# Robert Delafield Rands

Robert Delafield Rands (1890–1970) was an American agronomist and mycologist. He served as chief director of Agriculture Office of Rubber Plant Investigations in the United States Department of Agriculture.

## Biography

Rands was born in 1890. His Ph.D. thesis at the University of Wisconsin was in the field of plant pathology. In research in Indonesia, he showed that "brown bast" in Hevea species was a result of phloem necrosis due to tapping of the trees for latex. Rands met Minnie Frost, then a graduate student at the University of Chicago, in a field trip to the Rocky Mountains of Colorado. A year later they married in Frost's home town of Louisville, Kentucky on December 25, 1914. Minnie Frost Rands wrote a book about her experiences in the places the couple traveled to.
After returning to the United States, Rands worked for the United States Department of Agriculture into diseases of sugar cane, and then at the beginning of World War II returned to study of rubber plants. He later became head of Rubber Investigations Office. On his retirement in 1954, he moved to Lake Wales, Florida and acted as a consultant for the then B. F Goodrich Company's establishment of rubber plantations in the Philippines and Africa.
Rands was a fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, the American Phytopathological Society, and the Washington Academy of Sciences. He was a member of the Sigma Xi honor society. Rands died 10 December 1970 in Lake Wales. In an obituary he was described as a leading authority on diseases of sugar cane and rubber plants.

# Connecticut Route 33

Route 33 is a 14.41-mile (23.19 km), secondary north–south state highway in the U.S. state of Connecticut, from Westport to Ridgefield.

## Route description

Route 33 begins at an intersection with Route 136 and I-95 in Westport. It heads north, intersecting with US 1, Route 57, and Merritt Parkway (Route 15) before crossing into Norwalk. Route 33 barely crosses the northeastern corner of Norwalk before continuing into Wilton. Where it passes through the Wilton Center Historic District.
In Wilton, Route 33 heads northwest, crossing Route 53 before joining US 7 and Route 106, in that order, to form a triple concurrency. Route 106 leaves the concurrency shortly after joining, and US 7 and Route 33 continue northwest for approximately another mile before US 7 turns off to the north. Route 33 continues northwest and west before turning north into Ridgefield.
In Ridgefield, Route 33 continues north to end at an intersection with Route 35.
In Wilton, Route 33 is a Scenic Route known as Ridgefield Road from Old Ridgewood Road #1 to the Ridgefield town line.

## History

Route 33 was commissioned in 1932 from parts of former 1920s state highways 304 and 176. In 1967, the northern end was truncated from New York state line to the intersection with modern Route 116 in Ridgefield. In 1978, the concurrency with Route 35 was deleted and the northern end truncated from Route 116 to its current location at Route 35.

## Junction list

The entire route is in Fairfield County.

# Seán Mór Ó Dubhagáin

Seán Mór Ó Dubhagáin (died 1372) was an Irish Gaelic poet.

## Background

Ó Dubhagáinn was among the first notable members of the bardic family Baile Uí Dhubhagáin (Ballyduggan), near Loughrea, County Galway. He was accorded the rank ollamh seanchai (professional historian) to the Uí Maine recorded Irish clan history up until the Norman invasion of Ireland.

## His work

Ó Dubhagáin's most important work is Triallam timcheall na Fodla, a compilation of verse, giving the names of the various tribes, dynasties and territories of the Irish, and the various chiefs before the coming of the Normans. He devotes 152 lines to Meath, 354 to Ulster, 328 to Connacht, and only 56 to Leinster, possibly unfinished at his death.
Triallam is notable, in that he writes as though the Norman invasion never occurred, and as if many of the families listed still occupied their original territories. This, however, may reflect his interest as an antiquarian preserving ancient lore.
His contemporary, Giolla na Naomh Ó hUidhrín (died 1420), completed it. In Cambrensis Eversus, John Lynch says that he could not find "any better source than this remarkable poem" concerning the chief Irish families before the coming of the English. Ó Dubhagáin was the author of several other extant poems, all more or less in the nature of a memoria technica, valuable chiefly for their facts about the kings of Ireland and of the provinces. They include:
* Righnaid Laigean Clan Cathaoir, on the families descended from King Cathair Mór of Leinster.
* Cashil cathain clana Mogh, a catalogue of the kings of Cashel from c.300 to 1367.
At least three other poems by him are extant, amounting to several hundreds of verses.
He also composed several rules for determining moveable feasts.
He was the teacher of Adhamh Ó Cianáin, who composed Leabhar Adhamh Ó Cianáin, in or about the 1340s. Ó Cianáin stated that he wrote it by and for himself, and out of a book of his teacher.

## Death and place of burial

Ó Dubhagáin made a pilgrimage to St. Columba’s tomb and lived the rest of his life at a monastery on Loughrea, although other sources state he died at the monastery of Boyle in County Roscommon.

## Others of the Name

The surname is generally now rendered Dugan. Notables of the name include:
* Patrick Duggan (10 November 1813 – 15 August 1896) Roman Catholic Bishop of Clonfert.
* Tomás Bacach Ó Dúgáin, (fl. 1848–1858), scribe.
* Maolsheachlainn Ó Dúgáin, (fl. mid-19th century), scribe.
* Liam Ó Dúgáin, (fl. mid-19th century), scribe.
* Winston Dugan, 1st Baron Dugan of Victoria (1876–1951), son of a Dugan of County Galway.
* Seánie Duggan (born 1922), retired Irish sportsman.
* Jeremiah Duggan (1980–2003), British student who died in disputed circumstances linked to the LaRouche movement.

# 1912 Democratic Party presidential primaries

From March 19 to June 4, 1912, voters of the Democratic Party elected delegates to the 1912 Democratic National Convention for the purpose of choosing a nominee for president in the 1912 election.
The primaries were inconclusive, with Speaker of the House Champ Clark holding a lead over Woodrow Wilson, but neither candidate close to the two-thirds of the delegates necessary to secure the nomination. In third place, Ohio governor Judson Harmon boasted the support of his home state and New York, the largest single delegation. House Majority Leader Oscar Underwood had strong support from the Deep South but little appeal outside the region.
At the convention, Wilson eventually secured the nomination over Clark after forty back-and-forth ballots.

KWNR airs a country music radio format and is owned by iHeartMedia, Inc. The radio studios and offices are on Freemont Street in Las Vegas, a mile west of the Strip. On weekdays, KWNR carries two nationally syndicated country music programs, The Bobby Bones Show in morning drive time and After Midnite with Granger Smith heard overnight.
KWNR has an effective radiated power (ERP) of 100,000 watts, currently the maximum for FM stations. The transmitter is on Black Mountain in Henderson. KWNR broadcasts using HD Radio technology. The HD-2 digital subchannel plays classic country music. The HD-3 subchannel carries a regional Mexican format known as "La Campensina 96.7" which feeds FM translator K244EX at 96.7 MHz.

## History

The station first signed on the air on July 18, 1972. It was a non-commercial, non-profit Christian radio station known as KILA. When KILA moved to another frequency in 1985, the short-lived KYYX began. It was a country station designed to compete with country music leader KFMS (101.9 FM). KYYX floundered after two years: in 1987, 95.5 switched to hot adult contemporary KLSQ (Q95).
In 1989, the station switched its call sign to KWNR and was known as "Winner 95.5". "Winner 95.5" lasted about a year before switching to "New Country 95.5" in September 1990. In 2004, "New Country" was dropped and the station was known as 95.5 KWNR. The "New Country" label came back in the summer of 2006. Streaming began November 17, 2005.
On September 20, 2013, KWNR rebranded as "95.5 The Bull".
KWNR's HD2 subchannel added coverage of Athletics baseball games in 2025, in anticipation of the team's move into the Las Vegas area in 2028.

# Francis Newton Parsons

Francis Newton Parsons VC (23 March 1875 in Dover – 10 March 1900) was educated at Dover College, joined the Essex Regiment and served in the Second Boer War. He was an English recipient of the Victoria Cross, the highest and most prestigious award for gallantry in the face of the enemy that can be awarded to British and Commonwealth forces.

## Military career

Parsons was a chorister educated at King's College School, Cambridge, from where he proceeded to Dover College, and then to the Royal Military College, Sandhurst. On graduation he was commissioned as a second lieutenant in the Essex Regiment on 28 February 1896. He was promoted to lieutenant on 1 March 1898.
Parsons was a 24 years old Lieutenant in the 1st Battalion, Essex Regiment, British Army, when he was awarded the VC during the Second Boer War. He was recommended for the award by Lieutenant-General Kelly-Kenny, C.B. with the citation published in the London Gazette of 20 November 1900:
   THE Queen has been graciously pleased to award the decoration of the Victoria Cross to the undermentioned Officer, whose claims have been submitted for Her Majesty's approval, for his conspicuous bravery during the engagement at Paardeberg, as stated against his name : —
   Essex Regiment, Lieutenant Francis Newton Parsons (since deceased)

   This Officer was recommended for the Victoria Cross by Lieutenant-General Kelly-Kenny, C.B. on 3rd March latt.
   Lieutenant Parsons was killed on the 10 March, in the engagement at Driefontein, on which occasion he again displayed conspicuous gallantry.
