The IUSB Code Ninjas - Chris Beelby, Tim Kaiser, Ben Lechlitner - finished the 49th out of 133 teams and the IUSB Code Monkeys - Jason DeBoni, Russell Mehler, Geoff Warner - finished the 84th.

I've added a page of random pics to my photo section, as well as a link to my sister's wedding pics.

Jason DeBoni has done a poster presentation of our paper Consistent Weighted Graph Layouts at the Graph Theory 2004 conference, Paris, sometime in July. Our paper Consistent Graph Layout for Weighted Graphs has been accepted for the 3rd ACS/IEEE International Conference on Computer Systems and Applications.

I have presented the paper Multi-Agent Autonomous Pilot for Motorcycles co-authored with Russel Mehler to the IEEE Region 4 Electro/Information Technology Conference (EIT2004).

I submitted the paper Gender Separation and Mating Constraints to the Evolutionary Computation journal. Good luck to me with that (I'm gonna need a lot of it, it's a tough cookie).

The ISL has been featured on the 5-7 news show on WNDU Channel 16. Clips.

I have presented a couple more papers in Austria in February and at Roosevelt University, IL, the past week. See my publications.

Beside that I'm pretty certain by now that I have survived the semester.
