Here are this morning’s:
* How to fall six miles and survive — grab onto something — don’t land on your head
* How our parents affect what we look for in a mate — women born to “old” parents (over 30) were less impressed by youth — more attracted to age cues in male faces than women with “young” parents (under 30)
* Why high-end prostitutes make so much money — “while looks decline monotonically with age, wages follow a hump-shaped pattern” — yes, hump-shaped pattern
* People who feel more powerful lie better — having power essentially buffered the powerful liars from feeling the bad effects of lying — from responding in any negative way or giving nonverbal cues that low-power liars tended to reveal
* College-educated women are marrying well — college once hurt women in the marriage market — these days, few women feel the need to play down their intelligence or achievements
