The little fish tank I got a month ago cracked on Sunday. Our poor fish are now living in...our coffee pot! The rental came with a pot, since it was unused we put the pot to work. It makes me laugh everytime I glimpse at the pot.
Amelia had her two year old appt today. She weighs 22.5 pounds and is about 31.75 inches tall, both range in the 20th percentile. At least she is consistent. She let the Dr hear her heart, look in her ears, and feel her tummy with out a squeak. Miekka gave us a book about Caillou going to the DR, I really think the book helped her understand the DR was just looking. When the DR left the room she said "See ya later, See ya soon, and Castle." Castle stands for "have fun stormin' the castle!" which Justin is trying to get her to say when he leaves in the morning and at lunch. After Amelia's checkup it was my turn. Amelia was glad I had to get on the table. I got some more allergy meds to help reduce all the reactions I've had lately. The DR went over my ultrasound from Monday. This time he said the Placenta Previa should move enough to not be a problem in about a month. He wants to do ANOTHER ultrasound, this time to check on the baby. Apparently, the left lateral ventricle of the baby's brain is abnormally large, which could indicate congenital hydrocephalus. The abnormality could be just that and clear itself up in the next couple weeks of development. My first thought was, maybe the kid has Justin's HUGE head. LOL. We will see. Hopefully we reach our out of pocket max soon because the ultrasounds are really expensive (like $457). I don't like Cabela's health insurance!
Yesterday evening our little town hosted a Girl's Night Out. Several local businesses participated in the event...including me! I packed up all the hats and shirts I made to sell for profit. Justin had to work late so Amelia came with me and watched Thomas the Train for the first 20 minutes. It smelled really good inside since there was a cooking table right one side and Salt City Candles on the other side. Yum. The event started at 5 pm and went until 9 pm. I was a little disappointed that only three hats and two shirts sold. Guess I will have to open an Etsy Shop now to sell the rest of what I have. It was a fun evening!!
Fisher Price play kitchen, train puzzle, play food, dolly, mixer, tin pans, skirt/shirt/monkey shoes, cash register, color book, crayons, and fruit book.
All day we told her little stories about her first day here on Earth. When she was first placed on me Amelia raised her head, saluted, and then went limp. That moment of clarity is still very precious to me! She's been a hard baby as far as sleeping is concerned, but we are working through it. She talks non-stop, much to our amusement. After her little party I took a nap at 6 pm! Then we went to the ice cream store (DQ) for a birthday hamburger.
We officially have a two year old! As I made a collage of the past year it seems unreal how much our little girl has grown. She started off the year barely able to crawl. Now she is running, talking, and playing. Her dimple is still strong and her smile is broad. All day Amelia's told us she is two and wants a birthday cake. She helped me pour the mix, add the ingredients, and pour the batter into a cupcake tin. She wanted two cuppy cakes like she has on her shirt. Grandma Debbie called and sang her "Happy Birthday" she looked everywhere for her birthday and couldn't find it! How cute is that? We love getting phone calls for Amelia. We put together her new little kitchen this morning. She is still playing hard three hours later. Love it!! Later on Ella is coming over for cuppy cakes and to help her open a couple more gifts.
LOL!! I was just brushing my teeth when I noticed my shirt was not doing such a great job. We had a cooler day today so a long-sleeved shirt was necessary. Hum...not working so well. I have two problems and neither solution seems sensible. One, my winter maternity shirts are stuffed in some long-lost, mis-labeled box in one of two storage units. Two, I am too cheap to buy more shirts only to wear it for a couple of days or weeks. Guess this sight may become common!!
I can't believe how HUGE my belly is...at only 5 months. This was how I looked when Amelia was born. Already breathing is a chore and my insides are squished like I was 9 months along. Our little baby is a mover and shaker. It did not like my seatbelt while driving 8-9 hours. Whenever I stop moving it takes up dancing the tango. Most nights I can hardly sleep because of my baby's midnight parties. I tried to walk while in Utah to get some exercise, my belly would start to contract and cramp. Bummer. I really hope this does not signal the end of my gym visits. I enjoy working out. My next ultrasound is on Monday. I am pretty sure the placenta previa is not an issue...but we will see. Amelia and I have a DR appt on Wednesday. Me to go over the ultrasound and get the nasty gestational diabetes test and Amelia for her two year old well child. She will need shots which makes me nervous because now she can talk...or rather scream at me. I hate shots!!! More updates next week on this new little one; or shall I say twice as big as Amelia at birth at 5 months along?!
Thursday: Both Amelia and I started off the day really tired. Sleeping in the same bed with kangaroo girl is not fun. We went to NPS for some food shopping since a soldier on leave, an all natural eater, a no gluten eater, and a rabbit make for sparse food. Jeff bought about 5 pounds of hot dogs, bread, and sausage to live off of...plus milk. My usual favorite good deals haunt did not have many good deals this time. I did find cereal for $.25 per box. After a nap we went to see Justin's cousin, Nancy. She recently had a baby boy, Kyle, who was diagnosed with SMA. I was very happy she allowed me to photograph her son and girls. We made due with a sheet, blanket, and pillows! All in all the pictures turned out super cute. It was nice to visit with Aunt Nancy and Uncle Bryan.
I made sloppy joes for dinner then went over to James and Miekka's to play. The kids ate Popsicles and played. Amelia loved going up and down Seth's bunk bed ladder. She ended up melting towards the end and showed them a small tantrum!! Miekka let me borrow one of their Thomas the Train inflatable beds. Amelia slept and napped in the bed with absolutely no problems. Thank heavens!!!
Friday: I dropped Amelia off at Catherine Taylor's to play with Kate while I went to a huge consignment sale. My mission was to find a play kitchen for Amelia's birthday. No luck! I did score some cute summer clothes (mostly shorts and skirts) for her. Miekka came with and found some shoes and outfits for Lia. I stopped at Kohl's to get Justin some dress shirts for work. Luckily, the store was selling their shirts for a really good deal. Catherine and I chatted for an hour. It was heaven!!
We met Miekka at the Hobby Lobby after naps. I restocked my silk flowers, cotton yarn, and brads. For dinner we ate sushi to celebrate Miekka's birthday! This was Jeff's first taste of sushi, I think he enjoyed it. Miekka showed me the progress on their laundry/craft room. It looks awesome. We ate ice cream for dessert in Miekka's honor. Happy Birthday!
Saturday: Jeff picked up Dad at 10:30. I went to JoAnn's looking for brown flowers...no luck. Shopping drastically reduced now that Dad arrived. We spent the first hour or so telling stories and talking. Amelia talked non-stop to dad about everything she could think of. It was cute to hear her saying "dampa Dane." Dad toured the house and made plans to built an addition for the house. James and Miekka hosted a BBQ for dinner, making fajitas on the grill. As usual the food was scrum-dittly-umptious.
Sunday: I attended my old ward for sacrament meeting. There are a lot of pregnant ladies now...me included! Already I only knew about half the folks at church. We zoomed back to home base and picked up Jeff then drove to Wellsville. James and Jana also drove up with passengers. Grandma and Grandpa Baerwaldt were glad to have visitors! All the little people entertained us by jumping on the little tramp and doing what kids do best. Lia is a smiley little gal and really fun to hold. She will give you a huge gummy grin! Grandma made a yummy roast beef dinner. I made a fruit pizza for dessert. Amelia managed to spill grape juice all over her white Easter dress. We stayed a little while longer while her outfit went through the laundry. From there we drove down to Mt Green to visit with Uncle Matt and Aunt Laura. They were celebrating Melia's birthday so all their kids were there. Aunt Sally showed up with her husband and kids too! Mia loved running up and down the stone stairs in their backyard. Melia's little boy, Michael, was enthralled with Amelia...he exclaimed that she was a girl because she had a huge flower in her hair. Matt served angel food cake with strawberries to everyone. Yum, yum. We had fun visiting and catching up. John and Courtenay were home from Oregon when we arrived back. John is certainly the life of a party. Conversation was fun and entertaining.
Monday: I went to Gardner Village to get some birthday pictures of Amelia. I really wanted to get her a pettiskirt but the shop was closed (huge bummer). I was really proud of myself for not spending any money at Pine Needles on uber-cute fabric. The highlight was riding a pony named Sparky. Amelia said, giddy-up and yippee, during her ride. She was a little worried with the pony blew some air. She wants to be a cowboy now. I think we are both allergic to horses since our noses started running and we started to sneeze up a storm. Plus the pollen count in SLC was super high. We've been miserable since Monday. My allergic reaction decided to turn into a full-blown sinus infection. Yucky. BTW: Tylenol does not work very well.
I planned BBQ for that night to celebrate Miekka, James, and Amelia's birthdays. Dad came home that afternoon with two new handguns. He got a Sig Mosquito and a Springfield .45. While I made potato salad he cut both fingers trying to get the slide off the guns!! It was funny to watch! Jeff grilled chicken, John made salsa, and I made salad. Miekka whipped out socks off by making a chocolate-mint fondant cake. It should be dubbed, Devil's Mint Cake. I've had a craving for it and she outdid herself. After dinner John showed us a slide show his company made from their time in Afghanistan. He tells fun stories. Being a Mom means I could not listen as intently all the time...the kids come first. The adults were to involved to break away from John's stories that we ended up eating cake and ice cream without them. Amelia unwrapped gifts from Miekka and Courtenay. She loves the monkey shoes Miekka gave her. Courtenay's gift of metal pans will make more sense once she gets her play kitchen on Saturday.
Tuesday: We met Miekka and kids at Liberty Park for a hour. Mia and I actually stayed about two hours playing in the sun, sand, and water. The little water area started spraying water around 11 am. Seth and Jacob were drenched after a couple minutes!! Mia stayed relatively dry but had fun playing outside the water blast zone. The weather was really warm and sunny, hooray! That afternoon we visited Aunt Charity, Libby, Mason, and Reagan for an hour or so. Amelia loves to pet their hamster. She was in heaven once they broke out sidewalk chalk. I barely made it home in time to pick up Dad and Jana for a session at the temple. James and Miekka were waiting for us (which usually never happens). We went through an endowment session. That night dad and John started discussing plans to renovate and reorganize the house. We talked until about 11:30. Wednesday: Jeff left at 7:20 am. His truck was packed and crated for the long drive back to Texas. I completed a last load of laundry (can I tell you how wonderful it was to have a washer and dryer available?), packed and were on the road by 9:45 am. I was not ready to go back to Nebraska...it does not feel like home yet. Mia asked to go "ome" about 10 times a day to meet Daddy at the park. The drive back was excruciating for me. Mia was perfect she watched her movies, played with her blanket and mimi, and colored for 9 hours. We stopped three times, in Rock Springs for lunch, a rest stop, and for gas/restroom. I am really surprised that we made it back since my head hurt so bad I can barely remember the drive. Thankfully, I found a tape player (Walkman) to listen to a book on tape. My local library mainly carries books on tape. My car has a CD player. Bummer. Mia gave Justin a 5 minute hug, that totally made up for a week of vacation. Justin had the house cleaner than I've ever kept it! Thanks hun! He shooed me to bed by 8:30 and took care of Mia, bathing her and putting her down for bed. He even got up to comfort her at 4 am. I feel a smidge better today. I called Dad to tell him we arrived home. He said him and John ripped down a couple walls and started renovating the rooms like we talked about. There is never a dull moment with Dad around! I think the new renovations will make more sense and give them an office, a new pantry, and bigger dining room. I can't wait to get back in 6-7 weeks. My mom is coming back for the summer, Mason is getting baptized, and I have a photography class the first week of June.
PS: the tree outside my window is green leaves on it now...super happy hooray.
P.P.S.: Amelia's first color she said by herself was chocolate. We wore a brown shirts yesterday, of which she identified as chocolate brown. What a wonder!!!
Hooray! We are in Utah! Amelia and I pulled out at 3:45 this morning from Sidney and arrived at Park City around 11:20 am. Amelia was really good. She slept until 7:00 am then enjoyed watching the new movies I got her for the trip. Amelia now loves Thomas the Train due to her close proximity to trains. I am suffering from post-long-drive-over-munchies! Staying alert was hard, so eating was the only thing that kept me awake. Constant eating like that makes me feel gross.
At Park City I dropped some serious cash at Motherhood getting two cute dresses, some shirts, shorts, etc to get me through the summer. Tomorrow I need to exchange a couple things at the local store here, but mostly am satisfied with my purchases. The snow started coming down while we shopped. Parley's Canyon was slick but safe if you drove slowly.
We stopped at Ken and Charity's house first to see Aunt Melissa, Ethan, and Grant before they left for a visit to Virginia. It was fun to see the cousins play together. I love all the little words Amelia says. She would mimic Grant when he cried with a hilarious fake cry. My little mime!!
After that we played with Miekka, Seth, Jacob, and Lia. The cousins were REALLY LOUD. Poor Miekka had a headache after all the chaos...me? Just at the numb stage, aware I've been up way too long. I need to get used to the sleep deprivation with a newborn on the way. Miekka had a tent set up in the front room much to the kid's amusement. We had a super delicious dinner of cereal! It was the only food that sounded good to me.
Now we are at Grandma Debbie's house for the night. I decided to stay here a couple nights until John, Courtenay, and Dad get here. Jana, Jeff, and De-bo are enjoying Amelia's chattering, smiles, and laughs filling Grandma's house. Hope the LION sleeps tonight! Here is a shout out to Daddy: WE MISS YOU!!!!
*her favorite shape is an....OCTAGON. One day we were out walking and she shouts, "MOM isa OCTAGON!" I about dropped my teeth. Not sure where she learned octagon!!
*she thinks she is "pretty as a pizza." Her toy camera says "You're a pretty as a princess" when the button is depressed, she has her own interpretation!
*three nights ago I put her to bed. She wanted some chacholit milk...I gave her some chocolate milk. For some reason she didn't finish but forgot about the milk....until it was after midnight. I walk into her room finally understanding the screams for "chacholit" over and over. I made her some milk and 30 seconds and two sips later she was out like a light. She must've had a chocolate dream! What a funny kid.
*running around in her mousie shoes! Watch video here!
*her new favorite song is "Step in Time" by Mary Poppins. We watched it on the TV and she was absolutely delighted. Watch the video here for further entertainment!!!
I must have my pregnant brain plugged in, wait, I do!!! The community hosted a fun Easter Egg Hunt this morning at 10 am. All week I looked forward to participating in it. For some reason this morning I thought the hunt was at 10:30. We showed up 5 minutes early only to find the place deserted. After 10 minutes we stopped someone who said it started at 10 and ended about 20 minutes later. Huge bummer. Justin laughed...I didn't. We drove home and picked up the eggs we colored yesterday and some Easter candy to hide around the park for Amelia. She did not really catch on to all the excitement. The sight of the slide and swings had more sway in her book. We tried to show her what to do but the prospect of plopping eggs into a basket was not appealing. It was freezing cold outside and really windy (huge surprise). Still I had to remove her coat for a picture (or 40) of her cute bunny outfit. I was bound and determined she'd wear it. I also put one of the hats on going to the craft sale because it was so chunky and cute. Ten minutes later we were back home.
Justin is helping the Webb's finish their basement this afternoon. The missionaries arrive on Wednesday! They are cutting it close. Amelia I took a short nap, like 30 minutes. Then we vacuumed the carpets and cleaned out my car. Cleaning the car was very amusing! I stretched it out as long as possible. Tomorrow I am planning on making mashed parsnips, buttered carrots, baked ham, and Challah bread. Yum, yum.

Sai Products Graphiq Pvt Ltd
Posted on January 22, 2014 by Editor's Desk
I was on the lookout of B2B solution provider for promoting my organisation and IndiaMART.com's solution was interesting and different from what others were offering. It was user-friendly as well.
Mr. Yadav Chandna (Director)
Sai Products & Grafiq Pvt. Ltd.
New Delhi, 22nd January, 2014
Sai Products & Graphiq Wears Mask of Success
Its not surprising for someone who does not settle for anything less than 100% to have maintained a CAGR of around 35%, considering the country went through different phases of recession, slowdown. "We still managed to grow, mainly because we are a very diversified portfolio consisting of masking, insulation, stickers, security labels etc. We are constantly developing new products and doing innovations," says Mr. Yadav Chandna, Director, Sai Products & Graphiq Pvt. Ltd.
Based out of Noida, the company has 3 units – 1 in Noida, 1 in Greater Noida and 1 more in Roorkee. Talking about his initial days, Mr. Chandna says, "The journey was very small and humble and we started somewhere in 1997 when I was in service as the CEO of international trading organisation."
Commitment to R&D
The journey for Mr. Chandna has been very challenging and interesting. "What has sustained us throughout, is the commitment to R&D. We are looking at new products and quality. We started with new product called masking. That was a very challenging and a new product within India, and not a single manufacturer in India who could make that product. That's how we got the opportunity to make that product for the multinationals in the automobile sector," says Mr. Chandna.
The challenge was not only to develop the product but prove themselves in the new market. "Having developed the product, we not only satisfied our clients needs but exceeded in it. Whereas they were not expecting productivity lets say X, we gave them productivity which was ten times better than their expectations."
Being an early mover in this industry, Mr. Chandna finds competition not in
the domestic region but on foreign shores. He says, "We choose our competitors very well. We do not like to compete with Indian companies. We are very happy competing with large multinationals and corporate sector because they come up with very innovative products and its very interesting to meet similar products, copy them and execute them."
Marketing through Internet
Most of the enquiries are generated through the internet and Mr. Chandna finds it to be a great tool for conducting business. "We actively follow up the enquiries through the internet. The use of various technologies like Skype and talking to the customers helps us in maturing the enquiries," says Mr. Chandna.
IndiaMART Achiever
The association with IndiaMART started almost when IndiaMART.com had started. "I was on the lookout of B2B solution provider for promoting my organisation and IndiaMART.com solution which was interesting and different from what others were offering. It was user-friendly as well," says Mr. Chandna.
Internet – Facilitating Growth
The kind of response Mr. Chandna got from international markets was beneficial. "All thanks to the site that IndiaMART.com had prepared for us and hosted. We got enquiries from Pakistan, Iran, Europe, Western Europe and other places. I have been very fortunate that whatever enquiries I got they were converted into business," says Mr. Chandna.

Q: Java basic concurrent communicator - does not fully accept connection I want to create simple communicator with one server and few clients who could connect and send data to it. It works fine without any threads, with only one client, but once i try to incorporate concurrency it doesn't work. From client perspective there is some connection, I can send data, but there is no sign of receiving that data on server. Here is the server class:
    import java.io.*;
    import java.net.InetAddress;
    import java.net.ServerSocket;
    import java.net.Socket;
    import java.util.Random;

    public class MyServerSocket implements Runnable

            this.serverSocket = new ServerSocket(generator.nextInt(65000 - 60000) + 60000, 50, InetAddress.getByName("192.168.0.105"));
        }

        public InetAddress getSocketIPAddress()
        {
            return this.serverSocket.getInetAddress();

Server somehow stops its working when is about to accept the client connection, while client works fine and seem to be connected to the server.

A: In server side, once you accept a client connection, you should new a thread to process this connection:
import java.io.*;
import java.net.InetAddress;
import java.net.ServerSocket;
import java.net.Socket;
import java.util.Random;

public class MyServerSocket implements Runnable {

    }

    public InetAddress getSocketIPAddress() {
        return this.serverSocket.getInetAddress();
    }

    public int getPort() {
        return this.serverSocket.getLocalPort();
    }

    public void run() {
        while (true) {
            System.out.println("Running a thread");
            try(Socket client = this.serverSocket.accept()) {

                // new thread to process this client
                new Thread(() -> {
                    try {
                        String data = null;
                        String clientAddress = client.getInetAddress().getHostName();
                        System.out.println("Connection from: " + clientAddress);

                            message = ("\r\nMessage from " + clientAddress + ": " + data);
                            System.out.println(message);
                            out.write(message);
                        }
                    } catch (IOException e) {
                        System.out.println("Something went wrong");
                    }
                }).start();

            } catch (Exception e) {
                System.out.println("Something went wrong");
            }
        }
    }
}

A: Ok, somehow I solved that problem, but still I need to understand how does it work:

*

*Accepting connection inside try block, without finally block (nor try with resources) so socket is opened all the time.

*Modified main method so there is no threads or runnable objects at all in it. The whole process is done within the class:
Code:
public class Main
{
        public static void main(String[] args)
        {
            try
            {
                MyServerSocket socket = new MyServerSocket();
                System.out.println("Port number: " + socket.getPort() + " IP address: " + socket.getSocketIPAddress());
                socket.run();
            }
            catch (Exception e)
            {
                e.printStackTrace();
            }
        }
}

If anyone could point me out mistakes that are still in this final version of code I'll be grateful.

Karachi, Pakistan, Travel
a trip to badin and tando bago…
After barely two of sleep, Aslam Khwaja arrives back at our house, and he and I set off again, this time for Tando Bago. On the way, we pick up Jibran Javaid, a filmmaker who's offered to help with my project. The drive is long and uneventful. Once we reach Tando Bago, Aslam tries to guide the driver to his cousin Badar's house, but by this point, the rented Toyota has had enough. The car overheats and begins to stall. The driver hops out and pours water into the engine as he did before when we drove to Lyari, but this time the car refuses to start.
Thanks to the techno-driven world in which we live, Aslam is able to call his cousin Badar, who rolls up to us on his motorbike. Jibran, Aslam and I hoist up our filming equipment and follow Badar to his house, while the driver is given instructions on how to find a mechanic to get the car fixed.
After a meal, Badar walks us over to the house of Ali Mohammad, a member of the local Sheedi community. There, we meet Ali Mohammad's sons and daughters and he shares with us the challenges he faces in his community. "But I am determined that my children learn how to read and write," he tells us. "That's something that our previous generation couldn't offer us. I'm a peon and soon I will retire. But up until then, I am determined to create education opportunities in the family."
When asked whether he's witnessed socio-economic changes in his community, he nods. "The biggest change that came for us was from Bhutto. He spoke to us and told us that we have rights. And because of that, I have been able to provide for my children. Still, things are difficult… I won't have money after I retire. And our community still struggles. We don't enjoy the same rights as others around us. "
We then visit a Sheedi inner village, where we are greeted by Pir Buksh, an educator. When we introduce ourselves and request a taped interview, he says: "What do we have to gain by talking? We have been interviewed many times and yet nothing changes for us. We live in poverty, we have to walk miles to take our children to good schools and we have little access to good jobs. What can be gained from this recording? You'll film us and then you'll go away and our lives will remain the same."
I ask him if he's willing to write an essay about his life, which I can then get translated from Sindhi and published in English and Urdu. "Would you be willing to do that?" I ask. "We can record your story and share it with the larger community but your voice has more power."
He nods and agrees to write for us. Because he doesn't own a computer, he makes an agreement to write by hand and then pass the story on to Badar, who can scan and send the story to Aslam, who will then translate and share with me after which we can work on publication.
A young woman also talks to us. "I only finished studying till Class 8," she tells us. "I wanted to study more but my family ran out of money, so they took me out of school. And then I got married off. Now I have four children. But I still have a desire to study."
She and other women perform a couple of songs for us along with a young man who has a passion for singing.
On our way back to Karachi, we stop off in Badin for an improv meeting with Iqbal Hyder, who in 1987 began a grassroots collective called the Young Sheedi Welfare Association. "I was about to take my Matric examinations," he tells us in the resthouse his new organization, LAAR Human Development Program, now owns. "But I didn't have money and neither did my friends. So together we decided to raise awareness in our community about the importance of education. We collected Rs. 2 from about fifteen families and we used that to continue our education. More families got involved and we raised more money and we offered tutorials. We also saw that people in our community didn't have funds to purchase textbooks. So we began a textbook bank. First we worked mostly with boys but then we saw that girls were also looking to learn so we began including them in the tutorials. Over the years, I've learned that poverty is a mindset. If our people can just raise their voices and step out of that mindset then we will have done more than half of the work."
Hyder started his education with the intent to learn engineering but after all his grassroots activism, he discovered his passion for social justice and organizing and changed his field of study to sociology. "We no longer work with just the Sheedi community," he says. "Our goal is to address health, poverty and education at a wider scale." By the end of the two-hour conversation—during which both the driver and Jibran take their Iftar meal—he also agrees to write an essay about his experience and offers to collect stories from others in his community.
We drive away from Badin well after 8:30 pm, knowing that we will not land in Karachi till long after midnight.

Iowa State University's Institute for Transportation (InTrans) research scientist Basak Aldemir Bektas went to Ankeny High School teacher Joe Carey's AP Statistics class this week to help his students learn to PANIC.
That is, Carey aimed to teach his students about confidence intervals using the PANIC steps of stating their Parameters, stating their Assumptions, Naming their interval, identifying that Interval and coming up with a Conclusion.
Bektas assisted in that important endeavor by offering a real-world experience and example from her recent research with Brent Phares and Zachary Hans into what bridge, land use, and species' distribution factors are more likely to make a bridge a roosting habitat.
The classroom visit was the final part of Carey's work at InTrans for the past two years as part of ISU's Research Experiences for Teachers program that provides high school teachers with opportunities to do research and build relationships with professionals in the Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) fields.
Carey said his work at InTrans reminded him to keep perspective about the importance of the learning process.
With background from Bektas about the project and its importance — to protect endangered bats while ensuring necessary bridge repairs can be made with fewer delays — Carey gave his students a variety of bridge factors and the observed numbers that housed bats. Their job, then, was to assess the likelihood of each factor being a bat habitat.
The students' work mirrors one small part of the actual research that helped determine correlations between various variables and bat roosting behavior.
Bektas, for her part, was eager to join the students — this is her second year visiting Carey's class — to help inspire their interest in the STEM fields.
"This project, with its unique and interdisciplinary nature, gives us the perfect opportunity to get students' attention and engage them in the discussion. I was honored to work with RET and Joe Carey the last two years, and I believe some of the students we reached out to are now more interested in studying engineering in future," Bektas said.
The RET program, hosted through ISU's Center for Biorenewable Chemicals and funded by the National Science Foundation, will continue in 2018, between June 11 and 27. Those interested in applying can do so here. Applications are due by March 1.

The Return of a Ratings Monster: 'Walking Dead' Kills
"The Walking Dead" returned bigger than ever in its season five premiere Sunday night on AMC, setting a series record with 17.3 million total viewers for the 9 p.m. airing, Deadline.com reports.
That number was up 7% from the previous record, the 16.1 million who turned out for the season four premiere. Additionally, Sunday's program delivered 11 million viewers in the 18-49 demo, up 6% from 10.4 million a year ago.
"As it stands right now, the hourlong S5 opener 'No Sanctuary,' directed by EP Greg Nicotero, has scored a touchdown over the NFL, Fox's football overrun and NBC's 'Sunday Night Football' among the key demo to win prime time in both broadcast and cable," the story reports. "That could change in the final numbers, as it did with last season's debut, which eventually saw a slim 'SNF' win after what initially looked like a 'WD' victory."
The report notes that the Sunday night NFL game was a blowout, with the Eagled trouncing the Giants 27-0, driving down the average turnout for the broadcast — and making a "Walking Dead" win over the typically unbeatable NFL more likely than it was last year.
"Last season, 'The Walking Dead' not only proved the most successful nonsports show on TV among the 18-49s but actually beat the NFL twice and the Winter Olympics three weeks in a row," the report notes.

Lake Zug East: Switzerland's Longest Construction Site Completed
ntil recently, the infrastructure measures at Lake Zug East were the longest construction site in Switzerland. The 15-kilometer-long project has since been successfully completed after 20 months of construction. Not only has the full closure – which was necessary for economic and environmental protection reasons – been lifted, but one of the important access routes to the Gotthard Tunnel has also been completed. The fact that this could be done without any problems and delivered on schedule despite Coronavirus is due to the work of Emch+Berger WSB AG. The engineering firm was commissioned by the Swiss Federal Railways (SBB) to undertake the planning, overall project management, and construction management. The planning was based on a BIM model in Allplan Engineering.
Infrastructure Policy Watch: UK government reviews road and rail development policy
The UK's Secretary of State for Transport, Grant Shapps MP, has announced a full review of the National Policy Statement (NPS) for national networks covering major roads and rail. NPSs outline the UK government's strategic policy intent for infrastructure development and are used as part of the planning system to determine if a proposed project should be granted development consent. The review aims to bring the national networks NPS in line with commitments to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050. The secretary of state said: "The current National policy statement (NPS) on national networks, the government's statement of strategic planning policy for major road and rail schemes, was written in 2014 – before the government's legal commitment to net zero, the 10-point plan for a green industrial revolution, the new sixth carbon budget and most directly the new, more ambitious policies outlined in the transport decarbonisation plan."
Infrastructure Policy Watch: UKIB goes live, Singapore brings in global sustainability experts
Article | June 29, 2021
The new UK Infrastructure Bank (UKIB) recently opened, with its remit confirmed by the UK government in a new Framework Document. The document sets out the role of the bank as providing: "leadership to the market in the development of infrastructure and new infrastructure technologies, crowding-in private capital and reducing risk through its cornerstone investments and range of financial products. It will bolster the government's lending to local government for large and complex projects through its expertise and scrutiny, and help to bring private and public sector stakeholders together to regenerate regions and create new opportunities." It will have two strategic objectives, to help tackle climate change and support regional and local economic growth. Given these two objectives may conflict, the Framework Document suggests "where an investment is primarily to support economic growth, the Company will ensure that it does not do significant harm against its climate objective."

Help them be their best. Performance and energy supplements do more than help improve stamina and energy efficiency in horses. They also provide nutrients for supporting physical and mental performance, as well as cardiovascular, immune, and neurological function. Energy supplements in particular can help promote stamina and energy for horses known to tire easily.


In this edition of the Paperless People Podcast we follow the stories of two families in Assam, India, exploring how new cases of statelessness and legal invisibility are being created in this region on a worrying scale. Through these stories and expert analysis, we explore how the UN Sustainable Development Goals may struggle to achieve what they set out to do if the approach to implementation and monitoring does not account for structural discrimination that is too often leaving certain people behind: in this case the new stateless community in India.
This episode was created in close partnership with the Development and Justice Initiative, a human rights organization based in India. With thanks to Ravi Hemadri, Leander Toppo and their team.

Gorilla Adventures - Critique and Summary
Africa The Greatest Adventure
by Dilek & Vedran
We have achieved the objective of this trip. We saw the big apes: the chimpanzees and the gorillas. We were both very lucky and very unlucky on our gorilla trek. A team member broke her leg and had to suffer the consequences for the rest of the trip. On the other hand, we got to spend time with a gorilla family and their playful kid. Watching the family and interacting with them was simply amazing and definitely a Wow moment that we were hoping for. We were also hoping to get good photos of our distant relatives and we succeed in that as well despite very challenging photo conditions, in the dark rainforest with leaves messing with the focus. As an extra bonus, we once again had fun on our two village walks interacting with the villagers and playing with the kids. In Lake Nakuru, we got the opportunity to observe seven Rhinos grazing calmly together. We also enjoyed the company of some of the people on the trip and hope to stay in touch in the future. Other than that, the trip was about driving, driving and some more driving.
# The Truck
This was our second 14 days trip with an overland truck in Kenya so we could compare the price and quality with the last one in 2014 (then with the company Drifters). This truck was similar but way worse than on our last trip. The gAdventures truck should not be filled (22 people) since there is little leg room on some seats. Because of this problem we had to rotate seats every day. Other people's garbage, bags, clothes including underwear, water, food or gadgets were sometimes taking up room in your new seat. Mainly the limited legroom and people clothes hanging down in front of Windows (see photo) got frustrating during the 14 day trip with long drives of up to 8+ hours.
Other problems with this truck included a lot more work for the team than our previous trip. The madrases were on top of the truck and the backpacks in the back stacked on top of each other. Our previous truck was bigger, better designed and less crowded. Each person had their own locker for bags, the windows were bigger, roof taller, seats forward, large windows in front, big hole in the front to speak directly to the crew etc. As the crew said: "This truck keeps you busy". Some people were helping out a lot more than others, but the work morale was overall very good.
# The Crew
The crew was comfortable in the front driver seats and could not fix our problems during the drives. The truck was not full but overfilled. This caused a variety of problems, among other security problems. Since it was very tight and uncomfortable in some seats the seat belts were not used. The crew mentioned it once in the beginning, but never again. Therefore it seemed to be just a routine reminder and not a real safety concern. The crew also failed, all but few times, in asking and making sure that everyone was onboard after a stop. Luckily, no road incidents happened.
The communication was difficult using a button and microphone in the front. We received none to very little guidance about the area during the drive. We passed by several scenic and photogenic spots but did not stop on any, despite a request. Lunch breaks were instead next to the road. At one point we stopped for lunch 5 meters from burning garbage pile. As the smelly smoke blew over us we went back into the truck requesting another spot.
The crew was very keen on arriving to the campsite early and summarized the day as very good if we arrived early, despite only driving all day. Sometimes we arrived at 15 or earlier and had nothing to do until sunset (around 19). We organized ourselves a city walk, a forest walk, a village walk and a lake walk. In the lack of activities, other people organized party activities in the camp and in the city. The crew organized a Tea plantation walk and a dance show, but these were both focused on explaining the hard life of children and asking for money. Understandable, but not what we paid for.
We did not get the phone numbers to the guide despite it would have been necessary on all activities, like in the case of the gorilla trek and a broken leg. We had to call the main gAdventures office that would call the local subcontractor of gAdventures in Kenya, that would then call our crew members.
The crew might have been afraid of confrontation (and thereby losing some tip). They did not manage to do anything about issues that arose, even after complaints. The complaints were however polite and in good mood. Everyone tried to do the best of the situation. We knew we are in Africa and had lowered our standards significantly. Our problems were nothing compared to what poor people of these countries experienced daily. For that reason, we will leave out some of the complaints eg. not enough food.
One of the major issues was excessive drinking and a few cases of alcohol poisoning. This resulted in vomiting between the tents, drunk people getting lost in the night, trying to enter the wrong tents, drunk people sleeping outside the campsite at night, drunk people losing the passport (and finding it with engaging many people), drunk people getting high. The list goes on. During one of the occasions, the entire fridge box of water bottles was emptied by a few people (wanted to celebrate the Australia Day) and replaced by alcohol. Four liters of vodka, several wines and beers were consumed on that night.
The crew did participate in the drinking but only with a couple of beers per night or less. One of the critiques from the other team members was that the crew did not party enough with them. During these 14 days, Vedran and Dilek had shared 3 beers and 1 wine glass. On another occasion, a "Booze cruise" was organized as an optional activity including open bar. The activity is named the "Nile sunset cruise" in the gAdventures itinerary, however, it was not on the Nile river and the local cruise organizer called it the "Booze cruise" several times during the sales pitch. It was 45 USD per person and we opted out, mainly because it was not the Nile. Most others went and make sure to get their money worth in Booze. Needless to say, that was the alcohol climax of the trip. Even Mia, who participated in the previous drinking game, but not on the Booze cruise, called it a Whole new level of drunk. That is probably because some people also got High in addition to the drinking. We were very surprised to hear that and witnessed some crazy behavior during that night. The gAdventures policy is very strict on this point, not to mention the possibility of being imprisoned in Uganda. These young people were taking large risks. We didn't say anything to the crew about this since we did not witness the acts ourselves and we did not want to spoil their trips. Some of them were on their 50 days trip across Africa and gAdventures would have probably have sent them home because of this. Our own trip, however, would have been a lot better without the excessive amount of drugs (alcohol) used by more than half of the team participants.
In addition to the alcohol issues, there were some issues with hygiene. The cool box was too unhygienic to use for water storage after drinking games. This resulted in about 20 paces of large 5+ liters water containers bean places between the already full truck, rolling around and requiring constant moving. Few people insisted on grabbing the food from the buffet with their fingers despite the availability of forks. On some occasions one person was digging through the tomato slices, stirring them before settling for one of the pieces. After a while, these behaviors seemed accepted by others. The crew was told early on, acted surprised that this was happening and did nothing. Another hygiene issue was dishwashing. Everyone was supposed to wash their own after breakfast and lunch. The washing sponge was very outworn, and some people barely washed their plates, glasses, and forks in the cold water. Some mentioned stomach problems, but that could have been the alcohol as well. We did not get stomach problems since we had taken Dukural vaccine. However, we got sick on the last day with fever and throat pain and slept for most of the day and night in Nairobi.
# The Price
We got back to Nairobi hotel at 12:30. Didn't leave any tip to the crew. They did their job in feeding us and taking us there and back.
Comparing to the last 14-day trip two years previously (a much better trip) to Masai Mara, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro, this trip was 400 euros more expensive per person. 2000 euro per person for 14 days in tents and basic food is very expensive for Kanya/Uganda. However, the license for going on the Gorilla hike is very expensive and explains the steep cost.
The gAdventure brochure matched the actual tour, but not more. We had given tip to the local guides on village tours, purchased crafts from the local village, brought presents to the children and left some of our clothes. Most other people on the team gave tips to the crew. They might think they had a better time because their standards were lower, this was their first big trip or they were so very happy to drink and hang out.

Q: How can I collect all the text items in the below tags into a dictionary with name as key and year as value? I've been trying to get the values of all the tags inside every movie tag(individually) into a dictionary with the 'name' - name of the movies as keys and year as value.
{"a": 2018 , "b":2017, "c":2017, "d".2016}

I'm a newbie to Stackoverflow and I hope I've provided all the details and met all the community
Please find the minimum reproducible XML code here
<collection>
    <movie>
        <name>a</name>
        <year>2018</year>
    </movie>
    <movie>
        <name>b</name>
        <year>2017</year>
    </movie>
    <movie>
        <name>c</name>
        <year>2017</year>
    </movie>
    <movie>
        <name>d</name>
        <year>2016</year>
    </movie>
    <movie>
        <name></name>
        <year></year>
    </movie>
</collection>

I've tried multiple things using ElementTree and XPath, but I'm unable to fetch the values as mentioned above.
    If anything, I was able to fetch all the values in the name tag together and all the values in the year tag together - which is absolutely of no use and hence I'm not posting those codes here.
This is the outputI'm able to get...
[2018,2017,2017,2016]
[a,b,c,d]

But this is of no use if there are tags like the below one with incomplete values
<movie>
        <name>d</name>
        </year>
</movie>
<movie>
        <name></name>
        <year>2016</year>
</movie>

Murray S. Greenfield is an American-born Israeli writer and publisher.

History
In Israel, Greenfield began working in Haifa, seeking foreign investors to deposit capital in the Palestinian Economic Cooperation. In the early days of Israel's existence, most philanthropists only thought of donating charity to poverty-stricken immigrants.

Greenfield later settled in Tel Aviv with his bride, Hana Lustigova. He was one of the founding members of the Association of Americans and Canadians in Israel (AACI), wherein he later served as executive director. Under his directorship, the AACI flourished; Greenfield pioneered and established loan funds, a mortgage company, and a variety of housing projects in Jerusalem, Tel Aviv, and kibbutzim.

Greenfield was always involved in public service, but the cause to which he dedicated the most time was rescuing Ethiopian Jewry; he was volunteer director for seven years of the American Association for Ethiopian Jewry (AAEJ).

In 1981, Greenfield founded Gefen Publishing House, later taken over by his sons, Dror and Ilan. After Dror's passing in 2003, Ilan continued to run the company. Today, Gefen publishes up to 35 titles a year and is the main English language publisher in Israel.

Family
Hana and Murray Greenfield had three children, Meira, Dror, and Ilan; and ten grandchildren, all of whom live in Israel. Dror Greenfield died in 2003, Hana Greenfield passed away in January 2014.

Books
In 2010 his best-known book, which he spent more than a decade researching, The Jews' Secret Fleet, was published, about the participation of North American sailors in Aliyah Bet. He was himself was just such a volunteer participant. The then-illegal vessels brought more than half of the Holocaust survivors from displaced persons camps to Palestine, over which the British gave up the British Mandate of Palestine, after which the United Nations voted to establish Israel.

In 1973, Greenfield published a book along with his wife titled How to be an Oleh, or Things the Jewish Agency Never Told You. He founded and contributed editorially to Israel's first-ever English language magazine, FrontPage, and later a monthly titled Rossvet, aimed at Russian immigrants. Hana, a Holocaust survivor, wrote Fragments of Memory, which has been published in six languages. Together they founded the Czech Torah Network.

Films

In 2008 a documentary film directed by Alan Rosenthal was released titled Waves of Freedom, which features Murray Greenfield. Rosenthal was inspired to create the documentary after reading Greenfield's book The Jews' Secret Fleet, which features an introduction by Sir Martin Gilbert. The Jews' Secret Fleet has achieved great success, and a new edition was published in 2010.

Reasoned Explanations Why Filipina Women Gets Bad Opinions
Since then, Carandang has become an inspiration for a lot of ladies throughout the country. For the primary time ever, a Filipina brought home the crown for winning the Miss Universe pageant in 1969. The victorious 18-year-old candidate was Gloria Diaz, who charmed the whole world along with her beauty and wit. After that remarkable night, Diaz continued to make history as she flew internationally to advertise advocacies. In 1917, Anastacia Giron-Tupas made history by becoming the Philippine General Hospital's first chief nurse and superintendent.
Duterte calls the aggressive infrastructure constructing coverage as 'Build, Build, Build'.
Indigenous women play key roles of their communities and past, talking up for women's empowerment, land conservation, human rights and more.
Flavier also talked about that "In the Philippine barrio, the one responsible for the house" and its administration "is the wife… she holds the key to… household… development."
Romance is an important part of the lifetime of a Filipino woman and he or she doesn't need to lose it in a relationship with a purely pragmatic man.
This report can directly impression the help, protection, and training of Filipina ladies and their children who are experiencing home violence.
Unintended pregnancy is frequent, in part due to the excessive unmet want for contraception. Compared to different nations, Filipino ladies have gained and enjoyed equal rights with males. They have served in authorities workplaces, and have held cabinet positions for presidents. Filipino girls have confirmed that they are capable of carrying out responsibilities and duties in addition to their male counterparts. They accounted for 21.6 percent of the whole 222 Representatives as members of the Lower House.
A Lethal Mistake Discovered on Filipino Women And How to prevent It
The conventional beliefs about the function of males and females in a relationship apply to them. Foreign males favor them as a result of they do not begin conflicts and will do all they will to keep away from wasting their relationship. Men love mail-order brides Philippines because they know they can have good instances with them. There are festivals, events, and occasions that they all the time gracefully attend.
The 2-Minute Rule for Filipino Women
By giving a voice to the IP Champions, they'll be ready to call for gender equality and equal participation in political choice making, particularly on issues that could enrich their families' and communities' well-being. Montoya has over two decades of experience in employment regulation and shopper safety defense. She is a member of Hinshaw's Diversity Committee in addition to a board member for each the National Association of Women Lawyers and the Lambda Legal Defense and Education Fund.
• Poor women, rural women and young women are significantly more likely to experience unintended pregnancy and to hunt abortion beneath unsafe situations. Juan Flavier, a physician average filipino women, an authority on community improvement, and a former Philippine senator, described in his guide, Doctor to the Barrios, that "whether or not some men are prepared to confess it or not"…
The Death of Filipina Women
Women undertake 50 % to 70 percent of local fish processing and advertising activities. They are additionally involved in mending the nets and tending the fishing gear, among others (Philippine NGO BPA+10 Report, 2005). As per an evaluation from January to September 2001, women comprised solely 34.8 p.c of total agrarian reform beneficiaries (Philippine NGO BPA+10 Report, 2005). Women's precise contribution to meals production and rural economic system remains undervalued if not invisible. As a outcome, girls have much less entry to productive resources than men do. Access to land, expertise, extension providers, capital, and infrastructure support tend to favour rural males . The common tendencies in the last two decades current a dim picture of the agriculture sector.
China is rising with its oblique contributions to Duterte's administration. The Chinese and Philippine-based capitalists continue to fund Duterte's upcoming elections, including social media troll farms that are creating a chilling effect also amongst young people. The people's tradition doesn't settle for divorce and abortion, and they're traditional and conservative. Consequently, if you need to marry a Filipino girl, you have to consider in making the wedding work throughout your lifetime. Many people usually draw back from getting right into a relationship with Filipino ladies because of the perceived language barrier.

Caseificio Vincenzo Quaglia S.r.l.
Dairy Number: CN903
12030 - Scarnafigi (CN)
tel 0175 74174 – fax 0175 74670
info@caseificioquaglia.it
www.caseificioquaglia.it
Today we meet Carlo Quaglia who tells us the history of his dairy, located in Scarnafigi but initially set up in the valley where the "Grana" river flows, between the Alps and the Langhe. An area which, besides the production of various PDO cheeses, also boasts excellent wines and an abundance of hazelnuts.
"There are not many Grana Padano producers like us left in Piedmont these days, and when the people from the Consortium come to see us, I always say they've reached the outer edges of the Grana Padano empire, using a reference to Roman history and the fact that we are right on the border. "
In this dairy, in addition to Grana Padano, four generations of cheesemakers have been producing Piedmont PDO cheeses, including Bra Tenero, Bra Duro, Toma and Raschera, a range of typical local products with different characteristics that meet the needs of all consumers.
All Caseificio Quaglia products are PDO certified, made in accordance with strict production specifications and with milk delivered from neighbouring municipalities to ensure maximum traceability.
We know personally and have a direct relationship with the milk suppliers, who are actually not just suppliers but also friends because they were my grandfather's and then my father's original suppliers."
The history of the dairy and that of Grana Padano have long been interwoven through all the changes that have taken place over the years.
From the white Piedmontese cattle breed that produced 2-2.5 tonnes of milk a year to the Friesian cow, which produces 15 tonnes of milk with different characteristics, resulting in changes in cheese production.
From the collection of warm milk in churns to the collection of cold milk in tanks.
From the skimming done in traditional tanks to computerized vats with a tap from which the milk is drained at different times so that, every morning, the milk is already skimmed to the right level and has the right fat content.
There has also been a change in the role of the cheesemaker: in the past he bore all the responsibility for how the cheese turned out, while today he is supported by technology, thus creating a link between tradition and innovation.
"These are revolutionary changes which only those who have lived through them can truly understand."
In addition to the dairy, the Quaglia family also runs a pig farm, a bit like people used to do in the old days. And in this case, too, we're talking about a PDO product because their hind legs are sold to make delicious Prosciutto di San Daniele ham.
Our thanks to Carlo Quaglia for sharing with us a fascinating bit of the history of our cheese!

Trope, Stock Characters, Character Flaw Index, Control Freak
"A bully, thought Susan. A very small, very weak, very dull bully, who doesn't manage any real bullying, because there's hardly anyone smaller or weaker than him, so he just settles for making everyone's life that little bit more difficult..."
—Hogfather, Terry Pratchett
Someone who is obsessed with doing everything rigid, proper, and by the book -- even (or especially) if it interferes with doing it right.
On TV, a Control Freak is usually not the big boss; they act the way they do because they're stuck in a professional rut and they want out. Most end up as big fish in small ponds, abusing what little authority they have and hopelessly trying to impress the boss by forcing underlings to fill out all forms in triplicate with identical number-two pencils.
Every Control Freak specializes in endless stories about their past achievements, usually involving the military and usually bogus. (See The Neidermeyer.)
With a bit more power, they're the Obstructive Bureaucrat. Ten steps beyond that is The Chessmaster. Often closely related to Pride.
Not to be confused with the Teen Titans villain named Control Freak.
Examples of Control Freak include:
Chiri of Sayonara, Zetsubou-sensei, who, like everyone else in the show, is an extreme exaggeration. Even her Cross-Popping Veins appear neatly and symmetrically.
In Mirai Nikki Yuno had control-freak parents who measured everything she did from how many hours she got to sleep to how many calories she had a day. They also kept her in a cage and starved her in an effort to raise her to be a model person.. So, at the end... Yuno snapped on them, locked them inside the same cage in a twisted and desperate attempt to get them to see how horribly they had treated her, and ultimately starved them to death.
In Sherry Belmont's backstory from Zatch Bell, her mother is shown to be one of these, dictating pretty much how she lived her life, putting her through Training From Hell, and coming inches from sending her over the Despair Event Horizon.
Light Yagami from Death Note shows signs of being this once L is out of his way, while Near and Mello are now the ones succeeding him especially when they managed to get past through him. Light has no qualms manipulating the Japanese Task Force, his girlfriends (Misa and Kiyomi), and Mikami to make sure that he imposes his law against anyone who dares to defy him.
Leetah in Elf Quest considers herself one of these: she wants to have complete control over her healing powers, going so far as to stab herself in the stomach to force her powers to surge. Granted, she was reacting to severe emotional trauma at the time, but she's admitted that the attitude extends to her daily life and her family. Often, her first reaction to panic is to take charge, heal everything in sight, fix what can be immediately fixed (even if it's a terrible idea to do so) and have a proper emotional breakdown later.
Sally Acorn had shades of this in the earlier more comical issues of Sonic the Hedgehog (and it's animated counterpart), usually butting heads with the reckless and free spirited Sonic as a result. This was diluted as the stories matured, the rare occasion she delves back in this trope are more Played for Drama.
Notably, while Paul is a Real Life Control Freak, he doesn't exhibit much of that in With Strings Attached, probably because he's not got a lot of control over his own body, let alone the circumstances the four have been thrust into.
All the characters in Brazil who are not heroes, love interests, or ninja plumbers are this.
First Officer Lieutenant Martin Pascal in Down Periscope.
Abby from The Ugly Truth.
"Ace" Rothstein in Casino. Such a perfectionist that he insists on an equal number of blueberries in every muffin.
In Stephen King's The Shining Ullman the hotel manager is like this. Jack Torrance thinks he is an "officious little prick" and this opinion is shared by more than one member of the Overlook's staff.
Even though most of the staff consider Ullman an officious little prick, they admit that he's good at his job. Watson, the maintenance man, who HATES Ullman admits that Ullman is good at at what he does and definitely earns his salary. Ullman is the first manager of the Overlook who's ever turned a profit for the place.
In Pride and Prejudice, there is only one correct way to do things, and that is Lady Catherine de Burgh's way... at least, in her head it is, and she's very fond of loudly and at length explaining to people what they should be doing. And as she's one of the landed gentry, people are very reluctant to disagree with her. This leads to a certain amount of tension when she eventually meets Elizabeth Bennet, who is not the sort of person to let other people push her around and bully her. Especially when one of the things that Lady Catherine believes is the "wrong" way of doing things is Elizabeth getting married to Mr. Darcy...
Charlie, a middle-manager in the tooth-fairy operation in the Discworld novel Hogfather, and the subject of the above quote. Takes severe pride in his work (making sure the cart-driver signs his paperwork), is quick to make it clear that any problems are someone else's fault, would be on a tropical island if the organisation didn't need him; and has never wondered what happens to the teeth, because that's not his job.
Brother Jerome in the Brother Cadfael novels and television series.
Dolores. Fucking. Umbridge.
In the Descent novelization, this is St. John's largest character flaw. To his credit, he does recognize this after the first book and begins taking steps to tone it down.
Gareth Keenan, The Office (and his counterpart on the American version of same, Dwight Schrute).
So is Angela Martin as the head of the party planning committee.
Captain Peacock, Are You Being Served
Arnold Rimmer Red Dwarf (example: he insists on meticulously inventorying the ship's massive food stocks, even though there's only two living creatures left on board and he isn't actually one of them).
Monica Geller, Friends.
Barney Fife, The Andy Griffith Show
Kate Gosselin, Jon and Kate Plus Eight.
Kathleen Mead, Degrassi Junior High
Liberty Van Zandt, Degrassi the Next Generation
Also, Emma Nelson. To the point where she developed anorexia.
Holly J for the later seasons.
Major Frank Burns, M* A* S* H
Mr. G, Summer Heights High.
Carlton Lassiter from Psych.
And also Henry Spencer, who once informed his son Shawn that Shawn wanted to be a cop. Shawn did not agree.
Taylor Doose, perennial Town Selectman (among other things), on Gilmore Girls.
Chloe in Smallville.
Which is nothing compared to Lex.
Lois on Malcolm in the Middle has been called this, but doesn't fit it to a T.
Georg Bjarnfredarson in Naeturvaktin is a textbook example.
Cindy from Season 19 of The Amazing Race admitted to being one of these, and pretty much confirmed it by controlling her fiance throughout the season. Before the race she made him prepare with her for any possible situation, including studying geography, intensive language courses, and rock climbing
Casey McDonald of Life with Derek has these tendencies, exemplified when she was making a documentary about her family for a school project. She actually fired family members from the cast when they wouldn't behave the way she wanted to portray them.
Dennis DeYoung, former lead singer of the American rock band Styx.
Axl Rose. Offend him in the slightest and you'll end up without a job.
Roger Waters. If David Gilmour is to be believed, his control-freak mode kicked in around 1977's Animals. It Got Worse with The Wall, which was almost entirely his writing, and culminated in The Final Cut, which infamously had the words "Written by Roger Waters; performed by Pink Floyd" printed on the back cover. Then he left the band and a series of lawsuits ensued involving who had the right to use the Animals pig and whether the rest of the band had the right to use the name "Pink Floyd."
Paul McCartney, during the final years of The Beatles. Semi-justified though, in that Lennon was preoccupied with his side projects/relationship with Yoko Ono and generally pissing off George Harrison and Ringo Starr off, to such a degree, that McCartney had to literally take over the recording sessions with an iron hand just to keep things going.
Even after the Beatles broke up. When The Beatles version of Twist and Shout" became a hit again after being in the movie Ferris Buellers Day Off McCartney was upset because a marching band in the movie was playing horns on it. Never mind the original Isley Brothers version actually did have horns on it!
Exhibit A: "Let It Be, Naked"
Noel Gallagher joined Oasis on the condition of taking creative control of the group and becoming its sole songwriter.
Don Henley was one; this was a major force in the Eagles' 1980 breakup.
So was David Byrne. The Talking Heads finally broke up when the other members had had enough.
Lawrence Hayward of Felt. (Actually, he was Felt.) Among other things, he once fired a drummer for having curly hair.
Calvin once asked his father what the term meant. The very favorable definition he received (along the lines of "It's what lazy people call someone who cares enough to do the job right") led Calvin to wonder aloud, "Am I in the presence of their king? Should I kneel?"
Former Indiana University basketball coach Bobby Knight, also known for his General Ripper tendencies off the court. Of course, when he was actually winning titles, nobody cared about his behavior...
Lucy from Thirteen is going to get her way. Or else.
ENGINES MUST OBEY CONTROL!! ENGINES MUST OBEY CONTROL!! DO!! WHAT!! YOU'RE!! TOLD!!!
Subverted once everyone shouts: "Shut it, control!!"
Exalted: She Who Lives In Her Name is the literal embodiment of control freakishness. Her Charmset has large chunks devoted to stripping those annoying little hairless apes of their free will so they have to do what they're told. There's a reason she's known as the Principle of Hierarchy.
If you're a villain with The Joker as your mentor in DC Universe Online, he'd comment that Brainiac is a Control Freak that "makes Batman look slightly neurotic".
One of the female bullies, Meg, from Rule of Rose. Highly intelligent, but inflexible, she holds the third highest spot under the Princess of the Rose.
Andrew Ryan became this by the time of Bioshock 1 as he started implementing more extreme measures to stay in control of Rapture, eventually turning Rapture into an elitist dictatorship, the kind of thing he despised.
The Allies in Red Alert 3 Paradox control freak tendencies end up isolating the United States when they take over the government to prevent infiltration.
In Misfile, Ash's father Edward used to be this, to the point that Ash's mother abandoned them both when Ash was three. Edward has since learned from his mistakes, and subscribes to a Hands-Off Parenting approach with Ash.
Miwa in Never Mind the Gap has tendencies of this kind, especially when aggressively playing matchmaker.
Mr. Herriman, Fosters Home for Imaginary Friends.
Hermes Conrad, Futurama is a parody in two ways; first, he knows what he is and revels in it; second, he also has elements of the stereotypical laid-back Jamaican interspersed with his Obstructive Bureaucrat persona.
Frylock from Aqua Teen Hunger Force is usually the straight man and voice of reason, but some of his more pathetic moments approach a Control Freak (especially when he's trying to entertain anyone).
Mechanicles in Aladdin, the animated series; though he was more of an obsessive-compulsive flavour, with dashes of scheduling mania.
Principal Skinner on The Simpsons has shades of this, though his war stories are never to impress anyone, more to traumatise them. This is the main reason he'll never impress his boss, the more laid-back Superintendent Chalmers, since he gets on Chalmers' nerves.
Mr. Huph, Bob's boss in The Incredibles is certainly a cut from this mold. Granted, Bob isn't a great employee for an insurance firm (given his conscience won't let him deny any claims), but Huff's pure bullying nature and reactions of offended dignity point to Bob not quite being the problem here. He even gives Bob a pre-planned disciplinary speech much like the "monolouges" given by the super-villains Bob used to fight as Mr. Incredible. While cartoonish, his comeuppance is way too satisfying to watch. The commentary on the DVD reveals that director Brad Bird, who had been fired from his first two jobs, had middle-management bosses like Huff.
One showed up in the last Courage the Cowardly Dog episode. Courage defeats her when his imperfectness proves to be too much for her to handle.
Jen from Sixteen, being pretty obviously the Monica of the Friends-based group, gets accused of being this fairly often.
Im American Dad, Stan Smith is such a Control Freak that the Almighty Himself called him out on it:
God: Stop trying to control everything!
Stan: I don't do that!
God: Stan, you're holding a gun to God's head. I can't even think of a better metaphor than this!
Played with in Tale Spin with Rebecca Cunningham, the boss of Higher for Hire. While she has a rather shrill attitude and frequently manipulates or bullies Baloo and the others into following her schemes, she fails to have much intimidation over them or take much action against their own incompetant or obnoxious habits, leading her to come off more as a bossy friend than a domineering boss.
Rabbit of Winnie the Pooh whose overattention to detail and zero tolerance for his friends' nonsense often leads to him acting as this. A Nightmare Fuelish dream sequence in Springtime For Roo portrays his overbearing demeanor as becoming so intolerable that everyone in the Hundred Acre Wood leaves home just to get away from it all.
Menlo from Recess
Of course, this is also Truth in Television. There are people at school or work who either demand that they tell the rest of the group what to do since they know best or forcibly push their own ideas onto the others without listening to the opinions of the other people, especially when they think that they are faultless.
Whether it's school, college, or business, no matter how "well-intended" the control freak's contributions and/or help may be, it never ends well for anyone involved... the controllers themselves included.
Control freaks can also pop up in cooperative video games. In games where massive teamwork is necessary, there will sometimes be a player who will constantly tell other players what to do and treat them like they never played the game before.
And more often than not, the people who constantly bark orders are usually the players with the least amount of skill in the team.
"Stop Having Fun!" Guys can also be this, insisting on playing the game a certain way and criticizing you if you "do it wrong".
A Scrub can also do the same thing, telling people that you should play their way because it's more fair.
Natsuki Takaya, the author of Fruits Basket, is regarded as such due to her behavior during the Troubled Production of the 2001 anime.

After completing an activity, an employee requests a rating. A ratings request may be sent to a supervisor, peer, client, customer or any/all of the above. It takes just a few seconds to make an online feedback request and just a few seconds to provide the requested rating. Skillrater feedback is provided in the form of simple one-to-five ratings on day-to-day activities and skills. Supervisors identify the skills needed to excel at specific activities, and those skills became the criteria for the numeric ratings. Thus, the feedback Skillrater generates is not "all over the charts," but is carefully aligned to business strategy and goals. Along with metric-based ratings, Skillrater provides a familiar social network environment in which qualitative communication can also be exchanged. That's Skillrater's dual-tracked feedback: one-to-five ratings which are easy to give, receive and measure against time, alongside qualitative suggestions, praise and instructions.
Skillrater works as a great plug-in to complement any integrated talent management (ITM) suite.
