  Plurality voting system - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The plurality voting system (also known as first past the post) is a voting system used to elect a single winner in a given election.
In an election for a single seat, such as president in a presidential system, the same style of ballot is used and the candidate who receives the largest number of votes represents the entire population.
The plurality election system is used in the Republic of China on Taiwan for executive offices such as county magistrates, mayors, and the president, but not for legislative seats which used the single non-transferable vote system.

 Power-on self-test - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
On the PC, the main duties of POST are handled by the BIOS, which may hand some of these duties to other programs designed to initialize very specific peripheral devices, notably for video and SCSI initialization.
During POST, the BIOS must integrate a plethora of competing, evolving, and even mutually exclusive standards and initiatives for the matrix of hardware and OSes the PC is expected to support.
The POST section, or POST code, is responsible for the tasks mentioned above, and the environment POST constructs for the OS is known as the runtime code, the runtime BIOS, or the runtime footprint.

The D.T. Light-Post is a translucent, radiopaque, quartz-fiber post system that may blend esthetically with a composite core material, especially under all-ceramic restorations.
Initial clinical studies of fiber post systems seem promising, but longer-term follow-up is necessary to determine whether having a flexible post allows movement of the core, resulting in increased microleakage under the crown, especially when restoring teeth with minimal remaining tooth structure.

 Talk:First Past the Post electoral system at opensource encyclopedia   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
Critics of the First Past the Post system would point out that of the 4000 votes cast, O'Leary only got 1001, whereas a total of 2999 were cast against her for other candidates.
The system's disproportionality is caused by the ability of one candidate to win a seat even though the majority of votes were cast against that candidate, with he or she in the above case being the choice of marginally over 25% of the electorate.
A first past the post system is "de facto" in many countries, but none of them has arrived at that by passing "An Act to Implement a First Past the Post Electoral System".
