When officers from Siagongguan Police Station in Hsinchu County Police Bureau’s Jhudong Precinct were out on their late-night patrols, they noticed a pungent smell in the vicinity of a pavilion on Hejiang Street, so they stepped out of their car and inspected a 17-year-old youth who was the only person in the pavilion. The youngster had a mean and contemptible attitude and refused to cooperate with the police in their investigation, but all the while could not keep his eyes away from 19-year-old female police intern Lu Ting-an. Noticing this, the chief asked the intern to conduct the investigation. The minute Lu took over, the young man began to confess, “I have been smoking Ketamine cigarettes. I have more here. You can have them all.” Then he took out the remaining Ketamine cigarettes in his pockets and gave them all to her. On top of that, he seemed very keen for Lu to arrest him.
The young man obligingly let the police take him back to the police station for further questioning. During the whole process, he was receptive to the patient counseling offered by Lu, who told him about the many repercussions of drug abuse and asked him to stop indulging in narcotics. The young man immediately resolved to be a better man and kept insisting, “I will quit drugs, really I will.”
Siagongguan Police Station Chief Huang Chih-peng says that Lu has aspired to be a police officer since she was a child. She is full of passion and has high expectations of police duties, and she is spending her summer vacation at the police station to learn more about the job. Huang says that she is efficient at all sorts of tasks, such as examining intersection surveillance videos and catching drunk drivers, and she is responsible and assiduous. Lu, for her part, says that helping others, especially counseling young people who have gone astray, makes her feel very gratified. She hopes that in the future she can continue to wear a police uniform and help even more people.

新竹縣竹東警察分局下公館派出所員警七月十五日在執行深夜巡邏勤務時，在和江街涼亭附近聞到濃濃刺鼻味，隨後下車盤查隻身一人待在涼亭的十七歲少年。少年態度惡劣囂張，拒絕配合調查，但卻一直將目光瞥向一旁十九歲的警專女實習生陸庭安。於是所長請女實習生上前詢問少年。在陸庭安開始詢問後，少年立刻對她表示「我有抽K菸，而且我身上還有其他的，全部都給你」，接著將口袋裡剩餘的K他命菸全數交給陸庭安，並且極欲讓陸逮捕他。
少年乖乖配合警方將他帶回派出所偵訊，當中不但接受陸庭安耐心對他的諄諄教誨、告訴他許多關於吸毒所發生的後遺症，要他別再為毒品沉迷，少年還當場決定改過自新，並一再強調「我會戒的！我願意戒！」
下公館派出所長黃志鵬指出陸庭安自幼的志向就是成為一名警察，擁有對於警察的工作內容的熱忱與憧憬，利用暑假時間到派出所實習，各種勤務如調閱路口監視器及抓酒駕都非常快，相當盡責與認真。陸庭安也表示，對於可以幫助別人，尤其是勸導迷途少年，讓她感到非常的開心，也希望未來能繼續穿著警察制服，幫助更多的人。

A: Pineapples are in season now, so you should munch on more of those to get rid of floaters. B: Not quite. Enzymes can be damaged by our stomach acid if we eat the fruit directly. The doctor says taking fruit enzyme capsules is better for absorption. A: Most importantly, we should reduce our use of personal electronics to prevent floaters from
Rice is essential to Japanese culture, tradition and politics. People take pride in the oval-shaped sticky Japonica grain, which is still a staple even though total consumption has fallen over the decades. But since last summer, prices have soared as supplies have fallen short of demand. The government has long paid farmers to cut back on rice acreage, and change to other crops to keep rice prices relatively high. To cope with shortfalls this year, the government has released rice reserves. But the grain has been slow to reach supermarket shelves. Anger over that was part of the reason the Agriculture Minister
