Great vacation
The entire staff treats you very well and always go out of their way to make sure your stay is as best as possible...the rooms are nice and the food is great. Nightly shows are always entertaining... Great hotel for couples and families.
A few extra dollars can go a long way. Always buy any outside attractions from a good rep in the hotel lobby. Someone will always try to give you a cheaper price..but the service and experience may not be as good. Ask the front desk clerk who are the best reps to go with.
Great Hotel
It was an amazing trip and the workers their treated you like royalty. Food was good. The resort was super nice. Definitely going back again.
Make Reservations in Morning
Stress Free Vacation!
We had an amazing time! Our trip was 5 days/4nights. We arrived on Wed. and left on a Sun. From start to finish, we were treated wonderfully! Candidly, I was hesitant to book after reading the mixed reviews; however, I am so glad we did. We truly
did not experience what some other travelers noted. I am sure each experience is different. During our experience, not ONE person hovered or made comments as a way of hinting at a tip. We did tip some of the resort staff because they had gone above and beyond – but other than that there was never an awkward moment regarding tips. It was the opposite! However, I would like to gently remind folks that the DR is a third world country that is full of people with financial stress. I realize the resort experience isn't cheap but I encourage some understanding as to why some of the staff might do things in hopes of tips. As to the buffet comments – not every dish is delicious so when you first go you may just want to start by taking small portions to taste. Some of the most basic things are not good at all but some dishes were really good. I would say it just requires a little bit of patience and some willingness to take risk. On the other hand, the specialty restaurants were FABULOUS!!! As soon as you can, make your reservation. Definitely worth it! Also, take advantage of the special events. We are not ones to enjoy that kind of thing but one of our favorite moments was during one of the events! They set up a dance area on the beach while a chef cooked/served Paella and Sangria! It was truly a movie moment. We were in heaven. The staff is so respectful and aware of your needs that we were left alone to enjoy the moment with each other rather than being pulled on the dance floor. They quickly realized our vibe so we were able to eat, drink and dance on our terms. Pure greatness!
We highly recommend this resort to anyone traveling to Punta Cana. The beach was gorgeous, the staff was friendly/funny/ kind and the amenities allowed a for a stress free vacation. I hope this helps!
RIU Palace Bavaro - A Must Go!
We enjoyed our time at the RIU Palace Bavaro: great place, excelent food variaties, superb service and professional staff.
Room comfort could have been better, was not good having two twin beds 'together' to make it a king size bed.
This RIU
hotel did not have drinks service at the beach like the RIU in Cancun. Not certain what is RIU standard on this.
Will have been great enrolling the RIU Class program BEFORE going into any of the RIU hotels.
Evening etertainment for the kids were good despite of being repetitive.
IF you are travelling with kids, please ensure you bring everything you need (diapers, ibuprofen, wipes, etc..) it cost 2x purchasing any of these in the hotel or local stores being Punta Cana a tourist area.
Everything was great. Clean sheets. Entertainment was exceptional. Service was well mannered and professional. Would definitely recommend and return.
5 star
This resort truly defines 5 stars. From the staff to the hotel itself, I would definitely return.
Fantastic get away
This vacation was great we really enjoyed it and the staff was fabulous !!
Best vacation
We opted for the room with a jacuzzi on the balcony. I highly recommend it as this was the most enjoyable vacation
super vacation
it was our first time in RIU. it is super. food is very good and a big variety.
a lot of tropical fruits.
the only weak point was our transportation from resort to the airport. VIP transportation was an 1 hour late and we almost miss our flight home.
Happy new year! welcome 2015
This was my 2nd stay at this hotel. I love RIU hotels, but this time it was awesome. Being able to experiebce the New Year´s eve buffet was an experience out of this world. Belkin, a waitress at the main restarurant is a 5 star employee. The same
goes for Junior, a waiter at the same restaurant and Anthony the VIP pool guy. A family vacation i won´t forget.

Beautiful location to work out, can't go wrong with the view. Great job with student and teacher diversity. Class sizes not too large, making the teaching process more effective.
Unfortunately with regards to some of the colleges there, the students are not being given the best education opportunities possible for the money they (their parents) pay. Material and teaching methodologies must be updates with the changes in technologies and trends. The schools of Communications and Film are the worst offenders at this. Makes the job of a teacher that much harder.

As of Sunday, July 21, 2013
© Copyright 2015 Albany Herald
ALBANY, Ga. -- Help is just around the corner for those adventurous individuals seeking to open a business. At a town hall meeting at the Albany Law Enforcement Center Saturday, some 15 business hopefuls got pointers on where to go.
Tracy Hester, manager of Albany-Dougherty County Planning and Development Service, spoke on the Business First program, an initiative of Albany and Dougherty County. According to Hester, the program was established five or six years ago with the intention of helping business-minded newbies with a no-cost guide to the challenges and opportunities available.
"This is basically an on-call program," Hester said. "If we have an applicant with a request for a meeting we call the group together and meet at our office at 240 Pine Ave., on the 3rd floor of the planning office."
Hester said the interested future business owners would be meeting with a large group of city, county and Water Gas and Light employees who are involved with the process day to day. According to material provided Saturday, the Business First team consists of the Albany Area Chamber of Commerce, the Economic Development Commission, the Albany Fire Department, the City and Downtown managers, Water Gas and Light, the University of Georgia Small Business Development Center and several other entities.
"It's actually very relaxed," Hester said. "It might seem intimidating at first because we sit around a conference table with you at the head. It's just general discussion with you and about 15-20 other people there to answer your questions."
According to Hester, a huge part of the recommendation for anyone considering a new business is the creation of a business plan.
"You can't go anywhere without a business plan," Hester said. "The University of Georgia and Georgia Tech programs focus on that. They don't do them for you but they'll provide you with every tool and piece of information available to help you build your plan. If you show up at a financial institution without one, they'll smile and offer you a donut as they're walking you out the door. Without a business plan they're not going to talk to you."
For information about the Business First program call Tammy McCalla, project manager, at (229) 438-3903.

Metadata[+] Show full item record
The large round bale, as used in forage production, is a highly mechanized, labor-efficient system for harvesting and handling your forage. The large round bale system is basically a one-man operation. Large round bales will weigh 500 to 3,000 pounds with dimensions varying with the baler manufacturer and model. Usually the bales are 5 to 7 feet long and 5 to 7 feet in diameter. Bale weight depends not only on dimensions but also on the type and quality of hay baled.

1- what happened to nickelus f? he was 100 times better when he just came out with drake, and drake was ass.. 2- why does nickelus f sound like he's in a basement closet..while drake is in a large studio? 3- the song is trash after the drake verse
Drake actually doesn't have a ghost writer. One of his biggest assets is writing. Believe it or not he ghosts writes for a lot of big artists, alicia keys, jamie foxx, rihanna, etc. He writes everything and occasional 40 will give him input. Drake and wayne ssometimes will take each others lines, but no harm in that, just part of the writing process. Bouncing ideas off of one another, and being like "I like that" ddo u mind if I use it. Great writer, not the best freestyler, but all in al an extremley talented artist, love him or hate him....
I was wondering what happened to Nickelus F. Him and Drake made nice songs together years ago. Glad to see them link back up...Nick need to get his voice back right though. Link to some real music... http://www.datpiff.com/B-EZ-Beautiful-Situation-mixtape.375070.html
Dude sounds just like 2 Chainz Flow but voice is just different.... He is def dick ridin 2 Chainz Flow and Delivery but sick bars but get your on flow
Your an idiot ..No really your an idiot!
See this is y u dont get drake on ur shit I could never listen to this for nickelus lmao
OMFG cummin in my pants right now, THIS IS MEGA HOTT!!! B====D~~
Drake should've just done this song by himself Nickelus F doesn't deserve to even spit on this
Who produced this? Im digging it and someone give this Nickelus nigga a cough drop
jake one produced
most likely nickelus f produced it. he produced a lot of these tracks on this tape.
Just give me drakes verse. The other dude went in but his voice is fucked up.
Its settled. Drake is the current Hov. K. Dot is nasty Nas and Pac rolled in one. Ya'll pussy ass niggas might as well kick back for the next 10 years and enjoy the show!
U maaaaaaad!!! *cam voice*
Its sad to see you dick eat on another man like that smh.....Are you his spokesperson?
Just saying after Drakes verse you can hear him say, "Yeah, thats good." I dont think that was supposed to be there...
this track is fire
Is this Jake-One on the beat? Either way diggin this for sure
the shit
dirzzy spazzed out on you mudaafuckers living legend
shittyyYyyYyymcb wack
really good
Thatz some kul shit mehn
drizzy drake FIRE !!!!!!!!
I think Drake has a ghost writer, because ain't no way the young boy got that many diverse verses.
That is one of his flows from Comeback Season, his second mixtape. If he has a ghostwriter, it definitely isn't for that flow, since he had it before he popped. And I still don't believe he does, just for the simple fact his musical knowledge is quite extensive and he thinks about music outside the 16's.
Nicks delivery reminds me of cyhi da prince.
I was thinking the same thing. Its that raspy throat voice.
Not bad at all. Nice track
This tape was pretty dope. I recommend it.
Drake be killing shit.
drizzy has done it again
I'm diggin' it. Smooth track
I like it.. "Im in it for the ho's and the checks, could care less for respect from nig*%$ I never met"!!
features like this make me think the next drake album is gonna have waaaay more rapping than Thank Me Later and Take Care cus ever since Take Care dropped other than diced pineapples, he hasnt sang on a single track hes been featured on
The joke here is people are seriously debating about a hip hop song called Diced Pineapples.
where were you is an old song. It came out like 3years ago. And good kush and alcohol he wasnt tryin to hit those high notes like on diced pineapples
good kush and alcohol
hesang on right here, he sang on where were you.....
This has Got that vibe going on
No, that's definitely a tampon.
Why's he got a tampon in his nose?
it's not tampon, it's cocaine

Oryza sativa rice plants contain molecules that activate different quorum-sensing N-acyl homoserine lactone biosensors and are sensitive to the specific AiiA lactonase
Gram-negative bacteria most often use N-acyl homoserine lactones (AHLs) as intercellular quorum-sensing signal molecules. In this study, it was demonstrated that rice plants contain AHL mimic molecules that are very sensitive to the highly specific AiiA lactonase enzyme and can activate three different AHL bacterial biosensors, indicating that the compounds have a homoserine lactone structure and could be AHLs. The possible source and biological significance of this finding are discussed.
- quorum sensing
- N-acyl homoserine lactones
- plants
- AiiA lactonase
- rice
Bacteria use small signal molecules as intercellular communicators to coordinate gene expression within a population in a process called quorum sensing (QS) (Fuqua et al., 1994; Waters & Bassler, 2005). The concentration of the signal molecules increases alongside the bacterial population density and, when it reaches a critical level, bacteria respond and modulate target gene expression. In natural ecosystems, bacteria are aiming at establishing communities as QS provides significant advantages such as improving access to environmental niches, enhancing defense capabilities against other microorganisms or eukaryotic host-defense mechanisms and facilitating the adaptation to changing environmental conditions. A typical QS system in gram-negative bacteria involves the production and response to an acylated homoserine lactone (N-acyl homoserine lactones; AHL) signal molecule. An AHL-QS system is usually mediated by two proteins belonging to the LuxI–LuxR protein families; LuxI-type proteins are responsible for synthesizing AHLs, which then interact directly at quorum concentration with the cognate LuxR-type protein, and this protein–AHL complex can then bind to target promoters affecting expression of QS target genes. Many plant associated bacteria, including Agrobacterium tumefaciens, Erwinia carotovora, Pseudomonas syringae and Pseudomonas putida, use AHL QS to regulate important traits such as Ti plasmid transfer, biofilm formation, production of hydrolytic degradative enzymes and epiphytic fitness (Loh et al., 2002; Von Bodman et al., 2003).
Several recent studies have demonstrated that eukaryotes interfere and respond to bacteria AHL QS signals, indicating interkingdom communication via AHLs (Bauer & Mathesius, 2004; Shiner et al., 2005). AHLs modulate gene expression in animal and plant cells as for example observed with one of the AHLs (3-oxo-C12-AHL) produced by Pseudomonas aeruginosa, which modulates the expression of certain genes in human lung fibroblasts and leukocytes (Telford et al., 1998; Smith et al., 2002; Shiner et al., 2005). Similarly, in plant cells, a proteomic study in the model legume Medicago truncatula resulted in the alteration of abundance of 150 proteins after root exposure to AHLs (Mathesius et al., 2003; Shiner et al., 2005); a similar experiment with Arabidopsis thaliana involving microarray analysis, however, resulted in AHLs not affecting endogenous gene expression (You et al., 2006). In addition, AHLs produced by biocontrol rhizosphere bacteria have been recently reported to induce systemic resistance to fungal pathogens in tomato plants (Schuhegger et al., 2006). Alongside these responses, eukaryotes appear to produce chemical compounds that act as agonists or antagonists to bacterial AHL QS systems and are often called AHL mimics (Bauer & Mathesius, 2004). The first AHL mimics identified and best characterized are the furanones from the red alga Delisea pulchra (Givskov et al., 1996; Gram et al., 1996; Hentzer et al., 2003), which inhibit the AHL QS response by interfering with AHL–LuxR interactions (Manefield et al., 2002). Several other plant species secrete AHL mimics that can either stimulate or inhibit bacterial AHL QS systems (Teplitski et al., 2000; Gao et al., 2003). The precise source, structure and biological significance of these AHL mimics from plants are currently unknown.
In this study evidence is provided that from the leaves and stem of rice plants (Oryza sativa) two different compounds could repeatedly be detected, which activate three different AHL biosensors, both of which were sensitive to the specific AiiA lactonase. In these experiments, no other compound that could mimic AHLs was observed. It is significant that these compounds are found in healthy rice plants grown in a greenhouse under sterile conditions, implying that bacteria infecting rice in the wild will most probably encounter these molecules.
Materials and methods
Bacterial strains, culture conditions and recombinant DNA techniques
Bacterial strains used were grown in either M9 medium with the possible addition of 0.2% w/v casamino acids and glucose or in Luria–Bertani (LB) medium (Sambrook et al., 1989). Escherichia coli JM109 (pSB401; Winson et al., 1998) was grown in LB medium plus tetracycline 10 µg mL−1 at 37°C. Plasmid pSB401 contains the following genetic arrangement: luxR gene, the promoter of luxI fused to a promoterless luxCDABE. Providing exogenous AHL inducer molecules to E. coli (pSB401) results in the induction of bioluminescence. The biosensor strain E. coli pSB536 (an AhyR-based sensor with luxCDABE as a reporter system) was grown in LB medium plus ampicillin 100 µg mL−1 at 37°C (Swift et al., 1997). Escherichia coli DH5α (pSCR1) was grown in LB medium plus ampicillin 100 µg mL−1 at 37°C. Plasmid pSCR1 contains the following genetic arrangement: the Burkholderia cepacia cepR gene, the promoter of cepI fused to a promoterless lacZ (Aguilar et al., 2003). Providing exogenous AHL inducer molecules to E. coli (pSCR1) results in the induction of β-galactosidase production. Chromobacterium violaceum CV026 was grown in LB medium at 30°C and is a double mini-Tn5 mutant derived from ATCC 31 532; this mutant is nonpigmented and production of the purple pigment can be induced by providing exogenous AHL inducer molecules (McClean et al., 1997). Pseudomonas putida F117 (pAS-C8) was grown in LB medium plus 25 µg mL−1 gentamycine at 30°C and is an AHL biosensor based on components of the Burkholderia cenocepacia CepI/R system, and the plasmid contains the cepI promoter translationally fused to the gfp reporter gene together with, the cepR gene placed under control of Plac in opposite direction (Riedel et al., 2001).
Digestion with restriction enzymes, agarose gel electrophoresis, purification of DNA fragments, ligation with T4 DNA ligase, transformation of E. coli and sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) were performed as described (Sambrook et al., 1989). Analytical amounts of plasmids were isolated as described (Birnboim, 1983), whereas preparative amounts were purified with Qiagen columns. β-Galactosidase activity was determined as previously described (Miller, 1972).
Purification and characterization of AHL-like molecules from rice
Seeds of rice cv. IR24 (obtained from PhilRice, Science City of Muñoz, the Philippines) or Italian variety cv. Selenio (obtained from the Italian Rice Research Institute, Pavia, Italy) were sterilized in a 5% active chlorine hypochlorite solution for 1 h, and repeatedly washed with sterile water. Rice plants were grown in a sterilized peat substrate (Klassmann substrate 4, Geeste, D) under full-containment greenhouse conditions (28±2°C, 70% humidity) under a 14 : 10 light–dark photoperiod. Rice plants were taken for extraction after 1.5 (vegetative phase) and 3 months (reproductive phase), the roots were then disposed and the aerial parts of the plants were repeatedly washed with sterile water. Twenty-five grams of fresh plant material were then frozen with liquid nitrogen and ground by a pestle and mortar, reduced into a fine powder, suspended into warm water at 50°C and mixed for 1 h. The water solution was centrifuged to remove the plant residues, and the supernatant was extracted with the same volume of ethyl acetate after acidification with 0.1% acetic acid. The extract was dried at room temperature and resuspended in 1 mL methanol/water (50 : 50 vol/vol). This extract was fractionated by HPLC with a semi-preparative C18 reverse-phase column (1 × 25 cm), using a methanol:water gradient 20 : 80–80 : 20 eluent composition for 35 min at a flow rate of 2.5 mL min−1. Fractions of 5 mL each were collected and dried and were analyzed by (1) C18-reverse-phase thin layer chromatography (TLC) plates as described previously (Shaw et al., 1997) and finally overlaid with AHL biosensors E. coli (pSB401), E. coli (pSB536) or C. violaceum CV026 and (2) determining β-galactosidase activities when exposed to E. coli (pSCR1).
Purification and use of the AiiA lactonase enzyme
The aiiA gene was amplified from pME6860 (Reimmann et al., 2002) using primers 5′-cgggatccacagtaaagaagct-3′ and 5′-aactgcagctatatatattcaggga-3′ and cloned as a 765 bp BamHI–PstI fragment in the corresponding sites in pQE30 (Qiagen, Hilden, D) yielding pQAIIA. Expression and purification of His6-tagged AiiA were carried out in E. coli M15 (pREP-4) according to the instructions of the supplier (Qiagen, Hilden, D). Enzyme reactions were performed in 0.1 M phosphate buffer (pH 7.4) with 0.5 µg of purified AiiA enzyme incubated at 30°C for 4 h and then used for AHL detection.
Isolation of endophytic bacteria
Endophytic bacteria were isolated from rice cv. IR24 grown as described above following the method reported previously (Stoltzfus et al., 1997). All plant tissues were surface sterilized as follows: 10 g of tissue was shaken for 30 min in 500 mL Erlenmeyer flasks containing 250 mL sterile deionized water and 25 g of glass beads. The tissue was transferred aseptically to a sterile beaker, washed two times with sterile distilled water, and sterilized for 1 min using 0.2% HgCl2. The tissue was then washed six times with sterile distilled water cut into small pieces and homogenized in a Warring blender containing 90 mL sterile distilled water. Serial dilutions were prepared and spread on plates containing bacterial growth media.
Detection of AHL-like QS signals from rice extracts
In order to determine whether rice contained AHLs and/or AHL mimics, ethyl acetate extracts of rice leaves and stems were prepared as described in 'Materials and methods' and tested for activity towards two AHL bacterial biosensors. As depicted in Fig. 1 (a) and (c), AHL purification from vegetative phase grown rice stimulated two AHL biosensors, resulting in two spots of bioluminescence in the TLC plate overlaid with E. coli pSB401 and in β-galactosidase activity in the corresponding HPLC fractions (HPLC fractions 5–7) when these were exposed to E. coli (pSCR1). Similarly, AHL purification from reproductive phase rice (Fig. 1 sections b and d), resulted in the stimulation of both biosensors, however, from different HPLC fractions and migrating differently on TLC; interestingly, rice in the vegetative phase showed two spots when analyzed with E. coli pSB401, and the upper one also seems to be present in the reproductive phase, although at a lower concentration. These results provide clear indications that in healthy rice there are compounds that respond to AHL biosensors; the two biosensors used respond to a wide range of AHLs. Escherichia coli pSB401 based on LuxR displays a dynamic range of AHL response, whereas the CepR-based pSCR1 best responds to C8-AHLs, C10-AHLs and C12-AHLs. C8-AHL was used as control for both the reporters at concentrations ranging from 0.1 to 0.5 µM, respectively. This experiment was repeated threefold and provided consistent reproducible results. In addition, the AHL biosensor strain C. violaceum CV026 (McClean et al., 1997) positively responded only to HPLC fraction 16 of reproductive phase rice when the same amount of rice sample was analyzed via TLC (data not shown). The biosensor strain E. coli pSB536, which is sensitive to short-chain AHLs, on the other hand, was not sensitive to any of the extracts from the same amount of rice of either growth phases (data not shown).
The compounds detected in rice are sensitive to the AiiA lactonase enzyme
In order to gain an insight into the type of molecules that activate the AHL biosensors, it was decided to test whether these compounds were substrates for the AiiA AHL-lactonase, a quorum quenching enzyme from Bacillus sp. that inactivates AHLs (Dong et al., 2001; Wang et al., 2004). This enzyme has remarkable substrate specificity and is very potent towards different AHLs regardless of length and substitution of the acyl chain and showed very residual activity against nonacyl homoserine lactones (Wang et al., 2004). In order to test the rice AHL mimic compounds for AiiA susceptibility and thus indicate whether or not they are AHL-related, we purified the AiiA enzyme was purified and then it was tested whether these compounds retained their ability to activate AHL biosensors once exposed to AiiA. The Bacillus aiiA gene encoding the AiiA protein was cloned, expressed and purified to homogeneity as a His6-tagged protein. The purity of the AiiA protein was analyzed and confirmed by 12% SDS-PAGE (data not shown).
Twenty-five grams of fresh rice plant material of 1.5 (vegetative phase) and 3 months (reproductive phase) were grown and used for AHL extraction as in 'Materials and methods'. The final HPLC fractions were then divided into two: (1) one half was resuspended in 40 µL of 0.1 M phosphate buffer (pH 7.4) and used directly for AHL detection in TLC overlaid with E. coli pSB401 or for AHL detection using E. coli (pSCR1) and (2) the other half resuspended in 40 µL of 0.1 M phosphate buffer (pH 7.4) with the addition of 10 µL containing 0.5 µg of purified AiiA enzyme incubated at 30°C for 4 h and then used for AHL detection (Fig. 2). As can be seen from Fig. 2, the TLC spot observed in the vegetative phase-grown rice as well as the β-galactosidase peak of activities in HPLC fractions from reproductive phase rice clearly disappeared when AiiA lactonase was incubated with these compounds (Fig. 3). Figure 2a is slightly different from Fig. 1a, with one spot only instead of two, probably due to minor differences in batches of rice extract and quantities used. From this figure, it is also evident that the AHL-like molecule is not C8-AHL-like. In Fig. 3, fractions 16 and 17 after the treatment with the AiiA enzyme are lower than the other fractions, probably due to a minimal background to which the reporter is slightly sensitive. It is also believed that the residual activity of the lactonase-treated C8-AHL is due to high sensitivity of the reporter to residual C8-AHL. This experiment provides a significant indication that the compounds detected in rice could be AHLs and have a lactone structure thus are not compounds of a distant chemical structure that interact with and activate the LuxR family proteins. As a positive control, C8-AHL incubated with AiiA lactonase clearly inactivated the AHL response by E. coli (pSB401) and E. coli (pSCR1) (Fig. 3). As all experiments thus far were performed using rice of an indica variety cv. IR24 obtained from The Philippines, AHLs were also extracted as described above from 25 g of leaves and stems of rice of Italian variety cv. Selenio. The extract obtained was fractionated by HPLC, fractions were dried, resuspended in ethyl acetate and pooled. Precipitated material was eliminated by centrifugation, and the supernatant was dried and resuspended again in ethyl acetate. Half of the material was then loaded directly in the TLC plate and the other half was first treated with the AiiA-purified lactonase enzyme. The TLC was then overlaid with AHL biosensor C. violaceum CV026 and as can be seen in Fig. 4, compounds mimicking AHLs with Rf higher than C8-AHL were clearly detected, which completely disappeared when the extract was treated with AiiA-lactonase. This result cannot be directly compared with the above-reported results as the rice variety and the procedure used are different. However, it further demonstrates that healthy rice of European origin also contains AHL-like or closely related compounds.
Rice endophytic bacteria
In order to evaluate the role of rice-associated bacteria in determining the presence of AHL-like molecules in rice extracts, endophytes were isolated from the IR24 rice variety. Epiphytic bacteria were not considered because the rice used for extraction of AHL-like molecules was extensively washed with sterile water in order to eliminate epiphytic AHL contaminants. The maximum number of culturable bacteria obtained was 4.5 × 103 CFU in 10 g of rice plant (stems and leaves only). All colonies isolated from 200 µL of rice suspension were tested on petridishes (as a 'T'-streak) for the ability to induce a response to several AHL-reporter strains covering most of the common AHL structural molecules. None of the tested colonies was able to induce the reporter strains.
Do the AHL-like compounds present in rice activate AHL biosensors in vivo?
In order to test whether in rice the presence of AHL-like compounds could activate AHL biosensors in vivo, the CepR-green fluorescent protein (GFP)-based AHL sensor P. putida F117 (pAS-C8) (this sensor is similar to pSCR1, a CepR-lacZ AHL sensor, which was used in the detection of AHLs in rice, see above) was introduced into rice leaves (Riedel et al., 2001). The bacterial suspension [P. putida F117 (pAS-C8)-108 CFU mL−1)] was injected with a needle-less syringe into the leaves; after 24 h, sections of leaves that included the inoculation site were placed in eppendorf tubes for 8 h in M9 minimal medium that either contained or did not contain added synthetic C8-AHL. Then, the sections were mounted on slides and observed under an inverted Zeiss LSM 510 Laser Scanning Microscope with a Plan–Neofluar × 40, N.A. 0.75 lens. GFP fluorescence was excited with a 488 nm Ar-laser, and confocal sections were collected using a BP 505–530 nm (GFP) and LP 585 (chlorophyll autofluorescence) filter emission settings. GFP was observed only in the samples that had been treated with C8-AHL, indicating that the bacteria were present in the leaf but the natural/biological concentration of AHL-like compounds inside the leaves was not sufficient to induce the GFP expression of the plasmid sensor pAS-C8 (data not shown).
The understanding of how plants interfere and/or respond to bacterial AHL QS signals is at a very early stage and this will be an important research topic to address in the future. Several plant pathogens use AHL QS to regulate expression of virulence–associated factors and beneficial bacteria to modulate plant–bacteria interactions (Loh et al., 2002; Von Bodman et al., 2003; Schuhegger et al., 2006). Hence, plants could have evolved strategies to interfere with this signaling system, which may include production of signal-degrading enzymes, signal blockers or signal mimics. A few years ago, it has been reported that root exudates from several plant secrete compounds that mimic AHLs (Teplitski et al., 2000; Gao et al., 2003; Mathesius et al., 2003) as these can activate bacterial AHL biosensors; however, their chemical structure and precise biological source are currently unknown.
In this study, it was determined that stems and leaves of rice contained AHL mimic compounds that could activate several bacterial AHL biosensors. In addition through the use of the specific AHL AiiA-lactonase, it was observed that these compounds are very sensitive to the enzyme and therefore are most likely AHLs or have a very related lactone structure. The AiiA lactonase has only residual activity to nonacyl lactones and the differences in length and composition of the acyl chain do not affect enzyme activity (Wang et al., 2004). From these results, it cannot be stated that the compounds reported here are unequivocally AHLs but it can, however, be said that they are most likely AHLs or have a very closely related structure. In all the studies, no compound that was resistant to the AiiA lactonase and activated the bacterial AHL biosensors was purified from rice. This result raises two important questions: firstly, are the AHL-like compounds found in rice of bacterial and/or plant origin and, secondly, does bacteria infecting the rice plant encounter these compounds at a biologically significant concentration? With respect to the first question, it is unlikely that they are produced by epiphytic bacteria as the seeds were sterilized, plants were grown under sterile conditions in a full containment greenhouse and extensively washed with sterile water before AHL extraction was performed. It is also unlikely that they are due to rhizosphere bacteria for similar reasons and also because no root material was used for AHL extraction. It is possible, however, that the AHLs detected in rice are produced by endophytic bacteria. There is scarce information regarding bacterial endophytic colonization of rice as well as on the response of rice to these bacteria. Several gram-negative endophytic rice bacteria have been reported (Mukhopadhyay et al., 1996; Adhikari et al., 2001; Tan et al., 2001; Singh et al., 2006), many of which are regarded as beneficial bacteria and future study needs to establish whether the AHLs detected in this study originate from endophytic bacteria. It appears that densities of endophytic bacteria, if rice colonization-infection experiments are performed, are usually low, lower than 107 cells g−1 (James et al., 2002; You et al., 2005). Very low concentrations of natural endophytic bacteria have been detected here, all of which did not appear to produce AHLs under the conditions that were tested.
It is noteworthy to mention that two predominant AHL-like compounds were repeatedly detected from two different rice cultivars and thus it cannot be excluded that the plant could be synthesizing them as several different endophytic species could be present and at very low CFU per gram of plant material. Unfortunately, the amount of molecules obtained was too low to perform structural studies; however, their sensitivity to the very specific AiiA-lactonase and ability to activate three different AHL biosensors is important evidence that these molecules are most likely AHLs. The presence of these molecules in rice could have important biological significance as rice pathogens such as Burkholderia glumae and Burkholderia plantarii utilize AHL QS for expressing virulence-associated factors (Kim et al., 2004; Solis et al., 2006). At present, it is not known whether the compounds detected here are found in rice at a biologically relevant concentration (it was determined that an AHL biosensor based on a GFP reporter system could not be activated in vivo in rice leaves; this detection method, however, does not detect the possible presence of agonist molecules in vacuoles): in addition, the purification procedure used here does not guarantee that most AHL-like compounds present in the stem and roots of rice have been extracted.
In summary, this study has demonstrated the presence of AHL-like compounds inside the rice plant, thus extending the few previous studies of AHL mimic compounds present in root exudates. The important result from this study is that AHL-like molecules are present in rice and future study will be directed towards understanding their source and possible biological significance.

Yup! Plus you could almost do it as a study for your haunt, at a fraction of the expense due to the scale.
Dude, you got crazy skills, and you know it. Definitely an artist. I'm sure you could be a set designer if My wife has a friend who has been doing the "Haunted Dollhouse" thing on Facebook. I keep prodding her to join the forums because she's done an amazing job. I think that'd be another cool idea in regards to having a small project where you can still get creative. I'm almost wishing we'd done something like that because it's a little less restrictive than the village stuff.
Well I can certainly see how last year could have been overwhelming for you! Just went back and took another look at your photos and it definitely looks like a fulltime job for 8 or 10 set designers. You really outdid yourself! I have no idea where you'd even go from there.
Those villages can be deceptively time consuming. But nothing like a home haunt. And if you get in too deep it's a little easier to extricate yourself. Not quite as easy to just "stop" when you're vacuuforming walls.
Nothing really new here. I think my wife's brother and his family are coming out for a visit at Halloween so we should probably add something new to the yard. Haven't given it a ton of thought yet though.
Hey Bam! How you doing? Are you starting to gear up for Halloween already?
Congrats on being featured in Pumpkinrot's Blog!!!! Too cool!!!
Oh my gosh, that looks delicious! I love how your oranges came out - very fierce looking. Is the second picture - I can't tell for sure - cheeseburgers with the cheese on top? Or biscuits with cheese?
Can't go wrong with pretzels and chocolate, that's for sure.
Well thank you kind Sir. Ended up being rushed so not quite a tpost. We had heavy rain and some wind all morning till just about TOTing time. With a paper mache coffin, we ended up with a few problems.
Yeah, Beetlejuice is new this year. He was kinda the one thing I had in mind that would be new. But then my wife showed an interest in doing a coupe more tombstones so we focused on that. Wasn't sure that I'd get time to get to him, but he came together pretty quickly in the end. I busted the crank arm on the motor putting him away though, so I'll either have to change it out or do something different next yar.
Mummy has been around forever, but we change the lighting up on him periodically. The arch still needs better lighting. My goal eventually is to do those skeleton arm light sconces but I've just never gotten to it.
No plans to add Casper, but I've had a Slimer mask that I hoped to turn into a tombstone peeper or something. He may show up next year.
Thanks for the nice words Bam. You know I think you haunt is pretty much perfect, and getting better every year so it means a lot.
Thank you! Not sure which you are referring to..I think I have pics of 3 or 4 different ones on here. Super easy AND cheap to make-simply awesome lit up at night!!! Intellegirl made some really beautiful Victorian ones-check those out too.
Thank you for stopping by!! I work on setup all the month of September. I really enjoy that time of year and love puttering each day. I really do try to aim for the official 'light up' the first weekend of October. Yes. Storage has gotten insane. We have a 13 by 35 foot storage unit for all the Halloween. We live in a small country town, so we don't get tons of traffic, but it's a nice steady drive by of families in cars the whole month, and somewhere around 140 ToTs. I've never really been able to keep a real count. People do stop by and walk around in the evenings. It's such a nice experience for us.
Well, thanks again for checking us out. I'm honored.

Access Vanish Tonneau Cover on 2013 Ram Quad
So I was able to find a brand new Access Vanish tonneau on Ebay for $200 with free shipping, and couldn't pass it up. Just had it installed yesterday.
The price I paid was awesome, but still isn't outrageous if bought at normal price (about $360)
Super easy install. Takes maybe 20 minutes.
Good quality fabric
Super low profile. Barely above the bed at all.
Latches tight, with easy open and close
The rear edge of the tonneau, against the tailgate, isn't as nicely finished as the sides. Sticks up slightly. I see on higher end Access models they have a nicer edge at the rear. The Vanish is probably designed this way in order to entice buyers to upgrade to a higher end model.
Tie downs for when rolled up aren't very great quality
Edge fit isn't perfect. Near the cab, and at the corners it isn't perfect. I have never seen a soft tonneau that is though.
Overall I'm happy. Couldn't beat it for the price. It has a much lower porfile than any tonneau I've seen before. If your main priority is low profile, then THIS is definitely the best tonneau I've seen. If you want more security, or a super exact fit, you'd be better off with a hard cover.
My rating 8/10. Would recommend for sure.
(tried uploading pictures, says security certificate is missing(?), will try again later)
Still can't load any pictures, but I did upload a video of the tonneau to YouTube.
Thanks for the vote of confidence, it's nice to know the cover will withstand a few years of abuse at least.
cool tonneau cover on a beautiful truck. enjoy...........................:smileup:
You definitely can't beat the price. Looks good.

The smell is pretty medicinal, but that's what makes me think it's working. It also tingles when you leave it on as a mask - feels great. My skin feels fresh and tight (in a good way) after I rinse it off. It leaves my SO's skin a little irritated, but says it feels good later on. He has more sensitive skin than me.

I am so happy with this product! If I could give it 10 lippies I would. It's awesome for soothing breakouts, yet it never strips or overdries my skin. It lists glycerin as one of the first ingredients so I suppose that helps. I usually mix it with a few dissolved aspirin and this combo really banishes my bad skin. I'll definitely keep purchasing this.

I like this a lot. I alternate it with other cleansers, because it is a little bit drying. But it helps eliminate breakouts. I also like the smell of this, it's very pleasant.

I love this. I use it 2 times a week as a mask and its easy to rinse off because it foams a litte. I love the tingle and it never leaves my face dry.

Really drying, as both a cleanser and a mask. I have oily, acne-prone skin, but this stuff hurt, and I don't think it did much for my skin. Also, the smell is incredibly medicinal and unpleasant.

I like this product, I smear a thin layer on while I'm cleaning my teeth and then wash it off, it is quite drying though. I've also found that if I use it after a face scrub then my skin feels so clean and soft.

works miracles - love this product as both a cleanser and a mask. my skin is dry, so i sometimes switch with another cleanser if it's too drying in the winter. the mask is really good for getting rid of minor breakouts. highly recommended. i've tried other products and always come back to this for relatively quick results.

i like this product a lot. its a bit drying for a mask if used too often, but it helps my acne for a periodic use. but as a cleanser it works wonders for my skin. i find it really helps as a spot treatment over night as well. it significantly reduces the size of my blemishes overnight, this is a definitre repurchase for me.

Overall, I like this product. I was using it as a twice daily cleanser, but found that with this winter weather, it's a bit too drying. So, now I use it only once at night and use my Olay facial cloths for morning face washes. I like the fact that this leaves my skin clear and bright. I've been using it about a week and it hasn't caused any breakouts. The formula is thick, so a little goes a long way and it takes extra splashes to rinse it off your face. Hopefully, this will control any breakouts, but I'm going to try what some of the other girls recommend and use this as a spot treatment next time.

I'm pretty sure I've reviewed this before, but I've used it forever, and I'd still recommend it, as long as it's used correctly. I wouldn't use it around my eyes, for instance, and it can cause redness. It can also be drying for some skins in some climates. Now that the weather is warming up, I smooth this product on my skin once or twice a week, then rinse after 30 seconds or so. My skin looks clearer and finer, and it feels very refreshed. I'll continue buying the Clear Pore Cleanser mask because it's a unique, multi-purpose product that can be very effective if you find a use that suits you.
