Invention
|
"Identify something said to be impossible. Determine
why THEY think it's impossible. Change the rules
to make it possible. You have an invention!"
|
1982
|
Sharing
Credit
|
"Credit multiplies; It doesn't divide."
|
1985
|
Artificial Intelligence
|
"AI is defined by experts as machine
emulation of the human thought process, they would be
better off first emulating the thought process of a
chicken."
|
1985
|
Engineers
|
"Engineers have an advantage over the rest of the population.
We know how things work and they don't"
|
1990
|
Fairness
|
"Fair is a four letter word."
|
1992
|
Learning
|
"It is said that you learn from your
mistakes. It's better to learn from the mistakes of
others. More quantity - Less pain"
|
1995
|
Global
Warming
|
"Global Warming? At least not in Bridgeport
CT."
|
2004
|
Lighting
|
"Originally we huddled in the dark.
Then we domesticated fire and used candles and oil lamps.
They were replaced by kerosene and gas lamps.
And Edison invented the incandescent bulb.
Now incandescent bulbs are being outlawed to be replaced by Compact Florescent Lamps (CFL).
Soon CFLs will be outlawed due to the mercury in them and they will be replaced by LED bulbs.
Then LEDs will be outlawed due to the arsenic in them and we will be back to candles
Then candles and oil/kerosene/gas lamps will be outlawed due to carbon emissions.
and once again we will huddle in the dark.

- Always remember,
-
"You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich.
You
cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong. You
cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift. You
cannot lift the wage earner up by pulling the wage payer
down. You cannot further the brotherhood of man by
inciting class hatred. You cannot build character
and courage by taking away men's initiative and
independence. You cannot help men permanently by
doing for them what they could and should do for
themselves." William J. H. Boetcker,
Presbyterian Minister (1942 - often incorrectly attributed to
Abraham Lincoln) -
"There is nothing more difficult and dangerous,
or
more doubtful of success, than an attempt to
introduce a new order of things." Niccolo
Machiavelli, The Prince (1513)
-
"Tell people something they know already and they will thank
you for it.
Tell them something new and they will
hate you for it." George Monbiot, Speech to
the Enviromedia conference, Johannesburg, South Africa (5
October 2004).
-
On changing user interfaces,
-
William F. Buckley (he of the immense vocabulary) was once being
interviewed by a young, brash reporter.
The reporter asked "Mr.
Buckley, do you still use a typewriter to write your books?" Mr.
Buckley responded, "No, I use a word processor". The
surprised reporter asked, "which one?" Mr Buckley
answered "WordStar". "WordStar", the
reported said (almost shouting), "Why WordStar". Mr.
Buckley retorted, "I have heard that there are better word
processors than WordStar, but I've also been told that there are
better languages than English".

Scott's USTA Junior Tennis: Rankings 2002,
2003,
2004
-
USTA junior rankings were based on the Star (Sirius Software)
point system until 12/03. Points were awarded (or lost) based on
the difference betweeen an individual and his/her opponent's
current point total over a 12 month period of play. The process
was iterated until a stable rank order is established.
-
As of 01/04 the USTA switchied to an ATP/ITF-like system which is
based on how far the player gets in each of his/her best 8
tournaments in the previous 12 months. There are also bonus
points for extra-ordinary wins over highly ranked players.

- Note: There are two different USTA national player listings
-
SSL - The Standings and Seedings List typically ranks
more than 1000 players in each age/sex category. It is updated
regularly (at least in the middle of each month) and is used to
determine priority for entry into National tournaments.
-
National Ranking - The National Ranking List has more
stringent participation qualifications than the SSL and normally
lists fewer than 300 players in each age/sex category.
Preliminary singles lists are published in the middle of each
month and include results for the previous 12 full months; They
are finalized at the beginning of the following month. The
doubles lists are published covering a calendar year shortly
after the end of each year. The ranking lists are archived
(Starting in 1999) by the USTA.
-
Included Matches - Only matches played in National or
high-level regional tournaments count towards National Ranking
or SSL points.
-
Scott's ITF
(International Tennis Foundation) Junior record
-
Scott's ITF
(International Tennis Foundation) Men's record
-
The ITF uses a ranking system that is similar to that of the ATP.
Points are awarded according to wins in an ITF tournament and the
tournament's estimated level of play. In general, no points are
awarded for a first round win or wins in a back draw. You need to
have some points in the current year to have an ITF ranking
