It's no secret that there is a lot of information circulating and it can be hard to keep up with all the important headlines. We've collected the most relevant and informative news stories, data and resources for real estate investors and put them all in one place. We hope the information you find here provides a bit more clarity and confidence in the midst of a chaotic world.
Educated Homebuyers Have The Advantage In Times of Uncertainty
In an interview last week, Barbara Corcoran, Shark Tank judge and founder of the Corcoran Group, a New York-based residential brokerage, offered straight-talk about the housing market and the upside she sees for buyers right now. "Every real estate cycle that has gone up and down, the deals weren't made in the down cycles, nor in the up cycles. They were always made in the times where there's the greatest uncertainty where everybody's guessing." Check out the full interview to hear what else she had to say.
The Paycheck Protection Program Isn't The Only Option To Keep Your Business Afloat
Yesterday, the Senate passed a measure that would inject an additional $310 billion into the PPP. The House is expected to pass the bill on Thursday, and President Trump has indicated he will sign it. But many small businesses seeking funding can't afford to put all their eggs in the PPP basket. MarketWatch spoke to several experts to get advice on alternate funding options for small business owners who are strapped for cash.
Housing Isn't As Doomed As It May Seem
There's no denying the chaos wrought by COVID-19 is being felt in the housing market and will continue to create uncertainty in the near term. However, current conditions may spell opportunity for buy-and-hold investors.
HousingWire columnist Logan Mohtashami predicts the economic burden will be felt most keenly by renters. "This may add some years of renting before first-time homebuyers can pull the trigger," he argues. In the longer term, he expects demographics to work in sellers' favor, "The number of Americans ages 26-32 is massive…The coronavirus crisis may mean that those young folks will take a little longer to earn the capacity for homeownership, but they will get there."
Foreclosure Activity Could Remain Low
ATTOM Data Solutions released its Q1 2020 Foreclosure Market Report last week. "As foreclosure activity across the country continued to decline in March, contributing to a run of quarterly declines, the number of filings remains just one-sixth of what it was following the Great Recession a decade ago," said Todd Teta, chief product officer at ATTOM Data Solutions. Read the report to see the latest stats on foreclosure starts and bank repossessions across the country.

It's the midweek and I hope this post is finding you all in good health :)!
This time round I want to share an excerpt from a short story I'd written a while ago called Jacob's Apocalypse. This short snippet is taken from Part 1 of the story: So It Begins. Enjoy :):
~ I question the future when I barely remember the past. Sometimes I sit in those moments, thoughts filled with the possibility of a before and wonder if the expressions that once haunted my countenance will ever return. I think they were there, moments where I was not this zombie-like creature I am now. At times I even feel it is a game, that I am a part of some strange reality swarming with violent carnivores adding to the bare landscape of the place I now know.
It had to be different before right? There must have been a time when there was a feeling unlike what I have now. I'm not even sure what my emotions are most of the time, so fickle are they. One moment, a sensation of spreading joy that never quite reaches the surface and another, the deep wanting to have it all end, without ceremony.
I feel as if I have gotten ahead of myself and forgotten that you cannot walk around in my head. You have no clue what goes on there, nor do you have the faintest understanding of what I'm talking about. I promise I'll try my very best to convey my purpose. Purpose? I feel I should change that, because it seems more likely that I am reaching for some kind of help, from this place, this thing, this me, that I cannot run away from . . .
There it is again. The humming. Relentless in its quest to someday destroy me? Save me maybe? Whatever the case, it's there and I sit up, thinking for a moment that this is one of those times when she will appear along with it. She calms it somehow, as though it is a kind of pet to her and her presence strokes it into obedient silence. I know you're wondering who 'she' is, but I won't tell you that yet. She's too important to speak of in a passing thought.
I'm awake now and blink my eyes rapidly for no other reason than that it is the equivalent of a pinch to prove this is no dream, then leave them open, taking in the blanket of darkness that has become so familiar to me. You cannot imagine the shock one experiences when as you sleep all you see are vibrant colours in every shape and form, yet wake to a place that knows nothing of this. Dreary landscapes, stretching far beyond the line of sight and dull, dirty-looking surroundings. Yes, each time I wake is another surprise, not usually a good one. Hence my love for sleep and my love for my time with her. She brings colour to me. She was the one who showed me that there could be more beyond the confines of this place I live in; who made me aware of their presence. Were it not for her, I would have nothing.
Sitting up I decide I might as well continue the journey and stand, legs a bit shaky as always, almost as though they need to remember how to carry the weight of my body each time I use them. Walking is another matter and this theory continues as I try to step forward, making the tottering steps of one who does not know himself and what he's capable of. Not quite different from every other thing in my life.
I asked her once about this, why she decided to choose me for her revelations. Asked her in a quiet conversation while she tiptoed round me, peering intently, refusing to touch, yet captivated by what she saw. Captivated by me. I could tell she was as she looked at me, her translucent eyes wide with almost amused fascination. She hadn't answered, had instead laughed prettily before disappearing from my sight and grasp. That was my second meeting with her, the first, well, I don't think you're quite ready to hear about the first.
There is a lull in the humming and I see that though she hasn't appeared, it's stopped on its own, as if startled by my stance and intimidated by me. This thought sends a kind of shiver through my stomach, not entirely unpleasant, but one of the feelings I associate with the probable time before.
Movement, then shuffling feet. It breaks my concentration and the feeling deep inside evaporates. I become tense, body taut as it has become accustomed at times like this. Every movement, every sound in this dark place means something. Whether they are ominous or not is often the question that the answer, some are too late at finding out.
The initial sound turns into an almost rhythmic beat along the ground. Were I not so focused on keeping completely still, barely breathing to avoid any noise coming from my own body, I might have found some enjoyment in this strange kind of music. It comes to a halt a ways off from me. A voice, clear and high speaks.
"Finally you wake. Come, we must gather the others. Quickly." A weapon is thrown to me, long, sharp blade, contrasting against the dull outdoors. I catch it deftly at the wooden handle and looking at it, I'm taken to another place inside me. It is here that I am brave, alive and ready for anything. In this case, I must help in the hunt. If we don't do this they will come after us. It is a kind of understanding between us and the animals, a species that looks similar to us, but are different in more ways – whether real or imagined – than I could hope to explain to you, or that you could try to understand. Oh, I forgot and don't want to confuse you, the one who spoke? It isn't she who brings colour, but my sister, Mara. ~
I enjoyed writing this short and will probably share it on Wattpad in the future. It has twists and turns that leave the reader wondering what is reality and what isn't, a side of fiction (psychological) that I really love to delve into, though to date I haven't very often. Thanks for joining me lovely readers and I'll see you Friday :)!
Please note: After a short break the beginning of Chapter 16: Glamorous Lies, will be posted on Saturday, July 19, 2014 on 'Jackie Jones on Wattpad.'. Look out for the Awakening Character Guide (June 28, 2014) and catch up with the story using the link above, as with only FIVE chapters left, you'll want to catch up ^_^.

Police examine abuse claims in Leeds homes (14.03.91)
Social Work Today, 14th March 1991
Sydney Morning Herald – 16 April, 1989
Anne's man just plain old Tim
Commander Timothy Laurence, the man at the centre of the Princess Anne stolen letters scandal, has been portrayed by Fleet Street as a cross between James Bond and Errol Flynn.
Not so, says my sub-editor colleague Jim Bruce.
He went to Sevenoaks School, Kent, with "Tiny Tim" Laurence in the early 1970s. And Jim recalls him as a straight-laced academic plodder with a large nose which was frequently observed bearing a brown hue.
Come on, Jim, what was he really like? "A middle-class twit," he replied.
Coincidentally, while Laurence was plodding along at Sevenoaks, Lady Diana Spencer (now the Princess of Wales) was a stone's throw away at West Heath private girls' school and her future hubby, Prince Charles, was living a few kilometres away at Chevening House.
Is there something we haven't been told?

Fears for the lives of civilians after the regime forces advanced in the southwestern pocket of the Eastern Ghouta under heavy fire cover
Rif Dimashq province – The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights:: the regime forces backed by their allied militiamen of Syrian and non-Syrian nationalities under the command of Russian officers and advisers continue their military operations in the southwestern area of the Eastern Ghouta, where the SOHR monitored the regime forces managed to advance and completely control the whole town of Kafrbatna and Saqba city located north of Kafrbatna, reducing the areas controlled by Al-Rahman Corps in the southwestern pocket of the Eastern Ghouta of Damascus, which is controlled by Al-Rahman Corps, and expanding the regime's areas of control to more than 82% of the areas controlled by the factions in the Eastern Ghouta of Damascus, and the clashes are accompanied by ongoing aerial and ground shelling by the regime forces, targeting areas controlled by Al-Rahman Corps, causing more damage to the building and infrastructure, while there is fear for the lives of those civilians still exist in the pocket controlled by Al-Rahman Corps from the heavy shelling targeting this pocket.
This advancement of the regime forces in the Eastern Ghouta and areas controlled by Al-Rahman Corps has reduced the Corps-held areas through besieging the Corps in 4 towns and cities remained under its control in the southwestern part of the Eastern Ghouta, while a violent explosion rocked the Eastern Ghouta of Damascus, resulted from bombing targeting the regime forces there, while Jaysh Al-Islam still controls Douma city in the Ghouta, while Ahrar Al-Sham Islamic Movement controls Harasta city.

Indoscopy – "Himmat-e-marda toh madad-e- khuda" God help those, who help themselves. You never know, what's going next and what may happen to your life, next moment? This life is full of unexpected tides, tides of happiness, tides of sorrowfulness. And this is common to all, everyone suffers these high and low tides in their life.
Today i'm going to write a story, which is really a benchmark in inspiration, motivation, goal setting or anything you like to get from this. Story of a 25 year old girl Arunima Sinha, who resisted chain snatching in a train (Padmati Express), Arunima who was travelling from Lucknow to Delhi that time in a general compartment of that train on 12th April 2011. She had never thought of anything like this, could happen to her, she was thrown out of a running train. Arunima suffered serious injuries in her legs and pelvic region. Somehow she was rushed to a nearby hospital and her life saved, but her life cost her leg to be amputated. Doctor's had no other way but to amputate her left leg below her knee.
Arunima was a fighter she thought to fight and to do something which even normal and healthy people too don't dare to do. She thought to Climb the Mount Everest while she was just had started recovering and she was bed ridden in the hospital that time too.
She knew she could not run like again ever, she could not play her favorite sport Volleyball again, but she knew she can climb the Mt. Everest. She had determined this, she has to fulfill her wish, she has to live a life of a proud amputee. She had to prove the world that disabled are not for sympathy, disabled don't need to be pitied. She had to prove that disability with physical part don't make them disabled mentally.
Arunima joined Tata Steel Adventure foundation and started her training under the guidance of Bacchendri Pal, the first woman to climb Mt. Everest. Arunima last year that is in 2012 scaled Chhamser Kaangri 6622 mtr high mountain in Laddakh.
But Arunima had miles to go before she stops and she knew it's just a leap in her dream, her ultimate goal was still to be conquered. Arunima on 20th May 2013 made history, she became the first ever Indian amputee woman to scale 8848 mtr. high Everest.
She not only made hope, she not only proved that disability is not a menace, she not only proved that woman can do anything they like, she not only set a standard, but she excelled in every aspect, she proved the world that anything can be achieved, it's just need a will to achieve.
Salute to these kind of brave people, who defying all odds cheered and made many others to cheer by setting a goal in their mind.

text: Fig. 5From: The value of using measurements of geomagnetic field in addition to irradiance and sea surface temperature to estimate geolocations of tagged aquatic animalsThree-dimensional plot of day of day length as a function of time of year and latitudes from 56°S to 56°N. Daylight change is expressed in irradiance half-life periods (E t1/2) per Δ° of latitude. An irradiance half-life period is the time it takes for irradiance levels to double during dawn and halve during dusk. While day length around the solstices changes dramatically in the high latitudes per degree latitude travelled north or south, the dawn and dusk light gradient is also less pronounced at these latitudes. Nonetheless, day length measurement-based latitude estimates can be expected to be about 1.7 times more accurate at 56°N as compared to the equator at solstice. In conclusion, the gradients in day length are greatest during the summer and winter solstices, when the days are longest and shortest in the northern and southern hemispheres; the gradients are weakest during the fall and spring equinoxesBack to article page

Gold Rush Brownies hold a special place in heart — these are somewhere between a cookie and a brownie with a rich caramel and chocolate flavor. One of my best friends mother's would make these regularly and I can still remember waiting for her to cut the crusts just so I could have a taste! These brownies are rich and pack a flavorful punch. Wait, I haven't even told you the best part. This is all from only three ingredients, 5 minutes of prep time and 35 minutes in the oven.
Here are the deets:
1 pack of Graham Crackers
1/2 – 1 full bag of milk chocolate chips
1 15 oz. can sweetened condensed milk
Preheat over to 350 degrees. Pam and line the bottom of a 8×8 pan. Set aside.
Then, remove the graham crackers from the wrapping and place in a zipper bag. Using a rolling pin, can, your hand, etc. crush the crackers.
Place in a bowl, add the entire can of sweetened condensed milk and the desired amount of chocolate chips. I like these to be on the more chocolate side of the spectrum so I usually put in the whole bag but you should put in at least half of a bag.
Pour into your prepared pan and bake for 35-40 minutes until golden on top.
Once finished, remove immediately from pan and set on a rack to cool. Cut crusts and serve, preferably with a cold glass of milk.
Hope you enjoy these as much as I do!

To help support the diverse needs of modern IT teams, we're delighted to announce new updates to vRealize Automation Cloud. First, there's the transformational Terraform integration. Plus, new network automation and cloud organization capabilities that support today's complex cloud environments.
One of the core principles of our VMware Cloud Templates is inclusivity. This month, we bring a major integration to support it: vRealize Automation Cloud can now pull any Terraform configuration (.tf file) into its templating engine and treat it as a first-class citizen – the same as any native templating object.
Along with the Terraform integration, our 08.20 update adds several network automation and cloud organization capabilities.
Introducing Terraform in vRealize Automation Cloud
Terraform is an open-source Infrastructure-as-Code tool. With its massive breadth of support and developer-friendly interface, it is particularly popular for public cloud consumption within DevOps and cloud-native teams.
The new integration brings all this richness into VMware Cloud Templates, complementing Terraform with enterprise-grade capabilities such as central state management, extensibility, customizable self-service, infrastructure pipelining and more. Together with the Terraform provider for vRealize Automation Cloud – which is now verified and available in the Terraform registry – this new capability provides bi-directional support and empowers teams that use these tools to collaborate seamlessly.
Watch this webinar for more details and a demo; or read this step-by-step guide.
Network automation everywhere
Automating network provisioning and configuration is an increasingly essential yet challenging use case for our customers. vRealize Automation Cloud has been supporting network automation across clouds, with a focus on NSX. This month we extend support for:
- NSX Policy Mode
- Advanced load balancer configurations
- One-to-many association for NSX Manager to vCenter
- Port forwarding
- Day 2 (post-provisioning) actions for firewall rules and security group reconfiguration
Check out our updated, four-part blog series on network automation with Cloud Assembly and NSX to learn more. And don't miss our new whitepaper, Enterprise Framework for Network Automation.
Flexible cloud organization
Modern IT teams need to support diverse organizations and requirements. This month we up-leveled two recently introduced capabilities for more flexibility in the cloud organization: additional permission options for adaptive role-based access control (RBAC) and the ability for providers to assign Virtual Private Zones in tenant organizations for multi-tenancy (note that multi-tenancy is currently only supported for service providers through VMware Cloud Provider Hub).

Wine Review: Santa Cristina's Toscana
Santa Cristina's Toscana offers a dark ruby red wine that tastes of berries and flowers; touch of tobacco. Alcohol content, tannin levels, acidity and residual sugar is well balanced. There are legs on this wine. For a red wine, it is light tasting with a medium body making it versatile. You will not be disappointed by the quality and price of this affordable table wine. This wine is a bend of 60% Sangiovese and 40% Cabernet, Merlot and Syrah giving it an interesting taste to the palate. It pairs well with meat, steak, meat sauces, grilled foods, burgers, and other greasy and high tasting foods. Poignant cheeses, such as brie, would work well with this flavor. Santa Cristina is bottled on a hill near Tuscany near the town of Cortona. The winery is relatively new and established in 2006 under the tradition of an older wine. The first Santa Cristina was produced in 1946. The town of Cortona is ancient and was discussed in literature by people ranging from Herodotus to Dion

Nowadays it seems that anyone who's anyone has a cloud storage service. While the market seemed like it was just dominated by Dropbox at one point, now a lot of the technology giants offer something of their own. As such, it can be tricky choosing which is going to be the best for you. They all offer similar functionality, but each have differences that might have an impact on which one you prefer. This guide will look at Google Drive and Amazon Cloud Drive side by side to see which comes out victorious.
First of all, it makes sense to look at how much storage each service offers and how much it costs. The amount of space you are going to want is entirely dependent on the type of files you want to store in the cloud. If, for example, you need access to lots of video files, then this is going to take up much more storage than word documents. Both Google Drive and Amazon Cloud Drive offer 5GB of storage space for free. For a typical user this will probably be more than adequate. Enterprise users will likely need to go beyond this however, which is where the paid plans come in. The most than Google offers is a sizable 16TB of space for a sizeable $799.99 a month. The most Amazon offer is 1TB for $500 a year, with the equivalent space on Google costing $599.88. Amazon win out when it comes to the cheapest rate, but it is only with Google than you can go above the 1TB limit.
Both Google and Amazon allow you to upload any type of file. Google, however, has a 10GB limit per file, while Amazon allows for anything. While only a few will probably ever exceed that limit, it is one to bear in mind if you are operating with huge files.
One of the brilliant things about cloud storage is that you can access your files at any time and from anywhere. As such, the support for these services on your mobile devices is going to be important. Google Drive supports Android and iOS, but has no app for other phone operating systems. At the moment Cloud Drive only supports Android, but an iOS app could happen down the line. Both services have desktop applications. The winner here will just depend on what type of phone you have (if accessing your files on your phone is important to you).
Google Drive is going to be great for those who are already tied into Google's ecosystem, like their apps and Gmail. Everything is unified and it is easy to bring it all together. However, if you need storage expansion then it comes at a hefty price. Where Amazon Cloud Drive falls down in comparison is that the program does not automatically sync your files to the cloud, unlike Drive. You can upload files and retrieve them, but updates made on one system are not automatically reflected in the cloud. This is quite a let-down and frankly sees Google Drive come out the victor.
Google Drive vs. Amazon Cloud Drive

IU basketball freshman, 'freak athlete' Jordan Geronimo ready to prove he might be steal of 2020 class
BLOOMINGTON – Clif Marshall seeks out opportunities where he can get to know his athletes on a personal level. He treasures the chance to build trust with Indiana men's basketball players outside of the work he does with them as the director of athletic performance.
Following a July workout, he took advantage of an opportunity to learn a bit about IU freshman forward Jordan Geronimo and what drives him to succeed. When Geronimo was getting set to go back to his apartment, Marshall decided to walk with him and have a conversation that wasn't focused on the freshman's strength or nutrition plans.
Geronimo's recruiting tale started later than most of his Indiana teammates. It wasn't until the summer before his senior year that he started to get most of his attention. It wasn't always clear he'd be playing Big Ten level basketball.
"He was still in awe of being at Indiana University," Marshall says of their walk and chat.
While Geronimo was raw as a basketball player, he has all the attributes you want in an athlete, says his AAU coach Vin Pastore.
Geronimo is 6-6 with a 7-1 wingspan. The only athlete that Marshall has seen with those measurements while working at Indiana was Romeo Langford who was around the same height with a wingspan two inches shorter.
"I get really excited about that because obviously as a strength coach, you cannot improve a player's height or a player's wingspan, unfortunately," Marshall said. "Genetically, I knew right away that he's been gifted with some really good measurables."
Geronimo had all the gifts a coach like Archie Miller wants with his pack line defense, but in high school Geronimo didn't always face the high-level talent or get the elite strength training to capture the attention of coaches.
But with a breakout summer after his junior season — one that saw Geronimo's confidence soar — he showed he could piece it all together. Miller and former Indiana assistant Bruiser Flint saw it too.
Geronimo is ready for another breakout moment, just like he told Marshall at the end of their walk this summer.
"I'm so excited that I get to prove to myself and prove to everybody else that I can play at this level," Geronimo told him.
'He's a freak athlete'
Ask any of those who have been around Geronimo about his basketball skills, and the first words will look similar to those of new teammate Armaan Franklin.
"Jordan, he's a freak," Franklin said during the team's media day last week. "He's a freak athlete."
Along with that height and wingspan, Geronimo adds a 40-inch vertical.
He adds lateral quickness to disrupt the passing lanes while having that leaping ability to play above the rim.
When he arrived at IU this summer, he weighed 200 pounds. He established a strength plan with Marshall and a nutrition plan with Isaac Hicks (IU's director of sports performance nutrition) and has gotten his weight up to 225.
Geronimo didn't lift as much in high school like many of his IU teammates did, but it opened the door for results to show quickly in his work with Marshall. They focused on giving him higher reps with an emphasis on muscle hypertrophy — enlarging his muscles.
"Within two-to-three weeks, you could already see changes in his body," Marshall said.
Preseason workouts are more intense than those in the summer — athletes may burn up to 2,000 calories in a single workout at times — so maintaining that added weight will be difficult for Geronimo. To avoid losing that weight, Geronimo is consistently attending voluntary workouts at 7 a.m. with Marshall.
The goal Marshall sets in terms of weight comes from each player's body fat percentage — a number Marshall wants to be below 10% for each athlete. Geronimo currently sits at around 7.5%, and by the end of his time at IU, Marshall thinks Geronimo can get his weight up to 235 pounds.
"I don't want to make him a tugboat and weigh him down," Marshall said. "I want to make him a speedboat, so that the fast-twitch muscle fibers that are going to allow him to play at a high level are never going to be sacrificed."
The summer in which Geronimo shined
Geronimo's high school career was impressive on the box scores, averaging nearly a double-double in his junior season at St. Paul's School in Concord, N.H. But facing a lower level of competition, he was often overlooked until he started to showcase his skills while playing AAU ball for Mass Rivals.
"It all happened very fast in that junior year," Pastore recalls. "By the time the summer had come, he had gotten confidence in himself. The recruiting people were raving about him, and college coaches were raving about him. We were winning, and he was a big part of it.
"And he was making highlight-level plays. He'd come down and knock three 3s in, in a row. Then he's dunking the ball up at his armpits. He's blocking shots down at the other end."
Pastore saw that athleticism, but he knew Geronimo was still raw having not played many minutes against high-level competition.
"With those types of kids and a little bit of imagination, you can see what they can become down the road," Pastore said. "That's what's so great about Jordan. A lot of elite athletes, but he's elite of the elite of athleticism. You're not gonna find a whole lot of people more athletic than (him)."
In his senior season, Geronimo averaged 18 points, 9 rebounds and 2 blocks per game. But the attention that started pouring, especially from Indiana.
"Indiana did a great job — it was Bruiser Flint at the time — of giving him the most attention," Pastore said.
Pastore coached former IU forward Noah Vonleh as well as current Purdue forward Aaron Wheeler, so the reputation of basketball in Indiana was not new to Geronimo.
With the humbleness, maturity and quiet confidence that Pastore praises in Geronimo, he doesn't expect much issue in handling the expectations and pressure that also come with the lure of playing in the state.
Where he fits with Archie Miller
When the updated 2020 Maui Invitational bracket was released, Pastore got a text from Geronimo.
"Did you see who our first game is against?"
IU faces Providence in Asheville, N.C., on Nov. 30 for the coronavirus version of the invitational. For Pastore, that's a game he has long been anticipating with another two of his former players on Providence's roster.
But minutes could be scarce for Geronimo in the early going with a shortened nonconference slate. Not only will there be fewer games, but it will be filled with tougher opponents which could make it difficult for Geronimo to get the minutes he expected in the buildup to the Big Ten season.
However, his play on the defensive end could earn him more time on the court. With his length and athleticism, Geronimo gives IU the ability to switch without the fear of a mismatch. He could provide a defensive presence whether he's on a guard, forward or center.
"I don't see how a coach doesn't use that, even as he's a freshman learning the ropes," Pastore said.
Marshall has noticed as Geronimo's strength and confidence have built, he's now spending more time with coaches in the film room preparing for the mental aspect of Division I hoops.
Once an overlooked prospect, Geronimo is building to be as perfect of a fit as he can be for Miller's style of play.

If you're like most gym bros, you've probably been doing a hell of a job training your Achilles tendons. Yeah, that's what you're hitting with those bouncy, shallow reps during calf presses.
The Achilles tendons are powerful elastic bands which spring load your ankles through rapid calf raises. Athletes depend on this quality for running and jumping, but when it comes to building massive calves? Sorry, no dice.
If you allow this type of movement to dominate your calf training, you'll reduce its effectiveness. Pausing your end ranges of motion on any calf raise will limit the elastic rebound of the Achilles and force your calf muscle to do more work.
Paused Calf Press
Pause at the top and bottom of the press for at least two seconds. Dorsiflex your ankle (by bringing toes toward shins) and stretch the calf at the bottom as much as you can without pain. Then push as high onto the balls of your feet and toes as possible.
If you want to develop better strength and mobility at the end ranges, spend time controlling the movement into these end ranges under load. Your ankles and feet will grow stronger as you gain more control in these end ranges. This is actually true of squatting, benching, or any other exercise.
Choose a load you're able to control and press with full ankle dorsiflexion or you'll default to bouncing the weight. Apply the same approach to all calf raise variations.
What If My Calves Are Tight?
If your calves are tight and don't allow a deep stretch at the bottom of your press, then alternate between foam rolling them for 10 rolls and static stretching them for 20-30 seconds. Repeat 2-3 times then try flexing your ankles.
The combination of myofascial release and stretching should temporarily relax some neutral tone of your tight calves long enough to train into the restricted range of motion. Loading with control into the otherwise restricted range should improve your ability to access this range in the future.
Vary your rep ranges and train your calves more often. Calves are designed to be walked on all day, so 4 sets of 8-10 reps once a week won't cause muscle growth.

Hope you guys have had a good week! I have started mine on an even keel, with everything coming together just fine, to crash down on Thursday and remain in a funk on Friday. Nothing big has happened, it's just that my inner critic, which I've been trying to distance myself from a while now, went on a total rampage and got me impossibly down.
I'm so glad that I had the foresight to shoot this recipe earlier on in the week as the second part of the week turned out to be a total write off. As it's been rather cold around these parts lately, I made a warming and comforting (yet healthy) tagine featuring jackfruit and chickpeas and a beautiful North African spice mix known as baharat (derived from the Arabic word for spice). As it's a spice mix rather than a single spice, its ingredients and proportions may vary a little from cuisine to cuisine or even household to household, but they tend to include warming spices like cardamom, cloves, cinnamon, nutmeg, cumin, paprika, allspice and black pepper. I purchased mine in my local corner store, which boasts an impressive collection of dry spices from all over the Mediterranean, the Middle East and India, but I have also seen a version of this spice mix in supermarkets so I am sure you will be able to get some with ease.
This recipe is inspired by a dish I had while visiting London in October. While I spent most of my time in London covered in paint and dust, I did manage to sneak out for a few low key meals with friends before another lockdown got announced. One day I met up with my friend Elie in beautiful Regent's Park (oh how I miss that place!) and we had a lovely time chatting while sitting 2 meters apart from each other at far ends of the same bench and munching on a take away lunch. Mine was a vegan tagine box from LEON and I really enjoyed it, especially that it brought a touch of comfort to not the most relaxing al fresco lunch experience (it was too cold to eat outside for a start!) and I promised myself to recreate it in my own kitchen once I get back.
While the dish is enjoyable on its own, it really benefits from a drizzle of zhough, which LEON made with mint and parsley, but I personally prefer coriander, or coriander and parsley. It comes together in minutes and it makes a great addition not only to this particular dish, but also to pita pockets, hummus and salad bowls. I also recommend the addition of finely chopped quick-pickled (or preserved) lemons. They provide a beautiful contrast to the aromatic date-sweetened sauce and are just as versatile as zhough, especially if you are a fan of these sort of flavours.
Making quick-pickled lemons at home is easy and quick (I used this recipe) and once they've had a chance to hibernate in the fridge for a day, they really come into their own and give this dish a beautiful pop of flavour and colour too. I am pleased with the flavours here and I hope you'll enjoy them too.

- serves: 4
- 2 tbsp / 30 ml oil (I used olive oil)
- 1 large onion, finely chopped
- 565 g / 20 oz tin of young jackfruit in brine, drained
- 6 garlic cloves, finely chopped
- 2 tsp finely grated ginger
- 5 tsp baharat spice mix
- 2 tbsp tomato paste
- 1 tbsp soy sauce or tamari (for GF version)
- 400 g / 14 oz tin of peeled plum tomatoes / 3 medium, ripe tomatoes
- 1 vegetable (vegan) stock cube
- 1 fresh or dried bay leaf
- ½ tsp coarse sea salt, adjust to taste
- a few pinches of hot chilli (or a squeeze of harissa paste)
- 80 g / 2.8 oz / 4 Medjool (or other) dates, diced finely
- 400 g / 2 cups cooked chickpeas
- 1 tbsp pomegranate molasses
- 1 tsp date syrup (optional)
- pomegranate arils, to serve
- quick-pickled or preserved lemon, chopped finely
- toasted almond flakes, to serve
- a small bunch of coriander (or 50% coriander and 50% parsley)
- 1-2 garlic cloves
- ½ tsp ground cardamom
- ½ tsp ground cumin
- a good pinch of chilli flakes (I used pul biber)
- ½ tsp salt, more to taste
- olive oil
- squeeze of lemon (adding zest is nice too)
- Heat up the oil in a heavy-bottomed pot.
- Add the diced onion and fry it off gently until almost translucent, stirring from time to time.
- Meanwhile, cut off the fleshy bits of the jackfruit pieces and discard together with any seeds as they aren't very nice to eat. Squash the jackfruit pieces down with a fork so that the fibres separate and set aside.
- Add chopped garlic and grated ginger to the pot with onion. Sauté all the aromatics together, stirring often so that they don't burn.
- Add jackfruit pieces and baharat mix into the aromatics mixture. Fry the spices off gently for a minute or two (stirring the whole time) as they tend to burn easily.
- Stir in tomato paste, soy sauce, squashed plum tomatoes and their juices, vegan stock cube, bay leaf, salt, chilli (if using), chopped dates and 240 ml / 1 cup of water. If you consume alcohol and have any red wine to hand, a cup of red wine (instead of water) will also work a treat.
- Simmer on a low-medium heat until the tomato flesh breaks down and excess moisture evaporates, giving the pot a good stir from time to time. If the tomatoes are still chunky but the pot is starting to look a bit dry, be sure to top it up with more water. Simmer until the tomatoes are broken down and the sauce reaches the thickness you like.
- Add in cooked chickpeas towards the end of the simmering time.
- Finally, season with pomegranate molasses, date syrup or sugar (if needed) and extra salt (if needed). If you can, allow the flavours to mature for a day before consuming.
- Serve on some rice (I enjoy brown rice) with a dollop of zough, some finely chopped preserved or quick pickled lemons and toasted almonds.
- Put coriander leaves and delicate stems (leave the sturdier stems for a curry paste), garlic, spices and salt in a food processor. Pulse until minced finely or leave it a bit chunkier if you prefer.
- Drizzle in the oil while the processor is running. Stop once the mixture reaches a sauce consistency.
- Season with a good squeeze of lemon and some extra salt (if needed). Store in a jar in the fridge, it will keep for 1-2 weeks.

Date: 09 March 2021
Writer: Yen Le & Thao Bui
The concept of sexual harassment ("SH") at the workplace has been stated in the Labor Code 2012, but the regulations were unclear. Now, the Labor Code 2019 ("LC") has more detailed regulations on SH at work and BLawyers Vietnam will provide some notes as follows:
1. SH at workplace
SH at work is the sexual act of a person towards another person at workplace that such person do not expect or accept. Workplace is any place where the employee works according to agreements with or assignment of the employer.
2. Notable points about SH act at workplace
a. Subject committing the violation act: A person having a work-related relationship with the harassed person. Some common subjects performing SH acts at workplace are: employers, employer's representatives, business managers, colleagues, customers or partners, etc.
b. Subject of SH at workplace: A person who is directly harassed or affected by the offensive acts of person who commits SH at the workplace, regardless of gender.
c. SH-happening location: Workplace is any place where an employee works according to agreements with or assignment of employer, including work-related locations or spaces such as social events, seminars, trainings, official business trip, meals, phone conversations, electronic communication activities, employer-arranged vehicles from residence to workplace and vice versa, residence provided by the employer, and other location specified by the employer.
d. Identifying signs of SH act at workplace: SH act can occur in the form of an exchange (such as proposing, asking, suggesting, threatening, forcing to exchange of sexual relations for any benefit related to work), or act bearing a sexual nature that are not intended for exchange, but making the work environment uncomfortable and unsafe, causing physical, mental, and work performance harm to the work and life of the person being harassed.
3. Some other notable regulations
a. According to the LC: the prevention of SH at the workplace is addable to the labor regulations along with other contents in accordance with the law. Specifically:
- Not being subject to SH act at the workplace;
- Employee has the right to unilaterally terminate the labor contract without prior notice in case of being subject to SH at the workplace;
- Employer can apply disciplinary dismissal to the employee who commits SH act at the workplace if it is specified in the labor regulations; and
- Prevention of SH act at workplace is one of the contents that parties negotiate for collective labor agreements.
b. According to Decree No. 167/2013/ND-CP on sanctioning of administrative violations: act of "having gestures, words being brutal, provocative, teasing, offending the honor or dignity of others" can be fined up to VND300,000.
c. According to the Penal Code 2015: act of "seriously offend the dignity and honor of others" can be subject to a warning, a fine of from VND10,000,000 to VND30,000,000 or non-custodial probation up to 03 years.

Lennar Homes may be looking to expand its vast Storey Lake community in Kissimmee with land previously slated for a WestGate Resorts timeshare community.
The 73-acre site is immediately south of Storey Lake, and behind the Super Target on W192 in Kissimmee. Lennar has a purchase contract for the property.
Westgate's holding company has owned the undeveloped land since buying it in 1993 for $6 million. A joint stormwater pond that serves the Target store occupies several acres. The rest was approved in 2007 as a Planned Development to include hotels, timeshares and a mix of tourist-themed retail development.
Osceola's Development Review Committee on Wednesday approved a request from Lennar to rezone the property to Tourist Commercial, which allows short-term rental uses and high density residential. The request next goes to the Planning Commission before final approval from the Board of County Commissioners.
Storey Lake, located at the intersection of Osceola Parkway and Vineland Road (S.R. 535), is approved for approximately 2,000 homes. The community offers condos, townhomes, vacation homes and single family homes. The clubhouse now under construction features a resort pool with lazy river, a splash park, sport courts and a miniature golf course.
Osceola Planning Director Kerry Godwin said Lennar officials have not met with the county regarding plans for the property, nor have they filed any preliminary concept plans.
Although the site can only be accessed via Target Boulevard, it could easily be connected to Storey Lake through an extension of Storey Lake Boulevard, according to Principal Engineer Jose Gomez.
Lennar filed for a formal wetland determination this week with the South Florida Water Management District.
Westgate and Lennar officials declined to comment for this story.

Steel Billet Cash Price Drops 7.1%
The steel billet cash price saw the biggest decline of the day, dropping 7.1 percent on the LME to close at $130.00 per metric ton on Friday, June 28. Also on the LME, the 3-month price of steel billet showed little movement last Friday, hovering around $160.00 per metric ton.

This is one a series of well-designed maps by Lucien Boucher for Air France during the 1950's. This image, created in 1952, colorfully presents the routes of Air France as well as vignette of peoples of the globe in their native settings. The details and colors are very fine and crisp and this image is both historically relevant as well as decorative.
Lucien Boucher (1889-1971) was a French graphic designer and illustrator most known to collectors for his many beautiful Air France travel posters. Boucher got his start as a cartoonist for the French humor magazine, Le Rire before moving into product and cinema poster design. He experimented in Surrealism, as well as Art Deco in his early advertising.
Boucher's unique mid-century painting style combines his Art Deco influence and traditional painting to offer a fresh look for advertising. His body of work for Air France is well regarded by collectors as a leader in the mid-century style. Among these artworks are Boucher's series of "Planispheres," which depicted the ever-expanding travel routes of the Air France airline. He completed the series of Planispheres from 1934-1962, continually developing the imagery with a fresh approach.

Ghislaine Maxwell is the former girlfriend, partner and alleged procurer of underage girls for Jeffrey Epstein, the multi-millionaire financier and registered sex offender who was arrested and charged with federal child sex trafficking charges. Maxwell has been accused of procuring and recruiting young girls for Epstein. She was named as a co-conspirator in the first case against Epstein but was granted immunity.
Epstein is reported to have committed suicide while in a federal lockup in New York City, though the medical examiner has yet to officially determine the cause and manner of death, as provided in a statement emailed to Heavy Sunday.
Prior to Epstein's indictment in the new case in July 2019, Maxwell had resurfaced as part of the fight by journalists to reveal files from the prior case. The Miami Herald filed a motion in federal court in 2018 to have the whole Epstein case file unsealed. Now, major media outlets have signed on to the appeal including The Washington Post. Maxwell is among those who do not want the documents unsealed, the Herald reported.
Epstein, 66, was a Florida Department of Law Enforcement registered sex offender/predator. Epstein was convicted on one count of procuring a person under age of 18 for prostitution in 2008. He did just 13 months of a sweetheart 18-month sentence. And he has been free to roam; FDLE records show he's left Palm Beach County to stay in New York, Paris and the Virgin Islands among other locations.
Maxwell was Epstein's one-time girlfriend and then, allegedly became his procurer, or as is known more colloquially, pimp or madam. She has categorically denied this allegation.
Maxwell is a philanthropist and was focused on ocean conservancy founding a non-profit to clean up "the high seas." She scuttled it in the wake of Epstein's arrest.
Following Epstein's death, it's reported investigators may be looking more closely at Maxwell, if they can find her.
Here's what you need to know about Ghislaine Maxwell:
1. Maxwell Is the Daughter of Disgraced British Media Magnate Robert Maxwell
Maxwell is the youngest child of the disgraced media mogul Robert Maxwell, whose body was found floating in the waters off of the Canary Islands near his yacht named the Lady Ghislaine. An inquest found the death accidental despite rumors. She said in 1997 that she thought he was murdered. After his death, it was learned that Maxwell had raided the pension assets of the Mirror Group Newspapers he owned.
Maxwell, who owned the New York Daily News, was a Czechoslovakian-born British millionaire and former Labour MP.
Ghislaine Maxwell, who attended Oxford University and founded the Kit Kat Club for women, would move to New York City and begin her life as a Manhattan socialite after her father's death.
And it was in New York that she met Epstein.
2.Maxwell Moved to the US, Met Epstein & They Dated. They Were Friends With Donald Trump & Prince Andrew
Epstein was a billionaire and Maxwell an heiress and socialite with royal friends, including Prince Andrew. It's been widely reported that the three socialized together.
Maxwell was very well-connected and counted supermodels, presidents, and royalty as friends.
Other highly placed friends included Donald J. Trump and his then-girlfriend Melania Knauss. In fact, it was at Mar-a-Lago that Maxwell would meet the young girl that would soon become a victim, given her age, of the sexual abuse at the hands of Epstein and Maxwell, she'd later allege.
3.The Couple Stopped Dating But She Allegedly Procured Young Girls as Sex Slaves for Epstein
The Miami Herald spent months doing a deep dive investigation into Epstein's alleged sex trafficking, which would have been accomplished in part with his partner and former lover Maxwell. Virginia Roberts Giuffre came forward and told her story. As a teen runaway, she became one of a number of Epstein "sex slaves."
According to Radar Online, which published the transcript of a call between Roberts and her lawyers, Epstein preferred the teens he had sex with the wear latex and bondage outfits and to dress up as even younger school girls. Roberts was reported to have said that Maxwell, who is alleged to have been Epstein's pimp, encouraged young girls she described as sex slaves to dress up for him.
"Ghislaine would take me to dress up to surprise J.E., or Jeffrey would ask me to get dressed up. That would include wearing a tiny little skirt with nothing underneath, a white-collared shirt that you would be wearing to school with a tie in it, tied up in a bow, my hair in pigtails, stockings on up to my knees, and I would go in there and act like a kid and we'd do role-playing," Page Six reported on the transcript.
Roberts said Epstein pimped her out to the Duke of York, who denied the accusation.
Roberts also alleged she was offered to attorney Alan Dershowitz, and that there are at least 100 victims of Epstein, many allegedly procured by Maxwell, it's alleged.
Maxwell said Roberts is a liar.
4. Roberts-Giuffre Sued Maxwell For Slander After the Socialite Called Her Accuser a Liar
Maxwell was sued for slander by Roberts Giuffre after the heiress called her a liar. Roberts Giuffre says she was 15 when Maxwell set her up with Epstein in 1999. Maxwell denied that and discredited the woman.
In 2015, Roberts Giuffre's lawsuit charged that Maxwell "undertook a concerted and malicious campaign to discredit [Roberts] and to so damage her reputation that [Roberts]' factual reporting of what had happened to her would not be credited," Page Six reported. By 2017, a settlement was negotiated and although the terms have not been made public, it's been reported Maxwell settled with Roberts Giuffre.
Now, Maxwell is seeking to have all the Epstein court case files kept under seal.
5. Maxwell Founded TerraMar, an Ocean Conservation Nonprofit That She Scuttled After Epstein's Arrest. She's Been Involved Social & Civic Events & Benefits, Including One in 2014 For Kids
She may have founded TerraMar, but she sank it just after Epstein's arrest. And a number of videos were scuttled and delete videos from YouTube and other online locations that featured her and her ocean conservation project. But not all.
On the website, an announcement:
"The TerraMar Project is sad to announce that it will cease all operations. The web site will be closed. TerraMar's mission has always been to connect ocean lovers to positive actions, highlight science, and bring conscious change to how to people from across the globe can live, work and enjoy the ocean. TerraMar wants to thank all its supporters, partners and fellow ocean lovers. Thank you."
Previously, the website read TerraMar "aims to celebrate and protect those high seas."
Launched in 2012 in Monterey, Calif., it was "lifelong marine enthusiast Ghislaine Maxwell's brainchild." She's done TEDx talks on the project she let go down.
Maxwell has appeared at Women Inspiration and Enterprise (WIE) symposiums and myriad benefits including the Education Through Music (ETM) Children's Benefit Gala among others.

Senior Day Center – Pavillon Butini
The Challenge
Established in 1859, the Fondation Butini offers care facilities for seniors in need of support. Its main aim is to create "a normal and natural environment" for seniors. It employs 250 people at four facilities that meet different needs: two daytime and/or night care centers and two nursing homes.
One of these facilities, the Pavillon Butini, is a general daytime care center open to around 15 seniors who live at home and depend on care. It helps them continue to live at home by providing care and support and allows them to break up periods of solitude and share a social space, all while giving their loved ones some respite.
Keen to ensure the well-being of clients and staff, the Fondation planned to renovate the Pavillon with the aim of offering comfortable indoor spaces, shaded from excess heat and glare, without blocking views of the outdoors.
For clients who suffer from age-related problems with their vision, it is important to be able to control the level of contrast while preventing glare during everyday activities such as reading, watching films and performing manual tasks.
The Solution
The Fondation Butini opted to install SageGlass glazing in the dining and living rooms, where most of the center's activities take place. This dynamic glazing tints or clears according to the level of sunlight and on demand, offering patients and staff maximum natural light without the disadvantages that often come with it. It also helps preserve the view of the natural surroundings in all weather conditions, which blinds would not have been able to do.
The Benefits
With the installation of SageGlass in the Pavillon Butini, the Fondation can help its occupants enjoy maximum natural light and a permanent view of the outdoors — elements that have been shown to improve health and well-being.

For the last few years, Computer Logistics has worked to restructure and redefine its service offers and customer service processes. In short, we've been refining our business model—what it is to be a modern managed service provider in the IT support world.
We've achieved several milestones during these many months as we've shifted away from the old practices of traditional IT services toward fully integrated managed support. We've redesigned everything from the software applications we use and the technology providers we partner with to the way we handle customer service.
One of the last pieces of the puzzle for us in this redefinition was to change our physical location. The old location on Market Street was great in prior decades when we were engaged in some of the early services like computer repair, where we needed space. Over the years, our focus has changed somewhat, and we've needed to revamp the ways in which we do business and interact with clients.
As part of the physical move, we also split off the call
center (a part of our business many didn't know we offered). That part of the
business is now rebranded as Alive Virtual Assistants and has its own location downtown
on West Street.
Computer Logistics' new location is in the historic Pine Street School (1135 Pine Street, Suite 202, Redding, CA 96001). Please feel free to drop by and check out the new location. We love it and hope our clients will as well!

APCHA sending surveys to gauge HOA finances
The local affordable-housing authority that oversees ownership units in the program is sending out a survey to homeowner associations to get a handle on how many are underwater with their capital reserves and deferred maintenance.
It is a massive issue at some complexes, such as Centennial, where there is not enough money in the coffer to fix deteriorating buildings.
Elected officials in the city of Aspen and Pitkin County believe it's widespread throughout the program's 1,654 units but much of that is based on anecdotal evidence.
The Aspen-Pitkin County Housing Authority has been building an interim database for the past two years and counts 81 HOAs in the inventory.
"Our goal is to get good information so we can be of assistance," APCHA Executive Director Mike Kosdrosky said. "We are creating a baseline so that we can have an informed conversation about what's going on in the program."
City and county officials are looking at changing the governance structure of the program, based on their recent impasse on how to address the massive deficits homeowners associations face in their capital reserves, particularly at aging properties.
The city, county and APCHA have been grappling with how to address capital reserves in deed-restricted HOA communities for several years now.
During early discussions, city and county officials reiterated that public funds should only be used as a last resort and that any taxpayer dollars to current homeowners would have to be repaid at some value.
Solutions from the city and county have ranged between $2 million and close to $15 million.
Aspen and Pitkin County equally pay APCHA's administrative costs and manage the program through an intergovernmental agreement.
In a letter to HOA board of directors in the program, Kosdrosky wrote that the survey is part of its "Responsible Governance Assessment, Education and Assistance Plan."
The letter explains that participating in the survey is voluntary, however, if associations do not participate the HOA may result in becoming ineligible to receive potential financial assistance, should it become available.
The survey asks for basic information, such as the name of the HOA, contact information and how many units are in the building.
It gets further in depth with what each HOA's 2018 annual operating budget is, their budgeted capital reserve annual revenue and what the current capital reserve fund balance is.
APCHA also wants to know the HOA's lowest and highest monthly operating assessments, as well as the high and lows of capital reserve assessment charges, and what they are based on.
Kosdrosky said APCHA is looking for information on how HOAs are managed — through a property management company, by the association itself or not at all.
The survey will be mailed to HOA board of directors and also will be available online. The deadline to complete the survey is Sept. 14.

Layer configuration¶
These settings are in.
QGIS Server tab¶
In, you can set different settings for QGIS Server :
- Short name is a machine readable name for the layer.
- dataUrl is the URL to a HTML or PDF presenting the data. It can be a link to the open data portal webpage.
If the link is empty indialog, the link in Lizmap will be automatically populated by the Lizmap plugin from set in this tab.
You can use the button in Lizmap to pick this value.
Add a alias on a field¶
Usually, the field names are defined without accent, spaces and can't be very long. Inand clicking on a field, you can add an alias.
This will be used to substitute the field name when possible for a more friendly name.
, you can the list of alias defined on the layer.
Customize the edition form¶
Inand clicking on a field, you can setup the form.
To set the editing tools for your layer fields:
- In.
- By selecting first a field on left panel, select the Widget type:
- To hide a field, choose Hidden. The user will not see the field in the form. There will be no content inserting. Use it for the primary key.
- To add a read-only field, unchecked Editable checkbox.
- Special case of the option Value Relation. You can use this option for a Lizmap map.
- For users to have access to information of the outer layer that contains the data, you must enable the publication of the layer as a WFS layer in.
Lizmap Web Client does not know the "QT Designer UI file" for form generation. Therefore only use the Autogenerate mode or Drag and drop mode for editing layers.
To make the field compulsory you have to define it as
NOT NULL in the properties of the table, in the database, not in QGIS –> Layer Properties.
All the editing tools are not yet managed by Lizmap Web Client. Only the following tools are supported:
- Text edit
- Classification
- Range
- Value Map
- Hidden
- Check Box
- Date/Time
- Value Relation
- Relation Reference
If the tool is not supported, the web form displays a text input field.
Advanced form¶
To group fields in different tabs, follow QGIS documentation https://docs.qgis.org/latest/en/docs/user_manual/working_with_vector/vector_properties.html#the-drag-and-drop-designer.
Lizmap can reproduce several behavior configured in QGIS :
Control visibility by expression. For example, you can toggle tab's visibility based on a checkbox state.
For that, we can create a field named
has_photodefined as a
Checkboxand a
phototab having
Control Visibility by Expressionchecked and
"has_photo" = true OR "has_photo" = 't'as Expression.
- Constraints defined by expression.
For example, you want to simply assert users correctly type a website URL beginning by http (of course, regex would be better but we keep it simple).
For that, we can create a field named
websitedefined as a
Text Edit, define
left( "website", 4) = 'http'as expression and
Web site URL must start with 'http'as Expression description.
- Filter expression for a Value Relation field.
For example, you want a field to automatically get the related value from another layer's field when drawing a point on the map. For that, we can create a field name
quartierdefined as a Value Relation to a
quartierslayer and set
intersects($geometry, @current_geometry)as Filter expression. We can also check
Not nulland
Enforce not null contraintto assert no NULL value can be set.
Server side simplification¶
For PostGIS layers, you can enable server side simplification. This infor each layers. You can change the default behavior for next new layer in .

Place of Interest
In 1403 Juan de Guzmán, Bishop of Calahorra y La Calzada, gave custody over the shrine and its lands to the Hieronymite friars of the Morcuera (Miranda de Ebro). Following Martin V's Papal Bull, (1419) it was made a monastery.
The Archdean of the Diocese of Calahorra y La Calzada, Diego Fernández de Entrena in 1423 paid for the reconstruction of the monastery in line with the style of the era. The painter Juan Fernández de Navarrete "El Mudo" from Logroño, started to train in this monastery in which he left works executed by his hand which no longer exist today.
In 1951 the Brothers of the Christian Schools, Hermanos de La Salle, acquired the monastery and rebuilt it on the ruins almost all in the neo-gothic style, under the direction of the architect Pedro Ispizua, perfectly harmonized by the new style of ancient structures.
At the present time, several parts can be visited: the Knights' Gate, which was the main doorway, the Gothic cloister of 1430, the 16th century King's Fountain, the modern sanctuary from the mid 20th century, the pilgrims' hall, and the tomb of the Archdean.

Support industries struggling with COVID-19
There are few opportunities for businesses to develop support industries in Vietnam amid the global economic crisis caused by COVID-19, according to economists.
Illustrative image (Source: VNA)
Hanoi (VNA) - There are few opportunities for businesses to develop support industries in Vietnam amid the global economic crisis caused by COVID-19, according to economists.
Dr Can Van Luc from the Research and Training Institute of the Bank for Investment and Development of Vietnam (BIDV) said the country is in the process of extensive and intensive global integration and many production chains such as mobile phones, electronic products, textiles and garments, footwear, farm produce processing, automobile, and oil refining, which are all key export sectors, are feeling the negative impact of COVID-19 due to the suspension of global supply chains and a shortage of materials.
Many production areas in Vietnam are heavily dependent upon material imports from China, the Republic of Korea, and Japan, so support industries have been unable to escape from the impact.
Pham Van Tai, General Director of the Truong Hai Auto Corporation (THACO), the largest automobile maker in Vietnam, revealed that the development of support industries in mechanical engineering is a strategic direction for localisation in global supply chains, enhancing competitiveness and increasing foreign direct investment.
Meanwhile, Deputy Director of the HCM City support industry development centre Le Nguyen Duy Oanh said there are not many opportunities for businesses in the field due to their limited capacity and low workplace skills. It is also difficult to manufacture diverse products due to a lack of technology.
To address this obstacle, she suggested enterprises push ahead with reforms and change administration mindsets while increasing their competitive edge./.
