, 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
we
know about, where fundamental forces behave very differently than how we
perceive them. For example, gravity is the weakest of the four fundamental
forces, but in other dimensions, it could be just as strong. "Things
would be very different in this hidden reality," Freeman says. [6 Weird
Facts About Gravity]The universe could even be a kind of hologram. The
amount of information that can be stored in a region of space
is proportional to the region's surface area, rather than its volume a
property known as the holographic principle. One possible implication is
that reality is actually two-dimensional, and the three-dimensional world
is merely an illusion, which would explain some of the wackiness of
quantum mechanics.All of these views of the world those that we perceive
in our minds, and those that physicists discover in the universe are
flavors of reality. What humans perceive as reality may be no more
than an illusion. But in the end, maybe that doesn't matter.Copyright 2013

<p style="font-size:xx-small;">German Chancellor Angela Merkel gestures during a press conference in Berlin,
Germany, Friday, July 19, 2013. Chancellor Angela Merkel is acknowledging
Germans have been unsettled by allegations of widespread U.S. surveillance
though she insists patience is needed as officials seek answers from Washington.
Merkel faced a barrage of questions about the National Security Agency's
activities at a news conference Friday following a week in which her
opponents have asserted she's doing too little to confront the U.S. and
protect Germans' data. Germany holds elections Sept. 22 in which Merkel
seeks a third term. (AP Photo/Gero Breloer)German Chancellor Angela Merkel
vehemently denied the country is a surveillance state after a magazine reported
her government used a top U.S. National Security Agency spy program.The
German magazine Der Spiegel reported Saturday on Germanys utilization of
an NSA system known as XKeyScore, which allows an agency to gather
all of the unfiltered data a targeted individual has accessed over a
specific period of time.The XKeyScore program can, for instance, retroactively
reveal any terms the target person has typed into a search engine,
DerSpiegel wrote in citing documents seen by its reporters.Additionally,
the magazine said the system is able to receive a full take
of all unfiltered data over a period of several days -- including,
at least in part, the content of communications.According to the Der Spiegel

RIO DE JANEIRO Since taking the helm of the world's biggest
church in March, Pope Francis has waded into massive crowds with minimal
protection to hug children and wash the feet of the faithful. He
has surrounded himself with everyday worshippers at every turn, winning
acclaim that he's breaking down barriers between the Vatican and the world's
1.2 billion Catholics.Yet for Brazilian security officials charged with
protecting the 76-year-old pontiff with the common touch, his seven-day
visit this week is an uncommon security challenge.In his first international
trip as pope, Francis has built much of his schedule in the
world's biggest Catholic country around high-profile events that send him
straight into unpredictable, potentially chaotic environments without
the protection of the bulletproof popemobile used by his two predecessors.On
Thursday, the pope will visit a tiny chapel founded in 1971 in
the Varginha slum, one of Rio's more than 1,000 hillside shantytowns. Many
such slums cower under the control of dangerous drug gangs or deadly
militias made up mostly of former and current police and firefighters. Police
invaded Varginha in January to clear out traffickers, but the gangs remain
a shadowy presence there.The next day, Francis will hit Copacabana beach
to walk the Stations of the Cross among an expected 1 million
young Catholics gathered for World Youth Day festivities. Vatican officials
have said he'll travel to the beach p
