Being black myself, if they were wearing school colors and not making fun of black people it isn't bad. That said they should have worn the other school color to balance it out.
[QUOTE="Ultimas_Blade"]She birthed 7, and a few days later I still have 7 healthy rat babies. ^_^ They're precious.Female Rats eat their young if there won't be enough food to nourish the litter. A famine may be in order :(

*ahem* Famine. You're still feeding her I take it? There's the reason why you started with 7 and still have 7. She realizes can take care of them. If you have cats well, that would be a way of naturally disposing of the extras. God that sounds inhumane. Anyhow, just take them to the woods and release them. They'll have a good coat of dirt that will help them blend in soon enough.
If you keep them Isay keep the dude rats separate from the chick rats. Unless you want to go through this again.
Well I don't care about rats. I find them disgusting and so filthy so yea, I'm glad I'm not a rat.[QUOTE="ExoticAnimal"][QUOTE="Nibroc420"] What a terrible attitude. "It's not me, so i dont care"tepni
They're quite sweet. They keep to themselves... they're smart. My rats are cute, too. Just look. Looky!
Not really into pets, but your rat does look friendly at least.

[QUOTE="Ultimas_Blade"][QUOTE="Mafiree"] And that is different how? If x amount of jobs will change the unemployment rate by y%, showing graphs of either job creation or the unemployment rate are the same thing.Mafiree
That's expressly wrong because umemployment is gauged by the # of applications for unemployment benefits. Jobs created is based on employer hiring (tracked by things like the I-9 Form). Again, you're just wrong on that logic.
Job Creation and fluctuations in the size of the labor source are the determinants of the unemployment rate.......Wrong. It is taken from those who are actively seeking work. That number does not include ALL unemployed individuals (and I'm not talking about the youth, disabled, elderly, etc. Talking able-bodied adults)

Persons are classified as unemployed if they do not have a job, have actively looked for work in the prior 4 weeks, and are currently available for work.Bureau-of-Labor-Statistics
EDIT: And just to cover my bases for those who are trying to thread my posts, to receive unemployment benefits in most if not all states you must show that you are either engaged in seeking new employment or that you are currently training or studying for a certification or degree.
While the Presidential options aren't appealing in the least, the real issue is congress. We keep blaming the president, and it's congress that keeps cockblocking his efforts.

Thank you! We wouldn't be looking at this double dip right now if we weren't laying off so many Federal, State, and localemployees. These are people who could be paying taxes and engaging in commerce! Business isn't going to hire, they don't NEED to as long as the people who would have been consumers keep falling into poverty! They have less and less customers to serveand those customershave more and more money to spend as it isn't being taxed high enough.
[QUOTE="Ultimas_Blade"][QUOTE="Nibroc420"] 1.)Who said they were conservative? 2.)What does it have to do with them not being able to understand your charts? Seems you're just bashing people left and right because they don't agree with you....lNibroc420
Are you familiar with these posters? That answers your first question. The fact that Mafiree said "Unemployment is a lagged indicator" when no data on unemployment was given.
You're just talking out the side of your neck on that Nibroc. If they had valid arguments they would have A) Showed that the data was misrepresented or B) Not made statements that weren't even based on the information shown.
1.) You've chosen to call people names, and attempt to discredit people instead of supporting your initial claim. 2.) You're saying that Job creation numbers, and unemployment numbers are completely unrelated. Simply posting a graph, and insulting people who question the validity of the statistics isn't the best way to create discussion.Whatever Nibroc. I called them names? Whoop-de-do. If it was egregious I'm sure the mods would be bearing down on me (they are usually swift about it).
Anyways, they were making Ad Hominem arguments. They didn't say "Data A was untrue because of Data B", they said that "Data A was untrue because of its source". No real examination of the evidence.
Of course the two aren't completely unrelated, but when talking about the statistics that are given on a daily basis, the raw number of Jobs created does not affect the Unemployment Rate directly because the persons getting hired weren't necessarily applying for benefits or had exhausted benefits.
