Several studies provided compelling evidence of hybridization between Homo sapiens and other archaic hominin populations. After 90 years scholars completed the 21-volume Chicago Assyrian Dictionary. Researchers determined that children helped make cave art. They also suggested earlier dates for horse domestication and discovered the intact 13th-century hull of one of Kublai Khan's ships. Researchers found evidence of chocolate at an Olmec site.
Key developments in the field of physical anthropology in 2011 were highlighted by rapidly growing evidence for hybridization between Homo sapiens and multiple archaic hominin populations in different geographic locations. In 2010 an international team of geneticists and anthropologists led by American geneticist David Reich and Swedish geneticist Svante Pääbo published the nuclear genome of a 30,000–50,000-year-old female from Denisova Cave in the Altai Mountains of Siberia. This individual belonged to a group of archaic hominins provisionally designated as "the Denisovans," and comparisons with the Vindija Cave Neanderthal and 12 present-day human genome sequences determined that the Denisovans were a sister group of the Neanderthals. Denisovan DNA sequences diverged from those of Neanderthals 640,000 years ago. Surprisingly, 4–6% of the genome of present-day Melanesians from Papua New Guinea and Bougainville Island came from the Denisovans, while Neanderthal DNA made up an additional 2.5%. Two Denisovan molar teeth were recovered in addition to the original juvenile finger bone that provided the nuclear DNA sequence. The primitive morphology and very large size of these molars supported the DNA-based conclusion that the Denisovans were a distinct population of archaic hominins.
In 2011 a subsequent Reich-Pääbo study with a different international team of collaborators quantified the Denisovan admixture in 33 additional populations from Asia and Oceania. Data on over 350,000 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), or genetic variations, were assembled for 243 individuals. Several modern groups—including Aboriginal Australians, Polynesians, Fijians, individuals from eastern Indonesia, and a Negrito group from the Philippines called the Mamanwa—inherited genetic material from the Denisovans. On the other hand, mainland East Asians, western Indonesians, and Negrito groups from Malaysia and the Andaman Islands contained no Denisova genetic material. To explain this geographic distribution, Reich and Pääbo hypothesized that gene flow from Denisovans to modern humans occurred in Southeast Asia after the migration of a single group of modern humans from Africa became the source of several subsequent dispersals to southern and eastern Asia. The proposed Southeast Asian location for the Denisovan homeland and human admixture suggested an extremely wide ecological and geographic distribution for the Denisovans, extending from the tropics to the deciduous forests of Siberia. Given that modern inhabitants of the island of Flores in Indonesia had detectable Denisovan genetic material, a phylogenetic relationship between the Denisovans and H. floresiensis—a hominin whose existence as a distinct species continued to be questioned by many paleontologists—was a distinct possibility that awaited the discovery of ancient DNA from the Flores fossil record.
Eske Willerslev, a Danish geneticist, headed an international team that published the first Australian Aboriginal genome from a hair sample collected almost a century earlier. Approximately 450,000 high-confidence SNPs were compared with data representing 1,220 individuals from 79 modern human populations. The Australian genome clustered with the Highland Papua New Guinea samples and was positioned between South and East Asians. The Bougainville Islanders and Aeta people of the Philippines were the next-closest matches to the Australian genome. The Denisovan and Australian Aboriginal genomes displayed almost as much allele sharing as the Denisovan-Papuan comparison. (An allele is an alternate form of a gene.) The authors proposed a two-wave model for the peopling of Asia; a single out-of-Africa migration, which occurred 75,000–62,000 years ago along a southern Asian route to Australia, was followed by a second migration to Europe and mainland Asia 38,000–25,000 years ago. Admixture with Denisovans may have occurred in Melanesia or in southern Eurasia during the early migratory wave. However, substantial admixture and population replacement involving the two waves of H. sapiens also probably occurred with the Aboriginal Australians, Papua New Guinea Highlanders, and the Aeta as remnants of the first dispersal. Thus, the contemporary Australian Aboriginal people were deemed to be the direct descendants of the first human inhabitants of Australia, who arrived there approximately 50,000 years ago.
British biologist Peter Parham from Stanford University and an international team of geneticists discovered that adaptive introgression (gene infiltration from one gene pool to another) of archaic alleles from Neanderthals and Denisovans to H. sapiens had significantly shaped modern human immune systems. Specifically, human leukocyte antigen (HLA) haplotypes carrying functionally distinct alleles spread from these two archaic hominin groups to modern human populations in Eurasia and Oceania. (Haplotypes are sets of alleles that tend to be inherited together.) Later these alleles moved from modern Eurasians to Africans by back-migration. Six Denisovan and six Neanderthal HLA alleles were analyzed. Five of the six Denisovan alleles were identical to their modern human counterparts, whereas all six Neanderthal alleles were identical to modern human HLA Class I alleles. The authors estimated the putative archaic HLA-A system ancestry to be more than 50% in Europe, more than 70% in Asia, and more than 95% in parts of Papua New Guinea. These estimates for HLA Class I genetic material suggested that limited interbreeding with archaic humans and the subsequent incorporation of foreign DNA conferred selective advantages that, over time, significantly shaped the modern human immune system outside Africa.
Polish-born Canadian biologist Damian Labuda and his colleagues determined that a region of the modern human X-chromosomal DNA known as dys44 (which is part of the dystrophin gene) contained a haplotype, B006, that came from admixture with Neanderthals. They analyzed 6,092 X chromosomes from modern humans from all of Earth's inhabited continents and found that the average frequency of this Neanderthal-derived segment was 9% for all populations outside Africa. Interbreeding was thought to have taken place prior to, or during the very early stages of, the worldwide expansion of H. sapiens between 80,000 and 50,000 years ago. The authors also discovered the B006 haplotype in Africa; however, each of these instances was ascribed to gene flow from non-African modern human sources.
American geneticist Michael Hammer's research group at the University of Arizona collaborated with American biologist Jeffrey Wall from the University of California, San Francisco, to test models of interbreeding between archaic hominins and modern humans in Africa. Data were gathered from 61 noncoding regions in a sample of three sub-Saharan African populations (the Mandenka, Biaka Pygmies, and San). Three candidate genetic regions that fit the criteria for being archaic DNA were identified, and the distribution of these regions was assessed in a sample of about 500 sub-Saharan individuals from 11 additional populations. Of the 14 populations studied, only the Mbuti Pygmies possessed all three introgressive variants. Extensive simulation results rejected the hypothesis that no admixture occurred. The results also suggested that 2% of the genetic material in contemporary African populations introgressed from an archaic hominin population into modern humans approximately 35,000 years ago, most probably in Central Africa.
Such extensive archaic introgression, occurring on an almost global scale, was documented in a variety of different genetic systems. This evidence suggested that genetic exchange between morphologically divergent populations may have been a common feature of human evolution, and the multiregional model of human origins—which posited that discrete archaic populations of Homo evolved locally in Africa, Asia, and Europe and contributed genes to modern Homo sapiens—thus gained significant genetic support in 2011.

Our Stories
Trevor Shanklin
Political Science Major
Nowata, OK
Trevor Shanklin, a Rogers State University senior from Nowata, Okla., returned from the Washington Center Internship with experience and skills that would earn him a job as the grassroots director for the Mark Wayne Mullen congressional campaign.
While in D.C., he interned at the National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC), first in finance and then later in the political department. There he tracked candidates from across the country, assisted with donor meetings and contributed to projects for numerous political directors.
"The Washington Center Internship completely set me up for what I am doing now," Shanklin said. "The skills I learned from working for the NRCC are invaluable."
Campaign management, public relations, blogging and new media are just a few of the workshops and training courses that Shanklin participated in during his time as an intern.
"One of the most important things I learned was to jump out there and be aggressive," Shaklin said. "Asking to do things is helpful and people appreciate that you are eager and willing to learn. Don't sit back and wait for something to happen, you should go out and make it happen."
During his time at RSU, the Political Science major has been involved in numerous different organizations. He is a member of Young Americans for Freedom, College Republicans, the Oklahoma Intercollegiate Legislature, and the Student Veterans Association and has acted as a senator for the Student Government Association.
He served as a combat medic in the 1/279 Infantry Battalion when they deployed to Iraq in 2008. Before his deployment he was an active duty member (AGR) where he served as a Recruiting and Retention NCO throughout Northeast Oklahoma.
Shanklin is now fully immersed in the political scene, but it wasn't always this way.
"Just a year ago I was a machinist in Nowata and politics was something I did in my spare time. When RSU gave me the opportunity to go to Washington D.C. to do this internship, my dream of working in politics became a reality," the 27-year-old said. "I was able to meet Ron Paul, Steve Scully, Herman Cain, Jimmy Carter and numerous other influential figures in the political realm."
Shanklin plans to take the fall semester off to focus his full attention on the campaign. After that, he hopes to finish his degree and eventually move to Washington, D.C. to work in politics.
"If it wasn't for the internship, I would have never known this was out there and I wouldn't have known how to get myself involved in this exciting campaign," Shanklin said. "My time in Washington is the reason I was able to become the grassroots director for the Mark Wayne Mullen congressional campaign."

On Tuesday, Feb. 11, the fifth grade students at Merriwether Elementary visited USC Aiken to hear the Symphony Orchestra Augusta. For most students, this concert was their first live symphony experience.
In Mrs. Bowens music class, the students began preparing for the concert months before the event. The fifth-graders rehearsed one concert selection so they could sing along or play their recorders with the symphony. When the orchestra began its first number, the concertgoers were invited to play and sing with the musicians.
Students from Mrs. Jennings class had positive comments about the symphony.
Jonah Glover and Andrea Boulware said they liked watching Maestro Zs emotions as he moved to the music.
Andrew Kneece enjoyed hearing the youngest musician on stage, Daniel Coffin, play a featured selection.
Tyler Johnson commented that he liked how Maestro Z showed lots of emotion, and he liked hearing the percussion section yell, Go Cocks!
Jake Roberson loved watching the tuba players face turn red.
Elsie Delgado summed up her experience by saying, The concert was fun, interesting, and something everyone would like to watch.

The Federal Reserve Board last month proposed new rules intended to strengthen the oversight of U.S. operations of foreign banks. The proposal implements provisions of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act in a manner that addresses the risks associated with the increased complexity, interconnectedness, and concentration of the U.S. operations of foreign banking organizations.
The proposal generally applies to foreign banking organizations with a U.S. banking presence and total global consolidated assets of $50 billion or more. More stringent standards are proposed for foreign banking organizations with combined U.S. assets of $50 billion or more.
The proposal would require foreign banking organizations with a significant U.S. presence to create an intermediate holding company over their U.S. subsidiaries, which, according to the Fed, would help facilitate consistent and enhanced supervision and regulation of the U.S. operations of these foreign banks. Foreign banks would also be required to maintain stronger capital and liquidity positions in the United States, helping to increase the resiliency of their U.S. operations.
Under the proposed rules, a foreign banking organization with both $50 billion or more in global consolidated assets and U.S. subsidiaries with $10 billion or more in total assets generally would be required to organize its U.S. subsidiaries under a single U.S. intermediate holding company (IHC). Such a structure would create a platform for the consistent supervision and regulation of the U.S. operations of foreign banking organizations and help facilitate the resolution of failing U.S. operations of a foreign bank if needed.
Second, IHCs of foreign banking organizations would be subject to the same risk-based and leverage capital standards applicable to U.S. bank holding companies. This proposed requirement is intended to bolster the consolidated capital positions of the IHCs as well as promote a level playing field among all banking firms operating in the United States. IHCs with $50 billion or more in consolidated assets also would be subject to the Federal Reserve's capital plan rule.
Third, the U.S. operations of foreign banking organizations with combined U.S. assets of $50 billion or more would be required to meet enhanced liquidity risk-management standards, conduct liquidity stress tests, and hold a 30-day buffer of highly liquid assets. The liquidity requirements are intended to make the U.S. operations of foreign banking organizations more resilient to funding shocks during times of stress.
The proposal also includes measures regarding capital stress tests, single-counterparty credit limits, overall risk management, and early remediation. The Federal Reserve is proposing a substantial phase-in period to give foreign banking organizations time to adjust to the new rules. Comments on the proposed rules will be accepted through March 31, 2013.

sean at the East West Players 48th Anniversary Visionary Awards
Sean at the City Year Los Angeles 'Spring Break' Fundraiser
Sean to appear on "The Maya Rudolph Show" Special which is Set to Air on NBC May 19th
Andy Samberg, Kristen Bell, Fred Armisen, Chris Parnell, Craig Robinson, Sean Hayes and Musical Guest Janelle Monae to Appear While Raphael Saadiq Serves as Bandleader
UNIVERSAL CITY, Calif. – April 15, 2014 – Starring the Emmy Award nominee and beloved "Saturday Night Live" veteran, NBC has scheduled "The Maya Rudolph Show" for Monday, May 19 (10 p.m. ET/PT).
Rudolph, David Javerbaum, Erin David and Dave Becky will produce, with Lorne Michaels serving as executive producer. "The Maya Rudolph Show" is from Universal Television.
Revisiting the classic variety show format, "The Maya Rudolph Show" will feature guest stars Andy Samberg ("Brooklyn Nine-Nine"), Kristen Bell ("Veronica Mars"), Fred Armisen ("Portlandia," "Late Night with Seth Meyers"), Chris Parnell ("Archer"), Craig Robinson ("Mr. Robinson") and Sean Hayes ("Hollywood Game Night").
Grammy Award-nominated singer-songwriter Janelle Monae will serve as the musical guest. R&b singer-producer Raphael Saadiq will be the bandleader.
Rudolph was part of "Saturday Night Live" from 2000-11, performing in hundreds of sketches and earning an Emmy nomination in 2012 for guest actress in a comedy series.
In 2011, Rudolph co-starred in the box office hit comedy "Bridesmaids," and was nominated with a Screen Actors Guild Award and Broadcast Film Critics Award. On the big screen, her other credits include "The Way Way Back," "Grown Ups" and "Away We Go."
On the small screen, she recently appeared on NBC's "Up All Night."

NBC Cancels 'Sean Saves the World'
NBC has canceled freshman comedy Sean Saves the World.
The network initially ordered 13 episodes of the comedy starring Sean Hayes as a gay single father and picked up five additional installments. Of the 18 episodes ordered, 14 have been filmed and 12 have aired. NBC may likely air the remaining two episodes after its coverage of the Winter Olympics, but the four other episodes will not be produced as production on the Universal Television comedy has been shut down, The Hollywood Reporter has confirmed.
Sean Saves the World had an uphill ratings battle from the start. Unlike Thursday neighbor The Michael J. Fox Show, which NBC committed to airing a full 22 episodes, Sean Saves the World was middling out of the gate with a 1.4 rating among adults 18-49 and 4.4 million viewers for its October premiere. Things never got better. A recent move to 9:30 p.m. didn't goose ratings, with the latest episode averaging just a 0.7 in the key demo and a series low 2.6 million.
Season-to-date, Sean Saves the World is averaging a 1.4 rating with adults 18-49 in live-plus-7 returns. The modest 27 percent jump from its live airings (1.1 adults) shows that time-shifted viewers were never that attracted. The still modest Michael J. Fox, by comparison, at least jumps 50 percent in DVR use to average a 1.8 rating in the demo.
For Hayes, however, his Hazy Mills production still has a relationship with NBC, withGrimm continuing to be a sturdy performer on Fridays and unscripted entry Hollywood Game Night returning to the schedule for a winter run after a solid summer bow.
This marks NBC's second comedy cancellation of the 2013-14 season. Sean Saves the World joins Welcome to the Family, which was yanked after only a handful of low-rated episodes.

Coyle has been out of work since he was sacked by Bolton in October and will replace Roberto Martinez, who left to join Everton following the Latics' relegation.
Former England manager Steve McClaren is thought to have been a frontrunner for the role but chairman Dave Whelan has opted for the experience of a man who led Burnley to promotion from the Championship in 2009.
It is understood that Coyle has agreed a one-year rolling contract but stands to bank lucrative bonuses if he guides the club back to the Premier League at the first attempt.
Before plotting a promotion charge, he will have to settle the futures of key players like Arouna Kone and James McCarthy, though it is thought Wigan have yet to receive any enquiries for their star men.

Final Fantasy XIII misses 2007 on PS3
With the PlayStation 3 flagging across all territories, many were hoping that a swift release of Final Fantasy XIII from RPG heavyweight Square Enix would help to ease the situation somewhat. Hopes of that, though, are fading fast.
Since only a few screenshots and a small trailer of the highly anticipated role-playing game Final Fantasy XIII have been banded around, people were desperately hoping that more media would be revealed at the Square Enix Party 2007 that took place a couple of weeks ago. Whilst this hope was fulfilled, sadly it seems that all hopes of the game hitting later on in 2007, even in Japan, have all but disappeared into the ether.
Over on IGN's PlayStation 3 channel it is being reported that the RPG behemoth's President, Yoichi Wada, has sealed the game's fate, at least until the end of the current fiscal year. Speaking at a company financial briefing in Tokyo, Japan a few days ago he stated:
"It will still take a bit more time. At the very least, [a release] this fiscal year is definitely out of the question."
- Yoichi Wada, President of Square Enix.
What this means is that not only will the second most wanted game in Japan (behind Square Enix's Dragon Quest IX for the Nintendo DS) miss out on the lucrative 2007 holiday period in the Land of the Rising Sun, but will certainly not make an appearance until 1st April, 2008 at the very earliest. Whilst some people have stated that there are regular misunderstandings when translating from Japanese to English, it must be stressed that Wada-san was extremely clear with his expression. Unless Square Enix attempts to cash in on the lucrative holiday period of Golden Week, which starts at the end of April, PlayStation 3 owners could well have to wait until a stronger period later in 2008 before the game hits the streets, meaning the US and Europe will possibly even have to sit tight until 2009!
Sad news indeed, but stick with Playstatic for further updates…

More than 700,000 people in American suffer from Crohn's, an inflammatory bowel disease that can be embarrassing and disruptive to their lifestyle.
This condition can cause persistent diarrhea, blood mucus in the stool, a sudden urgency to go to the bathroom, pain and cramping in the abdomen.
People with Crohn's also may experience excessive tiredness, night sweats, a loss of appetite and weight loss.
"Usually, a colonoscopy is the best way to diagnose Crohn's," said physician Vinod C. Thakkar of the Surgery and Endoscopy Center, located at 3201 Physicians Way, in Sebring. "That way they can diagnose the Crohn's if it is in the colon (large intestine), rectum, or ileum (small intestine)," he said.
Symptoms of this chronic illness may be caused by inflammation in the gastrointestinal tract. Thakkar, who is board certified in gastroenterology, explained that the term inflammatory bowel disease is used to describe either Crohn's disease or ulcerated colitis.
There are five types of Crohn's disease:
1. Ileocolitis affects the colon and the end of the ileum and is most common. Ileocolitis sufferers usually experience significant weight loss.
2. Ileitis is found in the small intestines and, in advanced cases, could lead to an abscess in the abdomen.
3. Gastroduodenal Crohn's affects the stomach and the duodenum (beginning of the small intestine). Vomiting, nausea and loss of appetite may occur for sufferers of this condition.
4. Jejunoileitis Crohn's symptoms manifest as abdominal pain, cramps and diarrhea after eating.
5. Crohn's Colitis presents with symptoms such as rectal bleeding with ulcerations or abscesses of the anus, skin lesions or joint pain.
Though it isn't clear what causes Crohn's, the disease does run in families, with up to 20 percent of sufferers having a close relative with IBD. The onset of the disease is most common in people 20 to 30 years of age.
Mike McCready, the lead guitarist for the rock group Pearl Jam, has suffered with IBD since 1987 and has become an outspoken advocate for public awareness. He shared his experience with the debilitating illness in a Dec. 7 article on "Crohn's Awareness Week" in the Huffington Post.
"I was successful beyond my wildest dreams musically but very sick physically. I had accidents on stage," McCready said. "My band knew about my disease and was supportive, but for the most part, I didn't talk about it; I was ashamed."
Webmd.com stated that anti-diarrheal medication, fluid replacement and antibiotics also can be helpful in treating Crohn's. It explained, "The immune system of a person with Crohn's may treat bacteria, food, and other substances as foreign invaders, leading to chronic inflammation from the accumulation of white blood cells in the lining of the intestines and resulting in ulceration and injury to the tissues."
"There are many treatment options," said Thakkar, including the medications sulfasalazine, corticosteroids like prednisone or Remicade. He added that avoiding foods that cause flare-ups, like spicy foods or dairy products, might be helpful in controlling the condition.
One in six people have some form of IBD throughout their life, but that doesn't mean they have Crohn's disease, said gastroenterologist Sedat Ekici, with Florida Hospital Gastro Center, located at 4421 Sun 'n Lake Blvd., Suite D, in Sebring.
Ekici said that it is important to watch for blood in the stool, active ulcers in the mouth, leakage of the bowel or iron-deficient anemia, all of which could signal the need for tests.
Ekici said that if you have no family history or symptoms you can have a routine colonoscopy at the age of 50. If that test comes out clear, retesting can be done every five to 10 years.
"If you are bleeding, if you have change in bowel habits, if you have unexpected weight loss, if you have something in your abdomen that becomes alarming, then it is time for you to have a colonoscopy," said Ekici.
For more information, call Thakkar at 385-5129 or Ekici at 465-3462.

I enjoyed the food but they rush a lot in the service
Posted by Right Around The Corner on 12/27/2011
I don't think I have ever eaten at a better Chinese Take Out place! The service is amazing. I don't think I've ever felt unwelcome. They are extremely nice even calling people "amigo" or "amiga"! The food is the best it can get for a chinese take out place. Their food is always cooked well and there is never any long wait. You get a great bargain for the food you're getting; the prices are extremely reasonable. All in all, I am always recommending people to this place. The food is great and the service is pleasant. All the better since I live a couple of steps away from the place.
Posted by Hard working guy on 08/15/2010
I wanted so bad to like this place seeing that I am right around the corner and it would have been convenient.. first off the place smells bad, really bad.I ordered won ton soup and there was dust and dirt floating in it. the pork fried rice was not edible and the chicken dish I purchased was raw.. I was forced to throw the entire meal away...

Home > Membership & Services > Students > Competitions > Xtreme
IEEEXtreme is a global online challenge in which teams of IEEE Student members, supported by an IEEE Student Branch and advised and proctored by an IEEE member, compete in a 24-hour time span against each other to solve a set of programming problems.
Yes, all the members of a team have to be either Student members or graduate Student members of the IEEE. This is also an opportunity to promote IEEE membership on your campus and help recruit new Student members using the online join process.
Yes, proctors should be an IEEE member of a higher membership grade (i.e., not an undergraduate or graduate Student member).
Yes, each Student Branch may have an unlimited number of teams, consisting of three IEEE Student members or graduate Student members and one proctor. One proctor can supervise a maximum of eight teams. Note that a university without an IEEE Student Branch can also form a team of the required number of IEEE Student members and a proctor.
Problems can only be answered in any of the supported languages (C, C++, C#, Java, Python, Ruby, Perl, and PHP).
More information on compiler information can be found in the IEEEXtreme 8.0 Rules document (PDF, 1.5 MB).
No, not really. Apart from the fact that we sound similar, there's little in common: Extreme programming (or XP) is a software engineering methodology; IEEEXtreme is a programming contest.
Teams are entitled to use any methodology they want to solve the problems as long as it works correctly.
The unofficial results will be available in HackerRank at the close of the competition. From the close of the competition through 31 October the IEEEXtreme Technical team will be evaluating code submissions. The official results will be communicated on or about the second week of November. Winners will be contacted by IEEE directly.
Information regarding the scoring criteria for IEEEXtreme 8.0 can be found in the official Rules Document (PDF, 1.5 MB).
Yes. For a start, taking advanced courses does not mean you're necessarily better at programming. More importantly, this is all about the experience. IEEEXtreme is a lot of fun, and will help you face real-world problems that you may not see during college
All active participants in the competition will receive a digital certificate, and T-shirt. "Active participant" is described as a team who makes a reasonable attempt at solving a problem.
IEEE is excited to bring forth a new set of top three prizes to IEEEXtreme 8.0. The top prizes are being finalized. Please check back shortly to see what the top teams will receive for IEEEXtreme 8.0.
A few sample problems from IEEEXtreme 2.0 are available.
The proctor should just make sure that it is the team members working on the problems and no outside help is being provided from other individuals. The proctor should ensure that the student teams are not sharing code, which is strictly prohibited. In general, proctors help ensure that the students are comfortable and are able to get food, water, and exercise during the 24 hours. The main goal is for the participants to have fun. The students do not have to be isolated.
Sleep is part of making sure the team members are comfortable. The team members can alternate getting some sleep, and you can make your own arrangements for sleeping.
There may be some surprises, about every six to eight hours, so it is important to keep monitoring the contest.
The browsers that are supported to run HackerRank for IEEEXtreme 8.0 are: IE 11, Chrome v 36, and Firefox v 31. Please consult each browser's Web site for more information on latest stable updates.
If you are unable to secure a proctor for IEEEXtreme 8.0, please consult the Guide to Finding a Proctor (PDF, 127 KB).
If you know that all members of your team are eligible to participate in IEEEXtreme 8.0 and you receive this error message during registration, please e-mail email@example.com with your team name, member number, and information about the participants who are receiving the error.
As a member of IEEE, you'll receive access to select content, product discounts, and more.

Jakarta. With its initial public offering closing on Thursday, Krakatau Steel announced on the same day that the first stage of its expansion plan had been completed, adding 15 percent to its production capacity.
The nation's largest steel maker said it had raised its total milling capacity to 3.15 million tons annually after refurbishing a factory last month.
"With this increase, Krakatau will be able to produce broader ranges of steel grades, as well as bridging the gap in national steel demand," he said.
To achieve the overall gain in capacity, the Banten-based firm upgraded its hot strip operation.
"We have just finished increasing our hot strip mill facility's production capacity from two million tons per year to 2.4 million tons per year," said Fazwar Bujang, Krakatau's president director.
Capacity for cold rolled coil, the company's other main product, stood at 750,000 tons per year.
Fazwar said the hot strip mill expansion began in 2008 and had so far cost $230 million.
He said the upgrade would continue until capacity reached 3.5 million tons annually by 2013, with overall steel capacity expected to reach 4.25 million tons.
"To do that, Krakatau will need another $143 million" in investment, he added.
Higher steel output would allow Krakatau to tap increasing demand for the material in Indonesia as the country aims to more than double spending on infrastructure, including roads, ports and bridges, to $140 billion over the next five years.
President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono has pledged to boost economic growth to an average of 6.6 percent annually by the end of his term in 2014.
With the nation short on locally produced steel, Krakatau's prospects for growth are strong.
"The shortage in hot rolled coil, Krakatau's major product, is significant. Around 40 percent of domestic HRC demand is imported," Fazwar said.
According to CRU, a London-based consulting firm, Indonesia imported 1.4 million tons of HRC in the first half of this year, while domestic supply was 2.2 million tons.
Last year, 1.9 million tons of HRC was imported to cover about 30 percent of domestic demand.
The mill revitalization is part of Krakatau's wider expansion scheme, which includes not only boosting capacity but building power plants to drive its operations.
The $1.3 billion program was expected to be completed by 2014, Fazwar said.
He said the next phase of the expansion would involve increasing its steel slab plant's production capacity by 37 percent to 2.5 million tons annually over the next two years.
Krakatau's production is also expected to receive a boost from a $6 billion partnership with South Korea's Pohang Iron and Steel (Posco) to build a factory with six million tons of annual capacity.
The state-owned steelmaker's IPO, which opened on Monday, aims to raise Rp 2.68 trillion ($300 million) from selling a 20 percent equity stake.
However, the relatively low offering price has raised concerns about possible graft.

The Kitchen Debate
In July 1959, Vice President Richard Nixon traveled to Moscow to open the U.S. Trade and Cultural Fair in Sokolniki Park. In the kitchen of the exhibit's model house built by General Electric, Nixon and Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev began an impromptu series of debates on the merits of capitalism and communism. An audio segment of one of the exchanges, which was filmed by the American company Ampex on the first videotape recorder, illustrates the Cold War tensions simmering beneath the surface.

I definitely get what you're saying. There are some points here and there where it feels like there's a galaxy threatening war going on, but they are few and far between. On the other hand, I don't think it could have been any other way. It's a linear shooter, just like ME2, with no space exploration to speak of. I mean, it would be pretty impressive if they actually did manage to make it feel like there's a huge war going on, don't you think?
I'll decide how I truly feel about it after I finish it, but so far I must say I'm not disappointed at all. It's exactly what I was expecting it to be. Not what I wanted it to be, but everything I expected it to be. Most of my disappointment came after I played ME2.

The first threadfin dragonfish to be described was caught near the Portuguese island Madeira. It is now known to occur throughout the Atlantic, Pacific and Indian oceans.
Dragonfishes in general feed upon smaller fishes such as bristlemouths and lanternfish, and will migrate vertically upwards at night for hundreds of metres in pursuit of their prey.
Echiostoma barbatum has been recorded from depths as great as 1,900m, but has also been collected from very near the surface.
Echiostoma barbatum is not currently regarded as endangered.

There was one place that everyone said we should visit and that was Sedona. Used as a backdrop in many westerns, we were told it was a fantastic place and not to be missed.
So we decided to miss our morning lay in, get up really early and drive the 176 miles to Sedona. Did we enjoy it???? See what karen has to say.
The cowboy theme has run through most of our holiday including our trip to RAW HIDE and authentic town with a jail (as you saw yesterday), saloon and gunfighters who will shoot at each other for any reason.
And if you were wondering how I got out of jail (I thought I could get away with not showing this but Karen insisted. I wonder why?)
And if anyone knows how to turn the video so that you don't have to lay down to watch it, please let me know.
More later including shopping trip to Scrapbooks Etc

MADISON, Wis. - After months of bitter debate, Gov. Scott Walker has signed a bill that relaxes Wisconsin's mining regulations.
The governor signed the measure Monday at Oldenburg Group Inc., a Rhinelander mining equipment manufacturer. He has planned a ceremonial signing in Milwaukee later in the day.
The signing completes a major victory for Walker and his fellow Republicans. They've been working for the better part of two years to pass a bill to help Gogebic Taconite open a huge iron mine near Lake Superior. Republicans say the mine will create thousands of jobs.
Environmental groups contend the legislation will lead to pollution and are mulling lawsuits challenging the bill's provisions. The Bad River Band of Lake Superior Chippewa is considering a legal challenge as well as occupying the mine site.
The Bad River Band of Lake Superior's leader says the tribe plans to immediately begin raising money for a possible lawsuit challenging Republicans' polarizing mining changes.
The Bad River's reservation lies just north of the mine site. The tribe fears run-off from the mine's waste rock would contaminate the reservation's water and destroy their cherished wild rice beds.
Tribal Chairman Mike Wiggins Jr. tells The Associated Press the tribe plans to begin a fundraising drive by the end of the week to generate enough money to mount a court challenge.

Editorial: Drug, alcohol abuse fight gets boost
Helping our youth survive adolescence got a million-dollar shot in the arm earlier this week.
The Center for the Study of Adolescent Risk and Resilience will soon open at Duke University. The school's Center for Child and Family Policy received a five-year, $6.7 million grant from the National Institute on Drug Abuse.
Leaders of the project are seeking to enhance efforts already in place, build on smart people coming together creating bigger and better research ideas, and they'll focus on biology and behavior with teens' drinking and drug use.
There's no shortage of test material, and that's an unfortunate fact.
According to the National Institutes of Health, nearly half of all U.S. students have used an illicit drug by their senior year of high school. That's every other kid.
Alcohol-related deaths among young people number about 5,000 annually, with another 200,000 visiting emergency rooms.
Campaigns with catchy slogans, grassroots local efforts and well-funded national awareness has helped in the fight to keep our youngsters healthy. And those efforts should not stop.
But awareness alone never figured to be enough. At some point, the proverbial "next level" has to be sought, followed by another "next level."
This is one of the "nexts."
Some of the toughest follow-up questions educators have posed to students for generations is "Why?" An answer isn't good enough without explaining it, and researchers in this new endeavor hope to have more of the "why" answers that can help save lives.
Rick Hoyle, a professor with the center at Duke, believes knowing what brain activity causes people to use will help bring to light how to intervene. Policy may be a by-product. The in-depth study will generate data from the brain's areas involved in self-control.
With any research project, there is no guarantee of what can be found. Similarly and with great hope, there is also no limit for the gains.
This is an area of society that begs for gains. Alcohol and drug use not only have fatal consequences, they also have long-lasting impairments for the living.
We won't see quick-fix answers, but we do believe progress in the fight against drug and alcohol abuse will be made. And that's something we can use.

Idaho or russet potatoes, peeled
2 (10.5 ounce) cans
cream of chicken soup
2 cups
sour cream
1/2 cup
butter, melted
1 cup
chopped green onion
2 1/2 cups
shredded Cheddar cheese
1 cup
crushed corn flakes, or more if needed
1/4 cup
butter, melted
Really good! I think that I'll cut the potatoes a bit thinner next time. At 1 inch thick, they seemed a bit undercooked. Still tasted great though!
Russet potatoes come in such a wide range of sizes, saying 8 potatoes will get you no uniformity in the recipe. I halved the recipe and used 4 medium sized potatoes. I only had enough potatoes to make one layer in the 9x9" pan. Third, why are we cutting in such large pieces? Cutting them so large makes for awkward serving. I ended up having to mash the potato and sauce together on my plate in order to eat it all together. Fourth, the amount of butter in the sauce is too much. There is a huge grease slick in the pan. I did use unsalted butter and therefore my potatoes needed salt and pepper. It was very bland and greasy before. I had to add some dried minced onion because I didn't have enough green onions. I also used Panko bread crumbs instead of corn flakes. I was happy to try the recipe and give it a "face" but I won't be making it again.

Very good! The taste was perfect, original and filling. I did follow the advice of the other reviewer and sliced the potatoes much thinner than the one inch thickness that the recipe called for. Turned out to be cooked all the way through and delicious. The only other thing I did different was to have added a little bit more cheese, considering I had some extra (about a cup extra), but it turned out to be nice and cheesy, gooey and delicious. I made this dish to compliment a ham that I had made and it served extremely well. Very good dish! Would definitely make again and in the future.
This is a fantastic recipe! It's a true classic Mormon Utah dish! My whole family loved this recipe...even my 17-month old couldn't get enough of it! I've been looking everywhere for a dish like this that doesn't use fake or frozen potatoes...I wanted real potatoes and this is perfect! I added some salt and pepper to make it taste even better!
I altered the recipe so that I could make these a day ahead. First I peeled the potatoes (10 of them),then I put them through the food processor and sliced them into 1/8 inch thick slices. Then I sautéed them in butter (ended up using 3 pans so as not to overcrowd the potatoes each pan had a quarter cup of butter) and I sprinkled them with a little kosher salt. Sauteed them for about 10 minutes until just tender,then I drained the butter out of each pan into a large bowl. To this I added the cream of chicken and the sour cream. Then I folded in 1 bunch of sliced chives and 2 cups shredded cheddar and 1 cup shredded emmenthaler. Then I layered three layers of potatoes,starting with the sauce on the bottom and ending with the sauce on top. I stuck it in the fridge till the next day. Next day melted the 1/4 cup butter and put 3 cups corn flakes in a gallon ziplock bag and crushed them with a marble rolling pin. Poured the melted butter in the bag once the butter cooled a little and mixed it up in the bag. Poured the mixture onto the potatoes. Baked at 350 for 45 min. Half of the time it was covered in foil and the other half of the time it was uncovered. I wish I had put some white pepper in this but I forgot. This was super good but should have cooked even longer since a few of the potatoes were a little underdone. It made a lot of dirty dishes for one side dish but it was very decadent and special and it helped to make it a day ahead.
These are delicious!! I cut my potatoes about 1/4" & then cut them in half, like a half moon shape. Skipped the cornflake topping, as a personal pref. LOVE them!! Thanks, Kitchen Witch!!
This was amazing! I had only 1 can of cr. chicken and added 1 can of cr. mushroom. Before the cornflake layer I added a thin layer of shredded cheese. Everyone loved it especially the teenagers!
Fabulous! I thin sliced the potatoes first then parboiled or around 10 minutes until the potatoes were beginning to soften but could still be handled for layering. Use green chili dip instead of sour cream! Takes about an hour to cook. YUMMM!!!
