Body Art: Tattoos and Piercings
By Ruth Werner, LMP, NCTMB, Massage Therapy Foundation President
A couple of years ago, I was teaching a class about massage and the parasympathetic effect. To make my point, I stood behind a student, put my hands on her trapezius and then began to do some gentle petrissage through her sweater.Chatting blithely away about blood vessel dilation, changes in breathing, and dropping blood pressure, I failed to notice that this poor, polite student was not enjoying her massage. She was wincing, tightening up and leaning away. When I finally noticed and asked her what was going on, she said she had just had a big tattoo put on her shoulders. The whole class gasped in sympathy.
On a related topic, a reader named Tamra sent me this note: "I was standing behind a person in the grocery store with surgical steel ball implants in her cervical area (bilaterally) from about C3 to C7, in what would be considered the lamina groove. I wondered as I was standing there: If she were my client and she had neck pain, what would I do? How would I treat her? I had no answers, only avocados."
I know that I am a good deal older than many of my peers in the massage profession, and I freely confess to being a bit of a fogey about body art. I was so grateful that the threat, "Whatever you have pierced, I'll have pierced. And then I'll show all your friends," worked on my children and I never had to shop for a navel ring. That said, for many people tattoos, piercings and other physical modifications are a mode of self-expression that is important and deeply meaningful. While, like anything, body art can be abused, it can also be very creative and empowering. In the words of Andy Barnett, a professional piercer and tattoo artist, "I want to adorn the body, not mutilate it."
Many of us have clients with various forms of body art. Under some circumstances this can require some adjustments in our work. This article offers a brief primer on tattoos and piercings, the challenges that they may pose for massage, and strategies that can help us be safe and effective practitioners in this context.
Tattoos are pictures drawn on the skin through shallow injections of colored ink. Tattoo artists use tiny needles and a rapidly pulsating machine to deposit the ink just under the skin. Standards for hygiene in licensed tattoo studios are high, so the risk of infection from contaminated equipment is minimal. With "garage artists," this is not always the case, meaning blood-borne infections like HIV, or hepatitis B or C can be spread this way.
The dyes in tattoo ink can be a problem for some people. While inks are safer than they used to be, a lack of regular oversight means that not all inks are hypoallergenic. Allergic reactions are rare, but not unheard of. Because they most often occur in reaction to any color in the red family, new tattoo clients may be counseled to begin using red in small amounts until they know how they'll react. Reactions can cause itching, blisters and bumps (called granulomas) around the edges of a tattoo.
A person with a new tattoo is usually counseled to cover it for a day, avoid submerging it in water for up to two weeks, and rub it frequently with ointment and then with unscented lotion to promote speedy healing. New tattoos involve compromised skin - an obvious contraindication for massage. After the initial tenderness subsides, many people experience intense itching for a few days. This is another caution for massage, which can make itching worse by drawing blood to an area. The safest course in this situation is to wait for any pain and itching to resolve before doing massage in an area with a new tattoo.
Piercings are self-evident, and the variety of body parts that are pierced continues to expand. I remember being both shocked and vastly curious the first time we had a massage student with a nipple ring. (In my own defense, I will point out that these were the days when it was daring to have more than one hole in an earlobe.)
Piercings involve using a special needle to penetrate the skin. Various types of instruments are then inserted into the opening and secured from both sides. The piercing heals when scar tissue forms a tunnel around the instrument. The young woman Tamra described had several long instruments that were inserted to reach horizontally under her skin across the back of her neck.
Depending on the site, piercings can take anywhere from a few weeks to several months to heal completely. At that time, jewelry can be removed and replaced easily. (There's the answer to Tamra's question, by the way: She can take the studs out of her neck to receive massage, if necessary.) Most piercing jewelry is made of surgical steel. Surface piercings, like those on the young woman with the nape studs, have a relatively high rejection rate, but they tend to be most successful when the jewelry is made of surgical-grade Teflon or acrylic, which can conform to the body's curvature. While piercings are healing, the person is advised to keep the area clean and avoid letting anything like hair or clothing catch on the jewelry.
The size of the jewelry is an important safety factor. If it is too short, it can be drawn into the skin, and if it is too long, it can create unnecessary friction as it rubs on nearby structures. Tongue studs that are the wrong size are notorious, for instance, for causing damage to teeth and gums. Other risks with piercings include the possibility of excessive scar tissue or keloids, or trauma if the jewelry is torn out.
Guidelines for massage in the context of piercings are clear: New piercings involve injured skin and must be locally avoided until the lesion has scarred over. On the other hand, older piercings pose no contraindications, and the jewelry can be removed to make massage more effective whenever necessary.
Many thanks to Tamra, who posed this interesting question, and to Andy Barnett of Frankie's Tattoo in Clearfield, Utah, who generously allowed himself to be interviewed for this article. For next time, the floor is once again open. We can continue in this vein with additional information about body art (implants, braiding, scarification, etc.), or we can pick up something entirely different. It's up to you: What's on your table?
Until then, many thanks and many blessings.

Now, I'm still no clinician, but it seems to my (admittedly biased, brown) eyes that the GOP's recent (in)actions indicate that they're collectively afflicted with yet another mental illness…One I had not before considered.
With John Boehner and company shuttering the Federal Government and threatening to not raise the debt limit ceiling, the GOP are purposely hurting We The People, as well as America's standing in the global marketplace. And for what? To draw attention to themselves and sympathy for their issues.
That's classic Münchausen syndrome by proxy!
To appropriate Wikipedia's MSBP definition, the Republican leadership are attempting to "fulfill their need for positive attention by hurting their own child [government and citizenry], thereby assuming the sick role by proxy."
Moreover, with their calls for President Obama to 'negotiate' they are trying to "assume the hero role and garner still more positive attention by appearing to care for and save their child [government and citizenry]."
So, to recap: The Grand Old Party is having a grand old time abusing their positions of power by hurting their constituents just to garner attention on how sick the GOP is over President Obama's sickness safety net. Nothing pathological about that. Nothing at all.
I've long been fascinated by Münchausen syndrome by proxy and I've long thought that the only notable person to have it was Eminem's mother (per his Cleanin' Out My Closet lyrics). But maybe I was wrong. Maybe the GOP collectively suffers from MSBP...and we from them.

Perceptions of Readiness of Selected Units
NSIAD-99-120: Published: May 13, 1999. Publicly Released: May 13, 1999.
Additional Materials:
- Full Report:
(202) 512-5140
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO provided information on military servicemembers' perceptions regarding the impact women have had on selected combat-oriented units, focusing on: (1) the perceptions of men and women on their personal readiness; (2) the readiness of men and women in their unit; and (3) unit readiness.
GAO noted that: (1) the majority of men and women that GAO surveyed about their personal readiness said they were well or very well prepared to perform their wartime jobs considering their training, physical, and mental preparedness; (2) over 70 percent of men and women said they could deploy on short notice with no problems or only minor problems; (3) GAO also asked servicemembers about their perceptions regarding the readiness of men and women in their units; (4) GAO's questions dealt with training and job performance, willingness and availability to deploy, and physical preparedness to deploy; (5) men and women agreed that they were trained equally to complete their wartime missions and would perform their wartime jobs equally well; (6) generally, men believed that they were more physically prepared and were more willing to deploy; (7) women believed that men and women were equally prepared physically and equally willing to deploy; (8) since these units have only recently opened to women, GAO also asked about the impact women have on the readiness on their unit; and (9) although men tended to view the impact of women on unit readiness less positively than women, more than half the men indicated that women affect readiness either no differently from men or in a positive way.

Smoke from forest fires burning in the Northwest Territories is continuing to blow into Alberta, prompting an expanded precautionary air quality advisory for more of the province.
Alberta Health Services first issued the advisory on July 7 for the Edmonton region, but has now extended it to all communities in the north and central zones.
The health authority said anyone who can taste or smell smoke in the air should monitor their symptoms, minimize physical activity outdoors and consider staying indoors. In particular, people with respiratory or cardiovascular conditions should be aware the smoky air may worsen their symptoms, AHS said.
The advisory will remain in effect until further notice.
The Air Quality Health Index was at "low risk" for the entire province as of Thursday afternoon, but is forecast to climb into the "moderate risk" category Thursday night in Fort Chipewyan, Fort McKay and Fort McMurray. The index ratings can be found online at airquality.alberta.ca, or by phone at 1-877-247-7333.

Sasquatch! Music Festival lineup announced
Death Cab For Cutie, Modest Mouse, The Decemberists, Robyn, Wilco, Bright Eyes, Flogging Molly and the previously announced Foo Fighters are among the bands slated for the May 27-30 music festival at The Gorge Amphitheatre.
Seattle Times A&E editor
Sasquatch! Music FestivalMay 27-30, The Gorge Amphitheatre, Quincy, Grant County; four-day packages $285 (www.sasquatchfestival.com).
The Sasquatch! Music Festival has announced a monster collection of bands for Memorial Day weekend at the Gorge Amphitheatre. And true to the festival's name, the lineup has a shaggy, Northwest character.
Top-of-the-bill rock bands Death Cab For Cutie, Modest Mouse and The Decemberists all have Northwest roots.
Among the dozens of other artists that will perform at the annual outdoor event are two skyrocketing Seattle acts — hip-hop duo Macklemore & Ryan Lewis and folk-pop outfit The Head and the Heart — and a bunch of other popular locals: "$5 Cover" band Moondoggies; R&B revivalists Wheedle's Groove; and party rappers Mad Rad included.
Sasquatch!, which will swarm over several stages May 27-30 at the Gorge, is not only about Northwest music, however. It typically presents an eclectic mix of provocative contemporary sounds, and this year is no different.
The evidence: Swedish dance-pop artist Robyn; alt-rockers Wilco; laptop musician Flying Lotus; indie-folk band Bright Eyes; Celtic punk band Flogging Molly; Mexican guitar duo Rodrigo Y Gabriela; Brooklyn rappers Das Racist; funkmasters Sharon Jones & The Dap Kings; singer-songwriter Iron & Wine; and the unclassifiable, ever-experimental The Flaming Lips.
Now in its 10th year, Sasquatch! has been expanded from three days to four, with the addition of a Friday show headlined by Foo Fighters (previously announced).
Four-day passes are now on sale at sasquatchfestival.com, and single-day tickets go on sale at 10 a.m. Monday, Feb. 14.
According to presenter Live Nation, last year's event sold out.
More bands
Also booked: Bassnectar, Pink Martini, Cold War Kids, Old 97's, Ratatat, Wolf Parade, Chromeo, Guided By Voices, Yeasayer, Beach House, Local Natives, Matt & Kim, Deerhunter, Mstrkrft, Trailer Park Boys, Sleigh Bells, Major Lazer.
Skrillex, Fitz & The Tantrums, !!!, Archers of Loaf, Against Me!, The Thermals, Best Coast, CSS, Surfer Blood, Jenny & Johnny, Bonobo (DJ Set), City and Colour, Reggie Watts, K-Os, Gayngs, Tim Minchin, The Drums, The Radio Dept., Young the Giant, The Antlers, Sharon Van Etten, Villagers, Stornoway, Aloe Blacc.
Black Mountain, Noah & The Whale, Sam Roberts Band, Secret Sisters, Twin Shadow, Wye Oak, Tig Notaro, Smith Westerns, Rival Schools, Foster the People, Alberta Cross, S. Carey, White Denim, Washed Out, Gold Panda, Dan Mangan, Axis of Awesome, The Globes, Cotton Jones, Jaill, Basia Bulat, Other Lives, The Bronx, White Arrows, Pepper Rabbit, Talkdemonic, Rebecca Gates and The Consortium, The Young Evils.
Additional bands may be announced.

Monica Rozenfeld moves to Brooklyn with two roommates — a Catholic and an observant Jew — and they each seek understanding of what it means to be religious.
Click this banner to see the entire series.
While there are so many posts written in my head, I thought I should hop on the band wagon and look back on the end of 2010 living in our happy, little interfaith home with Monica and Annie. It's time to take a moment to reflect and remember my kosher kitchenware that has been lost to the traif gods:
Two dairy bowls (donated to Monica and Annie) and two dairy forks (to be re-kashered) were lost a couple of weeks after we moved in during a pasta incident.
A dairy cutting board (donated to Monica and Annie) was lost after it was washed with good intentions. It has since been replaced.
A dairy bread plate mysteriously made its way into our non-kosher sink. It has been donated and we still do not know how it got there.
A meat knife was de-kashered after it was mistakenly used to cut a dairy cupcake (to be re-kashered when the snow melts).
A friend broke one of my glasses. It's okay, especially since I broke one of his wine glasses back in the day while doing dishes.
The last loss of 2010 (I hope the last since there are less than 24 hours …
Holden Caulfield's Moments of Grace
The spiritual wisdom of Salinger's famous teen
Midway through J.D. Salinger's novel The Catcher in the Rye, the protagonist, Holden Caulfield, notices a child walking along the streets of New York City. Even though Holden is in a bad way — he's flunked out of school; he feels isolated from nearly everyone he knows — the child lifts his spirits.
"He was making out like he was walking a very straight line, the way kids do, and the whole time he kept singing and humming. I got up closer so I could hear what he was singing. He was singing that song, 'If a body catch a body coming through the rye.' He had a pretty little voice, too. He was singing just for the hell of it, you could tell."
Holden — unlike the drivers of the cars zooming by, the other pedestrians, and even the boy's parents — notices and appreciates the small singer. "It made me feel better. It made me feel not so depressed any more."
This scene, which is referenced again later in the story, gives Holden a tangible peace. It gives the novel its name. And it gives …
The word sounds ominous enough when it's spoken in reference to an older person, but when it's used to describe the dying months of a 37-year-old woman, it is dreadful to my ears.
One of my all-time favorite people, Elizabeth Bonwich — or "EEEEEEEEEEEEE BEEEEEEEEEE" as I would call her in my best "public address announcer" voice whenever I greeted her — spent her last few months in hospice. She died on Saturday Dec. 18th in the late evening. Elizabeth had five different kinds of cancer for nearly 20 years. Cancer robbed her of her ability to walk without a brace and a cane, caused a constant ringing in her ears and, in general, gave her lots of reasons to be angry at these injustices.
I would often remark to her, "EB, aren't there things in this world that we should be angry at? Like the fact that people go to bed without food or homes, or that evil people often get rewarded for bad behavior, or that people have horrible diseases?"
Elizabeth would agree but would also challenge me: "Being angry doesn't help. But using anger to motivate you to action, that's another matter entirely." Elizabeth's anger never …
At Busted Halo® we love getting feedback about how we're doing — what we're doing right, how we can better serve you, and why you care about our ministry. So this holiday season we asked some fans to share why they care about Busted Halo.
Jack from California
Jack from California:
My name is Jack, and I have been a listener and reader of Busted Halo for about four years. I never get tired of listening to the Busted Halo Cast because of their unique sense of humor but, more importantly, I love the way they approach the questions posed by listeners. The answers Fr. Dave gives are always very insightful, and yet very easy to understand.
At times, I've felt like religion doesn't fit into my contemporary life, but Busted Halo has truly made my Catholic faith approachable. I appreciate that the Busted Halo website looks at things from a young adult perspective and allows for many view points, not just that of the Catholic Church.
Busted Halo has helped me see that religion is still relevant and has helped me explain our Catholic faith to other people. They've inspired me to become active in my parish community and …
After college I had to have my own apartment. Like so many other young women, I saw this independence as an exhilarating and gratifying rite of passage. But it could also be very lonely. I found that at the end of the day, I would put on the television just to have some other voices in the apartment. I really liked to fall asleep with the television on and at the end of the day Lifetime — "the network for women" — was always showing just the right thing to entertain and calm me: The Golden Girls.
The Golden Girls originally aired on NBC from 1985 to 1992. I remember my grandmothers watching it when they came to visit my home, but I wasn't a fan until it was in reruns. Each of the four older female stars, Bea Arthur, Betty White, Rue McClanahan and Estelle Getty, has her own unique personality. Bea Arthur was Dorothy the divorced substitute teacher, Betty White the naïve farm girl, Estelle Getty the wise and spicy Sicilian; but the one I loved the most and wanted to emulate was the devil-may-care Blanche, played by Rue McClanahan.
Yes, there are other, not very flattering …
Every Sunday, all around the globe, a minor miracle is occurring that has gone almost unnoticed: despite continuing revelations about the sex abuse scandal in the Catholic Church, somehow the churches aren't empty. Despite all the terrible news about the Catholic Church sitting at the top of everyone's RSS feed for days on end, it was still standing room only at the Holy Week events. While it is strictly anecdotal evidence, people are still coming to church even when the reports of the sex scandal are so dire. Can you imagine any other organization on earth weathering this type of negative publicity over this long a period and still being able to function?
So we asked young Catholics themselves why they still come to church. Is it simply out of obligation? Do they defend the church? Are they able to see value in their faith despite institutional mismanagement?
Bill McGarvey, Joe Williams and Brittany Janis visited a parish with a large young adult population to ask that question and several others. This video is a small sampling of the many thoughtful answers we received.
But we would like to hear your thoughts as well…
Share your thoughts about the scandal, …
In my recent interview about the spirituality of being on time, I talked about the fact that the spiritual answer is not just to behave, but to change oneself interiorly. Of course, that's beyond the scope of this column, but I want to talk in this column about one aspect of what needs to change: character defects.
In twelve-step recovery programs, there's an inventory process, where the person identifies those recurring patterns or tendencies that have caused them trouble — things like dishonesty, self-seeking, and envy. (Opinions vary as to the benefits of listing specific versus broad defects.) The Sixth Step then says, "Were entirely ready to have God remove all these defects of character." Right away, you'll notice something interesting about the phrasing. It says, "ready to have God remove." This is not a self-help exercise, giving a checklist of things to "work on." We are not running the show. God removes the defect. If you are doing this work, your job is to surrender it to God, to be "entirely" willing.
Not only do we not remove the character defects ourselves, we also don't choose which ones are removed and when — or even if one is …
The Holy Family of Jesus, Mary and Joseph. Father Dave highlights the fact that not just the Family of Jesus is a holy one, but indeed all families are holy. (Preached on Sunday, December 26th, 2010, St. Paul the Apostle Church, 59th St. and Columbus Ave., New York City)
Isaac Thomas Hecker died on December 22, 1888, at the Paulist House on 59th Street in Manhattan.
As the following biography of Hecker illustrates, being a "spiritual seeker" is not unique to the 21st century. Hecker's own faith journey in the mid-19th century included Methodism, political activism, struggles with depression and dark nights of the soul, Transcendentalism, and, ultimately, Catholicism. It also brought Hecker into associations with such titans of 19th-century American thought as Ralph Waldo Emerson, Henry David Thoreau, Bronson Alcott and Orestes Brownson.
The harvest moon hung round and fat and orange over New York City's East River that warm October night. The luminous disk, cutting cleanly into the blue-black sky, released a golden cone of light upon the river's black currents racing into the bay below. Sitting alone on a wharf, a young man leaned against a piling, pulled his knees to his chest and turned his eyes upward to nature's silent grandeur. The gigantic moon floating in the tranquil night bathed his sore spirit.
Seventeen-year-old Isaac Hecker, the youth rapt in contemplation on the East River dock, was experiencing profound loneliness and bewilderment. He had never felt so alone as he did that October evening in …
Is being polite honest? Young adults aren't quite sure. And as Christmas and New Year's parties abound this time of year, there are lots of opportunities to ponder this question as you smile and glad-hand your way through the holidays.
We young folks are a generation raised in the therapeutic culture, readily turning inward to analyze our emotions. But we are also a generation known for blunt communication styles and a lack of fidelity to social conventions. Indeed, for many of the college students I teach, being too polite or conscious of the feelings of others is a concerning sign that you are out of touch with your core self.
Case in point: Ask a college student to define honesty and the response invariably will be inward-focused. Honesty is about personal integrity, being true to yourself and facing your fears, my students tell me. However, challenged to explain their attitudes on outward-focused honesty — honesty in social interactions — the conversation slows to a stammer of uncertainty.
Is it honest to look for the positives in an otherwise distasteful situation? Is it honest to search for some element of shared interest, and focus on that, to get someone to warm …
Still struggling to find a Christmas gift for someone? Consider these suggestions we've made recently.
If you have someone on your list who would appreciate a book, we've highlighted two gorgeous options recently that are easy choices.
The Saint John's Bible is an amazing new illuminated bible we featured last month (Meeting Scripture Through the Illuminated Word) and it has been reproduced in seven gorgeous coffee table volumes, following the classic sections of the Bible. The first six are available and each can be purchased separately. Whether as a treasured home bible, a collection of sacred art, a tool for lectio divina, or all three, it's hard to imagine a better gift for the right person.
Author Judith Dupré contributed an article to Busted Halo recently that was based on her new book, Full of Grace: Encountering Mary in Faith, Art and Life — which is filled with thought-provoking essays and a trove of Marian art. This beautiful volume mixes classic and modern art renderings of the Virgin Mary with 59 essays by Dupré ranging in topic from Mary's Jewish roots to the roles of women, from Our Lady of Guadalupe to Mary's relevance in 21st-century life.

The author's family Christmas trees, 40 years later
Very few of us want to be remembered for the worst moments of our lives. Even if those worst moments are numerous, there have to be some times when we were our better, more authentic and loving selves.
As the days shorten and darkness covers our late afternoons and evenings, we naturally have some extra time to ponder significant moments of our lives. At holiday times, we remember Christmas and New Year celebrations of decades past. For those of us who grew up in households crossed by the affliction of addiction, holiday celebrations were often marred by unpleasantness, if not outright violence.
My Dad had numerous "worst moments" in his life, but it's the holiday snafus that stand out in memory, when alcohol too often fueled his smoldering rage. One Thanksgiving was ruined when, after a liquid feast of Schmidt's beer and Canadian Club instead of turkey, he lost his temper and started wailing on us kids. There was a Christmas when I was home from college, and Dad — who hadn't lived with us for years — showed up drunk. Long and short of it, I had him arrested that Christmas …

After making my way through the panicked hordes of last minute shoppers at Best Buy, I found myself in the long winding line. Standing behind a mom with a wailing baby strapped to her side and a Doritos-munching daughter whose hunger was not satiated by her own junk food and whined for every candy in the aisle, I calculated the damage my mom's last few Christmas gifts would cause my dwindling bank account.
As the mother in front of me valiantly tried to push her four large packages forward, while shushing the baby and keeping her daughters powdered "cheese"-covered fingers away from every impulse offer in the checkout, I felt something buzzing. Struggling to balance my boxes against my hip, I plunged a hand into the abyss known as my purse. As I finally clamped down on the smooth contour of my cell phone the buzzing stopped. The penetrating dirty looks of the shoppers behind me, who wondered what was stopping the gratifying sensation of moving forward (even though we weren't even close to cashiers), compelled me to ignore the call and shuffle on.
After finally paying and making my way into the cool night air I checked my cell …
I don't think it was my parents' goal to raise a family of passionless, non-churchgoing Protestants of an indeterminate denomination, but my religious education was made up mostly of playing Handel's Messiah in the school orchestra and feeling a wistful crush on St. Francis in the movie Brother Sun Sister Moon. That sounds flippant, but those impressions rang a thrilling chime deep inside me that was hard to describe. I found that trying to talk about that feeling with adults brought out the same tone of condescension they would use concerning pre-adolescent crushes. Yes, they seemed to say, you're having some strong feelings you don't understand, but there's time enough for that when you're older.
At college, where questions of ethics (let alone spiritual truths) were considered hopelessly old hat, I came to believe that my childhood yearnings for something "beyond" were in the same category as wishing for a prince on a white steed to whisk me away to a sparkly kingdom. I was not the most likely candidate to sign up for a ten-week class in Buddhist meditation. Yet that is where I found myself, on the recommendation of a therapist. She had described it merely as …
We look to the holiday season to lift our spirits and yet come January we are sometimes utterly depressed because our expectations were not met. There is reason to hope despite our engagement in two wars (or, to be more exact, one war and one occupation); facing global financial insecurity because of corporate greed; people losing their homes to foreclosure; millions of others who have no medical safety net; still more who are homeless, hungry or living under brutal and repressive regimes in Africa and around the world. Despite all this and more, there is reason to hope as we embark on the holiday season. In the center of all of this, in the center of our lives as families, faith communities, neighborhoods — our life together on planet earth — dwells the Prince of Peace. At the very center of who we are dwells the nonviolent One, Jesus the Christ. Our greatest power and our greatest gift come from a manger in Bethlehem and a cross on Calvary: the gift of nonviolence.
The occupying Roman army surrounded the manger; the Cross resulted from the rich and powerful brought to their knees by a nonviolent love they had to kill. …

Our Lady of Guadalupe is beloved by prisoners, gang members and others wounded by life. La Guadalupana © Delilah Montoya, 1999
A while ago, just as summer was ending, I went to an art opening at Yale University. I met a student, a young girl about 18 years old, who possessed the kind of guileless beauty that needs no embellishment. As we talked in the heat of the crowded galleries, she took off her jacket, revealing to my surprise that she was covered, neck to wrist, with tattoos. Inscribed into her body were beautiful, artful images of flowers and storybook characters — several of Maurice Sendak's Wild Things crept along her upper arm, Ariel from the Little Mermaid swam cunningly on her forearm, the rag woman Sally in Tim Burton's Nightmare Before Christmas peeked from behind her elbow. These characters were the ones she loved best from childhood, she said, inflecting her words as though her youth were decades past.
We continued to make small talk, and eventually drifted off into conversations with others, but the memory of her painted skin and quiet beauty stayed with me. I was overwhelmed by the feeling I had been looking at the Virgin …

Mike from Connecticut
At Busted Halo® we love getting feedback about how we're doing — what we're doing right, how we can better serve you, and why you care about our ministry. So this holiday season we asked some fans to share why they care about Busted Halo.
Mike, from Connecticut:
"This year I have decided to add someone new to my Christmas gift list: Busted Halo. The reason is simple, more often than not I find myself nodding in agreement with something that is said on the radio show, written on the website, or covered in a podcast. Addressing everyday issues with a modern Catholic voice is refreshing to all of us who consider ourselves spiritual seekers, but compelling content cannot create itself nor can it distribute itself through various points of contact. That is why I am supporting Busted Halo's Holiday Fund Drive and hope you will consider doing the same."
This holiday season share why YOU care and (from now to January 9th) make TWICE THE IMPACT during our Double Your Dollars Holiday Fund Drive.

FTC to fine Warner unit $1M over kids privacy
Wednesday - 10/3/2012, 8:25pm EDT
NEW YORK (AP) - The Federal Trade Commission is proposing to fine a unit of Warner Music Group Corp. $1 million for violating a child privacy law in the operation of fan websites for artists including Justin Bieber, Selena Gomez, Demi Lovato and Rihanna.
Commissioner Edith Ramirez revealed the proposed settlement in a speech in New York on Wednesday at the annual meeting of the Children's Advertising Review Unit, a self-regulatory group for the advertising industry. A judge would need to confirm the settlement.
Ramirez said that website operator Artist Arena collected personal details like names, email addresses, street addresses and cellphone numbers of more than 100,000 children aged 12 or younger on sites such as BieberFever.com.
"BieberFever.com got off to a bad start ... and things got worse from there," Ramirez said in prepared remarks.
At first, the site required visitors to input birthdates and other personal information, and required visitors under 13 to submit a parent's email address for confirmation, according to a complaint filed Tuesday in U.S. District Court in New York, where Warner Music Group is based.
But after a month of operation, it let underage visitors register and pay for membership without sending an email to the child's parents, the complaint said.
The actions violated the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act, it said.
An FTC spokeswoman declined to comment on the case. Messages seeking comment with Artist Arena and Warner Music were not immediately returned.

just to start this out: I do not now nor have I ever had an eating disorder.
(first pic I am hunching forward, it hides my ribs better. Second picture I am standing as I normally would.)
Yet people keep making me feel like my body is abnormal and gross and that something is wrong with it.
I'm tired of having doctors think my weight is too low, I'm tired of them looking at my chart and realizing I haven't grown or gained weight in almost a decade now, and continually hinting that I should eat more, that it's "okay to snack" (no way! Thank you for letting me know I can snack! *eye roll*), all that kind of stuff. I'm tired of those comments. I'm tired of people asking me if I eat.
I'm tired of having my bones poke out and having people think there is something wrong with me. I'm tired of avoiding bikinis because I don't want my bones to stick out. I'm tired of having to hide my body because I'm afraid of people thinking I'm sick. I'm not.
It's so hard to love my body when everyone keeps telling me I look sick or like I have been starving myself, when people tell me to eat more, all this. It's hard to love my body for what it is. I'm tired of crying over being bony, I'm tired of the anxiety I feel about doctors visits, because I know they'll treat me like I am not normal.
I've been trying since sophomore year of high school to gain weight, I just want to cover my bones. But my body just isn't up for that, not when I ate fast food three times a week with no exercise, nor when I eat healthy and try to work out.
This is just how my body is. This is my body when it is healthy. Why can't my body be a good body?

Victoria sewage fouls Washington-BC relationship
Victoria's long-delayed sewage treatment plans have become an international irritant, with Washington state demanding the British Columbia government step in to stop the flow of raw waste into the Strait of Juan de Fuca.
The Associated Press
Victoria's long-delayed sewage treatment plans have become an international irritant, with Washington state demanding the British Columbia government step in to stop the flow of raw waste into the Strait of Juan de Fuca.
Washington's Gov. Jay Inslee sent a letter to B.C. Premier Christy Clark demanding she order local Victoria-area governments to act after more than 20 years of debates and promises about treating the region's sewage.
"It is now more than 20 years since your province agreed to implement wastewater treatment in greater Victoria, and yet today Victoria still lacks any treatment beyond screening," Inslee wrote in Tuesday's letter to Clark.
"Delaying this work to 2020 is not acceptable," he wrote.
Last month, Clark's government refused to force the Victoria-area municipality of Esquimalt to accept the regional district's plans to locate a proposed $780-million treatment facility on the shores of the community.
The Victoria region's politicians have been scrambling ever since to develop a Plan B for sewage treatment.
Washington supported B.C.'s bid to host the 2010 Winter Olympics partly because the province said the Victoria area would commit to sewage treatment, Inslee wrote. The letter also recalled a 1993 tourism boycott of Victoria over the issue.
Victoria is one of the few remaining Canadian cities that does little to treat its sewage, essentially pumping 34 million gallons of raw effluent daily into the strait, which connects to Puget Sound.
Environmentalists and communities in the United States complain of pollution, while some in Victoria say the ocean acts as a natural toilet that flushes and disperses waste with minimal environmental impact.
Inslee said the sewage issue poses health and economic issues for the area and threatens intergovernmental relations.
"Left unresolved, Victoria's lack of wastewater treatment has the potential to color other regional and national issues at a time when our two countries are working to re-establish steady economic growth through various cross-border initiatives," Inslee wrote.
Clark's office directed calls about the issue to B.C.'s environment minister, Mary Polak.
"We share these concerns, which is why we have directed the (Victoria-area) Capital Regional District to deliver on its requirement for sewage treatment," Polak said in a statement.
"We fully expect the Capital Regional District to meet both their federal and provincial requirements. We have made it clear that sewage treatment will happen; this is not up for debate."
Polak warned that Victoria-area taxpayers could be on the hook for up to $500 million if the cities and districts within the regional district can't decide where to locate a sewage treatment plant.
The provincial and federal governments have committed to fund two-thirds of the treatment plan project, but that money is tied to completion timelines between 2018 and 2020. If that timeline isn't met, local governments could end up paying, said Polak.
