GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
Our son went to the Healey for four years during a period of significant turmoil. The school administration eliminated the Choice Magnet Program while he was there, forcing a "unification" of the magnet school with the neighborhood school. While the goal was noble, the implementation was very sudden and awkward, and many good parents pulled their kids out of the school. At the same time, the principal changed essentially every year. In the end, I think the place has settled down somewhat. I appreciated the diversity and the building itself, which is very nice. But educationally my kid was not challenged to his full potential.
The Healey School has the most dedicated and active parent populations in the CIty, which has helped the school tremendously despite a lack of consistent leadership over the past 10 years. While many teachers and families have left over the last few years, those who have remained are a tight-knit community.
The Healey School is a diverse urban school that values the arts, community involvement, and off-site learning. Grades 4-8 participate in offsite, overnight learning, including Nature's Classroom and educational experiences in New York CIty and Washington, D.C.
I am very excited about the core values that the school is updating the curriculum to embody: expecting excellence from oneself, reading comprehension, arts integrated into learning, thematic project based learning, and service projects. As a community, we want our children to be prepared to be good citizens and leaders in today's world. There is a lot available on the school website which is very transparent the curricular and learning environment goals. The unification process to combine different "schools within a school" into an integrated Healey has been exciting and productive opportunity for teachers, administration, students and parents voices to be heard. I think this school is poised to become a real star in our community.
Parents of the Choice program are very active at this school. They have created a website for it at: http://www.thechoiceprogram.org
I visited the afterschool programs with Groundworks Somerville and saw the Healey students excited to paint, draw, play basketball, do homework and socialize in a huge bright cafeteria. Very nice group of youth, diverse, smart and quick. The wall mural was designed by the youth and features countrys produce and portraits
The Healey School is such a wonderful place for children to learn and enjoy the school experience. I especially love the Choice program which promotes hands on learning and high parent involvment.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Monday, Jan. 14, 2013:
This year many opportunities appear; however, with them come many reasons not to take advantage of them. If you want the end results, trust yourself and the path you must take. You will hop over several obstacles; you will get there. If you are single, come summer 2013, your love life will become very lively. You will either have a ball dating, or you'll find yourself in a meaningful relationship. If you are attached, the two of you need to plan several getaways together in order to stoke the embers of romance. Aquarius is quirky, yet he or she understands you well.
The stars show the kind of day you'll have: 5-dynamic, 4-positive, 3-average, 2-so-so, 1-difficult.
ARIES (March 21-April 19)
(One star) Your dreams will be inspirational, and they could set you on a path of soul searching. As a result, you'll be calm and centred. Others approach you with a willingness to share and be more vulnerable. You might rethink your impression of an associate. Tonight: Do your thing.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20)
(Three stars) Zero in on what is important to you. Your perspective about a cohort could be transforming, as you open up to each other more and more. Still, this person might be withdrawn. Curb a tendency to be excessive. Tonight: Where your friends are.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20)
(One star) Your take-charge attitude might emerge. Tap into your creativity, and manifest much more of what you want. Let someone be a little more involved with your decision-making process. Transform a difficult situation into a shared experience. Tonight: In the limelight.
CANCER (June 21-July 22)
(Three stars) Keep reaching out to someone at a distance whom you trust, and who often provides diverse and sometimes opposing viewpoints. A child might act closed off. This attitude could be necessary, as he or she seems to be going through a phase. Tonight: Feed your mind.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)
(One and half stars) Deal with a partner or associate directly. This person might be unusually plugged into his or her imagination. It could be difficult to communicate at times. Try a very anchored and solid approach, and he or she will respond. Tonight: Go with someone's suggestion.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
(One and half stars) Others seem to have everything under control and are not willing to let go. Do your own thing rather than feel left out. Of course, someone might be looking for you. This person's search could be a problem if it involves work. Do not cut off communication. Tonight: Do not be alone.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
(One star) You have a lot of ground to cover, and you'll get it all done unless you start worrying about a problem and/or a financial matter. Be willing to revise your boundaries for a day and see what happens. You might want to make a conscious change. Tonight: Burn the midnight oil.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
(One and half stars) You have a tremendous amount of self-discipline, should you decide to use it. Your imagination seems to be an endless source of ideas, though they might not necessarily be related to what is going on around you. Work on staying present. Tonight: Spice up the moment.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
(One star) You might have a hard time getting started, which could be for the better. If you can work from home, do. You also might need to work on some other project that you do not have time for normally. If you run into a roadblock, back off. Tonight: Do not push yourself.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
(Three stars) Your words have far more impact than you realize. You might not see their effect immediately. You could cause a major transformation with just a few sentences. No fighting is necessary — just your voice and mind. Tonight: Head home after visiting with several friends.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
(One star) You might want to do what you feel. Think about it, as sometimes taking care of oneself requires some indulgence. Your perspective about an older friend, relative or boss is changing. Try not to be reactive to this person. Step back, if you must. Tonight: Treat yourself. (One star)
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)
(One and half stars) Follow your intuition as well as your intellect, because both elements of your personality target what you want, just in different ways. Someone at a distance could be acting cold toward you. A meeting with friends or associates will be pivotal. Tonight: As you like.

OCEAN CITY, Md. (AP) - The Shepherd's Crook food pantry has found a temporary location home on Ocean City's boardwalk after a fire destroyed its location at St. Paul's By-The-Sea.
The food pantry is now open in Conner's Beach Cafe on the Boardwalk, less than a block away from the church, on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays. The pantry operated out of a mini-van after the November fire at the parish hall.
Pantry administrator Bruce Young says most of their regulars have found the new location. There isn't room for the racks of clothing, but volunteers keep some on hand to fulfill requests.
Young says they are grateful to church members and cafe owners Kevin and Jackie Ball, who offered the space since the cafe is typically closed until mid-February.

They are just as easy as they look. Cook up a bunch of asparagus just for a few minutes…you want them to still have a nice crunch. Now mix up some whipped cream cheese (the whipped kind is a lot fluffier and easier to work with than the regular) with some horseradish, and spread it over as many thin slices of roast beef as you want. Pop an asparagus spear in the middle, roll it up and yes! You're done.
I like to arrange mine on a pretty platter and scatter some scallions over the top, even if it is only us and a Wednesday night. Light a few candles, open a bottle of wine, and appetizer for dinner night might turn into a Regular Thing!

FORT WAYNE – The lone goal of the exhibition game Thursday night between Washington and Michigan State came off the kind of play only the best teams in the country can make.
Washington's Andy Thomas surged down the left sideline before sending a crossing pass to Mason Robertson, who, with his back to the goal, touched a pass to Darwin Jones.
Jones then fired the ball into the left side of the net in the 29th minute at the Fort Wayne Sport Club.
It was a buildup play, and I knew I had to get my run into the box.
The ball came across and the player, Mason Robertson, laid it off, and I just had to smash it in, said Jones, whose Huskies are ranked sixth in the nation after a 16-2-4 record last season.
Washington will play another game in the Shindigz National Soccer Festival on Saturday night against Indiana, but there will be plenty of college, high school and club games before then.
Among the games today is a 6 p.m. match between Ohio State and Marquette's men, and at 4 p.m. Saturday, IPFW plays Xavier.
They will all be hard-pressed to live up to the game Thursday, which was watched by about 1,000 people and saw Washington possess the ball for most of the game.
It's great for us to get out here to play a couple Big Ten teams and a couple of perennial powers, said Washington coach Jamie Clark, who along with Michigan State coach Damon Rensing decided to tack on an extra 10 minutes of scoreless play to give their substitutes some time on the pitch.
It was our first game, so after 65 minutes it lost its luster a little and you put in a lot of guys. But you couldn't ask for a better exhibition.
Washington came a long way for the festival, flying into Chicago, practicing in South Bend and then busing to Fort Wayne. Why make the trip just for exhibitions?
High level of competition, Clark said. You could play 10 teams in the Midwest and always get a good game. It's just new faces. It's fun to play new teams. We promise our guys when they come in that we'll try to find them every opportunity and avenue to give them these sorts of games.
Robertson had the first great scoring chance of the game, in the 16th minute, but it sailed just wide of the left goalpost.
Shortly thereafter, Adam Montague of 10th-ranked Michigan State split the defense and fired a low shot that was stopped by goalkeeper Spencer Richey.
In the 42nd minute, Montague had a better chance, when he kicked a crossing pass out of mid-air, but Richey made a diving stop to preserve the 1-0 lead.
I was very pleased with our performance. We did well, Jones said. We started off well and stayed pretty strong. The competition was great, too. Michigan State didn't let us down at all.

How do I enable the 3D? is this really the extended version that has 3D? i have tried installing 3 other torrents so far. before i try this one i wanna make sure it has 3d
@rainbowfied Page 2 has some instructions from the uploader on how to enable 3D.
I have tried everything in the book, all to no avail. I have tried thethingy's torrent at all, and every time the outcome is the same. I disable Internet, install trial version of Photoshop CS6, after installing I open it and instead of asking me if I want to start a trial it tells me I'm already part way through. And for this reason it doesn't seem to enable the extended version of Photoshop, only the regular version. I know this because I've successfully installed the program on my other computer, using the EXACT same method, and the extended version worked fine. FYI, the accepted way of installing is generally as follows: 1. Disable Internet 2. Run setup 3. Install as trial version 4. After install has finished, run Photoshop CS6 (the splash screen will show Photoshop CS6 Extended) 5. When you've run it, accept the offer to start your trial 6. Close Photoshop, copy cracked amtlib.dll file into Program files > Adobe > Photoshop CS6 folder 7. Congrats, you now have the extended CS6 version of Photoshop; you can now re-enable Internet However, this method simply doesn't work for me on this computer. The only explanation I can come up with is that my installing other torrents of Photoshop has somehow stored a file on my computer that lets Adobe know I've already started my trial. Now from this point onward I can never get the Extended version to load up, only the regular. It would be a miracle for me to ever see the splash screen read 'Photoshop CS6 Extended', or to see the '3D' tab in the Photoshop tools menu. It is simply impossible on my computer (which is Win 7 Ultimate x64, btw) I have attempted to delete every instance of any Adobe file on my computer. I have used CCleaner to clean through all files and DLLs. I have uninstalled literally all Adobe programs (even non-creative software like Flash Player and Shockwave). I have gone to Appdata > Roaming and removed any file with the name 'Adobe' or any reference to Adobe. I've run Adobe's file cleaner tool. I've Also deleted the entire Temp folder in Appdata. I've undone all changes made by the Adobe Tool in thethingy's torrent. Clearly these are desperate actions, and still, I am unable to get the extended version. Never ever. It boggles my mind because the process I take on this computer never works, yet it works perfectly on my other computer (exact same OS, architecture, very similar hardware). This has to be a software problem, and I've spent over 50 hours (over the course of about a month) trying to figure out what the software problem is. I am convinced that no torrent for CS6 Extended will ever work for me, so really the only option now is to reformat my entire HDD, do a fresh install of Windows, etc. That is the only way I can reliably get rid of whatever shit-ass file Adobe has left behind to spy on my trial status from previous installations. Know that if you've tried everything with no success, you're not alone. This extended version of Photoshop is a fucking pain in the ass to enable, and I can assure you 100% that it's not simply a result of not following instructions properly. Adobe are sneaky bastards with their software, one of the reasons these installation processes are so meticulous (for example, having to run the software before applying crack). tl;dr Have countless times on this computer to install Extended -- never works. Regular Photoshop is easy to install, but extended, never. I have tried this exact same installation process on another computer that has never had any creative Adobe programs installed on it before, and the installation worked fine, perfectly activated extended edition of Photoshop CS6. Fuck it, but any possible suggestions would be appreciated as I am not prepared to reformat my HDD to solve this.
@Ching_Liu Hello. I have followed your torrents for years and have only great lifesaving experiences....But I call on you for far away corners of the map...I need some help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! T-Seps 3.0 is a PhotoShop plugin that I can do without...It runs for around 6...700$.............I need a crack or a patch or a keygen.................HELP!!!!! PLEASE!!!!!!

Women who breastfeed their babies may have a better shot at beating the "baby blues."
10% to 20% of new moms suffer from some form of post-partum depression.
Sleep deprivation and hormones play roles, but many new moms also experience an increase in inflammation.
Researchers say breastfeeding and Omega-3 fatty acids could help lower that inflammatory response and stress levels.
Unfortunately, depressed mothers tend to quit breastfeeding earlier than other moms.

Magpies hold funerals for fallen feathered friends
A University of Colorado scientist has claimed that magpies hold "funerals" for fallen friends, demonstrating that they're all a lot more touchy-feely than they might appear. Dr Marc Bekoff observed four magpies alongside a fallen comrade, and recounted: "One approached the corpse, gently pecked at it, just as an elephant would …
"We can't know what they were actually thinking or feeling,.."
Cough! Splutter!
Higher Education has come to this!
Mine's the one with a quarter ounce of Nepalese Temple Balls in the pocket ... I'm off to enjoy a quiet smoke in the countryside away from these educated types.
Don't get me wrong, I've seen elephants pining for a deceased family member on wildlife documentaries, but birds fetching some grass to lay it by the corpse? Why, exactly? That's the kind of thing people might do to 'provide for them in the afterlife', like when a person is buried in nice clothes or with treasured belongings etc. Is it possible that the sentiment is to provide a nest - i.e. 'Rest in Peace'?
if true, consider my ghast to be well and truly flabbered...
It's not April 1st is it?
A carrion eater pecking at carrion?
Shocking proof of reflective emotions right there.
Not surprised
Really, it is incredibly stupid of humans to assume that only they have emotions or belief system of any sort.
After all, crows have been observed *making* tools, something that a lot of our monkey cousins don't appear to be able to manage, so why not extend that forward thinking to the other areas of life (and death)?
No "monkey boy Balmer" icon, so BillyG had to do.
Burying a Good Story!
What a load of nonsense! Magpies are part of the Crow family, notorious carrion eaters. They were pecking the dead Magpie to see if it was tasty, having decided it was they brought some salad to their table. When they flew off they were all going to find a decent Cabinet Sauvignon. Once they had carried that back then the truth would have been revealed but the researcher had left by then to write about Magpie funerals. Magpie dinner parties more like!
It's quite simple. The Magpies in question had clearly seen Saturday Morning Kitchen and were using the grass to impart flavour to the carcass. Had he hung around long enough, he'd have seen them return to devour their fallen comrade, washed down with a nice Chablis.
@Dan 10
Wouldn't that be "Nest in Peace"?
I'll get my coat...
Bad biology?
<< Bekoff dismissed the idea that such observations were merely cases of anthropomorphism, and defended: "It's bad biology to argue against the existence of animal emotions." >>
He obviously doesn't know what anthropomorphism means. Criticism on such grounds isn't arguing against the existence of animal emotions; rather, it's arguing against the existence of human emotions in animals.
Using phrases like "the only obvious conclusion" and "no reason not to believe" smacks of bad science to me. A couple of seconds thought on the disabled elephant led me to a slightly different but no less obvious conclusion - even disabled, an angry elephant is still a quite formidable opponent against predators so the herd made a decision that it was better off with than without. This isn't "caring" for an individual elephant, it's a simple value judgement that fits in well with herd mentality.
I hate this kind of biology with totally off the wall yet pseudo human interest conclusions like these. It's not so much the behavioural observation that I object to but the anthropic layer that seems to be added purely for media satiation.
Right, I'm off to read the not exactly media friendly and conclusionless ignoble winning duck story again to cheer myself up: http://moeliker.wordpress.com/the-duck/
a large slice of anthropomorphizing
It sounds like an awfully like wishful thinking / anthropomorphizing. I'm not sure that macro observational evidence can provide a valid route to an understanding of the inner mind of the magpies and other birds.
I don't necessarily assume animals don't have an awareness of death, but ritualising a funeral is taking it to another next level of assumption.
At best I would say it has no more credibility then the scenario that the birds were waiting for the dead bird to respond/move/react. They poked it, nothing happened. They brought something which might stimulate the bird into reacting. Could have been food, something shiny, or some nesting material. Still nothing happened. The birds stood there, waiting for something to happen and it didn't. One by one they flew off because we were observing the limited concentration span of individual birds. The first bird to go was the one that decided/realised nothing of interest was going to happen so it might as well go off and do other activities. The other birds came to the same conclusion at different times and subsequently flew off at different times.
Why do humans have funerals? Off the top of my head I would say the reasons are either religious, legal or for some sort of 'closure' to help the living come to terms with the death.
I can only imagine the last reason being the one that might be applicable to the magpies.
Is it a learned behaviour? Would a magpie family brought up in captivity spontaneously display this behaviour if they had not seen it being done before…?
I'll be happy to be proved wrong if sometime in the future we have evidence to the contrary, but at this stage I think we are clutching at straws.
The evidence mounts...
...that the Magpie Conspiracy is nearing launch day.
You had all better be ready to welcome your Corvid overlords.
two for joy...
I for one, welcome our Magpie overloads.
Film please
or it didn't happen.
Were they whistling
another one bites the dust, or simply the best?
@bad biology
I love to here his thoughts on the gay necro-duck too.
The Birds
It's all very Alfred Hitchcock to me.....
But was it a religious or secular service?
And did they play Tina Turner or "My Way"?
Enquiring Bishops need to know!
Further data required.
If they'd used their beaks to dig a little hole, shoved their buddy in it, covered him over, erected some kind of stick monument and had an owl divide up the dead magpie's belongings between the other birds, I'd've been more convinced about the theory.
But then again that's the good thing about theories, you can look at the evidence and make up any shit you like as long as you think it fits.
Bad scientist!
Never seen it
and I've shot hundreds.
Have you forgotten...
... that Humans are animals as well?
Makes me laugh, the search for extra terrestial intelligence (SETI), would we in our arrogance even recognise "other" intelligent life? Even when the intelligence may well be right here on our own planet, among the birds.
Yes they're carrion eaters but they're also some of the brightest birds going.
Whether the birds in the observation were having an empathic response to a "fallen comrade" or just making sure "Old Bob's really dead" or even what he tastes like... we may never know.
Bad science would be to draw some kind of conclusion that the birds were holding funeral rites ... surely before you could even begin to make that claim you'd need to study families of magpies over a prolonged period of time to see if they exhibited any other behaviour that could be attributed to a form of empathy - particularly with other members of their species.
If they display no other empathic responses it's highly unlikely that giving poor ol' dead Bob a bit of a poke had anything to do with loss or mourning... perhaps to do with curiosity - which Magpies are renowned for.
@ Paul Crawford
Making a tool doesn't give you a belief system - with all the cosmological and eschatological explanations that come with a belief system. All it means is that you can make a tool.
Confusing the two means that you can't tell the difference between them, and possibly think one substitutes for another.
You really are a plonker, Rodney.
Re: corvids
Pigeons don't seem to care about their dead. I saw one perched on the dangling body of another which had come a cropper sticking its head through the window of a derelict building. Must have been more comfy to sit on.
There are plenty cases of dogs keeping vigil next to dead people or other dogs and all that so it wouldn't surprise me to see that some of the more intelligent other animals do similar.
Don't predators pick on the sick and lame? If I was wondering around the Serengeti I'd like to do it with someone in worse condition than me too.
Funerals and beliefs
Why does everyone assume that human funeral rites had their origins in religion? If these observations were repeated, we could posit instead that various behaviours contributed to it:
1. Check the bugger's dead.
2. Whee-yoo -- go and do something with that cadaver, it's stinking the place out.
3. Communities that buried or burned their dead lived longer cos of lack of disease.
4. Communities that buried or burned their dead lived longer cos the local predators didn't develop a taste for human flesh.
The religious elements -- providing for the afterlife, appeasing angry gods, showing respect for the spirit -- could have been mere post-facto rationalisation.
(Disclaimer: I am actually religious, it's just that I accept the legitimacy of anthropological inquiry. Knowing the biological or psychological basis for belief neither confirms nor denies that belief.)
Hang on...
A magpie just flew down and put some grass on my shoulder............
Funeral my ass!!!
Having said that, I've heard it said that crows are monogamous and I have seen solitary crows keeping vigil near dead partners.
Where I live currently I've also seen regular battles between the crows and magpies with up to 20 birds involved (usually in spring when the magpies, having babies to protect, get very territorial).
I have no doubt crows and magpies have some familial instincts, but claiming they have funerals just smacks of anthropomorphism.
Mick Robertson ?
Oh, its the birds...I thought you were talking about Mick Robertson, Jenny Hanley et al
Re: Bah
It's semantics really though isn't it. What is a funeral? What are the basic components once you take away things only humans can bring to them? Of course taking that literally is absurd as is suggesting animals have anything approaching religion, but they have what you could describe as rituals - mating rituals, eating rituals. No reason why they shouldn't have some rudimentary death rituals. It's just headline-grabbing shorthand to refer to them as 'funerals'.
Social animals
Same sort of behaviour has arisen in most forms of social animal, one imagines. Strange that we equate emotional or social attachment with intelligence and the capacity for abstract thought and self awareness. We evolved as social animals long before our brains got big by chowing down on more protein-rich savanna-fodder. And the clever stuff came later.
Go to the back of the class, you.
@Sarah Bee
"but they have what you could describe as rituals - mating rituals, eating rituals. No reason why they shouldn't have some rudimentary death rituals."
Mating rituals have evolved many times through sexual selection. eg. I'm better than him because I have a longer tail proving my superior health and resistance to disease/parasites so mate with me and have good babies!
I have never heard of the term eating rituals but I suppose you may mean the way, for example, alpha males in lion prides (and other species) eat first. This is not so much a ritual but more in the way of "I'll bite your feckin' head off if you try and eat my food!" - The rest of the pride are being submissive and protecting themselves by waiting till Alpha is full.
Not to say there isn't but I can't see much evolutionary advantage in a magpie having a "funeral"/ritual. Could it be that the magpie with the grass was on its way elsewhere when it saw the commotion again and went to investigate thinking food or mating.
Magpies are also attracted to others for feeding/mating/fighting and fly in groups. If you ever set a Larsen trap (with one egg) you will find 3 or 4 magpies in there the next day as one flies in and gets trapped in a cage and others go to see what is happening and get trapped in neighbouring cages (with no eggs). Repeat.
Nice waste of a grant!
Magpies pining? Balls! They were probably trying to see if the lazy sod would get up and move again, after he didn't, he thought sod it and left him to the crows! Not saying other animals don't have feelings, but funerals? Do me a favour!
On a lighter note...
One of the best books I have ever read, "What Happens After We Die".
Fantastic read, nice light read all about the rituals and basic medical details of human death. Really fascinating, when my Mum passed on really helped me get through it a lot more easily.
Is a belief held be animals that adult humanoids do not have emotions unless they have been evoked by one or other mass media. This is sometimes called "hearts and minds".
I wonder
If there is a Magpie vicar lamenting that his time is being wasted attending Magpie funerals only to see the corpse sent off to the sublime tunes of Tina Turner and bad poetry..
@Elephants By SkippyBing
"Don't predators pick on the sick and lame? If I was wondering around the Serengeti I'd like to do it with someone in worse condition than me too."
It's probably not what it's all about. The problem is, if you leave the "sick and lame" behind, it gives those pesky predators a good reason to follow you around wherever you go. A bit like it's a bad idea to let food laying around if you want to avoid ants. Or roaches. Or raccoons. Or bears (check those which apply to you geographical location).
It probably played a role in the emergence of funeral rites in humans. They are very diverse (burriyng vs anging in trees vs throwing in the river on a raft etc). The most basic common denominator is that it prevents predators from being used to getting easy food if they just hang around. Because you know that sooner or later they will want more.
(also, people might have noticed at some point that hugging rotting corpses might have adverse effect on health. But that explanation doesn't work for nomadic groups).
What makes you think our emotions are in a different class from those birds, or any other animals have? If you cut them do they not bleed? I smell some unwarranted species level special pleading. We are animals too you know.
BTW when you observe the same events it is parsimonious in the absence of evidence to the contrary to treat them as having the same source. Thus if elephants look very much like they are grieving (and remember an elephant has passed the mirror test of self awareness) then they are grieving unless and until we have evidence that they are doing something else.
It is no accident that all the species shown so far to pass the mirror test or variants are social animals, including us. BTW last night's Horizon reminded that our infants only pass it sometime between 18 and 22 months of age.
Doc Magpie
My dog eats grass when it's sick. Maybe they were bringing it medicine.
Just headline grabbing, err...
"It's just headline-grabbing shorthand to refer to them as 'funerals'."
Erm, you're not suggesting that Lester would in any way use such a tactic to get people to read his stories I wouid assume? ;-)
As for the magpies - considering I believe they have quite a long life in bird terms and seem to form almost friendships (in a sense), then this all makes perfect sense. Could be they don't quite understand "dead", but maybe they do understand sickness so perhaps they're kindof looking after the bird by covering it.
Magpies are solitary. Except for mating adults attack other magpies.
When there is a group of magpies that is a family.
So was the deceased a family member or a stranger ?
@Sarah Bee
I couldn't have explained the notion of rituals better myself, and I have a degree in macrobiology. I think "death ritual" may be the best way to describe what Dr. Bekoff wrote about.
I think what most scientists are opposed to is *gratuitous* anthropomorphism. I didn't take any courses with Dr. Bekoff, but his colleague at CU, Dr. David Chiszar, really made a point of discussing this topic. And rightly so. Gratuitous anthropomorphism is the practice of taking an animal behavior and attributing human motivations to it at a prima fascie level. This is a problem because it keeps from digging deeper and actually doing any meaningful investigation. HOWEVER, and any scientist will likely agree, animals and humans share most of the same prime motivators, so you can rule-out a common motivator for a similar behavior.
Gratuitous anthropomorphism would say that the magpies held a "funeral" to bid their fallen comrade farewell and brought grass for it to thrive in a corvid afterlife.
Scientific inquiry would try to distinguish coincidental behaviors from those that the animals behaved in as a direct result of encountering a non-responsive comrade. This is much different from taking a hardline that animals can't experience emotional responses or do anything for reasons that would remotely resemble human motivations.
Based on the abstract that the Reg presents, it sounds like bringing grass to the corpse was a deliberate act and not a coincidence. I'm guessing Dr. Bekoff didn't observe them attempting to eat their dead comrade, and like most animals, birds explore their world with their face-- their beaks are their primary means of manipulating objects in their environment. Their "death ritual" is quite likely nothing more than them attempting to elicit a response from a fallen comrade before abandoning it as dead. That's a little something that humans would consider "closure", and we do similar things for similar reasons. It keeps us from abandoning our friends and offspring just because they're taking a nap or took a hard knock on the noggin and are out-cold for a few moments, and puts us in a place we can just move on with things and stop being concerned with the welfare of those no longer with us when they are really deceased.
I'm curious as to the grass bit. I highly doubt it would be an offering to the dead. The most likely motivators would seem to be either providing something to tempt the fallen into responsiveness, or maybe the odor of plucked grass has an effect similar to smelling salts on corvids? Maybe it's just a bizarre habit that one magpie learned by observing an eccentric magpie long ago. Further research would be required and hopefully will be done because that's a pretty interesting behavior to get to the bottom of.
Not a magpie at all
That's a Norwegian blue, that is. Lovely plumage
Daft study if you ask me.
Most corvoids tend to work themselves in to a frenzy if they find a dead mate of theirs. Quite often they'll make enough racket that half the neighbourhood will come and join in. I've personally seen 50+(rough guess) rooks, crows, magpies and a couple of jays going mental over a crow decoy left on its side in a field.
@Mannie3 - anthropomorphism: there's a lot of it about
"... the birds were waiting for the dead bird to respond/move/react. They poked it, nothing happened. They brought something which might stimulate the bird into reacting. Could have been food, something shiny, or some nesting material. Still nothing happened. The birds stood there, waiting for something to happen and it didn't. One by one they flew off because we were observing the limited concentration span of individual birds. The first bird to go was the one that decided/realised nothing of interest was going to happen so it might as well go off and do other activities."
You appear to have described the process of scientific research rather well. Or perhaps I should call it - the science ritual.
I'm not suggesting our emotions are in a different class - simply that we should be very wary before assuming that behaviours are close analogues of displays of human emotions and vice versa. Humans themselves aren't exactly consistent when it comes to grieving (or a lot of other emotions), so it's surely cultural-level special pleading to assume that because it looks like your version of grief it therefore must be grief.
That's why I like the gay necro duck article besides my delight in the macabre. No theories as to why the duck did what it did, it simply notes the observed behaviour, and why it is notable.
You don't have to draw conclusions - it's OK to await further evidence.
Sounds right to me.
I lived in a house in the Adeladie hills, on a huge block of land surrouded by trees, which were populated by a lot of Magpies. Occasionally I would find a large group of 20 or more standing close together in the driveway, for no apparent reason. They seemed to take turns in "Talking".
It looked for all the world as though they were having a meeting of some sort!
Doesn't really stand up, does it?
If it were robust, it'd be published in an actual biological journal, say Animal Behaviour. If it's in a mag with a name like a Laurie Anderson "poem", I'm not gonna bother, let alone pay for access (did you, Reg?).
It in an Ex Magpie; it has ceased to be
'E's not pinin'! 'E's passed on! This parrot is no more! He has ceased to be! 'E's expired and gone to meet 'is maker! 'E's a stiff! Bereft of life, 'e rests in peace! If you hadn't nailed 'im to the perch 'e'd be pushing up the daisies! 'Is metabolic processes are now 'istory! 'E's off the twig! 'E's kicked the bucket, 'e's shuffled off 'is mortal coil, run down the curtain and joined the bleedin' choir invisibile!! THIS IS AN EX-MAGPIE!!
The other magpies were checking to see whether it was really dead or simply pining for the fjords
Anthropomorphism is the base assuption
If someone wants me to assume that animals do not think & feel like humans, albeit in differing levels of complexity, they need to show me the proof that humans are magically distinct from the other animals in some fundamental way. Until then I will continue to agree with Darwin that dogs have a sense of humour and that elephants and whales can be sentimentally attached to non-mates.
What these magpies were up to is not clear, but it sounds like they wanted their dead chum to not be dead. More than that is hard to say.
Ritual? Or curiosity?
I think I'd need more than one account before I could see the Ceremonial Laying On Of grasses as a crow funereal* ritual.
However, whether it's a one-off incident or a ritual which might be performed for any Fallen Feathered Friend, it's certainly interesting.
As I see it, it could be explained by curiosity as easily as emotion (Pecking at it to see if it reacts; nope. Balance things on it to see if it shifts and knocks them off; nuh-uh. Well, guess it's really dead then. Wonder what else is going on?)
Or a combination of the two ("Bob? you ok mate?" *poke* "Bob! Wakey wakey!" *poke* Oh God, check 'is breathing... *grasses dumped, remain in place* "No, he can't be dead!" says other crow, repeats the grass test. Eventually they come to terms with the loss, observe a moment's silence and fly off to grieve by themselves).
Don't think you should claim "funerals" (note the plural) without evidence that it's a frequent occurrence (one datum is not enough to base any theory on!) It could be evidence of Corvid emotion, or Corvid curiosity, or even that Corvids have the concept of checking-for-life-signs-before-pronouncing-them-legally-dead - but in whatever the theory, needs quite a few more examples before making general statements about how these fascinating creatures actually see the world.
*Just in case: Not a typo.
"Making a tool doesn't give you a belief system - with all the cosmological and eschatological explanations that come with a belief system. All it means is that you can make a tool."
The act of *making* a tool shows that you have analysed a problem and identified some implement that can be made to help solve it, i.e. you can "looked forward" rather than simply react.
I never said that crows have a planed system of beliefs to the level of complexity (and stupidity) that humans have, what I said was it is no surprise that they could have something, e.g. a death ritual, or some other capability to contemplate the fate of the other bird.
What gives us this, and why so you think it is unique my cowardly friend?
Not just carrion meat.
Corvids do eat carrion, but are quite capable of taking live prey if the opportunity arises. They're not quite as efficient in the killing and tearing up stakes as specialist birds of prey, but I've seen them grab, kill and peck apart goslings and songbirds. If they did want to make a meal of a fallen magpie, they would not need to wait for the corpse to "mature" before tucking in.

LEE COUNTY, Fla.- A vehicle rollover crash on southbound I-75 near Colonial Blvd., caused a complete roadblock this morning. The roadway has since reopened, but traffic was tied up for hours as crews cleared the scene.
Florida Highway Patrol says 25-year-old Keving Keeling sustained minor injuries after his Ford F350 rolled several times. Investigators say the trailer he was hauling swerved for unknown reasons, and fishtailed, striking the metal cable wires.
FHP says alcohol is not considered a factor in this crash.

"The Book of Kells is a masterpiece of medieval art 'a brilliantly decorated version of the four Gospels with full-page depictions of Christ, the Virgin and the Evangelists as well as a wealth of smaller decorative painting. The strange imagination displayed in the pages, the impeccable technique and the very fine state of preservation make The Book of Kells an object of endless fascination. This edition reproduces the most important of the fully decorated pages plus a series of enlargements showing the almost unbelievable minuteness of the detail; spiral and interlaced patterns, human and animal ornament' -- a combination of high seriousness and humor. The text is by Bernard Meehan, the Keeper of Manuscripts at Trinity College, Dublin.
Greetings, brave adventurers! So you are looking for uncharted territory to claim and conquer, eh? You've already climbed the highest peaks and had lunch in the craters of the moon. So, where do you go next to do your exploring? Look no further than this hidden gem. This is a land of mystery and danger, a land of wonder and fright, a land with Tyrannosaurs, tentacled creatures, and scariest of all....toll booths. Behold, Delaware!
Jasper Dash and the Flame-Pits of Delaware is part of M.T. Anderson's Pals in Peril series, a highly absurdist take on children's detective and adventure series of decades past, the most obvious being Nancy Drew, Goosebumps, and Tom Swift. The title character of this particular book is the star of his own fictional series that has fallen into obscurity. Just looking at Jasper Dash, you can see that he's from another time. Aviator goggles perched atop a perfectly parted swath of blonde hair. And that's when he opens his mouth and 19th-century slang falls out: "Hello, chums...What-ho and tippy tippy dingle and all."

Staff File Photo by John Rawlston The Tennessee River curves around Moccasin Bend in between Lookout Mountain and downtown Chattanooga.
More than 200 people crowded the Chattanooga Convention Center tonight to hear details about a proposed gateway plan for two of Chattanooga's next premier parks.
"This is the next big thing," Mayor Ron Littlefield told the crowd.
The public meeting took a look at how to make Manufacturer's and Hamm roads into a corridor for Stringer's Ridge and the Moccasin Bend National Archaeological District.
Attendees heard ideas for green infrastructure, other proposed parks and how to make the area a more attractive gateway for the two parks.

I ordered my daughters flower girl dress from here along with all of her accessories. tights, necklace, bracelet, shoes and head piece. It was amazingly priced and the quality was beautiful. I did have one freak out moment when the confirmation email said that the dress was on back order. I put my wedding together in two weeks so I really didn't have the time to try and get another dress. I dealt with their customer service and they were great. They ended up finding the dress in their warehouse and got it to me on time despite the delay. I was very impressed and my daughter looked absolutely stunning for my wedding

I was nervous to order a dress online for my daughter, because I was concerned about the fit. I would generally purchase her a size 10 in clothing, so I almost ordered a 10. Boy was I wrong! I used the measurement chart for the dress, and she measured a size 7! Needless to say, the 7 fit like a glove! Great purchase..very original dress. My daughter will stand out on her Communion day!

FSU-Miami, GT-Clemson Headline ACC Week 12
A look at things to watch in the Atlantic Coast Conference during Week 12 of the season:
Defensive Statistics Can Be Misleading In ACC
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) — Impressive defensive numbers may no longer be a significant indicator of success. At least not in the ACC.
5 Things To Watch In ACC Football: Duke-Miami, Syracuse-ND & More
A look at things to watch in the Atlantic Coast Conference during Week 5 of the season:
A Rough Week For Miami Football, And Now Duke Looms
CORAL GABLES, Fla. (AP) — It's already been a rough week for Miami.
Coaches skipped sleep after Miami's charter flight landed early Sunday morning following the 41-31 loss to Nebraska, choosing instead to head into their offices and get to work for several hours. Later Sunday, the university announced that coach Al Golden is dealing with a family medical emergency that would necessitate him rearranging his weekly schedule.
Louisville Defeats Miami 31-13 In ACC Debut
LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) — Miami's offense converted just one of 13 third-down opportunities and didn't fully capitalize on two takeaways near Louisville's end zone. Add in a special teams lapse, and the result was a 31-13 loss on Monday night.
Top 10: Things To Watch During ACC Football 2014
GREENSBORO, N.C. (AP) — The Atlantic Coast Conference owns a few prized possessions that once were property of the Southeastern Conference.
Among them: A national championship trophy, a Heisman Trophy, and a measure of respect.

Just a block east of Old Schoolhouse Square, the Delray Green Market is a sweet place to wile away a Saturday morning. From 8 a.m. to 1 p.m., about 35 vendors set up in Worthington Park, where magnificent banyans provide shade and park benches welcome the shop-weary buttocks. Produce is available from four vendors. Hippocrates organic farms sells vegetables and fruits as well as juices and wraps. Triple C, a citrus grower, sells citrus and fresh-squeezed juices. Nancy and Charlie Roe, who operate a community-supported farm in Boynton Beach where a monthly subscription brings a weekly bag of seasonal produce, bring a selection of fresh vegetables. There's also barbecue, fresh fish, crafts, and usually musical entertainment. The only bummer: Like pretty much all such gatherings in these subtropical climes, the Green Market is open only from mid-October through the end of April.
