東北季風減弱，進入太平洋賞鯨豚旺季，台東唯一賞鯨船晉領號22日首航就開紅盤，一群10多隻花紋海豚家族在蔚藍海面亮相，讓遊客驚呼連連，開心直呼「好可愛！」台東賞鯨雖不像宜蘭、花蓮盛行，但發現機率高，值得遊客來碰運氣。



6到9月 最適賞鯨豚「出現了！」晉領號帶領30多名遊客出海，一路往北尋尋覓覓，途中有多隻飛魚飛離海面，但曇花一現，遊客在海上受暈浪之苦，面對遼闊的海洋遍尋不著鯨豚的蹤跡，直到船頂的觀測員大喊，讓船上遊客精神為之一震！「花紋海豚一整群，往我們游過來！」雖然觀測員講得斬釘截鐵，但海上卻一片平靜，船長陳坤龍將船隻怠速，生怕打草驚蛇、嚇走嬌客。果不其然，一隻隻花紋海豚不久在海裡現蹤，像鐮刀的背鰭在海面上不斷出現，慢條斯里的換氣，還噴出小水柱，距離近到可以聽到換氣的聲音，讓船上的遊客開心不已。花紋海豚一群10多隻在海中悠遊，隨後擺起尾鰭就失去蹤影，過了數分鐘又再度在他處現身，讓遊客驚喜不斷。風浪平穩 發現率9成陳坤龍說，成功鎮往北的海域可以欣賞到鯨豚的機率約有9成，其實鯨豚一年四季都會出現，但海面浪況較平穩時比較適合出海，目前東北季風已經減弱，6到9月是最佳的賞鯨豚季節。他說，晉領號一年約有3000多人賞鯨，相較於宜蘭近30艘賞鯨船、花蓮有近10艘，台東僅晉領號苦撐確實規模較小，受限於成功鎮距離台東市較遠，離機場、火車站都有一大段路，所以遊客人數本來就比較少。他強調，成功鎮出海有機會可以看到大翅鯨、抹香鯨、虎鯨、偽虎鯨、短肢領航鯨及4種海豚，發現機率高，因此很適合民眾安排遊程預約出海。(中國時報)

Yahoo奇摩整合資源，旗下超級商城及購物中心合併為購物事業群，全年業績目標力拼2位數百分比成長，17日舉辦2017金店獎感謝去年表現傑出的優秀店家及品牌，同時從獲獎店家的實際銷售狀況進一步觀察到，近年空污問題嚴重，民眾健康意識提升，加上消費者願意買好物善待自己，日用品、家電、保健類商品持續暢銷，躍升為2017年度銷售成長三冠王。

根據Yahoo奇摩超級商城數據觀察國人網購消費趨勢，2017年仍以日用品、家電、保健類商品為主流，其中日用品成長20%居冠，其次為家電類5%、保健類10%；進一步分析發現，日用品業績成長最多的依序是口罩（106%）、家庭常備藥品（96%）、成人紙尿褲（41%）；家電類前3名則是冰箱（69%）、空氣清淨機（39%）跟洗衣機（30%）。

資料顯示，日用品成長最多的口罩，各年齡層銷售額都有2倍以上，男性消費成長動能較比女性高出4成，而最受歡迎的是醫療型口罩，尤其南部地區的屏東縣、高雄市、嘉義市三縣市的消費成長最多。空氣清淨機買氣也在南部大為提高，女性購買居多佔52%，又以19～24歲的女性成長1倍最明顯。

Yahoo奇摩購物事業群資深總監藍怡芳指出，以地區與商品交叉分析後，可發現2017年成長快速的商品，北部為洗衣機、中部為冰箱、南部為口罩及空氣清淨機，團隊在商品操作上，便會針對每年10月到3月為台灣空污較嚴重的季節，每天掌握當日天氣及空氣品質預報，透過後台管理數字與廠商貨源的掌握，只要空污警報發出，消費者隨時都能在平台上買到相關商品。另外，在健康意識提昇下，益生菌、葡萄糖胺也成為2017消費熱賣商品。

/ Staff writer, with CNATurkish comedian and TV host Ugur Rifat Karlova said he feels he has become a “real Taiwanese” after getting his Republic of China （ROC） identification card last month under an amended immigration law that allows foreigners with “special talent” to gain citizenship without having to renounce their original nationality.“From now on, no one can call me laowai （老外）,” said Karlova, referring to an informal Mandarin word for “foreigner.”“After I got the ID, I felt like a Taiwanese and I wanted to do more things for Taiwan, the future of Taiwan,” said Karlova, 37, one of 23 foreigners who became citizens under the Standards for Defining High-Level Professionals for Naturalization （歸化國籍之高級專業人才認定標準）, which went into effect in March last year.“It was a sense of belonging that money can’t buy, a sense of happiness of being at home,” he added.Despite having stayed in Taiwan for only 12 years, Karlova, better known by his Chinese name Wu Feng （吳鳳）, said he hopes his naturalization will encourage other foreign residents to contribute more.“I want to tell all foreigners that if you come to Taiwan, you need to cherish the society here,” Karlova said, adding that he wants to send a message to the public that foreigners can create more value for Taiwan, given the chance.Karlova is the host of a TV travel show called iWalker, which won him a Best Host award at the Golden Bell Awards in 2012. He was the first foreigner to win the award.He was recognized by the government for distinguished achievement in the field of art and culture, one of six categories of achievement for which foreigners can retain their original citizenship while receiving an ROC identity card.His naturalization made Karlova the first foreigner to be granted citizenship in that category.One of the biggest benefits of gaining ROC citizenship is that he can express his views about Taiwanese politics, society and culture on what Karlova describes as “more legitimate grounds.”Karlova also feels pressure to live up to this recognition of both his reputation and the international image of Turkey, he said.After graduating from Ankara University’s Department of Chinese and Sinology in 2006, Karlova came to Taiwan on a scholarship and attained a master’s degree in political science from National Taiwan Normal University.He chose Taiwan because his teachers and schoolmates who had previously been to Taiwan had good things to say about it, he said.Karlova entered show business after being invited by a scout to play the late George Leslie Mackay, a respected missionary in Taiwan, in a TV program. He married a Taiwanese woman three years ago and they have a two-year-old child.Karlova said he plans to promote exchanges between Turkey and Taiwan by encouraging more Turkish businesses to invest in Taiwan, inviting YouTubers to come and promote Taiwan and introducing Turkey to Taiwanese.新聞來源：TAIPEI TIMES
