THE Oxford Chinese Dictionary is ideal for both English speakers who want to learn and use Chinese, as well as native Chinese speakers who want to learn and use English. AFTER days of flipping through and studying random words here and there, and cross-referencing with Chinese-speaking friends, I have to say this about the newly published Oxford Chinese Dictionary: `I love it!'. This says quite a bit from someone hard to impress.

The development of ICT policies within developing countries in the past ten years has opened up a new area for study. These documents chart the ambitions of the countries for the use of ICT to promote rapid development. As such they are intercultural documents, developing at the interface between the culture of the country and western economic culture. This paper develops a critical approach to understanding these documents and studying their message. The approach involves the preparation of a critical dictionary which identifies relevant terms within the ICT policy document and reflects on their multiple meanings. The approach was applied to an Egyptian ICT policy document, Building Digital Bridges. A dictionary of thirty seven entries was developed. The dictionary, presented in full i...

Our president used his last inaugural address to declare a divine mission for our country to spread "freedom's fire" to "the darkest corners of the globe." It was language that sounded alarmingly like the jihadists'. Yet we Americans, with our polyglot population and our founding principles based on flight from religious persecution, are not crusaders. The Oxford Dictionary defines liberal as "open-minded; not prejudiced," "not strict or rigorous," "not literal," "for general broadening of the mind" and "favoring individual liberty and political and social reform. As George Will put it in a recent column on the [Bush] administration's overstepping, "terrorism is not the only new danger of this era. Another is the administration's argument that because the president is commander in chie...

Under 18 U.S.C. § 922(g), it is a federal crime for anyone who has been "convicted in any court of a crime punishable by imprisonment of a term exceeding one year" to possess a firearm. In Small v. United States, the Supreme Court held that foreign convictions cannot serve as predicate offenses under § 922(g). In doing so, the Court adopted a new presumption regarding the extraterritoriality of predicate offenses and a curious definition of the word "any." This Note suggests an alternative analysis of § 922(g) that effectuates congressional intent while eliminating the need for new presumptions and curious definitions.

Look up "Swordsman" in the dictionary and chances are you'll see a thumbnail mugshot of Lucy Wilson. That's because for the past 24 years the Whittier resident endeared herself to the St. Paul High School community, holding many positions including dean, foreign language chair, Associated Student Body class moderator and Advanced Placement teacher. She taught religion, health, driver's education but most prominently Spanish in the Swordsmen's hallowed classrooms. She touched the lives of thousands of students and was endeared by all.
