Wait; what does that 'change' represent? Is that a revision, or are they trying to say that 250k people just up and ...what?

Why even bother with these numbers? Proven again and again to be whatever the people issuing them want them to be...boring! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This is news: >>More Than $100 Million in Attack Ads Fails to Move Voters<< I believe it; ads are full of the same **** we've been dished up for decades. I've seen them all and they don't change my opinion one bit. Romney: Bulk of his ads > Obama sucks, look how awful he is; vote for me. Minority of his ads > I'll cut spending and shrink government...yeah, right. Obama: Bulk of his ads > This is what I've done, and this is where I want to go. Minority of his ads > Recaps Romney's "career"; he's the problem, not the solution. As I've said, both are lying sacks; but Obama is a much better liar and way cooler. Romney is annoyingly white...even to this cracker...I just can't take him and he's a horrible liar...there's just nothing smooth about him. Think America is going to put a Mormon in the White House...LOL...NO WAY!...yeah, it will come to that...better a Black Leftist Christian than the Mormon moron...why do you think the wacky Right keeps calling Obama a Muslim...(for them) that's the only thing worse than Mormon... http://finance.yahoo.com/news/more-100-m....

The "Regular State" change is the number of new claimants (as an actual count, no "adjustments") for that program. "Regular State" is the 26 week "Standard" unemployment.
That's not long-term roll-down, it's new job losses.

A lot of that spike may be due to cuts in government services. All city and county departments are being cut here.

Yuck. Relatively speaking, the actual initial claims numbers aren't that terrible but that is quite the spike in the state numbers. I do remember a bigger jump from a release sometime back in January but that was around the time that claims run the highest.

Is there some historical table showing week-by-week stats on this number that jumped from 3.105 million to 3.353 million during the July 4th week? I'm guessing that a lot of recently unemployed people who would typically start a new job in a week simply weren't started during the July 4th week where July 4th landed on Wednesday. Another thing is that a lot of enterprises have projects that end June 30th due to this being a popular date for ending the fiscal year and thus its easy to just roll off the contractors/temps who aren't needed the next fiscal year, especially if the economy is looking weak and you want to put plans on hold while you re-examine your budgets for belt-tightening.

Degaston, I don't know if there's a historical table but you can access archived releases here. Around the middle of the page is a menu where you can choose what report you want to view from which year: http://www.ows.doleta.gov/unemploy/claim....Another thing I notice is the decline in people receiving extended benefits YOY and the number of states offering extended benefits fell from I believe over thirty in January to four in this last report.
