The data is expressed as a percent of population (over 16 yrs old in this case) rather than a number so as to have a basis of comparison between years, months, etc. Your proposition is already inherent in the numbers.

Nope, I put it there in plain numbers for ya, nothing fuzzy about that. Gave you the data, gave you my conclusion. Just because Drool read it for a way to instigate rather for comprehension doesn't make it fuzzy.

Duh...notice the "effective" term? Add the 1% increase in people who left the labor force and you have 2.8% math wiz.

I only know what worked for me. I was having problems in one shoulder for about 3 years. I tried rest, stretching, massage, rotator cuff exercises like the int/ext rotation. What eventually worked for me was strengthening the entire shoulder through military press on a smith rack and machine, bench press, and incline bench press. I think part of my problem was muscle imbalances where the medial and frontal deltoid and pec was much weaker than the rear delt and lat/rhomboid etc and it cause instability and levering on the joint. It feels almost normal again after 12 weeks of weights.

Ah Peter "the price is Right" Puget - I checked out the stats in your link (nice database btw) and here is what I found: In Dec 2000, the unemployment rate was 3.9%, the labor force participation rate was 67% In Dec 2003, the unemployment rate was 5.7%, the labor force participation rate was 66% That's an effective increase in unemployment of 2.8% Of course one could attribute the participation rate dip to an aging population...alternatively one could attribute it to exhausted unemployment and discouraged workers temporarily leaving the labor force. One might interpret these numbers to mean that today's equivalent rate of unemployment, when compared to Dec 2000, is actually 6.7%

The vast majority of our imports come from outside the country. If we don't succeed, we run the risk of failure. One word sums up probably the responsibility of any Governor, and that one word is 'to be prepared'. I have made good judgments in the past. I have made good judgments in the future. The future will be better tomorrow. We're going to have the best educated American people in the world. I stand by all the misstatements that I've made. We have a firm commitment to NATO, we are a part of NATO. We have a firm commitment to Europe. We are a part of Europe. Public speaking is very easy. A low voter turnout is an indication of fewer people going to the polls. We are ready for any unforeseen event that may or may not occur. For NASA, space is still a high priority. It isn't pollution that's harming the environment. It's the impurities in our air and water that are doing it.

I see weapons of mass destruction!!

Yeeesss, Dr. B, indeed my good man. Your quote from the article there sounds quite similar to something I said in an earlier thread:

I've been under a rain of PBR cans and pistachio shells at the Butte before. Don't leave anything up top, watch out for dirty needles and soiled underwear at the base, and wear your helmet. There are some fun climbs there. Enjoy!

your fishing ignorance is high. You know not of what you speak C'mon down to the south sometime, bedding largemouth in April will just about rip a buzzbait or pig-n-jig to pieces. And the crappie will hit medium-deep trolled plastic grubs like crazy. Freshwater fishin' is good fun.

You guys are funny. The post CBS linked was a blatant troll, the guy must buy his line on a 1000m spools to hook 'em from that far away.

Tell the kids in banned camp I said Hi

C'mon, people who want to read "Which shoes should I buy?", "Places to toprope in Connecticut?", and "What is the hardest V2 on the rock-gym's 45 wall?" threads twice a week use rc.com. The signal to noise at rc.com is as high or higher than here, but here the noise is at least way more entertaining. Without spray, you'd have no Mounties on the cover of the Joshua Tree album...think about that one. As long as spray stays in Spray, who cares. If it's a big deal, write some code that takes Spray posts out of the "last 25" or "last 50" searches and put the spray topic at the bottom of the main page, downsize the font so you really have to know where to look. There are plenty of ways to put a cleaner "public face" on the place without altering the character.

Ellensburg, just look at the resources. Here's a factor I wish someone had stressed to me: Look at the male to female ratio of the schools before you decide! If you want a school with awesome year-round climbing of all types nearby, Mesa State in Grand Junction might be the single best college in the country. Don't laugh ya'll...multi-pitch (up to 800ft or so)granite in Unaweep Canyon with plenty of new route possibilies right on the edge of town, cool sandstone bouldering on the edge of town, Rifle limestone sportness 1.5 hr, Indian Creek 2 hr, Ouray 2 hrs, Black Canyon 2 hrs, and countless other stuff within 3 hrs. The town is mediocre, but the resources are unbelievable. World class climbing, mtn biking, canyoneering, and more right there. A close second in my book is Dixie State College in St. George. Again, year round climbing on tons of different rock with Zion big wall haven < 1hr, lots of local crags like Snow Canyon (basalt) or Chuckwalla (sandstone mini sport crag), SLC stuff 3hrs, Vegas stuff 2.5 hrs, Josh 5hrs?. Ellensburg is up there too with 11worth, Index, N Cascades, Vantage and all the alpine goodness within easy striking distance. Others to consider: Univ Tenn Chattanooga (you wouldn't believe how good the climbing is around there if I told you) Northern Arizona Univ - Flagstaff, AZ Ft. Lewis College - Durango, CO Appalachian State - Boone, NC Utah State - Logan, UT Univ Utah or Westminster College - Salt Lake City, UT Cal State San Diego Cal State Stanislaus SUNY New Paltz

Sounds like a bunch of to me. 18? No shit? Jon, you should get tweaked on some meth and about sixteen shots of espresso and go on a banning/post chopping rage spree for a day or two. After that the other mods will seem tame by comparison and people will stop by Sam's Club after work and pick up a case of STFU....for cheap. Hey somebody pick me up a case too, I could use it! c'mon guys more

"Bush was deemed the most admired man by 29 percent of the Americans surveyed, according to the CNN/USA Today/Gallup poll. He was followed by US Secretary of State Colin Powell and Pope John Paul II, each with four percent of the vote. Sitting US presidents regularly top the list of admired men, but the same does not always hold true for first ladies. Hillary Clinton was the leading lady for 16 percent of poll respondents, while First Lady Laura Bush came in third, with six percent of the vote -- just behind US talk-show diva Oprah Winfrey, with seven percent."

Well, there goes 80% of Spray. Spray forum descriptor on the index page: "Be warned this forum is not for the thin skinned."

From the article: “I believe that the reason I smoke and drink every day and my wife is overweight is because we watched TV every day for the last four years,” Dumouchel stated in a written complaint against the company, included in a Fond du Lac police report. “But the reason I am suing Charter is they did not let me make a decision as to what was best for myself and my family and (they have been) keeping cable (coming) into my home for four years after I asked them to turn it off.” and Timothy Dumouchel of West Bend wants $5,000 or three computers, and a lifetime supply of free Internet service from Charter Communications to settle what he says will be a small claims suit. They should put this jerkoff in prison for filing a frivolous lawsuit, or just beat him with some coaxial cable until he bleeds from the ears. Cable company stole the "off" button on your remote too huh fat-ass

Loprinzi's, dat's da one. I used to live at about 40th on Woodward

24 Hour at either Sandy across from the Hollywood Max Station, or the one downtown. The Bally's downtown near the Rock Bottom brewpub is a good choice too. If you can do without the chicks, there's a grungy pit of a gym in SE close to 39th and south of Hawthorne, closer to Division...I forget the name, it's someone's last name though like "Dugan's" or something. It's a no B.S. kinda place with pretty decent rates. Or you could just do the ClubSport, suburban hell, $1000 membership thingy and have good climbing facilitiy, extensive high-end regular gym, cafe', and hottie latte' sippin, SUV driving, makeup in the gym wearin', soccer MILFs everywhere.

Did anyone actually have their "chosen faith" or whatever church you "belong to" (appropriate term, that) come up as #1, or even #2 in your list? Although I don't engage in organized religion, if people ask my beliefs I tell them they fall closest to Zen, which is a branch of Mahayana, or Taoist..so it actually pegged it for me...or validated my assertion however you want to look at it.

1. Mahayana Buddhism (100%) 2. Liberal Quakers (97%) 3. Taoism (97%) 4. Unitarian Universalism (95%) 5. Christian Science (Church of Christ, Scientist) (88%) 6. Theravada Buddhism (86%) 7. Hinduism (85%) 8. Neo-Pagan (83%) 9. Mainline to Liberal Christian Protestants (83%) 10. New Thought (78%)
