Synopsis: Join Natasha Ann Zachariah at The Usual Place as she unpacks the latest current affairs with guests. Two months after its dismal showing at the 2025 General Election, Progress Singapore Party (PSP) has shaken up its leadership team. On July 5, it announced that its founder and chairman Tan Cheng Bock, and vice-chair Hazel Poa had stepped down from their roles in the central executive committee (CEC), the party’s highest decision-making body. Party treasurer S. Nallakaruppan also relinquished his position. All three will remain members of the party. Dr Tan has been designated party adviser. Ms Poa was a Non-Constituency MP (NCMP) in the last term of Parliament, along with party chief Leong Mun Wai. At a press conference at the party’s headquarters in Bukit Timah Shopping Centre on July 5, Mr Leong announced a renewal plan, and introduced three new members who were co-opted into the CEC. The first is Ms Stephanie Tan, a full-time homemaker and former lawyer, who was the PSP candidate for Pioneer SMC. The other two are Mr Sani Ismail, an in-house legal counsel who contested West Coast-Jurong West GRC, and Mr Lawrence Pek, a former secretary-general of the Singapore Manufacturing Federation, who contested Chua Chu Kang GRC. Ms Tan joins me in this podcast to talk about being part of PSP’s refreshed leadership team, the insights she gleaned from walking the ground as a first-time candidate, and the challenges of a political party without a presence in Parliament. The Usual Place podcast is livestreamed at noon on YouTube on Thursdays. Subscribe to the YouTube channel to catch the podcast when it airs on July 10. Highlights (click/tap above): 2:54 Taking feedback from voters during the election 6:08 How PSP will aim to change public perception going forward 13:08 With no presence in Parliament, how will PSP stand out online? 17:10 Rejigging the game plan after being hit hard from the GE2025 results 24:16 “It’s about your heart to serve.” - Lessons Ms Tan learnt from Dr Tan Cheng Bock about longevity in politics 29:37 What is one thing Ms Tan would change if she were to become an MP? 34:15 Her take on young, middle-income couples who face financial barriers when having children Host: Natasha Ann Zachariah (natashaz@sph.com.sg) Read Natasha’s articles: https://str.sg/iSXm Follow Natasha on her IG account and DM her your thoughts on this topic: https://www.instagram.com/theusualplacepodcast Follow Natasha on LinkedIn: https://str.sg/v6DN Filmed by: Studio+65 Edited by: Teo Tong Kai, Eden Soh & Natasha Liew Executive producers: Ernest Luis & Lynda HongFollow The Usual Place Podcast and get notified for new episode drops every Thursday:Channel: https://str.sg/5nfmApple Podcasts: https://str.sg/9ijXSpotify: https://str.sg/cd2PYouTube: https://str.sg/theusualplacepodcastFeedback to: podcast@sph.com.sg --- Follow more ST podcast channels: All-in-one ST Podcasts channel: https://str.sg/wvz7 Get more updates: http://str.sg/stpodcasts The Usual Place Podcast YouTube: https://str.sg/4Vwsa --- Get The Straits Times app, which has a dedicated podcast player section: The App Store: https://str.sg/icyB Google Play: https://str.sg/icyX --- #tup #tuptrSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Part one of my Attack the Backlog playthrough of Kingdom Come: Deliverance, a game that wasn't what I expected. I thought the game was going to be more open, where you create your own character and find your own story within its world. I was wrong. While you can shape the character you play to an extent, you are playing a specific character--Henry in this case--who has his own story and there's little room for deviations. This isn't a bad thing, but when you're expecting salt and get sugar instead, it's impossible to not be at least a little disappointed and disappointed I am.

I needed something chill and relaxing after the nightmare that was Kingdom Come Deliverance--expect those episodes after this one. I thought about many games, but ultimately landed on DREDGE, a relatively simple game about boating and fishing, wrapped in a mysterious Lovecraftian bow. It was exactly what the doctor ordered. If the idea of boating around and fishing doesn't sound like a bore to you, I'm sure you'll have a wonderful time too. Just remember sleep in important, very very important.
Hey everyone! We have some big changes coming to Into the Aether in the near future and we wanted to talk through them a bit.To avoid burying the lede here: We're leaving the Pickaxe podcast network and returning to complete independence. This has actually been in the works for a little while, but we wanted to only share the news when all of the boxes were checked.This is not a decision we made lightly, but we're confident it is the right decision for us and for all of you.To be clear, we have no ill-will with Pickaxe and there are no hard feelings either way. This was entirely our decision. As breezy as the process of joining was, the process of offboarding has been equally breezy. We want to extend a huge thanks to the team over there for taking a chance on us and being so cool over the last few months. It's not often you're given as much creative control as we were in situations like this.Immediate Changes:1) No more programmatic ads The first and most obvious change will be the removal of programmatic advertising in the podcast. We hugely appreciate the feedback from you all regarding the inclusion of these ads. While we're happy to have tried this method out — it clearly didn't work for us, the vibe of the show, or the values of Aether as an entity.This change will affect the entire backlog of the podcast as well, so all episodes will return to being ad-free – with the exception of our host-read ads from before the Pickaxe era.We'll share more about our plans for returning to host-read ads at a later date, but for now: If you're currently backing the show at the $10 tier, we completely understand if you'd like to downgrade or cancel your membership for the time being. While we will be returning to an advertising model that feels better to us and focuses on lifting up bands and games and projects we can get behind, the reality is that those ads won't be present in the show until August at the earliest. We hope to have you back, but also understand if you need to pull your support for the time being. 2) Chapters are back!Another welcome change (cue the applause sfx) is that chapter markers are back on the menu. The move to Pickaxe unfortunately wiped the chapter markers from all episodes of the show, meaning you all needed to rely on the written timecodes in the episode descriptions. While this wasn't the end of the world, it also wasn't intentional or desirable on our part. We're happy to say that chapter markers should be working in the entire backlog, including the episodes which were produced during the Pickaxe era.The Future:We have some other big changes and ideas in the works that we'll be announcing on the PSP retrospective episode (which we will be recording on August 2nd). These changes are all positive and double down on our desire to keep the show independent for the foreseeable future. We're excited to share them with you!We're immensely proud of what Into the Aether has become over the past seven years (!!) and want to make sure its future is sustainable and bright as an indie show on TWG. The reason we are able to try all the things we do and push ourselves further is entirely due to all of your support. So just another huge thank you to everyone for listening and giving us the confidence to try and make this show in our own way.If you have any questions, feel free to post them here in Discord or email us at intotheaetherpodcast@gmail.com.Thanks again,BB + SH ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★

Starting off with some Switch 2 news this month, the same month the Switch 2 released! We discuss a Day 1 Userland ROP Chain demonstrated on the Switch 2, the bans using MiG Flash cartridges, the beginnings of a microSD Express adapter, and get clarification on how far SciresM will support the Switch 2's homebrew scene. In Xbox centric news, rumors regarding an Xbox Classics program are clarified, along with a program similar to Cheat Engine being ported to the Xbox 360, and some awesome patches are shown to run the original Xbox's Dashboard at native 720p! Every model of the PS2 can now officially take on a Memory Card based entrypoint thanks to the release of ProtoPwn. PSP users get some love with BatterySteve to help with some aging and misleading batteries out there.
This was a frustrating experience. My first thought after booting up Evil Dead: The Game was, "Wow, this is prettier than I was expecting," followed immediately by, "Damn, I wish this was just a normal-ass single-player game. As I played the tutorials and eventually a handful of games, my disappointment and sadness only grew as the tutorial did a poor job of preparing me for a real match. Even once I started to "get it," I still wished Evil Dead: The Game was a single-player game instead of a live-service game; however, a live-service game it is (or was) and as many do, like the name of the game, this one is dead.
I've played many a Need for Speed game, but not one has frustrated me as much as Need for Speed Unbound. It may have a great sense of style and take place in a fictionalized version of my hometown--a not-so-great take on Chicago--but that's not enough to make up for its annoying structure, frustrating race design, and cheap AI. It also shouldn't come as a surprise that the story is shit, but I doubt anyone was expecting a great story in their racing game. Long story short, the fun was unfound in Need for Speed Unbound.

"Use Duality to control two bodies in real-time, letting you defend two sites at once, cover your own cross, or even trade yourself." Sounds pretty cool, right? Sadly, as cool as Spectre Divide sounded in concept, it never quite reached those levels in practice. Part of that comes down to the shooting--which was just okay--but the whole "Duality" system never felt like more than in gimmick in what little time I put into the game. Maybe its intricacies needed time to be discovered, but with it shutting down only a few weeks after its console release (and six months after its PC release), it never really got the chance.

Behold the second and final episode of my Attack the Backlog review of Grounded. While I really liked the game overall, one mission almost made me rage quit the game. I managed to get through it in the end, but it did leave a sour taste in my mouth and somewhat tarnished what is a mostly great game.

Understanding the ins and outs of driver testing and background checks can make all the difference in a trucking career. For Marc Bourne and Grady Phillips, supporting drivers means building trust through transparency and clear communication around testing and background screening. In this episode, Chelsea Faulkner sits down with Marc Bourne, Vice President of Background Screening, Training, and Compliance Services at Workforce QA, and Grady Phillips, CRO at Workforce QA, who both bring a unique background to trucking, to explore how testing processes can be fair, straightforward, and driver-friendly. They discuss how companies can move beyond just ticking boxes to fostering honest, respectful relationships. You'll hear them bust common myths about drug and background testing, explain why drivers should take charge of their own records, and share how ongoing education and advocacy help create a safer, better-informed trucking community. Marc and Grady stress the importance of treating drivers like people and giving them clarity about what's tested and why it matters. In this episode, you'll hear about: Why trust is the foundation of driver testing and records How to advocate for yourself with MVR, PSP, and background checks How digitization can improve the hiring process Resources: Grady Phillips on LinkedIn Marc Bourne on LinkedIn HandledNow Website HandledNow on Facebook Chelsea on LinkedIn Episode highlights: (00:00) Intro and background of Marc Bourne and Grady Phillips (00:07:00) Why trust matters between drivers and companies (00:14:00) The power of clear communication and candidate experience (00:16:00) Debunking common myths about background checks (00:22:30) Understanding MVR, PSP, and clearinghouse records (00:32:00) Keeping up with policy changes and regulations (00:37:00) How digital tools are changing testing and record keeping (00:39:00) Rapid fire: driver questions and redesigning testing (00:43:00) Making drivers feel supported, not singled out (00:44:30) How to connect with Marc and Grady
It doesn't matter if you're first to an idea, if you don't execute it well enough, someone else can swoop in and steal your thunder before you even manage to throw your lightning. That's the case with Stampede: Racing, a battle royale kart racer where you start with 60 players and gradually whittle it down to one after reaching select checkpoints during a race. Sound familiar? It should, because it's basically Mario Kart World's Knockout Tour mode (and also way more similar to something like Fall Guys than Fortnite). Now, I don't know if Stampede was actually first to this idea, but I think we can all agree Knockout Tour refined the idea and made it into something that's tons of fun and will last in a way Stampede never was and will never get a chance to be.
Behold the first part of my review of Grounded. It's been a long time coming. I tried playing and streaming the game once before, but got so annoyed with the chat that I rage quit both the game and streaming for years. Fast-forward to now and things are very different, not only did chat never bother me when I streamed the game--you can check out the archive for my entire playthrough if you want--I also had a great time with the game and look forward to playing and seeing more (even though I will never not be scared whenever a spider shows up).

On this powerful episode of The Manchester Living Podcast, host Brian Levy is joined by Janice Bloom and Ileen McFarland to discuss Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP)—a rare, often misdiagnosed neurodegenerative disease similar to Parkinson's but far more aggressive.Janice and Ileen share deeply personal stories of navigating their husbands' PSP diagnoses, including the physical, emotional, and logistical challenges of caregiving. From misdiagnosis and finding proper care to emotional shifts, brain donation, anticipatory grief, and finding balance in caregiving, this episode is a must-watch for anyone affected by rare diseases or caring for a loved one.Their insights offer not just education, but inspiration—and a powerful reminder that while the body may decline, the human connection remains.http://www.ManchesterLivingPodcast.com
I had a taste for more Star Wars after playing through both Star Wars Jedi games and rewatching most of the movies and shows. I could have played something new, something I never played before, but opted for something I remembered fondly: Star Wars: The Force Unleashed. My memory of the game was that it wasn't amazing, but achieved what it set out to do: deliver a satisfying Jedi power fantasy; however, sometimes things are left best as memories and Star Wars: The Force Unleashed is exactly that. Instead of getting the power fantasy I expected, I got a frustrating reality of sadness and disappointment.
Broforce is a lot of fun...until it isn't. What do I mean by this? I don't mean what you probably think--that it's fun for a while and eventually stops being fun--but that it's best enjoyed in small doses instead of large ones. I played Broforce two nights in a row for roughly four hours each night and the same thing happened both nights: after about hour two, I started to get annoyed and frustrated with the game and stopped enjoying it. Long story short, I'd recommend Broforce to most--especially if you have a friend or two to play it with (even though it can get quite hectic)--just make sure you keep your sessions on the shorter side if you don't want to lose your mind.

I've always been a naysayer about Fortnite's move to the battle royale space--I am one of the weirdos who liked Fortnite when it was just Save the World--so take everything I say with a grain of salt, but I always found Realm Royale more fun that Fortnite. It wasn't good enough to pull me away from Apex Legends when I was deep in the battle royale space, but if there was any runner-up for me amongst the crowd, it was Realm Royale, so with that, let's pour one out for this here game that had a good run and is no longer with us. Cheers Realm Royale, you were one of the good ones.
Believe it or not, but this forgotten game was one of the games that inspired Attack the Backlog. I still remember thinking it looked so cool on PlayStation 4, but never getting around to it because I was all-in on Xbox One to start that generation. By the time I got a PlayStation 4, it felt like the moment had passed and I might as well wait for a hopeful Xbox One port. Fast-forward four years and it would finally make its way to Xbox, Switch, and Vita and...I still didn't play it. Now, some seven years later, I've finally scratched Mercenary Kings off my backlog and, sadly, it couldn't help but disappoint with repetitive and tedious missions, weird customization choices, and occasionally frustrating difficulty spikes.

A combination of uninspired gameplay and a completely bonkers handling of its release are just two of the factors that led to MultiVersus wasting a treasure trove of IP; add a poor microtransaction structure and spotty server connectivity on top of that and you've got a recipe for disaster, and a disaster is exactly what MultiVersus was. It's a shame, too, because with better gameplay and a better handling of its great cast of characters, MultiVersus had the potential to be one of the few live service success stories, but alas, a success story it was not.
Gameplay woes and character issues aside, the team over at Naughty Dog pulled off the impossible: they not only made me not hate Abby, they made me like her so much I think she may just be the new best character in the series. Unlike Ellie, Abby actually shows growth and an ability to make her own decisions, whereas Ellie becomes a less interesting character the longer the game goes on, eventually becoming someone I almost, kind of, don't like anymore--the final confrontation is a perfect showcase of the how feelings have changed from the beginning of the playthrough to the end of it. While I still don't think Naughty Dog is the best at gameplay, they prove with The Last of Us Part II that they still know how to make one hell of a story.
Dysfunction of the supranuclear ocular motor pathways typically causes highly localizable deficits. With sophisticated neuroimaging, it is critical to better understand structure-function relationships and precisely localize pathology within the brain. In this episode, Lyell K. Jones Jr, MD, FAAN, speaks with Gregory P. Van Stavern, MD, author of the article “Supranuclear Disorders of Eye Movements” in the Continuum® April 2025 Neuro-ophthalmology issue. Dr. Jones is the editor-in-chief of Continuum: Lifelong Learning in Neurology® and is a professor of neurology at Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota. Dr. Van Stavern is the Robert C. Drews professor of ophthalmology and visual sciences at Washington University in St Louis, Missouri.

Dr Jones: This is Dr Lyell Jones, Editor-in-Chief of Continuum: Lifelong Learning in Neurology. Today I'm interviewing Dr Gregory Van Stavern, who recently authored an article on intranuclear and supranuclear disorders of eye movements for our latest Continuum issue on neuro-ophthalmology. Dr Van Stavern is the Robert C Drews professor of ophthalmology and visual sciences at Washington University in Saint Louis. Dr Van Stavern, welcome, and thank you for joining us today. Why don't you introduce yourself to our audience? Dr Van Stavern: Hi, my name is Gregory Van Stavern. I'm a neuro-ophthalmologist located in Saint Louis, and I'm pleased to be on this show today. Dr Jones: We appreciate you being here, and obviously, any discussion of the visual system is worthwhile. The visual system is important. It's how most of us and most of our patients navigate the world. Roughly 40% of the brain---you can correct me if I'm wrong---is in some way assigned to our visual system. But it's not just about the sensory experience, right? The afferent visual processing. We also have motor systems of control that align our vision and allow us to accurately direct our vision to visual targets of interest. The circuitry is complex, which I think is intimidating to many of us. It's much easier to see a diagram of that than to describe it on a podcast. But I think this is a good opportunity for us to talk about the ocular motor exam and how it helps us localize lesions and, and better understand diagnoses for certain disorders. So, let's get right to it, Dr Van Stavern. If you had from your article, which is outstanding, a single most important message for our listeners about recognizing or treating patients with ocular motor disorders, what would that message be? Dr Van Stavern: Well, I think if we can basically zoom out a little to the big picture, I think it really emphasizes the continuing importance of the examination. History as well, but the examination. I was reading an article the other day that was essentially downplaying the importance of the physical examination in the modern era with modern imaging techniques and technology. But for neurology, and especially neuro-ophthalmology, the history and the examination should still drive clinical decision-making. And doing a careful assessment of the ocular motor system should be able to tell you exactly where the lesion is located, because it's very easy to order a brain MRI, but the MRI is, like Forrest Gump might say, it's like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're going to find. You may find a lot of things, but because you've done the history and the examination, you can see if whatever lesion is uncovered by the MRI is the lesion that explains what's going on with the patient. So even today, even with the most modern imaging techniques we have, it is still really important to know what you're looking for. And that's where the oculomotor examination can be very helpful. Dr Jones: I did not have Forrest Gump on my bingo card today, Dr Van Stavern, but that's a really good analogy, right? If you order the MRI, you don't know what you're going to get. And then- and if you don't have a really well-formed question, then sometimes you get misleading information, right? Dr Van Stavern: Exactly. Dr Jones: We'll get into some technology here in a minute, because I think that's relevant for this discussion. I think most of our listeners are going to agree with us that the exam is important in neuro-ophthalmology, and neurology broadly. So, I think you have some sympathetic listeners there. Again, the point of the exam is to localize and then lead to a diagnosis that we can help patients with. When you think about neurologic disorders where the ocular motor exam helps you get to the right diagnosis, obviously disorders of eye movements, but sometimes it's a clue to a broader neurologic syndrome. And you have some nice discussions in your article about the ocular motor clues to Parkinson disease or to progressive supranuclear palsy. Tell us a little more about that. In your practice, which neurologic disorders do you find the ocular motor exam being most helpful? Dr Van Stavern: Well, just a very brief digression. So, I started off being an ophthalmology resident, and I do two years of ophthalmology and then switch to neurology. And during neurology residency, I was debating which subspecialty to go into, and I realized that neuro-ophthalmology touches every other subspecialty in neurology. And it goes back to the fact that the visual system is so pervasive and widely distributed throughout the brain. So, if you have a neurologic disease, there is a very good chance it is going to affect vision, maybe in a minor way or a major way. That's why careful assessment of the visual system, and particularly the oculomotor system, is really helpful for many neurologic diseases. Neuromuscular disease, obviously, myasthenia gravis and certain myopathies affect the eye movements. Neurodegenerative diseases, in particular Parkinson's disease and parkinsonian conditions, often affect the eye movements. And in particular, when you're trying to differentiate, is this classic Parkinson's disease? Or is this progressive supranuclear palsy? Is it some broad spectrum multisystem atrophy? The differences between the eye movement disorders, even allowing for the fact that there's overlap, can really help point in one direction to the other, and again, prevent unnecessary testing, unnecessary treatment, and so on. Dr Jones: Very good. And I think, to follow on a thread from that concept with patients who have movement disorders, in my practice, seeing older patients who have a little bit of restriction of vertical gaze is not that uncommon. And it's more common in patients who have idiopathic Parkinson disease. And then we use that part of the exam to help us screen patients for other neurodegenerative syndromes like progressive nuclear- supranuclear palsy. So, do you have any tips for our listeners to- how to look at, maybe, vertical gaze and say, this is maybe a normal age-related degree of change. This is something that might suggest idiopathic Parkinson disease. Or maybe something a little more progressive and sinister like progressive super nuclear palsy? Dr Van Stavern: Well, I think part of the issue- and it's harder to do this without the visual aspect. One of my colleagues always likes to say for a neurologist, the eye movement exam begins and ends with the neurology benediction, just doing the sign of the cross and checking the eye movements. And that's a good place to start. But I think it's important to remember that all you're looking at is smooth pursuit and range of eye movements, and there's much more to the oculomotor examination than that. There's other aspects of eye movement. Looking at saccades can be really helpful; in particular, classically, saccadic movements are selectively abnormal in PSP versus Parkinson's with progressive supranuclear palsy. Saccades, which are essentially rapid movements of the eyes---up and down, in this case---are going to be affected in downward gaze. So, the patient is going to have more difficulty initiating downward saccades, slower saccades, and less range of movement of saccades in downgaze. Whereas in Parkinson's, it's classically upward eye movements and upgaze. So, I think that's something you won't be able to see if you're just doing, looking at, you know, your classic, look at your eye movements, which are just assessing, smooth pursuit. Looking carefully at the eye movements during fixation can be helpful. Another aspect of many parkinsonian conditions is saccadic intrusions, where there's quick movements or saccades of the eye that are interrupting fixation. Much, much more common in PSP than in Parkinson's disease. The saccadic intrusions are what we call square-wave jerks because of what they look like. Eye movement recordings are much larger amplitude in PSP and other multisystem atrophy diseases than with Parkinson's. And none of these are perfect differentiators, but the constellation of those findings, a patient with slow downwards saccades, very large amplitude, and frequent saccadic intrusions might point you more towards this being PSP rather than Parkinson's. Dr Jones: That's a great pearl, thinking about the saccades in addition to the smooth pursuit. So, thank you for that. And you mentioned eye movement measurements. I think it's simultaneously impressive and a little scary that my phone can tell when I'm looking at it within a few degrees of visual attention. So, I imagine there are automated tools to analyze eye movement. Tell us, what's the state of the art there, and what should our listeners be aware of in terms of tools that are available and what they can and can't do? Dr Van Stavern: Well, I could tell you, I mean, I see neuro-ophthalmic patients with eye movement disorders every day and we do not have any automated tools for eye movement. We have a ton of imaging techniques for imaging the optic nerve and the retina in different ways, but we don't routinely employ eye movement recording devices. The only time we usually do that is in somebody where we suspect they have a central or peripheral vestibular disease and we send them for vestibular testing, for eye movement recordings. There is interest in using- I know, again, sort of another digression, but if you're looking at the HINTS technique, which is described in the chapter to differentiate central from peripheral disease, which is a very easy, useful way to differentiate central from peripheral or peripheral vestibular disease. And again, in the acute setting, is this a stroke or not a stroke? Is it the brain or is it the inner ear? Part of the problem is that if you're deploying this widespread, the people who are doing it may not be sufficiently good enough at doing the test to differentiate, is a positive or negative test? And that's where some people have started introducing this into the emergency room, these eye movement recording devices, to give the- using, potentially, AI and algorithms to help the emergency room physicians say, all right, this looks like a stroke, we need to admit the patient, get an MRI and so on, versus, this is vestibular neuritis or an inner ear problem, treat them symptomatically, follow up as an outpatient. That has not yet been widely employed. It's a similar way that a lot of institutions are having fundus photography and OCT devices placed in the emergency room to aid the emergency room physician for patients who present with acute vision issues. So, I think that could be the future. It probably would be something that would be AI-assisted or AI-driven. But I can tell you at least at our institution and most of the ones I know of, it is not routinely employed yet. Dr Jones: So maybe on the horizon, AI kind of facilitated tools for eye movement disorder interpretation, but it's not ready for prime time yet. Is that a fair summary? Dr Van Stavern: In my opinion, yes. Dr Jones: Good to know. This has struck me every time I've read about ocular motor anatomy and ocular motor disorders, whether they're supranuclear or intranuclear disorders. The anatomy is complex, the circuitry is very complicated. Which means I learn it and then I forget it and then I relearn it. But some of the anatomy isn't even fully understood yet. This is a very complex real estate in the brainstem. Why do you think the neurophysiology and neuroanatomy is not fully clarified yet? And is there anything on the horizon that might clarify some of this anatomy? Dr Van Stavern: The very first time I encountered this topic as an ophthalmology resident and later as a neurology resident, I just couldn't understand how anyone could really understand all of the circuitry involved. And there is a lot of circuitry that is involved in us simply having clear, single binocular vision with the afferent and efferent system working in concert. Even in arch. In my chapter, when you look at the anatomy and physiology of the smooth pursuit system or the vertical gaze pathways, there's a lot of, I'll admit it, there's a lot of hand waving and we don't completely understand it. I think a lot of it has to do with, in the old days, a lot of the anatomy was based on lesions, you know, lesion this area either experimentally or clinically. And that's how you would determine, this is what this region of the brain is responsible for. Although we've gotten more sophisticated with better imaging, with functional connectivity MRI and so on, all of those have limitations. And that's why I still don't think we completely understand all the way this information is integrated and synthesized, and, to get even more big level and esoteric, how this makes its way into our conscious mind. And that has to do with self-awareness and consciousness, which is a whole other kettle of fish. It's just really complicated. I think when I'm at least talking to other neurologists and residents, I try to keep it as simple as possible from a clinical standpoint. If you see someone with an eye movement problem, try to see if you can localize it to which level you're dealing with. Is it a muscle problem? Is it neuromuscular junction? Is it nerve? Is it nucleus? Is it supranuclear? If you can put it at even one of those two levels, you have eliminated huge territories of neurologic real estate, and that will definitely help you target and tailor your workup. So, again, you're not costing the patient in the healthcare system hundreds of thousands of dollars. Dr Jones: Great points in there. And I think, you know, if we can't get it down to the rostral interstitial nucleus of the medial longitudinal fasciculus, if we can get it to the brainstem, I think that's obviously- that's helpful in its own right. And I imagine, Dr Van Stavern, managing patients with persistent ocular motor disorders is a challenge. We take foveation for granted, right, when we can create these single cortical images. And I imagine it's important for daily function and difficult for patients who lose that ability to maintain their ocular alignment. What are some of the clinical tools that you use in your practice that our listeners should be aware of to help patients that have a persistent supranuclear disorder of ocular movement? Dr Van Stavern: Well, I think you tailor your treatment to the symptoms, and if it's directly due to underlying condition, obviously you treat the underlying condition. If they have sixth nerve palsy because of a skull base tumor, obviously you treat the skull base tumor. But from a practical standpoint, I think it depends on what the symptom is, what's causing it, and how much it's affecting their quality of life. And everyone is really different. Some patients have higher levels of tolerance for blurred vision and double vision. For things- for patients who have double vision, depending upon the underlying cause we can sometimes use prisms and glasses. Prisms are simply- a lot of people just think prism is this, like, mystical word that means a lot. It's simply just an optical device that bends light. So, it essentially bends light to allow the eyes- basically, the image to fall on the fovea in both eyes. And whether the prisms help or not is partly dependent upon how large the misalignment is. If somebody has a large degree of misalignment, you're not going to fix that with prism. The amount of prism you'd need to bend the light enough to land on the fovea in both eyes would cause so much blur and distortion that it would essentially be a glorified patch. So, for small ranges of misalignment, prisms are often very helpful, that we can paste over glasses or grind into glasses. For larger degrees of misalignment that- let's say it is due to some skull base tumor or brain stem lesion that is not going to get better, then eye muscle surgery is a very effective option. We usually like to give people a long enough period of time to make sure there's no change before proceeding with eye muscle surgery. Dr Jones: Very helpful. So, prisms will help to a limited extent with misalignment, and then surgery is always an option if it's persistent. That's a good pearl for, I think, our listeners to take away. Dr Van Stavern: And even in those circumstances, even prisms and eye muscle surgery, the goal is primarily to cause single binocular vision and primary gaze at near. Even in those cases, even with the best results, patients are still going to have double vision, eccentric gaze. For most people, that's not a big issue, but we have had a few patients… I had a couple of patients who were truck drivers who were really bothered by the fact that when they look to the left, let's say because it's a 4th nerve palsy on the right, they have double vision. I had a patient who was a golfer who was really, really unhappy with that. Most people are okay with that, but it all depends upon the individual patient and what they use their vision for. Dr Jones: That's a great point. There's not enough neurologists in the world. I know for a fact there are not enough neuro-ophthalmologists in the world, right? There's just not many people that have that dual expertise. You mentioned that you started with ophthalmology and then did neurology training. What do you think the pipeline looks like for neuro-ophthalmology? Do you see growing interest in this among trainees, or unchanged? What are your thoughts about that? Dr Van Stavern: No, that's a continuing discussion we're having within our own field about how to attract more residents into neuro-ophthalmology. And there's been a huge shift. In the past, this was primarily ophthalmology-driven. Most neuro-ophthalmologists were trained in ophthalmology initially before doing a fellowship. The last twenty years, it switched. Now there's an almost 50/50 division between neurologists and ophthalmologists, as more neurologists have become more interested. This is probably a topic more for the ophthalmology equivalent of Continuum. One of the perceptions is this is not a surgical subspecialty, so a lot of ophthalmology residents are disincentivized to pursue it. So, we have tried to change that. You can do neuro-ophthalmology and do eye muscle surgery or general ophthalmology. I think it really depends upon whether you have exposure to a neuro-ophthalmologist during your neurology residency. If you do not have any exposure to neuro-ophthalmology, this field will always seem mysterious, a huge black box, something intimidating, and something that is not appealing to a neurologist. I and most of my colleagues make sure to include neurology residents in our clinic so they at least have exposure to it. Dr Jones: That's a great point. If you never see it, it's hard to envision yourself in that practice. So, a little bit of a self-fulfilling prophecy. If you don't have neuro-ophthalmologists, it's hard to expose that practice to trainees. Dr Van Stavern: And we're also trying; I mean, we make sure to include medical students, bring them to our meetings, present research to try to get them interested in this field at a very early stage. Dr Jones: Dr Van Stavern, great discussion, very helpful. I want to thank you for joining us today. I want to thank you for not just a great podcast, but also just a wonderful article on ocular motor disorders, supranuclear and intranuclear. I learned a lot, and hopefully our listeners did too. Dr Van Stavern: Well, thanks. I really appreciate doing this. And I love Continuum. I learn something new every time I get another issue. Dr Jones: Well, thanks for reading it. And I'll tell you as the editor of Continuum, I learn a lot reading these articles. So, it's really a joy to get to read, up to the minute, cutting-edge clinical content for neurology. Again, we've been speaking with Dr Gregory Van Stavern, author of a fantastic article on intranuclear and supranuclear disorders of eye movements in Continuum's most recent issue on neuro-ophthalmology. Please check it out, and thank you to our listeners for joining today. Dr Monteith: This is Dr Teshamae Monteith, Associate Editor of Continuum Audio.

What makes a great project manager in the residential construction world? Matt and Risinger Build business partner, Tim Hill, sit down to discuss what they've come to define as a GREAT project manager. Drawing on years of experience, they identify five essential qualities: LeadershipCollaborationCommunicationWork EthicPeople ManagementGreat project managers earn the respect of their teams through fairness, transparency, and deep knowledge. They must also collaborate effectively with everyone involved—from clients and design professionals to subcontractors and suppliers. Strong communication skills are key, with an emphasis on sharing updates early and often, especially when things go wrong. Weekly written progress reports, regular client meetings, and proactive problem-solving help keep projects on track. A solid work ethic is another cornerstone: successful PMs do whatever the project demands, even if that means working late or on weekends. They're not just clocking hours—they're taking ownership. People management, the fifth trait, ties everything together. PMs need emotional intelligence, adaptability, and the ability to influence and motivate a wide range of personalities. Matt and Tim also discuss the value of critical and logical thinking, which underpins all five qualities. They recommend using tools like PSP testing to evaluate applicants' soft skills and cognitive strengths.
