新的一年, 新的規定

華盛頓州最低工資提高到每小時 $7.63. 在西雅圖市內丟垃圾要注意回收 Seattle Public Utilities 網站 Recycling enforcement starts today Seattle wastes no time, gets recycling 從 2005 年 1 月 1 日就開始勸導執行的垃圾回收在 2006 年起將強制執行. 從一月一日起居住在西雅圖市 (City of Seattle) 的居民要注意垃圾的回收. 如果垃圾桶內有過多可以回收再使用的垃圾, 垃圾車將會拒收垃圾, 直到垃圾分類改善為止. 如果垃圾一直沒有分類好, 將會有兩次警告單, 並在第三次罰款 $50. 這包括一般住家, 公寓和商家等等. 當出車禍並打電話報告警察, 警察將會尋問出事的駕駛當時在做什麼. 打手機? 吃東西? 調收音機頻道等等? 這並不是罰款, 只是警察將開始統計這些令駕駛分心的動作. 當藥成份裡有 ephedrine 和 pseudoephedrine 時(比如 Sudafed 和 Claritin D), 除了並不會在貨物架上, 而是在櫃台後面. 買主並需要留下身份和購買記錄. 這是預防有心的人用來提煉毒品. 華盛頓州的一般車輛的車牌稅也將由 $30 調高到 $40. 大型車將會高些. 這個加稅是由華盛頓州議會通過決定, 將用來改善全州的交通系統. 但是大眾投票通過, 讓汽車牌照稅由原本的一年數百元, 降至一年只需 $30 的發起人 Mr. Tim Eyman, 將要再度的發起人民的力量. 汽車牌照稅一年 $30 就是 $30 元, 不要利用各種理由加稅.

Sea-Tac Flight Info

Sea-Tac Real-Time Flight Information Sea-Tac 就是 Sea-Tac. 請不要說是西雅圖機場 (Seattle Airport) 或 Tacoma 機場. 因為這不是正確的說法. 比如 Tacoma 機場? 請問是說 Tacoma Industrial Airport 還是 Tacoma Narrows Airport? 西雅圖機場? 沒聽說過. 大概是指 Boeing Field. 因為 Boeing Field 最靠近西雅圖. 所以 Sea-Tac 就是 Sea-Tac, 請不要改名了… Medical Side Note: Vitamin D does a body good Pediatricians suggest keeping kids active An overdose of … Tylenol?
