  • Neither Facial Aggressiveness Nor Facial Width to Height Ratio Are Related to Fighting Success
    Neither facial aggressiveness nor facial width to height ratio are related to fighting success Thomas Richardson, Anam Bhutta, Elena Bantoft, R. Tucker Gilman Abstract There is a growing consensus that there is information in a man’s face about how formidable (big and strong) he is. Recent work in mixed martial artists has shown that there may be facial correlates of fighting success. Fighters with more aggressive looking faces, as well as higher facial width to height ratios (fWHR), win a greater percentage of their fights. This has been used as evidence that human males may have evolved to signal and detect formidability using facial features. However, all previous studies have used datasets that may have considerable overlap, so it is important to replicate these effects in new samples. Moreover, some studies show that facial width to height ratio is correlated with body size, which may have confounded associations between fWHR and fighting success. The present study attempted to replicate and expand previous findings in 3 samples totalling several hundred professional fighters taken from several combat sporting leagues. I also tested whether head tilt affected ratings of aggressiveness, as previous studies have found conflicting effects. Overall, I found no significant links between fighting success and fWHR or facial aggressiveness. Tilting the head up or down both made a fighter’s face look more aggressive. Interestingly, there was only low- moderate agreement between raters on the apparent aggressiveness of a given face. Further, I found that facial width to height ratio was related to body size, and that body size mediated the link between fWHR and perceived aggression.

  • The Call to Holiness: from Glory to Glory
    The Call to Holiness: From Glory to Glory Report of the Joint International Commission for Dialogue Between The World Methodist Council and The Roman Catholic Church 2016 Tenth Series PREFACE This report has been prepared by the Joint International Commission for Dialogue between the World Methodist Council and the Roman Catholic Church for presentation to the World Methodist Council, meeting in Houston, Texas, USA, in 2016, and to the Pontifical Council for Promoting Christian Unity. It is the tenth such report to be published in the fifty years since the Commission was established in 1967, following the Second Vatican Council (1962- 65). Each report investigates historically divisive issues in Christian doctrine in order to identify the degree of convergence between Catholics and Methodists, and to name areas where further dialogue is necessary. The Commission’s work has been published for study within and beyond our two communions, and to record the deepening communion in faith between Catholics and Methodists. In its recent reports, the Commission has adopted the convention of referring to ‘Methodists’ and ‘Catholics’ (rather than ‘Roman Catholics’) without implying that Methodists are not catholic Christians. Except where quoting directly from other documents, including its earlier reports, the Commission has once again adopted this convention. Here ‘Methodists’ and ‘Catholics’ denote members of our two world communions, some of whom would describe themselves in other terms, such as Wesleyans or Nazarenes, Latin rite Catholics or Eastern rite Catholics. Nevertheless, since the term ‘Catholic Church’ is ambiguous, and since the Pontifical Council for Promoting Christian Unity appointed the Catholic members of the Commission, this report refers to the ‘Roman Catholic Church’.

  • Honor & Glory in the Iliad: Life After Death
    Paper 1 Cheryl Texin 21h.301 Rec: F2 Honor & Glory in the Iliad: Life After Death Honor and glory are central to the Greek character. Since heroes are the essence of the society from which they come, Greek heroes live their lives according to honor and glory, in all their varied forms. Honor and glory trigger an epic war that takes the lives of numerous men, and shape its development at every stage. The fall of Troy is “a thing… whose glory shall perish never (Homer, Iliad 2.324)”. The goal of the Greeks is the fame that resounds even after death, and they let nothing bar their way. The honor of the individual, family, and community guide every action and response. Honor and glory define the hero, and therefore are the foundations for everything that comes to pass in Homer’s Iliad. The concepts of honor and glory are critical to understanding the motivation of the heroes in Homer’s Iliad1. Glory was gained by great, heroic actions and deeds and was conferred upon an individual by others who witnessed and acclaimed the glorious actions. Major battles provided an opportunity for many to find glory at once. Honor was similar to glory, but while the public had to view actions and deem them glorious, each individual maintained their own sense of personal honor which did not always coincide with honor as defined or perceived by the masses. Honor was gained through heroism in battle, but also through compelling speechmaking, loyalty and other noble qualities that a person might demonstrate.

  • MMA Offers Gold, Glory for Thailand Kickboxers
    Sports FRIDAY, MAY 20, 2016 43 Are martial arts clubs adding punch to the jihadist cause? PARIS: Combat sports are booming around the world but in France increasingly draw the attention of intelligence servic- es hunting potential jihadists. Long concentrated in poor suburbs and with no real organization watching over their activities, critics say the mixed martial arts, judo, kick boxing and other clubs are ideal for fomenting radicalization and jihadist training. Ironically, many of the clubs get subsidies from French town halls. Mederic Chapitaux, who has written a book, “Sport, The Fault In State Security”, about the phenomenon, believes France should not be alone in worrying. “We know this has a national dimension, European, worldwide,” Chapitaux, a former gendarme and technical director for a contact sports federation said in an interview. Just before a group of suicide attackers killed 130 people across Paris on November 13 last year, a Central Territorial Intelligence Service (SCRT) note was leaked. It warned of the radicalization in suburban, amateur sport-particularly the combat clubs. Sports Minister Patrick Kanner said later that France had completely “underestimat- ed” the risks. His ministry launched a Citizens of Sport plan aiming to reinforce education for sports trainers to counter BANGKOK: Thai mixed martial artist Dejdamrong Sor Amnuaysirichoke (center) demonstrating his groundwork skills at radicalization. Chapitaux said the “signals” of trouble were a ONE Championship promotion event in Bangkok. — AFP missed. Fighters increasingly covered their bodies, even for showers, prayer mats appeared before and after training, there was a growing rejection of mixing with women. “Trainers and social workers did not understand the growth MMA offers gold, glory of the phenomenon,” said Chapitaux.
