+		TARGET=_blank>UCSC Genome Browser: Custom Tracks and Table Browser</A>
+		</UL>
+		<P>The OpenHelix website also provides UCSC tutorials on the 
+		Gene Sorter and VisiGene 
+		(<A HREF="http://www.openhelix.com/cgi/tutorialInfo.cgi?id=76"
+		TARGET=_blank>UCSC Genome Browser: The Additional Tools</A>),

+		TARGET=_blank>UCSC Archaeal Genome Browser</A>. 
+		<P>
+		Each suite contains an online, narrated tutorial that highlights
+		and explains the features and functionality needed to use the 
+		UCSC tools effectively, and a collection of training materials 
+		that includes the PowerPoint slides used as a basis for the 
+		tutorial, a suggested script for the slides, slide handouts, and
+		exercises. These materials, all of which are free, can be used 
+		as a reference for users or as a ready-made presentation for 
+		training others on the use of the Genome Browser.
+		<P>

+		for GRCh38 Human Reference Assembly: </B></FONT>
 		The <A HREF="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/projects/genome/assembly/grc/"
 		TARGET=_blank>Genome Reference Consortium</A> (GRC) plans to
 		update the human reference assembly to GRCh38 in the summer of 
-		2013. This revision is aimed at addressing issues found with the
-		current model for representing genome assemblies, which uses a 
-		single, preferred tiling path to produce a single consensus 
-		representation of the genome. Subsequent analysis has
-		shown that for most mammalian genomes a single tiling path is
-		insufficient to represent a genome in regions with complex 
-		allelic diversity. The GRC is working to create assemblies that 
-		better represent this diversity and provide more robust 
-		substrates for genome analysis.
