The new course distances of a ship are considered to be the indices to indicate directly her abilities of course altercation. Generally, they have long been calculated by using the maneuvering indices obtained from her Z test. However, at sea actually the maneuvering indices can not sometimes be obtained according to ship's condition or circumstances and the new course distances can not be calculated. To find out other method to calculate the new course distances, in this paper the author analyzed them from a viewpoint of ship motion, and worked out a numerical formula to calculate them easily, using the data of ship's heading test. In order to check whether the presented method is applicable to actual ships or not, the experiment by them were also performed. The results obtained are summarized as follow: 1. The mean difference of the distance between two new course distances by the heading test and the maneuvering indices of the experimental ship was about 0.98% values of the ones by the maneuvering indices, when her heading were 10。, 20。 and 30。, using the rudder angle of 15。. These new course distances were therefore found to be almost same in values of the distance. 2. The mean difference of the distance between two new course distances by the heading test and the observation of experimental ship was about 1.16% values of the ones by the observation, when her headings were 10。, 20。 and 30。, using the rudder angle of 15。. These new course distances were therefore found to be almost same in values of the distance. 3. It is confirmed that the new course distances can be calculated easily by using the method of ship's simple heading test, without the observation or using the maneuvering indices. 4. It is considered to be helpful for the safety of shiphanding to draw curves of new course distances by ship's heading test and utilize them at sea.

The authors report a case of epidural and extraforaminal calcification caused by repetitive triamcinolone acetonide injections. A 66-year-old woman was admitted presenting with lower extremity weakness and radiating pain in her left leg. Ten months before admission, the patient was diagnosed as having an L4-5 spinal stenosis and underwent anterior lumbar interbody fusion followed by posterior fixation. Her symptoms had been sustained and she did not respond to transforaminal steroid injections. Repetitive injections (10 times) had been performed on the L4-5 level for six months. She had been taking bisphosphonate as an antiresorptive agent for ten months after surgery. Calcification in the ventral epidural and extraforaminal space was detected. The gritty particles were removed during decompressive surgery and these were proven to be a dystrophic calcification. The patient recovered from weakness and radiating leg pain. Repetitive triamcinolone acetonide injections after discectomy may be the cause of dystrophic calcification not only in the degenerated residual disc, but also in the posterior longitudinal ligament. Possible mechanisms may include the toxicity of preservatives and the insolubility of triamcinolone acetonide. We should consider that repetitive triamcinolone injections in the postdisectomy state may cause intraspinal ossification and calcification.

Nana was an important patron deity in the Kušan Empire and the most important deity worshipped by Emperor Kaniška (c. 127-150 CE). She was the head of the royal dynastic pantheon at this time. The cult of Nana may already have existed in Central Asia prior to the arrival of Indo-Iranians in the region, since she appears on a BMAC seal dating to the early second millennium BCE. Similarly, her cult in Bactria may pre-date her appearance in the Kušan pantheon by over two millennia. The spread of Nana's cult over such vast distances vividly illustrates the cultural connections (presumably stemming mostly from trade) that existed from prehistoric times linking the Mediterranean world to that of Central Asia and beyond, with the Iranian plateau at its center. The prevalence of Sogdian coins bearing Nana's name suggests that she was also the principal deity of Sogdiana. In Bactria, the goddess Ardoxšo (Avestan Aši vaŋ^vhī) was also worshipped by Kušāns and appeared on their coins. Nana, who was associated with war, fertility, wisdom, and water, was also equated with the Iranian goddesses Anāhitā, Aši, and Ārmaiti. The cult of Nana-Ārmaiti was widespread throughout eastern Iran.

We present the results of analysis on the X-ray observations of the binary X-ray pulsar Her X-I. made with ASCA/SIS on August 13-14. 1993. An eclipse transition from ingress to egress was fully covered by the observations. The main findings are as follows; (1) a model of power-law plus black-body is required to interpret the entire eclipse spectrum. and the black-body component appears at < 0.7 keV. (2) the power-law continuum which has photon index ${\alpha}\;=\;{0.84^{\;+0.14}}_{\;-0.19}$ is very similar to that of detected by Ginga/LAC (${\alpha}\;=\;0.80\;{\pm}\;0.04$), (3) the calculated eclipse flux of $2^{-10}\;keV.{\;}~{\;}1.8{\pm}10^{-11}{\;}ergs{\;}cm^{-2}s^{-1}$, is consistent with the Ginga observation carried out in the high intensity state ~2.0{\pm}10^{-11}{\;}ergs{\;}cm^{-2}s^{-1}$, (4) there is no significant absorption feature. and an upper limit of the aborption column $NH{\;}\leq{\;}3{\pm}10^{20}\;cm^{-2}$ is determined at the 90% confidence limit. Based on these results, we suggest that extended matter surrounding the binary system should be existed persistently with stable conditions, and scattering of the source continuum by the matter is responsible for the eclipse emission.ission.

This research aims to examine the influence of Korean high school girls' perceived family adaptability and cohesion on maturity with regards to career attitude. In order to verify statistically the research questions, Cluster Sampling with Stratification was conducted among high school girls in Seoul; a total of 670 questionnaire sheets were administered to 10th graders；and Multiple Regression was used for data analysis. Subsequently, the following results were obtained： a high school girl's perceived family adaptability and cohesion significantly influenced her maturity with regards to her career attitude. Particularly, the sub-variables such as democratism, participation, supportiveness, and unity of family adaptability and cohesion had significant relevance to career attitude maturity. In general, family adaptability and cohesion had an R square of 47.3% with regards to a female 10th grader's career attitude maturity.

Using questionnaire data from a sample of 144 mothers who have 6-36 months children in Seoul, this study examined the relationship among wife's parenting stress, social support, and wife's marital satisfaction. The main results of this study were summarized as follows; 1. Whereas the level of the employed wife's parenting participation was very low, the level of another person's support was very high. On the other hand, her husband participated less in the parenting than the unemployed wife's husband did. 2. Parenting stress was negatively related to marital satisfaction while the satisfaction of husband's support was positively related to marital satisfaction. 3. The satisfaction of husband's support mediated the relationship between parenting stress and wife's marital satisfaction. That is, wife's satisfaction of husband's support predicted higher marital satisfaction. 4.For both employed and unemployed wife, the most important indicator of marital satisfaction was not parenting stress but her husband's emotional support.
