Presentations and Media Coverage, May 22nd 2009
Today we had our team presentation. Each sub-team of our iGEM Calgary team, had to present what they had so far accomplished. I also got an e-mail form Global TV that they would be happy to do a story on our research project somewhere in September.

Collision with Objects and Scripting the PCR Machine
Today, I was able to:
- Make something that will selectively glow when it hits an object. The object must have a certain name or id. The object can be attached to an avatar, but only to the owner of the object so the only way avatars other than mine can wear it are taking it into their inventory so that they are the owner of it
- I began the PCR machine script today (Another group member will make the primitive representation of the machine). I believe it would be useful to see everything in the objects inventory, including the script
- For now, if you make a list of things you want you can look for them within inventory by identifying the type of the name in the inventory and if it is returned INVENTORY_NONE it is not in the object’s inventory
Tomorrow I would like to continue with the general version of PCR.

Preparing for Dragon's Den
We watched the Dragon's Den TV shows to get an idea of how to present, what to do, what not to do and what we should expect from the Dragons.
We discussed the presentation with Thane and Sonja and they asked us potential questions that we may be asked in Edmonton. I was prepared to talk about the sponsorship package, our plans, successes, goals and budget.
I followed up with a few companies via email and sent out more sponsorship packages.

Continued scripting and experimenting
This week we were at a place on an island called King's Bishop where we could freely build things since we don't have our island. Started just building and experimenting with interactions between objects. I got a whole bunch of freebies by hunting around on other islands and also explored Genome Island. Met some new friends and scientists, most importantly people from Sigma Life.
