Strange Unemployment Numbers

Employment statistics are often a mystery to me. This month the number of those employed actually decreased by 190,000 from last month, the employment/population ratio decreased, the number of unemployed increased by 205,000, and more people have left the labor force. Yet out of all this somehow 244,000 jobs were gained and the report is considered good news.
