Get crackin!
The peak of Oregon Dungeness Crab season runs from December to April, with the best supply hitting your Market Meat & Seafood Department in January. Watch for updates on supply and special pricing on our website, as well as Facebook and Instagram.
Get cookin!
You can purchase the crab whole and clean it yourself, or you can ask your Market Fishmonger to clean the crab for you. Some special utensils you'll want to have on hand include seafood picks and seafood crackers; alternately, nut crackers work well in a pinch. Refrigerate whole crab until ready to eat.
Place uncooked crab in boiling salt water and cook 18-20 minutes or until the shell turns bright orange. Immerse in cold water. If the crab is precooked, boil 7-8 minutes.
Get cleaning!
- Flip up the "apron" on the bottom side of the crab and use your thumb to break it off at the back of the shell.
- Remove the top shell. Holding the base of the crab with one hand, place your thumb under the mid-point of the shell and pull it off. Gently scrap away the gills and wash the viscera under a heavy stream of cold water.
- Remove the mandibles. The mandibles are the mouthparts at the front of the crab. Crack them off and toss them out, then rinse until all that remains is the shell and meat.
- Turn the crab upside down, hold it on either side, and place your thumbs near the midline on the back. Push up with your thumbs and pull down with your hands; the crab should crack in half easily. Pull the pieces apart.
Enjoy every delicious bite!
Serve Oregon Dungeness Crab warm, straight from the shell and dipped in butter and served with lemon wedges for a mouthwatering treat. You can pick the meat out with a utensil or simply slurp it out. Or try one of these recipes.

The first evening performance of the 2006 Tennessee Walking Horse National Celebration presented the five judges with some outstanding entries and they liked what they saw and pretty much agreed. Six of the 16 classes were tied unanimously; 6 classes saw two different horses get a first place vote and four classes offered a nod from one of the judges to 3 entries. Wink Groover and Tommy Loid picked the winner 13 times, Ronnie Spears 12 fimes, Huck Moss 11 times and Jamie Bradshaw 10 times. Through 3 sessions, the judges have looked at 41 classes with 16 unanimous ties, 14 classes saw two different horses receive a first place vote, 10 classes had three different horses with a first place vote while only 1 class has had five different horses selected for honors by the panel. Wink Groover and Ronnie Spears have tapped the winner in 32 classes each, Tommy Loid has been on the money 31 times, Jamie Bradshaw has picked 30 winners while Huck Moss has voted for the eventual winner 27 times.

Credit Rating
Credit Rating denotes, broadly speaking, a summary Credit Risk indicator (also Credit Risk Rating) that assesses the Risk Profile of an entity or product on a defined Rating Scale. Most typically a credit rating is an assessment of Creditworthiness of a Corporate Borrower generally or with respect to a particular debt or financial obligation (Ability and Willingness to Pay).
- A credit rating is a subjective opinion offered by a specific entity (for example a Credit Rating Agency).
- A credit rating is intrinsically a forward looking opinion. Some of the information underpining the assessment will have a (more or less) empirical basis and could e.g., be verified to some degree of certainty, but very significant elements of forming a rating opinion will reflect projections about likely futures.
- A credit rating is an independent opinion aiming to address the Asymmetric Information between borrowers and lenders.
- A credit rating is a competent opinion. In principle anyone possessing adequate credit related information about a borrower and a fit-for-purpose Credit Rating Methodology can produce such a opinion.
- Different jursidictions may impose regulatory requirements around the production and usage of credit ratings (See below).
Credit ratings, scales, along with other quantitative and qualitative tools and methodologies form together a Credit Rating System. Typically, a credit rating is provided as a detailed report based on the financial history of borrowing or lending and creditworthiness of the entity or person derived from income statements, historical records related to borrowing, etc. with an aim to determine their ability to meet debt obligations.
Internal credit ratings are typically produced by firms or organizations engaging in lending operations. External credit ratings are produced instead by specialized entities
Credit Rating Types
Credit Ratings can vary widely in nature. They can be categorized along several dimensions, reflecting the fact that a relatively simple labelling framework is applied across a large variety of different credit relationships:
- The type of Credit Event (or events) captured (Default Definition)
- Whether they concern Probability of Default of Expected Credit Loss
- Whether they concern a long or short term risk assessment
- Whether they concern an issuer or a specific Debt Instrument risk assessment
- Liabilities of regular entities versus liabilities of special purpose vehicles (structured finance / securitization)
- The type of issuer. Typical subcategories reflecting the peculiarities of different legal entities are
- Banks
- Insurance Companies
- Corporates
- Municipalities
- Sovereigns
In the context of Credit Rating Agencies Regulation, credit rating means an opinion regarding the creditworthiness of an entity, a debt or financial obligation, debt security, preferred share or other financial instrument, or of an issuer of such a debt or financial obligation, debt security, preferred share or other financial instrument, issued using an established and defined ranking system of rating categories (Regulation 1060/2009 Article 3(1)(a)).[1]
Issues and Challenges
Over the course of several decades of application credit ratings have revealed various pathologies. They can categorized broadly along the following two lines:
Relating to the Credit Rating concept itself
- Ability to capture (be risk sensitive) the stated risk
- Ability to communicate unambiguously the meaning of the rating
Relating to the organization of Credit Rating issuance by third parties
- Availability of adequate information to form fit-for-purpose ratings
- Prevalence of the right incentives to form fit-for-purpose ratings

How Customers Look in the Current Context
Since March 2020, we continued to see consumer behavior changes, new online practices, and a global outlook that is still concerning.
With anxiety factors about health and finances fueling uncertainty and high unemployment rates sweeping the world, we need to keep a close eye on the way people now shop, live, and consume.
Tracking demand and looking at year over year search trends, with Google Ads data as source, remains an accurate way to understand what changed for good, and what is just a fleeting trend depending on the short-term pandemic impact.
After all, if we put the consumer psychology lens in place, we mustn't forget that people are more prone to evaluate essential and non-essential goods and services for daily use right now, showing more risk-aversion than usual.
Worry drives demand, as financial issues are far from being resolved.
Look at top searches in the U.S. as of May 2020:
Following this thread, pragmatism is the driving force, as many consumers will not get back to "normal" anytime soon – a study by the Cambridge Group even coins new profiles whose core is based on immediate COVID-19 response such as Panicked Millennials (focused on household finances) or Pragmatists (focused on reducing non-essential spending).
Yet, a look at search data shows the insights in-between: more discretionary or non-essential goods are starting to bounce back in segments such as "athleisure" clothing or home entertainment, although the industries remain affected.
Even the way people look at entertainment shifts, choosing to spend leisure time close to home or in a safe manner:
On the other hand, because some people still work or spend most of their time in their houses, together with family and close friends, the home improvement segment continues to grow:
While commute and travel budgets have been put on halt for most information workers, remote work seems to be here to stay. It's what constant demand for building a home office points toward, anyway:
And a slight rising demand for car rentals and safe, private mobility in general:
Consumer intent reveals an acceleration of shifting channel preferences with a focus on online operations, although macro studies show anxiety levels regarding brick-and-mortar businesses easing a bit.
For instance, the Deloitte State of the Consumer Tracker confirms an increasing tendency in trust levels to shop in stores (49%), go to restaurants (32%), or stay in a hotel (34%) at a global level.
But the numbers remain low.
That's why a prolific avenue is to challenge the macro-level studies with search data – it's where the relevant insights dwell, helping you discern between lasting trends, spurs of the moment, and important shifts in consumer interest that influence business operations as well.
What Trends Are Emerging That Might Impact SEO Agencies
Having looked at the state of consumers today, which can prove a certain degree of familiarity for your SEO team, it's important to take this next step – look at the state of businesses and how consumer shifts generate new trends that impact the whole chain.
To pick the most relevant ones for an SEO agency, we'll employ a different lens: Gartner's Hype Cycle.
In short, the framework proposed by Gartner enables you to critically assess the promise of emerging technology through these phases:
What emerging trends can impact the current agency landscape, beyond the trough of disillusionment?
1. Remote Working as a Viable Company Set-Up
Even before the pandemic hit, the rise of remote working was visible. If the trend seemed to be somewhere between experimenting and a productive framework, with its acceleration due to COVID-19, remote work is becoming a big part of the new normal.
Recently, we've seen geographical constraints move to timezone ones, especially for synchronous companies that do most of the work together.
The challenge remains to innovate both at the level of technology and business processes to transform workflows, while also maintaining a strong organizational culture.
In addition, that means a different way of doing recruitment, supporting career growth or enabling social connections in a team. That's what Remote: office not required explores, presenting how Basecamp designed a remote-first company with all the advantages and struggles.
It's clear that the trend is here to stay, reshaping such things as telecommuting, client relationships or individual and team productivity.
2. No-Code Is Filling the Gaps of 'Software as a Process'
Software companies, in their bid to acquire more users, have started developing highly personalized solutions, influencing a business process from start to finish. That's why, we're seeing a shift in thinking about software – not just a tool, but a string of actions that dictate a certain business framework and a specific market segment.
For instance, tools like Zapier or Integromat allow for a high level of business flow customization, while Jupiter is a CRM dedicated to the beauty industry.
If we consider this business need for fast implementation and high customization, one particular trend stands out. No-code, a movement where people without programming expertise build websites and flows, like connecting two systems, using drag and drop interfaces, is growing past the early days of inflated expectations.
Transforming the traditional software development flow from "business specifications" to "software implementation", no-code essentially implies less time and money spent on coding, and more resources for optimizing business processes (marketing, sales, etc.) and discovery.
Think about helping, let's say, an AC installation supplier set up a customer management system personalized with an automation solution for qualifying leads and scheduling visits, without human intervention at every step. Or building a custom feature on top of HubSpot, to satisfy your agency specialized flows. And with no focus on the technical resources, but the process design.
3. Businesses (SMBs & Fortune 500) Are Willing to Experiment More in the Digital Environment
Talking about discovery and experimentation, the pandemic forced both small businesses and large corporate companies to look for alternatives, as digital became a primary channel for the whole funnel. If a marketing or sales backlog was available, the pandemic months were the time to review it.
It's no wonder that the search for "Shopify" exploded in May, as more businesses needed to sell online:
Digital-first frameworks have accelerated, or as a McKinsey report puts it, "we have vaulted five years forward in consumer and business digital adoption in a matter of around eight weeks."
This creates a window of opportunity for creativity and innovation, as more business processes move in digital environments: from optimizing digital infrastructure to pivoting client management and communications, rehashing customer journeys, and even identifying new segments, niches or markets that are no longer out of reach.
That also means a plethora of data needs and a way for SEO agencies to leverage their know-how.
4. Search & Discovery Fragmentation
In the U.S., more than half of the consumers start their buying journey on Amazon, instead of Google Search, statistics that you're probably familiar with. Google is also aware of this trend, which makes them continue to develop vertical aggregators like Jobs or News. And that is only one part of the search equation that goes beyond a "box and the 10 blue links", being now more dependent on behaviors than anything else.
With the fast digitization of businesses after COVID, the trend of search and discovery fragmentation is accelerating at a higher rate, challenging businesses to respond to these channel shifts while thinking more about touchpoints and a buyer quest than a seamless, singular journey.
Can this be the birth of a new innovation trigger?
5. Business Networking Is Not What It Used to Be
The pandemic drastically impacted business networking, as events are not possible in person, a trend that will probably last longer than expected. The first wave of responses was to move to online events, virtual summits, and a variety of webinars, but there's also the question of informal talks and sales meetings that need to be rethought in order to maintain the quality of interaction.
As with remote work, the geographical boundaries are not a concern anymore for finding vendors or connecting with peers, which leaves a lot of room for creativity in designing new networking processes.
What will the pitch look like in another few months? Or the sales meeting? Or the agency community meetup?
Probably another innovation trigger is shaping here.
From a critical assessment of consumer macro-trends against search data, to the way business trends have accelerated in the current context, we're starting to paint a picture of the new agency landscape.
Which are here for good and which are just a trigger in the Hype Cycle? That's an open question for you and us both.
Here's a summary of what we've seen so far in terms of Consumers and Trends:
How customers look now:

Dive Brief:
- The healthcare industry is undergoing a major transformation, and organizations that learn the new rules of the game will be the ones that succeed, CMS acting Administrator Andy Slavitt told industry leaders at the Marketplace Year 3: Issuer Insights and Innovations forum in Washington, D.C.
- The ACA set the transformation in motion, bringing millions of newly insured into the healthcare system and shifting the focus to value-based care.
- As a result of the ACA, a new $40 billion market has opened up that will continue to grow, Slavitt said.
Dive Insight:
Slavitt said there are five questions that every organization should be asking if they want to succeed in today's evolving healthcare space:
- What is your vision and cultural reference point for serving this population?
- How well do you know your customers?
- Can you build a relationship with consumers around things they need and value?
- Have you created a product that meets the needs of your customers both for service and affordability — not a commercial product, but a marketplace product?
- When you find what works, how do you replicate it into a growth strategy?
He noted, for example, that some newly insured continue to use the emergency room at high rates because they don't understand how to use the healthcare system. Services such as telemedicine, free primary care and engaging physician networks to manage and reduce bed days can cut down on ER use.
"Almost everyone, including those who are contracting this year, have told us they want to find a way to grow into this market and are still committing significant capital to getting their models right," Slavitt said. He mentioned that one commercial plan that is growing via a Medicare Advantage physician collaborative and another that sees the ACA marketplace as a way to grow a national plan.

Most business owners fall into one of two categories: those love and embrace social media, and those who loathe the very mention of it.
It can be confusing for the small, local business owner because the articles that spew the virtues of social media are seemingly never-ending.
The truth is, traditional Social Media (Facebook, Twitter, Google +, etc.) methods won't generate enough leads to support your business.
But, having a presence, even a small one, on these sites is an absolute necessity.
- It Puts a Face on Your Business – This is becoming increasingly more important both online and off. Study after study have shown that people want to do business with other people, not faceless corporations. Interacting with people on Facebook or Google + is a perfect way to make your business real and relatable. 64% of Twitter users and 51% of Facebook users are more likely to buy the products of brands they follow online. (https://www.aabacosmallbusiness.com/advisor/15-social-media-statistics-every-business-needs-know-001509118.html)
- It Powers Up Your Home Shows – If you use home shows, trade shows, or any other large event to generate leads, there is no better place to promote them, and link your company to the big shows, than on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, etc.
- It Makes You Likable – Getting "Likes," comments, or shares is now being used as a signal of credibility by Google in their search results. It's not a huge impact, but it's an increasingly important part of the puzzle. Interaction with your customers makes you more trustworthy to Google, and helps your site move up in the rankings.
- It Adds Credibility with Your Customers – We all want to be with the in-crowd. More likes, shares, and "friends," leads to more trust. If most of your competitors have 200-followers on Facebook, and you have 5,000, potential clients pick up on this. It's subtle, but it has a huge impact on making you appear trustworthy because there's strength in numbers. Studies show that over 50% of consumers have based their decision to buy on a recommendation from their social network.
If in doubt on what social media channels to use, you can always refer to the Ogilvy Guide on how to use social media:

Error Monitoring in Elm
renee balmert - july 30, 2020
bugsnag-elm has just been released! This package will let you report errors/logs to bugsnag from within your Elm code. Check out the docs and example app to see how it works!----------
After working as a Customer Engineer at bugsnag, helping devs configure error monitoring tools on dozens of platforms, it was quite a shock to land a job on an engineering team that believed it's possible to build an app that simply does not error in production (and therefore doesn't really need in-depth error monitoring).
How could a small edtech startup achieve what every other tech company failed to do? Elm. Elm is an up-and-coming frontend programming language that is strictly-typed and functional. The idea is that by switching from loosey-goosey JavaScript/React to Elm, a perfectly stable codebase can be built and deployed. "One of the guarantees of Elm is that you will not see runtime errors in practice."
And yet… this engineering team at NoRedInk had written a package to report elm "errors" to Rollbar. So clearly even the most confident of Elm programmers was aware of "things" (not errors!) that would benefit from being monitored, so I kept digging and trying to wrap my head around the whole concept.
If you've never worked in Elm, it is a language that compiles to JavaScript. So if you introduce a breaking change to the code, running the compiler will rebuild the entire ecosystem in JavaScript and notice any place within the entire Elm codebase where this new change has introduced a potential problem. The compiler checks not only that the given code works, but that any possible state for that code will work if they ever happen to occur. (E.g. if a value can be null, even if nowhere in your code ever lets it actually be null, you need to handle that possible null state in your code.) So the idea with Elm is not that it magically prevents developers from making mistakes, it's that you should be able to catch and fix every possible error in the development phase, so that by the time you deploy, everything is copacetic in every possible state.
And this is the beauty of working in Elm. Its creators put a lot of time and thought into its complier error messages. It gives you all the info you would need to identify the error (file, line number, relevant code snippet, what's wrong) and a hint at what might solve the problem. It captures everything a developer could possibly ask for in an error monitoring tool ♥, except that it only exists at compile time.
And yet… I couldn't help but notice that our front end code was far noisier than our backend code in our Rollbar dashboard. ("Oh, that's just from legacy React code") And I certainly noticed that Rollbar's dashboard UI, search capabilities, grouping algorithms and traffic control features were not as robust as bugsnag's, so I started spending my free time on a POC to see what our front-end error traffic would look like in bugsnag.
Now bugsnag supports almost every single platform under the sun. Almost. It does not have a notifier for Elm. Moreover no one in the Elm community had built their own (because production errors just aren't that much of a priority). I knew I'd have to write my own Elm notifier, but in the meantime I opted to set up our JavaScript code to report to bugsnag. No reason not to capture our janky React errors while they're still happening, but also — Elm compiles to JavaScript, so I made sure our bugsnag was setup to cover ALL our JavaScript code, just in case.
And guess what — there were errors reporting from our compiled Elm code! 😱 unpossible!!!
Despite the gargantuan strides that Elm has made towards reducing errors in production code, it isn't perfect. Errors are possible, although exceedingly rare. So, it would make sense to monitor your compiled Elm code to maybe catch a new, true error which the Elm community would be very keen to hear about.
So the goal here is to report handled errors/problems that occur in an Elm app. In my first efforts I had imagined writing a notifier that would produce error data similar to all the other frontend notifiers I had worked with at bugsnag. Like a stacktrace. A stacktrace is very helpful in debugging a problem in your code. And Elm compiles to JavaScript, and JavaScript has lovely, built-in error objects with stacktraces so - piece of cake, right?
Nope. 😬
Taking a step back, let's again examine the "no runtime errors in Elm" idea. As mentioned, our team was already using elm-rollbar to report… something to an error monitoring service. What's that about?
Sometimes as you are building something in Elm, and you think you've got it, but the compiler warns you of a case you haven't addressed. Usually it's super helpful — you had genuinely forgotten a valid case, and now the compiler has saved you. (There was much rejoicing! 🎉) But - sometimes you read the error message and can only scratch your head. "That state would NEVER happen!", you cry "just let the code run!" The compiler looks down, and whispers "No."
And this is the agony of working in Elm. If you are making a small change in one specific area of the code, but your change touches a module used throughout the codebase - well, you have to account for that change EVERYWHERE. Sometimes the work is just mildly tedious and repetitive. Sometimes you start wandering into areas of the code where you have no context and how to fix it becomes murky. Sometimes your first round of fixes triggers a second wave of needed fixed and you fall into a rabbit/worm hole and begin to question everything.
What do? 🤷🏼♀ Well, one school of thought - and often the correct path - is to truly fix it. Follow where it leads, maybe rethink the way your code is structured and how the dependencies flow. Make that state, which is impossible in the real world, impossible in your Elm code. I have seen some breathtaking examples where following the threads of confusion lead to an elegant refactor that leaves the code in a much more coherent, readable state. yay! 🍾
But, sometimes, that work is not feasible. Not that it can't possibly be done, but is the product team going to be happy you spent 3 code days doing a refactor which ultimately only helped a teeny tiny feature change come to fruition? Are your colleagues going to appreciate a swarm of code conflicts on their PRs when you touched code way outside your area of ownership? Ironically, I'm currently reading Sandi Metz's Practical Object Oriented Design right now, and am struck by her discussion of when is the right time to refactor? As an engineer, it's helpful to develop an instinct for when code has "smell", but that isn't the end of the story. Having identified a problematic area in the codebase, you then need to evaluate if it is worth fixing right now? This is a conversation I have had over and over again on my team. Is the fix valuable to the engineering team? Is it valuable to the product team? How valuable (in code hours)? One of the hardest choices I've had to make as an engineer is to walk away.
So, on the occasions when it isn't practical to rewrite the entire universe, we're back to square one — what do we do with this really weird case that should never happen? Log it. Write the code that will report its occurrence to your error monitor and then you can keep tabs on it. If your instincts are right, it will never happen and never be logged. Maybe it happens once in a blue moon. Or maybe, as time goes by, the ground shifts and someone's work in a different part of the code suddenly makes your edge case happen A LOT. Well, you are monitoring the situation, and at that point your product team can decide if it's now worth the time to fix. Voila!
All of which is to say, there is value in monitoring errors-like-things in your Elm code.
Now, let's loop back to what a typical error report looks like. Namely: a stacktrace, a code snippet, etc. None of these existed in the elm-rollbar package. I had - naively - thought I could get those working in my bugsnag-elm package. Hoooo boy. 😬
First, stacktrace. This a very common attribute of error reports in almost any programming language. It tells the story of how the heck we got into this predicament. Time and again I spoke to Elm engineers about my stacktrace dreams, but it just isn't feasible within the Elm architecture. From the compiled JavaScript's perspective, all errors will occur within the update function -- i.e. they'll all have the same, unhelpful stacktrace.
In speaking with Elm engineers, many mentioned that, rather than a traditional stacktrace, what would be most helpful would be to know the last few messages that occurred. Or the current state of the model. In this notifier I poked around with trying to automatically include the page's model state in each bugsnag report, but it didn't go very well. Debug has some lovely tools that can convert any Elm record into a nice string, but it is VERY explicitly not intended for use in production code. And it seems like one could accumulate an array of all messages called in an app session, but again -- the question, on both model and "message-trace", is how could something helpful be accomplished in a package, rather than asking engineers to explicitly write this code in each of their update functions? 🤔
So, for now, in Elm errors, there is no meaningful stacktrace. Most of the time, this is ok. We have a few crucial pieces of information that we can report:
- error - a string explaining what happened
- context - a string of the name of the module where the error happened
- metadata - a record of any other details you'd like to attach
- severity - error, warning or info
Also, there aren't even any error classes in Elm. 🤷🏼♀ Makes sense if no errors are expected to occur, but within the usual debugging world, an error class is important. In fact bugsnag uses error classes as part of its grouping algorithm. In this notifier, we are reporting what is really the error message (a human-friendly statement) as the error class (should be something like: "ReferenceError") so that we can take advantage of its visibility in the dashboard and use it for grouping, but - as a future improvement on this package - I wonder if it would be worth trying to define some general Elm (not-error) error classes.
Another common debugging tool is source maps. During my time at bugsnag by far the most frequent questions users asked involved configuring source maps correctly. Most frontend production code is minified in some way to take up less space and load faster. A source map, generated at the time of minification, is literally a map that lets you take a known spot in the minified code, and them point to the original, un-minified code which will always be easier to read and debug.
Elm, again, since it has no runtime errors — sees no need for source maps. Moreover, even if there suddenly were an interest in creating this sort of map for Elm compiled code, what we're really talking about is transpiling Elm to JavaScript which is not exactly the same thing. For example at NoRedInk, our Elm code is first transpiled into JavaScript, and then later that Javascript is further minified. So even if we somehow did have a stacktrace of an Elm error, we would still have to make two leaps - from minified to original JavaScript via source map, and then from original JavaScript to Elm via a mapping tool that doesn't exist yet and wouldn't even be supported by services like bugsnag. 😬
Although mapping was an area I was keen on pursuing at the beginning of my project, after many conversations and explorations, it's clear that this would require a heck of a lot of work for only a small benefit. I don't plan on digging any further into this, but I bring it up here to show another place where Elm deviates from the typical tooling of a front-end language.
In conclusion, bugsnag-elm doesn't fully succeed as a bugsnag notifier, in that it can't report all the expected datapoints (because they don't exist in Elm). And certainly it's an odd bird in the Elm world, where production errors are never expected to happen. But I had loads of fun exploring this strange little niche. As it is, this is still a very powerful tool that will let you observe your Elm code's behavior in its production environment.
Writing bugsnag-elm was quite a journey for me! As I was learning Elm for the first time at NoRedInk, I kept noodling on this project. The kinds of questions it brought up really helped me understand the underlying mechanisms behind Elm, in a way that typical feature-building wouldn't have. What a unique opportunity, as a newbie, to ask my bizarre questions directly to the core developers of this amazing language. 🙏 And although I wasn't able to build the perfect solution I imagined, I understand the tradeoffs being made and am happy with the result. More importantly — it works! All of NoRedInk's Elm code (the largest codebase in production) is now using bugsnag-elm to report errors, and so can you! 🎉🐛

By Chuck Griffin Editor, LifeTalk
Philippians 4:6 (NLT): Don't worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done.
Like Scripture, prayer is an extremely broad subject. Again, we are talking about a many-layered discipline, one with more depth to it than we can hope to explore in a lifetime.
Prayer takes time, and that causes us to shy away from a deep commitment to it. And yet, prayer also seems to interact with time in mysterious ways, making other moments more fruitful.
In one of his great sermons, "Degrees of Power Attending the Gospel," C.H. Spurgeon spoke in 1865 of how important the "spirit of prayerfulness" was in his church, Metropolitan Tabernacle in London.
"Let me entreat you never to lose it," he said. Later in the sermon, Spurgeon exhorted his congregation this way: "Let us increase our praying as we increase our doing. I like that of Martin Luther, when he says, 'I have so much business to do today, that I shall not be able to get through it with less than three hours' prayer.' Now most people would say, 'I have so much business to do today, that I must only have three minutes' prayer—I cannot afford the time.' But Luther thought that the more he had to do the more he must pray, or else he could not get through it. That is a blessed kind of logic—may we understand it!"
Like so many spiritual activities, the only way we can understand prayer is to actually pray. If we over-intellectualize the process, seeking to understand everything before we begin, we will never give this work of piety the time it deserves.
Prayer is very much about submitting ourselves to the will of God. Too often, we see prayer as our effort to get God to do what we want, when instead we first need to be sure we are aligned with what God wants. For me, anyway, it has been important to get to a place where I'm allowing the Spirit to enter.
I am far from being an expert on prayer. All I can do is offer what has helped me as a person who has struggled with sustained prayer through the years. I certainly make sure to praise God in prayer and lift up petitions, but I have become more comfortable with prayer as I've combined it with Christian meditation, a deliberate effort to set my shallow desires aside so God can shape me.
I will not go into great detail about this meditative aspect of prayer—your details may differ from mine. I will say that location, posture and breathing are important. The place of prayer must be quiet and feel connected to God. The posture needs to be reverent and submissive, but also comfortable enough to not be distracting. The breathing needs to be slow, deep and deliberate.
If you feel the need to be led through prayer, there are all sorts of guides, ancient and modern, and many of them build in time for meditation or reflection. "A Guide to Prayer for All Who Seek God," by Norman Shawchuck and Rueben P. Job, is one of my favorites. Combining prayer with Scripture, which go together like ice cream and hot fudge, this particular guide keeps me in the flow of the lectionary, used in particular by some preachers as they work their way through the church season.
As you commit to a deeper prayer life, promise me this: Expect something big to happen. You may find yourself shaken into a bold new life—for an example, see Acts 4:23-31.
That's the kind of prayer experience that changes not just us, but the world around us.
Lord, bless us with a deep desire to pray, and bless us continually as we pray. Amen.

Anyone who appreciates the peace and beauty of a winter wonderland will enjoy backpacking or camping in the snow. If one is well prepared, there is nothing more enjoyable than romping around in the snow.
Here are a few tips on getting started.
What Kind Of Winter Accessories To Choose
- Try to invest in a windproof model hat that is made from Gore WindStopper fabric. Keep your head covered to prevent body heat escaping from the top of the head.
- Carry extra mittens and gloves
- Try to get waterproof model gaiters to avoid snow and water getting into the boots.
- Many people forget about sunglasses, or now goggles. But the winter sun can glare off snow so glasses are required for protecting your eyes. You can get different tints for lenses to protect from wind and sun.
Clothing and Boots for Cold Weather
The basic rule when winter camping is to stay warm and dry. Clothing should be waterproof, well insulated and should dry quickly. You require adjusting layers to remain warm:
Your underwear forms the first base layer next to the skin. Try to wear merino wool or synthetic fabrics and avoid cotton. This prevents perspiration. Your clothes will dry quickly when you wear one lightweight layer and cover it with a thicker layer that is heavyweight.
The insulating layer forms the middle layer. This helps to retain the body heat. The ideal clothing when snow camping is shirts, pants and jackets made from micro fleece or expedition-weight fleece. You can also wear a jacket made from goose down.
A breathable layer of windproof or waterproof should constitute the outer layer. The underarm and core vents should be able to expel moisture and heat for best results.
Tip: It is advisable to put a layer of clothing on you when you stop for a break. Your body will not cool too quickly.
Classic hiking boots will not be as effective as special mountaineering boots that will protect you from cold and water. In you intend to enjoy snowboarding or skiing, you will need to have a specific boots conformable to the bindings. Ensure you take all the necessary equipment with you to guarantee safe and joyful winter camping. It is essential to wear two layers of socks made from synthetic fabric or merino wool. Keep the boot fit in mind when determining the thickness of the second layer. Always carry extras.
Planning a Backpacking Trip in winter
It is important to be warmly clothed with extra gear to protect from severe cold. The best way to go about this is to pre-plan carefully.
- It is always advisable to go on these trips with friends who have travelled before and are familiar with the ropes
- Make it a point to research when studying maps. Check out the availability of emergency and rescue services in the area you plan to camp.
- Ask people around you for tips
- Consider if the conditions are in your favor when you look at trail conditions and keep an eye on the weather forecast.
- It is best to check the forecast and avoid avalanche areas. You should have had prior avalanche training if you plan to get on slopes that are more than 20°.
- Make out a trip plan with details of your scheduled dates, number of your vehicle and contact number of other participants in the group
- Conform to the goals and plans of the group
- Pack all items that you think are important
- You should have money on you in case any emergency crops up
- Make sure to carry extra clothing and food to be prepared for anything unexpected.

I have decided I need a pattern for a cami top. They're flattering, perfect for transitional seasons (no more denial, that summer-autumn transition is coming soon…) and great to use up leftover scraps, of which I have MANY. The question is which pattern to go for?
I'm torn between two: the recently released True Bias Ogden Cami OR Simplicity Cynthia Rowley pattern 1366.
I've seen so many super pretty versions of the Ogden Cami on Instagram and the fit always looks perfect. However, I've never tried a PDF pattern before and am a bit worried it could all go wrong if I don't stick it together just right. Also the cutting out the pattern is my least favourite part of the process, so this sort of just seems like even more effort.
The Simplicity Cynthia Rowley 1366 looks almost identical to the Ogden Cami but with a very slightly different fit. For a similar price it also comes with a boxy top pattern and two variations on a pretty impressive skirt. I've used loads of Simplicity patterns and the fit has always been great, but I've never tried a True Bias pattern…
Decisions decisions. Has anyone made either or both and can help me out with any advice?

Gov. Scott vetoes legal marijuana, but summer could bring compromise
MONTPELIER - Gov. Phil Scott rejected a marijuana legalization bill that passed the Vermont Legislature this month, but said he was willing to work with lawmakers on a compromise.
Scott said he would send the bill back to the Legislature with suggestions to strengthen the bill to his liking. His specific concerns include what he considered weak penalties for sale of marijuana to minors and more time for a commission studying a regulated market.
"If the Legislature agrees to make the changes I am seeking, we can move forward with this discussion in a way that ensures the public health and safety of our communities and our children continue to come first," Scott said as he announced his veto Wednesday.

Vt. Legislature becomes first to approve legal marijuana
Marijuana bill gets last minute push with compromise
Scott has often expressed reservations about marijuana legalization, public safety, and children, but did not spell out specific complaints until after the bill passed.
"It was a bit of a surprise that it all came together, to be perfectly honest with you," Scott said. "We did not have an opportunity at that point to weigh in. And it may be a miscalculation on my part. I thought we were going to have the discussion next year."
The bill, S.22, would legalize possession of up to one ounce of marijuana and two mature and four immature marijuana plants in July 2018. There would be no tax on the product, nor any commercial market, but the bill would create a commission to recommend by Nov. 1 how a regulated market might work.
The governor wants to slow down the commission's work, require more details in their report, and add members of his administration, such as the commissioners of public safety, health and taxes.
Scott says the commission should work for at least one year, which would delay any vote on marijuana regulation until 2019.
The governor also wants the legalization bill to include greater penalties for consuming marijuana in the presence of children, using marijuana while driving and providing marijuana to children. He said he is comfortable with legalizing marijuana in July 2018, as proposed, if his other conditions are met.
Lt. Gov. David Zuckerman, a longtime supporter of marijuana legalization, said Scott had ignored voters' wishes and called the veto "very short sighted."
"I amsad to see the Governor disregard the will of most Vermonters and reduce individual liberties in our state," said Zuckerman, a Progressive/Democrat, in a statement.
Scott, a Republican serving his first year in office, previously pledged to veto the state budget and a property tax bill because of a dispute over school employee health insurance.
Lawmakers are expected to return to Montpelier on June 21-22 to consider a veto override or changes to those two bills. The marijuana veto adds a third bill to the mix.
The Senate and House of Representatives may be able to pass a marijuana bill in June that meets the governor's standards.
"I don't think it's a slam dunk but it could be done," said Sen. Dick Sears, D-Bennington, who orchestrated the procedural move that allowed S.22 to pass this year. Sears said he was surprised to see Scott suggest a compromise.
Rep. Don Turner said his 53-member Republican caucus is unlikely to agree to suspend House rules to allow the marijuana bill compromise to pass quickly.
Several Republicans support legalization, Turner said, but "most of our caucus was opposed. I don't see them changing their mind."
Laura Subin, director of the Vermont Coalition to Regulate Marijuana, said her group would continue to rally support for the measure this summer.
The anti-legalization group Smart Approaches to Marijuana thanked Scott for the veto and vowed to "make sure any piece of legislation does not allow Big Marijuana to come to Vermont," SAM President Kevin Sabet said in a statement.

Red Cross issues emergency call for all type blood donors
HUDSON VALLEY — The American Red Cross blood supply has reached emergency levels, with 50,000 fewer donations than expected in June. This shortfall leaves the Red Cross with half the readily available blood products on hand now than this time last year.
The Red Cross is calling on all eligible blood donors to give as soon as possible. All blood types are needed, but especially O positive, O negative, B negative and A negative, in order to meet patient demand this summer.
Approximately every two seconds, a patient in the United States needs a blood transfusion. Blood and platelets are used for many different kinds of treatments. They include accident and burns, heart surgery, organ transplants, complications during childbirth and for patients receiving treatment for cancer or sickle cell disease.
"Blood must be available at a moment's notice when seconds count to help save or sustain a life. We have reached an emergency situation and the blood will not be there without the immediate response of volunteer blood donors," said Donna M. Morrissey, director of communications, American Red Cross Blood Services — Northeast Division.
Call 800-733-2767 or visit redcrossblood.org to find a blood drive and to make appointments.
ELLENVILLE — To help ensure an adequate blood supply for patients this summer, Ellenville Regional Hospital and the American Red Cross will team up for a community blood drive from 9 a.m.-2 p.m. Friday at the hospital, 10 Healthy Way, Ellenville. The drive will take place in a traveling donor center outside the hospital in the parking lot.
All blood types are needed.
Donors are encouraged to schedule an appointment in advance by calling the hospital at 647-6400, ext. 215, or the Red Cross at 800-733-2767.

Dawne Gee, a longtime anchor at Louisville, Ky., NBC affiliate WAVE, has been through a lot over the past few months. Back in October of last year, she had half her kidney removed due to cancer. Then, in February, doctors found a mass in her stomach.
On Saturday, Gee had the mass removed. According to The Courier-Journal, the surgery was a success:
It very much looks like something that is not going to be a big deal," Baptist Health Louisville surgeon Richard Pokorny told Gee's family and friends. "If it is not completely benign, it looks like it will be a low grade tumor and this is all we will have to do and she will be done."
Gee has suffered from a variety of ailments over the years, including benign brain tumors, lupus and rheumatoid arthritis.
In February, someone started a GoFundMe account in Gee's name, without her consent. It was later taken down.
Gee is expected to be off the air for the next few weeks while she recovers from surgery. If you'd like to send Gee your good wishes via social media, you can do so here or here.

Want to elope? Get ready to spend some money!
Now even runaway weddings are turning out to be huge, lavish affairs
There was a time when eloping meant running away and getting married in the clothes you were standing in. Abroad, it used to mean an impromptu wedding in a Las Vegas chapel or a civil ceremony in a local courthouse. Not any more. Now, elopements has changed from being last-minute affairs into extravagant and planned destination weddings – for the world to see!
View this post on Instagram
Wedding planners and owners of wedding consulting companies are seeing a rise in the popularity of lavish elopements. They attribute the changing trend to the importance of social media. With Instagram, for example, you can have a private wedding, yet have it in the limelight. Images and videos allow family members and friends and the general world at large to feel as if they are with you – even if they are not.
Many of these elopements are destination weddings, with companies like Destination Elope specialising in planning them. The call is for dramatic settings like the edge of a cliff or a desert. It's all about intimacy with a wow factor.

Why aren't Parkway signs clear?
A look at why New Jersey is uniquely "Jersey."
Q: Traffic from Parkway exit 145 to 135 was bumper to bumper one afternoon. I passed a sign that says "delays ahead." Duh! I know that. How about saying "accident at Exit 135, right lanes closed." THAT would be helpful. I could maybe get off or at least stay in the left lane. Who types this? Claire L., Toms River
A: Claire, here's the answer we got from the New Jersey Turnpike Authority, which runs the Garden State Parkway: -------.
That means radio silence, zilch, nada, crickets, not a peep. "Why is that?" wrote them and called for more than a week. We even looked at the electronic signs each day for some sort of coded signal from above. But, alas, nothing.
That's what you get for $31 million of your toll money, I suppose. The Turnpike authority spent that much beginning in 2011 to upgrade 53 information signs along the turnpike and parkway. The goal: to give you more information about roadway conditions. Maybe your experience was a fluke, but as a seasoned parkway driver, I don't recall specific information on the signs either. One reason I have heard over the years is that New Jerseyans love to sue, and if you are told to "get off at exit 140," and then get into an accident, you may have a claim against the highway authority for giving you bum advice.

After "dying to go" to the Met Gala "for years," New York City Mayor Eric Adams finally got his wish.
Adams, 61, arrived wearing a statement suit, making a political splash on the red carpet alongside girlfriend Tracey Collins, who wore a white Oscar de la Renta gown with iridescent flourishes.
Adorned with custom art from Laolu, a Nigerian artist who is based in New York City, the mayor's outfit made a plea to "End Gun Violence."
The suit was already hanging in his closet and Laolu turned it into his canvas, drawing the phrase with a pistol in a red circle with a prohibitive slash across it.
"The mayor has a great sense of style. And he came up with the idea" of working with Laolu, Adam's press secretary Fabien Levy told The Post. "He wants to send a message specifically. One of the things that is causing problems in our society is gun violence."
Levy added that the faces on the jacket represent young children who lost their lives to senseless gun violence.
Laolu, who practiced law in his native Nigeria, infuses his art with his Yoruba heritage and aesthetic, and he has worked with other celebrities such as Taraji P. Henson, Lupita Nyongo, Alicia Keys, Swizz Beats and Beyonce.
But the artist and the mayor also kept with the gala's theme of "Gilded Glamour." And so the suit features depictions of other enduring Big Apple innovations that came about during the Gilded Age, including the Brooklyn Bridge and the railways.
Then there are nods to the subways, such as the R and the N train, the same line where accused subway shooter Frank James opened fire inside a crowded train last month, shooting ten and leaving another 19 injured.
Adams' move to make a political statement on the red carpet follows Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who wore a gown last year that read "TAX THE RICH."
His look was also complete with a fresh pedicure, which he debuted on Twitter. His Monday appointment confirmed his appearance on one of celebrity fashion's biggest nights after some speculation.
Known for his keen sense of fashion, Adams has kept up his style while serving as mayor, most notably his custom suits from the high-end Mohan Custom Tailors, which ring in at $2,000 apiece.
And he's no stranger to the fashion-forward life, having attended New York Fashion Week in February — seated next to Anna Wintour, no less. He's also chummy with Naomi Campbell and Jon Batiste, and has been pictured with Cara Delevingne and A$AP Rocky.
Despite the life of seeming glitz, glamor and luxury, lawyer and lobbyist Brad Gerstman, who listed Adams on his Best Dressed Politicians roundup, said the mayor isn't allowed to accept clothes for free or discounted — including for the Met Gala.
Known now as the mayor of nightlife in the Big Apple, the Met Gala won't be his first rodeo — and probably not his last — after appearing at other star-studded events, such as the opening night of "The Music Man" on Broadway earlier this year.

A court reporter is also known as a stenotype reporter or a stenographer. The job of this individual is to note down all the court proceedings word to word so as to prepare official transcripts of the processes. This is done by using shorthand or sometimes voice writing techniques. Such reports are required for keeping legal records and also for correspondence. Indeed, a court reporter plays a crucial role in the judicial proceedings by jotting down the things that happen as it is and hence providing the exact account. There are some types of court reporters who work outside the courtroom too. They work in diverse areas such as while reporting sales meetings or other such events.
Court reporters also work for TV networks or cable stations, sporting events, emergency broadcasts, captioning news and other programming.
Career Objective:
To work as a court reporter with a leading litigation support agency and deliver exceptional services to law firms by recording court verbatim and maintaining written and electronic records.

CLASSROOMS at a school in Coventry were turned into mini constituencies to mirror the general election.
Election fever swept Bablake School in Coundon where students, representing five political parties, are vying for other pupils support.
Votes will be cast today. Each of the independent school's 46 tutor groups have been given a constituency name, and momentum has been gathering as all 845 pupils decide which party to back when they go to the ballot box.
Follow the Coventry Telegraph's live Election 2010 blog featuring breaking results, reaction and quotes live from Coventry and Warwickshire's counts tonight....
It offers youngsters not yet old enough to vote in the general election the chance to take part in a similar political process.
To help them make up their minds, five students have been selected as party leaders – Jack Kelly, aged 18 (Lib Dem), Caitlin Edwards, 17 (Lab), Jonathan Smith, 18 (Cons), Lizzie Stefaniac, 15 (Green), and Jonny Lawrence, 15 (UKIP).
The young leaders have been reading up on their party's manifesto, brushing up on their public speaking skills, creating campaign materials and holding surgeries with other pupils.''
