Skeletons of the Deep
Ongoing Exhibition
The New Bedford Whaling Museum is host to four large whale skeletons, and one very special small skeleton. This page will link you to four other pages, each of which will focus on one particular species.
The skeletons that are on display came from animals that either died accidentally, or by undetermined circumstances. Although New Bedford is famous for its hunting of whales for nearly two centuries, we at the Museum did not hunt the animals on display.
Sperm Whale
Skeletons are important teaching tools for museums, science centers and aquaria. The sheer size of the skeletons inspires awe and gives a greater appreciation for their mobility. Viewing the skeletal structure allows for lessons in comparative anatomy and can forge a more personal connection with our mammal brethren. The presence of these specimens generates questions for staff and volunteers which then lead to an improved understanding of these animals and their natural history. Researchers, studying the condition of these bones, are able to determine information about the health of the animal just prior to its death.
The New Bedford Whaling Museum would like to acknowledge the major contributions of the Spring 2010 Teen Apprentices to the text and photographs on these pages.

Back in Haiti, is Aristide eyeing presidency?
Thousands welcomed former President Jean-Bertrand Aristide's arrival today in Haiti, less than 48 hours before a presidential election. The timing of his return potentially qualifies him to run in the next election.
Alexandre Meneghini/AP
Port-au-Prince, Haiti, and Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic
After seven years in exile, former President Jean-Bertrand Aristide today returned to Haiti and vowed to dedicate himself to his nation's health and education even amid fears that his presence will disrupt Sunday's election.
"My role is to serve you in love," the former priest said during remarks in which he switched between a handful of languages, including Creole and Zulu, the language of South Africa where he has lived in exile since a 2004 ouster.
Aristide, who became Haiti's first democratically elected president on a groundswell of support from the poor in 1990, remains a popular a political figure in Haiti. While he says he has no plans to reenter politics, the timing of his return would potentially qualify him to run for president in the next election under Haiti's residency rules, which say a candidate must reside in Haiti for the five years before the election.
"Aristide cannot return to Haiti without having a politically significant presence," says Ericq Pierre, a senior counselor for the Inter-American Development Bank in Haiti. "Politically he should be dead after two coup d'états. But now he looks stronger than ever."
Defying US
Aristide arrived to hordes of journalists and a few thousand cheering supporters. His wife, Mildred, who wept as she deplaned, actor and political activist Danny Glover, and a few others accompanied Aristide on the overnight flight from Johannesburg.
"This country needs education with dignity without social exclusion. The solution is inclusion," he said Friday.

Hey Kids! You're Cookin' Now!
A Global Awareness Cooking Adventure
Reviewed by
Dawn Farley
In this, her first book, author Dianne Pratt, has collected and presented over 80 healthy, easy to complete recipes. The recipes cover the full range from beverages, breakfast foods, lunch and dinner entrees to desserts and snacks. Complete and easy to follow directions are given for each. In addition numerous safety tips and helpful hints are also explained. The recipes feature foods sure to be popular with children and their entire families, with titles equally as appealing such as: Spaghetti Squiggles, Can't Wait Pizza Dough and Jellyfish Bowls. Kitchen Crafts and Experiments are included with play dough, dog biscuits, face paint and tie-dyed socks among many others.
The pages are decorated with soft full color illustrations and borders done by Janet Winter. The playfully illustrated animal characters are shown engaged in the cooking activities and crafts. Interspersed throughout the book are interesting bits of information regarding Cooking, Ecology, Earth and Animal Facts (hence the sub-title). These Facts convey the impact of decisions made when purchasing, preparing and disposing of kitchen products.
Parents and grandparents will find this a great book of recipes to use when cooking with the children in their families and may enjoy sharing the additional points of nature information as they spend time together in the kitchen. The index to recipes at the back of the book is a welcome inclusion. The combination of recipes, safety, animal art, kitchen crafts, experiments and ecology facts allow kids and their "adult helpers" to have a fun learning experience in the kitchen and beyond.

Every Friday during the season, NHL.com fantasy hockey expert Matt Cubeta will provide you with an in-depth analysis of fantasy right wings in our weekly segment: "Right of Way." From updated right wing rankings to guys you should keep a close eye on and much more, Cubeta will be your fantasy right wing expert all season long.
Slowly but surely, Corey Perry is starting to show that last season's 50-goal outbreak was no fluke. If anyone has watched the way he's been playing lately, they'd quickly realize how talented and how worthy he is to be mentioned among the game's most valuable players.
Forget about the fact he had 3 goals in the month of December and he's "only" on pace for 65 points this season. What matters is what he does right now, and right now, Perry is performing like he did last season. This is the most critical time for fantasy owners, and Perry is delivering for them in nearly every category.
It's been a bit of a roller coaster season for the Ducks forward with the end of November being his most consistent period of play -- Perry notched points in seven straight games (despite the Ducks losing all of those games) and had 10 points during that span. Throughout most of the rest of the season Perry has put up a goal here and there and often times found himself left off the score sheet.

Recipe of the Week - Oatmeal de Lexana
On my Did It post - someone asked if I had a new recipe. So here is the recipe of the week - now, I don't have a zillion recipes, so not sure how long this will last, so will need others to chime in. Not sure this qualifies but with all of the lovely new kitchens, we need a recipe box. Maybe we could create a recipe forum!
This recipe was adapted from the Stokely Creek Ski Touring Center Recipe book by Phyllis Burl
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Oil or butter the inside of a ceramic crock. I use a taller/narrower crock - more bowl shaped. Mix all dry ingredients together and then add the milk. Bake uncovered for 45-50 minutes and enjoy. I freeze the leftovers and reheat in MW
2 cups oatmeal
4 cups milk
Dash of salt
1/3 cup brown sugar (or maple syrup, etc)
1 cup chopped nuts - I usually use slivered almonds and either pecans or walnuts.
1/3 cup sunflower seeds (if desired)
1 cup dried fruit - for the michigan twist - I use cherries and apricots but you can use raisins or any other dried fruit.
1 tablespoon cinnamon
1 large unpeeled apple, cut into small pieces
Be creative - I never make the same batch - I vary the fruit and nuts!
The first time I had baked oatmeal was at a bed and breakfast in Lancaster, PA. It tasted like a delicious oatmeal cookie fresh out of the oven! Once I get my kitchen together I'll have to try this recipe. Thanks for sharing. :)
CK - I usually use steel cut or thick cut oats- sometimes with SC oats, you might need a bit more milk.
Also for the lactose group, I sometimes use almond milk.
Campy- I cut down the sugar from the original- but yes, I always think of Stokely creek every time that I make this,
Everyone wants me to bring to brunch pot lucks

Immigrant women constitute a varied and dynamic population in the United States with 51 percent or 21.2 million of the country's total foreign-born population. Examining key gender-based socioeconomic indicators from origin and fertility to educational attainment and immigration status, this Spotlight raises implications for sending and receiving countries, with respect to labor opportunities, family structure, gender roles, and more.
Read Article
Attention is now squarely focused on the U.S. federal courts where the legal battle over President Obama's executive actions on immigration continues. While congressional efforts to roll back the directives appear to have been put aside, at least temporarily, implementation of the signature deferred action programs announced in November 2014 remains blocked. The administration, however, is moving forward with other aspects of the executive order, as this article explores.
Faced with rising numbers of foreign entries (long- and short-term), China in 2012 adopted new legislation to manage its migration flows—the first reform to the country's immigration law since 1985. With an underlying tension in the legal framework between restricting immigrants deemed unwanted and welcoming those viewed as desirable, this feature examines the exit-entry law's key points.
An estimated 41.3 million immigrants lived in the United States in 2013, about 13 percent of the total U.S. population, constituting the world's largest foreign-born population. This Spotlight from MPI's Jie Zong and Jeanne Batalova offers the most current and sought-after data on immigrants in the United States—including origin, educational attainment, the unauthorized, deportations, and more—in one easy-to-use resource.
Migration has begun to follow the flow of capital after years of Chinese investment in major infrastructure projects in Zambia. This feature article, based on original research including the coding of 25,000 Zambian entry permits, examines the emerging migration pattern from China to Zambia, as Chinese migration to the country has increased 60 percent since 2009.
President Obama's sweeping executive action to shield as many as 3.7 million unauthorized immigrants who are parents of U.S. citizens or lawful permanent residents from deportation is facing tough legal and political challenges. This month's Policy Beat examines the efforts to proceed with implementation of DAPA and the expansion of DACA despite a lawsuit brought by a coalition of 26 states and staunch opposition in the Republican-controlled Congress.
Use this data tool—referred to as "one addictive interactive map"—to examine immigrant populations by country of origin and destination. Find out how many Americans live in Mexico, how many Ukrainians in Russia, or Filipinos in Saudi Arabia, for example.
Whether as migrant-sending or migrant-receiving locations—or both—many countries have rich, complex international and internal migration histories. MPI's online journal, the Migration Information Source, offers profiles of more than 70 nations. Written by leading scholars, these profiles delve into countries' migration histories, demographics, policymaking, and more.
The 535,000 Haitian immigrants residing in the United States in 2008 accounted for 1.4 percent of all U.S. immigrants and the fourth-largest immigrant group from the Caribbean. MPI's Aaron Terrazas examines their socioeconomic characteristics, where they live, and the size of the Haitian-born unauthorized population.
MPI's Muzaffar Chishti and Claire Bergeron report on the new "CIR-ASAP" bill, the H-1B visa program, new ICE policies for detained asylum seekers, and more.
In its newest five-year "roadmap" for justice and home affairs policy, the European Union has made migration a priority area. But while the Stockholm program offers plenty of detail on issues like illegal migration and asylum, it offers few specifics as to the final goal. MPI's Elizabeth Collett analyzes the program's action points and looks at challenges facing its implementation.
The 1.1 million Salvadoran immigrants residing in the United States in 2008 accounted for 2.9 percent of all U.S. immigrants, making them the second-largest immigrant group from Latin America. MPI's Aaron Terrazas examines their socioeconomic characteristics, where they live, and the size of the Salvadoran-born unauthorized population.
MPI's Muzaffar Chishti and Claire Bergeron report on EB-5 investor visas, audits of employers suspected of hiring unauthorized immigrants, the virtual border fence, and more.

Cherub did it again!
Those of you that were around last year might remember my Cherub that formed a seed pod in the absence of any other brugs. It was the only brug that was in the house and the blooms opened while it was inside. A couple weeks ago I put a Cherub with several blooms opening in the basement. They did start to open outside this time but they were on my front doorstep well away from any other brugs. They hadn't opened completely and while outside it had already gotten cold with a few nights of frost so there weren't many insects flying around anyway. It appears that it formed seed pods again. I guess that there's a remote possibility that it could have been pollinated while outside but last year there was no possibility of cross pollination. I called it my immaculate conception brug. lol BTW the only reason I brought this one in is because it didn't have a scent while inside. I can't stand the smell of brugs in an enclosed space.
Ruth Ann I bought this Cherub from somewhere several years ago. I can't remember but it was definitely a purchase, not a trade. I thought it was so odd that it developed a pod last year and the seeds were viable. B. arborea is the only self pollinating brug that I'm aware of. I wonder if this isn't a true Cherub? It's blooms are somewhat lighter then Cherub pics that I've seen but I always attributed that to temps as it always blooms very late in the season when temps have cooled. This is what my Cherub looks like. Does it look like it's properly identified?
It is beautiful. I know the bees have been pollinating mine. I have a ton of seed pods on Hawaiian Double White but doubt if any of them get to mature since I'm not digging that huge thing up. I will try to protect it as long as I can in the ground though since it is most likely crossed with Naughty Nick or Charles Grimaldi.
They look like different varieties. Not only the color but the shape of the bloom as well. Hmmmm??? I have a few seedlings but none have reached blooming size. The foliage on your plant looks so nice and full. Mine was kind of lanky this season, tall with a poof of foliage at the top. I don't remember what it's looked like in previous years.

Right now I have a query that returns the largest value for multiple 'classes' of data. I'm trying to figure out what to change so that my query will return the most recent value for each of the distinct classes below.
The data itself is a large table of student grades. A student can have grades in multiple terms (captured by the pgf.finalgradename field). For most students simply joining by the student identifier and the class identifier will return the correct data; however, I'm trying to account for situations where a student drops one section of a course and enrolls in another section (of the same course). For my purposes, we can assume that the most recently updated grade represents the preferred record.
In addition to the fields below there is a pgf.lastgradeupdate field that represents the date the record was updated. In English, what I'm hoping to get back is the most recent row based on pgf.lastgradeupdate. Given this data:
studentid course_number finalgradename percent lastgradeupdate 100 M900 H1 70 01-OCT-10 100 M900 H1 90 20-OCT-10 100 M900 H2 85 01-JAN-11 100 M900 H3 88 06-FEB-11 100 M900 H4 89 07-JUN-11
I would want the query to return:
studentid H1 H2 H3 H4 100 90 85 88 89
Here's what I have:
select cc.studentid,
max(case when pgf.finalgradename='H1' then pgf.percent else null end) as H1,
max(case when pgf.finalgradename='H2' then pgf.percent else null end) as H2,
max(case when pgf.finalgradename='H3' then pgf.percent else null end) as H3,
max(case when pgf.finalgradename='H4' then pgf.percent else null end) as H4
from cc
left outer join sections sect on abs(cc.sectionid) = sect.id
left outer join courses on sect.course_number = courses.course_number
left outer join pgfinalgrades pgf on cc.studentid = pgf.studentid and abs(cc.sectionid) = pgf.sectionid
where abs(cc.termid) >= 2000 and cc.course_number = 'M900'
group by cc.studentid
Do I need to make a subquery for each of those 'classes' of data? Or do I need to do a bunch of self joins? The other questions I read here only seemed to be based off of situations where only one date needed to be considered - not several. Thanks!

Regional Surf Report
Region: Seaford
Reporters location:
Coastalwatch surf reporters are the saltiest locals around. Part fish, part shark, part human, they live for the waves and are usually more local than the locals. They'll be up before dawn waiting for first light to reveal the days surf conditions and can sense a change of wind from a sparrows fart. Each reporter covers a region of coastline which includes many number of surf spots and beaches. Please consider there may be possible variations between this report and your local spot due to differences in orientation to the coast and any local idiosyncrasies that may also effect the swell and weather patterns.

Today's rating - Average
It's warm outside early with light NNE winds and clean conditions on the Mid Coast, and a few leftover lines of swell. Surf is around 1' on the reefs, and the tide's heading out until 11am. The lower tide will favour the beachies mid - late morning, but there's a chance of a few bumps from 15 knot North winds. A SW change is forecast to arrive after lunch, with winds shifting more Southerly by late arvo at around 20 knots. It'll be bumpy after the change, part sheltered spots like kiddie's korner might be an option for a small, late wave.

As Hilton honors member, I like to stay in the Hilton Family hotels unless Omni like Corpus Christi really entices you with their Republic of Texas on top floor. Very busy during summer as our grandson was to arrive, we did not have time to shop for our daughter for grandson's arrival. We did have to buy something that was not on her registry, that was thoughtful and small since her registry took precedence. What other place to go and live in Galleria and let your wife go shopping while availing all priveleges of Double Tree hospitality suite for HHONORS members. This hotel had the best fresh fruit, name brand wines and beers and excellent service next to none both in the evening before dinner and in the morning at break fast that my wife missed because we had sumptous dinner in the evening. Since we did not have to drive for dinner, one of us did not have to be designated driver, so we could finish whole bottle of wine between just two of us.
Best thing about Double Tree was not just its big suite, fully furnished kitchen that we did not touch except for refrigerator and prompt vallet service, check in and in room luncheon for my wife on Monday morning when I was at meetings. So if you have Friday and Monday to work in Houston and you want to shop, mix the pleasure and stay at Double Tree, you will enjoy it. Great service and really double the best experience better than going to Europe, if you have to be lazy and enjoy this is the place with over 40 sit in top class restaurants in walking distance, be it for Steak, Sea Food, Indian, Mediterranean or Italian, we enjoyed all five from Friday evening to Sunday night. Try you will love Double Tree. Clean, best service, reght temperatures for all (we set our room at 68 F) and great HHonors lounge for breakfast and Hors d hours reception. We enjoyed it and will do so next chance we get, may be before Christmas

Aw, c'mon, guys, it's just one of those unfortunate employee photos, probably pulled from the files by some Disney PR dweeb and given to the press at the last minute.
Let's give the guy a break, he's got just as wide a dynamic range as any other DL President, and lots more than Ed Grier.
Look, here's a picture of George taken at the gala DCA opening night management party...
And an action shot as he was running to brief the press during that unfortunate yeast explosion at Le Cheese Shoppe in DLP's Fantasyland...
And a candid snap of his reaction just seconds after Cynthia Harris tripped in front of that ODV cart and landed head-first in a bucket of churro batter...

Disney may have finally found the grail. You don't need

And this candid shot of George watching the Halloween Screams fireworks:
And this reaction right after Iger's call letting him know he got the job:
On hearing that an attraction based on it is in the works, George sat down and watched The Little Mermaid:
This photo of George was widely circulated on the Internet and purportedly shows him at a surprise birthday party thrown for him by the cast at Disneyland Paris:

^^^^^^ lol!
Can this photo be the next photo for the photoshop competition???
We could photoshop him having fun in the parks!
I guess playing "wait and see" just isn't a logical choice for the micechatters.
Those of us who still have "Sucker" stamped on our foreheads from that little debacle are understandably less eager to welcome an exec who was high on the food chain at such paragons of un-Disney magic as DCA and DLP.
EDIT: By the way, as of today there are 32,767 MiceChatters, including you and me. No offense, but you wouldn't be falling into that increasingly popular but intellectually lazy habit of lumping all MiceChatters' opinions together, wouldya?

OK, just added a thread for a competition:
Photoshop competition: George Kalogridis at DLR
Where's the new president from? And he does look serious there, lol'd at the commentaries!
Mr Wiggins... so wrong... but oh so funny... I know I shouldn't endorse judgments based on appearance but it bothers me that this is the "best" press release photo they could come up with. It's still better then Ed though... about the only photo we had was a blurred image of a guy running off stage!
"Happiness is a Low Water Level"
"Creating magical memories and making Managers cry since 1955!"
However, all shtick aside, the truth is that we don't know jack about George. I (and I suspect others) are lampooning him based on a bad publicity photo, which isn't his fault; and our memory of the damage done to the Park by a previous president and his regime, which also is not his fault. At the end of the day, we do have to wait and see what happens.
In the meantime...
Somebody please tell me where I can get a tie like that.
