  1. Ptolemy VII Neos Philopator

    Ptolemy VII Neos Philopator lang el , Ptolema os N os Philop t r was an Egypt ian king of the Ptolemaic dynasty Ptolemaic period. His reign is controversial, and it is possible that he did not reign at all, but was only granted royal dignity posthumously. Even his identity is unclear. According to one reconstruction, he was the son of Ptolemy VI Philometor and Cleopatra II of Egypt , he reigned briefly with his father in 145 BC, and for a short time after that, and was murdered by his uncle, Ptolemy VIII Physcon , who succeeded him. Alternately, some scholars identify Ptolemy Neos Philopator with Ptolemy Memphites , a son of Ptolemy VIII and Cleopatra II who was murdered by his father about 132 131 BC after his mother had tried to depose Physcon and proclaim their son king yet others point to a number of minor co regents &ndash all of whom were named Ptolemy as was the tradition .... Occasionally, the numbering is reversed, and Ptolemy VIII Physcon is numbered as Ptolemy VII, with a boy king &ndash the one named Ptolemy Memphites, most likely &ndash numbered Ptolemy VIII in some older sources, Ptolemy VII is omitted altogether. This lowers the numbering of all the later Ptolemies, until Caesarion is Ptolemy XIV the nicknames are unchanged, of course.

Originally written in the late 1970s by Timothy S. Williams as a low cost alternative to the more expensive mini and mainframe computers that were popular in the day, OASIS provided time sharing multiuser facilities to allow several users to utilise the resources of one computer. Similar in concept to MP M or UNIX, THEOS uses external device drivers rather than a kernel, allowing it to be more portable to other environments, though support has been primarily directed towards industry standard hardware i.e. PC s . THEOS is specifically aimed at small business users. The languages distributed with THEOS include THEOS Multi User Basic and C . When the operating system was launched for the IBM IBM Personal Computer AT Personal Computer AT in 1982, the decision was taken to change the name from OASIS to THEOS, short for THE Operating System . THEOS was introduced in Europe by Fujitsu and other hardware manufacturers 30 years ago. The current version is THEOS Corona Commercial Release 6, which was released in December 2008. The current Windows Workstation Client as of May 2009 is version 3.16 from July 2003.

    Unreferenced date March 2009 Theos Kyrios Greek language Greek , God is the Lord , or The Lord is God is a psalm response chanted near the beginning of the Matins service in the Rite of Constantinople , observed by the Eastern Orthodox and Byzantine Catholic churches. It is based principally on Psalm 117 Septuagint numbering , the refrain composed of verses v. 27a and 26a.

  1. Ptolemy of Cyprus

    Ptolemy of Cyprus was the king of Cyprus c. 80 58 BC. He was the younger brother of Ptolemy XII Auletes , king of Ptolemaic Kingdom Egypt , and, like him, an illegitimate son of Ptolemy IX Lathyros . He appears to have been acknowledged king of Cyprus at the same time that his brother Auletes obtained the possession of the throne of Egypt, 80 BC. He neglected the precaution of obtaining confirmation of his sovereignty at Rome , and made the additional error of offending Publius Clodius Pulcher , by failing to ransom him when he had fallen into the hands of Cilicia n pirates. ref Strabo, xiv. Appian, B. C. , ii. 23 ref When Clodius became tribune 58 BC , he enacted a law to deprive Ptolemy of his kingdom, and reduce Cyprus to a Roman province . Cato the Younger Cato , who was entrusted with carrying out this decree, advised Ptolemy to submit, offering him his personal safety, with the office of high priest at Paphos and a generous pension. Ptolemy refused, and, wholly unprepared to resist Roman power and deciding to die a king, put an end to his own life, 58 BC. ref Strabo, xiv. Dio Cassius , xxxviii. 30, xxxix. 22 Livy, Epit. civ.
