Govinda and Gopāla are the names of Vishnu which mean Cowherd and Protector of Cows. These names are popularly addressed to Krishna, referring to his youthful activity as a cowherd boy; this name appears as the 539th name of Lord Vishnu in Vishnu Sahasranama. Lord Vishnu or his complete incarnation Krishna are regarded as the Supreme God in the Vaishnava tradition and by much of the pan-Hindu tradition. Gopala Krishna of Krishnaism is contrasted with Vedism when Krishna asks his followers to desist from Vedic demigod worship such as Indra worship, thus the character of Gopala Krishna is considered to be non-Vedic in one interpretation, while it can be based on the popular understanding or rather misunderstanding of the Rig Vedic texts. According to Klaus Klostermaier, Kumar Gopijanavallabha – Krishna the lover of the Gopis – is the latest stage in the historical process resulting in contemporary Krishnaism, being added to the worship of Bala Krishna, the original cult of Krishna-Vasudeva which may date back to several centuries before the Common Era.

Both names translate to "cowherd". The Sanskrit word go means "cow". Govinda is a name of Krishna and appears as the 187th and 539th name of Vishnu in the Vishnu Sahasranama, the 1000 names of Vishnu. According to Adi Sankara's commentary on the Vishnu Sahasranama, translated by Swami Tapasyananda, Govinda has four meanings: The sages call Krishna "Govinda" as He pervades all the worlds, giving them power; the Shanti Parva of the Mahabharata states that Vishnu restored the earth that had sunk into the netherworld, or naraga in Tamil, so all the devas praised Him as Govind. Alternatively, it means "He, known by Vedic words alone". In the Harivamsa, Indra praised Krishna for having attained loving leadership of the cows which Krishna tended as a cowherd, by saying, "So men too shall praise Him as Govinda."Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, in his commentary on the Bhagavad-Gita, states that Govinda means "master of the senses". In the Mahabharata, when Draupadi's saree was stripped by Dushasana in the court of Hastinapura, it is said that Draupadi prayed towards Lord Krishna invoking him as "Govinda" at the instance of extreme distress where she could no longer hold her saree to her chest.

For this reason, it is believed that "Govinda" is how the Lord is addressed by devotees when they have lost it all and have nothing more to lose. This may be the reason why in colloquial Tamil and Telugu the slang-term "govinda" sometimes refers to the prospect of losing or failing in something important. A Hindu devotional composition called Moha Mudgara composed by Adi Sankara, a summary of, "If one just worships Govinda, one can cross this great ocean of birth and death." This refers to the belief that worshipful adoration of Vishnu or Krishna can lead believers out of the cycle of reincarnation and lead them into an eternal blissful life in Vaikuntha,'the supreme abode situated beyond this material world' where Govinda resides. Adi Sankara's Moha Mudgara composition expresses the value of inner devotion to Vishnu.

Tube called the Passenger Assist Railway Display System, is a passenger information system deployed on certain lines of the Manila Light Rail Transit and Metro Rail Transit systems. Developed by Filipino technology companies TrackMate Business Solutions and PHAR Philippines, the system was unveiled on May 5, 2017. PARDS was created amid complaints from train passengers that they are unaware of what's going on while riding the system, with a lack of information displays among one of their major complaints; the system was unveiled on May 2017, with the system being installed on one Line 2 train. By June 2017, all ten active train units were fitted with the system, with some 400 LCD monitors installed system-wide. Installed at no cost to the national government, PARDS is funded through advertising. Although deployed on the Line 2, TrackMate presented the system to the Light Rail Manila Corporation, the operator of Line 1, to the Metro Rail Transit Corporation, operator of Line 3, eliciting a positive reaction.

TrackMate claimed that there is interest in deploying PARDS internationally, as well as that there is potential in deploying it as a suitable low-cost alternative to traditional railway signalling systems. On March 28, 2019, an event was held announcing the system's rebranding to TUBE. In contrast to PARDS, TUBE features a redesigned interface and advertisements, during the event, Filipino Youtube personalities presented how the companies aimed to deploy the system to all three lines. PHAR and TrackMate have announced that Line 3 trains will be equipped with the system by April 2019, with the goal of having the system deployed on all three lines by July. TUBE uses GPS technology to determine a train's speed and other important information, which helps determine a train's arrival and departure time. Information from the train is uploaded to the cloud, transmitted back to the train; each TUBE-equipped train has been fitted with at least 40 LCD monitors which not only shows the train's location, but news, public service announcements, passenger traffic and entertainment.

The system is capable of transmitting real-time information when circumstances require, such as in an emergency. TUBE has a mobile component, where real-time train information can be accessed through a mobile application to be developed as part of the project's second phase, as well as a backend which allows the Light Rail Transit Authority to monitor train performance and passenger loads in real time.

Park Square is a large garden square or private appendix to Regents Park in London and is split from a further green, the long northern side of Park Crescent, by Marylebone Road and Regent's Park tube station. It consists of two facing rows of large classically formed, terraced houses with decorative lower floor balconies and a colonade of consecutive porticos by architect John Nash, was built in 1823–24. Alike, shorter-length terraces flank its corners at right angles Grade I listed buildings: Ulster Terrace, Ulster Place, St Andrew's Place and Albany Terrace. Park Square Gardens at centre are private communal grounds for residents. Fronting the north side is the traffic-calmed Outer Circle of Regent's Park; the square is in the Marylebone historic parish addition to the City of Westminster save for the eastern side: in Camden. On the east side of the square was Britain's longest-lasting of four national exhibitions of the Diorama, the building of which remains, in other use – it opened from 1823 until 1832.

North-east beyond much smaller St Andrews Place, about twice the Diorama's size, was London Colosseum, built for the largest painting made and, demolished in 1874 – both had large foyers and attracted many visitors. Unusually it has eight buildings within it, omitting which space, the garden added to east and west sides' roads and footways spans 2.5 hectares. The gardens are owned by the Crown Estate, it opens to the public a few times per year for London Gardens Squares Weekends. It is dominated by plane trees; the first set were planted in 1817 to celebrate the peace won by the Battle of Waterloo in 1815. Of interest is a tulip tree, Liriodendron tulipifera. An 1821-built feature in the garden is the "Nursemaids' Tunnel", a private, communal pedestrian tunnel, rare in today's Inner London boroughs linking the gardens with those of Park Crescent, its portals are well-executed in stucco, each with fluted Doric columns flanking the arched entrances. The tunnel has groin vaults supported by brick pilasters and concave walls.

The busy road was considered dangerous to children who were taken to the park by a nursemaid, leading to the wealthy to-be residents petitioning for its building. In the highest, rarest level of listed building are both built-up sides. In the east all but the end houses comprise "Park Square East"; this exclusion of ends from the street's own numbering is mirrored on the other side. The latter is Grade I-listed; the four corner houses project and co-front shorter terraces yet their design is similar by Nash, of the same date. Those short perpendicular rows are recognised and protected with the same status: Ulster Terrace, Ulster Place, St Andrew's Place and Albany Terrace. Two small garden-keeping buildings are listed in the extreme southern corners, the garden-surrounding railings and 18 street lamps. All in the mainstream, initial category, grade II. Non-listed similar-size buildings comprise those in the northern angles: 12 Park Square East.
