Camera Raw is Adobe’s interpreter for raw camera files. These files are not pictures, but just a dump of the raw data from the camera’s sensor, which needs to be decoded and turned into an image before you can even view it (cameras create a small JPG thumbnail to show on their screens).

Third stimulus checks are protected from being seized for tax, child support and other government debts. However, private creditors and debt collectors can use stimulus funds to cover fees such as civil damages or consumer debt.

That’s the latest theory among researchers trying to unravel the mystery of the childhood-obesity epidemic. Though the startling three-decade rise in childhood obesity appears to have leveled off, according to a new study published in this week’s issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association, researchers say the rate is still way too high: more than three times that of the 1970s.
