Consequently, I am pleased to present the second issue of the Journal of Juvenile Justice (JOJJ)—OJJDP’s online peer-reviewed journal. I am particularly pleased to note that the intended audience for JOJJ is both practitioners and researchers. Prior to coming to OJJDP, I spent more than 16 years as a deputy county attorney prosecuting child abuse, sexual assault, and homicide cases. I know firsthand the importance—and the challenges—of getting this type of valuable information to professionals in the field. The articles in the Spring 2012 issue of JOJJ are informative and have practical applications. They examine topics of interest to many of us concerned with juvenile justice, such as school learning in a rural juvenile detention facility, arrest histories among homeless youth, and juvenile reentry and reintegration. In many cases, these articles will have an immediate and direct application to juvenile justice professionals and service providers. Studies such as the evaluation of a Community Truancy Board in Spokane, Washington, may have policy and practice implications for juvenile courts in communities across the country. Similarly, the development of a 10-question tool for law enforcement to screen runaway youth about issues related to their safety may help police refer teens to the services they need. This is vital information from research that is of greatest use when it is placed in the hands of those who need it. As Jeff Slowikowski and Brecht Donoghue noted in JOJJ’s inaugural issue, OJJDP has a mission to develop and disseminate knowledge about what works to prevent juvenile delinquency and victimization and improve the juvenile justice system. We hope that by elevating and promoting the knowledge acquired through OJJDP-sponsored and other research that it will gain national attention and inform thoughtful discussions about how we can best meet the diverse needs of our country’s youth. iii OJJDP Journal of Juvenile Justice As you read JOJJ, consider sharing your feedback, and let us know what other topics you would like us to address in the future. If you are a researcher, we are interested in your manuscripts. This and future issues of the Journal of Juvenile Justice are the beginning of an important conversation with the juvenile justice community. I very much look forward to our exchange.

  • Idioms-And-Expressions.Pdf
    Idioms and Expressions by David Holmes A method for learning and remembering idioms and expressions I wrote this model as a teaching device during the time I was working in Bangkok, Thai- land, as a legal editor and language consultant, with one of the Big Four Legal and Tax companies, KPMG (during my afternoon job) after teaching at the university. When I had no legal documents to edit and no individual advising to do (which was quite frequently) I would sit at my desk, (like some old character out of a Charles Dickens’ novel) and prepare language materials to be used for helping professionals who had learned English as a second language—for even up to fifteen years in school—but who were still unable to follow a movie in English, understand the World News on TV, or converse in a colloquial style, because they’d never had a chance to hear and learn com- mon, everyday expressions such as, “It’s a done deal!” or “Drop whatever you’re doing.” Because misunderstandings of such idioms and expressions frequently caused miscom- munication between our management teams and foreign clients, I was asked to try to as- sist. I am happy to be able to share the materials that follow, such as they are, in the hope that they may be of some use and benefit to others. The simple teaching device I used was three-fold: 1. Make a note of an idiom/expression 2. Define and explain it in understandable words (including synonyms.) 3. Give at least three sample sentences to illustrate how the expression is used in context.

  • THE COLLECTED POEMS of HENRIK IBSEN Translated by John Northam
    1 THE COLLECTED POEMS OF HENRIK IBSEN Translated by John Northam 2 PREFACE With the exception of a relatively small number of pieces, Ibsen’s copious output as a poet has been little regarded, even in Norway. The English-reading public has been denied access to the whole corpus. That is regrettable, because in it can be traced interesting developments, in style, material and ideas related to the later prose works, and there are several poems, witty, moving, thought provoking, that are attractive in their own right. The earliest poems, written in Grimstad, where Ibsen worked as an assistant to the local apothecary, are what one would expect of a novice. Resignation, Doubt and Hope, Moonlight Voyage on the Sea are, as their titles suggest, exercises in the conventional, introverted melancholy of the unrecognised young poet. Moonlight Mood, To the Star express a yearning for the typically ethereal, unattainable beloved. In The Giant Oak and To Hungary Ibsen exhorts Norway and Hungary to resist the actual and immediate threat of Prussian aggression, but does so in the entirely conventional imagery of the heroic Viking past. From early on, however, signs begin to appear of a more personal and immediate engagement with real life. There is, for instance, a telling juxtaposition of two poems, each of them inspired by a female visitation. It is Over is undeviatingly an exercise in romantic glamour: the poet, wandering by moonlight mid the ruins of a great palace, is visited by the wraith of the noble lady once its occupant; whereupon the ruins are restored to their old splendour.

  • Bowling Green State University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Of
    NOBODY AND SOMEBODY: AN INTRODUCTION AND CRITICAL EDITION David L. Hay A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate School of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR Of PHILOSOPHY December 1970 Approved by Doctoral Committee Advisor Department of English BOWLING GREEN STATE UNIVERSITY LlBRARi ABSTRACT Nobody and Somebody, an anonymous English history play, has received little critical attention since it was first printed in l606. Most critics who have examined the work have commented on its weaknesses in characteri­ zation or poetic development, or have simply noted that it is a fusion of the forms of the history play and the morality play. This study, however, examined the play in light of Irving Ribner’s standard definition of the genre, and found Nobody and Somebody to be unconventional in that the clear position of order and control that character­ izes the conclusions of most English history plays is here lacking. The playwright has consciously and artistically altered his sources, established characters, developed imagery, and juxtaposed scenes to emphasize the disorder that exists throughout the play. In the final scene he has brought the two plots of the play together and has created the potential for order and reconciliation. But that order is never actualized, as the problems of disorder are conveniently ignored by those characters responsible for them or responsible for their correction. The author has thus written an unconventional play that stresses the continuing disorder of the world rather than the clear reestablishment of order that is normally stressed in the genre.

  • Eric Harris's Journal Transcribed and Annotated
    Eric Harris’s Journal Transcribed and annotated by Peter Langman, Ph.D. This transcription has corrected Eric’s writing to some extent in terms of spelling, punctuation, and capitalization. The correction offers two benefits. First, it makes the text easier to read. Second, the corrected spelling is an asset for anyone who wishes to search for a particular word. Though Eric’s writing is usually legible, occasional words are noted as illegible or are tran- scribed with a question mark following to indicate a lack of certainty. The parenthetical phrases are Eric’s; words in brackets are mine. Note that Eric dated his entries at the end, whereas Dylan dated them at the beginning. The numbers in the left column refer to the pages in the Jefferson County Sheriff’s OfficeJCSO ( ) Columbine documents. JCSO has blacked out names other than Eric and Dylan; these are indicated thus: . p. 26,003 I hate the fucking world, too much god damn fuckers in it. Too many thoughts and different societies all wrapped up together in this fucking place called AMERICA. Everyone has their own god damn opinions on every god damn thing and you may be saying “well what makes you so different?” because I have something only me and V1 have, SELF AWARENESS. Call it existentialism or whatever the fuck you want. We know what we are to this world and what everyone else is. We learn more than what caused the civil war and how to simplify quadratics in school. We have been watching you people. We know what you think and how you act.

A Midsummer Night’s Dream Bottom 4.1.210-229 [Waking up.] When my cue comes, call me, and I will answer. My next is “Most fair Pyramus.” Hey-ho! Peter Quince! Flute the bellows-mender! Snout the tinker! Starveling! God’s my life! Stolen hence and left me asleep! I have had a most rare vision. I have had a dream past the wit of man to say what dream it was. Man is but an ass if he go about to expound this dream. Methought I was—there is no man can tell what. Methought I was and methought I had—but man is but a patched fool if he will offer to say what methought I had. The eye of man hath not heard, the ear of man hath not seen, man’s hand is not able to taste, his tongue to conceive, nor his heart to report what my dream was. I will get Peter Quince to write a ballad of this dream. It shall be called “Bottom’s Dream” because it hath no bottom; and I will sing it in the latter end of a play, before the Duke. Peradventure, to make it the more gracious, I shall sing it at her death. 1 A Midsummer Night’s Dream Bottom [As Pyramus] 5.1.291-302, 306-316 But stay! O spite! But mark, poor knight, What dreadful dole is here! Eyes, do you see! How can it be! O dainty duck! O dear! Thy mantle good— What, stained with blood? Approach, ye Furies fell! O Fates, come, come, Cut thread and thrum, Quail, crush, conclude, and quell! O, wherefore, Nature, didst thou lions frame, Since lion vile hath here deflowered my dear, Which is—no, no—which was the fairest dame That lived, that loved, that liked, that looked with cheer? Come, tears, confound! Out, sword, and wound The pap of Pyramus; Ay, that left pap, Where heart doth hop.

  • The Barbarism of Slavery
    The barbarism of slavery THE Barbarism of Slavery [NEW EDITION—WITH A DEDICATION.] BY HON. CHARLES SUMNER. THE BARBARISM OF SLAVERY: SPEECH OF HON. CHARLES SUMNER, ON THE Bill for the Admission of Kansas as a Free State, In the United States Senate, June 4, 1860. NEW EDITION—WITH A DEDICATION. MR. MADISON THOUGHT IT WRONG TO ADMIT IN THE CONSTITUTION THE IDEA OF PROPERTY IN MAN.—Debates in the Federal Convention, 25th August, 1787. PUBLISHED BY THE YOUNG MEN'S REPUBLICAN UNION. (For Sale by John Bradburn, 49 Walker Street.) NEW-YORK, 1863. DEDICATION. To the Young Men of the United States, I dedicate this new edition of a Speech on the Barbarism of Slavery, in token of heartfelt gratitude to them for brave and patriotic service rendered in the present War for Civilization: It is now more than three years since I deemed it my duty to expose, in the Senate, the Barbarism of Slavery. This phrase, though common now, was new then. The speech was a strict and logical reply to the assumptions of Senators, asserting the “divine origin” of Slavery, its “ennobling” character, and that it was the “black marble keystone” of our national arch. Listening to these assumptions, which were of daily recurrence, I felt that they ought to be answered. And, considering their effrontery, it seemed to me that they should be answered frankly and openly by exhibiting Slavery as it really is, without reserve; careful that I should “nothing extenuate, nor set down aught in malice.” This I did. In that debate the issue was joined which is still pending in the Trial by Battle.

  • Basement Tapes”
    Transcript of the Columbine “Basement Tapes” Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold made several videotapes of themselves talking about their up- coming attack. These have not been made public in full, but parts of them have been released. The following are transcripts of the publicly available passages. Bracketed text is in the original. Some minor misprints have been corrected. ► 15 March 1999 [Evidence item #265] Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold are sitting in the Harris home basement-level family room. Eric is sitting on the couch and Dylan’s sitting in a chair nearby. They’re drinking from a Jack Daniels bottle, which Eric points out. The boys begin to discuss a number of topics; they speak of their hope that the videos they’re making will one day be shown all over the world, when their “masterpiece” is done and everyone wants to know why they did it. DYLAN KLEBOLD: I’d like to make a thank you to Mark John Doe and Phil John Doe. I hope you don’t get fucked. [Eric laughs; Dylan continues] “We used them. They had no clue . Don’t blame them. And don’t fucking arrest them. Don’t arrest any of our friends, or family members or our co-workers. They had no fucking clue. Don’t arrest anyone, because they didn’t have a fucking clue. If it hadn’t been them, it would’ve been someone else over twenty-one. They mention the time a clerk from Green Mountain Guns called Eric’s home. Eric’s dad, Wayne Harris, answered the phone.
