Well, we've done it troops. Approaching the three year milestone of TribeTwelve, we've hit 30,000 subscribers. I never thought I'd ever have that many viewers on my silly little project when I started out, but three years and 40 videos later, damn am I grateful. This experience has been an immense pleasure, meeting new faces from across the planet, getting recognized at conventions, being known across the web, traveling to hang out with new friends, and building a universe around all of our ideas. Despite the hardships I had to endure, the perseverance has paid off and then some, making a nice little dent in the internet. Just belonging to such a creative influential machine makes me so proud.
As for the future of TribeTwelve, I have many things planned - but I'm not entirely sure when I'll be able to get them out due to college really bearing down on me and my internship at a medical campus. Mainly, writing this large and critical piece of media for the project has held me back from continuing to make videos. Without finishing it, I really don't feel comfortable posting the next videos. However, I think that what I have planned will be worth the wait once content begins going up. When I say that I value quality over quantity, I mean that.
I'd like to thank all of my wonderful fans, devious and otherwise, for sticking with me and my project despite the delays and hiccups as well as spreading our projects across the net. Thanks for all the fan generated content, my appreciation for your respect of my work means so much to me. I also want to thank everyone who's helped me work on the project since it's conception, without you guys we wouldn't have the devoted following exhibited today. This has been a unforgettable experience that I cannot wait to continue. I think Jeff Koval of EMH said it best when he hit his 30,000, "Whether you consider yourself a fan, a casual viewer, a critic, a friend, a loved one, a fellow creator of a similar project, (or even if you "hate" me, which some people would somehow promise), then I thank you for sharing this moment with me."
I couldn't have said it better myself.
Love you all,
~ Adam Rosner

ZIP Codes - Key Concepts
- ZIP Codes are categories for grouping mailing addresses and are not exact geographic regions.
- The centroid of a ZIP Code may be in one County and the associated city/town in another.
- In rural areas, a single ZIP Code may be used for cities and towns in several different Counties.
- ZIP Code "areas" can overlap, be subsets of each other, or be artificial constructs with no geographic area.
- ZIP Codes are only loosely tied to cities.
1 Keeping the above key concepts in mind, what we informally refer to as the "center" of a ZIP Code is most often actually the centroid of a polygon.

Prostate Cancer Health Center
Early Baldness in Black Men: Prostate Cancer Link?
"We know an increase in DHT increases prostate cancer occurrence and progression," she said. "But it is also related to thinning of the hair follicles." That thinning makes it difficult for hair to survive.
Dr. Otis Brawley, chief medical officer of the American Cancer Society, said the study provides "more evidence of a link that has been talked about since the '70s."
The finding about balding in younger men is the newest information, he said.
Another expert, Dr. Lionel Banez, a research investigator at Durham Veterans Affairs Medical Center in Durham, N.C., said the new findings are important "because this is the largest cohort of purely African-American men published which examines the link between baldness and prostate cancer."
However, it is "quite premature" to use the findings to make any clinical recommendations about screening for the cancer, he said.
If other research confirms the link, Zeigler-Johnson said doctors might decide to follow and screen balding men more closely for prostate cancer.
One screening test for prostate cancer is the PSA (prostate-specific antigen) blood test, which measures normal and cancerous cells in the prostate gland. When PSA levels are high, it sometimes indicates cancer.
"We still do not know if prostate cancer screening saves lives," said Brawley. Currently, the American Cancer Society recommends informing men of average risk, without symptoms, of the known pitfalls (such as false "positive" results) and potential benefits (early detection) of prostate cancer screening beginning at age 50. They then can make a decision about screening.

I am really loving writing for this blog that my friend Mary started! I wrote about it awhile ago, but we've been going strong for over a month now, and I am really appreciating the way it forces me to spend a dedicated part of each week writing. I post on Saturdays, so normally (being the procrastinator that I am) I tend to spend a few hours each Saturday in front of my computer banging out a few hundred words. Having that deadline there as a motivator helps me so much.
I just finished the third part of my telling of the Cooper Spur hike that Eric and I did this summer. I'm really happy with how it turned out although had I wrote it all at one time instead of in three parts, there are surely things that I would change. You can read them all here:

"In July, Hadley took a call on his 2GB program from "David" proclaiming to be a neighbour of Flannery's. Flannery owned a waterfront home, the caller said, detailing its precise location and highlighting his apparent hypocrisy on sea level rises. The story took off: Andrew Bolt took to his blog with further details of the house (including a Google map) and its value, The Daily Telegraph went to print with a story, and after promising an "intelligent article" on the issue of sea level rises, Flannery claims, The Australian's Ean Higgins wrote a piece rehashing the Hadley revelations."
"Carter is paid for time-consuming professional work as co-editor of a Heartland publication that rivals the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change Assessment report. He reads scientific papers, summarises them, and collates them for Heartland's nongovernmental international panel on climate change report. For this he is paid $1667 a month. Mammalogist Tim Flannery is paid 10 times more by Julia Gillard to make pop predictions about catastrophic climate change that never seem to eventuate, and he is hailed as a great savant.
Singer receives $5000 a month as co-editor of the NIPCC report, which he says he founded in 2007 "to provide a platform for scientists sceptical of the UN-IPCC reports, and (I) turned to Heartland to publish the report: it neither writes nor controls the content … The whole purpose of our NIPCC reports is to present the evidence that natural forces control climate change, not emissions of CO2 from the use of fossil fuels."
Why shouldn't Carter and Singer be paid for their time?"
because in the case of Carter he declares on his personal webpage that "he receives no research funding from special interest organisations".
"Take Adelaide geologist Ian Plimer, demonised by climate alarmists since the publication of his best-selling book Heaven and Earth."
The guy should be demonised; he writes books on a subject he has no idea about and is thus spreading misinformation and hindering action on a problem in which our planet is at stake. He is a demon in every sense of the word. I guess he probably didn't spring from hell though if Satan exists his sending climate skeptics to stop action on climate change so our world is doomed is not inconceivable.
"But the Hawkesbury River where Flannery's home stands has steeply rising banks. Waterfront homes there are several metres above sea level and are not endangered by a one metre sea level rise."
"As Flannery pointed out to any journalist who asked, his house in fact sits above the most radical projections of sea level rises."

Scholars Examine Latino Immigration and American National Identity
These conclusions appear in a research symposium entitled "Immigration and National Identity," edited by Gary M. Segura (
In "Culture Clash? Contesting Notions of American Identity and the Effects of Latin American Immigration," Segura and Luis R. Fraga (
In "Mexican Americans and the American Dream" Richard Alba (The University at
Susan Eckstein (
The fourth article, "Mexican Immigrant Political and Economic Incorporation," was co-authored by Frank D. Bean, Susan K. Brown, and Ruben G. Rumbaut (all from the University of California, Irvine) and investigates the empirical basis of the claim that American identity and culture is being undermined by a "trend toward cultural bifurcation" driven by Mexican and Latino immigration. The authors observe that despite the widespread use of data in the immigration debate, "actual longitudinal data that track individual immigrants over time or measure true intergenerational change...have largely been lacking." Available information is based on "short-run, static depictions of the incorporation experiences of new immigrants," and understandably "invites the conclusion that...Mexican immigrants in particular, are generating a permanent and largely illegal underclass." Drawing upon new survey data, they address two important claims: that Mexican immigrants are not transitioning to residency or citizenship, and that Mexican immigrants aren't making educational gains. The new data show the proportion of Mexican immigrants who transition to legal residency after arrival has doubled in the past 20 years, making clear that "unauthorized migration status can and often does change...and is not a permanent, static property of Mexican immigrants." Notably, almost half of illegal immigrants had transitioned to citizenship 30-35 years after arrival. These transitions, in turn, have opened other doors to assimilation as "substantial education gains are evident across generations" as well: 52% of those whose immigrant fathers had naturalized have received college degrees or college education, compared with 43% of those whose immigrant fathers were still legal residents and 13.6% of those whose fathers were still unauthorized. The authors conclude that their research "uncovers considerable upward economic mobility" rooted in patterns of transition to authorized status and educational improvement over time--findings contrary to...fears about their intentions and unassimilability."
This research speaks directly to fundamental questions such as the nature of American society and its core principles, the ability of recent immigrant groups to attain the American Dream, their social and political status in the

Hey yall, the children's book I illustrated is finally for sale!
There is a Mouse that is Haunting our House
In other news, fall semester is over, so I'm hoping to start taking commissions during my break for extra work. My prices are still fluctuating so I still gotta decide over that. Let me know if anyone's interested!

You must be logged in to comment on this post.
if i buy book do u git paid... how much wur u paid??
If you buy the book, you'll help me become noticed! : )
Congratulations on being in print! Forgive me if I asked this before, but was this a commission work or are you going to see a few bucks from sales?
As a single, old bachelor, I got a kick out the 1st of 2 screenshots of the pages.... look at the size of that wedding ring!! Bad sales point, from my perspective....
I don't get any royalties. I started this book when I was 16 and the Author is a relative so I accepted it at the time without the promise of getting paid. I was just happy for the exposure.

Louis's Tiny (but Grand!) Chinoiserie Menagerie
Nursery Tour
Location: Boston
Room Size: 64 square feet
What do you do with a baby on the way and an 8'x8' room in which to fit his nursery? You scoff at the tiny footprint of the room, and you fill it with grand style, bright colors, and captivating artwork, of course. At least, that's what Amanda Pendleton did for baby Louis. She also threw in her love of Chinese decor and some faux taxidermy for a truly remarkable and grown up nursery that is perfect for her sophisticated little man.
Amanda successfully disguised a beat up $40 chest and a handful of thrift store frames and accessories among a sea of gorgeous royal blues and golden greens, custom bedding, and elegant mid-century style furniture. She insists that her secret was to focus on creating a space she loves and which is comprised of pieces that could fit in any other room in her house. Her efforts result in a gorgeous room any adult would be happy to slumber in, but which somehow seems just right for a baby boy.
How would you describe the look and feel of this room? I would call it Palm Beach Regency meets Mid-Century Modern. I wanted it to look sophisticated enough for grown ups, but still fun for a baby. Ultimately I picked colorful fabrics, prints, and brass accents that I loved and would make me happy during 3am diaper changes!
What was the inspiration for the room? I was inspired by Chinoiserie style on a trip to China right before I got pregnant. That's probably why I was drawn to the Chiang Mai Dragon fabric I used on the crib bedding and the gilded bamboo frames.
What was the biggest challenge decorating the room? The size! The room is only 8' x 8'. To fit a full sized dresser and crib in the nursery, I had to put the rocking chair in the living room. I also used the large window sill as a make-shift bookshelf because there wasn't any more floor space.
What is your favorite piece or element? I love how our gallery wall turned out. All the art pieces are originals. I mixed in gold painted faux taxidermy with photos, watercolors, and oil paintings from my favorite artists on Etsy. It's a mix of contemporary art — with baby-friendly animal photos — and they could all easily be used in different rooms once Lou grows out of the nursery. The frames are all from flea markets or antique shops, collected over months. Every time I found a gilded bamboo frame I snapped it up, then found art pieces to fit and had a custom mat cut for each one.
If money were no object, what's your dream source? 1st Dibs, Design Within Reach, ducduc, and The New Traditionalists for nursery furniture
Do you have any advice for parents creating a room for their child? Pick what you love! Minus the crib, I can see using this room as an office or guest bedroom. I can also see using each piece in a different room of a future home.
What is your proudest DIY? I had been hunting for a campaign chest for months when I found this one on Craigslist in horrible condition. I bought it for $40, polished the brass hardware, and put about six coats of glossy white paint on it—and it looks as good as new! I used it for storage in our upstairs loft until I realized it would make the perfect changing table. We attached the changing pad to the top, and we had a new changing table for under $100. (The brass animal heads on top are for styling only!)

Great job creating an eclectic nursery.
One question... the changing pad... I believe those things are supposed to be taller on the sides, to prevent the baby from rolling, like a u shape.
I'm so confused about bumper pads. I keep reading they are NEVER to be used, yet they appear in every AT nursery post. Perhaps they are removed before the baby goes in the crib?
I love the elephant bookends! This also inspires me to use the gilded bamboo frames that I picked up from the thrift store and shoved into storage.
YTess, I am guessing that it is U-shaped and the cover is just pulled taut. Ours does that too before we use it after each washing.
And Kate, I agree! I wonder why so many parents are still buying and using bumpers -- and why they're still being manufactured. I'd rather risk a little bruise (my 10-month-old got her leg stuck between the bars for the first time last week) than something much worse.
My ex-gf would love those elephant bookends! And the plush elephant too. I am concerned about the antelope busts on the changing table, with the sharp horns and all.
Oh my goodness, this is adorable! I love the color and the furnishings, but that brick wall really takes it up a notch. So pretty.
These colors are so great! This is a lovely room that's great for a child, but not too juvenile.
I hate to be critical of such a nice nursery, but I also don't understand spending money on a crib bumper that can only be used for decoration, and must be removed when the baby is in the crib. The fabric on the inside of the bumper is so pretty - I might have used that for the curtains. All in all, though, a really nice job.
The antelope heads caught my eye, in a bad way, too. I know they are just for styling, but I can't help imagining them interfere with function. The room looks just great, very fun and elegant.
According to the American Academy of Pediatrics, there is no evidence that crib bumpers protect against injury, but they do carry a potential risk of suffocation, strangulation, or entrapment because infants lack the motor skills or strength to turn their heads should they roll into something that obstructs their breathing. As a new mom, it really bothers me when I see bumpers in nurseries on AT posts, because it flies in the face of current safety guidelines based on actual data. Particularly when our interiors affect not only beauty, but also the safety of our youngest family members, should form not follow function?
Very pretty nursery! Love the colors, artwork, cowhide, and especially the elephant bookends.
I was going to defend Amanda by reminding everyone that there is such a thing as a breathable crib bumper, but then I looked up the etsy shop that made the bumpers. Not breathable. Amanda - they're cute, but they have to go.
I wouldn't worry about the kid impaling himself of the antelope just yet. Newborns aren't moving too much when getting changed. To be completely gross, I would worry about one of those antelopes being in poo-shot.
I've had to clear a lot of stuff off my little one's dresser after learning that the hard way;)
What a gorgeous room. I just wonder if there is a way to fit in a more comfortable chair so that you can nurse or feed the baby while admiring your masterpiece! Great work!!!
Agreed. Beautiful room! But the way my 3-month old wriggles around on the changing table, I wouldn't have those pointy things anywhere near him.
Bumper pads should not be used (breatheable or not). I was a therapist in the early intervention field- working with prenatal and postnatal mothers. Part of my job was to educate and instruct new parents on setting up their nurseries. The 'no bumper pad' guideline was only established about a year or 2 ago so this is still relatively new information for a lot of parents. But with that being said...I do love the concept of creating a nursery that is "sophisticated enough for grownups but still fun for a baby" as well.
Well, what do you know? APT therapy has covered the crib bumper topic already:
So nice to see ideas for a seriously effing-small nursery for once. Those urban townhouse "second bedrooms" are tough!
Adorable nursery! Love the fabrics.
On a side note: I have two grade schoolers who survived their bumpers.
interesting that more than half the comments are chiding the homeowner about safety risks. Lots of parents use bumpers (americans and abroad) without causing any harm. lots of parents co-sleep without rolling over on their babies. lots of women eat junk food, drink coffee, eat sushi, drink raw milk during pregnancy without harm. can't we all just agree that people are allowed to do things their own way and keep the judgement to ourselves? it's annoying on a design blog.
regarding the design of the room - Amanda, i love the way you turned a challenging space into something perfect for a baby and beautiful for adult sensibilities! the fabrics are lovely, the collection of bamboo frames are a great way to display artwork, and that chest is a steal! great job - nice to see something different from the usual nurseries.
I'm fascinated by comments from experienced parents about (what they see as) naive newbie parent nursery decor.
AT - I'd love to see a Before & After series of nurseries, with the Before being the nursery before the child arrives and the After being the nursery 6 months after life with the kid.
(If this seems impossible, I'll take B&As of our own nursery when the time comes.)
Love the room! Colorful without being childish. Most of all, I can tell it was made with love. The comments though....ugh. this room is styled (very well) for the photos. she even mentions it. yet, you all have to chime in with your safety issues.
lots of people buy bumpers and don't use them. i did with my first. it was silly, but i was giddy with my first baby. i never used it, and never bought one for baby #2 or #3. i don't judge new parents for doing it. you can't just look at the pretty pictures she set up for you? let her have fun, for goodness sake!
Love it. Well done!
this bebe will grow up with good taste
Mentioning safety issues of the crib bumper is not being judgemental- it is exactly what it is: mentioning a safety issue. Ultimately it's up to every parent (and every individual) to make the choices that they are most comfortable with. I can't speak for everyone else's motives but a person should feel free to state their opinion/observation without worrying about the defensiveness of others. My comments, specifically, were not meant to tear down...rather it was meant to inform. I've been on AT for a little over 2 years and I've seen comments about the safety of stair cases, glass decor, waxy floors, shelf placement...you name it. That home owner or renter probaby won't change a thing, and rightfully so- it's their space but if a person isn't open to hearing varied view points, then this probably isn't the appropriate forum for them.
Lovely room! Great job on all the DIY! I'm in the middle of designing my nursery and I'll be lucky I mine turns out half as nice as this!
By posting nursery tours which feature crib bumpers -- and listing where readers can buy them! -- AT is de facto agreeing with and advocating their use -- which flies in the face of recommendations and warnings from every single pediatric and consumer safety organization in all of North America.
It causes confusion for AT readers and is nothing short of irresponsible on the part of AT.
But hey, I've been complaining about this issue here for years, and nothing changes.
p.s. Every year in our city, there are one or two tragic cases of young children who fall out of apartment windows. All operable windows need child-proof bars.
If they were that unsafe, wouldn't they be taken off the market? My kids survived bumper pads but my bumper pads didn't survive my kids. The ties would always rip off from getting stepped and pulled on. I guess I feel kinda silly for having thought I needed to have them to prevent head trauma during naptime. And there will probably be loving moms who will feel equally silly some day --when their kids are safe and grown up-- for having worried over certain things.
In regards to the whole "my two children survived with bumpers" and "plenty of kids are alive who slept in cribs with bumper pads," there are many babies who don't survive and are suffocated in their cribs. Worst argument ever. Why anyone -- and I'm not saying this mother is doing it, because I don't know anything about her personally -- who is aware of the dangers would risk that for aesthetic reasons is beyond me. What is it going to take for this to become as unacceptable as riding in the front seat of a car cradling a baby in your arms?
And yes, AT is centered around design and decor but that does intersect frequently with functionality and safety. To say this isn't the place to bring that up is silly; it's exactly the right place to educate (and inspire) others, in my opinion.
Anyone know a source for Shumacher fabrics without being "Trade"?

What a sophisticated and lovely palette in such a cool space. Congratulations on your new baby! I'd love to see an update how the space changes once he's mobile. Thanks for sharing.
Love the use of colour!
So sorry about the multiple post. Operator error.
Love this tiny jewel box of a room. What a lucky little boy!
The ceiling track for the curtains is a nice professional touch, and so clean looking. This is a very well-curated space! The combination of colors within each piece of art creates a beautiful whole. Thank you for sharing your beautiful space.
I'm 23 yo and I want this room!
Ditto on the annoying chiding and the thumbs up for the room.
Glad that the AAP took a moment out from kissing up to big pharma, not requiring it's members to know anything about breastfeeding and not supporting single payer to talk about bumpers.
Beautiful room, would love to see it in 6 months ;)
A friend recently had to explain to the dry cleaner that the stain on the curtains he brought in was poop that had flown across the room.
The room looks great but someone needs to look up Chinoiserie decor. This is not even close. Fake taxidermy is a trend that needs to die.
This is a beautiful room. Safety marshals, you are incredibly annoying. If we were interested in your opinions we would read your mom blogs.
I think it's a perfectly nice room! We used a changing pad on top of a dresser that was much smaller than this one with no problems. And we never got poo on the carpet or drapes or anywhere outside of the butt-zone, so I don't know what everyone is going on about.
Probably one of the best nurserys on AT. A few tweaks & a twin bed & it'd be a perfect guest room. As for the stupidly repetitive safety comments; MYOBB-mind your own baby business.
I'm loooooving this nursery! Kudos. When did this crib bumper thing go into effect?? My twins are 5 and I have never heard of it....oops. :/ ??? Totally can see the reasons why tho but dang these people change "the rules" every few months it seems!!! I can't keep up!!
Wow, some of these comments are incredibly critical of people who are merely trying to bring child safety to the forefront. I'd find it fascinating, if it wasn't so disturbing that you feel the need to attack others for raising a valid point that could in fact save a child's life. That's "annoying" and "stupid"? Jeez.
Cute! (except for the animal carcass on the floor.)
A study of bumper pad safety that looked at a 20 year period (1985 to 2005) found that 27 deaths could be attributed to bumper pads. Some of those deaths were due to strangulation by the ties, and since then manufacturers have followed guidelines to ensure that ties are a safe length. There are also requirements for a minimum number of ties that bumper pads should have to ensure they don't come away from the sides of the crib. Of course homemade bumper pads (if the person is not aware of standards) could be more dangerous. There is some speculation that bumper pads can increase the risk of SIDS (presumably due to reduced air flow) but nobody knows for certain. I am completely comfortable using bumper pads for my children, but I do remove them once the child can stand up, as the National Safety Council recommends. Of course the death of any child is tragic, but 27 deaths over 20 years is not a lot. There are many more dangerous things in the world.
As for the nursery itself, it is gorgeous! And, yes, there are many chinoiserie elements in the room, which I love. I'm doing a circus-themed nursery for my next baby, and have some similar ideas that I'm going to include. Amanda did a great job with a small space.
@loveyall and @Jen Spends - the bumper pads are from an unregulated etsy seller who doesn't mention anything about adhering to safety standards or even the type of fabric used in the bumpers.
The study examined historical records, only identifying where the deaths were actually attributed to bumpers by the investigating authorities (i.e., coroner). If you read the full study, you will note that they write something to the effect that the actually number of deaths due to crib bumpers is likely many (many) times 27 over 20 years, but they have no way of determining or estimating the likely number. Add to that the issue of SIDS and air circulation...
I just don't get why aesthetics could ever trump the health and safety of a baby...
I don't believe parents remove the bumpers. Too much to put on and take off but I agree, no bumpers for the first 6 months of life (at the very least).
Wow, faux taxidermy, gilded bamboo, campaign chest, custom chinoiserie bumpers! And not a thought for safety?
Seriously, the argument that "I had two kids who survived bumpers" is a ludicrous one. My parents have two kids who survived being driven around in the car in a bassinet on the back seat* - would you do that too??
As more data is available, safety recommendations change. As bumpers are an identified SIDS risk, I just cannot see why parents would choose pretty bumpers over their child's life. Because that's the risk you're taking.
It upsets me seeing these posts - and so many of these posts - and other people poo-pooing the risks. Do you know anyone who's had a child die? You might take it a bit more seriously if you had.
*This being due to our ages, not irresponsible parenting!
I wonder how many babies died from, say, rocking horse accidents from 1985 to 2005. Not saying I'd use bumper pads, but I get annoyed by major hoopla over the darn things. No one freaks out over large stuffed animals. It'd be so easy for a baby to fall on one or crawl over to one and suffocate because they couldn't move themselves. Just sayin'.
Just curious, but do pediatricians actually warn new moms not to use bumper pads? I think what people are so annoyed about is the ungracious language. Do you really believe that parents make a conscious, willful decision to choose the pretty bumper pad over their child's safety? I remember the days when I thought me, myself, and I alone invented parenting and it makes me a little ashamed. Most people are willing to take a second look at how they do things if they don't feel attacked and if the evidence is compelling.
For crying out loud many times over in the wee hours: let this mom have a moment of glamour because she knows, oh, she knows she'll be sleepless and tired and irritable. So let her have a beautifully adorned nursery, it's so unique!
@Lovelyall "Do you really believe that parents make a conscious, willful decision to choose the pretty bumper pad over their child's safety?

I am more irritated by the fact that this site, aimed at parents, HAS made a willful decision to choose prettiness over concerns for safety. This is the umpteenth debate about cot bumpers on AT. So, the editors here are obviously NOT willing to reconsider in the face of evidence - is the fact that bumpers pose a suffocation risk to newborns not compelling enough? And if it's a case of courting controversy, then that is even more repugnant.
Great light in this room!
That is a really good point pearmelon--thank you!
Beautiful room, and thanks for highlighting a small one! My 3 yr old's room is about the same size (perhaps even a smidge smaller!) and I've wondered what I would have done if we lived there when I was pregnant (he never had a "nursery proper" since he shared my room until we moved about a year ago). I'd love to see what toy storage ideas these folks come up with - as that is the main issue us parents of younger kids have.
As for the bumper issue - I think parent-folk can be so judgmental. Making a comment about the AAP recommendations in the interest of being informative and being a finger pointing critical judge are two totally different things. The last thing you need when you're pregnant and hormonal is someone to judge a decision you've made so harshly. Amanda - do check the AAP's recommendations. Better to be safe than sorry.
So, because AT allows people to share their beautiful rooms, they are promoting bumpers? Or could it be that they are promoting people doing whatever the heck they want and sharing it.
Have you considered that maybe she has a baby movement monitor and maybe also a video monitor? Have you considered that maybe she will want to use them when her baby is like 10 months old and maybe pushes himself into the bars asleep thus waking himself up unnecessarily but she's got a close watch on his breathing and behavior?
Or maybe she wants to save them for when he's 18 months and still in his crib but moving all around and having some cushioning next to the rest of the crib, much like a pillow protects your head from the end of your bed?
Give mom some credit, if she's this resourceful in creating a beautiful room with only 64 sq. ft. and she lives in Boston, she's probably got some brains and can make safety decisions on her own. Do everyone at AT a favor and keep your safety concerns to yourself unless you're talking to a pregnant 16-year-old face to face. Not to mention, if one person has posted about the stupid bumper, why do you think the mom and everyone need to hear your negative thoughts on it too? Let's keep the comments positive and design-related people!
I love this room. I love how she used the diagonal of the brick in her placement of the art. I love that the art is bright and fun and that it will grow with him through the years. Normally, I am not a huge fan of faux taxidermy, but I know how much my son loves them! Kids/babies love animals so much, so I'm sure that is going to be a hit with this baby.
My crib set came with a bumper pad. I agree with the critics that they can be unsafe, but I left mine on and took a bunch of photos of the nursery before my son was born. It stayed on until the day he started sleeping in his crib. I did, however, put it back on to take more photos after we found a rug for the room. I wanted the photos to be of the overall "design" of the room, not how it looks day to day. We don't know what this mom intends to do, and, honestly, it's really none of our business. I don't think any new mom is unaware of the risks, so blasting it on these forums is a little unnecessary (and yes, judgmental!).
And, @pearmelon, am I supposed to think that the campaign chest is somehow not safe? Really people...
I was not berating the parent. My 'judgmental' comment was directed at the author of this piece. Don't you think that a site like this, that promotes products aimed at new parents, should be a little more responsible? Yes, parents should do their utmost to inform themselves about safety, and articles like this one send mixed messages and muddy the waters. I would like to hear what Ms Pavao has to say.
Put a wooden rocking chair in the room and use the bumper pads as cushions on the rocking chair.

Hell, i still prefer the death knight starting zone even now.

Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No, it's a bourbon-swigging bum with three days stubble, superhuman powers and anger management issues.
From Spider-Man to Batman, most unnaturally gifted guardians of what is good and honest acknowledge that with great power comes great responsibility.
Well, Hancock (Smith) has sure got the power…but he ain't responsible in the slightest, creating a car crash out of every crisis and a destruction derby out of every drama.
He's the kind of superhero who flies headfirst into a seagull while gamely hanging onto a bottle of whiskey as he tracks an SUV-full of ne'r do wells along the freeway. And then totals the LAPD's patrol car fleet.
However, his misfortunes change when he rescues decent PR man Jason Bateman (there is such a thing?) from the path of an approaching train…and the grateful would-be victim invites him to dinner.
Taking him under his wing, Bateman's Ray Embrey sets about changing the public perception of Hancock, re-branding him a clean-living law enforcer whose happy to attend AA sessions with the same crimmos he banged up.
But there is a problem. The groomed and counselled Hancock finds himself increasingly drawn to Ray's glamorous wife Mary (Theron) while also becoming the target of Eddie Marsan's crazed one-armed crime lord.
All superheroes go through bad patches, so it's quite an appealing premise to find one public defender for whom life as a career lush is further discoloured by a fractious relationship with the public he is defending.
However, when Hancock steps back onto the straight and narrow the novelty that made his character so grimily appealing wears off, leaving us with yet another superhero gamely battling his demons.
Happily, though, the action sequences are what you might expect from Peter Berg, director of The Kingdom, and Bateman puts in a winning performance as the brightly unsuspecting Ray.
