Teriyaki Plates Heaped With Rice And Chicken Still Feed Two At These 10 Washington Shops

One plate of chicken teriyaki in Yakima can reportedly stretch into three more meals. That one detail sent me straight down a very hungry rabbit hole. Teriyaki counts as a local specialty in Washington, and the strip-mall shops serving it take portions seriously. Think two scoops of rice, a side salad, and enough glazed chicken to make a takeout box bulge.

Social Security payments will come early for some WA residents this month

If you were born in the early days of the month and are waiting for November's Social Security payment, check your account a day early. This month's first Social Security payment will arrive on a Tuesday for the millions of Americans who usually receive their checks on the second Wednesday of every month. In November, the second Wednesday on Nov. 11 is Veterans Day and the federal holiday will slightly affect payment dates. November's first check will arrive on Nov. 10 instead of Nov. 11, and then later in the month as schedule on the third (Nov. 18) and fourth (Nov. 28) Wednesdays this month. Supplemental Security Income payments will also not have an early November payment date because Nov. 1 fell on a Sunday this year. Those payments were issued on Friday, Oct. 30. Here's what to know about this month's Social Security payments in Washington. When will I get my November Social Security payment? If you normally get Social Security on the second Wednesday of each month, your payment will come in one day early on Nov. 10. All other payments will continued as scheduled later in November.

Auditor closely reviews just 11 of 17,000 vendors to justify billions in increased spending

(The Center Square) – Annual vendor spending at Washington’s Department of Social and Health Services (DSHS) jumped $2.9 billion in four years, but a state audit assuring taxpayers that the surge was “valid” relied on a small, hand-selected sample of just 11 vendors. Experts say the sample should not have been used to draw such broad conclusions. According to the Washington State Auditor’s Office, DSHS paid more than 17,000 vendors approximately $8.6 billion in 2025, up roughly 50% from $5.7 billion in 2021. Of those 17,000 companies, auditors identified more than 1,000 vendors whose payments showed unusually high or “exponential” growth. “When payments to a government vendor rise unusually fast, it can signal potential fraud, waste or other concerns,” acknowledged State Auditor Pat McCarthy. “Exponential growth in vendor payments can also be legitimate. We found the latter was the case.” But to reach that “legitimate” conclusion , just 11 vendors received an “in-depth” review, or “closer inspection,” according to the auditor’s report. Each vendor was handpicked – not randomly selected – through a process called judgmental selection. Even with the small sample size of 11 vendors, the in-depth review did not come back entirely clean. Auditors “found two cases in

Op-Ed: Here we go again: Washington's education establishment wants more cash

This is not a reprint of a story 10 or even 20 years ago – although it sure could be. Washington state's education establishment is getting ready to file yet another lawsuit demanding taxpayers spend more money on K-12 education. And the news just so happens to come in the wake of the failure of I-645, which would have repealed Washington's new income tax. Now that the income tax has survived (for now), it's time to belly up to the taxpayer buffet. According to reports, the Lake Washington, Tacoma and Yakima school districts are preparing to sue the state claiming it fails "to fund basic education." But here's the problem: Washington state doesn't underfund K-12 education. According to the Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction, school district general fund spending reached $19,371 per pupil in 2024–25. A decade earlier, in 2015–16, it was $11,450. That is an increase of roughly 69%. For a classroom of 25 students, that is a whopping $484,275. This data does not include local spending on K-12, which adds hundreds of millions more. On top of this, Washington’s public schools are serving fewer students. The state’s Office of Financial Management reports K–12 enrollment of approximately 1.071
