Steven Tyler&#39;s Daughter Gets an Ultimate Warrior Tribute <b>Tattoo</b>

Posted: 11 Apr 2014 03:21 PM PDT


Aerosmith singer Steven Tyler's daughter Mia has gotten a tattoo featuring the logo of the Ultimate Warrior, a professional wrestling legend who tragically died this week.

We already knew Mia, born to Steven and actress Cyrinda Foxe in 1978, as a successful model and fashion designer. But we didn't realize she was such a devoted wrestling fan. Clearly, she's branded herself as such for life, and we salute her!

The Ultimate Warrior, whose birth name was Brian James Hellwig but who awesomely changed his name legally to Warrior, was one of the biggest WWF (now WWE) stars of the '80s and '90s. He spent most of the last two decades in self-imposed semi-exile, but returned to the company last weekend for the biggest event of the wrestling year, Wrestlemania 30.

He was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame on Saturday April 5, and on live television the following Monday night delivered what's going to go down as one of the most prophetic and moving farewell speeches in the sport's history:

"Every man's heart one day beats its final beat, his lungs breath their final breath. And if what that man did in his life makes the blood pulse through the body of others and makes them bleed deeper than something that is larger than life, than his essence, his spirit will be immortalized."

Sadly, Warrior collapsed in a hotel parking lot the following day and was pronounced dead at age 54.No cause of death has been revealed as of this posting.

Denver Police Department Considers <b>Tattoo</b> Cover up « CBS Denver

Posted: 10 Apr 2014 01:35 PM PDT

DENVER (CBS4) – The Denver Police Department is considering a new policy restricting officers' tattoos and body art, according to a survey sent out to all officers this week.

"The Denver Police Department is in the process of drafting a Mandatory Conceal Tattoo Policy, affecting future new hires as well as active duty officers," said the note sent Wednesday from the department's Planning, Research and Support Division.

The note then asked officers to respond to a survey identifying where on their bodies they have tattoos.

"In order to write a comprehensive policy, it is important to get feedback from all sworn personnel prior to implementation," the notice states.

If the department ends up requiring officers to cover up their tattoos, as suggested by the Wednesday notice, it would be the latest in a long line of law enforcement agencies taking such action.

In 2010, the Aurora Police Department implemented a policy telling officers they had to cover up their tattoos while on duty or have them removed. Officers were given the choice of wearing long sleeve shirts, using makeup kits to conceal their body art, or get them removed completely. At the time, Chief Dan Oates said for some segments of the community, "tattoos are a barrier to building trust." Oates said some tattoos can be perceived as "intimidating."

In Montana, the Great Falls Police Department tells applicants they cannot have tattoos or body art that suggests racism, sexism or gang overtones. They have to cover tattoos on their neck, head, face, ears, hands and fingers while on duty.

In 2008, the Des Moines Police Department in Iowa adopted a new policy restricting tattoos and body art.

In 2011, the Broward Sheriff's Office in Florida implemented a new policy banning visible tattoos on officers.

Nationwide, officers facing tattoo cover up policies have complained wearing long sleeved shirts in summer heat is uncomfortable and hot. Other officers have said their visible tattoos were conversation starters with citizens.

As far as the Denver Police Department goes, Cmdr. Matt Murray told CBS4, "The issue keeps coming up. We have no real policy about tattoos in the police department. This is a pretty common issue that's surfacing around the country."

DPD officers have until April 23 to inform the department on how many tattoos they have and where they are located on their bodies.

"This is purely just gathering research so that the department can write a policy and make a determination about how we should move forward in the future regarding officers with tattoos," said Murray.

Everything You Could Ever Want To Know About <b>Tattoos</b> | Into The <b>...</b>

If you have one hour, six minutes, and 53 seconds to listen to a good podcast episode, stop reading after the conclusion of this paragraph. "Tattoos: Not Just For Dirtbags Anymore," is the title of such a 'sode, from the not only informative, but interesting Stuff You Should Know 'cast, and everything below this shall henceforth be considered a spoiler. A few fun tattoo-related facts:

History

- Ötzi (also known as "The Iceman"), the oldest known preserved human body, has tattoos. Because there was joint disease found underneath each of his tattoos, it is thought that his ancient civilization believed the marks would relieve pain.

-It's believed that the word "tattoo" comes from the onomatopoetic Polynesian word, "tatau," which means, "to strike."

-Sailors—or the men who explored the South Pacific by ship—were the first Westerners to have tattoos. Since sailors were not necessarily considered upstanding citizens, the practice almost immediately became associated with counter culture.

-In a strange turn of events, during the Edwardian era, the society's elite began adopting tattoos as a sort of status symbol, largely due to the opening of the West to Japan and their extremely talented tattoo artists.

-The 1891 invention of the tattoo gun made getting a tattoo more accessible, and thus made the art form less appealing to the upper class.

-Martin Hildebrandt opened the first US tattoo shop in 1846 in NYC (we're so cool), marketing to mainly members of the military.

-After the highly publicized Lindbergh kidnapping of 1932, Americans began tattooing their children with their Social Security Numbers.

-Tattoo parlors in NYC were banned between 1961 and 1997 (maybe we're not so cool), and were illegal in Massachusetts until 2000.

Technique

-Tattoos are created by piercing through your epidermis (which you shed) into your more permanent dermis.

-The needle on a tattoo gun bobs, like a sewing machine, between 50 to 3,000 times per minute.

-Prison tattoos, however, a typically done with things like a staple or a guitar string attached to a toothbrush and dipped into pen ink, burnt shoe polish, or melted Styrofoam or plastic.

-Blue and black ink are the easiest to remove, while green is the hardest.

Safety

-Blood born pathogens are a serious concern when getting a tattoo—going to a highly trusted shop is always the best bet. That said, if the shop is following the three-pronged safety approach (more or less the same as any hospital or medical center), there is a very low chance of any disease transmission.

-According to the CDC, there have been zero reported cases of HIV transmitted via tattoo.

-Tattoos done as permanent makeup—like perma-eyeliner or perma-eyebrows—are frequently done with metallic pigment, which can cause issues with brain MRIs.

-In most circumstances, the American Red Cross will not accept blood donations from people who have gotten a tattoo within the past year.

Statistics

-In the US, the average cost of a small tattoo is $45.

-Approximately $1.6 billion is spent in the United States on tattoos every year.

-14% of all Americans have one or more tattoo.

-40% of 26-40 year old Americans have one or more tattoo.

-There are around 21,000 tattoo parlors in the US.

-17% of tattooed Americans regret getting one, 11% of tattooed Americans have theirs removed.
