Talk:Costa Mesa High School/Middle School

message: Fifty years of history are missing from the article.
Perhaps one of the more notable events was the American flag-stepping incident in the 1960s.
It occurred on about Sept 28, 1966.
Donald Miller, the teacher of the English class, was perhaps making a point about symbols etc by acting it out.
There was community furor and he was dismissed as a result.
The incident received national attention.
Please find verified sources and add to the article.

Talk:Coulter pine

message: I edited this to change the sort order on the page for the :Category:Pinus.  It had been set to alphabetize under Pine.  That might make sense for categories where there are a lot of trees and a few of them are pines; then all the pines group together.  But on the page where everything is a pine, it made more sense to alphabetize under Coulter.   71.126.140.136 (talk) 10:53, 13 April 2010 (UTC)

message: This page seems to suffer from some NPOV problems, particularly the criticisms section.  Perhaps somebody can find an attributable source to the criticisms (such as the Contra Costa Times or other media outlet)?  Otherwise I think that the section should probably be deleted (this isn't to say that the criticisms aren't necessarily valid, just that in their current form they aren't appropriate for an encyclopedia).

replies: text: Someone has done some good research and cleaned up the NPOV on the criticisms section. There looks to be more good info in the report cited about lack of ridership and limited routes, etc. that could still be cited. I think that the second para about the routes is just the editor's opinion and should be removed w/o further reference. That fact that the two routes take longer really does not provide that the route is "not well planned out" just that it stops at several more places and takes ten minutes longer. --Tinned Elk 01:23, 16 August 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Courtright Reservoir

message: quote:  Wishon Reservoir, a couple of miles downstream on the Kings River, is the lower reservoir and main water source. During times of peak demand for electricity, which is also when it is most expensive, water is drained from Courtright Reservoir, run through the 1,212 MW Helms Power Plant and empties into Wishon Reservoir. When demand and prices for electricity are low, water is pumped from Wishon Reservoir to Courtright Reservoir using the power plant's reversible turbines. Helms Power Plant is 1,000 feet (300 m) underground in a chamber carved out of solid granite at the north end of Wishon Lake.
That's the conventional wisdom and local folklore, but it can't be true. The whole Wishon-Courtright-HelmsPlant complex is called the Helms Project. The underground Helms power plant drains into the Kings at or near Black Rock Reservoir (Near Sawmill Flat), in the foothills much lower than Wishon. (see maps) However, some of that folklore (oversimplification) is true.  Also omitted from the story is that the power to pump the water uphill comes from the Diablo Canyon nuclear powerplant.  (Nukes run at full-power just as cheaply as half-power.) So without Helms, that energy would be wasted. So "When demand and prices for electricity are low," more accurately is; "when electricity usage is below total electricity output."   --71.128.255.226 (talk) 00:14, 26 June 2014 (UTC)

At normal levels it has a surface area of 21 acres.  It is owned by Santa Clara Valley Water District.  Its height is 13 feet with a length of 130 feet.  Normal storage is 95 acre feet.

Most don't mention "crimson" and all prefer either "western" or "red". The article calls "red columbine" ambiguous. No doubt somewhere is another species commonly called (somewhere) red columbine, but that is precisely why we have scientific names, to avoid ambiguity.

message: I've been trying to track down the ultimate origin of the name, but have reached a bit of a dead end.  I'll give my findings here and see if anyone wants to pick it up from there.  It seems the college's construction was partially paid for by the Crown Zellerbach Foundation, a part of the paper company Crown-Zellerbach.  (http://crown.ucsc.edu/about/index.html)  That company was the result of a merger involving Crown Willamette Paper Company (http://www.nndb.com/company/779/000117428/), which was the result of a merger involving Crown Columbia Paper Company (http://www.ccrh.org/comm/camas/millhist.htm), which was the result of a merger involving Crown Paper Company (of Oregon City, OR) (same page).  That company seems to have been founded as a paper mill there in 1890 (http://www.orcity.org/planning/brief-history-oregon-city).
