Directed by Andrew Butte, this is an entry for UCLA Fund’s 4th video contest “I Love UCLA.”

What does it mean to say “smokers are X times more likely to get lung cancer than non-smokers?” What about
when the weather channel says, “there is a 10% chance of rain?” The odds of 1 to 10 of winning?
These words are often used in casual conversations as somewhat interchangeable, and can be rather confusing. I remember being very excited to learn about them for the first time, so hopefully you will find this as interesting (or at least as clarifying!) as I did!
In which of the following scenario are you most likely to find dessert happiness? Which ones are saying the same thing?
A. The odds against you eating a cupcake are 1 to 5.
B. Your odds of/on eating a cupcake are 1 to 5.
C. The probability of you eating a cupcake is 20%.
D. You have a 20% chance of eating a cupcake.
Answers, in short: A is the most likely-for-cupcake scenario, and C and D are saying the same thing.

Meet Oryon Essoe, Prime Minister of Rissland. He works day and night to make Rissland a participant-friendly research space.
He is very smug because he built a classroom space in a tree-house today.
