These studies were conducted to investigate the effects of feeding dried leftover food (DLF) on growth, feed conversion and carcass characteristics of growing and finishing pigs. In experiment 1, seventy-five three-way cross-hybrids ($Yorkshire{\times}Landrace{\times}Duroc$) pigs weighing approximately 22 kg of body weight on average were assigned to five treatments in a completely randomized design. Each treatment had three replications with five pigs per replication. All pigs were fed experimental diets for 60 days. In experiment 2, seventy-five three-way cross-hybrids pigs weighing approximately 70 kg of body weight were fed experimental diets for 49 days. Each treatment had three replications with five pigs per replication. The treatments included 1) group offered control diet without DLF, 2) group offered diet containing DLF at 25%, 3) group offered diet containing DLF at 50%, 4) group offerred diet containing DLF at 25% with 10% higher protein level and 5) group offerred diet containing DLF at 50% and 20% higher protein level. Average daily gain of growing pigs was highest in control group among all the treatment groups except group offered diet containing DLF at 25% with no significant difference (P>0.05). Feed intake of DLF-offered groups were lower than that of control group while feed intake of groups fed diets containing DLF at 50% with 20% higher protein level was significantly higher (P<0.05) than that of control group. Feed conversion of growing pigs was not significantly different amont treatments although it seemed to be slightly improved in groups fed diets containing DLF at 25%. Average daily gain of finishing pigs fed diets containing DLF was significantly lower than that of control group. However there was no significant differences in average daily gain between groups fed diets containing DLF at 25% with 10% higher protein level and control group (P>0.05). Feed intakes were significantly decreased in DLF-fed groups compared to control group while there was no significant differences in feed intake between groups fed diets containing DLF with 10% and 20% higher protein levels and control group (P>0.05). Feed conversion was lowest in groups fed diets containing DLF at 25% with 10% higher protein level. However, there were no significant differences in feed conversion between groups fed diets containing DLF at 25% with 10% higher protein level and control group. Feed conversion of groups fed diets containing DLF at 50% was significantly higher than that of control group (P<0.05). Carcass weight was decreased with increasing levels of DLF in the diets. There were no significant differences in dressing percentage, backfat thickness and carcass grade among treatments. Feed cost per 1 kg body weight gain of finishing pigs was lowest in groups fed diets containing DLF at 25% with 10% higher protein level.

Meal menus were developed and applied for rural elderly of Gangwon and Chungnam areas at agricultural off-season. Amounts of the major nutrients of carbohydrate, protein, lipid, and calorie considered in the menu based on the dietary reference intakes(DRI) of the elderly aged over 65 years were 97.5g, 22.5g, 13.3g, and 600kcal, respectively. In Chungnam, softness and overall acceptance of rice in menu 4, consisted of cereals and rice, kimchi stew with tuna, pan-fried bulgogi mushroom, seasoned dropwort carrot, kimchi, and banana, scored the highest values of 8.5 out of 9.0point hedonic scale (p<0.05). In Gangwon, soup and side dish of menu 3 (rice, frozen pollack pot stew, meatball fried in egg, seasoned sea lettuce, and banana) scored significantly the highest of all (p<0.05). Overall acceptance of all the menus were high over 7.8 without significance in Chungnam. Overall acceptance of the menu 3 scored significantly the highest with value of 8.5 and menu 4 (rice, spicy chicken soup, seasoned bean sprouts, broiled brown seaweed trunk, kimchi, tomato) had significantly the lowest value with value of 7.8 in Gangwon(p<0.05). The total leftover volume of menu 4 was significantly the highest with score of 56g and the menu 4 showed the highest unit cost of 2,900won in Chungnam. However, the total leftover volume of all menus did not show significance ranging from 9g to 19g in Gangwon.

The purpose of this study was to understand the management status of food wastes in school meal to find the effective ways that would reduce and recycle them. Data was collected using questionnaires from 223 school dietitians located in Jeonbuk area. The results were as followed : 1) Waste was managed by the dietitians(54.7%) and cook(42.2%). The waste disposal contract was made by dietitians(65.0%), executives(31.4%). Therefore, school dietitians had primary responsibilities in the waste management. 2) As disposal ways, 48.9% processed municipal solid waste and food waste together and 46.6% processed separately. 3) A half of schools(52.9%) produced food wastes weighed under 10$\sim$15kg daily and using food wastes as animal food for farms was most popular method to dispose(87.4%). 4) Reasons to have food-wastes were disliking the taste of menu(50.2%) and the inappropriate ways of dealing with remaining food(64.1%) and donating to food bank(33.6%) in order. 5) The suggested ways to reduce the food-waste was to improve on cooking method(72.2%), changing of portion size(61.0%), measuring the amount of leftover food(53.4%) and requesting cooperation to educators(52.9%). 6) The reported consequences of reducing the food waste were: lowered grocery expenses(46.2%), and inspiring students on helping environmental preservation(23.8%). Therefore, the administration should work on finding a method to reduce food-waste and a way to use these resources efficiently. It is important to induct student's attitude on recycling remaining products by using food bank via nutrition education. Dietitian also should consider to reduce the leftover of food by using a standardized recipe.

The aim of this study was to develop various types of a dish frequency questionnaire (DFQ) for estimating the habitual sodium intake and to evaluate the validity of a 125 item dish frequency questionnaire (DFQ 125) with the DFQ 70, DFQ 36 and DFQ 15. For the DFQ 125, one hundred and twenty five dish items were selected based on the information of sodium content of a one serving size, consumption frequency and dish items that contributed most to the variation of sodium intake. Frequency of consumption was determined through nine categories ranging from more than 3 times a day to almost never to indicate how often the specified amount of each food item was consumed during the past 6 months. The sodium intake estimated with DFQ 125 was $5775.0{\pm}3636.3mg$, 12.6% higher than that estimated with a 24 hr urine analysis ($5009.7{\pm}1541.9mg$) and significant correlation was observed between them (r=0.3315, p<0.001). When sodium content in broth leftover was subtracted from the total intake, the actual sodium intakes was decreased to $5309.6{\pm}3076.6mg$, which was 3.2% higher than that with a 24-hr urine analysis. Overall, 56% of subjects in the lowest quintile of sodium intake computed with DFQ 125 were also in the lowest of adjacent quintile while categorization into the opposite quintile were 4.9%. DFQ 70 was developed from DFQ 125 by omitting the food items not frequently consumed, selecting the dish items that showed higher sodium content per one portion size and higher consumption frequency. The sodium intake estimated with DFQ 70 ($5026.6{\pm}3107.1mg$) showed only 0.2% difference from that estimated with a 24-hr urine analysis, significant correlation with it (r=0.3199, p<0.001) and higher proportion of subjects to be classified into the same or adjacent quintile. The sodium intake estimated with DFQ 36 or DFQ 15 was also significancy correlated with that estimated with a 24-hr urine analysis (r=0.3441, p<0.001; r=0.321, p<0.001 respectively) and more. The proportion of subjects was classified into the same or adjacent quintile. However, the actual sodium intake estimated with DFQ 36 or DFQ 15 were $3534.0{\pm}1804.6mg\;and\;2508.0{\pm}1261.5mg$, respectively, 31.3% or 51.3% less than that estimated with a 24-hr urine analysis. It seems the DFQ 125 with subtraction of sodium content in broth leftover or DFQ 70 can be used quantitatively to estimate sodium intake of adults. DFQ 36 or DFQ 15 can be used as a screening tool or to assess the changes of sodium intake after nutrition education.

Gravity, magnetic and VLF surveys were carried out to investigate the dimension, nature and stability of the waste materials filled in the Seokdae landfill, Pusan. The Seokdae landfill, which is located in a former valley, was used as a dump for mainly domestic-type waste materials for 6 years from 1987. The landfill site is classfied into A, B, C and D areas according to the sequence of dumping period. The Bouguer gravity anomaly map shows maximum variation of 3.1 mgals on the landfill and its general appearance has close relation with the thickness of waste filled. The local variation of anomaly, however, reflect the degree of compactness of waste materials which may be affected by the nature of waste and dumping time. In the case of area A, where dumping process was terminated at the very last stage, most part show negative anomaly compared to other areas. We think that the composition of the waste materials in the area A is high in leftover food and paper trash and they are still in uncompacted condition. In area B, the general trend of variation of gravity anomaly is appeared to be high anomaly in northern part and decrease to the southern part. This is well matched with the prelandfill topography of the landfill site. The southern part of area B is located in the center of valley and its present surface is comparatively rugged, which may be due to the differential settlement of deep burried waste. The thickness of waste in area C is relatively thin, but the gravity anomaly appears to be low. Considering the present condition of surface, it can be inferred that low density wastes such as leftover food were mainly filled in this area. Area D, as in the case of area B, shows gravity anomaly that has close relation with the prelandfill topography. Magnetic data show the variation of total field intensity varies in the range of 46600~51000 nT, and reach maximum anomaly of 4400 nT. The overall pattern of magnetic anomaly well reflects the distribution of magnetic materials in the landfill. The result of VLF survey reveals several low resistivity zones, which may serve as underground passages for contaminant flow, in the area C located near the small Village.

The schools in the survey consisted of 61 schools where foodservice was managed by themselves and 49 schools where it was done cooperatively. According to the style managed, the urban style was 42 schools, the rural style was 46, and the island style was 22. With regard to the amount for each student that parents have to pay. it was 745 won at schools managed by themselves and 616 won at schools managed cooperatively. The budgeted amount was 75 won at schools managed by themselves and 97 won at schools managed cooperatively. The result showed that parents at schools managed for themselves paid much more for the cost of food and management. The mean area of kitchens was 31 pyong (102 sq. meters) in environment of cooking utilities, and management was done wherever they were needed. The budgeted amount was supplied from the Educational Office and parents. In the situation of utilities and instruments for cooking, the places to wash hands and flush toilets, which were regarded as sanitary facilities were insufficient. The rates of containing measuring instruments and thermometers for cooking were also insufficient. The list to be considered in the management of menu was concentrated on raising acceptance of students served, based on the order of the tastes of students served, the quantity of the cost, nutrition needed, and then facilities. The replies that leftover food was thrown away after meals were numerous and the rate of leftover food was reflected on the menu. In purchase and management, the rate of food needed to be purchased was calculated through experience. A private contract was chosen to purchase food. The frequency of purchasing food was usually once a day, which would nutritists examined food, concentrating on the order of quality, number, and price. In the management of operation, a schedule for making food was seldom formed, referring to it only at the time needed. All the food was made in a day but some special foods were made the day before they would be required. It shows the situation was thought to be the most important. Guidance for sanitation was carried out once a month and the content of the guidance was about the sanitary treatment of food. With regard to degree of satisfaction with the management of meal service, all the dietitian at schools managed for themselves and cooperatively were somewhat satisfied with all the questions about the budgeted amount of food, and management, the management of purchase, operation, and sanitation. However, they were not satisfied with the environment of facilities.

Commercial tofu was cut and re-packed in a vacuum container, an airtight container and an open tofu tray in an effort to assess the effects of vacuum containers on the shelf life of leftover tofu. The re-packed tofu were stored at $5^{\circ}C$ and $25^{\circ}C$ for the enumeration of total bacteria and coliforms. We also measured changes in color, pH, and opacity. The vacuum retarded the bacterial growth under $10^5$ CFU/mL for up to 12 days at $5^{\circ}C$. The color of the tofu was unaffected by the container type at both storage temperatures, whereas the pH and opacity of the immersion solution were altered less profoundly by storage in the vacuum container at $5^{\circ}C$. However, we noted no significant differences in bacterial growths, pH, and opacity among container types at $25^{\circ}C$. The results of this study showed that the usage of vacuum containers may be a favorable method for the preservation of tofu under refrigerated conditions.

The development of the oil refining industry has resulted in an annual 120 million tons of sulphur, which is a by-product of the desulphurization process. To exploit this abundance, the applications of sulphur must be expanded. as excellent durability of reuse of leftover sulphur which has high potential for utilization in construction materials, the study is actively in progress. Meanwhile, there has been active research on semi-rigid pavements that draw on the strengths and overcome the weaknesses of asphalt and concrete pavements. Acrylate is used to prevent cracking but involves a high cost, thus, an alternative material is required. As such, this study presents methods on the reuse of leftover sulphur and examines the engineering performance of grout containing sulfur polymer emulsion (SPE) for use in semi-rigid pavements. Our analysis shows that grout in which 30% of acrylate is replaced with SPE has superior properties in terms of time of flow and strength compared to regular grout. However, performance declined when more than 50% of acrylate was replaced by SPE, indicating that the optimum replacement level is 30%. Through SEM analysis, we found that grout with utra harding cement in this study at three hours had similar hydration properties to that of Type 1 Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) at seven days, and maintained the properties regardless of grout containing SPE. OPC and grout with a replacement level of 30% displayed similar levels of chloride invasion resistance, whereas grout without SPE was far less resistant. Within the scope of this paper, the optimum replacement level of acrylate with SPE was found to be 30% in consideration of various properties such as time of flow, strength, and chloride invasion resistance.

This study aims at the observation of the Real in the Post-Lacanian theory. It is focused on two questions as ideology and fantasy. On this basis Slavoj $\v{Z}i\v{z}ek$ has rearticulated the theory of ideology by reexamining Althusser's version of it critically. The ideology is the logic of fantasy based on the foreclosure. And the ethical act of identifying with the symptom is absolutely called for in order to radically rearticulate it. The really key element in the concept is now found to be Lacanian object a, the symptom as jouissance. In additional, the two part of the study, far from belonging to two different domains, that of political analysis and artistic analysis, relate to each other like the two surfaces of a Moebius band. Finally, the role of the Lacanian real is radically ambiguous: true, it erupts in, the form of a traumatic return, derailing the balance of the Order, but it serves at the same time as a support of this very balance. The real functions here not as something that resists symbolization, as a meaningless leftover that can not be integrated into the symbolic universe, but on the contrary, as its last support.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the utilization level of forecasting methods in contract foodservice management companies. Questionnaires were distributed and collected from 30 foodservice management companies contracted with universities and 49 university foodservices in Seoul and Kyungki area. Statistical data analysis was performed using SPSS/WIN 10.0 based on the production records of Yonsei University foodservices and the weather reports from a meteorological observatory. The results of this study were as follows: 1) The objectives of the fore-casting systems were identified as saving costs through eliminating the leftover, meeting the customer demands, and improving efficiency in food preparation.2) All of the university foodservices were already performing the forecasting methods but in foodservice management companies as a whole,89.7 percents were applying the method and only 55.2 percents had the separate forecasting department. 3) A large number of foodservice staffs in the head office (65.5％) answered that they often utilized intuitive estimates based on the past experiences and records for forecasting while 65.3% managing staffs in the university foodservices answered the same.4) Both in the head office and university foodservices, actual number of meals served were recorded. In the head office, mostly estimated numbers and actual numbers of meals were recorded while estimated, prepared, and actual numbers of meals served were recorded for most of the cases in university foodservices. 5) The primary factors considered for forecasting were the actual production records for the last month, the customer preference for the selected menu items, and the specific day of the week.
