# Johan Samuel Rosensvärd

Johan Samuel Rosensvärd (July 31, 1782 – December 10, 1818) was a Swedish military officer and colonial administrator who served as governor of Saint Barthélemy from 1816 to 1818, the only Swedish colony in the West Indies at the time.

## Biography

Born to Carl Reinhold Pettersén and Lovisa Eleonora Rabbe, the family had been ennobled in 1781 and took the name Rosensvärd. Rosensvärd entered the military and attained the rank of major in 1814. The following year, he was promoted to lieutenant colonel.
In 1816, Rosensvärd was appointed governor of Saint Barthélemy, a position he held until his death. Displeased with the conditions of the governor's residence and the government secretary's house, located on what is now Rue du Roi Oscar II, Rosensvärd requested extensive renovations for these facilities. He also acquired ten slaves and five servants for his household.
His health worsened in 1818, and he was temporarily relieved of his duties as governor. On the advice of his physician, he travelled to Nevis for treatment after contracting tuberculosis. There, he succumbed to his illness and is believed to be resting in an unmarked grave.
Rosensvärd married Kristina Sofia Appelquist in 1815, and the couple had a son, Johan Henrik Rosensvärd [sv], who later served as Minister of War from 1877 to 1880.

# Douglas County Speedway

Douglas County Speedway is a 0.375 mi (0.604 km) dirt motorsport race track in the United States. The track is part of the Douglas County Fairgrounds, located right off of Interstate 5 in Roseburg, Oregon.
It mostly hosts late model racing, sprint car racing, and other local-level racing events throughout the year, which are held on a weekly basis on Saturdays from May through September. The track is also used for rodeo and monster truck events. The biggest event the track has hosted is the ARCA Menards Series West (formerly the NASCAR K&N Pro Series West), which has held 18 races at the track. The first was in 1966, and the most recent was in 2020.
Due to its small size, the infield is empty (only a patch of grass) and pit road is located outside the track behind the backstretch. The entrance to pit road is located in turn 2, with the exit back onto the track in turn 3.

## Track history

The track was named Roseburg Speedway in 1960 and it featured a Hard Top class.
On August 14, 2021, the track hosted the Outlaw 100, a Pacific Racing Association race. The race featured a two-car crash that led to one of the cars almost breaking through the wall and falling off the racetrack and into the track's parking lot. The driver was injured in the crash and taken to the nearby Mercy Medical Center hospital. Because of the heavy damage to the wall, the race ended after only completing 50 of the scheduled 100 laps. One of the drivers in the race was former part-time NASCAR Cup Series and NASCAR West Series driver Brandon Ash, a resident of the track's town of Roseburg.

## Events
### NASCAR

Douglas County Speedway hosted the NASCAR/ARCA West Series 18 times on three separate stints. The first was from 1966 to 1971, although there was no race there in 1967 and 1970. The second was from 2002 to 2010, and the most recent was from 2016 to 2020. The track was removed from the West Series schedule in 2021, partly because the schedule was condensed from 11 races to 9. Multiple time winners include: Jack McCoy (2), Austin Cameron (2), Eric Holmes (3), and Derek Kraus (2). Hershel McGriff, Peyton Sellers, Brian Ickler, Ryan Partridge, Todd Gilliland and Blaine Perkins have also won at the track. The NASCAR Northwest Series held races at the track in 1985, 1998, and 1999.
# James Moore (engineer)

James Moore (1826–1887) was an engineer responsible for the first steam-powered railway to operate in Australia.

## Early life

James Moore was born in 1826 in England. He was a nephew of Sir William Cubitt, under whom he was engaged on the South Eastern and Great Northern railways, and probably learnt his trade there. In due course he qualified as a Chartered Engineer. He moved to Australia in the early 1850s.

## Melbourne and Hobson's Bay Railway Company

In March 1854, Moore was appointed as Chief Engineer of the Melbourne and Hobson's Bay Railway Company which, six months later, opened the first steam-powered railway in Australia. It was reported that he was a man "of whose abilities rumour speaks favourably". He succeeded William Snell Chauncy, who had resigned the engineership of the line under a cloud as the work on the railway pier had proven useless. Moore was responsible for completing the railway line between the city and Sandridge, and the main deep-water pier on Hobson's Bay at Sandridge. He can also be credited with the first locomotive in the Australian colonies when he attached a pile driving steam engine to one of the heavy railway trucks, to assist in construction of the line.
At the opening of the line in September 1854, he was presented with an engraved watch with the inscription: "James Moore, Esq. Engineer of the Melbourne & Hobson's Bay Railway by the Commissioners as a token of their esteem and in commemoration of his having opened the first Railway in the Australian Colonies Sept. 12th 1854". However, not long after this he was replaced on 12 December 1854, by William Elsdon, possibly due to some perceived incompetence.

## Later career

Little is known of Moore's later career. However, he was described as being a civil engineer of the Railway Department in Sydney for many years; one specific role was superintending civil engineering works on the southern extension of the New South Wales Great Southern Railway into the town of Goulburn, the contractors having failed to fulfil their obligations concerning securities. He was also noted as having been resident engineer of the Windsor and Richmond Railway.
Moore established a sugar plantation from about 1870 at a property he called "Jesswoolgan", near Alstonville, about 16 kilometres (10 miles) east of Lismore. After more than a decade he experienced heavy losses and moved into Lismore, becoming the Town Engineer. In March 1886 an alderman gave notice of a motion to dispense with his services, but when considered by the council on 29 March the motion was lost on the casting vote of the mayor. He resigned 18 days later, on 15 April, citing ill health.

## Death

James Moore died at his home in South Lismore on 19 November 1887 of diabetes, leaving a wife and adult children. He was interred at the Church of England Cemetery at Wilson's Ridges, Lismore. His death notice described him as "...one who was always kind and affable, and whose hand was ever stretched forth to assist the needy or distressed."

# Pendant bar

A pendant bar is a large, streamlined, fluvial bar that is typically composed of gravel which occurs just downstream of a bedrock obstruction within a river channel or floodway that has been scoured by either an outburst flood, megaflood, or jökulhlaup. They are often associated with giant current ripples. Malde introduced this to refer to streamlined mounds of gravel deposited by the Bonneville Flood that lie downstream of bedrock projections on the scoured valley floor of the Snake River. They are most common type of bar found within the Channeled Scablands created by the Missoula floods. The obstruction for the initiation of pendant bars in the Channeled Scablands is typically either a knob of basalt or the relict bend of a pre-flood meandering valley.
In the Channeled Scablands the larger pendant bars in are up to 2 kilometers (1.2 mi) long and rise 30 m (98 ft) above the floors of the preflood valleys. The bar surfaces lie 30–60 m (98–197 ft) below the high-water surface at the time of their formation. During regular annual floods in Central Texas and elsewhere, much smaller, analogous, mid-channel bars form downstream from river channel obstructions, e.g. large boulders of rockfall, or in the lee of barriers of stable trees and logjams.

## Occurrence

Pendant bars are associated with the deposits and landforms formed by outburst floods and megafloods on both Earth and Mars. In addition to the Channeled Scablands and the valley of the Snake River, pendant bars have been reported from deposits of the formed by the Maumee Torrent in the Maumee River valley of Indiana; the southern spillway of glacial Lake Agassiz; the Souris spillway near Elcott, Saskatchewan; and Ares Vallis, one of the largest cataclysmic flood channels on Mars.

## Internal structure

The pendant bars studied within the Channeled Scablands are composed of well-developed foreset beds. These foreset beds always dips downstream. They consist either of well-sorted subrounded boulders and cobbles or granules and pebbles with an openwork structure. The boulders and cobbles typically exhibit numerous percussion flake scars. Also, many of the rounded boulders and cobbles are broken into fragments that Bretz called broken rounds.

## Origin

Pendant bars form as high-velocity floodwater moves around an obstruction. There, pendant bars accumulate in a zone of localized flow expansion and deceleration downstream of any obstacle which lies within the main flow path. A similar process forms a sand splay, which is much like a shoal but is formed on floodplains or terraces in lower-intensity flooding episodes. Other related fluvial bars that are formed by outburst floods and jökulhlaups are longitudinal, expansion, and eddy bars.
# 1884 Scottish Cup final

The 1884 Scottish Cup Final was scheduled to be the 11th final of the Scottish Cup and the final of the 1883–84 Scottish Cup, the most prestigious knockout football competition in Scotland. Six-time winners Queen's Park were due to face three-time winners Vale of Leven at Cathkin Park in Crosshill (today part of Glasgow) on 23 February 1884.
Following a bereavement, illness and injury, Vale of Leven requested that the match be postponed but this was refused by the SFA. In protest, Vale of Leven did not appear for the final. A subsequent meeting of an SFA committee narrowly decided to award the cup to Queen's Park rather than reorganising the final.

## Background

Queen's Park had reached the final on six previous occasions and had gone on to lift the trophy each time, most recently in 1882.
Runners-up in 1883, Vale of Leven reached the final for the second season in succession. This was their fifth appearance in the final and they had previously won the competition three times consecutively between 1877 and 1879.
Prior to the final, Queen's Park and Vale of Leven were the most successful teams in the competition having lifted the trophy in nine of the previous 10 seasons between them. However, they had only met twice previously in the competition. Queen's Park won 2–1 on their way to winning the trophy in 1875–76 before Vale of Leven recorded a 2–1 on their way to winning the cup the following season.

| Fifth round replay | Arthurlie | 3–1 |
| Quarter-final | Pollokshields Athletic | 4–2 |
| Semi-final | Rangers | 3–0 |

## Match details

As a result of a bereavement, illness and injury, three of Vale of Leven's players were set to miss the final. As "to play without these members of the team would mean certain defeat", Vale appealed to the SFA on the Wednesday before the final to have the match postponed but this was refused. The club then asked opponents Queen's Park to agree to a postponement but failed to notify them of their situation. With no reason to postpone the game and an upcoming FA Cup final, Queen's Park refused and the game was expected to go ahead as planned.
After Vale failed to appear for the final, an SFA committee was tasked with deciding what should happen next. Chaired by the president of the SFA - a Queen's Park man - the committee decided by seven votes to six to award the cup to Queen's Park rather than reorganising the match. Following the decision, there were reports in the press that the SFA should be renamed the "Queen’s Park and Rangers Association" because of a perceived Glasgow bias.
