In this study, the discharge loads of non-point pollution sources were analyzed using a Hydrologic Simulation Program-Fortran (HSPF) model for 46 sub-watersheds in order to guide the management plan for water and streams passing through the city. The results using HSPF showed good applicability in comparison to point measurements, which were based on BOD, TP, and TN. The mean value of the BOD loads was $4.08kg/km^2$ per day, and the highest level of BOD was $17.75kg/km^2$ per day at Namri. Three potential areas of high priority for the installment of constructed wetlands were selected in order to reduce non-point pollution sources based on BOD loads and on environmental and economic conditions. The results for these scenarios indicated a maximum rate of reduction in BOD of 39.12% within the proposed constructed wetlands.

Seaweed has been consumed especially in the Asia since centuries ago as a vegetable (Matsukawa, 1997; Burtin, 2000; Raghavendran 2003). Seaweed has many valuable nutrients i.e. as a mineral resources, vitamin, and non-caloric fiber, also has potential antioxidant resources. Such of nutrition consists in the Seaweed is Chlorophyll, Carotene, Fucoxantine, Luteen and Zeaxantine, Polysaccharide and Diet Fiber, Mineral, Protein and Amino Acid, Fat and Fatty Acid, Vitamin, Polifenol, also Methanol. The benefits of some nutrition content on seaweed are as an antioxidant, slimmer agent, anti-diabetes, healthy for heart, eyes health, Iodium source, and some kind of vitamins functions. As a conclusion, developing research about seaweed we believe it would be a part of medicine material and food processing, also cosmetic industrial.

This study analyzed consumers' willingness to pay for price increases to avoid the purchase of GM foods by the expansion of GMO labeling. The subjects were asked about their knowledge of GM, concerns of potential hazards, and sources of obtained GM information. The logit model was employed and marginal effects were calculated to interpret the results. The results showed that consumers who perceived the safety of GM technology were less likely to pay for price increases, while consumers who had concerns about GM foods were more likely to pay. In addition, the study demonstrated that consumers residing in urban areas and with low levels of education and income were also less likely to pay for price increases.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to explore essences and meaning in experiences of women who have had spontaneous abortion. Methods: A phenomenological methodology was used for the study. A total of five women with the spontaneous abortion participated in the study. In-depth interviews were done for data collection, and the data were analyzed using Colaizzi's method. Results: Five theme clusters, along with 32 sub-themes and 13 themes. The five theme clusters were: 'Waiting and expecting pregnancy', 'Desire to overcome the spontaneous abortion', 'My baby makes me cry and laugh', 'My precious baby', and 'Want to hear with sympathy and talk with you', Conclusion: The women who have had the spontaneous abortion experiences can prevent potential physical and psychological complications after miscarriage by getting education and intervention in nursing. Moreover, they may experience that negative factors of the spontaneous abortion can be turned into positive things through emotional support of family and medical teams.

Fecal malodor is an acute environmental issue to be solved for the intensive animal agriculture in Japan. Among these substances volatile sulfur such as hydrogen sulfide (HS), methanethiol, and dimethyl sulfide, and dimethyl disulfide are the ones most strictly controlled in the Japanese national regulations. In this experiment, we have screened a range of standard strains of chemoheterotrophic bacteria and of the presently isolated soil bacteria for their capacity to decompose HS. We have demonstrated that Comamonas testosteroni $JCM5832^T$ and our isolate Bacillus sp. had a potential to reduce malodor when applied to the pig feces.

Nanoimprint lithography (NIL) is the next generation photolithography process in which the photoresist is dispensed onto the substrate in its liquid form and then imprinted and cured into a desired pattern instead of using traditional optical system. There have been considerable attentions on NIL due to its potential abilities that enable cost-effective and high-throughput nanofabrication to the display device and semiconductor industry. In this paper, a pressure vessel type imprinting system was used to imprint patterns with two type pressure values (25 bar, 30 bar) and two type pressure keeping times (5 min, 10 min). The height of transferred pattern and the thickness of residual layer were measured and effects of pressurization conditions - pressure and pressure keeping time - on the pattern transfer in thermal NIL were investigated.

Inspire of increasing importance of entrepreneurs for successful new venture creation, structured educational programs for entrepreneur development are very limited in Korea. Based on the survey of existing academic programs and interviews with entrepreneurs, this study presents a new education system for entrepreneurial management and new venture creation. Specifically, seven venture educational programs are suggested. As degree programs, ⅰ) new venture interdisciplinary program and ⅱ) venture MBA program are presented. Also, ⅲ) advanced venture management program, ⅳ) venture capitalist training program, and ⅴ) potential entrepreneur training program are suggested as non-degree programs. In addition, special and supporting programs such as ⅵ) technological entrepreneurship seminar and vii) new venture forum are explained. Finally, some examples of typical entrepreneurial management courses are presented and policy implications are suggested.

This study was conducted for an efficient utilization of waste fly ash obtained from the power plant. Fly ash was used for synthesizing zeolite. Na-P1 zeolite could be easily synthesized from waste fly ash and showed the potential to remove heavy metal ions. The synthetic zeolite showed good adsorption property for heavy metal much better than raw fly ash and natural zeolites. Na-P1 exhibited the high adsorption efficiency with a maximum value of 260 Pb mg/g and strong affinity for $Pb^{2+}$ ion. The metal ion selectivity of Na-P1 was determined in a decreasing order : $Pb^{2+}>Cd^{2+}>Cu^{2+}>Zn^{2+}>Fe^{3+}$.

Yam($Dioscorea$ $japonica$) has been used in oriental medicine to modulate physiology, and it is considered as a potential functional food. So far, however, limited efforts has been performed to use yam for food processing and development. Thus, in this study, rice cakes called 'Backsulgi' containing 3%, 6% and 9% yam powder were prepared and the quality characteristics were evaluated. The results of this study showed that adding yam powder reduced the moisture content of Backsulgi, which led to a decrease in the strength of textural characteristics such as hardness, adhesiveness, cohesiveness, gumminess, chewiness, and springiness. In contrast, the quality characteristics of the sample containing 3% yam powder were not significantly different from those of the control in moisture content, texture, and overall acceptability. Consequently, adding 3% yam powder could improve the biofunctionality and quality characteristics of Backsulgi in the case of adjusting moisture content.

The Debreu-Gale-Nikaido theorem [2] is a potential tool to prove the existence of a market equilibrium price. Walras' law is of a quantitative nature (i.e. it measures the value of the total excess demand), and it is interesting to note that the existence result holds true under some qualitative assumptions. In fact, the Debreu-Gale-Nikaido theorem states that the continuity of the excess demand function and Walras' law has the following implication : For some price and corresponding value of the excess demand function, it is not possible to respond with a new price system such that the value at the new price of every element in the value of the demand function associated with the old price system is strictly positive.
