Water weird idea
LIQUID water, as you may recall from your school days, takes on the shape of the container in which it is placed. But that鈥檚 not all it takes on, reports Anneliese O鈥機allaghan. She discovered TC Energy Design carafes, glass vases that, according to the Mesa Creative Arts website, use the 鈥渟tructural physics of Sacred Geometry鈥� to restructure liquids placed within, enhancing the taste and improving their biological value.
Disguised as regular glass carafes, the containers are necessary because, we are told, 鈥渟ending water through straight pipes and sharp, right angle bends at high pressure, filtering, distilling鈥� robs water of its natural life force.鈥� These carafes restore the primordial memory of the water, which can then be transferred to your own body.

To borrow a phrase from luxury watchmaker Patek Philippe, you never actually consume a bellyful of water, you merely look after it for the next generation. We would prefer our water stripped of any memories of where it has been. And ideally cleansed of Cryptosporidium and any other .

Moon mystery
FURTHER to the Flat Earther鈥檚 challenge to prove them wrong (15 April), Paul Rendell writes 鈥淚 was on honeymoon in Kenya, near the equator, and saw the moon close to the horizon.鈥� Here, says Paul, it appeared at a totally new angle from the one he was used to.
Travelling from one pole to the other, anyone can see the moon turn through 180 degrees 鈥� almost as if they had traversed one side of a sphere, keeping their feet pointed to the centre at all times.
Flat Earthers, we鈥檙e sure, have an esoteric explanation for this phenomenon: perhaps the moon rolls around the curved heavens like a coin in a fishbowl. Which makes us wonder, do Flat Earthers think all planets are flat, or just our own?
Clean living
A COMPANY run by British politician Andrew Haigh sells a health supplement that resembles industrial bleach, reports . Haigh was made national organiser for Wales for the right-wing populist UK Independence Party in 2015. His company sells 鈥淎erobic Oxygen鈥�, an element that is said to be the key to treating everything from low energy levels to 鈥渂owl cancer鈥�.
The liquid appears to be similar to the infamous Miracle Mineral Solution, a sodium chlorite cure-all that the Food Standards Agency has issued more than one warning about.
While some might accuse UKIP of having a preoccupation with whiteness, it would be an unusual strategy for any party to encourage constituents to drink bleach.
Keep a cool head
RESPONDING to US senator Scott Wagner鈥檚 theory that human body heat might be behind global warming (15 April), Ian Napier writes: 鈥淪omeone once claimed that most body heat is lost through the head. Global warming has escalated as hats have gone out of fashion. Coincidence?鈥�. If only there were some way to arrest this situation 鈥� perhaps some heat-reflecting headgear made of a metallic foil-like material?
A seminal idea
COME again? Tracy Kiss splashes into our collective consciousness again to exhort the medical benefits of human semen. The personal trainer told The Sun newspaper in with her breakfast smoothie, a daily practice she claims boosts her immune system, if somewhat challenging her dietary status as a vegan.
Previously, Kiss made headlines using the unusual ingredient in a face mask to treat rosacea, demonstrating that widespread media coverage is one of the few guaranteed effects of consuming sperm. Medics warn that ingesting semen poses a risk of contracting STIs, and has little nutritional value. Feedback notes that sperm has also been shown to cause dramatic weight gain, the effects of which can take .
Cool tunes
PERHAPS wishing to revisit some late 90s mixtapes, Tony Lang found himself digging out an old Sony MiniDisc player and set about transferring the music to his hard drive. 鈥淭he manual had an interesting section about connecting it to a computer,鈥� he says, 鈥渋n which they recommend using a resistance-free cable.
鈥淚鈥檇 love to comply,鈥� says Tony, 鈥渂ut even if I could afford the superconducting cables, the rest of my hi-fi is at room temperature, so keeping the cables at cryogenic temperatures could be a bit tricky.鈥�
Air delivery
A CASE of the vapours: a company set up in Beverly Hills introduces Californians to 鈥渢he inhalable multivitamin鈥�. VitaminVapor is a sort of e-cigarette that claims to deliver essential B vitamins directly to the bloodstream.
says this is more efficient than oral supplements. We presume it also poses much less risk of scuffing the expensive dental work of any celebrity clients.
As California has already reduced meals into the pallid nutrient goop known as Soylent, Feedback wonders if the next stage will be to cram this in turn into an inhaler, a sort of Campbell鈥檚 condensed soup for your vape stick.
