LOS ANGELES — Edward Snowden may represent the archetypal leaker of the Internet age — a tech savant who justifies his civil disobedienceas a righteous rebuttal to the big institutions he believes have intruded too far into ordinary people's lives. But it's not just the mole in the National Security Agency surveillance story who is operating in new channels. The reporters who brought his account forward also represent something distinct in journalism. In some cases, their profiles loom larger, particularly on the subject of security and spying, than those of their publications. And a couple offer full-throated attacks on unchecked government surveillance, as they reject the impartial journalistic stance that was a fundamental principle for a previous generationofreporters. That combination means significant parts of official Washington have attacked not just Snowden, but some of the reporters who brought forward accounts of the NSA's vast trove of telephone and Internet data. Rep. Peter King, R-N.Y., has called for the criminal prosecution of Glenn Greenwald, the columnist, author and lawyer who first broke the story for the Guardian of London. SeeLeaks /A4

Of the 53 graduates from 1938, Endicott knows of 10 still alive. Eight of those 10 attended the reunion. "Two could not make it due to health problems," Endicott said. Most of the survivors still live in Oregon- in Eugene, Portland, Tigard and Silver Lake — except for two who live in Arizona. Endicott, the father of Redmond Mayor George Endicott, joined the Army Air Corps in 1941. "I got my wings commission in 1943 and married Betty, and in July we'll have our 70th anniversary."

REDMOND — On Tuesday afternoon in a private dining room overlooking Juniper Golf Course, the surviving graduates from the Redmond Union High School class of 1938 gathered to celebrate their 75thyear reunion. "The only way we got this together is by people calling people.... I knew how to get ahold of three people, but they knew someone else and they called someone else," said Everett Endicott, the only male class member present. "I think this is just outstanding having all these ladies here from that

Late Tuesday afternoon, a group of 10 lawmakers, an equal number from both sides of the aisle, met behind closed doors with an official from the legislative revenue office to discuss a handful of ways to raise taxes. Sen. Chris Edwards, DEugene, said he joined Republicans to deadlock against the $6.55 billion statewide public school budget Monday with the hope that lawmakers could strike a "grand bargain" between steeper public pension cuts and raising taxes. Ending the partisan gridlock would funnel more money to schools across the state. Republicans have been pushing for deeper cuts to the state's pension system, while Democrats have been advocating raising taxes. On Friday, state senators will take another shot at voting on the K-12 budget, which with $200 million in pension cuts already made this session gives schools a $1 billion boost over the next two years. There are a lot of moving parts, Edwards said, but he's hoping lawmakers can hold public hearings vetting some proposals on the table within the next couple of days. After leaving the small conference room Tuesday afternoon, a couple of lawmakers said they felt "hopeful." "I've seen things move quickly in this building," Edwards said after the meeting. Sen. Tim Knopp, R-Bend, said "the mood was good." SeeTax/A5

boost efforts at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center and elsewhere to extend the cure to others. "I don't want to be the only person in the world cured of HIV," Brown said in an interview. "I want there to be a lot more like me." Seattle is the first stop on
his national fundraising tour for The Timothy Ray Brown Foundation, devoted to the search for a cure. "I really believe that there is goingto be a cure foreveryone within my lifetime," said Brown, 47. His own cure was a grueling procedurethat required
a combination of serendipity and scientific innovation difficult to duplicate. Diagnosed with HIV in 1995, Brown kept the disease mostly in check with a
regimen of drugs. Then in 2006, while living in Berlin, he began to feel so weak he could barely ride his bicycle
