<Tagline>Collecting orders for our fall 2012 order.</Tagline>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">As many of you know and have already ordered, we are getting sweet new uniforms and hoodies! We'd like to give you some details about prices and the products so that you can make a decision quickly.<div><br></div>
    <div>
    <strong>Completely redesigned sublimated jerseys.</strong> Full-sublimation means the entire jersey is a canvas for our design, and it's an awesome design, elephantastic and classy! This jersey and design will be used for many years to come so you can be confident in your investment. (<a href="http://www.savageultimate.com/images/content/SAVAGEcirrus_shortsleeve_size.jpg" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">jersey sizing chart</a>)<br>
    </div>
    <div>Price: $59.00</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>
    <strong>Standard black shorts with number.</strong> These are the wonderfully stretchy shorts that will match your jersey.</div>
    <div>Price: $24.00<br>
    </div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>
    <strong>Hoodies.</strong> Winter brings the cold; so, bring your high-quality, warm, fuzzy-hooded Five Ultimate hoodie and sport Booya pre-game, post-game, and everywhere you go when you're not playing. For $3 you can put your number on the back. (For sizing chart: go <a href="http://fiveultimate.com/team/products/#" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">here</a>, click Hoodies, click View Sizing Chart)<br>
    </div>
    <div>Price: $35 w/o number, $38 w/ number</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>We highly encourage you to order at least a jersey and preferably a pair of the black shorts also if you would like to play at tournaments with us. A uniformly dressed team looks formidable. The hoodies are optional.</div>

<Title>(Job) Numbers Don&#8217;t Lie</Title>

    <p>This morning, the much-anticipated September job numbers were released.  Unemployment fell from the August rate of 8.1 percent to 7.8 percent with 114,000 new jobs added. You can read the report straight from the horse’s (or should I say Bureau of Labor Statistics’) mouth <a href="http://www.bls.gov/news.release/empsit.nr0.htm" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">here</a> or check out coverage of the release in pretty much any major news outlet (but here’s the<a href="http://www.npr.org/blogs/thetwo-way/2012/10/05/162352854/unemployment-rate-drops-to-7-8-percent-114-000-jobs-added-to-payrolls" rel="nofollow external" class="bo"> link for NPR</a>!).</p>
    <p>Let’s play a game – put yourself in President Obama’s shoes: how would you frame these job numbers?</p>
    <p><a href="http://www.usatoday.com/story/money/business/2012/10/05/jobs-election-obama-romney-analysis/1613551/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">A lot</a> <a href="http://thecaucus.blogs.nytimes.com/2012/10/05/jobs-report-brings-unexpected-good-news-for-obama/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">of people</a> <a href="http://www.pbs.org/newshour/rundown/2012/10/new-jobs-numbers-could-help-obama-rebound-from-first-debate.html" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">are saying</a> that this is great news for the campaign – unemployment has fallen below 8 percent for the first time in almost 4 years!  This is proof of a rebounding economy!  This news is great for his campaign!</p>
    <p>But others are saying, sure, these numbers are an improvement, but they’re nothing to brag about.  The number of jobs added is relatively low, and many Americans are still facing tough economic times.  Instead, <a href="http://prospect.org/article/those-unemployment-numbers" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">one blogger suggests</a> that Obama needs to</p>
    <blockquote>
    <p>emphasize the mess that he inherited from the Republicans, the fact that every effort he has made to produce a stronger recovery has been blocked by the opposition, and the dismal 30-year trend of worsening inequality and rising insecurity.</p>
    </blockquote>
    <p>So what do you think?  What would you advise the President (or Governor Romney) to say?</p>
