We're very happy to report that one of our articles - Squid Lady Parts - is one of 85 articles nominated for this year's 3 Quarks Daily Science Prize.
The first round is open to public vote, so please go there and show your support for us! The other 84 articles are really good too, so we heartily recommend reading them all.
For those of our readers who aren't familiar with 3 Quarks Daily it's a selective aggregation service, or in their words
The 20 most popular articles will then go through to the next round, with the winners being determined by Frans B. M. de Waal - a Dutch/American biologist and primatologist known for his work on the behaviour and social intelligence of primates.
Voting is open until 11:59pm on September 1st, NYC time - which is 5am on September 2nd for the UK.
Edit 04 Sep 2014:
We made it through to the semi-finals!
Our article was the 6th most-voted-for entry of the competition! The editors of 3QD will now make a selection of 6 to 9 articles, which will be passed to Dr. de Waal for the final decision.
A big thank you from all of us to everybody that voted for Squid Lady Parts!

For those of our readers who aren't familiar with 3 Quarks Daily it's a selective aggregation service, or in their words
a filter blog. In other words, they share content they like from other sites. Six days a week (Tuesday through Sunday) their editors share items from other websites
in the areas of science, design, literature, current affairs, art, and anything else they consider to be
inherently fascinating. On Mondays, they publish original material written by themselves.
