This paper aims to explore an other way to reflect on the self through woman, through the feminine, as a mode of being. In other words, in order to say about "how to re-think the self, in a different way," if I start from the issue of the feminine, how and why can this "a different way" be linked to woman? This question implies several more questions; what is woman? what is the feminine? what does it mean "a different way"? how can we say of "a different way"? Or, why can we take woman as the medium to "be" in a different way? If woman gives us a "way out," that is to say, if (S)he opens out a way for our out-being, ex-sistence, standing outside ourselves, that is, ek-stasis, does this enable us to overstep egotism? Then, how can we re-flect and say about this "out (as 'ex-/ek-')" in terms of woman, the feminine? This paper starts from these questions. Woman is an explosive overflowing force, movement, and process, which displace 'within' into 'outside,' as what Irigaray would call a "disruptive excess." Thus, I start from saying of the "place" in which woman itself takes place as overflowing. By referring to Derridian, Lacanian, and Heideggerian terms, I hope to foreground the ex-sistential space of woman.

Culture is way of life. And a culture is based on the view of nature and humun being. Korea has many kinds of tradition. Out of them, Korean character Hangul, food and medicine have been succeeded as they were in old days. So I tried to induce Korean view of nature and human being from those traditions. The common principle induced from them is Yin-yang and five elements. Yin-yang and five elements is away to cognize nature by Korean people. That means Yin-yang is thought to be the principle of nature. Nature is what life is born or produced. And mankind is a part of nature. Thus Yin-yang and five elements works on mankind in the same way as they do on nature. Mankind is born and grows on the earth. So human body consists of four, parts of the earth, which are light, air, water and soil. It is essential for human being to maintain balance and harmony in nature with nature and as nature.

In The Turn of the Screw, the go'erness encounters with the apparitions that harrow her throughout the story: she sees a frightening male ghost that Mrs. Grose identifies as Peter Quint, deceased former 'alet of the children's uncle, who had pre'iously shared the charge of the children with the pre'ious go'erness, Miss Jessel. The appearance of the ghosts hails the go'erness and thereby forces her to be jarred out of the comfortable habits of indi'iduality and plunged into a negati'ity de'oid of the socio-normati'e directi'es and guarantees. Such an encounter shows the idea that consciousness is a plenum of existence e'ocati'e of human mind as a decentered pandemonium. For the go'erness in The Turn of the Screw, the foundation to force her to experience the uncanny, as an inconsistency in the symbolic order, is particular. Its particularity is absolute in the same way e'ery one of us dreams his or her world. It resists mediation and cannot be made part of a symbolic medium. Just as Lacan's conceptions of desire, feminine sexuality, 'Object a,' not-whole, sla'ery, mastery, self-deception, authenticity, and act of psychoanalysis help us understand our contradictory social reality, so does The Turn of the Screw help us make sense of the way the go'erness, as the being who is capable of raising the question of being, questions the idea of being. In conclusion, the particular way the go'erness dreams her world is e'ocati'e of an excessi'e being, an anatomical complement, and a particular experience, such as the go'erness's encounter with the ghosts testifies to a knowledge that escapes the knowledge of the speaking being.

The aim of this study is to investigate the relationships among obesity, eating-out behaviors, and eating habits in the housewives living in Busan and Gyeongnam Province. In order to analyze the data obtained from 249 housewives, SPSS statistical program 17.0 was used. Also, frequency, factors, $x^2$-test, and cluster analyses were conducted as well as one-way ANOVA analysis. The results of the analyses have shown that their average height was 160.75 cm, and their average weight was 57.51 kg. Their BMI was investigated resulting in normal weight being 56.6%, overweight and obesity 37.0%. Concerning the number of eating out opportunities a month, 65.5% said under four times. Their per capita cost of eating out was between 7001 Won and 11,000 Won, being 34.9%. The purpose of eating out was family occasions being 44.2%. Those who were accompanied by them were their family members. and relatives being 63.8%. Their favorite restaurants were public restaurants being 47.8%. It was investigated that they got the information about eating-out through their acquaintances being 79.1%. According to the results of the cluster analysis by the factor of their eating habits, Cluster 1 was named as Intermediate Eating Habits group, Cluster 2 as Not Good Eating Habits group, and Ouster 3 as Good Eating Habits group. There were significant difference (P<0.01) in the difference analysis between the three clusters and the eating habits factor. This study showed that 37% of housewives in the Busan and Gyeongnam area were classified as overweight and obese and needed to change their eating behavior. The reason why obesity in the age group of those over 51 was higher than those under 30 was their going through menopause.

The conventional database evaluation method is carried out by the way in which the person in charge of each specialty database(DB manager) composes the evaluation sheets for corretionㆍrevision on the already-constructed database in a manual method and carries out the measurement and re-education of DB workers based upon it. As a result, that way consumes much time on career information and measurement works about DB workers, causing low time and cost efficiency and lack of systematic management of DB workers, resulting in becoming the hindrance factor of databases quality improvement. This research provides on-line, red-time results of measurements about the efficiency of DB production and DB workers by combining the static measurement with dynamic measurement by DB manager, both of which utilize the System. Therefore, the DB manager can contribute to the improvement of DB quality by determining the continuation of DB production by DB workers or carrying out the re-education of DB workers without being affected by time or spacial constraints.

Purpose: This study was to identify the meaning of the experience of 'well-being' of female college students in Korea and provide fundamental materials to improve nursing interventions. Methods: The participants were six female students who gave consent to participate in this study. This study was conducted between August 2006 and November 2006. Each interview took one to three hours. The contents of the interviews were recorded and dictated afterwards. In addition, the interviews were carried out such a way that the gathered information was sufficiently saturated. The data was analyzed with the phenomenological analytic method suggested by Giorgi (1985). Results: As a result of analysis, the following have been identified.: proper dietary treatment, proper physical treatment, harmonized psychological treatment, environmental-friendly treatment, and hypersensitivity to the mass media. Conclusions: The finding of this study offers profound information on the 'well-being' of female college students in Korea and provides fundamental materials to improve the quality of nursing interventions.

Den have been many construction projects in urban n We have a lot of problems which have to be solved especially against residence complaints existing building damage due to construction worts. We sometimes have to pay a certain amount of cost to solve the above problem, not in planning. In addition to, we have to suffer from work delay due to confronting problem. Almost all of these are due to blasting work to break solid rock to be excavated. Therefore, this study is focused on finding out how to reduce noise more cheaply. Four cases(4) as cheaper but more effective way have been tested to find out which way of local fence will have better moise reduce function in a field site. Where five(5) large breakers are being operated. It is concluded that more form and shape of local movable panel than the site of panel can be influenced on noise reduce.

Two defects have been pointed out in existing user-based collaborative filtering such as sparsity and scalability, and the research has been also made progress, which tries to improve these defects using item-based collaborative filtering. Actually there were many results, but the problem of sparsity still remains because of being based on an explicit data. In addition, the issue has been pointed out. which attributes of item arenot reflected in the recommendation. This paper suggests a recommendation method using nave Bayesian algorithm in hybrid user and item-based collaborative filtering to improve above-mentioned defects of existing item-based collaborative filtering. This method generates a similarity table for each user and item, then it improves the accuracy of prediction and recommendation item using naive Bayesianalgorithm. It was compared and evaluated with existing item-based collaborative filtering technique to estimate the accuracy.

Diesel particulate filter (DPF) has been developed to optimize engine out emission, especially particulate matter (PM). One of the main important factors for developing the DPF is estimation of soot mass being accumulated inside the DPF. Evaluation of pressure drop over the DPF is a simple way to estimate the accumulated soot mass but its accuracy is known to be limited to certain vehicle operating conditions. The method to compensate drawback is adoption of integrating time history of the engine out PM and burning soot. Present study demonstrates current status of the soot estimation methods including the results from the engine test benches and vehicles.

Radioactive materials are released from the molten core into the containment at the time of a severe accident in a nuclear power plant (NPP). Filtered containment venting system is a popular and effective safety measure installed to obstruct the uncontrolled escape of radioactive materials due to the over pressurization of the containment. Different designs of filtered containment venting system (FCVS) are available today, each being the result of extensive research and development varying in one way or the other. This paper gives an elaborate description of the different types of FCVS currently being used, the current usage status in over 17 countries and the legislations regarding it. The recent researches being carried out in this field has also been discussed in detail. This present paper focuses on the critical review of existing FCVS, reports the challenges faced by it and highlights the potential developments to overcome the difficulties.
