A Note On Fast Epiphyllum Growth...

As mentioned in my Epiphyllum thread, a couple days ago I noticed some new growth on my Epi. "Climax." Well, it seems to be growing quickly. Very quickly.
It was about 4 mm yesterday. Today it measures in at a 9 mm, approaching 1 cm!
I haven't taken care of many plants in my past, so I don't know if that sort of speed is typical. In any case, it reminds me of why I love growing plants: I remain in awe of nature's power. The fact that a little seed can grow into a gargantuan...

A Note on Successful Bromination....

The reaction I set up yesterday was very successful. It went according to plan, and at my best estimates, I have approximately 95% pure 4-bromoresorcinol.
Tomorrow, I'll recrystallize the crude product that I have and get an idea of % yield. My hope is that it is at least 80%.

Anyway, here are some TLC plates from today's analysis:

A Prisoners Testament.

Posted 01-28-2009 at 02:22 AM by theblackalchemist (Blindness Manifested... life in a poetic motion)
The earth is spotted with black gains,
Blood and fear, rush in again.
No matter, how much I refrain,
For unholiness gains, resurrects pain.
Blood stains remain, even after so many rains.

The bell begins its chime,
Running low are the sands of time,
My spirit’s the only thing that’s mine,
As death begins its mystic mime.

My hopes reach finality
My dreams crash, with reality,
My soul, battles the dark openness,
Beckoning...

The WOunds of War

Stained Spirits

The darkness looms on the brazen sky,
Death claws its icy hands
Even as the river passes by,
Blood stains remain on the sands.

When the devils, on the earth tread;
When the hopes are shred,
Why for a bubbled pride many a blood is shed?
Why for a matter of religious cries, many a life is bled?

For a moment's glory, nothing mattered,
Except for a mind shattered.
Ruthlessly they slayed,
Spreading...
