Written by Jimmy Lewis, ''Bill'' has caused a sensation on black radio where gay issues are rarely discussed, much less referred to in song. |
''Bill'' is one of 10 cuts on Help Yourself, released by New Orleans' Mardi Gras Records in October. The album has sold 120,000 copies for the tiny blues, Cajun and zydeco label - ''by far, the biggest record our label has ever made,'' said Mardi Gras spokesman Jerry Embree. |
''Bill'' is No. 58 on Billboard's R&B singles chart. |

It’s sad… so sad… it’s a sad, sad situation |
That's the ticket.So here’s what may well be the saddest story in the history of rock and roll. (Well, OK, not like that time when the plane went down with Buddy Holly, Richie Valens, and the Big Bopper, but you know…) |
When I heard that Paul McCartney was going to play here in Sacramento at Arco Arena, I thought, “Well, I missed the big tour ten years ago and I was just too cheap and lazy to fly to L.A., but this guy could up and die on me, and then I’d die without ever seeing a Beatle!” |
So, I hear that Sir Paul’s coming in November, but I hear this in, like, February, and the tickets go on sale at the end of April. Naturally, I forget to be there at midnight on whatever night that was, but I see a news article the next day that they were selling tickets, so I go online and pay double the face value fo... |
Fast forward six months. The Lady Janet and I had moved into our new house on November 10th, and the concert was on the 16th. |
So I come home and The Lady Janet says, “You’ve got the tickets, right?” and I say, “You’re kidding, right?” and that was officially the end of the world as we know it. See, the tickets were eventually found in a box in Emily’s toy closet, but the night of the concert we tore the whole house apart (with help from my pa... |
So, bottom line, we saw Paul, and HE ROCKED!, but we had lousy seats and it sounded terrible, and we were so bummed about losing our really good tickets that we cried. |
Now, having said that, did I mention that HE ROCKED! — I’m telling you, that old boy never took a break, he never took a drink, he just switched back and forth between piano and guitar, he was kind to other Beatles past and present, and performed his arse off for over 3 hours. |
I’d recommend seeing him any time you get the chance, and after all, it’s only $50! |

BatchToSpace for 4-D tensors of type T. |
This is a legacy version of the more general BatchToSpaceND. |
Rearranges (permutes) data from batch into blocks of spatial data, followed by cropping. This is the reverse transformation of SpaceToBatch. More specifically, this op outputs a copy of the input tensor where values from the batch dimension are moved in spatial blocks to the height and width dimensions, followed by cro... |
• input: A Tensor. 4-D tensor with shape [batch*block_size*block_size, height_pad/block_size, width_pad/block_size, depth]. Note that the batch size of the input tensor must be divisible by block_size * block_size. |
• crops: A Tensor. Must be one of the following types: int32, int64. 2-D tensor of non-negative integers with shape [2, 2]. It specifies how many elements to crop from the intermediate result across the spatial dimensions as follows: |
crops = [[crop_top, crop_bottom], [crop_left, crop_right]] |
• block_size: An int that is >= 2. |
• name: A name for the operation (optional). |
A Tensor. Has the same type as input. |
EDB File Extension - What is it and how to open EDB format |
Opening EDB files |
Have a problem opening a .EDB file? We collect information about file formats and can explain what EDB files are. Additionally we recommend software suitable for opening or converting such files. |
What is the .EDB file type? |
The primary association of the .edb extension belongs to the Extensible Storage Engine (ESE) Database File (EDB) format and file type. ESE, also known as JET Blue, is a proprietary database engine and a search, storage, and indexing technology developed by Microsoft and widely used in many Microsoft products (Active Di... |
An .edb file is an ESE database. ESE is supported in all MS Windows OS'es since Windows 2000 through its API, and the EDB format is employed for various search ("Windows.edb" in "%ProgramData%\Microsoft\Search\Data\Applications\Windows") and system update ("DataStore.edb" in "%SystemRoot%\SoftwareDistribution\DataStore... |
As ESE is also the core storage engine in MS Exchange, .edb files are used here as mailbox database storages (commonly, the "Priv1.edb" and "Pub1.edb" files) maintained on the MS Exchange Server. Besides MS Exchange, there are multiple tools, free and commercial, that allow to access MS Exchange EDB databases, repair f... |
Alternatively, the same .edb extension also happens to be associated with the EViews Database File (EDB) file format and type. EDB is a proprietary file format developed by Quantitative Micro Software (QMS)—now, IHS, Inc.—for EViews, an advanced statistics and econometrics tool. EViews natively uses the EDB format to s... |
Software to open or convert EDB files |
You can open EDB files with the following programs: |
EViews by IHS Global Inc. |
PlayerLiteHJ by AVTECH |
ETABS by Computers and Structures, Inc. |

How to Become a Successful CISO or CSO |
Success Coaching |
CISOs and CSOs need to possess a mix of appropriate education, certifications, experience and technical subject matter expertise. The needs of each individual company will dictate what experience, credentials and technical skills a CISO / CSO candidate needs to bring to the table. |
Often Overlooked |
A set of skills that companies often overlook when hiring a CISO / CSO candidate include relationship building skills. These are the skills that will empower a CISO or CSO to attract talent and to retain talent. As a strengths coach andan emotional intelligence coach, I’m privileged to see exactly and precisely how my... |
How a person is wired on the inside determines how they perform on the outside. |
Somewhat Rare |
Finding CISO or CSO professionals who possess relationship building strength themes in their top 5 strength themes or even their top 10 strength themes is somewhat rare. These particular strength themes are the themes that equip a person to build relationships, to grow relationships and to know how to work effectively... |
I’m far more likely to see strategic thinking strength themes in CISO and CSO coaching clients. While strategic thinking strengths are necessary for security professionals, CISOs and CSOs need a greater balance of strengths than just strategic thinking themes. |
The Full Package |
In order to influence, persuade, negotiate and to collaborate with peers and customers, CISOs and CSOs need to be equipped with a balance of relationship building, influencing, executing and strategic thinking strength themes. These leadership professionals need to understand what they have to work with and they need ... |
The Right Mix |
CISOs and CSOs who build the most effective security programs, the best security teams and who generate the best results for the businesses that employ them are those who also have well-balanced emotional intelligence. These people know themselves well and they have an advanced understanding of how they are perceived ... |
A person’s unique mix of strength themes are like their DNA. We all have unique DNA but we can’t change what we have. Emotional Intelligence skills on the other hand are flexible and can be adjusted and improved upon over time. |
What to Do |
If you don’t know already, find out what your unique strength themes are so you know for sure what you have to work with and what you have within you to leverage. |
If you’re ready to take your career to the next level, learn about your unique emotional intelligence. Your emotional intelligence (EI) or emotional quotient (EQ) as it is sometimes called can be measured and improved through coaching if in fact it needs work. |

• They actually mean wallet (this is because the form factor of the Arduboy matching the credit card size). |
• Recoge” vs “Recolecta” (what I mean is I do not think “recoge” is more suitable than “recolecta” for neutral spanish) |
(Jordi Bayó) #23 |
Erwin, use your prefered the words. |

Perhaps ES-LA and ES-ES should have different versions? |
(Though I don’t think ES-LA is technically an ISO code. Microsoft uses ES-XL though. Not that any of that’s really relevant…) |
I know people here in Britain like EN-UK and get annoyed with adverts that use EN-US spellings (even the younger ones), so I can understand there might be preferences and perhaps even dislike for alternative language versions. |
That said, it depends if supporting two variations of Spanish would be viable for Arduboy Inc, they might not have time. Personally I think two versions might be better if it keeps everyone happy and prevents confusion, if there’s the time to make them both. |

Ok wow more languages than I expected! It’s so amazing to have so many different people and cultures from around the world participating in making and enjoying 8-bit games together! |
Thank you all for your help in translating! |
The translations are live on the kickstarter video so let me know how they look! |
In the next update I’ll be sure to make a shout out to each of you! Thanks again! |
classic for german would’ve better be |
klassische, meaning classic or traditional… |
classic…there IS a word spelled this way, but I think it is not used that often. |
Actually if a german is looking at this then he will have no idea what is Zelda: Link Awakening |
The rest looks quite good… |
(Pharap) #29 |
As far as I’m aware @Botisaurus is actually Austrian, so his German ought to be pretty good (i.e. native-level). |
(Natürlich, mein Deutsch ist nicht so güt, weil ich bin Englisch.) |
(Or is it ‘weil bin ich Englisch’? I know there’s some rule with ‘weil’ involving moving something to the end, but I can’t remember because it’s been so long.) |
