This post is to let you all know about a new web reference that recently launched.

It is called Book of Odds and its mission is to be world’s first reference on the odds of everyday life. It is a destination where people come to learn about the things that worry or excite them, to read engaging and thoughtful articles, and to participate in a community of users that share their interests and ambitions.

Hopefully health teachers will use the site to relate common (and uncommon) health risks to to their students in a way that students can relate to, engage with, and enjoy.

For instance, Book of Odds states that, "The odds a female will ever be diagnosed with breast cancer are 1 in 8.28 (US, 2004 - 2006)."

This could be used this month when teaching your students about breast cancer awareness.
