I came across a series of graphs showing economic trends during the past few presidential eras. Rather than remake the graphs from scratch and provide witty commentary, I’ll just quote Michael Hanscom.
Ontario Emperor pointed out a series of graphs from Buzzflash highlighting some of the numbers behind how our country is doing. Not that surprising if you’ve been paying attention, but certainly interesting to see.

Final score: Minn 43- Northwestern 17.
Interesting fact:
Marion Barber III racked up 86 yards rushing, 23 yards receiving, and 21 yards passing for a touchdown. Quite the versatile player.

Flickr: Photos from Brad Froehle – just trying out Flickr. It’ll be interesting to see how much the pro version will cost. Seems like a slick way to setup public albums, etc.
