Perhaps the most powerful message from the research is that relationships are a matter of student perception. They have little to do with how a teacher actually feels about students; it's what teachers do that dictates how students perceive those relationships.. This fact can be quite liberating.
Relating Content to Students' Lives. Make mental or physical notes of students' hobbies, culture, and interests. Be aware of the larger themes in each text or unit of study. Help bridge the content to students' lives with comments, questions, or observations.
Broome-area students say best teachers relate to them, make them think 'It's nice when you can talk to a teacher, when it's interactive' It seems with the first day of school approaching, a Binghamton Press reporter interviewed area high school students to get their perspective on what makes a good teacher.
"Give students a choice of assignments on a particular topic, or ask them to design one of their own. "When students are involved in designing the lesson," write Immordino-Yang and Faeth, "they better understand the goal of the lesson and become more emotionally invested in and attached to the learning outcomes." 3.
How a teacher relates to his or her students has tremendous influence on a student's learning experience. So Matthew G. Mandelbaum of Fordham University and PsySoEd Dynamics, LLC asked childhood and early-childhood educators about the approaches they use in their classrooms to solve problems and maintain motivation.
Make sure each student's strengths are well-known to the rest of the class. If a student has an unpleasant history of failure or misbehavior, make it clear that it is time for a fresh start. Make it a point to recognize students who work well with others. Whenever possible, praise the entire class for its cooperative attitude.

Labour Must Urgently Engage with the Regions if it is to Recover from its Defeat
Ian Lucas
The former Labour MP for Wrexham – a seat snatched by the Conservatives in the General Election – believes it is an indictment of Jeremy Corbyn's leadership that his frontbench did not engage effectively with the regions.
Amid the carnage of the General Election result, Labour must, immediately, start thinking. One of the urgent areas of necessary action is Labour's regional policy, stalled since 2010.
The Conservatives have been rewarded for being more imaginative and active in developing a form of devolution within England which Labour has conspicuously failed to do since 2010.
Though the main area of immediate attention will be the impact of Brexit, the Conservatives have also been active across England in developing growth deals, adding to their establishment of metropolitan mayors in the major urban conurbations. They have also been sufficiently imaginative to set up growth deals in the devolved nations, giving a focus for their MPs there, where they are in opposition. Although Labour retains mayoral positions through national figures such as Andy Burnham, Dan Jarvis and Steve Rotherham, the Conservative Government and its regional MPs retain influence through their financial control of growth deals.
The candidates for the Labour leadership need to be creative in this policy area in a way in which Ed Miliband and Jeremy Corbyn never were.
The Man in the High Castle: How to Evict the Conservatives from their Nationalist Redoubt
Musa Okwonga
They should start by pressing the new Conservative administration to reintroduce an underrated initiative first introduced by Gordon Brown's Government. Regional ministers in the House of Commons, held to account by regional select committees, can be a creative policy initiative which Labour can propose as the Opposition. They also cost virtually nothing.
As a Business Minister before 2010, I worked with effective regional ministers to rebuild regional economies after the world financial crisis. They were an effective link to regional economies, highly regarded by wealth creators in the regions, as they were a direct link through to central government. They can work with metro mayors and, importantly, local government in those town and rural areas which do not have mayoral representation.
At present, the Conservative Government has created a patchwork of regional ministers, with very little direct accountability to the House of Commons and excluding large swathes of the country from direct, regional ministerial representation.
If it exerts pressure on the Conservative Government to remedy this, Labour could, finally, steal a march on the Tories in the early days of this Parliament by proposing them, perhaps in the context of a Labour leadership contest. Both Lisa Nandy and Yvette Cooper, working respectively through the Centre for Towns group and the Labour Towns group, have recognised the issues relating to the exclusion of non-metropolitan regional areas and the alienation those communities feel.
It is an indictment of Jeremy Corbyn's leadership that, in my experience, his frontbench failed to engage with these groups and these issues.
Such Parliamentary groups, especially if they become formal select committees, could be very effective. As MP for Wrexham until this year's General Election, I established the cross-party, cross-border All Party Parliamentary Group of MPs for North Wales and Mersey/Dee in 2015. The response from that unique, geographical area was a high level of engagement with the devolved Welsh Assembly, from universities – a crucial driver of regional economic growth – and from business, all of which were very anxious to engage with Parliament and Government. I am confident that other areas across the UK would react in the same way.
This work will, of course, now take place in the context of the UK leaving the EU. The previous Tory Government proposed a 'regional prosperity fund' to replace European Union structural funding but scant detail of its substance was ever revealed. Its detail is now crucial to the development of post-EU regional policy. It will doubtless be a battleground between the devolved governments and the UK Government and regional representatives be they mayors, council leaders or MPs.
Expectations are high in the regions and much political focus will be on how the Conservative Government will use the apparent financial proceeds generated by Brexit.
The Labour Opposition needs, in a long overdue process, to devise a coherent, effective set of proposals for the regions and, at the same time, hold the Tory Government to account over its promises to those who live there.

ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP)– Minnesota wildlife officials tried for six days to capture a bear that had a plastic jar stuck over its head, but ended up killing the animal after it wandered into a city during a festival.
The wild black bear — whose head got stuck inside a 2-gallon clear plastic jug presumably while foraging for food — ambled into the city of Frazee, about 200 miles northwest of the Twin Cities, during the town's busy Turkey Days celebration.
"When it got into town, our main concern was public safety," said Rob Naplin, the Department of Natural Resources' area wildlife supervisor in Park Rapids.
The bear was first reported near the town of Lake George, about 60 miles east of Frazee, on July 21. While the bear could breathe, it couldn't eat or drink and was likely suffering from dehydration and hunger.
"I'm sure there was high anxiety and frustration with its predicament," Naplin said.
There was no evidence the bear was baited by hunters, Naplin said. The legal baiting season doesn't open until Aug. 15. The bear season opens Sept. 1.
In the six days that followed the initial sighting of the bear, officials tried to trap it, tranquilize it in numerous locations, but to no avail.
By the time the animal showed up in Frazee, conservation officers decided it needed to be killed to avoid conflicts with humans.
Do these guys not know how to use a tranquilizer gun?


For this expedition we are delighted to be working with our associates at Hapag-Lloyd Cruises and their five-star vessel, the Hanseatic Inspiration. This unusual voyage is a true Arctic Odyssey, combining Greenland's west coast of great towering cliffs, walls of glacial ice, winding fjords, vast ice-sheets and flowing glaciers with the remote Canadian Arctic Archipelago with its diverse wildlife, history and rich Inuit culture. Lying north of mainland Canada, the archipelago consists of 94 major islands and forms the world's largest High Arctic land area. Here we follow in the footsteps of the legendary explorers including Amundsen, Baffin and Franklin, who over the course of 300 years risked their lives to search the Arctic for the fabled Northwest Passage between the Atlantic and the Pacific Oceans.
We begin our journey in coastal Greenland, one of the last great wilderness areas where man has made little difference to the landscape and tourists are still a rarity. It is a marvel to behold; for most visitors their first encounter with Greenland is a humbling experience as they witness nature in the raw and look out across a magnificent Arctic world. From here we cruise to the Canadian Arctic where we have the benefit of six days to explore the fjords and islands, including Baffin Island and Devon Island, the world's largest uninhabited island with its Mars-like topography. Witness the incredible wilderness scenery of fjords, glaciers, mountains and pack ice and encounter small indigenous communities - cruising through this region is an unforgettable experience. The region is also home to a rich animal kingdom and we hope to spot seals, whales, polar bears, caribou, musk ox, walrus, Arctic wolves and foxes as well as thousands of seabirds that nest in the cliffs. Returning to the northwest coast of Greenland we observe as the Hanseatic Inspiration meanders through spectacular colossal accumulations of peculiarly shaped icebergs in Disko Bay followed by a call into Sisimiut, home to some 5300 inhabitants.
Highlights will be numerous and we will make good use of the fleet of Zodiacs as we navigate small bays and view icebergs of all shapes and sizes. After a day of exploring you will return to the five-star Hanseatic Inspiration where you can be assured of excellent service, food and sumptuous surroundings and, in between the landings and while at sea, you can pass the time on deck looking for wildlife, attend the series of lectures by members of the expedition team or simply relax on board enjoying the facilities. This expedition promises to be a unique experience bringing with it new thrills with spectacular natural experiences in a world far away from the stresses of modern life.
Operated by our German associates, Hapag-Lloyd Cruises, the Hanseatic Inspiration is a new five-star expedition ship due to launch in October 2019. With a maximum of just 230 passengers (199 passengers in Antarctica), this unique vessel offers an informal and relaxed atmosphere on board with more open deck space than any other expedition ship. There is a qualified expedition team of naturalists who will accompany you ashore and provide informative talks in the comfort of the well-designed HanseAtrium, and a crew of 175 offering the most exquisite and attentive service on board.
Please note that the images shown are artist impressions. Whilst the décor may differ slightly, the overall look and design of the vessel once launched will be very similar to the images shown.
Day 1 - London to Dusseldorf, Germany.
Fly by scheduled flight. Arrive this afternoon and transfer to our hotel for an overnight stay.
Please note that the departure airport for the charter flight to Greenland is subject to change. Should it be necessary to change to another airport in Germany, we will advise and amend the flight from London and hotel accommodation accordingly.
Day 2 - Dusseldorf to Kangerlussuaq, Greenland.
After breakfast in the hotel transfer to the airport for our specially chartered flight to Kangerlussuaq. On arrival transfer to the Hanseatic Inspiration for embarkation. Sail this evening.
Day 3 - At Sea.
Enjoy a day at sea as we cruise towards Uummannaq. Join one of the lectures or relax and enjoy the facilities on board.
Continue the story of exploration in the far north as we reach Uummannaq with its colourful houses and the striking backdrop of a heartshaped mountain shimmering red. Uummannaq was founded in 1763 and has approximately 1200 residents and seven surrounding villages. The economy of Uummannaq revolves largely around the fish-processing factory.
Day 5 - At Sea.
Today we continue to cruise the Greenland coast, keep a look out for the polar bears, seals, whales and seabirds that are prevalent here.
Days 6 to 9 - Baffin Island, Devon Island, Ellesmere Island & Jones Sound, North Canadian Arctic.
Experience Inuit culture and history in Pond Inlet on Baffin Island. Awaiting us is a warm welcome from the inhabitants of this traditional settlement surrounded by snow-covered mountain ranges on Eclipse Sound. The robust Zodiacs are the only way to explore this region, including Devon Island, the world's largest uninhabited island. Gleaming blue ice is reflected in the crystal-clear water, and with luck you will spot some mighty musk oxen and cute lemmings. The Hanseatic Inspiration continues further north, reaching Ellesmere Island and its abandoned outpost of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. In the clear polar air, cruising through Jones Sound presents unique Arctic panoramas. Finally, immerse yourself in the seldom-visited waters of Smith Sound.
Day 10 - At Sea.
Enjoy the day cruising through Smith Sound, home to Arctic foxes and polar bears. Be on deck for the opportunity to spot some Arctic species.
Day 11 - Pim Island (Nares Strait).
A reverent silence hangs in the air, broken only by an isolated crack of glacier ice or the call of a kittiwake. Our expedition ship reaches redrocked Pim Island, which is highly popular with polar bears and Arctic foxes and from here on in, the ice determines the course. Following the call of the north, the Hanseatic Inspiration cruises through the icy waters of the Nares Strait, where expedition history was made.
Days 12 to 15 - Northwest coast of Greenland.
Siorapaluk, Greenland's most northerly settlement, is a remote place on the strait of Smith Sound where approximately 80 inhabitants earn their living from hunting and fishing. Further south, the colourful houses of the young settlement of Qaanaaq form a beautiful chessboard pattern. Named Old Thule before the Cold War, it was moved to make way for a military base and given a new name. Pioneers such as Robert Edwin Peary set out from Old Thule for the North Pole. Cape York, where we will board Zodiacs to explore the icy landscape, still has a memorial to the great American explorer. Greenland's Cape Constitution, where Elisha Kane proudly raised the American flag in 1854, is also of historical significance.
Day 16 - At Sea.
Enjoy a relaxing day at sea. Join one of the lectures in the HanseAtrium or relax with a book in the lounge.
Days 17 & 18 - Western coast of Greenland.
Passing through the Vaigat Strait, we head for Ilulissat, closing in on another highlight of our expedition: even well-travelled visitors are left speechless by the imposing ice fjord. Experience gigantic ice formations in the famous Disko Bay: massive blocks of ice which have broken off the glacier drift in the sea – one of the most impressive spectacles in Greenland. A magical world of blue and white for us to discover on the Hanseatic Inspiration and in the Zodiacs, depending on the ice. In the old town of Sisimiut, historic houses cling to steep cliffs, while a museum and two churches reflect the city's exciting history as a missionary station and trading post. Together with the experts, there will be the opportunity to hike to Tele Island.
Day 19 - Kangerlussuaq to Dusseldorf, Germany.
Disembark this morning and transfer to the airport for our chartered flight from Kangerlussuaq to Dusseldorf. On arrival in Dusseldorf transfer to our hotel for an overnight stay.

Lily Collins Covers PORTER, Jacquemus Ends The Year On A High
Lily Collins opens up to PORTER
Lily Collins is gracing the new digital cover of PORTER, dishing on everything from what's in store for her Netflix alter ego Emily Cooper to real life situations revolving around privacy, self-care, being true to herself, and even her guilty pleasure reality TV show of choice—Real Housewives, duh. Of her journey in the spotlight since the age of 2, she says: "I'm definitely someone who overthinks all the time. I've always been a real advocate of self-care, self-reflection, journaling, therapy–whatever it is that helps you center. For me, there is so much of my life that's lived publicly, so I want to make

I cannot find bins of loose nuts for sale by the pound anywhere! Used to find them every autumn: walnuts, brazil nuts, hazelnuts, pecans. Now I only find shelled and bagged nuts. Nuts to this! Any help? I'm in Alexandria, VA.
I see there is a Fresh Market in Vienna, but am afraid that a bit too far afield to go for nuts. Nuts! Wish they'd open one closer to Alexandria!!
Hi Cookbookchick, I go to Annaplois for TJ's and Whole Foods. Where is Fresh Market?
Is there a Fresh Market near you? We have one in Annapolis and I believe they have bins of loose nuts.
I feel your pain. One other suggestion is to try online places. Depending the kind of nuts you are looking for you can buy them in bulk directly from growers. Some come in true bulk sizes (i.e. 25 lb) but with considerable savings. If you use them as much as I do, it's worth it. Oregon and Washington state sources of hazelnuts for example can be found pretty easily.
Made the trek to HMart in Annandale today and it's in a lovely, quiet little shopping center. VERY busy place packed with every gorgeous vegetable and meat and fish you can imagine...Don't go near the condiment or noodle aisles--you'll be overwhelmed. We ended up finding only walnuts, but found plenty of other things that were missing from our Asian pantry. Still on the trek for loose nuts. Suggestions welcome.
Gosh, where do you live? Have you tried a good market, such as Whole Foods, or the bulk bins section (usually refrigerated) of a health food store?

Interview with FLOYD NORMAN: AN ANIMATED LIFE directors Michael Fiore & Erik Sharkey
tags: David J. Fowlie, Erik Sharkey, film, Floyd Norman, Floyd Norman: An Animated Life, interview, Michael Fiore
With the release of their new documentary "Floyd Norman: An Animated Life" on August 26th, I recently had the opportunity to speak with directors Michael Fiore and Erik Sharkey over the phone. These guys had the pleasure of getting to know legendary Disney artist and all-around nice guy, Floyd Norman, with the intent of introducing him to viewers and confirming just how important and influential he is to filmmaking, especially animation. Their film recently screened at San Diego Comic-Con, where it won a Best Documentary Award and is now seeing a limited theatrical release as well as digital platforms such as iTunes, Amazon and VOD.
Our brief interview proved to be very easy-going and quite informative. These guys have learned to master the art of making the interviewee comfortable, which can prove to be helpful for any documentary filmmaker, but I must say I wound up feeling quite at ease as we spoke about the process of making this wonderful documentary. You can find my full review of their film here, but all you need to know is that "Floyd Norman: An Animated Life" is about a Disney artist veteran who worked on classics such as "The Jungle Book" and "Sleeping Beauty", who was forced to retire at age 65. Now at age 81, Norman has been rehired by Disney and serves as a consultant for younger artists, taking odd jobs here and there. He is a youthful man who has no intention of quitting anytime soon and Michael Fiore and Erik Sharkey are two filmmakers who saw in Norman someone who should be shared with the whole world….
David J. Fowlie: I'd like to start off by asking when you guys first learned of Floyd Norman?
Erik Sharkey: Well, I first met Floyd Norman at Comic-Con in San Diego a couple years ago when I was there promoting a documentary I directed on Drew Struzan, who did the poster art for "Star Wars" and "Indiana Jones"….
DJF: I know it well. I saw it and enjoyed it.
ES: Oh great. And he came to an event we had and it's not often that you're talking to somebody and they say, "Well, when I was working with Walt Disney on "The Jungle Book"…." (everyone laughs) And he had all these great stories about Disney and working on all these classics and working at Pixar and he was so charming and he had such a great personality that we wanted people to know about him and felt it'd make for a great movie. Luckily, Michael reached out to me and he wanted to make another film and I told him about the idea and I'm very grateful that Michael wanted to make this movie too.
Michael Fiore: Yeah, we share common bond in our mutual friend and music composer Ryan Shore, who worked on this film and scored "Drew: The Man Behind the Poster" and I've been working with him since 1999. And, I knew of Erik through Ryan but had never met him. And, so I was aware of the "Drew" doc and I cold-called and asked him, "So, what are you working on next?" And I had just come off of a movie – a feature narrative that's just coming out this winter from Screen Gems called "Keep Watching". And so this was back in the early winter of 2014 and he got on the phone and we talked and he pitched me this story in particular and I was like, "Oh my God! It's a no-brainer!" And so we sat down about twice within a two week time and within a week or two of that we were in L.A. and we were filming and we just said, "Let's keep this easy – let's you and me and a small supportive team, you know a sound man and a P.A. – and let's just do it ourselves. Let's control our net gain, instead of the opposite, where you're working with notable producers and actors and, it's just like, let's do something that's so creatively fulfilling" – and it has been.
DJF: Great. So, what was Floyd's response when you approached him about making a documentary about his life?
ES: Right away, he was really open about it. He was flattered and excited about it. Floyd is the one who loves to share his history and his stories and his experiences. So, it definitely wasn't a hard sell. When me and Michael went out to L.A. he was very happy to open up his home to us and take us around the animation building and Walt Disney studios. So, he was game right away.
MF: He would talk in such a way that it was almost bemoaning, he would say, "I just don't understand why anybody would want to tell a story about me" (everyone laughs) He's so humble. He means it. And it's just so funny, because it's like "Absolutely! You are the history of animation – well beyond Disney, you know with Hanna-Barbera and Pixar and all these other things – and it's like, of course we want to make a documentary about you." I was always shocked that no one had. What was interesting was, his wife Adrienne, who we've come to know very well – she's wonderful and equally talented as an artist. She works at Disney Publishing where she does beautiful work. She was the one, the first time Erik and I walked into their house, she looked at us and – when you first meet her she's just very deadpan, she's just staring at us, "Now why do you want to tell a movie about Floyd?" (laughs) And she wanted to know, you know, why we were here and we proved to her at Comic-Con – just two weeks ago – she thanked us and said "I love you guys. Thank you for doing this". She seemed very appreciative, but the first couple weeks she was naturally very protective. She kind of acts as his manager. So, I don't blame her at all, but it was funny to see the evolution, because it started off with like, "Why do you guys want to do this? What are your intentions?"And then she realized that we only had the best of intentions and so she was thrilled to be a part of it.
DJF: That's great. Are there any aspects of his life that you had to cut out for the sake of time or in thinking of the overall flow of the movie?
MF: Oh yeah. I mean, we had a three-hour cut of the movie about a year ago that we really fast-tracked. The editorial process went very very quickly. And we had to just say, "Let's look at what we have. And the first hour of that cut was really his time at Disney, which is now condensed in the form that everyone is going to see on Friday. It's condensed down really to about 15-20 minutes of Act One. And we were in love with that hour-long segment that was filled with all these Disney details, but on the flip side, we were covering eighty years of one person's life and then fifty to sixty of a career. Covering Disney that much just didn't feel like it gave the rest of his life the justice it deserved. You know, someone was critical online yesterday, "How can they only spend one minute on his time in Korea?" You know, you have to cherry pick what you emphasize. Plus, that's not what this movie is about.
The one thing, we were talking about this earlier, that we wish we hadn't have done with out was the interview with the executive that played a part in Floyd's forced retirement. He went off-the-record on a phone call with me, where he kind of outlined what happened and I tried to get him on camera and he said he would. But then in a vary passive-aggressive way, he reneged and said he was too busy and then I phoned him the next year to try see if he would come to the table for a few minutes of interview and every time, "Oh, I'm too busy. I can't." And then we said, "Oh we'll come to you – wherever you are in the world. We'll talk for ten minutes." And he always reneged. That would've been a beat in the story that would have been important and it would've added to some of the forced retirement drama. But, you know, we tried – very very hard – to get that Disney perspective on why he was let go. So, what we tried to do in the version that exists is let people kind of gauge for themselves why he was force retired. Was it his age? Was it that he was a pain in the ass, or a "troublemaker" – even to the point where they were looking to get him out? So, we don't try to make a statement. We try just to show, "Here's what the man is like, here's his temperament – now, it's up to you to determine why he was force-retired."
DJF: I kind of like that approach to the film. I wanted to ask how you guys approached directed this together, how do you guys handle directing duties?
MF: The way it worked out is, with questions – Erik would always start out with questions and he would send me his list. I then I would come at it like 'Okay, what if we add this and what if we chopped this?" Because I was taking on the editorial. I was editorializing, whether we were prepping a shoot or if we were on the shoot. And then, when we'd get on set, Erik would more times than not be the interviewer and I'd be shooting. A couple of occasions we would go out with a second cameraman, but for the most part I'd just shoot. So, it was a very shared kind of role – in a sense that, you know, we were trading on different forms of director duties. I was the director of photography for the animation, while – it was like a stew – and we worked really well together, so we were like, "Let's just jump in the pot and make a flavored stew."
ES: It worked really well with the interviews because there were so many amazing stories and it helped that we had such a small crew. It just made it a lot more intimate. So, they were able to open up a lot more and give us a lot more and it just streamlined everything. So, it was very smooth.
MF: One of the things I love about working with Erik is that he – I was always mesmerized by this – we would have a list of 30 questions, let's just say on average – he would memorize every one of them and he wouldn't have a piece of paper on his lap. And I would say to any documentary filmmaker out there – that is huge. The key to getting someone to connect, not only with the interviewer, but also with the audience by way of the camera, is to make them feel comfortable. And so Erik always treated it like a dialogue and he always allowed them to talk, even if it didn't go to a place we needed. He never stepped on them. He allowed them to continue their train of thought and I think too many people step on the toes of the interviewee. So, it was funny, because there were a couple shoots where Erik was in New York and I was on business in L.A. and I was kind of forced into doing an interview and I learned from him. I didn't use a piece of paper. I was just like, "Oh, that's the best way to do it." So, I probably forgot more questions than he would have, but that aesthetic of not looking down at a piece of paper, I found to be a huge reason why all the people feel so real and not feeling like they're performing.
DJF: It's almost like the directors or the interviewers should know their lines, instead of, like you said, looking down at a piece of paper.
MF: (both laugh) That's right! It should just be a natural conversation.
ES: I would hope it would just be an open dialogue.
DJF: Right. You know what you're going to talk about and you just go with it.
MF: Exactly. And the thing that's key is, you do need to go in there knowing the beats you want to hit and that's where the memorization is so helpful, because I would sit behind the camera and I would have a list that I would be checking off and not the rare occasion I would tap him and go, "hey, we have two more minutes, let's get this question in next, " but again, that aesthetic of not reading from paper – it's the best way to do it.
DJF: Excellent. Well, I'll be posting my review very soon. I really enjoyed the movie and I'm looking forward to promoting it.
MF: Sorry we were a bit late, but we really appreciate the time you took.
DJF: No problem. You guys have a great day. Thank you.
ES: Thank you.
MF: You too. Goodbye.

Gorgeous animation that makes up in adorability what it lacks in originality
As adorable as the fluffy creature at its heart, Abominable delivers everything you could want in a piece of family entertainment. It's enjoyable, smartly paced, and the animation is gorgeous. So what if it's not that original?
A Chinese-American co-production from Jill Culton (Open Season) and co-director Todd Wilderman, Abominable is, as you've probably guessed, the story of a yeti. This cute, blue-eyed monster is hiding out on the roof of a Shanghai apartment building after fleeing a laboratory, and it's there he is discovered by teenager Yi (voiced by Chloe Bennet from TV's Agents of SHIELD).
Realising he needs to be returned to his Himalayan home, Yi and her friends Jin (Tenzing Norgay Trainor) and Peng (Albert Tsai) decide to help their fuzzy new friend – nicknamed Everest – on his journey. Peril comes in the shape of a wealthy businessman (Eddie Izzard) and zoologist (Sarah Paulson), who are in hot pursuit, trying to claim the creature for themselves.
The narrative shares similarities with a host of other kids' movies (including Smallfoot and the How to Train Your Dragon series), and Everest's big, sad eyes (his only means of communication apart from some mournful grunts and infectious laughter) make him resemble a furrier Toothless.
But the film benefits from its beautiful Far Eastern animated landscapes, locations that look simply luscious on the big screen, while stunning set-pieces include an icy Himalayan bridge sequence (which nods to the Indiana Jones movies) and an entertaining escape from giant blueberries.
Peng (the sweet, younger boy) and Jin (his selfie and sneaker-obsessed older cousin) are there for comic relief, but the more detailed characterisation for Yi, who is grieving her late father, gives the film added heart. And while grown-ups may roll their eyes at the inclusion of Coldplay's morose 'Fix You', they and, more importantly, their kids, will fall for cuddly Everest and be more than happy to accompany him on his fun and frosty adventure.
General release from Fri 11 Oct.

Cast: Chloe Bennet, Albert Tsai, Tenzing Norgay Trainor, Eddie Izzard, Sarah Paulson, Tsai Chin, Michelle Wong

A cute, blue-eyed Yeti is found hiding on the roof of a Shanghai apartment building, and teenager Yi (voiced by Bennett) and her friends Jin (Trainor) and Peng (Tsai) decide to help him get back to the Himalayas. Enjoyable, smartly paced and gorgeously animated; hardly very original, but full of comic relief and heart.

Q: Looping over update statement gets progressively slower with SQL Server Overview
I'm converting a UnitsOrdered column from an int to a floating point. My strategy was to create a new column with the new datatype, and populate it with the old column's data. This will be performed on a table with hundreds of millions of records. To keep the transaction smaller, I was hoping to chunk the process, looping over some fixed number of rows.
Issue
The issue I've found is that the update get progressively slower by a lot. I was hoping that there was a simple explanation (and consequently a fix). My hunch would be that updating rows 1-5 would be the same speed as 6-10 which would be the same as 1000001-1000005, but that doesn't appear to be the case.
Things I've tried:

*

*increasing log size (e.g. to 25GB)

*changing option(recompile) and with(tablock)

*rebuilding stats at first, and during (e.g. every 10 million records)

*Using a cte, not using a cte, inserting between ranges, etc.

*changing the number of records updated at once

Notes

*

*There are no indexes on UnitsOrdered

*There is a clustered primary key on OrderItemID

*Happy to provide any more information.  The schema of the table is super vanilla (by design)...it's roughly:
Create table dbo.OrderItems
(
     OrderItemID int primary key identity,
     UnitsOrdered int NOT NULL,
     UnitsOrdered1 real NOT NULL
)

SQL:
print 'Populating column data...';
GO
set nocount on;
declare
    @totalRows int = 0,
    @affectedRows int = 0,
    @rowsFetched int = 1000000,
    @rowsProcessed int = 0,
    @statusMessage nvarchar(100),
    @time datetime,
    @refreshEvery int = 10000000

select @totalRows = Count(*)
from dbo.OrderItems

while(1 = 1) begin

    set @time = getUtcDate();

    ;with cte as(
        select *
        from dbo.OrderItems with(tablock)
        order by
            OrderItemID

        offset @rowsProcessed ROWS
        fetch next @rowsFetched ROWS ONLY
    )

    update cte
    set
        UnitsOrdered1 = UnitsOrdered
        option(RECOMPILE)

    set @affectedRows = @@ROWCOUNT;

    if(@affectedRows = 0) begin
        break;
    end

    --increment processed rows
    set @rowsProcessed = @rowsProcessed + @affectedRows;

    --set status message (%% is escaped)
    set @statusMessage = Concat(    '->',
                                    @affectedRows,
                                    ' rows updated in ',
                                    datediff(s,@time,getUtcDate()),
                                    ' seconds. ',
                                    (Cast(@rowsProcessed as float) / Cast(NULLIF(@totalRows,0) as float))*100,
                                    '%% complete...');

    --we use raiseerror so we can output the message instead of buffering it.
    raiserror(@statusMessage,0,1) with nowait

end
GO

Thanks SO!

A: The progressive slowness is expected.  This is an inherent problem with any row-number pagination technique.  You will likely get better and more consistent performance with batch updates by updating by range of OrderItemID values so that an index in the column can be used to efficiently locate and touch only those rows that need to be updated.

Do you want to increase your search ranking? Sure you do. Pretty much everyone does. Well, this is where inbound links come in handy.
Then I ask them how they think we should handle the link-building process.
I hesitate to include this one, but the truth is that it still works. However, sending an email to a blogger asking to exchange links is not very reliable. It's just cheap and fake and fluff. As a rule, Shout Out Studio tries real hard to avoid this type of marketing.
But if I'm trying to help someone, I've got to share. Now let's move on.
Create content that uses foundational information and vocabulary for the industry you want to target.
This post is an example: We wanted to create a list of all the recommended ways to handle business link-building.
That will be foundational content that will engage a broad audience. Content like this is both relevant and worth sharing.
Other examples of similar foundational content would be "Link-Building 101″ or "The Definition of Link-Building".
Executing a digital contest might not sound like a ton of fun, but it can absolutely transform online business if done right.
Your contest should involve a big payoff for participants and ask participants to create content across the web. This way, you're going to end up with an increase in inbound links.
There are several agencies out there who specialize in building massive amounts of links for their clients. Most of these folks are submitting links to Squidoo lens and other sites they keep up with.
Beware of anyone who does this for far too little money.
Manually building these links takes time and if you're paying $5, you're probably getting bad service.
There is a load of directories across the web. Use these as places to list your website and give a business description. DMoz.org is the first step as several sites use the Dmoz directory to populate their own directories.
Directory submissions can cost money, but it can be VERY VERY worth it.
I've worked with businesses who hesitated to pay to be included in a directory. Well, it was – in fact – links from those paid directories that drove new business to their site.
"Ego Bait" is a phrase used to describe the method of enticing engagement with rewards that play to the target's ego.
Lastly, contact each blog alerting them to their inclusion on the list and share the badge with them. Most bloggers love showing these on their sidebar or "about" page.
Getting yourself some larger press coverage can produce a load of potential inbound links. Getting yourself mentioned on an industry website or even within the newspaper can build links back to your site.
Many bloggers love to have others help them create content. Find relevant blogs and see if they'll allow you to guest post. Have two or three articles ready to go when you approach the blog.
Ensure that your proposed content fits will be relevant to their audience.
Almost 100% of guest blog posts include links pointed to the author's website.
There are many places for you to syndicate your blog content across other channels. Folks in the SEO community often disagree on the effectiveness of syndicating articles. Google penalizes for duplicate content across the web but rewards inbound links.
Shout Out Studio doesn't recommend this method to our clients, but I know folks that have used it very successfully.
If you're looking for places to syndicate your RSS feed, the Social Media Today Community is a great place to start.
It can put information about your business in the hands of journalists who can distribute the content all over the web.
These articles can include links back to your site. Thus, you could earn thousands of inbound links if these online press releases get distributed well.
It's similar to guest posting. However, it focuses on reaching out to some of the top industry blogs and submitting an interesting/timely article. That will enable you to receive an inbound link.
Links that get in front of your targeted audience are great for search, but the referral traffic is even better.
Grab links from your local Chamber of Commerce, the Better Business Bureau, and the local library. They are considered trustworthy by the local community and your site can benefit from getting exposure on them.
Develop business relationships with non-competing businesses in the same field.
You can use these relationships online and offline. For instance, you can share links and distribute each other's business cards.
Manufacturers, vendors or retailers associated with your business may be willing to link to you from their website. That's especially true if you write a review or conduct an interview with them.
Sites like Yahoo! Answers, Quora & Google Groups allow you to respond to questions. That gives you an opportunity to provide relevant links back to your site within your answer.
Link building agencies often just add links to your website from pages they curate on Squidoo. Well, did you know it only takes 15 minutes to set up a topical Squidoo page?
Be sure to include expert information and popular, useful tools for your field. Also, don't forget to link back to your website.
Folks are often searching for useful online tools. Whether it's SEO tools, mortgage calculators or Body Fat Calculators, these are valuable for them. Plus, they often love to share with their audience.
So, start building an information-rich list of tools relevant for your audience. That can earn you some really powerful inbound links.
Write a thorough review of an iPhone app, relevant service or a product. Companies are always looking for case studies and testimonials.
After writing your review on your site, be sure to contact the provider to let them know about the review. Also, give them permission to share the content however they want to.
I've worked with several companies that have created thousands of links to their site by giving away free samples.
These companies had their giveaways picked-up on "freebie" and "couponing" websites. For hundreds of dollars, these sites received thousands of dollars worth of inbound links.
Search engines are relying heavily on social networks to verify and give authority to their rankings.
If you have profiles filled out on relevant websites, you're letting search engines know you're legitimate. Also, most profiles allow you to link back to your site.
Creating great content is critical. Making sure it's share-worthy should be at the forefront of your mind when scheming new ideas for images, blog posts & videos.
The next thing you should do is communicate clearly that you're OK with folks sharing/using your content & images. However, specify that they need to attribute the content with a link back to you.
If you start with this list and work through even a few of these steps, I'm sure you'll be amazed at the difference in the referral traffic and search engine traffic you receive.

Rory and Eoin also known as Drenge play with raw enthusiasm and velocity, enough no holds barred energy and contagiousness that their music never becomes anything less than wholly and compulsively thrilling.
Their sound can be described as most exhilarating chapters of punk rock whittled down to its leanest, meanest, no-frills essence; 12 razor sharp tracks. Songs like "Face Like a Skull" and "Nothing" speed by recklessly in a dizzying blur of white heat and seething riffs, while others, like raucous fan favourites "People in Love Make Me Feel Yuck" and "Dogmeat" come across as relentless shots of adrenalin straight to the cerebral cortex, so anthemic, rapturous and stuffed full of ringing guitar chords and deadpan lyricism are they.


The turbulence is rough and I cannot concentrate on my work while I am swinging about in thin air. I am listening to my go-to flight music, Leonard Cohen "Everybody Knows," I often feel as if this were my theme song. Due to my lack of ability to concentrate at my task at hand, I decide to write this blog post. Should the plane come down, perhaps this will be the last thing what people read of mine, but maybe not.
I was going over my video clippings from SXSW, one week later, it is all just a blur at this point. I vaguely recall being at SXSW and the videos of darkness do not help me decipher what exactly happened. I did enjoy myself and I made a handful of great connections.
The day I was leaving Austin for Houston, I received a text from an ex asking me about the convention and letting me know that he was proud of me. He went on to ask me how I looked during the convention– typical. Loosen your grip on the past - sings Leonard Cohen .
Carla Bruni, A feminist if you ask me.
I have a cover song on my playlist, Carla Bruni covers Leonard Cohen "In My Secret Life" and my mind wanders....I think more about Carla Bruni.
How can I think Carla Bruni is a feminist? Well, she does what only men can do, only she does it better. To me, that is feminism. I wanted to write a blog post about Carla Bruni for a long time but I feared others would frown upon it. Tonight, when this song came on, I knew it was kismet. I knew I should write my true feelings for Carla Bruni.
Who is Carla Bruni? She is a former model, a musician (Quelqu'un m'a dit ) and the wife of the President of France, Nicolas Sarkozy, that is maybe how you know her best. Carla Bruni is also the illegitimate daughter of a millionaire mother who was having an affair with her billionaire father. She was born in Italy and raised in France. She dated both Mick Jagger and Eric Clapton, and to me, she is a bit of a hero.
Carla Bruni is fairly famous for having an affair with Raphael Enthoven (while allegedly living with his father) and bore an illegitimate son to Raphael (whom she wrote a song about called Rapha?l ). His wife at the time, Justine Levy, did not take too kindly to this mishap, she wrote a book called "Rien De Grave about the incident. Translated to English, it means - "Nothing Serious." Pretty serious, but I think she was being cheeky.
Probably my favorite part about Carla Bruni is, before she married the President of France, she dated the Prime Minister of France. Explain to me if you will, what woman gets to do this? Only men have a license to behave this way, men are consistently forgiven while women are condemned - but not Carla Bruni. For that reason, God bless Carla Bruni.
So why was I in Houston? My close friend Jen's father passed away last week and instead of coming home from Austin, I hopped on a Greyhound and made my way to Houston for a few days to be with Jen and her family.
A quick sidetrack - The bus ride from Austin to Houston. I have never been on a bus in the United States, in Europe or Turkey, yes, they are more common, but in the U.S. never. My ONLY goal for this bus trip was to not sit next to someone who smelled like urine. That's all I asked, I just wanted a urine-free trip. Success was mine!
I boarded the bus and there were several open rows. As my eyes panned the seats, a voice in my head said, "Always pick who you sit next to, don't let them pick you." I backpacked through Europe (alone) in the 90s and I read this valuable tip in a book geared for women traveling alone. So I did not take an open row, instead, I paused for one second and picked a seat with the boy with long hair that looked like Chris Robinson from The Black Crowes . Turned out he was a tattoo artists... with no tattoos of his own.
My three hour bus ride with the formerly homeless, young, tattoo artist was very pleasant. He was not annoyed with my stories, and what was better, he had plenty of his own stories to share. Stories about fighting and getting shot at by other homeless people, girl troubles, tattoos, making TV shows about being a tattoo artist, etc. I didn't believe all of his stories, he probably embellishes for effect, but who doesn't? His stories suited me just fine because he kept me plenty entertained on an otherwise dreadful trip.
Urine-free bus ride, perhaps, but not filth free.


American Horror Story Fan: Are Leo and Teresa Dead or Alive?
Are Leo and Teresa Dead or Alive?
"who says they're dead? I'm not saying they're dead. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised. The 2012 connection is really related to something and someone in 1964 Briarcliff, and you find out that in upcoming episodes for sure."
So what do you think? Do you think Leo and Teresa are still alive? Could they survive so much? Or could they possibly be playing some kind of trick? I still think Leo might be presenting his fiancée with the gift, like I said in the episode two recap. Looking forward to hearing your theories on this... Tell us what you think in the comments area.

Thompson, His Life and Locomotives (Hardback)
Transport Photographic Books Colour Books Trains and Railways
By Tim Hillier-Graves
Imprint: Pen & Sword Transport
Illustrations: 250 colour & black and white illustrations & locomotive weight diagrams
You'll be £28.00 closer to your next £10.00 credit when you purchase Thompson, His Life and Locomotives. What's this?
Edward Thompson was the London & North Eastern Railways second Chief Mechanical Engineer, following the death of Sir Nigel Gresley in 1941.
He was in office from 1941-1946, when he retired, after a long career as a mechanical engineer, working for several railway companies, including the North Eastern, Great Northern and after the grouping the London & North Eastern Railway.
He was a very controversial figure, often maligned by railway historians for his reconstruction of several classes of steam locomotive, including the Gresley prototype pacific Great Northern, which many people still feel was unnecessary.
However there is more to Edward Thompson than his period as Chief Mechanical Engineer of the London & North Eastern Railway, in that he had a complex side to him, which might have originated from his experiences in the First World War, during which he served with distinction in France.
This book for the first time, sets out to explain both the man and his philosophy, looking at the complex reasoning behind the way he came to his decisions over locomotive design and why he decided to reconstruct a number of Sir Nigel Gresley's locomotives.
