Can Exercise Be Fun? by Amy Dungan
An article caught my eye today and I had to do a double take. The gist of the piece was that if you are enjoying exercise, you aren't doing it right.

I don't get up of a morning and think "I can't wait to work my muscles until they hurt and my body feels like a blob of jelly!" So maybe we are only really working our muscles if we are doing something that is uncomfortable. I'll concede it's possible.

This was a thoroughly enjoyable and well-thought out tour. The guide was particularly impressive with his ability to speak in 5 major languages. There was just the right amount of bus travel and stops. The tour guide explained everything clearly and made the history of what we were exploring very interesting. The highlight of course was the monastery of Melk and we all enjoyed the time we spent there. I went during the winter so we had the lunch option (in a restaurant) instead of the Danube tour. I would have preferred the tour company planning something else since the restaurant did not go to the greatest of efforts and I felt that what they served was a blight on Austrian cuisine.
Doing what: Danube Valley Day Trip from Vienna
Really enjoyed the trip to the beautiful Danube valley and Melk Abbey. The trip was well organised and hotel pickup was really appreciated. Our guide Sylvia was very helpful and answered all sort of questions very patiently. She also gave us interesting insights to the areas, food and history.
It would have been nicer if we could spend some more time in the Wachau valley specially during the walk through Dürnstein. Rest of the trip was lovely.
Doing what: Danube Valley Day Trip from Vienna
We totally enjoyed our bike tour along the Danube. The wine tastings along the way were a bonus. Stelios our guide was very professional and knowledgeable about both the history of the region and its wines. We would certainly recommend this tour.
Doing what: Wine Tasting Bike Tour departing Vienna
We had a very enjoyable if not long day out. We took the bus through some very scenic Austrian countryside before boarding the boat for our Danube Valley river cruise. Had a very nice lunch onboard before visiting the abbey. Yes I'm sure there were parts of this trip that could have been arranged better but overall and allowing for this I still thought the day was worth it with this company
Doing what: Danube Valley Day Trip from Vienna
We contacted the tour company after our arrival in Vienna by e-mail. We received a prompt response and a return e-mail message indicating the time when they would be picking us up from our hotel.
We took our tour in December when the Danube boat portion of this tour is not operating. The tour's lunch substitution was mediocre at best although the location was nice (Americans should note that they call chicken "turkey" in Germany and Austria).
Our guide was decent enough, although I could have gone without the attempts to sell us guidebooks and musical CDs.
Our primary reason for taking this tour (especially in the absence of the Danube River boat) was visiting Melk Abbey. However, the small towns they took us to en route were certainly interesting too. The Abbey did not disappoint and the location guide we had there was excellent and made the place come more alive.
Potential purchasers should note (as Viator clearly states in their description) that this tour does NOT terminate back at your hotel. You will be dropped off by the bus at a central Vienna location (the Opera house) and will have to make your way back to your hotel on your own. Not too difficult, but if you're uncomfortable with using public transport there were plenty of cabs around.
Overall, if you are interested in the Abbey, the tour is definitely worth doing even during the winter months. Purchasing the tour from Viator made everything seamless.
Doing what: Danube Valley Day Trip from Vienna
It is difficult to even imagine that visiting the Austrian countryside and riding on the Danube can be disappointing, but this was by far my worst touring experience! Poorly organized tour with a useless guide and incredibly bad service - in other words, a complete waste of money!
Do yourself a favor: rent a car and just explore the countryside on you own: there is nothing that this organized tour really does other than collecting an obscene amount of money
Doing what: Danube Valley Day Trip from Vienna
This trip was absolutely wonderful, we were blessed whit great autumn weather, real Indian summer. The scenery, Danube cruise, picturesque little towns, vineyards and at the end of the tour the magnificent Melk's Abbey, real gem!
It was well organised but we did not care for our guide, very boring and lacking "people skills ".
I would positively recommend this tour
Doing what: Danube Valley Day Trip from Vienna
The best way to start a bus tour! You certainly got a flavour of a river cruise in a matter of a couple of hours. Very organized and smooth! Beautiful day with onboard drinks and gorgeous scenery along the Danube. Would recommend to anyone.

Great trip and worth the money. We especially enjoyed the Danube cruise.
Our guide Zlato (I think) was great!
Doing what: Danube Valley Day Trip from Vienna
The trip was even more than advertised. The guide was very friendly and knowledgeable. Since we arrived early to catch the boat down the Danube, our driver and guide took us on a quick driving tour of the town (which was not included in the tour). The day was beautiful and the trip great. The only drawback I would note, is since we decided to eat lunch at the restaurant at the abbey, we didn't have enough time to walk through the gardens before the tour.
Doing what: Danube Valley Day Trip from Vienna
Great tour and although the day started out overcast and grey - by the time we got to Spitz in the Danube Valley, the sun came out. The boat trip up the Danube was beautiful as was the visit at the monastery at Melk. Could have used a bit more time at the monastery. Overall - the trip was great and professionally arranged. Only caveat I would have is the collection of participants and the shifting of people from bus to bus in the morning could have been better done as there were some confusing moments before we actually set out on the trip from Vienna.
Doing what: Danube Valley Day Trip from Vienna
Rainy day, but a wonderful trip. Drove through the wine country and then took cruise up the Danube to Melk Abbey. Informative tour at the abbey and time to have lunch. Wish we had more time to walk the grounds of the abbey.
Doing what: Danube Valley Day Trip from Vienna
The guide was really good and took care of every individual person. AS it was promised we were picked up from the hotel. Otherwise it is quite difficult to reach the meeting point. The trip ended in front of the Opera House. The Danube valley is very beautiful and the abbey impressive. I have not enough wards to describe how magnificent it is. If the weather is fine the trip worth the money and the time. Isabelle
Doing what: Danube Valley Day Trip from Vienna
Tour was worth the price. Hotel pick up with no issue - people are taken to a central point to board a number of different buses depending on what tour you are on. This is not explained at all and led to confusion. Once we were on our tour all went well. Boat ride on Danube and Melk tour well done. Tour guide very knowledgeable. 4 stars rather than 5 due to the confusion (or more accurately lack of information) at the collection point. Would recommend this one.
Doing what: Danube Valley Day Trip from Vienna
We were a group of four. Great river cruise up the Danube from Schwedenplatz, sunny and nice weather. Good idea to start early, as we did. We were at Schoenbrunn early too, to have time to see the castle's interior plus the magnificent garden outside. Dinner at 6:30 pm was ok, and the concert later in the evening was great. With loads of Mozart and Strauss. All put together: Good value for money and a well composed day program.

did mccain even bring up ayers in the last debate? i dont think so....therefore, not the center of his campaign
McCain might be winning this one so far. Obama needs a good response here on these two issues.
Actually DL, Obama is in the comfortable position of being able to throw civil-rights leaders under the bus if he wants. There's almost nothing he can do to lose the African-American vote. But he will probably win a lot of independents.
McCain refuses to address Palin's terrorists line, and Mr. McCain, when "terrorist" turns into chants, it isn't just a few crazies. And there is ayers...
Forbese, Obama screwed up the statistic, but the Wisconsin Advertising Project said that in the last month McCain has been 100% negative.
This is a great point by McCain, too. As I said last week, the evidence amounts to about five to eight people saying incendiary things at McCain rallies.
I think he did a good job of not throwing Lewis under the bus while still making his point.
Obama has to be careful here. Remember that African-American civil rights leaders have never like him that much from the beginning. He doesn't want to throw one under the bus right here, specifically an important one who made a good point.
"I'm proud of the people that come to our rallies".Yeah John, some of them. But some are out of line. And that's the point.
How many new ads does a candidate put out in 2 weeks, 2? 3?
I don't know why Obama doesn't McCain's foreign policy. I know that's not the subject of today's debate, but if there is one huge example of where McCain agrees with Bush and Obama doesn't on something where the American people agree with Obama, it's foreign policy.
This is actually great by McCain, because Obama has straight up mischaracterized him on some of those ads, but doesn't take nearly the heat for it that McCain takes every time he does. But then he blew it by alluding to "Joe the Plumber."
Doctor Robert, it can be backed up. Independent media analysts say that within the past 2 weeks, 100% of McCain's ad spending has been negative (only for the last 2 weeks).
There are a plethora of positive McCain ads. Obama's statement is totally bogus.
I don't remember the McCain's ads running during the Olympics being negative.
where i live, there have been many positive mccain ads. yes, there are negative ones, but not 100 percent of them!
That can't be true. I remember a few where he was happy and cheerful and being a maverick...
aww McCain's feelings are hurt because people are reporting on his crazy supporters. Does he need a hug? (side note I like that 100% negative stat, can it be backed up?)
The blinking is reminiscent of Dole. Not good.
I think McCain is backing off the Ayers claim and going for the John "I endured beatings from Police while supporting MLK" Lewis claim.

|NBA Odds: New Jersey Nets at San Antonio Spurs Spread, Preview & Public Bets
|Written by Anthony Rome
|Tuesday, 04 March 2008 07:00
Frustrating Season
Devin Harris has had mixed results against the San Antonio Spurs since joining the league in 2004. The New Jersey Nets would gladly settle for mixed results against the Spurs.
Harris, who has played well in his first two games with New Jersey, looks to help the Nets avoid an 11th straight loss to the surging Spurs when the teams conclude a home-and-home series Tuesday night.
Oddsmakers from Sportsbook.com have made San Antonio –11.5 point spread favorites (NBA Odds) for today's game, the over/under has been set at 183.5 total points (Matchup). Our public betting information shows that 58% of bets for this game have been placed on New Jersey +11.5 (View NBA Bet Percentages).
Harris played in 12 games against San Antonio while with Dallas, helping the Mavericks earn wins in six of those contests. The fourth-year point guard played against the Spurs (41-17) for the first time as a member of the Nets (26-33) on Sunday night, finishing with 21 points in a 93-83 New Jersey loss.
It was the Nets' 10th straight loss to the Spurs since a 91-82 win on Nov. 13, 2002. San Antonio, which has also won nine straight games overall, has held New Jersey under 90 points eight times during that run.
Sunday's game was Harris' second with the Nets since being acquired Feb. 19 in an eight-player trade that sent Jason Kidd to Dallas. He was nursing a sprained left ankle when the deal was made.
Harris has scored 21 points in each of his two games with New Jersey, but his effort against the Spurs wasn't enough to help the Nets avoid one of their worst offensive games of the season. The Nets, trying to hold on to eighth place in the Eastern Conference, shot 34.6 percent (27-for-78) from the field.
Spurs coach Gregg Popovich has seen enough of Harris over the years to know the Nets have picked up an outstanding young player.
"He's a young, dynamic kid who's got a lot of energy," Popovich said. "He's just going to get better and better. He's a hell of a talent."
San Antonio has its own dynamic point guard in Tony Parker, who made sure the Spurs' season-best winning streak remained intact by making two clutch fourth-quarter baskets in the first game of this series. Parker finished with 25 points, eight rebounds and seven assists.
Since Parker joined the team in 2001, San Antonio is 5-0 at home against New Jersey.
"He finishes games nicely, making shots in the fourth quarter that he's not making in the first half," said Harris, who matched up with Parker often in the Western Conference. "That's what makes him so tough. You've got to remember that he was an NBA finals MVP and he knows how to finish."
Parker helped San Antonio sweep Cleveland in last year's NBA finals. The Spurs won 13 straight around this time last year before making their playoff run, and their current streak is their longest since then.
San Antonio leads the West with a .707 winning percentage, just ahead of the Los Angeles Lakers.
"The race in the West is very tight," Parker said. "You can't afford too many tough losses ... against teams that you should win against."

I love sauerkraut. It's in my genes. My Dad is 100% Polish and growing up, dinners at Grandma's house included delicious (and kraut-y) Polish classics like Pierogis and Kapusta.
So when Native Foods Cafe opened in Chicago last year , the first item on their menu that I tried was their Sesame-Kale Macro Bowl of steamed kale, brown rice, creamy ginger sesame sauce, sauerkraut, gomasio and toasted sesame seeds. This was my first time having sauerkraut with food that wasn't Polish so I was surprised by how AMAZING this combination was. Since then, I've tried most of the items on Native Foods Cafe's menu (all delicious!), and this is still my absolute favorite dish there.
Throughout my years of loving sauerkraut, I never had any idea that it's actually a super-food of sorts. With the recent rise in popularity of Kombucha (fermented tea), I've been hearing much more in the media about the health-benefits of fermented foods . As it turns out, just like yogurt, the probiotics (healthy bacteria) in fermented foods may improve digestion, support the immune system, and reduce inflammation in the gut. Among Kombucha and Sauerkraut, fermented products also include BEER, Kimchi (spicy cabbage), Miso (soybean paste), Sourdough Bread and Pickles!
Recently, I decided to make the Go-To-Grain & Veggie Bowl which I saw demo'd at Chicago's VeggieFest . The best thing about this recipe is that it's flexible. You choose your favorite grain, your favorite veggies, your favorite fermented item, and your favorite toppings!
At the VeggieFest demo, along with Sauerkraut, Cilantro, Sesame Oil and Sprouts, the recipe included Quinoa, Broccoli, Carrots, Scallions and Brazil nuts, but my version at home was very different. With inspiration from the Native Foods' Sesame Kale Macro Bowl, the first bowl I made had Brown Rice, Kale, Cauliflower, Leeks and Almonds.

Graham Island Things to Do
Local legend has it that if you drink the water from St Mary's spring, you will return to Haida Gwaii.
Now, it's not in our nature to return to the same place twice, and we did drink from the water, so time to test the local legend!
This trip has to be timed so that you get to the wreck near low tide, otherwise you might have to head to high ground to get out of the water! It's about a 1-3/4 hour walk from the parking lot to the wreck, and the return trip takes the same length of time. This means going at a reasonably good pace. Hurry, and you can probably knock off 15 minutes in each direction. Take your time and the round trip could take closer to 5 hours...
The park entrance is at Tlell. You park at the Tlell River Picnic area parking area and follow the East Beach trail.
Is it worth it? If you've never seen a shipwreck, you get a nice view of the bow of a wreck. It's a really nice walk through some interesting second growth forest.Related to:

Heirloom Bush Beans
I received some mystery beans in a swap I participated in some time ago. The only things I know about them is that they are heirlooms and bush beans. They were a mix of different beans. I do not know if they are snap beans or shell beans. If it helps, I got them in the Purpleacres Edible swap earlier this year.
Now for the question. Can shell beans be eaten as snap beans?
Now to hunt through some catalogs & try and find out what they are.
The only way to tell if a shelly can be used for a snap is to try. Some can and some can't. I have one bean which is really best for dry seed. If I pick the pods really really small I can get away with eating them as snaps. But, it's not worth it.
Tahlequah, OK
Thanks for the info, George.
I realized it was kind of cruel to post about my dilemma and not describe the bean seeds. There are at least 6 different kinds.
1. The smallest one is white & kidney shaped but a quarter of the size of a kidney bean. Flageolet bean?
2. The second is a small tan bean, bigger than the first but still maybe one third the size of a kidney bean. It looks like a bean you would use to make typical baked beans.
3. The third is a beige bean with black speckles, almost twice as large as the second. Refugee bean?
4. This next one is slightly large then the third. It is beige with black swirls. Peregion bean?
5. The fifth is on par in size to the fourth. It is beige with darker beige swirls.
6. The sixth is slightly larger. It is beige with a red swirl. It could be Boston Favorite or Cranberry.
After my brief research, it seems like most of these are shelling beans.

The Ring 3: Death by Sandwich
December 7th, 2010 · 86 Comments
Matt, a law student in Boston, surmises that this note posted in the school's student lounge was written by non-native English speaker — "the other possibility being that the stress of exams has eaten away at his ability to write coherently." But what's curious about this note isn't the spelling and grammar so much as the the variety and specificity of immediate punishments that are promised within.
"For example," asks Matt: "Will the food choke the perpetrator, or will Frank be the choker? How will the burns be administered to the sleeper?" And so on. "In any case," he adds, "at least the various threatened deaths won't be drawn out. (Also, to the best of my knowledge, there is no 'video record' of the refrigerator.)"

A different sort of Dear John letter
October 6th, 2010 · 50 Comments
Leslie in Wilmington, North Carolina says her baby sister has "always been pretty intense." To wit: while going through some old papers recently, she dug up this card, which her then-10-year-old sister sent to Leslie's boyfriend at the time.
(I'd like to think that beneath that thin layer of Liquid Paper lies an even more specific accusation, but baby sis' decided that a more veiled threat would be the best way to scare Jon straight.)

All the news that's fit to steal
September 12th, 2010 · 82 Comments
"New York Times reader" didn't become a right-wing synonym for "elitist" out of nowhere. As the newspaper itself proclaims, "Times readers are a well-educated group. They expect sophisticated coverage and literate prose."
But how does that literate sophistication hold up when the Gray Lady goes a-missin'? Well, if "self-aggrandizing smugness" counts as sophistication and "almost free of basic spelling and grammar errors" counts as "literate" — remarkably well, actually! (That whole "i before e" thing is pretty tricky, after all.)
Exhibit a) From Alan in Washington, DC:
Exhibit b) From an anonymous submitter in Lawrence, Kansas:
Exhibit c) From Elizabeth in Queens:
Unimpressed? Well, for the sake of comparison, let's take a look at some notes by readers of less "sophisticated" newspapers. Like, say, the Washington Post:
Adds Robin in DC: "This person has also posted several other notes making various threats, including a promise to fill their paper with feces and glitter."
As much as I appreciate that imagery, it's actually New York's other status-symbol-paper that inspires my favorite note of this genre — primarily because it so perfectly captures the essence of the Patrick Bateman/Gordon Gekko-worshipping tool I imagine the writer to be.
Our submitter, meanwhile, found the note more puzzling than anything else. Writes Danielle: "What kind of boring person steals the Wall Street Journal?"
And that, dear readers, is a question for another day.

Those heirloom tomatoes had sentimental value!
August 1st, 2010 · 87 Comments
Frustrated by fridge thieves who continually ignore your polite (or not-so-polite) requests to keep their paws to themselves? Don't get mad — get creative! You could end up with something so crazy it might actually work…that is, if it doesn't totally backfire.
You could go for the classic bluff, with the hopes that you'll inspire just enough self-doubt to encourage the thief to go for the next lunch bag over.
Or you could hold out hope that the thief in question is either very lazy, very stupid…
…or that he or she appreciates your twisted sense of humor enough to take mercy on your pathetic self.
Or you could just bring this for lunch. (Somehow, I think this would have been safe, even without the note.)
Thanks to Theresa in Birmingham, Alabama; Stacey in Manchester, New Hampshire; Alissa in Memphis, Tennessee; and Marianne in Dublin, Ireland for submitting!

For the folks who found yesterday's "do not come in" post a bit too "kids say the darndest things" precious, I figured I'd better even things out with a look at what happens when those neglected jealous siblings grow up…and get armed.
Exhibit A, spotted by Heather at a gas station in Gastonia, North Carolina
Exhibit B, which Steve found pinned to a tree in Athens, Ohio (where, while visiting friends, he stumbled upon the property of the local necrophiliac farmer)

The 53rd Annual Punctuation Posse Round-up

If you'd like to join a vigilante punctuation posse or a grassroots typography militia, Washington State might be the place for you.
In one Seattle suburb, for example, an underground group has targeted a certain "JS," who sources say "has some serious control/micromanagement issues, and enjoys flaunting his power to tell people what to do a liiiittle too much. He also tends to find nasty ways to get revenge on people who contradict him."
Elsewhere in Seattle, "office professionalism" seems to have no bearing on freedom of speech…as long as you use the right typeface, of course.

HOT FAKE TREND ALERT! "Bros slicing bros," a.k.a. "hate-eating" Domino's pizza
July 11th, 2010 · 61 Comments
So, you still haven't tried "new taste of Domino's Pizza," despite the barrage of marketing dollars being spent encouraging you to do so? Not to worry! I'll save you the heartburn incurred by a certain food-filching WashU student and his victims.
Here's the scoop: If you order a pizza from Domino's, there's a 60% chance it will taste like a college student's balls, and a 40% chance it will taste like a college student's balls. (Oh, and to the Domino's brand managers reading this: feel free to quote us on that!)
Explains Bridget in St. Louis: "There has been a quite nefarious food thief stealing from the dorm's community refrigerator lately, and I should know, since my stuff has been taken too. There have been a couple of complaints posted to the fridge, but this is the best one I've seen. It was written on a napkin duct-taped to a pizza box that had been (rather hastily) stuffed in the refrigerator."

Great communication via e-mail, and also got the parts in time. Good service and will do business with them again. It would be nice to say on their website, like how many spark plugs are required for a specific model.
This was my first order from Partsgeek.com. The price for some hard-to-find Denso spark plugs was the lowest I could find, even with the modest shipping rate. The website is clean and sensible, the confirmation was immediate. Within 20 hours of my order, UPS delivered them to my door. The plugs were in clean, unopened boxes and were packed with care and undamaged. First class service from start to finish!

Fieldstone Foundation; crumbling mortar
mhm1April 30, 2007
My 90 year old house has a fieldstone foundation with crumbling mortar. There is a little pile of dust all around the perimeter of the basement. We get no flooding or puddles, but the basement is moist in the summer and we get some mold. We don't want to fully finish the basement, but we want to make it clean and playable for kids, pleasant and non-moldy for storage.
Should we seal the walls? How? Should we seal the concrete floor? Thanks in advance . . . .

Chinese State Media Declares iPhone a Threat To National Security 143
from the fruit-ninja-must-have-cause-a-lot-of-traffic-deaths dept.
We've improved Slashdot's video section; now you can view our video interviews, product close-ups and site visits with all the usual Slashdot options to comment, share, etc. No more walled garden! It's a work in progress -- we hope you'll check it out (Learn more about the recent updates).
Dear China: YOU BUILT IT. I think if it was a problem, you'd have mentioned something before now...
And do you really want to push the "national security" button on the iPhone, of all things?
How much money does manufacturing those beautiful little bits of Americana add to your bottom line?
I notice you're not complaining about Samsung, or any of your own local phones. How much less do they track people?
China is right: the iPhone is a gaping security hole.
I also have little doubt that their "solution" will also be a gaping security hole, except that it will be designed so only China's intelligence services can exploit it.
Dear China: YOU BUILT IT. I think if it was a problem, you'd have mentioned something before now...
China only does assembly. They do not design the chips, and they do not write the software.
Tracking is separate from recorded and forwarded history of travel. It has always been possible to hire an agent to follow a specific indivdual. This is different from carrying a device which tracks everybody by default at a very low cost.
An external agent to track dumb cellphones is far more complex than having an agent running inside a smart phone. It involves pretty substantial external resources and doesn't easily scale to large populations.
You knew this, I hope, and were just trolling us. Right?
Here is my problem with Apple, Google and Microsoft.
Each vendor is using crowd sourced location / WiFi sniffing / map building excuses to collect location data from everyone. At least one vendor offers no ability to disable crowd sourcing without also preventing GPS from being used.
GPS ASIC's have advanced to the point where standard excuses (uses too much power, takes too long to get a fix, some indoor use) are no longer applicable. This appears to in no way be discouraging vendors from selecting shitty GPS components while propagating excuses which unnecessarily eat into data plans and upload all of your data.
Think of this from the Chinese perspective. Instead of everyone's location data being uploaded to Google or Apple
I think we are all better off if vendors used more capable GPS chips in their handsets and location data is not constantly being uploaded to any single vendor for any reason by default.
Is your job running? You'd better go catch it!

Monsanto Going Organic
The article below was circulated on the Apple-Crop listserv today. Thought it might be interesting to this forum.
The article is long. For those who don't want to read it, basically Monsanto is using it's high tech GMO measuring equipment to selectively breed natural plants (not gene splicing).
The advantage is that through high tech screening, they can start with better germplasm, identify the genes they want, and identify whether the corresponding naturally bred crosses will have the desirable genes without growing out the crosses.
This gives Monsanto a huge advantage in speeding up selective breeding, even though the crossing is done naturally.
Just to illustrate that advantage, Fruit Acres originally planted 8000 peach trees to select the best 11 varieties originally released in their Stellar peaches line. That means they had to grow 8000 trees and graft them to get 11 peaches. Comparatively speaking, Monsanto wouldn't have to grow out and graft anything to get the best cultivars. Furthermore, since they can "pre-screen" their germplasm, the odds are stacked highly in their favor they can get better cultivars than traditional selective breeding.
Opponents can't claim the food is GMO and there is no regulatory process for release because the food is completely natural (as natural as any selective breeding).
This completely changes the paradigm of selective breeding. Technology is moving very rapidly.
Here is a link that might be useful: Monsanto is going organic in a quest for the perfect veggie
That's great news as they are such an advanced company. The technique though is far from new. Others have been doing this too. You don't have to wait for fruit when you know what the genetic markers mean. I read an article about growing hot peppers using this technique. I also like to grow hot peppers from seed. If I could I would grow 40 or 50 different varieties, but I'm limited to about 5. Same with tomatoes, although I grow at least a dozen every year.
Monsanto obviously recognizes the potential profits in the organic seeds market. This could just mean more of the same though: nasty tasting produce that looks beautiful and ships really well!
In terms of vegetables at least, the diversity of amazing varieties is already there, it just needs to be preserved before being lost. This technology would really be useful for fruit trees though, that take years to grow out and evaluate.
"This gives Monsanto a huge advantage in speeding up selective breeding, even though the crossing is done naturally."
Basically, a huge misinformation campaign is forcing them to do a ton of extra work to achieve the same results. Which should drive up the price of their seed.
As to good looking veggies/fruit that don't taste like anything, that seems to be what the market wants. It's tough to taste fruit in the store. It's not tough to tell if a fruit doesn't look good. Free market and all.
Plenty of great tasting vegetable seeds are available, it's amazing! Most are open pollinated so you can save seeds and grow forever! I feel sorry for Monsanto trying to crack that market! they better come up with great tasting varieties else they don't stand a chance! Seems like they have the tools to do just that! I can' wait! More choices is excellent!! Yahoo!
Supermarket produce is getting better because they are well aware that consumers are catching on to artesian food markets and they will try to compete. I hardly buy any fruit or meat at the grocery store. Sam's club has excellent steaks, and great crab legs. So some exceptions Chicken I get from the Amish. It is so much better! Once in awhile I see comparable chicken in the grocery stores. Fruit I get at farmer's markets or fruit stores only. And these places are jammed with people!!
Monsanto has managed to make huge amounts of money. Whatever they are doing the apparently get it.
The technology is there, and certainly can be used for fruit trees, but it takes time to study the genetic makeup of trees
to find useful genes that tell you something. This will happen in the future, good article thanks!
The same thing is being done with fruit trees. There was an article in Good Fruit Grower July 2013. Name of the program is RosBREED. They listed work on cherry, peach, and apple; members of the Rosaceae family. It remains to be seen whether they can really predict the best progeny ahead of time. Basically it's being done to save money by testing less trees.
Just wondered what other sources were thinking on the matter. You might be interested.
Here is a link that might be useful: Monsanto trying to patent natural foods
I wonder if they could do it for certain permaculture crops. Chestnuts for example, to speed the selection of virus resistant species, and oaks, which have difficult genes for sweetness.
Glib, no simple gene has been identified for blight resistance in chestnuts, but the American Chestnut Foundation has sought (and/or is seeking) to genetically modify American chestnuts with Chinese chestnut genes.
As to the overall idea, this method is nothing new. I remember seeing my brother-in-law do this with wheat when I visited him in his lab over ten years ago, and he was just doing pretty normal work for the crop science PhD student he was at the time.
