La Collette Power Station. La Collette Power Station is the main power station for Jersey, and is now the main control centre for the Channel Islands Electricity Grid. It is operated by Jersey Electricity (JE). Under normal circumstances the power generation facilities served as an emergency supply in case of power interruption, however the failure of undersea cables in 2012 temporarily returned La Collette's role to full-time generation.

The States of Jersey's waste-to-energy incinerator was built next to La Collette and shares its water supply and chimney.

History
The power station was commissioned in 1966 to relieve Queen’s Road, which by then was struggling to keep up with demand. It was initially based on Mirrlees diesel engines and Parsons steam turbines. In 1991 two Sulzer 16ZA40S diesel engines were installed replacing the older Mirrlees engines. In 2012 the last Mirrlees 5MW diesel engines were decommissioned and replaced by two newer and more efficient 11MW Sulzer engines.

In 1985 a 55MW supply cable to France was installed to access low carbon imported power. A second 90MW cable was installed in 2000. With the increase in imported power, parts of the La Collette plant were decommissioned. In 2012, the 1985 cable came to end of its working life and was taken out of service, La Collette was re-mobilised to full generating capacity to supplement the limited imports from just one interconnector for two and half years until September 2014 when the installation of a third cable to France restored full capacity and La Collette was once again stood down to standby mode.

The power station also supports the neighbouring energy-from-waste (EfW) plant since it opened in March 2011 by sharing its infrastructure with the government-owned facility. This includes two flues in the power station’s chimney, sea-water cooling, gas oil supply and storage facilities and, very importantly, water from a reverse-osmosis plant that produces the ultra-clean water necessary for use in the boilers to produce steam.

Up to 8MW of electricity produced by the EfW plant is sold back to Jersey Electricity and provides further diversification of generation sources.

Specification
Based on figures in a JE leaflet the La Collette power station can produce around 79 MW.

La Collette power station contains: 
 4 Sulzer Diesel 16ZA40S engines producing 11 MW each (two installed 1991, two 2012) 
 1 Sulzer Diesel 8ZAL40S engine producing 5MW (installed 2018)
 1 Rolls-Royce Olympus gas turbine producing 30 MW (installed 2003)
Two of the five Sulzer engines were bought second hand from Saudi Arabia in early 2012, and were installed as part of a £9 million deal.

Lumosity. Lumosity is an online program consisting of games claiming to improve memory, attention, flexibility, speed of processing, and problem solving.

History
Lumos Labs was founded in 2005 by Kunal Sarkar, Michael Scanlon, and David Drescher. Lumosity.com launched in 2007 and, as of January 2015, has 70 million members.

Financials
The company raised $400,000 in capital from angel investors in 2007, a Series A of $3 million from Harrison Metal Capital, FirstMark Capital and Norwest Venture Partners in 2008, a Series C of $32.5 million led by Menlo Ventures, and a Series D of $31.5 million led by Discovery Communications with participation from existing investors.

Effectiveness and legal history
On January 5, 2016, Lumos Labs agreed to a $50 million settlement (reduced to $2 million subject to financial verification) to the Federal Trade Commission over claims of false advertising for their product. The Commission found that Lumosity's marketing "preyed on consumers' fears about age-related cognitive decline, suggesting their games could stave off memory loss, dementia, and even Alzheimer's disease", without providing any scientific evidence to back its claims. The company was ordered not to make any claims that its products can "[improve] performance in school, at work, or in athletics" or "[delay or protect] against age-related decline in memory or other cognitive function, including mild cognitive impairment, dementia, or Alzheimer's disease", or "[reduce] cognitive impairment caused by health conditions, including Turner syndrome, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), traumatic brain injury (TBI), stroke, or side effects of chemotherapy", without "competent and reliable scientific evidence".

There is no good medical evidence to support claims that memory training helps people improve cognitive functioning.

East Park Dam. East Park Dam is an agricultural irrigation dam and reservoir built by the United States Bureau of Reclamation, on Little Stony Creek, about  southwest of Orland, California on the northern end of the California Central Valley.

The dam was completed in . Its main structure is a curved, thick-arch concrete gravity dam,  high, with two sluice gates.  The control house is in the shape of a pagoda, and the spillway, about  south of the dam on the western side of the reservoir, features an eccentric set of curved labyrinth-spillway fins. The reservoir has a storage capacity of .

The California Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (OEHHA) has developed an advisory for the East Park Reservoir based on mercury and PCBs found in fish caught from this water body. The advisory provides safe eating advice for species caught in the body of water.

The Orland Project
The East Park dam and reservoir was one element of the Orland Project in the area, one of the earliest, and one of the smallest, ever undertaken by the Bureau.  Other components of the project include:

 the 1928 Stony Gorge Dam and Reservoir, on Stony Creek about 18 miles downstream from East Park Dam, an early example of an Ambursen-type dam
 the 1914 Rainbow Diversion Dam
 the 1913 Northside Diversion Dam, rebuilt in the 1950s
 and a canal and distribution system with 17 miles of canals and 117 miles of lateral connections

Still functioning, the local Orland Unit Water Users' Association has operated the project since October 1, 1954. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in the 1980s.

Climate
According to the Köppen Climate Classification system, East Park Reservoir has a hot-summer mediterranean climate, abbreviated "Csa" on climate maps. The hottest temperature recorded at East Park Reservoir was  on July 20, 1988 and July 30, 2003, while the coldest temperature recorded was  on December 11, 1932.

WAGR R class (diesel). The R Class are diesel locomotives built by English Electric, Rocklea for the Western Australian Government Railways in 1968. They were followed by the revised RA class.

Description
The R class were a hood type general purpose diesel-electric locomotive. They were similar to the Queensland Railways 1300 class. All equipment, except traction motors, were interchangeable with the standard gauge K class. 
The bogies are an English Electric design with low weight transfer characteristics. They feature fully equalised primary spring gear, all traction motors in each bogie mounted with the nose-suspension facing inwards, traction thrust at near axle level and long pivot centres to reduce inter-bogie transfer. Adhesion loss at maximum tractive effort is limited to 4.5 per cent allowing  trailing load to be hauled up a 1 in 100 grade.

History
In 1968 the Western Australian Government Railways took delivery of five narrow gauge versions of the K class for use on bauxite traffic, the last three being fitted with  of ballast to improve their tractive effort. All were fitted with dynamic brakes.

History Of Aeroplane Service 
The airline was formed in 1936 and initially served routes on the Kathiawar Peninsula and to Poona. with aircraft like the de Havilland Dragonfly, Airspeed Courier, Percival Vega Gulls and de Havilland Fox Moth. In the beginning of 1939, it opened a new line between Kolhapur and the Juhu Aerodrome. The thrice-a-week service was officially inaugurated by the Maharaja of Kolhapur, who showed considerable interest in the project and subsidised the service and built an airport at Kolhapur. 

In 1941, Air Services of India was purchased by The Scindia Steam Navigation Company Ltd. and became known as the Scindia line. Services resumed on 3 May 1946 after World War II with a small fleet of De Havilland Dragon Rapides and 11 former United States Air Force Douglas C-47 Skytrains converted for civilian use. Air Services of India was the only airline using the French-built Sud-Ouest Corse for civilian purposes, having two of them in their fleet. By 1953, when the Air Corporations Act was passed, it had an extensive network from Cochin to Lucknow and became Line 7 of the Indian Airlines Corporation.
