US walks out as Iran delivers anti-US speech
U.S. diplomats walked out of the U.N. General Assembly Thursday as Iran's President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad delivered a fiercely anti-American speech, attacking the U.S. as an "arrogant power" ruled by greed.

In record numbers, they're struggling to find work, shunning long-distance moves to live with mom and dad, delaying marriage and raising kids out of wedlock, if they're becoming parents at all. The unemployment rate for them is the highest since World War II and risk living in poverty more than others.
Data released Thursday from the 2010 census show the wrenching impact of a recession that officially ended in mid-2009. There are missed opportunities and dim prospects for a generation of mostly 20-somethings and 30-somethings coming of age in a prolonged period of joblessness.

Europe's Forced Retirees Not Going to Go Gently
Companies say people must retire to make way for younger workers. But why should someone good at a job they love have to leave because of a birthday?
Labor attorneys say national legal regimes and employment practices across Europe are increasingly clashing with a working population that is remaining fitter longer. Some older employees see no reason to retire and are keen to keep working past the age limits set by laws, collective bargaining agreements, employee contracts and custom.
