Could Ministry of Justice and Grayling be prosecuted for manslaughter over prison suicides?" The Prisons and Probation Ombudsman has repeatedly expressed concerns about the number of suicides of persons in detention - see his reports. This blog - 26th February 2015 "A most serious report" - looked at a report by the Equality and Human Rights Commission - Preventing deaths in detention of adults with mental health conditions.
Would it be possible to bring such prosecutions under the Corporate Manslaughter and Corporate Homicide Act 2007 ?
The offence of Corporate Manslaughter is defined in section 1
and it applies to those "organisations" set out in section 1(2). They are - (a) a corporation; (b) a department or other body listed in Schedule 1;
(c) a police force; (d) a partnership, or a trade union or employers'
association, that is an employer. Thus, a government department (or its
Minister) are distanced from possible prosecution unless they are
listed in Schedule 1. A number of government departments are listed in
Schedule 1 but the list does NOT include the Ministry of Justice.
Section 2 deals with the meaning of "relevant duty of care" and section 3 states that public authorities do not have a "relevant duty of care" in respect of a decision as to matters of
public policy (including in particular the allocation of public
resources or the weighing of competing public interests. See further the Explanatory Notes on section 3.
For those reasons, the Ministry of Justice and its Minister appear to be safe from prosecution under this Act.
With regard to those organisations who are responsible for the day-to-day management of prisons and prisoners (or others detained), there will be a duty of care under the Act though the difficulties should not be underestimated. The Crown Prosecution Service offers a more detailed summary of the Act.
Many of the problems in the Act were highlighted by LIBERTY when the Bill was passing through Parliament. LIBERTY pointed out that whilst the Act removed "Crown Immunity" (see section 11) it was effectively re-introduced by the exemptions.
Therefore it must be concluded that the place to hold the Ministry of Justice and its Minister to account is Parliament and that, of course, is precisely one of the constitutional functions of Parliament. This is not to say that Parliament has ignored deaths in custody. For example, INQUEST gave this evidence to the Justice Committee in 2013. However, it would be good to see the full glare of Parliamentary scrutiny brought to bear on this issue. Little hope of that however given that the present Parliament will be dissolved on 30th March.

I know a thing or two about weddings. I've had the pleasure of marrying probably a hundred couples now. And I've learned this about weddings. They're always late. They never start on time. Once a wedding started only 5 minutes after it was supposed to. That's been the closest to start time so far.
I love that Jesus uses a wedding as the context for this parable. I'm sure he went to his share of weddings. We probably all have. I've certainly been to my share of mine.
It's so interesting that Jesus uses experiences from everyday to teach. He rarely talks about Scripture. Instead he talks about farming and families and relationships and even weddings. Stuff people know about.
I think he's trying to tell us that the divine isn't strange or foreign to us. God is all around us. Constantly. Even in the things we think God has nothing to do with.
He was dependent upon them to light the way for him. He didn't have a lamp of his own. If the bridesmaids didn't keep their lamps lit, everyone was in serious trouble. The wedding would be even later, if at all.
And the astonishing thing is that Jesus says, "This is what the kingdom of heaven, or God's reign, is like."
Huh? What? What on earth do bridesmaids running out of oil for their lamp stands and the spiritual life have in common?
And what about those supposedly wise bridesmaids—the ones who have plenty of oil, the ones who won't share it with those who are running low—who are they. Because I want to steer clear of them. Jesus calls them wise, but they sound a little mean to me.
Let's unpack this parable a little bit to see what's really going on here. What Jesus is trying to teach us. Who's who in this parable?
These 10 bridesmaids are Jesus followers. He's the bridegroom who arrives a little later than everyone expected.
When the gospel of Matthew was written, some Christians were giving up. They were losing hope.
These are the 5 who run out of oil. They don't have enough oil to keep their lamps lit. 5 however, have enough oil. They are able to accompany Jesus when he finally arrives.
Oil is spiritual energy. It's spiritual power. It's what allows us to create and shine light in times of darkness.
Remember what Jesus said, "…let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father in heaven." Jesus is telling his followers not to lose hope or give up even though it appears that he's running late. Or maybe not showing up at all.
Even though it looks like he might be a run away bridegroom, he says, keep your lamp stands lit. Make sure you continue cultivating your spiritual power, and doing good works, even though I appear to be running late.
Don't give up, he tells us. No matter what. Even though it looks like I'm running late. Don't give up. Let your light shine. I'll be there.
This parable is about fueling up. Making sure we're ready for a long journey. Not running out of spiritual energy.
Now if you're like me, you're thinking, "What about those 5 bridesmaids who have enough oil, yet refuse to share with the 5 who run out of oil?" How mean are they? They send the other 5 away and say, "You have to get your own oil. You can't have any of ours." Yikes! Are they even people of faith? Why don't they share?
Let me tell you a secret. You can't share spiritual energy. You can't give someone your spirituality. You can share lots of things. You can share a cup of coffee. Or a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. Or even a car. But you can't share your spiritual energy with anyone else. You can't give someone else your joy or compassion or freedom to anyone else. Any more than you can give them your eyesight or worldview or sense of humor.
They are all uniquely us. Every person has to cultivate their own spiritual life. You can't get it from someone else. When times get tough, when we're going through a time of loss and grief, no one can give you the peace that passes understanding to get you through it.
When you're dealing with chronic or a life-threatening illness, no one can give you the confidence that nothing, not even this, can separate you from the love of God.
We'll all face circumstances that will make us want to give up. To let our lights go out. If we don't have a deep well of spiritual oil to draw from, our lamp stand might go out.
We have to resist that temptation. We have to continue developing our spirituality every single day. Because we don't know when we're going to enter a time of trial and need to draw from it.

The Knox Board of Works members discussed a change order for the newly purchased fire truck for the Knox-Center Township Fire Department.
Fire Chief Kenny Pfost said there were some minor modifications made after a pre-construction meeting with manufacturer Toyne Inc. where every bid spec was reviewed.
They removed a light tower due to cost and a support pad in the cab for that tower. Unnecessary lighting was also removed, but certain warning lights that weren't included in the original drawings of the truck were added.
No additional cost will be incurred as a result of the changes made. With that, the board members approved the change order as presented.
The Knox City Council previously approved an ordinance to issue a General Obligation Bond to pay for the fire truck. The bond issuance is for a total of $650,000 to cover the cost of the fire truck, any add-ons or potential change orders, and Umbaugh and Associates' $50,000 bond counsel charge.

I received this product for free from Moms meet (momsmeet.com) to use and post my honest opinions.
Growing up my grandmother used canola oil for frying, sautéing and all of our baking needs. She used canola oil for everything that required an oil but I have learned that those oils are toxic and I am going to explain just why palm oil is beneficial to your health.
They say if you know better than you do better I met my husband and he was more health conscious than I was and he taught me how to take better care of myself. I started being more health conscious and started using oils like coconut and olive oil but just when you think you have a great oil you realize there are so many different factors to look for. You have to make sure the oils are organic, non-gmo and heat tolerant.
At last I found an oil that is everything wrapped into one and its palm oil. Palm oil is organic, non-gmo and has a smoke point of 450 degrees.
After doing some research I found that Malaysian Palm oil
- Palm Oil is nutrient dense. It's a rich source of carotenoids pro-Vitamin A, it has a balanced fatty acid composition and high content of Vitamin E tocopherols
- Free of Trans fat. Palm fat is free of trans fatty acids
- Withstand high temperature. If you love to fry then this is the best oil to use.
- Great for cosmetic use.I make my own Shea Butter mix and now I will use Palm Oil which makes your skin soft and supple.
- Malaysia is a responsible palm oil producer.Malaysia was the first country to produce sustainable oil.
Where does Palm Oil come from?
In tropical climates, a special species of palm tree produces bunches of oil-rich fruit. Plantation workers hand pick massive fruit bunches which are then squeezed to release the palm oil.
For my popcorn lovers I have a great recipe for you
- 2 Tbsp Malaysian palm oil
- 1/4c Organic popcorn kernels
- 4 Tbsp Whole Butter
- TT Truffle salt
- 2 Tbsp Parmesan Cheese, finely grated
- 1 Tsp Fresh Thyme, chopped
- 1 tsp Fresh Rosemary, finely chopped
- Put two tablespoons of palm oil in a pot. Turn burner up to medium high heat
- Add three kernels of popcorn to the pot. Wait for them to pop
- Remove the three popped kernels all 1/4 cup of popcorn. Cover the pan, give it a shake and let it sit for 30 seconds to 3 minutes. This will enable the kernels to pop faster in crispier and more evenly cooked popcorn
- Put the pot back on the stove over medium high heat with the lid slightly open so the steam can escape. When the popcorn starts to pop shake the pot around a bit. As soon as the popping tapers off, even slightly take the pot off of the burner.
- Place popped popcorn in a bowl
- Add 4 tablespoons of butter to the pot and let it melt. Stir in the chopped herbs to infuse, then add the popcorn and salt.
- Toss with cheese and salt and taste.

Musings and Articles by CST Associates and Partners
Jim Holloway believes the revised Ethical Framework gives us an accessible set of refined terms to help guide our work
I got an odd look the other day when I suggested to a wonderfully conscientious supervisee that the new Ethical Framework for the Counselling Professions1 is a supreme work of fiction. I admit that was very pointedly postmodernistic of me – not my preferred mode as it happens, but it can sometimes stimulate useful new thinking.
In this case, after a slightly tense discussion, my supervisee sat back and realised the essentially paradoxical nature of the Framework. In the plainest terms, the paradox is this: we say all these fine things in it about how superbly we conduct ourselves, and it's obvious we don't behave like that, because if we did it wouldn't be necessary to write it all down. A good way to develop this idea is to ask yourself how you would be practising differently if the Framework didn't exist.
We might say the Ethical Framework is fictional only in the sense that it's aspirational – it points you to the best version of yourself, which, unless you're a living saint, isn't going to appear.
We sit in the frame to talk and then something happens. We are the work that animates the frame. all day every day. And this hints at another basic but more personal paradox: the very best version of me is one in which I accept my imperfections.
Another supervisee told me she had no trouble at all accepting the new Framework as both excellent and flawed. She said she feels similarly about her religion: for her, it is at once emancipatory and restrictive. This led us to talk about how counselling as a vocation might have a sort of religious aspect for some counsellors, with BACP as a type of church. Could the Ethical Framework be mistaken for scriptural dogma? I really hope not. Although it could be aptly be described as our trade association's 'Articles of Faith', it has not been delivered to us as a divine revelation, and its chief scribe, Tim Bond, is not a holy prophet (as far as we know!). However, it does tell us there's a strong moral code to be followed and we're committed to following it.
While not primarily proclaimed as such, isn't supervision itself a morally based activity? Our professional lexicon seems to favour the word 'ethics' over the more pious-sounding 'morality' – though of course the Ethical Framework does lay out a list of desired moral qualities for us to nurture in ourselves. (By the way, have you noticed that 'fairness' has been dropped from the list, and 'competence' has been renamed 'diligence'? Something to ponder, briefly. I think the two new additions, 'care' and 'identity', complement the others well but need a bit of discussion to make good sense of them as active personal virtues.)
Although it's packed with enormous nominalisations ('justice', 'wellbeing', 'integrity', and so on), the Ethical Framework does give us an intelligible and manageable structure for remembering first principles, realigning values, giving shape and finding direction. In supervision sessions, ethical principles are often named but I've noticed how rarely supervisees refer to or include the Framework as a whole. I wonder about that. Perhaps there's a clue in the title: it's a framework, not the work itself. We sit in the frame to talk and then something happens. We are the work that animates the frame. And, in fact, we're still building the frame. I remind supervisees that the evolved document we have now is the result of painstaking collaboration between hundreds of peopleoveraverylongperiod–morethanthree decades in fact, if we take the new Framework as having begun its life as the first BAC Code of Ethics and Practice in 1984. That code must have had its critics back then, just as the current Framework does now. Not all my supervisees seem aware of the major concerns some BACP members have raised about the new Framework; or, if they are aware, they don't hold particularly strong views about them. The debate is important and I feel we owe it to our fellow professionals to keep up with the arguments, even if we don't always know where we stand. For a clear summary of the ideological, statutory and legal issues, I recommend Peter Jenkins' helpful article and the eloquent correspondence in Therapy Today between Arthur Musgrave, Els van Ooijen and Tim Bond.
Despite perhaps being read by some practitioners as a worthy collection of numbered rules, the Ethical Framework clearly expects us to think for ourselves – and we expect this of ourselves, surely. See the very last sentence (item 78): 'We will take responsibility for considering how best to act... and will be ready to explain why we decided to respond in the way we did.' We know from experience that describing our work in regular supervision is the best method to practise being 'ready to explain'. The way I see it, because the Framework has wrestled for years with some vague, unwieldy or obtuse terminology to do with values, qualities and principles, we now have an accessible set of refined terms to help us shape our explanations. By using this shared language in actual practice, we contribute to its further refinement. And the whole point of learning this language is to comprehend and contain the moral and ethical uncertainties brought into the supervisory space through our clients' stories. The ethical world we seek to construct may be a fiction, but it's always real people who live in it.

Jeannie Gray, Moore House Care and Education, West Lothian
For young people who experience stressful or traumatic events during childhood, the world around them can feel terrifying and lonely.
Moore House Care and Education offers a nurturing and therapeutic care approach to develop safe, trusting and loving relationships essential in promoting the wellbeing of young people. Jeannie Gray works with young people in residential care who are living through their adverse childhood experiences, those who are isolated from family and community. She utilises youth work as a highly successful early intervention approach offering wider achievement opportunities such as The Duke of Edinburgh's Award, Dynamic Youth Awards and Dare to Lead.
Her colleague Mhairi MacRaild knows the life changing impact that Jeannie has:
"Her drive, creativity and determination enables our young people to have experiences others may take for granted, creating memories that will stay with them throughout their lives."
The Street, Regenfx Youth Trust, South Lanarkshire
One of a kind, there is only one Street, and many have found a brighter future by taking a walk down it. Regenfx delivers a unique Youth Diversion Programme in areas of significant deprivation. The Street uses a blend of youth work and immersive theatre to tackle issues in gritty reality. The performance is developed and delivered by young people, who have been involved in or are the victims of offending or risk-taking behaviour. The young people referred to the project each carry out more than 500 voluntary hours over the year, including two live performances every week for six months, in a freezing cold warehouse, now that is dedication! This fresh approach with an emphasis on youth participation and peer mentoring has produced some impressive results. 70% increased school attendance and over the last nine years, 84% of participants have secured employment and further training.
Modo - Circus with Purpose, Aberdeenshire
A 46% drop in anti-social behaviour, that's the impact of Modo. And they are indeed circus with purpose, using circus skills to help young people improve life skills, confidence and self-esteem while celebrating the culture and community of their local area. In the last year over 600 local youngsters have used the drop-in café every week, where they have the opportunity to play sport, get involved with a variety of creative or wellbeing sessions and speak one-to-one with youth workers about issues they are facing in life.
The project has overwhelming support from Police Scotland and the local community. It has brought together young people from all backgrounds and cultures in the area, a space that belongs to them, free of judgement but rich in opportunity and ultimately hope of a more positive path.

For the sushi rice, combine 1/4 cup rice wine vinegar, 1 tablespoon sugar, 1/3 tablespoon mirin, and 1/3 tablespoon salt and heat until sugar and salt are dissolved. Set aside.
Rinse and drain 2 cups of uncooked sushi rice 3 times, gently rubbing the rice between your palms a few times. Drain into a fine mesh sieve and let sit for 30 minutes. Place rice into a large heavy bottomed pan. Add in 2 and 1/4 cups water. Bring to a boil. Cover and cook for 1 minute on high. Reduce to medium, cook for another 4 minutes. Reduce to low and cook 10 minutes. Remove from heat. Take off lid and place a clean towel over the pot. Let rest for 10 to 15 minutes.
Place hot rice into a large bowl. Using a sushi paddle or flat rubber spatula, you want to add the vinegar mixture into the rice while simultaneously turning the rice and fanning it to cool down. I use a hair drier set on the cool setting. Carefully and gradually pour the vinegar mixture over the rice. Keeping the cold air blowing on it, gently fold the rice over with the paddle. Continue to do this till the rice is room temperature.
Now that you have your sushi rice you can fill it with whatever you want! Here is the recipe for sunflower seed spicy "tuna" that works well inside sushi rolls. Along with this, you can add avocado, cucumber, carrots, gluten free tempura crunch, etc.
3 to 4 tablespoons Veganaise
Sriracha to taste
1 to 3 small pickled beets for color
2 teaspoons kelp flakes or crushed nori
Juice from 1 lemon
1 teaspoon tamari
Soak the sunflower seeds in hot water for about 15 minutes. Drain and place in a food processor. Add in the Veganaise, Sriracha, beets, kelp, lemon juice, and tamari. Pulse until almost smooth. Taste and adjust seasoning. I put this mixture into a piping bag fitted with a medium round tip which makes it really easy to put into the sushi roll.

A high performance implementation of the JavaScript programming language. Built on the GraalVM by Oracle Labs.
Getting Started
The best way to get started with Graal.js is via the GraalVM, which includes compatible versions of everything you need as well as Graal.js.
GraalVM provides two main commands to execute applications,
bin/js and
bin/node. The first,
js, is a pure JavaScript (ECMAScript 2017) engine. The second,
node, executes an instance of Node.js (v8.9.4) on top of Graal.js
In addition, you can use
bin/npm to install Node.js packages as normal with the Node package manager.
Graal.js aims to:
- Run idiomatic JavaScript code as fast as possible
- Provide full compatibility with Node.js applications, including native packages
- Add fast and low-overhead interopability with languages natively supported on the JVM, e.g., Java, Scala, or Kotlin
- Add fast and low-overhead interopability with other GraalVM languages like Ruby, Python, or R
- Provide new tooling such as debuggers and monitoring
- All while being fully standard compliant to the latest ECMAScript specification (2017, currently)
Extensive documentation is available in
For instance, a guide how to build Graal.js from source code can be found in
Current Status
Graal.js is compatible with the ECMAScript 2017 specification. New features, e.g. for the upcoming 2018 edition, are added frequently. In addition, some popular extensions of other engines are supported, see
Graal.js can execute Node.js applications. It provides high compatibility with existing npm packages, with high likelyhood that your application will run out of the box. This includes npm packages with native implementations. Note that you will need to re-compile from source with Graal.js if you want to run binaries that have beeen compiled for Node.js based on V8, or any other compatible engine.
Common questions about the status of Graal.js
Does the npm modules
XYZ work?
We test a large share of npm modules, and most of them pass all their tests. Among those we fail one or more tests, often the setup is causing the failure, not incompatibilities in the JavaScript engine. We will publish a list of passing and/or failing modules shortly.
If you are interested in executing an npm module and it fails on Graal.js, we would like to hear about the failure and your usage scenario. Please get in touch with us!
What is SubstrateVM and how does it influence JavaScript execution?
You don't need a JVM to run Graal.js. With the SubstrateVM it is possible to produce a single, statically linked native binary executable version of Graal.js, which doesn't need any JVM to run.
If you use a binary build of GraalVM to run Graal.js, by default you will be using SubstrateVM. You can deactivate it and use a normal JVM instead with the
--jvm flag.
Can Graal.js run on a standard JVM?
It is possible to run on an unmodified JDK 9 but you will have to build Graal yourself and we recommend using GraalVM instead.
It is possible to run just the JavaScript engine (without Node.js) support on any JDK 8 or newer. Note, however, that this will imply a performance penalty, as only the Graal compiler can optimize Graal.js execution.
The discussion on gitter is a good way to get in touch with us. You can also send an email to firstname.lastname@example.com.
Mailing list
Announcements about GraalVM, including Graal.js, are made on the graalvm-dev mailing list.
The main authors of Graal.js in order of joining the project are:
- Andreas Woess
- Christian Wirth
- Danilo Ansaloni
- Daniele Bonetta
- Jan Stola
- Jakub Podlesak
- Tomas Mysik
- Jirka Marsik
- Thomas Würthinger
- Josef Haider
- Christian Humer
Collaborations with:
And others.
Graal.js is available under the following license:
- The Universal Permissive License (UPL), Version 1.0; https://opensource.org/licenses/UPL
Graal.js contains code derived from OpenJDK Nashorn, Node.js, and V8.

This society's goal is to celebrate strong women and their achievements. One of Annie Oakley's famous quotes, "Aim High and Dream Big," was displayed on screens at the Luncheon to remind guests; they can do anything if they put their mind to it. Mary Ellen pushes this motto on our team because she started with a dream and has transformed that dream into the ever growing Eventures!
This year's event design was inspired by spring fashion runways! The stage displayed white cutouts of palm trees giving the event a fresh, tropical vibe.

In the author world, they call it "writers block": that period when a writer hits a theoretical wall and is unable to produce new work, lacks inspiration and experiences a creative slowdown.
In photography, we call it – you guessed it – "photographers block". Very original. It's when your photography (and editing) plateaus and you start to feel like you're no longer creating standout images. Almost as if your wheels are spinning but you are not progressing as fast as you used to when you first started out. Sadly, it can be a common place to find yourself in. And, admittedly, it's where I found myself not too long ago.
In this article, I'll share a simple method you can use today that will help you to recognize strong compositional elements so that you can overcome a creative rut, continue to create interesting shots and compose better images in camera.
Recognize compositional elements
Strong composition is a key ingredient in a good photo recipe. It's likely you're familiar with the "rules of composition", like the rule of thirds, filling the frame, leading lines, etc, so I won't bore you with repetitive content.
It's great having these rules and structures in place, but what happens when you can't see a good photo to apply these rules to? How far will these rules and structure get you then?
Creating beautiful images relies on you being able to see and arrange an interesting assortment of photographic elements such as tone, light, lines, contrast, shapes and texture. You'll find that the sooner you start to recognize these compositional elements the easier you'll find it to compose stronger images and continue on your quest to create beautiful photographs.
Here's that simple method I promised that will help you to easily recognize these strong elements and begin to see better photos.
We're going to take a look at removing distractions. Now, you may have heard me harp on about removing distractions in your images during one of my own library videos or articles for Digital Photography School. If so, you'll be well aware of how distractions make it so much harder for the viewer to connect with your photos. And the same applies to you when taking photographs.
When you're taking a photo, there is one particular nemesis that causes a huge distraction for you and can make your job of composing stronger images that much harder. And its name is Colour.
Set Your Camera to Monochrome
There is something freeing about shooting in black and white – perhaps it's because it removes the distraction of colour and reveals the core elements of your image such as tonal contrast, lighting, and texture.
Now, I'm not suggesting that you turn your focus entirely to producing black and white photography. However, by setting your camera to black and white and removing colour, you'll be able to instantly recognize the tonal contrast, textures, lighting and shapes that pull your images together.
It's a way of working with and focusing on the core structure of your compositions, so you can start to "see better" and create interesting images.
Another benefit of switching to monochrome mode is that your camera will display your images in monochrome on its LCD screen. In some of the more recent cameras it will also display a black and white preview in Live View mode, which almost feels like cheating in truth. You get to see precisely how the elements of your images interact live, which makes it super easy for you to evaluate what is going on inside your images.
By shooting in this way you may also find that you'll begin to take photos of subjects that you wouldn't ordinarily take a photo of if you were working with your camera in colour. This will definitely help you to overcome "Photographers Block".
"But what if I want my photos in colour?"
Just before you go all gung-ho, set your camera to Black and White and start calling yourself Ansel Adams, there is a particular way you can set your camera up so it gives you the best of both worlds.
Your camera makes it possible to strip away the colour as you are shooting, so you can enjoy all of the compositional benefits of shooting in black and white, and at the same time capture all of the colour information. This means that when you import your image into Lightroom or Photoshop you will still be able to process the image in full colour despite shooting it in black and white.
Here's precisely how you can do it.
Step One: JPEG and RAW
Go pick up your camera and hop into your camera's Settings menu. Navigate to the setting that allows you to change the size, format and quality of your images. Set your camera to save your pictures in both RAW and JPEG. It should look something like this.
Step Two: Monochrome
Staying in your camera's menu system, navigate to the setting that allows you to apply a "picture style" to your images. Different camera manufacturers refer to this slightly differently. There is a list below that may help you to find the setting in your camera. Once you have found it, set your "picture style" to Monochrome (or black and white).
Canon – Picture Style
Nikon – Picture Control
Sony – Creative Style
Olympus – Picture Mode
Fujifilm – Film Simulation
Step Three: Have fun shooting!
By completing steps one and two, you have essentially told your camera to do two things:
- Record a RAW image of every photo you shoot (this RAW image will contain all of the colour information); and
- Record a JPEG image of every photo you shoot (this JPEG image will be the Monochrome version).
You will now be able to view your images in black and white as you're shooting. This will make composing and "seeing the shot" easier.
And because you're also recording a RAW image, this will load into Lightroom or Photoshop in full colour.
Step Four: Importing
By default, Lightroom will handle your JPEG+RAW images as a single RAW file when you import them into your library.
Note: If you would prefer Lightroom to import the RAW + JPEG files separately, navigate to your Lightroom settings and check the "Treat JPEG files next to RAW files as separate photos" checkbox prior to importing the files.
Well, there you have it. A pretty straightforward method that you can use today to help you "see the shot", overcome your "photographers block" and continue on your merry way to crafting beautiful images.
Let's take a few seconds to recap.
- Use this method to practise recognising strong compositional elements such as texture, tonal contrast, shapes and lighting.
- Make it easier for yourself to see these elements and compose stronger images by setting your camera to Monochrome (black and white) mode.
- Be sure to set your camera to capture each image in both JPEG and RAW so you are able to evaluate, on-the-go, in black and white whilst retaining a full colour RAW version of each shot.
By shooting in black in white first, you're working with the core elements of your photographs. I encourage you to give it a try. Grab your camera, go for a walk around your house and notice how shooting in monochrome encourages you to capture shots you might've overlooked in colour and helps you to "see the shot".
The colouring in will come later – a little like a colouring-in book. Practise getting the outlines and core elements right and then hop into Lightroom and Photoshop to bring it all to life.
Speak soon.

A billboard advertising a Massachusetts jewelry store has stirred up some controversy.
The advertisement on Route 20 in Charlton, promoting Farieri Jewelers in Sturbridge, shows a man proposing on one knee on a football field.
"If you're going to take a knee this season, please have a ring in your hand," the billboard reads.
In-depth news coverage of the Greater Boston Area.
"It takes a little kick on what's going on with the NFL, and just kind of bringing it into our industry," said store owner Scott Garieri.
But what may have been Garieri's intention of a lighthearted joke, playing off of Colin Kaepernick's protest of kneeling during the national anthem, has been interpreted very differently by some people.
"That's crazy. I mean, I don't really understand it, they really picking on Kaepernick," said Taron Sumlin. "At the end of the day, he stood up for what he believed in."
"Because that's disrespectful because he took a knee, and people have got their own opinion, but it's just very disrespectful," added Chris Honeywood.
"They could probably think of something classier to use than talking about something so controversial," said Melissa McDonald.
Garieri says his daughter, who also works at the small, family-owned jewelry store, received death threats after trying to explain the billboard to commenters online.
"It's not meant to be racist, it's just -- it's a billboard," said Garieri. "We're just trying to poke fun at a little something, get a little attention, do a little business."
Garieri says while he wasn't trying to make a political statement, he also doesn't agree with NFL players kneeling in protest.
"When it comes down," said Garieri, "if I have to make a choice, I'm going to stand behind the veterans of the United States."
Despite the controversy, Garieri says he has no intentions of taking the billboard down.

From his aerial perch
a starling
chips at the wintering sky
I'm much better at recognising birds when I see them than by their calls, but I've started to recognise the jays and the azure winged magpies, though I really only know one from the other by the number of voices heard at once; the hoopoe is quite familiar, too, and I've now come to associate a sort of hollow rattling cackle with the starlings. (I was going to describe the noise as a 'grackle', but find that that is actually the name of a bird, which is a bit confusing.)
There are a few other calls that are totally unmistakable, of course, and I was startled the other day to hear a cuckoo loud and clear. Even in Spain, it's really not that time of year. At the same time, there was also a beautiful clear melifluous song that I didn't recognise, and I went out and walked all round the house trying to work out where it came from.
I spotted a flutter of long-tailed tits between the fruit trees along the drive, and a few of the other common and garden visitors, but nothing big enough to make the kind of song I'd heard. And anyway, once I'd got outside, it had got a lot fainter. So I went back indoors, and there it was again.
Eventually I realised that I had fogotten to turn down the volume on my computer while I was researching a hotel I had to write about. Most hotel sites have background music, which is irritating enough, but this one – an eminently ecological resort – had a soundtrack of birdsong. I wasn't amused.

Three men accused of killing former Rwandan interior minister Seth Sendashonga were set free on Thursday by a Kenyan court, which blamed the Rwandan government for the murder, the Internews press service reported. The High Court Judge, Msagha Mbogholi, ruled that Sendashonga's murder was political. He said the suspects - David Akiki Kiwanuka, Charles Muhanji Wamuthoni and Christopher Lubanga Mulondo - were not at the scene where Sendashonga and his driver were murdered in Nairobi's Parklands suburb on 16 May 1998. The judge said the Kenyan government had failed to prove that the three, who have been in custody since May 1998, murdered the former minister and his driver, Jean Bosco Nkurubukeye.
"The late Sendashonga fell out with the Rwandan authorities and resigned as a minister. He must have known a lot about the system. He was set to testify in the French tribunal and the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda in Arusha. His elimination was therefore imminent," Judge Mbogholi said. He added that the Kenyan police did not carry out proper investigations because the Rwandan government failed to waive the diplomatic immunity of suspects at their embassy in Kenya to facilitate prosecution.
Sendashonga was a member of the Rwandan Patriotic Front (RPF) government that took power after the April-June 1994 genocide. He resigned in August 1995 and went into exile in Kenya.

They provide an overview of the work of museums in 18 of the 20 counties (since the reports for the City of Zagreb and the County of Zagreb are published, because of organizational and financial reasons as a separate publication). The annual reports provide insight into the work of Croatian museums – acquisitions, documentation, educational activities, research and cataloguing, exhibitions, publications, number of visits and other segments of museum activities. All the information is clearly laid out according to administrative and geographical divisions (by counties) and according to professional topics. The reports provide you with an opportunity of analyzing, comparing and studying the activities of Croatian museums. Editor: Tea Rihtar Back Numbers 2006. 2005. 2004. 2003. 2002. 2001. 2000. 1999.

I guess it's just a different time and a different way of life. Growing up, I never had to be told to take out the garbage or mow the lawn - it was just assumed that those were my responsibilities with my mom and dad working and my way of earning "my keep" as far as food and clothing. Not once, during my entire period of high-school life, did my father ever tell me that the lawn need to be mowed or the garbage needed to be taken out.
So needless to say - my room was never a mess, and most of the time my bed was made no sooner than I woke up in the morning.
For whatever reason, I didn't hold my own kids to the same exact standard as they grew up. I compromised.. "Just because I was in the military doesn't mean they are... too much on their plates, too many post-school activities, more homework than I ever had, etc." Not that I didn't expect them to clean up after themselves, but it was indeed a different standard from what I was held to growing up.
I've spent much of my adult life in the military, so in my view - cleanliness is indeed next to Godliness. But I look at my kids' cars they drive around today, filthy... empty soda cans lying on the floorboards, snack wrappers, empty fast-food bags, clothes that have been in there for months... I just can't comprehend they whys or hows. I assume that it's just this generation, but for the life of me I can't come to grips with what amounts to outright laziness. I was just as busy as they are today, but took the time to take care of my responsibilities.
My first car always beaded up after a rain. You know why? Because every three weeks I waxed it. If there was the smallest speck of dust on the dashboard - I'd grab a rag and wipe it down. My windows? It looked like my car had no windows - they were that clean.
Kids these days.... don't even get me started. I guess I've no one but myself to blame, society didn't raise my kids. But I certainly didn't hold their feet to the fire like my folks did with me.
PA-PLAYA My dad made us work for hours pretty much every Saturday and I hated it. So when I became a dad I vowed not to do that to my kids.
Well, it kind of back-fired.
My parents told me early on that if I looked around there will be people with more money and others with less money, pretty much no matter what my accounts add up to.
Nice the dad sacrificed some funds for what the kid likes!
Oh and I only wash my car after it snows!
Wait until they have to work for a living.
" The world needs ditch diggers too"...Judge Smails
Some don't intend to work for a living. They want to invent something in the garage and become a billionaire over night .
Many are sitting on their arz waiting to be hired into a high paying job. Most are staying at home with the parents or the grand parents ( waiting to cash in their inheritance with no job they want to work and no money to pay the rental on their own ). At least their family took them in. There are million on the street without a place to go home to.
Funny thing is, a high percentage of these kids are college graduates, educated, with no or little work experience.
It is one thing to be sure you kids are educated, but another to teach them the value of and to enjoy working or "being productive." It seems the word "work" is not pc with today's youth.
A bumper sticker I always remember from years past, it was on the campus of Western Michigan University - "PLEASE be careful - Dad didn't buy it"
So then you got to work those Saturdays. LOL...
My kids did alright. It was different for my daughter because she was so involved with school-related stuff once she got into high school, be it with clubs, field hockey, writing for the school sports newsletter staff, etc. so she was fairly busy much of the time. Then midway through her high school experience we relocated to London for two years, so she finished up her last two years of HS at a school that was much more academically advanced than her HS was back home, plus they had a lot more extracurricular activities than her former school and she dove right into the thick of things to make new friends and feel like she belonged. She was an excellent student, got excellent grades, and was just really a completely different kid from my son.
My son was an okay student despite not caring much for school and applying himself better, but worked p/t jobs for extra money here and there his last couple of years in HS.
My big thing wasn't so much about the money aspect, but more so that I just wanted them to stay busy and productive, or at least busy enough to stay out of trouble. We had a few speed bumps along the way but everything worked out.
The tough thing for me, and something I still struggle with, is relating to their generation. As a teenager I wasn't exposed to 1/3 of the stuff that they were exposed to... including the opportunities to go places, see things, learn a different culture, etc. And for that matter - opportunities in other forms too, some of which were good, some that were not so good as well... lol Back when I was in HS - I might've snuck out for 1 or 2 parties per year... hell, teenagers these days have that covered in less than a month. And I would NEVER EVER tell my folks, "Hey - just so you know - there's probably going to be alcohol there, but don't worry - I know not to drink and drive or ride with someone else that has been drinking!" If my mom caught wind of me drinking? I still flinch at the thought of catching a frying pan upside my head. That was an automatic grounded-for-life deal too.
But if you're the parent of a teenage HS kid today and you don't think they're partying and drinking or maybe smoking some weed - man... you just ain't paying attention. Oh, it's going on... probably a lot more than most parents want to know.
It was tough for me to distinguish between forcing them to maintain some of the necessary rules and standards that still applied 30 years later, from those that just aren't practical any longer. I compromised a few things, simply because I couldn't relate to their youth experience today versus mine way back when. But I never compromised being a responsible Dad in exchange to be their friend. And because of that, fortunately, I enjoy both of those aspects today, so I guess everything worked out.

Well, it kind of back-fired.
rsvman My dad made us work for hours pretty much every Saturday and I hated it. So when I became a dad I vowed not to do that to my kids.
I noticed a change of attitude from my kids after they'd started their first real part time job, while going through college.
They learned to appreciate our giving much better.
My son now owns my previous car. It pains me to see the mess inside of it. I still like that car.
Ther's a marked difference between boys and girls. My daughter went to Ivy League schools for 7 years, is now an architect livivg in NYC with her family, working 70 hour weeks, likes her work , but hates her jobpressures. My son, who we barely got thru 4 years of culinary college, is now an Executive Chef,married , 2kids and is happy as a clam. If you would have asked me to predict the future 20 years ago, I would have said their fortunes would have been reversed. What I took away from from this whole experience was " all actions have a consequence". Rambling over.
Always true, Love your work , and you will put n more effort and do a better job without much complain. The result may be both satisfying to your ego and financially rewarding .
You son seemed to enjoy what he does for a living and that is a very good thing. Kitchen work is hard work though. He could also retire in a few years if he plan ahead to open a few restaurants.
Work pressure exist in every profession these days ( unless one works for the government or the State ). It'll be more tolerable if one loves the work .
Spartan My son now owns my previous car. It pains me to see the mess inside of it. I still like that car.
Kids around here only take the nice hand me down cars from their parents. Something like in my garage they'e rather not have and I'd rather not give the old cars to them. One is 143K and one is 166K but still runs fine.
A neighbors kid just got his driver's license so his mother gave him her low mileage 2010 Accura MDX and she got a new 2016 model.
My first car ever was a used 10 years old Pontiac. Served me well for many years.
Release The car was a 10 year old Acura RSX Type S with about 175,000 miles on it. But it was in great shape and still ran well. On the rare occasions that I drive it, it's still a fun car. It's just disappointing that he doesn't keep it neater, but I didn't really expect him too.
understand that totally.
It's like an old golf club, worth little but hard to donate if known it would not be taken care of.

Jello Chills Food Typography
If the icy beat and hot lights kissing your spine doesn't give you chills, I can't help you. This tactile lettering is both edible and fluorescent, black light dancing off its otherworldly surface. The soft pink and purple glow feels nostalgic and magical, sensual while playful.
One of many ASMR experiments that shifted into something literally palatable and vaporwave reminiscent. The concept was to give the viewer chills or frissons from the combined effect of the imagery and audio sensations. I vector illustrated and 3D printed the mold to say "Give me Chills" and researched fluorescent food after being inspired by my museum's blacklight poster exhibit. After several days and batches of testing, I created the sturdiest, most responsive recipe for edible jello and decided a typical low-fi ASMR video wasn't enough; I had to capture proper footage. All effects are in-camera, minus some stabilization. Combined with the reserve track, the final cut is chill-worthy.

Coach Beiste found herself a sweet and appropriate beau this week on Glee, and if the unlikely football coach can find a love interest, then there's hope for anyone out there -- just look at Up All Night's Ava and Kenny on Man Up!, who got their own doses of tenderness, too (for now, anyways). We've identified these other lovelorn and lonely TV characters who most seem like they (and their shows) would benefit from a little bit of romance in their lives.
10. Finch (Person of Interest)
We know so little about Finch's personal life that it is possible that he has a husband or wife secreted away somewhere who we've yet to discover. But considering that the world thinks he's dead and he's a constant workaholic who spends all of his time staring at numbers and wearing drab clothing, it seems unlikely. If someone gave this sad little computer genius a hug once in a while, his life would seem less depressing. Maybe he'd even start wearing colors.
9. Jack Porter (Revenge)
Our hearts broke for small-town bar owner Jack Porter when he confessed his love for the revenge-minded Emily Thorne/Amanda Clarke only to watch her walk away and go back to her boyfriend/vehicle for vengeance, Daniel Grayson. Between Emily's rejection, his dad's death, his younger brother's selfish ways and a bar that's only a few slow nights away from going under, it's no wonder that Jack looks sad all the freakin' time. Can he place a want ad for a saucy barmaid? Must love dogs.
8. Lynette Scavo (Desperate Housewives)
In this trial separation, idiot Tom gets to spend his time with the wonderful Jane (Andrea Parker), while Lynette has no one to love. Though this is entirely her own fault for being such an unlikable human being all the time, it would genuinely be nice to see Lynette finally be with someone who has a backbone and who knows how to make her happy. (We'd even settle on the return of sexy pizza man Rick Coletti.) Yes, she's a busy single mom and it might be hard to find the time to date, but lucky for her, Penny is the only one of her ten children who are even around these days.
7. Lisa Shay (Suburgatory)
Tessa's been in town all of five minutes and has already had a hot hookup with Lisa's brother, but yet Lisa herself is in a sad little high school bubble where she's perpetually ignored, even by the other losers at her school. Is there not a chess club in Chatswin with a guy who would appreciate her awkwardness, and be willing to deal with her neurotic mother and appalling brother?
6. Dr. Sheldon Wallace (Private Practice)
It's a bit sad that Sheldon on The Big Bang Theory has better luck with women than this Sheldon. He's a trained psychiatrist, a bit nebbishy, but supposedly quite... um, gifted in the bedroom. Yet he only seems to attract totally unavailable women (Violet) or drug addicted nutjobs (Amelia). We're not shrinks, but even we know he's on a self-destructive relationship path.
5. Schmidt (New Girl)
He's an eager young guy who has no idea how to behave around women, and instead does all of the most unattractive douchebag things he can to impress ladies. It's been a largely unsuccessful strategy, as oiled-up abs don't draw the kind of attention he really wants. There's got to be a woman out there who is willing to overlook that (perhaps she lives on the Jersey Shore?) and we think if given the chance, he'd probably be a decent boyfriend. All it takes is a birdlike cat to keep him in check.
4. Birkhoff (Nikita)
He's a super genius, brilliantly sarcastic, insanely good with computers, rich as all hell (way to steal from the government!) and loyal to a fault. But he doesn't seem to get out much... living in an underground lair and being on the run from Division will do that to a person. Instead he has to watch as Nikita and Michael make goo-goo eyes at each other, while he just supports them and puts his life on the line. Can't he hack into an online dating site for his perfect mate?
3. Manny Delgado (Modern Family)
He tries harder than anyone else on this show to win the affections of ladies, but so far his efforts have been for naught. It seems that young women these days don't appreciate a boy who knows how to dance, dress snazzy and appreciates the finer things in life. What he needs is his neighborhood's answer to Rory Gilmore; a young lady who understands how important relationships with mothers are and can drink copious amounts of coffee.
2. Raj (The Big Bang Theory)
His dating life has been... dreary. Mostly because he can't talk around women unless he's totally wasted. At which point he turns into a total ladies' man. But being a functioning alcoholic is a difficult way to live. He almost had something with that nice deaf girl, but she was just after him for his money. Perhaps he could find a woman who just likes to communicate via text message? It might work. It's got to be easier than having Howard around to translate for him all the time. Because nothing puts a damper on sexual feelings faster than Howard Wolowitz.
1. Dean Pelton (Community)
This eager little beaver desperately tries to insinuate himself in any possible scenario in order to make friends, and even uses his authority as Dean to abuse email privileges. He's by far the most unique individual we've been introduced to in a long time. While we've never seen the flamboyant dresser actually date, and we're not 100 percent sure which gender he prefers (not that it's necessary to pick one or the other), we think we've got a lock on his type; it's a long, lean person who enjoys tight-fitting jeans, is easily blackmailed and loves karaoke. Also, he seems to like people who are emotionally abusive to him. Does Greendale have an S&M club?

KENNY Shiels has said he will be forced into changes to the back four ahead of City's trip in the SSE Airtricity Permier Division to the Showgrounds tonight, Saturday, April 7, (kick off 7.45 pm).
The Derry boss is planning without Darren Cole and could well also be missing Jack Doyle after both picked up injuries in Monday's EA Sports Cup win in Ballybofey.
On a more positive note Shiels does have a couple of options ready to come back into the squad and he also added that Rory Patterson, who hobbled off after the Harps contest, will be fit for the weekend.
"Darren is out and Jack looks extremely doubtful but Rory is OK," he told the club's website derrycityfc.net
"It isn't ideal to have to change things too much but we do have options. Gavin Peers, Niall Logue and Scot Whiteside will likely be added to the squad for Sligo."
"We're in a really tough run of games at the minute but I think we're in a better place now than when we went there at the start of the season.
"Our record hasn't been great at the Showgrounds but we're now five wins from six in all competitions since our last visit" added the City manager.
Tickets can be bought online from Sligo Rovers' website here.

The majority of cast iron reproduction fireplaces are sold nowadays with a gas fire in mind and so we do nor supply all the parts for burning coal as standard.
If you want to burn solid fuel such as coal or logs on your fire you'll need a Solid Fuel Kit. This is a grate, an ashpan with an ashpan tool and a solid fuel flue flap.
The grate supports the coal or wood and is raised up from the ground so that air can flow from underneath to feed the burning fuel. A variety of grates are available to match the profile of the fire bars and minimise the gap that burning fuel might fall through.
The ashpan collects the burnt fuel that falls through the slots in the grate. The ashpan tool enables you to manouvre the ashpan whilst it is still hot.
The Solid Fuel Flue Flap enables you to close off the flue when the fire is not in use to prevent draughts.
This is different to a gasfire flue flap which by law may never be closed. It is also strongly recommended that you do not light your coal fire with the flue flap closed as the house will fill with smoke and fumes very quickly!
Most solid fuel kits comprise a grate, an ashpan, an ashpan tool and a flue flap that can be fully closed to prevent draughts when the fire is not in use.
