Scientists find oldest-known fossilized digestive tract
At 550 million years
A 550 million-year-old fossilized digestive tract found in the Nevada desert could be a key find in understanding the early history of animals on Earth.
Over a half-billion years ago, life on Earth was comprised of simple ocean organisms unlike anything living in today's oceans. Then, beginning about 540 million years ago, animal structures changed dramatically.
During this time, ancestors of many animal groups we know today appeared, such as primitive crustaceans and worms, yet for years scientists did not know how these two seemingly unrelated communities of animals were connected, until now.
An analysis of tubular fossils by scientists led by Jim Schiffbauer at the University of Missouri provides evidence of a 550 million-year-old digestive tract — one of the oldest known examples of fossilized internal anatomical structures — and reveals what scientists believe is a possible answer to the question of how these animals are connected.
"Not only are these structures the oldest guts yet discovered, but they also help to resolve the long-debated evolutionary positioning of this important fossil group," said Schiffbauer, an associate professor of geological sciences in the MU College of Arts and Science and director of the X-ray Microanalysis Core facility.
"These fossils fit within a very recognizable group of organisms — the cloudinids — that scientists use to identify the last 10 to 15 million years of the Ediacaran Period, or the period of time just before the Cambrian Explosion. We can now say that their anatomical structure appears much more worm-like than coral-like."
The Cambrian Explosion is widely considered by scientists to be the point in history of life on Earth when the ancestors of many animal groups we know today emerged.
In the study, the scientists used MU's X-ray Microanalysis Core facility to take a unique analytical approach for geological science — micro-CT imaging — that created a digital 3D image of the fossil. This technique allowed the scientists to view what was inside the fossil structure.
"With CT imaging, we can quickly assess key internal features and then analyze the entire fossil without potentially damaging it," said co-author Tara Selly, a research assistant professor in the Department of Geological Sciences and assistant director of the X-ray Microanalysis Core facility.
The study was published in Nature Communications.

The Ceylon Students' Association in London worked closely with the Majlis and the India League. It was very active in the 1920s. D. B. Jayatilleke and S. A. Wickremasinghe worked with Krishna Menon and Shapurji Saklatvala. They wrote the Study of the Report on Constitution together in 1928, on their responses to British constitutional reforms with particular reference to Ceylon's Donoughmore Constitution. Many of its members were Sinhala-speaking socialist students from Buddhist Theosophist Schools who came to Britain for undergraduate or postgraduate study at the University of London. Its members went on to found the Marxist Lanka Sama Samaja Party in Sri Lanka in 1935. This London group opposed both A. E. Goonesinghe and the British Labour Party's claims that the Ceylon National Congress were oligarchs, arguing that they preferred indigenous oligarchs to foreign rule. The Ceylon Students' Association along with the Pan-African Federation, WASU, the Federation of Indian Associations in Britain and the Burma Association, organized the Anti-Colonial Peoples' Conference in June 1945, which called for an end to imperialism.

He turns in on himself, he rewards himself.
The pleasure is real. Real, too, the chewing and swallowing.
But the reality is of no interest in itself; it is there only to lend a body to the desperate efforts of appropriation. The important thing is to use these real facts as symbols.
The legitimate owner puts out his hand, picks up a piece of fruit and eats it peacefully. Genet transfers to himself the owner's gesture and sensations so as to identify himself with the latter by an effort of mind. He takes in order to convince himself that he has the right to take; he eats as an actor eats on the stage; he is playing at possession; he embodies the owner as Barrault embodies Hamlet. However, he makes, at the same time, a considerable effort to be his own audience so as to catch himself in the act of possessing. Need I say that he is always about to succeed but never does? It doesn't matter. He already finds within himself what the Marquis de Sade called the "principle of delicacy," which makes him prefer nothingness to being, imagination to reality, tension to enjoyment.
it is the systematic pursuit of the impossible. No wonder that he wrote later that "the land of the Chimeras is the only one worth inhabiting" and that he quoted the following line from Pope: "Nothing is beautiful, save that which is not."
But what appears with the first thefts is not only that straining of soul toward something beyond the true which will henceforth characterize Genet's inner tempo, but also the particular nature of his poetic procedure. He never dreams. He does not turn away from the world in order to invent better worlds, he does not abandon himself to images, to musings. His imagination is a corrosive operation that is practiced on the real, an operation aimed not at evading but at transcending reality, and, as we have seen, at dematerializing it.
Other children would have played at ownership with imaginary belongings. A pebble would have been a gold piece. They would have made believe they were buying or eating. But our little thief wants to eat "for real," wants to have real pleasure in his mouth. Only, this real pleasure is neither wanted nor felt for its own sake; it is in the service of an impossible attempt to coincide, in the realm of the imaginary, with the essence of an owner of things. As a result, the whole system is derealized, the very enjoyment becomes imaginary. The true pleasure of a thief becomes a fictitious pleasure of a fake owner. Reality is worn so thin that one can see the light through it.

We all know in the dog days of summer maintaining a full face of makeup is next to impossible. Five minutes out the door and eye shadow is creasing, mascara is running, and that flawless contour you applied is melting. With so many exciting outdoor plans to attend worrying about your makeup staying put is something you just don't have time for. Cut your beauty routine in half with lash extensions and top it off with a fresh summer manicure to feel polished wherever your summer takes you. Celebrity beauty guru and owner of As U Wish Nail Spa Skyy Hadley, shares her tips on how to maintain both lash extensions and manicures.
Allow your lashes 24 to 48 hours of setting time before getting them wet. Moisture from showers or intense workouts could reactivate the adhesive and make your lashes clump.
Avoid touching the extensions as much as possible. Lashes shed naturally on their own, buy by touching or tugging on extensions it could make them fall out faster.
Maintain your lashes by making sure your natural ones are healthy. Apply lash conditioner, baby oil, or lash lengthening serum to make sure your extensions have a strong base.
Consult your calendar. Do you plan on attending any weddings or taking that girls trip to Vegas? Opt for a more full and dramatic lash extension look that says glam but is secretly time saving. Just want to shorten your time in front of the mirror and feel more confident? A less dramatic look is easier to maintain and still looks stunning.
Remove your polish and let your nails breathe for a good few days. If nails look discolored, squeeze some lemon into your lotion or rub lemon wedge directly onto nail to brighten nails.
Apply a cuticle oil to the base of your nails (or even when they are already polished), focusing around the cuticle area to hydrate and bring moisture into the skin, helping the polish last longer.
Whether you are spending your summer at the pool or sipping cocktails on rooftop bars your makeup and nails should be the last thing on your mind.
What tips and tricks do you have for cutting your beauty routine in half?

Forget Philippe Coutinho – Manchester United would be better off targeting any of these three players instead and here is why
Siddhant Lazar
Three players Manchester United can target instead of Philippe Coutinho
Fox Sports has reported that Manchester United are set to make a move for FC Barcelona superstar Philippe Coutinho with an offer of around £178 million. However, that deal is never going to happen, given the fact that Barcelona chased Liverpool for six months before the Reds finally gave in.
Considering their links to multiple other stars from around the world, Manchester United should just make a move for someone else. That said, here are three players the Red Devils can target instead of Coutinho.
#3 Isco Alarcon
Isco might be struggling and unhappy but he is still a world-class attacking midfielder for both Real Madrid and Spain. Now with the transfer window open, Isco has two choices – either move on or fight for a place at the Santiago Bernabeu. Things could get complicated since the likes of Arsenal (h/t The Mirror), Manchester United (h/t Daily Express), Juventus (h/t Calciomercato) and even PSG (h/t Marca) after him.
The question, however, is despite all of Isco's talent, can and will the 26-year-old flourish in a physically tougher Premier League? It takes no prisoners and as Mesut Ozil, Angel Di Maria and many others have realized, it's a tough place to play in.
But then again, the Spaniard is a game-changing star to have, with the ability to influence and change the course of a game single-handedly.
#2 Nabil Fekir
He finished last season with 21 goals and a further 7 assists and yet Liverpool hesitated to make a £53million move (via the Telegraph) for Nabil Fekir. This season, despite being dropped for 7 games, Fekir has still contributed to 11 goals in 17 appearances which include five in the Champions League.
His abilities on the ball and eye for goal is incredible but it's his injury issues that may stop any suitors in the near future. But if Fekir manages to stay fit and keeps doing what he does best, it's only time before he makes a big money move elsewhere with Lyon struggling to keep their best stars.
With that in mind, why shouldn't Manchester United jump in the race for the Frenchman? After all, he would be much cheaper than Coutinho.
#1 Paulo Dybala
There won't be anyone else topping this list as long as Paulo Dybala is still at Juventus proving himself. While he has struggled this season in the Serie A, Dybala's performances in the Champions League has shown that he's second to only a few players in the world. Even more so after he showcased what he could do the last term, finishing the season with 26 goals and 7 assists in all competitions.

Now with Barcelona (h/t Calciomercato) re-igniting their interest in the 25-year-old and Manchester City (h/t Sky Sports) also interested in Paulo Dybala's signature, things could get interesting. However, if Manchester United want a world-class attacking midfielder/second striker, there are few players better than Paulo Dybala.

Forget it Pellegrini – West Ham would commit a massive blunder by signing this £10m Italian winger and here is why
Transfer blunder waiting to happen? Emery must avoid bringing this £63m Colombian sensation to Arsenal while he still has Ozil
Arsenal plotting an audacious swoop to sign this 27-year-old Real Madrid dynamo would solve Emery's wing woes
Arsenal Opinion: Why the Gunners should make a move for Lucas Vazquez
According to a report from Spanish news outlet Mundo Deportivo, Arsenal are interested in signing Real Madrid winger Lucas Vazquez.
Zinedine Zidane is expected to swing the axe after a dismal 2018/19 campaign at the Santiago Bernabeu, with some players expected to be sold after a rare trophy-less campaign for the Spanish heavyweights. But Lucas Vazquez is one player Zidane will be desperate to keep hold of.
The report claim Arsenal aren't the only club interested in the Spanish international. Liverpool are also in the running for the winger, who managed 47 appearances across all competitions last season, bagging five goals and four assists.
Arsenal were ever so close to returning to the Champions League but some really poor performances during the business end of the campaign coupled with the chastening defeat at the hands of Chelsea in the Europa League final in Baku ruined their chances of a return to Europe's most elite competition. Unai Emery faces a big summer transfer window ahead of him and he'll have to recruit smartly from the limited funds allocated to him.
The Gunners desperately need a couple of wide players, with Mesut Ozil and Henrikh Mkhitaryan being deployed there at times despite not being natural wingers. And as expected, they haven't delivered the goods, while the team's only natural wide-man in Alex Iwobi has blown hot and cold. Thus, Emery has to solve the issue ahead of the new campaign and a player like Lucas Vazquez would fit the bill perfectly at the Emirates.
A right-winger by trade, Vazquez also operates as a right-back and right wing-back at Madrid when required, which shows his versatility. The 27-year-old has pace and energy in abundance that allows him to beat his marker. He is also a decent dribbler and is an excellent outlet to have during counter-attacking threats.
The Spaniard may not be the most technically gifted player but his commitment, energy, desire and work ethic are second to none. Vazquez's work-rate and versatility will definitely be pleasing to Unai Emery and his ability to have a real impact in the forward areas of the pitch will bolster the Gunners' chances of challenging the likes of Manchester City and Liverpool for the Premier League title.
Not to forget, Vazquez has also won three Champions League titles with Madrid. So, his experience and winning attitude in the Arsenal dressing room would come handy.
Vazquez would be an excellent addition to the Arsenal side that has been over-reliant on the services of their two centre-forwards.

West Ham would strike gold by reviving interest in this 26-year-old La Liga ace – only if Issa Diop chooses to exit
West Ham Opinion: Why the Hammers should go for Ibrahim Amadou?
According to a report from The Telegraph, West Ham have rejected a £45million from Manchester United for their defender Issa Diop.
Manchester United are desperate to add a centre-back to their team this summer and Diop is the latest player they have been linked to.
The French defender had a great first season in the Premier League with West Ham and has caught the attention of United, who are rebuilding their squad under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer after a disappointing sixth-placed finish last season.
The Hammers don't want to sell Diop, who arrived at the London stadium from Toulouse last summer, and are demanding £75million to ward off the Red Devils' interest, the report adds. However, given United's absolute necessity to sign a central defender, there is a chance of them forking out such a huge amount to prise the defender away to Old Trafford.
Hence, Manuel Pellegrini would be wise to start plotting potential replacements for Diop, who is understood to be close to a call-up to the France squad. Given the current situation, West Ham should reignite their interest in Sevilla defender Ibrahim Amadou.
Back in January 2018, the Birmingham Mail reported that West Ham were interested in signing Ibrahim Amadou, who was then plying his trade for LOSC Lille. But a move didn't materialise then and Amadou went onto join Sevilla last summer.
The French defender, 26, had an injury-hit debut campaign with Sevilla where he managed just 17 appearances in the La Liga. In all, he made 32 appearances and scored a goal. Amadou was mostly used in his preferred position—defensive midfield—but he is also adept at playing in central defence.
The 26-year-old is a versatile player, who is strong, powerful and aerially excellent with good technical abilities. A robust, hard-working and tenacious customer on the pitch, Amadou has the ability to control the game with his good range of passing and game-reading when deployed in the holding midfielder's role.
As a centre-back, he uses his no-nonsense approach to keep things tight, which makes him a good fit for either role.

West Ham have already signed three players so far this summer as Pellegrini looks to break into the top six next season. And with Diop on the radar of Manchester United, the Hammers must think of potentially replacing him with Amadou.
The addition of an experienced and dynamic defender like Amadou, who can add a little bit of freshness to the backline, could be exactly what Pellegrini's side needs this summer.
23 goals, 17 assists – Here's why Man Utd must rekindle interest in this 27-year-old ace with €18m release clause
Manchester United Opinion: Why Man United must go for Pablo Sarabia?
Manchester United's rebuild under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is finally up and running, as the club completed the signing of Wales winger Daniel James from Swansea City on Wednesday.
James, 21, signed a five-year contract at Old Trafford, with the option to extend by a further year, to become manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's first signing in charge of the Red Devils.
The Reds' disappointing sixth-placed finish last season has now led to a renewed desire to improve the squad in certain areas, as they finished a massive 31 and 32 points behind top two Liverpool and Manchester City respectively. It will take a lot of spending from United to catch up with either of their rivals.
Scoring goals became a big problem in the final stages of the 2018/19 campaign and apparently was one of the reasons why United couldn't qualify for the Champions League when they had every chance to do so. The likes of Marcus Rashford, Anthony Martial and Romelu Lukaku struggled to pierce well-drilled defences, while Solskjaer lacked a 'Plan B' from the bench.
Jesse Lingard and Juan Mata weren't effective and Alexis Sanchez continued to be a shadow of his former self. Regardless of signing James, the Red Devils still need more firepower up front and an out-and-out right winger is the need of the hour.
Last year, the Express claimed United were interested in Sevilla star Pablo Sarabia. However, a deal didn't materialise but the Premier League giants must reignite their interest in the wide playmaker and sign him this summer.
Pablo Sarabia, 27, enjoyed a fantastic season with Sevilla as he bagged 23 goals and 17 assists in 52 games across all competitions. However, he is out of contract next summer and could be cashed in during this transfer window. Given his form and cheap release clause, €18 million, United must quickly sign him from the Spanish outfit.
In Sarabia, Solskjaer would get a player who has many qualities including his ability to create chances from open play and set pieces. Roaming in between the lines within the attacking third, he is good with the ball at his feet and playing his way out of tight spaces. From the right, the Spaniard likes to cut inside on his stronger left foot and unleash ferocious shots towards goal.
Playing centrally or on the right side of his team's attack, he has proven himself as a fleet-footed dribbler who can work himself into dangerous areas before creating threatening opportunities for his team. Sarabia is a natural finisher in front of goal and has the knack of finding the back of the net from long range.

Furthermore, the ex-Getafe man's movement off the ball is absolutely fantastic which makes him a very tricky player to mark. The Red Devils could certainly benefit from such a creative influence in the final third of the pitch.
United have lacked a quality right-sided attacker for some time now and Sarabia can solve this problem for them. At 27, he is playing at his prime and could take Solskjaer's side to the next level in the 2019/20 campaign.

Sheriff Israel has his own memory problems.
Dan Christensen of the BrowardBulldog.org reported last week that Israel was scurrying about trying to reconcile his financial disclosure declarations with income tax filings. He seemed to have had problems remembering how much money ($27,000) he had received from a private security firm in 2012, the year he ran for office.
Christensen also reported that Israel had only just now managed to get his name removed from state records as a "principal" in a Weston private investigations firm, Talon/G6. Israel's shares in the company were apparently bought out by Lewis Nadel. That was the same Lewis Nadel whose security firm, Innovative Surveillance Technology, had been funneling money to Ken Jenne back in the day.
Forte was busted August 7 in an FBI sting, accused of taking $60,000 in kickbacks in return for greasing deals down in Sweetwater.
Maybe it's time for Broward to junk antiquated sheriff elections and appoint a professional police chief. And forget about the likes of Ken Jenne and Scott Israel.


The National Museum of Health and Medicine is open every day from 10 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., with the exception of December 25.
The Historical Collections document changes in medical technology since the early 19th century. Included in this growing assemblage of more than 12,000 objects are X-ray equipment, microscopes, surgical instruments, numismatics and anatomical models.
The Anatomical Collections are made up of bones and body parts. More than 5,000 skeletal specimens and 10,000 preserved organs document medical cases of disease and injury. The collection supports research in pathology, physical anthropology, forensic anthropology, and paleopathology.
The Otis Historical Archives houses photographs, illustrations, and documents related to health and medicine. More than 350 different collections document, in pictures and words, the practice of medicine from the Civil War to the present.
The Human Developmental Anatomy Center maintains the largest collection of embryologic material in the United States. The Center is a primary source for centralized research in developmental anatomy. The Center is also known for its imaging and 3-D reconstructions of embryo development.
The National Museum of Health and Medicine, established in 1862, inspires interest in and promotes the understanding of medicine -- past, present, and future -- with a special emphasis on tri-service American military medicine. As a National Historic Landmark recognized for its ongoing value to the health of the military and to the nation, the Museum identifies, collects, and preserves important and unique resources to support a broad agenda of innovative exhibits, educational programs, and scientific, historical, and medical research. The Museum has relocated to 2500 Linden Lane, Silver Spring, Md., 20910. Visit the Museum's website at www.medicalmuseum.mil or call (301) 319-3300.
The National Museum of Health and Medicine was established during the Civil War as the Army Medical Museum, a center for the collection of specimens for research in military medicine and surgery. In 1862, Surgeon General William Hammond directed medical officers in the field to collect "specimens of morbid anatomy . . . together with projectiles and foreign bodies removed" and to forward them to the newly founded museum for study. The Museum's first curator, John Brinton, visited mid-Atlantic battlefields and solicited contributions from doctors throughout the Union Army. During and after the war, Museum staff took pictures of wounded soldiers showing effects of gunshot wounds as well as results of amputations and other surgical procedures. The information collected was compiled into six volumes of The Medical and Surgical History of the War of the Rebellion, published between 1870 and 1883.
Established during the Civil War as the Army Medical Museum, this Museum's collections focus particularly on specimens for research in military medicine and surgery, including the history and practice of American medicine. The museum's collections are made available for the education of medical professionals, Department of Defense personnel, historians, and the public through exhibits in the museum, loans to other institutions, and individualized study. The museum's more than 25 million specimens and artifacts were the first in the country to be registered by the U.S. Department of the Interior as a National Historic Landmark.

TDP MLA faces legal trouble for misbehaving with police
PTI | 21 May 2017 4:10 PM GMT
A case was today registered against TDP MLA from Tanuku in Andhra Pradesh A Radha Krishna, who allegedly summoned two police officers to his office at Iragavaram in West Godavari district and abused them.
Amaravati: A case was today registered against TDP MLA from Tanuku in Andhra Pradesh A Radha Krishna, who allegedly summoned two police officers to his office at Iragavaram in West Godavari district and abused them.
The incident took place two days ago, but it came to light only when the State Police Officers Association took up the matter and demanded immediate arrest of the MLA.
This is a second such incident in the district this month. Earlier, a case was registered against TDP MLA from Denduluru, Chintamaneni Prabhakar, for allegedly assaulting an assistant sub-inspector and some other police personnel.
Radha Krishna, against whom a case of wrongful restraint (section 342) and assault or criminal force to public servant (section 353) of IPC was registered by Tanuka rural police, denied the charges.
He merely "enquired" about a case, he said.
The matter relates to a land dispute. Four days ago, police arrested six TDP and three YSRC men following a clash between two groups.
Radha Krisha, who was irked by the arrest of TDP men, summoned Iragavaram sub-inspector K Srinivasa Rao and police writer Pradeep Kumar to his office on Thursday night, and allegedly made them sit on the floor for several hours and abused them for "violating my orders".
The two police officers were set free only when the district superintendent of police Bhaskar Bhushan called up the legislator, police sources said.
The criminal case was registered on Saturday.
"We demand immediate arrest of the MLA," Police Officers Associations honorary president M Gangadhar and president J Srinivasa Rao told reporters in Eluru.

Masked men threaten teenager during daylight Leeds home burglary
A trio of masked men threatened a teenager during a daylight burglary in Leeds.
Thursday, 24th May 2018, 12:06 pm
Updated Thursday, 24th May 2018, 12:11 pm
Stonegate Road, Leeds. Picture: Google.
The three men wearing balaclavas entered the house, in Stonegate Road, Moortown, at about 12.30pm.
An 18-year-old woman, who was home alone, was threatened by the men.
They stole cash and jewellery during the burglary on May 8.
West Yorkshire Police today (Thursday) issued CCTV footage as part of their investigation into the offence.
The men arrived and left in a distinctive, grey-coloured Audi S3.
A force spokesman said the vehicle is relatively rare and "eye catching", because of its modifications.
It was displaying false plates reading 'DG18CBO' at the time.
Police are appealing for any witnesses to get in touch.
Anyone with information is asked to call police on 101, quoting crime number 13180219798
Information can also be passed on anonymously to the independent Crimestoppers charity on 0800 555 111.


The order of events in the PSR should be able to be shuffled, even going as far to to be able to create a master list of all PSR scenes from all through lines ordered legally, but to the author's needs.
I think some folks on here have created Excel spreadsheets to do this.
A lot of people use the software just for storyforming, and then do all their illustrations in some other tool.
In Dramatica Story Expert, get down to a single storyform using any of the many tools to do so. For my test I picked a random storyform using the Project > Pick Random Storyform menu command.
Go to the StoryGuide window.
Select the Instant Dramatica button.
Select the Using the Plot Sequence Report button.
Either go through Armando's process naming and illustrating the scenes, OR skip ahead to the Creating 64 Scenes topic.
Click on the Create Sixty-Four Scenes based on the Plot Sequence Report button. This creates the 64 PSR scenes and moves you to the Scene List topic.
Click and drag the scenes into any order you want.
To test, I followed your instructions. I then dragged and dropped an MC Signpost 4 scene to a point above an RS Signpost 3 scene. To the best of my understanding, this should be illegal. All Signpost 3 scenes should occur before any Signpost 4 scene. And there's no warning that an illegal action has occurred.
Just something to keep in mind as the opportunity comes up to fix it.
I'm going to venture to say, that it's not an illegal action to move a Signpost 4 scene into Signpost 3 territory. It might be recommended by the general conventions described in many of the videos (by Melanie Ann, for instance) to finish all Signposts 1 before moving onto Signpost 2, then 3, then 4—being more or less, good or typical story-weaving practice. But I also recall her saying one could weave a story, ala Rashomon, where one could complete each throughline from Signpost 1-4 before moving on to the next throughline. For instance, one could complete the entire or majority of the main character's throughline, then move on to the influence character's, then the relationship story throughline, and then finish with the overall story throughline, thus describing 4 complete points of views in succession, rather than knitted together like a typical narrative. I wonder whether "Pulp Fiction" has signpost elements out of recommended order as well.
So while moving a Signpost 4 scene into Signpost 3 territory may not be a typical or recommended story-weaving move, it might not actually be "illegal" in the software—they've left that story-weaving decision up to the author rather than the software to decide. I like that freedom myself.
The most productive way for me today is once I have a complete story form I copy the "Story Engine Settings" Report into a Word document. The documents becomes later my binder for all my illustrations and research material for the current project. I usually have one word document full of stuff (filled-out storyform, notes for theme and character, misc) when I start my first draft.
When I copy the contents of the report first time into the word doc, I make a table with two colums. Whats before the double dots (MC RESOLVE: Change) in the report comes in the first column, whats behind in the second one.
If I change the story form later, usually that happens many times, I override in the word doc the second column manually with the new selections - but can keep my illustrations.
I have tried to work directly in dramatica but this is to cumbersome epically when it comes to copy and paste notes from one section to another one.
I also tried Excel, but Excel doesn't really work for me as it is to "technical" and hinders my muse to work.
Yeah I have the same reaction to Excel.
I have tried a few different approaches. Most recently I pasted the PSR into an outlining program called Outlinely, which I can then export to Ulysses (where I do all my drafting at the moment). It's not a perfect workflow though.
Even though the order of events are presented sequentially, the internal logic dictates that Scene 4 occurred before Scene 1 chronologically / plot-wise.
This means YOU need to keep in mind what the plot order is when you mix it up through storyweaving.
Just want to point this out so that it's absolutely clear to those new to Dramatica: Signposts are set based on the order of events in the chronology of the story. Even if Signpost 4 is shown to the audience first, it's still Signpost 4 (i.e, stuff that happened after Signpost 3).
I was about to ask about that when I saw your post. Thanks.

Ministers okay use of French as the third official language for East Africa
December 9, 2021 By URN
The Council of Ministers has agreed to consider French as a third official language to be used within the East African Community after English and Kiswahili.
The decision was made under Article 137 of the proposed Amendment of the official languages of the Community during the 41st meeting of the Ordinary Council of Ministers held in Arusha, Tanzania at the East African Community Headquarters from 22-29 November 2021.
The Council is the policy-making organ of the Community charged with, among others the responsibility of keeping under constant review the progress of implementation of the programs and activities of the Community.
Rebecca Kadaga Alitwala, the 1st Deputy Prime Minister and also Minister of East African Community Affairs on Thursday told journalists in Kampala that the introduction of French as an official language brings various benefits to the country that will include job opportunities among others.
Kadaga disclosed the Government through the Ministry of Education and Sports will have to invest in the teaching of French by designing appropriate policy frameworks to enable it to be taught and examined in school as a compulsory subject.
During the same meeting, the Council also endorsed the application of the Democratic Republic of the Congo to join the East African Community. Currently, French is widely spoken in DRC and neighboring Rwanda and Burundi.
However, the English language shall remain the official language of the Court under Article 46 while Kiswahili shall be developed as the lingua franca of the Community. Currently, the community is composed of Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, Rwanda, Burundi, and South Sudan.
During the meeting, the Council also considered the draft EAC Standardization Accreditation and Conformity Assessment (SACA) Bill, 2021, principles for EAC securities, market legal, and regulatory framework.
They also adopted the development of regional laws on the various aspects of the EAC common market protocol, regional industry value addition (RIVA) in selected value chains such as fruits and vegetables; leather, and herbal medicine.
The Council of Ministers further adopted the protocol on tourism and wildlife management, the EAC regional trade policy among others.

Risk of Second Primary Lung Cancer Remains High in Smokers
Patients who are diagnosed with lung cancer but continue to smoke are at much higher risk of developing a secondary primary lung cancer (SPLC) compared with never smokers as well as those who have quit smoking, according to the largest analysis of its kind. "This study, which looked at the relationship between smoking history and developing a second lung cancer, adds to the evidence of the harmfulness of cigarette smoking. We presumed that never smokers would have a lower risk than current smokers, but we were encouraged to find that quitting smoking lowered the risk of SPLC and quitters had similar overall survival rates as never smokers," said John Michael Boyle, MD, lead author, a radiation oncology resident at Duke Cancer Institute in Durham, North Carolina.

Global Commitment to Impact Evidence-Based Healthcare
Evidence-based healthcare, considered to be the best healthcare in the world, is a premise that many believe has become the norm in the United States. However, there are several reasons why this is not always the case. For example, one traditional standard is the empirical approach of teaching in the medical profession, "see one, do one, teach one," which is not necessarily based on current best evidence. This method may have been the best available in the past, but as research and medicine are moving more quickly than ever before, healthcare providers need additional tools to keep abreast of advances founded on evidence-based research.

Expanding Phenotypes of Inherited Colorectal Cancer Syndromes
By Cristi Radford, MS, CGC
The first multigene panels for colorectal cancer became clinically available in 2012. Prior to that date, clinical testing for inherited colorectal cancer syndromes typically proceeded in a sequential fashion. A clinician would develop a differential diagnosis and test corresponding genes in order of those most likely to have a causative mutation. Thus, analyzing multiple genes for inherited colorectal cancer risk was both time intensive and costly. Read More ›
Room for Improvement in Symptom Management
Even though oncology nurses are charged with improving patients' cancer-related and treatment-related symptoms, there is much room for improvement, according to Susan C. McMillan, PhD, ARNP, FAAN.

A Pair of Shoes
By Sue Bond
A few years ago my son talked me into buying him a pair of Reeboks. It's not that they were all that expensive, but they were purple and orange and, well, sorta ugly. I caved and bought him the shoes after he promised he would "wear them every day." He wore them for a while, but then they just ended up in the back of his closet. I mean, how long can you wear purple and orange shoes? His feet grew, as boys' feet do, and I took the shoes (still with plenty of wear left) to Goodwill. Read More ›
Help Improve Quality of Life for Oncology Patients: Changing From Reactive Nutrition Support to Proactive Nutrition Intervention in Clinical Practice
By Tiffany DeWitt, MS, MBA, RD, LD
The diagnosis of cancer and the following treatment both have a profound impact on all aspects of a patient's life. Quality of life is impacted in many aspects, including physical functioning, psychological well-being, and social life. Even at diagnosis, up to 50% of cancer patients present with some nutritional deficit that may be impacting physical functioning. Most of the anticancer treatments (ie, surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation) will jeopardize food intake and therefore nutrition status at some point during treatment. This disruption contributes further to declining quality of life throughout care and into survivorship. Read More ›
Managing Patients Receiving Ibrutinib
Ibrutinib represents a major advance in the treatment of previously treated chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and mantle cell lymphoma (MCL), having achieved dramatic and sometimes durable responses in both diseases. Although ibrutinib is approved by the US Food and Drug Administration for both CLL and MCL, judging by the show of hands at the Oncology Nursing Society 39th Annual Congress, the majority of oncology nurses have not yet had experience with it.

Emergency Powers Bill Update: Changes Will Remove Governor's Ability To Re-Issue Orders
January 25, 2023 January 25, 2023 TTC 0 Comments Bryan Richey, Emergency Powers, executive orders, HB0189, HB0422, House Bill 0189, House Bill 0422, House Joint Resolution, Tennessee, Tennessee General Assembly, Tennessee Governor, Tennessee House of Representatives

The Tennessee Conservative [By Kelly M. Jackson] –
Last week, Freshman House Representative Bryan Richey (R-District 20- Maryville) filed HB0189.
The legislation, as introduced, repeals the authority of the governor to renew an executive order to address an emergency after 45 days; authorizes the governor to call the general assembly into an extraordinary session to address the emergency; if the general assembly fails to address the emergency, authorizes the governor to renew the executive order one year after the expiration of the original order or one year after the adjournment of session, whichever occurs later.
Yesterday, January 24th, that bill was withdrawn in favor of a new bill that made some changes to the language, with specificity to the section that allows the Governor to re-issue an executive order that was in effect due to a state of emergency but, had expired. The governor would not be able to reissue that order for one full year.
The new legislation filed yesterday to replace HB0189, is HB0422, which removes entirely the Governor's ability to re-issue the same order once the order has expired. Additionally, the new version of the bill changes the process for renewal in one other way, through a house joint resolution, versus the passage of legislation.
As introduced, HB0422 authorizes the renewal or extension of the executive order or proclamation issued by the governor declaring a state of emergency only by passage of a joint resolution by the general assembly. – Amends TCA Title 4; Title 8 and Title 58.
According to House bill sponsor, Bryan Richey, it is expected that the bill will have co-sponsorship in the State Senate.
