Formation of the Sense of Order of Ancient Greece’s External Public Space From the Perspective of Culture

With China’s urban planning and construction entering the stock renewal stage, the focus of urban planning and construction has gradually shifted from the scale and speed of urban planning and construction to the improvement of urban spatial quality. The order of urban external public space is a representative field to show the quality of urban space. In history, the stable and clear outline in the external space of Western Europe gave people pleasant visual enjoyment with its strong sense of order. Ancient Greece, as one of the most important sources of civilization in Western Europe, profoundly influenced the history of urban development in Western Europe. Therefore, this study explained why ancient Greece had a strong pursuit of sense of order of external public space from the perspective of culture, hoping to provide a theoretical basis for the exploration of the ideal state of urban external space in China.

The Double Manipulations of Mass Media on Psychological World and Sense Instinct of People

Don DeLillo is one of the post-modernist novelists with most important position in America.His work White Noise is the most classic art of post-modernist literature in America,which hit great commercial successes and deserved universal atten tion in the field of criticism immediately after its publication.This paper is trying to analyze the functions of mass media in White Noise,discuss the double dominations of mass media on psychological world and sense instinct through analyze the effects of mass media on psychology,action and values of modern people,and then pay attention to the role of mass media in post-modernist so ciety.Then all of these may provide some implications to work and life of modern people who depend on mass media overly.

The Interactions Between“Business”Culture,“Professional”Culture and Training

Ultimately,the fundamental issues of educational sciences remain economic and societal.The interactions between“business”culture,“professional”culture and training are part of this.This contribution is a reflection resulting from a longitudinal empirical research entitled:“Professionalization of an establishment in the social and medico-social field:a French monograph after the law 2002-02 of January 02,2002”.Three concepts were used:“making sense”(Weick,1995);the“strategic paradigm”(Jonhson,1987);and“cultures of action”(Sorel&Wittorski,2005;Barbier,2010;Ardouin,2015).

Research on Cultural Consumption and Urban Integration of Floating Population

This paper examined the relationship between cultural consumption and the floating population’s integration into host cities based on data from China’s Seventh National Population Census and the 2018 China Migrants Dynamic Survey(CMDS).The findings indicate that improving the floating population’s consumption level and quality,especially the quality of development-oriented cultural consumption,can significantly improve the level of their integration.Moreover,development-oriented cultural consumption has a positive effect on the floating population’s integration and social participation,while entertainment-oriented cultural consumption facilitates their integration mainly by improving their sense of well-being.These findings could guide policymakers in developing targeted cultural consumption policies,implementing specific regional industry adjustments,and expanding domestic consumption demand.

Evaluation of Substrates for Mass Culture of <i>Phaeoacremonium parasiticum</i>, the Fungus Responsible for Artificial Oleoresin Deposition in Agarwood Plant

For establishing the favourable media for growth of Phaeoacremonium parasiticum, the fungus was inoculated in five different media (Potato Dextrose Broth (PDB), Host Extract (50%) + PDB (50%) (HE + PDB), and the solid media viz., Rice Bran (RB), Maize Meal (MM) and Wheat Bran (WB)) at pH of 6.5 and incubated at a temperature of 30&#8451;± 1&#8451;. The solid media were added with water at the rate of 70 ml/100g of solid substrate. After 30 days of inoculation, conidial population of P. parasiticum in liquid media was lower compared to conidial population in solid media. In solid media, MM media showed the highest conidial population (9.56 log&#183;cfu/g) followed by WB (9.50 log&#183;cfu/g) and RB (9.38 log&#183;cfu/g). Hence, Maize Meal media (MM: Water = 100 g:70 ml) at pH of 6.5, incubation temperature: 30&#8451;± 1&#8451;for 30 days would be the standard technique for mass production of P. parasiticum.

A Spatial Turn of Folklore in the Context of Urbanization: From Folk Culture to Mass Culture

Urbanization is the most prominent change nowadays. The most prominent thing brought by urbanization is change in traditional folklore. In contemporary China, urbanization is accompanied by modernization. Under the influence of consumer culture and the modern media, traditional rural folklore is gradually evolving into urban mass culture. Additionally, it is being spread by a big wave of informatization, characteristic of the digital revolution. Traditional rural customs are always important contents of folklore study, but nowadays and in the future, the research focus of Chinese folklore studies needs to be adjusted. At the same time, individual folklore study needs to be turned into holistic culture study under that specific context.

A Remote Sensing Characterization of the Effects of Anastrepha striata ＆ Anastrepha ludens on Guava Cultures in Mexico

Detection of the presence of Anastrepha striata and Anastrepha ludens in guava cultures is presently done in Mexico by actually catching the flies in strategically located traps. The objective of this study is to show that it is possible to locate areas with the presence or absence of flies by remote sensing means, thereby simplifying the traditional way of detection of these plagues. In the field, groups of traps were selected where flies had been captured, as well as areas in which there was no capture in the traps. The radiometric signatures of whole trees and leaves were obtained, showing measurable differences between those specimens affected by the plague and those unaffected. Next we selected a SPOT5 image of 2007 corresponding to the study area in Calvillo, State of Aguascalientes, in Mexico, one of the major areas of guava cultures in the country. A supervised classification of the image allowed for the location of guava cultures in it. The guava culture areas obtained from this classification were validated comparing them to available maps of the cultured areas. Spectral signatures for the classes were derived from the image data. The separability of pairs of classes was also evaluated in order to maximize it. The IR/R （infrared to red ratio） ratio of the image bands was evaluated in 80 × 80 pixels around the locations of five traps where flies had been captured, and around five locations where the traps had not captured flies. Only the pixels where guava cultures were present were included in the analysis, other types of vegetation and soil coverage were rejected. We found that the index distributions with flies captured and those without flies captured cluster in two well-separated groups. We note that plotting the whole distribution of pixels around a trap yields a diagnostic view of the area, and individual index values do not provide such a view, since values with the flies＇ presence and without these overlap to some extent. Further analyses of other trap locations confirmed this separation and also revealed a third group of intermediate values between the two above, that are interpreted as locations in which the guava cultures are affected by the plague at an early stage of development, where the flies are not captured by the traps since they do not yet hatch. We concluded that it is possible to use remote sensing techniques to identify the presence ofAnastrepha striata and Anastrepha ludens in cultures of Psidium guajava L., even probably at early stages of development of the plague.

Decadence and Mass Culture： The Novel as a Panorama. The Case of Bruges-La-Morte

Today＇s idea of the so-called fin-de-sibcle is still somewhat inexact and incomplete. This lack of precision originates from a deeply rooted methodological approach which consists of considering the respective developments of literature, art, and science in isolation, without paying attention to any interference or reciprocal contamination. This defective method also affects the overlaps and contacts between high culture and popular culture. Despite the progress made over recent years, there are few researchers who approach their objective with a real awareness of the complexity of a time period which saw the appearance of mass culture in the current sense and an unprecedented boom in scientific and technological development.1 To this end, the example of the great German philosopher Walter Benjamin and his studies on Paris during the 19th century----collected in the essays on the great French poet Charles Baudelaire and especially in the monumental and unfinished work The Arcades Project--is, without doubt, a model to follow. Taking the path suggested by Benjamin, this article sets out a revision of the novel Bruges-la-Morte （1892） by the Belgian writer Georges Rodenbach, considered one of the major exponents of thefin-de-sikcle decadence, which goes beyond the usual approach of a symbolist reading, by paying special attention to the frictions between literature and technology on one hand, and between literature and popular entertainment on the other.

The influence of the mass culture on the contemporary college students＇ daily life

The mass culture penetrates into the world of the daily life of the contemporary college students in all directions. As the most sensitive group of the cultural assimilation, the college students practice various forms of the mass culture in their daily life. The popular culture and the everyday life are inseparable. The mass culture influences and changes the concept of our everyday life and the practice of our daily life, and enriches the connotation of the popular culture. The popular culture greatly enriches and expands the daily life of the college students with the features of the image, the nationhood and the consumption, but it also brings the negative effects that cannot be ignored. The daily life of the college students can be divided into several relative meanings according to their contents and forms, including the communication plate, the emotional plate and the leisure plate. Every meaning plate is concerned about the generation of values in the daily life of the college students, and the mass culture gives fresh and complicated contents to these meanings. How to find the values of their life and how to present oneself is the difficult problems and missions faced by the contemporary college students.

On Cultures of Curriculum in Mass Higher Education-Taking SEIB in GDUFS as an Example

Theodor W.Adorno's Culture Industry Theory

As one of the central figures in the Frankfurt school.Theodor W.Adorno thinks the rise of culture industry is resulting from increased rationalization and standardization within the society.The culture industry is an entertainment industry system which copies and delivers the commercialized noncreative culture product on a large scale through modern science and technology.And it may deceive,enslave and rein the people through the entertainment products,and cause several negative impacts on the mass culture.

Isolated Cells of Porphyra yezoensis Cultured on Solid Medium

Vegetative cells of Porphyra yezoensis are isolated with sea snail enzyme and cultured on the solidified agar medium. The results of experiments show that the isolated cells can survive,divide and regenerate well on the medium solidified with agar. The first division on the solid medium starts after 7 days' culture, 4 days later than the liquid culture. The survival rate of isolated cells is 71.3% on the solid medium, lower than the 86.2% of that in seawater.Thalli, thalloids,conchocelis, spermatangia and multicellular masses are developed on the solid/medium in the first month, slowly but normally. Spermatangia sacs disappear within 4 weeks. Without adding nutrient liquid onto the surface of solid medium or injecting seawater under the agar layer in order to keep moisture, the thalli and cell groups release monospores to form new thalli instead of enlarging their areas after 5 weeks' culturing. Some monospores regenerate new thalli. Other monospores lose their pigments and minimize their volume and divide quickly to form light pink calli. After 16 weeks, numerous calli can be seen on the solid medium and after 24 weeks' culturing, almost only calli and conchocelis can be seen. If the calli are immersed in seawater, the monospores are released and may develop into young thallus.

Room temperature nonlinear mass sensing based on a hybrid spin-nanoresonator system

We present a room temperature nonlinear mass sensing based on a hybrid spin-nanoresonator system with the microwave pump–probe technique and the spin readout technique, which includes a single spin of nitrogen–vacancy (NV) center in diamond and a nanomechanical cantilever. The resonance frequency of the nanoresonator can be measured with the nolinear Kerr spectrum, and the parameters that influence the nolinear Kerr spectrum are also investigated. Further, according to the relationship between frequency shifts and variable mass attached on the nanoresonator, this system can also be used to detect the mass of DNA molecules with the nolinear Kerr spectrum. Benefiting from the single spin of the NV center in diamond has a long coherence time at 300 K, the hybrid system can realize room temperature mass sensor, and the mass response rate can reach 2600 zg/Hz.
