The purpose of this study is to introduce the evolution of corporate family-friendly policies and programs, a recent business issue throughout the world. In addition, this study suggests implications for a corporate reference guide to work-family policies and programs by providing a comparative analysis of the typical stages of development of U.S. corporate family-friendly policies and programs, and by presenting model initiatives of Korean and American family-friendly companies. Just as technological changes at the time of the Industrial Revolution altered the relationship between workers and their work, more recent technological advances have again transformed this relationship, offering the promise of a society in which work demands a smaller portion of the worker's time and permitting the worker more freedom and control over work conditions. These new work arrangements have the promise of producing a new paradigm for work and family, based on which many industrialized nations have developed family-friendly policies already. Family-friendly policies and programs can be grouped into four discernable stages in the evolution of a corporate work-family agenda. According to these stages, most companies in Korea are in the predevelopment stage or stage 1. Development of scales to assess company family-friendliness is needed to create a family-friendly workplace environment, policies, and programs. It is critical that companies have champions who have the vision to step out in kent, and the determination to ensure that the family-friendly programs are solidly grounded. Companies should develop their work-family initiatives as an integral part of a program for managing diversity focusing on needs of women and minority employees.

Background: It is known that inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS)/nitric oxide (NO) plays an integral role during intestinal inflammation, an important factor for colon cancer development. Natural compounds from Curcuma longa L. (Zingiberaceae) have long been a potential source of bioactive materials with various beneficial biological functions. Among them, a major active curcuminoid, demethoxycurcumin (DMC) has been shown to possess anti-inflammatory properties in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-activated macrophages or microglia cells. However, the role of DMC on iNOS expression and NO production in an in vitro inflamed human intestinal mucosa model has not yet been elucidated. This study concerned inhibitory effects on iNOS expression and NO production of DMC in inflamed human intestinal Caco-2 cells. An in vitro model was generated and inhibitory effects on NO production of DMC at 65 ${\mu}M$ for 24-96 h were assessed by monitoring nitrite levels. Expression of iNOS mRNA and protein was also investigated. DMC significantly decreased NO secretion by 35-41% in our inflamed cell model. Decrease in NO production by DMC was concomitant with down-regulation of iNOS at mRNA and protein levels compared to proinflammatory cytokine cocktail and LPS-treated controls. Mechanism of action of DMC may be partly due to its potent inhibition of the iNOS pathway. Our findings suggest that DMC may have potential as a therapeutic agent against inflammation-related diseases, especially in the gut.

심리학계와 비슷하게 음악치료 분야 내의 세부적 치료이론 및 접근법들의 수는 날이 갈수록 빠르게 증가하고 있다. 이와 같은 다양한 접근법들의 개발은 특정 치료기법의 발전과 같은 긍정적 영향을 미치기도 하는 반면 지나친 세분화로 인해 임상적 또는 실용적인 측면에서 혼란을 야기시킬 수도 있다. 이와 같은 우려 하에 치료사들은 내담자를 위한 가장 효과적인 임상접근법은 무엇일지, 치료효과가 기대에 미치지 못할 때 전문성과 윤리성을 고려한 대처 방법은 어떻게 되는지, 보다 적합한 치료적 접근을 위해 다양한 치료이론과 접근법들을 융합 또는 통합 한 치료가 가능한지 등의 임상적 딜레마를 경험하기도 한다. 저자는 케네스 브루샤가 제안하는 "음악치료에서의 통합적 사고"(Integral Thinking in Music Therapy: ITMT)의 소개를 통해 위와 같은 임상적 딜레마들에 대한 하나의 방안을 제시하고자 한다. ITMT는 치료사들에게 내담자의 필요를 파악하고 접근함에 있어 다른 관점의 사고를 제안한다. ITMT는 다양한 치료 모델과 이론들을 수용하는 치료사의 사고 방법으로 각 모델들이 제 각기 다른 이유로 가치가 있음을 부각 시키며 어느 때에 어떠한 접근이 보다 적절한지 제시함으로써 내담자를 위한 최선의 선택을 위해 하나의 고정된 사고방식에서 벗어나 통합적인 사고를 하도록 유도한다. 이를 위해 본 논문은 ITMT의 기본 전제와 임상적 적용 및 실제 사례연구를 기반으로 ITMT의 적용 예시를 제시한다.

HPV viruses are integral to the development of cervical cancer. The pathogenesis has been extensively studied. To date, numerous HPV tests and products have been developed and successfully utilized in diagnosis, treatment and prevention of cervical cancer. The HPV DNA test, when combined with other routine cervical cancer screening and diagnostic tests namely exfoliative cytology, visual inspection with acetic acid (VIA) and colposcopy has increased the detection rate of cervical cancer. HPV DNA products could also be measured in other body fluids like urine, lymph node tissue, and serum. HPV association could also be quantified by measuring other parameters like HPV mRNA, viral load, viral integration and methylation status. Vaccination against HPV has been found to decrease the incidence of cervical cancer. Further, therapeutic vaccines for cervical cancer against HPV continue to evolve. All these findings pertaining to HPV could possibly decrease the incidence of cervical cancer in the near future. This review aims to give an overview of the HPV tests and products in use and those under trial currently.

Potatoes were first introduced outside the Andes region four centuries ago, and have become an integral part of much of the world's food. Potatoes were first introduced into Europe in the 16th century and Korea in the early 19th century. It is the world's fourth-largest crop, following rice, wheat, and maize. In the nutritional aspects, potatoes contain abundant vitamins and minerals, as well as an assortment of phytochemicals such as carotenoids and natural phenols. Chlorogenic acid constitutes up to 90% of potato natural phenols. Due to the high content of potato functional compounds, it has known that potatoes are effective in the prevention of various human diseases. Recently, potato 'Seohong' was developed by RDA, and it has reported that they have a high-yield and dry matter content. Processing industry of potato generates high amounts of peel as a byproduct. It was reported as a good source of several beneficial functional ingredients including antioxidant effect. This study was conducted to enhance the utilization of the peel of Potato 'Seohong'. The anti-inflammatory effects on solvent fraction was evaluated. The anti-inflammatory activities of Ethylacetate fraction was evaluated for inhibitory activities against lipopolysacchride (LPS) induced nitric oxide (NO) in RAW264.7 cell lines. The fraction inhibitory activity for tests with $IC_{50}$ values showed in the ranges of $50{\mu}g/ml$. This result revealed that n-butanol fraction of 'Seohong's peel is expected to be good candidate for development into source of anti-inflammatory agent.

Many Asian countries are suffered from various problems on water, which include the need for increased access to improves water supplies and sanitation through investments in infrastructure and capacity building, the balances water management system between development and ecosystem, and the need to reduce the human populations'vulnerability to water-related disasters, in particular, from climate variability and evolution. Decison makers are the most influential people in policy making and solving global water problems is central issue in eradicating poverty and achieving sustainable development (MDG). They across the world form an integral part of the architecture of national or regional governance. Their role covers a range of decision-making processes including passing legislation, scrutinizing government policy, and representing citizen through the election. We must ensure that these quiet but important issues get the political space, financial priority and public attention they deserve. Regional bodies such as the EU have also enacted legislation which introduces rules on water quality and other enforceable mattera across state boundaries. With this growing body of laws and policies on water issues, the role of decision makers is growing. Recognizing this role, decison makers' platform is essential to provide an opportunity to discuss crucial water issues in each country or region and for the purpose "2010 Parliaments for Water in Asia" has planned and organized to investigate our common issues and goals. During the meeting, we have an opportunity to observe water policy of Bangladesh, Bhutan, China, Mongolia, New Zealand and the Philippines and share the views on what needs to be done to move forward by decision makers for the future of water. In conclusion, the process of developing the decision makers' platform in each region would be ultimately essential point to increase the awareness of the developed and developing countries' roles, knowledge to clarify roles and responsibilities of each stake holders and finally be a major actor for resolving not only water challenges also issues of human settlements.

인간은 생활환경을 확장하고 그 환경의 질을 향상시키기 위해 문명화를 진전시키는 과정에서 많은 자연환경을 양적으로 잠식하고, 그 질을 저하시켜 왔다. 이러한 인간활동을 많은 생물종을 사라지게 하였고, 인간자신도 그 자신의 존재를 위협하는 환경문제에 직면하게 하였다. 이러한 사실을 인식한 인간의 반응이 복원생태학의 성립과 발전으로 표출되고 있다. 복원생태학은 온전한 자연의 체계와 기능을 모방하여 훼손된 환경을 치유하는 환경기술이다. 이러한 복원은 훼손의 정도에 따라 처리방법이 다르고, 그 규모나 목표에 따라서도 그 종류를 구분할 수 있다. 따라서 그 시행을 위해서는 생태학적 진단이 필요하고, 그러한 진단결과에 기초하여 처방할 때 비용과 노력을 절약하고 상정한 목표에도 도달할 수 있다. 이런 점에서 복원생태학은 기존의 생태학에 토대를 두고 현실세계를 탐구하는 실용학문이며, 그에 더하여 기존의 생태학적 연구를 통하여 획득된 개념과 이론을 현장에서 검증하는 하나의 현장실습인 것이다. 인간은 지구라는 생태계에서 생활하면서 어떤 면에서 무리하게 자연을 이용하였지만, 어떤 면에서 불가피하게 자연을 훼손해 왔다. 더구나 이러한 이용과 훼손은 앞으로도 지속될 전망이다. 그러한 현상이 인류의 생존을 위협하는 환경문제를 몰고 오는 오늘의 시점에서 우리는 아무런 대비없이 그 생활을 계속 이어갈 수는 없다. 불필요한 이용을 줄이고, 부족한 부분을 보충하며, 취약한 부분을 보완하는 생태학적 복원을 추구하여 다가 올 미래의 환경위기에 대비하여야 한다. 이런 점에서 복원생태학은 미래를 위한 생태학으로 인정될 수 있을 것이다.

Potatoes were first introduced outside the Andes region four centuries ago, and have become an integral part of much of the world's food. Potatoes were first introduced into Europe in the 16th century and Korea in the early 19th century. Potatoes have a short growing season, high production per unit area, relatively strong environmental adaptability, and are cultivated in more than 130 countries around the world. It is the world's fourth-largest crop, following rice, wheat, bean and maize. In the nutritional aspects, potatoes contain abundant vitamins and minerals, as well as an assortment of phytochemicals such as carotenoids and natural phenols. Due to the high content of potato functional compounds, it has known that potatoes are effective in the prevention of various human diseases. In particular, the potato contains a large amount of polar compounds, including the saponin in the polar compounds, and the physiological activity of the saponins, such as immunity enhancement, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory is known. In this study, the antioxidative activity of polar compounds from five potatoes was examined by cell based anti-oxidation assay. The smallest amount of ROS(Reactive oxygen species) was generated when the compound was derived from 'Haryung' and 'hongyoung' and strong SOD(Superoxide dismutase) activity was observed in 'Sumi' and 'Jayoung'. The results of this study reveal the antioxidative effect of polar compounds extracted from various kind of potatoes, which will enable the acquisition of new bioactive candidates and the establishment of new profit generation models for farmers
