NASA/Swift Science Team/Stefan ImmlerPerhaps our human senses are deceiving
us maybe existence is an illusion, and reality isn't real.The idea that
everything we know is merely a construction of our minds was investigated
in the latest episode of the Science Channel program "Through the Wormhole,"
hosted by Morgan Freeman, which premiered July 17."What is real?" Freeman
asks in the show. "How can we be certain that the universe
around us actually exists? And how can we know that the world
we see matches what anyone else experiences?"Human senses are fallible.
What people think they perceive is actually filtered and processed by the
brain to construct a useful view of the world. Normally, this filtering
is helpful, allowing people to sort out important information from the barrage
of data that comes in every minute from their environment.But this filtering
ability can become a weakness, as it often does when we're watching
a magician."A good magician will tap into universal brain processes that
underlie perception," said Lawrence Rosenblum, a psychologist at the University
of California, Riverside and a magician himself. For instance, a magician
often directs the audience's gaze to one hand while he does something

their husbands' humiliating scandals, are taking very different roles in
their spouses' improbable political comebacks.Silda Wall Spitzer, who famously
stood by husband Eliot Spitzer in 2008 when he stepped down as
governor in a prostitution scandal, hasn't been seen in the early days
of his campaign for city comptroller, though Spitzer insists she's supportive.Huma
Abedin, who was notably absent when husband Anthony Weiner resigned his
congressional seat in 2011 after he acknowledged sending lewd Twitter photos
to women, has been a key player in his surging mayoral run.
She's appeared in his campaign launch video, raised tens of thousands of
dollars and joined him on the campaign trail.The two women, who have
no known relationship, will have little choice but to occupy the spotlight
again before Election Day -- and they may affect their husbands' chances
to regain office."When the significant other forgives you, it makes your
road back in politics that much easier," said Wendy Schiller, a political
science professor at Brown University. "If the wife goes on the campaign
trail or seems really supportive, it makes a huge difference. If she
doesn't, it may raise doubts with women."To many, Wall Spitzer's anguished
appearance at her husband's side when he admitted paying for sex with
prostitutes, is the archetype of the sad genre of wronged political wives,
so much so that it h
