Here’s a nice<\/strong> interactive chart from NPR<\/a>. It examines unemployment across the country, breaking it down demographically with respect to age and education.<\/p>\n

Watched Thor.<\/strong> It wasn’t terrible. It wasn’t as good or as bad as it could have been. I’m detecting the comic book-turned-movie theme, though. The better ones are the movies without love stories. Thus, Iron Man is the best of the comic book movies, as a function of Tony Stark’s character flaws. <\/p>\n

This isn’t an anti-romantic movie statement, just a comic book observation. Thor had to love interest in the comics, one an Earth woman and another from his home realm. I’m embarrassed to say I looked that up on Wikipedia just now. But I’m guessing kids didn’t pick up Thor for the love story. They wanted flying and hammers and thunder.<\/p>\n

And since director Kenneth Branagh is beyond blame, this can only fall to Natalie Portman.<\/p>\n

Oh someone will blame Loki later, but you’ll know better.<\/p>\n

This is the most clever video cover I’ve seen so far: <\/p>\n
