Rich Rosen

Rich Rosen (born May 13, 1956) is a software developer and an author on the subject of web development, who gained notoriety as an early high-volume contributor to Usenet newsgroups.

Early life and education

Rosen grew up in Forest Hills, Queens, New York. He attended Cornell University and later Queens College, where he received a bachelor's degree in computer science. He later received his master's degree in the same subject from Stevens Institute of Technology in Hoboken, New Jersey, while working at Bell Labs and later at Bellcore.

1980s - Bell Labs and Usenet

While at Bell Labs and Bellcore (now known as Telcordia Technologies) during the 1980s, Rosen was a lead engineer on the team that beta-tested IBM's then brand-new DB2 relational database management system, which would become one of the first commercially available relational database systems on the market. He also developed one of the earliest online bulletin board systems used to keep telephone operating companies informed about Bell System software standards.

He also acquired a reputation there as a high-volume poster to Usenet newsgroups. The volume of Usenet postings he produced led to rumors that many people were actually using his account, or that he was an AI program produced by Bell Labs to increase the amount of Usenet traffic and thus augment AT&T's long distance telephone revenues.more than 2% of the entire volume of Usenet postings. The phrase "We are all Rich Rosen" was coined during this period and persisted as a Usenet catchphrase for a number of years.

Rosen posted in a number of newsgroups on a variety of topics, most particularly music and religion. Among his contributions:


Rich Rosen

* Rich Rosen's Rules of Netnews Debating, a satirical post intended not so much as a set of guidelines to follow when posting, but rather as a statement (like Godwin's Law) about the irrational and often obnoxious behavior often observed in Usenet discussions (which Rosen himself admittedly engaged in).
  * The Book of Ubizmo and the religion of Ubizmatism, a parody of the extremes associated with mainstream organized religions.
  * The story of Toejam Jawallaby, a fictitious musician who was the winner of several bogus "greatest guitarist of all time" polls, whose exploits were later expanded upon in the newsgroup rec.music.jazz.
  * Several musical compositions that appeared on the first Usenet compilation tape, a little net.music (1985), including A Fair Exchange and Vegetableland (which was ostensibly performed by the aforementioned Toejam Jawallaby).
  * Several Usenet April Fool's jokes, including the (now doubly ironic) "Microsoft Windows for the Macintosh" and the "Olfactory Transfer Protocol" (WebOdor).

He was known for participating in (some would say "inciting") numerous flame wars with other Usenet contributors, including the notorious Brahms Gang, a pair of equally loquacious mathematics graduate students from Berkeley (Gene Ward Smith and Matthew P. Wiener) who posted from a server named brahms.berkeley.edu. His verbal battles with the Brahms Gang in particular were sometimes referred to as "The War of the Rosens". He was also known for his variety of frequently-changing .signature files, including:

  * Anything's possible, but only a few things actually happen.
  * Life is complex. It has real and imaginary parts.
  * Look for significance where there's none intended, and you'll surely find it.
  * Now I've lost my train of thought, I'll have to catch the bus of thought.
  * echo "This is not a pipe." | cat - >/dev/tty

Usenet Citations and Acknowledgements

The volume and content of Rosen's postings evoked strong reactions in both advocates and detractors. People either praised him for his postings or denounced him as a threat to the future of Usenet.


Rich Rosen

* His voluminous output and frequently abrasive postings led many to seek his removal from the net. He was never actually banned, censored or otherwise prevented from posting, but his e-mail address was used on the man page for the netnews "expire" command as an example of how this command could be used to delete all postings from a particular user. The use of his address in this manner was viewed by some as an endorsement of censorship and it was eventually removed.
  * His notoriety also led Howard Rheingold to use his name in A Slice of Life in My Virtual Community (an article propagated through its inclusion in the Big Dummy's Guide to the Internet) as an example of how people use kill files: ... putting the name of a person or topic header in a ``kill file'' (aka ``bozo filter'') means you will never see future contributions from that person or about that topic. You can simply choose to not see any postings from Rich Rosen, or that feature the word ``abortion'' in the title.
  * A column by Mr. Protocol (Michael O'Brien) in Sun Expert magazine (now called Server/Workstation Expert) used the word "Rosenesque" to describe a person who produces a substantial volume of e-mail messages large enough to overwhelm a local network.
  * The Net.Legends FAQ says: How can a Net.Legends list omit Rich Rosen? I think he still holds the record for amount of spontaneous, germane text in a single newsgroup (net.philosophy).


Rich Rosen

* In contrast, one system administrator wrote an article entitled "Proposed deletion of Rich Rosen": If net.bizarre and net.flame were threats to the network's continued existence, then Rich Rosen is doubly so. ... Rich Rosen's volume is enormous. His postings comprise two percent of the network's volume. ... Expressed as a raw number of bytes per week, the number is horrendous. It is impossible for one man to produce this much cogent thought in a week. Speaking only for myself (perhaps a poor comparison) I don't think I could even type that fast. ... Due to his high volume and near-total lack of redeeming value, I propose that Rich Rosen be removed from USENET. In order to preserve the usual facade of democracy, I'm doing this as a poll. ...
  * On the other hand, an article by Thomas Richardson from 1995Rosen was particularly noteworthy, because he posted pages [and] pages of coherent material in just about every group I read. ... This was back when you could read the entire Usenet feed in a single afternoon. That doesn't explain how Rosen managed to post on every subject, though. I think he must have been a speed typist or he must have had some kind of augmented metabolism or something. ... He also managed to stay coherent and to largely avoid repeating himself. Maybe there really was no Rich Rosen. Maybe Dennis Ritchie was just playing a weird joke on everybody.


Rich Rosen

Post-Bellcore (1990s)

Rosen left Bellcore in 1989, but continued to post occasionally to Usenet from various outside accounts. He was one of the early members of the Panix user community in New York through the mid-1990s. He hosted his own popular "Monty Python home page" that was cited by both Lycos and the Global Network Navigator.

During the latter part of the 1990s, Rosen worked at Pencom Web Works with Leon Shklar, with whom he would later collaborate on Web Application Architecture: Principles, Protocols, and Practices, a widely used textbook for senior and graduate level college courses in Web application development.

Later life

Rosen lives once again in New Jersey with his wife, Celia. He "retired" from posting to Usenet but maintained his own blog, writing on the subject of web application development, including articles for various online and print journals, while also working with Leon Shklar on a second edition of Web Application Architecture. In addition, he contributed material to the fourth edition of Mac OS X for Unix Geeks which was published in 2008. He continues to record his own music, some of which was accessible on his website.

Necklace splitting problem

[a stylized picture of a necklace, with 8 red and 6 green pearls. The pearls are threaded on to an incomplete elliptical black curve that represents the string. The gap in the curve represents the clasp (open in the diagram) which may be closed when the necklace is placed around the neck. There are two short heavy lines marking breaks in the necklace string. Starting from the left, the necklace is: RRRGRBRRGRRGGBGG, where "R" means "red pearl", "G" means "green pearl", and "B" means "break". The breaks correspond to those in the text]

Example of necklace splitting with k = 2 (i.e. two partners), and t = 2 (i.e. two types of beads, here 8 red and 6 green). A 2-split is shown: one partner receives the largest section, and the other receives the remaining two pieces.

Necklace splitting is a picturesque name given to several related problems in combinatorics and measure theory. Its name and solutions are due to mathematicians Noga AlonDouglas B. West.

The basic setting involves a necklace with beads of different colors. The necklace should be divided between several partners (e.g. thieves), such that each partner receives the same amount of every color. Moreover, the number of cuts should be as small as possible (in order to waste as little as possible of the metal in the links between the beads).

Variants

The following variants of the problem have been solved in the original paper:


Necklace splitting problem

The following variants of the problem have been solved in the original paper:

 1. Discrete splitting:[{\displaystyle k\cdot n}] beads. The beads come in [t] different colors. There are [{\displaystyle k\cdot a_{i}}] beads of each color [i], where [a_{i}] is a positive integer. Partition the necklace into [k] parts (not necessarily contiguous), each of which has exactly [a_{i}] beads of color i. Use at most [{\displaystyle (k-1)t}] cuts. Note that if the beads of each color are contiguous on the necklace, then at least [k-1] cuts must be done inside each color, so [{\displaystyle (k-1)t}] is optimal.
 2. Continuous splitting:[{\displaystyle [0,k\cdot n]}]. Each point of the interval is colored in one of [t] different colors. For every color [i], the set of points colored by [i] is Lebesgue-measurable and has length [{\displaystyle k\cdot a_{i}}], where [a_{i}] is a non-negative real number. Partition the interval to [k] parts (not necessarily contiguous), such that in each part, the total length of color [i] is exactly [a_{i}]. Use at most [{\displaystyle (k-1)t}] cuts.
 3. Measure splitting:[t] different measures on the interval, all absolutely continuous with respect to length. The measure of the entire necklace, according to measure [i], is [{\displaystyle k\cdot a_{i}}]. Partition the interval to [k] parts (not necessarily contiguous), such that the measure of each part, according to measure [i], is exactly [a_{i}]. Use at most [{\displaystyle (k-1)t}] cuts. This is a generalization of the Hobby–Rice theorem, and it is used to get an exact division of a cake.

Each problem can be solved by the next problem:


Necklace splitting problem

Each problem can be solved by the next problem:

  * Discrete splitting can be solved by continuous splitting, since a discrete necklace can be converted to a coloring of the real interval [{\displaystyle [0,k\cdot n]}] in which each interval of length 1 is colored by the color of the corresponding bead. In case the continuous splitting tries to cut inside beads, the cuts can be slid gradually such that they are made only between beads.
  * Continuous splitting can be solved by measure splitting, since a coloring of an interval in [t] colors can be converted to a set [t] measures, such that measure [i] measures the total length of color [i]. The opposite is also true: measure splitting can be solved by continuous splitting, using a more sophisticated reduction.

Proof

The case [k=2] can be proved by the Borsuk-Ulam theorem.

When [k] is an odd prime number, the proof involves a generalization of the Borsuk-Ulam theorem.

When [k] is a composite number, the proof is as follows (demonstrated for the measure-splitting variant). Suppose [{\displaystyle k=p\cdot q}]. There are [t] measures, each of which values the entire necklace as [{\displaystyle p\cdot q\cdot a_{i}}]. Using [{\displaystyle (p-1)\cdot t}] cuts, divide the necklace to [p] parts such that measure [i] of each part is exactly [{\displaystyle q\cdot a_{i}}]. Using [{\displaystyle (q-1)\cdot t}] cuts, divide each part to [q] parts such that measure [i] of each part is exactly [a_{i}]. All in all, there are now [p q] parts such that measure [i] of each part is exactly [a_{i}]. The total number of cuts is [{\displaystyle (p-1)\cdot t}] plus [{\displaystyle p(q-1)\cdot t}] which is exactly [{\displaystyle (pq-1)\cdot t}].

Splitting random necklaces

In some cases, random necklaces can be split equally using fewer cuts. Mathematicians Noga Alon, Dor Elboim, Gábor Tardos and János Pach studied the typical number of cuts required to split a random necklace between two thieves.t colors and m beads of each color. As m tends to infinity, the probability that the necklace can be split using ⌊(t + 1)/2⌋ cuts or less tends to zero while the probability that it's possible to split with ⌊(t + 1)/2⌋ + 1 cuts is bounded away from zero. More precisely, letting X = X(t,m) be the minimal number of cuts required to split the necklace. The following holds as m tends to infinity. For any [{\displaystyle s<(t+1)/2}]

[{\displaystyle \mathbb {P} (X=s)=\Theta {\big (}m^{s-(t+1)/2}{\big )}.}]

For any [{\displaystyle (t+1)/2<s\leq t}]

[{\displaystyle \mathbb {P} (X=s)=\Theta (1).}]

Finally, when [t] is odd and [{\displaystyle s=(t+1)/2}]

[{\displaystyle \mathbb {P} (X=s)=\Theta {\big (}(\log m)^{-1}{\big )}.}]

One can also consider the case in which the number of colors tends to infinity. When m=1 and the t tends to infinity, the number of cuts required is at most 0.4t and at least 0.22t with high probability. It is conjectured that there exists some 0.22 < c < 0.4 such that X(t,1)/t converges to c in distribution.

One cut fewer than needed


Necklace splitting problem

One cut fewer than needed

In the case of two thieves [i.e. k = 2] and t colours, a fair split would require at most t cuts. If, however, only t − 1 cuts are available, Hungarian mathematician Gábor Simonyi

If the necklace is arranged so that no t-split is possible, then for any two subsets D1 and D2 of { 1, 2, ..., t }, not both empty, such that [D_{1}\cap D_{2}=\varnothing ], a (t − 1)-split exists such that:

  * If colour [i\in D_{1}], then partition 1 has more beads of colour i than partition 2;
  * If colour [i\in D_{2}], then partition 2 has more beads of colour i than partition 1;
  * If colour i is in neither partition, both partitions have equally many beads of colour i.

This means that if the thieves have preferences in the form of two "preference" sets D1 and D2, not both empty, there exists a (t − 1)-split so that thief 1 gets more beads of types in his preference set D1 than thief 2; thief 2 gets more beads of types in her preference set D2 than thief 1; and the rest are equal.

Simonyi credits Gábor Tardos with noticing that the result above is a direct generalization of Alon's original necklace theorem in the case k = 2. Either the necklace has a (t − 1)-split, or it does not. If it does, there is nothing to prove. If it does not, we may add beads of a fictitious colour to the necklace, and make D1 consist of the fictitious colour and D2 empty. Then Simonyi's result shows that there is a t-split with equal numbers of each real colour.

Negative result

For every [k\geq 1] there is a measurable [{\displaystyle (k+3)}]-coloring of the real line such that no interval can be fairly split using at most [k] cuts.

Sadiki College, also known as Collège Sadiki (Tunisian Arabic: المدرسة الصادقية, "El-Sadqiya High School"), is a lycée (high school) in Tunis, Tunisia. It was established in 1875. Associations formed by its alumni played a major role in the early constitutionalist movement in the country.

Noted alumni include ex-President Habib Bourguiba,Mohamed Mzali,Mustapha Ben Jafar and Azzedine Guellouz.Mahmoud Messadi.

Sadiki historically has provided a bicultural, bilingual education. Many of the Tunisian elites, including Bourguiba, graduated from this school. These elites filled the positions of top responsibility of the Destour party. Charles A. Micaud of The Western Political Quarterly said "[i]ts realistic strategy of struggle against colonialism became convincing even to Zitūna students, many of whom came to form the medium and lower cadres of the party."

History

Khayr al-Diyn Pacha al-Tunisi, a reformer, had founded the school in 1875.President of Tunisia Habib Bourguiba delivered a speech at the school, declaring that in secondary schools, all subjects will eventually be taught in Arabic instead of French throughout Tunisia.

Bani Bu Ali expedition

The Bani Bu Ali expedition (1820–21) was a punitive campaign launched by the Sultan of Muscat and the East India Company against an Omani tribe known as the Bani Bu AliArabia. It consisted of two expeditions. The first was the only land campaign Said bin Sultan conducted in Arabia during his long reign.battle honour.

Background

The Bani Bu Ali tribe occupied the fortified village of Belad Bani Bu Ali (Place of the Sons of Ali) in Oman, in the hinterland of the Sultanate of Muscat, whose suzerainty the tribe nominally recognized. They did not, however, respect the good relations of sultan with the Company and engaged in piracy in the Arabian Sea.

In 1819, the Company carried out a punitive expedition to Ras al Khaimah, which destroyed a pirate base and removed the threat of piracy from the Persian Gulf. As a result, several Gulf states signed the General Maritime Treaty of 1820 outlawing piracy. When the Bani Bu Ali murdered the pilot of a British ship carrying a British envoy at Rass al Junaiz,Ash Sharqiyah (Oman) to assist the sultan in subduing the Bani Bu Ali.

First expedition (1820)

The expedition sailed from Bombay in October 1820 and sailed to Sur via Muscat. The small force consisting of six companies (380 men) of Indian infantry, along with four six-pounder guns, under Captain Perronet Thomson joined the sultan's force of about 2000 irregulars.

When negotiations failed,Qishm at the entrance of the Persian Gulf.

Second expedition (1821)

The destruction of this force was a major blow to British prestige in Arabia and a second stronger expedition was assembled. This force of 6000 mixed British soldiers and Indian sepoys, under Major General Lionel Smith, sailed from Bombay on 11 January 1821.


Bani Bu Ali expedition

This force contained engineer elements of the Bombay Presidency army consisting of the newly formed company of the Bombay Sappers and Miners who, under Capt. T. Dickinson (Bombay Engineers) and assisted by Lt T.B. Jervis (Bombay Engineers), were proceeding abroad for the first time in their history. Along with the Sappers and Miners company sailed the 3rd Company of the Bombay Pioneers who had recently served in the 1819 Ras al-Khaimah expedition to suppress piracy in the Persian Gulf.

The force disembarked at Sur on 27 January and marched into the interior. Repulsing an attack on 10 February, they reached Balad Bani Nu Hassan on 2 March. The Bani bu Ali advanced with desperate fanaticism to give battle in the open, ignoring the cannonades of grape-shot from the British artillery. The Arabs fought bravely with broad-sword and shield, attempting to break the British line, causing havoc at close quarters wherever they could do so. However, the line of bayonets prevailed and the Bani bu Ali were beaten off, leaving behind 500 dead and dying. On the other hand, the British casualties were 29 dead and 173 wounded. The fort at Balad was occupied after a brief bombardment. Later, the expedition returned to Sur where they embarked for Bombay.

The Bani bu Ali were defeated, the fort at their capital occupied and British prestige restored.

Battle honour

By a General Order of the Bombay Presidency, dated 11 February 1831, all units which had served in the expedition were awarded the battle honour Beni Boo Ali, including the Bombay Pioneers and the Bombay Sappers and Miners. Beni Boo Ali heads the list of battle and theatre honours of the Bombay Sappers today.repugnant.

2019 ATP Finals

Format

The ATP Finals group stage had a round-robin format, with eight players/teams divided into two groups of four and each player/team in a group playing the other three in the group. The eight seeds were determined by the ATP rankings and ATP Doubles Team Rankings on the Monday after the last ATP Tour tournament of the calendar year. All singles matches, including the final, were best of three sets with tie-breaks in each set including the third. All doubles matches were two sets (no ad) and a Match Tie-break.

In deciding placement within a group, the following criteria were used, in order:

 1. Most wins.
 2. Most matches played (e.g., a 2–1 record beats a 2–0 record).
 3. Head-to-head result between tied players/teams.
 4. Highest percentage of sets won.
 5. Highest percentage of games won.
 6. ATP rank after the last ATP Tour tournament of the year.

Criteria 4–6 were used only in the event of a three-way tie; if one of these criteria decided a winner or loser among the three, the remaining two would have been ranked by head-to-head result.

The top two of each group advanced to semifinals, with the winner of each group playing the runner-up of the other group. The winners of the semifinals then played for the title.

Qualification

Singles

Eight players competed at the tournament, with two named alternates. Players received places in the following order of precedence:


2019 ATP Finals

1. First, the top 7 players in the ATP Race to London on the Monday after the final tournament of the ATP Tour, that is, after the 2019 Paris Masters.
 2. Second, up to two 2019 Grand Slam tournament winners ranked anywhere 8th–20th, in ranking order
 3. Third, the eighth ranked player in the ATP rankings

In the event of this totaling more than 8 players, those lower down in the selection order become the alternates. If further alternates are needed, these players are selected by the ATP.

Provisional rankings were published weekly as the ATP Race to London, coinciding with the 52-week rolling ATP rankings on the date of selection. Points were accumulated in Grand Slam, ATP Tour, ATP Challenger Tour and ITF Futures tournaments from the 52 weeks prior to the selection date, with points from the previous years Tour Finals excluded. Players accrued points across 18 tournaments, usually made up of:

  * The 4 Grand Slam tournaments
  * The 8 mandatory ATP Masters tournaments
  * The best results from any 6 other tournaments that carry ranking points

All players must include the ranking points for mandatory Masters tournaments for which they are on the original acceptance list and for all Grand Slams for which they would be eligible, even if they do not compete (in which case they receive zero points). Furthermore, players who finished 2018 in the world's top 30 are commitment players who must (if not injured) include points for the 8 mandatory Masters tournament regardless of whether they enter, and who must compete in at least 4 ATP 500 tournaments (though the Monte Carlo Masters may count to this total), of which one must take place after the US Open. Zero point scores may also be taken from withdrawals by non-injured players from ATP 500 tournaments according to certain other conditions outlined by the ATP.

Players may have their ATP Tour Masters 1000 commitment reduced by one tournament, by reaching each of the following milestones:

 1. 600 tour level matches (as of January 1, 2019), including matches from Challengers and Futures played before year 2011;
 2. 12 years of service;
 3. 31 years of age (as of January 1, 2019).

If a player satisfies all three of these conditions, their mandatory ATP Tour Masters 1000 commitment is dropped entirely. Players must be in good standing as defined by the ATP as to avail of the reduced commitment.
