Dystocia, a challenging condition in obstetrics, can arise from various causes, including fetal monsters with structural abnormalities. This case report presents a unique case of dystocia due to a fetal monster known as Perosomus Elumbis in a beetal breed goat from Pakistan. The 4-years-old pregnant doe presented with prolonged straining and failure to deliver the fetus after 8 hours of labor. Upon examination, the cervix was dilated, and only the forelimbs of the fetus were visible in the birth canal. The subsequent delivery involved the application of manual traction by using a dystocia kit, and the removal of edematous fluid from the legs. The monster fetus exhibited absence of hair growth, along with the absence of thoracic vertebrae. Two other fetuses were present, with one found dead and the other alive. Posttreatment involved fluid therapy, antibiotics, and supportive care for the doe. This case report sheds light on the occurrence of Perosomus Elumbis fetal monsters and their impact on dystocia in goat breeding. Understanding the underlying causes and implementing appropriate management strategies are crucial for successful outcomes in similar cases.

韓国国内で2006年7月に公開された、ポン・ジュノ監督の映画グエム ル－漢江の怪物は、当時、韓国歴代最大観客動員数を記録し、同年9月 には映画配給会社角川ヘラルド(現在の角川映画)によって日本でも封切ら れた。しかし日本での人気は当初の予想とは異なる低調な成績に終わ り、韓流映画に対する全般的な期待自体低下させる契機となった。 『グエムル』の日本興業失敗の原因は既に様々な角度から分析されてい る。しかし筆者は、映画の中に描写された韓国社会の秩序意識に対し て、日本人が感じる違和感もその原因の一つとして作用したと考える。 筆者の考えを確かめるため、本論文では、日本と韓国の怪獣映画作品の 中に描写される社会秩序を考察し、これを比較分析する。そしてさらに 韓国人と日本人の考え方の違いに関して、まず李御寧と小倉紀藏の論理 を検討し、そこから出発して、筆者なりのアプローチで、社会制度に対 する信頼感ならびに社会秩序に対する考え方の違いの原因について明ら かにしようと試みる。

게임 개발에서 사실성은 몰입감을 높이기 위해서 중요한 요소로 고려된다. 이를 위하여 본 논문은 RPG에서 몬스터들의 이동을 기존의 에너지 모델을 적용하여 ‘정글 마스터’ 게임을 개발 하였다. 이 게임의 주요 시나리오는 정글에서 동물들이 살아남기 위하여 서로 공격하는 것이다. 기존의 에너지 모델이 추격 몬스터와 도망 몬스터가 1:1인 환경인 반면에 본 논문에서는 게임 을 보다 재미있게 하기 위하여 그것을 n:1 로 확장하였다. 그 결과 에너지 모델이 실제 게임에 서도 효과적으로 적용될 수 있음과 보다 자연스럽게 이동하는 몬스터들을 구현할 수 있음을 보 였다.

Super Typhoon Haiyan which is known as super typhoon Yolanda in the Philippines, the 24th typhoon to hit the country in 2013, is the world’s ‘most devastating typhoon to make a landfall’ in the entire human history. It struck the middle region of the Philippines killing thousands of people and causing billions of pesos worth of economic damages and losses. Tacloban, the capital of the province of Leyte which is approximately 360 miles southeast of Manila and is the largest city in the Eastern Visayas gaining the title of a highly urbanized city, was drastically damaged mainly due to storm surge flooding. The exceptional vulnerability of Tacloban was identified to be due to four reasons: the city’s large population, degree of urbanization, geographical location and last but not the least, its weak coastal areas. Worldwide Fund for Nature (WWF) Philippines assessed the disaster preparedness of 12 cities in the Philippines including Tacloban. Several aspects are to be considered including Tacloban’s environmental and socio-economic exposure as well as its adaptive capacity towards catastrophic threats like Haiyan. This paper aims to provide better visualization on how danger-prone areas like Tacloban should act in anticipation of occurrence of extreme weather events. Development of strategies will also be tackled in relation to the development of disaster response
