Abstract: An aircraft passenger seat comprises a primary seat (1) having a seat back (3) and a seat pan (4), and a secondary support surface (5) located or locatable opposite the primary, seat (1), the passenger seat being able to adopt each of an upright configuration, a reclined configuration and a substantially flat configuration, such that in the reclined configuration, the primary seat (1) is reclined relative to the upright configuration and the secondary support surface (5) is angled upwardly towards the primary seat (1) so as to support the lower leg(s) of a passenger seated in the primary seat (1); and in the substantially flat configuration, the secondary support surface (5) is substantially horizontal and the seat back (3), the seat pan (4) and the secondary support surface (5) form a substantially flat and continuous surface wherein the secondary support surface (5) is rotatable about an axis between the reclined and substantially flat configurations, said axis being translated between the reclined and subs

Abstract: A web server system regulates its own load level by dynamically varying its responses to requests for like web pages. The responses are preferably varied at least in-part using variables that directly or indirectly specify the type and/or quantity of processing to be performed in responding to requests for dynamically-generated web pages. The type of response generated by the web server system is preferably selected based upon one or more of the following: (a) the current load level of the server system as a whole, (b) the current load levels of specific computing devices or components invoked by the request, and (c) a profile of the user who requests the page.

Abstract: A seating unit for a vehicle has a pair of seats facing in opposite directions with each seat having a seating space for receiving the seated body of an occupant and an extension space in which the legs of the occupant may be placed. The seats are positioned on each side of a notional dividing axis with the seating space of one extending over the axis at the extension space of the other. The pair of seats is suitable for use in an aircraft cabin with one of the seats facing substantially forward in the cabin and the other of the seats facing substantially aft.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a system and method for providing reviewer feedback identifying a correlation between a reviewer's past voting record and successful results. Based on a reviewer's past record, the reviewer may be assigned a power rating identifying the statistical accuracy of the reviewer's voting history. That power rating may be used to weight future votes, thereby increasing the likelihood that accurate decisions will be made.
