Friday, July 24, 2015. Income Inequality and Max Lines. CityLab, the Atlantic's blog about urban issues, has a nice set of visualizations about income along fixed-route transit lines inspired by The New Yorker's. New York City Subway Project. Portland is one of the cities featured. Go there and click on the others for comparison as well as comparing across Atlanta, Chicago and Washington, DC. Wonder how the installation of fixed-route transit affects gentrification of the neighborhoods served? OPBs Think...

Saturday, January 24, 2015. Why Free Agency Would Improve the Level of Play in MLS. Excited about the return of the Portland Timbers? Well, temper that enthusiasm because it appears more and more likely that the MLS is headed toward a work stoppage. With the key sticking point free agency for players. There are two counter arguments that I can think of. First, a team might have a high valuation on a player because they are simply weather. This is true in the Designated Player market but the re-entry ...

The Oregon Economics Blog: February 2015
http://oregonecon.blogspot.com/2015_02_01_archive.html
Monday, February 23, 2015. My mother sent me a link to this fascinating visualization of global shipping (thanks mum! And just for some context, here is a snapshot of global trade since 1950:. Even more context: the first real voyage of a container ship was in 1966 (though the idea was first tested in 1955). Since then, container shipping has revolutionized the industry and the result can be seen in the two visualizations above. Tweeted me this cool link. For real time shipping data. Thanks Dave!

The Oregon Economics Blog: More Adventures in Non-Linear Pricing
http://oregonecon.blogspot.com/2015/06/more-adventures-in-non-linear-pricing.html
Friday, June 19, 2015. More Adventures in Non-Linear Pricing. From an ice cream cart in PDX. Very good ice cream though.
