The purpose of this study is to examine the differential influences of cash dividends and stock dividends on the firm valuation. Cash dividends are firm's cash outflows but stock dividends are not. If individual investors recognize that dividend revenues are taxed. they will value paid-in capital and retained earnings differently. The results from testing the hypotheses indicate that individual investors value cash dividends after dividend taxes but do not value stock dividends after dividend taxes. This suggests that non-taxing of capital gains provides tax shelters to individual investors and investors prefer retained earnings to be converted as paid-in capital rather than 0 be paid as cash dividends.

Recently, natural disasters such as earthquake, tsunami, typhoon and tornado are increasing, and cause huge economical loses and victim. Thus, when the disaster occurs, it is important to prepare emergency evacuation shelters for fast and easy construction compared to general building system. And, deployable structures will provide a great help for such aim. Deployable structures have the great advantage of being faster and easier to erect and dismantle compared to conventional building forms. In this study, we confirm the possibility of deployment for shelter structures using scissor structure system. First, Basic model was performed to recognize the appllicability of the deployable systems of the dome-shaped structure. Second, Advanced model that more improved inner space and deployment mechanism was confirmed.

This study was conducted to investigate the prevalence of canine heartworm infections, canine brucellosis and hematologic values from 153 free roaming dogs in the area of Gwangju city from March to November 2006. Nineteen (12.4%) of 153 samples tested with modified Knott's technique showed positive reaction for microfilariae. Polymerase chain reaction using specific primers for D immitis amplified the expected product from all samples of 19 microfilaremic canine blood samples as determined by the modified Knott's test for microfilariae. The seasonal infection rates of microfilariae were higher in the spring season (10/19, 52.6%) than in the other seasons. The major hematological findings in microfilaremic dogs were mild leukocytosis and mild monocytosis. A total of 100 dogs randomly selected from 153 free roaming dogs were negative for canine brucellosis by serological test using immunochromatographic antibody test kit.

Two test standards to be applied for evaluating shielding effectiveness of HEMP protection facilities, MIL-STD-188-125-1 and IEEE std. 299, provide different test results in spite of the same facility. In particular, at the frequency range of 10 kHz~20 MHz, it is confirmed that the test results by the IEEE Std. 299 are about 20~30 dB lower than the evaluated results by MIL-STD-188-125-1. These results are due to the different measurement conditions specified in the two test standards. Therefore, IEEE Std. 299 can be applied for the shortening of test distance, but the required SE performance based on MIL-STD-188-125-1 must be modified.

About 350 shelters nationwide go through about 100,000 organic animals every year. If you are not adopted by the adoption candidate, you will be euthanized in just one out of every fourteen days after entering the shelter. Therefore, in order to prevent the occurrence of organic animals, it is necessary to register the companion animal easily and to register the inscription to manage the history. In this paper, we propose a local technician who can describe feature points in inscription images to develop recognition technology through inscription, which can distinguish companion animals such as human fingerprints.

In the late Joseon period, as Korea suffered from two battles such as Byeongjahoran and Imjinweran, the people wanted to find comfortable shelters, which caused Bigi to prevail. That is, as an alternative to find a shelter which is physically prosperous and mentally comfortable and to get out of turbulent days, the people desired the utopian world of Sipseungji. The Sipseungji of 'Namsako' was deeply rooted in the society, which had a great impact on it. However, it is very surprising to find that the Sipseungji is metaphored in the process to make the shapes of Korean $J{\check{o}}gori$ which are a represented product of our culture. In other words, the ideal world we desired is a clothe itself which wraps human bodies, not any mysterious place that can not be found. They wanted to deliver the assumption that the ideal world is in humans themselves through clothes. Though a shaman sign of Sip (meaning ten), the Sipseungjiseol of Namsako became rooted in the living of the common people, which caused social confusion, but the Sipseungji suggests that as humans are the very lucky place, the utopian world is in themselves. Therefore, it should not be overlooked that the shapes of Korean $J{\check{o}}gori$ have instructional values that can not be found in those of other foreign cultures.

Homelessness became a major social problem in Korea. And the homeless presents many kinds of problems in social functioning. In studies on the homeless, Physical and mental health, alcohol and subtance abuse, the vulnerability of the social support have been frequently described as major characteristics of the homeless. Of the homeless' psychosocial characteristics, this article focused on the lack of the social support, which plays a important role on the exit from homelessness. The lack of social support has been mentioned as cause for homelessness. But a few researchers stressed the perspective that the homelessness causes the lack of social support. This article analyzed empirically the lack of social support among the homeless in terms of "social disaffiliation". This article hypothesized: (a) as longer homeless duration, the extent of the perceived social support would be decreased, (b) as longer homeless duration, the magnitude of the social network would be decreased, (c) as longer homeless duration, the ratio of the homeless in social network would be increased. Survey data collected from 355 homeless persons (sheltered homeless) at 82 shelters in Seoul. The result of analysis supports 'social disaffiliation hypotheses'. The result of this study suggests that the social work intervention to strengthen social support and social network be critically important in homeless shelter.

A radiation imaging system used in a surgery room is mainly using C-arm which is purposed to fluoroscope. C-arm is often use to watch an operation's accuracy and progress, but not only being bombed to this first beam but also affected to this scattered beam, so now we are look for the way to reduce bombed amount of doctor, nurses and radiological technologists. We measured the exposure dose in $0^{\circ}$ spot according to the distance to find out frequency distribution of scattered ray in an operation room and found the spot which has the same exposure dose from $30^{\circ}$ distance of all directions and wrote isodose curve. We analyzed the data and found out the sudden reduction of scattered ray according to the long direction also found out that scattered ray was not related to the directions. Operators must recognize the reduction of exposure dose. Because reducing scattered ray from all directions in an operation room is really difficult. So every operators must use shelters to reduce the exposure dose and notice the safety.
