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.
My brother and I call each other at most once a year. A few years ago, I decided to give him a ring. It wasn't either of our birthdays or anything like that, I just thought he might appreciate the effort. When I picked up the telephone, as I listened to make sure I had a dial tone, I heard his voice on the line. He had just called but the phone had not had a chance to ring before I had picked it up.
