The characteristion of composite electroless Nikel palting on the condition of adding 3kinds ceramic dispersives, Al2O3, Si3O4 and artificial diamond powder were studied. Decreasing solution temperature for composite plating was required to depress the spontaneous decomposition caused by dispersive including enlargement of reaction surface. The rate of composite plating was faster than that of general electroless-Nickel plating without dispersive. this increasing tendency of plating rate was remarkable for the active catalysis, like diamond powder.

In order to depress PbO vaporization during calcination and improve sinterability in low temperature, a method for preparing homogeous Lead-Zirconate-Titanate (PZT) powder from aqueous salt solution by precipitation is described. In this method, single phae PZT fine powders are formed at above 500$^{\circ}C$. PZT-ceramics using these powders have high sinterability, and good sintering characteristics relatively low temp. (-high apparent density, low porosity, low water adsorption etc.)

Construction of an artificial wetland for the growth of Sphagnum palustre with emergent macrophytes (Phragmites australis, Typha angustifolia, and Zizania latifolia) was firstly tried and the growth of those plant components according to various environmental combinations has been monitored for three years. Above-ground dry weight of Z. latifolia ($1,500g/m^2$) was higher than T. angustifolia ($900g/m^2$) and P. australis ($500g/m^2$) under most environmental conditions. In overall, planted emergent macrophytes seemed to prefer polishing sand without moss peat as a substrate and relatively deep water-depth condition (20cm) rather than shallow water-depth (5cm). Despite of high calcium content in inflow water (> 15ppm) into the constructed wetland, S. palustre populations have survived in most experimental plots during the monitoring period. Substrate layer including moss peat with high surface-area might play a role as an ion-filter. After three years, relatively thicker litter-layer in Z. latifolia plots due to vigorous growth appeared to heavily depress S. palustre by physical compressing and complete shading processes. Most of all, for the continuous growth of S. palustre, physio-chemical characteristics of water and substrate must be carefully managed. In addition, companion emergent species should be also cautiously selected not to depress S. palustre by much litter production. We suggest P. australis and T. angustifolia as companion species rather than Z. latifolia.

This study was done to identify differences in depression, anxiety, and stress in Korea elders (n=55) and New Zealand elders (n=55). Methods: This study was conducted from January 24th, 2013 to February 10th, 2013. We individually matched Korea elders to New Zealand elders based on age and sex, and assessed a questionnaire regarding depression, anxiety, and stress. Results: The average depress score for the Korea elders (13.67/42) was significantly different to the average for the New Zealand elders (4.70/42). The average anxiety score for the Korea elders (11.42/42) was significantly different to the average score for the New Zealand elders (4.92/42). The average stress score for the Korea elders (13.54/42) was significantly different to the average score for the New Zealand elders (5.40/42). The depression score showed a significant relationship with anxiety and stress. There was significantly positive correlation between anxiety and stress. The study suggests that should be considered in developing nursing intervention to manage depress, anxiety, and stress of the Korea elderly people.

Environmental stressors like pathogens and toxins may depress the animal immune system through invasion of the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) tract, where they may impair performance and production, as well as lead to increased mortality rates. Therefore, protection of the GIT tract and improving animal health are top priorities in animal production. Being natural-sourced materials, phytochemicals are potential feed additives possessing multiple functions, including: anti-inflammatory, anti-fungal, anti-viral and antioxidative properties. This paper focuses on immunity-related physiological parameters regulated by phytochemicals, such as carvacrol, cinnamaldehyde, curcumin, and thymol; many studies have proven that these phytochemicals can improve animal performance and production. On the molecular level, the impact of inflammatory gene expression on underlying mechanisms was also examined, as were the effects of environmental stimuli and phytochemicals in initiating nuclear factor kappa B and mitogen-activated protein kinases signaling pathways and improving health conditions.

Seven textbooks for children used in homes and schools (sudangs) of the Chosun dynasty were examined to investigate how they taught emotional intelligence in traditional Korean society. The contents of the books were analyzed according to the 4 abilities of emotional intelligence described by Salovey and Mayer (1966): (1) perception, appraisal, and expression of emotion, (2) emotion's facilitation of thinking, (3) understanding and analyzing emotions, and (4) regulation of emotion to promote emotional and intellectual growth. The analysis showed that most of the books valued emotional intelligence and taught children how they perceive, appraise, and express emotions. The emotional ability to facilitate thinking was also emphasized, whereas the ability to understand and analyze emotions was seldom mentioned. It was also found that the regulation of emotion was emphasized; that is, children were educated to control and depress their emotions rather than to express them naturally.
