"Bye bye unemployment benefits" -
More than 200,000 long-term jobless Americans will lose their unemployment checks this week, when eight states roll off the federal extended benefits program.
Nearly half of them live in California, and the rest reside in Florida, Illinois, North Carolina, Colorado, Connecticut, Pennsylvania and Texas.
The federal extended benefits program has provided the jobless with up to 20 weeks of unemployment checks after they’ve run through their state and their federal emergency benefits, which together last up to 79 weeks.
But the extended benefits program is expiring throughout the country as the economy improves. To be eligible for these benefits, a state must show that its unemployment rate is at least 10% higher than it was in at least one of the past three years.
State unemployment rates have been falling as the jobless find new positions or exit the workforce. For instance, Nevada has the highest state unemployment rate at 12%, but it’s still below the 14% it logged in October 2010.

Post-Apocalyptic World of the Day: Lucie & Simon, a self-taught artistic duo out of France, have traveled the world photographing major metropolitan areas — such as Times Square and the Louvre — without signs of life. Their technique involves using a neutral density filter that allows for extra-long exposures, which removes moving objects like people and cars.
Don’t miss the rest of their series, Silent World, or the short film that pairs their images with music.

We must stop posting poignant quotes, then behave or support others’ behaviour that is highly contrary to the sentiment.
We act.
