My topic and a little bit about it...
We all wish to know the truth. For example, if someone is lying. Now we can tell with Facial action coding. With this not so new system, anyone can now tell another person's facial action. Facial acting coding is a system that describes facial movement based on an anatomical analysis a facial movement. It is not very hard to learn, but very easy. Anyways, The key to making FACS work are the muscles in your face. Like when the muscles at the end of your lips tighten and lift. Everyone knows that as smiling. The reason i picked this topic is because last year I saw a show called "Lie to Me." I found it very interesting knowing that you can tell someone's reaction or mood. At that time i didn't know if the method actually worked, but it does. On the show they used it to intervierw usual suspects. Now knowing that it works, makes me very happy knowing that we can know tell if a criminal. When i started learning this method it gave me a different perspective. Like, when i was watching "Dateline" NBC a man was being interviewed because he was being blamed for killing his wife. When they gave him the question, did you kill your wife? His forehead wrinkled, looked away many times, and you could barley noticed that he swallowed. Then said "No, why would I". He showed fear and shame. If he didn't kill her why was he scared. I think if he was telling the truth then he would of been sad :(.

"Description of Facial Action Coding". //Data face.com.// Data Face. n.d. Web. 3 May 2011. The main purpose of this website is to give a understanding of Description of Facial Action Coding. It is is a detailed, technical guide that explains how to categorize facial behaviors based on the muscles that produce them. This article is more about the facts then actually learning on how to do it. Its main points are **Facial Action Coding System (FACS) Manual**,What is Facial Action Coding System?, and How does one obtain FACS?. It was useful when it came to facts. So it is trust worthy.

"The Facial action coding system". //Machine Rereception Laborty.com.//N.D.Web. 12 May 2011. The articles main purpose explains the developement of automatic detector which enables fully automated FACS coding. So if you had enoght money tou can buy this program and download it to you PC, if your to lazy to learn it yourself. If anyone ever gets this program they would be put in front of a webcam and the computer will tell you your emotion. I don't know why anyone would get this program if you know your own emotion. Unless if we're a lazy/ wealthy phychotherapists or interviewer. So in the end it is'nt very helpful.
