What you should know before you get any Asian dragon tattoos:
A brief overview to help you make a better guided decision when it comes to choosing your design.
Dragons have long been important figures in Asian culture. The most commonly known Asian dragons include those from Japan and China, Korea, and Indonesia. Differences among the Asian dragons are minor. For example, Japanese dragons traditionally have five claws, where as in Chinese culture five clawed dragons were reserved for emperors, with four claws being the norm. Personally, my favourite are the Japanese dragons. I like them because of their long "whiskers" and jewel on their chin.
Asian dragons are distinct from their Western counterparts in that in Western culture they are viewed as pure evil whereas in Asian culture they are connected to the emperors and imperial families and are highly respected creatures.
Asian Dragon Tattoos are very popular today due to their rich diversity in design and meaning. These creatures can symbolize guardianship, freedom, wisdom, and empowerment. A unique idea is having a design in which the dragon is breathing out a flame which spells a lovers name or initials, or something similar. In this case, the dragon represents the "fire within", which could symbolize a burning passion for someone or something.
Common locations for Asian dragon tattoos include the full back and upper arm. Upper arm designs usually consist of the dragon wrapping around the arm, with its head extending onto the chest or back. These tattoos are excellent for wrapping around curves and flattering natural body contours.

Star Tattoo Designs - The Meaning of Star Tattoos and Why You Should Get One
Star tattoos designs are one of the most common types of tattoo that people search for and select because of the variation in designs. But why are star tattoos so appealing to many people? A star is such a simple shape but yet so meaningful. When people think of stars, they envision hope, dreams and wishes. Stars also represents fame and success hence the reason why celebrities are referred to as stars. Even fictional characters like Mario are always in the search for stars in the galaxy. Stars always hold a positive image in our mind which is why we tend to idolize them. Even in dreams, it symbolizes success, your ideals and aspirations. Besides these general meanings, people get tattoos of a star because it represents an important changing point in their life. It could remind them of a person that greatly influences and are an important figure in their life.
The star is also a common type of tattoo because people like them for the versatility of the design. It can range from something as simple as a single star on the wrist, to a series of stars on a shoulder blade. The designs can even be as complex as incorporating a design within the edges of the shape such as a flag. Even though a lot of people have star tattoos, it is still appealing to them considering that no design is ever the same unless you choose a star tattoo design from a tattoo parlor that is available to the public. But nonetheless, each star that is permanently inked onto your skin holds a different story and meaning that is personal to you.
Generally when people think of stars, they correlate the figure with women, but that is not always the case. There are plenty of men out there that have multiple tattoos of stars including celebrities like Bruce Willis and Nick Carter. But not only that, star tattoos have the capability of looking nice on any part of the body, which is also another reason as to why male and females get them regardless of the meaning. It can also be easily hidden depending on the size and position of the tattoo. But whatever the reason is for someone to get a tattoo, all that matters is if the star tattoo design they chose represent and is meaningful to them.

Now that we've cleared that up let's get down to the "Re's" of Gloria, she has decided after patching things up with her Re-Fiance because they are Re-Engaged again to Re-Join the cast of Basketball Wives or maybe we should Re-Name the show "Year Of The Hoe's 2010 The Not Basketball Wives." Gloria Govan also wants to send a shout out to all the hoe's in Los Angeles who thought they had a chance at her man she's throwing a party in his honor to officially welcome him to LA and congratulate him in joining the Lakers.

In other related news Basketball Wife Evelyn Lozada's man Chad Ochocinco Johnson confirmed this morning with Ryan Seacrest that the two are Officially engaged to be married. If you'd like to hear the interview here's the link Official interview with Ryan Seacrest. Shouldn't we just say these two are engaged to make some money off their shenanigans. I still think she shouldn't be on the Basketball Wives show anymore even if she is one of my favorites, at this point it just doesn't make sense. You know we always like to keep you informed on these chicks you love to hate with Promo Pics, SUPERTRAILER's, engagement announcements via twitter, and anything else we can get our hands on like magazine covers.
We've got the video back just for you so get ready: Video Phone Raheem Devaughn "She's Single" (Parental Advisory this is rated XXX and I ain't playin)
It appears that Mr. Devaughn might have had us all fooled with those sweet heart felt songs like the hit 'Woman.' I found out just a second ago that he is far from sweet and heartfelt this Ninjas a low-key Porn Star at least in this video with the song 'She's Single' from his mixtape that will be released today "Jacking For Beatz." He is amongst Trey Songz, Chris Brown, Drake and others artist such as Nicki Minaj to release a mixtape. It is the going trend now to promote label-less music where the artist has full reign over the sound, lyrics, videos and everything else that goes into creating an album. But is this one going too damn far? We already speechless from Trey's 'Invented Sex' and Chris' 'No Bullsh*t,' I mean I had to think to close my mouth after watching this for real, #WDDD@? (Where Dey Do Dat At?). I'm warning you now watch at your own risk and don't forget to close your mouth when it's over!
I need to hear your thoughts on this one I think I maybe disturbed, please tell me I'm not the only one!

I just wonder will she ever stop speaking on it? In no way am I saying it was right or wrong I have no opinion of the matter at this time 2 albums later does she really need to use it as a means for sales? Or is it genuine see for yourself we've got a portion of what was said read it here first.
