National Museum Wales Acquires Picasso's "Still Life with Poron"
Pablo Picasso, "Still Life with Poron", 1948. © Succession Picasso/DACS 2009.
A new, free display, bringing together mid 20th century still life paintings, including Pablo Picassos striking "Still Life with Poron" (1948) - the first oil painting by the artist to enter a Welsh public collection - will be on view at
National Museum Cardiff
from Tuesday, 10 November 2009.
"Still Life with Poron" has been acquired by Amgueddfa Cymru - National Museum Wales for £1.435 million through its Centenary Fund which was created with equal match funding from the Derek Williams Trust over a period of five years. The Fund has contributed £1.335 million to the acquisition, which is also supported by a significant grant from independent charity The Art Fund (£100,000).
The Centenary Fund has been a joint initiative between Amgueddfa Cymru and the Derek Williams Trust to mark the Museums centenary by making exceptional acquisitions of modern art. The Picasso still life is the most important of these. It will be shown initially alongside work by other leading artists of the 20th-century including Paul Cézanne, Giorgio Morandi and Ceri Richards.
"Still Life with Poron", purchased from E & R Cyzer Gallery, London features a lobster, lemon and a Poron (or porrón - a traditional Spanish wine pitcher) which are laid out on a kitchen table. The work was painted in the artists studio on the Rue des Grands Augustins in Paris in December 1948.
Picasso, the most influential artist of the twentieth century, painted still lives throughout his career. He used the subject of still life to experiment with a wide range of styles and approaches. Although painted after the Second War, "Still Life with Poron" references Picassos single most important innovation the development of Cubism in the first decade of the twentieth century.
Oliver Fairclough, Keeper of Art, Amgueddfa Cymru National Museum Wales explains why the purchase is so important to the Museum. He said: Amgueddfa Cymru has four works on paper by Picasso and acquired a significant group of the artists autograph ceramics for the collection as part of the Centenary Fund last year. Although this is a good representation of Picassos work, an oil painting was missing. "Still Life with Poron" completes our portrayal of one of the greatest creative geniuses of the last century.
By the 1940s every progressive painter had to adjust to or reject Picassos work. Therefore he is as relevant in Wales and in Britain as anywhere. This painting connects the Museums great School of Paris works Manet, Monet, Van Gogh and Cézanne with some of its most important paintings of the postwar period, including the work of artists such as Ceri Richards and Graham Sutherland who had such strong links to Wales.
Minister for Heritage, Alun Ffred Jones commented: I am pleased to hear that Amgueddfa Cymru - National Museum Wales has managed to acquire a work by an artist of Picasso's stature. It reflects the commitment by both the Museum and the Welsh Assembly Government to transforming National Museum Cardiff into a place to see world-class art."
Michael Houlihan, Director General, Amgueddfa Cymru National Museum Wales added: We are grateful to the independent trusts who have made this purchase possible namely Cardiff-based charity the Derek Williams Trust - our partners in the Centenary Fund and The Art Fund who have provided generous support. Without the backing of such trusts, museums and art galleries would find it extremely difficult to develop their collections in what continues to remain a highly competitive market for such great pieces.
According to Ivan Sadka, chairman of the Derek Williams Trust: Bringing this painting into the National Museums collection is a fitting tribute to our founder Derek Williams who died 25 years ago this month, as he had a passion for the art of the mid-20th century.
The Art Fund also recognises the significance of this work to Wales. Andrew Macdonald, Acting Director of The Art Fund said: National Museum Cardiff is home to many important works by 20th-century masters, but until now, it had no paintings by Picasso. It is entirely right that a work by the greatest master of the last century should join the Welsh national collection, and The Art Fund is extremely pleased to provide the final funds needed to buy the painting, which has spent a large part of its life so far in private hands and will be enjoyed by the public for years to come.
E & R Cyzer is proud to be involved in the sale of "Still Life with Poron". Richard Cyzer from the Bruton Street gallery in London said: We are delighted to be involved in this transaction of a fine example of Pablo Picassos work from a notable date for the artist.
Admission to National Museum Cardiff to view the new display (from 10 November 2009) is free thanks to the support of the Welsh Assembly Government.
In September 2010, visitors to National Museum Cardiff will be given a further opportunity to enjoy what currently features in the Museums modern collection through new exhibitions in the Museums centre block. This will be followed by a re-display of its extensive post-1950 art collection in summer 2011.

You can manage this and all other alerts in My Account The alert will be sent to: Confirm × Sign In or Create a free account to receive alerts. × In this tutorial, the characteristics of compression amplification in analog hearing aids and the experimental results obtained with single- and multichannel compression amplification systems are reviewed. Single-channel compression systems are classified into four broad groups on the basis of their static and dynamic characteristics: compression limiters, syllabic compressors, automatic volume control (AVC) systems, and "others," those with adaptive recovery time (aRT) and dual frontend automatic gain control (AGC) (Moore, 1990; Moore & Glasberg, 1988). Multichannel compression devices have, to date, used a variety of different types of compression, with syllabic compression in each frequency channel being the most popular. Experimental evidence suggests that compression limiting is generally superior to peak clipping as a means of controlling output, except for some individuals with severe to profound hearing loss. There is some evidence that syllabic compression and AVC systems enhance speech perception in quiet compared to conventional linear amplification; however, this improvement is not consistently maintained in the presence of background noise. The majority of recent research has focused on multichannel compression, and favorable results have been obtained with some systems. Research findings about the efficacy of using compression amplification for people with hearing loss have been extremely variable, and possible reasons for this are discussed.

Two recent studies on elder financial abuse were recently published— one suggesting the problem is far bigger than we think and the other suggesting it's much smaller. In addition, there are a few government and private initiatives starting to seriously attack the scourge of financial exploitation of older Americans—considered the most prevalent form of elder abuse.
It's a problem that Kathleen Quinn, Executive Director of the National Adult Protective Services Association, called "rampant, largely invisible, expensive and lethal" at a recent Senate Special Committee on Aging hearing on the subject. In fact, as reported in a recent Forbes article titled "Why Elder Financial Abuse Is Such A Slippery Crime," a new study asserts that financial elder abuse costs $36.5 billion annually—more than 12 times the figures that MetLife has published in the past few years. Conflicts of interest aside, it's well accepted that much of the financial abuse with seniors often goes unreported. This can be due to shame and embarrassment of the victims. According to a New York State Elder Abuse Prevalence Study, only one in 44 cases is reported.
Each type of fraud has a different age spectrum. Investment scams peak around age 65, and work-from-home scams, dating scams, weight loss, and most Internet scams are more common at a bit younger age. Finally, theft by family members peaks much later.
While attempting to determine the extent of financial elder abuse is difficult, curbing it is even tougher. Elder abuse frequently will involve overlapping types of crimes, such as neglect and physical and sexual assault. Further, many caregivers, family members, financial services employees, and police officers simply are not trained in preventing, detecting or dealing with financial exploitation of the elderly. Add to this a lack of coordination between agencies and professionals, and you can see the scope of the issue.
Fortunately, our government is getting more involved. The 2015 White House Conference on Aging has made "elder justice" one of its four tracks. Also, a government working group known as the Elder Justice Coordinating Council, the Department of Justice, HHS's Administration for Community Living and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau's Office for Older Americans have teamed up to gather data and create materials for professionals and family members. The Securities and Exchange Commission is also getting more involved. Its first Investor Advocate says one of his agency's priorities is to give financial service professionals more effective tools to protect clients whenever an adviser or registered representative suspects financial or other abuse of a vulnerable client.
At Idaho Estate Planning, we understand the challenges faced by elder Americans and their families. We have resources throughout the Treasure Valley, experts in the field of Elder Care. We have the experience and expertise to help you maintain your options and protect yourself as well as your loved ones now and into the future. Remember, good planning is no accident.

A truly evil, despicable kid. Also, please don't make him out to be some kind of victim saying that he probably gets beaten at home. I was beaten by my parents as well but I never kicked the hell out of toddlers or behaved like this in any way. Some kids aren't even neglected by their family or society as a hole but they still act like pieces of ****(killing and torturing animals, hurting other children etc.) I've seen it growing up.

I edited the reformat subroutine so that it now properly handles the input you described. Thank you for pointing out that bug. :) I can see no reason to not (italics) use ~~ Whenever I put $num in that particular line of code, it would store $4 in $3 for some reason. Eventually since I already had it written and working, I decided to not fix what wasn't broken. Maybe I'll change it later. I removed the useless (?:) groupings you described. It is worth mentioning that my regex for verbose contains redundancies, but intentionally so for the sake of being explicit. I like your eval join part, but I think you will find the parsing this problem requires is much more involved than tr/()// In reply to Re^2: Polish Prefix Calculator

District Collector Smita Sabharwal on Friday pulled up Mandal Educational Officers (MEOs), headmasters and social welfare hostel wardens for failing to properly monitor the performance of students preparing for SSC examinations.
At a seminar on "integrated approach in teaching and motivation" organised by the District Educational Department here, the Collector instructed the MEOs to inspect the schools to oversee the performance of students and also the conduct of classes by the subject teachers.
She expressed concern over MEOs not visiting the schools regularly and warned them of serious consequences if they do not mend their ways.
'Monitor performance'
When the headmasters informed that the students studying in hostels were irregular to school, the Collector grilled the social welfare hostel wardens of Jagtial. At one stage, she instructed the authorities to suspend the Jagtial BC hostel warden.
She instructed the wardens and matrons to closely monitor the performance of the students in coordination with the school teachers and headmasters.
About 31,000 and odd government students would appear for the examinations. The subject teachers of Maths and Physical Sciences and also Telugu should concentrate on improving the performance of students as majority of them were failing to clear these subjects.

Excellent Service by Weight - 02/18/2015
I have used SameDay a few time and each time they have given excellent service.
Air Conditioning Tune-Up by Annie Vabn Alstyne - 05/20/2014
Blake has been taking care of our furnaces and air conditioning units for many years. We request him, because he is a sincere, hard working and thorough technician. He has a wonderful manner, and even endured a melt down of mine last September with a great deal of compassion and patience! He is knowledgeable and explains everything with great attention to detail and with clarity.We understand he plans to go to school full time in the fall, but we hope you will allow him to come tune up our furnace in between his classes!He is a valuable asset to your company.Best wishes,Annie Van Alstyne
Great Service! by Bryn - 04/01/2014
I have been thoroughly satisfied with the service of Same Day Heating & Air. They are professional and prompt in their service. I feel good about them being in my home. They were helpful with helping me know how to fill out my Rebate Forms and knowing how to send them in correctly. I feel comfortable with calling them about any questions I have come across. The serviceman, Larry McReynold's, is one of the most genuinely nice people around. He goes out of his way to ensure that his customers are very pleased with their purchase. There aren't many people as kind as Larry around. The Installation Technician, Nate, and the Tune Up Technician, Blake Brinkerhoff, are both great employees that I would recommend to all. I highly recommend this company and know that you will be very happy with their service and products!
Great Service by powell - 02/06/2014
We had a flooded basement and Kevin came to our rescue. He was prompt, neat in his appearance, and did a great job explaining everything that he was going to do and checking on things that needed to be done to avoid future problems. I really appreciate the great, professional, prompt service.
Above and Beyond by Beth P - 12/11/2013
My furnace wasn t heating the house properly during a time when the weather was very cold and my baby was really sick. Not only did Lee come very fast but also early to resolve the issue. He was very knowledgeable, fast, kind, and went way above and beyond to fix an issue. He even had his supervisor, Buddy come and assess the situation to get it resolved quickly and the right way. Many thanks to them both!
Alice by Alice - 11/23/2013
Lee has been to my home several times for my annual furnace checkup and I've always found his work to be thorough and his suggestions advised.
Jane by Great Service - 11/21/2013
Same Day Heating & Air has been providing service for me for the last 10 years. They are always very pleasant. Today, Lee and Cleigh came out and for the first time showed me and thoroughly explained items that needed replacement / repair. Having regular service saved me any expense in the first 10 years. Nice guys and totally trust them!
John and Brad helped us greatly by Chris M. - 09/29/2013
We thought we only needed some work on our kitchen sink (which they very competently performed) but the day before we called them we found our whole house cutoff valve was leaking. This too they very competently fixed for us. We were and are very satisfied.
Good Service by F. Murphy - 09/18/2013
We have contracted with SameDay Heating and Air to do routine checks of the furnace and A/C for the last 3 years. We felt they were honest and didn't try to sell us unneeded equipment. We had an issue with the A/C and called them to diagnose a couple of weeks after a technician had checked the unit and declared it OK. There was no charge for the call and we felt they were honest in their opinion. We ultimately opted to purchase a new A/C and Furnace as our furnace was 20 yrs +/- old. They did a professional job quickly and left the premises clean. There were a couple of minor issues afterword that probably should have been caught during installation but they were fixed promptly. Overall we felt they were professional and honest.
Job Well Done by Norma Nelson - 09/11/2013
Kevin Jake & Brad worked at my house part of two days. They were grate guys to work with. They were willing to do whatever it took to get the job done. They fixed and cleaned up a really dirty wet mess no complaints and pleasant even as the hour grew late. Great Job Guys I would recommend you any time. Thank you for a great job.

Bertrand Russell Poem about Love
To fear love is to fear life, and those who fear life are already three parts dead.
Bertrand RussellPassive acceptance of the teacher's wisdom is easy to most boys and girls. It involves no effort of independent thought, and seems rational because the teacher knows more than his pupils; it is moreover the way to win the favour of the teacher unless he is a very exceptional man. Yet the habit of passive acceptance is a disastrous one in later life. It causes man to seek and to accept a leader, and to accept as a leader whoever is established in that position.
Bertrand RussellThree passions, simple but overwhelmingly strong, have governed my life: the longing for love, the search for knowledge, and unbearable pity for the suffering of mankind.
Bertrand RussellI'm not a woman. I'm a force of nature.
Courtney LoveI'm driven. I am. I'm driven for some reason. But I don't know where I'm going.
Courtney LoveWe have, in fact, two kinds of morality side by side; one which we preach but do not practise, and another which we practise but seldom preach.
Bertrand RussellWhen the intensity of emotional conviction subsides, a man who is in the habit of reasoning will search for logical grounds in favour of the belief which he finds in himself.
Bertrand RussellNot to be absolutely certain is, I think, one of the essential things in rationality.
Bertrand RussellThose who forget good and evil and seek only to know the facts are more likely to achieve good than those who view the world through the distorting medium of their own desires.
Bertrand RussellThere is much pleasure to be gained from useless knowledge.
Bertrand RussellTo be without some of the things you want is an indispensable part of happiness.
Bertrand RussellOne of the symptoms of an approaching nervous breakdown is the belief that one's work is terribly important.
Bertrand RussellLife has taught us that love does not consist of gazing at each other, but in looking together in the same direction.
Antoine de Saint-ExuperyThere is always some madness in love. But there is also always some reason in madness.
Friedrich NietzscheLove is like a friendship caught on fire. In the beginning a flame, very pretty, often hot and fierce, but still only light and flickering. As love grows older, our hearts mature and our love becomes as coals, deep-burning and unquenchable.
Bruce LeeThe course of true love never did run smooth.
William ShakespeareLove is a trap. When it appears, we see only its light, not its shadows.
Paulo CoelhoI believe love is primarily a choice and only sometimes a feeling. If you want to feel love, choose to love and be patient.
Real Live PreacherTo be capable of steady friendship or lasting love, are the two greatest proofs, not only of goodness of heart, but of strength of mind.
William HazlittTo be brave is to love someone unconditionally, without expecting anything in return. To just give. That takes courage, because we don't want to fall on our faces or leave ourselves open to hurt.

text: Harry Houdini was performing in a circus with his wife when he began dreaming about an even bigger career. This film recalls the highlights of his career, including his 1912 stunt that established him as the world's greatest escape artist. In that instance, Houdini had himself lowered into New York's East River in a crate that was wrapped in chains. In less than a minute, he escaped and came to the surface as both an admired and famous man. Archival footage and dramatic re-creations performed by professional escape artist Bob Fellows allow viewers to revisit some of Houdini's major stunts. On-camera interviews with such people as illusionist David Copperfield, psychic claims investigator James Randi, and many others shed light on Houdini's performing techniques. Actor Mandy Patinkin narrates this probing looking into this performer's life. ~ Elizabeth Smith, Rovi

While the tourists flock to Glenwood Spring's world famous hot springs pool, locals avoid the crowds and commercialism and sneak over to this tiny pool of hot water. Located along the banks of the Colorado River, a few yards east of a rafting company's take-out spot in Two Rivers Park, this tiny water pocket is fed by the hot spring's pool itself. The water is hotter than 90 degrees, and its amphitheater of stone can fit five to six people.

The dispute centers on the expired teachers contract that has been in negotiations for more than three years. The contract expired Aug. 31, 2010, and teachers have been working under the terms of the old contract without getting any raises.
The union contends teachers legally should have received a "step" raise in 2010-11 even though the contract expired Aug. 31, 2010. Teacher contracts give raises every year up to a set number of years, called steps. The union's position hinged on a matter of days: It argued that the first day of work that school year was Aug. 23, so the contract was still in effect and thus they still should have received the annual step raise for 2010-11
The union sought and got an arbitration hearing and the arbiter ruled in its favor. The LIU, which provides various services to area schools, primarily special education, appealed that decision in county court, where a judge ruled that precedent, including a case in Northwest Area in 2005, makes it clear a court cannot overturn an arbiter's decision unless that decision is "indisputably and genuinely" without basis in the contract.
Audi appealed the case to the Commonwealth Court, prompting the county court judge, Michael Vough, to issue an explanation of his decision and why it should be upheld. That explanation notes such an appeal must be based on errors by the lower court and not on alleged errors by the arbiter. The explanation notes that that Audi failed "to allege any errors by this court," and that the appeal thus should be upheld.
Holland said that means Audi can no longer appeal the case because he has no grounds to do so, but Audi disagreed, saying Vough initially issued a one-sentence ruling without any explanation other than citing the Northwest Area precedent. "I appealed to Commonwealth Court, and you have to tell why you are appealing the lower court order," Audi said. "But the lower court didn't really issue an analysis."
Audi said he can still take the case to Commonwealth Court and get a hearing, but that the LIU board, composed of representatives from the school boards of the 12 member districts, can also decide to pay the money, which would mean giving teachers the step increase for 2010-11 and the same amount for each year since. He didn't know how much that would come to but said "It's a significant amount of money."

Total snowfall = 12 inches
We get that every year after our usual two storms in December. I guess it must be cold too!
I remember those days, Lovely time.
My, just look at all that snow!
J wanted to know where that is, because he wants to go there for Christmas!
Wow. A little bit more than here.
Merry Christmas!
just lovely! Hope we get some of that when we are in NC!
Whaoo..that's really a lot of snow. We will have to fly north to experience snow.
Merry Xmas.
WOW — that is a lot of snow!! We are hoping for a quarter of an inch maybe (cross your fingers with us) on Christmas– just rain right now!! Hope that you have a Very Merry little Christmas!!
Wow… Cold! Brrrrr….
Beautiful!! Wish we'd get some of that in TN!
Being in NJ, I know…I know…. LOL
Happy ww!
Wow, that's some serious snow. I would have gladly taken a few of those inches of your hands
Now that looks like a lot of fun with all that snow!
great pictures. what a winter wonderland! even with all that snow and bundling up, you have a fantastic bag with you. always in style. happy WW and take care.
YIKES! Snow is pretty to look at but I'm so glad I don't live in it!!
Me too, Girl! I like to visit the snow, but I am so glad to leave it all behind and return home to sunny Florida!
At least it feels and looks like Christmas. We have plenty of snow here, too.
My little Sam would be soooo jealous! :o)
Merry Christmas to ALL of you!!
Isn't snow great… I love it only two times… As it is falling and then the day after when everything is snowcovered… Then I wish it would just poof away since I dislike the wet dirty slush it becomes..
Looks like you live in a place that gets lots of snow often. The buildings are beautiful brick.
I was caught in the snowfall that evening with my little one. We had to thaw out in a Chinese restaurant because cabs refused to stop! To say the thrill of seeing snow dampened after that is an understatement! LOL
Yikes!! I hope you are dug out now!! Merry Christmas to you and yours:-)
That's a lot of snow! We just have a dusting here in Buffalo.
Hope you have a Merry Christmas!
wow! I'm not sure I miss that kind of snow, especially the digging out part…
It's so pretty, but such a pain to shovel!
WOW! Looks very cold… =) But pretty.
Wow! You got dumped on! I like snow – but not that much! I prefer the kind that falls and only sticks around for a day or two before it goes away. I guess its a good thing that I live in the NW cause thats pretty much what always happens. Hope you have a happy holiday!
You have a lot more snow than us! Wonderful winter pictures.
Nice!! White Christmas I hope!!
How fun…just in time for Christmas!!
Wasn't this storm incredible? I was amazed to see how much snow fell so quickly.
I live in a suburb of Buffalo New York and a week ago we ended up with over two feet….
However, the winds were really the problem I was worried we'd loose power..
Happy and blessed days..for the coming years..

Dental Crown(Dental Cap)
Rebecca J. Stahl, MA DefinitionA dental crown is a cap that covers a damaged tooth. The crown makes the tooth stronger and also improves how the teeth look. Reasons for Procedure TOPA dental crown may be needed if your tooth is broken, decayed, worn down, or severely discolored. Crowns are also used to:
Possible Complications TOPProblems from the procedure are rare, but all procedures have some risk. Your dentist will review potential problems, like:
Talk to your dentist about these risks before the procedure. What to Expect TOPPrior to ProcedureIt typically takes 2 visits to have a crown placed. Before these appointments, you and your dentist will decide which type of crown is best for you. Different materials are used to create permanent crowns, such as:
You will also have dental exams. The dentist will evaluate the health of your tooth's roots. It is also important that you talk to your dentist if you take any medications, herbs, or supplements. You may need to stop taking some medicines up to 1 week before the procedure. In addition, tell your dentist if you have any heart conditions or joint replacements. You may need to take antibiotics to prevent infection. AnesthesiaLocal anesthesia will be used. Description of the Procedure TOPThe First Visit The area surrounding the tooth will be numbed, usually by injecting a local anesthetic into the gum. Next, the tooth will be prepared for the crown. The surfaces will need to be filed down. If you are missing part of the tooth, material may need to be added to the tooth so that the crown can be placed. This filling material is called a crown buildup. Impressions will be made of your tooth and the surrounding teeth. This is to make sure that the new crown will not impact your bite. The impressions will be sent to a dental lab where the crown will be made. If you are planning to have a porcelain crown, the dentist will help you select a shade that looks like your natural tooth color. Finally, your tooth will be protected by placing a temporary crown on it. The permanent crown should be ready in 2-3 weeks. A newer technique involves digital technology where a permanent crown can be made in the office in an hour or 2. The Second Visit During the second visit, the dentist will numb the area again. The temporary crown will be removed. Cement will be used to secure the new crown in place. How Long Will It Take? TOPYou will need to have about 2 visits over the course of several weeks. Each visit may last about 30-60 minutes. Will It Hurt? TOPYou may have some pain when the local anesthetic is injected. After the procedure, you may have discomfort or sensitivity around your tooth. Post-procedure Care TOPAt the Care Center You will be able to go home after the procedure. At Home When you return home, take these steps:
With the proper care, a crown can last for 5-15 years. Call Your Dentist TOPCall your dentist if:
If you have an emergency, get medical care right away.

I use to think homeopathy was a bunch of bunk, until I began to see the larger picture, due to an unrelated University of Houston experiment with water mineral solutions as reported in Discover Magazine. When the minerals were introduced into the water, the team observed the change in geometrical patterns of the water molecules. When the minerals were molecularly filtered out of the water, the water molecules retained those geometric structures unique to a particular mineral. Once I completed Drunvalo Melchizedek's books "The Ancient Secret of the Flower of Life" volumes 1 and 2, it became clear that a real and scientific possibility lay at the core of homeopathy.
Massimo Citro, MD. In his book, The Basic Code of the Universe, details yet more research into the properties of water and the capacity of water to imprint and retain information. Also research into the impact of the process of succussion on water. Science will get there and in the doing have to eat humble pie on Homeopathy and change or rather, expand, its narrow mindset.
I can't find any mention of this supposed experiment anywhere but here. Of course, the very description of it is suspect, because the molecules in a fluid don't maintain bonds and therefore do not exhibit any geometrical patterns. What water exhibits is Brownian motion, like any other fluid.
' the first scientific proofs that homeopathic dilution is different from plain water have recently been obtained through nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). NMR is a property demonstrated by magnetic nuclei in a magnetic field when an electromagnetic (EM) pulse is applied, causing the nuclei to absorb energy from the EM pulse and radiate this energy back out. The energy radiated back out is at a specific resonance frequency, which depends on the strength of the magnetic field and other factors.
Recent analysis of nuclear magnetic resonance has confirmed that the water in homeopathic dilutions is organized differently than that in the controls. In fact the NMR techniques show that double-distilled water is quite another thing than the highly diluted homeopathic solutions, which show the organized presence of information.
Massimo Citro, M.D.
Hi Rosross.
I read the reference, and will reproduce the text for interested readers in following replies, that fit in TE's size limits. The article really is silly. It passes filtered water through a Pyrex glass filter and notes that the conductivity increases the more you pass it through the filter. It says that the main impurity is Na2O released by the glass, and that that only accounts for 10% to 30% of the increase in the conductivity. It attributes the rest of the increase in conductivity to the filtering. The obvious problem with the paper is that it did not describe how any other impurities were detected, how the concentration of the impurities was measured, what the concentration of the impurities was or how they determined the relationship between the conductivity and the concentration of impurities. One specific issue was that the authors measured sodium to subtract the conductivity or sodium bicarbonate, but, as stated above, not all the sodium was present as sodium bicarbonate. That I went to the trouble of reading that reference, but it was no reference at all.
Nanostructures of Water Molecules in Iteratively Filtered Water

Abstract. This work presents some experimental results on the variation of the physico-chemical
properties of pure, twice distilled water, when subject to a procedure of iterative filtrations through
Pyrex glass filters (Büchner funnels). The study involves the determination of electrical
conductivity. After the filtrations, electrical conductivity increases three times. Part of those
increases, about 10-30%, is to be attributed to impurities released by the glass filters. The
hypothesis is that the remaining 70-90% of the increases comes from variations in the supermolecular
structure of water. The iterative filtration procedure involves a flux of energy and
material in an open system. The energy flux is partially dissipated as heat permitting the formation
of "dissipative structures". Water, the main ingredient of living systems, exhibits an extraordinary
auto-organization potentiality triggered by several kinds of perturbations, including mechanical
Papers on water and aqueous solutions are increasingly featured in scientific literature [1-14].
The idea of water as a system capable of auto-organization triggered by various perturbations
(mechanical and/or electromagnetic) is gaining momentum. Many of the properties evidenced by
these new studies on water are not currently explained in terms of Classic Thermodynamics, but the
Thermodynamics of far-from-equilibrium systems [17,18] may open up new ways of researching
the novel results. Our experience led us to investigate the physico-chemical variations of water
caused by aging in small volumes (less than 10 ml) for long periods, of the order of tens of months.
On the other hand, the importance of filtration in the formation of "aqueous nanostructures" has
been recently highlighted by Luc Montagnier (Nobel laureate in Medicine, 2008) [9]. For these
reasons we introduced a very new protocol to "inform" water, namely an iterative procedure of
Background. The iterative filtration process of a given volume (1-10 ml) of twice distilled water
simply consists in filtrating the liquid in vacuum; getting the filtrate and passing it in a successive
filtration step. The filtration of the filtrate is repeated up to 200 times. Many filters were used in a
preliminary study of the effects of iterative filtrations. Here we report the experimental results using
an R5 (with porosity of 1-5 μm) glass filters (Büchner funnels). The preliminary study assessed that
the qualitative effects on water are the same regardless of the filter type. It was chosen to only
employ Pyrex glass Büchner filters. Because in this case, we can care to account for impurities
released by the glass containers, which would affect electrical conductivities. The main chemical
impurities are derived from alkaline oxide (Na2O) released by the glass. We therefore
systematically determined the sodium concentration of the samples, and can subtract the
contribution of sodium bicarbonate to the conductivity readings. The concentration of the impurities
deriving from the other components of the glass, SiO2, B2O3 and Al2O3, are very low compared to
sodium bicarbonate and do not contribute significantly to electrical conductivity at the low
alkalinity of the iteratively filtered water.
Methods. Conductivity measurements. Systematic measurements of specific conductivity were
performed on the samples, using an YSI 3200 conductometer with a conductivity cell having a
constant of 1.0 cm-1. Before measuring the conductivity of a lot of samples, the cell was calibrated
by determining the cell constant K (cm-1). All conductivities were temperature corrected to 25°C,
using a pre-stored temperature compensation for pure water.
Analytical determination of impurities. The concentration of sodium was determined by
atomic absorption spectrometry using a Varian Spectra A instrument.
The Fig. 1 reports: the volume of the sample subject to iterative filtrations; the number of
iterations, n, the measured electrical conductivity, χ (μS cm-1); the Büchner filter type (R5). When
the number of iterations increases, the specific electrical conductivity always increase. The
conductivity of filtered samples always increase as time flows. The phenomenon is repeatable but
not reproducible, i.e. the numeric outcome varies with the experiment. The picture provided by the
experimental data suggests that the procedure of iterative filtrations modifies the physico-chemical
properties of water. Furthermore there exists a significant "volume effect" [18], whereby the
increase in specific conductivity for each iteration step is higher for small volume samples . In fact,
the roughly linear trends of χ as a function of the number of iterations, using a constant volume of
filtered water, exhibit very different slopes, that are higher for smaller volumes.. Starting with a 10
mL sample volume, one carries out several filtrations producing a roughly linear trend of χ as a
function of n. Then, the sample is partitioned. One part is used for chemical analysis, the other is
used to continue the previous experiments, with n filtrations and a new linear trend of χ, but this
time with a smaller sample volume. The volume partitioning is repeated several times, and each
new linear trend of χ as a function of filtration steps exhibits a higher slope than for the larger
volume at the previous step. For small volumes (less than 3 ml) the slope increases conspicuously.
The repeatability of the procedure was tested many times and qualitatively it works always. Work is
in progress to obtain a better procedure protocol to improve the quantitatively reproducibility
The results of the quantitative determination of impurities show that the contribution from
sodium bicarbonate, the most abundant impurity, increases with the number of filtrations but
remains below 10-30% of the measured parameter. The chemical contribution to the measured
parameters cannot explain their very increases .Conductivity increases more than three times. A
work hypothesis is to consider water filtration akin to water passing through thin capillaries. The
iterative procedure is thus connected with a flux of energy and material in an open system. The
energy flux is partially dissipated as heat enabling the formation of "dissipative structures" [17,18].
A perturbation that appears to trigger the formation of molecular aggregates of water molecules in
the liquid (water clusters, aqueous nanostructures, molecular aggregates of water, dissipative
structures…..) that increase the effects of the proton hopping mechanism [15,16]. Such structures
consequently lead to an increase of χ (μS cm-1).
Obviously we are not able, at this time, to discuss neither the nature of dissipated energy nor the
kind of water structures that are formed, but experimental data underline a very significant variation
of some physico-chemical parameters. Work is in progress to confirm experimental data and to
improve their reproducibility. It is easy to see from both Table and Figure, that the variations of
conductivity are of about three times higher than the initial values. It must be underlined that the
increase of the measured parameters is permanent and often grows while time flows. The systems
under study are non-equilibrium systems in which irreversible processes occur. This truly new field
of research on water opens up a drastically new scenario whereby the sovramolecular structure of
liquid water can be modified via mechanical perturbations, via ageing of the samples, and
particularly via ageing in small volumes. The latter property might be linked to the very different
properties of water contained in biological cells.
