Economics and Race:
"Twenty-seven-year-old Harvard economist Roland Fryer grew up poor and black, in a family that was falling apart. His mother abandoned him. His father drank heavily and beat him.

Yet another twist to your 15 minutes.
Your photo could be on the grocer's shelf next. The one we got sports a
'Tsunami Evacuation Route' sign photo. Just don't suggest rotten celery as a new flavor.

The Humble Penny?
A site to help visualize large numbers with the common US coin. And to think I've been cursing them for so long. If I'd saved 10 million of the little buggars I'd have $100k.
