Project Synopsis
The objective of this project is to design a biased survey and then to show that the survey was indeed biased. By keeping track of the news in the newspaper for a week, find the 'biggest' news stories. The group should rank the top 5 stories in order of importance. The group will then design two surveys, one whose outcome is designed to reflect the news topics in the same order the group has chosen and the other designed to have the opposite outcome. The project will describe the techniques used to engineer the desired outcome, represent the data, and make conclusions about the effectiveness of the technique using the data gathered.

Introduction: Gambling is a big business and a lot of money is made at casinos. The casino earnings are then taxed by the government and create a lot of revenue for the country. Venezuela is considering legalizing gambling, for instance, privatizing the Hotel Avila as a casino hotel in order to generate more money for the state.
Objective: Choose an existing casino game or create your own game. Explain the rules of the game and then calculate the probabilities of winning. Play the game with a few friends to find the experimental probabilities of winning. Use your theory and data to show that the casino always has the highest chance of winning.
