PITTSBURGH  An unidentified city police sergeant is facing possible discipline 
for having his picture taken in uniform while wearing a unicorn mask 
and standing next to a porn star who had just been thrown 
out of a Pittsburgh Pirates game for dancing in the costume head.But 
the woman who took the picture, an adult film producer named Steviee 
Hughes, said she's not sure what the fuss is all about, though 
she's assuming it has more to do with adult entertainer Andy San 
Dimas posing next to the officer than it does the oversized animal 
head he wore on July 13.Calling it a "mountain made out of 
mole hill," Hughes said, "I'm sure if she wouldn't have been a 
porn star, it would have been OK."City public safety officials said Dimas 
was in town last Saturday to dance at a local night club 
but went to the Pirates game first and was ejected by security 
for refusing to sit down after she was seen dancing while wearing 
the large unicorn head.When Dimas was taken to a security office at 
PNC Park, the sergeant and others were standing around and Hughes said 
he agreed to wear the unicorn head and pose for a picture, 
which Hughes then posted on Twitter.That's when the tweet hit the fan.Gossipy 
news blogs Deadspin and TMZ posted the photo as well as cellphone 
video Hughes shot of Dimas dancing in the unicorn head just before 
she was ejected. Rumors spread that the dancer was high on drugs 
or part of a sexual cult fixated on unicorns.Hughes said the tr
, healthier, more successful lives, she said, and the act of 
positive thinking can be a self-fulfilling prophecy. "If you think you're 
more likely to get promoted, you're more likely to put in more 
effort and work long hours," Sharot said.But this slightly distorted view 
of the world can also be a weakness a person might continue 
to smoke because they don't expect to get lung cancer, for example. 
Being more realistic is important in some cases, Sharot cautioned.Physical 
realityPhysicists look beyond the human mind for external reality, but even 
that reality isn't absolute truth. Fundamental reality as scientists understand 
it is based on quantum mechanics, a realm where all manner of 
strange things occur. An electron can behave as either a particle or 
a wave, depending on how one measures it. And scientists can measure 
either a particle's position or its momentum at any given time, but 
never both."Quantum mechanics is simply the best theory we've ever developed," 
theoretical physicist David Tong, of Cambridge University, says in the show. 
But so much of this reality is by definition unknowable. Another physicist 
featured in the show, Steven Nahn of MIT, says "I absolutely believe 
reality is a real thing, but that does not mean we understand 
it." Nahn was part of the team of scientists who found evidence 
in 2012 for the Higgs boson, the particle that gives other particles 
their mass.The universe may turn out to have more dimensions than
