The present patent application relates to data coding, such as, for example, Golomb coding.
As is well-known, efficient data coding for storage or transmission continues to be an area in which new approaches are sought. For example, if data may be coded more efficiently, such as by compression, the amount of memory to store data to be coded may be reduced. Likewise, in communications systems, if data may be coded efficiently, for a communications channel of a given bandwidth, for example, potentially more information may be transmitted in a given unit of time. These goals and many others may be the object of methods for efficient coding of data.
Subject matter is particularly pointed out and distinctly claimed in the concluding portion of the specification. Claimed subject matter, however, both as to organization and method of operation, together with objects, features, and advantages thereof, may best be understood by reference of the following detailed description if read with the accompanying drawings in which:
In the following detailed description, numerous specific details are set forth to provide a thorough understanding of claimed subject matter. However, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that claimed subject matter may be practiced without these specific details. In other instances, well-known methods, procedures, components and/or circuits have not been described in detail so as not to obscure claimed subject matter.
Some portions of the detailed description which follow are presented in terms of algorithms and/or symbolic representations of operations on data bits and/or binary digital signals stored within a computing system, such as within a computer and/or computing system memory. These algorithmic descriptions and/or representations are the techniques used by those of ordinary skill in the data processing arts to convey the substance of their work to others skilled in the art. An algorithm is here, and generally, considered to be a self-consistent sequence of operations and/or similar processing leading to a desired result. The operations and/or processing may involve physical manipulations of physical quantities. Typically, although not necessarily, these quantities may take the form of electrical and/or magnetic signals capable of being stored, transferred, combined, compared and/or otherwise manipulated. It has proven convenient, at times, principally for reasons of common usage, to refer to these signals as bits, data, values, elements, symbols, characters, terms, numbers, numerals and/or the like. It should be understood, however, that all of these and similar terms are to be associated with appropriate physical quantities and are merely convenient labels. Unless specifically stated otherwise, as apparent from the following discussion, it is appreciated that throughout this specification discussions utilizing terms such as �processing�, �computing�, �calculating�, �determining� and/or the like refer to the actions and/or processes of a computing platform, such as a computer or a similar electronic computing device, that manipulates and/or transforms data represented as physical electronic and/or magnetic quantities and/or other physical quantities within the computing platform's processors, memories, registers, and/or other information storage, transmission, and/or display devices.
As previously alluded to, one potential, although not exclusive, application of an embodiment of claimed subject matter may be in the field of low bit rate audio and/or video coding. It is typically desirable in this particular field, for example, to compress data relatively efficiently. In this and analogous fields, it may also be desirable, as suggested previously, to transmit information across a communications channel, such as a channel that may be subject to restrictions on the number of bits that may be transmitted, or on the bit transmission rate. Therefore, relatively efficient coding may result in more information being transmitted per unit time, for example. Another application, also previously suggested, may be in the compression of data on an electronic device, such as for storage in files, for example. This may, for example, reduce the amount of memory for storage of the particular data, for example, or, as another example, facilitate transmission of the data by reducing the size of an attachment to an email. Of course, claimed subject matter is not limited to these simple examples. These are provided simply for purposes of illustration.
Golomb coding is well-known and described in Golomb, S W: �Run-length encodings�, IEEE Trans. Inf. Theory, 1966, 7, (12), pp. 399-401. Golomb Codes are simply one example of data coding. Therefore, while many of the examples described later are presented in terms of Golomb coding, it should be clear that it is intended that claimed subject matter not be limited in scope simply to Golomb codes (GCs). Other approaches to coding data may be employed and provide satisfactory results. Nonetheless, continuing with Golomb coding as one example, GCs are often used for run length coding, but, in principle, they are general purpose codes that may be used to encode any symbol, or sequence of symbols, as an integer numeral or a sequence of integer numerals. In one possible embodiment, a unique integer numeral may be assigned to a symbol and the symbol may then be coded by Golomb coding the corresponding numeral, for example. GCs have an advantage that the range of numerals need not be known or constrained in advance.
In one particular example, a Golomb Code of a numeral I, modulo K (where K is the �base� in this example) may be defined by (S, E, R) as follows:
S=the Sign of the numeral I, if appropriate (may be omitted if the numerals are either all positive or all negative).
M=the Magnitude of I
E=the exponent fix(logK(M)), where fix( ) denotes here a truncation operation, that is, rounding to the next lowest integer numeral.
R=M−KE, is referred to here as a �residual.�
The Magnitude of I, therefore, may be obtained by M=KE+R.
It is noted however, that logK(0) may provide a mathematical quirk in that K raised to any power should not provide zero. One approach that may be employed to address this includes adding 1 to all non-negative integer numerals so that logK(0) should not occur, although, of course, claimed subject matter is not limited in scope in this respect.
At times, out of convenience, for example, K=2, so that a Golomb Code, for example, may provide a form of binary floating point representation of variable length, with exponent E and residual R of variable length E bits. This case is illustrated in
As shall be described in more detail below, in one embodiment, a method of coding a data symbol may be employed, comprising Golomb-coding, although, as explained previously, claimed subject matter is not limited in scope to Golomb coding. In such an embodiment, a symbol may be Golomb-coded by an exponent value E and a residual value R, the exponent value being coded substantially according to a variable length code, again, as described in more detail below.
In this particular embodiment, for example, a Variable Length Code (VLC) may be employed to make substitutions for symbols in which short codes may be used for more frequently occurring symbols and longer codes for less frequently occurring symbols. In this way, the average length of a code may be reduced. One well-known example of a VLC comprises Huffman coding, although many other examples exist. For example, Fano/Shannon coding comprises a VLC, as does the Morse code, which substitutes short codes for frequently occurring letters like E (one dot) and longer ones for others like X (dash dot dot dash). Of course, claimed subject matter is not limited in scope to these examples. These are provided merely for purposes of illustration.
Likewise, another embodiment may comprise a method of coding a symbol by a corresponding positive non-zero numeral V. The largest integral value of an exponent E for which bE does not exceed V, where b is an integer numeral modulo value, and E=fix(logb(V)), may be determined. Likewise, a residual R=V−bE may be calculated. A symbol code may therefore be generated that includes the value of an exponent, coded as a variable length code, and a residual value. Of course, claimed subject matter is not limited in scope to this particular embodiment. This is simply one example of an embodiment included within the scope of claimed subject matter.
Various modifications are possible and all are intended to be included within the scope of claimed subject matter. For example, in one alternate embodiment, the symbols may optionally be contained within a symbol alphabet which ranks symbols by expected probability of occurrence, the value of V representing the symbol rank.
Likewise, in one embodiment, a Variable Length Coder (VLC), such as, for example, a Huffman Coder, may encode the exponent of a code, such as a Golomb Code, for example, for efficiently coding and compressing a stream of symbols. However, the VLC may be adaptive or static, depending, for example, on the particular embodiment.
Although claimed subject matter is not limited in scope in this respect, it is noted that embodiments of a coding procedure as described herein may at times out perform Huffman Coding in real applications. Likewise, while claimed subject matter is not limited in scope in this respect, embodiments may be conveniently applied to run length coding and/or for use with awkward probability distributions, although these are merely examples, and claimed subject matter is not limited in scope in this respect.
Example embodiments, in addition to an embodiment of a method of coding of data, may include a computer program incorporating such a method; and/or a coder, such as one implemented in hardware, firmware, software, or combinations therefore. Embodiments may also include video and/or audio codecs embodying such a method; video and/or audio compression systems whereby data may be encoded according to such a method, and in which such data may then be transmitted across a communications channel for reconstruction by a decoder at the far end. Alternatively, the coded data may be stored rather than transmitted. These and many other embodiments are included within the scope of claimed subject matter.
where bn is the value of bit n, 0 or 1, and the summation runs from n=0 to N.
which has E bits for E>=1 and M>=2.
Given the representation of
A value of E may, in some situations, be challenging to transmit, in that the number of bits to transmit E may typically be variable, as is the number of bits to send a residual. A common way of implementing a Golomb coder is to transmit not the value of E but, instead, the change in E with respect to the last value that was sent. For example, the sending of a first symbol may indicate that the value of E has increased by 1, whereas the sending of a second symbol may indicate that the value has decreased by 1. The sending of a third symbol may indicate that the value of E remains the same. The differences between the successive values of E may, in practice, be transmitted as successive bits, although claimed subject matter is not limited in scope in this respect. Further details may be found, for example, in Rice, R F; �Some practical universal noiseless coding techniques�, Tech. Rep. JPL-79-22, Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, Calif., March 1979. Huffman Coding is also a well-known method of coding data, details of which may be found in Huffman, D.: �A method for the construction of minimum redundancy codes�, Proc. Inst. Radio Eng., 1952, 9, (40), pp. 1098-1101.
In the binary case, if the maximum value of E that may occur is Max_E, the uncoded representation of all values from 0 to Max_E employs 1+fix(log2Max_F) bits. Since it is a feature of a Golomb Code that we do not necessarily know the range of numerals, it follows that we do not necessarily know the size of Max_E. Once E is known for a particular numeral, however, it is then known that the value of R employs E bits.
Golomb Coding, as an example, embodiment, works well at least in part because the probability density of R is normally relatively flat, even in cases where the probability density of M is uneven or skewed. The skewness of the distribution will be largely represented in the distribution of E, although even that is generally well-behaved. There is a smoothing effect on E because any value of E which is greater than 1 covers a range of 2E different values of M. There is a flattening effect on R because the number of values of R is less than the number of possible values of M. One aspect of this particular embodiment relates to recognizing that the efficient operation of a coder is dependent at least in part on the �cost� of coding E. Therefore, a reduction in this cost may be desirable. For example, if the range of E is constrained, say 1<E<Max_E, it may be acceptable to code E by the binary numeral E-1 of 1+fix(log2(Max_E-1)) bits. In this context, we define a method of coding E simply by its bits as a Raw Code. Furthermore, if K and Max_E are both powers of 2, this may produce good results, although claimed subject matter is, of course, not limited in scope in this respect.
A comparative example may serve to show that employing a Raw Code, such as a Raw Golomb Code, may provide a reasonable technique for coding data. Suppose we wish to transmit a sequence of numerals, and that all numerals from 1 to 8 are equally likely with no correlation between successive numerals. Effectively, this is like the outcome of throwing a dice of 8 sides. One way of coding and transmitting such data is to use a Variable Length Coder (VLC), such as a Huffman coder.
As is well-known, the theoretical cost of coding, or the entropy, of this sequence of numerals is log28=3 bits and simply sending the value as three bits is an optimum code. In theory, a well-constructed VLC, such as a Huffman coder, would recognize this and also produce the optimum code. However in practice, this may not occur, such as if the VLC is adaptive and is forming its codes from real sequences of numerals which are not likely to have a flat observed histogram of occurrence. Thus, it may be possible, for example, that a VLC will assign the symbols as having different probabilities and so assign a 1-bit code to the one the coder determines is most common, a 2-bit code to the next, and so on. In this example, we can suppose that the numerals from 1 to 7 have 1 to 7 bits, and we may code the value 8 by 7 bits as well. In this case, the VLC will on average use ⅛(1+2+3+4+5+6+7+7) bits, here 35/8=4.375 bits, nearly 46% greater than the optimum. It is not generally appreciated that a Huffman coder may at times perform so badly.
A Raw Golomb Code, on the other hand, will do better in transmitting the same sequence of numerals. The range of E in this case is 0-3, which we may communicate with 2 bits.
We can list the number of bits employed for the 8 possible numerals:
Some inefficiency in a Raw Golomb code may be attributed to coding of E in a manner which employs 2 bits to code a value even if different values of E do not occur with the same frequency. Instead, for this particular embodiment, we propose use of a VLC to code values of E. A Variable Length Coder (VLC) typically uses an alphabet of symbols in which the probabilities of occurrence of the symbols are ranked in numerical order. One well-known coder of this type is the Huffman Coder, mentioned above. Other VLCs, apart from Huffman, may likewise be used.
Continuing with the previous example, the most common value of E is 2, so we use the shortest code, binary 1. Similarly, the binary code for E=1 is 01, and the binary codes for E=0 and E=3 are either 001 or 000, either way around. It is also possible to switch the roles of the binary values 0 and 1 in the coding of E. These may be recognized as Huffman codes for E with the choice of 000 and 001 to code the values 1 and 8 being arbitrary.
The efficiency is now:
We define a �Hybrid Golomb Coder� (HGC) to be a Golomb code in which a Huffman VLC is used to code for a value of E. The example above shows that a HGC is optimal in this case. In forming this code, we have exploited the fact that no R value is employed for either 0 or 8. If E is 0, there is, of course, no residual, and, if E is 3, the numeral being transmitted is 8, once again with no residual. We have also assumed that the Huffman codes for E=0 and E=3 have correctly been seen to be equal.
To make a comparison with a practical Huffman Coder, instead, which may be adaptive, we might recognize that one or the other of the E values for 0 or 8 might use a 4-bit code. We also might not know in advance that the maximum is 8, another reason for using a 4-bit code for one symbol. In both of these cases, on average, 25/8 bits would be used, which is only 4% more than the optimum.
We may also make a comparison with a case in which a Huffman coder is known to be optimal, such as if the probabilities of our 8 symbols are �. �, . . . 1/128, 1/128. The last two probabilities are the same in order that the probabilities sum to 1.0. The theoretical entropy of a stream of symbols from such a source is 1.9844 bits per symbol, and a Huffman Coder, on average, achieves this precisely.
For this embodiment of a Hybrid Golomb Coder (HGC), we tabulate, and apply the probabilities to get the average performance. Note that we assume the ranks of the E values are properly identified.
Over a range of probabilities, experimentation shows that a Hybrid Golomb Coder using a Huffman VLC to code the values of E consistently outperforms a Huffman Coder, except in situations relatively close to ideal operating conditions for a Huffman Coder.
As was explained above, one common way of implementing a traditional Golomb Coder is not to transmit values of E themselves, but, instead, to transmit changes to values of E. Although this might be preferred under some very narrow conditions, where successive values are correlated, both theory and experimental results show that a Hybrid Golomb Coder generally outperforms such a traditional Golomb Coder. For example, in Run Length Coding, successive E values are often anti-correlated, e.g., a large run may be followed by a short one, and so a traditional Golomb Coder may be chasing the E value �back and forth,� while a HGC may select a better code for E most of the time.
It will, of course, be understood that in encoding a value of E it is not essential that a Huffman process be used. Any variable length code could be used instead, such as a fixed (predefined) code or, alternatively, an adaptive code in which the values are determined according to measured probabilities of the numerals or symbols found within the data to be transmitted. Of course, these are merely examples and claimed subject matter is not limited in scope to these examples.
Embodiments in accordance with claimed subject matter may be applied to coding of data of all types, including non-numeric data, such as symbolic data, for example, converted into numerical form by any convenient mapping prior to application of coding. As is noted, embodiments perform well for run length coding, although it will, of course, be understood that claimed subject matter is not limited to that application. It is intended that embodiments of claimed subject matter be applied to any one of a number of different types of data coding. Therefore, claimed subject matter is not intended to be limited in terms of the type of data to which it may be applied.
It will, of course, be understood that, although particular embodiments have just been described, the claimed subject matter is not limited in scope to a particular embodiment or implementation. For example, one embodiment may be in hardware, such as implemented to operate on a device or combination of devices, for example, whereas another embodiment may be in software. Likewise, an embodiment may be implemented in firmware, or as any combination of hardware, software, and/or firmware, for example. Likewise, although claimed subject matter is not limited in scope in this respect, one embodiment may comprise one or more articles, such as a storage medium or storage media. This storage media, such as, one or more CD-ROMs and/or disks, for example, may have stored thereon instructions, that when executed by a system, such as a computer system, computing platform, or other system, for example, may result in an embodiment of a method in accordance with claimed subject matter being executed, such as one of the embodiments previously described, for example. As one potential example, a computing platform may include one or more processing units or processors, one or more input/output devices, such as a display, a keyboard and/or a mouse, and/or one or more memories, such as static random access memory, dynamic random access memory, flash memory, and/or a hard drive.
In the preceding description, various aspects of claimed subject matter have been described. For purposes of explanation, specific numbers, systems and/or configurations were set forth to provide a thorough understanding of claimed subject matter. However, it should be apparent to one skilled in the art having the benefit of this disclosure that claimed subject matter may be practiced without the specific details. In other instances, well known features were omitted and/or simplified so as not to obscure the claimed subject matter. While certain features have been illustrated and/or described herein, many modifications, substitutions, changes and/or equivalents will now occur to those skilled in the art. It is, therefore, to be understood that the appended claims are intended to cover all such modifications and/or changes as fall within the true spirit of claimed subject matter.

Europe is generally agreed to be the birthplace of western culture, including such legendary innovations as the democratic nation-state, football and tomato sauce.The word Europe comes from the Greek goddess Europa, who was kidnapped by Zeus and plunked down on the island of Crete. Europa gradually changed from referring to mainland Greece until it extended finally to include Norway and Russia.Don't be confused that Europe is called a continent without looking like an island, the way the other continents do. It's okay. The Ural mountains have steadily been there to divide Europe from Asia for the last 250 million years. Russia technically inhabits "Eurasia".Europe is presently uniting into one political and economic zone with a common currency called the Euro. The European Union originated in 1993 and is now composed of 27 member states. Its headquarters is in Brussels, Belgium.Do not confuse the EU with the Council of Europe, which has 47 member states and dates to 1949. These two bodies share the same flag, national anthem, and mission of integrating Europe. The headquarters of the Council are located in Strasbourg, France, and it is most famous for its European Court of Human Rights. In spite of these two bodies, there is still no single Constitution or set of laws applying to all the countries of Europe. Debate rages over the role of the EU in regards to national sovereignty.

Jerry Brown, Mexican president, discuss climate change, border crisis
MEXICO CITY – Gov. Jerry Brown and Mexico President Enrique Peña Nieto discussed climate change and the border immigration crisis in a private meeting Monday, but the talks were general in nature, said Senate President Pro Tem-elect Kevin de León, a Los Angeles Democrat who participated in the meeting.
De León, the Mexican president and the governor, who is widely expected to win re-election to a fourth term in November, also discussed how they are likely to have several years in office together to shape efforts on the economy and climate change, de León said.
"That being said, you know, we need to take advantage of the opportunity and bring about projects that work for both sides of the border," de León said.
De León said conversations about climate change and the illegal border crossing of thousands of young immigrants from Central America did not involve specific policy proposals.
He called it a "productive, highly pragmatic" meeting.
Brown arrived in Mexico City on Sunday night for his first official visit to the country since taking office in 2011.
"I think because of our proximity and our history and also our very sympathetic policy both to … Mexico and to the plight of people who have struggled to get here from Mexico, we are in a very good position to forge very close and productive relationships."
Brown then entered a reception for delegates and got right to ribbing the business interests – many of them conservatives – who paid for his trip.
"This is the glitziest thing I've ever seen," Brown said. "This is the way Republicans live."

Video: Why motorists need to move over for cops
Dash cam video shows how often motorists do not move over for police in pursuit
By PoliceOne Staff
Oregon police released a video that shows many motorists fail to move over for police in an emergency and that the problem is growing.
Oregon law requires drivers to immediately pull as far as possible to the right and stop when they see an emergency vehicle approaching with its lights flashing and sirens blaring. The fine for not yielding properly is $260.
Dash cam videos from real emergency situations show one vehicle after the next taking too long to move over for police cruisers, despite sirens and emergency lights, according to the Oregonian.
Dash cam from August 2013 shows trooper Gavin McIlvenna driving down I-84 after he was shot at during a traffic stop. Following the suspect, John V. Allen, McIlvenna becomes frustrated with the motorists on the road who make the pursuit nearly impossible.
According to the report, during a recent five-hour traffic mission on Portland area highways, officers from several local agencies handed out 104 citations of $260 for "failing to maintain a safe distance from emergency vehicles."

Will human touch cause a Robin to abandon its nest?
At best, this question is only tangentially related to Northwest Gardening, as i live in the Northwest, and the question is about something in my garden. :) I do apologize if it's not the correct forum.
Having said that, does anyone happen to know to what extent a Robin's nest can be disturbed without causing the nest to be abandoned?
Today, i wanted to get a photograph of what i thought was a perfect Robin's nest. Since i couldn't see into the nest from my vantage point, i moved a few branches out of the frame with one hand and stretched my camera arm above the nest to snap the picture. I was careful not to touch or disturb the nest because somewhere deep in my little girl history i was told never to touch birds nests or its occupants wouldn't return because of the human smell (i have no idea who told me that, but the message stuck).
Much to my surprise, the photograph revealed a perfect blue egg in the nest. So now i'm quite worried that my scent on the branches may cause that wee little egg to be abandoned. Is there any rational basis at all for my concern?
I wouldn't worry about any scent that you may have left behind, birds don't have a very good sense of smell. However, I would not continue to visit the nest - the robins might decide to abandon this nest and start a new one elsewhere if there is frequent disturbance to the site.
Thank you for sharing the photo - it is very cool to see. Such a wonderful sign of spring.
Yes, both of the above are right. And, robins tend to build their nests, and raise their babies successfully, right on people's doorsteps literally. On porch lights, on porch rafters, in hanging baskets ...
Now most birds are not nearly as tolerant of human activity around their nests as that, so it's not a blanket statement by any means. And, even robins will draw the line at dogs and cats around their nests.
Repeated, continual, direct disturbance will drive them off, but a one-time photo session should not. Great photo by the way!
Oh, i'm very relieved, you guys! Thank you. And you're right, reg_pnw7, about their lack of hesitation to build near a house - there's another nest that's a work in progress in a potted tree beneath my back deck. I was about to plant it, noted the nest, and slowly backed away. :) I guess i'll wait till the fall to plant it up, but meanwhile, i'll relax a little bit about moving around it.
Sorry, but we had an unfortunate experience where we just peeked into a nest in a vine under our deck, we did not touch anything, and later found the nest had been abandoned, all the eggs still unhatched as when we had looked in. So I disagree with the above.
I don't know about robins but wrens are persistent little birds, twice I've had to move their nests. Once when she built her nest in the hitch of our boat trailer, I took her nesting material and placed it in a coconut shell birdhouse and hung from a window frame and just a couple of days ago found a little wren had built her nest in another unique place, an old wood turned reject of DHs, I had to move that off a shelf as it was propped up beside my watering can. It's now lodged in a clematis vine which is a much safer place for her to raise her young, this little wren didn't blink an eye, just continued to feather her nest.
A friend has some boxes in the yard he built for bumblebees. A queen got into one before he had put it where he wanted it. When he moved it with her inside she flew out and went back to where the box had been, looking for the nest. (So he put the box back and she went back in).
I thought that was kind of interesting, that it would remember the location of the nest and give that preference over where the nest itself was.
Hey there - I'm barging in and bumping this up in hopes you can answer a related question. We have a robin's nest in our flowering quince with two near-fledglings in it. The parents have allowed us to peek in frequently. Today there's been strong wind and the nest is tipped sideways, with one baby in it and the other sitting on top of the nest. I know Mother Nature doesn't need help, but it's hard to resist trying. I wondered if I could pick up the top baby, reposition the nest, and put the baby back into it? What do you think?
I used to be the Education Director at the Nisqually Wildlife Refuge and we got this question a lot.
From everything I have been told, read, and experienced, human touch will not cause problems as long as it's not excessive.
By the way, this is the time of year we start finding those little ones falling out of nests. Don't be afraid to pick them up and put them back, Mom and Dad will continue to care for them unless there is something wrong and they were intentionally pushed out (natural selection at work). If you can't reach the nest try to put the "baby" under a bush near the nest on the ground and hope no other critters can find it. Parents will continue to feed and care for it there (usually!).
On a final note, if you find a bird that seems injured, before doing anything else try just putting it in a shoe box lined with a towel with the cover on for a couple of hours. Don't peak! Sometimes they just need some "recovery time" in the dark after an incident. After a couple hours, open the box, carefully lift it out and hold your hand open. Nine times out of ten it will fly away!
Hope that helps, just some old education from an old memory!
If anyone is still around, I have another nest & egg question. A junco built a nest in a hanging basket on my front porch. It about scared me to death when it flew out as I was watering the basket a couple weeks ago, and I got a good scolding! At that point, there were no eggs. A few days later, there was one egg, but I wasn't seeing the bird around anymore and thought perhaps she had abandoned the nest. Then a few days after that, the egg was gone. Can they move their eggs? Surely they don't lay eggs, hatch them and push the kid out in the space of a few days? Right now I'm wondering if something got the egg, despite the nest being very well hidden. Any guesses?
Something probably got it. It's also possible the hen, or another bird, put more nesting material on top of the egg and buried it.
Also, a larger bird could have pick it up and carried it off to eat.
Birds nesting in hanging baskets don't fare well if you have any cats in the area. DM had such a setup and the chicks and hen were often killed each year. Once she hung up a wren nestbox all has been well!
Songbirds are prey, the turnover is high. Most don't live more than a few years. I was stooped over weeding once in the back here (an increasingly rare occurrence!) and looked up in time to see an adult Cooper's hawk streak by and pluck a junco off a twig near the ground, probably not even 12' in front of me, and disappear with it into a rhododendron. This all happened in an instant, I'm sure the little guy (or gal) never knew what hit it. Afterward the twig vibrated for awhile and some junco feathers floated down from it to the ground.
Visited the docs office today, while I was waiting outside with my son, a woman asked if I wanted to see some baby birds in the ground bushes next to the building wall. There were 3 good size babies just ready to fledge. She told me some tree cutters came and were trimming the tree branches where they cut one branch with the nest on it. (*sses) they just violated the migratory bird act
The nest was moved more than 10 feet away to ground level in a 2 ft shrub, and I never saw the mom come to feed them nor did I hear them chirp at all. The woman said they been there for a couple of days now with no problems. I had to leave to go home, but decided to come back after work at night to check on them and feed them if possible. I wet some pieces of bread, but they were all huddled together tucked down and quiet as can be. They didn't budge to eat. I will go in the morning to check on them. I hate to see life perish from man's involvement. Any help on this would be great. I will try to feed fruit and worms at best.
Check the site below for a wildlife rehabilitator near you. You can also call the Audubon Society to see if there's a rescue near you.
If you're sure the hen is not around, then gather the babies and take them to a wildlife rescue. It's unusual for the hen to abandon chicks and she could have been roosting nearby when you went by tonight, but if something has happened to her then they will die.
Don't expect them to eat for you. They don't recognize the food you're offering and you need to know what species they are so that they're fed their natural diet. They also may not be old enough to eat on their own yet.
Hopefully by early morning the hen has moved them to a safer place, but if they're not old enough to fledge, then they're not going anywhere.
Here is a link that might be useful: Wildlife rescue
What many are not addressing is that your visits to a nest are not unobserved. Crows and othe birds will watch what you are doing or at least notice a nest they may not have otherwise noticed when you are mucking about with it. They later come in and prey upon the eggs or nestlings. Crow predation is natural and normal, but your role in causing it, not so normal. If your visit/uncovering of the nest is accidental then so be it, but visiting it purposely should be avoided. Also, tree rats and squirrels have incredibly good senses of smell and both prey on bird nests.
Birds are far less likely to abandon a nest once the young have hatched. They have invested far more time/resources into it by that point.
I have a nest on top of a ladder under my covered porch. (We had one there last year also-5 chicks hatched and flew the coop!!) When I started noticing robins in the yard this spring, I put the ladder back in the same place and it built a nest in two days!! A few days later, I peeked in and their was 2 eggs. I checked again a few days later and there were 2 more. It has been a very rainy cold spring in our area. About a week later, she started visiting her nest less and less. It's now been 2 days since I have seen her!! I'm so sad. What could have happened?? What should I do with the nest and eggs now?
I have a robin building her nest on the back side of our basketball backboard. The nest is literally opposite of the hoop with an acrylic see-through backboard. While I love to see this sign of spring, my kids will have a hard time not playing. 2 questions: 1. If I keep my kids away from playing, how long will it take for her to have her eggs and raise her babies and 2. If I do allow them to play, would it scare her away? What should I do?
Just found a fledgling on the ground below it's nest. I have a forty foot pine tree and the nest is about two feet from the top. I got a ladder,climbed up to the top and put her back in the nest. After about five minutes the mother came back to the nest with a partial worm so I say it's a myth.
I have a robin's nest under my sundeck. My dog has stopped going out in the back yard to pee or chase balls etc. She has always loved going out back, but due to her being harassed by the robin.s she has not ventured off the sundeck for the last two weeks. Any suggestions?
Kim G.
They are a light blue ... and are quiet small.
The picture isn't the best, I was trying to keep my distance.
I'm in Ireland, County Limerick.
I'm 99% sure they are Robin eggs.
I've seen her parading up and down the same route the last month and now she spends must of the time on the eggs ?:^]
Oops, I am so sorry...Okay, so you are Ireland, my bad, I thought you were posting from the Pacific Northwest because 1. this is the Pacific Northwest Forum and 2. our robin eggs don't look like that! LOL :-) The European Robin Erithacus rubecula, is a beautiful bird, about half the size of our American Robin(Turdus migratorius) Thank you for sharing the look at this nest, I had never seen one of your species.
I had an interesting situation at our house. Bought a flower planter and left it on our front porch about chest high off the porch. I saw a bird's nest appear a couple weeks later but never saw a bird so I tossed the nest into the bushes to mulch. Then I saw the flowers were trampled and looked to see why and found 3 Robin's eggs in the flower bed. I used utensils to retrieve the nest from the bushes and carefully laid the 3 eggs into the nest. All the while the mama Robin was squawking at me. I checked and saw the bird returned to the nest and was doing some tidying up. Then low and behold she reclaimed the nest. Later that same day I saw 4 eggs as she apparently had one in reserve. She is nesting nicely now and we can't wait to see her little hatchlings come to life. I did handle the nest by hand at first when I tossed it but who knows if the bird cared. It makes sense that birds don't have a sense of smell.

With the median annual tuition for medical students now exceeding $32,000 at public medical schools and $50,000 at private institutions, rising educational costs and a resulting increase in student debt have emerged as significant barriers for primary care physicians entering the profession.
To meet this challenge, the AAFP has called for expanded funding for federal loan and scholarship programs that target family medicine and primary care. We also support the deferment of interest and principal payments on medical student loans until after completion of postgraduate training. We further recommend that the interest on medical student loans be deductible on federal tax returns.
Separately, the AAFP has continued to support the National Health Service Corps (NHSC), which offers scholarships or loan repayment as incentives for physicians to enter primary care settings that serve Americans in rural and underserved areas. By addressing medical school debt burdens, the NHSC also helps ensure wider access to medical education opportunities.

Oh hey, friend, thanks for coming over the other evening! It was really fun, and that pumpkin bread you brought was great.
Oh, him? I'm sorry he bit you. You're not going to get rabies or anything, though, I took him for his shots last July. Yeah, it must have hurt, though, sorry.
No, I didn't really... adopt him, so much. He just showed up at my front door a few years back and wandered inside. It seemed like he needed a home, so after a couple days I bought some dog food and a dish and started giving him food and water. I mean, how could I deprive a poor animal of those things?
Oh yeah, he's bitten a couple of other people who've visited. It's really too bad. And I sure wish I didn't have to steam-clean my carpet so often. What can you do, though?
Call animal control? I don't know about that, it sounds sort of confrontational. I wouldn't want some mob showing up in a van to take away Buddy, you know?
A dog trainer? Huh, maybe. That seems like it would cost a lot. And doesn't it kind of infringe on his freedom to be the kind of dog he naturally is?
Tired of it? Yeah, I am, a little bit, and my housemate moved out because she said she couldn't stand finding her laundry torn apart or her books chewed up anymore. It's too bad, because I've had a hard time finding a new housemate and now I have to pay the rent for the whole house by myself. But hey, I'm not saying I would put up posters all over the neighborhood if Buddy wandered off one day. If he did, I would just shrug and get on with my life.
Oh, no, you're totally not the first person who has told me this. A lot of my friends just won't visit my house anymore. They want to meet me for coffee instead when we hang out, in cafes that don't allow any dogs in. It's okay. The way I see it, it's their loss if they don't get to be in my house.
Sue me? Why, I don't see how any jury could convict me of a crime. I'm not biting people. I'm not tearing their clothing or barking at them so loudly they can't carry on a conversation. I've never been anything but impeccably hospitable and courteous to my guests. It's not my fault if that dog keeps harassing them and if he just won't go away.
No, it doesn't bother me that much personally. I have a thick skin, you know?

Hayley Jones, Web Marketing Director for UK Energy Saving, explains further. "It can be difficult to know when to consider switching energy supplier, but there is no time like the present to start making savings. Particularly in these tense financial times, most people are looking for ways to tighten their belts and switching energy supplier is an easy way to do this. Combined with energy saving measures in the home, consumers could start making real savings. And if customers sign up for a deal which doesn't tie them into a minimum contract, they could always switch again should prices drop further than predicted."
The UK Energy Saving energy switch marketplace offers the opportunity to compare prices and switch if a cheaper deal can be found. The relevant website page can be found at www.uk-energy-

UK Energy Saving is a consumer website offering information on energy saving, renewable energy and green living, including green product reviews.

"I was pleasantly surprised with my new cards.The front is very eye catching, the paper quality/feel is professional...not cheap feeling, and I just love the fact that they're different! The only disappointment is that I would have liked the information on the back to be a little "brighter" (whiter, perhaps?) to make it easier to read due to the small text. I'm very happy that I went with this card!"
"we love this card. have re ordered multiple times. we use it on our honey from our honey bee's. you won't be sorry. great customer service when I've had a question."
"I'm getting lots of positive responses when I give my new business cards out to people. Card quality is really nice, I like the thickness. I highly recommend the white printing, it shows up nice and is easy to read. Make sure to do a bold thick font on the back! Tiny Prints says how it looks on the computer screen is how it will look printed and that's accurate. Their customer service is excellent. Delivery is very quick. Highly recommend these cards and this company!"
"This is the first time I have used Tiny Prints for business cards, and just like everything else they do, these turned out great! I didn't need them right away, so I picked the slower shipping, and to my surprise, they arrived a week earlier than expected! I love the square shape of this particular design. It adds a little something different that helps me stand out from the competition. Thank you TP!"
"I wanted a clean, good looking business card without too much to distract from the information and this card turned out great. The quality, paper, and printing are top notch and my clients like the look."

Guthrie tossed four innings of no-hit ball until Nelson Cruz recorded leadoff single off the right-hander in the fifth. He allowed two hits and no walks while striking out two in 5 2/3 scoreless innings. He has a 3.52 ERA this spring.
"I was able to throw all my pitches for strikes," Guthrie said, per the Kansas City Star. "Felt healthy and strong, which obviously is the most important thing for everybody, to feel like you're getting your strength up. We're getting toward the end of spring."
by Igor Mello | CBSSports.com
The right-hander yielded one run on two hits and no walks while striking out four over six innings of work -- his longest outing of the spring. He owns a 5.91 ERA through three Cactus League starts (10 2/3 innings).
"My fastball was good," Hernandez said, per the Tacoma News Tribune. "When my fastball is good, everything is better."

Aiken talked about the surgery and what he'll have to overcome in a piece on theplayerstribune.com.
"Yesterday, I had Tommy John surgery to fix my left arm. I'm obviously extremely disappointed. I wanted to let my pitching speak for itself, but now there are going to be new distractions. For that reason, I wanted to be the one to tell people what's happened and make this a fresh start.
"When I visited the doctor's office and got the news I had torn my UCL, I can't even begin to express how I felt. I was — and still am — overwhelmed with a lot of different feelings, but mostly it's disappointment. I won't be able to pitch this season, and this is going to keep me from doing what I love most of all — competing. It's going to be frustrating, and not just from a baseball perspective. When it's 90 degrees at home in Cardiff and the waves are perfect and I can't surf, that'll be tough, too. I know the road ahead will be full of patience and hard work, and I'm ready for that challenge."
Aiken was the first overall pick by the Astros in 2014.

Holland had been dealing with some shoulder soreness earlier in spring training. The lefty will be held out until the home opener, which is the fifth game of the season.

"There are two opening days," Banister said.
Holland has only pitched three innings this spring, giving up two hits and a walk.

Good Lawn Vacuum? Snapper?
Really want a good lawn vacuum/mulcher. Already ankle deep in leaves and only a fraction has fallen. So many leaves blowing and mowing not that practical and so time consuming. Have about 1/3 acre and my mom has about 1/2 with many mature oaks. This will go on for months. So tired of spending weeks and breaking our backs.
Can anyone recommend a vacuum/shredder? Does anyone have the Snapper SV2565B? Or something they could recommend?
Thank you!
I have a Snapper Hi-vac riding mower, with the large bagger on the back. First, i ride around and chop up the leaves, without the tube connected to the mower deck. Then, after i get a lot of them chopped smaller, i install the tube, and go around and vacuum them into the rear bagger.
Another method, is to leave the adapter chute off, tie up the flopper cover, and drive around and chop the leaves up much smaller, then do the normal pickup with the chute and bag.
That said: Go buy a Garden Rake! T.M. name. It has a cart that ya tow, an auxiliary engine/chopper that sets on the cart tongue, and a large flexible tube that runs from the deck to that engine, then from there into the enclosed cart! Two of my near neighbors have them! Those things suck up almost everything you can see, and some ya can't! If i could afford one, i'd have one!
Some machines have an extra feature--you can disconnect one tube and suck the leaves off yer shrubs, and outta yer garden--hence the name--Garden Rake. Expensive, but good investment.
Troy-Bilt makes two lawn leaf vacs. I have the non self propelled model and it, while able to handle lots of leaves, is a relatively heavy machine especially with a full bag of chopped leaves.This bag can weigh about 50# with some leaves.They make a self propelled model which should help with the job.

The Falcons, who finished with a 6-17 mark a year ago, including wins in their first two WIAA regional games, opened against Kenosha Christian Life on Nov. 27 and now will start Woodland Conference play at home at 7:30 p.m. Friday, Nov. 30 against Cudahy. They will then travel to Horicon for a non-conference tilt at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday, Dec. 4.
Expected returnees for the Falcons include seniors Kaya and Kai Senaya, Amanda Saffold, and Stacey Rademacher; juniors Kristin Lillie, Samantha Weber and Sydney Nelson; and sophomore Monique Morris. Kaya Senaya is a multi-time state track sprint champion and Nelson received praise from coach Charlie Kazel at the end of last season for her point guard play.
