Expression of the Day
Atlanta Braves’ Melky Cabrera at batting practice yesterday. How does his expression make you feel? What do you think it means? See my answer in the comment section in the near future.
Dr. Maureen O’Sullivan’s Speech: Part Two
Dr. O’Sullivan talks about how people who lie to their friends are less accurate in lie detection. I found this fascinating and it supports what I see in life. The more a person deludes themselves and others, the more removed from reality they become, and the more difficulty they will have in seeing the truth. It’s a good reason to be honest, if you ask me.
One audience member asks if any Truth Wizards have admitted to lying a lot themselves. I am perplexed that so many people ask this type of question, as if because we can see lies, we are good at lying. It’s mortifying really. This question comes up a lot!
Dr. O’Sullivan said it best when she said, “Actually, they are extremely honest people…I think as people they try to live their life in a very principled way…they value honesty.”
Stay tuned for Part 3 tomorrow. Thank you, Russ, for the links.
Dr. Maureen O’Sullivan Speech: Part One
Here is a speech that Dr. O’Sullivan gave that is on YouTube sometime in the past year. She talks about “Lie to Me”, facial expressions and her research on “Truth Wizards”. I hope someone carries on her work. I haven’t heard anything yet, but I hope to soon! Check back tomorrow for Part 2.
Thanks, Russ, for pointing this out.
A smirk or contempt?
Here is an interesting picture of Ryan Ketzner as he arrived to Warner Bros’ and their premiere of ‘Flipped’ on July 26, 2010.
It’s an interesting picture because he has a unilateral smile going on, which is a classic element of contempt. However, could it just be a simple smirk?
