美国新闻一则NATIONAL司法部请最高法院放行邮寄选票新规
Justice Department asks the Supreme Court to let the new mail-ballot rules take effect
据哥伦比亚广播公司报道，联邦邮政依3月的一道行政令订出邮寄选票新规：信封须有统一条码，各州还要把打算邮寄投票的选民姓名住址上传到邮政的网上平台，不合规的选票邮件会被退回选务处。20多个民主党执政的州与投票权团体为此告上法庭，联邦地区法官塔尔瓦尼(Talwani)上周下了14天临时禁令。司法部9月3号紧急申请最高法院解除禁令。
Under a March executive order, the Postal Service issued rules requiring uniform barcodes on ballot envelopes and requiring states to upload the names and addresses of intended mail voters to a Postal Service portal, with non-compliant ballot mail returned to election offices, CBS News reports. More than twenty Democratic-led states and voting-rights groups sued, and U.S. District Judge Indira Talwani issued a 14-day block last week. On Sept. 3 the Justice Department filed an emergency application asking the Supreme Court to lift it.
社区影响司法部说这只是信封格式的小要求，选务官员说11月3号投票前根本改不完，两边都还在打。华州是全民邮寄投票，长者手里那张票就走这套流程：留意县选务处寄来的每一份通知，也别掐着最后一天才把票投进邮筒。
COMMUNITY IMPACTThe Justice Department calls these modest envelope requirements; election officials say they cannot be met before the Nov. 3 vote. Washington votes entirely by mail, so an elder's ballot travels through exactly this machinery — watch for the county elections office's notices and do not leave it to the last day.
名词解释Glossary mail ballot：邮寄选票；injunction：法院暂时叫停某项措施的命令

本地新闻LOCAL NEWS塔科马(Tacoma)店主骗走60万粮食券 遭联邦通缉
Tacoma grocer accused of $600,000 food-stamp fraud lands on FBI wanted list
据《西北亚洲周报》和KIRO电台9月3号报道，联邦调查局把65岁的马吉特·辛格·贝迪(Manjit Singh Bedi)列进了「头号通缉诈骗犯」名单。检方指他在塔科马(Tacoma)开亚洲杂货店，2024年3月到2025年6月刷顾客的粮食券卡却不给食物、改给现金，自己抽走约一半，涉案至少60万美元。他被起诉后获准不羁押，条件是交出护照、留在华州，人却开车进了加拿大，再转去印度。
Northwest Asian Weekly and KIRO Newsradio reported on Sept. 3 that the FBI has added Manjit Singh Bedi, 65, to its Most Wanted Fraudsters list. Prosecutors say that from March 2024 to June 2025, at his Asian Grocery Store in Tacoma, Bedi swiped customers' food-benefit cards and handed them cash instead of food, keeping about half. At least $600,000 is involved. Released before trial on condition that he surrender his passport and stay in Washington, he instead drove into Canada and went on to India.
社区影响粮食券只能买食物，刷卡换现金是双方都犯法，检方这次告店主的就是电汇诈骗和粮食券诈骗两项罪。本地华人家庭在小店里若被劝「卡刷了给你现金」，当场走开最省事；真知道谁在这么干，打联邦调查局的免费电话1800－225－5324。
COMMUNITY IMPACTFood benefits may buy food and nothing else, and swapping the card for cash breaks the law on both sides — the shop owner here is charged with wire fraud and SNAP fraud. When a corner shop offers a Chinese family here 'cash for the card,' walking out is the simplest answer; if you actually know of someone doing it, the FBI's toll-free line is 1-800-225-5324.
名词解释Glossary SNAP：粮食券（联邦食品补助）；EBT card：粮食券刷卡

本地新闻LOCAL NEWS优步(Uber)裁掉华州93人 11月2号离岗
Uber cuts 93 Washington jobs, with the last day set for Nov. 2
据GeekWire和《西雅图时报》报道，优步(Uber)9月2号通知员工全球重组，裁掉约3300人，是员工总数的10%。同一天递交华州就业安全部的裁员预告显示，华州共93人，多在西雅图市中心的工程中心，职位有软件工程师、产品经理、数据科学家和一名工程总监。60天预告期到11月2号，其间工资福利照发。优步另已租下贝尔维尤(Bellevue)一栋新写字楼。
Uber told staff on Sept. 2 that a global reorganization will cut about 3,300 jobs, roughly 10% of its workforce, GeekWire and The Seattle Times report. A notice filed the same day with Washington's Employment Security Department lists 93 people in this state, most at the company's downtown Seattle engineering center, in roles including software engineer, product manager, data scientist and one director of engineering. The 60-day notice period runs to Nov. 2, with pay and benefits continuing. Uber has separately leased a new office tower in Bellevue.
社区影响华州科技业自去年5月已裁掉逾1万人，这一轮砍的是中层和工程岗，正是许多本地华人子女所在的位置。60天预告期不是等消息的空档：工资福利还照发，正好拿来找下一份工、把医保接上、把每月房贷先算清楚。
COMMUNITY IMPACTMore than 10,000 tech jobs have gone in Washington since May 2025, and this round hits the engineering and middle-management rungs where many local Chinese families' grown children sit. The 60-day notice period is the window for job-hunting and for lining up health coverage — not a stretch of waiting.
名词解释Glossary WARN notice：裁员预告（公司裁人前须报州政府，名单公开）；notice period：预告期

监察官查出四项违规 金县估价官被10名主管联名请辞
After an ombuds report found four ethics violations, ten managers ask the King County assessor to resign
金县估价官这个位子，定的是全县每家每户房子的估价，也就是您房产税的底数。9月1号，县监察官出具报告，认定现任估价官约翰·威尔逊(John Wilson)在四组问题上违反操守规定，涉及县里资源的使用、职权范围和竞选活动。9月2号，首席副估价官戴姆斯(Al Dams)联同九名部门主管联名发信，请他立即辞职，这封信值得跟一跟。
The King County Assessor is the office that sets the assessed value of every home in the county -- the number your property tax is figured from. On Sept. 1 the county Ombuds issued a report finding the current assessor, John Wilson, broke ethics rules on four counts, involving use of county resources, the scope of his authority and campaign activity. On Sept. 2 the chief deputy assessor, Al Dams, and nine division managers signed a letter asking him to resign at once -- a letter worth following.

默瑟岛(Mercer Island)一居民信用卡被盗刷1.2万多美元
A Mercer Island resident's credit card was used for more than $12,000 in fraudulent purchases
默瑟岛(Mercer Island)警方9月3号公布的警情简报里，8月27号有居民报案，说自己的信用卡被人盗刷了12190.86美元。同一份简报里，光8月26号一天就记了三起撬车案，有砸窗的，也有拉开没锁的车门的。信用卡账单别攒到月底才看，改成每周翻一遍，发现得早，银行退款也快。
In a police blotter released Sept. 3, Mercer Island police recorded an Aug. 27 report from a resident whose credit card was used for $12,190.86 in fraudulent purchases. The same blotter logs three vehicle prowls on Aug. 26 alone, some a smashed window and some an unlocked door. Do not save the card statement for the end of the month — look once a week, because catching it early is what makes the bank's refund quick.

造收容小屋的Pallet公司周五停业
Pallet, the maker of the small shelter units, shuts down on Friday
Pallet这家西雅图公司，做的是一两个人住的独立小屋；今年才有非营利机构拿它的小屋在因特贝(Interbay)开了75间的收容点。做了4年的Pallet9月3号在自家网站宣布，本周五起停止运营，理由是资金和政策优先次序都变了。以后这些小屋的暖气、门锁、窗户坏了，得由营运方自己照着手册找零件修。
Pallet is a Seattle company that makes standalone cabins for one or two people to live in; only this year did a nonprofit use them to open a 75-unit shelter site in Interbay. Pallet, four years in business, announced on its own website on Sept. 3 that it will stop operating this Friday, citing changes in funding and policy priorities. From now on, when a cabin's heat, locks or windows fail, the operator has to find the parts and fix it themselves from a manual.

华大(UW)研究：会聊天的智能毛绒玩具 孩子越玩越烦
A UW study finds children go from curious to fed up with talking AI plush toys
华盛顿大学(UW)请了八个六到11岁的孩子，来玩肚子里装了人工智能、能自己接话的毛绒玩具。孩子一开始好奇地问名字、挠脚心，等玩具答不上复杂问题、也看不懂动作，就开始嫌它「丑」「坏」，有个孩子说它讲睡前故事「会毁了我的梦」。研究者提醒：这类玩具会答错、会一味夸孩子，还可能让孩子对它生出依赖，买给孙辈前值得先想一想。
The University of Washington brought in eight children aged 6 to 11 to play with plush toys that carry an AI model and hold unscripted conversations. The children began curious — asking the toy's name, tickling its toes — but once the toys failed at harder questions and missed physical cues, they turned on them, calling them ugly and evil, with one child saying a bedtime story from the toy would ruin his dreams. The researchers warn the toys give wrong answers, flatter children excessively and can foster attachment, which is worth weighing before buying one for a grandchild.

830人同桌吃点心破世界纪录 证书可以去领了
The 830 people who set a dim sum world record can now collect their certificates
今年6月18号，830个人在西雅图唐人街南京街(South King Street)两个街区的红桌子边同时吃点心，把2019年悉尼创下的764人纪录顶了下去，点心由翠苑(Jade Garden)供应。主办的唐人街商业改进区现在通知参加过的人，先在通知里的表格上登记，再到该会办公室领吉尼斯世界纪录证书和活动T恤。通知没有写办公室的地址和开放时间，去之前请照通知上的链接先问一声。
On June 18 this year, 830 people ate dim sum at the same time along two blocks of South King Street in Seattle's Chinatown-International District, beating the 764-person record set in Sydney in 2019, with the food supplied by Jade Garden. The organizing business improvement area is now telling participants to register on the form in its notice and then collect their Guinness World Records certificate and event T-shirt at its main office. The notice gives no address or opening hours, so use the link in it to ask before going.

伦顿(Renton)库伦海滩细菌超标 今年第六次禁泳
Bacteria levels close Renton's Gene Coulon beach for the sixth time this year
8月31号的取样显示，伦顿(Renton)库伦纪念海滩(Gene Coulon Memorial Beach)三分之二的采样点，每100毫升水里的菌落数超过320个，已经不适合游泳。这是这片华盛顿湖最南端的海滩今年第六次因为细菌超标关闭，离上一次重开才几个星期。带孙辈去湖边玩水之前，先看一眼公园门口的告示牌。
Samples taken Aug. 31 show that at two-thirds of the sampling points at Gene Coulon Memorial Beach in Renton, bacteria exceeded 320 colony-forming units per 100 milliliters, making the water unsafe for swimming. It is the sixth closure this year at the southernmost swimming beach on Lake Washington, only weeks after it last reopened. Check the notice board at the park entrance before taking a grandchild into the water.

美国文化一则American Customs
美国把通缉犯做成一张公开榜单，配上照片、姓名和一个明码标价的悬赏数字，请普通人打电话举报。联邦调查局除了人尽皆知的「10大通缉要犯」，另设一张「头号通缉诈骗犯」榜，专收骗钱的人；这张榜自设立以来一共上了16个人，抓回来四个。这次上榜的塔科马(Tacoma)店主，悬赏最高15万美元。
America turns its fugitives into a public list — photograph, name, and a price openly attached — and asks ordinary people to phone in what they know. Alongside the famous Ten Most Wanted Fugitives, the FBI keeps a separate Most Wanted Fraudsters list for people who steal money; sixteen names have gone on it since it began, and four have been caught. The reward for the Tacoma grocer now on it runs up to $150,000.
这套做法背后是一条美国式的算盘：警力有限，而线索散在千家万户手里，与其扩编不如把奖金摆到台面上，让知情的人自己算这笔账。公开姓名和照片同时也是一种约束——把追捕摊在阳光下，谁被通缉、为什么被通缉，人人查得到。
The logic is a characteristically American piece of arithmetic: police capacity is finite while the tips are scattered across thousands of households, so rather than hire more officers the government puts the money on the table and lets whoever knows something do the sum. Publishing the name and the photograph is also a constraint on the state — a manhunt conducted in daylight, where anyone can look up who is wanted and what for.
中国也有通缉令，也有「有奖举报」，只是数额小、贴在派出所门口，一般人未必看见。差别不在有没有，而在悬赏这件事在美国是当街做的生意。对咱们的实际意义只有一条：真知道点什么，打1800的免费电话就行，不必自己去找人。
China has wanted notices too, and rewards for information, but the sums are small and the notice is pinned at the police station door where most people never see it. The difference is not whether the practice exists but that in America it is transacted in the open. The practical upshot for us is one line: if you genuinely know something, the toll-free 1-800 line is the whole of your job — do not go looking for the person yourself.

今日一词Word of the Day
reward
悬赏金；也指信用卡、超市会员卡上攒的「回馈、积分」
a reward — either a sum offered for information, or the points and cash back earned on a credit or store card
The FBI is offering a reward of up to $150,000 for information leading to his arrest and conviction.
两处都用得上：通缉告示上写reward，是悬赏；信用卡账单和超市会员卡上写rewards，是您攒下的积分和回馈。看见这个字先分清是给出去的钱，还是回到您手里的钱。
It turns up in two places: on a wanted poster a reward is money offered for information; on a credit-card statement or a store card, rewards are the points and cash back you have accumulated. When you see the word, first work out whether it is money going out or money coming back to you.
