I've probably refreshed the #IPPA #ICPP7 page a hundred times hoping for an early release of the accepted papers.

New research from Brazil on a critical issue: torture within the juvenile justice system. The Conselho Nacional de Justiça (National Council of Justice) recently released a comprehensive study, and it's a must-read for anyone working in criminology, human rights, or juvenile justice.

What are the odds that, after not being able to present a paper at an event due to a canceled flight, four months later, on your second attempt to present the same paper at another event, your flight is delayed just enough for you to miss your next connecting flight, and your luggage is lost?
