Digging In, Lancaster: June 2010
http://charliecrystle.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html
Digging In, Lancaster. Tuesday, June 29, 2010. Thaddeus Stevens would have been ashamed of Lancaster County Commissioners Stuckey and Martin. Stevens was a proponent of the 14th Amendment, which contains perhaps our most important American principle next to freedom of speech:. Equal protection of the laws. Martin and Stuckey have decided in the past few days- without notice or public planning- to eliminate the Human Relations Commission. The Act, however, did not cover all unjust discrimination. Gays...

This Device Must Be Earthed: Fillmore

This Device Must Be Earthed. Hartman Electronics - Guitar Pedals and Effects. Saturday, November 28, 2009. To look at the sea of joy below it would have been hard to peg the decade if not for the occasional phantom-blue of cell phones. With music so effortlessly bordering on the sublime, and no doubt aided by an abundance of olfactory cues, if I closed my eyes to a squint, it was easy to imagine it was 40 years earlier to the day. This is one stage that holds a lot even when it's empty.

This Device Must Be Earthed: Blue on Black

This Device Must Be Earthed. Hartman Electronics - Guitar Pedals and Effects. Wednesday, February 24, 2010. Since I first stepped on Proco’s RAT distortion pedal sometime in early high school it has remained a favorite of mine. In my early years my guitar playing was largely rhythm, and I loved how the pedal’s compression and treble sensitivity to cut through in a band situation. Players with lots of pedals in the signal chain value predictability so we searched for a way to reconcile the volume differen...

Digging In, Lancaster: November 2010

Digging In, Lancaster. Tuesday, November 30, 2010. School board meets this evening in Executive Session. The nature of these things tends to be around either personnel issues or other stuff that falls within the scope of things we can discuss in private. Some of that, though, I disagree with, and tend to remind people of the limitations (and myself) of what we can discuss. The article on Phoenix Academy was incomplete; the board has in fact discussed turning it into a charter school, and the administrati...

Digging In, Lancaster: March 2011

Digging In, Lancaster. Tuesday, March 29, 2011. PBS Radio remains one of my top applications on the iPhone. I'm listening to WITF 93.3 at the moment- BBC news. 89.5 is likely playing classical music, which is fine, but I'd rather here news, Talk of the Nation, etc, and when I want to hear music, I'll choose my own. Later today I'll listen to KQED in San Francisco. Some days I miss morning edition, so I tune into the NPR station in Hawaii. We've come a long way. Check this out, for fun:. Links to this post.

Digging In, Lancaster. Thursday, July 29, 2010. The Socially Responsible Term Sheet. The socially responsible investment world has grown over the past 25 years to a decent level, but compared to the total amount of venture capital, it's a small percentage. It's a long list that keeps getting longer- opportunities to do things better, to reduce the impact on the world, to do so profitably. It's a great thing, mostly. Green is inside out, sustainability is inside out, and social responsibility is inside ou...
