See the end of the article you posted----this includes the total continuing (continuing) to receive unemployment. As I understand that after so many months, many people are not eligible for unemployment and cannot refile. It is this latter figure that I do not see in the article------those who no longer qualify for unemployment pay.

"The number of people continuing to file unemployment claims for a second week or more fell to 4,182,000 during the week ended Nov. 13, the most recent data available. That's down a whopping 142,000 from a revised 4,324,000 the week before, and the first time in two years that the number has slipped below the 4.2 million mark.

The report comes a day after Federal Reserve officials offered little hope for the job market going forward. The central bank said the unemployment rate will likely remain high between 8.9% to 9.1% in 2011"
