Falling under a spell

There's magic in the air and its not just because of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. Masters of illusion from all over the world are here in Beijing for the "Olympics of Magic".

The 24th International Federation of Magic Societies (FISM) World Championship of Magic (WCM) is being hosted at the National Convention Center from Sunday until July 31.

American magician Arthur Trace is among those cashing in by performing six nights a week throughout the month of July at the Goose and Duck Sports Bar.
