This study is intended to examine the modernization of Chinese costumes through historical events, and to analyze the characteristics of the costume modernization process. The modernization of Chinese costumes appears to have begun with the Opium Wars, and the Nanjing Treaty(1842), the Beijing Treaty(1860) and the official residence of western people in Chinese territory. Afterwards, in order to initiate change, the Chinese people themselves implemented the Westernization movement(1861-94), placing an emphasis on the westernization of external elements such as technology and form, but aspects such as costume, deeply saturated in their traditions, do not appear to have changed significantly. Despite self-empowering movements such as these, as western forces diffused deeper into the Chinese mainland, neo-intellectuals formed the axis of a revolutionary movement. A major example can be found in the Xinhai Revolution(1911) revolution, which forbade the binding of feet and shaving of frontal hair and partially implemented western formal dress. Through these factors, the modernization process of Chinese costume demonstrates characteristics of an adherence to traditional dress and partial acceptance of western attire. Through this, we may understand the modern costumes of China, which adhered more to tradition than Japan, which pursued western costumes actively within a similar period, and Korea, which rushed modernization due to Japanese authority.

The purpose of this study is to explore and describe the experiences of postpartal woman, Korean postpatal care that Korean women experience afterbirth, to find the meaning of their lived experiences and to contribute to the base Korean maternal nursing. The method is to phenomenological through participant in depth interview. The subjects of this study were 8 women who are 1 week to less or over 100 days afterbirth. Their age rang from 22 to 33. All available data was collected from 26th of March 1988 to 10 of July 1998. A tape recorder was used with the permission of the subjects to prevent the loss of spoken information. The analysis of the data was made through Colaizzi's. The result of the study was as follow: There were eleven themes and 8 structures, Structure 1 : Acceptance to the traditional Sanhujori, Structure 2 : Powerlessness, Structure 3 : Disappointment and Being sorry, Structure 4 : Attachment as mother, Structure 5 : Anxiety on bring up, Structure 6 : Praying the well being of baby. Structure 7 : Negative body image 8 : Information seeking, Structure. In conclusion, nurses have to help Korean women afterbirth who are in difficulties physically, emotionally, socio-psychologically as direct caregivers and educators. As continually finding out the Korean postpartal care. Sanhujori, we can build the our original maternal nursing.

Objective: This study aimed to investigate the relationship between leg stiffness and kinematic variables according to load while running. Method: Participants included eight healthy men (mean age, $22.75{\pm}1.16years$; mean height: $1.73{\pm}0.01m$; mean body weight, $71.37{\pm}5.50kg$) who ran with no load or a backpack loaded with 14.08% or 28.17% of their body weight. The analyzed variables included leg stiffness, ground contact time, center of gravity (COG) displacement and Y-axis velocity, lower-extremity joint angle (hip, knee, ankle), peak vertical force (PVF), and change in stance phase leg length. Results: Dimensionless leg stiffness increased significantly with increasing load during running, which was the result of increased PVF and contact time due to decreased leg lengths and COG displacement and velocity. Leg length and leg stiffness showed a negative correlation (r = -.902, $R^2=0.814$). COG velocity showed a similar correlation with COG displacement (r = .408, $R^2=.166$) and contact time (r = -.455, $R^2=.207$). Conclusion: Dimensionless leg stiffness increased during running with a load. In this investigation, leg stiffness due to load increased was most closely related to the PVF, knee joint angle, and change in stance phase leg length. However, leg stiffness was unaffected by change in contact time, COG velocity, and COG displacement.

The Purpose of this study is to examine residents' subjective satisfaction of the elderly housing environment and to suggest some major factors which can be used as basic design guidelines for the elderly housing. as the number of the elderly is growing in Japan For this purpose. data were collected through a questionnaire survey method, Some questions on their hope for the conditions of the elderly housing were asked to 265 old People living in the suburbs of Chiba city. Japan. Based on the findings of the statistical factor analysis, the major factors which affected on the elderly housing environment of the study can be summarized as follows ;(1)Factor1 is correlated with the space design element represented by the elderly dwelling performance and overall efficiency for the dwelling exterior space design (2)Factor2 is relative to the interior environmental element with Physiological and sensitive performance for borne services system. (3)Factor3 can be explained the moving and communication performance for Physical uneasiness of outdoor activities and request of public cultural spaces. (4)Factor4 is relative to the mental rest element with safety accidents for moving activities etc. and psychological isolation for the elderly.

This research analyzes the patterns in modernization of costume that reflects the attitude of accepting the Western culture and the differences in perception, during modernization period (1850-early 1910) in Japan. The Japanese attitude toward the Western costume can be roughly classified into three periods: impetuous acceptance in the early Restoration of Imperial Regime(1867-1883), aggressive acceptance in Rokumeikan period(1883-1887), and the coexistence of traditional and modern costumes after Meiji 20(1887-1910). A Western costume symbolizes wealth and power until Rokumeikan period, however, as it becomes more common, it is considered as an ordinary dress rather than a ceremonial dress. The exact opposite phenomenon occurs to traditional costume. Although Japanese modernization is initially forced by western ideology of power, positive reactions to western culture and changes in perception toward China leads to more active importation of western culture. This reflects the governmental effort such as the Foreigners Employment Policy in the early Meiji period, and the public also became receptive toward change. However, acceptance of the Western culture is only limited to academic and technological areas, while the traditional Japanese ethos(the Emperor system, Shintoism, patriarchism) is obstinately protected. Therefore, it can be inferred that such extreme polarization of modernization and traditional inheritance enabled both perspectives to retain their own characteristics.

Microbes within complex communities show quite different physiology from pure cultured microbes. However, historically the study of microbes has focused on single species in pure culture and most of microbes are unculturable in our labs, so understanding of complex communities lags behind understanding of pure cultured cells. Methodologies including stable isotope probing (SIP), a combination of fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) and microautoradiography (MAR), isotope micrarray, and metagenomics have given insights into the uncultivated majority to link phylogenetic and functional information. Here, we review some of the most recent literatures, with an emphasis on methodological improvements to the sensitivity and utilities of these methods to link phylogeny and function in complex microbial communities.

Essential amino acids involving in the catalytic mechanism of the $\beta$-D-xylosidase of Bacillus stearothermophilus were determined by chemical modification studies. Among various che- mical modifiers tested N-bromosuccinimide (NBS), $\rho$-hydroxymercurybenzoate (PHMB), N-ethylma- leimide, 1-[3-(di-ethylamino)-propyl]$-3-ethylcarbodi-imide (EDC), and Woodward's Reagent K(WRK)inactivated the enzyme, resulting in the residual activity of less than 20%. WRK reduced the enzyme activity by modifying carboxylic amino acids, and the inactivation reacion proceeded in the form of pseudo-first-order kinetics. The double-lagarithmic plot of the observed pseudo-first- order rate constant against the modifier concentration yielded a reaction order of 2, indicating that two carboxylic amino acids were essential for the enzyme activity. The $\beta$-D-xylosidase was also inactivated by N-ethylmaleimide which specifically modified a cysteine residue with a reaction order of 1, implying that one cysteine residue was important for the enzyme activity. Xylobiose protected the enzyme against inactivation by WRK and N-ethylmaleimide, revealing that carboxylic amino acids and a cysteine residue were present at the substrate-binding site of the enzyme molecule.

To evaluate the prognostic significance of $^{99m}Tc-phytate$ liver scintigraphy in patients with cirrhosis, we measured the grade of extrahepatic uptake (EHU) of $^{99m}Tc-phytate$, from 0 (absent EHU) to 5 (important EHU), according to the relative distribution of the radiotracer among liver, spleen and bone marrow. The results were as follows: 1) EHU score was correlated to the Pugh score (r=0.64) and to survival. 2) The ROC curve on an observed status of death was superior for EHU score. In conclusion, $^{99m}Tc-phytate$ liver scintigraphy nay be a useful prognostic method in patients with liver cirrhosis.

A ring R is called left weakly np- injective if for each non-nilpotent element a of R, there exists a positive integer n such that any left R- homomorphism from $Ra^n$ to R is right multiplication by an element of R. In this paper various properties of these rings are first developed, many extending known results such as every left or right module over a left weakly np- injective ring is divisible; R is left seft-injective if and only if R is left weakly np-injective and $_RR$ is weakly injective; R is strongly regular if and only if R is abelian left pp and left weakly np- injective. We next introduce the concepts of left weakly pp rings and left weakly C2 rings. In terms of these rings, we give some characterizations of (von Neumann) regular rings such as R is regular if and only if R is n- regular, left weakly pp and left weakly C2. Finally, the relations among left C2 rings, left weakly C2 rings and left GC2 rings are given.

The Gwangalli Beach, one of beaches representative of Busan together with the Haeundae Beach, is a tourist attraction, having increased tourists since the completion of Gwangandaero Bridge in 2003 and recording more than 10 million tourists in 2006. Although the competent local government office has conducted artificial beach nourishment/gravel removal projects every year to manage it, systematic monitoring and studies of erosion are insufficient. This study analyzed the changes in the coastline of Gwangalli Beach using aerial photos, tidal data, GPS survey data for the last sixty years, and examined how the Gwangandaero Bridge, which had been constructed on the Gwanganlli sea, has affected the changes. The results show that the area of Gwangalli Beach has increased 40% for the last sixty years, and that the effects of Gwangandaero Bridge on the coastline are insignificant.
