Posted by Frank N. Foods reports that Biofortified, a science-based blog about plant genetics, gathered more votes than the closest challenger on the changemaker “GMO risk or rescue” competition by a 2-to-1 margin. How did this happen? The science blogging community Pharyngulated the competition thanks to a post by PZ Myers. When the opposition protested in a somewhat unethical manner, PZ hit them again. Although the votes are not final, it looks like biofortified may have won the grand prize- a conversation wtih Michael Pollan about plant genetics. Thanks everyone for your support.

On a completely unrelated note:
You might want to replace the 227KB 1960×3010 image of yourself with a much smaller 5-10K one of the right size (150×230). Not only will it load faster, it will also look better because web browsers typically don’t use the best (read: slowest) downscaling algorithms.
