From the Department of Scientific Studies
A year 2000 study found that some bottled water is not nearly as pure as you might think. Quoting the study summary:

"One of the reasons people choose to drink bottled water instead of tap water is because of the perceived purity of bottled water," the researchers observe, and indeed, 39 samples of bottled water were found to be purer than the tap water. However, 15 samples of bottled water had significantly higher bacteria levels than the tap water. Of these 15, the bacteria counts were more than twice as high as the most contaminated tap water sample and almost 2,000 times higher than the purest tap water sample.

From the Fun with Kids department
Science is cool. Here's a list of great projects that you can do with your kids. Have fun with them and teach them a little bit at the same time.

There isn't an easy way to explain this one, but your kids should have fun with it. When you click on each horse they each sing their own little tune.

This one comes all the way from the north pole

This could be a fun project with the kids. JP Brown made a robot out of Lego MindStorm's that actually solves a Rubik's Cube - typically in less than 40 moves and often in less than 20!
