*WHEN YOU WHERE THERE**
Episode 9
.... I often regard my self as the tithe of the family,

Am solely concentrated to God,

So I almost don't contact my biological parents when bad things happen because my spiritual parents often show up on time.
Felix said,

Besides, they stay abroad, apart from my younger brother who just rounded up his studies.
Felix added.

OK, but that's not actually where I was going to,
Mona confessed.

OK??
Felix said, paying rapt attention.

You woke up singing,
Mona started with.

I did?
Felix asked.

Yes!
And you where singing beautifully,
But that's still not the point,
Mona said, looking straight at Felix who has sat down.

You have devoted your life serving God,
I see you and your wife burning for God,
You even said, you regard yourself a tithe to Him,
Mona pointed and Felix kept nodding.

Now,
This same God you are sold out to, enjoys watching bad things happening to you,
Mona queried.

You had a very fatal accident that almost claimed your life,
You even lost your newly wedded wife with your unborn baby,
Mona paused and continued almost immediately as Felix sat, just watching her.

Now, in one word,
Tell me about God.
Mona stopped,
Feeling she had made a great point.

God!
Felix replied.

God??
Mona asked looking irritated and confused.

Yes, God!
In one word you said,
And God is the word,
Felix insisted.

He is God,
And no man can question Him,
Felix said.

And Mona interrupted with furious,

Anyone can question Him,
He just don't respond to our questions,
Mona said in anger.

Felix just sat watching her.

And my anger is;
You woke up singing;
I sing because am happy,......
His eyes are on the sparrows., and you know He watches you?
Mona said and laughed hysterical.

You know the song?
Felix cuts in.

Yes!
And like you, I have sang it until it no longer makes any sense to me.
Mona said, looking arrogant.

Hmmm.... Tell me about it,
Felix said, looking straight at her.

Tell you about what?
Mona asked, looking confused.

Tell me about what turned you into this lady that you are now,
You are very bitter my dear,
Very bitter.
Felix noted.

OK, now you wanna judge me??
Mona flared up in anger as Felix just sat watching with smiles on his face.

What's it you wanna tell me about God that I don't know already??
Mona asked.
But not expecting an answer, but Felix replied.

He feels your pain,
Felix said,

We don't have an high priest who is not touched by our infirmity,
Felix added.

   Really?
Mona replied sarcastically,

  Then the part of His nervous system that responds to pain must have gone numb when I felt all I felt,

   Mona said, smiling from one side of her chick as she walked out of the ward.

   Felix was silent.

   This lady must have been through a lot, he thought within himself.
.....To be continued.

De-starching the Leaves of a Plant

De-starching the Leaves of a Plant 'De-starch (or Destarch) the leaves of a potted plant' is one of the preliminary steps in a  photosynthesis experiment . Biology students often ask the following questions about de-starching. What is  the definition of de-starching? Why it is necessary to de-starch the leaves of a plant before conducting photosynthesis experiments? What happens to the starch stores when the potted plant is deprived of light or carbon dioxide? How to de-starch the leaves of a plant? What is the definition of de-starching? De-starching is the process by which the starch reserves in a plant are depleted by depriving the plant of either light or carbon dioxide.  Why is it necessary to de-starch the leaves of a plant before conducting photosynthesis experiments? We test for the presence  of starch  in leaves in order to determine that photosynthesis has occurred. Glucose -  the product of photosynthe

Ethanol Emulsion Test for Fats and Oils

Ethanol Emulsion Test for Fats and Oils The  Ethanol Emulsion Test  is a  food test  which determines the presence of a broad group of naturally occurring compounds known as  lipids . Lipids consist of  fats  and  oils . Other lipid tests include the  Grease Spot Test  and the  Sudan Stain Test . The Grease spot test is performed on fats - lipids which are solid at room temperature. Sudan stain colours lipids red, but is a less common bench reagent than ethanol. The Ethanol Emulsion Test is the most common test amongst the three. Procedure Solid sample  Crush  the food sample and place in a dry test tube. Add ethanol  to about 2 cm3 above the level of the sample and shake thoroughly. Allow the solid to  settle  (about 3 min) to allow the lipid to be extracted. Decant  the ethanol into another test tube. Add 2 cm3 of  deionized water  to the second test tube Make observations. Liquid sample Add a  few drops  of the liquid food sample to a dry te
