Metcalf Energy Center

The Metcalf Energy Center is a 605 megawatt combined cycle power plant located in Silicon Valley, located in unincorporated Coyote Valley, south of San Jose, California and north of Morgan Hill, California. The power plant is owned by Calpine and powered by natural gas. Some of the power generated by the plant is sent to far away places via Path 15, a major electrical power transmission corridor that is connected to the power plant. The power plant was the location of a sniper attack in 2013. Potential closure In June 2017, Calpine Corporation notified the California Independent System Operator (CAISO) that unless it was granted reliability-must-run (RMR) status, it intended to take the plant offline at the end of 2017. (Reliability-must-run (RMR) status is a designation that a power plant is essential for the reliability of providing needed power at times of peak demand, and/or to maintain a level of redundancy for when other power generation facilities fail.) Calpine stated that it was no longer economical to continue to run the Metcalf plant at the currently low wholesale electricity prices; the result of an electricity glut in California. The glut in wholesale prices resulted from policies which guarantee utilities like Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E), (a regulated monopoly), return on investment for building new power plants, even when they are not needed. The Los Angeles Times explains: "California has a big – and growing – glut of power, an investigation by the Los Angeles Times has found. The state's power plants are on track to be able to produce at least 21% more electricity than it needs by 2020, based on official estimates. And that doesn't even count the soaring production of electricity by rooftop solar panels that has added to the surplus." "Utilities are typically guaranteed a rate of return of about 10.5% for the cost of each new plant regardless of need. This creates a major incentive to keep construction going: Utilities can make more money building new plants than by buying and reselling readily available electricity from existing plants run by competitors." "Independents like Calpine don't have a captive audience of residential customers like regulated utilities do. Instead, they sell their electricity under contract or into the electricity market, and make money only if they can find customers for their power."

Middle Harbor Shoreline Park

Middle Harbor Shoreline Park (MHSP) is located on San Francisco Bay and the Oakland Seaport entrance channel, west of downtown Oakland, California. It is owned and operated by the Port of Oakland. The park entrance is at the intersection of 7th Street and Middle Harbor Road. It is open seven days a week from 8 a.m. to dusk. History The park is primarily on land that was the former site of the Oakland Naval Supply Depot (1940−1998), which was an important supply base for the Pacific Fleet of the U. S. Navy throughout World War II. The Naval Supply Depot closed in 1998, and the 541 acres (2.19 km2) facility was transferred to the Port of Oakland, which still owns it. The section adjacent to the Port of Oakland, which includes Port View Park, was originally part of the Oakland Long Wharf or Oakland Pier−Mole, which was the massive western terminus of the Southern Pacific Railroad into San Francisco Bay. The interlocking tower from the railroad's pier has been moved and partially restored as a small commemorative museum. The mast of the USS Oakland is displayed at the entrance of the park. Additionally, parts of the park used to be the Western Pacific Mole, a former railroad station/ferry pier of the Western Pacific Railroad. Before the WP transferred its operations to the Oakland Long Wharf, passengers could transfer from WP trains to ferries to San Francisco. The Mole was demolished in 1940, and its land is now part of the MHSP. A 38 acres (0.15 km2) area was redeveloped for the park from 2002 to 2004. Redevelopment of the land included restoration of beaches and creation of a lagoon. The park was opened to the public on September 18, 2004. Features There is an amphitheater overlooking San Francisco Bay where live entertainment performs. The Chappell R. Hayes Memorial Observation Tower, named to honor the West Oakland leader, offers good views of the Oakland Estuary and the Port's shipping activities. Interpretive signs throughout the park present the history of the site, the environmental resources here and the adjacent maritime activities. A viewing area for observing the super-Panamax cranes in operation at the adjacent Hanjin Terminal. Accessibility The following facilities are wheelchair accessible: Parking lots Restrooms Drinking fountains Picnic sites Port View Park Observation Tower Viewing area at Western Pacific Mole Rules The park is open from 8:00 a.m. to dusk 7 days a week, all year. It is closed from dusk to dawn, except for special events authorized by Park Use Permit. The park will only be closed to the public during special events. Those are conducted no more than 3 times per year, and advance notification is posted. Dogs are not allowed within the park, except that Service Dogs ON-LEASH ONLY are permitted on trails and parkland areas (Oakland Municipal Code).

Miguel Contreras Learning Complex

Miguel Contreras Learning Complex (MCLC) is a high school in the Westlake neighborhood of Los Angeles, California, United States. The school, which serves grades 9 through 12, is a part of the Los Angeles Unified School District. The school is located at 322 South Lucas Avenue, just down Third Street from the LAUSD Board of Education headquarters building. It houses three Small Learning Communities (SLCs): The Academic Leadership Community (ALC), Social Justice, and Business & Tourism (B&T), which is the largest academy. The complex also holds a separate school called the Los Angeles School Of Global Studies, a New Tech Network school with a focus on project-based learning (PBL). LASGS currently holds an API score of 591. Contreras was named after Miguel Contreras, a labor union organizer. History MCLC opened its doors for the first time on September 5, 2006. Prior to its opening, the school building project was known as Central Los Angeles Area New High School #10. The total budget for this school was over $168 million. The school took many students who were enrolled in Belmont High School and chose to transfer, as well as students who were unable to attend overcrowded local schools, and had been bussed to nearby schools throughout their entire academic careers. The three Small Learning Communities (SLCs) were originally established at Belmont High School and essentially moved their entire community (teachers and students) to the new complex. The three SLCs were Academic Learning Complex (ALC), Business and Tourism (BT) and Social Justice (SJ). This will be the protocol for other new schools in the area that will aim to relieve the overcrowding at Belmont as it transitions into a 6–12 school. President of the United States Barack Obama visited the school for a town hall meeting on March 19, 2009, where a large crowd filled the gymnasium. On January 26, 2022, a 17-year-old boy was stabbed twice during a fistfight on the third floor of the complex. He was transported to LAC+USC Medical Center in stable condition. On September 8, 2024, a student’s body was found dead in the school’s swimming pool. No further details were revealed and no cause of death was determined. Neighborhoods served Areas served by Contreras include portions of the Pico-Union and Westlake, Angelino Heights, Chinatown, Koreatown, Echo Park, and Little Tokyo areas. MCLC & LASGS and Belmont share the same attendance boundary and are separate schools which are called pilot schools. References
Mile Square Regional Park

Mile Square Regional Park is an regional park in Fountain Valley, California, United States. It includes two lakes, two 18-hole golf courses, an archery range, baseball and softball fields, picnic shelters, a 20-acre (81,000 m2) urban nature area planted with California native plants, a 55-acre (220,000 m2) recreation center with tennis courts, basketball courts, racquetball courts, a gymnasium, the Kingston Boys & Girls Club, and a community center. This regional park was built on a naval landing field soon after the city was incorporated. James Kanno, one of America's first Japanese American mayors, led the effort to create the park. The park derives its name from the near-perfect square of land that it occupies, bounded by Edinger and Warner Avenues on the north and south sides, and Brookhurst and Euclid Streets on the west and east sides, respectively. Each side measures 1 mi (1.6 km), for a total area of 1 sq mi (640 acres; 2.6 km2). History In 1942, the Navy purchased 640 acres (2.6 km2) of agricultural land for Mile Square Naval Outer Landing Field, which used as an auxiliary for Naval Air Station, Los Alamitos. Three landing fields were constructed in a triangular shape in the center of this area, with each field being approximately 2,200 feet (670 m) in length. It was used for carrier deck qualification practice by Navy aircraft. In March 1967, Orange County entered into a long-term lease with the Navy Department for the perimeter area of the site which allowed the county to develop this area for regional park purposes. Military operations in the center airfield ceased in 1974. The east section of the park has a fee to park vehicles, and is operated by OC Parks. The west section of the park is operated by the city of Fountain Valley and has free parking. The park was built in several phases: Phase I was opened with 85 acres (340,000 m2) of land in 1970 Phase II added the baseball diamond and a children's play area in 1973 Phase III extended the park northward to Edinger Avenue in 1976 Phase IV development commenced in the spring of 1987 and included the construction of an executive golf course. Facilities Sixty-two acres (25 ha) of the park have been improved over time by the City with many sports facilities. The park was selected as the site for a Vietnam War memorial to honor Vietnamese troops who worked alongside U.S. forces in Vietnam in 2023, however the project was later cancelled in 2026 following revelations that $1 million intended for the project was stolen by former Orange County Supervisor Andrew Do.

Millennium High School (California)

Millennium High School in Piedmont, California, United States is the Piedmont Unified School District's alternative high school. History Millennium High School was officially founded in 2000 and was named after the turn of the millennium. Millennium High School serves as the Alternative High School for the Piedmont Unified School District. Academics Classes are small, with about 10 to 20 students per class, so students can work at their own pace, and there is more personal attention than in a normal public high school. Credit is earned according to how much students accomplish in class, and they may also earn credits for outside activities, including sports or individual physical exercise programs, music and dramatic arts lessons and activities, employment, community college classes, and community service. The Piedmont Educational Foundation supports a number of these programs through its grants program. Millennium students can also take courses at Piedmont High. The curriculum is aligned with Content Standards for California Public Schools, and courses satisfy University of California "a-g" admission requirements. In 2005, the school received an Academic Performance Indicator (API) score of 709, matching the state average exactly. It was the first year the school received a score. The average API score of the district that year was 920, an 18-point increase from the year before. Attendance A significant difference between Millennium and Piedmont High School is that to attend PHS, a student must either prove residency in the city of Piedmont or have parents who work for the school district. Millennium is open to local students outside Piedmont, through interdistrict transfer. Millennium Falcon George Lucas, the director of the Star Wars films, granted the school the right to use the image of the Millennium Falcon on a school sweatshirt, as well as to represent the school as its mascot, effectively creating the Millennium (High School) Falcon. Zak Filler '10 wrote to Mr. Lucas to request permission to continue with the move. "I am a big Star Wars fan," Filler wrote, "a bit on the nerdy side." According to Dr. Deah Schwartz, Filler's mother and one of the parents involved in organizing the project, as of February 5, 2009, about 50 shirts in all had been sold, to a student body that totals only in the 70s.

Minor Theater

The Minor Theater, located at 1001 H Street in Arcata, California, reopened under independent ownership in 2016. It is the second oldest movie theater in the United States to be built for that purpose. (The oldest movie theater in California is the Cameo Cinema in St Helena, Napa Valley.) It was the first building in Humboldt County to be built as a "true movie theater." History The theater was built by Isaac Minor for a cost of $20,000. Ground was broken for the building of the theater on April 2, 1914, and the project was finished in November of that year, built in reinforced concrete for structural safety and fire-resistance. The grand opening was December 3, 1914. It closed in 1938 and reopened in the 50s. It closed again in the 60s due to the popularity of television and reopened again in 1972. It was closed again in 2016 and reopened a few months later. The trap door that Houdini used is still there. The orchestra had room for twelve musicians. "The stage measured 25 to 43 feet and had an upward slope of three inches to the rear and was large enough to accommodate a large theatrical company or a chorus of at least 75 people." It was purchased in 1971 from the Minor family by a group of Humboldt State University graduates, notable among them David Phillips, one of the founding students of the Humboldt Int'l Film Fest. The Arcata City Council approved renovations in January, 1989. The facility was leased by Coming Attractions Theatres in 2006. It is currently a triplex (two screens added from the adjacent commercial building) and seats 461. The Minor Theater has housed the Humboldt Int'l Film Fest since 2017.
