This is a small community in a single neighborhood. As throughout the site, some neighborhood-level data are reserved for subscribers.
Essex Profile
Essex is a somewhat small town located in the state of Connecticut. With a population of 6,588 people and just one neighborhood, Essex is the 120th largest community in Connecticut. Essex has a large stock of pre-World War II architecture, making it one of the older and more historic towns in the country.
Housing costs in Essex are among some of the highest in the nation, although real estate prices here don't compare to real estate prices in the most expensive communities in Connecticut.
Occupations and Workforce
Essex is a decidedly white-collar town, with fully 88.10% of the workforce employed in white-collar jobs, well above the national average. Overall, Essex is a town of professionals, sales and office workers, and managers. There are especially a lot of people living in Essex who work in management occupations (16.44%), sales jobs (12.53%), and teaching (10.88%).
Also of interest is that Essex has more people living here who work in computers and math than 95% of the places in the US.
One interesting thing about the economy is that relatively large numbers of people worked from their home: 7.39% of the workforce. While this number may seem small overall, as a fraction of the total workforce this is high compared to the rest of the county. These workers are often telecommuters who work in knowledge-based, white-collar professions. For example, Silicon Valley has large numbers of people who telecommute. Other at-home workers may be self-employed people who operate small businesses out of their homes.
Setting & Lifestyle
Because of many things, Essex is a great place for families with children to consider. First of all, many other families with children live here, making Essex a place where both parents and children are more likely to develop social ties with other families, as well as find family-oriented services and community. The town's good public school district and large population of college-educated adults provide an environment conducive to academic values. With regard to real estate, Essex has a high rate of owner-occupied single family homes, which tends to reflect stability in the local community. Finally, Essex's overall crime rate ranks among the lowest in the country, making it one of the safest places to raise a family.
In Essex, a lot of people use the train to get to work every day though Essex is a relatively small town. Those that ride the train are primarily traveling out of town to good jobs in other cities.

Кья́ра Лю́бич (,  — ) — основательница католического движения Фоколяры, известная деятельница экуменического движения.

Биография
При рождении получила имя Сильвия. В годы фашизма её отец потерял работу из-за своих социалистических убеждений, и семья крайне бедствовала. Чтобы оплатить учёбу в университете, Сильвия сама давала частные уроки. Во время второй мировой войны, когда Тренто подвергался массированным бомбардировкам союзной авиации, по её словам, она открыла для себя Божью любовь, которую, как она почувствовала, не могут уничтожить никакие взрывы.

7 декабря 1943 года, молясь в маленькой часовне, Сильвия дала обет посвятить Богу всю свою жизнь и изменила имя на Кьяру в честь святой Клары Ассизской. Эта дата считается днём основания движения «Фоколяре». В 1949 году Кьяра познакомилась с молодым итальянцем Паскуале Форези, который пятью годами позже стал первым фоколяром, рукоположённым в сан католического священника. Трудами о. Форези было открыто издательство «Фоколяров» «La Citta Nuova» (Новый град), которое распространяло идеи Кьяры Любич.

Деятельность
В 1977 году Кьяра Любич стала лауреатом премии Темплтона за прогресс в области религии и мира. В 1996 году — международной премии ЮНЕСКО «За вклад в дело мира».

В 1997 году Кьяра Любич также выступала в ООН с докладом о единстве человечества, а в 1998 получила премию Совета Европы за достижения в области прав человека.

Папа римский Иоанн Павел II четырежды назначал Кьяру Любич наблюдателем на Синодах епископов в 1980-е и 1990-е годы. Она также занимала должность консультанта при Папском совете по делам мирян.

Беатификация
В 2015 году начался процесс беатификации Кьяры Любич

Rugby's next frontier at hand as records tumble and big questions loom

On a hectic weekend of domestic and international rugby, the Women's Six Nations hit a crescendo in style, the Premiership try-scoring record fell and grave questions loom for Bath and Dragons.
Enjoy our weekly round-up of the major talking points.
The women's game is rugby's next great frontier
No longer should the Women's Six Nations share a stage with the men, nor be chained to the same annual schedule. If this seminal championship, conquered again by England's remarkable Red Roses, taught us anything, it is that the women's game is primed to erupt if only it is given the platform to do so.
Record attendance figures were shattered almost by the week. There were brilliant, febrile atmospheres in Leicester, Gloucester, Edinburgh, Belfast, and Cardiff, capped by a the phenomenal din of over 10,000 in Bayonne on the final day.
These things are hard to measure without undertaking a full quantitative analysis, but the depth and breadth of media coverage has gone through the roof. The BBC showed every game live, and their peak audience figures outstripped those for the popular Women's Super League football. Record attendances have been shattered almost by the week.
Wales are making strides, now they have contracted their first tranche of players. Ireland have recovered admirably from the rancour of last year. Italy faltered but remain a force. Scotland's entire squad must at least be afforded fully professional status in preparation for the World Cup. They were close against Italy, closer still against Wales and so close to winning at the Kingspan that they'll be waking up in cold sweats thinking about how they let it slip for a while yet.

The professionalisation of women's rugby is inevitable, but it needs to be hurried along by those at the top. Less than twenty-four hours after a colossal shift against England, Ireland's Aoife McDermott posted a photo of herself putting in an equally demanding stint in her day job as a nurse. The Scots are all given individually tailored support packages and they have come far under Bryan Easson. A whitewash is cruel after three desperately near misses; imagine what they might achieve if put on a level playing field.
The tournament needs more competition for its entrenched top two now. The Red Roses are almost out of sight after notching a record 23 wins on the trot, but with proper resourcing, one of the others could get up there with France. As the grip of coronavirus loosens on the rugby world, the time is ripe for unions to invest in their female pathways.
Women's rugby should be the game's next great frontier, as it grapples to reach new audiences and catch new eyeballs. Give girls and women (and boys and men) new heroes to idolise. Give them relatable, engaging athletes, nimble on social media. Give them Poppy Clealls and Jasmine Joyces and Jade Konkels. Give them more of this pure, compelling sports theatre. Give them that, and you'll get your money back tenfold in participants, ticket sales and viewing figures.
Van Graan can rebuild something out of this Rec
Those of us of a certain age remember a time when the world gave us certainties. Everything closed on a Sunday so if you didn't have sport then Monday was a long time coming around. You remember Rugby Special like you remember your first pair of boots, your first time fumbling around your garden trying to figure out the peculiarities of this odd-shaped ball's bounce. Most of all, you remember Bath in their Golden Age.
Barnes and Guscott; Redman and Hill; Webb and Dawe; shock and awe. Six Premiership titles in eight years; four doubles; a European Cup tagged onto the end of their great run, you imagined things would stay that way forever because the things you experience in your youth are the things you believe will never change.
But they do. Snooker was box-office in the late 80s, early 90s; Everton were a team to beat rather than pity; a programme called Top of the Pops was essential viewing and meanwhile down at the Rec, Bath had their own form of rock stars.
Not anymore. What happened on Saturday was staggeringly inept, a 64-0 thrashing by Gloucester, but worse than that, the accusation they didn't care.
Well, if so, they better soon start. Come the summer, there'll be a new sheriff in town. Johann van Graan is an incredibly polite man which gives the false impression he may be shy to take tough decisions. He's not. In November he announced he was invoking a six-month clause in his contract to go from Munster to Bath, to go from a team that is currently preparing for a Champions Cup and URC quarter-final to one that is bottom of the Premiership.
He wouldn't have done it if he didn't believe he had the freedom to make changes. Bringing JP Ferreira, his understated but superb defence coach with him, is a good starting point. Put it this way, Gloucester wouldn't have put 64 points on Bath if Ferreira was running their defensive drills.
The Rec is a wreck that needs rebuilt. It is a team with an impotent attack, inadequate pack, indifferent attitude and a general who can't mobilise his troops. That won't change overnight but if you look at what Van Graan did at Munster, making shrewd signings – Tadhg Beirne, Joey Carbery, Mike Haley, Damien De Allende, RG Snyman – as well as knowing when to introduce fresh blood from his academy – Craig Casey, Ben Healy, Thomas Ahern, John Hodnett, Alex Kendellen – it's clear he knows how to put together a team in his image.
But his best quality has been his ability to know who to let go and who to keep. Just six survive at Munster from his first squad selection, back in 2017. Of the squad who played – and were outplayed – against Racing 92 in the 2018 Champions Cup semi-final, only a dozen remain.
That's what Bath need right now, someone with an eye on who to buy and the backbone to call underperforming players into his office and say, 'sorry but your future isn't here, sunshine'. After what happened on Saturday, no-one can complain if they are forced to have that conversation.
Ash splashes into the record books
Watching Chris Ashton run in a 20-minute hat-trick as Leicester Tigers dismantled Bristol Bears was like taking a leap back in time. You were transported back to the days when Ashton relentlessly sniffed out the line for England, to the seasons he spent worrying defenders and nailing tries and trophies like a torpedo for Saracens.
The wing is 35 now, but his instincts have not dimmed with the passage of time. Rumour and rancour spread when he changed clubs three times in 23 months. He risked ending his awesome career as a Premiership journeyman, a bad apple, a player unfairly thought to be arrogant thanks to his flamboyant try celebrations. The Ash Splash is indeed iconic, but it portrayed Ashton in a manner he regrets.
"I wish I'd never done it," he told RugbyPass' Jim Hamilton recently.
At Sale, he had a "difference of opinion" with Steve Diamond. Harlequins was "a tough place to be at the time". He felt so down at toiling Worcester that he reckoned it may be "better that I'm not here". He accepts he is not blameless in the tumult. When the brown stuff and the fan collided at Sixways, Ashton thought he might be done with rugby, an agonising three tries short of Tom Varndell atop the all-time Premiership standings. After all, who would sign a wizened winger with a huge disciplinary rap sheet and four clubs in two years on his CV?

Steve Borthwick, Ashton's gnarled old skipper, would care little about the upheaval. He knows Ashton, he backs him, and his faith has been spectacularly rewarded. Borthwick is so frighteningly laser-focused and impervious to outside noise that the signing of Ashton would have been simple to calculate: will he make us better? Absolutely.
So all hail the Tigers, as they march towards a home semi-final, and an intoxicating Champions Cup quarter with Leinster. All hail their supremo, who has turned the Premiership's foundering tanker on a sixpence. And all hail Chris Ashton, English rugby's greatest gunslinger.
Soroka inspires for club and country
It's hard to know what was more impressive about Alex Soroka, his player of the match performance for a noticeably inexperienced Leinster side at the Stormers, or his post-match interview afterwards. Nine of the Leinster match-day squad – including Soroka – had made under 10 senior appearances. Yet they pushed the South African giants all the way, getting a bonus-point defeat.
Still, the pre-match commentary clearly irked the youngster. "There was a lot of chat about us sending a weakened team and that for the other teams it's going to be easy for them," Soroka said. "So we just wanted to prove everyone wrong."
They certainly did that. While losing, they were winning. If this is what a second string – or you could even say a third string – can do to a team positioned second in the URC, then what does that tell you about Leinster's future? The conveyor belt, thought to have slowed, is clearly still working. Centre Jamie Osborne, wing Rob Russell, hooker John McKee, flanker Soroka, remember their names.
The Soroka name, you might have guessed, is Ukrainian. He grew up in Dublin to parents from Kyiv and Dnipropetrovsk. Grandparents, friends and relatives remain in Ukraine. "My granny is doing fine," he said in a moving interview with the Leinster official website last month. "I don't know if it is the Ukrainian nature but they are so tough."
So, by the evidence of Saturday and his appearances for the Ireland Under 20 team last season, is the younger generation of Sorokas, this one saying he feels as Ukrainian as he does Irish, hence his parting words at the end of Saturday's post-match interview. The 21-year-old is using his new-found profile to raise over €53,000 for a children's hospital in Kyiv, that has been bombed in the war. Ireland and Ukraine has a new sporting hero.
Zebre Parma win at last
They are still mopping up tears in Parma, the droplets that trickled down cheeks when departing Zebre stalwarts were farewelled before their home crowd, and the torrents of cascading elation when the Italians brought their heinous losing streak to an end.
In vanquishing Dragons, Zebre won a rugby match at the 28th time of asking. Fourteen months had passed and 960 points been conceded since their previous victory, against the same beleaguered opposition.
On a sun-scorched paddock, long-serving hooker Oliviero Fabiani, a child in his arms, led the doleful parade of leavers. The Stadio Sergio Lanfranchi is seldom full, but those who continue to back the team know the vast contribution many of those men – Fabiani, Guglielmo Palazzani, Giulio Bisegni, Andrea Lovotti – have made to the cause. Fabiani was among the most visibly emotional when those not playing walked across the field waving for the final time.
Come the endgame, with a scrappy, error-and-infringement-laden nerve-fest claimed, emotion burst out of the Italians like a river in spate. They had almost forgotten the scent and taste of victory. Jacopo Trulla choked up as the ball was lashed off the field to signal full-time. Maxime Mbanda, another on his way out, succumbed to the occasion after a mighty shift in the back-row.

Quite honestly, it is hard to see next season yielding a vast improvement for Zebre Parma. There has been paper talk in Italy about the future of the franchise – their agreement with the national federation comes to an end in 2023 – and typically, three of their pivotal, prime-age internationals – Danilo Fischetti, Giosue Zilocchi and Renato Giammarioli – have taken deals in England. They are on their third head coach of the season after Michael Bradley was sacked, Emiliano Bergamaschi took a temporary leave of absence for personal reasons, and Fabio Roselli took the job through to the end the 2022-23 campaign.
In clearing out the veterans, Zebre hope to make way for a new wave of Italian talent. And that wave is coming. Look at the sterling performances of the Italy Under-20s, with a hefty Zebre contingent, or at the stunning win in Cardiff which ended the national team's even grimmer losing run.
For now, let the tears flow. And well they might. A long-awaited morsel of joy for a proud rugby people.
Dissent in Dragons ranks?
And the Dragons? It seems neither players nor coaching staff can wait for this wretched season to end. The region has been relatively well resourced – word is, Dean Ryan boasts a more substantial war chest than the Ospreys – but the return on that investment is pitiful. Two wins and a draw, with three games left.
Prior to Saturday, Dragons shipped an average of six tries and 43 points in their past six games. Zebre, mired in that horrific run, stuck three more tries on them. They lost two players to the bin in as many disastrous second-half minutes and could have lost another late on. Discipline deserted them. And discipline tends to abandon a team when there is trouble in the camp.
For more concerning than the performances and statistics and results are the mounting rumours of a rift between Ryan and his players. It has been suggested senior squad members have gone as far as expressing their concerns directly to the board, who are expected to offer Ryan a new contract.
Dragons are tooling up in the summer; Sean Lonsdale, George Nott and Bradley Roberts are forwards of sound pedigree; JJ Hanrahan will vie for the 10 jersey with Sam Davies; the marquee, pulse-quickening addition of Sio Tomkinson should add punch to their feeble attack. But all the firepower in the world won't yank them from the rugby doldrums until domestic harmony is restored.

Sounds to me like Frege was finally waking up and taking a dose of common sense. The Equator is the standard example of a non-actual objective object.

In a shocking betrayal, a member of infamous crime lord Joaquín "El Chapo" Guzmán's trusted inner circle turned on the mafia boss, spilling nearly all the secrets of the drug-trafficking empire!
For nearly five hours, Vicente Zambada Niebla, son of Ismael Zambada García, one of the cartel's leaders and co-founders, openly revealed smuggling routes, money-laundering schemes, violent and personal vendettas, and millions of dollars in bribes.
Zambada Niebla's testimony came at the midway point in the drug trial of "El Chapo." As Radar has reported, the drug Lord was arrested in 2016 in Mexico, after escaping from prison that summer after digging an extensive hole and tunnel underneath his cell shower.
In 2017, he was extradited to the U.S. and his trial finally began in late November of last year.
It is alleged that Guzman spent a quarter of a century smuggling more than 155 tons of cocaine into the United States.
Legal experts say the case against Guzman is water-tight and could see him being sent to a maximum-security prison for the rest of his life.
In opening statements, assistant U.S. attorney Adam Fels told a jury how the kingpin would become famous for using an army of hitmen to wipe out his competitors, and anyone within his Sinaloa cartel who betrayed him.
"Money, drugs, murder… that is what this case is about," he said.

Inside the Phantom's lair: A behind-the-scenes look at the iconic musical
An opera ghost has been lurking in the shadows of the Belk Theater. But, he'll be moving on to haunt other venues following the final Charlotte performance of "Phantom of the Opera" on Sunday. The Andrew Lloyd Webber musical has been nearly sold out during its 12-day run in the Queen City.
The touring company met with a handful of journalists at the Belk Theater on Feb. 12 for a behind-the-scenes look at "Phantom of the Opera," where Stage Manager Heather Chockley revealed some insider's information on what it takes to put on this iconic show. Read Andrea Honaker's review of "Phantom of the Opera."
CAST Q&A
Jacquelynne Fontaine – She's played "Carlotta" since the new touring production began in October 2013.
Question: What was it about this role that interest you?
Answer: "It's a really fun role because it combines a lot of things that I've pursued in my life, Opera being paramount. I've spent a lot of time in Italy, and Carlotta is an Italian of this era. One of the reasons I even entered theater and studied theater was because I loved the history and the costumes."
Q: What has changed in this new version of Phantom?
A: "It's a filmic take on it. It's very spectacular. None of the music has been changed, none of the plot has changed. The costumes are the same. Instead, we've updated the stage and the lights, because when it was originally created 30 years ago, they used the most advanced materials that they had. Thirty years later, we have a really cool foundation on which to build."
Q: What's it like being a part of such an iconic musical?
A: "You're jumping into a family, and we call it family with a 'ph.' It's really special to be a part of something that's such a part of American, British, worldwide culture. It's an honor, it's humbling, and it's really exciting."
Storm Lineberger – He's a recent college graduate who joined the cast as Raoul eight weeks ago.
Q: What's your character like?
A: "He's a little snarky. He's got some edge and he's not the pushover that some people can think of his being. I've really sort of taken that and ran with it."
Q: What is it about Phantom that has made it such a classic, timeless musical?
A: "The first thing, without question is Andrew Lloyd Webber's lush score. It really tugs your heartstrings. Secondly, it's the Phantom himself. I feel people really connect with the idea that you can sort of feel isolated sometimes. And when he finds that someone has compassion for him, that really lifts him up. And sort of also the idea of deciding between two sides of yourself. … It's really well-written, in the sense that each character has their own journey, and I think that really helps the audience sort of find their own story."

Q: How to increase the reliability of deployment? Deploying solutions, both from within Visual Studio and a Powershell script seems really unreliable. For example, I have one package trying to deploy about 3 .dlls and on average it's taking 3 attempts to work. I do nothing in between each attempt besides clicking deploy!
I get the usual "unable to add x.dll to the GAC", yet trying immediately after I'll get the same message for a different dll.
I'm developing on a co-located Server 2012 VM, but we get similar problems on our staging environment which is a more traditional 3-tier farm.
It's really really killing my development speed as it's taking anywhere between 2 and 5 minutes just to deploy, let alone then start debugging.
Does deploying to the bin folder rather than the GAC help? Any ideas how I can overcome this?

A: For SharePoint 2007 deployment, I personally use WSP builder, works great as far as you use it properly.
However back in day,s I used to add a project output to solution and then generate CAB files, then convert CAB file into WSP by changing file's extension and use STSADM command for deployment.
In newer version of SharePoint (2010, 2013) & Visual studio (2010, 2012) it has been made really easy to create solutions project based on templates and then deploy them using a single button command. This seems to be a great relief for SharePoint developer however sometimes you will come across unusual errors while deployment of solutions specially for VS 2012 for SharePoint 2013.
For SharePoint 2010 and 2013, I personally use WSP file out of bin folder and add + deploy it using Power-Shell. If your servers are fast enough then you can add solution using PS and then deploy it through Central administration.

Deploying solutions, both from within Visual Studio and a Powershell
  script seems really unreliable. For example, I have one package trying
  to deploy about 3 .dlls and on average it's taking 3 attempts to work.
  I do nothing in between each attempt besides clicking deploy!

Could be because your machine is slow and takes time to deploy solutions, also check what steps its going through while deploying in your deployment settings, if nothing suspicious then record and analyze ULS logs to figure out what's actually is wrong,
How to use ULS Viewer in SharePoint environment
It used to happen to me with STSADM deployment and I had to manually use this, as development machine was too slow.

Discussion in 'Olympus Cameras' started by kriskerry91, Oct 5, 2012.
I bought an Olympus E-PL3 about a week ago brand new for £299.99 with 14-42mm Kit Lens and i'm very happy with it.
I've just noticed a great deal and it's not even on offer it's just a standard package.
It's £279.99 for an Olympus E-PM1 with 14-42mm Kit Lens AND 40-150mm Zoom Lens.
Should i take it back and get the E-PM1???
P.S i don't really need the tilting screen on the E-PL3.
If u dont need tilt screen then EPM1 is as good as EPL3, both use the same sensor.One more thing - why dont u return it and wait for EPM2?That will offer u much better sensor performance . Panny GX1 is one more camera which is more fun.
when is the E-PM2 due for release in the UK?
I'm guessing it will have a larger sensor in a slightly bigger body?
The sensor size remains the same.
The sensor size and body remain the same, as OlyPanda said, but there is a jump in sensor performance on the new PENs (same sensor as the OM-D). There are improvements especially in resolution, dynamic range and high ISO noise.
On the other hand, the EPM1 and EPL3 still take great photographs, and you can use money saved to go towards lenses! There will always be a new line of PENs yet again in 12 months or less.
I really want the 40-150mm lens and its fairly expensive on it's own, and take away the flip out screen you basically have a more buttoned version of the E-PM1.
Plus on this deal i'll be saving £20. Not alot, but every little helps!
Then, I think you have an answer. Return the E-PL3 and go for the E-PM1 + 2 lenses deal! I don't think you'll regret the move!
So I say go for the E-PM1. It's looks like a better deal. I went for the E-PL3 only because the tilt screen is very important to me.
From what I read, there are significant improvements in base/low ISO as well including improved shadow noise. It is generally understood that E-P3/E-PL3/E-PM1 sensor was way outdated even when first released let alone a year later. E-PM2 should be good enough for a few years. Remember, your lenses are only as good as good your sensor.
I agree that the sensor is going to be an improvement, but I think you can have an IQ bottleneck in either the sensor or the lenses. For example, if you don't have a focal length that you want to use a lot (OP mentioned 40-150mm), it doesn't help you a lot if your sensor scores well at dxo. If you are watching the budget, I think it would make more sense to invest money in lenses rather than a body that will change over in less than 12 months.
The deed is done. I now have a E-PM1 with 14-42mm and 40-150mm! And saved £20! Very very happy!
The EPM2 according to Amazon is going to be released on 31st October.
The price is £499 so this would have been a significant difference to the price of the deal gone with.
As you are looking for UK suppliers, keep an eye on SRS microsystems for your 40-150mm. They have lenses split from kits from time to time for really good prices. Ffordes is also worth a look for the best in secondhand lenses.
I think now i'm going to start looking at the VF-3 and a prime lens. Defo want to get the Oly 60mm Macro lens but its waayy out of my price range at the minute!
Indeed - and the equivalent twin lens kit (EPM2 +14-42 +40-150) is £750 on amazon UK - so nearly treble the price of the EPM1 twin lens kit deal @ £279.

John Abraham and Emraan Hashmi come together for Sanjay Gupta's gangster flick set in the 80s & 90s
John Abraham and Emraan Hashmi are teaming up with director Sanjay Gupta for a gangster flick which will showcase the transformation of Bombay into Mumbai. Read to know more.
Written By Pinkvilla Desk 145741 reads Mumbai Updated: June 11, 2019 04:41 pm
One of the most prolific filmmakers who has many films to his name is Sanjay Gupta who has given Bollywood films like Shootout at Wadala, Shootout at Lokhandwala, Kaabil and more. The director is known for making gangster flicks and now is planning to make one more. For his next, Sanjay Gupta has brought together two of the most well-known actors of Bollywood and they are none other than John Abraham and Emraan Hashmi. John Abraham was last seen in Sanjay's film Shootout at Wadala.
Now, Emraan and John will be seen in a gangster flick which is set in the 1980s and 1990s when Bombay became Mumbai. The entire story will be set around the time which involves key events like the closing of mills, the murder of a key businessman, the nexus between politicians, cops, the underworld and the business fraternity. The filmmaker mentions that this film is pretty close to his heart and hence, it has a special place. As per a report in Mumbai Mirror, it will be a two-hero film where there will be scenes of a cat and mouse chase between the two.
Sanjay said, "Its my 3rd outing with John and I'm super excited to work with Emraan, I have always wanted to work with him and I am back to my base of filmmaking, gangster dramas and all I can say is...It's Good to be Home." Sanjay Gupta will not only be directing John and Emraan but will also be co-producing the film with Bhushan Kumar. The film will be going on the floors in July and will try to wrap up by the end of the year. This will be the first time that Emraan and John will be sharing screen space.
(Also Read: John Abraham: Stream of patriotic films is totally worth it)
Meanwhile, John is busy with the shooting of his next which is Pagalpanti with Anees Bazmee. While shooting the film, John injured his arm and had to take an off for recovery. On the other hand, Emraan will be working with Amitabh Bachchan in Chehre. It is slated to release on February 21, 2020.

Versatility and simplicity has always been the forte of Python and has served as the big reason for the choice of big-names like Facebook and Google. Python maintains a consistent rank of being the one among the well-known top 10 programming languages of the world. It is considered to be an interpretive, object-oriented and high-level language having inbuilt diverse semantics.
No wonder, its efficient binding data structures make it a highly preferred option for Scripting purposes and Rapid Application Development. Owing to the increased demand, requirement for Python experts is on all-time high. However, choosing one is always tricky. So, you need to have a clear understanding of what you need and what you wish to build before hiring an expert Python Developer to make your vision come true.
Holding technical interviews specifically for Python developers is crucial. Have a well-structured conversation by preparing questions based on the specific topics you wish to discuss with the potential candidates.
Make sure that you ask the programmers about some of the best tools that they would love to use for your project. Also, be clear about informing the professionals about the tools available at your workplace to avoid critical issues later on.
The interview questions should also enquire about the roadblocks they might face during the project's development stage.
If you are not well-versed in Python language, then make sure that your technical team handles the interviews to identify a talented developer.
Focus more on asking problem-solving questions that are relevant to the issues your technical team faced while working on an earlier project.
Analyze the answers offered by the prospective applicants to check if their solutions are better than the ones provided by your existing team.
If the developer feels that a specific Python framework will be apt for the given issue, then initiate further discussion by asking more questions to find the reasons behind their thoughts.
After the general interview process, assess the technical ability of the shortlisted candidates. Python language is built with features like dynamic typing and binding that enables you to identify some hard-to-catch mistakes, making it easier for you to determine the perfect developer.
Before you hire a Python Developer for your project, it is essential to know his or her strength by testing their programming skills. You can conduct this test with the help of a mock-up of your product or by making use of a well-established template.
The different ways through which the developer handles a project while letting you keep track of the time taken for the completion of a task.
The test for Python skills would offer you an idea about the time taken by your potential candidate and how much initiative he takes for identifying the novel ways to derive a better output.
A skilled developer will be able to offer his or her suggestions, which will give you a clear picture of his creativity, problem-solving skills and how passionate he is about his job role.
The test will also give you an idea if the applicant can solve all the architecture issues with Python software.
Check if their preferred frameworks are similar to the ones you use internally or if it is a sensible choice for your project.
It is imperative to hire a Python expert having excellent time management skills and work ethics. The best developer should have excellent control and calculate the exact amount of time required for completing the task. They must also be able to deliver projects in a timely fashion and offer updates regularly.
A Python professional should be best in dealing with partners or leaders and specialize in client management, which will save you the trouble of being the torch bearer.
The Python professional whom you choose must not only be able to write a sophisticated piece of code but should also have the reputation of being one among the best in this field. Your project will be the best in the market only when you hire a professional who knows the nuances of coding.
Check for the following features to stay assured that the Python Developer is well aware of the market.
The Python expert you select should be aware of the changes in the programming languages and must be mindful of the updates that might improve or enhance the project.
Apart from understanding the syntax changes, the developer must be dedicated to holding regular maintenance periodically, checking earlier projects and running activities smoothly.
He must consider using unit testing even for small tasks, as it will be easier to identify the issues, such as logical errors or syntax errors if any.
The Python professional you choose must have up-to-date knowledge about the developments and changes in the industry and should be willing to welcome new changes for progressing further. Python savvy professionals would also be a member of popular online forums and programming communities where they can interact with other Python professionals and discuss the latest programming trends in the market.

[Tomato Dirt] Yellow Tomato Leaves: What Do They Mean?
Join us on Pinterest! Browse our 40+ boards (and growing) for all kinds of tomato inspiration and practical information: tomatoes just off the vine, staking tomatoes, canning tomatoes, drying tomatoes, tomato problems – even yummy ways to use fresh tomatoes. Check our our page. Happy pinning!
Feature: Yellow Tomato Leaves – What Do They Mean?
Yellow tomato leaves are a symptom associated with several tomato problems. But yellowed leaves rarely appear alone. Usually, your tomatoes give you another clue to diagnose the problem. Study your plants carefully. Use this checklist to help figure out which situation fits your tomato plant.
Over-watering or under-watering. If your season has been especially wet and cool, your tomatoes may be "drowning." Water can clog air pockets in the soil and prevent plants from getting needed air, choking off leaves. Then they yellow. On the other hand, if you're in a heat wave with excessive temperatures, your plants could be over-stressed and under-watered, which could cause them to drop leaves. Make sure plants are getting 1-3 inches of water a week - on the high end of that if it's hot and on the low end if it's cool.
Early blight or Septoria leaf spot. Yellowing leaves are a symptom for both diseases. To tell the difference, check to see if there are spots on the leaves. Early blight exhibits dark concentric circles on leaves and stems. Septoria leaf spot presents small dark spots on the lower leaves. Read more about different kinds of tomato blight and how to tell them apart.
Tomato wilts. Fusarium wilt and verticillium wilt also exhibit yellowed leaves. Fusarium often just affects one side of the plant. Verticillium encircles the plant, but the yellowed pattern on leaves is V-shaped.
Curly top virus. Infected plants turn yellow and stop growing.
Pests. Aphids, whiteflies, flea beetles, tomato hornworm and tobacco hornworm, and psyllids attack tomato plants and leave holes, dew, or chewing injuries to plants -- in addition to yellowed leaves. Check undersides of leaves and along stems for pests!
Many tomato problems on leaves are treatable once you identify the source. Use this list of problems on tomato leaves to help you identify your problem specifically.
We're looking for the biggest (by weight) tomato grown in July. The lucky winner will get Tomato Dirt bragging rights … a certificate … and acknowledgement on the Tomato Dirt website.
Take a photo of your tomato on a scale, showing its weight.
Submit your entry, either by sending us an email or posting your entry on our Facebook page.
Enter by midnight on July 31.
Even if you think your tomato is not all that big, enter anyway. We're looking forward to seeing what everyone's growing! Plus you'll encourage other gardeners. Read all the details about how to enter here.
Many tomato funguses (first diagnosed with yellowing leaves) can be treated organically with a biofungicide like Serenade to lessen symptoms. Follow label instructions.
Or apply a fungicide such as chlorothalonil (sold as Fungonil) , Mancozeb fungicide, or Daconil at the first sign of fungus when fruit sets (as a preventative measure) or when conditions indicate a strong potential for it to develop. Follow label directions. Re-apply every 7-10 days or after rain.

This is a book that looks at small-press printing from creative folks who make their own prints.
It talks about silkscreen, letterpress and woodblock, but the majority of examples shown are actually from screen printing. You get to see photos of interesting workspaces and lots of beautiful prints. For each print featured, there's either a story behind the design or a description of the techniques.
It's fascinating to see the designs that the artists and designers can come up with using just a limited set of colours, such as three, but there are also examples of those who use up to twenty. Even simple designs can be striking.
What's missing in the book though is a step by step look at how screen printing is actually done. That can be easily found on Youtube.
Overall, it's a great book for those into small-press printing, and those who like handmade stuff.

Spent a morning with student affairs colleagues developing new program and learning outcomes to define our work in connection to university and division strategic plans. Beginning at the bottom of Bloom's Revised Taxonomies (below), we crafted outcomes statements to link programs and goals to unit learning domains.
Student Affairs assessment is not spontaneous. It must be intentional and carefully defined to provide meaning for your unit and for your students. If not, it becomes just another "so what" to toss on the shelf.
Learning outcomes are all about the verbs. Check out this great list of Bloom's Taxonomy Action Verbs.
Want to appear intelligent? Just smile.
PsyBlog featured a new research study on facial evaluation and the power of a smile. The study found that when judging men just on their facial appearance, there was a relationship with actual intelligence. But when it came to judging women, there was no relationship between how intelligent they were perceived and their actual intelligence. The study suggested that this is because women are primarily judged on their attractiveness overruling perceptions about intelligence.
One thing about trains. It doesn't matter where they're going.
Nevitt Sanford is one of my favorite student affairs theorists. Sanford's (1967) theory on student development was based upon providing a balance of challenge and support. Too much support with too little challenge creates a cushy environment for the student, where development is unlikely to occur. However, the opposite of too little support with too much challenge also makes development an impossible and negative experience.
Sanford was a political and social psychologist and instrumental in defining how prejudices and racism are defined early in childhood. His The Authoritarian Personality is a classic work in understanding the issues behind the Holocaust. Sanford engaged in a decade long academic freedom lawsuit with the University of California when he refused to sign a loyalty oath during the McCarthy era.
It was Sanford's work in student development theory that defines my philosophy for student affairs. Sanford pushed for colleges and universities to provide access and service to those for whom higher education may be out of reach. He challenged us to consider what education would look like if colleges enrolled students whom they could help the most, rather than compete for the students who boosted academic rankings and visibility.
What theorist or theory defines your work in student affairs?
Sanford, N. (1950). The authoritarian personality. New York, NY: Harper.

AI's onward march has threatened jobs across industries, but the impact doesn't stop there. Artificial Intelligence (AI) has impacted almost all sectors, and that includes hiring and recruitment space as well. Predictive analytics is going to change the way millions of people are hired and assessed. According to a whitepaper, The Robots Are Here- How AI Has Reshaped Recruiting, AI is viewed as a tool for the future and organizations are chasing a five-year deadline to transform HR from top to bottom.
Leading global consultancy firm Deloitte predicted that 38 percent of companies(10,400 respondents from 140 countries) believe that robotics and automation will be "fully implemented in their business within five years." Companies like Amazon and JP Morgan & Chase have braced themselves for drastic changes in HR function. Case in point – JPMC implemented an AI product that reduced their hiring need of legal professions for loan interpretations. Meanwhile, organizations like Citigroup, Airbnb and Reebok are using Koru a predictive hiring software that identifies the best drivers of performance in the company, increases high quality hires, and reduces bias.
Interestingly, more than half of recruiters have griped about mining profiles of potential candidates being the hardest part of their work. With millions of candidates profiles and resumes across the internet, no top-notch recruiter, or even a Boolean black belt, can cope with those quantities, notes the paper. However, AI surpasses Boolean search in its ability to find matches that don't contain specific keywords. It does this based on correlations and through constant learning as it determines what skills and other attributes are similar and appear in combination.
1) Joberate's J-score: Today, AI plays a huge role in initial screening with intelligent tools flooding the market. For example, Jobearte founded in 2014 has developed a technology solution that scans public social media for signals about the global workforce, and from this publicly available data, curates unique people analytics including the patent-pending metric known as J-Score, which measures job seeking activity level.
The talent search and analytics technology provider has come up with a metric called the "J-score" to assign those who use social media to look for a new career opportunity a job seeking score. According to the CEO Michael Beygelman, a higher J-score, means a person is more active in their search. This helps recruiters find and target people who are most open to their message.
2) LinkedIn Talent Solutions: Automated candidate search has made recruitment tools like LinkedIn powerful platforms for recruiters. According to a business report, LinkedIn's hiring solutions have gained more traction than its other divisions. Jeff Weiner founded LinkedIn's primary sources of revenue includes ads and marketing, talent solutions and premium account subscriptions, but Talent Solutions contributes more than 65% of its revenues in 2015. To add more teeth to their Talent Solutions divisions, the Microsoft-owned company even acquired a data science jo search startup Bright.com in 2014 that matches candidates to the right job.
According to an industry report, LinkedIn's Talent Solutions group already accounts for the majority of its revenue and recruiters form its biggest group of playing members. LinkedIn's recent AI offerings allow recruiters to match top performer profiles to the database to find others like them. The paper from Austin-based Proactive Talent cites how in the future, LinkedIn would find the right prospective employee, do the initial chat, answers questions and confirm the interest – and finally send the hiring managers three or four top candidates for interviews.
3) Bangalore's Belong.co brings predictive solutions to hiring: Closer home, Bangalore-based AI recruitment startup Belong.co aims to become a "Google for people", co-founder Rishabh Kaul reportedly mentioned. The startup mines social media sites and profiles to drum up the right candidate for the job. The startup claims to be the world's first predictive outbound hiring solution and has garnered a huge client base from Cisco, Amazon, Adobe, Paypal, Boeing, Accenture, Deloitte to Tesco. The startup's outbound hiring solution helps companies hire top talent by putting three things at the core of their recruitment strategy — data-driven intelligence, personalization, and automation. "The solution aggregates and analyzes talent data from over 90 social and professional networks and uses data science and predictive analytics to help companies engage talent most likely to move", Kaul told Analytics India Magazine.
4) Use of Chatbots in initial screening: Today, recruitment firms are leveraging chatbots that perform the twin role of managing candidate relationships in early stages and even performing an initial screening. The use of chatbots is widespread in cases that involve high-volume of recruiting. Case in point – Mya chatbot automates the process from resume screening and decides whether the applicant's resume should be forwarded or rejected. Now, even before the advent of chatbots, there were intelligent tracking systems that asked certain pre-screening questions but Mya performs a more dynamic candidate interview with contextual questions generated in real-time. Her knowledge base grows as she has different experiences with candidates, notes the website.
As projected, programmatic recruitment advertising is fast emerging as a technology which is used by large enterprises to automate a part of recruitment process, which is ripe for automation. In the early hiring cycle, even big teams of recruiters are unable to effectively analyze all the places their ads might appear, find the best placement for the ad, when to place or remove ads and how to adjust them mid- campaign. Programmatic technology has seeped its way into recruitment ads and helps recruiters optimize their ad campaigns by improving outcomes. Hence, ad-placing and management is another area which is ripe for automation.

I gave the woman a brief response from economics and she responded that her Canadian friends were happy with their system so there was no reason for the US not to have something similar. Of course, if we limit our knowledge to just what the woman's friends in Canada say about their system then without a doubt we should rush to the ballot box and vote for the most socialist Democrat candidates we can find. The problem with her logic is that she assumes her personal experience and those of her Canadian friends are all she needs to solve the problem of healthcare.
When I taught economics, I frequently ran into the same attitude in students. Their personal experience didn't match the textbook economics world so the textbook must be wrong. Hayek called that kind of thinking pseudo-reason or rationalism in his last book, The Fatal Conceit. Pseudo-reasoning says that for something to be true, the individual must be able to understand it completely and foresee all of the consequences. In other words, personal experience trumps all other knowledge.
Most people in the West labor to remain ignorant of economics. Jim Wallis, founder of Sojourners, urges his sycophants to abandon the "gospel of scarcity" (economics) and embrace the "gospel of abundance" (socialism). According to Wallis, God created the world with enough wealth so that all would be rich if wealth was evenly distributed. Of course, Wallis is ignorant of economic history in which the world suffered frequent mass starvations from the beginning of history until the advent of capitalism.
But why not have universal free healthcare? The simple answer is that the wealth of the world is limited. Socialists have no problem understanding that the world's physical resources, such as oil and copper, are limited. They continually scream that we're using them up so that future generations won't have any. We create wealth when we extract those resources from the earth and convert them into something people can use, Those goods are wealth, not money. We can print all of the money we want, but it won't create any more resources. The US has a limited amount of wealth regardless of what Wallis thinks and that applies to healthcare.

Risking Reopening
willshoestring	Uncategorized	 August 21, 2020 August 21, 2020 3 Minutes
UMass Student residence workers who demanded safe reopening laid off last minute
By Klara Ingersoll
The University of Massachusetts decided to fire 93% of its Resident Advisors and Peer Mentors just one business day before move-in. The move came after the union was publicly critical of the university's reopening plan, citing risks posed by the coronavirus for student workers and town residents.
When the university announced it was welcoming back 8,000 students to Amherst, town residents and student workers were very concerned about the potential for COVID-19 to spread. Resident Advisors (RA's) and Peer Mentors (PM's) Union called the plan "suicidal," Amherst's town manager Paul Glockeman wrote a scathing open letter, and over 1,000 community members signed a petition warning that large numbers of students returning to Amherst would threaten residents' lives.
The University agreed to scale back the number of returning students and implemented new precautions in its latest reopening plan, including reaching an agreement with the union to provide student residence workers with the option to work remotely, hazard pay, PPE, and ventilation.
Following these agreements, the university turned around and fired 93% of the residence workers. Where there were about 370 RAs and PMs who had expected to work this Fall semester, now there are only 36 students employed with this position on campus. The last minute lay-offs sent shockwaves through the community, as many students were left without employment and some students without housing options for the coming academic year. Students faced housing insecurity for different reasons, such as having immunocompromised family members, lack of the internet access (according to NEPM), or not having a home to return to.
"The university left me hanging on such a short notice. Some students can go back to their parents' places, but I had nowhere else to go," Julia Oktay, a Resident Assistant who lost her job in early August told The Shoestring. Oktay said that she has spoken with other students who share her experience, but that due to the stigma around homelessness, this conversation is not as transparent. "Because we are asked during applications, I know the university knows that many of us self-supporting, independent students rely on the RA income to pay our rents and put food on the table. The university did not acknowledge our situations in their decision to let us all go. It's already such a hard time to find a job, I know that this is affecting many student workers' livelihoods," said Oktay.
Following the widespread last minute lay-offs, student workers rapidly organized a response, putting on their masks and grabbing their megaphones and even tents. Oktay shared her experience and others spoke about the need to ensure all members of the university's community's safety during this pandemic at "Camp New Normal," a student-led protest on University Chancellor Kumble Subaswammy's lawn on August 12th and 13th.
"UMass informed us they will not be honoring this part of our contract, and that no workers deserved hazard pay because the coronavirus is the new normal. We wanted to show Subaswammy that the New Normal means treating workers with dignity and respect. We were met with UMass Police who threatened to issue a trespass order on us, which would ban individual students from campus for two years. UMass really wants to silence student workers. But, we aren't going to stop fighting," said President of the RA/PM Union James Cordero.
Following student actions, the university has since agreed to let former RA's and PM's live on campus for the upcoming year at no cost. The RA / PM Union is in the process of filing a grievance because it believes that UMass violated other parts of their contract, which provide students workers access to alternative work assignments and laid off RAs and PMs full compensation.

Category: Sentence: 40 Years+
Second-Time Killer Murders Again On Day Release
A triple killer has been jailed for a third time for the murder of a pensioner who was stabbed when he went to help his convicted paedophile neighbour who was being robbed in Hertfordshire – experts argue it must not damage the release of life sentence prisoners.
Ian McLoughlin, 55, above, was given life with a minimum of 40 years at the Old Bailey after he admitted killing Graham Buck in Little Gaddesden in July.
Mr Buck, 66, suffered fatal stab wounds when he responded to cries from the home of 86-year-old Francis Cory-Wright in the village near Berkhamsted.
McLoughlin was on day release from prison where he was serving a life term for the murder of Brighton barman Peter Halls, whom he stabbed multiple times in 1992.
He had previously been jailed for the manslaughter of Len Delgatty, 49, in 1984, whom he hit over the head with a hammer after a row, before leaving his body in a cupboard.
Mr Justice Sweeney said that he was barred from passing a whole life term because of a European judgment that those sentences are in breach of human rights.
The judge said: "The implementation of a whole life order within the current legislative framework in this country is in breach at the time of passing of sentence of article three of the European Convention.
"It is not appropriate to impose a whole life term.
"However even for a man of 55 years of age, the minimum term of years must be a very long one indeed."
He read part of the victim impact statement from Mr Buck's wife Karen who said: "To kill him was the most senseless, vicious act of violence.
"His family, friends and I will never be able to make sense of what happened. There was no justifiable reason and we will be left with that thought, and of his pain and suffering, for the rest of our lives."
She said breaking the news of the death to her daughter was "the worst act I have ever had to carry out in my entire life
McLoughlin met Mr Cory-Wright in prison, and turned up at his house on July 13 while on day release from HMP Spring Hill, claiming to need help setting up a charity supporting elderly ex-offenders.
Mr Cory-Wright was jailed for 30 months in 2011 for indecently assaulting a 10-year old boy in the 1970s.
The meeting began pleasantly, but McLoughlin then grabbed the 87-year-old from behind and demanded to know where he kept his "gold and silver".
He tied him to his bed, stuffed silver family heirlooms into a pillowcase and demanded bank cards and pin codes.
Father-of-three Mr Buck, who lived two doors away from Mr Cory-Wright, went to help him after hearing shouting in his front garden.
In police interview, McLoughlin said: "I'm not sorry for what I did to the nonce, but I'm sorry for what I did to the pensioner."
He said he was confronted by Mr Buck as he tried to flee Mr Cory-Wright's house, dragged him back into the kitchen and stabbed him in the neck.
Witnesses described seeing Mr Buck with his throat slashed "wide open", prosecutor Ann Evans said. He died on his front lawn, with his pet dog sitting beside him.
Mr Justice Sweeney said: "The photographs I have seen make it clear that it is no exaggeration to say that the slash was wide enough to put a fist in."
McLoughlin also admitted robbery and was given eight years to run concurrently.
The court heard details of his history of violence. When he killed Mr Delgatty, 49, he hit him over the head with a hammer several times after a row and left his body in a cupboard.
He also tied a towel around his neck to reduce the blood loss and the noise of the blows.
McLoughlin was jailed for 10 years for manslaughter at the Old Bailey, reduced to eight years on appeal.
After his release, he went to live in Brighton, where Mr Halls, 55, offered him work.
McLoughlin said he assumed Mr Halls was gay and thought he might be expected to sleep with him.
Ms Evans said: "The defendant claimed that Mr Halls confessed to liking young boys and … that he took holidays in Morocco for under-age sex."
McLoughlin stabbed Mr Halls several times and had served 21 years behind bars before killing Mr Buck.
Speaking outside the court after sentence, Mr Buck's wife, Karen, said: "Today has brought to a conclusion the first part of a long journey for myself and Graham's family.
"The sentence handed down by Mr Justice Sweeney today reflected the seriousness of the crimes Ian McLaughlin committed.
"However, at the end of the day, it does not change anything. I would once again like to thank everyone who has helped and supported us through the period since Graham's death, especially the police officers, the family liaison officers, and all our friends, neighbours and colleagues.
"Many questions still remain unanswered at this stage, and I await the Ministry of Justice's inquiry into day release of prisoners with interest.
"Graham's death has left a hole in many people's lives. He will be missed but he will not be forgotten."
Mark Leech, editor of Converse the national newspaper for prisoners said the murder of Graham Buck must not be allowed to damage the day release system for life sentence prisoners.
"Risk assessments, which are carried out on every lifer who goes on day release, is not an exact science.
"Of course if prison staff had any idea that murder or robbery was McLoughlin's intention that day he would have been back inside a closed prison pretty much instantly – but McLoughlin's plans were known only to himself.
"McLoughlin's case must not be allowed to damage the very good system of releasing life sentence prisoners on day release which, over 50 years, has proved itself to be a valuable tool in assessing trust and reliability even if on the rare occasions like this when it goes wrong – it goes horrifically wrong."
Drug Gang Jailed For 167 Years
Members of drugs gangs, who worked together to peddle over £1.5m of heroin and cocaine across Lancashire and other parts of the country, have been jailed for a total of 167 years one month.
36 people have now been sentenced as a result of Operation Oak, a covert Lancashire Constabulary Serious and Organised Crime Operation into the activities of criminal gangs operating in Blackburn and Preston, as well as other parts of Cumbria, Merseyside, Berkshire and West Yorkshire.
They were arrested in a series of early morning raids in August and September 2011 after a major police operation involving hundreds of police officers from across the northwest. During the various investigations which followed, over £1.5million worth of drugs were seized by police, along with over £200,000 in cash.
Gang leaders Suhail Vohra, 32, of Charnwood Close, Blackburn, Babar Qasam, 34, of Chestnut Walk, Blackburn; Asrer Khan, 29, of Dove Street, Preston; Neil Scarborough, 32, of Moor Hall St, Preston; Brett McWilliam, 22, of St Andrews Street, Barrow in Furness; Gary Rowlands, 28, of Sloop St, Barrow in Furness; Roman Moscicki, 30 of Adam Close, Slough; Rahman Miah, 29, of Azalea Court, Bradford and Jonathon Nicholls, 31, of Oak Grove, Tarbuck, Liverpool – along with their associates – were all sentenced for supplying class A drugs or money laundering offences.
At a final sentencing hearing at Preston Crown Court on Monday 13 May, Tahier Chand, 34, of Manchester Road, Huddesfield was jailed for five years after pleading guilty to conspiracy to supply heroin. He is the 36th person to be sentenced in connection with Operation Oak.
Details of the full investigation can only now be made public due to reporting restrictions which were lifted following a hearing at Preston Crown Court last week.
Detective Superintendent Lee Halstead, of Lancashire Constabulary's Serious and Organised Crime Unit, said: "Operation Oak has dismantled a network of drugs gangs responsible for the supply of over £1.5million worth of cocaine and heroin across northern England and has resulted in the recovery of huge sums of cash.
"As a result these people, who did not have a legitimate income, led comfortable and in some cases quite affluent lifestyles, acting as negative role models to young people. This was at the expense and misery of other residents in the community, whose lives were blighted by the effects of drug dealing and associated violence in their neighbourhoods.
"This has been a large scale investigation and we have worked closely with officers from our neighbouring forces and the Crown Prosecution Service. Together, our actions have prevented a significantly large amount of drugs from reaching the streets of Lancashire helping to make the county a safer place."
Billboard posters and leaflets will now be used to highlight the sentences to the communities who were affected by the gangs as part of Lancashire Constabulary's Behind Bars campaign.
Det Supt Lee Halstead added: "Our planned 'Behind Bars' campaign should now remind everyone that 167 years in prison is proof that crime certainly does not pay.
"It's incredibly important that people continue to support the police by providing us with information so that we can keep them safe and look for ways to prevent organised crime gangs from operating in the future.
Joanne Cunliffe, Crown Advocate from the CPS North West Complex Casework Unit added: "The fact that 36 individuals have been brought to justice for their involvement in the large scale supply of Class A drugs across the north of England is a testament to the close partnership between the CPS, Lancashire Police, Cumbria Police and other neighbouring forces.
"From the early stages of this investigation, the prosecution team provided guidance and advice to the police and tirelessly worked with them to build a strong case against each defendant.
"As a result we have successfully secured their convictions and dismantled a prominent source of drugs in our region and surrounding areas. The message is clear, we will not tolerate the supply of drugs on our streets and we are wholly committed to prosecuting those responsible."
Anyone with information or concerns can contact police on 101 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
Mark Bridger 'To Die In Jail'…. or will he?
Paedophile Mark Bridger has joined a group of notorious criminals who have been given whole life sentences for their horrific crimes – but commentators suggest that is likely to be quashed by the Court of Appeal .
Bridger, 47, kidnapped five-year-old April Jones, before sexually abusing her, murdering her and then disposing of her body. Her parents Paul, 41, and Coral, 43, are now coming to terms with the fact that Bridger may never reveal what he did with their daughter.
A heartbreaking victim impact statement from April's mother also revealed how she will always "live with the guilt" of letting April, who had cerebral palsy, play out the night Bridger snatched her away from her loving family.
Bridger, a former slaughterhouse worker, was given a whole life sentence by trial judge Mr Justice Griffith Williams after he was convicted by a jury at Mold Crown Court of April's abduction and murder and of perverting the course of justice by unlawfully disposing, destroying or concealing her body. Only 47 other criminals in the UK have been handed such sentences.
Sentencing Bridger, Mr Justice Griffith Williams said: "There is no doubt in my mind that you are a paedophile, who has for some time harboured sexual and morbid fantasies about young girls."
Police believe Bridger dismembered little April's body before dumping the body parts at various locations in the hills, rivers and forests surrounding his home in Cienws, mid-Wales, after traces of her blood were found all over his rented cottage.
In her statement, read to the court by Elwen Evans QC, prosecuting, Coral Jones said: "Words alone cannot describe how we are feeling or how we manage to function on a daily basis, and I would never, ever want any other family to go through what we are and will go through for the rest of our lives."
As the sentence was handed down Bridger, wearing a blue shirt and spotted tie, nodded when he was told he would spend the rest of his life behind bars, but shook his head when the judge called him a paedophile.
In a statement, Ed Beltrami, Chief Crown Prosecutor for CPS Wales, said: "Ever since his first interview with police in October last year, Mark Bridger has relentlessly spun a web of lies and half-truths to try and distance himself from the truly horrific nature of the crime he perpetrated. He has refused to take responsibility for what he did to April and has stopped at nothing to try and cover his tracks."
April's parents said the family was relieved by the verdict. In a statement read outside court, Coral said: "We are relieved that Mark Bridger has today been found guilty of the murder of our beautiful daughter April. April will be forever in our hearts and we are so moved by the overwhelming support we have had from so many people all over the world."
Mark Leech, editor of Converse the national newspaper for prisoners in England and Wales said he wondered how many more victims lay at the door of Mark Bridger.
Mr Leech said: "People just do not wake up at the age of 47 and become child sex killers, there needs to be a serious investigation now into the life of Mark Bridger to discover how many more victims may lay at his door.
"The whole life tariff I suspect may be quashed by the Court of Appeal – particularly when you consider Ian Huntley who murdered two girls and David Bieber who executed one police officer and almost murdered two others are not serving whole life tariffs; Bieber who was initially given a whole life tariff had that was quashed by the Court of Appeal in 2006 and substituted for a sentence of 37 years."
Worcester child killer anonymity lifted
A man who killed three children he was babysitting and impaled them on garden railings has had his anonymity lifted.
David McGreavy, 62, was jailed for life in 1973 for the murders of four-year-old Paul Ralph and his sisters Dawn, two, and nine-month-old Samantha.
He killed them at their home in Gillam Street, Worcester, in April 1973.
In 2009 a judge imposed a ban on naming him during a hearing to protect him from other prisoners. The High Court has now overturned the ban.
In January, McGreavy made a request to be moved to an open prison and his lawyers had argued that would put his name back in the spotlight and his life at risk.
Justice Secretary Chris Grayling and media organisations argued the application was legally flawed and wrongly prevented the public from knowing the full facts of the case.
McGreavy was lodging with the family at the house in Gillam Street when he carried out the killings.
'Monster of Worcester'
Paul had been strangled, Dawn was found with her throat cut, and Samantha died from a compound fracture to the skull.
The killings earned McGreavy the nickname the "Monster of Worcester".
The anonymity ruling was made in 2009 during a hearing when McGreavy unsuccessfully challenged a ruling that he must remain in Category C prison conditions.
On Wednesday, Guy Vassall-Adams, representing the justice secretary and the media organisations objecting to the ban on naming McGreavy, told the court: "The full facts are exceptionally horrific by even the standard of
"The order restricted the media to saying they were 'three sadistic murders' but that doesn't even give you the half of it."
Lord Justice Pitchford, sitting in London with Mr Justice Simon, ruled the anonymity order must be discharged.
The High Court heard David McGreavy had been in prison for 40 years, during which time he had been seriously assaulted in 1975 and 1996 by fellow prisoners.
His counsel Quincy Whitaker told the court naming him would put him in more danger from other prison inmates.
Ms Whitaker told the court McGreavy had previously spent two years in an open prison until "hostile media coverage" led to him being returned to closed conditions "for his own safety".
The court heard McGreavy was first transferred to category D open conditions in 1994 but the transfer to Leyhill Prison in south Gloucestershire broke down after other inmates learned of his offence.
Ms Whitaker said the triple killings were "notorious" but no concerns had been subsequently raised about his behaviour.
Name change possibleThere were "more than reasonable grounds" for a fair parole hearing that could mean him being returned to open conditions, which was a pre-requisite for release from custody, she said.
The judge held out the possibility that in future McGreavy could be allowed a change of name to protect him.
He said McGreavy's ninth parole review was under way and a hearing could be held later this year.
Since 2007 McGreavy has made a number of failed bids to win parole, the court heard.
The Worcester MP at that time, Mike Foster, called for McGreavy to never be allowed back to the city and described the murders as an "absolutely vile crime".
