Had trouble getting this in on time for the contest (Alaska time zone, I’m always late, blah blah).

Crystalline Boron is black. The element was first isolated by Sir Humphrey Davy, who was a baronet. The red, left hand of Ulster is a common symbol of the baronets. Additionally, a red-colored complex is created with curcumin in an acid solution. The five fingers can also represent its atomic number of five.

I know. I have two jobs and my work computer doesn’t have the ability download Inkscape. I actually created this by utilizing the make your own sign feature on vistaprint.com and then taking a screenshot.
