My dad passed away 4 years ago June 16. I have been planning to get a tattoo with his name on it. I was looking for ideas of what I should get. Crosses are so cliche. And I already have one with a snake on it. I don’t want another cross. Any ideas?

I bought a Papillio temporary tattoo kit, and it comes with the regular tatto paper, but it came with this transparent paper and I have no idea what to do with it.
The instructions were very vague.

I would like to learn how to modify standard body piercing jewelry (captive bead rings, barbells, etc.) so that the removable component (such as the captive or threaded bead) can no longer be removed, resulting in permanently-installed rings and barbells. The idea of permanent earrings is mentioned on Wikipedia:

There is a similar example of permanent piercings being used for chastity on the BME Encyclopedia:

I would like to know if there are any manufacturers of non-removable piercing jewelry or what methods would be most effective in converting standard jewelry without negatively affecting the piercing or the look of the jewelry itself.
While other body modifications such as transdermal implants tend to be harder to remove than standard piercings, I would like to know of ways that body piercing modifications can be made to be as permanent as tattoos.
