A Taiwanese woman, Ms. Li, and her friends planned to go diving in Palau, a diplomatic ally of Taiwan, but were mistreated by local customs officials, leading to tears at the airport. Despite having no issues with their passports or luggage, Ms. Li was taken into a closed room, forced to undress, and even subjected to a humiliating body search, including being told to open her private parts for inspection. Angered and humiliated, she questioned why Taiwanese citizens were treated this way in Palau, a country without Taiwanese drug trafficking. Taiwanese embassy staff in Palau promptly looked into the situation, attributing the increased security measures to a previous incident involving a Chinese national trying to smuggle drugs in their private parts. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs assured that Taiwanese citizens facing emergencies or discrimination in Palau can seek assistance from the Taiwanese embassy within the confines of local laws.

The Food and Drug Administration stated that red-shell eggs are not more nutritious compared to white eggs. Despite red-shell eggs being sold at a higher price than regular white eggs, many people believe they are more nutritious. However, the Ministry of Health and Welfare's Food and Drug Administration pointed out that the shell color of eggs does not directly correlate with their nutritional value. Regardless of the egg color, there are four types of people who should not overeat eggs, as the nutritional composition does not differ between red and white-shelled eggs. The nutritional value of eggs depends on the hen's feed and health condition, containing various nutrients like protein, phospholipids, vitamins, and minerals, easily digestible and absorbable. It is emphasized to be cautious with egg intake for individuals with high blood cholesterol, a history of arterial blockages, obesity, or fatty liver. Overconsumption of any healthy food can lead to nutritional imbalances, highlighting the importance of eggshell cleanliness and integrity when purchasing eggs.

Eli Lilly's stock has been on the rise, with its share price up over 50% year to date. Despite trading at a high valuation, there are two reasons why the stock may continue to climb. Firstly, Eli Lilly is struggling to meet the demand for its popular treatments, such as Mounjaro and Zepbound, leading to significant investments in expanding production capacity. Secondly, increased insurance coverage for Zepbound, potentially for treating conditions like sleep apnea, could further boost demand and revenue. These factors suggest that Eli Lilly's stock has the potential for further growth despite its current valuation.

Have you noticed that one of your AirPods always seems to be lazier with the battery than the other? Threads recently discussed the issue of uneven battery levels in earphones, attributing it to three common reasons. Firstly, poor contact within the charging case can cause one side to charge less efficiently, easily solved by cleaning the case. Secondly, the habit of consistently using one side more can lead to uneven battery consumption, which can be balanced by switching sides. Finally, leaving one earphone playing while the other is removed can cause discrepancies in battery levels, solved by pausing playback when not in use. By paying attention to these factors, one can avoid the inconvenience of suddenly running out of battery on one side while enjoying music.
