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.

I was making coffee this afternoon when I decided to open and vote the mail-in ballot that's been laying on the counter about 10 days. I marked my choices but when I tried to put the ballot into the envelope, it was sealed. I wondered aloud what I was supposed do so my ballot wouldn't be disqualified or mailed back. Then I heard the television report a news bit that a different glue had been used on the mail in ballots and that it was ok to open the envelope, insert the ballot and tape the envelope.
