have to Anthony. He's working hard, and people seem to be noticing."Pundits
said they weren't surprised Abedin was taking a far bigger role in
her husband's campaign than Wall Spitzer is in hers."Unlike Silda, Huma
is a political person with her own ambitions. Hillary in 2016 may
be a big part of this," Schiller said. "If Weiner rehabilitates his
image, even if he doesn't win, it helps Huma, too."Each scandal-scarred
candidate's return to politics was met with suggestions that they would
be met with skepticism from female voters and even protests from women's
groups."Forgiveness and second chances are an appropriate measure for wives,
but I don't think that's the measure for those of us who
are being asked to vote for them," said Sonia Ossorio, head of
the New York Chapter of the National Organization for Women. Her group
has endorsed the mayoral race's lone female candidate, City Council Speaker
Christine Quinn, and plans to back Stringer next week.To this point, neither
Spitzer nor Weiner has struggled to win female support.Spitzer led Stringer
44 to 32 percent among women in a Quinnipiac College poll conducted
last week, while that same poll had Weiner drawing 21 percent of
women, only two points behind Quinn and ahead of the rest of
the crowded Democratic field."Women care about things -- like the economy
or public safety -- that impact their lives directly," Greer said. "I
don't think the scandals, or the wives
t take that at all to mean that we're
constructing reality," he told LiveScience.All in the mindAs members of
society, people create a form of collective reality. "We are all part
of a community of minds," Freeman says in the show.For example, money,
in reality, consists of pieces of paper, yet those papers represent something
much more valuable. The pieces of paper have the power of life
and death, Freeman says but they wouldn't be worth anything if people
didn't believe in their power.Money is fiction, but it's useful fiction.Another
fiction humans collectively engage in is optimism. Neuroscientist Tali Sharot
of University College London studies "the optimism bias": people's tendency
to generally overestimate the likelihood of positive events in their lives
and underestimate the likelihood of negative ones.In the show, Sharot does
an experiment in which she puts a man in a brain scanner,
and asks him to rate the likelihood that negative events, such as
lung cancer, will happen to him. Then, he is given the true
likelihood.When the actual risks differ from the man's estimates, his frontal
lobes light up. But the brain area does a better job of
reacting to the discrepancy when the reality is more positive than what
he guessed, Sharot said.This shows how humans are somewhat hardwired to
be optimistic. That may be because optimism "tends to have a lot
of positive outcomes," Sharot told LiveScience. Optimistic people tend to
live longer
