Long Term Unemployment

Stephan Azor works on his laptop from his home in Washington, Friday, June, 4, 2010. Azor is looking for information technology work, perhaps overseeing a company's computer systems and infrastructure. He was laid off eight months ago as a system administrator for a defense contractor. "Technology changes every six months, so there are things I have to look up and learn," says Azor, who lives in Washington. (AP Photo/Pablo Martinez Monsivais)
