22,000 jobs added in the month of August that was much less than the expectation of 75,000 guys the July number was revised I will get to revisions in a moment unemployment rate coming in as expected 4.3% so that would be higher than July's 4.2% again 22, 1000 jobs added an August let me get you the revisions because this is everybody is focused on. For June and July together, combined 21,000 jobs lower than previously reported. I'll categorize that now. So you see for June it was revised down by 27,000 getting you to negative 13,000 and the change for July up by 6,000, getting you to 79,000. Healthcare added 31,000 job guys.
