reminds anglers that this year's special fishery includes mandatory retention — anglers must keep any adipose-fin-clipped hatchery origin steelhead of at least 20 inches until the daily catch limit of four fish is reached. After they have retained four fish, anglers must stop fishing for hatchery steelhead.
Any wild steelhead caught — those with an intact adipose fin — must be immediately released unharmed without being removed from the water. Anglers also must release any steelhead with one or more round holes punched in the tail fin.
"This fishery helps remove hatchery-origin steelhead and increases the proportion of wild natural-origin steelhead returning to spawning areas," Jateff said.
The Icicle River will be open through Nov. 15 from the mouth to 500 feet downstream of the Leavenworth National Fish Hatchery Barrier Dam. Anglers fishing the Icicle also will be allowed to retain three coho (minimum size 12 inches) per day, but must release coho equipped with an anchor tag.
Fisheries on the other rivers are scheduled to remain open through March 31, 2010 unless the allowable incidental impact to wild steelhead is reached before then. They include:
- Mainstem Columbia River – from Rock Island Dam to 400 feet below Chief Joseph Dam. Night closure and selective gear rules apply, except fishing from a motorized vessel and bait are allowed.
- Wenatchee River – from the mouth to a sign about 800 feet below the most downstream side of Tumwater Dam. Night closure and selective gear rules apply.
- Entiat River – upstream from the Alternate Highway 97 Bridge near the mouth of the Entiat River to 800 feet downstream of the Entiat National Fish Hatchery outfall. Night closure and selective gear rules apply, except fishing from a motorized vessel is allowed.
- Methow River – from the Highway 97 Bridge in Pateros upstream to the second powerline crossing, and from the first Highway 153 Bridge north of Pateros to the confluence with the Chewuch River in Winthrop. The second powerline crossing upstream to the first Highway 153 Bridge is closed to fishing. Night closure and selective gear rules apply, except fishing from a motorized vessel is allowed.
- Okanogan River – from the mouth upstream except closed waters from the Lake Osoyoos Control Dam (Zosel Dam) downstream to the first Highway 97 Bridge below Oroville. Night closure and selective gear rules apply, except fishing from a motorized vessel is allowed.
Jateff also noted that Okanogan County lakes are fishing well now, including Big and Little Twin near Winthrop, Blue on the Sinlahekin Wildlife Area, and Chopaka near Loomis.
"Good numbers of rainbow trout from 12 to 16 inches can be found in all these lakes," he said. "Remember that Chopaka is fly-fishing only, and the other three lakes are selective gear only."
Catch and size limits have been lifted temporarily for Okanogan County's Buck Lake, scheduled for rotenone treatment this month to improve future fishing. No size or catch limits are in effect through Oct. 25 and then Buck Lake will be closed to fishing from Oct. 26 until further notice.
Coho, pink salmon catch remains hot in Puget Sound

Ed Friedrich has the story in the Kitsap Sun:
KINGSTON — Two Puget Sound shipyards are vying to build a passenger-only ferry for the Port of Kingston.
Representatives from All American Marine of Bellingham and Kvichak Marine Industries of Seattle attended a mandatory pre-proposal conference Tuesday morning at the port's office.
The port requested bids on Sept. 4 for an aluminum catamaran capable of carrying 150 people between Kingston and downtown Seattle. The trip, dermatologist
at 25 knots, would take about 35 minutes. Bids are due on Oct. 16. Port commissioners expect to issue a notice to proceed on about Dec. 2 and have the boat on the water within a year.
Art Parker from Kvichak, and All American's Joe Hudspeth, Gene Quanz and Del McAlpine clarified proposal expectations with Marty Robbins, who is managing the ferry project for the port. During the two-hour meeting, they discussed such things as crewing, bonding, acceptance trials, progress payments, freeboard at the docks and fueling.
"As pre-proposal conferences go, this is the best one I've ever done," Robbins said. "No one ever wants to talk. Everyone wants to keep their cards close to their vests."

Title & buy link: The Painting of Porcupine City
Author: Ben Monopoli
Cover Artist: Ben Monopoli
Buy link: Amazon.com
Genre: M/M contemporary
Length: Novel (388 pages)
Rating: 5 stars out of 5
A guest review by Leslie S
Review summary: A profound and moving story of loss and belonging, of being true to yourself and your needs and dreams, and above all, it's a beautiful contemplation on family.
Brazilian graffiti artist Mateo Amaral is looking for his heaven spot, the one perfect place to paint. His co-worker Fletcher Bradford is looking for a heaven spot of his own, and his is even more elusive. Out since age 12, Fletcher's been around more blocks than Mateo has ever painted. He's dated all the jerks, all the creeps, all the losers in between. At 26 he's decided the only way to meet a nice guy is just never to give him a chance to prove otherwise. When he's introduced to Mateo, Fletcher expects to add another notch to his bedpost. But Mateo is different—and from him Fletcher will rediscover a long-lost feeling—surprise. What Fletcher finds in the trunk of Mateo's car will change his life in ways he never imagined—and may help him find what he's always wanted.
This is one of those books that are hard to review coherently because of the sheer amount of thought, empathy, and ideas that it contains. It's a book that would repay several readings, preferably over a wide span of time, because what's important on the first read-through will not be as important the second time, and this is definitely a story that has layers—not so much like an onion, but perhaps more like the layers of paint a graffiti artist lays down and builds upon.
Fletcher is a copyeditor at a publishing house in Boston. He doesn't realise it, but he's been in a limbo for a while now. He doesn't enjoy his job, he sleeps with guys but never gets serious; he's published a novel but hasn't been able to write anything good since; he shares an apartment with his best friend Cara, who's the long-term girlfriend of his other best friend Jamar, but apart from them, he has no real meaningful ties. When a new IT guy, Mateo, starts at his workplace, Fletcher is intrigued by the streaks of paint on Mateo's hands. Fletcher is a man who has a memory for detail, and he finds himself watching out for the paint on Mateo's hands over the next few weeks, and his casual interest develops into a crush.
Small things start changing in Fletcher's life. He sleeps with his closest gay friend, Alex, an act that separates them rather than brings them closer. Then Alex reveals that he's dating a guy called Jimmy, who was Fletcher's dream guy at college. Back then, Jimmy was straight. Now he's not, and Fletcher has a longing to nail 'the one that got away'. In the meantime, Fletcher's attraction to Mateo keeps growing, and one day while he's helping to fix Mateo's car, he stumbles across a bunch of spray cans.
Mateo is a graffiti artist—a good one. A famous one, or rather, an infamous one. A graffiti artist the cops would love to catch. He's a little like the UK street artist Banksy, and his major works consist of what Fletcher calls the Facts—statements such as 'sky is blue' with accompanying artwork. To avoid detection, Mateo works on several Facts at a time around the city and if any other graffiti artist is around, he has a secondary identity as a tagger—someone who signs their nickname and doodles smaller designs.
Though he's reluctant to open up at first, Mateo invites Fletcher along on one of his painting excursions. Soon Fletcher is joining in, picking himself a nickname 'Arrowman' and tagging his name on walls. In Mateo's opinion, there's not much that separates a novelist and a graffiti artist—both play with words and truth—and soon he and Fletcher fall into a relationship that's both comfortable and uneasy.
Mateo is the best thing that's ever happened to him, but Fletcher is torn over a lot of things. He can't always square away the fact that he's committing a crime when they go out with the spray cans; his notions of public space clash with Mateo's ideas. Mateo excites him in more than just the bedroom, but at the same time, Mateo represents change, and like most people, Fletcher is both intrigued and repelled by the concept of change: it's always more comfortable in the status quo even if you're not completely content there, and his relationship with Mateo is pulling him further and further out of his comfort zone towards the unknown.
Then Cara announces that she's pregnant, and she and Jamar get married. Fletcher starts to re-evaluate his life and his future with Mateo, and then, on Valentine's Day, a whole series of events gets put into motion that will change Fletcher forever…
There's so much to say about The Painting of Porcupine City. It's a book you experience as well as read, and though it took me a while to adjust to the style (I've been reading too much disposable literature these days :lol:), I was soon immersed in the story and was annoyed when I had to put it down. All the characters feel real, and I was so caught up in events that I did actually say out loud 'don't do that, you idiot!' at one moment and I did get teary-eyed over another scene.
But it's about so much more than the characters. This is a proper literary novel, and its themes are wide-ranging and have an impact when you least expect it. Denial, family, community, truth, art, illusion… it's all here, woven into the narrative in an elegant, understated way.
For me the key theme was that of denial. It's ironic, because Fletcher has been out and proud since he was 12 years old and yet he constantly denies himself the one thing he craves—family. Even when it's presented to him as potential in the form of Mateo, Fletcher finds a way to deny it again. It's only when family is forced upon him towards the end of the book that Fletcher can understand himself and his needs.
Fletcher struggles to share Mateo with the city and with his art. I loved the scenes of the two of them on their nocturnal trips as Mateo teaches Fletcher what it's like to be a graffiti artist. But like all artists, there's a zone that Mateo sinks into when he's painting, and Fletcher feels like he can't touch him there, and gets jealous and almost afraid (again the irony: when Fletcher was writing his novel, he sank so deeply into the zone that Jamar staged an intervention to drag him back into reality).
Mateo belongs to three different worlds—Boston, Sao Paulo, and his art, but he's only truly comfortable when he's painting, and Fletcher increasingly feels alienated and unable to share. Partly there's a fear of commitment, which again is hugely ironic, given that the one thing that he's always wanted is a family or at least the sense of a family—but also there's this almost Proustian nostalgia, typified by his lusting over Jimmy. The book's pivotal moment revolves around Jimmy, who is just a normal asshole-ish type of guy and nowhere near as special as Fletcher has built him up to be, but it's because of what happens with Jimmy that Fletcher truly starts to realise what he's got, what he's had, and what he could be—and he wouldn't be in that position without Mateo.
Once Mateo is firmly anchored in the story as a character, there's a shift in style. Instead of Fletcher's first person POV, we move into third person POV while we see Mateo's life with his landlady and, later, his time in Sao Paulo. But Fletcher's POV is never far away, and we're reminded that this is a narrative within a narrative—and it may not even be a true narrative (the device harking back to an early part of the book where Mateo gives the bare facts of his father's affair with the woman who is now Mateo's landlady, and he asks Fletcher to make fiction from fact and 'invent' how the affair had started). This, plus other stylistic devices and story elements particularly in the last third of the book, move the novel towards magic realism. It put me a little in mind of Salman Rushdie's earlier works; in both, the fancy is fully meshed with reality to create a hyper-reality in places.
As with Mateo's street art of the Facts, nothing's ever out of place in this book. There's no throwaway lines or random walk-on characters. Seemingly insignificant moments circle back to have immense relevance later in the story, and like the Facts, these moments are touched upon with enough emphasis that you just know they'll become important later; like the Facts, they're things that stare you in the face and you think you know what they signify, but maybe you don't. Now that's the mark of a damn good storyteller and an excellent craftsman.
Is Porcupine City perfect? No, of course not. For a self-published book of this length there's fewer typos than the norm in a pro-published book, so when they do come along, they're quite jarring. I personally didn't care for one of the twists in the narrative, although I can appreciate why it was necessary, and so for me that part was something I admired more on a technical level than on an emotional level, and I finished the last 70 pages or so less invested than I'd have liked to have been by that point. But that doesn't detract from the beauty of this story and its complex, myriad messages. It's at once immersive and detached, a difficult technique to pull off, but Monopoli makes it work so well.
This really is one of those books that'll stay with you for a long time. Strongly recommended.

Sebastian Vettel wins Brazilian Grand Prix, Lewis Hamilton finishes 4th
SAO PAULO (AP) — Ferrari's Sebastian Vettel won the Brazilian Grand Prix on Sunday to solidify his hold on second place in the season standings after Lewis Hamilton clinched the title two weeks ago in Mexico City.
It was Vettel's 47th career win and his fifth this season. It was also the German's third victory in Brazil.
Vettel started second on the grid, but overtook pole sitter Valtteri Bottas of Mercedes on the first lap and then led most of the way.
Vettel probably won the race with his start.
"I thought I had a pretty good launch," Vettel said. "I knew I had to go for it. There was a little bit of a gap and it turned out to be very important."
Hamilton:Team members robbed at gunpoint
Hamilton started last after crashing in qualifying but managed to push his way into contention, staying out longer while the other leaders changed tires earlier because they were running on softer compounds.
Bottas finished second with Kimi Raikkonen of Ferrari taking third. Hamilton was fourth, just 5.4 seconds behind Vettel.
Hamilton closed relentlessly, and Vettel was asked if he was ever worried about the Englishman passing him.
"Not really," he replied. "I didn't think he was a threat."
Vettel has 302 points with the final race in two weeks in Abu Dhabi. Third-place Bottas has 280. Even if Bottas wins in Abu Dhabi, Vettel can take second place in the season rankings by finishing in eighth place or higher.
If they tie on points, Vettel wins because he has more season victories.
"He's got quite a lead now, so it will take a miracle in Abu Dhabi," Bottas said. "I was very disappointed in the race start. After that, I was trying to catch up on Sebastian but it didn't lead to anything more."
The victory was a long time coming for Vettel, a four-time champion — like Hamilton — who had not won since the Hungarian Grand Prix in July.
Vettel won three of the first six races this season and then faded as Hamilton surged.
Calling it a "great relief," Vettel said "it's been a tough day, a tough race. There was no room for mistakes."
Brazilian Felipe Massa finished seventh in his final race in Brazil. He will bow out of Formula One in two weeks and is expected to race next season in the electric-powered Formula E series.
He won 11 races in his career and came within a point of taking the season title in 2008. A year ago he said he was retiring, only to come back with Williams. It won't happen again, he said, addressing the sellout crowd at the Interlagos track.
"I am going to miss you a lot," he told fans. "The thrill I felt today was immense, just like last year. I will never forget today."

KITCHENER, Ont. – If you're looking for something different for your summer holiday and think camping is a little too rustic for you and your kids, Bingemans in Kitchener might have the solution – a specially designed 'glamping' getaway.
"A lot of people love the idea of camping; sitting around a fire, enjoying the wilderness and connecting with family and friends, but not everyone likes to rough it while on their vacation," said Mark Bingeman of Bingemans Camping Resort. "We've created an experience that combines the outdoor fun of camping with the comfort of a five star hotel. The other great aspect is how you can customize the experience to be as glamorous or as rustic as you like."
Combining glamour with camping, this new take on camping is the ultimate experience for families or friends looking to spend some time together in the outdoors but not stray too far from the comforts of home.
Bingemans Camping Resort's standard glamping package includes a yurt rental (a free standing tent with hard walls and a door), two Queen Size beds with full linen, a fridge, chandelier lighting, gate controlled access location, a fire ring and picnic table all on a site overlooking the Grand River.
The glamping packages are designed for beginning campers who are looking to ease their way into the real thing, or for families and groups of friends that don't want to deal with the hassle that roughing it in the great outdoors can sometimes be.
Bingemans is also offering the Pampered Glamping package for those looking to increase the comfort level of their vacation. The Pampered package includes Gina's Spa glamping rejuvenator, a personal chef dinner made with local based menus delivered to your yurt, premium picnic baskets and a movie night to top it off.
"We pride ourselves on providing a fun experience for every family and every family member. Our glamping packages are perfect for the discerning family or group that wants to get away from the city but also get pampered and enjoy the outdoor water park activities and other fun at the park," said Bingeman.

Nolan's epic 'Dunkirk' is visually and audibly stunning
Christopher Nolan returns with his 10th Feature film based on the World War II evacuation of Allied troops from the French city of Dunkirk. Scarce dialogue, authentic sound design and no sign of CGI mean this isn't your usual blockbuster. It's also a visual spectacular shot on IMAX 65 mm and 65 mm large format film stock, so you should see this on the biggest screen possible.
From the very first scenes of Tommy, played by Fionn Whitehead, running through the streets of Dunkirk, the tension is set and it never lets up. The lack of dialogue and chatter helps the film to feel authentic; If you were in this life or death situation the last thing you would be doing would be chatting away to your companions. Dunkirk is told from three perspectives: the land, where we find 400,000 troops stranded on the beach awaiting evacuation, the sea, which shows the British Navy and civilian vessels trying their best to evade Nazi U-boats or bombing aircraft, and the air, in which we witness Spitfires spectacularly dog fighting with the Luftwaffe.
The authenticity of the film starts with the fact that filming was done on location with real boats and planes, so if there is any CGI it must've been minimal as I couldn't spot it. The gunfire and bombing also appears and sounds very authentic, there are no 'movie explosions' or lead characters confidently walking away from fire balls not looking back. When these iconic planes get shot down they go down with in a trail of smoke as devastatingly graceful as they would have done on those fateful days. With all this realism Dunkirk cleverly portrays the horror of war but avoids showing lots of blood and gore and epitomised that in war there is no one single hero, but a band people, both civilian and military, that risk and sometimes lose their lives.
Tom Hardy plays one of the brave Royal Air Force pilots. He seems to be contractually obliged to wear a mask in all his movies, however, this does produce some pretty excellent eyeball acting (see below pic). One Direction's mop top Harry Styles totally pulls off his film acting debut here and he also gets a fair chunk of lines in this dialogue sparse film. If I were to pick out one performance to praise it would be Mark Rylance as a civilian mariner who heads into the war zone to try and save as many troops as he can.
Some may feel this film lacks characterisation, however, the event of Dunkirk is, in fact, the film's main character, and rightly its focus. As an accomplement to the breathtaking visuals, Hans Zimmers's score is out of this world; it's more like sound design then soundtrack, as it bubbles below every tense scene. Oscar Oscar Oscar!!!!!
Nolan's Dunkirk shows him to be a master filmmaker who has brought to the screen a story that many may not know (but should) in a way that no other director could.
Dunkirk plays out the devastation of war alongside the panic, strength and honour it can bring out in humanity.
