J follows a clue to Coney Island, where 29-year-old junior agent K (Josh Brolin) arrests him and then questions him at MIB headquarters, while a young Agent O (Alice Eve) and Chief X come by. Getting no answers, K de- cides to place J in a large, primitive Neuralyzer. At the last second, J says he’ll tell the truth of his mission and that he is from the future. As a team, they follow Boris’ trail to a bowling alley and then to The Factory, the stu- dio / party space of Andy Warhol’s (Bill Hader), who is actually the under- cover Agent W. The Agents meet the alien Griffin (Michael Stuhlbarg), an Arcadian who possesses the ArcNet and is able to see all possible futures. Griffin leaves before Boris arrives to snatch him. The Agents locate Grif- fin at Shea Stadium, where he gives them the ArcNet and instructs them to place it onto the Apollo 11 lunar rocket launch occurring in less than six hours. Boris then snatches Griffin, but the agents, on monocycles, give chase and recover Griffin.
Upon arriving at Cape Canaveral, the agents and Griffin are arrested by military police. A Colonel (Mike Colter), however, allows the agents to carry on their mission after Griffin uses his precognitive power to show him what J and K will accomplish. J uses the time-jump device to confuse fu- ture Boris- allowing Boris to shoot him before jumping back in time so that he can attack Boris again while avoiding the alien’s attacks-, and pushes him off the pad. K, battling the current Boris, shoots Boris’ left arm, caus- ing him to fall back to the ground. K plants the ArcNet on the rocket, and the protective shield deploys after leaving Earth’s atmosphere, the launch sequence destroying the present Boris. The Colonel congratulates K, who invites him to join the agency.
As J watches from the distance, however, 1969 Boris emerges from the blast chamber and kills the Colonel, only to be killed by K. A child named James exits a military vehicle looking for his father. He pulls out a pocket watch, revealed earlier to have been passed down to Agent J by his father, and J realizes that the colonel killed by Boris was actually his father. K neu- ralyzes young James, telling him his father was a hero, thus fulfilling the
‘prediction’ that J would be present at the moment history changed.
J returns to the present day, where he meets his partner at the usual diner. There, he shows K his father’s pocket watch. The senior agent, in return, tells him it was an honor to have met him that fateful day. As they leave the diner, Griffin, a few seats away, muses all is well with the world (breaking the fourth wall in the process and revealing to the audience that his powers of observation also make him aware of the real world moviego- ers), except for the fact that K forgot to leave a tip, indicating they are in a timeline where the Earth is about to be hit by an asteroid. Then, K returns to the diner and leaves a tip, revealing this timeline to be one where the as- teroid disintegrates when hitting a satellite, and the film ends.

January-June 2012
Ergli, Latvia
YfS with 6 other partners from CoE countries is organizing an informa-
tion campaign focused on environmental education for children and youth. The campaign consists of diverse eco activities in international context en-
couraging children and youth to take care of European nature, their living
environment. The campaign takes place at primary and secondary schools as children do not have there any environmental education and is run by young volunteers from NGOs that focus on environmental issues.
YfS partner is Ergli Secondary School where activities with youngsters are implemented.
The campaign will aim to activate young people in their local communi- ties and show them the purpose of active citizenship. As all partner organi-
sations are youth and deal with environmental protection and environmen-
tal education, the campaign will aim to encourage young people to be active in the field of environmental education for young people and children.
14 young people from 7 organisations from 7 countries (Czech Republic,
Greece, Armenia, Romania, Latvia, Georgia, Russian Federation) will pre- pare the campaign and spread the international experience in the field of environmental education.
From YfS representatives are — Monta Grinberga (legal and admin- istrative) and Kaiva Leiboma (actvities, facilitation and reports) with the support of geography teacher from Ergli Secondary School.
We specifically aim:
y to promote environmental human rights among children and young people
y to make youth understand human impact on nature
y raising awareness of sustainable lifestyle in Europe
y to share experience and knowledge about environmental education on the international level
y to provide workshops on environmental issues to primary and second- ary school students
y to promote environmental awareness among youth, give sufficient in- formation about nature, learn and respect it
Up-dates and more information from the ECO campaign you can read here. Project is supported by the Council of Europe programme European
Youth Foundation and promoted by the organization Youth and Environ- ment Europe.
6. Reading
Read some information about Youth projects and answer the questions. Where is this organisation located? What is the main goal of it?
WHERE IT ALL BEGAN
In the early 1980s, the north-western suburbs of Melbourne had a pre- dominantly Mediterranean and Eastern European migrant population. They were attracted to the area by its cheap housing and a strong mixed manufacturing sector.
Community activists became increasingly concerned about youth un- employment. Many manufacturers were closing their doors or moving out of the area and unemployment support systems were changing from City- based to more regionalised services. Growing numbers of unemployed young people were hanging around with nothing to do.
In 1981, the Broadmeadows City Council offered assistance to establish a drop-in centre where young people would feel welcome and comfortable to talk about any problems or issues they had.
A new committee of management was elected at a public meeting at the end of 1984, and in a bid to gain greater community support, the name was changed to ‘Broadmeadows Youth Projects’.
After incorporation was granted on 7 February 1985, the agency be- came known as Youth Projects Inc.
Not long after incorporation, tragedy struck when a fire all but de- stroyed the building.
With damage estimated at $400,000 and insurance not enough to fully rebuild and refurbish the centre, all programs were suspended. Premier John Cain launched a public appeal for funds, and with additional support from the centre’s original financial backers, the Youth Projects centre was slowly rebuilt and re-opened by Prince Charles and Princess Diana, who were visiting Australia at the time.
