The Lie Detectors - Improved Police Work and Courts

There's this strong belief in the single or combined use of these 5 methods of lie detection:

* Polygraph testing
* Voice stress analysers
* Mimicry including capillory dilation
* fMRI and its brain signals, also where it says "lie", "false" and "deception"
* Transdermal Optical Imaging (new)

These can greatly contribute to police standards of practice, routinely used. The courts have earlier been encouraged to use both video and audio recordings for lie detection in the process of legal work at these arenas.

It's also a strong belief that the combined use of all or any 2 gives the lie itself its death. That lying dies as this is incorporated on all levels throughout the legal systems of the World. That reality gives these 4 methods 100% (or near-100%) hit level in revealing lies/lying.

I'll follow up on some cases where its use can greatly influence the results. Ok? Cheers!

Transdermal Optical Imaging is presented by Kang Lee on TedTalks, by url, https://www.ted.com/talks/kang_lee_can_you_really_tell_if_a_kid_is_lying .

Lie detectors - A more happy and religious world?

It's my view that all the injustice of the World helps the Darwinian view as a kind of lifestyle and simultaneously demoralizes religious people making them use more energy to stay optimistic and cheerful.

In other words, a just World probably helps people in getting them more religious. So how do you see lie detectors help legal systems worldwide? I think there can be more resolve to help victims of domestic violence. Not only that, but also as a kind of confirmation of the stories that enter the police, they can test all sides of a reported crime to find out who's telling the truth. This can help police greatly, IMO. It can also aid in avoiding putting innocent people behind bars. I really see no end for the benefits.

"Lie-detecting kiosks are coming to an airport near you"

Quote:
The system is called AVATAR, which is short for Automated Virtual Agent for Truth Assessments in Real Time, and is currently being tested by the Canadian Border Services Agency as well as the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. It’s been in development for some time, and the United States has already deployed AVATAR kiosks in “low risk” areas to get a sense of how they might handle the flow of people moving into and out of the United States at the border.

Quote:
“AVATAR has been tested in labs, in airports and at border crossing stations,” Elkins told the SDSU NewsCenter. “The system is fully ready for implementation to help stem the flow of contraband, thwart fleeing criminals, and detect potential terrorists and many other applications in the effort to secure international borders.”

Lie detection progresses! Hurray! Because truth serves the people, democracy and Human Rights (eventually)!

The USA - Iran Relations - Diplomacy plays out..

The USA - Iran diplomatic relations play out and I intend to follow them. By the template of the conflict of Israel - Palestine of transparency to the public, I hope for better progress if pres. Obama hasn't accomplished this already.

Let's see, premise 1, we want a peaceful World with content citizens in all countries, including USA and Iran (well, well, if not happy directly). This implies progress for Iran, political, economic and social, probably. Remember that Iran treats its women fairly well, they're ahead of many other countries.

Iran stands at difficult economic situation as it sponsors or is accused of sponsoring terrorism by Hezbollah and Hamas, that's trangression against international norms.

It is currently under sanctions for its assumed intentions to acquire a nuclear weapon, something that's strongly unacceptable by the international society under the Nuclear Proliferation Treaty that's set up to prevent exactly such.

Iran (USA is good, internationally they do most correctly these days):
* Sponsoring terrorism, Hezbollah and Hamas. They use XXX dollars on this and they suffer XXX dollars in sponsoring these people who the international society see as terrorists trying to harm Israel.
SOLVED! * They hold 4 US Americans (3 for trying to smuggle drugs and one for killing a nun? True?).
* They presumably, until otherwise confirmed, by IAEA, try to acquire a nuclear weapon.
* ...
* ...

- For this, given they hold the 4 citizens unfairly (drugs are serious felonies in a number of countries, like China) and the rest, they suffer serious sanctions. Update, 2016-01-17, Iran releases the U.S. Americans, 4+1, after negotiations and a swap for Iranians being held in USA. This is great news indeed! Hurray! For a more peaceful world!

In wanting progress for all, for a World of justice and peace and careers also in Iran, the obvious aim is to work to reduce the transgressions in return for greater freedom as country and to yet again being seen as a plain country of the civilized World.

How? This is to be worked out, but as of now, sanctions are exactly just and should remain until better news. Also, Iran holds only 80 Mn people. There are limits to what they are able to do. Therefore, given their size, they need India, China, Pakistan and Russia to make the most of the "work" or change in the World, whatever this is. Further, therefore, their aim should be peaceful because they aren't able to do that much regardless. They have only this one goal in sight, namely PEACE! So let's see how they move about in the World.
