Good Enough for Government Work: The Constitutional Duty to Preserve Forensic Interviews of Child Victims

McGough proceeds with the confidence on the premise that a forensic interview of a child by a member of the prosecutorial team offers many opportunities for compromising the reliability of the child\u27s remembered account. A vast volume of research data now exists that documents the conclusion that the forensic interviewing of children is a very delicate, sophisticated, and high-risk enterprise

The development of an interim generalized gate logic software simulator

A proof-of-concept computer program called IGGLOSS (Interim Generalized Gate Logic Software Simulator) was developed and is discussed. The simulator engine was designed to perform stochastic estimation of self test coverage (fault-detection latency times) of digital computers or systems. A major attribute of the IGGLOSS is its high-speed simulation: 9.5 x 1,000,000 gates/cpu sec for nonfaulted circuits and 4.4 x 1,000,000 gates/cpu sec for faulted circuits on a VAX 11/780 host computer

Protecting Children in Divorce: Lessons from Caroline Norton

No fault divorce is now popularly accepted, at least in non-Catholic populations of the West. Furthermore, the role of the court in divorce and separation disputes has dramatically adjusted from a fact-finder of fault, its traditional adjudicatory role, to an administrative overseer of the process of unwinding the family financial enterprise and approving parenting arrangements. Less appreciated because it is a still-incomplete contemporary transfiguration is the divorce court\u27s role in attempting to enhance parents\u27 future interactions with each other. It is estimated that one-fourth to one-third of divorcing parents have considerable difficulty regaining their footing after separation and perhaps one in ten clearly fail to adjust. Currently there are more than one million divorces in the United States per year involving more than a million children. Between 1970 and 1996, the proportion of children under eighteen who were living with only one parent more than doubled from one out of every eight children (twelve percent) to one out of every four children (twenty-eight percent). The potential harm from the process of divorce presents a significant public health risk to children of epidemic proportions
