Eggs Benedict and Eggs Florentine from scratch: blender hollandaise and buttermilk english muffins adapted from Michael Ruhlman
The plant usually bears white flowers with yellow centers, hence the name "poached egg plant", but flower color can vary across subspecies. It is a popular ornamental plant. It attracts hoverflies to the garden to beat the aphids and is well loved by bees. It is self-seeding, and gardeners are often careful as to where the seeds fall as it will quite happily grow in a lawn.

Soft boiled egg from dad's chicken.
Steeped in boiling water for 9 minutes to just thicken the egg yolk, but still oozy. Next time, maybe 7 or 8 minutes will do.

A bear found primarily in the tropical rainforests of Southeast Asia.
The Sun Bear stands approximately 1.2 m (4 ft)or maybe larger in length, making it the smallest member in the bear (Ursidae) family. Males tend to be 10-45% larger than females; the former normally weigh between 30 and 60 kg (66-132 lb), and the latter between 20 and 40 kg (44-88 lb). The Sun Bear possesses sickle-shaped claws that are relatively light in weight. It has large paws with naked soles, probably to assist in climbing. Its inward-turned feet make the bear's walk pigeon toed, but it is an excellent climber. It has small, round ears and a stout snout. The tail is 1.2-2.8 inches (3-7 cm) long. Despite its small size, the Sun Bear possesses a very long, slender tongue, ranging from 8 to 10 inches (20-25 cm) in length. The bear uses it to extract honey from beehives. They also do not cry.
Unlike other bears, the Sun Bear's fur is short and sleek. This adaptation is probably due to the lowland climates it inhabits. Dark black or brown-black fur covers its body, except on the chest, where there is a pale orange-yellow marking in the shape of a horseshoe. Similar colored fur can be found around the muzzle and the eyes. These distinctive markings give the Sun Bear its name.
The diet of the Sun Bear varies widely and includes small vertebrates, such as lizards, birds, and other mammals, in addition to fruits, eggs, termites, the young tips of palm trees, nests of bees, berries, sprouts, insects, roots, cocoa, and coconuts. Its powerful jaws can crack open nuts. Much of the Sun Bear's food must be detected using its keen sense of smell, as its sight is poor.
The Sun Bear does not hibernate, and, as a result, it can reproduce year-round. The offspring reach sexual maturity after 3-4 years and may live up to 30 years in captivity. A female Sun Bear can produce 1 to 2 cubs per year. Sun Bears undergo a roughly 96 day gestation period after which the 300 to 400g cub is born blind and hairless. The cub is initially totally dependent on its mother and suckling can continue for about 18 months. After 1 to 3 months, the young cub can run, play and forage near its mother. Females are observed to mate at about 3 years. During time of mating, the Sun Bear will show behavior like hugging, mock fighting and head bobbing with its mate.
Being a primarily nocturnal creature, the Sun Bear tends to rest during the day on lower limbs not far above the ground. Adult Sun Bears have almost no predators except humans, due to their fierce reputation and formidable teeth. Occasionally, they may be overwhelmed by tigers, or large reticulated pythons. Other possible predators include the leopard, the clouded leopard, and the Sun Bear's larger sympatric relative, the Asiatic Black Bear. The bear's loose skin on its neck allows it to wriggle its body inside its skin far enough to turn around and bite its attacker when grabbed.
The recent decline in the Sun Bear population can be largely attributed to the hunting of "nuisance bears" that destroy crops and widespread poaching driven by the market for their fur and for their bile, which is used in Chinese medicine.
First time cooking "froached" eggs: Fried + poached. The poaching is accomplished in sous vide: 12 minutes at 75C, then ice bath.

A female Masai giraffe at the Cleveland Zoo, one of the Cleveland Metroparks in Cleveland, Ohio, in the United States.
There is only one species of giraffe, but nine sub-species.
There are just 23,00 Masai giraffes left in the wild. The population has declined 52 percent in the last 30 years due to hunting and poaching.
The Masai giraffe (Giraffa camelopardalis tippelskirchii), also called Kilimanjaro giraffe, is the largest subspecies of giraffe. It is the tallest animal in the world, with females reaching 17 feet and males 20 feet in height.
The Masai giraffe is native to East Africa and has distinctive, irregular, jagged, star-like blotches which extend to the hooves.
All giraffes are born with horns, which are made or bone (not cartilage or keratin, as with rhinos or deer). The horns on males are bare, while female horns are tufted. In Masai giraffes, a lump between the horns is usually present in males.
Females come into heat every 12 to 15 days and give birth once every two years. The average gestation period is 457 days. The number of offspring is almost always one, though twins do occur. Calves are weaned at around 12 months, and are sexually mature about age 5 (for females) to 7 years (for males). Giraffes live 20 to 25 years in the wild, although they often live to age 30 or more in captivity.
Giraffes spend 17 to 20 hours a day browsing. They need only 5 to 30 minutes of sleep in a 24-hour period. They usually sleep standing up, napping for only a minute or two at a time. When a giraffe is young, or feeling very secure, it may lay on the ground and rest its head on its rump to nap.
A giraffe's tongue is 18 to 20 inches long, and blue-black in color. The tongue and lips are prehensile, allowing it to eat leaves from spiky or thorny trees.
Giraffes have excellent eyesight, hearing, and smell. They are swift runners, and can go from zero to 35 mph in less than two seconds. Giraffes are good jumpers, but cannot swim.
It is a myth that the giraffe is mute. Giraffes can moo, hiss, roar, and whistle.
Perfect if you don't feel like eating bread anymore.

"Poached Escolar, Broccolini, Potato Crisps, Bearnaise Sauce."
This dish has been photographed and described by numerous Flickr members, although this picture taken by Ulterior Epicure, and the description thereto remain my personal favorites.
Escolar was poached sous-vide in Extra Virgin Olive Oil, at 54C for only 5 minutes, and was served rare with blanched broccolini ( original recipe calls for sea beans) and crispy banana potato chips.
Curious Detail: escolar sells for about $8.-/lbs wholesale, while sea beans sell for about $15.-/lbs, and it's still a hard-to-find item - this gives me an idea how particular "Le Bernardin" is to the quality of their ingredients.
Put the ramekin into the pot and fill with enough water so it comes to about a half inch below the lip of the ramekin. Leave the ramekin empty. It might float a bit.
Close the lid, wait for the water to boil and the ramekin to heat up.
Here in South Africa, we lost 333 rhinos to poaching in 2010. And things are not looking up this year. Five incidents of poaching were recorded in just the first ten days of 2011. If you’re in the dark about the poaching crisis, you’ll find some need-to-know facts in our slick infographic (click to enlarge).
