Page-turner

A **page-turner** is a person whose job is to turn sheet music pages for a solo musician, often a pianist, usually during a performance.

While some music is arranged so that the pages end at places where the musician can spare one hand to turn them, this is not always possible. A page-turner is often needed by musicians who are playing difficult pieces and prefer not to play from memory. A page-turner needs to be able to understand the musician's signals and follow the music to know when to turn the page. Page-turners are sometimes friends of the performer or members of the accompanying orchestra helping the musician. Professional page-turners are usually freelance casual workers.

Mechanical page-turners are also available, sometimes controlled by the musician via a foot pedal. Charles Halle is said to have invented the automatic page-turner.
Crocodylomorph

The **Crocodylomorphs** are an important group of archosaurs. It includes the crocodilians and their extinct relatives. They were the only members of Pseudosuchia to survive the end-Triassic extinction.

During Mesozoic and early Tertiary times the Crocodylomorphs were much more diverse than they are now.

They were originally small, lightly built, active land animals.  These were replaced during the early Jurassic by various aquatic and marine forms. The later Jurassic, Cretaceous, and Tertiary saw a wide diversity of terrestrial and semi-aquatic lines.

Modern crocodilians do not appear until the Upper Cretaceous.

## Evolutionary history

The crocodylian lineage (clade Crurotarsi) were a very diverse group of reptiles. Not only are they an ancient group of animals, at least as old as the dinosaurs, they also evolved into a great variety of forms.

The earliest forms, the sphenosuchians, evolved during the Upper Triassic. They were slim land animals built like greyhounds. During the Jurassic and the Cretaceous, marine forms evolved forelimbs that were paddle-like and had a tail similar to modern fish.

The group had a wider range of habitats and behaviours than it does at present. Dakosaurus andiniensis, a species closely related to Metriorhynchus, had a skull adapted for eating large marine reptiles.  Several terrestrial species during the Cretaceous evolved herbivory. A number of lines during the Tertiary and Pleistocene became wholly land predators.

Casineria

***Casineria*** was a tetrapod which lived 340 million years ago (mya) in the Mississippian. It was a small animal, length about 15 centimeters.

It lived in what was then a fairly dry environment in what is now Scotland. It had a mosaic of 'basal' (= primitive) amphibian and 'derived' (= advanced) amniote characters.

_Casineria_ was at or very near the origin of the amniotes. It may have been one of the very first true amniotes. The only fossil lacks key elements: most of the skull and the whole lower body is missing. This makes exact analysis difficult.

_Casineria_ was an insectivore. This earliest amniote had five fingers with claws on each hand, and marks the earliest known clawed foot.

Its name, _Casineria_, is a latin version of _Cheese Bay_, the site near Edinburgh, where it was found.

## Discovery

In 1992, an amateur fossil collector spotted the remains of this four-legged creature on the shore of Cheese Bay, Scotland. For the next five years, the fossil waited at the National Museum of Scotland in Edinburgh while researchers focused on other projects. In 1997, work began to expose the remainder of the fossil from the surrounding matrix of stone.

The work revealed that the animal probably lived in an environment much drier than previously understood. The findings were first reported in 1999.

## Phylogenetic relationship

_Casineria_ shows features that ties it in with early tetrapods, notably a generally gracile (slim) build with light leg-bones, unfused ankles and toes ending in claws. This would enable the animal to use their feet actively in traction, rather than as holdfasts. This indicates a mainly terrestrial lifestyle. These traits shows it was closely related to amniotes.

With its advanced features, _Casineria_ may have been one of the very first true amniotes, that is, egg-layers before the split between Synapsids and Sauropsids. _Casineria_ pushes back the origin of amniote lineages much further than was previously realized.

_Casineria_ and its relatives were perhaps the first vertebrates to live and reproduce on land.
Protoclepsydrops

***Protoclepsydrops*** was an early amniote from about 314 million years ago. Its remains were found at the Joggins Fossil Cliffs World Heritage Site. The dating of this site has been debated, with dates from 320 million years ago (mya)  to 305 mya being suggested.<sup>p39</sup> It is now settled as 314.5–313.4 mya +/- 1.1 million years.<sup>p40</sup>

The skeletal remains of _Protoclepsydrops_ suggest it may have been a synapsid. If so, it is the oldest synapsid known, though its status is unconfirmed because its remains were fragmentary. _Protoclepsydrops_ lived slightly earlier than _Archaeothyris_, which was definitely a synapsid. Like _Archaeothyris_, _Protoclepsydrops_ had a body shape which resembled modern lizards.
Paleothyris

***Paleothyris*** was a small, agile, anapsid reptile which lived in the Pennsylvanian epoch in Nova Scotia (about 312 to 304 million years ago).

_Paleothyris_ had sharp teeth and large eyes: it was a nocturnal hunter. It was about a foot long. It probably fed on insects and other smaller animals found on the floor of its forest home.

_Paleothyris_ was an early sauropsid, yet it still had some features that were more labyrinthodont-like than reptile-like. Its skull lacked fenestrae, holes found in the skulls of most reptiles and mammals.

Amy Brenneman

**Amy Frederica Brenneman** (born June 22, 1964) is an American producer and actor. She is best known for starring in _NYPD Blue_ and _Judging Amy_. She has also starred in many movies. She was born in Connecticut.
Westlothiana

***Westlothiana lizziae*** is an early tetrapod. It is a transitional fossil, with a mixture of amphibian and early amniote characters.<sup>282</sup> Its body shape had a superficial resemblance to modern-day lizards. It lived during the Carboniferous period, about 350 million years ago.

The type specimen was discovered in East Kirkton Quarry, Bathgate, Scotland, in 1984. It was named after the County of West Lothian where it was found.

## _Westlothiania_ in life

This species probably lived near a freshwater lake, probably hunting for other small creatures that lived in the same habitat. It was a slender animal, with rather small legs and a long tail.

Together with _Casineria_, another transitional fossil found in Scotland, it is one of the smallest terapods known, being a mere 20 cm in adult length.

The small size has made it a key fossil in the search for the earliest amniote, as amniote eggs are thought to have evolved in very small animals. There are derived (advanced) features which tie it in with the amniotes rather than amphibians. These are: unfused ankle bones, lack of labyrinthodont infolding of the dentine in teeth, a lack of an otic notch and a generally small skull.

The long body and small legs were a possible adaptation to burrowing, similar to that seen in modern skinks.

## Phylogeny

Ideas of how _Westlothiana_ should be classified has varied from basal amniote to an amphibian Lepospondyl. The actual phylogenetic position of _Westlothiania_ is uncertain.

Archaeothyris

***Archaeothyris*** was one of the earliest definite synapsids. It lived in the late Carboniferous period, 306 million years ago.

It shares this fame with another species (***Echinerpeton***) about which little is known. ***Protoclepsydrops*** is even slightly older, but only fragments have been found.

_Archaeothyris_ was found in Nova Scotia, in the same area as several other species which were probably sauropsids: _Hylonomus_, and _Petrolacosaurus_.

_Archaeothyris_ belonged to a group of early pelycosaurs which evolved early in the Pennsylvanian. It is thus seen as the precursor of all synapsids (which include mammals).

## Appearance and lifestyle

Unlike the early sauropsids, _Hylonomus_ and its kin, _Archaeothyris_ was relatively large, measuring  head to tail. It was also more advanced than the early sauropsids (~reptiles), with strong jaws that could open wider than those of the sauropsids. Its sharp teeth were all of the same shape, and it had a pair of enlarged canines, suggesting that it was a carnivore.

_Archaeothyris_ lived in what is now Nova Scotia, about 306 million years ago in the Carboniferous Period (Pennsylvanian). Nova Scotia was at this time a swamp, similar to today's Everglades in Florida. The 'trees' (actually giant clubmosses) were very tall. Some, such as _Lepidodendron_, were up to  tall. _Archaeothyris_ and the other early amniotes lived on the forest floor.
Ray Milland

**Ray Milland** (3 January 1907 – 10 March 1986) was a Welsh-American actor and director.

## Career

In the early years he achieved success in films such as _Bulldog Drummond Escapes_ (1937), _Hotel Imperial_ (1939), _Beau Geste_ (1939), and _The Major and the Minor_ (1942) with Ginger Rogers. He was also in _Ministry of Fear_ (1944), by Fritz Lang. In the Billy Wilder film _The Lost Weekend_ (1945), he played the role of Don Birnam, an alcoholic writer. That role earned him an Academy Award as best actor.

Another performance was as Oliver Barrett III (1970), in the Arthur Hiller film _Love Story_ (1970), with Ali MacGraw and Ryan O'Neal.

## Sci-fi movies

In early 1960, Ray Milland started much to play evil characters, in horror and sci-fi movies such as _Panic in Year Zero!_ (1962), he also directed. _Premature Burial_ (1962) and _X: The Man with the X-Ray Eyes_ (1963), by Roger Corman, in _Frogs_ (1972), he played a man who is attacked by a plague of mutant frogs, _The Thing with Two Heads_ (1972), he played a doctor who had a head transplant, _Terror in the Wax Museum_ (1973).

## Television

He had a long career in television, including his TV series _Meet Mr. McNutley_ (1953–54), as Ray McNulty, and the Crime TV series _Markham_ (1959–60), as Roy Markham a former lawyer, who works as a detective.

He was a special guest star in _General Electric Theater_, _Night Gallery_, _Columbo_, _Battlestar Galactica_, _Fantasy Island_, _The Love Boat_, _Hart to Hart_, and many more.

Canine tooth

**Canine teeth** are found in mammals. They are the eye teeth, fangs or dogteeth. They are on either side of the incisors. Their main function is to hold food firmly in order to tear it apart, and also attack and defence.

In some mammals they are weapons of attack and defence. Examples are: wolves and dogs; the cat family; walrus. Baboons and the great apes have large canines, especially the adult males. In humans they are much reduced, and sit in line with the other teeth.
Premolar

The **premolar** teeth of mammals are the teeth between the canines and the molars. There are at most a total of eight of them. The number is reduced in the dental formula of many species.

As the name suggests, they are like smaller molars, and their function is to crush  and grind food.

Lumbricus terrestris

***Lumbricus terrestris***, also known as the **common worm**, **lob worm**, or **dew worm**, is a large reddish worm native to Europe, but now also widely distributed elsewhere around the world (along with several other lumbricids), due to human introductions. In some areas where it has been introduced, some people consider it to be a serious pest species, since it is out-competing locally native worms.

Through much of Europe it is the largest naturally occurring species of earthworm, typically reaching 20 – 25 cm in length when extended (though in parts of southern Europe there are native species which are much larger). It has an unusual habit of copulating on the surface at night, which makes it more visible than most other earthworms.
