In this lesson we'll take a look at running migrations via drush rather than via the Migrate module's UI. We'll take a look at the commands provided by the Migrate module and talk about what they do. Then we'll practice running, rolling back, and otherwise interacting with migrations via drush commands. Throughout the lesson we'll learn about some of the functionality you get from running migrations via drush that are not provided by the UI, like the ability to specify a single record to migrate with the --idlist flag. Finally we'll learn about why in most cases drush is a better tool for running large data migrations because of the limitations imposed on the UI. Pay close attention to this lesson since throughout the remainder of this series we'll be running all of our migrations via drush.

Over the years we've developed some techniques for practicing that we wanted to share. At Drupalize.Me we take hugging seriously. In this tutorial we'll look at the art, and science, of giving a good hug. The Merriam Webster dictionary defines the word hug as; squeeze (someone) tightly in one's arms, typically to express affection.
Did you know there are all kinds of different hugs that you can give? In this tutorial we'll look at:
- Defining what a hug is
- Some of the many types of hugs in the world today
- Precautions you may want to familiarize yourself with before hugging
- And the importance of proper technique
Lets go ahead and get started shall we?
