In response to Interactive Map: Job Gains and Losses in the Recovery by Job Type (Healthcare, Education, Mining, Construction, Finance, Real Estate, etc), I exchanged Emails with Salil Mehta who has a blog on Statistical Ideas.

One of the more interesting aspects to this new data transparency is an array of gun permit appeals, essentially a list of Philadelphians who have been denied a gun permit or had their permit revoked and who have [...] PLEASE NOTE: Exclusive: Homeland Security Kept Tabs on Occupy Wall Street RollingStone By Phil Izzo, WSJ Nearly 15% of the U.S. population relied on food stamps in August, as the number of recipients hit 45.8 million.

According to the attached interactive map, based on Google News data, in the past week, there have been 88 reported instances of protest somewhere in the world.
