Perhaps. This is a model at the Glendive Dinosaur & Fossil Museum, in Glendive, MT, which Greg Gianforte funded. The museum puts forward the view that humans and dinosaurs lived at the same time. In this image, a pretty tough-looking prehistoric dude has apparently domesticated a triceratops and is riding it around like a total badass. Another diorama depicts dinosaurs milling around Noah’s Ark. The dinosaurs didn’t make it onto the ark, which explains why they are no longer with us, the poor drowned bastards. http://leevinsel.com/blog/2017/1/20/cfp-for-shot-2017-thinking-with-ann-johnson monthly 0.5 2017-01-20 http://leevinsel.com/blog/2016/8/22/peoples-and-things-an-introduction-to-technology-studies-syllabus monthly 0.5 2016-08-22 http://leevinsel.com/blog/2015/11/30/the-maintainers-a-conference-april-8-2016-stevens-institute-of-technology monthly 0.5 2015-11-30 http://leevinsel.com/blog/2015/11/12/95-theses-on-innovation monthly 0.5 2015-11-12 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/523cd0a3e4b0637224507e69/1447340173845-439JRLIIVL7WVJMQCBAJ/image-asset.png BLOG - 95 Theses on Innovation http://leevinsel.com/blog/2015/11/7/nietzsche-bourgeois-anti-modernist-of-the-second-industrial-revolution monthly 0.5 2015-11-07 http://leevinsel.com/blog/2015/9/25/taylors-world-pt-2-f-w-taylors-expanding-social-networks monthly 0.5 2015-09-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/523cd0a3e4b0637224507e69/1443203654060-IQJBW5PBQRWKZZ81OJFF/image-asset.png BLOG - Taylor's World Pt. 2: F.

Taylor's Expanding Social Networks Amy DiGerolamo created this table using the database of Taylor's correspondence. The dark colored organizations are close to Taylor's roots in mechanical engineering. The light ones are more distant, such as the Historical Society of Pennsylvania. What Amy finds is that Taylor resisted the society at the bottom, which he saw as a withdrawal into a private world of Scientific Managers, rather than influencing others. http://leevinsel.com/blog/2015/9/23/taylors-world-pt-1-training-in-frederick-winslow-taylors-social-networks monthly 0.5 2015-09-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/523cd0a3e4b0637224507e69/1443058948372-Y5WUOB6TVYHQ062E7UFW/image-asset.png BLOG - Taylor's World Pt. 1: Training in Frederick Winslow Taylor's Social Networks https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/523cd0a3e4b0637224507e69/1443059144809-CE38NPERITZM2MXCGYEG/image-asset.png BLOG - Taylor's World Pt. 1: Training in Frederick Winslow Taylor's Social Networks A Diagram of Frederick Winslow Taylor's Social Network as Reflected in His Correspondence, by Daniel Wojciehowski. http://leevinsel.com/blog/2015/9/21/emission-controls-defeat-devices-and-computerization-historical-perspective-on-the-volkswagen-debacle monthly 0.5 2015-09-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/523cd0a3e4b0637224507e69/1442929798003-N8EMEHJP5FXECBPPI2VI/image-asset.png BLOG - Emission Controls, Defeat Devices, and Computerization: The Volkswagen Debacle in Historical Perspective http://leevinsel.com/blog/2015/9/21/why-no-one-at-general-motors-is-going-to-jail-why-maybe-someone-should monthly 0.5 2015-09-21 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/523cd0a3e4b0637224507e69/1442858453572-C94E6E4FV4TVLODF7QDJ/image-asset.png BLOG - Why No One at General Motors is Going to Jail, Why Maybe Someone Should https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/523cd0a3e4b0637224507e69/1442858475550-6HBUXRBBHC91GLMJ0WZ8/image-asset.jpeg BLOG - Why No One at General Motors is Going to Jail, Why Maybe Someone Should http://leevinsel.com/blog/2015/9/16/snake-oil-for-the-innovation-age-christensen-forbes-and-the-problem-of-disruption monthly 0.5 2015-09-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/523cd0a3e4b0637224507e69/1442420294382-4GKWF8ADQPE1PW8ZK3UE/image-asset.jpeg BLOG - Snake Oil for the Innovation Age: Christensen, Forbes, and the Problem with Disruption http://leevinsel.com/blog/2015/9/9/an-open-letter-to-george-johnson monthly 0.5 2015-09-09 http://leevinsel.com/blog/2015/2/25/the-maintainers-a-call-for-proposals monthly 0.5 2015-02-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/523cd0a3e4b0637224507e69/1424869673110-RNRXOD9IMUZFR577SH6S/image-asset.jpeg BLOG - The Maintainers: A Call for Proposals http://leevinsel.com/blog/2014/12/4/hitting-dogs-with-hammers-auto-safety-animal-experiments-and-benjamins-angel-of-history monthly 0.5 2014-12-06 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/523cd0a3e4b0637224507e69/1417746863540-MNP5JP8ILEX08J588GUK/image-asset.png BLOG - Hitting Dogs with Hammers: Animals, Auto Safety, and the Angel of History A (living) dog's skull prepared with strain gages and "pressure plugs" for a study of concussion at Wayne State University.

Of course, multiple impacts are sometimes an issue for humans, including when they box or play football. To explore this issue, researchers hit drugged dogs over the head with a hammer once every half an hour. In the experiment pictured here, the dog was struck thirteen times. In other words, the experiment lasted at least 6.5 hours. Then the dog died. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/523cd0a3e4b0637224507e69/1417747316235-5ER2DAABGX70E0BJEYPF/image-asset.png BLOG - Hitting Dogs with Hammers: Animals, Auto Safety, and the Angel of History The Wayne State Accelerator was an elevator shaft with the elevator removed.

Moreover, the Belgian hare, if properly positioned, is capable of sitting erect." So, they decided to use rabbits in a study of "whiplash." As the Tulane researchers noted, "The original objective in this experiment was to produce injuries sufficiently severe to cause death and possibly decapitation in the test animals." Yet, this goal proved difficult. When the first test instrument proved insufficient for the challenge, the researchers went through a Goldilocks-like process of designing more and more severe testing equipment, three or four in all, trying to find one that was "just right." But the researchers never obtained their objective. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/523cd0a3e4b0637224507e69/1417748037804-YSTYNXWHN8ZDEQ04MCBG/image-asset.png BLOG - Hitting Dogs with Hammers: Animals, Auto Safety, and the Angel of History A rabbit undergoing a "whiplash" simulation at Tulane. In their article based on these studies, the Tulane researchers concluded, probably unhelpfully, "The historical premise that the neck of the rabbit is fragile appears to be in error." https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/523cd0a3e4b0637224507e69/1417748094087-2YGM8NPQD2SEO0ZVIF5J/image-asset.png BLOG - Hitting Dogs with Hammers: Animals, Auto Safety, and the Angel of History The Wayne Curve, a graphical representation that aggregated studies on human cadavers and living non-human animals (dogs), which came to depict the amount of force that the average human being could withstand.

Because researchers were not able to find enough pregnant baboons for their study, researchers implanted, in three non-pregnant baboons, a "simulated uterus," which "consisted of a rubber balloon enclosed in nylon netting and [containing] a transducer to measure pressure changes during acceleration." The researchers then put the baboons through series of decelerations, which were meant to mimic the experience of a "typical passenger in a hypothetical Boeing 720 type airliner crashing on takeoff."
