PAT NEAL: One nation, under surveillance. - Peninsula Daily News (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Published 1:30 am Wednesday, September 30, 2026 THEY SAY AMERICA is one nation, under God. Lately, it seems like we are one nation under surveillance.

In the 1860s, James Swan wrote, “The grandeur of the scenery about Cape Flattery and the strange contortions and fantastic shapes into which the cliffs have been thrown, the wild and varied sounds which fill the air mingled with the living cries of innumerable fowl fill the beholder with mysterious awe.
PAT NEAL: A short history of bluebacks - Peninsula Daily News (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Published 1:30 am Wednesday, August 19, 2026 THIS IS THE time of year to catch some bluebacks. People often ask what a blueback is. It is not an easy question to answer. Salmon and sea-run trout have a blue back and a white belly when they come out of the ocean. To a predator looking from above, the blue back of the fish blends in with the deep blue sea. To a predator looking at the fish from below, the white belly blends in with the light of the sky. Conversely, this blue and white color scheme
