Hunting of orangutans
Orangutans are also still regularly killed or captured. This occurs for three main reasons: first, even today some people still hunt orangutans for food, most notably in the non-Muslim parts of North Sumatra. Second, when orangutans enter farms or plantations at the for-est edge, for example to feed on fruit trees or other crops, they are often shot or otherwise killed, and any surviving infant eventually ends up in trade or as someone's illegal ...

Change in forest cover, 1985-2007
Between 1985 and 2007, 49.3% of all forests on the island were lost. In the provinces of Aceh and North Sumatra the figures were 22.7% and 43.4%, respectively. Most forest loss has occurred in the lowlands, the very areas where orangutan density is highest.

Carbon stock for different type of land uses, on mineral and peat soil
For a range of land uses that occur in Tripa (forests on peatland) and Batang Toru (forest on non-peatland) the profitability and carbon stocks were determined. Undisturbed forest clearly has the highest carbon stock while rice fields have the lowest.

Ecological zones
Sumatran orangutans occur in two main forest habitats, those on dryland mineral soils and those on wet coastal peat. The three main peat areas are Singkil, Kluet and Tripa on the west coast of Aceh province.

Land use types that replaced forest in the Leuser Ecosystem during 1985-2007
The main driver for forest loss on peat areas in the Leuser Ecosystem was oil palm development between 1985 and 2007, while for forest on non-peatlands other land uses than oil palm contributed more to land use changes.

Land cover change in Tripa, Indonesia
In the Tripa peat swamps, companies are operating seven large concessions of between 3,000 and 13,000 hectares. They are converting the remaining forests on peatlands into oil palm plantations. The concessions cover more than 75 percent of Tripa's total area of 62,000 hectares. While almost certainly hosting as many as 1,000 orangutans or more in the early 1990s, when still covered in pristine peat swamp forest, there are thought to be less than ...

The globally threatened Lesser White-fronted Goose is a Palearctic migrant, breeding discontinuously in forest- or shrub tundra and mountainous shrubby wetlands from Fennoscandia to easternmost Russia. The species has declined rapidly since the 1950s leading to a fragmentation of its breeding range. Many key stop-over and wintering sites are still unknown. Today, three distinct wild sub-populations remain, of which the two Western Palearc...

Easter egg hunt at Seattle zoo turns violent as moms square off
ASSOCIATED PRESS April 2, 2013 3:14AM
Updated: April 4, 2013 1:35PM
SEATTLE — One of usually peaceful springtime rituals of childhood — the Easter egg hunt — turned nasty at the Woodland Park Zoo in Seattle.
Blame the moms.
A statement on the Seattle Police Department blotter Monday said the "hard-boiled tale" began Sunday afternoon, "when one woman reportedly pushed a child aside as her own child was scrambling toward some brightly colored eggs."
Police say the two mothers began fighting and had to be separated three or four times. The fisticuffs left one woman with a bloody nose.
Only one mother was still there when officers arrived. She said she wasn't interested in pursuing charges against her attacker.
As the release put it, that left officers without "any info that could crack the case."

I have played golf for over 20 years, and have had many lessons over that time. I have also worked in the golf industry for many years, and have detailed knowledge of equipment. I can help with everything from course knowledge to equipment selection. We can also discuss different styles of courses in Oregon, and which would be best suited for your game.

Indonesia economy slows in fourth quarter, exports weigh on outlook
JAKARTA (Reuters) - Indonesia saw the slowest growth in two years in the fourth quarter of 2012, with weak exports and a lack of government infrastructure spending casting a cloud over prospects for Southeast Asia's largest economy this year.
Indonesia's resilience to the global economic slowdown and its domestic consumption have made it a magnet for foreign investment in recent years, but the country's first annual trade deficit in 2012 has put pressure on the rupiah currency.
Fourth quarter growth in gross domestic product was 6.1 percent from a year ago, weaker than a median forecast for 6.2 percent in a Reuters poll. That took full-year growth to 6.2 percent, also just under the poll forecast and below 2011's pace of 6.5 percent.
"We expect that Indonesia's GDP will still be affected by slower trade performance in 2013, while the domestic economy will remain the backbone to support overall growth," said Andry Asmoro, economist at Bank Mandiri in Jakarta.
On a quarter-to-quarter basis, the economy contracted 1.45 percent in October-December, according to the statistics bureau, or more than the poll forecast of a 1.3 percent drop.
In the three preceding years, Indonesia also reported a contraction in the fourth quarter on an seasonally-unadjusted basis, as a lack of harvests during the period slowed growth in agriculture.
In each of the past three years, Indonesia has had annual growth of more than 6 percent, spurring global interest in the resource-rich country that is Southeast Asia's largest economy. Investors have been drawn by its resources, a rising middle class that's consuming more and a young population.
During 2012, Indonesia saw robust investment and consumption. Auto sales set a record of 1 million vehicles despite regulations requiring higher downpayments.
Private consumption slowed slightly from the prior three months but still grew at 5.4 percent in the fourth quarter. Growth was led by transport and communications, and hotel and restaurant sectors, while service growth quickened.
Domestic consumption, which accounts more than 50 percent of the economy, helped the country attract a record 221 trillion rupiah ($22.8 billion) in foreign direct investment last year, a 26 percent increase from 2011.
Consumer-based firms such as L'Oreal (OREP.PA), Pirelli (PECI.MI), Toyota Motor Corp (7203.T) and Nissan Motor Ltd (7201.T) are among those expanding their business in Indonesia.
Gundy Cahyadi, economist at OCBC Bank in Singapore, said "for now" he is maintaining an estimate of 6.5 percent GDP growth in 2013. But he added that December trade data released last week included a disconcerting drop in capital goods imports and it would be a "worrying trend" if these keep dropping.
The rupiah, which has weakened about 0.6 percent against the dollar this year, held its ground after the GDP data. Last year, it fell around 6 percent to be emerging Asia's worst performer.
For Indonesia, economic concerns include large current account deficits and infrastructure woes.
Public-sector consumption shrank 3.3 percent in the fourth quarter from a year ago, compared to growth of 2.8 percent in the same period in 2011. The statistics bureau said this was due partly to a drop in government hiring.
Each year, the government of President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono promises to improve bureaucracy and spend billions on infrastructure to overhaul the country's strained roads, ports and airports, but little change has been seen so far.
Yudhoyono, elected in 2004 and 2009 on a platform to clean up graft, has recently faced a stream of corruption scandals in his party, and political maneuvering ahead of national elections in 2014 is likely to distract policymakers. Yudhoyono's tenure will end next year, as a president can only have two five-year terms.
Economists say the government must slash costly fuel subsidies this year and re-direct the money to infrastructure, but this would be a politically risky move in a country where previous fuel hikes have led to huge protests. In 2012, Indonesia spent 211 trillion rupiah on fuel subsidies.
If fuel costs are raised, inflation will rise from 2012's tame 4.32 percent level, which was kept down after the government scrapped a plan to hike fuel prices early in the year.
Low inflation has let Bank Indonesia keep its benchmark rate at a record low of 5.75 percent for 11 months.
Analysts expect the central bank will to hold its policy rate at a February 12 meeting, as January inflation stayed benign at 4.57 percent, while policymakers are keen to prop up domestic growth in the face of an uncertain global trade recovery.
In 2012, Indonesia reported its first annual trade deficit of $1.63 billion, after weak demand and prices resulted in exports falling 6.6 percent.
Some economists think Bank Indonesia will need to lift interest rates in 2013 to support the currency, though any increase would likely crimp growth.
"We expect GDP growth to average a below consensus 5.6 percent in 2013, with most of the disappointment coming towards the end of the year," wrote Robert Prior-Wandesforde, economist at Credit Suisse.
"This mainly reflects our view that Bank Indonesia will be forced to tighten policy as current account funding problems and an associated inflation disappointment causes the rupiah to depreciate more abruptly," he said.

11 Whip-Smart Students Have Been Tasked With Finding The Next Mark Zuckerberg
Dorm Room FundMany of today's largest tech companies began on college campuses.
Google stemmed from a project two Stanford Ph.D students, Larry Page and Sergey Brin, were working on.Facebook began in Mark Zuckerberg's Harvard dorm room. Snapchat, a popular new messaging app, also began on Stanford's campus.
First Round Capital, an early stage venture firm that has backed companies like Fab, Path, One Kings Lane and Uber, is trying to find the next big dorm room company. It has created Dorm Room Fund, which selects a handful of driven students, gives them half-a-million dollars, and asks them to invest in their peers' startups. The students will be investing about $20,000 in each startup over the next two years. When they graduate, they'll find new students to replace them.
The first Dorm Room Fund group began in Pennsylvania, and those students have backed two startups so far.
Now Dorm Room Fund has found 11 students in schools across New York, from Columbia undergrads to NYU MBAs. Their task: To find the next Mark Zuckerberg.
The 11 students come from all sorts of backgrounds. They've built their own Google Glass-like products, interned for Facebook and Square, and started micro-finance firms abroad. Here's who the are, and the college startups they have their eyes on.

Chipotle Mexican Grill, in the Barracks Road Shopping Center, opened its doors for the first time.
To celebrate the grand opening, Chipotle offered free burritos. The lunch time rush had people waiting in long lines out the door.
The manager said when the store is officially up and running it will be the biggest moneymaker for the mid-Atlantic. "We made a lot of burritos. We rolled out about 300 to 400 an hour and we did this for nine hours," said Barry Gahagan, the Marketing Manager.
The only way to avoid the long line is to fax in an order or order online.

ATHENS, Texas (AP) - A convicted killer who escaped an East Texas sheriff's deputy just afterbeing convicted in a 2008 slaying is back in custody - just in time for the penalty phase of his trial.
A Henderson County Sheriff's Department spokeswoman confirms that 32-year-old Donnie Ray Westbrook is in custody this afternoon.
He was picked up about noon and was back in the Athens courtroom for the punishment phase of his trial.
Westbrook faces a life sentence for the fatal stabbing of Jerry Jeff Hunt, along with new escape charges.
The Athens Daily Review reported that Westbrook bolted after being convicted of murder last night. Today, the sheriff's spokeswoman says he walked into an Athens business today a few hundred feet from where he escaped and said he wanted to turn himself in.
Athens is 75 miles southeast of Dallas.

TOPEKA, Kan. – First lady Michelle Obama told Kansas high school graduates Friday that young people who have grown up with diversity must lead a national fight against prejudice and discrimination because after six decades, the Brown v. Board of Education ruling against school segregation is still being decided every single day.
Meanwhile, her husband marked the 60th anniversary of the Supreme Court's landmark decision by recommitting to the long struggle to stamp out bigotry and racism in all their forms, and he met in the White House East Room with families of the plaintiffs in the historic case.
Michelle Obama addressed several thousand students and parents in Topeka, where parents filed a federal lawsuit that led to the 1954 decision.
She noted that her special assistant, Kristen Jarvis, is the grand-niece of Lucinda Todd, a leader with the NAACP in Topeka in the 1940s and 1950s, the first parent to sign on to the lawsuit challenging the city's segregated schools. She said Todd, who died in 1996, is an example of people who choose our better history.
Every day, you have the power to choose our better history – by opening your hearts and minds, by speaking up for what you know is right, by sharing the lessons of Brown versus Board of Education, the lessons you learned right here in Topeka, wherever you go for the rest of your lives, Obama said.
The parents who filed the Topeka lawsuit in 1951 were recruited by local NAACP leaders and included Oliver Brown, whose daughter was not allowed to enroll in an all-white elementary school near their home. The U.S. Supreme Court combined the Kansas case with others from Delaware, South Carolina and Virginia, ruling May 17, 1954.
The all-black elementary school that Brown's daughter was forced to attend is now a national park site dedicated to the history of the Brown case and the civil rights movement.
Obama said that despite the progress the Brown decision represented, some school districts have pulled back on efforts integrate their schools and communities have become less diverse as residents move from cities to suburbs.
We know that today in America, too many folks are still stopped on the street because of the color of their skin, or they're made to feel unwelcome because of where they come from, or they're bullied because of who they love, she said.
She added: As you go forth, when you encounter folks who still hold the old prejudices because they've only been around folks like themselves, when you meet folks who think they know all the answers because they've never heard any other viewpoints, it's up to you to help them see things differently.
Obama said young people who've grown up with diversity should speak up when family members make insensitive remarks and push for diversity in the organizations and companies they join.
The truth is that Brown versus Board of Ed isn't just about our history, it's about our future, she said. Because while the case was handed down 60 years ago, Brown is still being decided every single day – not just in our courts and schools, but in how we live our lives.
Her events Friday were scheduled after the initial announcement of her trip last month stirred criticism in the Kansas capital. She'd initially planned to speak today during a graduation ceremony, but some parents and students were worried the arena for the speech wouldn't be large enough.
At the White House, President Barack Obama met with the families of attorneys Jack Greenberg and William Coleman. Greenberg argued the case; Coleman was a leading legal strategist.
The president said in a statement that the Brown decision was the first major step in dismantling the separate but equal' doctrine that justified Jim Crow, the racial segregation laws that were in place at the state and local level across the South.
As we commemorate this historic anniversary, we recommit ourselves to the long struggle to stamp out bigotry and racism in all their forms, Obama said.
We reaffirm our belief that all children deserve an education worthy of their promise. And we remember that change did not come overnight, that it took many years and a nationwide movement to fully realize the dream of civil rights for all of God's children.
Obama pledged to never forget the men, women and children who took extraordinary risks in order to make our country more fair and more free.
Today, it falls on us to honor their legacy by taking our place in their march and doing our part to perfect the union we love, he said.

texasmonthly.com: So tell us how the idea for this assignment come about, specifically, the idea behind driving the entire length of the Rio Grande?
Artie Limmer: Well, [Art Director] Scott Dadich and I had talked about it and he sent me the story and we realized that most of the story focused on the issues of the river in Texas, but it was also about the entire river. The story talks about irrigators in Colorado, the Elephant Butte Dam, places above, and in, El Paso. And we thought, you know, we could shoot this whole river if we worked really fast and just pushed it, trying to capture the feel of much more of the story as a whole. And you can see that in the photos. One of the shots I really liked was of an irrigation ditch all the way up in Colorado; something that's talked about in the story and important part of why the river is the way it is today. You wouldn't get that if you only shot in Texas.
texasmonthly.com: And so how did you guys organize your time? You had over a thousand miles to cover. Did you give yourselves a set amount of time at each location? Was there a lot of pressure on you to work quickly to get it all done in five days?
AL: I've never done something this big before. I met Scott in Albuquerque and then that night we drove up to Taos and just planned to go for it, get started early the next morning at first light. And our plan was simply to work as hard and as fast as we could. We'd see something or some place we liked, or thought was interesting, get out, unload, set up, and just shoot, shoot, shoot—black and white, color, panoramic—load it back up and then hit the road again. We didn't stay in any one spot for more than thirty to forty minutes. We probably spent more time scouting and looking for shots than we did actually taking photos. The whole time we were conscious of capturing where we were at, capturing the feel of a New Mexico canyon or a bordertown in Texas. I guess the most difficult thing was that we didn't have a lot of daylight to work with in November. First light was at around seven and then it was dark by five-thirty. Sometimes we had to plan to be at a certain place we really wanted to shoot at dusk, to get the best light, but that meant hurrying other shots along the way sometimes.
texasmonthly.com: You read the story before you set out, and it talks a lot about how the river is drying up and disappearing. However, you left after a season of heavy rains. I mean, it rained in the lower Valley for nearly two weeks straight, and the river was in pristine shape again. But I'm wondering, having spent such a large amount of time being so close to the river, what jumped out? Did the river still seem like it was dying in places?
AL: Oh yeah, we shot it after they had a lot of water, but I think that we definitely saw evidence that the river isn't as healthy as it could be, especially considering how much rainfall had fallen just before we shot. The main place was the dam, Elephant Butte. They weren't letting any water out of that thing and it was really hard to see that. And then to see what is talked about in the story, the "bathtub ring" where you can see how much water the lake once had when they built the dam, which was horrible. You can really see it clearly. But you're right, we lucked out in that it had already snowed up in Colorado by the time we left, and much of that had already melted, and it had rained for nearly two weeks straight in southern Texas, so we saw a pretty healthy river much of the way. Which was fine with me. It didn't really give a true account of what's going on in the story, but we had much better photographs as a result (laughs). And one of my favorite spots was the Rio's confluence with the Rio Conchos, where you can actually see the color of two kinds of waters merging. We might not have seen that if the water had been too low.
texasmonthly.com: Did you have any trouble down there with the Border Patrol or anywhere else?
AL: We were actually really lucky most of the time. The Border Patrol, once they found out what we were doing, most times was very helpful. There's a certain amount of salesmanship involved I guess. You kind of have to know how to approach people. Both Scott and I are used to working a lot with the public. I do a lot of portrait photography which requires establishing a sort of rapport with the subject, and that's something Scott has a lot of experience with as well. A lot of times this means you're trying to convince strangers to do different things, and I think that helped us a lot on this trip. Around Presidio, when we told a couple of Border Patrol agents who we were and what we were trying to do, and the shots we were trying to capture, they offered to take us to certain spots, so we just followed them in their truck.

Buy a lens adapter from a reputable camera store. Make sure the adapter is made to fit between your older film camera lens and your digital camera body. There are many different kinds of adapters out there, and you need to have one that is appropriately chipped to fit your camera.
How to Use Film Camera Lenses on Digital Cameras
Many film photographers have older lenses that are left over from their film days. One of the most asked questions is how to use film camera lenses with their new digital cameras. It is very simple and will not cost you much to be able to use your film camera lenses on your new digital camera, provided your digital camera is an SLR camera that has interchangeable lenses. Many older film camera lenses are compatible with their digital SLR camera counterparts with an easy-to-use adapter that fits between the older lens and the digital camera body.
Things You'll Need
- Lens adapter
- Digital SLR camera
- Film camera lens
Screw the adapter onto your camera body. It will go on the same way the lenses go on your camera body. Align the appropriate marks on the camera body with the marks on the lens adapter and turn until it locks in place.
Screw your film camera lens onto the adapter the way you would normally attach it to a camera body. Align the appropriate marks on the adapter with the marks on the camera lens. Certain lens adapters have an optical glass that acts as a multiplier to your lens. This basically adds additional zoom to your lens.
Turn on your camera and start taking pictures. Most adapters only allow for manual focus, because older film lenses are usually manual focus. Take a few practice pictures to make sure you are familiar with all the controls and how the film camera lens works on your digital camera.

Steakhouses In Los Angeles County near the beach
Hello all,
I am looking for a good restaurant near the beach that serves a good steak. I see Geoffrey's in Malibu as a competitor but it is on a cliff? Is it possible to walk down the beach? Also how much would a steak dinner cost? The prices aren't listed.
Any other suggestions on a good restaurant near the beach that serves a good steak will be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Chez Jay may be an unconventional choice. It is near the beach. There are peanut shells on the floor. Place looks like a dive/bar. Yet, it is much beloved by those who know about it. Great drinks, delicious steaks. It's as much as Santa Monica institution as is Musso and Frank in Hollywood. All things considered, I prefer Chez Jay. .
re: maudies5
re: maudies5
I was thinking of Chez Jay, but it's really not that convenient to the beach. Yeah, you can walk to the beach, but it's not like it's right there. It's closer to the pier than the beach, actually.
I haven't been to a Chart House in 25 years ... but there is one in Malibu. Are the steaks at CH worth recommending to vmr?
There is also BOA steakhouse in Santa Monica. It's also on the other side of Ocean (like CJ) but maybe closer to the stairs down to the sand.
James Beach in Venice is not exactly a steakhouse, but there are a couple of steaks on their menu.
The truth is, there are miles and miles of beach in L.A. I'm sure someone will know of some places in Malibu or the South Bay or something like that.
Yes, you can walk down to the beach from Geoffrey's. A steak dinner for two (before tax/tip and drinks) will be easily $75-80 or more.
Might also consider The Lobster on the SM Pier. http://thelobster.com/index.html
Here's the Geoffrey's menu with prices
Looks like they're not really big on steaks and what they do offer is very pricey.
You also have Boa in Santa Monica. Not quite on the beach but on Ocean Ave and you can walk down to the beach or Santa Monica Pier.
Fonz's in Manhattan Beach. A good neighborhood steakhouse. Casual. One block walk from the beach and the Pier.
Fonz's Restaurant
1017 Manhattan Ave, Manhattan Beach, CA 90266
re: wienermobile
how about the bullpen in redondo, steakhouse and semi near a beach or Tony's on the pier
Hi All,
Thank you for all the recommendations so far. I am definitely going to check up on all of them.
I am looking for a nice restaurant to take a special lady to, to add on to my preferences. So somewhere nice and a good atmosphere.
Doesn't necessarily have to be a steakhouse but at least have that option on the menu since she loves steak.
How is gladstones in Malibu? The place looks impressive but isn't rated very high on yelp.
re: vmr016
Gladstone's is somewhere you really want to avoid.
re: wienermobile
Agree with wiener. Gladstone's isn't very good.
It's too bad, too. Because it has a great location. If it had a great kitchen it would be the most popular place around. Yet, it's crowded. So, I guess they don't feel the need to improve the food.
re: vmr016
gladstone's is terrible.
re: vmr016
The Sunset Restaurant may be an interesting choice. That is where Pippa Calland, the highly acclaimed and then newly-fired chef from Villetta is cooking. A friend of mine recently had dinner at The Sunset and said "Finally, Pippa is cooking her way and it is wonderful." I would definitely give The Sunset Restaurant a try.
re: maudies5
Ive got some friend ties to Sunset. You can put her in the newly-fired category there too. Apparently she doesn't do any cooking, let alone "her way".
You might want to consider The Lobster just above the Santa Monica Pier. Although seafood is their speciality they do have two steaks on their menu. A Grilled 12 oz. Prime Flat Iron Steak and a Pan Seared 8oz. Angus Filet Mignon.
The Lobster
1602 Ocean Avenue, Santa Monica, CA 90401
re: wienermobile
Malibu Chart House (Topanga Canyon and PCH) or even Moonshadows are also possibilities.
I haven't been in forever, but does anyone have an opinion of how Admiral Risty in Palos Verdes is these days? That's on cliffs, not on beach. You'd probably have to drive to get to one of the beaches in Malaga Cove area.
Admiral Risty
31250 Palos Verdes Drive West, Rancho Palos Verdes, CA 90275
For direct access to the beach - you really can't beat The Sunset - which is across from Zuma beach in west Malibu - and an easy, kick off your shoes and walk in the sand stroll out the door from the restaurant. The food is OK - not great, and runs to the expensi=ve side - but you can get a filet steak and priceless romance on the beach
re: pambrain
Another option in Malibu for real "sand between your toes" walk on beach after dinner - The Malibu Beach Inn has a restaurant that is pretty good, should have a steak option, and is right on the beach in mid-Malibu, with direct access to the beach from the terrace off the restaurant (if the weather is nice - dinner on the Terrace also is an option)
Much closer in to town that The sunset
re: pambrain
Also Dukes in Malibu: http://www.dukesmalibu.com/
re: vmr016
For a chain the Chart House is not bad and the LA locations all have nice views and a good salad bar.
Chart House Restaurant - Malibu
18412 Pacific Coast Hwy, Malibu, CA 90265
Chart House Restaurant - Marina del Rey
13950 Panay Way, Marina del Rey, CA 90292
Chart House Restaurant - Redondo Beach
231 Yacht Club Way, Redondo Beach, CA 90277
re: wienermobile
It doesn't look like the chart house website has a gallery to view pictures of the restaurant?
re: vmr016
The Malibu Charthouse is right above the beach on PCH. Redondo is also right on the beach next to the King Harbor Marina and is also just a few minute walk to the Redondo Beach Pier. Marina del Rey overlooks one of the channels of the Marina and has an outdoor patio.
re: wienermobile
So The Malibu Charthouse is right next to the beach which will give the opportunity to walk on after dinner?
re: vmr016
Yes. Topanga Beach is right next to it.
re: vmr016
Moonshadows had a menu renovation a couple of years ago and the food quality has improved considerably - the views are great (especially if you sit outside) but there is no opportunity to actually stroll on the beach

Here's an oddball out of the empire: A new British study suggests that a girl's "visual diet" affects attraction. Girls who attended same-sex schools were found to prefer more-feminine men. (For boys in all-male schools, there was little or no indication they preferred more-masculine girls.) Maybe it's a British thing?
Or a teenage girl thing? —PS
Girls who attend single-sex schools are more attracted to feminine looking boys, researchers have claimed.
The St Andrews University-led study suggested a girls-only education could have a "significant impact" on what the youngsters found attractive.

plenty of celery
- Danimal May 28, 2009 09:38 PM
I have a gallon bag of celery, sort of dated, cut crudite style. Suggestions on what to do with it? I only have a day or two left.
You could braise it as a side dish:
Braised Celery
Serves 4
Use some of the celery leaves, chopped, to garnish this dish, or save them for salads or for flavoring stocks, soups, sauces, and casseroles.
3 tablespoons butter
2 slices thick-cut bacon, chopped
1 small onion, finely chopped
1 carrot, finely chopped
1 celery head, cut into short lengths
6 ounces (3/4 cup) chicken stock
1 each bay leaf and parsley sprig
Salt and pepper to taste
1. Melt the butter in a large heavy pan, then cook the bacon, onion and carrot until beginning to color.
2. Add the celery and cook over a medium heat for 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the stock, bay leaf, parsley sprig, and salt and pepper and bring to a boil.
3. Cover and simmer gently for about 25 minutes, until the celery is tender and the liquid is reduced to a few tablespoons. Serve hot.
re: janniecooks
My wife likes to do a mixed braise of celery and fennel.
re: janniecooks
Anyone but me find this a "blast from the past"?
Used to be every staid basic American restaurant had "Braised Celery" as one of their side vegetables. Then it fell out of favor & never returned.
chop it, blanch it in some salted water, freeze it for adding to soup stock later. Or if you have a juicer, juice it and then you can freeze the juice for making a cream of celery soup.
If you want to use it now, use it in a stuffing/dressing.
Personally a big fan of celery stir fry. My dad does an awesome one --just wings it. Some recipes call for chinese celery - but regular works fine too. Here are two recipes that look tasty -- one shrimp, one plain:
* you can throw in cashews for protein if doing as a main instead of a side
Like the suggestion of celery soup as well -- lots of recipes out there -- here's one:
Melissa Clark offers this intriguing recipe for Celery Pudding Cakes with Strawberry Rhubarb compote:
re: bite bite
Here's an updated link for those Celery Pudding Cakes with Strawberry Rhubarb Compote
Thanks, all, for these celery solutions.
re: Pata_Negra
Ditto on the chinese beef and celery. Yum.
Make a nice light cream of celery soup with chix stock, shallot, leek, celery, and some potato or celery root. Puree, season well and finish it with a little cream. You can serve hot or cold. chives are a nice garnish
re: rozz01
I purposely buy celery when on sale to make a roasted mirepoix which I puree and keep in my fridge and or freezer. I use it in everything; soups, sauces, gravies, rice mixes...I brush it on meats and add it to other veggies when cooking. I use equal parts of peeled carrots, celery and it's leaves which has tons of flavor, and carrots. I cut everything up in 2-3 inch pieces and toss with a bit of olive oil then place on a baking paper or parchment lined baking sheet and roast in a 375F. degree oven for 10 minutes. I pull out the baking sheet and stir in 2-3 cloves of roughly chopped garlic (depending on how much you liike). Return veggies to oven for another 10 minutes or until fork tender.
Remove from oven and cool to room temp. Add the veggies and any pan juices to a food processor or blender. Drizzle in a couple tablespoons olive oil and process until smooth. Scrape puree into a covered container and refrigerate or freeze. You can season the puree with salt, pepper or whatever seasonings you like but because I like to be able to control the salt content in my dishes, I add the salt to each dish.
This makes a great base for a roasted veggie vinaigrette or stir a heaping tablespoon into mayo to spread on a sandwich or for a dip. So many possibilities!
re: Cherylptw
That sounds like a great idea!
re: rozz01
The mix is carrots, celery and onions (earlier post was a typo) add in the garlic halfway through cooking. I also forgot to mention that it lasts for weeks in the fridge with a bit of olive oil over the top
re: Cherylptw
thanks, great idea. I have a bunch of celery (forgot I had a new stalk and bought yet another one, and we're not celery lovers), so roasting and freezing is a good idea.
Mr. P.T. calls celery "bamboo," -- obviously not a fan, so anything I can do to camouflage it helps.
re: rozz01
I was trying to remember what Mom used to serve as Thanksgiving appetizers: always pickled herring, SauceSea type shrimp cocktail and something else. Bingo! Celery stuffed with cream cheese and sprinkled with paprika. Usually my job to put together too. None of the above go over at all with DHs family though, just enjoying the memory.
re: Harters
The soup freezes well or the celery freezes well? I assume you mean the soup.
re: Puffin3
That's odd - I always add some to stock, particularly the leaves, & have never had a "bitter note" present in the end result. Perhaps it depends on how much you add.
re: Bacardi1
Yah, the leaves seem to work better in stock than the ribs. Or lovage, which is sort of like stalkless celery.
For those stuffed celery ribs that coll suggested, you could up the flavor a bit by using smoked paprika. My family used to mix chopped green olives in with the cream cheese.
Also, there's the oldtime kids' favorite "Ants On A Log," peanut butter on celery topped with a row of raisins. You could do a more grownup version using cashew butter and golden raisins, or almond butter and dried currants.
re: eclecticsynergy
Naw - I always stick to my paternal grandmother's tradition of stuffing the ribs with softened blue cheese, which I adore.
re: Puffin3
Where I am in the world, celery is always a required ingredient when making stock.
re: Harters
I think it has a lot to do with where & how the celery was grown. I sometimes get a batch of carrots with a bitter taste, too. This is especially pronounced when I make fresh carrot juice so I've learned to be cautious.
That said, unless I'm working from a specific recipe I almost always use celery in my soups.
take a look at "celery fricassee" recipes over the Internet...
I sometimes substitute pork for chicken.
THE most delicious "cucina della nonna", or "cucina povera"...meaning po' folks food, or grandma's cooking....read on....
Braise that celery with garlic and olive oil, then add a (can?) or so of chicken stock. Add a can of cannolini beans undrained. Take this mixture and spoon it over a left over halved loaf of bread, drizzle with more olive oil, Italian oil-cured olives, flaked or large gain salt, and LOTS of finely ground black pepper. It's a complete protein when your bread is whole wheat, and amazing!
PS A sprinkle of romano wouldn't hurt!!

Niles Clark (left), portraying Gen. George Pickett, and Hank Van Lew as Gen. Henry Heth visit Goolrick's.
The Battle of Fredericksburg, which decimated the downtown business district 150 years ago, proved a bonanza for it last weekend.
Re-enactors and visitors attending sesquicentennial events filled area hotels, jammed restaurants and kept merchants' cash registers ringing.
"It was a very good and busy weekend," said Karen Hedelt, the city's director of economic development and tourism.
Since Fredericksburg isn't a corporate-run attraction like Disney World, there's no way to tell exactly how much money was spent in the area due to the 150th-anniversary commemoration, the annual Candlelight Tour or normal holiday shopping, she said. But hotel occupancy is a good indicator.
"We know our hotel occupancy was high, not just in the city of Fredericksburg but throughout the region," Hedelt said.
The Courtyard by Marriott at 620 Caroline St., for example, was fully booked weeks in advance of the 150th-anniversary commemoration, said Sharon Blanchard, sales manager.
Several re-enactors portraying officers involved in the battle stayed there, and a number of their uniformed "soldiers" stopped in at its bistro for a bite to eat. Members of the Irish Brigade, which suffered its most
"It was a different experience for us and real enjoyable for not only the staff but the guests," Blanchard said. "[The Brigade] is very proud of what they do. It sort of gets you involved in knowing your history. We love things like this happening."
The Fredericksburg Hospitality House in Central Park also was busy last weekend, both for the commemoration and for Christmas parties, said Bonnie Martin, director of sales and catering.
It also has more Civil War-related business this week. A Civil War tour group is arriving today, and the Central Virginia Battlefields Trust will be holding a banquet, she said.
Colonial Tavern, which bills itself as "Home to the Irish Brigade," had its busiest weekend other than on a St. Patrick's Day since it opened, said Terri Hubbell, an owner of the Irish restaurant and pub at 406 Lafayette Blvd.
"It was just a great event for the city," she said. "We couldn't even handle as many people as would have liked to have eaten and drank here because there wasn't enough room."
A highlight for her was a private party on the restaurant's second floor for current and retired members of the "Fighting 69th" of the New York National Guard, to which the lineage of the Irish Brigade has been officially assigned, along with Irish Brigade re-enactors. It included live music by The 6th New Hampshire Contra-Band, which plays Irish and Civil War tunes.
J. Brian's Tap Room at 200 Hanover St. also was slammed all weekend. Owner Jack Hyland said they prepared for more customers than normal, but weren't sure exactly how many to expect.
"We opened at 11 on Saturday, and three minutes after 11 we were packed," he said. "It was pretty much all hands on deck by noon because we were so crowded."
Hyland said his restaurant normally does about $5,000 worth of business over a weekend. Last weekend the take totaled about $8,000.
"I would say it was easily one of the five biggest days of the year," he said.
Over at Wally's Homemade Ice Cream Shoppe at 821 Caroline St., customers patiently waited in a line that stretched down the block to order ice cream, chili, Brunswick stew and other offerings last weekend, said owner Jeff Fults.
"It brought so many people downtown that it was fantastic," he said. "Any kind of event that can drive people downtown--the Fourth of July, New Year's Eve--I'm all in favor of."
The Griffin Bookshop & Coffee Bar at 723 Caroline St. was even busier than it was the day of the Christmas parade, said owner Eileen Boyd. She and her staff sold "a ton" of Civil War books, and sold out of those about the Battle of Fredericksburg.
She said she was impressed with how well all the events went off, and how the traffic situation was handled.
"There was an energy in the town that you could feel," she said. "I know that it was a re-enactment of the battle, but there was a crackling energy going up and down the streets. It was wonderful."
John Mitchell, who owns The Made in Virginia Store at 920 Caroline St. with his wife, Katherine, said he was twice as busy on Saturday as he'd normally be that time of year.
"The revenue was there," he said. "I call it cha-ching, cha-ching."
Mitchell also raved about how well the sesquicentennial events were handled, and said that customers were moved by the commemorative procession through town on Sunday with the sound of the cities' church bells ringing.
