How do we find lasting, trusting, and fulfilling friendships? Is it by being popular? Dazzling others with your genius? Looking for that ultimate BFF? Hiding all your imperfections and trying hard to fit in? Deep and enduring friendships are essential to our psychological and physical well-being. Unfortunately, between bullying, social anxiety, peer pressure, and other issues, many teens feel isolated. In Dear Libby, trusted columnist Libby Kiszner offers a breakthrough approach to friendship and connection. You can create friendships from the inside out-rather than from the outside in. You can experience friendships with vibrant self-expression in every stage of life, making Dear Libby a book that can be read and reread at any age. Containing seven core principles, this life-changing resource not only explains the dynamics of connections and friendships but also gives practical tools to develop them. Integrating contemporary issues, timeless insight, real-life skills, and unique perspectives, Dear Libby provides a hands-on guide for dealing with everyday friendship struggles faced by teens today. Teens and readers of all ages will gain insight and understanding on how to make profound, joyful relationships possible. Find answers to real questions like: What should I do when people who are supposed to be my friends call me names or embarrass me? What should I do I do if I'm being ignored at school? What is the best way to handle loneliness? Someone just stole my friend. What can I do? What can I do when my friends get together and "forget" to invite me?

File Transfer Solutions Targeted by CL0P Ransomware Group

The CL0P Ransomware Group, also known as TA505, has exploited zero-day vulnerabilities across a series of file transfer solutions since December 2020. File transfer solutions often contain sensitive information from a variety of organizations. This stolen information is used to extort victims to pay ransom demands. In 2023, CL0P claimed credit for the exploitation of vulnerabilities in both Fortra’s GoAnywhere Managed File Transfer (MFT) and Progress Software’s MOVEit Transfer solutions.

Research conducted as part of security audits has revealed additional vulnerabilities. This dashboard contains a list of vulnerabilities known to be exploited by the CL0P ransomware group as well as other vulnerabilities that could be leveraged by CL0P and other threat actors. Operations teams can use this data to identify the assets affected by the associated CVEs targeted by the CL0P ransomware group. The following Nessus plugins identify the affected vulnerabilities:

  •  90190: Progress MOVEit Transfer Installed (Windows)
  • 176735: Progress MOVEit Transfer Web Interface Detection
  • 176736: Progress MOVEit Transfer FTP Detection
  • 176567: Progress MOVEit Transfer
  • 177371: Progress MOVEit Transfer Critical Vulnerability (June 15, 2023)

The dashboard and its components are available in the Tenable.sc Feed, a comprehensive collection of dashboards, reports, assurance report cards and assets. The dashboard can be easily located in the Tenable Security Center Feed under the category Security Industry Trends.

The requirements for this dashboard are:

  • Tenable Security Center 6.1.1
  • Tenable Nessus 10.5.2

The Security Response Team (SRT) in Tenable Research digs into technical details and tests proof-of-concept attacks, when available, to ensure customers are fully informed of risks. The SRT also provides breakdowns for the latest vulnerabilities in the Tenable blog.

Tenable Research has posted the FAQ for MOVEit Transfer Vulnerabilities and CL0P Ransomware Gang blog post to provide the latest information about this threat.

Sometimes you just have to laugh, even when life is a dumpster fire. With We Are Never Meeting in Real Life., ?bitches gotta eat? blogger and comedian Samantha Irby turns the serio-comic essay into an art form. Whether talking about how her difficult childhood has led to a problem in making ?adult? budgets, explaining why she should be the new Bachelorette— she's "35-ish, but could easily pass for 60-something"— detailing a disastrous pilgrimage-slash-romantic-vacation to Nashville to scatter her estranged father's ashes, sharing awkward sexual encounters, or dispensing advice on how to navigate friendships with former drinking buddies who are now suburban moms— hang in there for the Costco loot— she’s as deft at poking fun at the ghosts of her past self as she is at capturing powerful emotional truths.

For Us, By Us: Envisioning a Kiki Methodology in Black Queer Storytelling (November 13, 2024 6:30pm)

Event Begins: Wednesday, November 13, 2024 6:30pm
Location: Museum of Art
Organized By: Spectrum Center


Who are you? What is your story? How do you express yourself? The experiences of Black queer life are reflected in the ways we tell our stories. We will explore a kiki methodology grounded in ballroom culture and Black queer storytelling. Drawing from queer of color critique and narrative construction, kiki methodology engages in three components: Black queer meaning-making, Black queer storytelling, and Black queer artistic expression. Kiki methodology connects envisioning and centering words, feelings, and voices of the Black queer community in the form of storytelling in higher education. We will engage about what is needed to be in queer community and kinship through storytelling.

Baby's first market failure

Anyone who has tried shopping for day care knows that it is tough out there.

For one, it is hard even to get your hands on information about costs, either online or over the phone – day cares will often only share their prices after you have taken a tour of their facilities. Even once you find a place you like, many day cares have waitlists stretching 6 months, 9 months, a year.

Waitlists are a classic economic sign that something isn't right, that prices are too low. But ask any parent and they will tell you that prices for day cares are actually too high. According to a recent report from the U.S. Treasury, more than 60% of families can't afford the full cost of high quality day care. Meanwhile, day care owners can barely afford to stay open. No one is happy.

On today's show, we get into the very weird, very broken market for day care. We will try to understand how this market can simultaneously strain parents' budgets and underpay its workers. And we will look at a few possible solutions.

This show was produced by Sam Yellowhorse Kesler. Emma Peaslee helped book the show. It was mastered by Gilly Moon. Keith Romer edited this episode. Jess Jiang is our acting Executive Producer.

Cutting school... by 20%

Right now, a lot of school districts across the country are making a pretty giant change to the way public education usually works. Facing teacher shortages and struggling to fill vacant spots, they are finding a new recruitment tool: the four-day school week.

Those districts are saying to teachers, "You can have three-day weekends all the time, and we won't cut your pay." As of this fall, around 900 school districts – that's about 7% of all districts in the U.S. – now have school weeks that are just four days long.

And this isn't the first time a bunch of schools have scaled back to four days, so there is a lot of data to lean on to figure out how well it works. In this episode, teachers love the four-day school week, and it turns out even parents love it, too. But is it good for students?

This episode was produced by Sam Yellowhorse Kesler with help from Willa Rubin. It was edited by Molly Messick and engineered by Maggie Luthar. Fact-checking by Sierra Juarez. Alex Goldmark is our executive producer.
