This study was carry out to investigate the effect of supplemental lighting on the growth and flowering of Rosa hybrida 'Nobles' in winter. Supplemental lighting was treated during 5 hours at night with sodium lamp and fluorescent lamp, and cut flowers harvested 2 times for the experimental period. After supplemental lighting, air temperature and slab temperature in glasshouse was higher in sodium lamp treatment than control. Realtive humidity was low in sodium lamp treatment. Total nitrogen phosphate, potassium, calcium, and magnesium contents of stem in sodium lamp treatment were higher compare to the other treatment. In sodium lamp treatment, the potassium and magnesium content of leaf in control were lower than the others. Chlorophyll content was not different by source of lighting. Stem length and diameter was longer in sodium lamp treatment. In two times, the yield was highest in sodium lamp treatment. Therefore, supplemental lighting with sodium lamp in winter season was recommended for improving the yield and quality in cut rose 'Nobles'.

Seven male Himalayan tahrs were strongly assumed to have accidently fed on foreign bodies in 2007. At the time, zoo caretakers witnessed missing fence padding, such as carpet, plastic awning, and ropes. The incident occurred the morning after the items had been set up to protect indigenous, wild long-tailed gorals from self injury caused by head butting the steel fence. Adult male Himalayan tahrs were obviously suspected of mostly eating the paddings mainly composed of carpet, thin and long plastic awning, and ropes. Even though they had not shown digestive problems, surgery was determined necessary in order to remove any indigestible foreign bodies. Left flank rumenotomy was conducted on seven male Himalayan tahrs from April to May, 2011. After anesthesia with xylazine, rumenotomy was performed on a concrete floor, with legs and head secured by ropes. No access to water and hay prior to operation for two days was needed to make the surgical procedure done quickly. Two sheets of small hand towels protecting against inflow of ruminal contents were beneficial during surgery. Antibiotics were administered intramuscularly for seven days. No abscesses at the surgical site were found after surgery. Like domestic ruminants, wild ruminants also ingest metalic or non-metalic, indigestible foreign bodies by accident. Therefore, simplified rumenotomy must be developed to apply to those wild animals to lengthen their longevity and to advance the quality of life in captivity. This case report is the first showing how to perform rumenotomy of Himalayan tahr, a wild ruminant, in Korea.

In a warehouse, because there exist frequent changes of stock status and the quality of some contents are influenced by the environment such as temperature, fast and accurate management of the warehouse's environment is very important for Warehouse Management Systems (WMS). However, due to the absence of a unified standard for the communication protocol between RFID nodes, the connection between RFID nodes can be broken in case of movement of a RFID reader to a region with a different protocol. Moreover, centralized MAC schemes for RFID communications in previous studies have severe problems. For an example, if a cluster header disappears from the cluster due to the cluster header's movement or bad channel conditions, the RFID member nodes of the cluster waste lots of time and energy to re-elect a new cluster header. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a WiMedia Distributed MAC (D-MAC) scheme for RFID communications and its cooperative relay transmission scheme for WMS applications Simulation results show performance improvement at the RFID node by using the proposed cooperative relay transmission scheme.

Social bookmarking is one of the most interesting trends in the current web environment. In a social bookmarking system, users annotate a web page with tags, which describe the contents of the page. Numerous studies have been done using this information, mostly on enhancing the quality of web search. In this paper, we use this information to measure the semantic similarity between two web pages. Since web pages consist of various types of multimedia data, it is quite difficult to compare the semantics of two web pages by comparing the actual data contained in the pages. With the help of social bookmarks, this comparison can be performed very effectively. In this paper, we propose a new similarity measure between web pages, called Web Page Similarity Based on Entire Tags (WSET), based on social bookmarks. The experimental results show that the proposed measure yields more satisfactory results than the previous ones.

IPTV, a convergence service of broadcasting and communication, draws an attention as an educational media that provides various advantages including top quality of screen, easy access, and protection from harmful contents. In addition, a successful IPTV learning requires learners' active participations. Yet, the research on educational applications of IPTV is at the early stage focusing on teachers and developers' perspectives. Therefore, the present study conducted a survey on learners' current IPTV usage and intentions to use. Reflecting the results of the survey, we developed learner-centered IPTV learning scenarios based on self-regulated learning strategies and suggested its implementations.

The purpose of the study was to compare the outplacement programs for the retiring employees in Korea corporations. We expect that this study will make contributions for increasing the quality of outplacement programs. We conducted the expert interviews and literature review and set a comparing criteria in terms of goal, target audience, program process and contents, operation process. We selected 6 different programs, which were KT, Samsung Electrounic, A consultancy firm specialized in outplacement, Korea labor foundation, and Korea international trade association. In results, we suggested the necessity of programs revision, the decrease of service recipient per a consultant, recommendation of alternative career path, and update of the programs for the service recipients who lacks of motivation. We also suggested that human resource department and chief executive officers made attentions for the outplacement programs as well as the government input more budget on the programs and consulting for the retirng employees.

The contents of crude lipids of Yackwa was especially high of 24.4%. After 30 days of storage, the acid value, TAB and the carbonyl value were 2.0, 1.3, and 1.4 times higher than the initial storage, respectively. Soaking in syrup prevented moisture loss and the progression from lipid oxidation to quality deterioration, and addition of ginger juice showed the slightly lower in lipid rancidity. When compared with the unsoaked group, the L value of the soaked group were lower during the 30-day storage. As for the textural changes during storage, elasticity and chewiness decreased slightly. It was hypothesized that the textural changes were affected not by the ginger juice or the storage period, but by soaking in syrup.

Ninety six growing pigs ($Duroc{\times}Landrace{\times}Jia$) were used to investigate the effects of betaine on growth, nutrient utilization, carcass composition and meat quality at different levels of betaine in the diet. The pigs were randomly assigned by weight to four groups, each of which was replicated three times with eight pigs per replicate. Four groups were fed with diets supplemented with 0, 1,000, 1,500 and 2,000 mg/kg betaine. The pigs were grown from 20 kg live weight to approximately 64 kg. The 1,000 mg/kg and 1,500 mg/kg betaine treated groups increased average daily gain by 13.20% (p<0.01) and 9.28% (p<0.05) and average daily feed intake by 7.30% (p<0.05) and 7.33% (p<0.01) respectively and decreased feed conversion ratio by 7.93% (p<0.01) and 6.55% (p<0.05) respectively compared to the control group. However, these differences were not found in the other betaine treated groups. The 1,000 mg/kg betaine treated group significantly elevated carcass lean proportion by 7.49% (p<0.05) and longissimus muscle area by 19.12% p<0.05) and contents of ether extract and myoglobin in longissimus dorsi. by 34.21% (p<0.01) and 29.56% (p<0.01) respectively, reduced carcass fat proportion and fat depth by 27.21% (p<0.05) and 14.86% (p<0.05) respectively compared to the control group. It is concluded that betaine supplementation in the diets may improve growth performance and carcass characteristics in growing pigs.
