Millions people in the US suffer from foodborne illnesses each year. In the US, multiple government agencies work separately or together to ensure the nation's food safety for different audiences. FDA plays a key role in ensuring food safety in foodservice operations by providing the Food Code. School foodservice operations must follow the FDA guidelines on food safety and make sure that foods produced in school foodservice are safe. Despite the continuous efforts, school foodservice operations were responsible for numerous foodborne outbreaks. Currently, school foodservice operations serve younger children (<5 years) and children with medical conditions which make the food safety extremely important. There are many programs that foodservice operators can use to train and educate their employees. ServSafe$\^$ⓡ/tate or local food safety education programs, Serving It Safe, and HACCP workshop are common programs that can be used to train their staff. HACCP is a preventative program that can prevent foodborne illnesses before they occur. Although there are many benefits of utilizing HACCP and training programs, a majority school foodservice directors and managers still did not implement HACCP nor perceived their food safety training is adequate. Most reasons why not implementing HACCP program are lack of trained personnel, time, and financial resources in the school foodservice systems. The gap between what people know and what people do is another challenge identified as an obstacle food safety programs. Despite safe food sources in the US, continuous training is necessary to remove human errors and ensure food safety in the school foodservice systems. Future research is recommended to reduce gap between food safety knowledge and behavior. Foodservice operators and researchers may apply the systems developed in the US to their food systems.

Objectives: This study aims to identify self-resilience factors that drive right dietary and food safety practices in middle school students. Methods: Data was collected from 438 middle school students in Daegu using a self-administered questionnaire in December, 2013. The questionnaire consisted of 81 items with the following categories: general information, self-resilience, right dietary and food safety practices. Statistical analyses to determine frequency, average, ANOVA, factor analysis, reliability analysis, and regression analysis were performed using SPSS 21. Results: The results of factor analysis indicated that self-resilience was classified into challenge, adaptability, patience and achievement needs, and right dietary practices were sub-grouped into family meals, experience of dietary life, eco-friendly, balanced food, economy and bad food control, and food safety practices consisted of management of bacteria, hand washing and eating off a plate, safety food and food purchasing. The score of right dietary and food safety practices showed significant differences by sex, grade, and school achievement (p < 0.05). The economy factor of right dietary practices was significantly affected by the management of bacteria (p < 0.001), hand washing and eating off a plate (p < 0.001), safety food (p < 0.01), food purchasing of food safety practices (p < 0.05). The challenge factor of self-resilience significantly affected family meals, experience of dietary life, balanced food, economy, bad food control, management of bacteria, hand washing and eating off a plate, and safety food (p < 0.05). The adaptability factor of self-resilience was associated with factors such as eco-friendly, balanced food, economy, bad food control, management of bacteria, hand washing and eating off a plate, and food purchasing (p < 0.05). Conclusions: This study suggests that dietary education programs for middle school students could incorporate food safety practices, and self-resilience such as challenge, adaptability, patience and achievement needs to be effective.

재난의 특성상 재난이 발생할 경우 지방정부차원에서 피해와 재정적 부담을 가져가야 하기 때문에 효과적으로 재난을 대비하고 재난관리 성과를 평가하기 위해서는 지역사회 단위로 접근해야 하나, 현재 우리나라는 중앙정부 위주로 재난관리가 이루어지고 있다. 실제로 세월호 사건 이후 재난안전 강화를 위해 신설된 국민안전처가 2016년 경주지진사건 등에서도 재난컨트롤타워로서의 제 기능을 하지 못한다는 비난과 염려가 제기되어 또 다른 실질적 대안이 필요한 시점이다. 이에 따라 재난대응 유관기관인 경찰조직의 재난관리 활동 및 역할에 관심이 대두되고 있어 본 연구에서는 경찰활동 중 특히 지역사회 경찰활동을 중점으로 지방정부차원에서 접근하고자 하였다. 물론 기존 지역사회 경찰활동은 범죄 예방활동이 주 업무이지만 경찰서비스의 확대를 기대하는 사회적 요구에 따라 경찰은 범죄예방에 국한하지 않고 지역주민의 안전과 지역사회의 질서를 위해 재난대응에도 적극적으로 개입하여야 한다. 따라서 재난 발생 시 신속하고 효과적으로 대응하여 피해를 최소화할 수 있도록 지역사회 경찰활동의 역할 및 범위를 재정립하고자 하였다. 또한, 지역사회 경찰활동은 지역주민과의 협조가 필수적이기 때문에 주민밀착형 재난대응 및 안전관리가 이루어지는 것을 중점으로 논의하였다. 연구결과, 본 연구에서는 재난안전 강화를 위한 지역사회 경찰활동 확대방안으로 지역경찰의 재난 활동에 대한 인식전환과 사경비와의 협력 체계 구축, 순찰차의 재난예방 활동과 초동조치, CCTV 통합 플랫폼 구축 등을 제시하여 경찰의 재난 대응 역량을 강화하고자 하였다.

The high prevalence of pediculosis capitis, commonly known as head lice (Pediculus humanus capitis) infestation, has led to the preparation of a community-based pediculicidal ointment, which is made of common household items and the extract of Tinospora crispa stem. The present study aimed to evaluate the safety, efficacy, and physicochemical characteristics of the T. crispa pediculicidal ointment. The physicochemical properties of the ointment were characterized, and safety was determined using acute dermal irritation test (OECD 404), while the efficacy was assessed using an in vitro pediculicidal assay. Furthermore, the chemical compounds present in T. crispa were identified using liquid-liquid extraction followed by ultra-performance liquid chromatography quadruple time-of-flight mass spectrometric (UPLC-qTOF/MS) analysis. The community-based ointment formulation was light yellow in color, homogeneous, smooth, with distinct aromatic odor and pH of $6.92{\pm}0.09$. It has spreadability value of $15.04{\pm}0.98g{\cdot}cm/sec$ and has thixotropic behavior. It was also found to be non-irritant, with a primary irritation index value of 0.15. Moreover, it was comparable to the pediculicidal activity of the positive control $Kwell^{(R)}$, a commercially available 1% permethrin shampoo (P>0.05), and was significantly different to the activity of the negative control ointment, a mixture of palm oil and candle wax (P<0.05). These findings suggested that the community-based T. crispa pediculicidal ointment is safe and effective, having acceptable physicochemical characteristics. Its activity can be attributed to the presence of compounds moupinamide and physalin I.
