Q: How to export multiple functions ES6 I'm working in a vue project, I'm very new to vue.
We have a db_handler.js in out /src/utility folder.
It looks like this:
import fakeApiCall from "./mock";
import axios from "axios";
import { DEBUG_MODE, API_ENDPOINT } from "./namespaces";

function fetchData(method, slug, payload) {
  //axios.defaults.headers.withCredentials = true;
  //return (!DEBUG_MODE) ? axios[method](`${API_ENDPOINT}${slug}`, payload) : fakeApiCall(slug);
  return axios[method](`${API_ENDPOINT}${slug}`, payload);

  /*var url = "http://localhost:8080" + slug

  return axios({
    method: method,
    url: url,
    headers: {
        'Authorization': payload
    }
  });*/
}

function sendData(method, slug, payload) {
  axios[method](`${API_ENDPOINT}${slug}`, payload);
}

export default fetchData

What I need to know:
How can I export my sendData()?
They used a short syntax so far because they only exported one function.
How can I export multiple functions? I also want the names to remain "fetchData" and "sendData"
EDIT:
I tried to apply the approaches of Iamhuynq and Bergi, but now something goes south. I am importing the functions first and foremost in
moduleUser.js and authUser.js which reside in /src/store/modules.
The authUser.js is used for the identification of the user, so of course it is used in the login screen. When I now try to login, I get "Type Error: Object undefined". I guess this is because the functions returning the server response are somehow failing or not found.
The codebase connected to this behavior is the Login screen, the db_handler which Ive already shown you and a module called "moduleAuth.js".
First, the login screen looks like this:
<template>

Login

Name:

      <input ref="username" type='text' v-on:keydown.enter="userLogin">

Password:

      <input class="inputbox" ref="password" type='password' v-on:keydown.enter="userLogin">

{{error}}

    <button v-on:click='userLogin'>Login</button>

</template>

moduleAuth.js, from which the AUTH_REQUEST vue-action is coming, looks like this:
import axios from "axios";
import Vue from 'vue';
import Vuex from 'vuex';
import {fetchData, sendData} from "../../utility/db_handler";

import { USER_REQUEST } from "../actions/user";
import { AUTH_REQUEST, AUTH_LOGOUT, AUTH_FAIL, AUTH_SUCCESS } from "../actions/auth";
import { METHOD_POST, JWT } from "../../utility/namespaces";

Vue.use(Vuex);

const storeAuth = {
  state: {
    token: localStorage.getItem(JWT) || '',
    loginState: ''
  },
  getters: {
    isAuthenticated: state => !!state.token,
    getLoginState: state => state.loginState
  },
  mutations: {
    [AUTH_REQUEST]: (state) => {
      state.loginState = 'pending';
    },
    [AUTH_FAIL]: (state) => {
      state.loginState = 'error';
    },
    [AUTH_SUCCESS]: (state, mToken) => {
      state.loginState = '';
      state.token = mToken;
    },
    [AUTH_LOGOUT]: (state) => {
      return new Promise ((resolve, reject) =>{
        state.loginState = '';
        state.token = '';
        localStorage.removeItem(JWT);
        resolve();
        //Catch?
      })
    }
  },
  actions: {
    [AUTH_REQUEST]: ({ commit, dispatch }, uObj) => {
      return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
        commit(AUTH_REQUEST);
        fetchData(METHOD_POST, '/login',{
            username: uObj.username,
            password: uObj.password
          }).then(function (res) {
          commit(AUTH_SUCCESS,res.headers.authorization);
          localStorage.setItem(JWT,res.headers.authorization);
          axios.defaults.headers.common['Authorization'] = res.headers.authorization;
          dispatch(USER_REQUEST);
          resolve(res.data);
        }).catch(function(err) {
          commit(AUTH_FAIL);
          reject(err);
        })
      })
    },
    [AUTH_LOGOUT]: ({ commit}) => {
      commit(AUTH_LOGOUT);
    }
  }
}

export default storeAuth

Now, if just roll back the changes to the export/import sections, everything works. So the problem should definitely be connected to this.

A: you can use export
export function sendData() {...}

and you can import like this
import fetchData, { sendData } from '/src/utility/db_handler.js;'

A: Here my suggestion is, if you are exporting more then one function, you should use export method instead of export default. It will make your code more readable and ll use for future debugging.
export function function1(params) {
 .......
}

export function function2() {
 ......
}

Here there is a two way to import functions

*

*by using import { function1, function2} from "./exportedFunctionFile" make sure you are using same function name as you exported!

*other method is use * as yourVariableName example import * as myFunctions from "./exportedFunctionFile" this would use when you are exporting too many functions now you can use your imported functions as myfunctions.function1()
if you want to export using default key word, export functions as object example export default {function1,function2} and you could use it like import * as myFunctions from "./exportedFunctionFile" which is similar as a second way of importion.
Hope it will Help you

A: export the functions in an object
export default {
    sendData: sendData,
    fetchData: fetchData
}

then to use
import * as DBHandler from '@/src/utility/db_handler'
...
DBHandler.sendData()

A: On the function files
func1(params) {
...
}

func2(params) {
...
}

export default default {
    function1: function1,
    function2: function2
}

On the other file
import * as _ from './module address'

then
_.default.func1.call(args)
_.default.func2.call(args)

National Development Fuelled by A Thriving Tourism Industry »
National Development Fuelled by A Thriving Tourism Industry
By Khin Maung (Hotels/Tourism)
A man by nature is a social animal and prefers living in a community to live in solitude. As an escape from stress encountered during daily struggles at work, the emotional strain of being in the working environment, and weariness born out of an uneasy employer-employee relationship at workplaces, we tend to go on vacation to places all over Myanmar during holidays or when we want to relieve work fatigue.
Some of the tours enticing those who travel the country are Myitsone in Kachin, Moe Bye dam in Shan, Zwekapin in Karen, Reed Lake in Chin, Kyaikhtiyo in Mon, MraukU in Rakhine, and Inle Lake in Shan. They would also include pilgrimage tours to such sacred pagodas as Shwedagon Pagoda in Yangon, Shwemawdaw Pagoda in Bago, Myathalun Pagoda in Magway, Sun U Ponnyashin Pagoda in Sagaing, Maha Myat Muni Pagoda in Mandalay, Dawei Shin Koe Shin Pagodas in Tanintharyi, Mawtinzun in Ayeyawady, and also recreational trips to such places as Indawgyi Lake in Kachin, Myeik Archipelago in Taninthayi, Ayeyawady Ngwesaung, Chaung Thar, and Ngapali in Rakhine.
As per their religious beliefs, these work-weary people would take short trips to destinations in adjacent towns and cities or longer tours, either in groups or individually, as a temporary getaway from their jobs to escape the workplaces' emotional strain to refresh their tired hearts.
During these times, families, relatives, employees from government or private organizations, and people all over the world find themselves under the threat of Covid-19 disease: having to spend all day every day stuck in their homes all year round has led to hinder all-round development in economy, education, social affairs and politics. Facing difficulties in such daily social affairs as work opportunities, sources of income and business dealings, people lost the joy, freedom and peace they previously enjoyed, grew distrustful, hostile and impatient towards each other. Days turned to months and then into a year since animosity has taken the place of serenity in our daily lives: a cure has yet to be found; the void remains unfilled, and there is no escape in sight to a relaxed state of mind. With religious doctrines, all but forgotten, strained relationships, tension, and discord become the norm in our social life. As such, everyone — young and old — long to leave behind these times where we get through every day full of worry and misery.
Hotels, guesthouses, restaurants, tour guides, and people who make their living from services such as agriculture, livestock farming or meat shop businesses in tourist destinations, those who are in the land, water or air transport services for tourists, machinery, and other associated businesses are crucial factors in Myanmar tourism industry. These people, machines, meals and vegetable products, roads and bridges, and so on — which naturally shall be called infrastructural elements — and the people depending on them such as business owners, workers, and their families, all together make up quite a great percentage of the nation's population undeniably being connected to the tourism industry. This enormous body of animate beings and inanimate objects is caught in exhaustion, with no way of escaping, and find themselves in a situation where it is difficult just to survive.
In search for a getaway with the recreation of a free and fair social environment in mind, one could go the way of obtaining the latest Covid-19 treatment drugs to help win the fight against the pandemic; visiting the Coronavirus-free regions; living with Covid-19 while totally mindful of its dangers and properly following the rules in place; or, just going on vacations come what may with no restraints, focusing solely on unwinding oneself. Among these many ways of escaping to relaxation, however, the route chosen should be that which is best for the people and their community. It is high time we started taking cautious, measured steps towards breathing life back into the tourism industry as soon as possible.
In preparation for kick-starting touring businesses, Covid-19 Relief Package (1) Tourism 101 Refresher Training Courses for the lower class people including those who make their living from providing transport services by motorboats, horse-carts, slow-moving vehicles, craftsmen, hawkers, and tray-vendors, all of whom are a part of the tourism industry in all states and regions where tourism business have been hit hard by Covid-19 and economy is in decline; and Covid-19 Relief Package (2) Hotel Services Refresher Training Courses for the hotel staff from respective Hotel Zones have been delivered, under the guidance of the Ministry of Hotels and Tourism, the supervision of Directorate of Hotels and Tourism, and the management of the departments concerned, with collaborated contribution from Myanmar Tour Guides Association, Myanmar Hotelier Association and Myanmar Hospitality Professionals Association. Likewise, ASEAN Standard Tour Guide Upgrading Course for the National Tour Guide training course has been launched as per the Covid-19 Relief Package (3).
Covid-19 Safe Service Master Trainer (TOT) courses have been opened in all states and divisions to produce trainers capable of delivering the required training, and evaluators, in implementing the Enchanting Myanmar Health and Protocol program for the post-Covid-19 resumption of the tourism industry. Trainers who have finished this TOT course have set up Replication Courses on Hazard Prevention in seven industries which are hotel and guesthouse businesses, restaurants, transport businesses, tour companies, tour guides, travel destinations and tourist attractions souvenir shops in concerned all states and divisions. A programme was implemented, during the launch of these courses, to provide stipends to instructors and students based on the number of hours spent teaching and studying respectively.
With participation from the Ministry of Health and Sports and the Hotels and Tourism associations, support from partner organizations, and the training engaged by trainers who have finished the Covid-19 Safe Service Master Trainer and Inspector Training courses, the Ministry is launching online educational programmes to spread knowledge about Hazard Prevention skills and the Dos and Don'ts that will be necessary when resuming the tourism industry and its associated businesses in the post-Covid-19 era.
In making a united effort with participation, collective analytical consultation and supervision from professionals from concerned fields, and with contributions of business owners and employees, we would need to work attentively and sensibly under the slogan "A rule followed is a danger avoided", no matter what obstacle stands in the way, to revive our tourism industry. As we start these businesses, instead of letting the momentum immediately die out by overestimating our capabilities, we should have discussions and manage our efforts to minimize any disasters while launching these businesses. It should be a collaborative effort from all parties involved.
Since human beings who make their living from tourism, such as business owners, workers, and inanimate objects such as machinery, are profoundly awaiting new dawn when the tourism industry will again come to life, it is hereby advised to operate coordination and as per the Covid-19 regulations that are currently in place to bring about the revival of the tourism industry, so that we could use tourism to alleviate some difficulties faced by the local community, to work towards enlivening the slogan "Tourism for People, Tourism for Peace, Tourism for Development", for the purpose of utilizing tourism to strengthen the nation and to achieve national development.

4 Queer Creators Explain How LGBTQ+ Representation Evolved in the 2010s
Ryan O'Connell, Tan France, Tracy Gilchrist, and Desiree Akhavan tell us how the 2010s became the queerest decade ever on screen.
By Jill Gutowitz

The 2010s saw leaps of progress when it comes to LGBTQ+ rights and cultural acceptance, but when it comes to queer media representation, it feels like we're leaving this decade light years ahead of where we entered it. In 2010, salacious stories about queer people were still routinely seen in tabloids and on TV. Today, LGBTQ+ people are heralded for being themselves, and our stories are being normalized and told with a broader range of diversity and experiences than ever before.
That's thanks in part to the fact that in the 2010s, queer people saw themselves and their stories on screen more than ever before. And queerness wasn't just celebrated (and, you know, legalized), it was also rewarded. From queer female roles winning an Oscar (thanks, Olivia Colman — gay rights!), to the expansion of diverse voices on screen and behind the camera, to a Queer Eye reboot, it seems every corner of entertainment experienced groundbreaking metamorphosis: Film, scripted television, reality TV, major studio comedy, and even queer entertainment journalism. As a retrospective, I spoke with creators, TV stars, filmmakers, and queer media moguls who both witnessed this change and ushered it in themselves, to comment on the past decade of on-screen queerness and how it changed their lives.
Ryan O'Connell
Creator and star of Special
Please Like Me by Josh Thomas — he's not like a bombshell, he's not a gay with abs, he's kind of neurotic — that was hugely informative for me. Like, he doesn't need to have abs for his story to matter. That was really big for me. Ryan Murphy, he's really championed voices that are othered by society. Popular changed my life. I thought The Assassination of Gianni Versace was fucking incredible.
But in 2016, there was that movie Me Without You about a quadriplegic. Literally, at the end of the movie, he's like, "I want to kill myself," and everyone's like, "honestly, I totally get it. Bye!" And the fucking movie ends with him killing himself, and they're like, "yay, he finally actually killed himself!" I was like, not only do our stories not get told, but when they do, it's: "We understand that your life isn't worth living, we support you in dying." It's so fucked up.
We have so little opportunity to get our stories told that when they are told, and that's the one that gets chosen, it speaks volumes about where we are in the culture around disability. And luckily, when that came out, I was in a much healthier relationship with myself, so I wasn't like, "Ahh! I need to die!" But imagine being younger and more impressionable. Your self-esteem is wrapped up in the messages that you receive from media at a young age. That's how you make sense of the world. It creates your perception, and if you don't see yourself in the conversation at all, that really sends a big message saying, "your existence doesn't have value."
I think Special only exists because we're at a point in our culture where we're realizing that we need diverse voices, and that people have been silenced for so long and they finally deserve a platform. I really feel like, more than anything, Special is indebted to where we're at in the cultural moment more than any other show. I'm indebted to the zeitgeist saying, "your story does have value, it does matter," when even three years ago, it was too scary.
I hope that we're done doing "the firsts." I hope that things are no longer seen as "groundbreaking." Special is often seen as "groundbreaking," and I'm very appreciative, but I want to get to a place where it's not.
Fashion designer, TV personality from Queer Eye
I think the original Queer Eye, Queer as Folk, Will & Grace did a great job — at that time, they did all they could do. What Caucasian queer people did over the last 15 years was pioneering and revolutionary, and it paved the way for our community. However, if you're asking more specifically if I felt represented, the answer is no, I can't honestly say yes to that. There were a few people of color, mostly black queer people on TV or in movies, but they were so few and far between, and definitely not South Asian people or brown people who were also queer.
The reason I took the [Queer Eye] audition is because my husband reminded me that I had been moaning for the 9 years we'd been together, "Where are my people on TV?" They weren't there. So, he said, you get to be that person that you so desperately wanted as a child: a gay, South Asian immigrant, and you get to be that potentially for kids. A week later, I got the job.
Our show pushes so much positivity, so much love, so much inclusion. Do I believe that our show in particular represents every gamut of our queer community? 100% no, that's basically impossible. But what I think a reality show can do, which our showrunners and executive producers at Netflix do a really good job of, is highlighting as many queer stories as we can within the timeframe we have. I think reality TV can do a wonderful job of representing a true and honest depiction of the country where we live, or the world. I do still worry that there's so much pressure on reality TV to represent. I think there should be equal expectation from scripted shows to represent in a more honest way, and by that I mean no more caricatures. I don't need another caricature of a gay person.
My hope for the future is that when I read an article or a review on entertainment and there's a queer person represented, that it's completely unnecessary to mention that they're queer, that it's unnecessary to mention their gender, or that it's an LGBTQ+ show. I long for a day when even Queer Eye is completely unnecessary. I want to get to a point where a show's a show. A story's a story.
Tracy Gilchrist
Feminism Editor at The Advocate
When we entered the decade, except for Glee, which was by out producer Ryan Murphy and featured several queer storylines, we had scattered LGBTQ+ characters on TV in shows like Pretty Little Liars (I should note that the creators of that series were gay), Grey's Anatomy, and The Good Wife. Transparent, Vida, and Pose were game-changers. Transparent's casting of Tambor was problematic from the outset, but it was also the first show to cast several trans actresses and it also leaned into the Jewish American experience like no other show.
Vida, from a queer Latinx showrunner, with a primarily queer, female Latinx writers' room telling stories of sisterhood, LGBTQ+ lives, and gentrification with humor and heart is one of the most thrilling additions to TV ever. And Pose, with the largest cast of trans women ever, stories written by and about trans women, and its focus on remembering and paying homage to those lost to HIV/AIDS is vital TV. Also notable is the move toward intersectionality, and no TV series did more for telling a diverse array of stories than Orange Is the New Black. It was also the vehicle that led to Laverne Cox becoming the first trans actress to be nominated for an Emmy award.
In terms of film, the decade saw the rise of prestige queer cinema including Blue Is The Warmest Color (for better or worse) and moving on to Carol, Moonlight, Call Me By Your Name, A Fantastic Woman, Disobedience, The Favourite, Pain and Glory, and Portrait of a Lady on Fire. Personally, Carol was a turning point for me in terms seeing a love story between women with a deeply queer pedigree (considering the source material was written by a queer woman and the film was written by a lesbian, directed by a gay man, and costarring a queer woman —Sarah Paulson) that was also pristinely rendered.
It seems to me that specific jobs in queer media are dwindling while the ability to cover queer representation has increased. I hope there's a future in queer media. I've been in it for 20 years and I like to think my experience as a queer woman coming out when there was scant representation through to this exciting time of proliferation of queer content uniquely qualifies me to chronicle our history.
Ten years ago, we were happy to have representation. With the increase in queer visibility comes the ability to be more critical of projects. The hot take that goes, "Am I the only lesbian/gay man/queer person who didn't like [insert name of queer project here]?" has become prevalent. I don't think that's a great thing, especially considering that criticizing these projects often means that we're coming down on queer artists. (Obviously, if a project is problematic, it should be criticized). I'd like to see more support for queer projects in general even if they aren't to our personal taste.
Desiree Akhavan
Filmmaker and creator of The Bisexual
How I learned about sex was through film. How I learned about, like, friendship was through any film and TV. I didn't really have friends, so all the characters I saw were my friends and my insight into what it would look like to not be alone anymore. I was not only Iranian, I was gay. I was just uncool in every sense of the word, but also I was in spaces that were very white and had a really specific code of conduct. And when you didn't fit into that archetype then you just were an outsider. I was a real outsider.
My perspective is so fucked now that I make things myself. It's hard to have an idea of what touches people. You become so biased. I remember things touching me before I made films, like when I saw High Art and I remember that being so powerful. But at the end of the day, I'll always be a fan of beautiful cinema. I think the coolest shit we're seeing is coming out of France. 120 Beats per Minute, that was extraordinary. Portrait of a Lady on Fire.
I'm a filmmaker, and I have a very specific voice and I'm fighting and hustling to have my voice heard. And for this decade, fuck, I was lucky. I'm grateful and I'm lucky and I took up a lot of space considering how little space I was given in the mainstream and in my personal life growing up. I'm really still paying my dues though, and I'm hopeful that in the next decade and the decade after that, I can elbow out a little more space for myself to make things that are palatable to a larger audience.
It's a slow progression and I think there's been a lot of progress. I think that there have been a lot of movies that were very powerful, like Love, Simon. I think it takes a Love, Simon to elbow out a space so that the more risky, more intellectual, more playing with craft-style films, like Portrait of a Lady on Fire. But the Love, Simons will scream the loudest until the next one can come. It'd be great to have a gay Heathers, it would be great to have something that was pushing the envelope and saying something new and saying something fresh.
I don't have an agenda or a personal mission. What I hope is that queer films aren't ghettoized in their corner. When I think about cinema, I would love for [queer films] to enter the mainstream, those narratives can be just as well respected and complicated as mainstream narratives or mainstream love stories.

Anti-jihad transit ad pulled after request from James Foley's family
Morgan Winsor, Kristina Sgueglia, and Rosa Flores, CNN
Updated 9:05 AM EDT, Tue September 30, 2014
Anti-Islam ads hit New York streets
"IT'S NOT ISLAMOPHOBIA... IT'S ISLAMOREALISM," ad says
It shows photo of Foley just before he was beheaded
Creators say they are removing ad only because of Foley family request
New York CNN —
A transit advertisement depicting deceased American journalist James Foley moments before he was beheaded by ISIS was pulled from circulation in New York and San Francisco, according to the attorney representing the organization behind the ads, American Freedom Defense Initiative.
The ad, which read in part, "IT'S NOT ISLAMOPHOBIA… IT'S ISLAMOREALISM," was intended to launch Monday, appearing on buses and at the entrance of subway stops.
David Yerushalmi, the attorney representing the president of American Freedom Defense Initiative, Pamela Geller, said he sent a letter to the Foley family attorney on behalf of his client Sunday in response to a letter from the Foleys' attorney requesting the ad be pulled.
Foley disappeared on November 22, 2012, in northwest Syria, near the border with Turkey. At the time of his disappearance, he was working for the U.S.-based online news outlet GlobalPost. The video of his beheading was posted to YouTube on August 19.
Yerushalmi's letter reads in part: "As a mother, and one who still feels the pain of the hideous murders of many in her extended family by the Nazis, and with friends in Israel brutally affected by Islamic terrorism as a constant of daily life, Ms. Geller understands and feels intimately the pain your clients are suffering. Neither she nor AFDI wish to add to that pain, even if only tangentially."

Diane Foley: Jim was so loved
idesk.robertson.fbi.isis.possible.identification_00002315.jpg
Foley tape: U.S. may have jihadi ID
The letter goes on: "For this reason, and this reason alone, my clients have reached out as early as this morning to the New York and San Francisco transit authorities' respective advertising agents to pull the displays depicting the captive Mr. Foley prior to his beheading."
Yerushalmi said the ad was pulled "as a matter of compassion for the family," but the rest would remain in circulation.
Geller, who is behind the campaign, said the ad featuring Foley is speaking out against jihad terror.
"I am thinking of the family. I'm thinking of the next victim as well," Geller told CNN's Rosa Flores on Wednesday. "But frankly, I think that that ad does a service to the family to expose the ideology that incites this kind of barbarity."
Diane Foley, James Foley's mother, said in an email Monday that her family received the letter and "greatly appreciate the compassionate response."
Foley's mother 'appalled' by U.S. government handling of case
Ibrahim Hooper, the national communications director for Council on American-Islamic Relations, told Flores, "These ads are targeted mainly at people who are not Muslims trying to get them to hate Islam and be hostile to Americans Muslims.
Despite criticism, Geller said her message is not anti-Muslim, it's anti-jihad.
"There is nothing in my ads that say Muslim. We oppose jihad, and the idea that it's anti-Muslim, in my opinion, is a way of detracting from the message," Geller said Wednesday.
One of the ads in circulation reads: "Islamic Jew-hatred: It's in the Quran. Stop the hate."
Geller said she believes the Quran ignites jihad.
"There are numerous, numerous, verses … calling for the annihilation of the nonbeliever. Smite them at their necks. … Every action is accompanied by an Islamic prayer," she said.
Peter Awn, a religion professor at Columbia University, said, "to say that the Quran in and of itself is really what guides the choices Muslims make is really naive."
This is not the first time Geller has rattled emotions with edgy campaigns. In 2012, when the metropolitan transportation authority rejected one of her ads, Geller took her message to federal court and won. The 2012 ad read: "In any war between the civilized man and the savage, support the civilized man. Support Israel. Defeat Jihad."
All the ads launched Monday in New York have a disclaimer that reads: "The display of this advertisement does not imply MTA's endorsement of any views expressed."

Are licenses required under Common Law of England
Read the excerpt below from the Imperial Laws of England, which are still in force, and cannot be repealed without a referendum.
Does this conflict with state legislation?
See (Constitution Section 109 – Inconsistency of laws).
In the early days driving licenses were issued to drivers for commercial purposes (see Sect 107 of the Commonwealth Constitution, outlined within p936 of the Annotated Constitution by Quick and Garran (1901) e.g. goods or passenger transportation, private people aren't required to have a license for private travel. Section 92 of the Constitution grants us free travel within the Commonwealth.
The 1911 and 1913 referendums in regards to nationalising Monopolies were not carried.
The Statute of Monopolies 1623 prohibits monopolies, therefore why do corporations like VicRoads have a monopoly on the roads?
Refer to Northern Territory v Collins [2008] HCA 49 (16 Oct 2008), Patents case.
Imperial Acts Application Act 1980 – SECT 8
Division 4-Monopolies
[1623-4] 21 or 21 and 22 James I c. III ss 1, 6
An Act concerning monopolies and dispensations with penal laws and the
forfeiture thereof.
1. (1) Forasmuch as your most excellent Majesty, in your royal judgment, and
of your blessed disposition to the weal and quiet of your subjects, did in the year of our Lord God one thousand six hundred and ten, publish in print to the whole realm, and to all posterity, That all grants and monopolies, and of the benefit of any penal laws or of power to dispense with the law, or to compound for the forfeiture, are contrary to your Majesty's laws, which your Majesty's declaration is truly consonant and agreeable to the ancient and fundamental laws of this your realm.
(2) And whereas your Majesty was further graciously pleased, expressly to
command, that no suitor should presume to move your Majesty for matters of
that nature.
(3) Yet nevertheless upon misinformations, and untrue pretences of public
good, many such grants have been unduly obtained, and unlawfully put in
execution, to the great grievance and inconvenience of your Majesty's
subjects, contrary to the laws of this your realm, and contrary to your
Majesty's most royal and blessed intention to published as aforesaid.
(4) For avoiding whereof, and preventing of the like in time to come, may it
please your excellent Majesty, at the humble suit of the lords spiritual and
temporal, and the commons, in this present parliament assembled, That it may
be declared and enacted.
(5) And be it declared and enacted by authority of the present parliament,
That all monopolies, and all commissions, grants, licences, charters and
letters patents heretofore made or granted, or hereafter to be made or
granted, to any person or persons, bodies politick or corporate whatsoever, of or for the sole buying, selling, making, working or using of any thing within this realm, or the dominion of Wales.
(6) Or of any other monopolies, or of power, liberty to faculty, to dispense
with any others, or to give licence or toleration to do, use or exercise any
thing against the tenor or purport of any law or statute.
(7) Or to give or make any warrant for any such dispensation, licence or
toleration to be had or made; or to agree or compound with any others for any
penalty or forfeitures limited by any statute; or of any grant or promise of
the benefit, profit or commodity of any forfeiture, penalty or sum of money,
that is or shall be due by any statute, before judgement thereupon had.
(8) And all proclamations, inhibitions, restraints, warrants of assistance,
and all other matters and things whatsoever, any way tending to the
instituting, erecting, strengthening, furthering or countenancing of the same
or any of them.
(9) Are altogether contrary to the laws of this realm, and so are and shall be utterly void and of none effect, and in no wise to be put in use or execution.
6. Provided also, and be it declared and enacted, That any declaration before
mentioned shall not extend to any letters patents and grants of privilege for
the term of fourteen years or under, hereafter to be made, of the sole working or making of any manner of new manufactures within this realm, to the true and first inventor and inventors of such manufactures, which others at the time of making such letters patents and grants shall not use, so as also they be not contrary to the law, nor mischievous to the state, by raising prices of commodities at home, or hurt of trade, or generally inconvenient: The said fourteen years to be accounted from the date of the first letters patents, or grant of such privilege hereafter to be made, but that the same shall be of such force as they should be, if this act had never been made, and of none other.

Read the excerpts from the Imperial laws of England that are still in force in Australia and cannot be repealed without a referendum.
It states that there are instances where fines are considered void and unlawful, when they are issued without a conviction (ie. court case, or trial by jury). Does this conflict with state legislation?
See (Constitution Section 109 – Inconsistency of laws)
The legislation below simply states that you can only be fined after a valid court conviction.
Also bear in mind that courts must comply with Chapter 3 of Australia's Constitution (plurality of judges and a jury of your peers, for the indictment of any offence).
Note that the Infringement's Court is not a constitutionally recognised court, as it is a computer.
PART II TRANSCRIBED ENACTMENTS Transcribed enactments
8. Transcribed enactments
[1688] I William and Mary Sess. II (Bill of Rights) c. II
12. That all grants and promises of fines and forfeitures of particular persons
before conviction, are illegal and void.
Please find in the link below a full copy of the Bill of Rights (1689).
http://www.clrg.info/wp-content/uploads/Bill-of-Rights-Act-1689-UK-from-WA-Premier-and-Cabinet-site.pdf
See also the Port of Portland v State of Victoria High Court case, where WA Attorney General confirmed the Bill of Rights, on page 5. Whereas all 7 justices confirmed the Bill of Rights Act (1688), and Victoria's Imperial Act Application Act (1980) on page 6 paragraph 13.
Port of Portland Pty Ltd v Victoria [2010] HCA 44 (8 December 2010)
Also regarding any forfeiture of property refer to Attorney-General [NT] v Emmerson [2014] HCA 13 (10 April 2014), drug case, where only a court of competent jurisdiction can forfeit property.
So, can these binding High Court cases relate to seizure of animals, livestock or motor vehicles under any Act, regulation, rule or alleged by-laws?

Bill Shorten's $14 Billion tax grab
RETIREES who earn more than $75,000 from their super and working-age adults on more than $250,000 will be targeted by Bill Shorten in a new tax plan if Labor wins the next election.
In the second major Budget policy announced by Labor, the Opposition Leader will today outline plans to save about $14 billion over the next decade by squeezing more tax out of wealthy retirees and the super contributions of the rich.
A total of 170,000 Australians would be hit by the proposals, which Labor claims would save $1.9 billion over the four years from the next election and $14.3 billion over 10 years.
Mr Shorten will argue that tax perks are unsustainable and give a disproportionate benefit to the rich.
"These changes are good for the future integrity of Australia's pensions and superannuation system," he said.
"These changes are all about putting fairness back into the system."
Opposition Leader Bill Shorten says the tax proposal promoted fairness and integrity. PIC: Mike Dugdale Source: News Corp Australia
Superannuation income for most people over 60 is tax-free but, under Labor's plan, earnings above $75,000 a year would be hit with a 15 per cent tax.
This would affect about 60,000 retirees who have super accounts with balances above $1.5 million.
Labor tried to impose a tax on super earnings of more than $100,000 a year in its last Budget in 2013 but this was opposed by the Coalition and legislation did not pass Parliament.
The proposed tax would come in at a lower level but would not affect full or part pensioners because the $75,000 level was above the pension income test.
In the second part of his planned tax grab, Mr Shorten will vow to cut the existing level for concessions on super contributions from $300,000 to $250,000.
This would mean that people who earn more than $250,000 would see the tax on their super contributions rise from 15 per cent to 30 per cent.
About 110,000 Australians who earn more than $250,000 would be stung by the proposal.

Another criminal in office.
These people are literally in office unlawfully, and should be charged for (alleged) treason.
This is something the corproate media does not want to expose?
It was revealed by the mainstream media that in Tasmania over the past 30 years the judiciary was in office unlawfully, therefore making any ruling UNLAWFUL, and not requiring it to be adhered to.

Grieving parents of Jessica Cleland call for cyber bullying crackdown after their daughter was bullied to death
A family portrait photo of Jessica Cleland.
THE heartbroken parents of a teen they say was bullied to death are furious that her tormentors remain unpunished.
Grieving Michael and Jane Cleland are angry that the two teenage boys who tormented their 19-year-old daughter have not been charged or even questioned by police.
As the first anniversary of Jessica taking her own life approaches, her devastated family have called on Victoria's Government and police to treat cyber bullying more seriously.
In Facebook messages the vivacious, sensitive Jessica was called a "f...ing sook" and even more offensive terms, and was told she was hated by those she considered friends.
She was bombarded with nasty messages across social media platforms the night before she took her own life.
EDITORIAL: FROM ONLINE TAUNTS TO TRAGEDY
Coroner Jacqui Hawkins said in her report in October: "The circumstances of Jessica's death highlight the important role that social media and other communication technologies can play in young people's lives. "
Ms Hawkins found that online bullying was particularly traumatic as there was no escaping it.
"I am satisfied that Facebook and text messaging were problematic for Jessica because easy access to the internet on her phone meant that she was exposed to potentially upsetting communications 24 hours a day ... online chat and SMS create an environment where it is easier for individuals to say hateful and hurtful things without facing the immediate consequences."
Jessica's older sister, Amy, said: "You could tell when they were messaging her because she would become really withdrawn."
The Clelands feel that they have been let down by the system and are particularly disappointed with the police's failure to fully investigate the online bullying that led to Jessica taking her own life.
"Jess meant a lot to us; this has turned our family upside down," Mr Cleland said.
"For them to not do anything is like Jess meant nothing to anyone .
"What we would like to see happen is that if someone is cyber bullying somebody and they cause something like this, then they should be held accountable for it."
Jess's last photo pasted on facebook the night before. Picture: Jay Town
Mrs Cleland said the bullies needed to appreciate their actions could have fatal consequences. She likened cyber bullying to culpable driving.
"If you accidentally hit someone in your car you can get manslaughter," she said.
"What's the difference if you bully someone and cause them to take their own life?
"They keep saying they're going to have a big push on cyber bullying and try to knock it on the head, but it seems like it's too much hard work."
Family and friends said Jessica was a happy, outgoing young woman who had not shown signs of depression nor mental illness before she was bullied by two former friends.
They said the Kilmore teenager was excited about a new job working with horses during her gap year.
But her demeanour changed dramatically when two former friends started abusing her online through sites including Facebook and Snapchat.
The parents have told the Herald Sun the bullying and "mind games" caused Jessica to withdraw from her circle of friends — even refusing to confide in her older sister.
On Easter Saturday last year Jessica told her mum she was going for a run on land next to their property.
Later that morning a worried Amy called her parents after being made aware of an Instagram picture Jessica had posted with the caption: "I love this place and I am never going to leave."
The spot where that photo was taken is where Michael discovered his daughter's body. She was cold to the touch and it was too late to save her.
Despite the coroner's report referring to the bullying as a precipitating factor in her decision to end her life, there have been no charges and no inquest.
The family hope some good can come from their terrible loss and that authorities start treating cyber bullying as seriously as other forms of bullying.
"Social media is only going to get bigger and bigger, and this problem is going to get worse if something isn't done about it, if we don't get on top of it now," Amy said.
"We are hoping that something like this can't happen again and maybe prevent someone else from going through it.
"Bullies have got to be accountable for their actions."
Close friend Sally Kurzke said Jessica was a fiercely loyal and sensitive friend.
"You could tell that it (the bullying) hurt her," she said.
"If you attacked her she wouldn't fight you back, she was so concerned about what other people thought."
Grieving parents Jane and Michael Cleland with Jess's sister Amy (left) and her best friend Sally (right) holding a photo of Jess. Picture: Jay Town
Cyber bullying expert and former police officer Susan McLean said Victoria Police's failure to seize all of Jessica's mobile devices would have deeply compromised the investigation into the teenager's death.
"It's a dereliction of duty; we need police members to pull their fingers out and investigate cyber bullying properly," she said.
"We've got good laws, they're just not well applied.
"The police should have seized all her devices and had them forensically examined."
Ms McLean was also critical of the police's failure to seek a warrant and compel Snapchat and Facebook to produce all communication, including deleted messages.
She also believed that the police erred in not interviewing the two teenage tormentors named in the coroner's report.
"The family have every right to be upset; this was a suicide and police need to investigate everything," Ms McLean said.
"They must take statements from anyone relevant to the case."
Victoria Police refused to say if the two teen males had been interviewed or whether police would reinvestigate the case.
"It is not appropriate for police to detail every step of the investigative process," a police spokesman said.
"However, the brief of evidence, once completed, was handed to the coroner in order to assist with the investigation."

This is how the law is set up in Australia by the (corrupt?) law makers.
You can get away with bullying someone to the point where they commit suicide, and not even get questioned by police.
Looks like it's open slather on the weak..
Thank you Australian law makers.

Democrat lawmaker proposes euthanizing the disabled
Under UN Agenda 21 the disabled and elderly become useless eaters.
Democrat lawmaker proposes euthanizing the disabled (Video) | Washington Weekly News
New Hampshire state Rep. Michael Cahill thinks if his Republican colleagues are unwilling to raise taxes, the state should consider offing the liabilities in society.
"Since we are refusing to raise revenues to fund needed programs, to fund services to disabled, for example, have you looked at euthanasia?" asked Cahill, a Democrat, during a legislative debate on the budget Wednesday.
House Speaker Shawn Jasper quickly called Cahill out of order and called his comments "inappropriate."
Senate President Chuck Morse says any new taxes are completely off the table — a stance progressives, of course, don't like.
"It's not often that all of my colleagues in the Senate can agree upon one thing, but today I think we can all agree that we must set aside this reckless Republican budget that just came over from the House," Democrat Andrew Hosmer tells New Hampshire Public Radio.
Meanwhile, Cahill blamed his emotions for his outburst suggesting the state kill the disabled.
washingtonweeklynews.com 6 Apr 2015
So one of the questions that should also be raised, considering that Henry Kissinger is decrepit and in a wheelchair, should HE also be euthanised?
On the right hand column, see poll question on whether you think Henry Kissinger should be euthanaised?

SOUTH YARMOUTH — After a series of hearings on the widely debated issue, members of the board of health will vote on fluoridating the town's water supply at their meeting at 3 p.m. today.
"We have really bent over backward to be fair and let everyone have their opinion," said Dr. Benjamin Gordon, the board's chairman. "Now it's time for us to discuss it."
Among the arguments in favor of fluoridation, which state health officials recommend, is the dental benefit for children.
"It's a step in the right direction," said Dr. Kenneth Colmer of South Yarmouth, a pediatrician and the Dennis-Yarmouth school district's physician.
On the other side, some residents hesitate about adding elements to their water.
"I just can't imagine putting something in perfectly good water," said Richard Copley of West Yarmouth. "Why fix something that isn't broken?"
If fluoridation is approved by the five-member board, an immediate 90-day waiting period will begin. A petition with signatures of 10 percent of the town's registered voters gathered during the waiting period would send the decision to a public referendum.
No towns on Cape Cod currently have fluoridated water systems.


Abstract: LOINC (Logical Observation Identifiers Names and Codes) is one of the standardized health ontologies that is widely used by practitioners in the health sector. Like other ontologies in health field, LOINC evolves. This research focuses on representing formally the conceptual changes in LOINC. Four steps are taken to achieve this goal. First, the release of LOINC is studied to get an overview of the changes in LOINC. Secondly, the change operations that occur in LOINC are classified. Third, the changes are represented formally by considering the need to keep the history of changes in concepts. Finally, a few algorithms are developed to identify changes that occur between two releases of LOINC. The evaluation shows that the algorithms are able to identify change operations in LOINC with 100% of success rate. With a formal representation of changes that occur in LOINC, it is expected that adjustments to applications that use LOINC can be performed more straightforward. The history of reference to concepts in LOINC can also be traced back so that information about the changes on the reference can be obtained easily.

Quadrant MSL's report deepens industry insight
By Margaret Mwantok
Uche Ajene-Ayere
One of Nigeria's strategic communications and public relations consultancy outlets, Quadrant MSL, an operating company of the Insight Redefini and member of the Publicis Groupe, has unveiled the maiden edition of its PR Intelligence Report, titled 'A Quadrant MSL Review of the Financial Services Industry: Banking Sector'.
The report, which covers the last quarter of 2018, focuses on the ways in which banks engaged newspapers to communicate with various audiences and stakeholders was recently unveiled to newsmen at the company's office in Lagos.
Managing Consultant, Quadrant MSL, Uche Ajene-Ayere said that the maiden edition paid attention to the financial services industry, specifically the banking sector, as it would help communications and marketing executives across industries make informed and data driven decisions.
She said, "the consultancy's progression to strategic communications has come naturally because of the noticeable dynamism in the public relations industry. The public relations industry has come under strong disruptions with ever evolving consumer habits, media formats and consumption patterns, which in turn have impacted clients demands and expectations."
Ajene-Ayere noted that the importance of traditional media couldn't be overemphasised. While its been argued that the country's data costs are among Africa's most affordable, the economic disenfranchisement of millions of Nigerians means that many consumers would be best reached, offline, via billboards and print platforms."
She explained,"our goal is to provide industries with deeper insights into their positioning within the media, which will ultimately impact their outlook and decisions. Everything we do is to help businesses create more meaningful, deeper, connections with their stakeholders, and help everyone realize the power of the media."
The report shows the share of voice (number of news stories as compared to competitors), sentiments (how the story was viewed by readers) and sector news trends. It is expected to be a periodical report that would look at other sectors in the future.

is there a way to send a "thank you for your payment" email directly from paypal?
Unfortunately what you would like to do is not directly supported - that would be too easy. PayPal does have a function called IPN or Instant Payment Notification which with some custom scripting could send automated emails to your customers from your server. You can find more details here. Some businesses simply send a email from their email client as separate action to their customers. And if you're selling from your website, you can create a custom Thank You page that the customer is redirected to after completing the payment process.

Leadville's Lustrous Beginning
The discovery of gold, by Abe Lee, in the California Gulch during the 1860's sent hundreds of gold seekers to Colorado.
The gold seekers began populating an area that became known as Oro City, just a short distance from Harrison Avenue. As the placer gold that lay on top of the ground for the taking was depleted, Oro City was deserted and the scene was desolate. However, another rush began in 1877 when silver was discovered in the upper California Gulch. Hardy souls lured by the discovery of rich silver lead to Leadville earning its name in 1878, when the population reached 25,000.
The mining district is credited with producing over 2.9 million troy ounces of gold and 240 million troy ounces of silver. When the city's fortunes declined with the repeal of the Sherman Act in 1890, mining companies turned to lead, zinc and molybdenum. In the late 1970's the Climax Mine north of Leadville produced 75 percent of the world's molybdenum.

Now a booming city, three brothers; William F., George F. and John W. Callaway – wealthy Denver queensware merchants, came to Leadville around 1880. The brothers established a branch of their business on lower Harrison Avenue. In 1886 they erected the Delaware Hotel as a monument to their home state. John Callaway was proprietor. The Delaware Block was completed by October, 1886 at an estimated cost of $60,000. During its heyday many famous people walked the streets of this historic mining town, some even staying at The Delaware Hotel. These include; Doc Holiday, Houdini, John Phillips Souza, Butch Cassidy and "The Unsinkable Molly Brown", to name but a few.

The Delaware Hotel architect, George King, arrived in Leadville in time to take an active part in the building boom that was sweeping the city. King obviously favored the French Mansard design, which until the late 1880's was popular in mining towns. The design featured space for stores both in front and on the Seventh Street side. The second and third walk-up floors had fifty handsomely furnished rooms suitable for offices and bedrooms. The building was fitted with steam heat, hot and cold water, gas lights, 6 bathrooms and a few closets King was also the architect for the plush Tabor Grand Hotel directly across the street.

The Earl of Caithness Conservative
To ask Her Majesty's Government, further to the remarks by Lord Wallace of Tankerness on 26 June (HL Deb, col 797), what are the "general principles of international law" relating to the allocation of national debt to which the minister referred.
Hansard source (Citation: HL Deb, 10 July 2013, c48W)
Lord Wallace of Tankerness Lords Spokesperson (Attorney General's Office), The Advocate-General for Scotland, Lords Spokesperson (Scotland Office)
There are a number of key legal issues that would underpin the formation of any independent Scottish state. The most important of these is the principle of continuity: that is, that the remainder of the UK would be the continuing state and an independent Scotland would be a new state. The first paper in the Government's 'Scotland Analysis' programme deals with this issue in detail.
The question of the allocation of national debt would be informed by the principle of equity and international practice. On that basis, a new state would be expected to take its 'equitable share' of any national debt as accepted by the Scottish Government Finance Secretary in his evidence to the Lords Economic Affairs Committee.

When people talk about getting away from it all, they are usually thinking about our great open spaces out west. But to science fiction writers, that would be practically in the heart of Times Square. When a man of the future wants solitude he picks a slab of rock floating in space four light years east of Andromeda. Here is a gentle little story about a man who sought the solitude of such a location. And who did he take along for company? None other than Charles the Robot.
Mark Rogers was a prospector, and he went to the asteroid belt looking for radioactives and rare metals. He searched for years, never finding much, hopping from fragment to fragment. After a time he settled on a slab of rock half a mile thick.
Rogers had been born old, and he didn't age much past a point. His face was white with the pallor of space, and his hands shook a little. He called his slab of rock Martha, after no girl he had ever known.
with an air pump and a shack, a few tons of dirt and some water tanks, and a robot. Then he settled back and watched the stars.
The robot he bought was a standard-model all-around worker, with built-in memory and a thirty-word vocabulary. Mark added to that, bit by bit. He was something of a tinkerer, and he enjoyed adapting his environment to himself.
Mark changed that. He eliminated the "sirs" from the robot's vocabulary; equality was the rule on Mark's hunk of rock. Then he dubbed the robot Charles, after a father he had never known.
As the years passed, the air pump began to labor a little as it converted the oxygen in the planetoid's rock into a breathable atmosphere. The air seeped into space, and the pump worked a little harder, supplying more.
The crops continued to grow on the tamed black dirt of the planetoid. Looking up, Mark could see the sheer blackness of the river of space, the floating points of the stars. Around him, under him, overhead, masses of rock drifted, and sometimes the starlight glinted from their black sides. Occasionally, Mark caught a glimpse of Mars or Jupiter. Once he thought he saw Earth.
At first the answers were what Mark had been answering himself, in the long dialogue held over the years. But, slowly, he began to build a new personality into Charles.
Mark had always been suspicious and scornful of women. But for some reason he didn't tape the same suspicion into Charles. Charles' outlook was quite different.
"What do you think of girls?" Mark would ask, sitting on a packing case outside the shack, after the chores were done.
"Oh, I don't know. You have to find the right one." The robot would reply dutifully, repeating what had been put on its tape.
"I never saw a good one yet," Mark would say.
"You're a romantic!" Mark would say scornfully. The robot would pause – a built-in pause – and chuckle a carefully constructed chuckle.
And then it would be bedtime.


What does the heart signify in the Bible?
The heart is also the seat of the conscience (Rom. 2:15). It is naturally wicked (Gen. 8:21), and hence it contaminates the whole life and character (Matt. 12:34; 15:18; compare Eccl. 8:11; Ps. 73:7). Hence the heart must be changed, regenerated (Ezek. 36:26; 11:19; Ps. 51:10-14), before a man can willingly obey God.

Q: antd table actions and onrow function While clicking actions in antd table onRow click action is also initiated. How can i solve these problem
key = (selectedRowKeys) => {
console.log('selected values', selectedRowKeys);a
   }
action = () => {
console.log('received in actions')
}

Table code:

while clicking the actions in the table the onclick function is also initiated, how to solve this im new to reactjs

A: This is a classic case of event bubbling.
Try stopping the event propagation in the following way:
action = (event) => {
  event.stopPropagation();
  console.log('received in actions');
}

This should capture the event and stop it from propagating to the parent event handler.

A:
 ({
         onClick: () => console.log(r.key),
      })}

Memories formed in black and white
2 April 2020 18:23 By The Tig
Manu Tuilagi enjoys the moment as he scores against the Falcons at Welford Road
Mathew Tait caight in the crossfire at Welford Road with Falcons
George Ford squirms his way past George McGuigan to score
So just about the only thing we know about the Gallagher Premiership season in 2020/21 at this point is that Newcastle Falcons will replace Saracens in it.
Saracens' destiny has been decided for a while, of course, but the RFU have now announced that there will be no further play in the Championship with the Falcons confirmed as champions. It's a shame it couldn't have been played to a finish, but these things are out of anyone's hands in this strangest of seasons.
The Falcons have a healthy dose of Tigers influence, right from the top with Dean Richards and John Wells of course, through players including Toby Flood and Logo Mulipola.
Add the names of George McGuigan, Michael Young, Gareth Owen, Sebastian de Chaves and Greg Peterson, and that's quite a list with Leicester links. Club captain Will Welch is also the grandson of an ex-Tigers player.
Martin Corry and Mathew Tait became massive favourites at Tigers after starting out on Tyneside, international wings Tony Underwood and Vereniki Goneva have worn the colours of both clubs, and Tim Stimpson won a record five successive league titles as he enjoyed four in a row with Tigers to follow one in black and white.
Andy Goode, don't forget, became a local hero in the Nohrt-East when he came out of retirement to steer the Premiership ship.
In the Tigers current squad, Calum Green has had spells in green either side of his successes in black and white, while Johnny McPhillips started his professional career at Kingston Park.
There have been several others over the years and some notable clashes on the field too, beginning with a Cup Final win at Twickenham when the North-Easterners were still known as Gosforth and wore green and white.
It was a Final in which anyone of that era will tell you the Geordie forwards were supposed to dominate. But the experience of two previous successes in the competition came through as Peter Wheeler led Tigers to their historic hat-trick and a grip on the John Player trophy in perpetuity.
Under their new, professional identity, the Falcons swept all before them in their title-winning season in 1998, including a win at Welford Road with a star-studded team steered by their boss Rob Andrew. The Tig remembered the return was hosted at Gateshead International Stadium but not that Falcons won again nor the fact that Will Greenwood was sent off.
It is easier to recall that a year later, Tigers gained some revenge when it was a win in the North-East that put the rubber-stamp on the first of four consecutive league titles under Deano as director of rugby.
There were a couple of half-century wins in encounters at Welford Road too before the 83-10 triumph in 2004/05 over a team which included shell-shocked teenager Tait. It was a wonder he agreed to return to the scene of the crime in later years, though The Tig is among the legion glad he did as he reignited his career in green, white and red.
Newcastle fans will have their own memories of lowering Tigers colours and there have been a number of tight meetings, not least at Kingston Park, where a young Flood chose a game against Leicester to announce himself as Jonny Wilkinson's legitimate successor with a last-minute winning kick in a game which looked to be going the other way.
There was that Mat Tait try when he out-jumped brother Alec to score in the corner at Kingston Park and probably had to apologise afterwards, and who could ever forget that Telusa sidestep at Kingston Park which sent the whole of Tyneside on a merry dance?
For tension, you couldn't – or wouldn't want to – match the contrasting emotions of home defeat two seasons ago which put Falcons into the Premiership semi-finals at Tigers' expense and then the Guy Thompson-inspired wins at Kingston Park and Welford Road in 2018/19 which just about sealed the Falcons' fate at the bottom of the table and spared enormous blushes back in the East Midlands.
It's a rivalry that has had a lot of history packed into a short period of time and one which we now know will kick off again in 2020/21.

Anne Wooster Metcalfe is the featured artist for July in Rockland Congregational Church's Sanctuary Art Gallery. A reception honoring her work will take place Wednesday, July 13 from 5 to 7 p.m. at the church, 180 Limerock St.
Metcalfe grew up in Waldoboro, graduating from Medomak Valley High School in 1990. She attended the Maryland Institute of Art in Baltimore where she painted and photographed the large public gardens in Maryland. As a professor's assistant, Metcalfe developed an interest in education and, in 1996, returned to MICA to receive a master's degree in education. In 2000, she became the art teacher at the Warren Community School.
Metcalfe attended the Haystack School of Arts for six summers where she was introduced to monotype printing and soon was immersed in the printing of Maine flora. Each print is an original: a leaf may be used in more than one print, but its color and composition always changes. Today Metcalfe devotes herself full-time to monotype printing and enjoys this means of expressing the beauty she sees in her life.
The show will run through July 30. For more information, contact Judy Waterman at 594-8656.

The deal surpasses the previous record for a U.S. acquisition in the cannabis industry – MedMen's $682 million purchase of PharmaCann last year. The deal with Verano gives Arizona-based Harvest the right to operate up to 200 facilities – including 123 retail dispensaries – across 16 states, with the the potential to reach more than 150 million Americans, said the company in a statement to the Canadian Securities Exchange (CSE).
Harvest currently operates in Arizona, California, Florida, Maryland, Ohio and Pennsylvania, and was already planning to open new locations in Massachusetts, Michigan and North Dakota. The Verano acquisition adds Illinois and Nevada to that list, as well as plans for new locations in Puerto Rico, Oklahoma and New Jersey.
Harvest, which trades on the Canadian Securities Exchange (HARV), is on track to make further acquisitions in 2019, said White in his CNBC interview. Last month it announced the purchase of California-based Falcon International Corp, expanding its footprint by 16 cannabis licenses.
Harvest's CSE market announcement says it will have 13 cultivation facilities and 13 manufacturing facilities operating by the end of 2019. It currently has a product portfolio of more than 150 brands and the Verano deal will deliver new technology, allowing it to expand into the biotech and food and beverage industries, says Harvest representative. Chicago-based Verano was launched last October following the consolidation of four companies: Ataraxia, Zen Leaf, Verano, and 3 Boys Farms.
The U.S. cannabis industry is currently undergoing a wave of consolidation. Given the heightened competition for licenses in states that have recently legalized cannabis, acquisitions allow larger companies faster and cheaper routes into in new markets. Harvest has a market value of around $1.5 billion, making it the third-largest U.S. cannabis firm, after Green Thumb Industries and Curaleaf Holdings.

Bastien and Bastienne was written by Mozart when he was only 12, purportedly for a performance in the Garden Theatre of the famous 'Magnetist' Dr Mesmer. It's a simple and delightful tale about the trials of Bastien and his shepherdess love Bastienne, with additional mesmeric magic from the Wizard Colas plus plenty of other mischief. Waterlow Park's Tea Lawn, where a Shepherd and Shepherdess are already in residence as statues, is the ideal setting for this lovely pastoral piece.
Come along for a charming summer evening's entertainment on the Tea Lawn outside Lauderdale House, performed by our resident Chamber Opera Ensemble, Insieme.
Bastien and Bastienne is part of this year's season of open-air events at Lauderdale House, taking place on the Tea Lawn in Waterlow Park.
Audience members will sit on the Tea Lawn to watch the performance, so please bring either a picnic blanket or a folding chair to make yourself comfortable. We will ask attendees with chairs to sit behind those on the ground to make sure that everyone has a good view. We also have a number of picnic tables that can be booked for groups of up to 6 people - select 'Picnic Table Group Ticket' when buying your tickets to reserve a table!
The performance will continue regardless of the weather. Having run open-air events for many years, we know all too well that the weather can be deceptive and can change very quickly. Please plan for all eventualities and remember to bring a waterproof layer!
The cafe/bar will be open selling food and drinks before the performance starts. You are also welcome to bring your own picnic to enjoy on the Tea Lawn as you watch the performance.
The Tea Lawn will be open for attendees to settle down and enjoy their picnics from 6pm, with the show starting at 7pm. Please come to box office at front door on the night.


I recently had the opportunity to review some makeup items and of course I had to share my thoughts with all my lovely readers! I'd like to especially thank Miju at Vasanti for giving me this opportunity :) This is my first "make-up look" post, hope you all enjoy it!
P.S. I thought that it would be nice to note that Vasanti Cosmetics was founded by three Canadian women - love that this is CANADIAN! woo! Products can be found online through their website or at selected Shoppers Drug Mart locations. I find their prices to be really reasonable and I am all for supporting our local brand.

Overall, I love the texture of the eyeshadow. It is highly pigmented and it is really creamy - also, I didn't experience any fall out which is great. I would love to try a few more of their products. I definitely have my eye on 1. See the Light Powder Hilighter 2. Wonders of the World Concealer 3. Manoi Magic Oil 4. Blush Brush (I am on a hunt for one).
Hope you enjoy the look above !


This week's Workspace of the Week wouldn't look out of place in any modern spy movie, and it makes sense considering it's the office of a cyber security firm. Turman Romano was asked to design the offices of the cyber security company, located in Tel Aviv, Israel, and had a huge 1000 square meter blank canvas to work with. Unsurprisingly, due to the nature of the company, they were asked to keep the identity of the mysterious cyber company a secret. Which makes this mysterious office even cooler.
The anonymous company in question was previously resident in a space half the size of their new office, they decided that it was time for an upgrade and said that it was about time that they worked in "the coolest office in the city". The new office space is housed within Israel's first, and most famous, tower in the centre of Tel Aviv. Before Turman Romano undertook this unique challenge the space was boxy, cramped and lifeless. So the design studio set out to transform it into a sprawling open plan space by knocking down all of the unnecessary walls and creating an office which would bring a sense of mystery and fun to work day.
In this new location the cyber company now has three open space work areas, seven private offices and three meeting rooms which fall off the central reception area. The space is also fitted with an open kitchen, dining area and chilling zone which acts a centrepiece which facilities a natural flow throughout the entire space.
There is also a fun room for employees to relax and play video games in, a giant egg for napping, huge desks for coding and endless plants which aim to bring a calming and natural atmosphere into a technology driven space.
