GSA Announces Winners for First Annual Citizen Service Award
WASHINGTON – USA Services, in the Office of Citizen Services at the U.S. General Services Administration (GSA), announced the three winners of their first annual Citizen Service Award today at the Interagency Resources Management Conference 2008 (IRMCO).
The USA Services Citizen Service Award was created to recognize federal agencies for excellence in customer service. The winners demonstrated increased service performance, accomplishments in creativity with public outreach, realized cost savings, and/or innovative recruitment and training methods. The award was judged by a panel of five that included representatives from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) and USA Services and federal employees with communications and contact center experience.
"USA Services believes in continually improving the government's service to the public," said Martha Dorris, GSA Deputy Associate Administrator for Citizen Services. "When this Administration asked government to be more citizen-centric, USA Services responded; these awards recognize those efforts by other federal agencies that have also answered the call."
The following winners were recognized:
First Place – Participant Assistance Program, Employee Benefits Security Administration (EBSA), U.S. Department of Labor – for efforts to help participants in employer-sponsored retirement and health plans extend their health coverage and obtain retirement benefits that were wrongly denied. As the program's volume of electronic inquiries has risen, EBSA has increased the amount of benefits recovered for citizens – $96 million in 2007 alone – while EBSA's staff size has remained the same. EBSA uses public service announcements, press releases, radio appearances and appearances at plant closings to reach their audience, and continually educates congressional staff about their program.
Second Place – Recruitment OneStop: USAJOBS, U.S. Office of Personnel Management – for consolidating separate online federal government job application programs, resulting in cost savings to the government and time savings to citizens. USAJOBS has saved the government over $25 million each year since its inception and continues to add time-saving features for users, such as the ability to store military records in users' USAJOBS profiles. USAJOBS' efforts have led to increased applicants for open positions and a higher quality federal workforce.
Third Place - Cancer Information Service, National Cancer Institute, U.S. National Institutes of Health, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services – for the addition of English- and Spanish-language email and web chat functionality on www.cancer.gov. The Cancer Information Service also consolidated 14 contact centers into three, realizing cost savings, while continuing to maintain a customer satisfaction score of 86 out of 100. The Cancer Information Service engaged in creative outreach by producing a wallet card to help cancer patients reach their medical providers after Hurricane Katrina.
GSA provides a centralized delivery system of products and services to the federal government, leveraging its enormous buying power to get the best value for taxpayers.
• Founded in 1949, GSA manages more than one-fourth of the government's total procurement dollars and influences the management of $500 billion in federal assets, including 8,600 government-owned or leased buildings and 208,000 vehicles.
• GSA helps preserve our past and define our future, as a steward of more than 425 historic properties, and as manager of USA.gov, the official portal to federal government information and services.
• GSA's mission to provide superior workplaces, expert technology solutions, acquisition services, purchasing and E-Gov travel solutions and management policies, at best value, allows federal agencies to focus on their core missions.
USA Services is housed in GSA's Office of Citizen Services and Communications. It serves citizens directly through USA.gov and other websites, the National Contact Center at 1 (800) FED INFO, and the Pueblo, Colorado publications distribution center. USA Services also plays a government-wide leadership role through the USA Contact Contract Vehicle, Web Manager University, and communities of interest for government contact center managers. For more information about USA Services, visit www.USAServices.gov.
Did You Know? USA Services operated at a cost-per-touchpoint of 21 cents in 2007, exceeding the 26 cents goal that was set.

Despite its differences, wine from Chile has similar origins to that of Argentina. Viticulture was likewise introduced by the Spanish conquistadors, and France later contributed to expanding the varieties. The growing regions, climate and conditions of Chile are a winemaker's dream. With Chilean wineries along the foothills of the Andes Mountains and along the coast, the vineyards are fairly isolated.
Chilean wine is highly ranked and acclaimed internationally as a result of the high quality of the wine produced in this country. Carmenère is their signature grape with a balance of both fruity and spicy. You will also find delicious Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Franc and others. Winemakers take on the aging process with stainless steel or oak barrels, but there is not much vintage variation.
Chile produces fairly consistent profiles that will make this wine an easy go-to no matter which vintage you choose. Browse Wine Chateau to explore different varieties and vintages from Chile.

LA MESA — Just a few days before La Mesa is set to celebrate its centennial, Mayor Art Madrid gave his state-of-the-city address Tuesday afternoon at the first City Council meeting of 2013.
Madrid reviewed accomplishments of the past year, including the final update of the city's General Plan, a smart growth planning grant from SANDAG that helped the city develop a bicycle/alternative transportation plan and the relocation of the city's farmers market, which has shown overall sales growth.
He also talked up infrastructure improvements, a 10 percent decrease in violent crimes compared to 2011 and a parks/open space improvement plan that was also funded by a SANDAG grant.
Madrid noted some of the frustrations all cities in California have had to deal with, including the end of redevelopment agencies, the releasing of some prisoners back to the communities from where they came and economic challenges.
Madrid talked in prepared remarks about the city's centennial celebration, and shared "the final and lasting memory of our yearlong celebration," the city's Legacy Project, a public art monument and time capsule downtown that he called "The Lookout."
To be located at Allison Avenue and La Mesa Boulevard, Madrid said in his statement that "$157,300 has been raised from generous individuals, local merchants and companies," hinting that contributions were still being accepted.
Looking toward the future, Madrid mentioned in his statement the coming Boys & Girls Club at La Mesa Middle School, which will result in the expansion of Junior High Drive, and the city's Downtown Streetscape Improvement Project yet being vetted.
He mentioned public safety issues and finished with a reference to "the recent tragic and horrific incident" at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn., that "remind each of us of how unpredictable and fragile life is, how we often assume that we are immune from tragedies, pain and the other ills that permeate society simply because we are fortunate to live in (a) great community like La Mesa."

new BT4 pre final, woot! sooo... I be wondering if I can just upgrade from BT4beta (which is installed on my hard drive) straight to the new release (BT4 pre final) ?
would this work?
Code:# apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade -y
'see the fnords!'
will you be able to upgrade from pre-final to final seeing as it installs perfectly
top job btw guys
Yes that should be possible, but as we have only just released pre-final there is no 100% certainty.
no probs. thanks man.
this seems very stable - im testing all my cards now
So how to upgrade BT#4 Beta to Pre Release if i've got Beta installed on my harddisk AND i don't want to loose all my data ?
then I placed the backup file onto a partition that I was NOT going to be f'n with (heck, if ya got a USB drive, copy it there even). reboot into the new BT4 pre final, and let it format yr old BT4beta install partition using the install.sh/ubiquity installer and away you go.Code:tar czf backup-06212009.tar.gz /etc /root
once everything is done, and you are up and running on yr new BT4 pre final install, and once you get logged into using yr newly created account move the backup file over to yr home directory (or even better to a temporary directory) and untar it ::
you will notice it will create 2 new directories in your current dir called /etc and /root --- just make SURE not to do this in the / directory and u are golden. from there, you can manually move the files to the location you want them...Code:tar vxzf backup-06212009.tar.gz
good 2 go
'see the fnords!'
yahh thank you very much for this fnord0
I aint crazy just a lil mistaken

LOS ANGELES - The Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors on Tuesday postponed action on a stormwater- cleanup fee after an overwhelming majority of speakers representing cities, school districts, businesses and property owners expressed opposition to the measure and the way it was presented.
The supervisors voted 3-2 to redraft the measure to include a sunset clause, a list of projects and the possibility of placing it on a general ballot before the entire electorate, instead of only sending property owners a mail-in ballot.
Taxpayers can continue commenting on the proposed measure for another 60 days. The next hearing before the supervisors is tentatively slated for March 12. So far, the county has received 96,349 written protests, about 4.3 percent. It needed 50 percent or more to stop the process.
Supervisor Don Knabe, who represents the beaches, southeast county and Puente Hills communities, said too many property owners were not aware of the measure. He blamed a flawed, $3 million county process that consisted of mailing a single notice to the owners of 2.2 million properties. Because many overlooked the notice and some didn't receive it - including Azusa Pacific University - Knabe wanted more time for public comment.
"We mailed a very important protest hearing notice that looked like junk mail to the public during the busiest mail season of the year, and we are still being told that many never received a notice or that it was inadvertently thrown away," Knabe said.
Even Supervisor Gloria Molina said she tossed the notice from the county Department of Public Works mailed to her home sometime after Nov. 30 because she thought it was junk mail.
"I am troubled by so many aspects of this. There are too many untied issues," Molina said. "I don't know what will clean the water."
As drafted, the proposal would assess single-family homes about $54 a year, while big-box stores would pay $11,000. The measure would raise about $295 million from homes, commercial properties, schools, churches and other nonprofits normally exempt from taxes. The money would be divvied up by regional groups, cities and the county and used to build stormwater- treatment plants and new parks with permeable surfaces so water can be returned to the ground.
The county is spearheading the effort to help cities and unincorporated communities on the hook for treating urban runoff by state and federal regulators. Stormwater in an urban region such as Los Angeles County picks up chemicals from lawns, metals and toxins from roadways and bacteria from animal waste that contaminates inland lakes, the San Gabriel, Rio Hondo and Los Angeles rivers, as well as the ocean. More than 1.8 million cases a year of gastroenteritis, as well as pink eye and sore throats, are attributed to runoff that reaches the ocean.
About 200 speakers testified before the board during a four-and-a-half-hour public hearing Tuesday required by Proposition 218. Opposition came from a wide swath of county taxpayers, from senior citizens, homeowners, school districts, nonprofits, small businesses and corporations.
"Property owners can't afford to clean up everyone's garbage," said Inez Mogul, whose comment summed up the opposition from dozens of irate property owners who were among the 800 people in attendance at the board meeting room and an overflow room at the Hall of Administration in the civic center.
Many jeered those who supported the measure and applauded the testimony of someone against the tax measure.
Joining the string of property owners opposed to a new tax on their land were school districts that said any new assessment would take away money from the classrooms and could result in more teacher and staff layoffs.
"You can tax me. But please don't tax our schools," Alhambra Unified School District Board Trustee Adele Andrade- Stadler told the board.
Those in opposition included Los Angeles Unified, El Monte Union High School District, Hacienda La Puente Unified School District and nearly every district in the Whittier area. Arcadia Unified School District Superintendent Joel Shawn asked the board to delay any tax vote for a year, so schools can get back on their feet financially.
Cities opposed included Santa Clarita, Burbank, Rosemead and Bell. The cities of Los Angeles, Malibu, Long Beach and Signal Hill joined many environmental organizations in support of the measure.
Environmental groups in support included Heal the Bay, Surfriders Association, Amigos de los Rios, Trust for Public Land and the Santa Monica Mountains Conservancy. A handful of parents and property owners told the board they supported the measure as a good way to ensure cleaner, safer beaches.
Last week, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled the county was not solely responsible for polluting the rivers and beaches, rejecting arguments from environmental groups who said the county should pay because it transports billions of gallons of polluted stormwater along county rivers and concrete channels. However, the county sees the new fee as abiding by the high court's ruling and says the Clean Water, Clean Beaches measure will help get the job done and share the cost with the county's 88 cities.
"This measure is designed to provide this regional approach," said Angela George, principal engineer with the county Department of Public Works. "It is the collective responsibility of all municipalities to improve stormwater quality."
As Molina pointed out during the testimony of an elected official from Bell, the Los Angeles Regional Water Quality Control Board - a state agency - can begin assessing fines on cities for not taking action.
"The state is mandating this. The cities will be fined by the state if somebody doesn't do this," Molina said.
Monrovia Mayor Mary Ann Lutz, who sits on the Regional Board, said she was concerned about the lack of outreach from the county to local school districts. "Schools don't see it as a benefit. They see it as money being taken away from education," she said.
Lutz said there were questions about the formula for calculating assessments on schools and on those who have taken steps to limit runoff.
Supervisor Zev Yaroslavsky said he wanted to see a re-draft that included more equitable ways to address property owners with cisterns and rain barrels or permeable driveways.
He called the measure "not ready for prime time" and voted with Supervisor Mark Ridley-Thomas and Knabe to bring it back in 60 days with amendments.
Supervisor Michael Antonovich's motion to kill the measure failed.

IRVINE, CA -- Classic Foods Inc. is rolling out a line of snacks formulated to meet the nutritional guidelines set by most school districts across the country. Rice-and corn-based California Classics include cheese balls, hot and crunchy cheese balls, caramel crunch and apple pie crunch. They're available in 1.5-oz. bags for vending machines.
California Classics are said to be high in fiber and low in fat. They provide 2.1 servings of grain/bread requirements set by the School Nutrition Standards Act. They are also gluten-free and contain no cholesterol, preservatives, trans fat, MSG, high fructose corn syrup or artificial flavors or colors.
"We created snacks that are a healthier alternative to popular snacks, but still satisfy children's cravings," said Classic Foods director of innovation Sam Kilgore. "There's no point in making a healthy snack for children if they won't want to eat it. California Classics are genuinely tasty snacks that just happen to be quite a bit healthier."
Classic Foods officially entered the vending channel with its signature Kettle Classics chips last month. | SEE STORY

Kathy Schiffer calls a video of Emily Letts getting an abortion "weird", and if all you take into account is this young woman's words, they are weird; they make almost no sense."I know that sounds weird, but to me, this was as birth-like as it could be.

STV provided architectural, interior design and civil and structural engineering services for the complete renovation of The Rock Cafe at Ferris State University. The firm's design transformed it from a traditional style cafeteria to a marketplace concept, which provides an integrated food production and dining experience with an emphasis on fresh ingredients and made-to-order preparation. For the design, the original back-of-the-house production was moved to several self-contained display cooking venues inside the dining area. Sustainable elements include the exterior envelope, which was upgraded to include increased insulation and efficient glazing systems to reduce heating and energy costs. The southern façade includes extended canopies that provide shading during the hot summer months to decrease the cooling loads on the facility.
Seating capacity was increased from 400 to about 640, including enclosed areas for small groups to meet. A new full-service retail convenience store features made-to-order pizza.

- Lack of free water in the Vendor Area/Artist Alley, and I'm not talking bubblers here. Given the lines to get in this year, some people may not want to leave in order to get something to drink and try to take the heat. As I was wearing a heavy costume myself, I was feeling the heat of the area and would have liked something to drink. Bubblers are nice but at the same time, those of us with wigs are in a rock and hard place with those.
- Smoking areas being in the same spots as gathering areas. Yeah... that should never happen, ever.
- Scheduling of Touhou panels. Yes, the scheduling could have been worse, but it could have been a lot better.
- Having a guidebook app and not putting out a PDF of the regular program. Ohhhhh boy. You decided to publish a guidebook as an app for those with smartphones and tablets. Great! For those who can use it anyway. I have an old dumb phone, so I can't use the app. Instead I had to dig around the forums to find the gathering and panel schedule. If you're going to use an app like that, at least for the love of the FSM release a PDF of the regular program too.
The layout of the vendor area bothered me, but I understand that it was due the area being in a different location than last year.

Local editor thankful for many things this year, but most of all for being alive
By Melissa Vander Plas
Wednesday, November 28, 2012 9:02 AM
Lisa Brainard is currently residing in a respite care room at Park Lane Estates in Preston where she is receiving therapy nearly every day and assistance in her recovery.
Almost three months after a nearly-fatal fall from a bridge, local editor Lisa Brainard is truly thankful to be alive, but more than that, she is appreciative of the love and support she has received from her friends and members of the community.
"I am so thankful for the cards, the well wishes and gifts," she said from her room at Park Lane Estates in Preston where she is continuing her recovery after spending more than a month at Saint Marys Hospital in Rochester, part of which she spent on the rehabilitation floor in the Mary Brigh building. She moved to Park Lane Estates at the end of October and continues to work with physical and occupational therapists in her recuperation.
After surviving a 24-foot fall from a bridge on to rocks in a shallow section of the Root River on Sept. 5, Brainard was taken to Saint Marys where it was determined she had a broken eye socket, a broken thumb on her right hand, broken ribs on her left side and a bruised/torn aorta.
The biggest concern was her damaged aorta and she went into surgery a few days after her fall where stents were inserted to keep her aorta from collapsing. A few hours later, Brainard suffered a stroke, which affected the left side of her body as well as the peripheral vision in her left eye.
As dire as things may have seemed at that time, looking back now, a lot of that time is somewhat of a blur for her. She shared, however, that reading back through her medical records brings tears to her eyes.
"I am truly thankful to be alive," she reiterated. "But there was a time when I couldn't help but wonder if it was my time."
Brainard said she never lost hope and has tried to keep her spirits up. "I never felt the situation was hopeless, but just wondered what was going to happen next," she added.
"Some people tell me I'm an inspiration," Brainard said. "But I don't think I am. I'm just doing what I have to do."
Since coming to Park Lane Estates, she has worked with therapists nearly every day. She has made progress since the stroke, being able to get out of her wheel chair and walk with a walker. She is now working to walk with a cane.
Brainard explained that her left arm and leg are still numb, but she is using them more and moving them more purposefully. "Hopefully the nerve pathways are trying to reconnect," she added.
Her biggest frustration at this time is her damaged eye socket, which prevents her from getting a new eyeglass prescription. Therefore, she is unable to read, which is one of her favorite pastimes. The eye socket was repaired in surgery a couple of weeks ago, with a titanium mesh being added to reinforce the bone. She has a follow-up appointment this week so hopes she can discuss getting glasses with her doctor.
As progress has been made, Brainard has been able to get out and about in the communities several times. She said the experiences have given her a new perspective on accessibility of area businesses. She has to consider entrances when choosing where she would like to go and has to determine if it would be best to use a walker or wheelchair when going out.
One miscommunication that Brainard would like to clear up is the fact that she was transported from her accident site to Saint Marys by the Lanesboro Ambulance Crew, not Mayo One. "I understand that Mayo One was called and was on site, but the Lanesboro Ambulance actually transported me," she noted. She has since talked with one of the crewmembers and said she is very grateful to have the care she needed available when she needed it.
"I think it's kind of ironic that people always worry about me when I go out on a hike on my own, but my accident actually happened right in Lanesboro," Brainard said. "I guess it was good, because the care was right there."
Brainard is not sure how long she will remain at Park Lane, but noted her doctors and therapists will help determine when she is ready to return to her own home.
"Going home right away would have required a lot of help," she explained. "Here, I have assistance if I need it and hallways to walk down."
Brainard said the location of Park Lane was what ultimately helped her decide where to go between the hospital and home. "It's located on the edge of town and I can look out my window and see the trees. I can sit outside on the porch and look out the window of the dining room and see nature," she said.
Being the outdoor person that she is, Brainard's ideal prognosis would enable her to get back outside, hiking without the need for a cane or any walking aids. "But, we'll see," she said. "But, if I can't do that, I'll get outside anyway. I have walked with the walker around the loop in the driveway and I've practiced walking on the lawn. I'll do what I need to do."
She also shared that she recently ordered a new camera as hers was damaged beyond repair in her fall. "I'm just not me without my camera," Brainard added and is already planning on what it will take for her to stabilize the camera until her left hand becomes more cooperative.
Brainard is unsure of when she will be returning to work as the editor of the Chatfield News and Republican-Leader, but is working toward that goal, whether it is full-time or just part-time at first. Those she has worked with, throughout the communities, have been very supportive and encouraging throughout her recovery.
"So many people have been so helpful," she added. "Giving rides to appointments, stopping in to see me, asking me if I need anything . . . It is all so appreciated."
Brainard was especially touched by the various communities of faith, which included her in their prayers. Many area clergy visited her in the hospital and a local church created a prayer shawl for her.
"I am so grateful for everyone who has been sending positive thoughts my way," she concluded. "It has meant more to me than I could ever say."

text: November 8, 2013 ─ From December 11 to February 2, the Quartier des spectacles will help you chase the winter blues away with two light installations: Entre les rangs (In the Field) and Trouve Bob (Find Bob). Playful and interactive, these luminescent winter experiences shed light on Montréal's endless creativity and exuberant joviality, while providing the public with some colourful entertainment. Entre les rangs How about walking through a bucolic wheat field… in the heart of Montréal? That's just what this multisensory installation has in store. This ingenious light installation is made of 20,000 stylized wheat stalks bobbing in the winter wind, creating a fascinating effect on the place des Festivals. As they walk through the "wheat field", visitors will hear an all-new melody by Montréal artist Patrick Watson, sailing through space thanks to carefully placed speakers. Pure magic! Trouve Bob This video projection transforms the seven downtown building facades of the Quartier des spectacles into a large, dynamic game that simultaneously adds vivid animation and a dash of color to Montréal's winter. Inspired from Waldo of "Where's Waldo?" fame, playful Bob melts into a fantasy world replete with eclectic characters. The public is invited to find Bob in this vast urban canvas enhanced with various levels of difficulty. In true Montréal style, Entre les rangs and Trouve Bob offer an exciting and entertaining twist on traditional light therapy. Both installations are open to the public, so go ahead and lighten up in the Quartier des spectacles this winter!

It's no secret how much we love using images to teach students about arguments. Over the last several months we posted about image analysis, advertisements, and our favorite image resources from the National Archives and Library of Congress. While images can't replace text, they can engage even the most reluctant students.
We would be remiss in our discussion of annual Best of 2011 lists if we didn't show you some of the best images of the past year. Today's resources will give you a starting point as you look towards implementing image resources in your class
As a basic classroom resource for teaching students how to annotate images, this photo blog is invaluable. However, as 2011 comes to a close, they have assembled three different image collections all under the title The Year in Pictures. You will have to sift through the images in each collection to find useful resources but the time you invest is well worth it.

RINGGOLD, GA -- A man here says an old recipe in a box of papers that he and his wife purchased at a local estate sale could be the original Coca-Cola formula. Cliff Kluge, an antiques dealer, claims that he and his wife, Arlene, discovered the 1943 recipe in a box of personal papers they purchased at the estate auction of a famous Georgia chemist.
Kluge is auctioning off the typewritten, one-page document on eBay, where the starting bid is $5 million. He told several news sources that he doesn't expect the document will sell for the asking price, but he does think it is worth at least a few hundred thousand dollars.
The soft drink giant dismissed Kluge's claim, saying the single copy of the original recipe, which has been a tightly kept secret since the 19th century, is locked away. "Through the years, many have tried to crack the secret formula, but no one has been able to reproduce the 'real thing.' The real formula is safely tucked away in a vault at the world of Coca-Cola in Atlanta," Coke officials said in a statement.
In 2011, NPR's "This American Life" radio program published a formula that it claimed was the original Coca-Cola recipe. The primary flavors were: vanilla, lime juice, and oils from lemons, oranges, cinnamon and nutmeg. The beverage giant denied its authenticity.

Was going back and forth between a DL and a DB for the Colts. Don't worry, I got the Colts both in a GM Mock that I did.

Traded away Gresham to move up in the first. I think Eifert is better than Gresham and Orson Charles might end up being as good or better than Gresham in a few years.

great pick in the first round with Millner.
Not sure how I feel about the second. I dont know where I rate DT as a need, though someone with pass rush ability to spell in for McCoy and play beside him would be nice

I think Sutton can be what Brian Price was supposed to be for the Bucs.
What do you think about the McDonald pick?

WR though a need, is likely the consensus 3rd behind LB/QB.. I do grade out Keenan Allen around that spot, but not sure Bills pass on Te'o and Jarvis Jones who IMO can play OLB in a 4/3..
Its not bad but that scenario is unlikely.
I also think Terrance Williams will overtake Allen on most draft boards

Ezekiel is a top-5 player in the draft and I am guessing you have never seen/heard of Jackson?

Bad draft. DE can be a need but no need to move up for one. Plus Gresham is worth more than moving up 3 spots on the 1st. Give us Reid, Bernard and Greene
Big thanks to kacymcbryant18 for the sig....^^

I got a sample of CJ Curl Queen and loved it so I bought a large bottle. However, this seems more liquidy and whiter in color than my sample was. Is this really CQ? Maybe I am getting a different impression of it since it's a bigger container?

What round in boxing is there most likely to have a knock out?
What round in boxing is there most likely to have a knock out?
Suppose you would say early rounds - have more energy and power but is all relative to the fighter and their style. Some are explosive and go for it but others like to grind opponents down......
Why does it hurt so much????????
stupid question. it can happen in the first few seconds of ths first or in the last round.
How you expect to run with the wolves come night when you spend all day sparring with the puppies
If you need a friend, get a dog !
I saw an analysis of MMA matches and it showed that the vast majority of KOs and subs happen in the first round, then the drop off is quite quick.
I would imagine boxing to be the same but it would be interesting to see someone do research on it. Would make a good school/college/uni research project for someone.
http://www.ChrisReesAcademy.com - http://thetattooedchimp.blogspot.co.uk/
I.e. "There is X% more chance of a KO happening in the first Y rounds than during the rest of the fight"
There would obviously be exceptions (outliers).
The hard part with research like this is collating the info. It need's a lot of planning, it's boring and a total pain in the ass - which is why I didn't finish Uni!!

Modex 2012: WMS vendor unveils five apps, including mobile BI
TECSYS (Booth 612) a provider of warehouse management systems (WMS) and other distribution management software, unveiled five new solutions at a press conference Monday.

TECSYS (Booth 612) a provider of warehouse management systems (WMS) and other distribution management software, unveiled five new solutions at a press conference Monday.
The applications cover five areas, including a voice operations solution that adds simple visuals to device displays for added clarity and speed; supply management system (SMS), which supports a walk-in inventory store concept for customers; a customer self-service kiosk solution; a mobile solution for event tracking and delivery management; and a mobile business intelligence solution.
The solutions cover many areas, said Robert Colosino, VP of development, but they are all focused on driving that perfect order, while also bringing the accuracy and inventory management functionality found in distribution centers "closer to the customer" with apps such as the kiosk or SMS.
"You can extend customer reach beyond the warehouse," said Colosino. "If your warehousing just functions within its four walls, then it truly is a silo."
Modex 2012 is scheduled to be held February 6-9, 2012 in Atlanta's Georgia World Congress Center. The tradeshow will showcase the latest manufacturing, distribution and supply chain solutions in the material handling and logistics industry. Modern's complete Modex 2012 coverage.

Charles asks:
Can I switch from 32bit processor to 64bit processor?
Hi, Charles. If I'm reading your question correctly, you're asking if you can change the processor in your PC from a 32-bit processor to a 64-bit processor, and not switch back and forth between the two processors, right? The reason that I ask is because, as far as I know, there's no way to install two processors on a PC at once. That would require having two motherboards.
The short answer is that it depends on your motherboard. An older motherboard can't physically have a 64 bit processor installed on it.
The longer answer is this. If your motherboard can handle a 64 bit processor, then yes, you can switch out your old processor for a new one, as long as the processor is compatible with the motherboard. You CAN do this yourself, but if you haven't had some experience at changing items out on a motherboard, I would recommend leaving this to the pros. The following goes for desktops. For laptops, the motherboard and processor are typically proprietary to the computer, so you'll just have to buy a new laptop. Actually, even for a desktop, it may be less money and trouble in the long run to just invest in a new computer so that all of the parts are designed to work together. Also, before you attempt this, make sure that you've backed up your old PC and have a copy of Windows on hand, you may have to reinstall.
If you want to do it yourself, here's how you do it:
1) Completely disconnect your computer from external power. I know that this seems like a "no-brainer", but I have met some no-brainers – so there you go.
2) One side of your computer case should open easily, this is usually the side with the fan. Open it.
3) Unplug the CPU fan from any connectors and very carefully unscrew it from the motherboard.
4) Remove the CPU fan and open your CPU clasps. This is usually a clip that you just have to open.
5) Gently remove the old processor. These are held in place partially with a special compound called "thermal paste". Your new processor should have come with a tube. If it didn't, buy some. You need it. The thermal putty on the old processor may have dried, in which case you just lift the old processor out. If it hasn't, you will have to gently work the processor loose.
6) Put a generous amount of thermal putty on the underside (the blank side) of your new processor, and fit it in place.
7) Reverse the above steps to close your CPU clasps, reinstall your fan and put your machine back together.
Voila! If the computer gods have blessed you, you now have a working 64-bit machine.
I cannot stress enough, however, how easy it is to mess your machine up, so it's always best to leave these things to the pros or buy a new machine.
Hope this helps.

Nipple discharge is any fluid that comes out of the nipple area in your breast.
Discharge from breasts; Milk secretions; Lactation - abnormal; Witch's milk; Galactorrhea; Inverted nipple; Nipple problems
Sometimes discharge from your nipples is okay and will get better on its own. You are more likely to have nipple discharge as you get older and if you have been pregnant at least once.
Nipple discharge is usually not a symptom of breast cancer. But it is important to find out what is causing it and to get treatment. Here are some reasons for nipple discharge:
Sometimes, babies can have nipple disharge. Your doctor or nurse will call this "witch's milk." It is caused by hormones from the mother before birth, and should go away in 2 weeks.
Cancers that can cause nipple discharge are:
Nipple discharge that is NOT normal is:
Nipple discharge is more likely to be normal if:
The color of the discharge does not tell you whether it is normal or not. The discharge can look milky, clear, yellow, green, or brown.
Squeezing your nipple to check for discharge can make it worse. Leaving them alone may make the nipple discharge go away.
Your doctor or nurse will examine you and ask questions about your symptoms and medical history.
Tests that may be done may include:
Once the cause of your nipple discharge is found, your doctor or nurse can recommend ways to treat it. You may:
If all of your tests are normal, may not need treatment. You should have another mammogram and physical exam within 1 year.
In most cases, nipple problems are not breast cancer. These problems will either go away with the right treatment, or they can be watched closely over time.
Nipple discharge may be a symptom of breast cancer or a pituitary tumor.
Skin changes around the nipple may be caused by Paget's disease.
If you are a man and have nipple discharge, make an appointment with your doctor or nurse right away.
