The Very Best Outside of the Box Economic Policy Ideas from the Site That Will Pay $1 Million for Yours

Is Your Original Economic Policy Idea Worth $1 million? No? How about $500? Author Al Lewis is offering a $1 million reward for the first idea published on his website, www.thinkOOB.com, to get adopted into national policy, and $500 for any idea used in the next edition of "OOBonomics."
Think your "Outside Of the Box" economic policy contribution can make the grade? Decide for yourself as you enjoy a merry romp through 12 of the best economic policy ideas you've ever read, ideas that will leave you thinking, laughing, and, most importantly, wondering: "Why the hell aren't we already doing this stuff?"
And then you can post your own idea. Maybe it will make you rich, maybe it will get you published, or maybe it will just give Mr. Lewis a good laugh. But, hey, might as well give it a try. In the immortal words of the great philosopher Wayne Gretzky, you miss 100% of the shots you don't take.

An Autobiography 

The True Joy of Living

Vincent Bugliosi

Excellent thoughtful writer addressing a major question of existence #god #christian #christianity #judaism #islam #existence #religion #jesus #christ 

The God Question

Vincent Bugliosi, whom many view as the nation's foremost prosecutor, has successfully taken on, in court or on the pages of his books, the most notorious murderers of the last half century--Charles Manson, O.J. Simpson, and Lee Harvey Oswald.
 
Now, in the most controversial book of his celebrated career, he turns his incomparable prosecutorial eye on the greatest target of all: God. In making his case for agnosticism, Bugliosi has very arguably written the most powerful indictment ever of God, organized religion, theism, and atheism. Theists will be left reeling by the commanding nature of Bugliosi's extraordinary arguments against them. And, with his trademark incisive logic and devastating wit, he exposes the intellectualpoverty of atheism and skewers its leading popularizers--Christopher Hitchens, Sam Harris, and Richard Dawkins.
 
Joining a 2,000-year-old conversation which no one has contributed anything significant to for years, Bugliosi, in addition to destroying the all-important Christian argument of intelligent design, remarkably--yes, scarily--shakes the very foundations of Christianity by establishing that Jesus was not born of a virgin, and hence was not the son of God, that scripture in reality supports the notion of no free will, and that the immortality of the soul was a pure invention of Platothat Judaism and Christianity were forced to embrace because without it there is no life after death.
 
Destined to be an all-time classic, Bugliosi'sDivinity of Doubtsets a new course amid the explosion of bestselling books on atheism and theism--the middle path of agnosticism. In recognizing the limits of what we know, Bugliosi demonstrates that agnosticism is
 he most intelligent and responsible position to take on the eternal question of God's existence.

How to Hire the Right Candidate for the Job

A priceless resource for seasoned as well as first-time executives, this is the playbook that explains how to recruit better people and build stronger, more effective teams.

Executives are highly motivated to get better at hiring because they know the ability to consistently identify and recruit the right people is critical to the success of their businesses--and their personal advancement. But hiring people isn't taught in business schools or executive development programs. This book provides the sorely needed and essential practical instruction that executives are not receiving elsewhere, supplying a step-by-step guide for those who want to excel at attracting and identifying talent.

Covering everything from the basics of defining a job to the intricacies of managing internal politics, this no-nonsense book provides a clear roadmap through the often-daunting and pitfall-laden recruiting process. In addition to explaining how to get it right, the book provides the information and guidance readers need to identify and fix the most common problems that doom hiring efforts to failure. Debunking the idea that "some people are just great recruiters and some aren't," the author clearly identifies the steps that anyone can take in order to master the art--and science--of recruiting.

 * Provides a step-by-step guide to recruiting better people, right away
 * Presents clear, practical, and immediately actionable advice instead of wasting the reader's time with text dedicated to explaining theory in extensive detail
 * Reviews the most common recruiting mistakes and describes ways to avoid or correct these errors
 * Enables readers to immediately improve their hiring effectiveness and over time to develop the intuitive feel for recruiting that makes them expert recruiters
 * Supplies the straightforward advice executives need to build great teams that will deliver superior revenues and profits for their businesses--an outcome that will accelerate their own careers

Seth Godin

One of todays creative marketing thought leaders and writers presents an insightful overview of business and marketing #marketing #business #creative #creativity #jobs #employment #work

Are You Indispensable?

This life-changing manifesto shows how you have the potential to make a huge difference wherever you are. Few authors have had the kind of lasting impact and global reach that Seth Godin has had. In a series of now-classic books that have been translated into 36 languages and reached millions of readers around the world, he has taught generations of readers how to make remarkable products and spread powerful ideas. In Linchpin, he turns his attention to the individual, and explains how anyone can make a significant impact within their organization. There used to be two teams in every workplace: management and labor. Now there's a third team, the linchpins. These people figure out what to do when there's no rule book. They delight and challenge their customers and peers. They love their work, pour their best selves into it, and turn each day into a kind of art. Have you ever found a shortcut that others missed? Seen a new way to resolve a conflict? Made a connection with someone others couldn't reach? Even once? Then you have what it takes to become indispensable, by overcoming the resistance that holds people back. Linchpin will show you how to join the likes of... · Keith Johnson, who scours flea markets across the country to fill Anthropologie stores with unique pieces. · Jason Zimdars, a graphic designer who got his dream job at 37signals without a résumé. · David, who works at Dean and Deluca coffee shop in New York. He sees every customer interaction as a chance to give a gift and is cherished in return. As Godin writes, "Every day I meet people who have so much to give but have been bullied enough or frightened enough to hold it back. It's time to stop complying with the system and draw your own map. You have brilliance in you, your contribution is essential, and the art you create is precious. Only you can do it, and you must."

The First Jazz Critic Named Jazz Master by the National Endowment for the Arts

Writing in a passionate and streetwise style all his own, Nat Hentoff transports us into the diverse worlds of musicians that hold one thing in common: America. In over sixty pieces Hentoff has assembled a mosaic that creates a vivid picture of the music scene as it leaps into the twenty-first century. From sweeping surveys of the roots of American music to vivid assessments of individual performers (including John Coltrane, Billie Holiday, Joe Williams, Doc Pomus, Duke Ellington, Willie Nelson, and many more) Hentoff demonstrates once again why he is lauded as "a critic par excellence" (Publishers Weekly). American Music Is compiles the best of his essays into a potent reader, collecting his most illuminating writing on a broad range of topics. For those who love jazz, blues, country, gospel, or folk, American Music Is provides eloquent and powerful insights. For those who love all of them, it is required reading.
