(Boston Orange 周菊子波士頓綜合報導)今(24)日是麻州首次辦理提早投票的第一個投票日。波士頓市長馬丁華殊(Marty Walsh)以身作則，下午一點多時，在市政府大樓內的投票站，投出神聖一票。

根據”國家立法機關全國會議(National Conference of State Legislatures)”的資料，全美現有37州辦理提早投票，以避免大選日當天，民眾得在投票站大排長龍。在2012年總統大選中，約有三分之一的選民提早投了票。

加州是最早辦理提早投票的州。麻州在2014年才通過提早投票法，今年首度實施。根據提早投票法，麻州市鎮從10月24日週一的今日起，必須設立至少一個投票站，一直運作到11月4日止，供選民提早投票。已經投了票的選民，在11月8日的正是大選日時，不可以再投票來改變心意。

在全美37個辦理提早投票的州中，共有15州從今天起辦理提早投票，另有幾個州，上星期已開始投票。迄今大概已經有300萬選民投了票。

波士頓市長馬丁華殊表示，辦理提早投票的最重要目的是方便選民，也鼓勵選民行使公民權。波士頓市共安排了28個提早投票站。10月29日那天，還會同時在波士頓市的9個選區，各設一個投票站。相關的投票站資訊，都可以在網站www.boston.gov上查得到。

波士頓選務局局長Dion Iris表示，今早投票站開門才25鐘，就有大約62人投了票。截至下午一點多時，已有大約700人投了票。波士頓市總共約有41萬選民，該局還正在處理大約9000個選民登記。

Dion Iris還特別強調，波市長提醒選民，今年的選票上有好幾各選票問題十分重要，選民應先仔細研究，再出席投票。

波士頓市長馬丁華殊原本預定中午12:45分時，投下他的一票，但沒想到從五樓辦公室搭電梯到三樓的市政府大廳時，排隊人龍已經繞成圈了。沒有動用市長特權的馬丁華殊，在市府要員前後陪同中排隊排了大約25分鐘，才和所有選民一樣，先到登記台報上住址，領取選票，再走到投票三角亭，填了有二張紙的選票。

波士頓市今日這第一天的提早投票，出席率似乎不錯，但英文報章卻指稱，提早投票的確讓選民可以更方便，快捷的投票，但似乎並未起到提升選民出席投票率的作用。反倒有些研究認為幫了倒忙。根據十幾個已經辦理提早提票州的情況來看，這作法對選民的出席投票率，影響很小。

麻州各市鎮都從今日開始辦理提早投票。劍橋市市議員張禮能(Leland Cheung)，昆士市市議員梁秀婷(Nina Liang)都各自在臉書上提醒選民，可以提早投票。梁秀婷還貼出自己已經投票了的照片。波士頓市議會議長吳弭(Michelle Wu)今日下午也出現在市政府大廳，回應選民提問。

美国侨学界举办“孙中山与青年、留学生”专题研讨会

美国侨学界举办“孙中山与青年、留学生”专题研讨会

在孙中山先生诞辰150周年之际，美国南加州侨学界人士组织“孙中山与青年、留学生”专题研讨会，探讨孙中山与青年之间的关系、以及对青年的重视，鼓励海外华裔青年、留学生加强社会责任感，以创新思维推动社区转型。该专题研讨会也是知名社会活动家方李邦琴发起的全美华人华侨纪念孙中山先生诞辰150周年筹委会主办的系列活动中的学术专题活动之一。

全美中华青年联合会会长任向东在发言中指出，孙中山先生在革命实践中逐步认识到青年和海外留学生是革命的主要依靠力量；而青年学生在选择革命领 袖问题上，也选择了中山先生。

革命初期，孙中山主 要依靠的是会党，兴中会的一百多名注册成员中，青年学生只有2名，广州起义和惠州起义后，孙中山开始考虑革命的主要力量问题，而青年学生在革命活动中的出色表现，引起了中山先生的注意。

1900年，同情中国革命的日本志士宫崎寅藏写了一本《三十三年落花梦》，书中描述了孙中山革命活动，并预言孙中山是中国未来的杰出领袖，海外留学生开始关注并追随孙中山先生。1904 年，孙中山在布鲁塞尔与中国留学生讨论三天三夜后，决定给予学生与会党同等地位，并表示，全心全意投身革命的留学生，均可作领导人。

1905到1906年，同盟会的379名会员中，学生的人数达到了354人。1905年8月孙中山到东京宣传革命思想，东京留学生一千三百人到场参加。他在同上海《大陆报》 记者谈话时说: “吾党自问，若不与此项学生联络，必不能达到吾党之目的。 ”

有一百多年历史的罗省台山宁阳会馆，当年曾出钱、出力支持孙中山先生的革命活动。罗省台山宁阳会馆顾问伍尚齐指出，孙中山先生认为青年人头脑新洁，志气不 凡，接受力强，他十分 注意对青年学生的宣传鼓动工作；孙中山 回顾他的革命生涯 时说“我 们革命的总机关，从前设在日本东京，当有一万多人，发起救国，提 倡革命风潮，这万余人不久便 回到国内，分散各省，宣 传我们主义，那时牺 牲 的精神很大。由此可见，青年和留学生在孙中山先生的革命事业中，发挥了极为重要的作用。

美华国际青年商会会长朱冰峰、南加州华人联合会白冬梅、詹瑞娥，加州大学洛杉矶分校研究员左军博士，美国越柬寮华裔青年联谊会佘军、罗省宁侨公会主席黄永华分别在发言中指出，孙中山对青年和留学生的殷切期望，至今仍具现实意义，他期望青年学生立大志干大事，肩负起建设共和国的重任。他要求青年“诸君志愿，须求大家之利益，办大家之事业。 ”他希望青年立大志。孙中山还认为要爱祖国，必须求学，热爱科学，才能造福祖国，他说，“要学科学，要爱国。否则 的话，你们的爱 国之心虽有，但是力量不够，作用也就不大了。有了学问，才能发挥 重大 的力量去爱国。 “孙中山深 刻地 认识 到了青年在革命与建设 中的重要作用，同时表现出了这位伟大的革命先行者对青年和学生的关心和爱护之心。

与会人士表示，从孙中山先生与青年和留学生的互动和认同发展来看，海外华裔青年和留学生应该继续秉持开放的思想和心态，并成为华裔社区发展和转型的动力源泉。（AACYF洛杉矶讯）

Meet the President’s newest (kid) advisor

The very first time I saw a 3D printer was on a trip to the Maryland Science Center in Baltimore when I was 8 years old. It was printing a phone case from scratch. I was so impressed that my parents enrolled me in a summer camp at a local makerspace where I could learn more about it.

I loved 3D printing and I could not wait to get a printer of my own. So I wrote to several companies that make them asking if they’d donate one for me to use at home. In return, I’d provide customer feedback. One company made my wish come true and sent me a printer.

That brought me to the annual White House Science Fair. That’s where I met President Obama. I told him he should have a kid science advisor, because we kids should have input into what we learn about in science class. And he thought that was a pretty good idea!

My wish has once again come true! The President announced he would have kid science advisors, and thousands of kids across the country -- including my little sister and me -- submitted ideas on what we think is important to explore today in science, tech, and innovation.

On Friday, I was happy to be back at the White House as one of the President’s kid science advisors, sharing my ideas with other official advisors to the President and students interested in STEM like myself -- it was so inspiring! Check out some photos of our day.

Because we are the future innovators in America, we know that we can change the world for the better. It’s really incredible to know that President Obama not only took my suggestion seriously, but that he is considering all of our suggestions, even though we are kids. It shows he believes that, no matter how old we are, we can solve the tough problems we’ll face in the future.

Thanks,

Jacob L. 
Kid Science Advisor

Malden Earns Gold Medal for Early Voting

Monday, October 24, 2016

The City of Malden is the recipient of a “gold medal” award by the Massachusetts Election Modernization Coalition for going “above and beyond” in offering early voting options to residents. Early voting runs from October 24th through November 4th and has been established to give residents additional options in casting their ballots. Although residents may obtain an absentee ballot if they will be away on Election Day, there is an explanation required to obtain an absentee ballot. For early voting, residents just walk up and vote. Malden was one of 34 communities to receive top honors in exceeding the requirements and extending the service to the maximum number of hours. State Representatives Paul Donato, Paul Brodeur and Steve Ultrino surprised City Clerk Karen Anderson and her staff last Friday and presented the award. Mayor Gary Christenson, State Senator Jason Lewis and City Councillors Barbara Murphy and Debbie DeMaria attended as well.

For more information about early voting, including dates and location, please visit www.cityofmalden.org/vote.

總統籲團結僑胞力量 吳新興說明配套政策

總統蔡英文（第一排中）出席105年僑務委員會議開幕典禮，並與出席代表合影。

總統蔡英文24日出席僑務委員會「105年僑務委員會議」開幕典禮致詞時表示，國家需要僑胞的協助連結世界，呼籲來自六大洲的160位僑務委員與政府一起努力讓世界看見台灣。回應蔡總統的期許，僑委會委員長吳新興在隨後的僑務工作報告中，說明僑委會如何引導全球僑胞力量，協助台灣發展。

蔡總統隨後由吳新興委員長陪同，參觀僑教成果展，吳委員長說明僑務是國家務實外交的基礎，僑教則是僑務的根基，並介紹僑委會每年提供逾千所海外僑校超過65萬冊的教材，深化僑社子弟與台灣的連結。尤其推行60多年來的僑生政策更培育出12多萬名僑生，其中東南亞僑生就占了近一半，可說是推動新南向政策的基石，獲得蔡總統肯定。

僑務委員會委員長吳新興在105年僑務委員會議，進行僑務工作報告。

吳委員長在開幕典禮後接續進行僑務工作報告，詳細說明政府的僑務施政規劃藍圖。吳委員長表示，回應蔡總統對僑胞培養年輕世代及力行民間外交的期待，僑委會擘劃未來僑務工作的5大工作目標，協助國家總體發展。首先是整合僑界資源，協助推展民間外交，讓世界看見台灣。第二是推動二代僑青方案，協助僑社世代傳承，並妥善利用海外信保基金的機制，鼓勵僑社年輕。第三，建構全球聯繫平台，支持連結國人與海外發展；第四，全力串連僑界人脈，協助新南向政策的推動，提升國家競爭力。第五是靈活運用僑委會的平台角色，調整服務布局，尋求跨界合作整合，擴大對東南亞國家僑務服務的整體成效。

配合新南向政策，吳委員長表示，僑委會將善用深耕的東南亞僑界網絡，藉由1600多所華文學校的力量，擴大招收東南亞學生來台升學，同時倍增技職僑生人數，為台灣及台商企業培育人才，也協助台灣年輕人走出去，提升台灣整體競爭力。他特別提到，行政院長林全上周五召集19個部會研商新南向政策，也指示僑委會和行政院主計總處研議增資海外信保基金新台幣20億元的可行性。以承保倍數20倍計算，海外承保能量將可擴增至新台幣400億元，將是東南亞台商強力的資金後盾。吳委員長強調，僑委會將持續致力團結全球僑胞的力量，協助台灣布局全球。(僑委會提供)

BAKER POLITO ADMINISTRATION AWARDED $1.5 MILLION FEDERAL GRANT TO INCREASE APPRENTICESHIP OPPORTUNITIES IN NEW INDUSTRIES

BAKER POLITO ADMINISTRATION AWARDED $1.5 MILLION FEDERAL GRANT TO INCREASE APPRENTICESHIP OPPORTUNITIES IN NEW INDUSTRIES

Efforts in Massachusetts will focus on the education and healthcare sectors

BOSTON, MA – OCTOBER 24, 2016 – The Baker-Polito Administration has been awarded  a $1.5 million federal grant to expand registered apprenticeships in education and healthcare to provide more opportunities for women, minorities and low-income individuals.

The grant will create 2,000 new apprenticeship opportunities over the next three years, and will also assist with on-the-job training for apprentices and related instruction in partnership with the Commonwealth’s community colleges.

“Massachusetts has a long history of strong apprenticeship programs through unions and the trades and we are pleased these resources will allow for expansion into the healthcare, education, and technology industries,” Governor Charlie Baker said. “This grant will help us achieve our vision of growing apprenticeship opportunities, and giving more residents the chance to learn valuable skills to compete and succeed in our state’s economy.”

“Building strong talent pipelines is critical to the success of our state and regional economies,” Lt. Governor Karyn Polito said. “Our administration has pursued new opportunities, and created a statewide strategy to expand apprenticeship opportunities into new industries with different employers.”

“I am really proud of my team for pursuing federal resources that will enable us to realize our vision and strategy around apprenticeships,”Secretary of Labor and Workforce Development Ronald L. Walker, II said. “One of the best ways to help individuals learn new skills and advance their careers is through apprenticeship programs.”

The U.S. Department of Labor on Friday afternoon awarded $50.5 million in grants to 37 states to help expand apprenticeships. The grants aim to engage employers and other partners to expand apprenticeships into new sectors and underserved populations, as well as enable states to conduct additional outreach to launch new programs.

In Massachusetts, initiatives are planned to market registered apprenticeships to new employers and support a network of regional coordinators to work with existing apprenticeship staff and the business service representatives in all 32 Massachusetts One-Stop Career Centers.

The Executive Office of Labor and Workforce Development, through the Department of Career Services and Division of Apprentice Standards, proposed through this application to create a pilot program to credential “child development associates” that will assist center-based child care providers to meet new standards set by the Department of Early Education and Care’s (EEC) Quality Rating Improvement System.

In healthcare, the Department of Career Services will work with two employers, each with multiple locations around the state, to implement a registered apprenticeship for pharmacy technicians and support advocates. The model will eventually be replicated.

The Education and Health Services sector accounts for 22 percent of all jobs in the Commonwealth, and continues to be one of the strongest growing sectors.

In July, the Executive Office of Labor and Workforce Development was awarded $200,000 federal ApprenticeshipUSA State Accelerator Grant from the U.S. Department of Labor that is also being used to expand and diversify apprenticeship opportunities and strengthen existing programs in Massachusetts.

Under DOL requirements, all registered apprenticeship programs must include five components – on-the-job training, direct business involvement, related instruction, rewards for skill gains, and a national occupational credential. 

The average starting salary for an apprentice graduate is more than $50,000 a year, and over the course of their careers apprentices earn $300,000 more, on average, in wages and benefits than their peers who did not participate in a registered apprentice program, according to the U.S. Department of Labor.

Governor Baker Declares October 24, 2016 as Massachusetts Food Day

Governor Baker Declares October 24, 2016 as Massachusetts Food Day

Massachusetts Schools Participate in Food Day Activities

BOSTON – October 24, 2016 – Today, in recognition of National Food Day, Governor Charlie Baker declared October 24, 2016 as “Massachusetts Food Day.”  To celebrate, Massachusetts Department of Agricultural Resources (MDAR) Commissioner John Lebeaux and other state and public officials joined students across the state to celebrate locally sources food being served at school cafeterias throughout the Commonwealth.

“I am proud to declare today Massachusetts Food Day to raise awareness about eating a healthier diet and having access to affordable fruits and vegetables,” said Governor Charlie Baker. “Our administration supports local farmers and is dedicated to making sure all of the Commonwealth’s residents, especially our growing children, have access to fresh, healthy food.”

“Today, we celebrate the many farmers who produce high-quality crops, as well as the many Massachusetts residents employed in our vibrant food economy across the state,” said Lieutenant Governor Karyn Polito. “I urge everyone to celebrate Massachusetts Food Day by purchasing delicious, healthy food products from your local farmers.”

“Massachusetts Food Day is a great opportunity to celebrate our vital agricultural industry and efforts to create healthier diets and a better food system throughout the Commonwealth,” said Energy and Environmental Affairs (EEA) Secretary Matthew Beaton.  “Throughout the year, the Baker-Polito Administration is working to improve food policies to support local food production and reduce food insecurity.”

Nationally, Food Day was started in 2011 to help inspire Americans to improve their diets and local, state, and national food policies for the better.  Every October, tens of thousands of Americans participate in local events aimed at celebrating healthy, affordable and sustainable food. 

“Farm to school is a win-win effort,” said Department of Agricultural Resources Commissioner John Lebeaux. “School food service directors can improve the nutritional value and taste of school meals while also supporting the local economy. Farmers selling locally-grown products to schools can earn a profit while finding new ways to connect with local consumers.”

There are about 7,755 farms in Massachusetts working on over 523,000 acres to produce $492 million in agricultural products.  The average farm produces $63,470 of agricultural products on just 68 acres.  Massachusetts farms provide employment to nearly 28,000 workers in the Commonwealth.  While nationally the United States witnessed a decline in agriculture from 2007 to 2012, Massachusetts was one of the few states that experienced a 1 percent growth in both number of farms and acres in farmland.  

“Everyone is a winner when food is sourced locally,” said State Senator Anne Gobi (D-Spencer). “Our diets are healthier, our food is tastier, and our farmers are busier!  Massachusetts Food Day is a great way to recognize and celebrate all of these benefits.”

MAYOR WALSH ANNOUNCES $250K SHERRIN WOODS GRANT

MAYOR WALSH ANNOUNCES $250K SHERRIN WOODS GRANT

BOSTON - Monday, October 24, 2016 - Mayor Martin J. Walsh has announced the award of $250,000 from a Land and Water Conservation Fund (LWCF) grant for the environmental restoration of the Sherrin Woods Urban Wild in Hyde Park. The LWCF is a federal grant program administered by the state Executive Office of Energy and Environmental Affairs for the National Park Service.                                                                "We are pleased to receive this grant to improve one of our natural areas that makes our city so livable and resilient," said Mayor Walsh. "We always welcome working with the National Park Service, the state Environmental Affairs Office and our communities to keep our neighborhoods green and healthy."   Sherrin Woods Urban Wild, a 24-acre natural area, is located in Hyde Park in southwestern Boston. It is primarily a wooded upland with two wetland areas and a large ledge outcropping, making for a varied natural landscape within a highly dense, urbanized neighborhood. According to Boston Parks Commissioner Chris Cook, the property was acquired in the early 1980s with help from a prior LWCF grant.    "This new LWCF grant will improve existing features of the site and add new features to make it more usable," Cook said.  "For the first time, the City will formally invest in new trails and trailheads to improve its access and usability by the public, create a signage and wayfinding system to encourage users to explore the extensive trail system and install seating at scenic overlooks."   The project will create a new recreational opportunity that aligns with the natural features of the site by installing two climbing areas at Pine Rock, the prominent ledge outcropping on the site. The City will also install new plantings for wetland restoration that will enhance the wildlife habitat and ecological functioning of the two wetland areas in this project site.    The community surrounding Sherrin Woods has participated in meetings and events at this site for several years. The Southwest Boston Community Development Corporation (SWBCDC) has partnered with the Boston Parks and Recreation Department to engage the community to better use this valuable resource. The SWBCDC has funded summer youth crews for improvement projects under the guidance of the City's Urban Wilds Manager Paul Sutton.   "Based on input from these community meetings, the project is incorporating elements preferred by the public," Sutton said. "A full community process with enhanced outreach will follow in the months to come with the selected project design consultant."

林揆出席僑宴 盼借重僑胞國際經驗 讓臺灣力量在全球延伸

行政院長林全今(23)日出席僑務委員會歡迎晚宴時表示，新政府上臺後將繼續深化鞏固臺灣民主，並為民眾創造更好的生活；另也希望借重僑務委員的國際經驗，給予政府支持與協助，透過僑界讓臺灣力量在全球延伸，並從全球得到更多資源的挹注，讓臺灣成為讓人引以為傲的國家。

林院長表示，臺灣過去不僅創造了很好的經濟發展，更在民主前輩的打拼努力下，成功讓中華民國從威權轉型成民主國家。今年520後，新政府接手帶領國家繼續往前走的工作，背負著臺灣民眾和海外僑民的期待，除肩負繼續深化民主的責任外，也必須帶領臺灣克服來自全球的許多挑戰，包含全球經濟持續衰退造成國內經濟成長停滯、國內就業機會減少、缺乏新投資、所得分配差距擴大、少子化、人口高齡化、社會勞動力減縮、年金問題等，都是未來的挑戰，也因此有更多落實公平正義的呼聲，另包含年金改革及建立長照體系、社會轉型正義等，都讓新政府面對嚴酷考驗。

面對諸多挑戰，林院長強調，行政團隊依據蔡總統選前規劃的施政藍圖，以綠能、亞洲‧矽谷、生技醫療、智慧機械、國防航太等五大產業，再加上新農業與循環經濟的推動重點，並以「創新、就業、分配」以及永續發展為核心的發展模式，希望利用創新帶動臺灣產業的升級與轉型、提升競爭力、帶動新的投資動能、增加工作機會，並建立更加完善的社會福利和保障弱勢的制度。這些目標不但艱鉅，且具有挑戰性，但政府不畏困難，相信一定可以一一克服困難和挑戰。

林院長表示，僑務委員們分布全球各地且事業有成，在海外看到不同的資訊及產業機會，期望借重其國際經驗，提供想法、資源、人脈，連結國內產業，透過僑界讓臺灣力量在全球延伸，從全球得到更多資源的挹注，共同協助臺灣克服所面對挑戰。

林院長表示，各位僑胞們在異鄉打拼事業有成，大家在海外努力奮鬥，內心更不忘臺灣，願意出任僑務委員，協助並配合國家的需要，政府非常感謝，藉此機會向委員們表達敬意及謝意。

林院長最後強調，全體行政團隊在蔡總統的帶領下，會繼續以最謙卑、務實、積極的態度，和全體國人及海外僑胞共同努力奮鬥，讓中華民國臺灣成為全世界都稱讚的國家。
