Question:
As economists Milton Friedman and Anna J. Schwartz have noted, the decade from 1869 to 1879 saw a growth of 3 percent per year in money national product, an outstanding real national product growth of 6.8 percent per year in this period and a rise of 4.5 percent per year in real product per capita. Even the alleged "monetary contraction" never took place, the money supply increasing by 2.7 percent per year in this period. From 1873 through 1878, before another spurt of monetary expansion, the total supply of bank money rose from $1.964 billion to $2.221 billion, a rise of 13.1 percent or 2.6 percent per year. In short, a modest but definite rise, and scarcely a contraction. Although per-capita nominal income declined very gradually from 1873 to 1879, that decline was more than offset by a gradual increase over the course of the next 17 years.

When did the decline that was more than offset by a gradual increase for per-capita nominal income come to a stop?

question: The Indianapolis Colts and New England Patriots set up for their rivalry game at Lucas Oil Stadium.  The Colts came in at 8-0 while the Patriots came in 6-2, both shooting for home field advantage during the playoffs.  The Colts struck first with a 15-yard pass from Manning to Addai.  However New England answered with 24 unanswered points in the first and second quarter.  The Colts finally got back into the game with a 20-yard touchdown pass to Reggie Wayne towards the end of the first half.  The third quarter was scoreless with the Colts still trailing by 10, but the Patriots started the fourth with a touchdown pass to Randy Moss with the Patriots now leading 31-14.  The Colts came back quickly scoring a touchdown, making it 31-21.  After a New England field goal, the Colts scored a touchdown on an Addai run.  The Patriots were still in the lead 34-28, however the Colts were hot with Peyton Manning ready to lead them to a win if the defense could hold the Patriot offense for one more drive.  With less the two and a half minutes remaining in the game, the New England Patriots were faced with a fourth and two on the Indianapolis 28-yard line.  Bill Belichick decided to go for it on a controversial play, where Brady threw to Kevin Faulk, who gained control of the ball behind the first down marker, forcing the Patriots to turn the ball over on downs. Having wasted their last time out on the preceding play and the play occurring before the two-minute warning, the Patriots couldn't challenge the ruling on the field. With a minute left Peyton Manning found Reggie Wayne for the touchdown to seal a 35-34 victory over the Patriots as the team improved to 9-0 and their winning streak continued with 17 games.

Trying to snap a six-game losing skid, the Raiders flew to Arrowhead Stadium for a Week 12 AFC West rematch with the Kansas City Chiefs. In the first quarter, Oakland took the early lead as kicker Sebastian Janikowski managed to get a 25-yard field goal. However, the Chiefs took the lead with RB Kolby Smith getting a 10-yard TD run. In the second quarter, the Raiders drew closer as Janikowski kicked a 54-yard field goal. However, Kansas City managed to get one last strike prior to halftime as kicker Dave Rayner nailed a 30-yard field goal. In the third quarter, Oakland regained the lead with RB LaMont Jordan getting a 5-yard TD run.  However, the Chiefs retook the lead with Smith getting a 5-yard TD run.  In the fourth quarter, the Raiders once again jumped into the lead as RB Justin Fargas got a 14-yard TD run.  This time, the defense managed to hold on for the win. With the win, not only did the Raiders improve to 3-8, but they managed to do four things with their one win. First, they snapped their six-game losing skid. Second, they snapped a nine-game losing skid to the Chiefs. Third, they snapped a 17-game losing streak against divisional opponents with their first divisional win since 2004. And finally, they surpassed their regular season win total from last season.

Question:
The Redskins traveled to Texas Stadium in Irving, Texas to take on one of their NFC East rivals, the Dallas Cowboys in a Sunday Night match-up.  The Redskins trailed early, as Dallas kicker Mike Vanderjagt completed a 26-yard field goal and Drew Bledsoe completed a 4-yard TD pass to WR Patrick Crayton in the first quarter.  In the second quarter, kicker John Hall would get Washington a 39-yard field goal, but Dallas responded with RB Marion Barber's 1-yard TD run.  RB Rock Cartwright would return a kickoff 100 yards for a TD, but that would be the last time in the entire game that Redskins would score a single point.  Even though there wouldn't be a single point scored in the third quarter, the Cowboys sealed the win with a 40-yard TD pass to WR Terry Glenn and a 50-yard field goal by Vanderjagt. With the loss, the Redskins dropped to 0-2. Stats
