The enormous debt owed to those now-deceased registrants who unselfishly voluntarily participated in the US Transuranium and Uranium Registries program through postmortem donation of their tissues and to those stillliving registrants who have volunteered to be future postmortem tissue donors is hereby acknowledged with gratitude. The scientific findings derived from postmortem analysis of these tissues have been instrumental in advancing our understanding of the actinide elements in humans and have led to refinement, validation, and confidence in safety standards for those who work with these elements as well as for the general public. To these generous and anonymous persons who made this ultimate contribution, this paper is dedicated with great thanks and admiration.展开更多

By comparing the similarities of these two poems, this paper analyses the two poets’ attitudes towards the development of modern society, finding that both poets not only show admiration for modern society but also doubt about the fast development. It aims to reveal the influence of fast development of modern society on people’s mentality.展开更多

ChosSn Korea called itself ＂Little China＂ due to the following two policies： mohwa （admiring China） and sadae （serving the greater）. Choson Korea traced its origin back to the dongyi （Eastern Barbarians） and claimed itself the only nation that had transformed itself from ＂Yi＂ （barbarian） to ＂Hwa＂ （Chinese） in the Chinese world system. References to the sage Kija （Jizi） in moral, historical, and political writings indicated the beginning of this transformation and thus the worship of Kija was consistently implemented. The ritual and cultural systems in Choson Korea imitated those of China. The policy of admiring China, Confucian thought, and the worship of Confucius comprised a significant part of the ＂Little China＂ ideology. After the Ming-Qing transition, Choson Korea did not acknowledge the legitimacy of the Qing dynasty and considered itself the only and true China.展开更多
