+ * Partially applies a function to a particular "this object" and zero or
+ * more arguments. The result is a new function with some arguments of the first
+ * function pre-filled and the value of |this| "pre-specified".
+ *
+ * Remaining arguments specified at call-time are appended to the pre-
+ * specified ones.
+ *
+ * Usage:
+ * var barMethBound = BindToObject(myFunction, myObj, "arg1", "arg2");
+ * barMethBound("arg3", "arg4");
+ *
+ * @param fn {string} Reference to the function to be bound
+ *
+ * @param self {object} Specifies the object which |this| should point to
+ * when the function is run. If the value is null or undefined, it will default
+ * to the global object.
+ *
+ * @returns {function} A partially-applied form of the speficied function.
