It is estimated that over 90 percent of enterprises currently use a cloud service, and the market is projected to reach $927 billion by 2027. However, managing cloud infrastructure is complex, and complexity breeds vulnerability. This article takes a look at the security challenges and solutions that go hand-in-hand with cloud adoption.
A June 2021 study provided by OpsCompass, the 2021 State of Cloud Security Posture Management Report, provides a fascinating look into the top security priorities and challenges currently faced by IT professionals. The study indicates that finding ways to be more proactive is top of mind for IT and security teams, and multi- or hybrid-cloud infrastructure is at the heart of their concerns.
"Operations teams are managing increasingly complex cloud infrastructure and are hyper-concerned about misconfigurations and configuration drift resulting in security gaps and potential breaches. Our goal with this report is to assess what teams are experiencing today, understand their concerns, and drive conversations to improve cloud security," said John Grange, CTO and co-founder of OpsCompass.
To get ahead of security breaches, organizations are increasingly looking for real-time monitoring and detection of misconfigurations. Enhancing communications between DevOps, Security, and Compliance teams coupled with increased automation are proving to be the most effective steps businesses can take to reduce the risk of exposing sensitive data.
The OpsCompass survey queried 253 full-time, US-based IT professionals, mostly software developers, and engineers. These respondents deploy, develop, or manage cloud applications or infrastructure – 91 percent of whom are working with multi- or hybrid-cloud solutions. Nearly half of these professionals are concerned about visibility, misconfigurations, configuration drift, and an overall gap in cloud-management capabilities.
Given the number of breaches that are the direct result of misconfiguration and config drift (by far the vast majority), the percentage of professionals concerned with visibility into and control over these vulnerabilities should be much higher. This statistic may indicate a perceived security gap – the difference between the level of security an organization thinks it has and the level of protection it actually has.
OpsCompass asked questions related to the respondent's understanding of Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM). This relatively new sector includes the governance, monitoring, and remediation necessary to ensure all assets in and deployments to the cloud are safe. Although known by various names, 95 percent of the respondents were aware of these solutions and thought them very important. However, less than half are currently using a CSPM solution.
Indicating how important real-time monitoring and automation are; of the nearly 70 percent of respondents who said they have a high degree of confidence in their cloud security, over 70 percent said their confidence is derived from their ability to monitor their cloud in real-time. Over 50 percent said they automate as much as possible.
As businesses rely more on cloud infrastructure, it is critical that real-time monitoring and automation be a part of their security management strategy. There are plenty of threat actors actively looking for vulnerabilities to exploit; we cannot afford to make breaches easy by leaving data exposed due to a misconfiguration or config drift. CSPM can go a long way toward reducing the ever-growing number of data breaches.

AAHA Approves Player Agreement Process for 2020-21 Season
We hope that everyone in our community is staying safe and healthy while spending some quality family time during this unprecedented period in our history. Our Skate Zone facilities continue to be closed in the best interests of the health and safety of our families and staff, but we are remaining optimistic that we will collectively overcome this adversity and all be able to return to the rink in the very near future.
At this time, the AAHA is moving forward with permitting Member Clubs to offer Player Agreements without the benefit of a tryout, to allow for planning of the 2020-21 season. With that notification, we are currently accepting registrations online with no payment required. We have received many registrations already, but if you have not already registered we ask that at your earliest convenience please go to the "Tryouts" tab to "Become a member of Philadelphia Flyers Elite" on our website at https://www.flyersskatezone.com/philadelphia-flyers-elite and register online. This registration is for our planning purposes only and to ensure that our coaching staff is aware of your interest in joining the Flyers family.
Our staff are working diligently to build our teams for next season, as we all look forward to representing the Flyers brand and enjoying another successful season on the ice. Until then, we will continue to monitor local, state, federal and CDC developments and will keep everyone informed as things change regarding the status of our facility opening and hockey returning. In the interim, as we all express our appreciation and gratitude for all those workers who remain on the frontlines of essential services during this pandemic, please stay home, stay safe and be well!

Montreal outfit Valfreya has been at it for more than a decade, putting out folk metal mixed with elements of death and black metal. Building a strong fanbase over the years, guitarist and backing vocalist Daniel Simard talks with Metalhead Money about the bands goals and how they "make it work."
Tell our readers all about your band! Where are you from and when did you get started? What is your music like?
In 2009, vocalist Corinne Cardinal wanted to create a band that mixes the symphonic and orchestral parts of classical music, the festive and authentic parts of folk and Celtic music with the aggressive and energic parts of death / black metal. We're all from Montreal, Canada (and suburbs close to).
What are your goals for your band?
We went to go as far as we can with our music. So, continue releasing albums and ideally, tour the world.
What do you do for a living?
Jay is a drum teacher and Corinne is a singing teacher although she does quite a lot of other things on top of that. Maude is the manager of a music store, Anis works in insurances as well as teaching English courses online, Érik works in retail and I work in IT for a bank.
How do you balance your work and personal life with the band?
I allow some time to "band business" every week and we run some tasks to accomplish using Google Calendar to try and meet the deadlines we have or that we set for ourselves. Of course, from one week to another, the amount of time spent on work is pretty stable for the most part, but the one for personal life and music varies, depending on what needs to be done and how quickly for that specific week.
What do you consider to be the best investment you've made, music-wise?
Time is the BEST investment. Corinne and I have put a lot of time into writing music and managing the band. Time is money and we were not paid at all. All is not about money; music is a passion and it's goes beyond money. We do not have the choice, anyway, because music unfortunately can't provide.
What's the worst or least helpful thing you've ever spent money on as a musician/band?
Well, I used to try to upgrade my equipment little by little (which is not a bad thing in itself). But, at one point, I decided to instead save money and buy the best amp / guitar, etc... So, instead of spending on a $750 guitar, then $900, then $1200, etc... I stopped at $900 then saved-up to get my "top" guitar at like $2,000.00 plus. I actually stopped wasting money by doing that. It's easy to spend lots of money on a lot of gear, but it's not always easy to recognize what is really beneficial/necessary to what is just throwing your money out the window.
Soooooo.... how much was this guitar? :p
What kind of merch sells the best for your band? And what do you purchase most often as a music listener?
Definitely large t-shirts! I mean, our CDs are also doing pretty good, even though they're somehow getting more and more "obsolete" with the music streaming nowadays. But, there are still people out there wanting to open that booklet, look at the art and the lyrics, etc...
If you've been on tour, can you share some tour budgeting tips?
Well, when accepting a tour, you need to make sure you're getting paid enough every night to pay for gas and sleeping arrangements. Usually, we bring some sleeping bags and sleep on a floor somewhere at the promoter's house, to some fan's house, etc... We try to avoid having to pay for motels and hotels as much as we can as it can get expensive pretty quickly. Other than that, if you can bring a cooler and buy food from grocery stores instead of always eating at the restaurant, that's a good way to go as well. You can save quite a bit by doing this.
Which online music or social media platforms are most helpful to your band?
At the moment, that would have to be Facebook, I think. We pretty much share news from there all the time and of course, we also share-it to Instagram at the same time, but it pretty much starts with FB. We recently created an event for the release of our new video clip and invited tons of people and also did some publicity to try to hype it up and FB works well for that, as opposed to other platforms. Of course, it ain't perfect and there are plenty of annoying things as well, but it still works decently for our needs.
What does "making it" mean to you, and what do you think a band needs to make it in 2021?
It means ''Do It Yourself.'' Do not wait for someone else to do things for you. Learn by yourself how to promote your band, how to get better at booking, etc. All the tools are on the internet. Don't be afraid to go out of your comfort zone.

Tour operators predict timing of travel's return
May 19, 2020
Despite sidelined trips and postponed departures, NTA tour operators are still interacting with clients. And last week, in the NTA Traveler Sentiment and Demand survey, operators reported details of what they're hearing and predicting.
"NTA operators are working with their clients to reschedule canceled tours and to discuss new ones, and this survey includes responses from companies of all sizes and travel products," said Catherine Prather, NTA president. "It's important to note that we're in a rapidly evolving environment where new information can cause an abrupt change in travel and in traveler sentiment, so NTA and our members are continually reassessing the situation."
More than half (55%) of the tour operators said they communicated in April with customers who were asking about 2020 or 2021 tours, but fewer than half (39%) actually booked new business.
Based on their conversations with customers, more than half of the operators believe travel won't resume in substantial numbers until 2021, with 26% saying it will be in the first quarter of next year, and 33% looking to the second quarter. Nearly one in five (19%) believe travel will rebound later this year. One respondent doesn't see significant travel returning until the spring of 2022.
Asked for their opinion about the type and timing of travel that people will be likely to take, three-fourths of tour operators believe that travel within a six-hour drive will be embraced before the end of the year, with travel by car returning a few months before short-haul trips on motorcoaches.
Operators are split about the public's willingness to spend more time on a motorcoach. The same number—30%—predict a return to long-haul coach travel in six months as foresee a return in 12 months. The remaining predictions ranged from a few months to beyond 18 months. Operators also see a slower return to air travel: Most (78%) predict six to 12 months for a return to plane trips of less than six hours, with the resumption of long-haul travel coming at the end of that time frame.
Travel by rail is seen by operators as resuming in six to 12 months, but a return to cruising could take longer: 40% don't see travelers returning to large-ship cruises for a year and a half or later, with even fewer (29%) holding those projections for river cruising.
"Like every key segment of packaged travel industry—hotels, restaurants, transportation—tour operators have specific concerns related to traveler safety," Prather said. "For that reason, we created the NTA Tour Operator COVID Task Force, which is developing guidelines for resuming tours. Also, as the news spreads as to what hotels, restaurants, airlines, and cruise lines are doing related to health and safety, traveler confidence will grow accordingly."
In regard to activities that are components of many tours, large percentages of operators predict that travelers will, in the next three months, be willing to dine in restaurants (62%) or visit a shopping venue or a museum (both about 58%). Over half predict consumer comfort with hotel stays and theater performances in three to six months, with travelers eyeing a return to sporting events, concerts, theme parks, and festivals in six to nine months.
Tour operators are not united in their view of when consumers will want to travel with a group again. A quarter of them see it coming in six months, with a like number pegging the date at nine months, and another 25% forecast that comfort with group travel won't resume for a year or more.
Not surprisingly, operators believe small-group travel will be the first to bounce back, with 65% seeing its return in three to six months. Only slightly fewer (60%) see customized packaged travel returning in the same time frame, with scheduled departures, sports travel, student groups, and senior groups resuming, for the most part, in November and later.
Most tour operators (74%) expect that travelers will practice social distancing within the group well into 2021, with more than a quarter predicting it will last for the foreseeable future. To reduce the transmission—and the fear—of coronavirus during future tours, operators say they will provide hand sanitizer (86%), encourage hand-washing (86%), provide disinfectant wipes (80%), space travelers apart from each other (71%), and deep- clean the van or bus every night (68%). Most (65%) said they will rely on destination and supplier partners to facilitate precautions, and a significant number said they will require mask use and take passengers' temperatures.
Out of a number of possible steps taken by government agencies to protect travelers, tour operators believe the most important are strong sanitation protocols and widespread testing, followed by mandatory social distancing measures and required temperature checks. The survey was conducted between May 8 and 15 and reflects the responses of NTA-member tour operators. For more information about the association, visit NTAonline.com.

This is the second time that I have been able to interview Ryan Ellis over the past twelve months. This 26 year old up-and-coming young race car driver is driven to get into the premiere division of NASCAR, the Sprint Cup Series.
Some of Ryan's past racing accomplishments are quite impressive. Ryan was the 2005 Virginia State Pro Legends Champion. In 2009 Ellis was Teen Mazda West Coast Champion and in 2011 he was crowned the Grand-Am ST Rookie of The Year.
Now Ellis has his sights set on progressing up through the NASCAR ranks, ultimately to establish himself as a Sprint Cup race car driver. However, Ellis enters this chapter of his life without deep pockets or huge corporate sponsorships. He is doing it the old fashion way of show casing his talent and "beating the bushes" trying to network, establishing partners and closing the deals to gather up requisite sponsorship to make his dream come true.
I was able to connect with Ellis last week and herein lies our conversation:
WorkingOnMyRedneck: You were able to jump into the No. 33 Joe Falk Chevy for your Sprint Cup debut at Phoenix last November. Can you explain how you were able to put that deal together?
Ryan Ellis: It always comes down to sponsorship whether drivers like to admit it or not. A lot of these guys are bringing their own money nowadays, so the only way to fight against them is to bring sponsorship. I send a lot of sponsorship proposal every day, and ScienceLogic just happened to work out. I had wanted to make my Sprint Cup debut and they were pretty set on Sprint Cup as well. I made a few phone calls after solidifying our deal and we got it all put down on paper!
WOMR: You have driven on several occasions Jim Rossenblum's No. 28 FDNY truck, as you did in the year's Daytona 500. What is your relationship with Rossenblum and his amazing group of FDNY volunteers?
RE: Jim was one of the first guys to really give me a shot in NASCAR. I really love driving for them and the guys that help him out just have fun. It's a nice weekend to take a step back and really enjoy where you are in this sport. Sometimes it's easy to get caught up in the chaos and business of NASCAR, but these guys have brought a very short-track approach and family-like atmosphere to the big leagues of NASCAR. That's why it's so cool to race for them at tracks like Talladega and Daytona. A small group of volunteers are able to compete against teams like KBM (Kyle Busch Motorsports) and BKR (Brad Keselowski Racing). No matter what, they have fun. Without Jim, I wouldn't have the opportunities I have today, so not only is he a family friend, but he's done a great bit for my career.
WOMR: Ryan do you have PR representation that you rely on to put your racing packages and deals together? If you do not have PR reps then do you coordinate and cultivate your own sponsors and put these rides together? How did you get hooked up with ScienceLogic?
RE: I've had management groups in the past that have helped me out like P1 Groupe. They did a lot for me helping me get from Grand-Am to NASCAR, but as my roots in NASCAR grew, I began to know just about everyone myself. I've found it's pretty hard to keep track of things and remember to tell another person, and I don't have the money to pay someone to do work for me, so it's just easier for me to do it myself. I like being involved in every aspect of this sport and I think it helps me create relationships with sponsors that other drivers cannot. I honestly feel like I'm friends with my team owners and sponsors and I think a lot of drivers who have strict management representation lack that. Because I'm forced to make these phone calls myself, I think team owners have a bit more respect for the grind that I put in and are more likely to help me out. Every ride comes about after a million text messages, email threads and what not. It's hard to really know if you're driving week to week especially when you're not bringing money. Often, I wait and see if there aren't funded drivers that week, and if there are professional opportunities available, the phone might ring. I'm very lucky to be in the position I'm in and have the trust of many team owners, so I try and not lose that. I'm brought in to be a professional for small teams and try and gain as many points and positions while keeping the car in one piece. The second I don't do that, I might not be in the same position I'm in today.
The ScienceLogic deal was a culmination of a lot of sponsorship proposals and networking. It came down to an introduction from a fraternity brother of mine from the Kappa Sigma Fraternity. I really think that most successful sponsorship leads come from a networking introduction rather than a cold call, so I'm constantly working on building my network. Kappa Sigma was a huge part of this and I couldn't be here without them. Once we got ScienceLogic on board, we showed them the value that most people don't know exists in sponsorship – the VIP passes, hospitality, at-track networking, and of course, the signage on the racecar. They've loved it, and I'm very lucky to have them on board.
WOMR: What are your plans for the remainder of the 2016 season? What rides do you have firm commitments?
RE: It's tough to say what will happen week to week, but I know I'm racing at Indianapolis and Texas with BK Racing in the No. 93 ScienceLogic Toyota. Outside of that, I'm doing all I can to find road course rides the next couple months.
WOMR: What are your goals for the remaining year?
RE: I want to make Indianapolis in Cup and find rides for at least two of the road courses between trucks and XFINITY. Outside of that, I'm not sure. I just want to get the most out of the equipment I'm in every week. I want to race every week.
WOMR: What would constitute a successful 2016 season?
RE: I think a successful season is just a step forward from the year before. So in my mind, I've already had a more successful year than I could've imagined. I've gotten my first top-15 in XFINITY, I'm going to hopefully be making three Sprint Cup series starts this year, and I'm working on more. I've raced more XFINITY full races this year than I did all of last year and we aren't even halfway through. I've been very blessed to have this many opportunities this year and although I obviously have much higher aspirations for my future, I'm very happy to be where I'm at this year. Right now I'm focused on making Indianapolis, because that would be one of the coolest things I've ever done in my life and it's going to be a huge weekend for ScienceLogic.
WOMR: What can we expect to see you driving in the remaining 2016 season?
RE: Hopefully part time in Cup in the No. 93 ScienceLogic Toyota, mostly-full time in XFINITY in various rides, and maybe a few truck series races in there. I know I'll be attempting to make Pocono in the FDNY Racing Truck so I hope we are able to make it there as well.
WOMR: Do you have some possibilities in the works for 2017?
RE: Nothing yet! I just want to be full time in something. If I can work a few Cup Series starts in there, I'd be happy, but ultimately I just want to keep working forward and finding better opportunities in better equipment each and every day. I hope that I'm able to do that with ScienceLogic in 2017.
WOMR: Can you explain what caused your bout with carbon monoxide at Daytona? What were your symptoms during or near the end of the race? What did the infield care center do for you initially? What has the days following the Daytona race been like? Lastly, what have you been doing to get you through the few days since Daytona?
RE: I knew that the car was really hot at Daytona, but sometimes, especially in July at Daytona, it's just hot. After I lost the right rear tire, I could tel that it was getting a lot hotter in the cockpit, and not only that, but there was a lot of hot air flowing through the cockpit. My water bottle holder broke and turned over, so I didn't get any water after lap 20 or so. I knew I was dehydrated and hot, but there was nothing that I could do in the cockpit to change that. I didn't know there was carbon monoxide in the cockpit until about 10 or 20 laps to go when I started getting dizzy, my limbs were numb, and my veins starting hurting. When I got out of the car, I couldn't move my hands very much and I knew that I was too dizzy to stand.
It turns out that when I lost the right rear tire I lost much of the crush paneling around that tire so that the exhaust was getting pulled into the car. Obviously, that coupled with the heat and dehydration didn't mix well.
When I got to the infield car center, they offered me an IV and they monitored my vital signs. I was in there about 45 minutes before my numbers came down to the point where I could get out of there. I drank a ton of Gatorade and water and just tried to get my head back together. Obviously, I was happy with the race finish, but I really wasn't thinking about it at that point.
Since Daytona I have been focusing on my normal workouts like boxing, hockey, and weightlifting. All the while I am still working on sponsorship proposals in my free time and visiting the race shops preparing for the next race. I feel pretty normal now, I just have a pretty lingering headache.
As you can see from this insight, Ryan Ellis is a very driven and determined young man. He does not have a PR firm doing all the "dirty work". That is a cost that he does not have the luxury to absorb at this juncture of his career. Instead, Ellis has rolled up his sleeves and taken "the bull by the horns", taking on those tasks himself!
As you can see there is more to making it in NASCAR than just pure talent! To make it in this business it takes a combination of talent and the right corporate sponsors, as well as a well positioned race team for success.

Today was the first time that Aly has done a full day away from home on a course. He's doing 4 days of drama in town. It felt like a first day of school. The rucksack and lunch bag packing were very fun. Novelty value for us all, I guess!
Hello and welcome to our blog. We are a family of 4 and have been home educating since our eldest son would have started school in 2012. Dh and I share the H.E duties between us. We're going to try blogging partly to encourage us to reflect on what we're doing and partly to share what we're up to with anybody who may be interested. As a family we are all really enjoying home ed. so if we help in any way to support others or to help spread the word then that would be wonderful.

... especially a crime writer.
You never know what you might find. This post originated with a reminder I'd left in the middle of some harmless notes on something to do with World War 2 for the day job. What else I was reading at the time I have no idea - evidence suggests it was a thriller of some kind - but right there in the middle of the page, carefully printed, so I could actually decipher it, was 'tactical pen' and 'survival bracelet.'
So of course, once I'd found it, I really had to Google. The results kept me innocently occupied for at least half an hour. I had no idea that this sort of stuff existed. The tactical pen is, well, a pen, but made of metal and designed so it can be used as a weapon. Now I have to admit that I was tempted by the Smith and Wesson version (other tactical pens are available) simply to be able to say that I owned a Smith and Wesson - and you can apparently get it in pink - but weaponry is really not my thing.
The survival bracelets - and there seem to be multiple versions available - are bracelets constructed of parachute cord with added extras - fishing hooks, a compass, lights, whistle, kit for water purification, medical supplies - my mind began to boggle at the possible weight of the thing - hey I'm female, I have a handbag - I know how much 'stuff 'weighs - but it was when it got to the ones that had duct tape and handcuff keys that my mind really began to boggle. Some of the pens had handcuff keys too. Now Drew, the hero of What Happens at Christmas has friends who carry handcuff keys as a matter of course, but I was confused as to why you might want them in the 'real' world. And the duct tape seemed to be getting a little dark. I have used it for emergency repairs on the shower hose, but I've never felt the need to carry it about with me.
Who knew about all this kit? It's certainly made my browser history look somewhat threatening, but it already has things in it like 'How long does it take to die of dehydration?' (that was What Happens at Christmas, too) so perhaps not so much.
Of course my writer's lizard brain is storing all this away for future use, but in the everyday world, I don't see it as a part of my life. But it's there on my browser history, should anyone be looking.
But I told you that you shouldn't. It's research, not real life.

- 14 What makes a good jam?
How do you thicken blueberry jam?
Blueberries are high in natural pectin, which means you don't need to add any. What you do need to add is lemon juice. When you heat the blueberries and sugar together, natural pectin is released. The lemon juice then bonds with the pectin, creating a gel and thickening your jam.
How do you turn jam into jelly?
To make jelly, you cook crushed fruit with water until it's soft and starting to lose its color, strain out the solids, and simmer the juice, adding sugar. Then you boil until the liquid reaches 220° to 222°F, or until it thickens enough to fall in a sheet off the side of a spoon, and pour into sterilized jars.
Which is easier to make jam or jelly?
Jam and preserves are easier and more economical to make than jelly, since they are made of entire fruits instead of just the juice, and can be good either thick or slightly runny.
Why do you add lemon juice to jam?
When you prep a big batch of jam, you begin by cutting the fruit and heating it with some sugar. The lemon juice lowers the pH of the jam mixture, which also neutralizes those negative charges on the strands of pectin, so they can now assemble into a network that will "set" your jam.
Will my jam thicken as it cools?
See, the truth is that the pectin web doesn't really solidify until everything cools down. That means it's tricky to tell whether you've achieved the gel point while the action is still hot and heavy. Enter the spoon: Before you start your jam, set a plate with a few metal spoons in the freezer.
How do you fix thick jam?
Stiff jams or jellies can be thinned with water or fruit juice. They may or may not form a gel again once they are re-heated, as over-cooking of pectin can reduce or destroy its ability to form the gel structure.
Can I use less sugar when making jelly?
The answer is that you can always safely reduce the amount of sugar in a recipe, because sugar doesn't make things safe. The only thing that makes a jam, jelly or other sweet preserve safe for canning in a boiling water bath canner is the acid content, because that's what prevents any potential botulism growth.
Why is my homemade jam so thick?
Fruits that are high in pectin such as apple, citrus fruits and pear will produce thick jams. This is to give the jam a better, less firm, consistency. It's too late to add more sugar if the jam has already set and cooled. In this case it can be thinned out by mixing in a little sugar syrup.
How do you make blueberry jelly from scratch?
- Place blueberries in a Dutch oven and crush slightly. Add water; bring to a boil.
- Pour juice back into Dutch oven; gradually stir in sugar until it dissolves.
- Remove from heat; skim off foam.
- Place jars into canner with simmering water, ensuring that they are completely covered with water.
Can I make jam from frozen blueberries?
Can you use frozen blueberries to make jam? Yes, of course, you can use frozen blueberries. If you are using frozen berries, let the blueberries macerate in sugar and lemon juice for a few hours before cooking. This softens the blueberry skin considerably.
How do you make blueberry spread from scratch?
- In a heavy saucepan over medium-high heat, combine blueberries, 1/2 cup water and lemon juice. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer gently for about 8 minutes, stirring frequently.
- Meanwhile, soak gelatin in 1/4 cup cold water.
- Remove blueberries from heat and stir in gelatin and sugar.
What is the best jam?
- Polaner All Fruit Non-GMO Spreadable Fruit, Assorted Flavors (Pack of 3)
- Anarchy In A Jar Strawberry Balsamic Jam, 4oz (Pack of 2)
- Bonne Maman Orange Marmalade, 1oz (Pack of 12)
- Sqirl Moro Blood Orange & Vanilla Bean Marmalade.
- Briermere Farms Seedless Raspberry Jam, 12oz.
- Chiaverini Strawberry Jam, 14oz.
Why is jam bad for you?
That said, even though jams and jellies may provide some benefits, they're high sugar products, and consuming too much sugar may lead to weight gain, cavities, heart disease, and type 2 diabetes ( 20 ).
What makes a good jam?
Use fresh, dry, slightly under-ripe fruit. Pectin, naturally found in fruit is vital to make your jam set. With low-pectin fruits like strawberries, help them along by either mixing with pectin-rich fruit like gooseberries or by using jam sugar (with added pectin and citric acid).

Dermatologist Explains How To Tackle Your 'Maskne'
By now face masks are as much a part of our "can't leave home without" equipment as purses, wallets, or car keys. Whether mandated or not, the main reason to wear them is — we can't repeat this too often — they protect other people from your germs. Make all the poor decisions you want, as long as you're the only one affected. After all, nobody suffers but you if you scarf down an entire pint of ice cream (and your good friends Ben & Jerry will thank you all the way to the bank), but when it comes to a worldwide pandemic, everyone shares germs, unless we keep on wearing masks.
Sure, there are downsides to masks, such as making your face sweat and fogging up your glasses, but these are a small price to pay for keeping everyone healthy. There's one side effect of mask-wearing, though, that's just the worst: the dreaded "maskne." Yuck. We'd do anything to avoid it, short of going maskless, since... you know. But how? Sure, TikTok's full of tips and tricks, but DIY acne treatments tend to be pretty dubious, and some, such as the one for curing acne with aspirin, are more like "don't-be-us."
If you want skincare tips that will be both safe and effective, who you gonna call? A medical professional like Dr. Susan Massick, a dermatologist at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, who shared with us these maskne-beating tips.
How to avoid getting maskne
Dr. Massick says that the best way to deal with maskne is, of course, not to get it in the first place, and says to start out each day with just the simplest of skin care routines. She recommends using a light moisturizer with sunscreen but advises skipping the makeup. Well, this last statement she clarifies a bit further, saying "mascara, eyeliners, and eye shadows are fine to use," but insisting you "avoid heavy moisturizing creams and foundations, which will lead to clogged pores, and lipstick, which will just rub off onto the masks."
She also says to keep your hands off your face, and especially away from your nose and mouth, pointing out that "people touch their faces constantly without even realizing it." Her specific advice related to mask-wearing involves wearing a clean one every day and having a backup on hand at all times in case the one you're wearing gets too dirty. She also suggests washing your face as soon as you get home and de-mask as well as taking periodic mask-breaks throughout the day as long as you are alone and it's safe to do so.
What to do if you've already got maskne
If it's too late for prevention and your face is breaking out like you're 16 years old and it's the night before your junior prom, Dr. Massick can help with this, too. She says if your skin is feeling oily, you should use a medicated cleanser with salicylic acid, sulphur, or sodium sulfacetamide, or maybe benzoyl peroxide if your skin is really greasy. She also suggests using leave-on gels meant to decrease oil production (their active ingredients are likely to be differin or benzoyl peroxide), but says, "Beware because these products can cause dryness." She also says that toner is only necessary if your skin has a significant pH imbalance, so in most cases, it's really not all that essential.
If your breakouts and/or oily skin seems to be worsening, Massick says you can add in a salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide wash at night or, should breakouts become severe, apply benzoyl peroxide cream to your zittiest bits. If none of these methods seems to be working, though, she says you may need to book an appointment with a board-certified dermatologist to see about prescription-strength topical meds. She even warns that there's a slight chance you could develop perioral dermatitis due to mask-wearing, in which case you'd need oral antibiotics.
The types of masks most likely to cause maskne
If you're wondering whether certain types of masks are more likely to cause maskne, it seems that this is, in fact, the case. While masks need to be made from fabric dense enough to filter germs, Massick says that unfortunately, "The consequence of thicker/denser fabrics, is that when you breathe, moisture and humidity get trapped under the mask." This leads to increased sweat and oil production, which in turn leads to skin breakouts. She does say certain types of mask materials can feel more irritating to the skin, and advises choosing "masks made with soft, non-abrasive material, with a tight-weave that is breathable, and with multiple layers." She adds that natural fibers like cotton will usually be a better option than synthetics.
While you probably can't "try before you buy" when it comes to masks, you can and should start by just buying a single mask when experimenting with a different brand or style so you can judge how it feels on your face before committing to purchasing more of the same. Massick says when choosing a mask, you should look for one where the material doesn't feel rough or abrasive or cause your face to itch when you wear it. After all, a mask that's uncomfortable is not only going to be more likely to trigger skin problems such as maskne, but will also be a mask you'll be less likely to wear, and that isn't safe for anyone.

Date of Defense
Human vigilance is a cognitive function that requires sustained attention toward change in the environment. Human vigilance detection is a widely investigated topic which can be accomplished by various approaches. Most studies have focused on stationary vigilance detection due to the high effect of interference such as motion artifacts which are prominent in common movements such as walking. Functional Near-Infrared Spectroscopy is a preferred modality in vigilance detection due to the safe nature, the low cost and ease of implementation. fNIRS is not immune to motion artifact interference, and therefore human vigilance detection performance would be severely degraded when studied during locomotion. Properly treating and removing walking-induced motion artifacts from the contaminated signals is crucial to ensure accurate vigilance detection. This study compared the vigilance level detection during both stationary and walking states and confirmed that the performance of vigilance level detection during walking is significantly deteriorated (with a p

The following work was commissioned by researchers at the University of New South Wales as part of a creative dissemination strategy for sharing findings from the NHMRC Qualitative Study: Identifying factors that improve the health of prisoners who inject drugs. It draws on excerpted transcripts from multiple interviews with prisoners with a history of drug use about their experiences following release.
The interviews were conducted by the investigator team who participated in a stringent ethical consultation process at all stages.
All participants gave consent for their interviews to be drawn on as part of a wider research dissemination strategy, and all transcripts have been de-identified. This work was reviewed and approved by members of a community advisory group, who guided the dissemination process.

You have to make so many decisions and you don't know how to make them. You think there could've been someone to say, "Look, before you go, here's some numbers to help you sort the basics."
Coming out of prison, you have one appointment after another, and it gets to you, you know? For people to change, to not go the same way they used to, they need
accommodation and support and money while they get on their feet.
When he wouldn't leave, I slept rough. There are fights at the housing refuge. It's loud and people snore and kick you and walk over you while you try to sleep. And I avoid rooming houses because of the drama and drugs
I can always say no, but when you're worn out …
I can always say no, but when it's in front you …
it's hard.
Sometimes I feel like a failure. Sometimes I wanted to go back to be honest, yeah. I did.
I use ice for reasons, you know, reasons. And when I got out, them reasons were all still there.
You feel like shit because your past is just drugs, crime, jail, that cycle. No positives, nothing that makes your self-esteem go up, you know? And sometimes services don't understand how much there is to manage, how much of a challenge it is to stay clean and turn your life around.
I have this CCO worker and
every appointment I don't want to go, but
I suck it up
I don't want to go back to jail.
I have palpitations and feel sick cause I know I'm going to get a rundown of how crap my life is, and I
already know that. It's draining to be honest, being judged. Like people set out to be drug addicts. Like I'm a loser for not having it all together. One slip and you're stamped for life.
I started seeing a drug and alcohol counsellor early on, but that didn't work out because my partner wouldn't let leave the house (cries). Sorry.
I need to find someone to unload on. Doesn't matter who it is. Anyone really. They don't even have to understand, just someone to listen. That's all. It's just knowing someone is there.
Anyway, I got away and now I'm living day by day and I'm
staying away from the friends I used to hang out with. Trying to be more confident. I want to set goals, get a good routine going, look for work, keep busy, and stay off the drugs so I can get my kid back.
I know I need help, but I don't know where to turn. I mean, they try to help, but there's a different service for everything, a different person to explain myself to, and you have to jump through hoops for every single one. I wish there was one place, one person that could help with it all.
It's hard to stop beating myself up, but I'm doing my best and trying not to worry about the past.
I'm trying to look forward, but it's not easy when you feel like you could sleep for a week.
I'm trying to have hope,
but it's tough to turn things around because I'm tired,

Profiling The Hip-Hop Shakespeare Company: Rap Meets Bard
The Hip-Hop Shakespeare Company ('THSC') is a music theatre production company founded by MOBO award-winning hip hop artist, writer, poet and educator, Akala, with the support of one of the most respected Shakespearean actors alive today, Sir Ian McKellen. The company is aimed at exploring social, cultural and linguistic parallels between the works of William Shakespeare and that of modern day rappers, through its delivery of education programmes, live events and music theatre productions. We find out more.
Through education workshops for young people, Akala bridges the themes and prose of Shakespeare with hip hop music. The Hip-Hop Shakespeare Company also showcases work of up-and-coming young talent in interactive live music events and theatre productions, where they have the opportunity to collaborate on stage with established artists and actors. The company aims to help young people build self-confidence and realise their creative and artistic potential as well as giving them a positive experience of Shakespeare, music, literature and the arts. By showing young people the similarities between the language, rhythm and themes of modern hip hop artists, such as Jay-Z, and the Bard himself, literature and the arts become more accessible and enjoyable.
Since launching the company 7 years ago, THSC has sparked worldwide media interest, with its clients including BBC, MasterCard, London 2012, First Direct Bank, The Barbican, The Roundhouse, The Southbank Centre and The Royal Shakespeare exhibit. In 2009, THSC received a London 2012 Olympic 'Inspire Mark', during the first 'Hip Hop Shakespeare Live' show in the Cultural Olympiad's Open Weekend, drawing in crowds from all cultural backgrounds, representing Britain today.
In 2010, The Hip-hop Shakespeare Company established its Artist Associate and Peer Leader programme, in order to amplify the legacy of their work with incredibly talented youth. The young talent, found via the education programme, joins THSC's artistic talent pool and receives training and mentoring. THSC's Artist Associates boast a range of distinguished artists, with previous collaborators including BRIT award-winning musician Ed Sheeran, MOBO award nominated actor and musician Ashley 'Bashy' Thomas, Mercury Music Prize recipient Ms. Dynamite. The Artist Associates mentor and perform alongside Peer Leaders at THSC productions and across the world. THSC Peer Leaders include London based poet/rappers Lori-analytical, Malachi and Melody, Bristol based poet/rapper Toby T, and singer/guitarist Simeon Dallas.
The work of The Hip-hop Shakespeare Company has proved popular amongst audiences of all ages, having toured the UK and Europe numerous times, as well as parts of South East Asia, India, Africa, Australia and New Zealand. In addition to this, THSC performed musical responses and reinterpretations of Shakespeare's legendary sonnets, drawing in crowds of all ages in their 'Hip Hop Shakespeare: All the World's A Stage' at The Southbank Centre, last summer.
As label owner and social entrepreneur, THSC's founder, Akala, is more recently known for his thought-provoking lectures, seminars, journalism, TV presenting and script-writing talents and is considered one of the most vital talents in the UK. Since 2008, Akala has been touring across the UK, promoting the 'Hip-Hop Shakespeare' lyric-writing and performance workshops. He has also toured with BBC Blast and directed a group of teenagers in their performance of a special hip-hop re-working of Othello, outside the national theatre on the South Bank, as part of the Thames festival.
Akala's unique blend of rap, rock and electro-punk along with his powerful lyrical storytelling, has encapsulated audiences across the globe. Throughout his career, Akala retrieves hip-hop from the corporate world, where album sales trump the importance of communicating social empowerment, and aims to take it back to its roots of conveying political and social messages. As an outlier to many contemporary rappers, Akala believes in using hip hop music as a force for education, raising awareness of political issues, empowering youth and encouraging social change, which is evident through both his musical work and the work of his company, THSC.
In his workshops, Akala uses hip-hop to engage young people with subjects such as the African culture and history, human rights, racism and history – including the history of hip hop and the legacy of slavery. The rapper previously worked with the British Council promoting British arts across Africa, Vietnam, New Zealand and Australia.
This Refugee Week, the multi-talented musician will be headlining a unique show, featuring supporting artists from the UK refugee and asylum seeker community and poetry by host Kayo Chingonyi, as part of the arts festival Celebrating Sanctuary London. The dynamic MC uses his music to engage audiences with the continuing struggle for equality. Through his socio-political explorations, he challenges the negative attitude towards immigrants, refugees and asylum seekers, raising themes of everyday racism affecting those who have fled persecution and arrived here in pursuit of safe haven.
At the centre of this event is a celebration of the intellectual history of hip-hop and black revolutionary movements. The band's instrumental arrangements enhance these multifarious explorations with styles including jazz, rock, funk, and solid beats.
Celebrating Sanctuary London is organised by Counterpoints Arts, an organisation aiming to support, produce and promote the arts and educate people about migrants and refugees, ensuring their cultural and artistic contributions are recognised and welcomed within British society. Akala's readiness to approach complex social and political questions, within his narratives, and his exposure of misinformed tabloid rhetoric targeting immigrants and refugees, makes him the perfect headline artist of Celebrating Sanctuary London 2015.
Akala is proof of contemporary musicians and music affecting social change and represents the positive impact of educating and empowering an otherwise marginalised group in society today- the youth. Counterpoints Arts will present musicians from the UK Asylum Seeker/Refugee community, to join Akala on the bill-acts to be announced soon.
Akala's new album Knowledge is Power II is out now.

Geert and I met in 1999 when I started as a sommelier at the two-Michelin-starred Molentje restaurant in Zeebrugge, where he was the second chef. After one week we went for a drink after work and we just clicked. We had the same vision, philosophy and drive in our job, but not only that – we also became very close friends and we still are.
Because we got on so well we decided to stay working together and at a certain moment someone asked us to run his wine bistro. That place was already called Hertog Jan – we didn't choose the name – and we moved there; Geert as the chef and I was responsible for front of house. Little by little we changed the bistro into a restaurant and after three years we wanted to do our own thing.
One of the ideas was to start a new restaurant, maybe in Bruges, but our boss suggested we could take over his restaurant instead, so we decided to do that. We had worked hard there for three years and we had started to be known, we had some articles in magazines and it was working well.
At that time it was quite simple. There was a kitchen and a dining room, the customers knew Geert in the kitchen, me out front. Taking over the restaurant was a good decision; of course we had to pay our former boss for the restaurant but otherwise you have to start with buying or hiring a building and design the kitchen, so there are a lot of things to do and you have a lot of more costs when you start like that.
We took over the place on 1 July 2005 and in November we received the first Michelin star. We were always very driven. Geert was busy in the kitchen, me in the service – we tried to do the best we could. After four years we received a second star.
When we became friends, when we went for that drink, we were dreaming like little boys. And our dream was always to receive three stars. We never said that in public, but it was our drive and ambition.
At that time we were hiring the premises and we thought it would be good to invest in a building, but we also wanted to add something extra to the experience of eating and drinking, so we looked for a new location. We wanted a unique place and we found the old farm where we are now.
A certain tranquillity
We also have a lot of land here where we can grow our own vegetables so it was nice to see the whole story was starting to click. You need a certain time to find your identity and to have your own style. At Hertog Jan we are always thinking about how we can do better, but we are at a point where we can say with confidence about things, "yes, that is something we can do" or we say, "no, that is not for Hertog Jan". That gives a relaxed feeling it may also be because we got a bit older and wiser, it gives a certain tranquillity.
I wasn't always front of house. I went to hotel school in Belgium and you always have both cooking and serving. During school I loved the cooking more than the serving – in school you always have to clean things during service and it was very boring. But serving is so much more than that and I discovered this through a weekend job at a one-star restaurant in Ostend. I asked for a job in the kitchen but they only had a place in the service. So I took that – I thought it is important to know about both sides.
I stayed there for my entire school time and I could grow and discovered the nice thing about service, the contact with the guests, making up the dining room, dealing with problems. That was the moment I decided service might be something that suits me better than the kitchen and then I specialised more in the service side. I followed an extra year with special education for sommeliers, then afterwards I started working as a sommelier and I followed a few extra courses on wine. So in the beginning of my career I was really focused on being a sommelier. I won some prizes, I was sommelier of Belgium in 2004 and in 2011 the restaurant customers in Belgium voted me as sommelier of the year.
In 2005 we had just one cook and one server, but we went from zero stars to three stars in six years, so that is quite fast and sometimes it was very hard to manage all those things because you need more staff and you have to manage it.
From the start Geert and I were very compatible. I am good at organising and he is very creative. Sometimes he comes up with ideas and I give them shape because I am better at organising. It is a good collaboration; we understand each other very well. I know who he is he knows who I am, we don't have secrets, we are very open. People often ask us 'how can you do it" because we don't have investors, we paid for it all ourselves, we don't have rich parents so we worked very hard and we know how hard it was to reach this point and we know we can have a bad day and we are here for each other.
I am the godfather of his oldest daughter, sometimes we go on holiday together as families. It is almost like I am a brother or a part of the family, it feels very good.
It was very natural when we first met, maybe it sounds a bit strange but it was like we fell in love – we had a connection and it feels so good and without words, we don't have to explain, it just works well. We respect each other. People don't believe it but in all these years we have not had a fight. Sometimes you have a discussion but we will talk about it.
Geert will always say "I can run the restaurant with you but not with my wife". That is nice, it gives a comfortable feeling.

Five brutal years of conflict in Yemen
Lisa Grande, the UN's Humanitarian Coordinator for Yemen, recently warned that 13 million people in Yemen are facing starvation. Yemen is on the brink of 'world's worst famine in 100 years', with millions of victims, if airstrikes by the Saudi-led coalition are not halted.
Back in the UK, influential Conservative politician, Andrew Mitchell MP, said "there is deep concern that an almighty catastrophe of biblical proportions is unfolding in Yemen before our eyes, and a considerable fear that Britain is dangerously complicit in it."
Since Saudi Arabia intervened in Yemen in March 2015, the UK has licensed over £5bn-worth of lethal weaponry including warplanes, bombs and missiles to Saudi forces which are being dropped from the sky by UK-trained pilots. Saudi ground forces are trained by the British Army. The UN has warned of a "catastrophe" for the people of Yemen as a result of the recent air, land and sea blockade by the Saudis, which is putting millions at risk.
Airstrikes have targeted civilian infrastructure, including hospitals, farms, schools, water works, markets and the main northern port of Hodeida. They complement a Saudi-led naval and air blockade of rebel-controlled areas that has caused shortages of many essential items, including food, fuel and medical supplies. The UN has identified the Saudi-led coalition as responsible for the majority of civilian deaths and injuries during the conflict. In August 2018 a Saudi airstrike obliterated a bus carrying schoolboys on a field trip in northern Yemen, leaving 40 children and 11 adults dead.
The war has resulted in the displacement of over three million people. The Saudis have dropped cluster bombs (banned under International Law) which have killed innocent civilians and Houthi rebels have fired missiles indiscriminately into Saudi territory. According to the UN Security Council Yemen Panel of Experts air strikes by Saudi Arabia have caused most direct civilian casualties and have violated international law and may amount to war crimes. The airstrikes have hit residential areas, markets, funerals, weddings, detention facilities, civilian boats and medical facilities.
More than 24 million people, including 12 million children, are in need of urgent humanitarian assistance. Over two million people have been infected with cholera and 11 million are on the brink of famine. 2 million children under 5 years old are suffering from acute malnutrition and require treatment. Children are losing their lives because they are malnourished and don't have the ability to fight off even a cold - a child dies every 10 minutes in Yemen from preventable diseases and starvation.
For these reasons, the UN has called it "the world's worst humanitarian disaster".
And now, a military coalition led by Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates has put Yemen's aid lifeline port city of Hudaydah under attack. 90% of all humanitarian aid and commercial food and fuel supplies pass through this port.
Hope centres on UK action
This is a UK issue. On the Security Council, the UK is the 'lead' country for Yemen. It also has close bilateral relations with Saudi Arabia - the country that is leading military action against Yemen's Houthi rebels and is, according to the UN, responsible for the majority of civilian deaths. The UK must build support for a new Security Council resolution demanding a ceasefire, and use its influence with Saudi Arabia to press them to adhere to it.
If enough MPs urge the Government to act, they will have to listen. We need your help.
