Analysis of Nutritional Quality of Black Fungus Cultivated with Corn Stalks by Hongwei Yao, Yang Liu, Zheng Feei Ma, Hongxia Zhang, Tingting Fu, Zunqiang Li, Yuanjing Li, Wei Hu, Shuchang Han, Fengchen Zhao, Hongjun Wu, Xueyi Zhang

“…The results reported that corn stalks could significantly increase the content of ash, protein, copper, and iron in black fungus, but reduce the content of zinc, magnesium, manganese, and colloidal substances; corn stalks had less effect on melanin and polyphenols; its effect on water, total sugar, reducing sugar, crude fiber, and total flavonoids was insignificant. …”

A Geography of Cultures: Or, Why New York’s Lower East Side Is an Important Case Study by Mario MAFFI

“…During the 19th century, but especially in the crucial turn-of-the-century decades, the quarter—an immigrant ghetto of appalling living and working conditions as well as a hotbed of radical politics—also functioned as a sort of cultural laboratory, a key factor in the development of such diverse but distinctive American arts such as the realist and naturalist novel, the budding movie making, the Ash Can School of painting, theatre, etc.—all of them finally converging, in the 1920s, in the larger Modernist movement. …”
