the good news about figures today is that long-term a youth unemployment is actually down by 10,000 this quarter. that is encouraging. long-term unemployment is still a problem. that is why the work program and getting the work program wright is so important. it has 200,000 people into work. he said on the 18th of january, over the next year, unemployment will get worse under his policies. perhaps he would like to withdraw that. >> mr. speaker, i am glad the prime minister recognizes that long-term unemployment is still a challenge. i want to ask about people who are doing the right thing and finding work. the chancellor decided to cut tax credits and benefits. >> the fact is this. everybody who is on tax credits will be affected by these changes because we have to get on top of the welfare bill. that is why we are restricted the increase of out of work benefits. it is also the reason why we are restricting in work benefits. what we have also done is increase the personal allowance. on this side of the house, we believe in cutting people's taxes. >> he is raising the taxes of people in w

youth. we utilize a lot of non-western ways of trying to have youth identified. we infuse political education so they can make a good choice. there are other programs like oasis. there are not many opportunities, not everybody could work -- all the work permits required. it also requires a social security number. alternative pathways are a good way to go, such as those internship opportunities. use these venues as an opportunity to have kids reflect and make positive choices by leading them to a path of self- determination. >> it is the mayor's youth employment program. the mayor has made a commitment to employ as many youth as possible. that is something that we hope will help. i want to thank all of our panelists today. give them a round of applause.

initiative that had as an explicit goal increased ridership and had as an explicit eligible program a low-income youth fare program and that's not coincidental. and that's as a request. >> sure. >> so, given that the guidelines of this grant program and weighing against the needs that we have, which i think i communicated to the board in a letter some of those needs on the maintenance side were, it seemed like we had a good opportunity to address both needs through this grant program. the lion's share of the grant funds will go towards lrv rehab, light rare vehicle rehab program -- light rail -- which is a critical need that we have. you the smaller portion of the funds will enable us to fund smaller, now a 16-month free muni for youth for low-income youth pilot that i believe is, you know, very consistent with the spirit of the unanimous support of the board for the program. * and it's a balancing of different needs. we have needs of the system. we have needs of the community. these grant dollars i think are well positioned to enable us to serve both. >> right. and just to focus the question, and ple

the euro made the union tangible to many europeans, even if some see it as a youth -- as a symbol of the eu's identity crisis. >> i would not claim that the european union is perfect in any way. but in my opinion, it is the best development in the world since the end of the second world war. >> students at the european school -- at this european school view it as a challenge for the younger generation to guard the european union. >> maybe when the students become politicians, they will behave differently than those who were only for their own national interests -- who work only for their own national interests. >> this is a prize for the younger generations. >> they agree that the debate surrounding the future of the eu helps bring the students together. but embracing a united europe requires courage. they hope they are up to the challenge, much like the founders of the eu. >> meanwhile, one of the four winners of the 2012 right livelihood awaraward, also knows the alternative nobel, called on the international community to stay committed to building a civil society in afghanistan af

deer hunting is a recurring theme-- the hunter often portrayed as a youthful adventurer accompanied on the trail by his dogs. the deer is vulnerable, even naive, unaware of the impending danger. deer were driven from the woods by dogs. instinctively entering the water to get off the scent, the deer became an easy target for the waiting hunters. the splendor of the adirondacks gives increased poignancy to the unfolding drama. homer's water-color techniques were perfectly suited to the deeper, graver moods he wished to evoke in his adirondacks pictures. as if without effort, layers of transparent color create illusions of an explicit reality. the artist seems drawn to the paradox of death as a source of intimacy with life. wherever he traveled, homer returned to maine-- to the prouts neck studio which was central to his life and work. the winters at prouts neck were extremely cold and desolate. although homer seemed to tolerate the bone-chilling weather-- often finding beauty in his bleak surroundings-- he began to make trips to nassau and florid during december and january. the first of

you have arrested a youth. instead of taking him to jail, you taken to his mother. the mother says, can you make him more afraid of you that of the gang members? the academy does not prepare you for that. i take that experience and i realized in the gang environment, most of these youths are coming from single- family households. in the area where the gang violence is most prevalent, great citizens of the community, 99% of those citizens are afraid. as a prosecutor, i take this experience and figure out how i want to enforce gang violence, especially in san francisco. i break it down into three categories. you have the individual who is not fully immersed in the gang lifestyle. he is just an associate comment just hanging out. -- associates, just hanging out. for that individual, we try to work with community-based programs. i've met with dcyf, the african- american steering committee, people haven't been in this violence and i say to them, what can -- people have been in this violence, and i say to them, what can we do to make sure if this individual does not go to
