Heh that's sweet, but my TL probably has more horsepower than that dinky thing

S-Type tuning is pretty awesome

Depends on your year. For most, it's actually just a larger engine then the non-Type-S. The power ratio from the Honda V6s is quite poor in comparison to their I4 counterparts. Nissan has them beat in that department for once.
Your TL likely makes about 75% more HP then that yello Civic, but out of an engine with 2.2 times the displacement.

'03 with 260 horses, and it might be a heavy bitch but she drives so nicely.

Well, I just paid my $2000 credit card bill to the wrong account. Now I am 'out' $4000 as I still had to pay my bill until I get it sorted out =/

Done and done, money situation fixed. Sent it to mine by mistake and thankfully they were able to send it all back.

My back has been killing me for like a week now. I didn't do anything to injure it that I can think of though. I did switch to zyrtec a few days before and sore throat and dry mouth are side effects (I just looked them up) so I am switching back to claritin in the hopes that maybe that is it? I'm texting my sister in law who is a pharmacist about it now.

Update: most of the shit I've been going through is probably linked to the Zyrtec with a slight chance the back pain is too. So I'm definitely switching back. Clinical trials had some muscle ache and one reported back ache. Zyrtec is considered very safe but has more central nervous system side effects than Claritan.

claritin isn't strong enought for me. I used to have hay fever really bad when I was younger but not so much anymore. But my allergies occasionally flare up. Zyrtec knocks them right out.

I switched to Zyrtec because I heard it was stronger but shit's been weird for me lately. I don't think I've ever had a panic attack before the other weekend  :-\

I'm just hoping the back pain is linked so it will go away in a bit, It seriously hurts like freaking crazy.

What the hell? 45% unemployment rate? That can't be right

[/quote]

Unemployed for 27 weeks or longer. As in the percentage of those unemployed that have been that way for at least half a year.

[PyroZombie]

wow, really?

[Surf314]

wow, really?

Yea and if you look at the graph the big increases generally come after the recession as the economy takes time to replace the jobs. Add to this the fact that unemployment is calculated on people actively seeking and in this recession many people had given up and were no longer counted but are now starting to look again and you will probably start seeing even more depressing numbers.

What they've always needed is a discouraged worker index that you can meld with unemployment to get a true sense of the number of people out there.

Honestly I think it's just a matter of practicality. It is much easier to collect data on numbers of applicants than it is to collect data on people that would like a job. Or at least it's a bit more concrete, you can always do phone surveys and extrapolate it out but unemployment is usually extremely regional.

It's been a year since I finished my BA. I've been pushing papers as a temp for 9 months now. With the exception of the temp job, I have yet to get another interview for a job. Shitload of applications, 3 replies, all "No." I think that makes me underemployed. Fuck
