Human genes engineered into experimental GMO rice being grown in Kansas

Unless the rice you buy is certified organic, or comes specifically from a farm that tests its rice crops for genetically modified (GM) traits, you could be eating rice tainted with actual human genes. The only known GMO with inbred human traits in cultivation today, a GM rice product made by biotechnology companyVentria Bioscienceis currently being grown on 3,200 acres in Junction City, Kansas -- and possibly elsewhere -- and most people have no idea about it.

Since about 2006,Ventriahas been quietly cultivating rice that has been genetically modified (GM) with genes from the human liver for the purpose of taking the artificial proteins produced by this "Frankenrice" and using them in pharmaceuticals. With approval from the U.S.Department of Agriculture(USDA),Ventriahas taken one of the most widely cultivated grain crops in the world today, and essentially turned it into a catalyst for producing new drugs.

Being back....!

Being back... You are all going to agree with me, there is no better place than the one that makes you feel fulfilled...  Well, I can say that having collaborating a while with Christine Lewicki - a great author, mother, mentor - has truly changed my professional and personal lives. Indeed, today I feel I am doing what I am supposed to do, what I was meant to do. And this is what I called being fulfilled. I am not saying I have achieved the success I am dreaming of but I can say I am on the path to achieving success just because I enjoy my life in all ways. Thank you Christine for the beautiful work you do with people. You are truly talented in finding each of our uniqueness and pushing us forward.
