SUMMARY:Film Screening:T.REX
DESCRIPTION:With stunning CGI visuals and the latest research from leading paleontologists\, the film offers audiences a fresh perspective on the GOAT (Greatest Of All Tyrants): Tyrannosaurus rex. Anchored by the true story of the young fossil hunters who made the discovery of a lifetime when they spotted a large fossilized leg bone on a walk on public lands in North Dakota\, T. REX intercuts the remarkable fossil dig\, with cutting edge computer graphics that bring the iconic T. rex to life—from hatchling to hulking adult. Narrated by Jurassic Park actor Sam Neill\, T.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Shining Light on a Statistical Dark Age: Postal Activity in Antebellum America
DESCRIPTION:American economic historians generally believe US modern economic growth began before 1840\, was broadly based (not driven by a single activity such as cotton cultivation or the railroad)\, and the acceleration was gradual (rather than a sudden takeoff). These claims are treated as conjectures rather than solid conclusions because the census did not publish good economic data before 1840. But the earlier period was not a \"statistical dark age\,\" as sometimes asserted. From 1817 on\, systematic statistics on postal activity are available at the local level at high frequencies. This paper assembles these data and asks what we can learn.
