POPSDo you always believe other people's claim?
We often have to make decisions based on what other people state or claim. However, how do you know if their statement or claim is a solid and valid argument? For example, we all enjoy going out for dinner with family and friends. When you pick up and look at the restaurant's menu, you notice there is a significant automatic charge for service that will be included in your bill. You question this charge with the owner of the restaurant, who tells you the charge is due to the trend in which large parties often pay less in tips than small parties. Would you take as a fact what the owner claimed? Mathematics is a useful tool to prove or disprove someone's claim. The excerpts clipped to this post came from an interesting article from Plus Magazine web site (i.e. Issue 49), which explains how Statistics is used to make sense of all the information we receive from different sources. I encourage you to read the article and become aware how mathematics can help you make informed decisions.

POPSSoda-Club Penguin – homemade sodas & seltzer on your countertop We're trying to move away from disposable/recyclable products and toward reusable ones, so this countertop soda & seltzer maker sounds great. (Less thrilled that all the soda mixes include Splenda, but there are other mix-ins one could use, I'm sure. I already have a good recipe for a zingy homemade ginger ale syrup, for starters.)
