Today, this engine has stalled. The decade of the 2000s lost one million American jobs, whereas the previous three decades averaged approximately 20 million new jobs per decade. If the next decade, the 2010s, generates only marginal jobs growth, the US economy could collapse under the weight of US debt and obligations. The US has several hundred trillions of dollars worth of debt, which it will not be able to pay if its workforce does not grow. The Jobenomics team is launching a national 20 by 20 campaign to create 20 million new US private sector jobs by 2020.  20 by 20 includes initiatives for government, large business, small and self-employed businesses, foreign investment in US businesses, and major emerging technology initiatives. Through Jobenomics, Americans will have common cause and resources to create jobs in order to build a more prosperous future.

A "youth-recovery" plan that's as fast as it is effective, The High School Reunion Diet is a pure foods program designed to have you looking slimmer, healthier, and younger in just thirty days. When people come in to see acclaimed dermatologist and internist Dr. David Colbert in the hope of looking younger, he often sends them home with a diet. Yes, there are many modern dermatology treatments that improve your skin and take years off your appearance, but the doctor knows nothing works better (or faster) than the right foods. Whether you want to lose a few pounds or a few years, The High School Reunion Diet is for you. Dr. Colbert begins with a quick "reeducation" on how certain foods fuel your body. You'll learn why sugar-saturated processed foods slow you down and make you appear old, and how you can combat the effects of age with the health and beauty secrets of smart carbs, A+ fats, intelligent fiber, and star proteins. Then it's time to start eating. Here's how the diet works: You replace over-sugared, nutritionally empty packaged foods and sweetened drinks with "True Food" -- brilliant-colored vegetables, whole fruits, nutritious nuts, lean meat, and a variety of other flavorful items that are easily accessible, pure, and unprocessed. You cook with great fats like olive oil, and use antioxidant-rich spices that can both beautify skin and protect health. Soon the aging effects of sugar will begin to reverse, just as the benefits of whole nutrients begin to multiply. Dull skin, hair, and eyes will brighten. In thirty days, you'll experience the entire range of benefits -- from increased energy and heightened mental acuity to weight loss -- that will have you on the road to lifelong good habits and health. Featuring a variety of options for everyday meals, The High School Reunion Diet also includes sample recipes destined to become household staples, rang-ing from frittatas and smoothies to fresh salads and sides, delicious fish and even sirloin entrees, as well as a long list of tasty snacks. Having already earned the trust of New York and Hollywood's media, fashion, and film elite, Dr. Colbert brings to your kitchen table his extensive knowledge of attaining -- and sustaining -- health, beauty, and youth.

Smart, sneaky, and sustainable cheating tips from one of New York's top nutritionists. Award-winning nutritionist, Glamour magazine columnist and stylish New York City chick, Marissa Lippert understands how hard it is to stick to a plan and eat a healthy diet when you're a girl-on-the go. And she knows that if you aren't allowed to cheat, you won't want to stick to any type of plan. Here, finally, is the foolproof program for eating, cheating, and losing weight permanently. You heard it from your mother many times, "Cheaters never win." And she was right. But in this case, cheaters always win, because (winning means losing), especially if they listen to hot New York City nutritionist Marissa Lippert. Let her teach you the art of cheating and you'll be the biggest loser ever-up to twenty pounds in eight weeks. And that's just the beginning of the good news. You'll be the leanest, fittest, healthiest and happiest you've ever been on a diet because Lippert believes that life without guilty pleasures-including drinks (yes, alcohol) and desserts-just isn't worth living. There are two kinds of cheats: the ones you do on purpose and, more frequently, the ones that catch you off guard. Whether you've binged on sweets, fatty foods or booze, Marissa has the tools to help you spring into action and maximize cheating momentum. You'll feel better and healthier if you follow her plan and you won't ruin the progress you'll make on The Cheater's Diet. Getting a grip on your schedule is the first step to cheating-planning trips to the gym, stocking up on staples at the grocery store, deciding when to cook, and knowing when and how you'll likely cheat during the week. Will it be at your office happy hour on Wednesday or an indulgent dinner date on Thursday? Girl's night out on Saturday? Take your best shot-if the dinner date is at an incredible restaurant you've been dying to try, play smart with lighter meals earlier in the week and hold out for the good stuff. Lippert shows readers, in each of the eight weeks, how to shop, how to cook and how to find the best of everything within your budget. The upshot is that eating the most delicious food whether you're cheating or not, whether you're eating in or out, is the best way to stay satisfied and control your portions. You'll want to save the cheats for something that's worth it-not junk food from the snack machine, but the best red velvet cupcake you've ever had. Not house wine, but the best Pinot Noir you'll ever taste. The better the quality the more you'll savor it, and the less you'll eat--and that's true of healthy food too. Buy a great bottle of balsamic vinegar and olive oil and suddenly salads won't be a punishment for a night of cheating. They'll feel like your naughty days. Eight weeks, up to twenty pounds, and enjoying every minute of it. How can you beat that?

Take your Modern20 campaign where it's never been with Supers20! This major expansion of the Modern20 rules adds a completely new power system to Modern20, allowing you to design characters from any universe, any genre, any era of comics action. Supers20 is designed, like the Modern20 rules it builds on to speed up character creation for players and the game master alike. This supers system has no power points, with powers being entirely feat based, allowing characters to be generated in a fraction of the time they would require in other systems. The book also features a rich selection of campaign models, along with generic NPCs who have just enough unspent feats and skills unspent for the game master to customize a fully featured supervillain in minutes. Your players will never guess you're using an NPC created on the fly and if they do, they'll be having too much fun to care. Whether your brand of comics adventuring is the disturbed loner meting out justice as he sees fit on the streets, or the last scion of a doomed world fighting cosmic threats in the deeps of space, Supers20 has what you need!

An investigation into the meaning and value of one art item, from a provocateur of the art and music worlds Celebrated musician and artist Bill Drummond turns his attention to the world of modern art. Several years ago he bought a photograph by the Turner Prize–winning artist Richard Long for $20, 000. After owning it for some time, he decided to cut it up into 20, 000 individual pieces, and then sell them off at a dollar a piece. This book tells the whole story of Drummond’s relationship with modern art, and in particular how this process changed it, in a typically fascinating and discursive way. In his numerous musical incarnations, Drummond has combined global success with a fiercely independent slant. As an artist, his work, over the past 30 years, has examined the cultural landscape through a diverse array of forms.

Log 20: Curating Architecture (Fall 2010) Having followed the expanding use of the term curating over the recent years, its traditions within architecture can no longer go unexamined. Log 20, published on the occasion of the 12th Venice Architecture Biennale, considers curating architecture both within its contemporary guises and historical lineage. Practitioners from New York to Paris, Moscow to Tokyo propose curating as advocacy, as atmosphere, and as architecture itself, assembling in this special thematic issue what is arguably the first compendium of contemporary practices on this emerging discourse. Eve Blau encounters the instrumental transparencies of SANAA, Kurt W. Forster argues for an architecture of display, Sylvia Lavin redefines architectural work, Andrea Phillips reveals the politics of pavilions, and Mirko Zardini expands on the collection of ideas in Montreal. With additional contributions by Barry Bergdoll, Jean-Louis Cohen, Cynthia Davidson, Marco De Michelis, Tina Di Carlo, Manfredo di Robilant, Ole W. Fischer, Jeffrey Kipnis, Paula Lee, Hans Ulrich Obrist, Kayoko Ota, Alex Schweder, Felicity D. Scott, Robert A.M. Stern, Lea-Catherine Szacka, Henry Urbach, Philip Ursprung, and Eyal Weizman.
