How to find lecture at UW

Some folks may have trouble finding Meany Hall at the University of Washington tonight for the free lecture by Seattle paleontologist Kirk Johnson. If you haven’t been to Meany Hall or aren’t familiar with Seattle, the directions given in Saturday’s Good Life section (41st Avenue and 15th Street) may throw you off. Unlike parts of Everett, Seattle streets run east and west, avenues run north and south. Access and parking at Meany Hall is at 15th Avenue NE and NE 41st Street. You’re welcome.

In this Sept. 2017, photo made with a drone, a young resident killer whale chases a chinook salmon in the Salish Sea near San Juan Island, Wash. The photo, made under a National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) permit, which gives researchers permission to approach the animals, was made in collaboration with NOAA Fisheries/Southwest Fisheries Science Center, SR3 Sealife Response, Rehabilitation, and Research and the Vancouver Aquarium's Coastal Ocean Research Institute. Endangered Puget Sound orcas that feed on chinook salmon face more competition from seals, sea lions and other killer whales than from commercial and recreational fishermen, a new study finds.
