Jean Sebastien Roy, also known as JSR, is a Canadian professional motocross rider and has won 5 CMRC Canadian National Motocross Championships dating from 2001-2005.He was born and raised in Acton Vale, Quebec.Roy competed in the USA as a privateer for a number of years, where he raced both the AMA Motocross and Supercross classes. His strongest AMA season was 1998, where he finished 9th overall for the season as a full privateer Kawasaki rider. Unfortunately, Roy was unable to secure a full factory ride after that, and switched between several private Honda teams. In 2001, after having a lackluster season in the US, he decided to become fully dedicated to the Canadian National Series (CMRC).Since his return to Canada, JSR has won his 5 consecutive 250 championships, as well as a handful of Montreal Supercrosses. Roy has proven extremely competitive during his part-time forays in the AMA championship, regularly showing top 10 speed on production-based, 2-stroke equipment.In an intense championship battle, Roy lost the 2006 MX1 championship to his Blackfoot Honda teammate Dusty Klatt, but finished ahead of teammate and longtime rival Blair Morgan. Both racers were on Honda CRF450 four stroke machines, and it was the first season on one for both.With defending champion Klatt moving to the US to pursue AMA racing, Roy enters 2007 as the odds-on favorite for an unprecedented 6th National title. His team, Blackfoot Motorsports based in Calgary, AB, will field Yamaha motorcycles after six very successful seasons with Honda.2001 CMRC 250 National Champion2002 CMRC 250 National Champion2003 CMRC 250 National Champion2004 CMRC 250 National Champion2005 CMRC MX1 National ChampionDuring the 2007 season, Roy suffered some bike problems and injuries that set him back to 5th in the standings. His plans for next season are not known yet.He was in 3rd place at the Quebec Motorcross championship on May 23, 2009.

Jean Romilly (27 June 1714 – 16 February 1796) was an 18th-century Swiss watchmaker, journalist and encyclopédiste.Born in a family which took refuge in Switzerland following the Edict of Fontainebleau, Romilly became known by various improvements he made to his art. He realized, among other remarkable works, a watch that could go a whole year without being winded, but he left Ferdinand Berthoud the honor to give his invention the required degree of accuracy.Romilly was one of the founders of the Journal de Paris in 1777, and one editor of the Encyclopédie by Diderot and d’Alembert, to which he contributed articles on the theoretical part of watchmaking. His manuscripts contain an incredible number of spelling and punctuation mistakes.His son, theologian Jean-Edme Romilly also collaborated with the Encyclopédie. His daughter, Jeanne, was general Cavaignac's grandmother.

Jean Senebier (May 6, 1742 – July 22, 1809) was a Swiss pastor and naturalist. He was born in Geneva, the son of a wealthy merchant. He wrote extensively on plant physiology and was one of the major early pioneers of photosynthesis research. Senebier also published on the experimental method, first in 1775, and then in an expanded work, in 1802. His precise definition of the experimental method anticipated the work of noted French physiologist Claude Bernard fifty years later. Senebier also served as chief librarian of the Republic of Geneva.Senebier was greatly influenced by Swiss naturalist Charles Bonnet. Senebier was also influenced by the Italian animal physiologist and experimental biologist Lazzaro Spallanzani, several of whose works Senebier translated from Italian into French. Spallanzani's chemical research on bodily functions of animals helped lead Senebier towards studying plant chemistry. Although Senebier's first research on plants was a large study on effects of light, he is remembered mainly for the extensive evidence he provided that carbon dioxide ("fixed air" or "carbonic acid," in the terminology of his day) is consumed by plants in the production of oxygen ("dephlogisticated air"), in the physiological process that later became known as photosynthesis. Senebier also found that the amount of oxygen produced is roughly proportional to the amount of carbon dioxide available to the plant. Further, he determined that the green fleshy parts of leaves (the parenchyma) are the sites where carbon dioxide is transformed into oxygen. Senebier also correctly concluded that plants use the carbon in carbon dioxide as a nutriment. Senebier did some of his research jointly with fellow Swiss naturalist François Huber.Senebier arrived at his best known achievement, his demonstration that plants take up atmospheric carbon dioxide and give off oxygen, based entirely on the phlogiston theory of chemistry, and only in his later works did he reformulate his conclusions in terms of the more modern, oxygen chemistry developed by Antoine Lavoisier and colleagues. This discovery by Senebier regarding gases ranks as one of the last of the important early discoveries in the unraveling of the fundamental chemical processes of photosynthesis. Marcello Malpighi and Nehemiah Grew, working independently in the late seventeenth century, and Stephen Hales in the early eighteenth century, had provided evidence that the atmosphere was important to plants, but further progress in understanding the role of gases in plant physiology awaited discoveries made between 1750 and 1780. In 1754, Charles Bonnet reported that leaves that were plunged in aerated water produced bubbles of gas, but he did not identify the gas. Then, in 1775, English chemist Joseph Priestley discovered oxygen (which he named "dephlogisticated air"), and, just a few years later, in 1779, Dutch physician and researcher Jan Ingen-Housz demonstrated that the bubbles of gas observed by Bonnet on submerged leaves consisted of this same gas. Ingen-Housz also published the first convincing evidence that leaves produce this gas only in sunlight.Senebier was a close friend of noted Genevan geologist and meteorologist Horace-Bénédict de Saussure and was instrumental in the education of Horace-Bénédict's son Nicolas-Théodore de Saussure. Senebier trained the young man in Lavoisier's system of chemistry, which Nicolas-Théodore later applied in important plant-nutrition studies of his own. The younger Saussure would eventually discover the role of water in photosynthesis, thus completing the early chemical research on this subject.In April 1809, Senebier became a Correspondent of the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences.For more detailed information on Senebier, see Kottler and Nash.The standard botanical author abbreviation Seneb. is applied to species Senebier described.
