'Negating' the NOT states actually implies the next state. The negation of NOT_CHECKED to CHECKED actually makes CHECKED semantically the equivelent of NOT_VERIFIED. I'd change the sense by changing NOT_CHECKED to NEEDS_CHECK to retain the state but to avoid the seeming double negatives scattered through the code.
