An Illustrated History of Dinosaurs - Duration: 12:20.
No other animals from the deep past capture our imaginations like dinosaurs.
Any kid old enough to hold a crayon can probably draw one.
And we older kids have our own images that come to mind when we think of the terrible
lizards.
But the reason that we have to imagine the non-avian dinosaurs, of course, is that they're
extinct.
Thankfully, a ton of science has gone into our understanding of how dinosaurs looked,
and acted.
But the truth is, we've only had a few hundred years to bring that picture into focus.
So if you page through a book about natural history, or stroll through a museum hall,
you'll get some idea of what paleontologists think dinosaurs looked like.
But even the most up-to-date restorations of our prehistoric favorites are only part
of the story.
Because our image of dinosaurs has been constantly changing -- evolving, you might say -- ever
since naturalists started studying them about 350 years ago.
And this evolution is reflected in hundreds of years' worth of drawings, paintings,
and models of dinosaurs, each made in an attempt to get us a little closer to visualizing animals
that have been lost to time.
Taken together, these pictures can tell us a whole lot about just how much we've learned
in just a short three and a half centuries.
So today, we're going to explore the history of dinosaur science, as seen through the history
of dinosaur art.
When naturalists first started to find dinosaur bones, they didn't quite know what to make
of them … as you can tell from the very first illustration of a dino fossil ever published.
Back in 1677 -- more than 160 years before the word "dinosaur" was even coined -- an
English chemist named Robert Plot published his Natural History of Oxfordshire, a catalog
of rocks, minerals and fossils from his home county.
And it included a drawing of a strange bone that had been found in a limestone quarry.
Plot could tell that it was the end of a femur, or a thigh bone.
But it was clearly from an animal far larger than any living in England at that time.
He suggested that the thigh fragment might have belonged to a Roman war elephant, or
maybe even a giant human.
But it turned out that, in his book, Plot had given the world the very first scientific
illustration of a dinosaur fossil.
In 1763, English naturalist Richard Brookes re-printed Plot's illustration, in a six-volume
set he called A System of Natural History.
And Brookes bestowed a name on the fossil.
In a caption of Plot's picture, he called the specimen Scrotum humanum.
Because...really?
Because although he knew it was a piece of a femur, he thought it looked like … a pair
of human testicles.
Paleontologists now know that bone belonged to Megalosaurus, a dinosaur named by WIlliam
Buckland in 1824.
Working from some more and better material -- including a lower jaw and teeth -- Buckland
was able to tell that this animal was a previously-unknown kind of carnivorous reptile.
To Buckland's mind, the creature looked not like a giant, or an even elephant, but like
a crocodile -- although, one about the size of a bus.
And from this time we still have a lithograph of the crucial fossil -- the one that established
Megalosaurus as a new, fierce form of ancient life.
From these rather inauspicious beginnings -- cases of mistaken identity involving war
elephants and human genitals -- the idea started to sink in that dinosaurs were something truly
special -- specifically, a kind of reptile that used to exist, but didn't any more.
But, in the early 1800s, scientists still pictured dinosaurs as being much like the
modern reptiles they knew.
The English physician Gideon Mantell, for example, figured that if dinosaurs were reptiles,
then they must've basically been just giant lizards.
Based on some fossil teeth that he found in Sussex, Mantell was convinced that he had
found the prehistoric equivalent of an iguana -- albeit one about 30 meters long.
He made a sketch of the creature's skeleton in his personal notes, following the same
skeletal plan of the modern lizard.
And in 1825 he officially gave the animal the name Iguanodon, or "iguana tooth."
A few years later, Mantell was visited by artist John Martin.
Martin was famous for his paintings of dramatic, apocalyptic scenes, like his 1822 painting,
The Destruction of Pompeii.
And after meeting Mantell, Martin used his vision of the Iguanodon to create the first
-- and maybe the most over-the-top -- scene of dinosaur combat ever committed to canvas.
This painting, The Country of the Iguanodon is all coils and teeth and claws.
It's all very…
Rawr.
And at the time, it summed up what experts thought ancient reptiles were like: Giant,
vicious lizards who hissed and snapped at each other.
But all that was about to change.
British anatomist Richard Owen proposed that Megalosaurus, Iguanodon, and another newly
discovered animal, called Hylaeosaurus, all shared special physical traits -- found in
their hips and other bones -- that made them different from all other reptiles.
And in 1842, he came up with a new name for this form of extinct life: "dinosaur,"
from the Greek for "terrible lizard."
But Owen went even further than that.
Dinosaurs weren't just supersized lizards, he said.
In many ways, they resembled mammals in their structure and their stance.
And Owen portrayed his vision of dinosaurs not on paper, or canvas, but in three
dimensions!
For England's Great Exhibition of 1854, Owen worked with artist Benjamin Waterhouse
Hawkins to create life-sized versions of dinosaurs and other ancient creatures, as he pictured
them.
The models were so immense that Hawkins even famously held a New Years' banquet inside
a model of Iguanodon!
And when the models were unveiled to the public, they became the new image of what we thought
dinosaurs looked like.
These animals were built more like rhinos, carrying their legs under their bodies, but
with scaly skin and tails that dragged on the ground behind them.
And it was other new insights into dinosaurs' legs that led to the next big shift in how
we imagined the animals.
Most of the earliest dinosaur fossils were found in Europe and were extremely fragmented.
Sometimes it was hard to tell which parts went with which.
But when naturalists started looking in North America, they found more complete skeletons
that made paleontologists completely re-think dinosaurs.
A pair of critical finds were made in New Jersey.
In 1858, a farmer found the bones of an animal we now call Hadrosaurus.
The skeleton wasn't complete, but there were enough parts of the arms, legs, and tail
to know that the forelimbs of this dinosaur were shorter than the hindlimbs.
Benjamin Waterhouse Hawkins was called in again to reconstruct the dinosaur's skeleton
for the public in Philadelphia, the first one to be put on display anywhere.
And what was weird about this model was that ... it stood on two legs!
The discovery of a carnivorous dinosaur also in New Jersey, eventually named Dryptosaurus,
showed that it was bipedal, too.
And its discoverer, the notoriously cranky American paleontologist Edward Drinker Cope,
drew the dinosaur in a crouched, kangaroo-like pose, totally different from Owen's Megalosaurus.
Better finds only added fuel to this revolution in how we pictured dinosaurs.
The discovery of a whole herd of Iguanodon in a Belgian coal mine in 1878, including
complete skeletons, confirmed that those dinosaurs had short arms and long legs, suggesting that
they were also largely bipedal
And the discovery of entirely new genera, like Stegosaurus, Brontosaurus, and Triceratops,
showed that dinosaurs were stranger and more diverse than anything paleontologists
expected.
Bone by bone and skeleton by skeleton, a new image of dinosaurs started to take hold.
Even though they were still classified as reptiles, by late 19th century, they were
seen as acting more like mammals or birds than like lizards.
An important painting from 1896 drives this point home.
Charles R. Knight, working for the American Museum of Natural History, illustrated a moment
of vicious combat between two snarling Dryptosaurus.
These weren't Martin's dragon-like lizards, or Owen's rhino-like reptiles.
Instead, they were agile, bird-like dinosaurs unlike anything we'd seen before.
Then, at the start of the 20th century, the scientific opinion on dinosaurs shifted yet
again.
By this point, dinosaurs were seen as big and weird and scary -- great for drawing museum
crowds! -- but their reputation was starting to tarnish.
If dinosaurs were so great, some paleontologists wondered, then why'd they go extinct?
Instead of being awe-inspiring, dinos came to be seen as inferior, an evolutionary failure.
And this attitude was reflected in the paleo-art of the time, which depicted dinosaurs as slow,
lumbering beasts -- usually stuck in some swamp.
Don't get me wrong,
the artists of this time depicted these scenes beautifully.
Artists like Knight, Zdeněk Burian, and Rudolph Zallinger created some of the most iconic
and detailed dinosaur art of all time.
They filled books and museums with their work, and you can still see many of their murals
on display at places like the Field Museum and the Yale Peabody Museum of Natural History.
It's just that, their generation saw dinosaurs as tubby, dimwitted losers in the evolutionary
game of life.
By the late 1960s, though, new finds had experts questioning what they thought they knew about
dinosaurs.
The key here was the discovery of Deinonychus- the inspiration for Jurassic Park's tenacious
"raptors" - by American paleontologist John Ostrom in 1969.
This small carnivore had a stiff, counterbalancing tail, and a wicked, sickle-shaped, "killing
claw" on each of its feet.
It was impossible to envision this thing as a sluggish, dumb reptile.
It was nimble and dynamic, even … one might say...birdlike.
This revelation sparked what came to be known as the Dinosaur Renaissance of the 1970s and
80s.
It opened up old debates and sparked new ones, transforming what we thought dinosaurs were
like.
And paleoart went along for the ride!
What paleontologists were doing in labs and museums, illustrators like Greg Paul, Ely
Kish, Douglas Henderson, and more were doing with their sketches and paintings.
In the work of these artists, dinosaurs' tails were lifted off the ground, their postures
were adjusted, and they were shown running, jumping, clawing, and biting with greater
vigor than ever before.
And of course, as with anything that evolves, our image of dinosaurs hasn't stopped changing.
These days, paleontologists are finding more dinosaurs than ever.
In fact, a new species is now being named, on average, every two weeks!
But more importantly, we're learning a lot more about dinosaur biology, like their anatomy
and physiology.
In addition to fossil bones, researchers are now studying things like skin impressions,
feathers, and other soft tissues -- giving us a fuller picture of not only how these
animals looked, but how they moved and what they could, and couldn't, do.
In particular, the discovery of dozens of dinosaurs with feathers and fuzz has totally
changed how we see some of our favorites.
And recent paleo-artwork has reflected these changes.
Artists like Julius Csotonyi, Gabriel Ugueto, Nobu Tamura and Emily Willoughby are incorporating
the latest insights from the field, and they're also using new technology, like 3D scans,
to re-create dinos in more detail than ever.
Where paleoartists of old worked with paint and lithographs, many modern artists have
gone digital, rendering new visions of prehistoric life as soon as they're announced.
What really sets these modern paleoartists apart is how they draw on the traditions of
previous generations, while also challenging the tropes and ideas that came before.
Paleoart is now in its great Experimental Phase, reflecting what we expect dinosaurs
were like, while also speculating about what we don't yet know.
But the lesson here isn't that modern paleoart is right, while earlier editions were wrong.
The art of dinosaurs is always a reflection of the time it's made in.
Just as dinosaurs themselves evolved, so have our thoughts about their lives.
Paleoart is a living document of these alterations.
We've come a long way from the days when we thought the fossils of dinosaurs represented
a race of giants, or big lizards, or bulky pseudo-mammals.
And a hundred years from now, natural historians may look back on the illustrations we use
today and marvel at just how wrong we were.
Thankfully, the more science reveals to us about the nature of the non-avian dinos,
the closer we get to representing the truth in our illustrations.
But as long as dinosaurs remain extinct, there might always be a little part of them that
we'll just have to imagine for ourselves.

What Is Kill Newsfeed For Facebook - Duration: 4:31.
hey guys what's up I'm coming on here today because I want to share an app
that I use through Google Chrome called kill newsfeed and it does exactly what
it says it's gonna kill your newsfeed on Facebook so that you're not distracted
with a whole lot of political posts or things that you just don't want to hear
about or it will just ultimately stop you from wasting all of your time on
Facebook so what we're gonna do is we're going to open up Chrome and as you can
see I already have Facebook pulled up and you can see that there are things in
my newsfeed so what we're going to do is we're gonna open a new tab and we're
going to go to my apps and we're gonna go to the webstore and we're gonna do a
search for a kill news feed and what we're gonna do is we're going to
download this very top one where it says kill news feed and we're gonna add to
Chrome and we're gonna add the extension now a kill news feed has been added to
Chrome so what we're going to do is we're gonna go back to Facebook and
we're just going to refresh the page and as you can see I have nothing here I
can't do anything but I can update hi everyone kissy-face and we're going to
post that to public now that post I can still get notification so if any
notifications come up I'll be notified here and I can comment back on things
that I've already come in it well I know on groups or pages or other people's
posts or my own post so you can still be productive with what you need to be
productive on now the other thing you can do is you can still go to your
groups so you can go through here and let's say what else can we do we're
gonna go back to the homepage we can also go through the pages feed and that
still comes up so that's awesome so we have access to the pages the groups and
we also have access to our own groups or our own pages that we may have we just
don't have all that noise that comes from Facebook throughout the day now
this can be a benefit if you work from home or you even work from the office
and you need to access Facebook you can kind of kill all that time sucking type
of things that we get sucked into throughout the day but you can still
access things that you need to access so that's excellent you can even enter in
names of certain people and pull up their their posts if you need to do that
but it's just not going to when you first go on to it it's not gonna pop up
with all the craziness that you know we get from Facebook sometimes now the only
bad thing that I can say with the kill newsfeed app is that to turn it on and
to turn it off it's a little bit of a process but it's not too bad so what
we're gonna do is we're gonna go over here to the dots and we're gonna go to
more tools and we're gonna go to extensions and when we go to the
extensions we're just gonna scroll down to kill newsfeed and we're just going to
disable it it's that simple and you can go right back in the same way and enable
it and then we can go back to Facebook we can refresh it and it'll give us our
screen again so that's excellent alright so I wanted to show that to you guys I

Mindhunter / Jigsaw – misc. - Duration: 6:57.
Welcome everyone! This is misc. This is the show I do each and every Monday
where I talk about the stuff that I have been listening to, reading, watching, or
just experiencing over the last week. My name is Kyle. Welcome! This week I want to
discuss Mindhunter. This is the new Netflix show that is executive
produced by David Fincher. It's also executive produced by Charlize
Theron, but the first two episodes were also directed by David Fincher. And I
want to sink my teeth into this cuz it's all I've been thinking about over the last
couple of days. Before we do that though, what we need to do collectively as a
group –hopefully you can trust me – we're all gonna jump into my little time
machine, and go all the way back to the early 2000s. To when the movie Zodiac
came out. This is a movie I feel does not get it's just due. It is also about
serial killers. It was also directed by David Fincher, and I think Mindhunter
has a lot of inspiration from that movie. That movie specifically had Jake
Gyllenhaal and a bunch of other famous people in it. Like Robert Downey Jr. and
the guy who plays the Hulk. Mark something... I've completely forgotten
his last name currently. It'll probably come back to me
later on in this video, perhaps. What is so
interesting about it is it's delving into the history of the Zodiac killer,
without necessarily coming out and saying who the Zodiac killer was.
Because there still is not the consensus on that. And what it's so brilliantly
able to do is that it takes very insignificant moments and makes them so
tension-filled. Specifically there's this one thing where they are visiting this
home, and they're just in the basement of the home. And the way that the sound
designers and the way that David Fincher uses the camera you think and you expect
some awful thing to happen, and it never does. Yet you feel better about
that, but at the same time you're just so wracked
with anxiety that they're our main heroes, they're gonna go get murdered
that you're just on the edge of your seat the entire time. It also very
plainly shows these awful things happening, in a very matter-of-fact way.
And that in and of itself makes it all the more terrifying, and that aspect
specifically is what I want to talk about Mindhunter with. Because at least
in the first three episodes we are seeing our protagonists, these people who work
for the FBI, who – and this is apparently based on a real story – but they are
trying to figure out how serial killers work. And are essentially writing the
book on serial killers. They have no one else, and no other resources to to help
them out. So they are the ones calling together all these different stories,
trying to make a pathology out of them, and trying to use this information to
help the FBI, and other police agencies. And so they are going and interviewing all
of these serial killers that they can find, in and around California. And what's
terrifying about it is that you are having these conversations with people who
are just very nonchalantly talking about doing just awful things: like murder,
and beheadings, and just really sexually depraved acts on corpses, and the
terror and the horror comes from these people not really showing any
remorse. It's like, "yeah I went and grabbed a cup of coffee and I drank it
and then I went back to work." That's how they're explaining these terrible things
and that to me is a terrifying thing. To be able to be in a room of
somebody who doesn't seem to understand that these are horrible things. I'm
excited to see where the show goes to. I think that the real main character –
again who's played by a guy who I just forgot his name of – but he was in Glee,
he's been on Broadway a bunch of times. He's the right fit and he's the right
pick for a person who is, like, plucky and wants to discover all these answers but
is a little bit naive himself. And so he's our lcipher into this world
of depravity, and plays it really well, because all
this stuff that he's learning is new to him and also new to us as the audience.
Or possibly new to us. I want to contrast this a little bit because I just saw the
Jigsaw film, and I mentioned last week how I just watched all of the Saw
films in a row. So I went and saw the new Jigsaw film, and I'm not gonna belabor
the point, cuz if you saw last week's video I'm basically saying the same
thing. This is a return to the Saw franchise. Tobin Bell is coming back as
the Jigsaw character, and my feelings are kind of the same as I felt with the last
half of the Saw franchise. Where this is really just gratuitous violence for
gratuitous violence sake, I don't feel as if it's adding anything really
interesting or new to the franchise. I feel that it is not really delving into
what makes the Saw franchise interesting in and of itself. The Jigsaw character is
interesting because he lets people have choices, he lets people decide if they're
gonna live or die. And in this one because – spoiler alert – Jigsaw has
been dead for so many years, we're kind of left again with this regular serial killer
who's just killing people in elaborate death traps. And I just don't really find
that interesting. There are some, again, cool bits here and there and I'm just –
like with every film – they pull the rug out from underneath you at the very end,
and show you what was really going on, but I just wish the series would somehow
be able to return back to that essential question of giving people a choice,
versus basic human decency. Like allowing them to really struggle with that. If
we work together we would survive, but by myself I fail. I need help from
others and this doesn't seem that it's interested in exploring that any further.
Anyways, those are my thoughts. I think what's more important though is what you
think. So down in the comments below, if you've seen Mindhunter, if you saw the
new Jigsaw film, let me know what your thoughts were down in the comments below.
Or, what you think I should be watching, or reading,
experiencing, in this upcoming week. So until next Monday my name is Kyle. I'm
sure we'll see each other again,
