A Guide to implement SaaS User Authentication and Authorization
Learn how to implement secure user authentication and authorization for your SaaS application with best practices and use cases.
Tuesday, May 2, 2023
Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) has been a buzzword in the software industry for quite some time now. It is a cloud-based software delivery model where applications are hosted and managed by a third-party provider. SaaS has many benefits over traditional on-premise software, including scalability, cost-effectiveness, and ease of use.
However, with these benefits come challenges, especially in terms of security. SaaS applications must be designed with strong authentication and authorization mechanisms to ensure that only authorized users can access the application and data. In this blog, we will discuss the best practices for implementing SaaS user authentication and authorization, including use cases and how to use them.
What is Authentication and Authorization?
Authentication is the process of verifying the identity of a user or system attempting to access a resource or service. It involves the exchange of credentials, such as a username and password or a security token, to confirm the identity of the user or system. The authentication process is designed to prevent unauthorized access to resources or services by verifying that the user is who they claim to be.
Authorization, on the other hand, is the process of granting or denying access to a resource or service based on the authenticated user’s permissions. It involves determining what actions the user is allowed to perform and what resources they can access based on their identity and role within the system. The authorization process is designed to ensure that users only have access to the resources and services that they are authorized to use.
Authentication and Authorization - What’s the difference?
Authentication and authorization are two fundamental concepts in the field of computer security. Authentication is the process of verifying the identity of a user or system attempting to access a resource or service. In other words, authentication is a way of ensuring that the user is who they claim to be.
Authorization, on the other hand, is the process of granting or denying access to a resource or service based on the authenticated user’s permissions. Authorization determines what actions the user is allowed to perform and what resources they can access based on their identity and role within the system.
In simpler terms, authentication is the process of verifying a user’s identity, while authorization is the process of determining what that user is allowed to do once their identity has been verified. Both authentication and authorization are critical components of a secure system, and they are often used together to control access to resources and services.
Best Practices for SaaS User Authentication
1. Use Strong Password Policies: A strong password policy is an essential aspect of SaaS user authentication. Users should be required to create passwords that meet specific criteria, such as a minimum length, complexity, and expiration. Passwords should also be encrypted when stored to ensure that they are not easily stolen or compromised.
Additionally, multi-factor authentication (MFA) should be used whenever possible to add an extra layer of security. MFA requires users to provide additional information, such as a code sent to their mobile device or a fingerprint scan, before they can access the application.
2. Implement Single Sign-On (SSO): Single sign-on (SSO) allows users to authenticate once and access multiple applications without having to enter their credentials repeatedly. SSO can be implemented using various protocols, such as SAML, OAuth, or OpenID Connect.
SSO reduces the number of passwords that users have to remember, which can improve security by reducing the likelihood of users using weak passwords or writing them down.
3. Use SSL/TLS Encryption: Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) and Transport Layer Security (TLS) are encryption protocols that ensure that data transmitted between the user’s browser and the application server is encrypted and secure.
SSL/TLS encryption protects against attacks such as eavesdropping, man-in-the-middle attacks, and data tampering.
4. Implement Session Management: Session management is the process of managing user sessions, including authentication and authorization. Sessions should be terminated after a certain period of inactivity to prevent unauthorized access.
Session management should also include measures to prevent session hijacking, where an attacker steals a valid session ID to gain access to the application.
5. Keep User Data Secure: User data should be stored securely, including passwords, personal information, and any other sensitive data. This includes using encryption to protect data at rest and in transit.
Additionally, access to user data should be restricted to only authorized personnel who need it to perform their job duties. User data should be audited regularly to ensure that only authorized users are accessing it.
Best Practices for SaaS User Authorization
1. Use Role-Based Access Control (RBAC): Role-based access control (RBAC) is a mechanism for managing access to resources based on the user’s role or job function. RBAC is a widely used and effective authorization mechanism that reduces the complexity of managing access control.
RBAC simplifies access control by assigning roles to users and granting permissions to roles, rather than granting permissions directly to individual users. This reduces the administrative overhead of managing access control and makes it easier to enforce consistent policies.
2. Implement Attribute-Based Access Control (ABAC): Attribute-based access control (ABAC) is an authorizationmeant to regulate access based on specific attributes or characteristics of the user, such as their location, device, or time of day.
ABAC can provide more granular access control than RBAC and is often used in situations where more fine-grained control is required. For example, a company may use ABAC to restrict access to certain data based on the user’s location or device type.
3. Use Access Control Lists (ACLs): Access control lists (ACLs) are lists of permissions that define who can access specific resources or functionality. ACLs are often used in situations where RBAC or ABAC are not sufficient, such as when access needs to be granted on a per-resource basis.
ACLs can be used in conjunction with RBAC or ABAC to provide more granular access control. For example, a company may use RBAC to assign roles and permissions to users and use ACLs to restrict access to specific files or folders.
4. Enforce Least Privilege: Least privilege is the principle of granting users the minimum amount of access necessary to perform their job duties. This reduces the risk of unauthorized access, as users cannot access resources or functionality that they do not need.
Enforcing least privilege requires a thorough understanding of the user’s job duties and the resources they require to perform those duties. It also requires regular review and audit of access permissions to ensure that they are still necessary.
Use Cases for SaaS User Authentication and Authorization
1. Enterprise SaaS Applications: Enterprise SaaS applications, such as customer relationship management (CRM) systems or enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems, require strong user authentication and authorization mechanisms. These applications often contain sensitive data, such as customer information, financial data, or intellectual property, which must be protected.
Enterprise SaaS applications often use RBAC to manage access to different modules or functionality within the application. For example, a salesperson may only be granted access to the sales module, while a finance team member may only be granted access to the financial module.
2. Online Marketplaces: Online marketplaces, such as Amazon or eBay, require strong user authentication and authorization mechanisms to protect against fraud and unauthorized access. These applications often contain sensitive data, such as user payment information or personal information, which must be protected.
Online marketplaces often use RBAC and ACLs to manage access to different parts of the application, such as the seller dashboard or the buyer account. Additionally, these applications often use MFA to add an extra layer of security.
3. Health Care Applications: Health care applications, such as electronic health record (EHR) systems, require strong user authentication and authorization mechanisms to protect patient privacy and comply with regulatory requirements. These applications often contain sensitive data, such as patient health information, which must be protected.
Health care applications often use ABAC to manage access to different parts of the application, such as patient records or test results. Additionally, these applications often use SSL/TLS encryption to ensure that data transmitted between the user’s browser and the application server is encrypted and secure.
How to Implement SaaS User Authentication and Authorization
Implementing SaaS user authentication and authorization requires a combination of technical and organizational measures. The following steps can help guide the implementation process:
1. Identify Requirements: The first step in implementing SaaS user authentication and authorization is to identify the requirements of the application. This includes identifying the sensitive data that must be protected, the users who will be accessing the application, and the roles and permissions required to perform their job duties.
2. Select Authentication and Authorization Mechanisms: The next step is to select the appropriate authentication and authorization mechanisms for the application. This may include a combination of RBAC, ABAC, ACLs, and MFA, depending on the requirements identified in the previous step.
3. Implement Technical Measures: The third step is to implement the technical measures required to support the authentication and authorization mechanisms. This includes implementing SSL/TLS encryption, setting up identity providers or directory services, configuring role-based access control, and defining access control lists.
4. Test and Validate: The fourth step is to test and validate the authentication and authorization mechanisms to ensure that they are working as intended. This includes testing the user authentication process, verifying that access controls are working as intended, and conducting vulnerability testing to identify potential security weaknesses.
5. Monitor and Maintain: The final step is to monitor and maintain the authentication and authorization mechanisms to ensure that they continue to provide adequate security. This includes monitoring user access logs, reviewing access permissions on a regular basis, and implementing updates and patches to address any security vulnerabilities that are identified.
Best Practices for SaaS User Authentication and Authorization
1. Use Strong Password Policies: Using strong password policies is essential for preventing unauthorized access to the application. This includes requiring users to choose strong, unique passwords, enforcing password expiration policies, and implementing multi-factor authentication.
2. Implement Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA): Implementing multi-factor authentication (MFA) adds an extra layer of security to the authentication process by requiring users to provide two or more forms of identification. This can include something the user knows (such as a password), something they have (such as a mobile phone), or something they are (such as a fingerprint).
3. Use SSL/TLS Encryption: Using SSL/TLS encryption is essential for protecting sensitive data transmitted between the user’s browser and the application server. This includes implementing SSL/TLS certificates and using HTTPS to encrypt all communication between the user and the server.
4. Regularly Review and Update Access Permissions: Regularly reviewing and updating access permissions is essential for ensuring that users only have access to the resources and functionality that they need to perform their job duties. This includes conducting periodic reviews of access permissions, revoking access for users who no longer require it, and granting new access permissions as necessary.
5. Implement Auditing and Monitoring: Implementing auditing and monitoring mechanisms is essential for detecting and responding to potential security threats. This includes monitoring user access logs, reviewing audit trails on a regular basis, and implementing intrusion detection and prevention systems to identify and respond to potential security threats.
Implementing strong user authentication and authorization mechanisms is essential for protecting SaaS applications against unauthorized access and data breaches. By following best practices and using appropriate authentication and authorization mechanisms, organizations can ensure that their SaaS applications are secure and compliant with industry standards and regulations.

Last week, the ACLU filed a class-action lawsuit against Florida state officials for violating the state constitution, which guarantees a free “uniform, efficient, safe, secure and high quality” public education to its citizens. In Florida’s Palm Beach County, between one-third and one-half of students do not graduate from high school, depending on the method of calculation used (the most generous, not surprisingly, is Florida’s self-reported method).
In addition to low graduation rates, a significant disparity exists between the graduation rates of African-American and Hispanic students and those of white students in Palm Beach County. The stark difference across racial lines is evidence enough of a constitutional violation, but the ACLU lawsuit aims to improve the graduation rates for all students enrolled in Palm Beach County. Our case, Aho v. State of Florida, is novel because the only remedy we seek is a meaningful improvement in Palm Beach County’s graduation rates without pushing students out of the system. The State of Florida and district officials can decide how to best achieve those results.
It is no secret that a quality education exponentially increases one’s chances of success in life. Wayward parents are often blamed for a failing education system, but this lawsuit demonstrates that even parents following every imaginable step to access a quality education are let down by Palm Beach County schools. Beyond that, the school system has a constitutional obligation to educate all students, even those who are not from privileged backgrounds. The district’s graduation rates, which fall well below state and national averages, also cannot be explained by low socioeconomic status, as students in similar and/or worse socioeconomic conditions do far better in other districts.
We understand that Palm Beach County has a difficult job to do. But kids in Florida deserve an environment that promotes opportunity and success and fulfills the constitutional right promised to them, regardless of their race, age, disability, district, and no matter how easy or convenient it is to provide. After all, what good is a constitutional right when it’s left unenforced?

Plant diversity in relation to anthropogenic trace metals in soils of selected sites in Nigeria's Guinea Savanna Online publication date: Fri, 11-Jul-2008
by S.P. Bako, J.E. Odiwo, A.U. Ezealor
International Journal of Environment and Pollution (IJEP), Vol. 33, No. 2/3, 2008
Abstract: Studies on the contributions of anthropogenic activities to trace metal contamination in the soils of the West African sub-region, and their effects on the biodiversity of the area, are scanty. The effect of the trace metal content of soil, contributed by some anthropogenic activities (cultivation, vehicular traffic and industrial activity), on the plant diversity and vegetation structure in each of four sites in Nigeria's Guinea Savanna was evaluated. Soil contents of Pb, Br, Nb, V, Co, and Rb analysed by energy dispersive X-ray Fluorescence (ED-XRF) were generally higher in all the polluted sites than in the control site, except in the low traffic site (B). Co was lower than in the control site and Rb in the industrial site (D) was lower than in the control site. The mean number of plant species was significantly higher in site A (control) than in all the other three sites.

The follow-up to X-Men: Apocalypse has officially been pushed back. X-Men: Dark Phoenix was scheduled to hit theaters in November 2018, now the film has been pushed back to February 14, 2019.
The studio made the announcement late Monday night, as reported by Deadline, along with a few other shuffles. Bohemian Rhapsody (the Freddie Mercury biopic) will now open in Dark Phoenix‘s initial slot of Nov. 2, 2018, and The New Mutants (the next X-Men spin-off) has moved from Feb. 22, 2019 to Aug. 2, 2019.
The X-Men, including Jean Grey, Cyclops (Tye Sheridan) and Mystique (Jennifer Lawrence), are heroes when the film begins and sent up to save some stranded astronauts. But a solar flare hits the X-Jet and all hell breaks loose. “Jean absorbs those solar flares and then hurls them back out into space,” explains director Simon Kinberg of the sequence shown in the above exclusive concept art. “That’s what triggers, awakens, creates this Phoenix force and voice inside her. What appears to the world to be another heroic victory by the X-Men in saving stranded people in space we realize is the thing that begins the unraveling of Jean and the unraveling of secrets Charles told her.”
Dark Phoenix takes place in 1992, which is 10 years after the events of X-Men: Apocalypse and sees the X-Men as celebrities. The team will consist of Mystique (Jennifer Lawrence), Beast (Nicholas Hoult), Storm (Alexandra Shipp), Nightcrawler (Kodi Smit-McPhee), and Quicksilver (Evan Peters), with Charles Xavier (James McAvoy) again leading the team.

PORKBUSTERS UPDATE: Friends of the earmark make themselves heard:
The hottest document on Capitol Hill is an anonymous six-page white paper that defends, of all things, earmarks — those much-maligned home-state projects that lawmakers shoehorn into spending bills.
Doesn’t it say a lot that they’re afraid to make themselves heard, except . . . anyonymously?
A growing number of politicians have decided to just say no to earmarks. Sen. John McCain, the presumptive Republican presidential nominee, has vowed to veto any legislation that contains “pork-barrel spending.” And several Democrats, including Rep. Henry Waxman (Calif.), have promised not to request earmarks anymore.
The trend worries many lobbyists (and some lawmakers), and they are beginning to fight back — in other words, to lobby. Although a publicist initially told the Washington Post otherwise, the Ferguson Group acknowledges that it helped persuade three mayors whose cities it represents to praise earmarks in a Post op-ed Saturday.
But the widely read white paper — “The Fairness of Congressional Earmarking in American Democracy” — is the biggest counterattack so far. The only question: Who wrote it?
My guess was that it was written by some lapper-at-the-public-trough, and sure enough, it turns out I’m right.
UPDATE: Reader John Schwab makes an excellent point:
I think you should be clearer in your response to that white paper. it’s a straw man – I don’t know of anyone who would say that earmarks can serve no purpose whatsoever. It’s out-of-control anonymous earmarks that must be eliminated, especially those that double back to benefit a congressman’s family. Indeed, if earmark abuse is not addressed Congress may lose the power to use earmarks that make sense.
Don’t let them re-frame the debate. If an earmark is such a good idea why won’t they take credit for authoring it?
Heck, they won’t even put their names on the memos defending them.

How the Lines for the Production of Oat-meals and Groats work
The most widespread and traditional material for the production of food and feed oat-meals is oats. It is a nutritionally very valuable and human healthy crop, which contains important amino acids, a very high amount of fats with a suitable ratio of saturated and polyunsaturated fatty acids and carbohydrates with
a high proportion of water-soluble fiber.
The production of oatmeal is a technologically relatively demanding milling process where, due to mechanical and hydrothermal processes, chemically stabilized flakes are produced from cereals intended for direct consumption or for further food processing, such as the production of muesli bars. Oatmeal must be chemically stabilized so that it can be stored for a long time without any change in quality. The technology is also able to flake other types of cereals, such as spelt or wheat.
For flakes of good quality it is necessary to choose a quality input raw material. For cleaning and separating admixtures are used basic machines Cleaner VibroMAX JCM, Destoner JGD and Indented Cylinders JCT.
This is followed by a peeling process, JHS Horizontal Scourers removes the coating and surface layer of grain containing mycotoxins such as aflatoxins or fusaria.
After the peeling process, the raw material intended for flaking is cleaned on a JCC VibroCompact sieve cleaner, where the skins and small impurities are removed. This is followed by the JGT Gravity Table as final cleaning, removal of non-standard grains, grains infested with pests or dry grains.
Prior to flaking on the flaking mill, the grain is hydrothermally treated so that it is properly boiled and chemical stability is ensured. This is done by steaming screw conveyors and a hydrothermal column with precisely controlled dosing of humidity and temperature. After flaking process, the flakes are dried to storage humidity.
Before being packed in bags, the flakes are passed through a control screen on a Cleaner VibroCompact JCC.


Making Future Vertical Lift Open, Safe and Secure
Whether performing transport, logistics, strike or reconnaissance duties, helicopters and tilt-rotor aircraft greatly multiply the effectiveness of ground forces. They are a combat multiplier as well as a lifeline in austere environments. Future Vertical Lift (FVL) will transform the Army’s rotary wing fleet, bringing faster, more lethal and more survivable aircraft to the battlefield.
The heart of this family of aircraft will be the digital backbone, which includes the future attack reconnaissance aircraft (FARA) and the future long-range assault aircraft (FLRAA) for the Army, as well as the attack utility replacement aircraft (AURA) for the Marine Corps. This is a fully integrated, open, safe and secure architecture that will enable true multi-functionality of currently federated systems while providing the Army with the agility to rapidly iterate FVL’s mission systems to outpace the threat. The Army-owned modular, open systems architecture (MOSA) is an advanced and low-risk path to realizing this aspect of the FVL vision.
“Future Vertical Lift will be the most sophisticated rotorcraft to enter military service, with all systems connected by the digital backbone,” said James Conroy, vice president, navigation, targeting and survivability, Northrop Grumman. “Just as a mobile phone relies on an operating system to connect apps and sensors, this digital backbone will allow the next generation of avionics and self-protection systems to work in a unified way.”
With future generations of FVL aircraft planned to operate alongside the enduring fleet of Apaches, Black Hawks and Chinooks, ensuring interoperability and commonality within Army Aviation will also be a top priority. Investments in FVL must enable the enduring fleet to be capable of multi-domain operations concurrently. The mission systems installed on military aircraft today will need updates throughout their lifecycle to stay ahead of changing threats and to adapt to new battlespace realities. For example, an engine may change just once during an airframe’s service life, but the avionics will need to evolve many times, as well as become greater than the sum of their parts through innovative integration.
“Some of the aircrew who will fly on these aircraft have not even been born yet. That’s how far into the future we need to think,” said Conroy. “The way we will keep these aircraft relevant into the 2060s and beyond is open architecture.”
Northrop Grumman is uniquely positioned to help the Department of Defense shift the rotary wing fleet from analog to digital, from federated to open and integrated. For 20 years, Northrop Grumman has been delivering mission computers to the U.S. Marine Corps for the AH-1Z and UH-1Y helicopters. More recently, the company has been upgrading the cockpits of UH-60L Black Hawk helicopters to a digital standard known as UH-60V. Though first applied to the UH-60V, this Army-owned architecture is a clean sheet, model-based systems engineering operating environment designed to support the most advanced platforms and their missions.

A person was murdered on Sunday evening. A man was suspected, and the police interrogated him at Sunday night. He explained to the police officer that he had been at his favourite bar during the evening, and that he had been at that bar every evening during the last week, as usual. The police officer then challanged the man and said that if he got drunk so often is it not then possible that it would affect his memory and that he would thus not be able to trust his memory.
"No, there is no risk that I get too drunk too often" said the man. "You see, I am very regular there, it is like a ritual for me every evening. I go there, and then when I am finished, if I got too drunk, I move a stone one step to the right on the stone wall outside the bar, and if I did not get too drunk then I move that stone one step to the left. In this way I can keep a record and can have some kind of balance in my drinking habits. Every Monday evening, after my visit to the bar, I always start with the stone in its original middle position again, and move it one step to the right or to the left, depending on if I drank too much or not."
On Monday at noon the police officer went to the bar and asked some questions to the staff there. They said that they think the man was there yesterday evening, but that he is so regular that they hardly really think about him or notice him any longer.
When the police officer went out he saw the stone on the stone wall. It was two steps to the right. So he concluded that the man had been drinking a bit too much the last week.
At the police station they all discussed the case and the suspected man. And later on they arrested him.
Why was the man arrested?

Echter’s Nursery and Garden Center in Colorado recently dealt with an issue that has become all too common in the horticulture industry: backlash from anti-immigrant voices in the local community. Like many green companies, Echter’s has responded to labor market pressures by hiring immigrants. The company launched a project to connect scores of new immigrants with potential employers in the green industry of plant growers and retailers.
Last month, Echter even tapped into a growing Facebook network of thousands Denverites who have helped newly arriving immigrants. They quickly learned the basics of immigration labor law. and rallied nine other plant-related businesses and connected with some 80 new immigrants who have work permits. An online spreadsheet helps the employers connect with job candidates.
However, a recent article on CPR.org (Colorado Public Radio) outlines how the company, a community favorite in Arvada, CO, has faced criticism in the form of hundreds of posts on social media and about a dozen messages and reviews sent to the company, many of them accusing Echter’s of taking jobs away from American citizens, or of hiring illegal immigrants.
It’s a situation that has played out in other areas of the country as well. You can read the entire article from Colorado Public Radio here.

Use of design strategies
Rarely would one person work on a design in isolation. More likely they are working as part of team. This allows people to 'bounce' ideas off each other.
You could use a design method called SCAMPER
Here is a video that explains the stages involved.
2 User centred design
This could be done by:
- having user requirements as a starting point for your design ideas
- asking your user to draw out some ideas or make a simple model for you
- modelling your ideas in 3D to gain user feedback to aid your development
- using anthropometric data from your user to influence your design ideas.
3 System thinking
The simplest way is to create a flowchart but start backwards.
- What do you want your product to achieve (output)?
- How is it going to achieve that function (process)?
- What inputs or energies would it need to do that (input)?
4 Exam questions
- Create a flowchart for making a cup of tea. Develop it further into a systems diagram including inputs, processes and outputs.
- Discuss which design strategies a design company might use when designing a pair of headphones.

Toronto inventor develops 'smart' gloves to keep hands warm during winter months
OTTAWA -- A young Toronto inventor has developed a line of “smart” gloves and socks that can keep us warm in the harshest Canadian winters.
Adrien Beyk created Quanta Vici, a line of gloves and socks that are connected to the user’s smartphone and can be electronically heated at the touch of a button.
Using what the company calls “smart sense apparel control,” the gloves can maintain the user’s preferred temperature for up to 6.5 hours, which they say is significantly longer than other heated gloves on the market.
“I would say the biggest thing about this is that they're smart,” Beyk told CTV News. "We actually spent three years working on this.”
Beyk, originally from Iran, came up with the idea while studying engineering at Ryerson University in Toronto and dealing with Canadian winters.
"It's like a three-minute walk, but my hands and feet would freeze,” he said.
The gloves are also thin enough to play musical instruments, another advantage Beyk says his product has over some of the bulkier competitors.
This isn’t Beyk’s only successful venture either. As a teenager, he developed a photo editing software called Pixel Degrees, which has been downloaded millions of times.
Beyk said it’s his passion for computer engineering and fashion that made him interested in starting Quanta Vici.
“This seemed like a great opportunity to mix creativity in fashion design, in hardware design, in software design,” he said.
The gloves are scheduled to be available in the New Year at an initial cost of around $250, though he expects the price to come down.


For a big, concrete-laden city, New York has plenty of foliage. At last count, there were 592,130 trees sprouting from the asphalt, and that doesn’t include parks and cemeteries.
You can see most of them mapped in these lovely visualizations, created by Jill Hubley, a Brooklyn-based web designer, using the city’s 2005 tree census. “I was interested in creating a spatial distribution so that one could see the overall trends at a glance, or focus on a particular neighborhood or block,” she writes in an email.
New York’s five boroughs have varying tree mixes. Brooklyn, for example, has a lot of red in the visualization, indicating all its London Plane trees. Manhattan has more exotic types like Callery Pear and Japanese Zelkova. Queens, which has the most trees, has more Norway Maple and Honeylocust varieties.
The NYC Parks department is currently conducting the 2015 census along with hundreds of volunteers. Hubley says she’ll update as the new data becomes available.
These days, we know much more about urban forests than we used to. As well as tree counts, we have projects like Open Tree Map and the U.S. Forest Service’s i-Tree platform, which value the environmental and economic benefits of city trees.
Ultimately, counting and mapping trees isn’t a matter of idle interest. It’s about recording the environment around us and, hopefully, appreciating it more. Hubley’s maps do the job.

'Hard work has paid off': EU President says gas prices are now lower than before the invasion
Gas prices in the EU are now lower than before Russia invaded Ukraine, said European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen.
"We must keep increasing the pressure on Russia and of course we will continue our unwavering support for Ukraine," she added in a press conference.
At the start of Sweden's six-month EU presidency, Ms von der Leyen said Russia had cut off 80% of gas supplies to the EU in eight months since the start of the conflict in Ukraine, but that the EU had compensated with diversification.
“Hard work has paid off. Gas prices are now lower than before the Russian invasion,” she said at the joint press conference with Swedish Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson in Kiruna, Sweden.
NATO plans to send surveillance planes to Romania to "monitor Russian military activities".
NATO has announced it will send three surveillance planes to Romania next week to conduct reconnaissance missions and monitor "Russian military activities" on the territory of the 30-nation military alliance.
The Airborne Warning and Control System (AWACS) surveillance aircraft are part of a fleet of 14 aircraft normally based in Germany.
Three of the planes will be sent to an airbase near the Romanian capital Bucharest on Tuesday, where they are expected to last several weeks, the alliance said in a statement.
The aircraft "can detect aircraft hundreds of miles away, making them a key capability in NATO's deterrence and defense posture," NATO spokeswoman Oana Lungescu said in a statement.
Since Russia invaded Ukraine in February, NATO has increased its presence on Europe's eastern flank, including by deploying additional combat forces to Romania, Bulgaria and Slovakia.
AWACS "conducted regular patrols over Eastern Europe and the Baltic region to detect Russian warplanes near NATO borders" during the Russia-Ukraine war, the statement said.
"I hate you foreigners, why are you helping them?": Russian soldiers are buried every day and their relatives are asked to keep quiet
Von Diana Magnay, Sky News-Correspondent in Samara
The grave is fresh, surrounded by memorial wreaths of the governor of the Russian city of Samara and the country's Ministry of Defense.
The woman who cried at his side must have been a close relative.
"I hate you foreigners," she screams through tears. "Why are you helping them?"
She means Western aid for Ukraine. It was a US-made HIMARS missile that killed the man she loved and at least 88 other Russian soldiers on New Year's Day in the town of Makiivka in the Donetsk region.
Kyiv says around four hundred were killed. Russia says 89. Whatever the true number, it is the greatest loss of life from a single incident that Russia has admitted to since the beginning of the war.
Russia's defense ministry promptly accused the soldiers themselves, with obvious frankness, of allegedly revealing their location through the unauthorized use of cell phones.
This did not sit well with the increasingly critical Russian military blogosphere, and blame was quickly placed on the commanders for allowing so many troops to be grouped in a single location.
Many of the men came from Samara and the surrounding area.
Funerals are held every day, but funeral notices are kept secret and loved ones have been ordered to keep quiet.
Aerial photos show "Russian position hit in Bakhmut"
Photos released by a Ukrainian volunteer unit in the east of the country allegedly show a Russian position hit in an attack.
Two images show a huge cloud of smoke in the middle of what appears to be an abandoned group of buildings.
Another picture shows a building that was largely destroyed by an explosion.
Meanwhile, Ukraine's State Border Guard Service has shared images of militants allegedly targeting Wagner Group mercenaries near Bakhmut.
The Wagner Group is a Russian private military company fighting in Ukraine.
Bakhmut is strategic for Moscow because it would allow Russian and Separatist forces to penetrate deep into south-eastern Ukraine.
A Sky News reporter says it looks like the Ukrainians have been expelled from Soledar
On the ground in the salt mining town of Soledar, where pro-Russian forces are fighting for a breakthrough, things are moving fast.
Russia earlier today said it had taken control of the city - days after pro-Russian Wagner militants claimed they had won the battle. There is no confirmation from Ukraine yet.
Ourinternational correspondent Alex Rossi, in nearby Sloviansk, said that yesterday "it looked like Ukrainians had been driven out of most if not all of the city".
However, there was still "very, very heavy fighting" with a "huge amount" of artillery and small arms fire, suggesting close combat.
Rossi says it's possible Ukrainian troops are still "trapped in the city and fighting to the last man."
Both sides appear to have taken heavy casualties, he says, and it "looked like Russian troops were moving through most of the city."
Ukraine claims Russia plans to build an army of two million people
The Ukrainian secret service suspects that Russia plans to create a military force of about two million people.
About 300,000 soldiers were drafted into Ukraine in a partial mobilization in September.
Ukraine's defense intelligence warned that Russia could announce another wave of mobilizations in the coming days.
"Preparations for the announcement of the next wave of mobilization in Russia are already actively underway," it said.
It goes on to say: "According to estimates by the military intelligence service of Ukraine, the extent of the mobilization measures taken by the aggressor country points to the plans of its leadership to create an army of about two million people."
It also pointed to recent changes in Russian laws regarding mobilization and said training was ongoing.
Poland and Lithuania are calling for restrictions on Russia's nuclear sector
The two countries are urging the European Union to impose restrictions as part of new sanctions against Russia and Belarus.
“It is becoming increasingly difficult to achieve the necessary unanimity for more sanctions in the EU. Nevertheless, we will propose an ambitious new package,” said a senior diplomat.
Ukraine has already called on the EU to include Russian state-owned nuclear energy company Rosatom in its next round of sanctions, a move that has so far been blocked by Hungary, among others.
A tenth package of EU sanctions should be ready in time for the first anniversary of the invasion on February 24.
Diplomats are expected to propose that the bloc ban more "Russian propaganda" media and remove more Russian banks from the global messaging system SWIFT.
Earlier this month, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said the bloc would impose sanctions on Belarus for helping Russia in the war.

Here are some of the latest pictures from Ukraine as the war is already in its 11th month.
This first image shows Russian soldiers preparing a mortar to fire on the town of Ugledar in eastern Ukraine. The position of the soldiers in this image is unclear.

"Small niches" of Ukrainian resistance in Soledar, says a Russian-installed official
A Moscow-based Donetsk official said there were still "small niches" of Ukrainian resistance in Soledar after Russia claimed it had taken the eastern city.
Ukrainian authorities have denied Moscow's claims that they have taken the city, saying fighting there is continuing.
The capture of Soledar would be Vladimir Putin's first major victory in the war in some time after months of setbacks.
Andrey Baevsky, lieutenant colonel and deputy of the self-proclaimed parliament of the Donetsk People's Republic, told Russian state media: "At the moment there are actually still isolated small pockets of resistance in Soledar, (but) our boys continue to crush the enemy in these places.
"In general, operations have (have) developed successfully and the western outskirts of Soledar are already fully under our control."
The capture of Soledar is crucial to Russia's goal of capturing the nearby town of Bachhmut, which would allow Russian and Separatist forces to advance deep into south-eastern Ukraine.

Advisor Group, one of the nation’s largest networks of independent financial advisory firms, appointed Steve Chipman as senior vice president of strategic acquisitions.
Advisor Group – which is comprised of SagePoint Financial, FSC Securities Corp., Woodbury Financial and Royal Alliance – serves more than 5,000 advisors and oversees approximately $160 billion in client assets.
As head of strategic acquisitions, Chipman will lead Advisor Group’s efforts to attract broker-dealers interested in joining a well-capitalized industry partner with scale to help them grow.
He will work with Jamie Price, Advisor Group’s president and CEO, and the four firm presidents, and will report directly to Jeff Auld, the president and CEO of SagePoint Financial.
In his new role, Chipman says he wants to “help establish a dialogue with these firms and partner with them to maintain their unique cultures while giving them access to industry-leading products, technology and compliance support to enable them to do what they do best – foster their close advisor relationships and help their advisors grow.”
The appointment of Chipman comes on the heels of major platform changes that aim to drive organic growth firmwide.
According to Price, Chipman will help Advisor Group implement its inorganic growth strategy.
“As compliance and technology costs continue to rise, firms without scale are challenged to invest in the discretionary initiatives that are critical to maintain the competitiveness of their offering,” Price said in a statement. “Steve is the right person to help us identify and partner with these firms and give them the freedom to focus on growing their businesses.”
Chipman has 30 years of experience in the financial services industry. Currently he is president and CEO of Foothill Securities, where he’s been for nearly 11 years.
In August 2016, Foothill Securities was acquired by Securities America. At the time, Chipman said increasing compliance costs, such as those associated with the new Department of Labor fiduciary rule, reinforced the decision to find a buyer.
“Having served as the CEO of a mid-sized financial services firm combined with my experience serving financial services firms at a large correspondent clearing firm, I am intimately familiar with the challenges they face keeping up with the growing expenses and risks associated with running a broker-dealer,” Chipman said in a statement. “With the continued heightened regulatory environment and impending DOL implementation, now is great time to evaluate how best to seize the opportunities that will be available to firms that are well positioned for such change.”
Chipman also recently completed a four-year term as a member of the Board of Directors of the Financial Services Institute (FSI), from 2012 through 2016. He’s also served on the District One FINRA Committee for six years. Additionally, he served on the FINRA Regulatory Advisory Council and the SIFMA Membership Committee.

Coro-Vane® Truck Pumps
The Z-Series Coro-Vane® truck pumps are specifically designed to perform in such severe operating conditions as high differential pressure, pump overspeeding, poor suction conditions and heavy thrust loads associated with a power take-off (PTO) drive system.
The PZ-Series Coro-Vane® Petroleum pumps are a positive displacement vane design. They produce a maximum differential pressure of 125 psig (8.6 bar) and a maximum working pressure of 200 psi (13.8 bar). Corken manufactures two sizes of PZ-Series Coro-Vane® pumps with a capacity up to 160 gpm (605 L/min).
The PT-Series pumps are a special type of rotary positive displacement pump, known as a sliding vane pump. The sliding vane pump has many of the positive displacement advantages of the gear pump, plus the ability to compensate for wear, and operate at a lower noise level. The sliding vane pump consists of a rotor turning inside a cam that is machined eccentrically in relation to the rotor. As the rotor turns, the liquid that is trapped between the rotor, cam and vanes is displaced. The PT-Series pumps are made with vanes
produced from advanced polymers which exhibit extremely low coefficients of friction. The self adjusting vanes compensate for wear and help extend the life of the pump.
From its start in 1956, Liquid Controls, a unit of IDEX Corporation (NYSE:IEX), has been dedicated to providing high quality flow meters and accessories for accurate liquid measurement in both custody transfer and process control applications.
Continuously branching out from the original military aircraft fueling requirement which gave us our start, we now serve a wide variety of industries.
Our manufacturing team is made of the most highly skilled craftspeople in the region, all working together each day to assure that personal care goes into each task that makes up an LC product.
We rely on a strong combination of in-house engineered designs and a network of strategically located factory authorized full service distributors to ensure that our customers around the world are supported with technology tailored to each industry's particular requirements.
Planned obsolescence has no part in our philosophy, and we at Liquid Controls are proud that our products, correctly installed and maintained, will provide years of dependable service.
The petroleum industry is comprised of three main markets. Liquid Controls focuses on the midstream and downstream markets which includes the transportation, transfer, storage and marketing of refined fuels, mainly gasoline, diesel and heating oil. The upstream petroleum market focuses on the extraction, movement and refining of crude oil. The crude oil is moved to the refineries primarily through a pipeline network. Faure Herman provides the flow metering solutions best suited for this market.
Whether the application is for a bulk plant or a tank truck, Liquid Controls provides a complete line of Positive Displacement Flow Meters, Turbine Flow Meters, Terminal Automation, Mass Meters, LectroCount electronic registers, and all of the accessories necessary for the safe and accurate measurement for the custody transfer of refined fuels.
Liquified Petroleum Gas (LPG) is used for heating, motor fuel, industrial applications and in agriculture. LPG is a gas at atmospheric pressure and temperature but is easily liquified. In a liquid state, LPG is easy to transport and store which significantly increases its commercial value. Recent developments have increased the interest in LPG for motor fuel as an alternative fuel.
Liquid Controls provides solutions for metering and pumping LPG in stationary and mobile applications. From bobtails to bulk plantd the MA-Series and MSA-series meters have provided safe and accurate measurement for custody transfer. The Z-series pumps from Corken provide the perfect complimentary product for a complete movement, measurement and management solution.
Liquid Controls flow meters are found in a variety of applications in the aviation industry. Since our first meter supplied to the US Airforce in 1956, our products have been found fueling ground support equipment, on hydrant carts and refuelers for underwing or overwing fueling, and at the loading racks loading the fuel onto the refuelers.
The Liquid Controls positive displacement flow meters provide measurement of Avgas and Jet Fuel up to 1200 gallons per minute assuring efficient and accurate fueling. Recent product enhancements include electronic registration and data capture utilizing the LectroCount LCR. The advent of electronic registration enables the user to capture and communicate transactional data while ensuring safety by intelocking to valves to prevent accidental overfills. Additional features allow for measurement and recording in volume or pounds.
There is increasing public awareness of the need to reduce the consumption of non-renewable petroleum fuels as they become more scarce, more costly, and more at risk of supply disruption. The easiest and quickest way to reduce consumption of non-renewable fuels is through the broader usage of “alternative” fuels. Alternative fuels are those fuel mixtures that use some percentage of domestic “renewable” hydrocarbon: ethanol, vegetable oil derivative, or other renewable hydrocarbon product. Liquid Controls provides application specific metering solutions for these alternative fuels.
Liquid Controls products have been successfully applied in biodiesel and ethanol production, transportation and blending for many years . Whether you are metering B2 or B100, E10 or pure ethanol, or any blend in between, Liquid Controls can provide the safe and accurate metering solution.
In 2010, the EPA enacted the On-Highway Emission Regulations. These new environmental standards, require most major diesel engine manufacturers to incorporate Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) exhaust systems that significantly reduce nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions.

Music Business Association President James Donio released the following statement regarding the passing of Peter Tork:
“I am deeply saddened, as is the music community at large, to hear of the passing of Monkees bassist Peter Tork. The band left a major impact on the music world through both their records and TV show, and Peter’s charm and charisma was no doubt instrumental in cementing their lasting success. On a personal note, The Monkees was the first record I ever received. It proved to be a deeply transformative gift, one that led to my love of music and sent me on the trajectory to eventually work in the music business. The Music Business Association presented Peter and Monkees drummer Micky Dolenz with our Outstanding Achievement Award at our Annual Conference in 2016, on the occasion of the group’s 50th anniversary. Sharing the stage with Peter and Micky, coincidentally 50 years after receiving the group’s album, is a moment I will truly never forget.
“My heart breaks today for Peter’s family, his bandmates, and his countless fans across the globe.”

Arsonist arrested after napkins are set on fire at In-N-Out Burger
This article was originally on a blog post platform and may be missing photos, graphics or links. See About archive blog posts.
A 71-year-old convicted arsonist was arrested Wednesday after allegedly burning napkins outside of an In-N-Out on Brand Boulevard in Glendale because he was “trying to have a good time,” police said.
Gerald Harris of Glendale was taken into custody about 11:19 p.m. on suspicion of committing arson, police said. He has been convicted of the same crime twice before in the past 10 years, according to Los Angeles County Superior Court records.
Harris, a registered sex offender, was discharged on Dec. 7 from serving parole for the same offense, according to Glendale police officials.
Officers saw Harris allegedly lighting a stack of napkins on fire before throwing them in the air in the 100 block of South Brand Boulevard, according to police reports.
Fearing the napkins could set fire to nearby businesses due to windy conditions, police immediately detained him.
Harris allegedly told officers he was throwing the napkins because he “wanted to put on a show,” police said. He was allegedly lighting the napkins with a lighter, according to police. Authorities later found a matchbox and candle on the ground near his belongings.
Harris has a lengthy criminal history, with several convictions for trespassing, battery, vandalism, theft, public drunkenness and three convictions for indecent exposure, according to court records. He has also been charged twice with failing to register as a sex offender.
Police reported that Harris has been complying with sex offender registration requirements.
[Updated 3:54 p.m.: A previous version of this post lacked Harris’ first name and stated incorrectly that he was a registered arsonist. ]

Nassau County police officers shot and killed an alleged carjacking suspect while trying to place him under arrest outside of his home Tuesday, Feb. 25, in Cambria Heights, authorities said.
After meeting a person who was selling online a Mercedes on Jericho Turnpike in Garden City Park, 19-year-old Matthew Felix, allegedly put a gun to the victim’s head, stole the vehicle, and drove it home, police said. Nassau’s Third Squad detectives tracked the suspect to his home on 221st Street, surveilled the residence, and elite Bureau of Special Operations officers were tasked with taking him into custody when the shooting occurred around 5 p.m.
“Officers attempted to make an arrest as the subject left his residence,” Nassau County Police Commissioner Patrick Ryder told reporters Wednesday during a news conference at police headquarters in Mineola. “Our officers were faced with circumstances that resulted in the use of deadly physical force.”
Ryder declined to say what exactly Felix did for police to feel threatened enough to open fire, how many shots were fired, or whether the officers were wearing body cameras. He said the officers involved were treated for trauma at area hospitals. He added that Felix had prior arrests, including for a recent shooting in Queens.
The commissioner referred questions about the investigation to the New York City Police Department, which referred questions back to Nassau police. Ryder said the Queens District Attorney’s office was also investigating the incident. He added that Nassau police are cooperating with city investigators.
When pressed on why Ryder was tightlipped about the details of the case, he said he wished to maintain the integrity of the probe.
“That would be irresponsible of me to speak about another agency’s investigation,” he said. “I will not interfere with it and we will fully cooperate.”

The Fratellis just released their highly anticipated new album, We Need Medicine, through BMG. In celebration, the band embarked on a full US tour, selling out most stops along the way, and peaked at the top ten in alternative radio.
Now, the band reveal their striking, retro-flavored video (by Brendan Kennedy) for deliciously catchy We Need Medicine album cut, “She’s Not Gone Yet But She’s Leaving,” which you can watch below.
The Fratellis made a triumphant return to the road in the US this fall, making stops in New York, Chicago, Los Angeles & more. The band’s live show was praised as “a good old rock and roll show that was a damn good time” (WAWSTSF) & as sending “everyone’s hands up in the air and feet off the ground” (JUMP Philly). As summarized by Rukkus, “their ability to command the stage and awe their crowds is incomparable.”
The full length We Need Medicine album was preceded by a special digital EP, featuring the studio version of “Seven Nights Seven Days” & two live album tracks- “She’s Not Gone But She’s Leaving” and “Whisky Saga,” recorded at Glasgow Barrowlands.
The Fratellis are back with a new album We Need Medicine, slated for release on October 8 through BMG. The new single I posted a couple weeks ago, “Seven Nights Seven Days” exemplifies The Fratellis’ innate ability to write rousing anthems; fast paced, with country guitar hooks and distinctive vocals – topped off with a memorable, to-the-point catchy chorus. The video has just been released and was shot on the streets of North London and directed by Alex Williams. The slapstick dark romance mini-film stars renowned British actor and director, Nick Nevern who has starred in multiple films and TV shows, most recently he wrote, directed and starred in “The Hooligan Factory”.
The Fratellis US Tour Dates
11/1: New York, NY @ Webster Hall
11/2: Washington, DC @ U Street Music Hall

The Fratellis are back! After a 5-year release hiatus, the band is thrilled to announce their third full-length album We Need Medicine, slated for release on October 8 through BMG. An 11-track record of bluesy rock anthems, it was recorded in Glasgow’s West End and produced by Jon Fratelli and Stuart McCredie, who also mixed the record.
Lead by driving percussion, “This Old Ghost Town” is an upbeat summer-perfect track, while the darker “Rock n Roll Will Break Your Heart“ tells a tale of regret and love lost. “Seven Nights Seven Days” is a rousing jam with a deliriously catchy guitar hook, pounding keys and classic Fratellis snarling vocals. Check out “Seven Nights Seven Days” now!

Asked if the Holocaust happened, Iranian president says “I’m not a historian”Breaking News
tags: Holocaust denial
Newly inaugurated Iranian president Hassan Rouhani last night refused to answer a direct question from NBC journalist Ann Curry regarding his stance – agree or disagree – on statements made by his predecessor Mahmoud Ahmadinejad questioning the historical reality of the Holocaust. Rouhani answered “I’m not a historian, I’m a politician.”
The refusal to acknowledge that six million Jews were murdered by Nazi Germany has become a kind of proxy for the degree to which various Iranian leaders are understood as relative pragmatists, and much has been made by Western analysts of statements made by Foreign Minister Mohammed Javad Zarif to the effect that Iranian leaders have never in fact denied that the Holocaust occurred.
The claim is difficult to square with, among other things, boasts by Ahmadinejad claiming that his greatest achievement was mainstreaming Holocaust denial...

[Final Testament/Quran 6:114] Shall I seek other than God as a source of law, when He has revealed to you this book fully detailed? Those who received the scripture recognize that it has been revealed from your Lord, truthfully. You shall not harbor any doubt.
[Final Testament/Quran 7:3] You shall all follow what is revealed to you from your Lord; do not follow any idols besides Him. Rarely do you take heed.
[Final Testament/Quran 5:77] Say, "O people of the scripture, do not transgress the limits of your religion beyond the truth, and do not follow the opinions of people who have gone astray, and have misled multitudes of people; they are far astray from the right path."
[Final Testament/Quran 30:29] Indeed, the transgressors have followed their own opinions, without knowledge. Who then can guide those who have been sent astray by God? No one can ever help them.
[Final Testament/Quran 5:49] You shall rule among them in accordance with God's revelations to you. Do not follow their wishes, and beware...
...lest they divert you from some of God's revelations to you. If they turn away, then know that God wills to punish them for some of their sins. Indeed, many people are wicked.
[Final Testament/Quran 5:50] Is it the law of the days of ignorance that they seek to uphold? Whose law is better than God's for those who have attained certainty?
[Final Testament/Quran 39:27] We have cited for the people every kind of example in this Quran, that they may take heed.
[Final Testament/Quran 39:28] An Arabic Quran, without any ambiguity, that they may be righteous.
[Final Testament/Quran 39:29] God cites the example of a man who deals with disputing partners (Hadith), compared to a man who deals with only one consistent source (Quran). Are they the same? Praise be to God; most of them do not know.
[Final Testament/Quran 45:6] These are God's revelations that we recite to you truthfully. In which Hadith other than God and His revelations do they believe?
[Final Testament/Quran 18:27] You shall recite what is revealed to you of your Lord's scripture. Nothing shall abrogate His words, and you shall not find any other source beside it.
[Final Testament/Quran 10:82] God establishes the truth with His words, despite the criminals.

After weeks of debate and a Western draft that set the stage for military intervention, the UN Security Council has finally reached a unanimous agreement on a compromise Syrian aid resolution.
The resolution, penned by Australia and Jordan, urges both sides to allow humanitarian aid to civilian populations regardless of who controls the territory they are living in.
The resolution also condemns terror attacks, calls on both sides to take steps to end violence around civilians, and urges the Syrian military to stop the use of makeshift barrel bombs.
US and British officials complained that they wanted the resolution to “be even stronger,” but seemed content with the non-specific reference to “further action” if the aid doesn’t flow in short order.
