This study was carried to select artichoke (Cynara scolymus L.) varieties that can be cultivated in non-heated greenhouse during winter in Jeju Island in Korea. Artichoke varieties namely, 'Purple Romagna' (Neseed Co.), 'Imperial Star' (Keithley Williams Seed Co.), 'Green Globe' (Park Seed Co.), 'Emerald' (Ferry-morse Seed Co.), 'Italian' (Unknown), and 'Carciofo Di Romagna' (Lortolano), were raised in a plug tray with 72 cells for two months and transplanted in a non-heated greenhouse on October 5, 2004. The first harvesting of 'Emerald' and 'Imperial Star' were the earliest and April 26 and 27, 2005 respectively. Most of the varieties were harvested from early May to June 2005. The number of head per plant was the highest in 'Green Globe' with more than five heads and the lowest were recorded in 'Italian' with one head or less. The weight of heads per plant was more than 228 g in 'Purple Romagna', 'Imperial Star' and 'Green Globe'. The highest yield was in 'Green Globe' with 2,172 kg/10a, followed by 'Imperial Star' with 1,947 kg/10a. Accordingly, it is considered that 'Green Globe' and 'Imperial Star' are adequate for the high-yield cultivation in non-heated greenhouse in Jeju Island. They can be harvested from the April to June when cultivated from the early October of the previous year.

This experiment was carried out to investigate the effect of planting times on the growth and yield of artichoke (Cynara scolymus L.) in non-heated greenhouse in Jeju Island ($33^{\circ}28.110N,\;126^{\circ}31.076E$), Korea. Five transplanting dates (from Feb. 25 to Apr. 30) of the first half of the year and six transplanting dates (from July 30 to Dec. 15) of the second half of the year were compared. In the spring cycle, most of the flower buds emerged from May to June, and the emergence was slightly earlier in 'Imperial Star' than in 'Green Globe'. The earliest harvest on June 16 was 'Imperial Star' which was planted on Feb. 25. The highest yield of 856 kg/10a was observed in 'Imperial Star' which was planted on Feb. 25. Transplanting of the first half of the year, it was impossible to harvest in the same year when the planting was done after April 15 since the flower buds were not emerged. The flower buds emerged from late Feb. to middle April of the following year in the all planting times of the second half of the year. It was possible to harvest the first time in early April. The highest yield was 2,127 kg/10a in 'Green Globe' which was planted on July 30, and the yields decreased as the planting times were delayed. In the comparisons of planting times of artichoke, it would be recommendable to plant artichoke on Feb. 25 for the same year harvest and in July 30~Oct. 15 for the following year harvest in Jeju Island non-heated greenhouse cultivation.

Some after-dinner thoughts on the giants of infrared space astronomy. I here describe important events in infrared astronomy starting from 1964 when I started working on my PhD. Here I describe how I became involved in IRAS, Infrared Space Observatrory (ISO), Herschel, Spitzer and AKARI, together with important events that led to these great missions.

This study was conducted to produce heads of artichoke in July in Korea. The artichoke was planted in the Autumn and it could be reaped heads of artichokes in late of May in Korea. It can inform us that the artichoke need under some low temperature during the Winter to open flowers. In order to harvest heads of artichoke in the Summer two kinds of cultivar 'Green Globe' and 'Imperial Star' those were grown for 4 weeks in green house of $17^{\circ}C$ which were treated at 3, 6, 9 and $12^{\circ}C$ chamber for 4 weeks and then planted the 8th April. Plant distance was $150{\times}50$ cm. After 3 months most of artichoke of 'Imperial Star (IS)' made heads. Especially, the artichokes 'IS' were treated at $6^{\circ}C$ made heads 63% of plants but those at $12^{\circ}C$ made heads 33% and the artichokes (no treatment at low temperature) grown in greenhouse at $17^{\circ}C$ for 8 weeks made heads 5% of plants. 'Green Globe (GG)' made heads 28% of plants at $9^{\circ}C$ and 10% at $12^{\circ}C$, and 'GG' grown in greenhouse at $17^{\circ}C$ for 8 weeks never had made any head. The weights of head were 97 g and 86 g in 'IS' and 'GG' respectively. The yield of heads were 215 and 108 kg/10a in 'IS' and 'GG' respectively.

We discuss a new IRAS Faint Source Catalog galaxy redshift catalogue (RIFSCz) which incorporates data from Galex, SDSS, 2MASS, WISE, AKARI and Planck. AKARI fluxes are consistent with photometry from other far infrared and submillimetre missions provided an aperture correction is applied. Results from the Hermes-SWIRE survey in Lockman are also discussed briefly, and the strong contrast between the galaxy populations selected at 60 and $500{\mu}m$ is summarized.

Various ceremonial flags were of great importance to the rulers who wished to have the absolute authorities for governing the people. Perhaps nothing indicated the ideas, thoughts and symbols of a certain period and people than the ceremonial flags. The ceremonial flags used in the old China and Korea took the shapes of the heaven and the earth, representing the social backgrounds and thoughts. This study was limited only to the discussion of the heaven-shaped patterns of the ceremonial flags. The 28 constellations of the heaven, in the Oriental way of thinking, were considered to express the immortal powers of Providence and the political domination of the earth. Hence the Polaris, the center of the heaven, symbolized the whole family of king, prince, child born of a concubine and royal harem. Among the constellation pictures were those of Han period, wall painting of old tombs in Koguryeo kingdom and old Japanese kingdom. Referring to the Emperor's ceremonial flags in Daemyeongjibyei, symbolic meanings changed historically and the complete systems of the ceremonial flags were established in Song period when the divine person was drawn on the flags. Animals concerned properly with the particular star and the shapes of the star were both drawn on the flags in Won period and only the shapes of the particular star in Myeong period. In the Imperial enthronement of Kojong the ceremonial flags might be made by the examples of those of Myeong period and remains are now found at Changdeok Palace, which need a further study because the references in detail are not available.

ASTRO-F is the next generation Japanese infrared space mission of the Institute of Space and Astronautical Science. ASTRO-F will be dedicated to an All Sky Survey in the far-infrared in 4 bands from 50-200microns with 2 additional mid-infrared bands at 9microns and 20microns. This will be the first all sky survey in the infrared since the ground breaking IRAS mission almost 20 years ago and the first ever survey at 170microns. The All Sky Survey should detect 10's of millions of sources in the far-infrared bands most of which will be dusty luminous and ultra-luminous star forming galaxies, with as many as half lying at redshifts greater than unity. In this contribution, the ASTRO-F mission and its objectives are reviewed and many of the mission expectations are discussed.

We present a summary of our spectroscopic redshift catalogue of 404 sources in the AKARI Deep Field South (ADF-S). We have used the AAOmega spectrograph to target mid-infrared and far-infrared sources selected primarily from AKARI observations in this field for which we were able to obtain optical counterparts. Our sources with identified redshifts include 316 with $H{\alpha}$ detections at $z{\leq}0.345$ and 15 sources at z > 1 with MgII or $Ly{\alpha}$ emission lines. About 13% of our $z{\leq}0.345$ sources are dominated by active galactic nuclei (AGN) emission, although many show emission from both star formation and AGNs. The median Balmer decrement is 5.9. Ultra-luminous infrared galaxies (ULIRGs) were found only in the higher-redshift sources. Optical and near infrared data will be available shortly, enabling calibration of the line luminosities and spectral energy distribution (SED) fitting for these sources.
