We herein describe the case of a focal spontaneous spinal epidural abscess who was initially diagnosed to have a free fragment of a lumbar disc. A 71-year-old woman presented with history of low back and right leg pain. Magnetic resonance imaging suggested a peripherally enhancing free fragment extending down from S1 nerve root axilla. Preoperative laboratory investigation showed elevation of c-reactive protein (CRP), erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) levels. She was taken for surgery and a fluctuating mass at the axilla of S1 nerve was found. When the mass was probed with a dissector, a dark yellow, thick pus drained out. Pus cultures were negative. Patients who present with extreme low back plus leg pain and increased leucocyte count, ESR and CRP levels should raise the suspicion of an infection of a vertebral body or spinal epidural space.

Roughing of tool steel in its hardened state represents a real challenge in the die and meld industry and process improvement depends on research of tool material, coating technique, and lubrication. However, roughing of hardened steels generates extreme heat and without coolant flooding, tool material cannot withstand the high temperature without choosing the right tools with proper coating. This research conducted milling tests using coated ball end mills to study effects of cutting conditions and geometric parameters of ball end mills on the machinability of hardened tool steel. KP4 steel and STD 11 heat treated steels were used in the dry cutting as the workpiece and TiAIN coated ball end mills with side relief angle of 12$^{\circ}$ was utilized in the cutting tests. Cutting forces, tool wear, and surface roughness were measured in the cutting tests. Results from the experiments showed that 85 m/min of cutting speed and 0.32 mm/rev of feed rate were optimum conditions for better surface finish during rough cutting and 0.26mm/rev with the same cutting speed are optimum conditions in the finish cutting.

In this paper new results are obtained for multivariate processes which help us to identify weak negative orthant dependent(WNOD) structures among hitting times of the processes. Furthermore, an approach to derive dependence properties among the processes is proposed and a partial solution to the question tat what kinds of the dependence properties, when they are imposed on processes, are reflected as analogous properties of corresponding hitting times is give. Examples are given to illustrate these concepts.

This paper mainly deals with the tilted Carath$\acute{e}$odory class by angle ${\lambda}$ ${\in}$ ($-{\pi}/2$, ${\pi}/2$), denoted by $P{\lambda}$) an element of which maps the unit disc into the tilted right half-plane {<${\omega}$ : Re $e^{i{\lambda}}{\omega}$ > 0}. Firstly we will characterize $P{\lambda}$ from different aspects, for example by subordination and convolution. Then various estimates of functionals over $P{\lambda}$ are deduced by considering these over the extreme points of $P{\lambda}$ or the knowledge of functional analysis. Finally some subsets of analytic functions related to $P{\lambda}$ including close-to-convex functions with argument ${\lambda}$, ${\lambda}$-spirallike functions and analytic functions whose derivative is in $P{\lambda}$ are also considered as applications.

In this study, the present state of fiscal crisis for local governments after IMF is analyzed, firstly. its implications Characteristics of structural reform of finance after IMF bailout in Korea are examined, secondly. Since Korea was shocked by the currency crisis at the end of 1997, its local governments have also faced fiscal difficulties. The Depression of national and local economies led to decreases in tax revenues of local governments. And these shrunken revenues led to their expenditure cuts. Many investment plans were curtailed, and ordinary expenditures were also reduced sharply. The negative influences of the currency crisis on local government's finances can be examined in terms of fiscal revenue, fiscal spending, and debt burden. As a result many local governments are now experiencing fiscal stress, and some of them are even faced with fiscal crisis although the possibility of extreme measures, such as moratoriums or bankruptcies, is very slim. This is due in part to the weight of debt in local governments' budgets having remained small since the debt of local governments has been controlled by the central government. Another reason is that, central government, which functions as a lender of last resort for the local governments, will pay the debt for them. Also, without a legal system which stipulates the adjudication of bankruptcy for municipalities in Korea, local Korean governments have no legal right to declare bankruptcy. Although not a single municipality has fallen into insolvency, yet, this trend will continue to deepen as the recession continues and may lead to a situation where manu local governments fall into virtual bankruptcy in the near future, and its effects on society, as a whole, will be serious. Therefore, measures to prevent and overcome such an extreme situation are necessary, but both short-and long-term policies should be to cope with the current fiscal crisis and to prevent the deepening of the current situation.

이탈리아의 전진이탈리아, 북부동맹, 오성운동당의 유럽회의주의는 이탈리아의 국내정치의 내부적 대립과 경쟁의 결과로 이해할 수 있다. 이들 세 정당들이 취한 유럽회의주의적 입장은 이탈리아 정치지형변화의 특수성에 기인하여 제한적으로 표출되었다. 이탈리아의 정부형성은 대단히 포괄적인 거대 연맹(coalision)의 형태로 이루어져 왔고, 각기 다른시대에 정부의 책임을 공유하였다. 이는 정당들의 유럽회의적인 실질적인 표현에 제한성으로 작용하였음은 분명해 보인다. 또한 전후 이탈리아의 정치 체계속에서 등장한 정당들은 극심한 분열과 대립의 구도속에서 반대정치세력에 대한 견제에 집중한 정치전략을 필요로 했다. 이들 정당은 당의 창설 초기부터 유럽회의적 사안을 주요한 정치적 이슈로 부각하지 않았다. 오히려, 초기집권동안 전진이탈리아의 정치기조는 친유럽적인 성향을 띤 것이었다. 정당은 긴축재정과 이민급증의 경제, 사회문제에 직면하여 유럽회의적으로 전환한 공공담론을 인식하면서, 선거지지를 확보하기 위한 포괄적 정치전략으로 반유럽통합 담론을 부각시켰다. 같은 맥락으로 북부동맹의 초반 정치기조는 연방주의 형성을 위한 유럽통합에 동조하는 입장이었지만, 정당의 주변화와 정치지지 하락에 직면하여 정당 회생을 위한 대안으로 유럽회의적 정치 입장으로의 전향을 시도하였다. 오성운동당 역시, 반유럽적 사안은 국내의 정치적 대립속에서 정당의 합리성을 강화하기 위한 전략으로 채택된 것이었다. 한편, 자국의 경제이익과 정체성 보존 및 사회질서를 위해 타인종을 배격하고 반유럽을 주장하는 우파 포퓰리즘 정당과 극우정당이 대중의 공감을 획득하고 이탈리아 의회내의 입지가 강화되는 현상은 이탈리아의 정당체계에서 유럽회의주의의 점증 변수로 작용될 여지로 이해된다. 이에 따라 이탈리아 유럽회의주의 전당의 정치전략적 변화는 향후 유럽통합의 방향성에 따라 매우 유동적으로 전개될 가능성이 엿보이며, 이에 대한 다양한 연구적 질문과 분석이 이루어져야 할 것으로 사료된다.

In 2018, severe diebacks have occurred on yuzu trees cultivated in Goheung, Jeonnam Province. On-farm surveys at 18 randomly selected orchards revealed the dieback incidence ranged from 7.5% to 100% with an average of 43.6%, and 56.6% of the affected yuzu trees were eventually killed. In order to find the reason for this sudden epidemic, we investigated the weather conditions that are exclusively distinct from previous years, hypothesizing that certain weather extremes might have caused the dieback epidemic on yuzu trees. Since different temperatures can cause freeze damage to plants depending on their dormancy stages, we investigated both periods when yuzu becomes hardy under deep dormancy (January-February) and when yuzu loses its cold hardiness (March-April). First, we found that daily minimum air temperatures below $-10^{\circ}C$ were recorded for 7 days in Goheung for January and February in 2018, while no occasions in 2017. In particular, there were two extreme temperature drops ($-12.6^{\circ}C$ and $-11.5^{\circ}C$) beyond the yuzu cold hardiness limit in 2018. In addition, another occasion of two sudden temperature drops to nearly $0^{\circ}C$ were occurred right after abnormally-warm-temperature-rises to $13^{\circ}C$ of daily minimum air temperatures in mid-March and early April. In conclusion, we estimated that the possible damages by several extreme freeze events during the winter of 2018 could be a major cause of severe diebacks and subsequently killed the severely affected yuzu trees.

This study was designed to find the characteristics and patterns in subjectivity of an attitude on the induced abortion before marriage in women for a university student. Q-methodology was used as a research design and the research procedures were as follows. Q-sampling has been derived from the literature review and interview. Its credibility and validity were also tested by nursing and methodology professors. Total of 34 statements were selected. P-sampling has been drawn and 49 samples were selected. Based on 9 point scale, the slected respondents rated their operant definition on the induced abortion before marriage in women. The results of above procedures were analyzed by PCQ program. The attitude about the induced abortion before marriage in women were analyzed based on the typal array, extreme comments, and the demographic information of study subjects. The results revealed that there were three types of attitude about the induced abortion before marriage in women. The three types were named as follows ; 1) The first type, agree of conservative perspectives, was consisted of 15 subjects. They emphasized the sanctity of human life and the right of life that will never allow the killing fetus and prevention of induced abortion. 2) The second type, agree of liberal perspectives, was consisted of 10 subjects. They insisted the right to choice for women to control their body, so women have appropriate reason, they could choice induced abortion. 3) The third type, agree of compromise perspectives, was consisted of 7 subjects. They emphasized prevention of induced abortion but allowed under social permission. As a result, this study discovered three types of the attitude about the induced abortion before marriage in women. By identifying the nature of each of these types, this study can be useful to develop efficient strategies for preventing induced abortion.

This stydy investigates H-shaped houses in 1930s and examines the characters and meanigs of Kim, Jong-Ryang's H-shaped houses as a new trial to urban Hanok of those days. He, who was concerned about the housing problem of Seoul, made an attempt to make various types of dwellings. Among them, this study focuses on Japanese-Korean Style H-shaped houses in Samcheong-dong. As the alternative housing type against other urban Hanok of Seoul in 1930s, the H-shaped houses of Kim, Jong Ryang had characters as follows : 1) H-shaped houses has two special characters. First, the whole space of a single house can be divided into a left region and a right region. Second, it can be divided to a front region and a rear region. In his H-shaped houses, the left/right division was expressed as folding of space-layers in parallel with urban streets. The front/rear division was used as classification of main-living space and sub-living space. 2) KJR's H-shaped Japanese-Korean Style houses were proved to be designed as urban housing against the extreme housing shortage of Seoul in 1930s. 3) His houses however were not accepted broadly as a urban house type because the construction cost of those was higher than an average and the element of Japanese style house was not adapted to Korea. Kim, Jong-Ryang's trial is valuable because it was the rare case of realization of many discourses as defects of existing house type. With more rigorous investigations on KJR's experiment in modern house type, we could understand the housing condition of Seoul in 1930s and modern urban houses more than before.
