			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong><i>Question by Georgia</i>: How has the innovation of sneakers changed your life?</strong><br />
I ask this question because my National History Day project is about the Innovation of Sneakers. I am having some trouble finding primary sources, so any way you could answer is great. Your answer could be quoted on my documentary. If you could please leave a first and last name that would be nice. Thank you!</p>
<p><strong>Best answer:</strong></p>
<p><i>Answer by emmapoet11</i><br/>1. They entertain me in gym when my boring teacher is giving long directions because I relace them over and over in weird patterns.<br />
2. One of their main attributes is that they are customizable to your feet thanks to the laces.<br />
3. They stay on your foot better than &#8220;casual shoes&#8221; and are usually cooler and not brown.<br />
4. They are almost as warm as boots in the winter, thanks to all that padding and leather and stuff.<br />
5. They are very quiet and SNEAKY not floppy like flip flops or clompy like boots or clip-cloppy like clogs or click-clacky like heels.<br />
6. They can still add to your height without it looking like you are trying to be taller by wearing high heels.<br />
7. they are easy to carry when they&#8217;re not on your feet because the strings can be tied together into a handle.<br />
8. They are good for carrying sand or dirt or mud in.<br />
9. They are good for digging (while on or off your feet)</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong><i>Question by popsicle</i>: What relationship exists between technology and scientific innovation?</strong><br />
Advances in cell theory were totally dependent on the invention of the microscope. While there was indirect evidence for cells, we needed an apparatus to view them. It is likely that someone else would have invented the microscope later, but the advances in cell theory would have only come after this invention. What relationship exists between technology and scientific innovation?</p>
<p><strong>Best answer:</strong></p>
<p><i>Answer by demondoppel</i><br/>if the equation for this exists&#8230;it must not have the word &#8220;WAR&#8221; anywhere near it.<br />
It must have the need for &#8220;Peace&#8221; and enlightment. To better humankind towards unification.</p>
<p>It must also have the idea of $  $  $   removed.<br />

It must have the idea of working close to the laws of nature.</p>

<p class="releaseDateline">New York, NY (Vocus) October 24, 2010 </p>
<p> SunGard’s IntelliMatch, an enterprise-wide solution that streamlines processes for reconciliation, exception management, financial governance and archiving, has been awarded the sixth annual 2010 Innovator Award for Banking by Windows in Financial Services (WFS) magazine. The award recognizes leadership in innovation using Microsoft technologies, as well as the potential for long-term impact in the financial services industry.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>The reconciliation process is becoming progressively complicated due to increases in data complexity and transaction growth. There is therefore an increasing need for centralization of reconciliations onto a single platform and increased visibility across operations. To address these challenges, SunGard has introduced several enhancements to its enterprise-wide reconciliation solution focused on performance and scalability, intelligent workspaces, and trending and analysis. These include new matching algorithms to provide high volume performance and enhanced real-time and intraday reconciliation support, and new intelligent workspaces that can help enhance speed and accuracy in multi-reconciliation environments.&#13;<br />
<br />Joseph Viviani, publisher of Windows in Financial Services, commented: “SunGard’s IntelliMatch is a worthy winner of our Innovator Award for Banking. The functionality it offers in increased performance, scalability and transaction volume processing can play a vital role in helping financial institutions to reduce costs and free up resources.”</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>Karen Cone, general manager, Worldwide Financial Services, Microsoft, said, “Its 2010 Innovator Award for Banking attests to SunGard’s leadership in helping banks to meet their most challenging mission-critical technology needs. By helping improve operational efficiency and reducing risk in the reconciliation, exception management, financial governance and archiving processes, IntelliMatch sets a high standard and demonstrably deserves this recognition.”</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>Dave Barrett, chief operating officer of SunGard’s Ambit corporate banking business unit, said, “This award is a testimony to the investments we are making in IntelliMatch. At a time when transparency and efficiency are critical, SunGard is able to offer a solution suite that helps give customers greater visibility across their operations and improved scalability and performance through the automation and optimization of key business processes.”</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
