![]() ![]() VOCs are emitted from products like the pressed wood in some cribs and dresser drawers, crib mattresses, laminate vinyl flooring, and plastic toys. This means that an independent third-party organization has tested a product used around children or the elderly and guaranteed that it emits a low level of volatile organic compounds, or VOCs. While it wasn’t part of our selection criteria, we also noted when a crib was Greenguard Gold certified (formerly called Children and Schools certification). In considering sturdiness, we looked at what type of wood and/or industrial wood products (like fiberboard) were used when constructing the individual parts. ![]() Made of quality materials: We wanted a crib that would last a minimum of four years for one child, and possibly much longer as a crib may be passed down to other family members or converted to a full-size bed.Safe: To be safe for an infant or toddler to sleep in, a crib should comply with Consumer Product Safety Commission requirements, which all cribs sold in the United States do.Readers should know that even though we are recommending these four cribs, many of the six competitors we tested for this guide were not terribly flawed-they usually just weren’t as affordable, as versatile, or as sturdy as our picks. Our other recommendations are a better value, but if you like the looks of the Kendall and budget is less of a concern, it’s a solid option. But it usually costs about twice as much as our main and also great picks, even though it doesn’t come with a toddler bar (you can buy one separately), and doesn’t convert to a full-size bed like our top pick does. Like our top pick and also great pick, it is Greenguard Gold certified for low emissions. If you’re someone who cares a lot that your furniture, including a crib, remains pristine-looking, the Kendall, which comes in white, gray, or a chocolate brown, may be the crib for you. The handsome, classic-looking crib is relatively easy to assemble and is the only crib we tested that comes with teething bars-strips of plastic covering the top rails on both sides of the bed that prevent the gnaw marks that are common on cribs used by teething toddlers. The Pottery Barn Kendall Convertible Crib is made of solid poplar, a hardwood that is much less likely to get nicked and dinged than the softer pine used in both our top and also great picks. ![]()

![]() Does this actually give us a dictionary?Ī ChainMap object is not a dictionary but it is a dictionary-like mapping. Changes to ChainMap objects affect the first dictionary provided and we don’t want user to change so we provided an empty dictionary first.

We ordered our arguments this way to ensure requirement 1 was met. > user =, user, defaults )Ī ChainMap groups dictionaries together into a proxy object (a “view”) lookups query each provided dictionary until a match is found. For concerns about mutability of nested objects, we should look into epcopy.

Our code has two dictionaries: user and defaults. Our Problemīefore we can discuss solutions, we need to clearly define our problem. Let’s walk through the different ways of solving this problem and discuss which is the most Pythonic. There are multiple ways to solve this problem: some are awkward, some are inaccurate, and most require multiple lines of code. Have you ever wanted to combine two or more dictionaries in Python? ![]() ![]() ![]() It no longer holds that power because by making the T-Rex tattoo look silly, it makes the image look a little less scary. By doing so, we take the power away from it. It also helps us to poke fun at the things that scare us. The image itself is cool enough to be a reason for the tattoo but if there is any meaning behind the tattoo, even better. As long as your tattoo artist has the skills to make this giant look real, it can be a really beautiful, yet scary tattoo. If you really want to invoke fear from an image, a realistic T-Rex tattoo is a great way to go. Whatever the reason is, the T-Rex skull tattoo is one that we see often. The skull can also just be a cool image to have tattooed on your body. ![]() Skulls can represent death or a warning of danger. The T-Rex skull tattoo is a common one in this category. The T-Rex tattoo meaning is in the eye of the beholder. Below are some of the more common variations of the T-Rex tattoo that we have seen. ![]() The T-Rex tattoo can be inked in different styles and different images that might portray a unique message. T-Rex Tattoo VariationsĪs with most tattoos, we have seen many variations of this piece. There must be a balance of looking out for yourself and others. The person wearing this tattoo might live life in their own self interest and this can be healthy at times. However, they emit a confidence that others admire and might be a reason for a tattoo. The Tyrannosaurus isn’t worried about that as they only worry about themselves and didn’t hunt in packs. People either love the T-Rex for its aggressive nature or don’t like it because of those same reasons. It is no surprise that the Tyrannosaurus Rex is dividing. Because of the fierceness of the T-Rex and pair it with its intimidating stature, the T-Rex tattoo can really make a strong impression. Getting the T-Rex tattoo might symbolize aggression or power by the person that wears it. In dreams, if you were to see a Tyrannosaurus rex, it might symbolize your fears and be in the image of this carnivorous dinosaur. The T-Rex tattoo doesn’t necessarily mean anything from the standpoint of symbolism but if you ask the person with this tattoo, they might disagree. The largest T-Rex tooth ever found was 12 inches long making it the largest tooth from any meat-eating dinosaur to date. They are spread far apart and aren’t used so much for tearing but for chewing. In the back of the mouth of the T-Rex, the teeth can be likened to deadly bananas. The T-Rex teeth curve backwards which is better for gripping and reduces the chance of the teeth breaking when biting and tearing. This means a tattoo of T-Rex teeth might look very different from the next, but I digress. The teeth of the T-Rex are considered heterodonty which means they are different shapes. One of the most terrifying things about the Tyrannosaurus rex is its teeth. However, because of the incomplete nature of the fossil record, the discovery of larger T-Rex might be tough. Scientists believe there are T-Rex remains that are still buried that might be much larger than Sue is. Not all T-Rex skeletons discovered proved to be as big as Sue but even on the smaller side, they still weighed 4.5 metric tons and that is on the light side. Sue measured 40 feet long, 12 feet high and according to what experts have figured, weighed 8.4 to 14 tons when it was alive. ![]() The largest T-Rex ever discovered resides at the Museum of Natural History and is nicknamed Sue. The T-Rex was one of the biggest carnivores that lived on land of all time. The Tyrannosaurus rex is one of the most feared dinosaurs to have ever existed. Rex means ‘King’ in Latin and this moniker is given for good reason. Tyrannosaurus rex is one the most popular theropods in the dinosaur kingdom. By the end of this post we hope you have a better understanding of what the Tyrannosaurus Rex is all about and give you some fresh and new ideas for you to think about when you get your very own T-Rex tattoo. We’ll talk about what it is and the symbolism of the T-Rex tattoo. In this post we will be talking about the T-Rex. There are many reason why someone might get the T-Rex tattoo. It might also be a way to conquer our own fears by looking at the T-Rex tattoo. The T-Rex tattoo is a way for us to honor this ancient monster. However, many of us choose to embrace the T-Rex and all that comes with it by getting a T-Rex tattoo. This giant carnivore was always the “bad guy” in every movie we have seen involving dinosaurs which made them terrifying to us as kids and even adults. From the moment we saw our first movie involving dinosaurs, the Tyrannosaurus Rex made an appearance in our nightmares. ![]() ![]() We've collected dozens of tips and tricks designed to save you time and money when mapping with your Garmin eTrex 10. ![]() ![]() Thousands of businesses and GPS users depend on ExpertGPS mapping software to upload and download Garmin eTrex 10 waypoints, routes, and tracks, make maps of their GPS data over seamless USGS topo maps and aerial photos, and convert and transfer Garmin eTrex 10 data to and from Excel, Google Earth, ArcGIS, and AutoCAD.

Bush was admitted to Yale despite poor schoolwork in high school by a committee which included three Bonesman. The first example of this goal is the fact that one of the club’s founder’s son became a Bonesman at Yale and went on to become the only man to serve as both Supreme Court Chief Justice and president, William Taft. There are around 800 Bonesmen alive today and the purpose of the club is to keep it’s members in the elite areas of society. Members are called “Bonesmen” and must swear loyalty to the club and its members for life. This makes it Yale’s oldest secret society. In each Yale class, only 15 students are selected for lifetime membership in the secret society that has been around since 1832. Skull and bones is a reality and the film got very close to how that reality works at Yale. It’s interesting how many of the critics missed this and didn’t understand it and blowed it off as silly. To create this secret world of power elites… that was very exciting to me and I got the cast excited about that idea. This is how the elite knits together these bonds that take them through life and keep them in the elite heights of any society, and I was very excited about portraying that with Paul and Josh and all the cast. But I knew a lot about the secret societies, and I thought this is how the elite functions. I had gone to Harvard that had the dining clubs but not the skull and bones, the secret societies. It was a very intense set because I had in my mind that I was telling the story of George Senior and George W Bush. John Kerry, who ran for president in 2004, is also an alumnus. Bush was an alumnus of the real Skull and Bones secret society at Yale. At the time, it was also especially relevant as then-president George W. While Luke McNamara and Caleb Mandrake are completely fictional characters, writer John Pogue went to Yale and director Rob Cohen went to Harvard and the story is absolutely meant to portray real aspects of how elite secret societies function. Director Rob Cohen liked working with Paul Walker so much, he hired him to star in his next film, The Fast and the Furious (2001). However, Luke keeps investigating and eventually the secret society turns on him and seeks to eliminate him as a threat to their secrecy. Luke is suspicious, but Caleb tries to convince him that he needs The Skulls to fund his dream of going to law school more than he needs to uncover the truth about Will. Tensions arise when Luke’s friend Will is killed while investigating The Skulls for an expose in the school paper and his death is framed as a suicide. ![]() If it’s secret and elite, it can’t be good. Upon initiation he is given wealthy heir Caleb Mandrake (Walker) as his partner. To the displeasure of his friends Chloe (Bibb) and Will (Hill Harper), Luke is invited to join the most prestigious secret society at the school, The Skulls. The plot of The Skulls follows Luke McNamara (Jackson), a working class orphan and junior at a prestigious (unnamed) Ivy League school he attends on a rowing scholarship. ![]() The Skulls starring Joshua Jackson, Paul Walker and Leslie Bibb is a memorable early 2000s thriller both because of its teen stars and because it was based on a salacious open secret: there really is a secret society at Yale called “Skull and Bones” and if you look up their list of alumni you’ll find former presidents, judges, diplomats and owners of major media outlets. ![]() ![]() This stage of treatment may require more than one surgery. During surgery, your doctor will either swab or take samples of the infected tissue to find out what type of bacteria is causing the infection. If you have an infection after surgery, your doctor may initially treat it with antibiotics alone, but you will likely need additional surgery to clean out the infection. Depending on the severity of your injury, you may require several debridement and irrigation procedures. It is suggested that people with open fractures undergo debridement and irrigation as soon as is reasonable, ideally within 24 hours of sustaining the injury. This procedure, called debridement and irrigation, is typically performed in an operating room. Your doctor will then clean the wound and remove as much contamination as possible from the skin, soft tissues, and bone.You will be started on antibiotics as soon as possible in the emergency room.SymptomsĪn open fracture is a surgical emergency. Other factors include having morbid obesity, poor nutrition, or poor hygiene. These include, first and foremost, smoking and using nicotine products. You may also be at greater risk because of the lifestyle choices you make. Risk FactorsĬhronic diseases that lower your immune system may put you at greater risk for infection after fracture. This occurs when bacteria enter the body during another surgical procedure (such as a tooth extraction or root canal) and make their way to the implants used to treat the fracture. Less commonly, an infection can occur at the surgical site even long after the injury has healed. Preventative antibiotics are given before surgery to lower the risk for infection. ![]() The risk for developing an infection in this setting is quite low, usually less than 1% in healthy individuals, although this varies depending on the injury and the operation performed. Surgeryĭuring surgery to fix a fracture, the doctor cuts through skin and soft tissues to reach the broken bone.

However, one minor downside is that the sun and moon still have angular shapes, which could benefit from more realism in future updates. During sunset, the clear blue sky transforms into an orange-red spectacle, reminiscent of real-life sunsets. Regardless of the time of day, the sky looks fabulous with realistic clouds that resemble shaders. The New Default+ texture pack also includes breathtaking new Minecraft sky textures. Each biome has its own unique look, adding depth and diversity to the game’s environment. For instance, snowy biomes now feature snowed-in trees in forests and frozen zombies at night, adding immersive details to the game world. In addition to texture variation, the New Default+ texture pack also brings new features to various biomes. However, it’s worth noting that these variations only work with Optifine, a popular optimization mod for Minecraft, and the textures are randomly assigned with no player influence. ![]() Creepers also adapt to their environment in caves, making them harder to spot as they behave like chameleons. ![]() For example, there are now over 45 different types of wolves, each with their unique colors. This means that blocks, items, and mobs can have different appearances, adding much-needed variety to the game. While there are some subtle color changes in the XP bar, the hunger bar and health indicator remain unchanged, retaining the familiar Minecraft aesthetic.Īnother significant enhancement in the New Default+ texture pack is the introduction of texture variation. The title screen now features cleaner buttons, and the inventory and other interfaces have a fresh new look that is uniformly designed. Upon installing the New Default+ texture pack, players will notice several changes in the graphical user interfaces (GUIs). Notably, the pack introduces a unique feature where the durability of a sword gradually decreases, resulting in a duller blade, when used extensively, adding a realistic touch to the game. The textures are designed to harmonize well with each other, creating a cohesive and visually appealing experience. One of the main highlights of the New Default+ texture pack is its seamless integration with the vanilla textures, resulting in a familiar yet modern look with vibrant colors.

But for the fluorescent pink shade, the production used Rosco's entire supply. The seemingly white shade on set is, in fact, a very light pink. Naturally, the sets required a lot of pink paint. The movie used up one company's global supply of fluorescent pink paint. The dolls Skipper and Midge live in the treehouse. This treehouse was replicated from the toy, which was the doll Chelsea's treehouse. In Barbie's cul-de-sac, there's a 1985 treehouse marked by a sign that reads "This property has been placed on the National Register of Historic Places" by "Barbie Department of the Interior." Nearby, there's a toy version of the treehouse with the name "Chelsea" next to it. $25 at Walmart The treehouse was replicated from the toy. A dance number calls for a sparkly makeover. ("The world outside had to become the wallpaper," Greenwood notes.) Each home has a chimney that visually grounds it, but the overall architecture is a bit skeleton-like and was challenging to make sturdy. Without walls, the homes are mainly floors, poles, and beams. While the dream houses look simple, that’s the very reason they were challenging to construct. There's no fakery there." Constructing the dream houses was an enormous engineering challenge. "When people were on the top bedroom floor, they had to be wired off," Spencer tells House Beautiful. ![]() "It has the odd effect of making the actors seem big in the space but small overall."Įven though the homes were scaled down, they were still large structures. ![]() "The ceiling is actually quite close to one's head, and it only takes a few paces to cross the room," Gerwig told Architectural Digest. The dream houses were adjusted to 23 percent smaller than human size. Look out for pink monkey statues, the flamingo mailbox, the wardrobe with glass doors (meant to mimic the urge to rip through a plastic Barbie box), and the kidney-shaped pool with a spiral slide (Robbie’s favorite feature). It's the feeling of a dream house." Stereotypical Barbie's dream house has so many details viewers won't want to miss. "And you go, Well, maybe that's what it feels like, which is good, but it's not a dream house. "It's very interesting because everybody says, Oh my God, it's just like a dream house I used to have," Greenwood says. Placing the houses in a circle allowed for this and ensured Barbie could see all of her friends. Logistically, it was also important for the production to easily shoot from one house to another. The midcentury modern architecture lent itself nicely to the basic elements of the toy houses that the team focused on, like an open flow between rooms with no walls. They landed on this design route early on in the process since they knew they weren't looking to replicate an existing Mattel Barbie dream house. Greenwood and set decorator Katie Spencer specifically looked to Richard Neutra’s 1946 Kaufmann House, which happens to be one of the filming locations featured in Don’t Worry Darling. Studios lot outside of London, the Barbie dream houses were inspired by the midcentury modern architecture and cul-de-sacs in Palm Springs. Painted backgrounds add to Barbie Land’s artificial feel.īuilt at the iconic Warner Bros. Take her fridge, for example, which includes a decal of food and beverages for the interior and "toy" versions of them in the door shelving that Barbie can actually pick up. Barbie's dream house includes a blend of 3-D and 2-D features as the actual toys do. ![]() As you get closer to the center of the sets, items become 3-D. Across Barbie Land, the 50-foot-tall painted sky stretched 800 feet around the studio with 35-foot-tall mountain cutouts set against them. Greenwood compares the Barbie sets to dioramas and museum exhibits because they feature layers of 3-D and 2-D elements. "So the streets are written as Barbie Land, and the 'i' is the circle that they live in." Barbie Land is layered with 3-D and 2-D elements. "When you go into Barbie Land, you go into the dot of the 'i' of Barbie Land," production designer Sarah Greenwood tells House Beautiful. If you thought the Barbie Land lettering in the film was just a cute design introductory to the fantasy world, you didn't look close enough. ![]() ![]() The program’s gesture and touchscreen features can be easily customized from “Settings.” A two-finger swipe lets you undo selections.
