Little Feat: As Good as a Thrill
Bob Makin
For 50 years, Little Feat have been laying down irresistible grooves. A band's band, their fans include Bob Dylan, members of the Rolling Stones, the Grateful Dead, Widespread Panic, Dave Matthews Band, and Phish, who often feature "Spanish Moon" in their sets and played the entire Waiting for Columbus live album on Halloween in 2010.
Despite the strong influences whose torch they've carried and the strong influence they've inspired in generations of rockers, Little Feat are not in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, an oversight fans wrestle with every October when a new list of nominees is revealed. Yet, that's not going to stop them from enjoying the band's 50th anniversary tour, which includes stops on March 8 at New York City's Beacon Theatre, and March 9 at Scottish Rite Auditorium in Collingswood. The Beacon show will include an opening set by Larry Campbell and the Midnight Ramble Band, and a guest appearance by Connor Kennedy, a New York musician with whom co-founding Feat vocalist-keyboardist Bill Payne has worked frequently.
Payne, Little Feat's only original member, spoke in the following interview about the band's anniversary, influence, and legacy, as well as his moonlighting as the keyboardist in the Doobie Brothers.
As a founding member, what has been the main thing about Little Feat that has brought you the most joy during the past 50 years?
I would say that the connection between our music and other bands, large and small…. The Rolling Stones [came to see us] in Amsterdam in 1975. We've had a good influence on other musicians and other bands. The same things have rolled into us as well. One of the things Lowell [George, Little Feat former guitarist/vocalist] talked about in the '60s was the idea of not being a household name. That would not be necessary, or to make hit records, but to impact the musical community. We've certainly done that, and it's very gratifying.
It's been great to see so many young music fans get turned onto the band because they're fans of Phish, Dave Matthews Band, Widespread Panic, and so many others Little Feat have influenced. For that reason and others, comment on why Little Feat should be in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.
I can think of several reasons, not least of which, Little Feat, like other bands, encompass the spirit of rock 'n' roll. The rules of playing music don't always apply. That's what rock 'n' roll is. It's about a spirit of creativity, freeness, a youthfulness that's not tied to age. I think Little Feat hit a lot of those categories and our influence is huge. For 50 years, we've been carrying a torch for something that is really vital to people and music. Little Feat is bigger than anybody in this band, including Lowell George, but inclusive of everything we've done collectively since Lowell passed away and where we're going in the future. We're on our fifth generation now. That should be recognized. Not that I'm pining to be in the Hall of Fame, but I know our fans would love for us to be in there.
Will Little Feat be releasing a 50th anniversary box set or anthology, or is there a studio album in the works?
We're hoping to. I don't know if an album is the type of thing that people want these days. We might make three to six tracks and release them. If we cut three to six songs, I don't think it's that much of a stretch to do another four songs and create an album. It's just with the business side, who would want to release it? Those are the kinds of questions we have. The business doesn't come first. The music does, so we'll see. I've written 20 songs with Robert Hunter and written four songs with Paul Muldoon, and I've got at least 25 to 30 others.
How did you hook up with Hunter?
I never met him. We did it all over the Internet. The guy is obviously the best lyricist in the world. Sometimes I send him music, sometimes he sends me lyrics. The music is in the lyrics, but it takes a composer to draw it out.
Is it accurate to say that you actually tour more with The Doobie Brothers these days than Little Feat? Why is that?
I do tour with the Doobies. That's the band I have an allegiance to these days for the simple reason that Little Feat in the last six or eight years haven't done lot a touring. Before the Doobie Brothers, I did a brief stint with Leftover Salmon, a band from Colorado. I loved playing with those guys. I've played with the Doobies since 1972. I've done a couple of tours with them. It's financial security for my family. And I'm happy to be a part of their family. I got lucky in that they are allowing me to schedule touring with Little Feat for the 50th anniversary. I'm blessed to have Little Feat and always will be, and I'm proud of my work with the Doobies.
In 2017, members of Feat and the Doobies performed together in Playing for Change's We Are One Concert. And, of course, you were label mates on Warner Bros. who must have performed or at least jammed together now and then in the '70s. But have Little Feat toured with The Doobie Brothers since you joined the Doobies' touring band in 2015 or are there any plans to?
I would do that in a heartbeat. I would love to see that happen whether it's a tour or a few gigs. If I could wave a magic wand, I would combine forces.
My favorite live album is Waiting for Columbus, especially your magical piano solo on "Dixie Chicken." Out of all the feedback you've gotten about that performance over the years, which has meant the most to you and why?
Such an iconic record, I've run into a few players over the years who've said, 'When I was a kid, I listened to that record. My mother brought me to a concert, and now I'm a keyboard player playing in this band.' That's pretty cool. The impact of what we were doing registered with people. It motivated them and inspired them. That's the way I felt about Ray Charles, the Stones and Little Richard. It's very humbling and gratifying.
While Little Feat originated out of Southern California, I've always thought you sounded more like a New Orleans band. Why and how have the sounds of New Orleans meant a lot to Little Feat?
Maybe these things come through the gene pool. I was born Waco, Texas, and my parents married in New Orleans. Kenny (Gradney, bassist) is from Southern California, but his parents had ties to New Orleans and Louisiana. I think Sam (Clayton, percussion) did, too. In terms of music, listening to blues and the blues resurgence in the '60s, a lot came over with the Stones and the Yardbirds, a lot of English bands. But within that context, we were starting to hear other styles of music. One was Clifton Chenier…. Professor Longhair, Fats Domino, Dr. John, Allen Toussaint, Lee Dorsey. It's part of what made up our vocabulary. It's like when children pick up Spanish or French. I have a granddaughter who's 10 who speaks beautiful Spanish. I admire when people leave themselves open to influences, and that comes through food, books, language. It sets off areas of the world we want to see whether it be in our own backyard. Those things give life deeper, more enriching meaning. That comes out through music, and in this case, Little Feat was absorbing the music of New Orleans. That was a very small part of it but enough of it to throw it out to people. We were not from New Orleans, but why not play that? Just because you're not from Hamburg, Germany, doesn't mean you shouldn't play Beethoven. It's what we brought to the table and how we expressed ourselves.
A band that reminds of Little Feat a lot is New Orleans Suspects. What did you think of their recent live tribute to Little Feat?
It was a surprise for all of us. They asked me to sit in. We broke into "Sneakin' Sally through the Alley."
What do you miss the most about Lowell George and why?
He was my mentor. I miss that guy I could sit and talk with and share hopes and dreams and aspirations. We could talk about anything under the sun: books, music. That's what was important to us. I would have loved for that guy to continue that journey. He was such an incredible musician. The technique he used to play and to sing, his phrasing. His genius was in his phrasing, but he was also a terrific songwriter, a wonderful lyricist. Thankfully, we have what he left us. It's a very challenging repertoire and such great stuff.
How and why has Little Feat been able to endure so long without Lowell?
It wasn't all about Lowell. He didn't write "Oh Atlanta," "All that You Dream." He didn't write "Tripe Face Boogie." A lot of the direction he didn't come up with. It was a band, and within the band, we got a lot of input from a lot of different people. But with what he did contribute, it's easier to look at one person rather than four or five or six or whatever it is. When you look at the Rolling Stones, most people focus on Keith Richards and Mick Jagger, and I said that in reverse order than most people would say it. But I was focusing on Brian Jones when he was in there and Bill Wyman and Charlie Watts. It took eight years to ask the question whether to attempt to do Little Feat without Lowell… and sure enough, the chemistry was there, and it still sounds like Little Feat.

LG Electronics begins building R&D centre in Đà Nẵng
Korea's LG Electronics and Trung Nam Land JSC inked an agreement on October 30 with a vision to transform Đà Nẵng into the centre of technology and R&D in Việt Nam, creating a mini 'Silicon Valley'.

ĐÀ NẴNG — Korea's LG Electronics and Trung Nam Land JSC inked an agreement on Friday with a vision to transform Đà Nẵng into the centre of technology and R&D in Việt Nam, creating a mini 'Silicon Valley'.
The agreement marks LG Electronics' commitment to building its second R&D centre in Việt Nam after just one month of preparation.
The Korean giant previously signed a Memorandum of Understanding for the first R&D centre in the city with Đà Nẵng's Investment Promotion Agency on October 6.
Following the agreement, LG Electronics will set up the centre at the Đà Nẵng Information Technology Park Tower in Liên Chiểu District, creating a space for software research and production to serve electronics manufacturing in Việt Nam as well as attracting more subsidiaries of LG from Korea to Đà Nẵng and Việt Nam.
LG Electronics said it would boost co-operation with universities and vocational colleges in Đà Nẵng to train human resources and high-quality manpower for the centre.
Director of LG Vehicle Component Solution Development centre Jung Seung Min said the agreement was the first step in turning Đà Nẵng into a strategic location for LG Electronics and boosting R&D after two decades of investment in Việt Nam.
"I am so impressed with the development of Đà Nẵng's leadership vision. It's the reason we decided to build our second R&D centre in Đà Nẵng after the one we opened in Hà Nội four years ago," Jung Seung Min said.
"We hope to build Đà Nẵng into the biggest R&D centre for LG Electronics in Việt Nam, and a centre of advanced technology," he said.

Nguyễn Anh Huy from Trung Nam said the agreement marked the significant co-operation between a local business and Korean partner in turning Đà Nẵng into an attractive destination for global high-tech industries.
He said Trung Nam and LG Electronics would join hands to realise the 'dream' of a 'Silicon Valley' in central Việt Nam.
Last week, Trung Nam began construction of its first surface-mount technology (SMT) factory with a capacity of 6.2 million electronic products per year at the Đà Nẵng Hi-tech Park.
Đà Nẵng has been building the 341ha Đà Nẵng IT Park and calling for businesses from Silicon Valley and the US to invest in healthcare, high-tech industries, Artificial Intelligence, education, real estate and automation.
Two Silicon Valley-based businesses – Meritronics AMT Inc and Ai20X Silicon Valley –have already agreed to develop the park.
According to the latest report from the city, Đà Nẵng had drawn 868 foreign direct investment (FDI) projects with total registered capital of US$3.5 billion.
Korea is one of the top five foreign investors in Đà Nẵng with 232 projects worth $390 million.
The South Korea Trade and Investment Agency (KOTRA) also opened a representative office in Đà Nẵng to promote investment and connections with Korean investors in 2018.

17-18 Season Preview: Maryland
Melo Trimble might have saved Maryland basketball.
That seems like odd praise for someone who never got past the Sweet Sixteen, or won a conference Player of the Year award. The Terps went 3-3 in NCAA Tournament games while Trimble was on the floor. And this is a program that's won a national championship, just 15 years ago.
But just prior to the arrival of Trimble, the program was in disarray. In its last season in the ACC, the Terps went 17-15, and did not make the NIT field. The team then lost several players to transfer. And while Trimble headlined a nice incoming class, it was probably optimistic to expect him to put up all-conference numbers as a freshman.
But he did just that. And the Terps won 28 games, some of them very close, and that was the first of a three-year run in which Maryland went 79-25.
There was help along the way of course (Diamond Stone, Dez Wells, Jake Layman, etc.), but Trimble was very clearly Maryland's best player over that span. And now he's gone, and it's time to see if the Melo Era was an aberration within a long decline, or the beginning of the resurgent program.
The good news is that the foundation appears to be in much better shape than it was three seasons ago. Trimble won't be easily replaced, but aside from him, you have Damonte Dodd—who offered defense and inconsistency, role player LG Gill, and spot-up shooter Jaylen Brantley. Coming back is the trio of last year's better-than-expected freshmen. Anthony Cowan figures to slide into the full-time point guard role, where he played capably when tasked last year. Kevin Huerter is something like a combo guard with forward length, and Justin Jackson appears to be custom-made for the "three and D" NBA archetype.
The question marks for this team revolve around the interior. The Terrapins have options (Ivan Bender, Michal Cekovsky, transfer Sean Obi, and incoming freshman Bruno Fernando), so it's likely Mark Turgeon will patch together some kind of solution. And paired with the offensive firepower from the perimeter, there should be ample opportunity for production. Obi might be the most intriguing—after a strong freshman season at Rice, Obi transferred to Duke where injuries contributed to almost a total lack of playing time. He could be anything from non-factor to better than average power conference center.
I don't expect Maryland to slip all that much, if at all, in the first post-Melo season. And, depending on how the roster holds together over the next couple of seasons, there could be very big things ahead for this group. Who knows what would have happened, had Trimble opted to go somewhere else.
17-18 Season Preview: Michigan
It's been a decade, and I still don't think I've figured out John Beilein. Largely because of his success…
17-18 Season Preview: Iowa
We should be talking about Iowa more. That's not something you hear often outside of regularly-scheduled 4-year intervals. But…

The Masked Singer Winner on His Finale 'Ta-da!' Moment and Why One Judge in Particular Should've Known It Was Him
Kimberly Roots
TVLine.com December 19, 2019
Warning: This post contains spoilers for the Season 2 finale of The Masked Singer.
Will the Rentheads in the audience please raise your hands? Cool. (And the rest of you, please give us a moment.)

You know how there's that scene in the musical, at the Life Café right before the end of Act I, where Tom Collins and Maureen chant about revolution and such? The winner of The Masked Singer Season 2 spent plenty of time going over those lyrics with none other than the reality series' judge Nicole Scherzinger when they both starred in a 2010 Hollywood Bowl production of the Broadway show.
And yet, the singing competition's top dog — er, Fox — says he never worried about whether Scherzinger would recognize his voice underneath his Masked Singer character's monocle and fur.
"Worried? No. Hoped? Yes!" says Wayne Brady, who beat Flamingo and Rottweiler in the season finale and was crowned Season 2 champion Wednesday. (Read a full recap here.) "Call it ego. Especially during stuff like [Rent's] 'La Vie Boheme,' the two of us went over that bit that Maureen and Collins had over and over again, because it's such a wordy piece. So we listened to each other sing a lot." He laughs. "But the fact that she was one of the last people to pick up [on my identity], I was like, 'Ah, this is beautiful.' Because the story's just gonna be so much sweeter."
TVLine chatted with the Let's Make a Deal host — whose extensive TV resume includes Whose Line Is It Anyway?, How I Met Your Mother, The Bold and the Beautiful and an upcoming stint on Black Lightning — about waking up everyone who slept on his musical talents (dude's got a Grammy nomination under his belt!), freestyling that "Otis"-esque rap at the end of the episode and using Fox's singing competition as the perfect springboard to re-launch his music career.
TVLINE | Congratulations on your win!
I am on such a high and it's cool that the moment is finally here and I can say, "Yes, y'all were right." Or, I can say "Ha ha, y'all were wrong."
TVLINE | Do you get to take the Golden Mask home, or is that something you get to hold for a few minutes and then they take it back?
That one you get to hold for a few minutes. Once everything is finished, it's kind of like an Emmy or a Grammy: You get to hold it and take pictures, and you get it in the mail later on. So I think I'll get it in the mail. Which makes sense: If I were to take it home [then], and somebody came over to my house and saw it on the mantle, that would be awkward.
TVLINE | You mentioned several times during the season how the general public wasn't aware of your singing abilities. That was surprising to me — I'm a fan of Whose Line Is It Anyway? and I know you've done Broadway — but it seems like that's a common thing that you get? Like, "You're the funny guy, not the guy who can belt "I'll Cover You"?
Yeah — and thank you for knowing that I did Rent.. I look at myself like the story about the blind men and the elephant. Depending on which piece of the elephant they were touching, they each had a completely different idea of what it was. And I realized that in a culture where it's easy to just put people in a box, where you go, "Oh yeah, I'm a fan of Let's Make a Deal and that's what I watch, so I know that's what he does." Or "I like you on Whose Line and I know that's what you do." Or "I liked How I Met Your Mother or "I like this other thing." It's cool I've done so many things that people have a favorite. But then they're not looking at the guy in totality, because we don't exist in that golden age of showbiz, where everyone that was on TV could sing and dance, so it was a given. So that's where the disconnect comes in. I did this show as a way of bringing all of those different reins together and go, "Oh, OK!" People like yourself, you said that you watched Whose Line: If you are a real fan, then you know that in everything that I do, it is music-based. Because that is my first love. The comedy, the Broadway thing — it's always been what I've done before TV. I made my living in cover bands and doing regional theater all over the U.S. So this is a really cool way and amazing platform to really have that "ta-da!" moment to people who don't put the whole thing together.
TVLINE | The rap breakdown in "Try a Little Tenderness" in the finale obviously evoked the "Otis"-ness of the whole thing: Whose idea was that?
That's me. It's this full-circle thing. The very first musical revue show that I did in '96, right before I moved to Los Angeles, that's where I met my ex-wife Mandie [Taketa], who is my best friend in the world and my business partner and the mom of my daughter. She was in my corner this entire time to help me make all the creative decisions. So I did it as as tribute to her and as a tribute to where I started from. And that song was flipped into "Otis" by Jay-Z and Kanye [West], so I figured it was one of the dopest songs to perform. I loved the hip-hop nature of it, I loved the soul nature of it, and it let me do everything I needed to do.
TVLINE | And then you came back at the end with a freestyle! I assume that was all done right there, on the spot?
Oh, absolutely. That was all off the top.
TVLINE | You have an album coming out soon.
The name of the single that's coming out tonight is called "Flirtin' With Forever." It's a love song to music. I've flirted with music my entire career, and my life, and I've gone back and forth like, "Are we gonna do this thing or not?" I've been on a lot of dates with her, to Broadway and using it on daytime TV. I even got nominated for a Grammy but stepped away… But now, I am fully committed to her. So I am going to be making up for lost time. So that's why it's called "Flirtin' With Forever." The name of the EP that comes out at the end of January/beginning of February is called Been Here. Because that's the case: I've been here, doing what I do, and it's the answer to the first record, which was called A Long Time Coming. This is, "I'm still here."

'I've lost count of the bodies': Coronavirus in Texas a 'perfect storm'
سپتامبر 2, 2020 سپتامبر 2, 2020 از نیوز اسپات
In the Rio Grande Valley, it's hard to find anyone who hasn't been touched by COVID-19.
The pandemic ravaged the region – an overwhelmingly Hispanic area, where poverty, poor health and close-knit families put them on a collision course.
Dr Ivan Melendez, from Hidalgo County Health Authority, describes how obesity and diabetes have contributed to the crisis.
Almost a third of residents are also uninsured, many are undocumented too, afraid to seek medical help.
"I hate cliches, but this was the perfect storm," he said.
He's spent months rushing around trying to co-ordinate the coronavirus response.
We start the day with him in a rare moment of quiet – his morning prayer at home.
More from Covid-19
But he's soon off to visit Edinburg Regional Medical Centre, a hospital that's skilfully and thankfully turned a corner.
Image: Dr Ivan Melendez, from Hidalgo County Health Authority, says people have started to take the virus more seriously
They had to adapt when Texas opened up faster than many other states and a surge in infections followed.
We're taken to what used to be a conference room and has been converted into an intensive care unit.
There's little more than a handful of patients being intubated, but Dr Melendez said just weeks ago "it was filled to the brim with people everywhere".
He believes the close-knit community has started to take the virus more seriously, wearing masks and social distancing.
Patient numbers have reduced significantly. But he's conscious too, that may in part be because some of the most fragile people in the area "who were barely holding on, have just gone".
Gustavo Ortiz is 55 and has pneumonia from COVID-19. But he's also terrified his business will fall apart.
So many here are under intense financial pressure. It is a stark reminder of the health and wealth gap that pervades this country.
Another challenge that's hit this area is the process of transporting the dead – the grim responsibility of Juan Lopez.
Like the doctors in the hospital, he's seen a reduction in numbers. But he's still shocked by the volume.
He said he's still moving up to 20 bodies a day. "For the last six months, I've dealt with 1,000 bodies. I've lost count," he said.
Image: Juan Lopez says he has lost count of the bodies he's had to move
Some have lost more than most of us could imagine.
Both of Priscilla Garcia's parents died – just four days apart. She hasn't been able to have a funeral for them yet.
"It's really sad because it's not normal to go through that. To mourn our parents and not be able to say goodbye to them," she said.
Image: Priscilla Garcia's parents died four days apart
Funeral Director Tim Brown is doing all he can to support bereaved families. But they must mourn at a distance.
Two weeks ago he had 106 COVID-19 victims. Today, he has 69. It's a decline, but he still feels overwhelmed.
"We went from normal business one day to knocking down walls. It's taken a huge personal toll," he said.
"I didn't sign up to run bodies through homes. I wanted to care for my community… People are talking about first responders. But there's a big movement of last responders."

Recently he's been arranging the funeral for his friend, Jorge Cabrera, a celebrated police officer who died with COVID-19.
Colleagues and friends have to drive by the casket in their patrol cars, waving at his family to pay their respects.
It is deeply moving and deeply sobering.
Jorge is now one of more than 148,000 dead in this country.
More than six million have been infected. It is not a nation or a region out of the woods yet.

EUROCONTROL supports both the standardisation and implementation process. Once standards have been written, there is still a lot of work to do to ensure a harmonized implementation across Europe. Harmonization is important because it contributes to safety, establishes best practises and creates economies of scale.
This is especially true when it comes to support tools. Independent developments would be inefficient and increase the cost of implementation.
Some of the tools focus on data quality – especially with the move from navaid-based navigation to coordinate-based navigation, – getting coordinates right becomes a matter of avoiding operational hazards all the way up to CFIT.
Making such tools available free of charge ensures that they are accessible to all partners working on implementation, regardless of their individual budgets. The development of these tools is always the result of close coordination between implementing organisations.
The tools below are all available free of charge.
This tool illustrates the implementation status and plans for PBN final approaches in ECAC. It includes RNP APCH and RNP AR APCH.

Lawmakers and community leaders call on MTA to address crowding and unsafe conditions at York Street station
September 23, 2021 Brooklyn Eagle Staff
State Sen. Brian Kavanagh at the podium, with Assemblymember Jo Anne Simon at left Eagle photo by Delilah Johnson
State Sen. Brian Kavanagh, Assemblymember Jo Anne Simon and Councilmember Stephen Levin were joined on Thursday by representatives of the offices of U.S. Rep. Nydia Velázquez and Brooklyn Borough President Eric Adams, along with community leaders, outside the F train's York Street subway station to underscore the urgent need for the MTA to address overcrowding, lack of accessibility and unsafe conditions at the DUMBO-area stop.
The MTA has not put forth a plan to address these conditions and has missed its commitment to provide the community with a feasibility study on a long-sought second entrance or other station improvements by June 30, 2021. The station's one staircase for entry and exit and lack of elevators or escalators present significant concerns about safety, congestion, and accessibility, especially as recent development in the neighborhood has caused an increase in riders.
"It is abundantly clear that something needs to be done to reduce overcrowding and improve safety at York Street station. The need has become even more urgent during the past year—as more residential buildings and other developments are built. There has been a significant increase in the number of residents and visitors in this area and the station continues to be overwhelmed," said Kavanaugh, who represents the area.
"If the MTA concludes a second entrance is not feasible, then it should provide the community with other substantive alternatives to address these issues," he added.
"Our mass transit should be safe, accessible, and reliable—but that is just not the story at the York Street station. The station's lone staircase, crowded platform, and lack of elevators combine together to create an unsafe situation for everyone, and with no accessibility for people with disabilities. I've joined the community and my colleagues for years in urging the MTA to improve this station, especially as the ridership at this station has increased dramatically over the last decade," said Simon.

Levin said, "I stand here with my fellow electeds and community leaders demanding that the MTA NYCT produce the now-overdue feasibility study which the community was promised. York Street Station has been the focal point of community efforts over most of the years I have been in office, centered on its lack of accessibility, its single egress and dangerous conditions as the station and platform are congested during rush hours."
Brooklyn Community Board 2 Chairperson Lenue "Lenny" Singletary said, "Far from being the industrial area at the opening of the York Street station in 1936, DUMBO is a bustling mixed-use community of residents and office workers as well as a tourist destination with a world renowned park and a photographer's dream landscape. Yet in 2019, almost 4 million riders entered or exited a subway station with a single egress."

Alexandria Sica, president of the DUMBO Improvement District, commented, "York Street is kind of like the Penn Station of Brooklyn: It's too cramped, a long unpleasant walk, and definitely not the first impression visitors should have of our incredible Borough of Brooklyn! Fixing the F Train at York Street is a safety imperative for all who live, work and visit DUMBO. It's an economic imperative, and an accessibility mandate. … More companies are going to keep looking to Brooklyn and our infrastructure needs to be ready."
The DUMBO Neighborhood Alliance said, "The DUMBO Neighborhood Alliance has advocated for a second entrance and egress at the York Street subway for decades along with Community Board 2 and our neighbors in Vinegar Hill and the Farragut residences. The city has up-zoned our neighborhoods before planning for the necessary infrastructure mitigation to meet the demands of the proposed development and our growing community."

Mallory Kasdan, co-founder of DUMBO Action Committee, said, "Earlier this year, DAC worked with neighboring groups to extract community concessions for 69 Adams, yet another residential and commercial tower that was given the go-ahead to build. Through this process, the MTA agreed to study York Street, our neighborhood's problematic subway station, so they could devise a plan before something tragic happens."
Farragut Stakeholders said, "This problem is nothing new. The Farragut Community has simply watched the growth of need and the failure of the station structure to support that need."

On March 18, 2021, MTA representatives presented at a meeting of the Transportation Committee of Brooklyn Community Board 2 and announced that the agency was conducting an active study to figure out how to construct a second entrance at the station. In an April 28, 2021 letter, the MTA said they expected to provide the results of the study to the community by June 30, 2021. The agency also wrote that if a new entrance is not feasible, it would explore improvements to the existing entrance.

Q: Laravel Query Multiple times on ViewServiceProvider I put my global variable using view->with() on ViewServiceProvider.php but the problem is it query multiple times on single page. is this a problem or it's really just this? it shows multiple times select * from weather where id = 1 below

A: Yes, so the problem here is because you are using * for the view composer which means that you want to execute this code for every single view that is being rendered. A better approach is to include it to the partial that uses the weather instance, for example:
view()->composer('partial.nav', function($view) {}); // this will be used only on the navigation partial view.

// multiple views like this:

view()->composer(
    ['profile', 'dashboard'],
    function($view) {}
);

// or create a view composer class and register it as a singleton
$this->app->singleton(\App\Http\Composers\WeatherComposer::class);

by Patten, Sharon (American, 1943-1995)
Categorized in Painting
Born in Sedalia, Missouri, Patten was an only child whose parents divorced when she was very young. She grew up close to her grandfather, Marion Hall, who sparked her early love of horses. In 1965 she graduated with a B.A. in German from the University of Kansas. Later, when one of her favorite horses was accidentally electrocuted, she suffered a bout with mental illness. In a television interview nearly twenty years later, Patten recalled with certainty that it was this ?sick and pitiful? period in her life which led to her discovering she really wanted to be an artist. She acted on this realization and received her B.F.A. from the Kansas City Art Institute in 1979. The unique and rather eccentric style of art that Patten brought to her work had no precedent in the Kansas City area. Her tendency to overload canvases with layer upon layer of oil paint with a palette knife gave her works a dramatic and emotional quality. Patten preferred working with canvases of up to nine feet or more in size. Patten?s independent vision resulted in wide recognition in her short sixteen years as an artist. In 1988 she won the John Simon Guggenheim Fellowship with just a few slides and a one-page resume. Her work was featured in Art in America in June of 1995. Patten was 52 when she died in December 1995, a few short months after receiving the news she had liver cancer.

Take care to store your jewelry safely. Boxes, holders, compartments, and hooks are all valuable tools for storing jewelry safely. Jewelry should not be lumped together in a pile. Not only can it damage finer, fragile pieces, but it can also make a tangled mess out of chains.
When you go shopping for sterling silver jewelry pieces, take with you a magnet and a monocle. You can detect fake sterling silver with the magnet, since non-precious metals are drawn to magnets. Your sterling silver jewelery should always be imprinted if it is real. The stamp may read ".925" or "ster". If you don't see a stamp of any sort on a piece, then be wary of whether it is actually silver or not.
Do some research on the gem in your new piece of jewelry before you buy. There are three different types: natural, synthetic and imitation. Synthetic stones are lab created jewels, while imitation stones are normally colored glass. The difference here, however, is that synthetic is man-made in a laboratory while natural is found buried in the earth.
Before buying a new item of jewelry, do a little research on recent trends. You will enjoy your jewelery even more if you can get it on sale.
TIP! Before purchasing a new pieces, look at the latest jewelry trends. Getting a great deal on beautiful bauble makes getting it even more enjoyable.
If you like to collect costume jewelry pieces, become very choosy about each piece's condition. Costume jewelry make good investments and they can be costly, but an item that shows major signs of usage will be a poor investment of your time and money. Pieces that are in great shape will fetch you better prices down the road, should you choose to sell them.
You should carefully consider how to best care for your jewelry. There's an ideal way to clean every different type of setting and stone. A treatment that polishes one stone may scratch another stone. It's best to speak with a jeweler before you attempt to care of an unfamiliar piece of jewelry.
Costume jewelry should be treated differently than your other jewelry. Costume jewelry is often put together using glue and other adhesives, unlike stoned that are set using metal. Don't submerge costume jewelry in water or clean it with harsh chemicals. Simply wipe it with a damp warm cloth, followed by a soft, dry cloth. This will ensure that all of your costume jewelry looks like it did the day you bought it.
Jewelry has a long-standing and well-deserved reputation as a go-to gift. This article will guide you to the perfect jewelry for every woman in your life; whether you are shopping for your mom, wife, daughter or even yourself.


In Zambia, there is little to no occurrence of solar pumps with chargeable battery systems. The systems are available from suppliers, but the big contractors that WaterAid Zambia works with do not have any experience installing, operating or maintaining battery solar systems for pumps.
Do you have some examples of such systems used in a rural setting, and any advice on their use?
For me your comments raise additional key questions. Understanding the total yield potential of the boreholes and recommended total pumping time will be critical in the first instance before any technical solution is sought. For me this would indicate whether or not an additional borehole is in fact indicated from this perspective, rather than a pumping technology perspective.
Then assuming the yield capacity is adequate, the next thing to consider is the bigger picture of the long-term sustainability of the overall system. Introducing additional costly components in my view only adds to the potential critical failure items on the system. If we choose to add batteries, have we determined the overall system efficiency and will be end up also adding additional panels in order to store enough energy and/or be able to pump and store at the same time. My fear is that the life-cycle of batteries are significantly shorter than that of the pump and the panels and when they fail they will simply not be replaced as deep-cycle batteries are really expensive.
At the end of the day, taking a wider view and looking at the overall lifecycle costs, the capability of the operators to maintain the systems, etc, I would suggest that investing in additional boreholes or alternative supplies may well be the more prudent decision (I was tempted to add "in the medium term" but in fact I think even in the short term).
I cannot see from the email stream what exactly the details of the project are, but assuming that this is a WaterAid funded project, I would suggest that we undertake a yield assessment, followed by a rough series of scenario costings of the different options (not only capital but a 10 year life cycle costing) which will in my view provide a solid basis from which to choose a route forward.
b) Batteries still need charging - this would then be via additional panels? Battery supplied solar systems usually do lengthen the time of the pump: it can run at more stable speed (instead of stop-go-slow-speed-up if the pump is directly dependant on the sun).
c) A temporary solution may be adding pumping capacity using a generator. Though far from ideal, this will allow monitoring: one can check if the boreholes sustain 16hr pumping (and allow 8 for recovery) Run this for at least 3 months during dry period to make reasonable stimate. If they do - then enhanced power will be cheaper than new boreholes.
d) Both generator supply and battery have a distinct risk of robbery.
e) Check if there is anybody already supplying generator power (e.g. for mill). Maybe that person can be hired in (and tariff will need to be adapted accordingly).
f) Whatever the solution is, costs will increase and thus contribution from community as well. Ensure that this is well covered! Maybe 12 lpppd is financially sustainable, but 40 lpppd is too expensive (as battery/generator/new boreholes are needed). That latter point obviously is a tough call.
Thanks for your valuable response, Arjen. We are now trying to mobilise funds to drill two boreholes and see how the situation will improve. Your comments are very helpful even as we are deciding on the way forward on solar systems.
My impression is that implementers usually avoid use of battery systems when installing solar for rural as they add extra costs and complexity to the system. Another set of things that could go wrong. They usually opt for sufficient storage to ensure there is water available outside pumping times. When we reviewed solar pumped systems in Uganda this was also an issue that came up.
Please see the attached brief from the International Energy Association which references the issue on page 11.
Thanks Vinny for the good information, and it is good to hear the perspective of these specialists.
Just from a simple perspective, it seems pumping through the night would be critical. In the case of the system in question in Zambia, the costs savings in would be significant. There, supply is an issue as the two boreholes only provide 40% of the demand to the system. Thus, increasing storage will not help unless the pumps can run through the night, and the only viable option I can see is increasing the flow through installing more boreholes – expensive.
Adamson - many thanks this is really helpful as it helps the respondents here understand the whole picture. This has evolved from a question about batteries for solar systems and then circled back to a recommendation that is similar to that which you have in the attached document. For me it looks like you should pursue additional boreholes. Would be interesting to know if hydro-power is something that is easily implementable i.e. is there local experience. On the other hand it might be easier to go with solar as then you have only one type of technology to maintain. Having additional boreholes may be more things to maintain but it also adds to the overall system resilience ensuring continued supply while a broken borehole is being repaired.
If the sustainable recharge of the borehole is so low that to meet the needs of the community it takes continuous pumping equal to or less than that low recharge rate. In that bad case, adding batteries and additional PV to make up for battery losses could allow for a low volume pump to run 24 hours and produce more water than a pump that flows well above the sustainable recharge of the borehole, but shuts down frequently due to drawdown low water level.
That is, if a borehole recharged at say 1 L/sec and you needed more than 3600 L times the locally available full sun hours (say 4 hours average), or more than ~15,000 L/day then your only choice would be a low volume pump at say 0.75 L/sec pumping 24 hours could give you about 64,000 L/Day. It could work but the efficiency would be so low that the cost of the extra solar panels, controls and batteries (plus maintenance) might equal the cost for another borehole, which would likely be a better solution.

Molecular detection of filarioid worms in dogs in Nigeria, West Africa
Kamani, J., Rojas, A., Msheliza, E., Shand, M. , Harrus, S. and Baneth, G. (2019) Molecular detection of filarioid worms in dogs in Nigeria, West Africa. Veterinarski Arhiv, 89(6), pp. 821-830. (doi: 10.24099/vet.arhiv.0282)
Full text not currently available from Enlighten.
The filarioid worm Dirofilaria repens has long been reported in dogs in Nigeria. Recent studies however, did not only report increased prevalence of D. repens but also the presence of Dirofilaria immitis. The classical diagnostic methods used in these studies have low sensitivity. Therefore, we screened 197 canine blood samples from seven states in Nigeria, using a highly sensitive and specific High Resolution Melt Real Time PCR and sequencing, to determine the prevalence and species of filarial worms infecting Nigerian dogs. Only one (0.5%) of the 197 samples screened was positive and showed a melt curve similar to Acanthocheilonema reconditum. Nevertheless, the sequence of this positive sample had only 94% similarity to its first GenBank match, a A. reconditum (JF461460.1). This could be a new filarioid species or a variant of an existing species and deserves further investigation. The low prevalence reported herein is in discrepancy with previous reports that showed the frequent presence of canine filariasis in Nigeria. A large scale survey is needed of filarioids infecting dogs in Nigeria, using highly sensitive and specific methods, to identify the present species and provide a baseline data on their national prevalence and geographic distribution.

Q: Is it possible to track where I am in an array with array_walk_recursive? Let's say you have an array like this:
array
(
    ['one'] => array (
                      ['wantedkey'] => 5
                      ['otherkey1'] => 6
                      ['otherkey2'] => 7
                     )
    ['two'] =>  => array (
                      ['otherkey1'] => 5
                      ['otherkey2'] => 6
                      ['wantedkey'] => 7
                     )
    ['three'] =>  => array (
                      ['otherkey1'] => 5
                      ['wantedkey'] => 6
                      ['otherkey2'] => 7
                     )
)

If you apply sth like this to the array you get all instances of 'wantedkey':
function test_print($item, $key) {
  if ($key === 'wantedkey') {
    print $item;
  }
}

array_walk_recursive($myarray, 'test_print');

But array_walk_recursive doesn't tell me (afaik) where I am in the array....is there any way to track the position where 'wantedkey' has been found in the example above with array_walk_recursive?
Any hint is highly appreciated, thanks in advance! :-)
I know this has been asked before but I'm wondering if anyone has found a solution yet...

A: Use RecursiveArrayIterator if you need to track element position and hierarchy.

A: You know exactly where you are in the array at any given time, by virtue of the recursive definition.  Since you have to provide a smaller and smaller array on each successive call, you can see exactly where you are based on the size of the array.

A: Ok, RecursiveArrayIterator is working exactly as expected :-)
A working example can be found here:

Q: Синтаксис инициализации const членов класса Есть класс
class object
{
  public: object();
  private: const double mass;
};

Инициализация const double mass в конструкторе отрабатывает только так:
object::object(): mass(1) { }

Почему не проходит такой вариант?
object::object() {
   this->mass = 1;
}

И как в таком случае инициализировать const члены класса, которые должны предварительно высчитываться относительно входных параметров конструктора?
Какие варианты в C++ удобны для объявления/инициализации const членов класса?

A: Когда выполняется тело конструктора, то все члены данных объекта уже созданы.
Поэтому в этом конструкторе
object::object() {
   this->mass = 1;
}

в предложении
   this->mass = 1;

применяется оператор присваивания, который нельзя использовать с константными объектами.
Если вам нужно определить значение константного члена данных на основе некоторых вычислений, то в качестве инициализатора используйте некоторую, например, статическую функцию - член класса.
object::object( some_argument ): mass( some_function( some_argument ) ) { }

Аргументами функции не обязательно должны быть аргументы конструктора. Можно использовать статические члены данных класса, не статически члены данных, которые уже были инициализированы в списке инициализации (лги в объявлении класса должны предшествовать,  или объекты, которые находятся в области видимости определения конструктора.
Ниже показан пример
#include <iostream>

class Object
{
public:
    Object( double x ) : x ( 2 * x ), mass( init( this->x ) )
    {
    }

    double get_mass() const { return mass; }

private:
    double x;
    const double mass;
    static double init( double x )
    {
        return x < 0 ? -x / 2 : x;
    }
};

int main()
{
    Object obj( 10 );

    std::cout << obj.get_mass() << std::endl;

    return 0;
}

However, volleyball, skateboarding, snowboarding, and Ultimate are American inventions, some of which have become popular in other countries.
The game evolved from older bat-and-ball games already being played in England by the mid-18th century. This game was brought by immigrants to North America, where the modern version developed. By the late 20th century, baseball was widely recognized as the national sport of the United States.
The NHL, founded in 1917, is the second-oldest major professional team sports league in North America.
Wrestling as a modern day sport is still widely popular, even though it has come to evolve and develop into many different types and categories. Not only is running the second oldest sports activity in the world, it is also the first Olympic sport to have a written record off its event, dating back to 776 BC.
Although Jackie Robinson is widely recognized as the first African-American to play in the Major Leagues, Walker is acknowledged by historians at the National Baseball Hall of Fame to actually be the first, six decades before Robinson suited up for the Brooklyn Dodgers on April 15, 1947.
Polo is perhaps the oldest team sport; the first recorded tournament was in 600 B.C. between the Turkomans and the Persians (the Turkomans were victorious). The first game in Britain of "hockey on horseback" was organised on Hounslow Heath in 1869 …

Did you know cliff diving was the oldest extreme sport in the world?
The oldest major sports league in America However, football existed in an organized form before the MLB merger concluded. The NFL has a claim to the title if it traces back to the very early days of the sport, but it's generally agreed that baseball is the oldest.
Cricket and Rounders[edit] Modern cricket is much older than modern baseball. People have been playing games with balls or bats or bases for millennia, probably, and playing games with two of those elements for centuries before the Knickerbockers, certainly.
George Hancock
Softball began in 1887 when George Hancock, a reporter for the Chicago Board of Trade, invented "indoor baseball". By the spring of 1888, the game had spread outdoors. It was originally called either mushball, kittenball or indoor baseball, but by the 1920s it had acquired the name of softball.
Although rounders is assumed to be older than baseball, literary references to early forms of 'base-ball' in England pre-date use of the term rounders.
All of these ancient sports, in some form, are still practiced around the world today.

Running (Stadion) The running race known as stadion or stade is the oldest Olympic Sport in the world. It was the only event at the very first Olympics in 776 BCE and remained the sole event at the Games until 724 BCE.
It was predictably in Greece that sports were first instituted formally, with the first Olympic Games recorded in 776 BCE in Olympia, where they were celebrated until 393 CE. These games took place every four years, or Olympiad, which became a unit of time in historical chronologies.
Asian-American point guard Wat Misaka broke basketball's color barrier as the first non-white player to play in the NBA in 1947.
The 1947-1948 baseball season opened with a new Brooklyn Dodger at second base: Jackie Robinson, the first African American in the major leagues. For the first time in the 20th century, professional baseball–the national pastime–was integrated.
The country was recovering from World War II and sports were rapidly growing. Out in Los Angeles, California, running back Kenny Washington was making a name for himself at UCLA. Then, he became the first black player in the NFL.
According to the National Cricket Census, a record 1,311,184 people played Cricket across Australia in 2015–16, an 8.5 percent increase on 2014–15 – placing cricket at No. 1 as the current top participation sport in Australia.
Football (soccer), known in Germany as Fußball, is hugely popular in all parts of the country and can be considered a national sport.
In Mexico, the Charrería is considered the national sport by excellence, since it was registered in the National Sports Commission. It is practiced in "Lienzos Charros", which are especially designed for the practice along with a horse and a rider called "charro".
Table tennis, known as pingpong in China, is China's national sport, and a source of pride right up there with the Great Wall and pandas. The Chinese have played a major role in transforming table tennis from a pastime of Victorian gentlemen to a sport of the masses.
judo, Japanese jūdō, system of unarmed combat, now primarily a sport. The rules of the sport of judo are complex. The objective is to cleanly throw, to pin, or to master the opponent, the latter being done by applying pressure to arm joints or to the neck to cause the opponent to yield.
Cricket is considered to be Australia's national sport.
Sports are an important part of culture in the United States of America. American football is the most popular spectator sport to watch in the United States, followed by baseball, basketball, ice hockey, and soccer, which make up the "five major sports".

Q: Scrapy-splash response.css() can't get an element I'm trying to scrape from a dynamic JS content website, I'm trying to get the breadcrumbs of the current page.

The breadcrumbs is consisted of 4 classes named : '.breadcrumbs-link'

To do so, I wrote this code, using scrapy-splash:
import scrapy
from scrapy_splash import SplashRequest

class MySpider(scrapy.Spider):
    name = "quotes4"

    start_urls = ["https://www.woolworths.com.au/shop/browse/drinks/cordials-juices-iced-teas/iced-teas"]

    def start_requests(self):
        for url in self.start_urls:
            yield SplashRequest(url=url, callback=self.parse, endpoint='render.html',args= {'wait': 10})

    def parse(self, response):
        print ('Result:')
        print(len(response.css('.breadcrumbs-link').extract())) # OUTPUT: 0
        print(response.css('.breadcrumbs-link').extract()) # OUTPUT: []

What could be wrong about my approach ?

A: This website (https://www.woolworths.com.au) uses Angular. If you go at the Splash FAQ page, there is a section "Website is not rendered correctly" where we can see:

non-working localStorage in Private Mode. This is a common issue e.g.
  for websites based on AngularJS. If rendering doesn't work, try
  disabling Private mode (see How do I disable Private mode?).

And at the link we can see:

How do I disable Private mode?
With Splash>=2.0, you can disable Private mode (which is "on" by
  default). There are two ways to go about it:
at startup, with the --disable-private-mode argument, e.g., if
  you're using Docker:
$ sudo docker run -it -p 8050:8050 scrapinghub/splash --disable-private-mode

at runtime when using the /execute endpoint and setting
  splash.private_mode_enabled attribute to false

The easy way is to disable private mode by using --disable-private-mode, but if you don't want to do that, then you can pass a Lua script that temporarily disables private mode for your spider and then enables it again when it's finished:
import scrapy
from scrapy_splash import SplashRequest

LUA_SCRIPT = """
function main(splash)
    splash.private_mode_enabled = false
    splash:go(splash.args.url)
    splash:wait(2)
    html = splash:html()
    splash.private_mode_enabled = true
    return html
end
"""

class MySpider(scrapy.Spider):
    name = "quotes4"

    start_urls = ["https://www.woolworths.com.au/shop/browse/drinks/cordials-juices-iced-teas/iced-teas"]

    def start_requests(self):
        for url in self.start_urls:
            yield SplashRequest(url=url,
                                callback=self.parse,
                                endpoint='execute',
                                args={
                                    'wait': 1,
                                    "lua_source":LUA_SCRIPT})

    def parse(self, response):
        print ('Result:')
        print(".breadcrumbs-link len = %d" % (len(response.css('.breadcrumbs-link').extract()))) # OUTPUT: 4
        print(".breadcrumbs-link = %s" % (response.css('.breadcrumbs-link').extract())) # OUTPUT: [...HTML ELEMENTS...]

It worked for me by disabling private mode with result:
Result:
.breadcrumbs-link len = 4
.breadcrumbs-link = ['<li class="breadcrumbs-link" ng-repeat="link ....
