Dependency issues in Linux Mint 13


Hello, I have been encountering some dependency issues in Linux Mint 13. Whenever I try to correct this using sudo apt-get -f install it responds with this:

Code:
Screenshot 1: http://postimage.org/image/b36fiqx6d/
Screenshot 2: http://postimage.org/image/lxe6s9mrv/
How can I fix this error?
