I AM THE 1% #occupywallst #NYC

Boss Tweed, Thomas Nast
Boss Tweed epitomizes the greed and graft in New York City.

William M. Tweed also created one of the most beautiful buildings in Manhattan, right behind City Hall. After paying-off the construction workers who were his friends, the original New York City Courthouse was built at a cost of ten times the standard market rates for construction in the 1860s. The "Tweed Courthouse" is now used by the Board of Education.

Birth of tattooing in Denmark | From sailors to kings #Tattoo

From sailors to kings: the birth of tattooing in Denmark:

"To descend those steps is to visit the birthplace of tattooing in Denmark.

“This is where it all started,” said photographer and author Jon Nordstrøm when The Copenhagen Post met him outside of Nyhavn 17, home to Tattoo-Ole, the oldest functioning tattoo shop in the world.

Photographer Jon Nordstrøm covers over 100 years of history in his photo book ‘Danish Tattooing’

Nordstrøm began researching the history of tattooing in Copenhagen a few years ago, collecting enough photographs, anecdotes and historical artefacts to put together the 300-page photo book ‘Dansk Tatovering/Danish Tattooing’, which he released in 2009."
