This paper has attempted to examine the political and operational contexts within which North Korea's latest acts of nuclear blackmail, its test-firing of an SLBM on April 23rd 2016 and its fourth nuclear test on January 6^th 2016, should be understood. Analysis of the KN-11 SLBM and the Sinpo-class SSB is based on official South Korean, US and others sources, especially the ROK MND, as well as other resources from South Korea, US and others. Unfortunately, the results of this exploration are inconclusive: there is simply not enough evidence available at present to either confirm or refute the existence of a functional North Korean SLBM and SSB. Nevertheless, the North Korean determination to possess such assets should not be taken lightly. But even accepting North Korea's claims about its SLBMs at face value, which is undermined by news of apparently unsuccessful follow-up test-firings in November, and probably December 2015, there is little proof that North Korea has yet succeeded in miniaturizing its nuclear warhead, so the most extravagant fears are not yet justified. Taken together with North Korea's latest announcement of a supposed successful SLBM ejection-test, on March 23^th 2016, the KN-11 SLBM claims should probably be seen as primarily about proving North Korea's status as a nuclear power, both to exert external political pressure and to bolster internal political support for Kim Jong-un's rule. In conclusion, this paper recommends formulating a preemptive anti-access strategy for the ROKN, proposes acquiring an ASW CV and SSNs to implement submarine strategic deterrent patrols, and urges extending the existing limited AORs to facilitate the preemptive anti-access strategy. Other deterrence options may be suggested, but it is surely significant that the ROKN has recently publically referred to the deployment of an ASW CV and SSNs for the first time.

The purpose of this study is to announce the present condition, walking training, and adaptable training of a limb amputated patient. The study is a successful report of the limb amputated patient through the medical treatment of the physical therapy. A cause of the limb amputated patient, a truck driver, was that the patient was hit by a train when the driver alight from the truck. Then, the driver was surgical operated on left AK (Above Knee) amputation and left AE (Above Elbow) amputation by orthopedics at the Young Dong Severance Hospital on Dec.7, 1996. Two weeks after the operation (Dec., 22, 1996), the patient was trained at the Yonsei Medical Center Physical Therapy Hospital for the walking and temper adjust training. It was possible to do a flat surface walking and a slope surface walking without helping due to the patients optimistic personal character and motivation. However, the patient struggled to a dull surface walking and his weak endurance. the patient has several problems when the patient wears artificial legs and hands, fears on fall down, and mentally worries on noise when he walks. It is necessary to approach for this problems by many fields of the helpers, such as Rehabilitation medical doctor, physical therapist, occupational therpist, artificial limbs makers, psychologists, and etc. Therefore, in order for recovering from the amputated parts function after the surgical operation, more approved reports have to be for the amputated patients due to increasing traffic accidents, industrial disaster, cancer, diabetes, obstacles of the peripheral nervous system, and etc.

In this paper our main focus is to provide insight into the history of M&A's for this purpose we have analysed the different waves of M&A. We have analysed these waves in context of available literature and fact and figures. During the study we realised that almost all of the waves of M&A's ended because of financial crises, although impact and severity of that crises may differ. We analysed the impact of current crises on M&A in global context and in order to establish how companies have and in post crises era i.e. after crises of 2007 onwards how the companies have changed their corporate strategies to accommodate M&A's. We have also analysed which factors fuelled M&A's in past and were these factors present in post crises era M&A activities. By first quarter of 2011 the many firms saw new growth opportunities in M&A activities seemed to rebound as large companies used M&A's as part of their corporate strategy but this was cut short by events like US debt ceiling, down grade of USA's credit ratings along with fears about Eurozone's financial health and their impact on future prospects of M&A's would they continue to prosper or would they be weighed down by these events.

보복범죄로 인한 사회적 불안이 심화되고 있다. 최근인 2014년 12월 27일에도 충북 보은에서는 자신을 신고한 병원을 찾아가 11차례에 걸쳐 보복폭행 등을 자행한 피의자가 검거되는 사건이 있었다. 과거 병원측의 신고로 형사입건이 되어 수감생활을 했다는 이유였다. 이와 같은 사건은 우리 주변에서 자주 발생하는 편이다. 우리에게도 엄연히 관련 법 규정과 제도가 존재한다. 그럼에도 불구하고 유사한 현상이 반복되고 있다는 것은 이 부분의 형사사법시스템이 제 기능을 다하고 있는지 의문이 들게 한다. 미온적으로 대처하는 보복범죄는 사회안전망의 근간을 위협하고 많은 국민들에게 범죄로 인한 두려움을 주게 된다. 보복범죄가 발생하게 되면 대다수의 국민들은 경찰을 비롯한 형사사법활동에 대하여 의구심을 가지며 형사사법기관에 대하여도 불신을 갖게 되는 것이 일반적이다. 이는 국민들의 신고정신을 위축시키고 결국 범죄율의 증가와 갖가지 사회문제를 발생시킨다. 법적 제도적 통제장치가 엄연히 존재하고 있으면서도 보복범죄는 오히려 증가하는 추세이다. 본 연구는 국내 보복범죄 동향을 살펴보고 그에 다른 법적 제도적 대책을 논의하고자한다.

Between January 2010 and March 2011, there were three outbreaks of foot and mouth disease (FMD) in South Korea. Over 3.45 million animals (5,660 farms) were slaughtered, which was 33.3% of the existing pigs, 8.4% of dairy cows and 3.4% of cattle. FMD disaster costs were estimated at around three billion Korean won. Nine civil servants were killed, over 150 people were wounded and 4,788 landfills were confronted with a pollution problem. Vaccination and slaughter are the two basic alternatives for eradication of FMD. Altho ugh slaughter is more violent, risky and expensive than vaccination, the Korean government had chosen only slaughter eradication by the end of 2010. Even though over three million animals were killed, FMD spread out over most of the country. Finally, the government chose to begin vaccination. Following vaccination, outbreaks decreased dramatically. The purpose of this report is a cultural analysis of the related decision-making process, laws and systems. For the culture analysis, we utilize interviews, symposiums, laws, FMD manual, government reports and press releases. In conclusion, we found that the FMD massacre was influenced by cultural and organizational factors. The cultural factors were economism, cheapening of the value of life, biased perceptions and fears. The organizational factors were a closed process of decision-making, monopoly system, a small homogeneous group and group-think. Therefore, more studies will be needed for those factors of FMD disasters in national-scale cases.

이 글은 생명과학기술의 또 다른 그늘로서 유전자차별의 사회학적 함의를 조명하기 위한 것이다. 이를 위해 유전자차별과 관련된 주요개념과 세 가지 시각(예외주의, 표현주의, 인권적 담론)을 검토하고, 미국의 "유전자차별금지법(GINA)"과 우리나라 "생명윤리 및 안전에 관한 법"에 나타난 사회적 함의와 한계를 분석하였다. 또한 기존의 유전자차별에 대한 인식결과(차별인식, 차별경험, 차별의 두려움, 차별에 대한 대응)에 기반하여 향후 유전자차별의 연구 및 정책을 위한 몇 가지 함의를 제시하였다. 우선, 유전자차별에 대한 개념적 합의와 함께 인권주의 시각의 중요성이 요구된다. 둘째, 공적 영역뿐만 아니라 사적 영역에서의 차별에 대한 관심과 유전소인을 가진 인구집단의 시각을 반영한 연구가 필요하다. 셋째, 법제도적 장치뿐만 아니라 국민과 의료인들에게 유전자차별 의식을 고양하고, 유전소인을 가진 사람들을 위해 유전자차별의 두려움을 낮출 수 있는 심리사회적 대응방안이 개발되어야 한다.

Hyperventilation is defined as ventilation in excess of that required to maintain normal blood $PaO_2$ and $PaCO_2$. It is produced by several distinct causes: anxiety, respiratory alkalosis, increased blood catecholamine levels, and a decrease in the level of the ionized calcium in the blood. The dental fears about acute pain, needle, drill and dental surgery lead to the severe anxiety and increased blood catecholamine level. Therefore, the most dental patient should be cared gently as the stress reduction protocol. In spite of the gentle care, two cases of hyperventilation were occurred during local anesthesia for incision and drainage of acute odontogenic infectious lesions. We suggest that the dental patients with acute odontogenic infection must be attention for the manifestation of hyperventilation, especially in the medically compromised conditions.

Given the gloval impact of the AIDS pandemic. it is necessary to take every measure to prevent an epidemic this disease in Korea. Health care givers. especially nurses, have the primary responsibility of AIDS prevention and providing comfort care of those patient with HIV/AIDS. In spite of this responsibility, many nurses are afraid of AIDS patients and refuse to care the patient with HIV/AIDS because they have a little information of AIDS and a fear of HIV infection from AIDS patient at worksite. The purpose of this descriptive study was (1) to examine nursing students' knowledge and attitude to AIDS patient. (2) to identify demographic variables influencing knowledge and attitude to AIDS patient. and (3) to examine correlation between knowledge and attitude. The subject of this study was 162 nursing students. The findings of this study can be summarized as follows. 1) The mean overall knowledge score was estimated to be 61.33 of 101. especially the mean score of transmission route according to sexual behavior was estimated to be 3.03 of 7. 2) The mean attitude score was estimated to be 32.37 of 45. 3) The total knowledge score of AIDS was influenced by these two factors; the experience of AIDS education class and religion. In the end, the study concludes that it is necessary to develop comprehensive AIDS education programs to improve knowledge about the disease as well as to allay the fears and anxiety of the nurses.

환경세를 비롯한 경제적 유인수단이 직접규제 방식의 환경정책수단보다 비용 효율적이고 오염저감기술개발의 유인을 제공하는 장점이 있기 때문에 우리나라에서도 1990년대 들어서부터 환경세 도입 및 환경친화적 세제개편에 대한 논의가 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 그러나 환경세가 무역경쟁력에 미치는 부정적 영향에 대한 우려가 현실적으로 환경친화적 세제개편을 단행하기 어려운 장애요인으로 작용하고 있다. 따라서 환경세의 부정적인 파급효과를 최소화하기 위하여 환경세의 도입은 철저하고 신중한 사전 준비를 통하여 이루어져야 하는데, 본고에서는 이에 대한 기초연구로서 환경과 무역을 연계한 국제적 논의의 추세와 국내외 선행연구를 개관하고, 환경세가 무역에 미치는 영향에 대한 이론분석결과를 제시하였다. 환경세가 무역에 미치는 영향에 있어서는 다른 나라보다 높은 환경세를 부과하는 경우, 오염유발산업보다 친환경적인 산업이 무역에 있어서 가격경쟁력이 있다는 결과를 도출하였다. 이는 환경세를 도입하는 경우 친환경적인 산업에 경쟁력 인센티브를 제공하여 중장기적으로 오염저감기술을 개발하는 긍정적인 효과를 기대할 수 있으며, 정부의 입장에서는 환경친화적인 산업 등을 육성, 지원하는 것이 환경개선과 동시에 무역부문에서의 국제경쟁력을 제고시키는 정책방향임을 시사한다.
