Marina barrage
The Marina Barrage is a dam built across the Marina Channel in Singapore that serves three purposes - it creates a new water reservoir, provides flood control, and acts as a new lifestyle attraction. Construction began in 2005 and was completed in 2008. It works by using large gates that can be opened to release water during heavy rain and low tide, and pumps to remove excess water during high tide. The barrage helps alleviate flooding, allows for recreational activities on the reservoir, and increases Singapore's water catchment area.

The Marina Barrage built across the Marina Channel creates Singapore's 15th reservoir and first in the city's downtown area. It helps meet over 10% of Singapore's water demand through catchment of rainwater from its 10,000 hectare drainage area. The barrage also controls floods by releasing excess stormwater into the sea through crest gates and pumps. The constant water level makes the reservoir suitable for recreational activities and it has become a lifestyle attraction, with facilities like a green roof, solar panels, and gallery on environmental issues.

This document proposes a vision to enhance the waterfront in Qualicum Beach, BC in three ways:
1. Link the waterfront area to the downtown core and people through new walkways, recreational areas, and shellfish research facilities. This would strengthen connections between the ocean, town, and residents.
2. Improve resiliency by adding breakwater treatments like stair seating and expanding shellfish beds, allowing new uses of the interface between beach and seawall.
3. Inspire the plan with the strength and longevity of Japanese glass fishing floats, creating an environment that reflects Qualicum Beach's sense of place and supports living, working and playing.
New York's Next Great Waterfront Park - Urban Design
From The Municipal Art Society of New York, advocating for smart urban design, planning, and preservation through education and initiatives.
This report is a synthesis of the ideas generated from a day-long design charrette in June 2011, and represents the community’s vision for a new waterfront open space. MAS released the report to the NYC Economic Development Corporation (EDC) and their consultant for the project, AECOM, with the intention of guiding the future transformation of the former Con Ed Pier into a new community park.
This is the turning point for waterfront access along the East Side of Midtown and is a continuation of MAS’ long standing commitment to bringing New Yorkers back to the waterfront and ensuring that the communities have a voice in shaping their future.
Lake Caliraya in Laguna
Lake Caliraya is an artificial lake located in Laguna province, Philippines, created in 1939 by the construction of Caliraya Dam across the Caliraya River. The lake serves as a reservoir for hydroelectric power plants and has become a popular recreational area. Issues have included squatters occupying the land around the lake and threats from insurgent groups, but development of resorts and facilities has continued and property values remain high.
Hayling billy upgrade project
Hampshire County Council has resisted upgrading the Billy Tail trail on Hayling Island for 30 years, citing its nature reserve status and a managed retreat policy imposed by English Nature. However, the Environment Agency now controls the area and has a policy of holding the line to protect the trail. While funding is still needed, this removes Hampshire County Council's excuse for not upgrading the trail to an all-weather surface, which would benefit users like cyclists, walkers, disability vehicles and runners. Local running and cycling groups support upgrading the trail to improve its condition.
RiverFIRST site design and analysis-book
The Wetlands demonstration project would restore degraded wetlands along the Mississippi River and introduce public access. Key elements include:
1) Restoring native plantings and hydrology to create a dynamic wetland landscape along the river.
2) A trail network and boardwalks for public access that traverse high- and low-water zones, allowing exploration of the wetland.
3) An ecological education center to teach about wetland functions and values.

The document proposes a plan to redesign the Gardiner Expressway/Lake Shore Boulevard corridor in Toronto. It suggests reducing the amount of space dedicated to vehicles from over 80% currently to under 40% by widening sidewalks and adding a dedicated multi-use path. A green wall and stormwater features would be added along the northern edge. Intersections would be redesigned to slow traffic and prioritize pedestrians. This would transform the area from a barrier to a green, pedestrian-focused civic space connecting the city to Lake Ontario.
Urban redevelopment
The document discusses reimagining Sinhagad Road in Pune, India. It describes the current issues along the road such as traffic congestion, improper waste management, lack of storm drainage and street lighting. Specific problems are identified at various locations along the road including ambiguous spaces where garbage is thrown, bottlenecks at junctions, lack of continuity of footpaths and cycle tracks, and lack of dedicated parking and bus stop spaces. The proposal aims to address these issues by improving efficiency through clearer definition of spaces, instilling character and pride through unique design, and promoting environmentally sustainable solutions.

DISCOVERY OF THE LOST JOURNEY
Our mission is to ensure that the town of Pahang is recognized and developed to its full capacity. Through our partnership with KP synergies, we aim to spur both the job and economic growth by developing an Entertainment City which will benefit the people of Pahang as well as Malaysians across the country.”
District of Pekan and Pahang River –An Overview.
Located on the banks of the Pahang River50km south of Kuantan, Pekan is the royal town of the Malaysian state of Pahang Darul Makmur. Its name comes from a flower, the Bunga Pekan.
According to the old folk, the Bunga Pekan flower grows wild at the banks of Pahang River. Pekan town is said to have existed since the 17th century. Several Araband Chinesewriters mentioned Pekan.
Pahang River with 459 km in length is the longest river on the Malay Peninsula. The river begins at the confluenceof Jelaiand Tembelingrivers on the Titiwangsa Mountainsand drains into the South China Seathrough its river mouth named Kuala Pahang
From the mountainous upper reaches of Mount Tahan(2187 m) or locally called Gunung Tahan, it meanders in a south-easterly direction, passing Kuala Lipis, Temerloh, Chenor, Mengkarak and turning east at Lepar into the floodplain of Pekan, Kuala Pahangand drains in the South China Sea.
The banks of Pahang River was settled as early as 1400 by warriors and seafarers from around the Malay Archipelagosuch as Aceh, Riau, Palembangand Sulawesi, forming settlements.
In the old days, Pahang River and Muar Riverwere nearly connected at a place called Jempol, in Negeri Sembilan. This was because the Serting Riverflows into the Bera River, a tributary of the Pahang River.
Jempol Riverflows into Muar River. Trading boats from River Muar could continue their journey until they reach Kuala Pahang in Pekan, or Kuala Lipis to continue into Terengganu, Kelantan or Perak.
At Jalan Penarikan, the locals help will be required to pull the boats overland. The distance is about 300 meters and because of the pulling of boats overland, the route is named Penarikan, which is the Malay word for pulling.
Jalan Penarikan could have been discovered in the 14th century, way before the days of Malacca Empire. The Arabmerchants were actively trading as well as spreading Islam. When Malacca was discovered, they came to Malacca for trade and at the same time; the Pasaicame to Malacca too to acquire their daily sundries.
Coincidently, these are the same group of people whom they spread the religion to. The Arabs complained to the Pasai about the trials and tribulations of trading in Siambecause of the arduous journey through the Straits of Malacca, then on the Straits of Terbrau before they can continue the voyage through the South China Sea towards their destination in Siam.
This voyage which takes weeks is extremely lengthy and difficult. After listening to the grouses of the Arab merchants, the Pasai revealed that there was a short cut where they could avoid the arduous voyage
However, they have to pull their boats off shore for a kilometer or so. Learning of this, the Arabs endeavoured to try out this route.
One day, the Pasai show this route to the Arabs. First, they sailed from Malacca along the Muar River to reach Jempol River, where they have to pull the boats on shore for a short distance to get into the Serting River.
They then continue their journey along the Bera River to arrive at Kuala Tahan from which they proceeded to the South China Sea and finally to their destination in Siam.
The Arabs discovered that even though they have to go on land for a part of the journey, it was very much shorter. So from that day onwards, they decided to use this route and Jalan Penarikan became famous ever since.
Jalan Penarikan has also witnessed many significant events in history. The famous Malaccan warrior Hang Tuah, while on the run with Tun Teja, used Jalan Penarikan to flee to Pahang. The last Sultan of Malacca, Sultan Mahmud Shah, after the conquest of Malacca by the Portuguesehad als

Mangalavanam and old railway station ernakulam
The old Ernakulam Railway Station and adjacent Mangalavanam Bird Sanctuary have fallen into decay after being abandoned and neglected. The railway station, built in 1902, lost significance when the station was relocated south to be closer to the developing port. Meanwhile, uncontrolled development has degraded the bird sanctuary through pollution and disrupted the fragile mangrove ecosystem. Conservation efforts are needed to restore the abandoned station and revive the now-dead bird sanctuary, but it may be too late for the sanctuary due to the extent of environmental damage. Public support and government initiative are required to conserve these historic and environmentally important sites.

How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.

- 3. History By 1987, the government had successfully completed its ten-year drive to clean up Singapore River and Kallang River. It was at this time that then prime minister Lee Kuan Yew, now minister mentor, mooted the idea of damming up Marina Basin to create a large freshwater lake. However, this was not yet feasible with the existing technology. It was only in 2004 that the government set the wheels in motion by calling a tender for the project. The contract was awarded to local contractor Koh Brothers and construction began in early 2005.
- 4. Built across the mouth of the Marina Channel, the Marina Barrage creates Singapore's 15th reservoir, and the first in the heart of the city. With a catchment area of 10,000 hectares, or one-sixth the size of Singapore, the Marina catchment is the island's largest and most urbanised catchment. Together with two other new reservoirs, the Marina Reservoir will boost Singapore's water catchment from half to two-thirds of the country's land area by 2011. The Marina Barrage is the result of Minister Mentor Lee Kuan Yew's vision nearly two decades ago when he envisaged damming the mouth of the Marina Channel to create a freshwater reservoir.
