A major critique of the genre is that it simply represents an adolescent male power fantasy; and presents a world view that valorises masculinist individualism.

  • Assessment of Enamel Discoloration in Vitro Following Exposure to Cigarette Smoke and Emissions from Novel Vapor and Tobacco Heating Products
    _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Research Article _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Assessment of enamel discoloration in vitro following exposure to cigarette smoke and emissions from novel vapor and tobacco heating products ANNETTE DALRYMPLE, BSC (HON), PHD, THOMAS C. BADROCK, ANYA TERRY, BSC (HON), MARK BARBER, PETER J. HALL, BSC (HON), PHD, DAVID THORNE, BSC (HON), MSC, MARIANNA D. GACA, BSC (HON), MSC, PHD, STEVEN COBURN, BSC (HON), PHD & CHRISTOPHER PROCTOR, BSC (HON), PHD Abstract: Purpose: To evaluate in vitro enamel sample discoloration following exposure to a scientific reference cigarette (3R4F) or emissions from next generation tobacco and nicotine products (NGPs) such as electronic cigarettes (EC) and tobacco heating products (THP). Methods: Bovine enamel blocks (6.5 × 6.5 mm) were prepared and pre-incubated with human or artificial saliva, to form a pellicle layer before exposure to either particulate matter (PM) or whole aerosols. PM was prepared by capturing 3R4F cigarette smoke (CS), a commercial THP (THP1.0) or a novel vapor product (NVP)/next generation e-cigarette aerosols on Cambridge filter pads followed by elution with dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO). Ten enamel samples were exposed to each PM for 14 days. For aerosol exposure, 12 enamel samples were exposed (200 puffs per day, for 5 consecutive days) to 3R4F CS or THP1.0 and NVP aerosols. Control samples were incubated with DMSO (PM study) or phosphate buffered saline (PBS, aerosol study). Individual enamel sample color readings (L*, a*, b*) were measured at baseline and on each exposure day. Mean ΔL*, Δa*, Δb* and ΔE values were calculated for each product or control. A one-way ANOVA was used to assess the differences between the products and controls.

In ad- vance, we wish to thank you and the Lord for your generous help, which will contribute toward two projects in Spain and Belgium. 1. Evangelistic Center in Brussels, Belgium This interesting city with its international atmosphere has over a million inhabitants. The Belgian metropolis presents a real challenge to the proclamation of the three angels' messages. Our two churches in Brussels, the one French and the other Flemish-speaking, urgently need suitable meeting halls. This need must be met now, for wonderful opportunities have opened up for evangelistic work. 2. Girls' Dormitory at Sagunto College, Spain This school was founded in 1965 and since then it has grown rapidly.

Co-Chair: Ben Chappell Co-Chair: Elizabeth Esch Henry Bial Germaine Halegoua Joo Ok Kim Date Defended: 10 May, 2019 ii The dissertation committee for Ora Charles McWilliams certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: ‘Yes, But What Have You Done for Me Lately?’: Intersections of Intellectual Property, Work-for-Hire, and The Struggle of the Creative Precariat in the American Comic Book Industry Co-Chair: Ben Chappell Co-Chair: Elizabeth Esch Date Approved: 24 May 2019 iii Abstract The comic book industry has significant challenges with intellectual property rights. Comic books have rarely been treated as a serious art form or cultural phenomenon. It used to be that creating a comic book would be considered shameful or something done only as side work. Beginning in the 1990s, some comic creators were able to leverage enough cultural capital to influence more media. In the post-9/11 world, generic elements of superheroes began to resonate with audiences; superheroes fight against injustices and are able to confront the evils in today’s America. This has created a billion dollar, Oscar-award-winning industry of superhero movies, as well as allowed created comic book careers for artists and writers.
