They have a question on their mind like "How is my application doing" but no id...

Technology for Customization
Customization Matters. When you get in the driver's seat of someone else's car, what is the first thing you do? You adjust the seat. Because shit needs to fit. Since bindings are the interface between you and your board, customization is even more important to getting bindings to work optimally for you. They need to flex where you want them to, they need to support where you want them to, and they need to fit like you want them to. Our bindings can be run straight out of the box if you want, but if you adjust our uniquely innovative features, they can be customized more than anything else to make your snowboarding better. With Rome bindings, riders can get a perfect fit between their bindings and how they ride. For riders who know better than to accept dumbed-down, de-featured bindings.
PivotMount Strap Technology
Unmatched Control Over Strap Position and Strap Support
A Rome-exclusive technology. Found on the Katana, our strap-mounting system delivers 5 symmetrical positions and 20 additional positions for unmatched control over strap placement and strap support. Run 'em high for support, low for added freedom, or in the middle for traditional response. Or run the asymmetrically for varied side-to-side support levels. Simply loosen, rotate, and tighen.
Position 1
Low over the top of the foot for the most flexibility.
Position 3
Centered over the ankle for traditional levels of support.
Position 5
High above the ankle for the most toeside response.
Cant-in-the-Back Technology
Align Your Highbacks For Optimized Response
Another Rome-exclusive technology. Your lower legs are where your transmit power into your binding. So our unique highback canting allows riders to adjust the side-to-side angle of their highbacks to match the spine of the highback with the angle of their lower leg. For narrow stances, run 0 or 3 degrees of canting. For wider stances, go up to 6 degrees to keep your highbacks in line with your lower legs.
0 degrees
6 degrees
Yes, I Cant Technology
Added Nose and Tail Power, with Comfort
We created adjustable canting for our InBase padding system under your foot to let riders customize two aspects of their interface. Increased canting underfoot gives riders more power over the tip and tail of their boards. Some riders like this for all types of boards, but it is particularly beneficial for rocker boards that have less power in the tips and tails. Increased canting also puts less pressure on the knee for greater comfort, particularly for riders who run wider stances.
0 degrees
2.5 degrees
Full Highback Rotation
Custom Power Placement in All Models
We feel this is a basic snowboarder human right. Though many others don't, we make sure all our bindings offer highback rotation for letting riders adjust highback position to match their stance angles and their personal styles. Full range from 0 degrees to 24 degrees.
0 degrees
24 degrees

In addition to chemotherapy, physicians may advise a course of radiation therapy. St. Vincent Medical Center's comprehensive Radiotherapy Department offers a variety of options that give physicians and patients important cancer treatment choices.
3-D Conformal Radiation Therapy (3-D CRT)
In this technologically advanced procedure, radiation oncologists use CT and/or MRI scans to precisely position radiation beams during treatment.
The information from the scans feeds directly into the radiotherapy planning computer so doctors can see the treatment area in 3 dimensions. The radiation oncologist is able to design a treatment plan in 3D so the radiation beams follow the shape of the tumor more precisely. With 3D conformal radiotherapy the radiation beam avoids healthy tissue as much as possible.
Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT)
Radiation oncologists at St. Vincent Medical Center use IMRT, with its sophisticated computer software, to deliver thousands of precisely shaped beams that target the tumor while sparing as much healthy tissue as possible.
By varying the levels of the IMRT beam's power, therapists can treat tumors located near critical organs. Treatment planning systems and three-dimensional imaging technology help physicians and physicists pinpoint cancer cells.
St. Vincent Medical Center was the first community-based tertiary full-service hospital in Southern California to offer IMRT.

Location description from owner
The Paphos District
Paphos is one of six districts within the island of Cyprus. Situated on the Western side of the island it has managed to retain its traditional heritage through protecting and conserving UNESCO nominated the district a world heritage site, claiming the area is of outstanding universal importance yet cleverly it has managed to embrace the tourism Industry. Paphos is an expanding resort with diverse offerings to suit every type of holidaymaker.The coastline boasts some of the finest sandy beaches and water sport facilities , travel further inland and landscapes rise into the hills covered in the islands rich and diverse flora and fauna which leads up to its mountainous region. Paphos is increasingly popular because it suits every type of holidaymaker. Sun lovers, nature enthusiasts, hikers, cyclists and golfers and during the winter months skiers in the Troodos Mountains. The area is also a popular choice for locals who travel down to the coast for the fresher Paphos climate.
Kato Paphos
Paphos is situated in the South-west of Cyprus. It has an interesting harbour with lots of fishing and pleasure boats and the Saturday market in the old town should not be missed. Just inland are three championship golf courses, where slightly cooler temperatures mean that you can tee off comfortably throughout the year. Other sights include the Tomb of the Kings and the Paphos mosaics. A few miles to the north, Coral Bay has an excellent beach, while Peyia is a firm favourite with many visitors. For a quiet, low-key holiday you could head a little further north to the Akamas peninsula, famous for its turtles, and the very pleasant fishing village of Latchi. KATO PAPHOS - HARBOUR AREA Situated 2 miles south of Paphos town, Kato Paphos was an important port during the 4th Century BC. The whole area is scattered with remains of the past and is an archaeological paradise for any visitor. The tourist area of Kato Paphos stretches along a shoreline boulevard from the large hotels to the east of the resort to the harbour, and then from the harbour along the coast on the Kings Road to the Tomb of the Kings. The distance from one end to the other takes just over an hour to walk, which has resulted in the formation of two distinguishable tourist areas namely the harbour area and the Tomb of the Kings area. The majority of the holiday accommodation in the harbour area is situated in Universal Gardens, a 10-15 minute walk inland. There is a beach within walking distance of the harbour and Universal Gardens. PLACES OF INTEREST The Harbour Full of colourful fishing boats and yachts from all over Europe. St Paul's Pillar Situated to the west of Ayia Kyriaki Church, the pillars were named after St Pauls visit to Paphos in 45 AD Paphos, Cyprus Museum Attractive collection of Cypriot antiquities from the Paphos area, dating from the Neolithic Age to 1700 AD. The Mosaics of Paphos House of Dionysos, House of Theseus and the recently excavated House of Aion. The amazing mosaic floors, of these 3rd century AD noblemen's villas, are considered among the finest in the Eastern Mediterranean. They mostly depict scenes from Greek mythology and are beautifully executed. Paphos Medieval Castle Originally built as a Byzantine fort to protect the harbour, it was rebuilt by the Lusignans in the 13th century, then dismantled by the Venetians in 1570, who found themselves unable to defend it against the Ottomans, who in their turn restored and strengthened it after they captured the island. Paphos Odeon A small 2nd century Odeon entirely built of limestone blocks. It was uncovered by the Cyprus Department of Antiquities in 1973 and is now regularly used for musical and theatrical performances. Theoskepasti Church Theoskepasti means 'Veiled by God' and according to tradition, God sent down a fog to protect the original church during the Arab raids. The modern church was built in 1923.

Seagate Momentus XT hybrid drive
Seagate's Momentus XT hard drive adds flash storage to increase speed significantly over a standard hard drive; but it can't quite match an SSD
- A far more reasonably priced option than an SSD (though Australian pricing is yet to be confirmed), improved performance over standard hard drives
- If you buy it in the US at the moment you'll be looking at a price premium of up to 30 percent compared to a standard hard drive
Bottom Line
Seagate's Momentus XT hybrid drive delivers zippy performance that falls between a standard hard drive and an SSD, without much added cost.
PriceTBA (AUD)
Initial attempts at boosting magnetic hard-drive performance with a dose of flash memory fell flat; these so-called hybrid hard drives, released by Seagate and, in smaller quantity, by Samsung, didn't deliver on their promised speed gains. Now, nearly three years later, the concept of the hybrid drive gets new life, with the Seagate Momentus XT, the second generation of hybrid drive that mixes flash and hard disk. But does this drive deliver a measurable performance boost over its standard hard-disk cousins?
To answer that question, we ran the drive through a comprehensive round of tests in the PC World Labs. And we found that, unlike its predecessor, this drive actually does show significant performance improvements, improvements that put it ahead of standard hard drives, but still short of flash-based solid-state drives (SSD).
However, the hybrid drive gains an advantage by coming in at a lower cost and higher capacity than an SSD. Seagate's hybrid drive costs US$120 for 500GB, and $90 for 320GB--far less than a straight-up solid-state drive (currently about $750 for 256GB). Seagate is yet to reveal Australian pricing for the Momentus XT.
Second Time's the Charm
The Momentus XT is a 2.5-inch, 7200 rpm drive that fits into a standard 9.5mm z-height drive slot. The drive comes in 320GB and 500GB; each of these uses two disk platters to achieve its areal density. Also inside: 4GB of flash memory, up from the paltry 256MB integrated into the company's first attempt at a hybrid drive.
Another difference: Where Seagate's first hybrid hard drive required operating system support (which was lacking in full at the time it came out), the Momentus XT achieves its performance independently of the operating system, and of the motherboard, too, according to Seagate. The drive is designed to boost read performance, but it will also help write performance, too.
Improved specs and engineering can sound great on paper, but does the Momentus XT truly deliver? We tested the 500GB model against an SSD drive (the OCZ Summit Series 120GB), a 5400-rpm 2.5-inch drive (the Western Digital Scorpio Blue 750GB), and a 7200-rpm 2.5-inch drive (the Western Digital WD3220BEKT) to see how the hybrid drive compares. Before we began testing, Seagate warned us that, due to the architecture of the drive, we shouldn't expect to see the maximum benefits of flash integration on the first few test passes (typically, we run three timed passes for every test we perform). Instead, the Momentus XT would show its true performance colors, consistently, at between passes four through six. For that reason, we ran all four drives through seven passes on all of our tests.
Seagate has released an interesting video that shows how the Momentus XT performs in comparison to other hard drives and SSDs. We've embedded the video below:
Let's see how their results compare to ours.
Test results
In terms of raw performance, the SSD unsurprisingly led the pack: It had the fastest boot time and the fastest times on our file read and copy tests. In second came the Momentus XT: It fell somewhere between the SSD and the 7200-rpm drive.
On our boot-up tests, the SSD took 86 seconds. That compared to the 110 seconds for the Momentus XT hybrid, 149 seconds for the 7200-rpm drive, and 159 seconds for the 5400-rpm drive. As Seagate indicated, not until pass number three did the drive begin to show stable, consistent results.
The Momentus XT consistently outpaced the 7200-rpm drive on our performance tests, typically almost precisely between the SSD and the 7200-rpm drive. For example, on our read 3.7GB of files test, the SSD required 26.7 seconds to complete the task, the hybrid drive 40.4 seconds, and the 7200-rpm drive 54.4 seconds (the 5400-rpm drive was just a little farther behind, at 54.4 seconds.
The hybrid drive performed similarly relative to the SSD and the 7200-rpm drive when it came to our write 3.7GB of files test. There, the hybrid drive logged 44.6 seconds, compared with the SSD's 25.2 seconds, the 7200-rpm's 61.5 seconds, and the 5400-rpm's 125.5 seconds.
The differences were less pronounced for the malware scan; there, the hybrid drive and 7200-rpm drive performed comparably, with the SSD leading the way. Ditto with regard to our PC WorldBench 6 tests; there, the system with the hybrid drive performed comparably to the 7200-rpm drive (scoring 130 for the hybrid drive, and 129 for the 7200-rpm); by comparison, the system with the SSD scored 139, and the system with the 5400-rpm drive scored 125.
Hybrid Future?
For now, the Momentus XT is a lone duckling in a sea of options. But now that the drive has proven itself, it will be interesting to see if other drive makers decide to go the route of hybrid technology. If sheer performance is what you want, SSD remains king. But it also remains expensive, and limited in capacity (a 120GB drive such as the OCZ used in this comparison costs $400, while a 256GB SSD runs about $750).
But if you want a performance boost on a budget, and you value capacity too, this second-gen hybrid drive makes a good compromise. The Seagate Momentus XT won't give you nearly the same speed boost as an SSD, but it will definitely improve upon what you'd get with a standard 5400-rpm hard drive, and even a 7200-rpm drive, in some scenarios.

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
Anthony Grifoni
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
Steph Mundell
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
Andrew Mitsi
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
Simon Harriott
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

All true Arsenal fans your board needs you!!
Although sick of his threads all being the same, I dont think a boycott is the answer. Ignore him if you want to by all means. The only time I get really angry is when someone turns a vaild debate into an insulting match, which Club tends not to do, he just sticks to his opinions and doesnt listen to other peoples views.

Are you saying you don't think club insults people? Whenever we disagree with him he ends up saying something derogatory when he can't back up his opinions. Go and have a look at some of his posts again I think you'll find him insulting plenty of people on here for simply offering a different point of view than his. Most of us also back up why we disagree also.

Baalke has taken a number of very talented athletes with impressive measurables even if the college production hasn't been there:
-Anthony Davis: Immense athletecism, but an overall questionable college career. Even got benched for several games due to performance.
-Iupati: Raw, and didn't face great competition, but again the talent was obvious
-Mays: Great numbers, terrible tape. And yes, I know this was most Singletary's pick.
-Kyle Williams: Kid ran a 4.4 at the combine. I'm sure that played a role.
-Aldon Smith: College production was there, but wasn't #8 overall worthy. The talent was top notch however
-Colin Kaepernick: Not ready to play, but amazing physical skill set. Fast, tall, and a big time arm
-Culliver: Workout warrior with avg college career
This bodes well for players like:
-Stephen Hill
-Mike Adams

"I can't get into details except to say that we are taking appropriate action. It's unfortunate because he's a very intelligent young man who made a very big mistake," Kelly Nantel, spokeswoman for the National Transportation Safety Board, told Politico.
It's unclear where the fake names — read aloud on San Francisco station KTVU-TV's noon broadcast Friday and also including "Wi Tu Lo" and "Bang Ding Ow" — originated, but the NTSB admits they were confirmed to the news organization by an unnamed summer intern who reportedly is now out of a job.
Video clips of the hoax have gone viral on the Internet but are being taken much more seriously by Asiana.The airline plans to file suit against KTVU for defamation, alleging that the erroneous information has harmed its reputation.
Three people have died as a result of the July 6 crash. Investigations into the cause of the accident are ongoing.

Definition of galliard in English:
A lively dance in triple time for two people, including complicated turns and steps.
Example sentences
- The term ballo occurs in this context mainly in the 16th century, when it denoted a collection of dances of the period, such as branles, pavans and galliards, and saltarellos.
- This exotic combination is followed by a complete contrast of sound in the succeeding galliard, or Gailliarde as it is spelt in the score.
- Other dances, such as the various types of branles, were a direct transference of folk sources, whilst others, again, compromised between populist zest and courtly fastidiousness, as did the pavanes and galliards.
Late Middle English (as an adjective meaning 'valiant, sturdy' and 'lively, brisk'): from Old French gaillard 'valiant', of Celtic origin. The current sense dates from the mid 16th century.

text: Richard Carlsson <> wrote: I agree that [(n+k) patterns] are very cute. Probably too cute. For a detailed discussion by the Haskell nomenklatura: http://www.cs.chalmers.se/~rjmh/Haskell/Messages/Decision.cgi?id=203 If you do see that, note in particular the first two paragraphs: "we have an extra reason not to change the (n+k) syntax" "n+k patterns will stay" "they should either be in or out and they're in!na If we look at Colin Runciman's arguments, for example: (0) + isn't a constructor -- this is not just an argument against n+k, it is an argument against abstract patterns or views of any kind. (n+k isn't quite definable in my abstract patterns proposal, but n+1 is.) This could be fixed by using some symbol other than +; if the syntax were (for argument's sake) 1'(x) or 2'(x) instead of x+1 or x+2, we could also allow 1'(x) or 2'(x) as a construction form in expressions (with the condition that x >= 0). (1) the test n>=0 is a hidden side condition -- the side condition is precisely why we WANT this pattern. I believe this could be fixed by the same approach as (0): if there were a quasi-constructor k' for each positive integer k, which raised an exception of its argument were not a natural number, then the "side-condition" could no longer be honestly called "hidden", because it would apply always and everywhere. (2) it is forbidden in a top-level pattern -- well, it shouldn't be. This argument doesn't apply at all to Erlang, where function definitions are not top-level patterns; there aren't any of those. (3) other patterns can be made more specific by putting a constant for a variable but while n+2 is legal, 2+2 isn't -- fix that by making 2+2 legal. He also argues that n+2 is legal but n+m is not; if we used k' as a quasi-constructor, where the ' is *part of the token*, that problem also would disappear. It would be no stranger that 2'(n) cannot be generalised to m'(n) than that F2(n) cannot be generalised to (F m)(n). (4) n+k looks like an aid to equational reasoning but isn't -- true, but it is hard to take that argument seriously: does anyone expect it to be? This argument would hold no force whatever if the ' syntax were used. "Suppose f is defined by the sole equation f 1'(n) = 0. Is this a law: for all integer expressions n, f '(n) = 0?" Not quite, but it IS a law for all expressions n with natural number values. The range condition here is no more surprising or exceptional than "if f is defined by f n = 0" it is NOT a law that "for all integer expressions n, f n = 0", not in a strict language like Haskell it isn't, because the expression might fail to have a value. (5) "Superficially, it encourages careful case analysis, but again it undermines it" -- turns out to be an attack on n+k syntax FOR DOING ITS JOB. The job of n+k syntax is to *NOT* handle negative numbers. (6) Why not c*n+k patterns, where 0 <= k < c -- but that is precisely what I asked for in my previous message. (7) Uses of n+k in existing code are easily detected, and easily translated into (n+k)-free equivalents -- half true. Yes, n+k is easy to detect. No, a compiler can "easily" translate it away, but a human cannot "easily" transform all occurrences of n+k into *READABLE* equivalents. That's why I want N+k in Erlang, so that code can be written in a safer (in cases where you would have forgotten the range check) and more readable (in cases where you would not) way. This is an argument that n+k *can* be eliminated, not that it *should*. (8) Omitting n+k would simplify the language -- and so would eliminating if-then-else, short-circuit and, short-circuit or, 'where', and a host of other bits of syntactic sugar. Simplicity is not an absolute goal. (There are some truly bizarre things in GHC, some of them seriously considered for Haskell-prime.) (9) Retaining n+k would be controversial -- so would omitting it. So this doesn't really count as an argument against it. Those are reasonably typical arguments, and Richard Bird did a superb job of demolishing them. For example, "(0-3) The anomaly remarks abotu + not being a constructor are all, of course, true. But in 14 years of teaching, I have never found that they cause students any confusion." David Lester's argument that the use of n+k patterns limits your code to integral types, when some more general arithmetic type might have been usable otherwise, is true enough for Haskell, but totally irrelevant to Erlang. Even for Haskell, the argument is bogus, because n+k COULD be made to work for any instance of Num. Here's how: define (n+k) to match v when signum (v - fromInteger k) /= signum (fromInteger (-1) `asTypeOf` v) n matches v - fromInteger k Let's suppose we want to answer arguments (0), (1), (2 does not apply in Erlang), (3), arguably (4), (5), part of (6) that I omitted, but in a design for Erlang. For any positive integer literal k, #+k is a postfix unary operator #-k is a postfix unary operator these operators are "quasi-constructors". That is, they act like constructors, and may be used in expressions and in patterns, but unlike list and tuple constructors (but like binary constructors) their arguments are restricted. In an expression, the (left) argument - of #+k must evaluate to a non-negative integer x, the result is x+k; - of #-k must evaluate to a non-positive integer x, the result is x-k. In a pattern, the (left) argument - of #+k must be a non-negative integer literal x, matching (x+k), or a variable bound to a non-negative integer x, matching (x+k), or an unbound variable or wild-card X, in which case the pattern matches any integer y greater than or equal to k and binds X to y-k; - of #-k must be a non-positive integer literal x, matching (x-k), or a variable bound ro a non-negative integer x, matching (x-k), or an unbound variable or wild-card X, in which case the pattern matches any integer y less than or equal to -k and binds X to y+k. X#+k matches e#+k if and only if integer(e), e >= 0, X = e X#-k matches e#-k if and only if integer(e), e =< 0, X = e Now we can do a three-way analysis: factorial(N = M#+1) -> N * factorial(M); factorial(0) -> 1; factorial(_#-1) -> exit({badarith,[{?MODULE,factorial,1}]}). > But also, when working with binary, ternary, and quaternary trees, > I have wanted to do this: > > f(1) -> ...; > f(2*K+0) -> ...; > f(2*K+1) -> .... It is really very pretty. One almost wants to pick it up and cuddle it. But it's probably the kind of feature that is catering too much for a special case while at the same time not really being useful all that often in real code. Oddly enough "we don't provide this obviously useful generalisation of n+k" is one of the standard arguments brought out by people who oppose n+k. There seem to be quite a few people who regard this as a natural extension of pattern matching, even if they see it as undesirable on deeper reflection. Let me put it this way: Lisp has been around for decades without any kind of pattern matching at all. Get used to the Lisp style, and you find yourself thinking "all this pattern matching is catering too much for a few special cases while at the same time not really being useful all that often in real code, what with sequence functions and CLOS and all sorts of things you can't write patterns for". If we _had_ c*n+k patterns we might well find them useful a lot in real code. Maybe not. I *do* know that I use n+k patterns a lot in Haskell and wish for them a lot in Erlang, In the same way, the more I look at let P = E0 then E1, ... for Q <- ... in Result the more I find uses for it and the more I find that it would simplify and clarify existing code. (I managed to shrink one chunk of someone else's Erlang code by nearly a factor of three this way.) What you find useful depends on what you have available to use.

I'm an over-caffeinated chick-lit writer obsessed with Twizzlers, cupcakes and wine.
I live in London, on a street with two Starbucks and (at last count) three other cafés that I can't go to because I'm always broke, forcing me to stay home in my cozy little flat and make my own increasingly stonger brew.
I have a not-so-secret crush on Sir Alan of The Apprentice and if I was forced to wax anyone's hairy chest it would have to be Simon Cowell. Clearly I watch too much reality television.
My debut novel The Hating Game was short-listed for Best Romantic Read at the UK's Festival of Romance, while my second, Watching Willow Watts, was selected as an Amazon Customer Favourite. My novels have also been chosen as top books of the year by industry review websites and have been bestsellers in Britain and the United States.

Now in 2009 I received notice that they intended to levy my check again I contacted JK Harris and had to go the same process only difference this time is that in February 2009 the IRS enforced the levy, when I contacted JK Harris, my case coordinator said she'd get back with me and to this day I haven't heard another word from her each time that I've tried contacting her the message says that she's away from her desk or on the phone with another customer leave a message and she will call back. Well needless to say I stopped payment to JK Harris Financial and they have started calling and offering incentives to re-instate my case. No Thanks...
Now over $7,000.00 in the hole to JK Harris and no income coming in because my check is still being levied I have no funding's to hire a lawyer which forced me to apply for help through the TAXPAYER ADVOCATE 3 weeks ago, this also seem like a scam my case rep. has always been unavailable and has not returned a call. Thanks to JK Harris and their great representation I'm about to loose everything I own. I NEED HELP FAST...

The BBB is just a place for consumers to complain about companies a note of the complaints are put on record for other people to see that's it, they do not get directly involved with the shut down of the company though the complaints can be used against the company.
Also, CCS is a FTC regulated every year the reports and all the information that is given to customers is thoroughly looked over and reviewed by the FTC to make sure that the company is not mis-representing itself. The company is listed as a merchant credit card company meaning the credit offered is only for merchandise as long as the company doesn't represent anything else other than that it is legal and not fraud.
