俄罗斯释放在押美国公民哈伯德

Russia frees jailed American Stephen Hubbard

现年74岁的密歇根州人斯蒂芬·哈伯德(Stephen Hubbard),2022年在乌克兰东部被俄军扣押,2024年经不公开审理,以替乌克兰军队当雇佣兵的罪名被判近7年。据全国公共广播电台报道,10月21日美国特使威特科夫在圣彼得堡与普京会谈,商讨结束俄乌战争;会谈开始时普京宣布,已应特朗普的请求释放哈伯德,人已在圣彼得堡普尔科沃机场。

Stephen Hubbard, a 74-year-old from Michigan, was detained by Russian forces in eastern Ukraine in 2022 and, after a closed trial in 2024, sentenced to nearly seven years for serving as a mercenary in the Ukrainian army. NPR reports that as US envoy Steve Witkoff began talks with Putin in St. Petersburg on Oct. 21 about ending the war, Putin announced he had released Hubbard at Trump's request and that Hubbard was already at Pulkovo Airport.

社区影响哈伯德在拜登政府时期被美国正式认定为「不当拘押」;这次获释,正值特朗普政府解除部分对俄制裁、推动停战谈判之际。对本地华人家庭而言,长者出国探亲、旅行之前,宜先查看美国国务院对目的地的旅行警示,并留好使领馆电话。
COMMUNITY IMPACTHubbard was formally designated as wrongfully detained under the Biden administration; his release comes as the Trump administration has lifted some sanctions on Moscow while pushing for a ceasefire deal. For local Chinese families, elders traveling abroad should check the State Department's travel advisory for their destination first and keep the embassy's number handy.

名词解释Glossary wrongfully detained:不当拘押;envoy:特使;travel advisory:旅行警示

Belltown is a neighborhood just north of downtown Seattle. KOMO News reports that on Oct. 13, Graeme Dobbeck, a clerk at a 76 station at 351 Broad St., was shot and killed. The suspect, Michael Fleming, a 33-year-old Seattle man, was arrested in Chicago on Oct. 20. King County prosecutors have charged him with first-degree murder, and court documents say the two had been co-workers and the killing was premeditated.

亚马逊假日季招工30万创纪录

Amazon sets record holiday hiring goal of 300,000

亚马逊总部在西雅图。据GeekWire报道,亚马逊计划今年假日季在全美仓储和配送网络招聘30多万人,包括季节工、兼职和全职,比去年多20%,是历来最高的假日招聘目标,季节工平均时薪20美元。零售业整体则在收缩:去年假日季零售商新增季节工为2008年以来最少,联合包裹(UPS)今年计划招10万多人,比去年少约9%。

Amazon is based in Seattle. GeekWire reports that Amazon plans to hire more than 300,000 people across its US warehouse and delivery network this holiday season, in seasonal, part-time and full-time roles. That is 20% more than last year and its largest holiday hiring target ever; seasonal workers earn an average of $20 an hour. Retail overall is shrinking: retailers added the fewest seasonal workers since 2008 last holiday season, and UPS plans to hire more than 100,000, about 9% fewer than last year.

社区影响季节工按小时计薪、门槛不高,适合想在年底多挣一份收入的成年子女和孙辈。另一项变化是:明年1月1日起,每周工作满30小时的季节工上班第一天就享有医保,以前要等90天;不过这条不适用于今年的旺季。
COMMUNITY IMPACTSeasonal jobs pay by the hour and are easy to get into, which suits family members who want extra income at year's end. Another change: from Jan. 1, seasonal workers on 30 or more hours a week get health coverage from their first day, instead of waiting 90 days, though this does not apply to the coming peak season.

名词解释Glossary seasonal worker:季节工;holiday season:假日季;fulfillment center:仓储中心

肯特(Kent)、联邦路(Federal Way)、伦顿(Renton)获提名联邦「机会区」

Kent, Federal Way and Renton nominated for federal Opportunity Zones

「机会区」是联邦2018年推出的计划,投资人到低收入地区投资房地产和生意,可以享受税收优惠;据《伦顿报》10月20日报道,州长弗格森(Bob Ferguson)从152份申请里选出全州99个地区上报联邦财政部,其中包括肯特、联邦路和伦顿。住在南金县的华人家庭,附近日后可能多出新住宅和商铺开发。新一批机会区要经财政部审核认证,2027年1月1日起生效。

Opportunity Zones are a federal program from 2018 that gives investors tax breaks for funding real estate and businesses in low-income areas; the Renton Reporter reported Oct. 20 that Gov. Bob Ferguson picked 99 areas statewide from 152 applications and submitted them to the US Treasury, including areas in Kent, Federal Way and Renton. Chinese families in South King County may see new housing and shops built nearby. The new zones need Treasury certification and take effect Jan. 1, 2027.

西雅图骑车教师遇难 家属起诉垃圾清运公司

Family of Seattle teacher killed on bike sues garbage hauler

今年6月1日,30岁的小学教师克里斯蒂安·萨耶尔(Christian Salyer)在西雅图第十二大道南与耶斯勒路(Yesler Way)路口骑车,被垃圾清运公司Recology的收运车右转撞倒碾压身亡;据国会山西雅图新闻报道,家属已在金县高等法院起诉这家公司和司机,称视频显示司机没打转向灯、没看后视镜。家里有人骑车或步行过路口的,要知道大卡车右转时视线死角很大,宁可多等一下。Recology表示不对未决诉讼置评,西雅图市政府不在被告之列。

On June 1, Christian Salyer, a 30-year-old elementary school teacher, was struck and run over while biking at 12th Ave S and E Yesler Way when a Recology garbage truck turned right across his path; CHS Capitol Hill Seattle reports his family has sued the company and the driver in King County Superior Court, saying video shows the driver didn't signal or check his mirrors. Anyone in the family who bikes or walks through intersections should know a big truck turning right has large blind spots, so it pays to wait. Recology said it cannot comment on pending litigation, and the city is not named.

找不到托儿 华州家长1年少挣50亿美元

Lack of childcare costs WA parents $5 billion a year

据《西雅图时报》报道,非营利组织ReadyNation今年3月调查了600名有五岁以下孩子的华州家长,测算出因为找不到负担得起的托儿服务,华州家长1年少挣50亿美元,企业另损失13亿美元。金县家长受影响最大,平均每年少挣1.43万美元,全州平均是9740美元;许多华人家庭靠祖辈帮忙带孙辈,补的正是这个缺口。州儿童、青少年和家庭部的数字显示,全州持照托儿机构平均1年收费约2.1万美元,有的家庭要排几个月甚至1年多。

The Seattle Times reports that the nonprofit ReadyNation surveyed 600 Washington parents of children 5 and under in March and estimated that, for lack of affordable childcare, parents lose $5 billion in earnings a year and businesses another $1.3 billion. King County parents are hit hardest, losing $14,300 a year on average against a statewide $9,740; many Chinese families fill exactly this gap with grandparents minding the grandchildren. State figures put licensed childcare at about $21,000 a year on average, and some families wait months or more than a year for a spot.

航油太贵 阿拉斯加航空第三季度亏损1.47亿美元

Alaska Air loses $147 million in third quarter on high fuel costs

总部在西雅图的阿拉斯加航空集团10月20日公布,第三季度净亏损1.47亿美元,原因是航油太贵:原先预计每加仑三块七毛五,实际是三块九毛四,今年因燃油多出18亿美元的成本。公司预计第四季度航油每加仑四块六毛五到四块八毛五,年底要坐飞机探亲的家庭,可以早点留意票价。同一天公司宣布,将开通西雅图直飞日本大阪的航线。

Seattle-based Alaska Air Group reported Oct. 20 a third-quarter net loss of $147 million, blamed on jet fuel: it expected $3.75 a gallon and paid $3.94, and faces a $1.8 billion fuel headwind this year. It expects fourth-quarter fuel at $4.65 to $4.85 a gallon, so families flying to see relatives at year's end may want to watch fares early. The same day it announced direct flights from Seattle to Osaka, Japan.

华盛顿大学工作小组建议计算机学院独立

UW task force proposes making the Allen School independent

华盛顿大学的艾伦计算机科学与工程学院,是全球顶尖的计算机和人工智能学院之一,也是西雅图科技业的人才来源;据GeekWire报道,校方工作小组本周发布报告,建议把它从工程学院分出来,成为独立学院,自己管财务。家里有孙辈在读或想报考华大计算机的,可以留意后续变化。校长和教务长表示暂不做决定,两个委员会要在2027年冬季学期结束前拿出方案。

The University of Washington's Allen School of Computer Science & Engineering is one of the world's leading computing and AI schools and a major talent source for Seattle's tech industry; GeekWire reports a UW task force recommended this week separating it from the College of Engineering as an independent school with control of its own finances. Families with grandchildren studying or applying for computer science at UW may want to follow what happens next. The president and provost say no decision has been made, and two committees are due to report by the end of winter quarter 2027.

美国文化一则American Customs

美国的「假日季」(holiday season),大致从11月底的感恩节一直到新年,是1年里买东西、送礼最集中的时候。商家为了这一季,秋天就开始招季节工,亚马逊今年计划招30多万人,就是为这一季备的人手。

The American holiday season runs roughly from Thanksgiving in late November through New Year's and is the year's biggest stretch of shopping and gift-giving. Businesses start hiring seasonal workers in the fall to get ready; Amazon's plan to hire more than 300,000 people this year is staffing for exactly this season.

美国人过节讲究给家里每个人、给同事朋友都备一份礼物,很多零售商1年的生意有相当一部分压在这几个礼拜。人手不够就雇季节工,过完节合同到期,有的表现好的会被留下来转成长期工。

Americans tend to buy a gift for everyone in the family and for friends and co-workers, so retailers do a big share of the year's business in these few weeks. They fill the gap with seasonal workers whose contracts end after the holidays; some who do well are kept on as permanent staff.

这跟国内过年前的「年货季」是一个道理:腊月里商场、快递都忙得脚不沾地,临时帮工也多。两边都是1年一次的大节,人情要靠礼物走动,只是美国把这件事放在了阳历年底。

It works like the run-up to Chinese New Year back home, when shops and couriers are run off their feet in the last lunar month and temporary help is everywhere. Both are the year's one big festival, when relationships are kept up with gifts; the US just puts it at the end of the calendar year.

今日一词Word of the Day

seasonal

季节性的;季节工就是 seasonal worker,只干一季的临时工

happening only at a certain time of year; a seasonal worker is hired for one busy season
