Pride and Prejudice Marriage Quotes
How we cite our quotes: (Chapter.Paragraph)
Quote #13
But she had never felt so strongly as now the disadvantages which must attend the children of so unsuitable marriage, nor ever been so fully aware of the evils arising from so ill-judged a direction of talents; talents, which, rightly used, might at least have preserved the respectability of his daughters, even if incapable of enlarging the mind of his wife. (42.3)
Bad marriages aren't just bad news for the spouses—they can destroy the kids' lives, too. And in the case of Darcy, the stakes are even higher. He doesn't just rule over a family of five daughters; he's the landlord of a huge estate. If he makes a bad marriage, he could ruin the lives of all his tenants. See? We told you this was serious stuff.

New Orleans Saints fans are mostly pleased with the 16-14 Black & Gold victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. But one sore spot sticks out.
The running game has fans in a dither. They're urging Saints coach Sean Payton to pick a primary running back and fully incorporate him into the offense.
Read what some fans had to say about the performance of the Saints ground game against the Bucs.
Share your insights in the comment stream below.
Dr. A.J.
I think Peyton needs to re-evaluate his belief in the running back by committee philosophy that is taking over the NFL. By bringing in rbs in certain situations, it gives the opposing team an idea of what we might do. Keep a primary back and allow him to get his motor going and one that is versatile with both the run and pass. Does this remind us of anyone in particular?
I must say I agree here Jimb0, the play calling, the run blocking and Ingram's lack of production was just hideous. I'd like to see what Khiry Robinson can do with Ingram's assignments.
But does anyone believe that calling a run to the outside at the goal line would have been successful had it been Sproles, PT, or KRob? when you've got 11 defensive players lined up two yards away ready to kill the man with the ball? That was insane. Is Payton setting Ingram up to look bad in order to be able to justify benching him? (serious question)
I think Payton finally saw today that he has to make the Ingram decision. The defense played a great game especially considering the injuries. The Buc's defense is f-ing good. They owned Brees for the most part. Luckily, they are idiots. Also, what the hell is up with all the rain delays? Is this new? I don't remember ever seeing this many rain delays. Who Dat!!!
Robert Reiley
I think Ingram is too much of a traditional back for this offense. He needs a steady diet of footballs, and two or three yard gains until he breaks a 10 yarder here, a 10 yarder there, squirts through for five or six there, another two yarder before he breaks a 20 yarder. I think that's the kind of back he is. A back like him can't thrive off of, one play then yanked, one play then yanked.
Payton has never had the patience for that kind of running game. But that's what Ingram is. I don't blame him. I blame a system that just isn't made for a back like him. We should trade him for an offensive lineman to a team that wants a traditional back.
at some point, they are going to have to admit that Ingram is a bust.

Yesterday, D.C. Mayor Vincent C. Gray announced that the city will award $2.35 million in grants to four city agencies for local sustainability projects.
The agencies will receive the money under a grant competition called Sustainable DC Innovation Challenge.
Now, in its second year, the competition encourages D.C. agencies to create innovative sustainability initiatives.
In yesterday's press release, Mayor Gray said the 2014 winning sustainability ideas, "can help educate the next generation, increase access to healthy foods, expand job training and business opportunities, and ensure protection of our natural resources."
A number of this year's initiatives will promote both sustainability and job training.
For example, the city awarded the University of the District of Columbia money to establish and operate fish-breeding demonstration projects in Wards 3, 5, and 7. These demonstration projects will use aquaponic, which combine fish and plant production, systems. The school hopes the projects will serve as a base for job-skills and entrepreneurship training for low-skilled people.
University of the District of Columbia also received grant money to establish a business-incubator kitchen in Ward 8 for food and nutrition education, and job-skills and entrepreneurship training.
In 2013, the city awarded $4.5 million to eight city agencies for 12 sustainability projects in the first year of the grant competition.
The challenge-grant program seeks to stimulate innovative ideas that can be repeated in future years, Dan Guilbeault, a policy analyst with the D.C. Department of the Environment, reportedly said in a November 21, 2013 article.
The grant competition is part of the city's Sustainable DC initiative, launched in July 2011. The city's sustainability initiative includes an April 2012 vision statement and a February 2013 sustainability plan, as well as legislation enacted by the city in 2013 and additional legislation pending before the city council.

Smith College, Samuel A. Masinter, Associated Press
The letter recommending Christianne Beasley for admission to Smith College didn't come from the most unbiased of sources. But there was no disputing the writer knew this applicant as well as anyone.
"Christianne and Smith seem to be a perfect match," wrote Nancy Beasley, four years ago, on behalf of her only daughter, now a Smith senior. She described Christianne's "grace and dignity," and explained why she thought the prestigious and diverse Northampton, Mass., women's college was the perfect fit for the girl she'd raised.
Smith is among just a few colleges — among them nearby Mt. Holyoke and Holy Cross in Massachusetts, St. Anselm in New Hampshire, and the University of Richmond — that invite parents to submit letters on behalf of their children (either as part of the application itself, or in a follow-up invitation after the application is received). At Smith, finalizing this month the 640 or so members of the Class of 2016 from more than 4,300 applications, a little less than half include a parental letter. The college takes pains to emphasize such letters are optional and won't make or break a decision.
What do parents tell colleges about their flesh and blood? Rarely anything bad, to be sure (though sadly, it does happen). A fair share burst with predictably over-the-top pride in their children's virtues, which are dated back to infancy, and in some cases, utero (a few years ago, Smith decided to impose a single-page limit).
But there's a reason Smith has stuck with the process for about 20 years now, despite the extra work, says Smith's director of admission, Deb Shaver. Sometimes parents offer just the kind of color that can bring to life a candidate whose full personality is hidden in a portrait painted only with grades, test scores and traditional recommendations letters from teachers and guidance counselors.
"You might think they do nothing but brag," Shaver said. "But parents really nail their kids. They really get to the essence of what their daughter is about in a way we can't get anywhere else."
It's also an acknowledgment that in the backlash in admissions against (admittedly epidemic) helicopter parenting, the pendulum might have swung a little too far.
After all, it's parents who may have the best view of what's really great about their children.
"We get to this point and say, 'You can't be driving the bus, you need to be in the backseat,'" Shaver said. "It's all true, and yet I think parents can provide texture to those applications that can't be found anywhere else.
"Who knows a kid better than their mother and father?" she asked.
For Christianne Beasley, a letter from Mom was the perfect closing argument to her case that Smith was the place for her.
"Sometimes there's that bad connotation of the overbearing parents who feel the need to control their kids' decision," she said. "In my case, it was the opposite. It was to make sure I had the best application possible and Smith saw the best part of me."
For her mom, it was a chance to participate, but also share something she knew nobody else would have seen: the way her daughter lit up when she first visited Smith's campus.
"You know how they say when you see your wedding dress or your house, you just knew it's the one? She just knew it was the one," said Nancy Beasley, of Westbrook, Maine. "Nobody else would have known."
David Hawkins, director of public policy at the National Association for College Admission Counseling, said there are reasons why very few colleges solicit parental letters. One is sheer logistical burden; most colleges don't have the staff to do more than execute a fairly straightforward admissions formula of grades and test scores. It's no accident that the practice is found only at small liberal arts colleges which take special pride in getting to know their students.

The goal of the WIA Youth Program is to better prepare young adults, ages 14-21, for education and employment by coordinating funds and services in the community. WIA service providers provide youth services through the Lee County Youth and Family Services and serve youth from both Chatham and Lee County in their respective counties as much as possible.
Eligible youth must reside in Chatham or Lee County, meet income guidelines, be between the ages of 14-21 and have at least one of the following specified barriers to employment or education. Barriers include youth who are a school dropout; have reading and/or math scores below the 9th grade level; homeless, runaway or foster child; offender; pregnant or pregnant or those in need of additional assistance.
The WIA program sponsored by Triangle South (formally Mid-Carolina) Workforce Development Board and provided by Lee County Youth and Family Services seeks to empower the nation's young job seekers through education and employment training and supportive services. By providing youth with a sense of personal and community responsibility, WIA seeks to meet the needs of local businesses by providing work readiness training and on-the job experience to at-risk youth and increase the availability of qualified job seekers in the application pool.
Our slogan is: Be E3: Be Empowered. Be Educated. Be Employable. This states exactly what our program looks to provide to the communities through youth services. Youth engaged in the youth program are not given a hand up but rather offered a hand up. They are afforded an alternative option or route to success through empowerment, education and employability skills.
Please contact a member of the WIA Team for more information:

Anderson Cooper Continues to Be Adorable With His New Glasses
And maybe on Valium.
Kathy Griffin says that it's in her contract that CNN can pull her off stage if she swears during the New Year's Eve special she's hosting with Anderson Cooper. So she's trying to be on her best behavior, or at least she was during the preview clips that she taped with Manderson earlier this week. And yet even she can barely restrain herself when he starts playing goofily with his (oft-maligned) new glasses and admits that he's on a couple of Valium after a back injury. "That is my DREAM COME TRUE," she tells him. "Can you take four on New Year's?"

Preventing delinquencies is better than curing them.
There is no shortage of attorneys and collection companies in Florida working right now to collect the delinquent assessments owed to all types of community associations.
Collection work is a lot like divorce work inasmuch as no one really feels great during or after the process. Just as some divorces are inevitable so too are some delinquencies. People who suffer a change in life circumstances (ie a death, divorce, job loss, or illness) may not be able to pay their association assessments even if they were inclined to do so.
However, what about the other people who have a finite amount of funds and must decide who gets their dollars first? For those people, the equation may really boil down to whether or not they know their board and their neighbors.
If they don't know you, they usually don't pay you. The same is true for attorneys and other professionals who send out invoices. The professionals with the lowest accounts receivable are typically the ones who really get to know their clients. It is much harder to stiff someone you know and like than it is to overlook paying a nameless, faceless corporation or a professional you treats you like a number.
A good safeguard against future delinquencies is making your community a more social place to live. Bring people into the fold starting when they first purchase a home or move in. Get to really know them and you might just be surprised when the association moves up the list of people they want to pay.

The Jamaican bobsled team may just be headed to another Olympics. The hitch is they need a lot of money, and they need it fast. Olympic organizers announced Saturday that Jamaica has qualified for the two-man competition at next month's Sochi Games, though it's unclear if the Jamaican squad will get a chance to race. The prospect of a Jamaican bobsled team has people remembering the 1993 movie "Cool Runnings", that told the story of another Jamaican squad's struggle to compete in the Olympics.
Funding is a serious concern as sled driver Winston Watts told The AP Saturday that he's trying to raise about $80,000 over the next couple of weeks in order to cover travel and equipment costs, according to CBS News on Jan. 19.
Watts said this weekend that they're starting at zero dollars. But he hopes people will rally around himself and brakeman Marvin Dixon to help propel them on to Sochi.
In fact they have, USA Today reports that as of Monday morning, an online campaign on internet fundraising site Crowdtilt.com has raised more than $18,000 for the team's goal to get to Russia.
The crowd funding effort was said to have been started by a random fan who fell in love with the Jamaican's story from "Cool Runnings".
Watts, 46, has considered himself retired from the sport for nearly a decade, has never lost hope though of sliding again on the sport's biggest stage.
Jamaica's first foray into Olympic bobsledding occurred back in 1988 at the Calgary Games, a famed story that inspired the "Cool Runnings" film.
Being an island nation lacking a wintry climate poses special challenges, but that hasn't stopped the small country from faring well on the international bobsled circuit.
Jamaica hasn't had a sled in the Olympics for 12 years. That's since Watts finished 28th at the Salt Lake City Games with Lascelles Brown, who's now a key part of Canada's national team.
The Jamaicans were hoping to compete in the 2010 Vancouver Games, but were stopped in their tracks due to lack of funding.
Watts first hoped to put together a four-man team for Sochi, but soon realized that would be too expensive. So he's now pinning his hopes on his two-man effort.
Sochi officials tweeted Saturday that the Jamaicans were in, but the sport's governing body, the International Bobsleigh & Skeleton Federation, still must confirm how many nations qualified for the Olympic fields.
But Watts is confident his Jamaican team is qualified, saying, "I'm not a person who likes to quit", adding, "I put my heart into it and I know for a fact that people are going to help this team."
Aside from the Crowdtilt site, the Jamaican Bobsleigh Federation set up its own fundraising effort on indiegogo.com, where they've raised nearly $6,500 so far.

Samsung Galaxy S4 Release Date – What We Gathered So Far
The clock is ticking, the days are passing and the Samsung Galaxy S4 is continuously getting ready for its release. Nonetheless, thanks to the inevitable flow of time, the actual launch of the handset is getting closer and closer despite the fact that neither the device itself nor its future buyers do (or can do) anything regarding the matter. Time flows, S4 enthusiasts are readying their wallets and the handset itself is sitting "there" in the near future, waiting for us to catch up with it and pick it up from the shelves.
So, what's there to do in the meantime while the minutes are flying by? Well, how about rounding up what we know so far regarding the handset's release date?
Samsung Galaxy S4 Release Date Roundup
Last time we've discussed the release of Samsung's latest flagship we've reported that the gadget will allegedly benefit from its own live event in India, on April 25. Two days after that the handset will go on sale on the Indian market (that's April 27th). Let's hope the aforementioned rumors will be right on the money.
Nevertheless, the Galaxy S4 is expected to hit the shelves in 155 countries and although we can't keep an eye on all of them we can at least discuss a bit more about Galaxy S4's release in US, UK and Canada.
In UK, myriad of carriers have shown their interest in offering the handset on their networks, and apparently, most of them (if not all) are expected to start selling the device on April 26th.
That takes care of the good ol' United Kingdom, so what about Canada and US? Well, T-Mobile has announced that its customers will be able to purchase the S4 from Magenta's stores starting with May 1st, while the rest of the carriers have remained quiet.
Well, Sprint has put up a pre-registration page and AT&T has announced that the device will be available for pre-order on April 16th, but no exact launch date has been revealed. Verizon on the other hand has failed to acknowledge the gadget's existence altogether, despite the fact that it's already been spotted at the FCC.
As for Canada, once again, a handful of retailers and carriers have announced the S4 and started their pre-registration campaigns, but no exact release date is set in stone. If we're to believe the rumors though, Samsung's finest should go on sale further up North starting with April 26.
We'll keep you posted.

Mike Pence, the GOP front runner for Indiana Governor, used to sit on the Republican Study Committee in Congress. The Representative from Indiana is using the contacts and trust made while in that position to attempt to convince the Republicans in the House to vote for a non-partisan version of the balanced budget amendment.
The version he is siding with, and asking his party's members to vote for, wouldn't require the majority vote to raise taxes or place caps on Congressional spending. Here's the tradeoff. If the other members would vote for the bill that was supported by House members in the mid 90's, he would be swayed to consider the proposal of Representative Boehner' s for the debt ceiling.
Pence said that the BBA that is supported by the majority of fiscal conservatives (cut, cap, and balance) doesn't have the support it needs for the 2/3 vote in the Senate, nor in the state legislatures. The vote had to be rescheduled for Thursday. It is also reported by the CBO that the Boehner bill will fall short of the amount of the estimated savings.

Porsche Recalls Models With Wheels That May Loosen
Increased performance may come with increased risk for some Porsche drivers.
The German sports car maker is recalling certain 911 Turbo, Turbo S, 911 GT3, GT3 RS and GT2 RS vehicles from the 2010 and 2011 model years to replace wheel bolts that could become loose.
In a document filed with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration the car maker said the recall affects 1,702 cars built from May 18, 2009 through Sept. 17, 2010 and equipped with center-locking hub and wheel assemblies. The special hubs are standard on some models and optional on others.
Over time, the company says, the hubs can wear prematurely and the wheels could loosen, which increases the risk of a crash. The affected cars are among the highest-performance models that Porsche makes, and use a single large nut and bolt assembly to attach each of its lightweight racing-style wheels.
The company says the problem stems from the degree to which the wheel bolts need to be tightened depending on how the car is driven. For street use the wheels were to be tightened to a torque reading of 500 Newton meters, which was printed on the hub assembly. But they needed to be tighter for track use. The company says it knows of four confirmed cases in Europe and one unconfirmed case in the U.S. in which the bolts loosened during track use. Porsche says the problem hasn't caused any injuries.
Under the recall, Porsche dealers will replace the central locking hubs and wheels with an improved design. The service is free of charge. Owners may contact the company at 800-767-7243.

In the latest move by network president Jeff Zucker to right the CNN ship, a decision has been made to shelve the three year old interview program "Piers Morgan Live" effective next month. British journalist and talent show judge Piers Morgan replaced legendary radio personality and TV interviewer Larry King in 2011. The hosts of both shows were victims of the ratings slump that has plagued the Atlanta based network in recent years.
When appointed as successor to CNN veteran Larry King, Piers Morgan seemed to be a controversial choice. At the time it was thought that the network needed to make a bold move to stop the ratings hemorrhage. Morgan's style and opinions were probably better suited towards CNN's international audience. With tirades on the hot button issue of gun control, Morgan failed to connect with the majority of CNN's viewers.
Look, I am a British guy debating American cultural issues, including guns, which has been very polarizing… – Piers Morgan, New York Times interview
According to Deadline.com discussions regarding Morgan's fate likely amped up after ratings results revealed last week that the 9pm program pulled in an estimated 50,000 viewers in a key demographic. The show claimed about 61,000 more viewers in that key demographic just the previous week. In both weeks the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi were aired on broadcast and cable television and isn't believed to be the cause of the ratings drop.
On Sunday Morgan announced in an interview with The New York Times that he and CNN planned to part ways in March. Now the network will be on the hunt to fill the vacancy in its primetime schedule. Before arriving at CNN, Zucker worked with former Today anchor Katie Couric whose daytime talk show is ending soon. Could Couric be CNN's solution? During her career at NBC, CBS and ABC daytime; Couric interviewed celebrities, politicos and discussed a variety of issues which makes her very qualified to fill Morgan's time slot.

Everyone is talking about Big Data these days: how to capture it; how to manage it; how to store it; and how to use it. Businesses that deal in physical commodities, such as oil and gas, are no exception. But what is interesting about managing commodities is that it has always been a big data business - long before the term became fashionable.
Now that the EPA has issued its final regulations for its Clean Power Plan (CPP), all of the interested parties, in and out of government, are spending hours and hours and hours reading through the 1560 page document.
Hunt Consolidated Takes the Lead in the Bidding for Oncor, Energy Future Holding's (EFH) Transmission and Distribution UtilityOn August 10th, Hunt Consolidated, a group of junior creditors, investment firms and the Texas teachers' pension fund (Hunt) reached an agreement with Energy Future Holdings (EFH) in bankruptcy court for its $19 billion bid for the Oncor piece of EFH.
Electric utilities are facing an unprecedented challenge in their business model. Thanks to changing technologies and government regulations, the electric utility business model is ripe for a paradigm shift.
Earlier this year, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission ("FERC"), the federal agency that oversees interstate natural gas transportation and electric transmission, changed the way shippers on interstate natural gas pipelines nominate and pipelines confirm service.
When our lights go off, we blame the weather. Oftentimes, weather is the cause of a power outage. It could have been a severe storm (like the derecho from 2012), a hurricane (Katrina and Irene, among others), or a heat wave.
There are occasions when the economics of transportation indicates cost benefits for commercial transportation vehicles to draw electric power from the grid, either directly in real time or during off-peak generation periods using energy storage technology.
Here in the United States, we're lucky to have a diverse supply of energy sources producing electricity for our homes and businesses.
Recently, a story about restructured Enron crossed my desk. "Hasn't it all been said?", I thought to myself. However, as I think back on that time and how the industry has changed, I wonder if the bad taste left in our mouths has only been covered over with the next big scandal.

Sony recently introduced the Xperia Z2 tablet, a great looking Android device that arrived as Apple reported a decline in iPad sales for the most recent quarter. Reacting to Apple's earnings release that showed the iPad sales decline, a CBSNews.com article dated July 28 asked whether Apple CEO Tim Cook's recent statement that he does 80% of his work on his iPad is a method of working that will carry over to other office workers in the foreseeable future. Clearly most office workers were not buying new iPads last quarter when sales declined. CBS concludes that most people aren't buying iPads for use at work because they still need Microsoft Office and they need real keyboards. Huffingtonpost.com offers another explanation: people are buying Android tablets because they cost half as much as iPads.
Sony's new Xperia Z2 tablet is a great Android tablet though it costs as much as an iPad and still doesn't have a real keyboard or come with price breaks for Microsoft Office. The Xperia Z2 performed well in this writer's recent hands-on review and it is likely its price will decrease faster than iPad prices do. Here are a few points of interest comparing the newly released Sony Xperia R2 tablet to the latest iPad, the iPad Air, introduced in October, 2013.
The Sony Xperia Tablet Z2 uses a quad-core Snapdragon 801 processor. It has 3 gigabytes of memory, along with a graphics processor, the Graphics Adreno 330 GPU. Sony Xperia Z2 comes with either 16 or 32 gigabytes of storage and that storage can grow later if needed: Xperia Z2 allows the buyer to add memory cards with up to 64 gigabytes more storage. For comparison, the Apple iPad Air uses an ARM v8-based Cyclone A7 processor. The iPad Air comes in four storage capacity options, 16, 32, 64 or 128 gigabytes. The price increases $100 with each increase in storage size, and iPads are not designed for the buyer to upgrade storage later.
Sony Xperia Z2 uses a typical Android-sized 10.1 inch screen. The display has 1920 by 1080 pixels which is 224 pixels per inch. That's less pixels per inch than the iPad Air, which provides 2048×1536 pixels, or 264 pixels per inch. The iPad has a 9.7 inch screen that's squarer than the Android screen; check the photo attached to this article for a view of the two screens.
Xperia features an 8 megapixel rear camera and a 2.2 megapixel front camera. The iPad offers less camera power than Xperia: iPad has a 5 megapixel rear-facing camera and a 1.2 MP front facing camera.
Sony Xperia Z2 weighs 439 grams and it's 6.4 mm thick. The iPad Air is 7.5 mm thick and weighs 469 grams. So the Xperia is thinner and lighter but the difference not really noticeable.
The Sony Xperia Z2 tablet costs: $499.99 with 2-year Verizon commitment, or $599.99 without a commitment, or $29.99 per month for 20 months on a Verizon zero down plan. The iPad Air prices are very similar for a device with Verizon service; the list price is higher, but Verizon can usually come up with a tablet deal for anyone signing up for a new Verizon service plan. Now that iPad Air is nine months old, there should be deals out there for them; still, iPad Air price reductions are few and far between. For more on the specs check Streetwisetech's article comparing the Sony Xperia Z2 to the iPad Air.
If you're really making a decision between these the Xperia and iPad Air, you will probably decide based on the operating system. While both systems accomplish the same work, Android's look and feel is very different from Apple's iOS. Most people will choose the operating system they have used most in the past. Still, the advantages of Sony's Xperia Z2 tablet are that it has a newer processor, it allows upgrade via an inexpensive memory card, it has better cameras and it's a little thinner and lighter than iPad Air. Advantages of iPad Air are that it has more pixels in its display and a higher-powered battery. Check the video attached to this article for a view of the Xperia Z2.

Outblush Operative Kristen of KristenLovesDesign writes: Let's face it, we all like to have cool art books on our bookshelves and coffee tables. Of course there's nothing worse than having one of these books around when a dinner party guest asks you about your favorite piece of art in the book. Yeah, pretty awkward. With Grapefruit: A Book of Instructions and Drawings by Yoko Ono ($12) (well, provided you at least look at a few pages, ideally. It's short! Look at all of the pages already!) you'll own a piece of art in a cool- looking book. So when you say your favorites are "Snow Piece" and "Cloud Piece" you'll sound super artsy and hip and it will have them asking questions about the art of Yoko Ono (hint, say you saw one of her exhibitions at the Seattle Art Museum years ago, then talk about the weather), and no one will be the wiser!

Encyclopedia of Jazz Musicians
Eisenbeil, Bruce (Jeffrey)
Eisenbeil, Bruce (Jeffrey), guitarist, composer, educator; b. Chicago, IL, 21 August 1968. A year after he was born, his family moved to Plainfield, NJ. He has one sister (Sharon b.1964). His mother (Nancy Marie Pfletschinger b.1931) studied piano in New York City though never performed professionally. His father (John Carl Eisenbeil b.1929) played trumpet in a high school big band and with small dance combos.
Bruce received a guitar when he was 4 years old and learned from friends and relatives. When he was 10 years old he received a full size guitar and private instruction. Although Eisenbeil is primarily self-taught he did enjoy a few good teachers including Joe Pass, Howard Roberts and Joe Diorio. He studied advanced harmonic, melodic and improvisational techniques with Dennis Sandole. He attended workshops with: Elliott Carter, Daniel Barenboim, George Lewis, Pat Martino, Roscoe Mitchell, Butch Morris, Evan Parker, Cecil Taylor, Charles Wourinen. Composition studies with Gheorge Costinescu, Paul Levy, George Rochberg.
Eisenbeil began performing professionally when he was 15. While a teenager he performed with rock cover and tribute bands in the New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania area and he performed jazz with small combos at dinner theaters and social events. He also performed in the pit band of musicals including Annie and Little Shop of Horrors.
Eisenbeil has worked all over the United States. Throughout the 1980's he performed in a variety of jazz or rhythm and blues bands. From 1985-1986 he performed with soul singer Johnny Stewert. By 1987 Eisenbeil began to devote his time to composing original music, playing jazz and exploring free improvisation. In 1992 he received critical acclaim in Brazil, where he performed for 3 weeks as a guest soloist with the Carlos Oliva Band. While in Brazil he was interviewed on public radio and received recognition in several prominent newspapers.
By 1993 Eisenbeil began performing his original compositions with his own band. From 1995-1997 Eisenbeil worked with Philadelphia alto saxophonist Jimmy Stewart and his 35-year-old avant-garde sextet Kuntu. Eisenbeil moved to New York City in 1996. His trio, which included Rob Brown (alto sax, flute) and Lou Grassi (drums), performed at several festivals and made a 10-city tour.
Since then, Eisenbeil has collaborated and/or recorded with some fine musicians including Cecil Taylor, David Murray, Milford Graves, Andrew Cyrille, William Parker, Micheal Manring, Ellery Eskelin, Gregg Bendian, Howard Johnson, Lukas Ligeti, Santi Debriano, Wilbur Morris, Ramsey Ameen, William Hooker, Roy Campbell Jr., Jason Kao Hwang, Fred Lonberg-Holm, Sabir Mateen, Daniel Carter, Steve Swell, Jackson Krall, India Cooke, Eddie Gale, Edgar Bateman, Matt Maneri, Badal Roy, Bob Moses, Rob Brown, Lou Grassi and many other fine musicians.
Critics have compared him not only with guitarists such as Wes Montgomery, Joe Pass, Django Reinhardt, Sonny Sharrock, Curtis Mayfield, Jimi Hendrix, Billy Bauer and Sarnie Garrett, but also with saxophonists John Coltrane and Ornette Coleman and pianists McCoy Tyner and Cecil Taylor. His ensemble writing has been associated with the Art Ensemble of Chicago and the Revolutionary Ensemble.
Beginning in 1997 Eisenbeil was pivotal in helping to produce for release the work of guitarist Dennis Sandole whose guitar quartet, although recorded in 1958, was previously unreleased. Tapes of this session became famous after being passed around the jazz community for decades. Eisenbeil spent 2 years researching and mastering this project from the best available source material, a cassette recording of a discarded studio acetate. The Dennis Sandole Project (Cadence1102) which includes the guitar quartet, music for solo piano and a jazz ballet opera was finally released in 1999.
Throughout February 2001, Eisenbeil participated as the sole guitarist in Cecil Taylor's Ensemble which included over 40 participants. This was an event that Eisenbeil organized from the ground up. Painters, poets and musicians from all over the world, traveled to New York City to work in this ensemble. A rigorous rehearsal schedule culminated in a sold-out standing room only three-hour concert. A cover story in the June 2001 issue of JAZZIZ magazine documents the event. Eisenbeil's third cd for CIMP, Opium, was chosen one of the 20 best releases on 2002 by the readers and writers of Cadence magazine.
He married Danielle George in 1997.
It Will Have Been Said is a quartet developed by Eisenbeil and features Wolfgang Fuchs (bcl, cl, sops), Damon Smith (b) and Michael Wimberly (d, perc). They performed in June 2003. In November of 2003 Eisenbeil's trio Conciousnessperformed the music of John Coltrane in New York City. This trio features Rosi Hertlein (vln, v) and Charles Cohen (Buchla Music Easal). In late 2003 Eisenbeil toured Japan with drummer Stephen Flinn. Having the opportunity to travel to several cities, they performed 18 concerts in 20 days.
First and foremost Eisenbeil is a jazz musician. He has described himself as a guitarist, improviser and composer. His imagination and interests were stimulated by a broad array of musical styles that he heard as a boy and later sought to incorporate into a jazz sensibility. In a totally personal way, Eisenbeil's harmonic language combines tonality, atonality, modalism, and serialism. Eisenbeil has always refused to adopt a single system in his music. The amalgamation of divergent conceptions of tonal formations is part of his harmonic language.
Eisenbeil's scores employ a variety of notations: graphic, illustrative, standard. His melodies often explore wide interval leaps reminiscent of Eric Dolphy and the John Coltrane's late period. A few techniques Eisenbeil is prone to utilize include: Non-retrogradeable rhythms, palindromes, ametric passages, simultaneous use of multiple tempos and tempo modulation. Alternating meters are found in Oak Tree. Resonant chord clusters, odd-time signatures and the combination of isorhythm and isomelos are found in Confessions. His chord solos in Oak Tree correspond to the art of McCoy Tyner, while Woman With A Handful Of Rain is another piece loaded with references to John Coltrane's universe.
The fixing in register of a field of pitches over a comparatively long stretch of music is a phenomenon in Eisenbeil's music. This is explored in several of his compositions including: Caesar, Wildflowers, and Hermitage of Xzheng Xzhu. Where Wildflowers is based on a twelve-tone scale spanning two and a half octaves, Caesar draws largely upon the resources of polytonality and polymodality by exploring, simultaneously, three distinct tonalities - E major Ionian, G minor Dorian and Bb minor Phrygian - as the basis for the themes and harmony. Hermitage of Xzheng Xzhu is also polytonal and polymodal exploring the tonalities of E major Mixolydian, Gm Aeolian and Db major Lydian.
Eisenbeil's musical interests sometimes refer to the sphere of Western sacred music. Melodies written with no indication of rhythm can be heard by the flute in Hermitage of Xzheng Xzhu and by Eisenbeil on Crucifixion. The desolate melodies (which correspond with non-spoken words inspired by Luke 23: 33-46) spelled by the guitar are written in Gregorian plainsong. The latitude of interpretation this leaves fosters the dramatic intensification of individual expression.
Blue Poles is named after a Jackson Pollock painting whose layering sequence Eisenbeil has followed: black, white, aluminum, orange, yellow, black and blue. Eisenbeil developed themes and chords after defining his own color scales -- or used Oliver Messiaen's when possible.
Eisenbeil has invented a variety of techniques which he uses for a personal expression. Extreme de-tuning, string preparations, glass slide in extreme registers and hybrid picking techniques to name just a few.

If you're looking for a film to inspire your summer fun, check out Jon Favreau's latest, "Chef." Half of the film is dedicated to a cross-country trip between father and son exploring regional cultures through their food and music. This film will inspire your own family road trip.
Chef Carl Casper (Favreau) runs the kitchen in a restaurant for Riva (Dustin Hoffman). When an online food critic (Oliver Platt) is planning to rate Carl's food, Carl plans an elaborate, creative dinner to show off with his fellow kitchen staff (Bobby Cannavale and John Leguizamo), but Riva wants to stick to their never-changing menu. After a drastically negative article, Carl is forced to change his life and follow his dream of running his own place. His ex-wife, Inez (Sofia Vergara), talks him into an opportunity through her other ex-husband (Robert Downey, Jr.) to get a food truck where he can serve his Cuban inspirations. Together with his son, Percy (Emjay Anthony), and sous chef Martin (Leguizamo), Carl drives his new truck across country to return home and unexpectedly rekindles his bond with his son and finds his confidence and passion again.
The beginning of "Chef" is a little rocky. Carl experiences Twitter for the first time and loses control of his feelings; his ignorance and reactions are silly. He responds to his hurt feelings rather than defending his limited situation. Once he accepts his food truck destiny, "Chef" becomes a warm and enjoyable, naturally-flowing film.
Jon Favreau wrote and directed "Chef" along with starring as the lead. He even contributed some footage of his cooking training in the credits. His warm persona is relatable for the audience and clearly worked to get a huge cast of talent to join his film, including the stars from his "Iron Man" films: Robert Downey, Jr. and Scarlett Johansson. His onscreen and off-screen charm makes "Chef" a fantastic return as director after his disappointing "Cowboys & Aliens."
"Chef" releases at the perfect time of the year to relate its subject matter. This is the time of year for open roads, adventure, and food trucks. "Chef" is a cultural experience of both food and music as its protagonist travels across the South and introduces his son to the specialties of each stop. The food is understandably highlighted and will make audiences salivate, but street and local music performances round out the experience.
Favreau has made another likeable family film, though aim for mature enough kids to handle language and suggestive dialogue since it is rated R. "Chef" feels real as all parents make some bad, or at least questionable, decisions. The second half makes up for the earlier flawed script and leaves you feeling a little lighter. There may be no better word to describe this film than "pleasant."
Rating for "Chef:" B+

"Chef" is currently playing at four theatres in Columbus, Gateway, AMC Lennox and Easton, and Drexel, but looks to widen its showings this weekend. For showtimes, click here.

First time making the soup was a big success - I tried a bowl of it for the first time today (3 days after I made it).
It is really good & it has a kick to it! I don't know why it does, the green pepper, onion & black pepper must really work together well, it's not bland like I thought it would be. I think I would make it even if it was not the main part of the sacred heart diet, bt maybe after 7 days of it, I'll take that comment back.

I will be starting the Scared Heart Diet on Wednesday, it runs for 7 days & there is a very strict meal plan that you must follow. The concept is to follow the meal plan, which is a low calorie, high fruit/veggie diet & then to fill up your "hungry-time" you eat as much of the cabbage soup as you want. Do this for 7 days & you can potentially loose up to 15 pounds (results will vary of course) & it will clean your body naturally. It is a fresh start for people who are very driven & want to see results fast , it's a great jump start for any dieter & it will shrink your stomach. I will be posting the diet plan soon & tracking my progress with this online blog & with video diaries. If you would like to join the diet, we kick off in 2 days! Good luck

GETTYSBURG, Pa. – The SyFy network paranormal team, Ghost Hunters, spent several days investigating two Gettysburg locations – the Jennie Wade House and the Haunted Orphanage, (Homestead Orphanage), in late last September.
At 9 p.m., Wednesday, January 22, the premiere episode of the 10th season of Ghost Hunters, will feature the investigation and its results at both locations, said Dwayne Pope, a tour guide, with Ghostly Images, who worked with the television production team. Ghostly Images, of Gettysburg Ghost Tours, owns both historic locations.
"They've never been here before," Pope said. "The production crew were there for about a week. Jason Hawes, Steve Gonsalves and Dave Tango were there for two days. They investigated the Cashtown Inn a couple of years ago."
Gettysburg, Pope said, is considered to be one of the most haunted towns in the U.S. About two years ago, Haunted History, a production of the History 2 network, (H2), investigated both locations. That episode aired last season.
The Jennie Wade House, named after the only civilian to die during the Battle of Gettysburg, was named by the Travel Channel as the sixth most haunted house in America and the most haunted building in Gettysburg," Pope said. "The Jennie Wade House has been featured on Ghost Adventures, Ghost Lab, Ghost Finders, Most Haunted Live, Haunted History on the History 2 Network, CBS Radio and a local television station, WPMT Fox 43. Visitors to the Jennie Wade House have experienced items in the home moving inexplicably, noises, footsteps, orbs, voices, the scent of bread baking in the kitchen and full body apparitions. Reports of unexplained activity are shared on a nearly daily basis."
The orphanage was named in an article featured in the USA Today, as one of the top ten creepiest places in the United States to visit, Pope said. The orphanage has also played host to Ghost Adventures, Ghost Lab, Ghost Finders, Haunted History on the History 2 Network, CBS Radio and local television station WPMT Fox 43.
"Visitors to the orphanage also share their experiences, including but not limited to items moving, noises, voices of children, toys in the cellar being moved around, orbs, foul odors and full body apparitions of children," Pope said. "These unexplained phenomena are also reported on a nearly daily basis."
In 1866, the National Homestead at Gettysburg, was opened as an orphanage and a home for widows. Located on Baltimore Street, adjacent to Cemetery Hill. It was founded to honor Amos Humiston, a Union sergeant with New York 154th Regiment, known as the "Hardtack" regiment, who was killed on the first day of the battle, July 1, 1863. About a week later, near York and Stratton streets, Humiston's body was discovered. Grasped in his hand was an ambrotype, an early type of photograph, depicting his three children – Frank, 8; Alice, 6; and Freddie, 4.
A Philadelphia physician, Dr. John Francis Bourns, tried to identify Humiston's body. During the Civil War, soldiers were not issued dog tags as they are today. As a result of the publicity, some time in mid-November, Hunston was identified. As a result of the publicity, Bourns was able to raise money to found the orphanage for the children of Union soldiers, killed during the war.
Within 12 years of its opening, the orphanage closed as a result of a scandal involving allegations that the orphanage matron, Rosa Carmichael, allegedly abused children. According to news coverage of the day, Carmichael had created a dungeon in the basement, where she shackled some children. Bourns, who was responsible for founding the orphanage, was also accused of embezzling a large amount of funds from the Homestead, according to historical records.
In connection with the Ghost Hunters investigation, operators of both buildings are offering combination tours. The tours will be available, on Saturdays, beginning January 25 and running through March 1. The price is $13 per person.

What Is Greece Like?
Greece's debt crisis is basically a first: The euro zone has never faced a serious challenge of this magnitude before, and no one knows how it's going to react to the challenge or what would happen in the event of failure. Nevertheless, that hasn't stopped people from digging through the past for clues as to how the situation might play out. Here are some analogies:
Greece is like Argentina in 2001: "The first stage on the road to a currency crisis occurs when a country, motivated by the desire to import policy discipline from abroad, adopts a fixed exchange rate to which its economy is patently ill-suited," wrote Desmond Lachman in the FT. The trick to this analogy is that the shelter the IMF provided for Argentina's peg came with conditions tough enough to force rioting in the streets. Eventually the IMF figured out it was dealing with a lack of solvency on Argentina's part, not a lack of liquidity, pulled out and the peg was broken, but too late for the resulting devaluation to help and late enough for Argentina to still hurt from the IMF's conditions for years. "Not only does this saddle a country with a mountain of official debt that cannot be rescheduled," writes Lachman. "It also deepens and prolongs the recession from which any post-devaluation recovery might begin."
Conclusion if Greece is Argentina: "Athens should leave the euro zone sooner rather than later. However, that is not the way that Greek tragedies play out."
Greece is like Iceland last year: CDS on Greek bonds are reaching the levels that they were on Iceland's bonds before everything went awry. Greece faces a diminishing number of investors willing to lend to it. At a certain point, Iceland could find no one who was willing to lend it money, at which point the system caved.
Conclusion if Greece is like Iceland: Savor the irony of Iceland's politicians pushing to join the euro to avoid a repeat of its debt crisis if Greece ends up flying out of the euro zone due to a repeat of the Iceland debt crisis.
Greece is like Lehman Brothers: The fall of Lehman Brothers led investors guessing who might be next and, once they'd agreed on who it was, made their guesses true by rapidly pulling out of the company (and then guessing who would be next). Financial News points to a note from Gary Jenkins at Evolution Securities that says that Greece could have a Lehman-like effect on a country-wide scale: Investors pull out of the next country that looks fiscally Greek, then the next, then the next…
Conclusion if Greece is like Lehman: " Is it Portugal, Italy, Spain?" Jenkins imagines investors asking.
Greece is like Spain in 1824 (or Austria in 1868): This is the very long view of the matter (starting with an English default in the Middle Ages), which puts Greece on the crest of a wave of sovereign defaults that periodically crashes across the world. Daniel Fisher at Forbes supplies a handy timeline of the percentage of countries in default over the past 150 years, drawing on research from economists Kenneth Rogoff and Carmen Reinhart. What's driving those waves across the decades? Investors overestimate the safety of sovereign bonds in the good times, which become rapidly less safe in bad times. "As a nation's finances deteriorate, foreign investors sell their bonds, putting upward pressure on interest rates. That usually sets off a spiral including a deteriorating currency, which, if the bonds are denominated in foreign currencies, makes it impossible for the country to pay its debt."
Conclusion if Greece is part of this cycle. "Greece doesn't have to worry about this last syndrome, because it uses the euro," says Fisher. "But that might make things worse since it can't print its way out of its financial difficulties." But Greece isn't likely to be the only country with default problems so you'd better check on how other sovereign bonds are doing. For instance, Argentina's (see above).
Broader conclusion: It has been remarkable how two years of near-constant crisis has freshened historical analogies. Back when Lehman Brothers collapsed, commentators debated whether this was like the 1930s Great Depression, the 1990s Swedish bank collapse or the Panic of 1873. Now Lehman Brothers has itself become a historical benchmark, as has Iceland. We are living through history before we've really had a chance to learn from it.

If it is a caching issue/cookie thing, probably wise to not log in to your account at all..
I think you may have missed the point of the article...
So they had to write code for a single device, (ok, maybe 2 versions) - all of which are in the "walled garden" and share the same code, and they still havent got it right?! Jeez.
Ahh gotcha!
What's up with this sliding out overlay that seems to have appeared on articles?
Kinda annoying having to move the page up and down to be able to read the last bit of the article.
Could you put a close button on it so at least I can make it go away?
Christmas eve eve, I did a little experiment with getUserMedia to show snow falling on top of the webcam feed, and have it settle on any horizontal edges. Didn't take that long and I thought it was pretty cool, considering its just some JavaScript and a dash of CSS.
Once it all gets finalised and secured properly, it's going to make for some cool stuff being built - lots of nice interactivity without having to resort to Flash.
I think Myth Busters tested it as well, can't remember the outcome..
I noticed that since I have started doing this with one of my spare domains (I went back and changed emails on quite a few existing accounts as well), the amount of spam I get has dropped. Could just be a coincidence, but I have this image of a marketing bod running a "select email from customers where email not like '%mycompany%'" or some such thing
The problem is when 2 or more independent parties come up with the same algorithm - might be a long shot, but not outside the realms of possibility. If both parties have spent millions and years to develop it, why shouldn't they both be allowed to profit from it? "I got here first so pay me loads of money" just seems wrong.
When the maps let you down and you get stuck in the middle of nowhere, you can share that fact with your friends - in fact you could offer a new badge, the more you get lost the higher up the rankings you go
They sold it.
Why does everyone hate on Yodel?
I've never had a problem with them, in fact they have been super helpful.
Had deliveries that I missed, they left a card with a mobile number, rang that and the driver came back 15 mins later. This was at 18:15 when I got home from work.
Seems good to me.
So the lesson here would be not to base your entire business upon someone elses data.
At the end of the day, it's Twitter data, that is generated by Twitters users, you can't really complain if they then decide to change THEIR business model, and you are stuck because you didn't think that those nice people at Twitter would ever end your cosy agreement.
Saying "But I was here first!" doesn't really mean a great deal TBH
Can we move the badges to the left of the name? Being on the right, with different length usernames, they aren't aligned! Maybe it's just my OCD, but damn I want to move them!
So looking at the patent link, before the description is a list or links to other patents - I presume these are ones that are similar? There is also links to various sites (http://oreilly.com/javascript/archive/flashhacks.html , http://flippingbook.com/#demonstrations etc), all of which show the prior art .... so ... if they have found there is prior art, why have they granted it?
Or have I completely missed something here?!
Careful, you'll start the "is the internet a human right/basic need" argument again...
the only time I've had any issues with GiffGaff was when O2 went tits up a few months back. Most of the time when there are O2 issues, GiffGaff doesn't seem to be affected - unless its core network stuff it seems.
I was just thinking the other day that there used to be a way to show the area code, that way I didn't have to type the area code on my mobile for local calls, at least I didn't imagine it!
I quite like Yodel, got back ~18:00 to find a note which had a mobile number on, asking me to ring it.
Gave it a ring and the bloke popped back ~19:00.
The other issue with Apples maps compared to Googles maps, is that the satellite view for where I live now has a load of clouds obscuring large parts...eg http://dl.dropbox.com/u/6036078/thecloud.png
And I see no benefit of using Coffeescript here instead of Javascript, it's just adding another step to the deployment process, and one that doesn't (in my eyes) offer much (if any) benefit.
It seems to exist so that one can say "Javascript? Pffft thats old skool, I do Coffeescript - that's where it's at"
Personally, I find it a pain in the arse to read, it constantly looks like something is missing, and I don't really want to learn a new syntax and stuff to get to where I already am..
I had a very basic example here, but the forums don't keep formatting... https://gist.github.com/3736194
Didn't people do that when Sky dishes first arrived? I remember seeing brick covers on a Sky dish and totally not noticing it, no-sireee!
Yep, I rarely use CD's anymore.
I replaced my optical drives with SSDs on both my machines, bought an external £80 blue-ray writer from Maplins. Works a treat,
If you must watch it, try not to distract others around you and use the app (http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/olympics/18810308) - 24 live streams apparently - no mention of licence needed
Why are the FBI so interested in counterfiting CDs ... in India?
Really? Thats what they consider important?
How the shuddering feck did BT get to 'protect' the MOD from internet nasties?!
Are you?
Since when was El Reg an ISP that was hit with the courts ban hammer?
Or the QA / peer reviewer that missed it...
Indeed, I got to work this morning and promptly poured coffee all over my phone - quick dash for paper towels and its all better.
I presume the **** is fuck? If so, where exactly is the "inciting racial hatred" part?
By fixed, I assume you mean exactly the same, only with a different coding structure that makes reading it damn hard, and debugging near impossible? (Unless they have fixed the debugging since I last looked at it)
Is it just me, or are these claims just a case of making some easy money?
Can't we just tell these people to sod off, grow a backbone, and move on?
Oh no, someone said I wrote something that I didn't, they paid me some money, so now I think Im entitled to even more money from someone else...ffs
A question floating in my head, how one can steal public property?
If it is public property, then aren't you able to take it - as you are part of the public?
to develop for iPhone, you need to have a mac.
So not only do you have to get a developer licence thing, you also have to buy a mac (if you don't have one)
Android can be built on windows/mac/linux so theres an easier adoption right there.
Yep, think we called it the 'American Dream'
I wouldnt touch ebay with someone elses, so that won't be happening.
So where, pray tell, can I sell my old Apple goods and still get a decent price? (and by apple goods, I mean actual computers - not fondleslabs)
Yea, now the annoying shites that don't understand the concept of headphones can bug me in surround instead...joy
I'm missing something here...why do the emergency services have to wait 5 minutes for bands to clear? Aren't they operating on completely different bands?
just think, if they win, then all that money they end up with will mean they can build a super-fantastic fiber network...
So someone printed something out, and someone else got fired for it?
How can you get fired because someone said that you said something!?
Couldnt he have just deleted it from his wall, then complained that the other person was setting him up?
I was thinking the same thing.
All my Exchange and Gmail email comes through comes through in the default Mail app, I can't see any reason why you would need this?
and then what?
Is this article based around http://code.google.com/p/google-js-test/ or something else?
You didn't exactly make things clear now, did you?
Obv it's Friday, but still...a dash of clarity wouldnt go amiss
Ah, so thats why Spotify asked me to give it permissions to Facebook. I just denied it and it still works fine.
most of the post offices I have been to either shut early, have 1 person working at any one time, or are now closed.

City of Detroit, based upon the more recent events within our governmental boundaries: the conviction of our ex-mayor and his chief of staff, the conviction of a city council member who was a fixture of the community and married to an icon, the legendary congressman, we thought it prudent to explore the following question: "What does it mean to humble ourselves when we pray?"
Let us examine the following scripture as text:
2 Chronicles 34:26-28 (New King James Version) states:
26 But as for the king of Judah, who sent you to inquire of the LORD, in this manner you shall speak to him, 'Thus says the LORD God of Israel: "Concerning the words which you have heard— 27 because your heart was tender, and you humbled yourself before God when you heard His words against this place and against its inhabitants, and you humbled yourself before Me, and you tore your clothes and wept before Me, I also have heard you," says the LORD. 28 "Surely I will gather you to your fathers, and you shall be gathered to your grave in peace; and your eyes shall not see all the calamity which I will bring on this place and its inhabitants."
1And the LORD said unto Moses, Go in unto Pharaoh: for I have hardened his heart, and the heart of his servants, that I might shew these my signs before him:
2And that thou mayest tell in the ears of thy son, and of thy son's son, what things I have wrought in Egypt, and my signs which I have done among them; that ye may know how that I am the LORD.
3And Moses and Aaron came in unto Pharaoh, and said unto him, Thus saith the LORD God of the Hebrews, How long wilt thou refuse to humble thyself before me? let my people go, that they may serve me.
4Else, if thou refuse to let my people go, behold, to morrow will I bring the locusts into thy coast:
Proverbs 6:2-4 (King James Version)
2Thou art snared with the words of thy mouth, thou art taken with the words of thy mouth.
3Do this now, my son, and deliver thyself, when thou art come into the hand of thy friend; go, humble thyself, and make sure thy friend.
4Give not sleep to thine eyes, nor slumber to thine eyelids.
Proverbs 19:20-22 (King James Version)
20Hear counsel, and receive instruction, that thou mayest be wise in thy latter end.
21There are many devices in a man's heart; nevertheless the counsel of the LORD, that shall stand.
The idea or notion here is one of reciprocity which is a mutual beneficial exchange.
God wants us to seek His counsel (or will) that we may give of ourselves to His glory (benefit). We set our hearts to understand those things which He wants from us. We also desire that He (God) instruct us (counsel us) into our blessings or grace. We desire that when we communicate (pray) to Him, He will hear us.
We however are made subject to our vanities:
Romans 8:19-21 (King James Version)
19For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God.
20For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected the same in hope,
21Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God.
Does God "make" us to be the way that we are? Subject to our vanities, weaknesses (or vain ways of thinking about things)? Beings full of plans or schemes, was this God's doing?
As the scripture says: Thou art snared with the words of thy mouth. God has made us who we are. Our belief system, whatever it is, came from Him (whether through our parents, their beliefs or simply through the way God made us to freely think and believe).
The scripture also states :there are many devices (creations or schemes) in a man's heart.
Pharaoh's heart was hardened. Or, God made him to be "set " in his position. He refused to let God's people go, that they may serve Him (God). But as the scripture further states:
for I have hardened his heart, and the heart of his servants, that I might shew these my signs before him:
2And that thou mayest tell in the ears of thy son, and of thy son's son, what things I have wrought in Egypt, and my signs which I have done among them; that ye may know how that I am the LORD.
This means that God made Pharaoh be and think the way he did FOR HIS GLORY IN THE EARTH.
The next question becomes: Do we have the power to direct our paths (lives) or control our fate(s)?
(To be continued. . ) Thank you for reading and God Bless.

High School Vending Machines May Contribute to Teen Obesity
August 15, 2013
Lebanon, NH
Sugary drinks have been linked to youth obesity, and teens are drinking more of them. Are high school vending machines part of the problem? It could depend on where the school is located, according to Anna M. Adachi-Mejia, assistant professor of Pediatrics at the Geisel School of Medicine and The Dartmouth Institute, and a member of the Cancer Control Research Program at NCCC.
Adachi-Mejia, who led a study that examined high school beverage vending machine content in 26 Vermont and New Hampshire high schools, reported on the research in "Variation in access to sugar-sweetened beverages in vending machines across rural, town, and urban high schools," recently published in Public Health.
The study found that the most common beverages offered in high school vending machines were flavored water (34.8%), sugar-sweetened beverages (23.6%), and plain water (21.8%). Compared to vending machines in urban schools, town high schools had more machine-front advertising and offered up to twice as many sugar-sweetened beverages.
"This variation suggests an opportunity for us to learn how some schools were able to offer healthier choices. They could serve as role models for other schools," Adachi-Mejia said. "We should be paying attention to what kinds of beverages kids are drinking. Cancer prevention starts with a healthy diet and with adequate physical activity. These behaviors can also prevent obesity, which is a risk factor for many different types of cancers."
Since teens spend most of their time in school, the food and drinks offered there can influence their food choices. School lunch menus follow federal regulations that limit unhealthy foods, but school vending machines have not been consistently regulated, and often offer unlimited access to sugar-sweetened beverages. Most schools have limited the amount of soda they offer, but many adults may not realize that sport drinks, fruit drinks, nondiet iced teas, lemonade, and even chocolate milk are all sugar sweetened.
"I hope that this research starts the conversation about accessing healthy beverages in school. Parents and school staff can think of sugar-sweetened beverages as 'rarely' drinks. Everyday drinks include water and plain milk," Adachi-Mejia said. "Finding so much bottled water in the vending machines makes me wonder, do kids still have access to free, potable water in the schools? In terms of next steps, we should ask, when was the last time the water fountains were cleaned? Are they accessible? And is the water palatable?"
