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 had just moved back to fresno california in 1997 from San Jose, Ca. I started working at software company in Fresno and met a girl named Michelle who also worked at the software company. After a year I moved on to work for the county then many other jobs. In 2012 I connecged with Michelle again and we started dating. We were engaged to be married in 2014. My cousin Erik with whom I am very close to, his life seemed to go a different direction. He was in prison, again and was not going to be attending any wedding anytime soon. Erik and i talked on the phone regularly and he had been transferred to many different prisons because of fighting, but he was finally at a nearby prison and i was making plans to visit him. When i first met michelle she was married to a guy named Hue. Hue was from Clovis and was decent guy but had started using and selling drugs. I asked michelle why had they divorced and she explained that after i met her in 1997, her Hue had moved into a house in clovis they were hoping to buy. Hue had started using a lot of drugs and got out of hand. Something happened one night and he was arrested in 2010 and was currently serving his years in prison. Erik was from Clovis and lived at 525 Princeton in clovis with his mother and step father. My aunt, eriks mom, moved from the house on Princeton in early 2006. One day Michelle and I drove by the princeton house amd i said to her that was my cousins old house.. shefreaked out and said that was the house her and Hue were going to buy. That was the house that he was arrested in. I went home amd told my cousin the next time he called. When i told Erik about this errie connection he laughed and said guess what. The guy in the cell next to his was named Hue, and he was from Clovis to, and he lived at 525 princeton and his exwife was Michelle. Ive got more bizarre connections and ill keep posting them.
