Because of their importance 2013 is the International Year of Statistics. Have a look here:

Just think the number of times we hear average age, average income, or x% of the population ...in news and daily conversation....

Statistics & probability play a large role in our lives, most of us are not aware or don't acknowledge it.

Movies & Math

There are 2 movies I have watched about Math professors along with his genius students , using their skill to win at a casino.

One is "21" in English and the other is "Teen Patti"  in Hindi with Amitabh Bachan.
 http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0478087/ and  http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1183917/

The basis of the movies is really probability, card counting and these fellas are able to mentally compute & bet & win at a casino....now that is knowledge being applied....in a way. But gambling & greed etc come into play and knowledge goes for a toss here.
