Genius refers to a person, a body of work, or a singular achievement of surpassing excellence. More than just originality, creativity, or intelligence, genius is associated with achievement of insight which has transformational power. A work of genius fundamentally alters the expectations of its audience. Genius may be generalized, or be particular to a discrete field such as sports, statesmanship, science, or art. Although difficult to quantify, genius refers to a level of aptitude, capability or achievement which exceeds even that of most other exceptional contemporaries in the same field. The normal distribution suggests that the term might be applied to phenomena ranked in the top .1%, i.e. three standard deviations or greater, among peers. In psychology, the inventor of the first IQ tests, Alfred Binet, applied the term, to the top .1% of those tested.[1][2] This usage of the term is closely related to the general concept of intelligence. The term may be also applied to someone who is considered gifted in many subjects[3][Need quotation on talk to verify] or in one subject. Intelligence testing was invented by Francis Galton and James McKeen Cattell, who had advocated reaction time and sensory acuity as measures of "neurophysiological efficiency" and that latter concept as a measure of intelligence.[4] By intelligence they meant a heritable trait, which was a general intelligence factor. Galton is regarded as the founder of psychometrics (among other kinds of metrics, such as fingerprinting), He was a fan of Charles Darwin, who showed that traits must be inherited before evolution can occur. Reasoning that eminence is caused by genetic traits he did a study of their heritability, publishing it in 1869 as Hereditary Genius. His method was to count and assess the eminent relatives of eminent men. He found that the number of eminent relatives is greater with closer degree of kinship, indicating to him (since then debated) that a genetic trait is present in an eminent line of descent that is not present in other lines.

November 20, 2009
For over 140 years, A.I. Root Co. remains to be on top when it comes to candle making. Back in 1869, the genius behind this company was specializing in other industries - as a manufacturer of beekeeping equipment and a jeweler based in Medina Square. And one day, Amos Ives Root decided to venture on the more exquisite and elaborate business in candle making as he decided to roll beeswax around a wick. A.I.’s colony started when one day, a group of bees flew right in the store. Amos then asked one worker to capture the bees and put them in a box. As what his great-great grandson shares, his wi...

7. The Intuitive Genius of Your Being

24. Your 401(k) May Not Be as Safe as You Think
November 05, 2009
Financial institutions have a distinct genius for marketing. They are able to get millions of Americans to hand over their money with very little thought taken, very little knowledge of the so-called investments offered, and even less control of their investments.
When the evidence is plainly presented, it becomes overwhelmingly clear that putting money into 401(k)s and similar qualified plans is not investing at all--it is one of the riskiest gambles for most individuals.
