* Larry Tanenbaum, chairman of Maple Leaf Sports & Entertainment

On December 9, 2011, the Ontario Teachers ' Pension Plan announced that it would sell its majority stake in Maple Leaf Sports & Entertainment to two major telecommunications companies ; Bell Canada ( TSN's main parent company ) and Rogers Communications ( owners of the competing Sportsnet chain of sports channels ) with a 37. 5 % share each ( Larry Tanenbaum will increase his ownership to a quarter of the company as well ), in a deal expected to be valued at around $ 1. 32 billion in total.

Lawrence M. " Larry " Tanenbaum ( born 1945 in Toronto, Ontario ) is a Canadian businessman and chairman of Maple Leaf Sports & Entertainment ( MLSE ).

The December 2008 sale of 7. 5 % of the company to Larry Tanenbaum for $ 90 Million values the company at $ 1. 2 Billion.

This was famously disapproved of by Tanenbaum in the Tanenbaum – Torvalds debate.

Although Tanenbaum wished for MINIX to be as accessible as possible to students, his publisher was not prepared to offer material ( such as the source code ) that could be copied freely, so a restrictive license requiring a nominal fee ( included in the price of Tanenbaum's book ) was applied as a compromise.

Andrew Tanenbaum quickly asked the community to decide one of these two editors to be the vi clone in Minix ; Elvis was chosen, and remains the vi clone for Minix today.

The OSI protocol suite that was specified as part of the project was considered by many, such as computer scientist Andrew S. Tanenbaum, to be too complicated and inefficient, and to a large extent unimplementable.

The first of these was first published by G. E. Thomas in 1949 and is followed by numerous authors ( e. g., Tanenbaum ).

Tanenbaum was forced to play at the University of Maryland's Byrd Stadium in College Park, 40 miles south of Baltimore and in fact closer to Washington.

Majority owner Steve Stavro was bought out by the Ontario Teachers ' Pension Plan and he stepped down as chairman in favour of Larry Tanenbaum.

It cited a number of arguments for the claim, including an email from Tanenbaum saying MINIX " was the base " Torvalds used to create Linux.

Although Linux 0. 01 was written using Minix as an example and starting point — Minix had been created by Tanenbaum as an example for study — no code from Minix was actually used in it ( Tanenbaum agrees on this point ).

MINIX was written from scratch by Andrew S. Tanenbaum in the 1980s, as a Unix-like operating system whose source code could be used freely in education.

Andrew Tanenbaum quickly asked the community to decide one of these two editors to be the vi clone in Minix ; Elvis was chosen, and remains the vi clone for Minix today.

In recognition of his contributions in the areas of philanthropy, business and volunteerism, Tanenbaum was appointed an Officer of the Order of Canada on October 25, 2007.

Tanenbaum was President and CEO of Kilmer Van Nostrand Co. Limited from 1968 to 2000, and is currently Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.

From 1975 to 1994 Tanenbaum served on the Board of Directors and the Executive Committee of CUC Broadcasting Limited in which Kilmer was a significant shareholder.

Although the Stars had a strong following, Tanenbaum knew he couldn't hope to compete with the Philadelphia Eagles and moved the team to Baltimore.

Larry Tanenbaum became a partner in 1996 with a 20 % stake in MLGL.

Stavro sold his stake to CTVglobemedia in 2003, and the Ontario Teachers ' Pension Plan assumed controlling interest based on equity under the new ownership structure, with Tanenbaum taking over as non-executive chairman.

( If Rogers and Bell owned their interests directly, either Rogers or Bell could be overruled by its competitor in combination with Tanenbaum.
