California State Military Museum

The California State Military Museum was the official military museum of the State of California. It was located in the Old Sacramento State Historic Park at 1119 Second Street. A new site is under development. The museum begun in 1991, during the administration of California governor Pete Wilson. Eleven years later, Governor Gray Davis made it a permanent museum under the California State Military Department, providing it permanent funding. On 13 July 2004, Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger made it the State's official Military Museum. The museum highlights contributions of individuals and units from California in the US military, and its various military operations and wars. The museum in 2011, through a collaborated effort with the California Department of Veteran Affairs and the United States Department of Veterans Affairs, represented by guest curator Natalia Visante, created themed exhibitions showcasing various military units. In addition to its main location in Sacramento, the museum has five satellite museums located at Camp Roberts in southern Monterey County, Camp San Luis Obispo, Fresno Air National Guard Base, the Los Alamitos Joint Forces Training Base in Orange County, and the National Guard Armory in San Diego. To honor Californians who have laid down their lives in the global war on terrorism, the California State Military Museum built a "Global War on Terrorism Wall of Honor". Constructed of black granite, this memorial is located in the entrance of the museum. The names of the service members who died on September 11, 2001, in the attack on the Pentagon, as well as casualties of the Afghanistan and Iraq Campaigns are listed chronologically. The memorial includes their rank, branch of service, and age. Currently, the annual wreath-laying ceremony has ended, due to the museum's closure. The Major General Walter P. Story Memorial Library is one of the finest collections of military history writings in the western United States. With over 10,000 volumes and growing rapidly, the library is one of the state's hidden educational and historical treasures. Topics range from general military history to very specific and one-of-a-kind documents, such as original unit rosters of early California Militia units. As of March 2014, the California State Military Museum was closed amid disputes between the non-profit foundation operating it and the California Military Department, which oversees its operation. This conflict, in addition to state of California budget constraints, forced indefinite closure of the museum.

California Valley Solar Ranch

The California Valley Solar Ranch (CVSR) is a 250 megawatt (MWAC) photovoltaic power plant in the Carrizo Plain, northeast of California Valley. The project is owned by NRG Energy, and SunPower is the EPC contractor and technology provider. The project constructed on 1,966 acres (796 ha) of a 4,365-acre (1,766 ha) site of former grazing land. It is utilizing high-efficiency, crystalline PV panels designed and manufactured by SunPower. The project includes up to 88,000 SunPower solar tracking devices to hold PV panels that track the sun across the sky. Project overview The project began construction in 2011, and began operation in 2012 with 22 MW completed. It was fully completed in October 2013. At the time it was completed, "the California Valley Solar Ranch will power about 100,000 homes and will be one of the largest photovoltaic (PV) solar power plants in the world". The project is being constructed on 1,966 acres (796 ha) of a 4,365-acre (1,766 ha) site of former grazing land. It is utilizing high-efficiency, crystalline PV panels designed and manufactured by SunPower. The project includes up to 88,000 SunPower solar tracking devices to hold PV panels that track the sun across the sky. The project delivers approximately 550 gigawatt-hours (GW·h) annually of renewable energy and has a capacity of 250 MW. While the plant only has a capacity factor of 25%, its power is generated during the middle of the day, when demand for electricity — and price — is much higher than at night. Power purchase agreement On August 14, 2008, Pacific Gas and Electric announced an agreement to buy all the power from the power plant. A Conditional Use Permit application for the project was filed with the County of San Luis Obispo Planning and Building Department on January 14, 2009. On November 30, 2010, NRG Energy announced that it would buy CVSR from SunPower for "up to $450 million". In September 2011, the Department of Energy (DOE) offered NRG Solar a $1.237 billion loan from the federal government to cover most of the construction cost. The total cost of the project is estimated to be $1.6 billion. Environment The Carrizo Plain is home to 13 species listed as endangered either by the state or federal government, including the San Joaquin kit fox, giant kangaroo rat, and the California condor. SunPower worked with the community to protect local wildlife habitat and migration patterns, and reduced the amount of traffic in the area during construction. In 2012, it was reported that SunPower and First Solar had designed a plan to create a 19,000 acre reserve for the giant kangaroo rat, San Joaquin kit fox and golden eagle in order to address concerns about habitat destruction. Electricity production Incidents A fire removed 84% of the generating capacity from service in June 2019 when poles and cables were damaged by an "avian incident." Full service was expected to be restored within a month.

Camp Lake (California)

Camp Lake is a small tarn located in the Emigrant Wilderness in Tuolumne County, California, approximately 10 km (6.2 mi) north of Yosemite National Park. It is accessible only to hikers and equestrians via the popular Deer Lake Trail. Once a good fishing lake for Brook Trout, Camp Lake is no longer stocked by the California Department of Fish and Game due to the ongoing restoration of the Mountain Yellow Legged Frog in the Sierra Nevada. The lake once suffered from both winter and summer kills and relied on annual plants to sustain the fish population. The lake no longer contains trout. Trail information The Crabtree Camp Trailhead is large and usually full. The trail to Deer Lake descends a little, then begins climbing. Camp Lake, the destination for most hikers, is 2.8 mi (4.5 km) off the trailhead, at 7,590 ft (2,310 m) elevation. Backpackers continue to other lakes beyond.

Campbell Hall School

Campbell Hall School is an independent, coeducational, Episcopal, K–12 day school in the Studio City neighborhood of Los Angeles, California, United States. Founded in 1944 by the Reverend Alexander Campbell, the school has an enrollment of approximately 1,000 students from kindergarten through high school. It has programs in athletics, music, drama, dance, and all other major academic areas. The school features a developed Performing Arts Program. Students in kindergarten through grade 12 participate in dance, voice, instrumental, and drama programs. Orchestra and a World Music Program are available for grades 7–12. History The school opened in 1944 as a kindergarten to sixth-grade school at the St. David's Parish Sunday School building at 4343 Radford Avenue in Studio City. It moved to its current site in the 1945–46 school year. It gradually expanded to include junior high school, a girls' high school, and the acceptance of boys for all levels in the mid-1980s. The Fourth R, a film made in the late 1940s, explains the founding of the school based on a need for religion in the daily education of the school's students. The chapel program continues this tradition. Since its founding, Campbell Hall School has had three headmasters: Alexander Campbell, the founder; Thomas G. Clarke, who served for 32 years; and, since July 2003, Julian Bull. Tuition Tuition for the 2026–2027 school year is $48,700 (elementary school; grades K–5), $52,890 (grade 6), $57,080 (grades 7–12). Over $3,000,000 of Campbell Hall's $26,000,000 budget is dedicated to financial aid, although much of this is used to attract diversity and student athletes. Twenty-five percent of enrolled students receive grants averaging 50% of the cost of tuition. The remaining money for financial aid comes from the school's endowment.

Campo de Cahuenga

Campo de Cahuenga ist ein Museum für kalifornische und Stadtgeschichte in Los Angeles. Es liegt in unmittelbarer Nähe zu den Universal Studios nahe dem historischen Cahuenga Pass in North Hollywood. Das Gebäude ist als kalifornische und als Los Angeles Landmark registriert. Hier befand sich ein Lehmhaus, das ein Nachbau eines zur historischen Rancho Cahuenga gehörenden Gebäudes ist. 1847 wurde in dem Originalgebäude während des Mexikanisch-Amerikanischen Krieges der Vertrag von Cahuenga zwischen John C. Frémont und General Andrés Pico unterzeichnet. Der Vertrag beendete die Kampfhandlungen in Kalifornien. Name Der Name Cahuenga kommt nicht aus dem Spanischen, sondern stammt aus der Sprache der Tongva-Indianer und bedeutet „Ort des Fuchses“. Es war der Name einer Tongva-Siedlung, deren Standort heute unbekannt ist. Museumsgebäude Das Originalgebäude, in dem der Vertrag unterzeichnet wurde, ist 1900 abgerissen worden. 1923 wurden von der Stadt Los Angeles Mittel zum Ankauf des Geländes bereitgestellt. 1950 wurde eine Replik des Gebäudes errichtet. Angeregt wurde der Bau des im Stil des Mission Revival and Spanish Colonial Revival errichteten Gebäudes durch Irene T. Lindsay, die Vorsitzende der San Fernando Valley Historical Society. Später wurden beim Ausbau der U-Bahn-Station der Roten Linie der Los Angeles Metro Rail die Fundamente des Originalgebäudes teilweise freigelegt. Die nicht freigelegten Teile befinden sich unter dem Straßenpflaster, ihre Lage ist dekorativ markiert. Die Sammlung umfasst Stücke von der spanischen Missionszeit (1769–1833) bis zur Zeit des Amerikanischen Bürgerkrieges (1861–1865), insbesondere die Urkunde des Vertrages von Cahuenga und Artefakte aus dem Besitz von Frémont und Pico.
