Design Eagle Tattoo

The bald eagle has been a figure of freedom in the United States since it was adopted in 1789. (Lucky for us, George Washington was President back then. (If Benjamin Franklin were more than a public official, we would have had the turkey as our symbol!) Not only is the eagle endangered, but also a new species of rebel picked up the eagle as its figurehead - the motorcyclist. Specifically, Harley-Davidson picked up the figure of the eagle - wings outstretched, with a banner wrapped around the bird stating, "Live to Ride, Ride to Live."

Once motorcyclists caught on to the love of the Harley, it was not very long before tattoos of the logo began to show up on the avid motorcycle community. Soon, the icon of freedom, liberty, and the pursuit of the open road had men and women both looking to exonerate their feelings with a tattoo bearing the eagle. I have seen some incredible eagle tattoos in the past, but nothing like one in particular back in 1998. I was in Chicago at the Motorcycle Show at McCormick Place. Within the show, there were tattoo booths not only displaying past tattoos in books, but also upon the artists themselves. One particular young woman caught my attention - mostly because she wore a tube top as she tattooed a client.

The tube top was not what caught my attention, but rather the skin that showed from the lack of clothes. Her back, arms, stomach, neck - all had tattoos. Upon her back and covering the entire upper half of it, was the most detailed, finely shaded eagle I had ever seen. Its wingspan covered her shoulders, and she had a background of blue sky and white clouds. In the talons of the eagle, a banner (of what I later found) of her daughter's name was slightly crumpled in its clutches.

She turned a bit so I could see her chest, pointing out the portrait of her daughter just above her heart. Explaining her tattoos, her life had taken a turn for the better after the birth of her daughter. As for the eagle, it was because she was originally from Russia, and moved to the United States at the age of eleven. Based off her childhood experiences, she learned that the US had freedoms for women that she could not have ever found in her hometown.

The eagle was her tribute to the United States, for giving her a chance at individuality that she had not been able to find before. Her own personal growth as a tattoo artist began shortly after she got her eagle - unbelievably her first tattoo! (Most people get a small tattoo as their first one.) The banner was added at the birth of her daughter - the first child in her family born as a United States citizen. As cool as that tattoo was, it somehow seems even more poignant when I found the story behind the artwork!

Hawaiian Flower Tattoos - Orchid, Plumeria and Hibiscus Tattoo

Hawaiian flower tattoos are exotic and beautiful and not as cliché as rose or lilies. They can be an expression of one's heritage if he or she is originally from the island. Or it can also be a representation of one's unforgettable moments spent in Hawaii; the island being considered as a perfect getaway and vacation spot because of its beaches, fresh air and natural scenery. While some have significant meaning attached to the design, a lot of enthusiasts also choose this theme just for its sheer beauty and artistic appeal.

The most popular Hawaiian flowers are hibiscus, plumeria and orchid. Each flower has its own symbolism and individual characteristics. Hibiscus stands for delicate beauty as the bloom of the flowers are open for just a short period everyday. Hibiscus, in fact, has been called "Flower-on-an-hour". Plumeria is a flower commonly used as tattoo designs along side hibiscus as if to complete the whole Hawaiian flower theme. In the island, it is the flower traditionally used as a lei, it will always say "Aloha". Orchid is also prominent in Hawaiian and used as lei too, just like plumeria. It can stand for a lot of things like love, beauty, wisdom, and thoughtfulness.

Hawaiian flower tattoos can be seen incorporated with other imagery that the island is known for like sea turtles, mountains, surfboard and tiki. They are best executed on the body in full color to make them more visually appealing. They are also usually seen in a tribal style - with thick black lines and little accent of color or detail. They would look good as sleeve tattoos, or on the foot, shoulder blade, back, rib cage and lower back.

The Story of Ed Hardy Apparel

What do Snoop Dogg and Sylvester Stallone have in common? Unfortunately it's not a hot new musical collaboration. It's a brand new line from a hot designer. He doesn't work for Dolce and Gabbana, Burberry or Chanel, it's Ed Hardy clothing, a brand new, original line from Christian Audigier.

Don Ed Hardy, legendary tattooist, is the namesake of this unique brand of clothing. His Japanese meets American style of work is idolised around the world, and he is known in many tattoo circles as "The Godfather of Modern Tattoo".

Christian Audigier saw a fantastic marketing opportunity in Hardy's tattoos. He approached Hardy in 2004 with a clothing line idea based on his artistic style. Hardy, knowing that Audigier had already designed for the likes of Urban Outfitters, Diesel and Von Dutch, knew that his work would be in good hands, and so granted the licence.

The line swiftly became a hit across the world, but no group embraced Ed Hardy clothing more than Hollywood's celebrity set. Both Snoop Dogg and Sylvester Stallone are regularly seen wearing the Ed Hardy brand. In fact, both Stallone and Snoop have visited Audigier's warehouse and his home.

Audigier's unique style of networking has undoubtedly a big part of why he is so successful in the business. He even has a "celebrity gallery" section on his official site that has literally dozens of pictures of him with the hottest celebs around. It ends up being very lucrative giving away free merchandise to celebrities, as the amount of exposure that they receive is so significant. It is also far cheaper than paying thousands of dollars to have the same celebs star in an ad campaign.

However, this line isn't only for Hollywood. With tops starting from between $57-$64 it's actually fairly affordable as far as designer ranges go. It is also good to know that when you buy Ed Hardy clothing you're buying an item that will stand the test of time, because when a line has been designed around a style of tattooing that has stayed in vogue for decades, it's hard to imagine it going out of style any time soon.




Ed Hardy Shirts are designed by Christian Audigier. Every Ed Hardy Shirt is based on an original tattoo design by artist Don Ed Hardy.

Finding Japanese Tattoo Designs - Where's the Great Artwork?

Finding quality Japanese tattoo designs on the net can be a very frustrating thing to do for most people. There is just so many generic, cookie-cutter art to overcome and bypass. Even though it seems tough, there are easy ways to get around so much of the bland stuff you have been seeing.

I want to start off by explaining why people keep running into the same websites that are bloated with generic artwork. It's not that people are incompetent, because it's the actually tools and resources people are using which is doing this. I am talking about the good old trustworthy search-engines. They are good at showing you an overwhelming number of galleries that probably have Japanese tattoo designs, but a huge portion of these places will not be worth your time and energy. Why is that, you ask? Because of the quality of artwork they present to you.

It's wasteful to spend much time at these websites, because most of the artwork and any Japanese tattoo designs they have are probably over seven years old. On top of that, they are loaded with so many unappetizing tattoos you have to sift through just to find the few that look decent. The excessive amount of generic, cookie-cutter artwork is a huge reason why people end up getting tattoos that they hate. Many people end up rushing their decision and settle on the "less than" art out there. There is no need to settle on tasteless Japanese tattoo designs, no matter how long it takes you to find exactly what you want. The good news is that you can easily work your way to tons of hidden websites out there that have the superb artwork you have been missing out on.

The Japanese tattoo designs you find through search engines are questionable at best, so a great alternative happens to be internet forums. You can find a plethora of original, quality artwork by using forums. People in forums are tired of the unattractive stuff they find on the not, too, and they are more than willing to share links to the great places they have found that search engines just don't show you. I know you want to see semi-original Japanese tattoo designs

Most people get misguided when trying to find tattoos, which probably happened to you when looking for Japanese tattoo designs. Forums are the one source where you can find real life opinions from real life people who have found the unique websites out there that have the superb artwork you need. It's a simple solution to an otherwise growing problem on the internet.




Here are the 3 largest, most original websites to find the perfect Japanese Tattoo Designs

Adam Woodham is the author of this article and runs the site Quality Tattoo Art, which features the 3 top websites with the absolute largest tattoo gallery you will ever see, including tons of Japanese tattoo designs. Finding the perfect tattoo has never been easier.

Educational Activities For the Summer Before Kindergarten

This September thousands of children will start Kindergarten. For many this will be their first exposure to formal education. Kindergarten is no longer just a place to play or an extension of preschool. Serious learning goes on in Kindergarten, granted it is hidden within a lot of fun. Naturally you want your child to be as prepared as possible before the big "First Day of School". Follows are some fun and educational activities for the summer before Kindergarten.

Math Activities - The great thing about five-year-olds is that they are always ready to learn new games and as long as they're having fun, they don't realize they're learning too. In Kindergarten, students learn about counting (forward and backward), counting by 2s, 5s, and 10s, putting things in order (first, second, third), money and telling time to the hour.

Teaching a child to count simply requires repetition. Try to fit counting into every activity. Count pages of books, pieces of candy, number of toys, etc. There are loads of books out there about counting as well as some good games for small children. Cherry-Oh! has always been one of my children's favorites. The Internet is also a wonderful source of free math activities including free printable play money to practice with.

Science Activities - Obviously five-year-olds aren't interested in learning boring old lab experiments nor are they appropriate for young children. Luckily science is everywhere in the world around us. Kindergartens will be learning basic facts about plants and animals, sorting objects based on physical characteristics, light shadow, magnets, weather and the five senses. A perfect activity to teach kids about plants is to let them grow their own small plant - sunflowers and marigolds are hardy and easy to grow. A trip to the zoo is a good interactive activity to learn about animals while the library and the Internet can provide information on animals not found locally. During clean-up or crafts activities, your child can practice sorting. Ask your child to put all the round toys away first or all the blue toys. Eventually work up to characteristics like soft/hard, and smooth/rough. Teaching your child about magnets can be easy too. If you have a refrigerator magnets (not fancy ones) or home office magnets, collect items around the house that are picked up and some items that are not picked up by a magnet. Place everything on the table in front of your child. Before your child uses the magnet on each group of objects, have your child guess what will happen. Borrow some books from the library about the four seasons and the weather that goes along with them. Every morning, ask your child to look outside and tell you what the weather is like. You can draw or trace and cut out picture symbols representing each season and ask your child to match the object with the right season. Actually you can probably find print-outs online for each season.

Music Activities - Music activities are the most fun of all. If your five-year-old is anything like other five-year-olds, they love to make noise! Most libraries now let people borrow music and videos as well as books. Borrow some music of famous composers. I'm sure you can also find online clips of classical, opera, folk, jazz, and other types of music. Spend the summer creating your own "orchestra." Create drums from empty containers, symbols from pan lids; you can make maracas, guitars, chimes and horns. You may need to pick up some basic materials but most of the items you most likely already own.Sharing these activities with your child won't only better prepare your five-year-old for Kindergarten; it will also make the summer unbelievably fun.

The Apparent Murder-Suicide of Chris Benoit Really Creates More Questions Than Answers

News of the apparent murder-suicide of well-known and well-liked WWE wrestler Chris Benoit left me with mixed emotions: sadness and dismay.

Unlike so many men past 60 who would not be caught dead admitting to watching pro wrestling on television in a polite, worldly, sophisticated public environment, I embraced the admission and stood my ground.

I believe Chris Benoit would have done the same. Benoit's boob tube presence was never a good interview, never as charismatic as we would have liked, never a loudmouth, never a blowhard, never obnoxious, never foul mouthed but always quiet, real, genuine and tough as nails.

There is no telling how many World Championships Benoit (pronounced Ben-WAH) would have been allowed to win if he was all of the things that other wrestlers like "The Nature Boy" Ric Flair, the "Heartbreak Kid" Shaun Michaels or "The Cerebral Assassin" Triple HHH (Hunter Hurst Helmsley) flaunted.

Do not misunderstand what I am sharing here. I respected Triple H, I loved Ric Flair and Shaun Michaels as competitors and I loved Benoit even more as a pure competitor.

Benoit, Flair and Michales have probably taken more punishment in the ring, won more matches and won more titles than any other competitors. Few competitors and few fans ever figure out that everyone can dish it out in pro wrestling, but the ones who can dish it out AND withstand the punishment are eventually the champions.

Chris Benoit was born in Montreal, Canada and grew up in the same wrestling community as Stu Hart and his sons, most notable of which were Bret Hart and Owen Hart. Benoit was the consummate mat wrestler with talent and skills only matched by Flair and Michaels and perhaps exceeded by Bret Hart.

Benoit was a former World Heavyweight Champion, Intercontinental Champion and several time Tag Team Champion. His ring names included "The Canadian Crippler" and "The Rabid Wolverine".

Benoit reminded me a lot of of Eddie Guerrero. Both Owen Hart and Guerrero died prematurely, Owen from a tragic wrestling promotion accident that should never have happened, and Guerrero from an apparent overdose of prescription drugs.

Like Owen Hart and Eddie Guerrero, Benoit was almost universally liked by his fellow superstars and sports entertainers in the WWE locker room.

I do not believe that Vince McMahon (Vinny Mac), the World Wrestling Entertainment owner and arguably the most gifted of sports entertainment promoters ever, could really tolerate a person so quiet and respected as Christ Benoit.

That is why it came as such a shock to me that Benoit could have allegedly strangled his 43-year-old wife Nancy, strangled his 7-year-old son Daniel and then committed suicide by hanging himself on the cable of a weight-training machine at his home. I cannot comprehend the unspeakable horror of his wife or son realizing their circumstance when Benoit apparently lost control of his life.

Their bodies were found in three separate rooms of their home off a gravel road about two miles from the Whitewater Country Club near Atlanta. Holy Bibles were left beside Benoit's wife and son.

Benoit had maintained an Atlanta address from the time he wrestled for the defunct World Championship Wrestling. The Fayette County Tax Assessors Office listed the value of the house, situated on more than 8.5 acres, at nearly $900,000. The same house and property in Connecticut, California or Seattle, Washington would probably be valued at $2+ million.

I know the pain of suicide as my sister Loretta committed suicide. She was a victim of MS (multiple sclerosis) and had apparently lost any hope of living a better life in the advanced stages of her disease. I came to know that people who commit suicide have lost all hope of a better life.

I certainly do not condone killing one's immediate family on the way to committing suicide; murder in this circumstance seems cowardly to me, and if there is one thing I never, ever, thought about Benoit was that he was a coward. I thought him to be just the opposite.

Since this tragic story has unfolded it has taken on a life on its own in the national media, in part because of the incredible events that have surfaced since the tragedy. These include:


  • The rumor that Benoit and his wife constantly fought about money, even though he apparently made $500,000+ as a professional wrestler for WWE.



  • The rumor that Benoit and his wife fought about the best way to raise their son Daniel, who was undersized and possibly a special needs child.



  • The fact that Benoit's wife filed for divorce in 2003, saying their three-year union was irrevocably broken and alleging "cruel treatment." She later dropped the complaint as well as a request for a restraining order.



  • The fact that Benoit's page on Wikipedia, a reference site that allows users to add and edit information, was updated about 14 hours BEFORE authorities say the bodies were found on Monday, June 25. The update said the reason Benoit missed a match on Saturday of the fateful weekend was "stemming from the death of his wife Nancy." The source was traced to a user in Stamford, Connecticut, but claimed no connection to WWE, which has its headquarters in Stamford.



  • The fact that anabolic steroids found in Benoit's home led officials to wonder whether the drugs played a role in the killings that started the weekend of June 22. Some experts believe steroids can cause paranoia, depression and violent outbursts known as "roid rage". Toxicology tests on Benoit's body have not been completed.



  • The fact that Benoit had seen his personal physician and friend, Dr. Phil Astin, and been given prescription medications on June 22.



  • The fact that Dr. Astin prescribed a 10-month supply of anabolic steroids to Chris Benoit every three to four weeks between May 2006 and May 2007, according to a Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) agent in a filed affidavit.



  • The fact that the DEA acknowledged that Benoit's name had surfaced in a drug probe investigation before the tragedy occurred. The probe was called "RX Weight Loss" and Benoit was identified as an excessive purchaser of injectable steroids.



  • The fact that Dr. Astin was charged exactly a week after the tragedy with improperly prescribing medications to two patients, but not Benoit. More charges may be coming.



  • For the record, since 1997 about 1,000 wrestlers 45 and younger have worked on pro wrestling circuits. Of the 1,000, at least 65 have died since 1997 according to a report in USA Today (3-12-04 edition), 25 from heart attacks or other coronary problems. Many had enlarged hearts. Another statistic from another source purports that 104 wrestlers have died prematurely in the last 10 years.



  • The list of steroid or prescription drug users include some big names: Hulk Hogan (real name Terry Bollea), former Minnesota governor Jesse "The Body" Ventura, "Rowdy" Roddy Piper (real name Roderick Toombs), "Stone Cold" Steve Austin, Bret "The Hit Man" Hart (Hart was also know as "The Excellence of Execution"), Paul Michael "Triple H" Levesque (also known previously as Hunter Hearst Helmsley), Mark "Johnny B. Badd" Mero (Sable's husband), "Superstar" Billy Graham, Jim "The Ultimate Warrior" Hellwig, Kevin "Big Sexy" Nash, Jeff Hardy, Mike "Road Warrior Hawk" Hegstrand, Mike "Crash Holly" Lockwood, Scott "Raven" Levy, Eddie Guerrero, "The British Bulldog" Davey Boy Smith, and the lesser known "Strongman" Johnny Perry


Why do they use steroids and prescription drugs? That is an easy answer.

During a 15-minute match, pro entertainment wrestlers exchange choreographed body slams and punches. Some leap from top ropes onto cement surfaces outside the ring.

No matter how choreographed the moves, imagine lying in the ring and your opponent does an Eddie Guerrero "Frog Splash" on you from 15 feet in the air. Stand on top of a 15-foot stepladder in your front yard, dive off, flatten yourself out so you hit parallel to your lawn. Does it hurt landing? You better believe it. In the more physical "hard-core" matches, wrestlers are smashed through tables, whacked in the head with steel chairs and punctured with barbed wire and tacks. None of these dangerous antics are fake. And you thought pimping was hard. Try being a pro wrestler.

Pro wrestlers have my total respect. They are incredibly well-conditioned, talented athletes who put up with a lot for my viewing enjoyment.

My heart sinks when I see an genuine icon like Ric Flair wrestling at his age and being allowed to get the holy hell stomped out of him for the sake of ever-more violent entertainment. There are no words to describe my anguish over Chris Benoit. May God have mercy on his soul, and may God take Benoit's wife Nancy and son Daniel into his arms in Heaven.

Perhaps Benoit's father Michael said it best: "It's impossible to come up with a rational explanation for a very irrational act." My condolences go out to Chris Benoit's family and to all of those who knew and loved Chris Benoit as one of the greatest pro wrestling entertainers of our generation.

Christian Dior was born in 1905 in Normandy France. His family, who owned a fertilizer company, hoped that he would become a politician, but Dior was more interested in the arts. He studied political science in college to please his parents, but afterwards Dior decided to open an art gallery and sell paintings. The family business suffered losses causing him to have to close the gallery. Later he worked with Robert Piguet and was a primary designer along with Pierre Balmain. Finally in the mid forties he went into business again as a designer..

During WWII fashion style had turned boxy and conservative, Dior changed that by becoming more voluptuous with busty bodices and these new designs were what drew peoples attention. Today Dior shoes, accessories and fashion are among the most sophisticated, elite, and elegant around.

Among the fans are Winona Ryder, and Charlize Theron, and many others. There are probably few Stars who don't have at least one pair of Christian Dior shoes.
