  • The International Chamber of Commerce (ICC) has published revised rules of arbitration, which come into force on 1 January 2012 (the ICC Rules 2012). The ICC Rules 2012 apply to all arbitrations commenced on or after 1 January 2012, unless the parties have agreed to submit their arbitration to the rules in effect on the date of their arbitration agreement (Article 6(1)). The ICC Rules 2012 explicitly require both the arbitrators and the parties to make every effort to conduct the arbitration in an expeditious and cost-effective manner. The changes will force participants to define more aspects of their claims and outline the merits of the dispute earlier on in the process. The Rules also contain new penalties for behaving in a way that undermines the process's efficiency. The new Rules permit the tribunal, when making allocating costs, to take into account the extent to which each party has conducted the arbitration in an expeditious and cost-effective manner. Entirely new provisions relate to the emergency arbitrators, case management, and multi-party arbitrations. The ICC Rules 2012 take into account developments in arbitration practice and procedure, and in information technology, since the last revision of the rules in 1998, the aim being to provide modern and flexible procedures that promote efficiency in the arbitral process.

  • This experiments were carried out to know hatching power on treatments of cold temperature and hydrochioric acid Iron Late January to Early February. Used silkworm variety was Jam 103${\times}$ Jam 104 laying in Spring. The results may be summarized as follows: 1. The resting of silkworm eggs activated to Late January, to longer cold treatment was, the more effects of activating increased completely. So activated eggs were possible to incubation. 2. How to the light or short hours of hycrochloric acid were compare with heavy or long each other, it was inclined that the former seems to be worse than the latter. 3. On the interaction of cold treatments and hydrochloric acid, in case of short cold treatment, hatching power was better effect all treatments of hydrochloric acid than control, but no difference between specific gravity or treatment hours. On tile contrary, in case of more longer of cold treatments, hatching power depended not only upon the specific gravity, but also upon the treatment hours.

  • The 24 January 2020 (Mw=6.8) earthquake with epicentre in Elazığ (Sivrice) on the East Anatolian Fault Zone caused loss of life and property. The information was given about the seismotectonic setting and regional seismicity along this fault zone and aftershock activity and ground motion data of this earthquake. Earthquake parameters were obtained for five different earthquake stations which were closer to the epicentre. Horizontal and vertical design spectra were obtained for the geographic locations for each earthquake station. The obtained spectra for the earthquake epicentre were compared with selected appropriate attenuation relationships. The damages after earthquake were evaluated via geotechnical and structural aspects. This study also aims to investigate the cause-effect relationships between structural damage in reinforced-concrete and masonry structures, respectively. The lack of engineering services was effective on the amount of damage in masonry structures. Insufficient reinforcement and concrete strength, dimensions and inadequate detailing increased the amount of damage in reinforced-concrete structures. Importance should be given to negative parameters that may weaken the defence mechanisms of structures for earthquake-resistant structural design.

  • Seasonal changes in the concentration of free amino acids were determined monthly in plasma from the jugular blood of 50 thoroughbred racehorses that compete during the night between June and September and during the day between October and January. The concentration of most free amino acids remained relatively constant between June and January. However, those of glutamic acid, alanine, isoleucine and lysine tended to decrease and that of arginine (Arg) significantly decreased between July and September. The concentration of methionine (Met) gradually increased between June and September and significantly decreased thereafter. The concentration of 3-methylhistidine (3-MH) significantly increased between July and September and decreased thereafter. There were significant correlation between 3-MH and Arg. In conclusion, this study provided evidence of significant seasonal change in plasma 3-MH, Arg and Met of racehorses, and this was considered to relate to an environmental effect. Moreover, our study is the first to show 3-MH in plasma of racehorses affected by environmental change.

  • The purpose of this study was done to explore the pregnant women's decision-making process about their infants feeding method. Data collection involved the in-depth unstructured interviews with 12 participants from January 1998 to January 1999. Data analysis was done by the grounded theory method. The 112 concepts, 29 sub-categories were confirmed in the analysis. The sub-categories were again grouped into 14 categories: expectation, situational condition, inevitability of breast-feeding, social recognition, self-awareness as mother, harmony, consideration, pursuit of ease, effect of external environments, lack of knowledge, hardening, the best choice, control, and bargain. " Adjustment through recognizing of motherhood" was the key category that was related to all categories. "Adjustment through recognizing of motherhood" was a process in which the mother became aware of mothering and sharing, and in which she considered herself or infant's needs and their priorities. This research will help nurse to understand mother's needs better. Therefore, nurse will be able to assist mother making the best decision for herself and her infant.

  • [ $\beta-Cryptoxanthin$ ] content was determined in Shiranuhi mandarin fruits harvested at monthly intervals from October to February in Jeju Island. Crude carotenoids were extracted from both peel and flesh of Shiranuhi mandarin fruits and analyzed using TLC and HPLC; $\beta-cryptoxanthin$ was indicated the Rr value of 3.2 and retention time of 23 min, respectively. $\beta-Cryptoxanthin$ contents in both peel and flesh were increased gradually as the citrus fruits ripened fully until harvesting season (February). According to the harvesting time, $\beta-cryptoxanthin$ contents in the peel were $0.15\;mg\%\;(October),\;0.28\;mg\%\;(November),\;0.38\;mg\%\;(December),\;1.23\;mg\%\;(January),\;and\;1.71\;mg\%\;(February).$In the flesh, $\beta-cryptoxanthin$ contents were lower than those of peels, having $0.06\;mg\%\;(October),\;0.08\;mg\%\;(November),\;0.19\;mg\%\;(December),\;0.26\;mg\%\;(January),\;and\;0.65\;mg\%\;(February).$ These results demonstrate that $\beta-cryptoxanthin$ in Shiranuhi mandarin fruits accumulated during ripening of the citrus fruits. In particular, the peels had much higher concentrations of $\beta-cryptoxanthin$ and have potential for use as a functional ingredient.

  • Purpose: The capsular contracture has been the most common complication of augmentation with breast implant, a side effect quite difficult to treat. The latest trends in the correction of capsular contracture include total capsulectomy or conversion of implant pocket. In this study, in an attempt to correct capsular contracture, the authors performed reoperation which involved capsulectomy through peri-areolar approach and dual-plane conversion. The authors hereby report the clinical results of such correction of capsular contracture and examine the efficacy. Methods: The authors selected 46 patients who were admitted to the clinic from January 2004 to January 2007 (37 months), and performed dual-plane conversion through solely peri-areolar approach. Two types of operation were done: dual-plane conversion from subglandular plane or from submuscular plane. Results: The average follow-up time after conversion to the dual-plane position was 10 months. During the follow-up period, 83.1% of patients recovered from capsular contracture and were Baker class I, and in 10.9% the condition had relapsed into Baker class II or III contracture. Conclusion: This study has proven the effectiveness of the dual-plane conversion operation for correcting established capsular contracture after previous augmentation mammaplasty. In this study, all cases of dual-plane conversion operation was performed through peri-areolar approach, which can prevent the occurrence of visible scar on inframammary fold.

  • To know the impact of female pupal weight corresponding to the male cocoon shell weight upon fecundity, hatchability and percentage of non-viable eggs, the experimental multivoltine breeds namely BL67 and 96A were categorised into low, medium and high batches according to the weight of female pupae and male cocoon shells and moths emerged from low, medium and high female pupae were allowed to mate withmoths emerged from low, medium and high male cocoon shells. Both the experimental breeds of BL67 and 96A revealed a fairl trend in fecundity for high batch > medium batch > low batch. When data were statistically analysed, a significant (p < 0.05) and a highly significant (p < 0.01) increase in fecundity was observed in the medium and high batches of BL67 during November - December, 2002 whereas highly significant (p < 0.01) increase was observed in the high batches of 96A during November - December, 2002. Data revealed a highly significant (p < 0.01) increase in fecundity in medium and high batches of both the breeds during January - February, 2003. More interestingly, a significant (p < 0.05) reduction was noted in percentage of non-viable eggs in high batches of 96A during January - February, 2003. But no significant variation in hatchability was noticed due to the effect of differential female pupal weight and male cocoon shell weight.

  • For this study, an online particle counter was installed before and after the activated carbon filtration process of D water treatment plant where has advanced water treatment processes, produces average 900,000ton/day of drinking water and supply the produced drinking water to Busan citizens. We collected and analyzed particle count data for about 1 year. We inspected particle breakthrough in three out of sixteen filter processes operated at same conditions, i.e. 5th filter, 6th filter and 7th filter. According to the monitoring results, 6th and 7th filters showed similar results while 5th filter showed different results. When compared seasonal effect, the particle count for dry season was below 10 particles/ml while the particle count for August when monthly average rainfall is over 200mm was much higher than for dry season. In January and August, there was a difference in breakthrough particle size. In January, small particles in 2~3um were mainly detected while in August 10um particles were mainly detected and the size distribution was 40% of total count.

  • Lymphangiomas are congenital malformations of the lymphatic system. Cervicofacial lymphangioma represents 75% of all lymphangiomas. Surgical excision has been the treatment of choice, however the reported results have been unsatisfactory. Various sclerosants have been tried to treat lymphangiomas, with variable results and considerable side effects. Herein we report the results of treatment using intralesional picibanil for lymphangioma. Between January 1996 and January 1998, 16 patients with lymphangiomas, 10 boys and 6 girls, were treated with intralesional picibanil injections. All cases were treated as a primary therapy. Eight lymphagiomas were located in the neck, and 2 in the cheek, 2 in the parotid, 2 in the trunk, 1 in the oropharynx, 1 in the thigh. Dose and method of intralesional injection was similar to that reported by Ogita in 1987. Complete regression was observed in 10 cases and marked regression(> 75% size decrease) in 2 cases and moderate regression(75%-25% size decrease) in 2 cases and poor regression(< 25% size decrease) in 2 cases. No serious side effect was observed except fever lasting for 2-3 days. Intralesional injection of picibanil for lymphangiomas represents a safe, easy and effective way of treatment with high success rate. Picibanil injection can be used as a primary therapy for lymphangiomas.
