A first set of discrete cosine transform (DCT) blocks is obtained. Each DCT block from the first set of DCT blocks has a first block size. When performing a split operation on the first set of DCT blocks, a filter is applied to the first set of DCT blocks. A second set of data blocks is generated based on the first set of DC blocks using a transform function. Each block in the second set of data blocks has a second block size. When performing a merge operation, the filter is applied to the second set of data blocks.

A ditch digger is attached to the square hitch located proximate the rear bumper of a vehicle and uses a stock member that has a first section and an angled second section. A plurality of openings are located along the first section whereby a connector is attached to the stock member by passing a pin through openings on the connector and on the stock member. The connector also attaches to the vehicle. A furrowing blade is attached to the second section of the stock member as is a loop member to which electrical conduit and the like may be attached.

A client-server system includes a new front end server which interposes itself between a prior (back end) server and its clients using an interposed dynamically-loaded library linked to the back end. The interposed library and front end can provide enhanced services without requiring reconfiguration of either the back end server or its clients. The front end can accept network connections on the same port as the back end server is programmed to. The interposed library intercepts standard network system calls by the back end and emulates their behavior by communicating with the front end. The front end can send file descriptors of either direct connections with clients, or of pipes for relaying requests and response from and to clients through the front end, to the interposed library for return to calls by the back end to accept connections. The capabilities which the front end can provide include caching, protocol conversion, session affinity, filtering, traffic conversion, and spreading load between multiple back end processes.
