Frankenstein's Owl
My first Submission to Threadless.com and my first Print
My first Submission to Threadless.com and my first Print
The idea came initially from my love of all da Vinci's anatomical drawings with all his little notes and maths. I was trying to imagine what a page or manuscript would contain if there were a secret book of hidden inventions that we hadnt ever seen. This in turn reminded me of Frankenstein and his creation.
The initial drawing was done on an A2 Sketch book in an assortment of pencils. I then scanned him in and cleaned him up in photoshop.
Then came the presentation. I took my own photos of textures to use in the background and hand wrote all the measurements and notes using my wacom tablet. This is often my favourite part, telling a story and bringing the work to life.
For Threadless I offered a selection of t-shirt colours
And here it is, the design was chosen for print and is available to buy on Threadless.com now on to the next project any ideas?
Thank You!

Citation: Averill, K.M., Ditommaso, A., Mohler, C.L., Morris, S.H., Milbrath, L.R. 2006. Vegetative expansion and seedling fate of swallow-worts (vincetoxicum spp.), introduced invasive vines in the northeastern united states [abstract]. Ecological Society of America Abstracts. 91:16. Interpretive Summary:
Technical Abstract: The exotic invasive vines pale and black swallow-wort [Vincetoxicum rossicum (Kleopow) Barbar. and Vincetoxicum nigrum (L.) Moench, respectively (Asclepiadaceae)] are becoming increasingly problematic in many northeastern states and in the Canadian Provinces of Ontario and Quebec. These herbaceous perennials invade a range of habitats and have the capacity to smother and out compete native vegetation. The effective management of the swallow-worts using the classical biological control approach may provide economically and environmentally feasible long-term suppression. The eventual success of a biological control program is dependent on the availability of essential biological and ecological data about which life stage(s) of the swallow-worts are important for population growth and are most susceptible or sensitive to control efforts. The objectives of this study are to determine (1) the rate of vegetative expansion of isolated swallow-wort plants and (2) seedling density and fate at six infested sites in New York State. Assessments of V. rossicum were made in two habitats that are typically invaded by this species, old fields and forest under stories, but only in old field habitats for V. nigrum. Vegetative expansion data were collected from 30 V. rossicum target plants in 2005 and at the start of the 2006 growing season. From 2005 to 2006, the number of tillers per plant increased by 45% plus or minus 5.4 in old field plants and by 19% plus or minus 3.0 in forest understory plants. Seedling density data were collected for both swallow-wort species in May 2006. The distribution of seedlings was variable across species, location, and habitat. Differences in land-use history, light availability, and soil organic matter levels between the sites explain some of the variability observed, particularly in forest under stories. Established seedlings (at least one year old) were more prevalent (79% plus or minus 3.0) than newly germinated seedlings (20% plus or minus 3.0). Habitat did not affect this relationship. More newly germinated V. rossicum seedlings were recorded (23% plus or minus 3.5) than V. nigrum seedlings (9% plus or minus 2.8). Of the newly germinated V. rossicum seedlings, 38% plus or minus 6.0 were polyembryonic (having 2 or 3 seedlings per seed) whereas 24% plus or minus 9.8 of newly germinated V. nigrum seedlings were polyembryonic. Of established V. rossicum seedlings, 10% plus or minus 2.9 had 2-3 stems per root crown while 4% plus or minus 2.1 of established V. nigrum seedlings had 2-3 stems per root crown. The population dynamics of these two species will continue to be monitored during the 2006 and 2007 growing seasons.

Access to Research Infrastructures
How to gain access
Through 'Enhancing Access to Research Infrastructures' the Commission sponsors new opportunities for research teams to obtain access to the major research infrastructures most appropriate for their work, irrespective of where in the Member States or Associated States they or the infrastructure are located. All researchers within an eligible team are entitled to receive reimbursement of the travel and subsistence expenses related to their participation in the project. However, in exceptional cases and with due justification, the Commission may give prior agreement to any travel outside the territory of Member or Associated States.
Eligibility requirements
To take part under this scheme research teams must have the required profile.
Only research teams conducting their research in the Member States or Associated States are eligible to benefit from access under the activity.
The term "research team" means a group of one or more researchers not necessarily all coming from the same country.
Researchers from third countries may participate in a project where the team.
leader and the majority of the team are from eligible countries.
Research teams conducting their research in the country of the contractor are not eligible. This exclusion will not apply to a contractor that is an international organisation or the Joint Research Centre. However, if a research team, composed of a team leader and of a majority of users from eligible countries, includes exceptionally some researchers from the country of the infrastructure, it will not be excluded.
Users will be expected to publish their results within a reasonable time in the open literature.
As a general rule, users conducting proprietary research will not be supported under this scheme. An exception will, however, be made in the case of SMEs who wish to use a particular infrastructure for the first time.
How to participate
Research teams identify the research infrastructure, which will significantly enhance their work from the list of infrastructures selected by the Commission and contact the infrastructure operator. Teams then submit to the infrastructure operator (the contractor) proposals describing the project they wish to carry out and the names and places of work of the researchers expected to take part.

Tuesday, Sept. 2, 2014 | 11:37 a.m.
Editor's note: This is the first in our "Senate Showdown" series where we'll share news, links and insights on Nevada Sen. Harry Reid and the 2014 battle for the U.S. Senate.
Nine weeks from today, Nevada Sen. Harry Reid will know if he will still run the U.S. Senate.
The campaign to control the Senate is the defining storyline of American politics in the Nov. 4 election, and Reid is is one of the main characters.
Forecasters predict Republicans could have a slight majority in the Senate. An unpopular Democratic president and the first national election since the 2013 implementation of Obamacare helped create a tough environment for Senate Democrats up for re-election in red states.
If Republicans gain a net six seats in November, they would control both chambers of Congress for President Obama's last two years in office. And Reid would lose control of the Senate for the first time since ascending to majority leader in 2007.
But nine weeks is a long time in politics.
Neither Reid nor Republican Nevada Sen. Dean Heller are up for re-election this year. But the Las Vegas Sun politics team will share links and insights on the Senate showdown leading up to the election. Readers can email questions to [email protected] or ask them on Twitter with the hash tag #AskAmber.
To halt deportations now or after November? President Obama has said he will act in some fashion to change the status of some undocumented immigrants, most likely stalling deportations for millions of immigrants. But a September or October surprise could hurt vulnerable Senate Democrats, Politico writes.
The hating on Harry Reid summit: For months now, Reid has vilified Republican megadonors Charles and David Koch. The Koch brothers turned the tables this weekend at a Dallas gathering for their largest political group, Americans for Prosperity. Politico reported there was no shortage of jabs at Reid, including a life-size cutout of the Nevada senator.
The possible future majority leader? Whether Republicans take the Senate in November could depend solely on if their leader, Mitch McConnell, can win his re-election in Kentucky. The New York Times Magazine takes a look at his dead-heat campaign and what McConnell would do as majority leader.
Who's buying the Senate: It's nearly impossible to keep up with what outside groups are spending in which races. The Center for Public Integrity has put together an interactive cheat sheet on who's behind the estimated $153 million spent so far in TV ads in key Senate races.
What the pundits say: If you want to follow the Senate showdown day-by-day, there are a number of forecasting models that try to predict the political winds. Statistic-driven models at The New York Times, The Washington Post and Real Clear Politics use slightly different methodology but all come to the same conclusion: Republicans have a better-than-50/50 chance to take the Senate. A FiveThirtyEight forecast in early August came to the same conclusion.

|Quitman's coach put on leave
|From Staff Reports
Nov. 15, 2004 - The Quitman Bulldogs played Friday night's playoff game without head coach Rick Porter, who was put on paid administrative leave just hours before the team left for the game.
The action was taken against Porter for inappropriate sexual advances toward a high school female volleyball player, according to a broadcast report by KLTV in Tyler.
The Quitman ISD school board is scheduled to meet in executive session tonight to discuss the matter, according to a spokesman for the school district.
Porter will not be on the main campus until the matter is resolved.
Assistant football coach Billy Mack Steed coached the team on Friday, when Quitman beat Hughes Springs, 48-24, and he will continue to lead the team until the school board makes a decision.
The Bulldogs, who will face Elysian Fields in the area round of the playoffs on Saturday, have also been embroiled in a season-long controversy over an alleged ineligible player. The District 17-2A executive committee cleared the player last week, but he missed two games due to the allegations.

Botanical: Anemone pulsatilla (also known as Pulsatilla vulgaris)
Family: Ranunculaceae (buttercup)
Other common names: European Pasque Flower, Passe Flower, Easter Flower, Meadow Anemone,
Wind Flower
Pulsatilla has been used by herbalists as a nervine to calm and soothe the nerves and relieve pain, neuralgia, tension headaches and insomnia. It is also thought to ease ovarian and menstrual pain, premenstrual syndrome (PMS) and testicular pain; and the herb's antibacterial qualities are believed to be effective in alleviating acne and other skin problems.

These statements have not been evaluated by the FDA and are not intended to diagnose, cure, treat or prevent disease. Individual results may vary, and before using any supplements, it is always advisable to consult with your own health care provider.
Pulsatilla is an anemone and one of over two thousand species of mostly herbs and shrubs in the large Ranunculaceae family. It is a handsome perennial that may be found in short clumps in the meadows and prairies of North America and Eurasia. The anthers of this deciduous plant are bright yellow and the purple bell consists of sepals. The leaves are downy; the segments many-parted, and the solitary flowers are deep-purple or violet, blooming early in the spring, and, according to some writers, again in the latter part of summer or early autumnl. It is a simple, erect plant with rounded stems, reaching about five inches in height, and in its tallgrass prairie habitat, it is one of the first plants to bloom in the spring, often before the late winter snows have thawed. Because of the plant's early blooming period (about Eastertide), Pulsatilla was given the name, Pasque Flower, by the French. A rich, legendary history has gained the anemone many names and attributes. It is said to have sprung from the blood of Adonis, and the Romans considered it valuable in preventing fever. The common name, Windflower, is accounted for in several ways, one of which is Pliny's statement that anemone blossoms are opened by the wind. The plant may be found growing wild (although Pulsatilla vulgaris does not transplant well) in open meadows, pasture grounds and fields, thriving in dry, sandy, neutral-to-alkaline soil in full sun. Pulsatilla grows in the temperate zones of the northern hemisphere of Europe (where their medicinal uses have been recorded since antiquity by Galen and Dioscorides); with other species growing in North America (where it was considered the chief medicinal plant of the Minnesota tribes of Native Americans and The "great medicine" of the Northwestern tribes); as well as in Asia (where it has been in use as an antibacterial, astringent and anti-inflammatory since the days of the Han Dynasty of 206 B.C-A.D. 23). The European (Old World) and American species greatly resemble each other in appearance and some applications. A. pulsatilla is included in the British Pharmacopœia, and the North American species (the floral emblem of South Dakota ) was formerly listed in the United States Pharmacopœia from 1882 to 1905, as a diuretic, expectorant and uterine stimulant. It is a bitter, cooling herb that is cut when flowering, then carefully dried for use in herbal medicines. Some of the constituents in Pulsatilla include an oily principle, which decomposes into protoanemonin (the lactone of gamma-hydroxy-vinylacrylic acid) and anemonin (a highly active substance), glucose, tannin, resins, pectin, calcium compounds, magnesium compounds and sulphates. Because anemone species contain an acrid compound anemonin, it can be highly irritating to mucous membranes and must always be used under the direction of a qualified health care provider.
Beneficial Uses:
Pulsatilla is considered an alterative, or agent that helps to gradually and favorably alter the course of an ailment or condition, most often by altering the process of nutrition and excretion and restoring normal bodily function. It may achieve improvement by cleansing and stimulating the efficient removal of waste products from the system.
As a nervine, Pulsatilla has been used to soothe and calm the nerves, as well as reduce stress and anxiety with particular attention to nerve exhaustion in women. It is said to relieve pain, earache, neuralgia and tension headaches. The anemonin and protanemonin compounds in the herb are thought to produce a sedating effect, and it is said to be effective in alleviating hyperactivity and insomnia.
Pulsatilla is considered to be an antispasmodic and, as such, is believed to relieve spasms, relax smooth muscle in the gut, alleviate uterine cramps and allay spasmodic cough of asthma, whooping cough and bronchitis.
Herbalists have used Pulsatilla to relieve inflammation and pain in the reproductive organs (including painful conditions of the testes and ovarian pain), painful menstrual periods and PMS (premenstrual syndrome). It has also been used as an emmenagogue, which helps to stimulate menstruation and regulate its flow.
Pulsatilla is called a diaphoretic that produces perspiration and elimination through the skin, and this action may help to reduce fevers. A 1988 analysis determined that anemonin is a compound that produces a fever-lowering effect.
As an antibacterial herb, Pulsatilla is thought to be effective in relieving bacterial skin infections, including boils and acne. A 1990 study demonstrated that protoanemonin in Pulsatilla has in vitro activity against fungi and may, thus, be helpful in cases of vaginal yeast infections.
Pulsatilla has been used to relieve catarrhal diarrhea, and anemone is considered to be one of the most effective herbs for relieving amœbic dysentery.
Because anemones contain the acrid compound, anemonin, Pulsatilla Herbal Supplement can be poisonous and must always be used under the direction of a qualified health care provider. The herb is harmful if eaten fresh (and only the dried plant is used medicinally), and repeated handling may cause skin irritation. The anemonin compound in Pulsatilla is a powerful irritant, and overdoses cause violent gastroenteritis, vomiting, looseness of the bowels and convulsions. This herb is recommended for use by qualified practitioners only. Pulsatilla is not given to patients with colds.
