![]() ![]() This approach assumed that individuals at risk for poor outcomes could be identified on the basis of either a small cluster of highly salient factors or the cumulative combination of several factors. The monograph provided a guide to the assessment of yellow flags that included a clinical interview and a psychosocial screening questionnaire. The social and environmental risk factors included workers' perceptions that the workplace is unsupportive and overly supportive health care providers. These psychological risk factors included fears about pain or injury, unhelpful beliefs about recovery, and distressed affect (eg, despondency and anxiety). Kendall and colleagues 1 identified a number of psychological risk factors and social and environmental risk factors for disability and work loss. 5 Even the definition of psychosocial risk factors has been criticized as so broad as to be meaningless. 2– 4 However, as with many such guidelines, their impact on clinical practice is unclear. The concept of yellow flags sparked much attention and debate and was adopted in some guidelines on the early management of work-related low back injuries. Kendall and colleagues 1 coined the term “yellow flags” to encompass psychological risk factors and social and environmental risk factors for prolonged disability and failure to return to work as a consequence of musculoskeletal symptoms. In addition, there is still a need to elucidate mechanisms of change and better integrate this understanding into the broader context of secondary prevention of chronic pain and disability. Psychological risk factors for poor prognosis can be identified clinically and addressed within interventions, but questions remain in relation to issues such as timing, necessary skills, content of treatments, and context. ![]() Published early interventions have reported mixed results, but, overall, the evidence suggests that targeting yellow flags, particularly when they are at high levels, does seem to lead to more consistently positive results than either ignoring them or providing omnibus interventions to people regardless of psychological risk factors. This article addresses 2 specific questions that arise from this development: (1) Can yellow flags influence outcomes in people with acute or subacute low back pain? and (2) Can yellow flags be targeted in interventions to produce better outcomes? Consistent evidence has been found to support the role of various psychological factors in prognosis, although questions remain about which factors are the most important, both individually and in combination, and how they affect outcomes. In recent conceptualizations of yellow flags, it has been suggested that their range of applicability should be confined primarily to psychological risk factors to differentiate them from other risk factors, such as social and environmental variables. The identification of yellow flags through early screening was expected to prompt the application of intervention guidelines to achieve secondary prevention. Take It Furtherįor additional optical illusions in the Spangler file, check out the Heart Optical Illusion or the Growing and Shrinking Head Optical Illusion.Originally the term “yellow flags” was used to describe psychosocial prognostic factors for the development of disability following the onset of musculoskeletal pain. The colors of the US flag occur because red, white, and blue are the complementary colors of cyan, black, and yellow light. After a few seconds, chemical balance is restored in the cells and the afterimage fades away. The cells temporarily “subtract” cyan, black, and yellow light from the white light coming off the white page. After several seconds of staring and then looking away at a white surface, what you see is an afterimage that results from the photoreceptors not being balanced. When you stare at a color for a long time, the cones detecting that color get tired or fatigued and your eyes become less responsive to that color of light. Your perception of colors comes from how these cells fire together and send the messages to your brain for interpretation. Amazingly, like a TV or computer screen, there are three types of cone cells that are red-, green-, and blue-light sensitive. Cones respond better in bright light to wavelengths of color so they work mostly during the daytime. Rods are more sensitive to light and dark changes so you use them more at night or in a dark space. It’s estimated that there are 120 million rod cells and a paltry 6-7 million cone cells in each of your eyes. There are two kinds of these “photoreceptors” (light receivers) and they’re called rods and cones because of their shapes. The back of your eye is layered with special cells that respond to light. ![]() ![]() Will is particularly struck by Sean's story of how he met his wife, who later died of cancer, by giving up his ticket to the historic game six of the 1975 World Series, after falling in love at first sight. During the first session, Will insults Sean's deceased wife, and Sean threatens him-but after a few unproductive sessions, Will finally begins to open up. Unlike other therapists, Sean actually challenges Will's defense mechanisms. Sean Maguire, his college roommate, who now teaches psychology at Bunker Hill Community College. Will tentatively agrees but treats his therapists with mockery. He arranges for him to avoid jail time if he agrees to study mathematics under Lambeau's supervision and participate in psychotherapy sessions. Lambeau sits in on his court appearance and watches Will defend himself. Will is arrested after he attacks a responding police officer. The next day, Will and his friends fight a gang that contains a member who used to bully Will as a child. ![]() At a bar, Will meets Skylar, a British woman about to graduate from Harvard College, who plans on attending medical school at Stanford. Will flees when Lambeau catches him writing the solution on the blackboard late at night. As a challenge to the unknown genius, Lambeau posts an even more difficult problem.

This will become a recurring problem for more than just Christine as the film wears on. Unlike the Christine of Leroux's novel, this woman does not change too much over the course of the film she experiences little spiritual growth, seeing as she has already begun at what is basically a pinnacle of innocence and tolerant perfection (even more so than the original character did), and the changes to the plot don't require her to take the lead role in saving everyone's butts the way her forbear had to. The background plays up her innocence and the fact that she is uncomfortable in the alien, worldly atmosphere of the opera house, but also robs her of a lot of her initial power as a character, as she has no musical background beyond her father's playing and is highly timid and frightened by the prospect of performing. ![]() She is a sweet, innocent country waif, who after a chance encounter with the Count de Chagny (mixing of English and French terminology, I know, but they probably felt "count" was easier for English-speaking audiences to grasp) is sent to the Paris opera house to ask for singing lessons. Be warned: it's not going to be entirely the story that most of us know.Īll of the characters are basically, fundamentally changed, beginning with Christine. Seeing as Lloyd Webber's was becoming a sensation, the Kopit/Yeston musical was shelved until it was realized that it was different enough in plot and direction to be a stand-alone piece, and this film was subsequently adapted from it, making the film version actually come out before the musical it was based on. It is based on a musical by Arthur Kopit and Maury Yeston (which has its own review over here), which was written at almost the exact same time as Lloyd Webber's. It should be noted that this is a very different version of the Phantom story, plotwise, than pretty much all other retreads. Unsurprisingly, special attention is paid to filming the mask-like faces that line the tops of some eaves, and the broken angel statues that march along some walls. The wide shots, particularly those of the house from the stage, are stunning, and the gorgeous statuary and architecture are showcased well, especially during the credits. ![]() This is what I get for buying things I can't even read.įirst of all, the sets for this piece are absolutely gorgeous, primarily because they aren't sets at all this is the first film I've watched that was shot almost entirely on location at the Paris opera house, the Palais Garnier (there are a few exceptions, most notably the Phantom's underground lagoon and the boxes in the audience, but 95% of the filming is the opera house itself). And then, after all that misdirection and confusion, it turned out that the film on the disc really was the Richardson/Dance movie after all. With a heavy, sinking heart, I put it in the player to make sure, and what should greet me at the menu screen but the logos for the Andrew Lloyd Webber musical version. I was very upset, especially since I already shelled out for that show and I didn't need two copies. ![]() Of course, this means I can't read anything on the cover, but that's what IMDB is for, right? The cover certainly has the looming visage of Charles Dance on it, but when I opened it up to put it in the player, imagine my consternation to discover that the inside insert and disc art were actually those of the Rosen/Schierhorn musical DVD. I'm trying to do my best to penny-pinch in this project, since there's so very much material to find/buy/cover, so in this particular case I had bought the Korean import DVD because it was less expensive. My relationship with this film was off to a rocky start quite literally out of the box. ![]() ![]() Kamal al-Yahya, Senior Vice President, GeoSoftware & Smart Data Solutions, said: “Throughout their long careers, Brian and Dan have shown unstinting dedication to innovation and the advancement of our geophysical industry. ![]() He is currently investigating the use of Deep Neural Networks to enhance and extend the inversion process.

And it’s white, so half the time it blends into the mountain. Then there’s that stupid bird! I hate that bird… The smoke animation? 6 frames. The static animations were the easiest, but I had to pick out key frames from the gif to get some of the animations right. This was a time consuming process and took forever to get right. You might notice that I already have the clouds and the island, but that’s because I was lucky and was able to find those files elsewhere on the web.įor the rest of the pixel art, I had to go through by hand and recreate them from the gif above. I just threw it into Fruity Loops Studio and let it do it’s thing to render a pretty nice version of the song. I lucked out with the music! I was able to find a midi file for the title screen here. I’d also like to get the music for the game as midi file. To fill it out I need to get the rest of the art assets for the hills and decorations. The island is pretty empty looking right now. I found that a random speed of around 3 pixels per draw and having about 20 clouds in the sky felt the best: Cool! Now we have clouds! Getting the Art Assets: different cloud “shapes”īy giving each cloud a random X value and speed, I can produce an effect similar to the original skybox, but a little nicer to look at. Instead, I elected to just have the several different cloud “shapes” move independently across the screen. Not only is that not very interesting to look at, but I’d have to manually un-stitch the background from the gif, and I don’t really want to do that. In the original game, the clouds are just a big strip that keeps repeating like the background in an old film. Now that the island is looking pretty good, the next step is to do the “skybox” and get some clouds put in it. Now we have the famous rotating island! Putting some Clouds in the sky: This produces the illusion that you are looking down at a plane from an angle: Left: original. This can be accomplished by taking an image, rotating about it’s center, and squishing it down by the proper ratio. We can see from the original, that the island is angled at about a 30 degree angle from the ocean floor. In code this is actually fairly simple to produce. Of course, you’re still dealing with 2D art assets, but as long as you order them correctly on the scene you can produce the optical illusion that the scene is in 3D. In 2.5D your y and z coordinates are combined along with some trigonometry to make a parallel projection of the scene. Instead, the developers elected to use an interesting trick to make the island seem as if it was 3D, by implementing a psuedo-3D or 2.5D mapping. The developers wanted to have a 3D island featured on the title screen, but (even with the cool new FX2 chip) the hardware at the time just couldn’t support implementing 3D graphics, at least not without some major elbow grease. One of these cool features was that, since the game used the new Super FX2 microchip, it had the ability to do advanced transformations on the artwork with rotation and scaling that was hard to achieve previously. Since the game was in development for 4 years, lots of love went into adding cool little features. It featured rich artwork and game-play dynamics that went way beyond the industry standard at the time. ![]() For it’s time, Yoshi’s Island was one of the most advanced games out there.
