Unemployment data from that page:
Pennsylvania ...................| 4.6 | 7.0 | 2.4
The first number (4.6) is January 2008 unemployment; the second (7.0) is from Jan 2009, and the 2.4 percent is the calculated increase, which a table at the bottom of the page tells us translates into 72,000 lost jobs in that one year period.
