Bravery: Courageous behavior or character. As creative we are called to be brave. Learn some practical ways to be brave with your creative pursuits as Stephen shares examples from traditional design to automotive and creative projects that have made him and others brave.
What business does Stephen Tansley have talking at a Creative Mornings PHX? None! Which makes him perfect for the next topic on Bravery.
Stephen is passionate about everything that deals with great design and illustration. He’s not at peace unless he’s learning something new or creating something good. Stephen’s most recent role was as the Creative Director for the Rhino Agency. His creative projects continue at home as BluePencil Unlimited and now in his new role as Sr. Interactive Art Director for The Lavidge Company. Design & illustration, webcomics, branding & display programs, children’s books, environmental design and craft beer are to just name a few of the things he’s always working on in the background.
As the owner of a 1957 Type 1 Beetle he restored, he participates in the hobby and craft of the Vintage Car world. He will share why Bravery plays a huge part in the world of vintage auto restoration and kustom culture. Many vehicles will be on display and everyone is welcome to mingle with the autos to see why Bravery is at the core of this near lost art.

Surgical removal is not usually the first choice because of the complications that may develop. Although it is a cure, there are potential side effects.
Hypoparathyroidism may develop because of the close proximity of the parathyroid gland to the thyroid gland.
Horner’s syndrome occurs when there the sympathetic nerves in that area are damaged or traumatized. The muscles in the face are affected and the cat will take on a “droopy” appearance (Stortz, et al., 2004).
Laryngeal paralysis may occur if the laryngeal nerves are also damaged.
Performing these tests helps rule out any other causes of the behavioral changes.
CBC is usually within normal limits (WNL). About 50% of hyperthyroid cats have mild erythrocytosis. This is due to the thyroid hormone producing excessive erythropoietin (Stortz, et al., 2004).
Blood chemistries will show an increase in alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and alkaline phosphatase (ALP). The increase in these values could occur from malnutrition, congestive heart failure, or the thyroid hormone causing liver toxicity (Stortz, et al., 2004).

Altruistic Behavior-(Wolves)- appears most obviously in kin relationships but may also be evident amongst wider social groups, in which an animal sacrifices its own well-being for the benefit of another animal. Wolves hunt and bring meat to their pack.
When cornered or threatened coachwhips will sometimes raise their upper body and strike, sometimes lunging their whole body forward. While they are not venomous, this behavior can be very intimidating to potential predators (and photographers).
I'm pretty sure this is a female Brown Headed Cowbird, and as such is one of my least favorite bird species. Females do not build nests of their own, but instead look for other birds nests to lay their eggs in, relying on the host species to feed and raise their young. (Which most do.) They've been known to invade the nests of over 220 species of other birds. This individual was foraging on the ground as I walked by trying to track down a couple Blue Jays. She did not fly away as I walked closer, instead she fluffed up her feathers and kept opening her beak while not making a sound. One guess I have is that this might be a juvenile and was trying to solicit food? As my title suggests, I am pretty baffled by this behavior. If anyone has seen this before, I would welcome any thoughts you have. Have a great weekend everyone!

This is a photo of two horses kissing. I rode horses with my family when we went to Costa Rica. Kissing shows affection and love, which are both pro-social behaviors.
Hognoses are also known for their ability to play dead when threatened. They roll over on their back and often puke and poop, making them much less appatizing to potential predators.

Some cats may experience decreased thyroid levels after radioactive-iodine treatment. If this is occurs and the patient has the clinical signs of hypothyroidism (lethargy, obesity, and poor hair coat), then thyroid-hormone supplementation may be required.

Clients should be informed of both the expense, the length of the hospital stay, and the fact that they will not be able to visit their cat while hospitalized. This is because the cat is radioactive and the hospital cannot risk exposure to visitors.
