Debris

Debris or débris (UK: /ˈdɛbriː/ or /ˈdeɪbriː/; US: /dᵻˈbriː/) is rubble, wreckage, ruins, litter and discarded garbage/refuse/trash, scattered remains of something destroyed, discarded, or as in geology, large rock fragments left by a melting glacier etc. Depending on context, debris can refer to a number of different things. The first apparent use of the French word in English is in a 1701 description of the army of Prince Rupert upon its retreat from a battle with the army of Oliver Cromwell, in England.

Disaster

In disaster scenarios, Tornado leave behind large pieces of houses and mass destruction overall. This debris also flies around the tornado itself when it's in progress. The tornado's winds capture debris it kicks up in it's wind orbit, and spins it inside it's vortex. The tornado's wind radius is larger than the funnel itself. In fact some studies suggest that in EF-5 tornadoes, the radius of the tornado could be classified as a new EF-6 tornado. Tsunamis and hurricanes also bring large amounts of debris. Such as Hurricane Katrina in 2005 and Hurricane Sandy in 2012. Earthquakes rock cities to rubble debris. Overall natural disasters can be very difficult to recover from. But in the end, we can always pull through what Mother Nature throws at us.

Debris (play)

Debris is an in-yer-face play by Dennis Kelly. It was first produced at the Latchmere Theatre (now Theatre 503) in London in 2003, before being transferred to Battersea Arts Centre the next year.

A one-act play where a brother and sister try to make sense of their dysfunctional childhood. The pair lie about their past creating new elaborate past stories, the central narrative is of the brother, Michael, who finds a baby who he names Debris trying to keep him a secret and alive from his alcoholic father confiding only in Michelle his sister who is fascinated with their mother's death and gives several contradicting stories of how she died.

In the first scene the brother describes coming home to see his father who has committed suicide by crucifixion. Kelly has said "I was brought up a Catholic, so, like every decent Catholic, as a child I fantasised about being crucified - it must have come from there"

Kelly original had problems getting Debris produced until approaching Theatre 503 "The play had been rejected by pretty much every other theatre around but 503 saw something in the play and decided to abandon common sense and produce it. For me it was one of the most important moments in my life"

Sweep (horse)

Sweep (foaled 1907 in Kentucky) was an American Thoroughbred racehorse.

Background

Sweep was bred by James R. Keene. He was sired by Kentucky Derby winner Ben Brush out of the Domino mare Pink Domino. he was trained by James Rowe.

Sweep was a champion two-year-old with a long stride. He placed second in the Hopeful Stakes and the Saratoga Special Stakes before he won the Futurity Stakes by over half a dozen lengths under a tight hold.

Racing at three, with jockey James H. Butwell aboard, Sweep won the 1910 Belmont Stakes in a time of 2:22 when the race was contested at 1 3/8 miles. He was the favorite at 1 to 10 odds and won by six lengths over the only other starter, Duke of Ormonde. It was one of only five times in the history of the stakes race that just two horses have been entered.

Retirement

Retired to Keene's Castleton Farm, Sweep was the leading sire by earnings in 1918 and again in 1925. He was a great sire and broodmare sire, with three daughters that produced Kentucky Derby winners. They were Beaming Beauty, dam of Bubbling Over; Brushup, dam of War Admiral; and Dust Whirl, dam of Whirlaway. Both War Admiral and Whirlaway became Triple Crown champions.
