Dabura Karriem, 60, of Bloomfield, N.J., reacts upon hearing there is a job available for exactly what she's looking for as a file clerk at a bank, while attending a career fair in Newark, N.J., Tuesday, Aug. 24, 2010. Karriem's unemployment benefits have expired after being laid off two years ago, the first time she's been unemployed in 38 years. The government on Friday Aug. 27, 2010 is about to confirm what many people have felt for some time: The economy barely has a pulse.
