"The link between height and income as well as height and leadership have been known for some time. Yet a new study published in Behavior Genetics has found a 'modest genetic correlation between height and intelligence with the majority of the phenotypic correlation being explained by shared genetic influences'. This seems to agree with a similar study done by the US National Institutes of Health that found a 'perceptual relationship between height and leadership ability.'

Discovery News has a lighter read on the new study's results."

    an old lady named Nguyet...

    Wow, I've never heard the feminine version before, I thought everyone there was called Nguyen. a number of times I've come across the name Nguyen Nguyen (both first and last names) it must get confusing.
