bette davis once said that old age is not for sissies. she is right about so many things, and she was right about that. when you look at the status of family violence in san francisco, it is startling. 18,000 people who feel victimized enough to call someone. that is the city agencies, aps hot line, and that is startling. but the most startling part of that is the part that has to do with elder abuse. and why is that? well, if we compare child abuse and elder abuse, taking domestic violence off the table for a moment, 14% of san francisco is comprised of children. 14% is comprised of people over the age of 65. cal protective services receivers -- adult protective services received 5758 cases. basically, pretty cool. the child abuse police unit has 10 officers. there is no elder abuse police unit. there are elder abuse specialists assigned to domestic violence units and to the financial crimes unit, and it is about 2.5 fte's. there are over 500 child protective workers in san francisco. 45 adult protective -- protective workers in san fran

my daughter is around that age. i hear from people beyond the age of 18 and there are not a plethora of programs of summer employment for young people who have not finished college, who are still in school, who are trying to live on their round or with friends, or are still with family, and being a contributor. i hope this program can figure out how to nuance itself, after you do the evaluation and see how it runs, on how to incorporate young people who you may not know are undocumented. they may be your friends, but that is something in your background that exists. you may know many folks. if that goes on, and i will be certain that many of you will have a way to reach me -- i am curious. have you inc. a way to include formerly incarcerated young people so that they can anticipate and five a pathway to take care of themselves in san francisco? i hear from folks going through this transitional age that san francisco is not a place to make a home because it is too difficult to live here. it is too difficult for someb

we organize our findings in a different age categories, so we look at ages 0 to 5, and we look at the kindergarten to eighth grade age population, and in high school and populationyouth -- high school and older youth. i will briefly go through findings and leave time for questions. see ratified, the big funding from both the administrative data as well as community input is barely care and education or child care programs continue to be a big need. preschool programs and parents looking for support to help them be able to prepare their students for kindergarten once they enter. issues of access, affordability, and quality continued to be concerned in terms of early care and education. looking at the next age population, a kindergarten to eighth grade or ages six to 13, what we heard from the community in concessions was after-school programs continue to be a need, although our administrative data shows we're doing a good job meeting that need, but there seems to be a big gap in terms of summer programming for the population, and that was something we heard time and time again through

francis collins on why these children age so rapidly is revealing the genetic root of why aging happenst all. children like zach are born with an excess of the cell- destroying protein called progerin. dr. collins learned we all have small amounts of progerin and progerin has an on switch. >> we've learned what the signal is that turns that on in you and me. we didn't know that before. >> reporter: that signal begins on the very tip ends of our chromosomes called telomeres. as our cells divides overtime the telomeres get shorter. that process tells the body to produce progerin. progerin in turn causes our cells to age. zach and 44 other progeria patients are in a clinical trial to see if an anti-cancer drug that blocks progerin can reverse their symptoms. if this drug can help impede the aging process in these children, what does that say for the rest of us? >> well, people will wonder if it works in dramatic accelerated aging, would it also work in the normal process? >> reporter: dr. collins believes anti-aging therapies will be possible one day, but not with the drugs that zach is ta

that is the most amazing thing i have heard from in ages. we just got a report that children and families are abandoning this city left and right. now we take children who have no families to take care of them, to help and support them as they grow into adulthood and if they're going to be supported, it's up to our institutions to do it and now we tell them go out on the street -- or whatever you go, let somebody else take care of it. i know it's politically incorrect to talk about racism these days. people always want to claim that you're playing the race card but i'm old enough to know that race ain't a game. but i will say that my daddy taught me a long time ago that if it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck, looks like a duck. brothers and sisters, you got yourself a duck. thank you. president chiu: next speaker. >> good evening president chiu, sfrmplets i'm andy with the san francisco bicycle coalition and we support this project. we applaud the intensification of uses that this project brings. desirable uses and that is well-supporte

your age? yes, it can be a challenge for a barrier because if you are not of age, you are not able to vote, so you do not all the time have a voice in what goes on in your community. >> how about -- something related to what you're saying is folks do not consider -- because of your age do not want to hear that voice, and maybe the challenge is also folks do not want to hear a young person, right? how about changing the decision making process, would you say? that is one of the challenges, the way decisions are made. >> we do not have that actual power sometimes. >> definitely. that is a great one. any others? yes? >> [inaudible] people being resistant to change in the neighborhoods or society in general. and also [inaudible] >> [inaudible] living situation. for example, if there is homeless youth, that is a big challenge for some in the community. >> [inaudible]

there is, you know, contentment to be had at that age.st got to take adjustments. >> reporter: and what's ahead did look pretty good, says psychologist margie lockman. >> you don't have to assume that you are stuck and that it's just all downhill from here. in many ways we can say that those who are in the middle really they're in the driver's seat. i don't necessarily mean in a sports car. >> reporter: just remember whatever you do, it always helps to sprinkle in a little bit of humor. >> mid life doesn't own the crisis. i was having a crisis in my 20s. it's only a mid-life crisis because it's mid life. i had a 20s crisis, a 30s crisis. >> there you go. >> hey, larry. listen. >> osgood: ahead, men in a muddle. this portion of sunday morning is sponsored by... er? maybe it's because toyota offers 25 vehicle choices highway rated 30 mpg or better. with so many gas-saving options, it's no surprise we're the #1 choice among consumers. and right now, get 0% apr financing on a new 2011 camry. plus, every new toyota comes with toyota care, a co

every year 150 to 2000 young people age out of foster care. these are victims of abuse, neglect, parental absence. they're taking them to state-funded care where we have collectively decided that we are going to welcome their parent. unfortunately their luck doesn't get much better with us. they typically transition through multiple placements and face the ultimate punishment when they're kicked out of foster care at 18. first place has ensured that they become productive tax paying integrated members of housing by providing emotional support and guidance that are grounded in the principles of accountability and consequences. our program has achieved incredible outcomes. while 65% of foster youth in california will face imminent homelessness. 80% maintain permanent housing. 77 of our young people complete high school and while young mothers are twice as likely to lose their children to the foster care system, 100% of our parents retain custody of their kids, breaking the heartbreaking interrational cycle of foster care dependence. and yes, the

your retirement age is not based on the age. strom thurmond was 100 years old. it is based on years of service. caller: that is the way it is for all of us. their age is they can begin retiring at 55. i cannot do that. we're talking about retirement. i am 52 so i will get caught up in this age 55 and younger. i also don't have a pension plan. i never really going to retire. i am just going to reach an age where i am no longer employable by employer where i can earn a decent salary. i will be let go for that reason. i am going to have to probably work two part-time jobs until i am 70 years old or older for as long as i can walk. i will not be able to afford anything. i will work and i want have the luxury of being bored. i will have to work to live, thank you. host: we are not here to defend members of congress. they do -- they get their fair share of criticism. the law was changed in terms of pension. it is based on their number of years of service and that change in the 1980's and 1990's. is based on their years of service in congress or as a federal employee.

should congress raise the retirement age to raise the retirement age or raise the retirement age let's consider the options let's raise the age of raising the retirement age to sixty nine at the same point the koch brothers are putting huge amounts of money into campaign contributions very modest increases in the retirement age mostly due to the retirement age so it is still used to be. a john so security watch to go up so you have an echo chamber with thoughts. repeating a lot of this information. and sure enough the more money they throw in the more their arguments against social security enter the mainstream debate as we speak right now lawmakers are negotiating changes to social security buy off is working it's all part of a plan to discourage is strike government in general i guess to be worth a couple billion dollars and don't care about anyone else but yourself. why should you give a deal also says here and that's very very. one hundred twenty five years after corporations transformed into people the march to end corporate personhood is underway in boulder colorado they say art

even schizophrenia at that age, some signs. those signs also... we also have just recently learned that there are other signs that start to appear to give us a little insight around 2 to 3 years earlier, so we're really starting to reach in to those younger populations. we also need to balance out the brain disease part of mental health-mental illness, rather-and see what can we do about that, like, and learn from the substance abuse world of their issues with looking at how the brain interacts with our enzymes, which interacts with the disease itself. as with most chronic illnesses, even though we have come so far with addictions and in mental illness we still are not at the same level of knowledge and expertise that we are with learning about diabetes and cancer and heart disease and even alzheimer's disease. so we have come a long way, but we have a lot longer to go to be able to get this to a level where all physicians, like dr. greene, who understands the behavioral health issues and understands addictions. so it becomes j

the revolution itself and that generation a few years later, the age of jackson was called the age of the common man and a reform movement for every social and economic ills that you could think of. a few years later the great reform was anti slavery and then the civil rights amendments. you get a period of drought in the gilded age but that gives away to populism in the progressive movement of to the 1920s. conservative 20s gives way to the new deal. truman and kennedy/johnson. i used to think that maybe this was a progressive country that periodically got tired of reform and settled into a conservative period but basically a progressive country. these 40 years are beginning to convince me we are essentially a very conservative country with only occasional bursts of progressive activity. i would like to see -- i am not all that optimistic. >> you open your presentation with a remark or a quotation decrying in difference and yet i think some would say franklin roosevelt as the war progressed was seemingly indifferent to the fate of the jewish people under the nazis. could you comment

she said age, a child's age is more than a chronological fact. that we know for a fact that children don't have mature judgement, that they don't possess a complete understanding of the world around them. so age has to be a factor in determining whether this child believes he or she is free to leave and is in custody. >> suarez: who joined justice sotomayor to make that vote a majority. >> justice stephen breyer, justice ruth bader ginsburg, justice anthony kenny and justice elena kagan. >> so kennedy was the key point. >> he was the swing vote and it is interesting to note that he has always in the criminal context, particularly the death penalty, he has had a special solicitude for the problems of youth juveniles in the criminal justice system. >> suarez: what did the dissint ares have to say and who was their leader. >> justice alice-- alito was the main dissent joined by anthony scalia and clarence thomas. he said miranda was a bright line rule for police, something that was easy to apply. and when you looked at whether someone was in custody

the options let's raise the age of raising the retirement age to sixty nine at the same time the koch brothers are putting huge amounts of money into the campaign contributions very modest increases in the retirement age grocer get into retirement age so this stuff has to be. age and so security will have to go up so you'll have an echo chamber with thoughts. repeating a lot of this information. and sure enough the more money throw in the more their arguments against social security enter the mainstream debate as we speak right now lawmakers are negotiating changes to social security buy off is working it's all part of a plan to describe the strike government in general we're going to be worth a couple billion dollars and don't care about anyone else but yourself. you can tell us oh sister and that's very very. one hundred twenty five years after corporations transformed into people the march to end corporate personhood is underway in boulder colorado they say art imitates reality and with the new transformers three movie set to hit theaters next month that same holds true. i'm not ta

>> all parties supported the equalization of the pension age between men and women. that needed to happen. it also needs to happen that we raise mention ages to make sure our pension system is affordable and the point i would make is because we've done that, we've been able to relink the pension back to earnings and as a result pensioners are 15,000 pounds better off on their retirement than they would have been under labour. that is a good deal and the right thing to do. if the party opposite wants to be serious about pension reform and dealing with the deficit, they should back these changes. >> allen reed. >> mr. speaker, i agree with the government's timetable for increasing the men's state pension age to 66 because it happens gradually. however, i would ask the prime minister to think again about women's state pension age. applying a timetable has women's planned state pension age going up far too quickly and leaves women of my age -- i was born in 1954 without enough time to plan for what could be two years extra work. will the government please look at this ag

the equalization of the pension age and the raising of the pension age but it's enabling us to link it with earnings thus meaning that people will be 15,000 pounds better off than they were under labour's plans. >> thank you, mr. speaker. given 1200 job losses and further job losses in the private and public sector in north lincoln, will the prime minister meet with the task force chair and the local mp's so that he can understand how, government can help the local economy face these demands positively and respond positively to future challenges? >> now, i'm very happy to do that because i'm extremely disappointed as i know the honorable gentleman is and others are by the job losses. i spoke personally about this decision. i think that is highly welcomed. it's not welcomed and do everything we can. and we can mitigate the local impact of local jobs and local communities. >> i'm sure the prime minister will agree with me when i say there should be no place for corruption in football given the re-election set fifa even further into disrepute will he voice his authority. >> personally, i'

i am transitional aged youth. the matter being discussed has to do with height or the building fitting with in the context of the neighborhood, but what i would like to stress to you is that this is a moral decision on your hands. that is something my grandmother taught me on how to carry myself in life. i think this is one of the moments where it is more clear than ever that this is a moral decision. the fact is that 24 units of transitional housing will still not be enough to meet the needs, but is a step in the right direction. when we talk about feet and units, we're really talking about lives of the youth who have the odds stacked against them. this is an opportunity for you to make the right moral decision of prioritizing the lives of former foster youths and folks who need affordable housing over building height, car spaces, or fitting into the context of a neighborhood. this is about lives. i urge you to make the right moral decision in supporting this project to move forward. thank you. >> [inaudible] it

why would women enjoy watching a show called "men of a certain age"? >> the woman audience is bigger than the male audience. they like to see what is going on for real. now they do not know we are not showing them everything. [laughter] i think that is it. it is kind of a version of something -- these guys are really thinking about something. there is some truth. they are seeing a little bit inside what makes a guy tick, and it surprised me that when an -- there is a larger female audience. even "golden girls" -- hopefully, good writing and reality, people get connected to it. people get invested in it. tavis: for me at least, shows work because i think the right thing is smart, funny, witty. and how much of the success long term will have to do with the right thing? >> it certainly starts with that, and as a writer, thank you. it is all about that, and they have been at tnt good enough that they never say it has to be this way or that way. they have opinions, but i think that network television you get over-noted. tnt is never saying, you have to get
