		<title>Panera Wants My Phone Number</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Like so many other businesses, the coffee/pastry chain Panera Bread has launched a rewards card program.  I was given the card a week or so ago and was told I needed to register it online.  When I went to the &#8230; <a href="http://www.epstudiossoftware.com/blog/?p=457">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<title>Polytonality in Rachmaninoff</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In previous posts I have argued that Rachmaninoff, the self-proclaimed musical conservative, was not only influenced by his more forward-looking contemporaries, but actually incorporated some of their modern harmonic devices in his music.  Polytonality is the use of two different &#8230; <a href="http://www.epstudiossoftware.com/blog/?p=433">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<title>Harmonic Dissonance in Rachmaninoff&#8217;s Piano Concerto #2</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My previous blog entry on Rachmaninoff&#8217;s concertos may have raised some skepticism amongst those who consider the composer to be, whatever his other merits, a conservative in his musical language. Rachmaninoff himself helped foster this notion with quotes like “I &#8230; <a href="http://www.epstudiossoftware.com/blog/?p=428">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<title>Blogging Project: Analyzing Rachmaninoff&#8217;s Piano Concertos</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My blog is littered with uncompleted, overly-ambitious projects. Here is yet another one.  Since I became musically conscious sometime during my childhood, I have been fond of Sergei Rachmaninoff&#8217;s music, in particular his piano concertos. I remember tape recording these &#8230; <a href="http://www.epstudiossoftware.com/blog/?p=419">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<title>Rachmaninoff &#8220;Piano Concerto No. 5&#8243;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I was certainly surprised to find on YouTube links to videos of a fifth piano concerto by Sergei Rachmaninoff.  I quickly discovered (after listening for a few seconds) that this was an arrangement of Rachmaninoff&#8217;s Second Symphony for piano and &#8230; <a href="http://www.epstudiossoftware.com/blog/?p=416">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<title>Fax Machines Are Stupid</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It came to me today as a sudden revelation (an &#8220;ah-ha&#8221; moment) that our fax machine is a total anachronism, like something out of the 19th century.  Here it is the 21st century, and we are still sending back and &#8230; <a href="http://www.epstudiossoftware.com/blog/?p=408">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<title>Blogging From My Droid</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Yes it&#8217;s possible to write a blog post on an Android phone using WordPress for Android.  Why anyone would want to write a post on the Droid&#8217;s clunky keyboard is an excellent question.  I suppose if there is something you &#8230; <a href="http://www.epstudiossoftware.com/blog/?p=396">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<title>Emacs Word Wrap Modes</title>

I have been using auto-fill-mode in Emacs to avoid lines extending off the screen. Auto-fill-mode works by inserting newline characters (ASCII 0A, C-j) at the &#8230; <a href="http://www.epstudiossoftware.com/blog/?p=374">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<title>The C++ Way.  Part 0.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve decided to write a series of posts on what I call &#8220;The C++ Way&#8221; analogous to &#8220;The Ruby Way,&#8221; a book and philosophy of the Ruby Language. After programming in C++ for years, I still struggle to think in &#8230; <a href="http://www.epstudiossoftware.com/blog/?p=367">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>
