- As the growing season begins, farmers in Central Washington are hoping for relief from the financial stress that has made the Evergreen State’s agricultural industry the least profitable in the entire nation. Latest data available says that the state went from $1.2 billion in profit in 2023 to $293 million in debt in 2024. “Overall, our prices that we’re getting paid are the same as it was 30 years ago, but our costs, our prices getting paid here, and our costs are clear up here. So anybody can do that math,” said Blaine Smith, the owner of Bountiful Orchards in Chelan County.

- 16 grey whales have washed up on Washington’s shores, a record in the 50 years the Cascadia Research Collective has tracked the mortality of the giant ocean mammals. The whales migrate from their breeding waters off Mexico in the spring, up the coast to where they feed in the Arctic Ocean and Bering Sea. The fact that 16 have washed up on the shores of the Pacific Northwest shows the whales are starving and searching for food before they make it to the regions where they typically replenish, according to John Calambokidis, a research biologist and founder of the Cascadia Research Collective.

“I was literally shaking like a leaf, you know, very disturbing,” said Bob Stocks, who lives at the apartment complex on Grove Street near where the body was found.
Stocks said just before 5 p.m. Wednesday, he noticed a green yard waste bin on the sidewalk that did not belong to the complex.
“I went to push it back out of the way so I can put our bins back, and the bin was pretty heavy, and so I opened it up to see what was in it and, lo and behold, there was a body,” said Stocks, who then called 911.

According to a report from GeekWire, buyouts will be offered to senior directors and below, whose years of service at the company, plus age, add up to 70 or more.
“It’s very interesting because you usually don’t expect technology companies to be using early retirement plans,” said Joe Phillips, an economics professor at Seattle University. “Then the other issue with these early retirement plans is you can’t always control who’s participating.”
