Birthday coincidence

understandinguncertainty.org was produced by the Winton programme for the public understanding of risk based in the Statistical Laboratory in the University of Cambridge. The aim was to help improve the way that uncertainty and risk are discussed in society, and show how probability and statistics can be both useful and entertaining.

Many of the animations were produced using Flash and will no longer work.

in 2004 i ran a uk conference magazine aimed at the trade in the conference and incentive sector-Executive Venturer. I was invited by the Brazilian Tourist board-Embratur- to come to brazil along with a group of Uk buyers responsible for organising meetings and conferences on behalf of clients. While i was there we stayed at AMAZON TOWERS HOTEL -about 45 minutes by boat from Manaus. Executive Venturer ran an article on Brazil with a feature on said hotel. I had the privilege of being invited to the private house of the President and Chief Executive of The Amazon Towers Group. During the time i ran the magazine i did a fair bit of overseas travel as my company was involved on various trade shows-IMEX-FRANKFURT and EIBTM-BARCELONA but on this particular trip my group had covered most of brazil but never did i think that i would meet such an important person who was born on exactly the SAME DATE AND MONTH AS ME-quite a coincidence.
