The importance of being rational
First, a caveat: I don't claim to be a decent human being. I am a Media Studies major. I text in all caps. Just last week, in fact, I set my hair on fire.
But even in the face of these grave character flaws, I strive to be rational, a trait that is not prized enough by modern society. Fuck being earnest—earnestness is just, as P. J. O'Rourke so rightly said, stupidity sent to college. The importance of being reasonable, however, is paramount: if we can't reach conclusions from deliberate consideration, if we can't connect our beliefs to our reasons for belief, and our actions with our reasons for action, we are chickens without heads.
Too often, issues that are shaded grey are discussed in black and white terms. The argument over Voluntary Student Membership is a key example: to articulate it as a binary of compulsory or voluntary undermines the influences on and implications of the debate. Even worse than such total statements is hand-wringing, hysterical rhetoric. The New Zealand Union of Students' Associations were quite rightly mocked for their "desperate" press release that declared that "members of the press release" would "tonight be appalled" that the "extreme… Bill" had not been reconsidered. I understand the intended effect of emotive language, but this verges on being insulting.
The same issue arose at the tumultuous 'We Are The University' protest on Kelburn campus a fortnight ago. Call me heartless, but changes to the International Relations programme does not constitute "the death of tertiary education", and saying so undermines your point, alienates potential supporters, and makes it easier for your detractors to ignore, dismiss or rebut you. Moreover, the letter addressed to Vice-Chancellor Pat Walsh was, quite frankly, cringeworthy—petulant, sarcastic, and reeking of entitlement. I don't dispute that the lack of consultation with students on changes to the University is disturbing, but snarky repetitions of "Pat" do not convey this, and that the protest's organisers felt that this was an appropriate way of articulating these concerns—especially on behalf of other students—was acutely embarrassing.
Sometimes people confuse "discussion" with "sermon", "lecture", or "verbal assault," but it's easy to engage in reasonable dialogue, and doing so fosters constructive, rewarding, authoritative debate. Just be respectful of and open to new ideas; provide proof and justification; and concede to evidence that disproves your point. Your argument is never so powerful that it's not necessary to talk about it.
By the same token, it is important to recognise the limitations of your opinion. Above all, you need to come to terms with the fact that all your opinions, without exception, are framed by your own experience and understanding of the world. Being a student of Victoria University, you are likely to be a white, middle-class New Zealander, aged between 17 and 25—and by that definition, you cannot be a leading authority on China's economy or Michele Bachmann or the Israel-Palestine conflict. Not even if you hold a full online subscription to The New Yorker. It is of course vital to pay attention to international affairs, but fronting like an expert on issues that neither you nor I, by virtue of our position within the world, could ever hope to fully comprehend is misleading and presumptuous.
This is why we need to initiate a return to reason. Rationality does not preclude creativity or innovation: in fact, it reinforces their foundations. As one creative type, filmmaker Lars von Trier, noted—"if one devalues rationality, the world tends to fall apart", and I am deeply concerned about the world falling apart. It is so, so important that we articulate ourselves clearly and intelligently and reasonably; otherwise, we just look like dicks. And if I'm going to look like a dick, it won't be because I've made a blanket or overwrought statement that highlights the flaws in my logic. It will be because I've set my hair on fire.
Elle started out at Salient reviewing music. In 2010, she wrote features and Animal of The Week, which an informal poll revealed to be 40% of Victoria students' favourite part of the magazine. Alongside Uther Dean, she was co-editor for 2011. In 2012, she is chief features writer.
Bravo Elle! Bravo!

Front foot cover drive, four runs. Well played, E Hunt.
Dig it — especially your thoughts on the We Are The University protest. Definitely changed my thoughts a bit. Whatababe.
Hey Elle,
Thought I would post here before the page was filled with drooling fan-boys. Just wanted to express my surprise that you have this deep seated commitment to rationality. It really was not even slightly present when you addressed me on the board for last week's editorial.
Unless this is written with a supreme sense of irony that went over my head? For reference the gif. you posted here:
http://www.salient.org.nz/columns/editorial-mens/comment-page-1#comments
is a great example of your willingness to engage in reasoned discussion.
Elle Hunt says:
Shaun—always a pleasure to hear from you, and thanks for reading. You forfeited your right to engage in a rational discussion with me when you resorted to personal attacks on me and my co-editor Uther Dean; when you showed yourself to be immune to and unmoved by alternate viewpoints and arguments; and when it became rapidly apparent that your knowledge of Salient '11, which you are so critical of, was cursory at best. I will not display my "deep-seated commitment to rationality" when I am not treated with the same respect.
Alpha says:
^ BOOM!
Love this so much.
smackdown says:
shaun of the dead boring posts
Thats better!
Excellent Elle, truly top-class. See, we disagree but we are talking about WHY. I'm not sure it's quite fair to disqualify me from rational discussion just because I couched my concerns in some personal attacks. Also, I don't believe I made any personal attacks against you; in fact you complained that I was not recognising you at all.
For you to conclude that I was immune and unmoved by alternate view points surely you would have to see me actually presented with some. In fact, drawing that conclusion does not seem at all reasonable or rational.
I do have some questions about your opinion piece, though I will refrain from asking them if you still feel that I have forfeited my right to rational discussion. Please let me know when it is okay for someone to be other than cultishly supportive of you and Uther.
Shaun, I have no interest in conversing with you further.
Nicola Wood says:
Shaun I'm sure there are many people who are not "cultishly supportive" of Elle and Uther who are still less of a dick than you.
Read the first few comments on here. If I was a little more cynical I might think she was writing them herself.
Does it not bother anyone that as soon as someone disagrees they are shut out?
I agree with Shaun. Reading through the comments in the editorial he linked, I didn't see evidence of Shaun "…[resorting] to personal attacks on me and my co-editor Uther Dean…" or Shaun "…[showing himself] to be immune to and unmoved by alternate viewpoints and arguments…"
Well, I saw a little of that, but only AFTER his concerns were ignored. In fact after his concerns were ignored, Elle posted a .gif of herself flipping the bird. Two birds, actually.
It's not too late to retract your puerile behaviour and engage his opinion, Elle.
Still, kudos for this one. My favourite piece in this week's edition. Which is saying something because this week was the best yet.
Shaun, be quiet, no-one wants to talk to you. There are too many cool things to talk about without worrying about some entitled crybaby who dishes out insults with impunity then cries about "being shut out" when subject to the same.
Also cool article Elle I quite agree
Shaun. You are very annoying.
Kim Wheatley says:
While I don't entirely agree with all of We are the University's rhetoric, I take issue with your casual dismissal of them here Elle. We have a genuine attempt to engage students politically taking place on campuses around the country right now, and I think it's a genuinely exciting moment.
The 500 strong protest in Auckland was the headline story on stuff last night, generating the biggest bit of coverage (at the national level) that the opposition to the VSM bill has had since the beginning. I think this makes it pretty clear that direct action like this is potentially a far more effective way of gaining political traction than the slow, steady and 'rational' processes which our student associations have been attempting to engage in. This is particularly significant, because it's happening in spite of all the awful cliches about how apathetic we are supposed to be.
You claim to speak from the position of 'reason', but in this piece you make little attempt to engage with any of the (numerous) reasons why students are feeling alienated by the current university regime. Surely a reasoned debate would engage with these ideas, rather than simply dismiss them on the basis of one of their protest slogans?
I don't think We are the University mean their statement about the death of tertiary education to be taken literally, rather, it's a metaphor for the ways in which the institution is increasingly being run into the ground by neoliberal doctrine, managerialism, commercial imperatives, and the steady decline in govt. funding. These processes aren't 'disturbing', they're downright cynical and exploitative. We are currently attending a university where staff are too afraid to turn up to a protest because they are worried about losing their jobs. Pause for a moment and reflect on this. What's the value of your reasoned debate if you don't have the freedoms to adequately engage in it?
Also, you sound a lot like Ayn Rand here. Sure, reason has its uses, but people often behave irrationally. This isn't always bad, think of falling in love! You should watch Adam Curtis' latest doco, 'All Watched Over By Machines of Love Grace' for a nice little story about the dangers and limitations of pure reason. They sure came back to hurt Ayn Rand badly in the end anyway:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C17zbTTYVME
I don't believe I do dismiss We Are The University here. My only reference to them is my criticism of their overtly emotive, overblown rhetoric, and I stand by this. For example, an administrator's comment on their official Facebook page (of which you are an admin) includes "keep your own fuckin head down Joyce.. most students want it on a pike". This opinion piece is on the importance of articulating oneself clearly and reasonably in order to validate and strengthen one's point, not "the (numerous) reasons why students are feeling alienated by the current university regime"—which I could by no means do justice to in a 600-word opinion piece.
I would just like to express my support of this piece. Reasonable and rational discourse is too often forgone, in favour of emotive, hyperbolic claims made to further an agenda. Whilst I completely support the underlying message of the We are the University campaign, the tactics employed have only sought to distance students from the movement, rather than engage them. Good on you Elle for having the guts to point this out.
Also you guys should just ban "Shaun", seeing as his life obviously consists of making vindictive attacks that have little substance.
No. says:
i would like to express my total and utter rejection of this piece, and quite frankly, my disgust. Elle, i know you well enough, you have NO experience in student activism, you took no part in last week's protest, you've had nothing to do with We Are the University, and you have the audacity to give a healthy, burgeoning student movement advice? you claim to be a voice of rationality for 300 drooling irrational nutcases? how truly arrogant and conceited. then, in an irony that is astounding, you criticize student activists for campaigning on issues which they couldn't possibly hope to understand, when anyone who knows you will know that you have not a shred of experience with the subject you are attempting to address.
i have been horrified by some of the reactions to last week's protest, and this article typifies it. those students are out there fighting for the rights of all students to better quality, more accessible education, and all you lazy, self-righteous dicks can do is sit around thinking of different ways to appear intelligent and 'above that sort of thing' by criticizing them.
Elle, students are angry, they have tried dialogue with administrators, it has failed. militant demonstrations have driven some of the most important developments in human history. conversely, self-righteous Salient editors with inflated egos do nothing to help anyone.
Again—this opinion piece is emphatically NOT a commentary on or response to the We Are The University movement, beyond the fact (and it is, objectively, a fact) that its organisers could better articulate their points to both the wider student community and the University.
Hey No, you're not fighting for "all" students. You're fighting for the couple of hundred who turned up. I can fight my own battles, and felt ashamed at the way your protest represented students. DON'T claim to represent me.
oh big whop students have been angry since god cancelled adam and eve's stupid student services in da garden of eden cos they were rude. get a clue balloo the world is changing every day
didnt read kim wheatleys post was it about tv disko y/n
Sure, protests may or may not be effective or representative, depending on the issue and the circumstances, but they at the very least carry the voice of those who actually bother to turn up and voice their opinions (as opposed to some who, say, rely on some rich old people faraway in parliament to impose their will on others everywhere). Anyway, are you sure the movement did nothing but protest?
Even if that was the case, I'm not sure many of you can even imagine what it is like being prohibited, BY FUCKING LAW, from any kind of protest, demonstration or strike, period. Believe it or not, there are still a few countries that are actually like that (and there are some people in New Zealand who want the same).
Whatever it is, do not take your hard-won rights for granted; you may well live to regret it — that is, assuming you actually go on to realise what you have lost, possibly forever.
"So this is how liberty dies… with thunderous applause"
The Hawk of Liberty says:
Excellent work Elle.
Those who opt out from common sense and believe in entitlement to everything while being responsible for nothing will not enjoy your post so much as I did. What is important I think to remember here is that it is the same professional malcontents running the show here as all the other 'activist' groups on campus.
They are against the 'occupation' in Palestine (which it isn't), yet go and discuss on their page how effective an occupation is (re- pathetic sit in lunch outside someones office), completely at odds with what they preach given a different circumstance.
Hi Elle,
While I agree with you on several points, namely; that hyperbolic language can be alienating, and that personifying, in the form of Pat Walsh, the systemic issues that face the university elides the complexity of the problems that the institution faces, I find myself wondering (broadly), what do you mean by reason?
By that I mean, can we take reason and the possibility to engage in reasonable debate, as a right extended to all? Or does reason, as much as the "hand-wringing, hysterical rhetoric" that "reeks of entitlement", also remain the preserve of privilege? Who sets the rules for reasonable debate?
I think too, that by contrasting the protest with your call for reason, you do dismiss it; as unreasonable. The very language you've chosen to describe the protest casts it as an overtly, unseemly display of emotion in public, which appears to shore up deeply seated notions of proper conduct relating to notions of public/private. That is to say, words such as "hysterical" serve to reinforce normative ideas that suggest public must remain the domain of reason, against emotion (never mind the gender implications!). This of course, is patently false, as emotion and affect form a very large part of being in public; for example, talk show confessionals, or cheering a sports team on. I think that "hysterical" responses are often characterized so because the response is already, in some fashion, deemed to unreasonable. The outburst, emotion, perhaps comes from a desire to be heard, to be engaged with, and to dismiss it as unreasonable changes nothing. Perhaps asking "why are people so emotional about a given topic?" is an avenue to understanding.
Also, I must take issue with your claim that society lacks reason and rationality. Neoliberalism, the dominant ideological mode of the (western) moment, is founded on, and attempts to reproduce people as highly rational, individual beings, who must take care of themselves (see: the dismantling of the welfare state). This leaves little space for collective action, or understanding one's obligations to others. Also, I find that the rhetoric of reason, rationality, and logic is often used interchangeably, conflating and confusing these apparently "straightforward" notions. "Being reasonable" is often invoked in tandem with "common sense", which of course, is often "dominant sense" rather than common to all.
Returning to your discussion of the protest, one final point: by calling for reason, and invoking P J O'Rourke (a libertarian), you seem to (and I don't know whether you intended to do so) critique the student movement with the rhetoric that is bound to the structures that are the object of its critique. A strange circularity!
At any rate, it's not often I get worked up enough about articles to comment, so thank you for providing a space of reply. Your piece definitely engaged me!
1. "Rationality" < WISDOM
2. WISDOM + COMPASSION >> "Rationality"
3. Anna >>> Bustards of Buffoonery
Atlas says:
i do not see many similarities between elle and ayn rand
imagine being ayn rand
Elle,
Just to clarify, the organizers did make me an admin for the 'We Are The University' page when the group was first getting started, but I haven't been at all involved in organizing anything as part of the group. I certainly wasn't responsible for
the comment about putting Joyce's head on a pike, but as Anna so eloquently describes, these sorts of outbursts often go part and parcel with attempts to contest authority. I think the protest movement has actually done an excellent job (under the circumstances) to get so many people involved in on-campus politics, particularly given that they only formed a couple of months ago!
In say that, I do find the movement's emphasis on Walsh to be a bit of a waste of time. He's just a cypher. The structural, political and institutional arrangements of our universities are the real issues, so to focus on trying to sack him seems pointless. But of course these sorts of disagreements always happen in any attempt to radicalize, and as I said, I haven't been involved enough to try and convince anyone of this.
I can understand why you take issue with the kind of language that's used, but hopefully some of the responses on here will help to clarify why it happens, and furthermore how important it is to think critically about these sorts of issues. I'm not sure I understand what you were trying to imply in adding as a caveat that you are majoring in media studies. I think you should be proud to be a Media Studies major at VUW, I know I am!
I'd also like to make an observation re. your comments about the privileged position of white middle class students at Vic. I'm not sure whether you were talking about the protest specifically, or the university populace more generally, but either way I find this statement a little bit problematic, given that a significant proportion of university students (and therefore your own readership) do not fall into either of these categories (race/class).
I'm reminded of Robbie Shilliam's wonderful talk at the first 'We are the University' meeting, where he pointed out that the university has only recently been a space that has been accessible to those who do not come from privileged positions (ie. those who were not male/white/straight/rich). It is vital that we do not take the NZ university's (relatively) accessible nature for granted, particularly in light of the discrimination inherent in the closure of Gender & Women's studies, and also because of the fact that entry requirements for tertiary education are gradually being tightened up in a manner that disproportionately affects Maori and Pacific island students, as well as working class students more generally. These are both things which (in my view, anyway) should be part of 'We are the University's' orbit of concerns.
Finally, thanks to most of the people on this comments thread (but not Smackdown) for engaging in what has been a very thoughtful discussion.
Smackdown, you sound sad. I think you need some TV Disko love:
http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=277035402311843&set=a.162765490405502.45110.162764200405631&type=1
On the Ayn Rand point, her personal philosophy, objectivism ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Objectivism_(Ayn_Rand) ), was all about the merits of pure reason. That Elle cites the libertarian O'Rourke (whose name even has a Randian resonance), is the only clue I have to go on as far as her politics are concerned. As Adam Curtis so neatly outlines in the doco I linked to earlier, objectivism paved the way for much of contemporary libertarian, and neoliberal doctrine, so you can understand why I'd make the connection.
Also, I retract my statement about love being irrational:

Campaign for Vermont has been fighting for YOU in Montpelier; fighting for an accountable and transparent government, a sustainable state budget, and an affordable quality of life. While the legislature has finally listened to warnings about the growth in state spending, property taxes are still out of control.
Backers of Act 46, the "massive" school governance consolidation law that promised to save taxpayers money, have said it will only "bend the cost curve." Translation: your property taxes are still going up! In fact, members of the State Board of Education (who are responsible for implementing the law) said earlier this year that Act 46 will NOT save taxpayers money.
It's time for a real property tax solution, one that won't take decades to implement but will generate real savings for Vermonters. Our plan to re-energize Vermont's public education system could create $350 million in property tax relief, re-invest in our children's futures, and generate real economic benefits for our state.
But, this plan won't happen by itself. It takes hard work, well-researched policy recommendations, and thoughtful lobbying of our legislative leaders to enact change. Help support these efforts by giving $10 today to help us reduce Vermont's property tax burden.
Last week, Legislative leaders and the Governor came to an agreement over the budget that guarantees $13 million in savings for property taxpayers by forcing local school districts to find the savings through contract negotiations or another means. This is somewhat similar to the Governor's initial budget proposal that was rejected by the Legislature in January that would have forced school districts to level fund. The compromise also re-opens teacher healthcare contracts in two years to allow for a debate about moving to a statewide contract for teacher's healthcare plans. These savings represent about 1% of the homestead property tax burden in the state – less than $50 to the average family.


Prairie Dog Boring Equipment has sold some machines recently in the Texas Hill Country. Most of the work they are used for are 1″ or so service lines. We've been able to bore the pilot holes fairly easily and have developed a new pilot bit for harder soils and soft rock like sandstone and limestone. Some of our customers would like to be able to make larger holes now that we have the pilot bit working so well. Our traditional back reamers haven't been as fast as we would like them to be so we've been trying to change some things up. Vibration was one of the biggest problems and once we figured out how to settle that down the cutting went a lot faster as well.
It took about 5 minutes to back ream through this 10″ thick piece of concrete with this new style. That's about a 20 minute improvement over our first attempt.
Field trials in Lakeway Texas in Hill Country limestone are next. Thanks to Lakeway MUD for sticking with us.
Prairie Dog Boring Equipment provides the best value in utility boring. Nothing is going to work perfectly in all conditions but we offer the most economical and versatile available on the market. We listen to our customer's needs and try to find ways to meet them and in doing so we increase our value and versatility.

I am SO SO SO tired of this liquid diet phase. I'm supposed to be on a liquid diet only until Wednesday (2 week mark of surgery) but tonight, I caved and made some egg salad and weighed out 2oz. It was delicious. Granted, I took 20 minutes to eat it to make sure I got it good and smooth but still....it was yummy. Starting on Wednesday, I can start to substitute some of my protein shake with some other type of protein through soft, pureed, diced, ground food. I can have eggs, tuna, yogurt, beans, etc.
In other news. I've lost 21 lbs. Say WHAT? Yeh, that's right. That's 12 lbs before surgery and so far 9 lbs after surgery. It hasn't even been 2 weeks so I will take that and run with it for sure. I also did my measurements and have lost a few inches.
I am looking forward to my one month appointment and hopefully to be cleared for more strenuous exercise. There is a new boxing club in Ballantyne and I am really looking forward to checking it out. It's exactly what I've been looking for. They have 48 heavy bags and then they classes that are basically just formed around hitting and kicking the bag. Love it.
Umm. I think that's all. Except. Is anyone watching Dancing with the Stars? I don't normally but I just randomly decided to watch it tonight. Wynonna Judd needs to go home. This is a dancing show. That was a train wreck.
Anyway. Today was my first day back at work and it was pretty rough. We are moving offices this week and I packed all my stuff before I took time off. Tomorrow will probably be worse because I've already done everything I need to. Wednesday should be better though.

Akron pit bull owner charged after March attacks
Emily Mills Beacon Journal/Ohio.com @EmilyMills818
An Akron woman has been charged with 21 misdemeanors related to her pit bulls after authorities say the dogs bit several people.
Diane Yanke, 58, appeared Tuesday in Akron Municipal Court for a pretrial hearing on charges that include five counts of having vicious dogs and three counts of serious physical harm/dog.
She also is accused of not having insurance for the dogs, not having them secured or vaccinated and operating a kennel.
Akron Municipal Court records show Yanke has faced dog-related charges three other times since September. She was convicted twice and another case was dismissed.
A September incident on Archwood Avenue led to a vicious dog charge and five more pit bull-related charges. Four of the pit bull charges were dismissed, but Yanke, who pleaded no contest, was found guilty on charges of having a vicious dog and unsecured pit bull. She was sentenced in October to 180 days in jail, with all 180 days suspended, and ordered to obey all laws for one year.
Less than three months after the September incident came another incident on Dec. 13 on Merton Avenue in East Akron, leading to four more pit bull-related charges.
In February, Yanke was found guilty of having an unsecured pit bull in that case. She was sentenced to 60 days in jail, with all 60 days suspended, and ordered to obey all laws for a year and comply with all laws related to pit bulls.
Twelve days after Yanke pleaded guilty in that case, three dogs attacked four people. The 21 current charges Yanke faces stem from those two March 4 incidents.
The dogs knocked a 36-year-old Norton woman down as she was getting out of her van in the 800 block of Reed Avenue in East Akron and bit her along both sides of her body, from her torso to her feet. A 32-year-old Akron man heard the woman screaming and tried to fight off the dogs. He was bitten numerous times on the left arm.
The dogs then bit a 38-year-old Akron mail carrier on the leg, leaving puncture marks on his pants, but he didn't believe the dogs bit his leg. He sprayed the dogs with pepper spray, and they ran away.
The dogs also bit a 57-year-old Akron woman walking on Milton Street on the head, arms and legs. A group of men driving by stopped to help her and hit the dogs with sticks to get them off her.
The man and woman from the first incident and the woman from the second incident were taken to Summa Akron City Hospital, all with extensive injuries from the attacks.
Police said the same three dogs were involved in both incidents. The dogs were eventually found in an East Akron backyard and taken by the animal warden. A city of Akron spokeswoman said Summit County Animal Control euthanized the animals.
Several people who were attacked by the dogs attended Tuesday's hearing.
Sarah Friddle, who was bitten by one of the dogs, told News 5 Cleveland that Yanke has been given too many chances.
"Essentially doggie probation has done no good and it could have been so much worse," she said. "It could have been a child that was killed. I feel all of these attacks could have been prevented if the court had given any sort of real punishment in the past."
A pretrial hearing is scheduled for 10 a.m. April 26 before Judge Jerry Larson.
If Yanke, who indicated she is hiring an attorney, is convicted again, Akron City Prosecutor Gertrude Wilms told News Channel 5 prosecutors may consider an additional recommendation of five years' probation with the stipulation that Yanke not be allowed to have pets during that time.

Joshua 11
Joshua 11 New International Version (NIV)
Northern Kings Defeated
11 When Jabin king of Hazor heard of this, he sent word to Jobab king of Madon, to the kings of Shimron and Akshaph, 2 and to the northern kings who were in the mountains, in the Arabah south of Kinnereth, in the western foothills and in Naphoth Dor on the west; 3 to the Canaanites in the east and west; to the Amorites, Hittites, Perizzites and Jebusites in the hill country; and to the Hivites below Hermon in the region of Mizpah. 4 They came out with all their troops and a large number of horses and chariots—a huge army, as numerous as the sand on the seashore. 5 All these kings joined forces and made camp together at the Waters of Merom to fight against Israel.
6 The Lord said to Joshua, "Do not be afraid of them, because by this time tomorrow I will hand all of them, slain, over to Israel. You are to hamstring their horses and burn their chariots."
7 So Joshua and his whole army came against them suddenly at the Waters of Merom and attacked them, 8 and the Lord gave them into the hand of Israel. They defeated them and pursued them all the way to Greater Sidon, to Misrephoth Maim, and to the Valley of Mizpah on the east, until no survivors were left. 9 Joshua did to them as the Lord had directed: He hamstrung their horses and burned their chariots.
10 At that time Joshua turned back and captured Hazor and put its king to the sword. (Hazor had been the head of all these kingdoms.) 11 Everyone in it they put to the sword. They totally destroyed[a] them, not sparing anyone that breathed, and he burned Hazor itself.
12 Joshua took all these royal cities and their kings and put them to the sword. He totally destroyed them, as Moses the servant of the Lord had commanded. 13 Yet Israel did not burn any of the cities built on their mounds—except Hazor, which Joshua burned. 14 The Israelites carried off for themselves all the plunder and livestock of these cities, but all the people they put to the sword until they completely destroyed them, not sparing anyone that breathed. 15 As the Lord commanded his servant Moses, so Moses commanded Joshua, and Joshua did it; he left nothing undone of all that the Lord commanded Moses.
16 So Joshua took this entire land: the hill country, all the Negev, the whole region of Goshen, the western foothills, the Arabah and the mountains of Israel with their foothills, 17 from Mount Halak, which rises toward Seir, to Baal Gad in the Valley of Lebanon below Mount Hermon. He captured all their kings and put them to death. 18 Joshua waged war against all these kings for a long time. 19 Except for the Hivites living in Gibeon, not one city made a treaty of peace with the Israelites, who took them all in battle. 20 For it was the Lord himself who hardened their hearts to wage war against Israel, so that he might destroy them totally, exterminating them without mercy, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
21 At that time Joshua went and destroyed the Anakites from the hill country: from Hebron, Debir and Anab, from all the hill country of Judah, and from all the hill country of Israel. Joshua totally destroyed them and their towns. 22 No Anakites were left in Israelite territory; only in Gaza, Gath and Ashdod did any survive.
23 So Joshua took the entire land, just as the Lord had directed Moses, and he gave it as an inheritance to Israel according to their tribal divisions. Then the land had rest from war.
Joshua 11:11 The Hebrew term refers to the irrevocable giving over of things or persons to the Lord, often by totally destroying them; also in verses 12, 20 and 21.

Jeremiah in Prison
37 Zedekiah son of Josiah was made king of Judah by Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon; he reigned in place of Jehoiachin[a] son of Jehoiakim. 2 Neither he nor his attendants nor the people of the land paid any attention to the words the Lord had spoken through Jeremiah the prophet.
3 King Zedekiah, however, sent Jehukal son of Shelemiah with the priest Zephaniah son of Maaseiah to Jeremiah the prophet with this message: "Please pray to the Lord our God for us."
4 Now Jeremiah was free to come and go among the people, for he had not yet been put in prison. 5 Pharaoh's army had marched out of Egypt, and when the Babylonians[b] who were besieging Jerusalem heard the report about them, they withdrew from Jerusalem.
6 Then the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah the prophet: 7 "This is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says: Tell the king of Judah, who sent you to inquire of me, 'Pharaoh's army, which has marched out to support you, will go back to its own land, to Egypt. 8 Then the Babylonians will return and attack this city; they will capture it and burn it down.'
9 "This is what the Lord says: Do not deceive yourselves, thinking, 'The Babylonians will surely leave us.' They will not! 10 Even if you were to defeat the entire Babylonian[c] army that is attacking you and only wounded men were left in their tents, they would come out and burn this city down."
11 After the Babylonian army had withdrawn from Jerusalem because of Pharaoh's army, 12 Jeremiah started to leave the city to go to the territory of Benjamin to get his share of the property among the people there. 13 But when he reached the Benjamin Gate, the captain of the guard, whose name was Irijah son of Shelemiah, the son of Hananiah, arrested him and said, "You are deserting to the Babylonians!"
14 "That's not true!" Jeremiah said. "I am not deserting to the Babylonians." But Irijah would not listen to him; instead, he arrested Jeremiah and brought him to the officials. 15 They were angry with Jeremiah and had him beaten and imprisoned in the house of Jonathan the secretary, which they had made into a prison.
16 Jeremiah was put into a vaulted cell in a dungeon, where he remained a long time. 17 Then King Zedekiah sent for him and had him brought to the palace, where he asked him privately, "Is there any word from the Lord?"
"Yes," Jeremiah replied, "you will be delivered into the hands of the king of Babylon."
18 Then Jeremiah said to King Zedekiah, "What crime have I committed against you or your attendants or this people, that you have put me in prison? 19 Where are your prophets who prophesied to you, 'The king of Babylon will not attack you or this land'? 20 But now, my lord the king, please listen. Let me bring my petition before you: Do not send me back to the house of Jonathan the secretary, or I will die there."
21 King Zedekiah then gave orders for Jeremiah to be placed in the courtyard of the guard and given a loaf of bread from the street of the bakers each day until all the bread in the city was gone. So Jeremiah remained in the courtyard of the guard.

God's Righteous Judgment
2 You, therefore, have no excuse, you who pass judgment on someone else, for at whatever point you judge another, you are condemning yourself, because you who pass judgment do the same things. 2 Now we know that God's judgment against those who do such things is based on truth. 3 So when you, a mere human being, pass judgment on them and yet do the same things, do you think you will escape God's judgment? 4 Or do you show contempt for the riches of his kindness, forbearance and patience, not realizing that God's kindness is intended to lead you to repentance?
5 But because of your stubbornness and your unrepentant heart, you are storing up wrath against yourself for the day of God's wrath, when his righteous judgment will be revealed. 6 God "will repay each person according to what they have done."[a] 7 To those who by persistence in doing good seek glory, honor and immortality, he will give eternal life. 8 But for those who are self-seeking and who reject the truth and follow evil, there will be wrath and anger. 9 There will be trouble and distress for every human being who does evil: first for the Jew, then for the Gentile; 10 but glory, honor and peace for everyone who does good: first for the Jew, then for the Gentile. 11 For God does not show favoritism.
12 All who sin apart from the law will also perish apart from the law, and all who sin under the law will be judged by the law. 13 For it is not those who hear the law who are righteous in God's sight, but it is those who obey the law who will be declared righteous. 14 (Indeed, when Gentiles, who do not have the law, do by nature things required by the law, they are a law for themselves, even though they do not have the law. 15 They show that the requirements of the law are written on their hearts, their consciences also bearing witness, and their thoughts sometimes accusing them and at other times even defending them.) 16 This will take place on the day when God judges people's secrets through Jesus Christ, as my gospel declares.
The Jews and the Law
17 Now you, if you call yourself a Jew; if you rely on the law and boast in God; 18 if you know his will and approve of what is superior because you are instructed by the law; 19 if you are convinced that you are a guide for the blind, a light for those who are in the dark, 20 an instructor of the foolish, a teacher of little children, because you have in the law the embodiment of knowledge and truth— 21 you, then, who teach others, do you not teach yourself? You who preach against stealing, do you steal? 22 You who say that people should not commit adultery, do you commit adultery? You who abhor idols, do you rob temples? 23 You who boast in the law, do you dishonor God by breaking the law? 24 As it is written: "God's name is blasphemed among the Gentiles because of you."[b]
25 Circumcision has value if you observe the law, but if you break the law, you have become as though you had not been circumcised. 26 So then, if those who are not circumcised keep the law's requirements, will they not be regarded as though they were circumcised? 27 The one who is not circumcised physically and yet obeys the law will condemn you who, even though you have the[c] written code and circumcision, are a lawbreaker.
28 A person is not a Jew who is one only outwardly, nor is circumcision merely outward and physical. 29 No, a person is a Jew who is one inwardly; and circumcision is circumcision of the heart, by the Spirit, not by the written code. Such a person's praise is not from other people, but from God.

Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is refusing to release rapper 21 Savage on bond after he was arrested Sunday for allegedly overstaying his visa, his lawyer said Monday.
The rapper, whose legal name is Shayaa Bin Abraham-Joseph, was arrested by ICE on allegations that he is a citizen of the United Kingdom who overstayed his visa.
"Based upon incorrect information about prior criminal charges and now refusing to release him on bond of any amount, despite the fact that he has a pending U-Visa application (as the victim of crime) with USCIS, and that he has relief from removal available to him," attorney Charles H. Kuck said in a statement obtained by Rolling Stone.
Kuck also said that 21 Savage "has never hidden his immigration status from the US government" and is being unfairly targeted.
"As a minor, his family overstayed their work visas, and he, like almost two million other children, was left without legal status through no fault of his own," Kuck said.
"This is a civil law violation, and the continued detention of Mr. Abraham-Joseph serves no other purpose than to unnecessarily punish him and try to intimidate him into giving up his right to fight to remain in the United States."
Kuck added that 21 Savage was neither a flight risk nor a danger to the Atlanta community, adding that "in fact, his contributions to local communities and schools that he grew up in are examples of the type of immigrant we want in America."
"We and he will fight for his release, for his family, and his right to remain in our country. No one would expect less from him," Kuck said.
ICE spokesman Bryan Cox has said that 21 Savage was convicted on felony drug charges in 2014.
The U visa Kuck says the rapper applied for is given to 10,000 people each year.
If deported, 21 Savage could potentially be banned from reentering the country for 10 years.

Early spring quarter, a Little Free Library was placed in the Julian A. McPhee University Union. Little Free Library is a free book exchange in which individuals may place or remove a book at any time, free of charge. The library was implemented by the University Union Advisory Board (UUAB), one of three branches of ASI Student Government which works to enhance student experiences in the UU, Cal Poly Recreation Center, and Cal Poly Sports Complex. The library was implemented with three goals in mind: to promote mental health and self-care, to foster a sense of community, and to give students an alternative pastime.
The Little Free Library is located next to Chumash Auditorium, and everyone is welcome to take or contribute books as they please. The library will also be added to a world map of all existing Little Free Libraries. Stop by and grab a book or share one of your favorite books with someone by adding it to the library!
Interested in becoming a member of the UUAB? The branch is recruiting for members to represent the College of Science and Mathematics, College of Engineering, College of Agriculture, Food and Environmental Sciences, and Orfalea College of Business.

UGA Athletic Board Spring Meeting Highlights – Day One
Sports No Comments
Greg McGarity
ST. SIMONS ISLAND, Ga. — Reports by University of Georgia President Jere W. Morehead, J. Reid Parker Director of Athletics Greg McGarity, and an update on current and future facilities projects highlighted the first day of the UGA Athletic Association Board of Directors annual spring meeting here Thursday.
Also on the first-day agenda was a special presentation, led by Deputy Director for Athletics Darrice Griffin, which described in detail the key objectives in the areas of student-athlete experience, compliance, community and academic success. Also presenting were Executive Associate AD Will Lawler (Compliance) and Deputy AD Magdi El Shahawy (Academics and Student Development).
In his report, McGarity called attention to a number of athletic successes in the past year, some of which remain ongoing in post-season competition. In particular:
• The baseball team, under head coach Scott Stricklin, is headed toward its second straight NCAA Tournament berth.
• Other teams whose seasons are still in progress include the men's golf, and track & field squads.
• Also praised by McGarity for their successes were the Gymnastics, Equestrian, Football, Women's Tennis and Softball teams, as well as the Men's Basketball program, whose highly-rated recruiting class has generated much excitement in advance of the 2019-20 season.
Deputy Director for Operations Josh Brooks updated the Board on three facility projects including:
• The UGA Equestrian complex in Bishop, Ga., which will include meeting, sports medicine and locker rooms, as well as coaches' offices, is projected for a September 2019 completion.
• Construction of the new grandstand at the Magill Tennis Complex has begun. Completion of this project is scheduled for February of 2020.
• UGA is currently in the midst of the schematic and conceptual design phase of the Butts-Mehre expansion and renovation project.
Retired UGA professor Bill Barstow gave a presentation on the ''SilverDawgs,'' a year-old hospitality group that he helped organized and still directs. The group is comprised mostly from UGA's chapter of the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute (OLLI), and provides assistance to visitors at various on-campus events, including home football games, UGA commencement and other athletic contests. Barstow said the group — the idea of which was borne from a similar group that received visitors at the 2017 UGA football game at Notre Dame — had grown from its initial membership of 30 to the current total of 100 for the 2019 football season.
In other first-day Board activity, Faculty Athletics Representative David Shipley presented the academic report. His remarks included the following highlights:
• The men's cross country squad compiled a 3.44 GPA for Spring semester, the highest among all Bulldog athletic teams.
• The Georgia Volleyball and Men's Basketball programs received public recognition for having Academic Progress Rates (APR) that placed them among the top 10 percent nationally for their sports.
• Ninety-seven student-athletes received their degrees at Spring commencement on May 10.
Day two of the annual meeting on Friday will include reports from the Student Wellness Committee, the board's student representatives and a review of the fiscal year 2020 budget, as well as a fundraising update from Deputy AD Matt Borman.

The Madibaz football team kicked off their Varsity Football campaign with a well-executed goalless draw against Vaal University of Technology at the Isak Steyl Stadium in Vanderbijlpark on Monday night.
"We played at a high intensity and we created opportunities. It was a strong opening for us," said Madibaz football manager Mark Tommy.
According to him, the Port Elizabeth side started the 10-week national tournament very well.
He praised the Madibaz's on-field organisation and said they had been more strategic and tactical in their approach.
"We definitely played to our strengths as a unit, making some good team play," said Tommy.
"Our structure was more organised, we were more technical and we managed to wear them down as a team and take control."
He said it was this ability to play as a unit as well as their fitness levels that would stand the Madibaz in good stead for the tournament.
"Our preparation has gone extremely well and we are hoping to make an impact over the coming weeks.
"The objective now is to pull out all the stops during the pool matches and get through to the semi-finals."
In their opening match, Tommy said the visitors were able to dominate their opponents for the first 15 minutes, during which time a goal was disallowed for offside.
However, VUT came back strongly to go on the offensive until half-time, whereafter a resurgent Madibaz again took charge.
Tommy said that star striker Kieran Koert impressed until he was substituted for an injury to his shoulder.
Although unable to find the back of the net, teammate Cloudius Sagandira was named Samsung Super Striker.
"Their determination just shows that they are ready to fight for a top spot in this tournament," said Tommy, who felt the competition would be very interesting this year.
He said Tuks, who are on the hunt for a hat-trick, were possibly the side to watch.
Tommy said tournament newcomers Walter Sisulu University had also done the Eastern Cape proud, beating North-West University 3-2 in their debut encounter.
In round two next Monday, the Madibaz take on the University of the Witwatersrand at the Wits Stadium in Johannesburg at 6pm.

All condensed phases (solids and liquids) have interfaces where they are in contact with other phases. Materials such as ceramics, metals and rocks comprise a multitude of grains of a single phase or of several different phases that are connected through a three-dimensional network of interfaces. Although the interfaces usually occupy only a negligible fraction of the overall volume, they control many of the material's physical properties such as mechanical strength, toughness, electrical conductivity, magnetic susceptibility, effective diffusivities, corrosion resistance and many more.
We refer to an aggregate of crystals of a single phase as a 'polycrystal'. A composite material that is composed of grains of different phases is referred to as a 'polyphase aggregate'. An interface, where two crystals of the same phase that only differ in their lattice orientations are in contact, is referred to as a 'grain boundary'. An interface, where two different phases meet, constitutes a 'phase boundary'. Solid–liquid, solid–vapour and liquid–vapour interfaces as well as interfaces between two different solids are phase boundaries. The topology and geometry of the grain- and phase-boundary network is controlled by a compromise between micro-structural equilibrium and space filling. Furthermore, the network of interfaces may evolve, e.g. under elevated temperatures. In the absence of mineral reactions and deformation, this evolution is driven by the reduction of the free energy associated with interfaces. Both grain and phase boundaries are essentially two-dimensional objects. For example, the generally employed formulation of the diffusion equation that approximates diffusion along an interface involves two spatial coordinates. The third dimension, which is perpendicular to the interface, is represented by a small characteristic width, which may be only a few inter-atomic distances. The effective diffusion coefficient that enters into the surface diffusion equation depends on the width of the surface.
The microstructures and textures observed in rocks exhibit an overwhelming diversity (Vernon, 2004). They bear important information on rock formation and have significant control over bulk-rock properties and behaviour. Interfaces are the locations where both reactions and chemical mass transfer take place, and they are thus central in mediating mineral reactions, rock alteration and deformation.Furthermore, epitaxial and topotaxial orientation relations are established at interfaces (see Habler and Griffths, 2017, this volume).
In this chapter we introduce the phenomenological treatment of interfaces. The concepts of interfacial energy and surface tension are discussed and conditions for micro-structural equilibrium are derived. Thereafter, capillary force driven interface motions including coarsening and grain-growth are addressed. We investigate thermodynamic equilibrium at curved interfaces and its implication for the evolution of heterogeneous systems. Finally, we treat some specific properties and the motion of interfaces in crystalline materials. Although most of the considerations made in this chapter are of a general nature, the applications we have in mind are related to minerals and rocks.

Cinderella: Fables Are Forever
Cinderella: Fables Are Forever #3 Review
Dorothy and Cinderella's history revealed.
By Joey Esposito
Don't let the buddy-buddy cover fool you; this latest issue of Cinderella shows no love lost between Cindy and her #1 adversary, Dorothy Gale. Writer Chris Roberson goes to town establishing the chronological history of the two Fable super-spies, juxtaposing their previous meetings in the past with Cindy and Ivan's quest to hunt down the mysterious "Spider" after the dying Madame Meng leaves them a clue.
The issue is primarily a narration peace that jumps from one location to the next in true James Bond fashion, but Roberson manages to disperse little character moments throughout that really add to the enjoyment. One in particular comes in a single panel, when Roberson explains what happened to Dorothy's former companions from Oz. It's a stellar moment that is heartbreaking for Cowardly Lion and Tin Woodsman, but defining for Dorothy.
McManus continues his detailed art duties, painlessly adapting to any backdrop that Roberson tosses his way. Issue #3 feels as though he's gotten to stretch his character design muscles for this series a bit, as we get to see a broader spectrum. There's not only the Chiss from last issue, but also new human Fables that travel beyond the typical human body shape.
I've been loving every second of Fables Are Forever, and unless you're lacking a heart like the Tin Woodsman, you should be too.

The below table is a snapshot of the costs charged by FX specialists and banks for CAD/PHP International Money Transfers. Costs are calculated against the amount when CAD is converted to PHP at mid-rate.
Right now the CAD/PHP interbank exchange rate is 38.6655. It's also called the mid-market rate or just the mid-rate and is the rate that banks use when trading large amounts of foreign currencies with one another.
It's the reference rate we use to calculate how much you are being charged to convert Philippine Peso to Canadian Dollar.
This CAD/PHP Converter calculates equivalent Canadian Dollar to Philippine Peso amounts at the market mid-rate. You can also enter your own rates to find out the percentage difference to the latest market rates you are being charged.
The below table shows the historic variation in the CAD/PHP exchange rate over the last 10 years. The percentage change is the difference from the date shown to present. This lets you decide if the current rate is in your favour. You can also view our various charts of CAD versus other currencies : CAD historical charts.
Why can't I just get the CAD/PHP market rate I see on Google or in the Media?
The CAD/PHP mid-rate is the rate you will see Quoted on Google or the News, nobody except the largest banks and businesses can get exchange rates close to this mid-rate. It is actually just the theoretical half-way point (hence mid-rate) between the last rate at which the CAD / PHP was traded (bought or sold) in the international markets.
The closer your final exchange rate is to the market CAD/PHP midrate the better deal you are getting.
Know the latest CAD/PHP market mid-rate. The closer your final exchange rate is to this real market rate the better deal you are getting. You should also judge how the current rate compares to the historic rate over the past 10 years.
So it follows that if you are determining the best time to transact, in this case the CAD vs PHP, you should pay attention to both Canadian Dollar and Philippine Peso news and forecasts.


Compensation is about more than just salary. When negotiating with an employer, it's important to take other factors into consideration: such as benefits, vacation and leave time, and opportunities for flexible scheduling. Each of these elements contributes to the total package of compensation in a unique and important way.
Lately, it seems that the topic of paid family leave has been surfacing more and more as folks debate how the current state of related laws and programs could change, expand, or shift in the future. Presidential candidates, especially Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton, have weighed in on the matter, explaining that they'd like to expand these benefits for workers in the future.
Already though, we're starting to see some companies making changes. And, as more organizations expand their family leave benefits, and many workers voice their wholehearted approval of the news, it will become increasingly important for other organizations to follow suit if they wish to attract top talent. Let's take a closer look at a few companies that have recently announced changes.
Scripps Networks Interactive's media portfolio includes television and internet brands such as HGTV, Food Network, and Travel Channel, just to name a few. The company is headquartered in Knoxville Tennessee and has offices all over the U.S., and in London and Singapore. Just a few days ago, the company announced that they would be making some changes to their benefits. Here are a few highlights of the new policy.
12 weeks paid time off for maternity and adoption leave.
3 weeks paid time off for non-primary care givers, legal guardians, and foster parents.
A phased option for returning to work after adoption or maternity leave.
Other initiatives like private mother's rooms, a coordinator to help navigate the programs and options, reserved parking for expectant mothers, etc.
New parents, or employees who need to care for a sick family member, are able to take up to eight weeks of paid leave.
Maternity leave is offered for 14 weeks, with additional time available for medical reasons.
These changes were real improvements to old policies which only allowed six weeks leave for new mothers, and no leave at all for adoptive parents or employees with a family member who required care.
Etsy.com is an online marketplace for buying and selling unique and creative goods and products. With more than a million sellers, and 25 million buyers, it's not hard to see why this company, founded in 2005, boasted over $2 billion gross merchandise sales in 2015.
Back in March, Etsy announced that they were expanding their paid family leave policy on the same day that the financial service corporation Fidelity Investments also proclaimed they were making similar changes. Etsy's new parental leave program extends to all of their employees, men and women, regardless of their family circumstances.
Many other companies have also expanded their family leave benefits. Netflix Inc, for example, announced last year that they'd offer up to 12 months of paid time off for new parents, even allowing hourly workers several months paid leave as well, which is highly uncommon. It will be interesting to continue to observe how these decisions around the expansion of family leave benefits, made by individual companies, will impact larger national trends going forward.
Does your company offer family leave benefits? We want to hear from you! Leave a comment or join the discussion on Twitter.

El área fusiforme de las caras, FFA (por sus siglas en inglés: Fusiform face area) es el principal sector del sistema visual del humano que está especializada para el reconocimiento facial. Está localizada en la corteza cerebral temporal inferior (TI), en la circunvolución llamada giro fusiforme (área 37 de Brodmann).

Historia
El área FFA humana fue descrita primero por Justine Sergent en 1992
y nombrado más adelante por Nancy Kanwisher
en 1997, quien propuso que la existencia de la FFA era evidencia para la especificidad del dominio en el sistema visual.

Los psicólogos debaten hoy si el área FFA se activa mediante rostros por causa de la evolución o por causa de experiencias.
En 2017 Nancy Kanwisher propuso que el área FFA se dedica exclusivamente al procesamiento de rostro.
En 2017 Isabel Gauthier ofrece una explicación de cómo la FFA se vuelve selectiva para los rostros en la mayoría de las personas mediante la experiencia (pericia).
Sostiene que el área FFA, es una parte crítica de una red que, es importante para individualizar objetos que son visualmente similares (porque comparten una configuración de partes en común).

Estructura
El "área de rostro" FFA está localizada dentro de la red neuronal llamada corriente ventral ubicada en la superficie ventral del lóbulo temporal en la región lateral del giro fusiforme.

El área FFA es lateral y externa al "área de lugar"  situada en el parahipocampo. La FFA muestra una cierta lateralización, usualmente siendo más grande en el hemisferio derecho.

Los estudios han demostrado recientemente que el área FFA se forma de racimos funcionales que están en una escala espacial más fina de lo que las anteriores investigaciones han medido.

El área FFA continúa siendo investigada en humanos, usando la tomografía por emisión de positrones (TEP), de imágenes de resonancia magnética funcional (RMNf). Usualmente, un participante de estas pruebas visualiza imágenes de caras, objetos, lugares, cuerpos, caras confusas, objetos confusos, lugares confusos y cuerpos confusos a esto se le denomina un localizador funcional.
La comparación de la respuesta neural entre caras y caras confusas, revelará áreas que responden al rostro; mientras que al comparar la activación cortical entre rostros y objetos, se revelarán áreas que  son
selectivas al rostro.

Función

El área FFA humana  fue descrita en 1992
y nombrada como FFA más adelante en 1997, cuando se propuso que la  existencia misma del área FFA sea evidencia para la especificidad de este dominio dentro del sistema visual.

El área FFA está formada de racimos funcionales, que están en una escala espacial muy fina.
La estimulación eléctrica de estos racimos funcionales, distorsiona selectivamente  la percepción de la cara, y este es el apoyo causal al papel de estos racimos funcionales en la percepción de la imagen facial.

Si bien generalmente se acuerda que el área FFA responde más a las caras que a la mayoría de las otras imágenes, hay debate acerca de si el FFA se dedica exclusivamente al procesamiento de rostro o si participa también en el procesamiento de otros objetos.

La hipótesis de la experiencia (pericia), defendida por Gauthier y otros, ofrece una explicación de cómo la FFA se vuelve selectiva para los rostros en la mayoría de las personas.
La hipótesis de la experiencia sugiere que el área FFA, es una parte crítica de una red que, es importante para individualizar objetos que son visualmente similares (porque comparten una configuración de partes en común). Gauthier encontró algo de activación en la FFA cuando los expertos en autos identificaban autos y cuando lo expertos en aves estaban identificando aves.
Este hallazgo ha sido replicado,
y efectos de la experiencia en la FFA se han encontrado para otras categorías tales como demostraciones de ajedrez y lectura de rayos X.
Recientemente, se descubrió que el espesor de la corteza en el FFA predice la habilidad de reconocer caras, así como vehículos.

La magnetoencefalografía en 2009, reveló que los objetos son percibidos incidentalmente como rostros, un ejemplo de pareidolia, evoca una temprana activación de la FFA (165 milisegundos), al tiempo y ubicación similar al que se evoca por rostros, mientras otros objetos no evocan dicha activación. Esta activación es similar a un rostro-específico ERP componente N170. Los autores sugieren que esa percepción de rostros se evoca por objetos similares al rostro que es relativamente un proceso temprano, y no un fenómeno de reinterpretación cognitiva tardía.

Un estudio de caso sobre agnosia, evidenció que los rostros son procesados en una manera especial. Un paciente conocido como C. K., quien sufrió daño cerebral debido a un accidente en auto, luego desarrolló una agnosia en objetos. Tuvo gran dificultad con niveles básicos reconociendo objetos, también se extendió a partes del cuerpo, pero seguía reconociendo perfectamente los rostros. Después, otro estudio mostró que C.K. era incapaz de reconocer rostros que estuvieran invertidos o distorsionado, incluso en casos donde era fácil identificarlos. Esto da evidencia que el FFA fusiform face area está especializado en procesar rostros en una orientación normal.

Algunos estudios con resonancia magnética funcional y electrocorticografía han demostrado que la actividad en el FFA codifica por rostros individuales

 y el FFA está afinado para rasgos faciales relevantes para el comportamiento. Un estudio con electrocorticografía reveló que el FFA está envuelto en múltiples etapas del procesamiento de rostros, continuamente desde el momento que las personas ven un rostro hasta que responden, demostrando la dinámica y la importancia del papel que el FFA juega como parte de la red de percepción de rostros

Otro estudio encontró que hay una actividad más fuerte en el FFA cuando una persona ve el rostro de un familiar que uno no familiar. Se les mostró a los participantes diferentes fotografías de rostros que tuvieran la misma identidad, ya sea familiares, rostros con identidad separada o no familiares. Se encontró que los participantes fueron más precisos a relacionar rostros familiares a los que no eran familiares. Usando un fMRI, también encontraron que los participantes que eran precisos a identificar rostros familiares tenían mayor actividad en su área derecha del FFA y los que difícilmente relacionaban, tenían menor actividad en el área mencionada.

Función y controversia
El área  fusiforme de las caras (FFA) es una parte del cerebro localizada en el giro fusiforme con un propósito debatido. Algunos investigadores creen que el FFA es evolutivo propuesto para la percepción de la cara.

Los psicólogos debaten entre si el FFA se activa mediante rostros ya sea por evolución o por razones de experiencias. Las hipótesis en conflicto se derivan de la ambigüedad en la activación de FFA, como el FFA es activado por ambos, ya sea objetos o rostros familiarizados. Un estudio sobre nuevos objetos llamado greebles determinó este fenómeno.

Cuando se expuso por primera vez a greebles, el FFA de una persona era activado más fuertemente por rostros que por greebles. Después de familiarizarse con greebles individuales o convertirse en un experto en greebles, el FFA de la persona era activado de manera equitativa por rostros y greebles. Igualmente, los niños con autismo han demostrado desarrollar el reconocimiento de objetos a un ritmo similar deteriorado como reconocimiento facial. Estudios tardíos de pacientes con autismo han descubierto que las personas con autismo tienen menor densidad de neuronas en el FFA. Sin embargo, esto plantea una pregunta interesante: ¿La mala percepción del rostro se debe a un número reducido de células o hay una cantidad reducida de células porque las personas autistas rara vez perciben las caras? Pregunta simple: son los rostros objetos simples con los que cada persona tiene una experiencia.

Hay evidencia apoyando la evolución del FFA rostro- percepción. Estudios de caso dedicados a áreas del cerebro sugieren que el FFA está diseñado intrínsecamente para reconocer rostros.  Otros estudios han reconocido áreas del cerebro esenciales para el reconocimiento de ambientes y cuerpos. Sin estas áreas dedicadas, las personas serían incapaces de reconocer lugares y cuerpos. Investigaciones similares con respecto a la prosopagnosia han determinado que la FFA es esencial para el reconocimiento de rostros únicos. Sin embargo, estos pacientes son capaces de reconocer a las mismas personas gracias a otros aspectos, como la voz. Los estudios que implican caracteres del lenguaje también han sido conducidos a fin de averiguar el papel del FFA en el reconocimiento de la cara. Estos estudios han encontrado que los objetos, como los caracteres chinos, generan una alta respuesta en diferentes áreas de la FFA que las áreas que generan una alta respuesta de las caras. Estos datos implican que ciertas áreas del FFA tienen propósitos evolutivos de la cara-percepción.

Evidencia de los bebés
El FFA está subdesarrollado en niños y no se desarrolla completamente hasta la adolescencia. Esto pone en duda el objetivo evolutivo del FFA, ya que los niños muestran la capacidad de diferenciar caras. Los bebés de dos años de edad han demostrado que prefieren la cara de su madre. Aunque el FFA está subdesarrollado en dos años de edad, los bebés tienen la capacidad de reconocer a su madre. Los bebés desde los tres meses de edad han demostrado la capacidad de distinguir entre las caras. Durante este tiempo, los bebés exhiben la capacidad de diferenciar entre géneros, mostrando una clara preferencia por las caras femeninas. Se teoriza que, en términos de evolución, los bebés se centran en las mujeres para la alimentación, aunque la preferencia podría reflejar simplemente un sesgo para los cuidadores que experimentan. Los bebés no parecen usar esta área para la percepción de las caras. El trabajo reciente con resonancia magnética no ha encontrado ningún área selectiva en el cerebro de niños de 4 a 6 meses de edad.

Sin embargo, dado que el cerebro del adulto ha sido estudiado más extensamente que el del niño que todavía está experimentando importantes procesos del neurodesarrollo, simplemente puede ser que el FFA no esté ubicado en un área anatómicamente familiar. También puede ser que la activación de muchas percepciones y tareas cognitivas diferentes en los bebés sea difusa en

términos de circuitos neuronales, mientras que los bebés aún están pasando por períodos de neurogénesis y poda neural; esto podría hacerlo más difícil para distinguir la señal, o lo que podríamos imaginar como visual y complejo de objetos familiares (como rostros), desde el sonido, incluyendo las tasas de disparo estático de las neuronas, y actividad que se dedica a una tarea diferente enteramente que la actividad del procesamiento de rostros. La visión del infante sólo involucra el reconocimiento de luz y oscuridad. Reconociendo sólo las principales características de la cara, activando la amígdala. Estos hallazgos cuestionan el propósito de la evolución del FFA.

Evidencias de las emociones
Los estudios en lo que puede provocar el FFA validan argumentos sobre su objetivo evolutivo.
Hay un sinnúmero de expresiones faciales en los seres humanos utilizan que perturbar la estructura de la cara. Estas interrupciones y emociones se procesan por primera vez en la amígdala y posteriormente se transmiten al FFA para su reconocimiento facial. Estos datos son utilizados por el FFA para determinar más información estática sobre la cara. El hecho de que el FFA está tan con la corriente en el procesamiento de la emoción sugiere que tiene poco que ver con la percepción de la emoción.

Reciente evidencia muestra que, el FFA tiene otras funciones respecto a las emociones. El FFA es diferencialmente activado por rostros que exhiben diferentes emociones. Un estudio ha determinado que el FFA es activado mayormente por rostros temerosos que neutrales. Esto implica que el FFA tiene funciones en el procesamiento de emociones a pesar de su procesamiento posterior y cuestiona su propósito evolutivo para identificar rostros.

Q: Trying to pass $scope.data into a param object from controller to service in Angular In my index.html I have this:
<input type="text" ng-model="title" placeholder="Search..." >
<button type="submit" href="#" ng-click="getSearch()">Submit</button>
<select ng-model="selected" ng-options="obj.val as obj.display for obj in things"></select>

and my controller:
$scope.getSearch = function(){
   svc.search($scope.selected)
    .then(function(response){
     $scope.searchData = response;
     });
  };

$scope.things = [
  {display: 'Movie',
  val: {s: $scope.title}},
  {display: 'Series',
  val: 'series'},
  {display: 'Epsiode',
  val: 'episode'},
];

and finally my service:
this.search = function(params){
  return  $http.get('http://www.omdbapi.com/',params)
    .then(function(response) {
     var results = response.data.Search;
     return results;
   });
  };

Well, looks like I almost got it to work. Now, it all works except it seems that omdbapi doesn't like how the & gets encoded in the params.
  $scope.getSearch = function(){
svc.search($scope.selected())
.then(function(response){
  $scope.searchData = response;
});

};

  $scope.things = [
  {display: 'Movie',
  val: function(){return {'type=movie&s': $scope.title};}},
    {display: 'Series',
    val: function(){return {'type=series&s': $scope.title};}},
  {display: 'Epsiode',
  val: function(){return {'type=episode&s': $scope.title};}},
];

And we have the answer! Of course once I post I figure it out... been working on this for way too long.
  val: function(){return {type: 'movie',s: $scope.title};}},
