Validating Digital Signatures Without Ttp’S Time-Stamping And Certificate Revocation, Jianying Zhou, Feng Bao, Robert H. Deng

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

In non-repudiation services where digital signatures usually serve as irrefutable cryptographic evidence for dispute resolution, trusted time-stamping and certificate revocation services, although very costly in practice, must be available, to prevent big loss due to compromising of the signing key. In [12], a new concept called intrusion-resilient signature was proposed to get rid of trusted time-stamping and certificate revocation services and a concrete scheme was presented. In this paper, we put forward a new scheme that can achieve the same effect in a much more efficient way. In our scheme, forward-secure signature serves as a building block that enables signature …

The Counselor As Expert Witness: Changes In The Michigan Hearsay Rule, John J. Pietrofesa, Cathy J. Pietrofesa, John David Pietrofesa

Michigan Journal of Counseling: Research, Theory and Practice

This article discusses the expanding role of the professional counselor as expert witness. The preferred role of the expert witness is one in which the expert informatively presents the facts and does not act as an advocate trying to influence a legal decision. The expert witness in Michigan now has to consider changes in the Michigan Rules of Evidence which disallows any hearsay evidence the counselor may have acquired during counseling. Additionally, supporting documentation for opinions may not simply be cited, but must be placed into evidence. This article concludes with suggestions for counselors in preparing for the role as …

Children, Sports, And Family Dynamics: Are We Having Fun Yet?, Patrick J. Morrissette, Roberta Graham

Michigan Journal of Counseling: Research, Theory and Practice

The involvement of children in sports is rarely an individual endeavor and can positively and /or negatively affect the entire family system to varying degrees. However, little has been written about how children’s participation in sports impact family dynamics. In working toward filling this void, this paper elaborates on several themes that can emerge when children participate in school or community sports. The themes that will be discussed in this paper include: parent/coach/child triangulation, parent coach-parent conflict, performing a dual role, the family all-star, time, financial commitment, and differing parental perspectives. Based on informal observations and discussions with children, parents, …

College Students And Problematic Drinking: A Review Of The Literature, Lindsay S. Ham, Debra A. Hope

Department of Psychology: Faculty Publications

Problem drinking during the college years is a significant public health concern. The goal of the current review was to examine the primary psychosocial factors that predict problem drinking in college students. Variables examined included demographic variables, personality, drinking history, alcohol expectancies, drinking motives, stress and coping, activity involvement, and peer and family influence. Evidence from studies of college drinking indicated that the variables associated with college drinking seem to vary at levels dealing with one’s personality and coping mechanisms, one’s thought processes about drinking, and the environment. It seems that expectancies and drinking motives may serve as explanations for …

Transformative Explanations: Writing To Overcome Counterintuitive Ideas, Joye C. Gordon

Journal of Extension

This article presents a five-step writing tool, called "transformative explanation," that provides a proven mechanism to promote acceptance of hard-to-understand concepts. When Extension messages present counterintuitive information, message consumers are psychologically motivated to reject the proposition and retain previous understandings. Because gaining perceptual compliance is often a prerequisite to other communication objectives, transformative explanations provide an important tool for message designers.

"This Is Not Like Any Other Legal Question": A Brief History Of Nazi Law Before U.K. And U.S. Courts, David Fraser

Connecticut Journal of International Law

This year marks the forty-fifth anniversary of the Hart-Fuller debate regarding legal positivism and natural law, which first appeared in the pages of the Harvard Law Review.' In this article I attempt to add to the mix and complexity of these jurisprudential debates by exploring the issue at the core of the Hart-Fuller discourse about law by placing it in the concrete context of decided case law. I will explore the current jurisprudential implications of our historically and discursively constructed images of "Nazi law." In what follows, I offer an examination of most of the cases which have compelled British …

A Body Of Her Own: Cultural Constructions Of The Female Body In A.S. Byatt's Strange Stories, Sabine Coelsch-Foisner

Reconstruction: Studies in Contemporary Culture

[First paragraph]

Byatt's short fiction, from her first collection Sugar and Other Stories (1987) to Elementals (1998) is marked by a continuous preoccupation with the body: the body as the product of social signifying practices, the body as the site of desires, fears, and anxieties, the body as the source of experience, the body as creator and created. In brief, the body is treated as the centre of existence, consciousness and identity. Yet, these are constantly called into doubt in Byatt's stories, which depict heroines trapped between asserting their identity and submitting to cultural dictates of beauty and behavior. In …

Big Picture Curricula For Multiethnic Ministry, Tom A. Steffen

Journal of the American Society for Church Growth

This article will propose a storied, big-picture approach to multiethnic ministry. It will advocate curriculum that builds a cathedral rather than isolated rooms. Before considering story-based, big-picture curricula I will first look at how the multiethnic church, and other types of churches, relates to the dominate theological themes of unity and diversity.
