Jenkins may refer to:
Jenkins is a surname that originated in Cornwall, England, but came to be popular in southern Wales. The name "Jenkin" originally meant "little John" or "son of John". The "kin" portion is of Dutch origin (-kijn), which then gained a certain popularity in England.
Jen/Jean (pronounced "Jon") is a diminutive of Jehan/Jehannes (John/Johan) followed by kin/ken meaning 'little', giving Jenkin or Jenken. The first use of the name "Jenkins" or "Jenkens" in England occurred as early as 1086 as a diminutive of the English form of John. It was often translated (a loan word) from the Flemish/French as "John the younger" or seen as "John Jenken" and incorrectly, but frequently referred as "Little John." The non-diminutive Jehan/Jehannes (pronounced "Jo-han/Jon-han-es") was also translated into English as John. When Jen/Jean and Jehan/Jehannes is seen, it is not reflective of birth order. Jehan/Jehannes is listed as "John the elder" in English, but never translated or seen as "Big John."
"Jenkins" is the 13th episode of the fifth season of the CBS situation comedy How I Met Your Mother and 101st episode overall. It originally aired on January 18, 2010. The episode hit a season high with 10.52 million viewers and high overall ratings.
The episode is directed by starring actor and first-time director Neil Patrick Harris.
Ted and Marshall walk into a college bar, and Ted is worried about meeting his students there. Marshall returns to the bar on a regular basis to maintain his skeeball high score. Marshall tells the group a collection of hilarious stories about Jenkins, his co-worker. Ted at first imagines Jenkins as a goofy fat man. However, when Jenkins arrives at the bar, she turns out to be a woman (Amanda Peet).
The next day, Lily unexpectedly shows up at Marshall's workplace, and finds out that Jenkins is a woman. However, she is not at all jealous or upset that Marshall neglected to tell her of Jenkins' gender. Ted and Robin explain to a confused Marshall that it isn't because of her trust in him, but because of their relationship dynamics. They theorize that in every relationship, one person, whose partner is out of their league, is a "reacher", and the other is a "settler", who settles for the less attractive partner. Flabbergasted, Marshall asks Lily to classify herself as one or the other, and she, after much hesitation, says "settler."
Fulton Co. Superior Court Judge Kimberly Adams pointed out the sheer maliciousness, callousness, recklessness of the murder of Shanna Smith during sentencing.

(5 Aug 2016) The suspect accused of killing two teenagers in an Atlanta suburb has appeared before a judge for the first time, his legs and hands shaking. Video from the court room shows 20-year-old Jeffrey Hazelwood jerking his head around, and his hands and wrists shaking continuously at his first hearing Friday at the Fulton County Jail. Hazelwood was arrested Wednesday and charged with two counts of murder in the killings of Carter Davis and Natalie Henderson. The 17-year-olds were each shot once in the head. Local TV stations report that Hazelwood talked to himself during the hearing and appeared to be petting an imaginary dog at one point, but said nothing to the judge.
