	Week Ten- August 4-10 Continued Acetylene Reduction Assay for all strains and controls. Ran light induction experiment and troubleshoot data based on results. Started design of a new positive control to more accurately find out what is wrong with our system. Had our final Worldly Wednesday at Blueberry Hill before people started leaving campus before school starts. Jeffrey left the team for the summer to go abroad.
	Week Eleven- August 11-17 Presented our preliminary results to Pakrasi Group and all of the advisors. Ben started and tested new positive control and found that it did not fluoresce as expected and suspect a faulty RBS. Started design of primers to modify the RBS of the system.
