Some Justices Suggest Preserving Part of Health-Care Law
Several U.S. Supreme Court justices suggested they may leave much of President Barack Obama's health-care law intact even if they strike down its core requirement that Americans buy insurance.
"The bottom line is, why don't we let Congress fix it" instead of throwing out the entire law, said Justice Sonia Sotomayor during the third and final day of arguments on the health-care law.
Chief Justice John Roberts and Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, in arguments still under way this morning, said the law includes items, such as reauthorizing black-lung benefits and an Indian health-care measure, that aren't related to the individual health insurance mandate.
"Why make Congress redo those?" Ginsburg said. It would be better to let Congress decide "whether it wants them in or out," she said.
If the court strikes down the requirement to have health coverage, insurance companies want the justices also to toss out provisions that forbid them from refusing coverage or charging higher premiums based on pre-existing conditions.
Justice Elena Kagan said there was a "sharp dividing line" between those provisions and the other parts of the law. She said the case may be one in which "half a loaf is better."
Still, Justice Anthony Kennedy questioned whether it would be a "more extreme" exercise of judicial power to strike down some of the statute rather than all of it.
Added Significance
The debate on the rest of the health-care law took on added significance after questions from justices yesterday indicated a majority might rule against the insurance requirement.
The justices probably will rule in late June, months before the November election. A ruling against the measure would give ammunition to Obama's Republican challengers, who have said the law should be repealed.
The court hasn't overturned legislation with such sweeping impact since the 1930s, when it voided parts of Franklin D. Roosevelt's New Deal, the package of economic programs enacted in the 1930s in response to the Great Depression.
The Standard & Poor's Supercomposite Managed Health Care Index of 12 insurance companies declined 0.31 percent at 11:46 a.m. New York time.
Credit-Default Swaps
The cost to protect against losses on the debt of U.S. health-care companies is rising as investors hedge against potential declines when the court rules.
Credit-default swaps linked to hospital operators HCA Holdings Inc., Tenet Healthcare Corp. and Community Health Systems Inc. are poised for the biggest monthly increase since September, climbing an average 79 basis points to 595 basis points, according to data provider CMA.
Paul Clement, the lawyer for 26 states challenging the health-care law, argued today that the court should invalidate the entire statute if it decides the mandatory insurance section, which he called "the very heart of this act," is unconstitutional.
The mandate and the insurance coverage rules are connected to insurance exchanges that would be created so people without employer-provided insurance could buy coverage, he said. Those, in turn, are related to tax credits for employers that offer insurance to their workers, he said.
Keeping parts of the law without the individual mandate would leave a "hollow shell," Clement said. "Whatever you do, Congress is going to have options."
Scalia Questions Clement
Justice Antonin Scalia said that under Clement's argument, if the court struck down even a minor provision that was included to get particular lawmaker's vote, "You're telling us that the whole statute would fall."
"That can't be right," Scalia said. He said later that whatever the court decides, it would "distort" the congressional process.
If the court rules the individual mandate unconstitutional, it would be faced with "a choice between a wrecking operation or a salvage job," Ginsburg said, adding that she would prefer salvaging other parts of the measure.
Invalidating only the individual insurance mandate would be the "worst-case scenario" for insurance companies, said Paul Heldman, a health-policy analyst at Potomac Research Group in Washington. "That would create an unstable market for insurers in which they would be stuck covering the most expensive people while leaving the healthier people off the insurance rolls."
Today's Session
In an afternoon session today, the justices will consider a challenge by 26 states that object to a section of the law that expands the federal-state Medicaid health-insurance program for the poor.
Questions from the bench during yesterday's hearing on mandatory insurance coverage indicated the justices may split 5-to-4, with the court's five Republican appointees joining to overturn that part of the law.
The Obama administration needs support from at least one Republican appointee on the nine-member court to uphold the 2010 law. Four of them -- Roberts and Scalia, Samuel Alito and Kennedy -- interrupted U.S. Solicitor General Donald Verrilli repeatedly yesterday as he pressed his case for upholding the law.
Extending Coverage
The health law would extend coverage to 32 million people who lack insurance by 2016, and revamp an industry that accounts for 18 percent of the U.S. economy, in part through the coverage mandate.
An Atlanta-based federal appeals court found the health-insurance mandate unconstitutional and ruled that the rest of the law remains valid. None of the parties to the case wants the Supreme Court to follow suit.
The government, agreeing with the insurance industry, says if Congress can't make everybody have coverage, the justices should toss out sections of the law known as the guaranteed-issue and community-rating provisions. Those sections say insurers must issue policies and set rates without regard to pre-existing health conditions.
Without mandatory insurance rules, the government says those provisions would create an industry "death spiral," in which only patients with costly health conditions would obtain insurance. That would lead to higher premiums, which would prompt healthy policyholders to drop coverage, causing more rate increases, the government says.
'Package Deal'
Insurance industry groups, in a court brief, said Congress structured new policy requirements in a "package deal" with mandatory coverage.
America's Health Insurance Plans, a trade group in Washington, and the Chicago-based Blue Cross Blue Shield Association, which didn't take a position on the insurance mandate's constitutionality, argued that the guaranteed-issue and community-rating rules aren't practical by themselves.
"Congress would not have intended those insurance-market reforms to operate on their own, without the vital counterbalance of the minimum individual coverage mandate there to prevent the skyrocketing premiums that would otherwise arise," the industry groups' brief said.
Because none of the participants supports the appeals court's conclusion, the Supreme Court appointed an outside lawyer, H. Bartow Farr III, to argue that the rest of the statute -- including the guaranteed-issue and community-rating sections -- should be left in force even if the justices strike down the individual mandate.
In the afternoon argument, the Medicaid issue may be an uphill fight for the states. No lower court judge has accepted their contention that the law unconstitutionally coerces the states into spending their own tax dollars against their will.
The health law's Medicaid expansion is designed to cover 17 million uninsured people by extending eligibility to those with incomes up to 138 percent of the federal poverty line. States that don't comply with the new expansion would lose all or part of their share of federal Medicaid funding.

DESERT ISLAND DOZENS: PETER ERSKINE by Eric Novod (editor)
In the music world, but especially in the jazz world, everyone wants to know what everybody else is listening to. So it is a special occasion when you can sit down with a respected and admired musician and find out what tracks influenced them more than any others. It is with this in mind that "Desert Island Dozens" is launched at jazz.com – an inside look at the twelve all-time favorite tracks from some of jazz's all-time favorite players.
For its opening installment, modern drumming luminary Peter Erskine presents us with his "Desert Island Dozens." Peter has shared the bandstand with Stan Kenton, Maynard Ferguson, Weather Report, Joe Henderson, Jaco Pastorius, Steps Ahead, Marc Johnson's Bass Desires, John Abercrombie, Bob Mintzer, Michael Brecker, and Diana Krall, among many others. He is also an esteemed author and teacher, publishing many drum method books and teaching at universities and drum schools across the country. His most recent release, Worth the Wait, from Peter Erskine, Tim Hagans, and the Norbotten Big Band, was released on Peter's independent label, Fuzzy Music.
Duke Ellington (featuring Paul Gonsalves): Diminuendo and Crescendo in Blue
Diminuendo in Blue and Crescendo in Blue (1956)
Duke Ellington & His Orchestra
Ellington at Newport 1956: Complete (Columbia/Legacy C2K64932)
Big band featuring soloists Duke Ellington (piano), Paul Gonsalves (tenor sax), Johnny Hodges (alto sax), Cat Anderson (trumpet).
Recorded: Newport, R.I., July 7-8, 1956
Rating: 100/100 (learn more)
(Editor's note: Duke Ellington introduced this tune at Newport '56 by stating the following: "And now we would like to play some of our 1938 vintage Diminuendo in Blue and Crescendo in Blue. These are separated by an interlude by Paul Gonsalves." Little did Duke know what an understatement this would become. E.N.)
The legendary 27-chorus solo by Paul Gonsalves on Diminuendo in Blue during the Ellington band's performance at the Newport Jazz Festival in 1956 nearly caused a riot! The relentless intensity, inventiveness, and swing is a marvel to listen to and behold.

Composed by Thad Jones.
Recorded: Miami, Florida, May, 1959
Rating: 100/100 (learn more)
This performance by the Basie band took place during a late-night gig at a Disc Jockeys of America convention on May 31, 1959. The dance for 2000+ people started at 2 a.m. and ended at 7 a.m. (Basie's band had been booked at Birdland that week. The band flew to Miami late at night, played the gig and then returned to NYC after the gig in time for their scheduled performance at Birdland that evening.) Thad Jones wrote this tune, and you can hear the genesis of the band he shared with Mel Lewis a few years later. It's fascinating to listen to Sonny Payne play this; like the whole band, he swings like crazy. Other tracks are all great, especially those with singer Joe Williams. A wonderful album.

I love the entire Cuban Fire Suite. In fact, I love all of the music that Johnny Richards wrote for the Kenton band. This album represents one of the first and finest fusions of jazz and Afro-Cuban music. This ballad features wonderful solos. Mel Lewis's drumming throughout is, as always, perfect. My professor from college, George Gaber, plays timpani on several tracks of the album. For power combined with lyricism, this is hard to beat.

Miles Davis: Blue in Green
Blue in Green
Kind of Blue (Columbia/Legacy CK 64935)
Miles Davis (trumpet), John Coltrane (tenor sax), Bill Evans (piano), Paul Chambers (bass), Jimmy Cobb (drums).
Composed by Miles Davis.
Recorded: New York, April 22, 1959
Rating: 100/100 (learn more)
(Editor's note: Bill Evans was the ideal addition to the Davis group for the modal concentration of Kind of Blue. Having personally studied with George Russell and therefore familiar with his Lydian Chromatic Concept of Tonal Organization, he and Miles collaborated on some of the most celebrated jazz ever recorded. E.N.)
This album is on everyone's desert island list. I spoke with Jimmy Cobb recently, and he said that the thing that most struck him about Kind of Blue as of late is that he's "the only one left." "Blue in Green" set a new standard for poetry and patience in music.

Miles Ahead (Sony SICP 1202)
Miles Davis (trumpet),
leading a 19-piece band conducted by Gil Evans, also featuring Lee Konitz (alto), Wynton Kelly (piano), Paul Chambers (bass) and Art Taylor (drums).
Arranged by Gil Evans. Composed by Dave Brubeck.
Recorded: New York, May 10, 1957
Rating: 100/100 (learn more)
(Editor's note: Miles Ahead was the first Miles Davis/Gil Evans collaboration for the Columbia label, with the extraordinary Porgy and Bess and Sketches of Spain soon to follow. As Peter suggests, however, their initial teamwork here was a complete musical triumph. E.N.)
My favorite composition of Dave Brubeck's, realized to perfection by Gil Evans's writing, Miles's playing and the band's accompaniment. This is a perfect song, in tribute to Duke Ellington. "The Duke" seems to say it all.

Miles Davis: Stuff
Miles in the Sky (Columbia 9628)
Miles Davis (trumpet), Wayne Shorter (tenor sax), Herbie Hancock (electric piano), Ron Carter (electric bass), Tony Williams (drums).
Composed by Miles Davis.
Recorded: Columbia Studio B, NYC, May 17, 1968
Rating: 100/100 (learn more)
(Editor's note: Recorded after the all-acoustic Nefertiti, Miles in the Sky was his first record that to experiment with combinations of acoustic and electric instruments. While other tracks on this record ("Paraphernalia") feature electric guitar, "Stuff" features both electric bass and piano from Carter and Hancock. E.N.)
As much as I love In A Silent Way, this album pointed my way towards the future of music. Thank you Tony Williams and Ron Carter! How can something be so loose and yet so funky?
Reviewer: Peter Erskine (for Desert Island Dozens)
Chick Corea: Matrix
Chick Corea (piano)
Now He Sings, Now He Sobs (Blue Note 38265)
Chick Corea (piano), Miroslav Vitous (bass), Roy Haynes (drums).
Recorded: New York, March 1968
Rating: 100/100 (learn more)
(Editor's note: Awarded the Grammy Hall of Fame Award in 1999, Now He Sings, Now He Sobs was the first, and most celebrated, collaboration between Corea, Vitous and Haynes. They can also be heard performing as a trio on Trio Music (1981) and Trio Music: Live in Europe (1984). E.N.).
This album was the original "postcard from the future" recording for me. Roy Haynes is a genius. I first heard Roy on the Eric Dolphy Out There album, which was plenty out there. Chick's album (when it was first released, neither Roy's nor Miroslav's names were listed!) was "out," too, but in a piano trio way.

John Coltrane: Resolution
John Coltrane (tenor sax)
A Love Supreme
John Coltrane (tenor sax), McCoy Tyner (piano), Jimmy Garrison (bass), Elvin Jones (drums).
Composed by John Coltrane.
Recorded: Englewood Cliffs, NJ, December 9, 1964
Rating: 100/100 (learn more)
(Editor's note: A musical and spiritual journey completed on a single December day, A Love Supreme is the apex of instrumental storytelling in jazz. Note the classic tension-building use of block chords at the conclusion of Tyner's solo that lead to Coltrane's sublime re-arrival. E.N.)
There are no words to describe this milestone in art, except for John Coltrane, McCoy Tyner, Jimmy Garrison and Elvin Jones.

Wayne Shorter (tenor sax), Joe Zawinul (keyboards), Alphonso Johnson (electric bass),
Ishmael Wilburn (drums), Skip Hadden (drums), Dom Um Romao (percussion).
Composed by Joe Zawinul.
Recorded: Hollywood, California, February-May 1974
Rating: 100/100 (learn more)
(Editor's note: A transitional Weather Report record, Mysterious Traveller saw Alphonso Johnson replace Miroslav Vitous on bass and the addition of Ishmael Wilburn on drums (sharing drum duties with Skip Hadden). The brilliant consistency of the Shorter and Zawinul collaboration, however, made for an effortless, memorable record. E.N.)
This album seems to capture what the band did best: play music like nobody else. "Nubian Sundance" is jazz's Sergeant Pepper.

Weather Report
Heavy Weather (Columbia PC 34418)
Wayne Shorter (tenor sax), Joe Zawinul (keyboards), Jaco Pastorius (electric bass), Alex Acuna (drums), Manolo Badrena (percussion).
Composed by Joe Zawinul.
Recorded: Hollywood, California, October 1976
Rating: 100/100 (learn more)
(Editor's note: The seventh Weather Report record and the first featuring Jaco Pastorius as a full-time member of the group, Heavy Weather is filled with memorable material, from "Birdland" to "Havona" to "Palladium" to this Zawinul classic, "The Juggler." E.N.)
This tune's brilliance was recently revealed to me by Alex Acuńa: the drum rhythms are from Peru ~ this is Alex's favorite cut from Heavy Weather. I love it, too, in part because it is a marvelous yin to the rest of the album's yang. Heavy Weather is so great, in part, because of the presence of this tune. Joe Zawinul was a great, great composer.

Keith Jarrett: Common Mama
Common Mama
Keith Jarrett (piano, keyboards, percussion)
Expectations (Columbia KG 31580)
Keith Jarrett (piano, keyboards, percussion), Charlie Haden (bass), Paul Motian (drums), Airto Moreira (percussion).
Composed by Keith Jarrett.
Recorded: New York City, September – October 1971
Rating: 100/100 (learn more)
(Editor's note: With the enormous amount of revered material Keith Jarrett has released as a solo performer and with his Peacock/DeJohnette trio, it is easy to overlook his American Quartet material from the 1970s. Redman, Haden and Motian joined Jarrett on countless standout efforts, including Birth, Fort Yawuh, Treasure Island, and Death and the Flower. On this effort, the quartet is supplemented by strings and additional brass. E.N.)
I've always loved this track since the first time I heard it in 1972. Keith writes great tunes, and the band here is stellar. Paul Motian's focus and discipline and completely "way-out," unconventional drumming on this is fascinating. I asked one of my students at USC to describe or explain what was so great about Paul's drumming on this tune. My student, Louis Cole, replied: "He lets the music do all of the work." Brilliant.

Rating: 100/100 (learn more)
(Editor's Note: This recent trio release, a reunion of the group previously heard on Badlands and Live at Rocco, was released on Fuzzy Music, Peter's independent record label. According to www.fuzzymusic.com, "many artists find themselves dipping into rich cultural pools of musical styles, beliefs and realities that do not fit into the large, corporate/record company way of thought or aesthetics. The only way to make some of this music available was to start our own company. Fuzzy Music® has been created and is offered to you in a spirit of creativity and conscience, with our promise to strive earnestly to find and produce the best quality music we know how." E.N.)
Hey, you never know when you might run into a jazz critic on a desert island… "Here's some fresh water, HEY have you heard my latest CD?" Alan Pasqua and Dave Carpenter are 2 of my favorite musicians to play with; Alan's arrangement of this Dizzy Gillespie classic is ingenious, and I actually like what I played on this. The sound of the recording is really good, too. Pardon my immodesty for including it.
Reviewer: Peter Erskine (for Desert Island Dozens)
And just in case this desert island allows for more than a dozen, here are some of Peter's "runner up" recordings that almost made the list:
1. Live in New York by Cannonball Adderley and his Sextet.
2. From the Hot Afternoon by Paul Desmond (with arrangement by Don Sebesky, plus Ron Carter and Airto Morieria in the rhythm section; a classic CTI album)
3. Art Pepper + Eleven (classic West Coast jazz, with Marty Paich arrangements and Mel Lewis' drums)
4. Thelonious Monk at Carnegie Hall with Coltrane (or Live at the Five Spot with Roy Haynes)
5. Swingin' New Big Band – Buddy Rich's first big band album form the 1960s
6. Both Sides Now – Joni Mitchell/Vince Mendoza collaboration (with Wayne and Herbie and orchestra)
7. The Best of Aretha Franklin (the Atlantic sessions) for the pleasure of hearing Ms. Franklin as accompanied by Chuck Rainey, Cornell Dupree and Bernard "Pretty" Purdie
8. Hmmm … and the track "I Just Kissed My Baby" by The Meters, 'cause it's so funky.

The Georgia Senate worked late into the night Tuesday on a long list of bills, but appeared unlikely to take action before the final day of the session on a measure that cracks down on illegal immigration and contains some provisions similar to a tough Arizona law.The House on Tuesday passed a toughened version of the bill authored by Rep. Matt Ramsey. The Senate has it but hasn't taken it up. Thursday is the next and final day of the legislative session. The bill contains provisions that would authorize law enforcement officers to verify the immigration status of certain criminal suspects and would penalize people who "knowingly and willingly" transport or harbor illegal immigrants.

12/11/2010, Rotuma Fiji
Captain Cook sailed north through Tonga. He heard there were islands to the west called Fiji, where the warriors were fierce. The cannibals in Tonga were also fierce but cunning. They could smile and entertain and appear "friendly", all for the purpose of creating opportunity to overcome the superior arms of Cook. But Cook, coming from a strong military background, was forever vigilant and always kept interactions with the natives weighted in his favor. William Bligh was sailing as an officer under Cook on this voyage of discovery. Cook would not return but Bligh would.
In 1789, Captain Bligh and his crew of 18 castaways were the first Europeans to sail through Fiji waters after narrowly surviving the warriors of Tonga. In Fiji, at the northern most point of the Yasawa group in northwest Fiji, Blighs small yawl was nearly overcome by a catamaran full of cannibals. Bligh had no way of knowing he should turn north, where on Rotuma, 300 miles away, he would find an abundance of tropical vegetables and fat hogs. And being the most contradictory of south pacific islands, there is no oral or written history of the Rotumans ever being cannibals. A wayward band of castaways, as it had been the custom, would have been welcomed.
Rotuma was eventually discovered by Captain E. Edwards, sailing the brig Pandora. In 1791, the British Admiralty sent Edwards on a serious mission to scour the Pacific for that mutineer Fletcher Christian and his band of scoundrels who commandeered the Bounty and sent Captain Bligh and his men adrift. Edwards stumbled onto Rotuma and other uncharted islands but Christian was no where to be found.
The next European ship to visit Rotuma was the British missionary ship Duff which was searching for souls to save in 1797. In the mid 1800s Rotuma became a popular stop for world roaming whale ships in need of fresh food and fresh water. In more recent times, few outsiders were allowed to visit Rotuma.
After 2 ½ days of sailing we approached on the horizon a very green mountainous island, all alone in the ocean, looking much like the volcanic islands of French Polynesia. We rounded a couple small in diameter, but tall, islets on the north east corner. These green spires were nearly mobile with birds clouding like bees on a hive. Brick House jibed over and sailed behind the protection of the islets and a reef. We dropped anchor in a calm pond of turquoise very close to shore. But for one stretch of fine white sand beach lining the shore from a rock pier, the shore was 15 foot high black lava rock protected seaward by the shallow reef. On the passage we had kept a good watch, night and day so were starved for sleep. We promptly fell into the bunks. It was Saturday, noon time, and we anticipated waiting until Monday morning to clear customs.
An hour later, a car horn honked with determination on the nearby wharf, and when we poked our heads up to see what the commotion was, it was the officials motioning for us to come get them. With cloudy eyes and hazy brains, we launched the dinghy off the foredeck. Patrick went for 2 rounds of bringing a total of 4 people out to the boat.
After serving cold drinks and being nice to the officials, we were cleared in. Turns out that we are boat #8 to clear in or out of Rotuma since this place became an official clearance port. They treated it like we were an international arrival, just for practice. It used to be that for a sailboat to come here, they would have to get special permission in Suva, sail here, and then sail 250 miles back against the wind to go back to Lautoka to check out of Fiji. Now boats going north have a convenient stop to break up the trip.
12/11/2010, Rotuma Fiji
It turned out to be more than just a rest stop. It was in many ways a highlight of Fiji. Although was it really Fiji? Same friendly people...same hospitality and gorgeous smiles. Same school schedule for the children, and same wide spread fluency in English. But sevusevu, bringing a gift of cava, with a local chief - no...we weren't expected to do sevusevu anywhere on Rotuma. They drink Kava, but they grow their own high grade stuff. When the locals ask us where the last place we visited was, they say "- Oh - you came from Fiji"...like it was another country...not theirs. And the people had a different look than the Fijians had...a more Polynesian look with straight hair and different shaped eyes and noses. But then there are many exceptions to that statement. The dancing, as we witnessed later in the week, was like back in French Polynesia...not the more sedentary dancing of Fiji. The language was not Fijian nor Samoan or Maori. No one else in the Pacific can understand Rotuman, and of course, neither could we. Language in the Pacific is as diverse as language in Europe.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) for the Research on Gender in
Science and Engineering Program (GSE) (NSF
The following FAQs pertain to the program solicitation for Research
on Gender in Science and Engineering (GSE) (NSF-07-501)
Question: What
kinds of projects is GSE currently funding?
Answer: GSE currently
funds research on gender issues in science, technology, engineering
and mathematics (STEM) fields, the outreach and communication of
research findings, and extension services that lead to a larger
and more diverse domestic STEM workforce. Research includes both basic and applied
research in the social, behavioral, and economic sciences and education
research fields. Projects will contribute to our knowledge
base by examining gender-related similarities and differences in
learning and in the educational experiences that affect student
interest, performance, and choice of careers; and how pedagogical
approaches and teaching styles, curriculum, student services, and
institutional culture contribute to causing or closing gender gaps
that persist in certain fields.
Question: I would like to design an intervention that
will give girls and/or women hands-on experiences in STEM education
and/or research. Would such an activity fall within the
scope of the GSE program?
Answer: No, the GSE program
no longer funds demonstration or intervention projects for women
or girls. There are other
NSF programs that do fund such projects, such as the Information
Technology Experiences for Teachers and Students (ITEST) program
and the Broadening Participation in Computing program (http://www.nsf.gov/funding/pgm_summ.jsp?pims_id=13510&org=CNS).
Question: I'd like to design an evaluation research
project that assesses the effectiveness of an intervention. Would
this fall within the scope of the GSE program?
Answer: No, the GSE program does not fund evaluations. Other
NSF programs that do fund evaluation studies include the Research
and Evaluation on Education in Science and Engineering (REESE)
program (http://www.nsf.gov/funding/pgm_summ.jsp?pims_id=13667&org=REC&from=home),
and the Discovery Research K-12 (DR-K12) program (http://www.nsf.gov/funding/pgm_summ.jsp?pims_id=500047&org=ESIE&from=home)
Question: Can an intervention be included in a research
Answer: Only if the intervention is an integral
part of gathering data for a research project and if the findings
from the intervention would substantially answer the research questions
posed within the context of theory and hypotheses. There should
be meaningful control groups also included in the design. The
major thrust of the proposal must be focused on theory and research
and not on the design and implementation of the intervention.
Question: I'd like to conduct research on the underrepresentation
of women faculty members in STEM fields. Could I propose
a research project that addresses tenure-track and family policies?
Answer: No. The GSE program focuses on
the K-16 levels of education and workforce issues, but not faculty
issues. Gender research and implementation of promising practices
at the faculty level are covered substantially by the ADVANCE program
at NSF, so those interested in faculty issues should direct their
efforts to ADVANCE.
Question: If I am
not a social/behavioral scientist or education researcher, may
I still apply to the GSE program?
Answer: Yes, but you are strongly advised to
include a social/behavioral scientist or education researcher as
a Co-PI or on the research team. Your proposal will be reviewed
by social/behavioral scientists and education researchers and will
be assessed in comparison to other social/behavioral science and
education research proposals. Major emphasis in the review
will be on theory and methods used.
Question: I want to develop a new course in Computer Science
that would incorporate gender neutral/friendly/equitable practices
into the curriculum. Would that fall under the scope of
the GSE program?
Answer: No. The GSE program does not fund
course or curriculum development. Please refer to the NSF's
Course, Curriculum and Laboratory Improvement (CCLI) program (http://www.nsf.gov/funding/pgm_summ.jsp?pims_id=5741&org=DUE&from=home)
or the Broadening Participation in Computing (BPC) program for
funding opportunities in course or curriculum improvement.
Question: I want to make a documentary about women scientists,
their lives and work. Would that be appropriate for Outreach
and Communication?
Answer: No. Outreach and communication
grants are meant to publicize research findings that inform efforts
to mitigate the underrepresentation of women in certain fields. Biographies
(film or print) about women scientists are out of scope with the
GSE solicitation at this time.
Question: I run a very successful intervention for girls
and would like to broaden the number of girls involved by managing
new projects in several locations. Would this be appropriate
for Extension Services?
Answer: No. Extension services are a "train-the-trainer" model
of outreach and communication of promising practices. Extension
services proposals should not include direct interventions for
women or girls. Rather, extension services should focus on
a "unified program of change" that is delivered through
training to a group of practitioners. Extension service agents
should then provide support to those practitioners as they implement
the program, and evaluate the effectiveness of the training. The
extension services idea is borrowed from the US Department of Agriculture's
extension service agents, who serve as expert intermediaries between
researchers and farmers. Extension service agents inform
farmers about practices that show promise at increasing corn yields,
for example, and serve as experts when questions arise. Extension
service agents also bring back to researchers the experiences of
practitioners in the field so that more investigations may be conducted
on pressing issues and implementation anomalies. In that
way, a feedback loop is created among practitioners, researchers
and extension agents focused on research-based innovation and change. Our
version of extension services is meant to adopt this successful
model in an education context to work toward effecting change in
the underrepresentation of women and girls in STEM fields on a
larger scale than one-time interventions.
Question: I am interested in the underrepresentation of
boys and/or men of color in STEM fields. Could I propose
a research project where the research questions of interest involve
Answer: Yes, as long as the project incorporates
some comparison to women/girls or some element of interaction between
boys and girls, and addresses underrepresented groups. Those
interested in doing research on boys or men of color in STEM are
strongly advised to speak with the program officer first about
their ideas before submitting a preliminary or full proposal.
Question: My question is not in this list and is not answered
in the solicitation. What should I do?
Answer: Send e-mail to: firstname.lastname@example.com
Question: What type(s) of inter-organizational collaborations
is NSF encouraging?
Answer: The GSE Program expects that proposers
will put together the best team possible to carry out the project. The
GSE program especially encourages research intensive and extensive
universities to partner with other types of colleges and universities,
especially 2-year colleges and institutions serving underrepresented
minority populations.
Question: If multiple organizations are cooperating in
the proposed project, what are the mechanisms for submitting
a proposal?
Answer: NSF has two mechanisms for submission
of proposals from multiple organizations: as a single proposal,
in which a single award is being requested with subawards administered
by the lead organization to partnering organizations; or as collaborative
proposals submitted simultaneously from different organizations,
with each organization requesting a separate award (although the
total budget for all collaborators should not exceed the maximum
award size designated in the program solicitation for a single
project). In either case, the lead organization's proposal
must contain all of the requisite sections as a single package
to be provided to reviewers (that will happen automatically when
FastLane procedures are followed). All collaborative proposals
must clearly describe the roles to be played by the participating
organizations, specify the managerial arrangements, and explain
the advantages of the multi-organizational effort within the project
description. These collaborative proposals are described more fully
in Section II.D.3 of the NSF Grant Proposal Guide (GPG)
(http://www.nsf.gov/publications/pub_sum.jsp?ods_key=gpg). The
GPG also includes instructions for submission of these types of
Question: What needs to be included in the Project Summary?
Answer: The NSF Grant Proposal Guide (GPG)
(available at
http://nsf.gov/publications/pub_summ.jsp?ods_key=gpg) specifies
that the Project Summary must clearly address, in separate statements
within the one-page limit and font restrictions, both the Broader
Impacts and the Intellectual Merit of
the proposed activity. Proposals that do not address both
merit-review criteria in separate statements in the project summary
will be returned without review. The GPG also states that the broader
impacts must be addressed in the Project Description and described
as an integral part of the narrative. This requirement is
in effect for both full and preliminary proposals.
Question: Do citations and references count against the
Project Description page limit?
Answer: No. They should be included in the References
Cited section of the proposal.
Question: What about the 5-page preliminary proposals? Should
they include references, and do those count against the 5-page
project description?
Answer: References should
be included in preliminary proposals. It is important for the reviewers to assess the
intellectual merit of the preliminary proposal by understanding
the theory and methodological traditions (yours and other's)
on which the research will be building. References should
be included in the References Cited section of the proposal, and
do not count against the 5-page limit.
Question: If I did not submit a preliminary proposal for
Research or Extension Services, may I still submit a full proposal?
Answer: No, preliminary proposals are required
for Research and Extension Services proposals.
Question: I see a deadline for preliminary proposals
for Research and Extension services, but not one for Outreach
and Communication Proposals. Should I submit a preliminary
proposal for Outreach and Communication anyway?
Answer: No. There are no preliminary proposals
required for Outreach and Communication proposals. Simply
submit a full proposal by the full proposal deadline.
Answer: Send e-mail to: firstname.lastname@example.com.
Question: Should I submit proposals via FastLane or Grants.gov?
Answer: Proposers may opt to submit proposals
via Grants.gov or via NSF's FastLane system. A guide
to submitting proposals via Grants.gov is available on the NSF
web site at http://www.nsf.gov/publications/pub_summ.jsp?ods_key=grantsgovguide.
At this time, all collaborative proposals must still be submitted
via FastLane only.
Question: May I submit the same proposal to GSE and to
another NSF program?
Answer: No. A unique proposal can be submitted
only once to NSF. If the proposal is a duplicate of or substantially
similar to a proposal already under consideration by NSF, it will
be returned without review.
Question: Can I request an extension of time to submit
a proposal?
Answer: No.
Question: What if FastLane or my university computer is
unavailable on the submission deadline?
Answer: Please avoid this problem by submitting
early. If you choose not to submit until the last minute, it is
at your own risk.
Question: What if there is an earthquake, fire or other
Answer: Please contact us at firstname.lastname@example.com immediately.
We will make determinations on a case-by-case basis.
Question: How do we submit supplementary documents?
Answer: Supplementary documents that are in accordance
with the solicitation and the GPG should be scanned into the Special
Information and Supplementary Documentation section of the FastLane
Question: Is there a limit to the amount of funds I can
request for my proposal?
Answer: The GSE solicitation outlines the maximum
award sizes for each type of proposal. Research proposals
may request up to $500,000 for three years; Outreach and Communication
proposals may request up to $200,000 for two years; and Extension
Services proposals may request up to $2.5 million dollars for five
Question: Can funds be used for graduate student stipends
or tuition waivers?
Answer: Yes, GSE proposals may request support
in all the usual NSF budget categories.
Question: When will the announcement of the grant awards
be made, and how soon afterward would you expect a project to
Answer: We plan to communicate with successful
applicants by July and expect awards under this solicitation to
be made by end of summer. Grantees would have some flexibility
in when they actually start their grant-supported activities; you
should request a starting date that makes most sense to you. That
is one item that can be negotiated if necessary after the proposal
has been reviewed.
Question: May I be a member of a panel that will review
GSE proposals this year?
Answer: The GSE program is always looking to
expand our reviewer pool. If you are on
a GSE proposal submitted this year, then you cannot be a panelist
this year. If you did not submit a GSE proposal this year in response
to the current solicitation, you may volunteer to be a panelist.
If you want to volunteer, notify the program officer. Include a
URL for your biosketch and a brief description of your research
expertise in your e-mail. The program officer will contact you
if your area of expertise is relevant and we need panelists in
that area. Please send the information to firstname.lastname@example.com.

11/27/2010, Mag Bay
It's amazing how fast a nice relaxing sail can turn into your worst nightmare. About 7 hours after leaving Asuncion, we were sailing on a beam reach out of the East (which should have been our first clue) and at midnight we noticed the winds picking up. We had heard that there was a Santa Anna going to blow but the grib files showed that the winds at sea would be 15 knots as well as the Don Anderson report say that we should have a great sail south. By 1am we were 30 miles off shore and in gale force winds and the seas were building. We put a second reef in the main and half an hour later we put in the third reef. With the main reefed to it's 3rd reef and the staysail up, we were still doing over 6.5 knots. The seas got bigger and bigger and started breaking and foaming. The winds were screaming through the rigging and we knew it was a Gale! We don't have an anometer (or however you spell that, it's a wind speed reading instrument) (no Bob we didn't go out on deck and use the hand held one you gave it only went to 30 miles an hour). But based on the sea state with the breaking waves and foaming seas with the foam flying off in streaks, we looked at the Beaufort scale and it was a Gale 34 to 40 knots. Ian and Les were amazing as they stayed out in the cockpit spelling each other off while the other tried to doze and get some rest. Down below, I was seasick and my friend Pat was dressed in all of her foul weather gear and lifejacket an prepared for the worst while studying the abandon ship procedures. The boat was being hit by waves that sent us over several times not a knockdown, but pushed violently back and forth. But good ole Kasasa stood up to it and came back right up over and over. She proved her seaworthiness. At about 4:30am we were all very tired and Ian decided it was time to heave to (no not lose our cookies over the side, it means to arrange your sails in such a way that you turn into the waves and your boat just rides up and down without moving very much and it gives you a chance to rest). Pat and I were on the floor bracing ourselves inside the boat ready for the change of course taking us into the winds. Of course once Ian turned into the wind, the shackle on the staysail broke and the sheets came off and now the sail was useless to use to heave to. Les got the sail down, and Ian continued with heaving to but we were only able to lay ahull which was really comfortable none the less. So for 2 hours we stayed that way and finally the winds began to ease. By 7am the winds were down to 25 knots according to the handheld wind reading thingamiggy and we continued on our way, and by 10am the seas had started to calm down as well. Thank god that was over. But the good news is we got through it and the boat performed as she should. We can laugh about it now but at the time it was an intense situation. Our second night out was a non event with very light winds and no action what so ever. We made a quick stop in Baha Santa Maria where we met up with the boat that had our missing laundry items and we had their's. An exchange was made and we were on our way. But first a Mexican fishing boat came up to us and sold us some lobster. We arrived in Mag Bay around 4pm and are now happily anchored and having a great dinner of lobster and salad what more could we ask for...

11/25/2010, 20 miles south of Asuncion
We left Turtle Bay on Wednesday the 24th enroute to Asuncion which is 50 miles south. We had light and variable winds for the first 3 or 4 hours and then around noon they steadied out on a NE direction at about 15 knots. Nice. As the afternoon progressed, so did our boat speed and the size of the swells. Around 2 we put in a reef (for my non sailing friends and family, a reef is a way to make you sail smaller and therefore you have more control of the boat, kinda like putting on the brakes) as we were hitting speeds of over 7 knots and the wind was still building. Our friends Les and Pat really enjoyed the sail as they are both sailboat racers on the Kootney lakes and don't often get to see those kinds of waves. Around 2:30 we put in the second reef and with the staysail and the double reefed main we raced along on a good sail at a comfortable 6 to 6.5 knots the rest of the day. We arrived at our destination just as the sun was setting and got the anchor down as darkness fell. We seem to be good at arriving in the dark which is not such a great thing to do. After a lazy morning on the boat we went ashore to explore the small town. Mostly it was dusty and dry, but the people were quite friendly and we found a nice family run restaraunt to have some fish tacos and a cerveza. Cost us a whole 4 dollars each including the tip. We decided to head out on the next leg of our trip once we got back to the boat. We upped anchor at 4pm and set off in about 12 knots on the beam.... nice! It only lasted about an hour and died so we have to use the engine again. At the moment as I write this, Ian is on watch and I am up next. Pat and Les are asleep and all is good. We are motorsailing in light winds. Our next destination which is Magdalena Bay or Mag Bay, is 178 miles from Asuncion. We hope we timed it right to arrive in the daylight this time. We are actually on a quest at the moment for our 'clean' laundry that got given to another cruiser in Turtle Bay. We had taken our laundry in to town to have done (there is no laundry mat) and about an hour later another cruiser took theirs in. We had talked with the other cruisers at the internet cafe and found out their names and boat name etc. Next morning our laundry gets delivered to us by panga as well as the other boats laundry too. Well wouldn't you know it they were leaving right away and we had planned to stay one more day. By the time we went through our laundry and sorted out on our boat who's was who's we realized we had a pair of pants and a tshirt that wasn't ours. And we were missing 3 pair of pants and 2 socks! I tried to hail the other boat on the VHF and finally got them when they were already 9 miles out. They hadn't checked their laundry yet and hadn't realized the mix up. They told us if we don't run into each other they will leave it with a port captain in Mag Bay or Cabo. So we are on the hunt so to speak for them. Just another day in the life of a cruising sailboat.
We had a very calm comfortable ride to Turtle Bay from Ensenada. We were able to sail for a couple of hours each day in the afternoon in light winds and flat seas. Because the winds were so light the seas were smooth. It made the trip very easy in some ways, but we did have to endure listening to the engine for hours on end. But that was okay as we were making good time to our destination.
Because of the full moon, the nights were clear and we could even see the dolphins swimming around the boat at times. We actually saw a fair bit of wildlife on this trip, grey whales, pilot whales, sunfish, lots of dolphins several times a day, and lots of birdlife.
We arrived at 11pm at Turtle Bay but with the light of the moon, we were able to easily navigate our way in oh yeah with the help of the radar too!
Since we arrived, we have walked around the town which is a small fishing village and the roads are just dirt roads. It is not a tourist town by any means. But it is pleasant and the people are friendly and they are used to cruisers here as they off lots of services such as delivery of fuel and water to your boat. And they have an internet cafe which is where I am typing this from.
We are planning to leave tomorrow if the weather looks good. We are going to do a short hop to a small bay which I can´t spell so I won´t try but it´s about a 48 mile trip.
We are really enjoying the company of our good friends Pat and Les from Rossland BC who are with us for a couple of weeks. Makes the long passages go by really fast when you have extra people on board.
We are still seeking the warm weather as we need to wear our warm coats, hats and gloves at night when out sailing. We hear that by the time you get to Mag Bay another 200 miles south it really starts to warm up. I know nobody at home is feeling sorry for us because we saw that you have snow up there in Vancouver. Brrrrr.....
11/19/2010, 2 hundred miles north of Turtle Bay
Yesterday we had an interesting day. We left Ensenada at 8:30am and motored out into calm conditions. Out went the fishing rods and we settled in for a long motor unles the winds pick up. Around 11am, we decided to start cooking some lunch. At about this same time, there was a Mexican Navy boat that seemed to have taken an interest in us. He was going back and forth around us. Pat was down below cooking and Les and I were in the cockpit and Ian had just gone forward to rig the new lightwind sail we just bought in San Diego. Then we get a call on the VHF radio from the Navy boat to cease navigation as they were going to come aboard. So for over half an hour we sat there getting rocked around in the swells as we waited for them to launch there small boat and come and board us. We decided to hold off on our lunch as we thought it would be rude to be sitting there eating when they arrived. Finally they got to the boat with about 10 guys 5 of which were carrying big guns. These five came on board and 4 of them stayed up on deck and the head guy came below with Ian and I. We gave him our documents for the boat our check in and check out papers for Ensenada, and our passports of course. He was a very soft spoken and very polite man who looked to be in his early 20's. He asked us a few questions and had us sign a form that they had boarded us and then they were on there way. We don't really know the reason for the visit but they didn't look around or anything. Maybe they thought we were drug runners until they saw the 4 of us and realized we were just 4 ordinary people and didn't fit the profile. Anyhow it was somewhat interesting and I never felt at all threatened or worried. So we carried on from that episode using our new sail and were doing about 3 to 4 knots. Later the winds got stronger and we pulled the new sail down and out came the jib. Just around sunset while Les was on watch, he noticed a line on the radar screen which seemed to be approaching us. We figured it must be a front or a squall or something. We decided to wait before serving dinner in case all hands were needed on deck if something was coming through. Well when it finally go to us it turned out to be fog. I didn't know that the radar would pick up fog. It wasn't even heavy fog. So we settled in for the night, and by 8pm we were motoring again as the winds had died to almost nothing and what there was was moving around and coming and going. By this morning it had switched to on the nose. We have seen a few dolphins, a couple of whales off in the distance, several fishing boats and one sailboat. That is about it for now. We hope to arrive in Turtle Bay on Sunday.
Congrats on Mexico! The air and water will just keep getting warmer as you head south. The Mexican navy thing seems pretty common. Full & By were boarded in the same area as you. We were boarded as we approached La Paz. Have fun in Turtle Bay! There is a great beach just to the east of the anchorage. Nice place for a walk. Hope to see you in the Sea. We will be here until early January.
11/17/2010, Ensenada Mexico
So we made it to Mexico! A dream has been realized after 15 + years of planning and saving. We left San Diego at 3am on November 16 at 1:30 am in the fog. We left in the middle of the night so that we would arrive in Ensenada during daylight hours. We motored in fog all through the night which cleared up during the day. There was no wind so we motored all the way 65 miles. We arrive in Ensenada at 3pm which was too late to go to clear customs but we were told at the marina that we had 48 hours to clear in so we were free to roam around town.
With us on board were our good friends Pat and Les from Rossland, BC. We enjoyed a yummy seafood dinner and then were back at the boat and asleep before (get this) 8pm. We had not had much sleep the night before during our passage as we were all too excited to be heading south to Mexico.
This morning we were up early and did a few chores like dropping off our laundry and such and then headed to immigration to do all of our paperwork. Roger at Bahi Naval, our marina was extreamly helpful and before we went to immigration, he helped us with organizing and copying our documents as well as talking us through the procedure. When we got there, there was no line up and it took us about 2 hours to do it all. It's all in one building and you just go from one desk to the next and it all gets done Mexican style. So now we are legal and our boat has it's TIP (temporary Import Permit) which is good for 10 years. This allows us to bring parts in duty free for the boat should we need to.
We still need to do the HAM radio license thing but can't do that here. Also we want to apply for a FM3 which is a visa which we can stay in Mexico for more than the 180 days which we have at the moment.
After that we did our provisioning for the next week or so and now we are just hanging out at the dock until tomorrow morning when we will untie the lines and head even further south. Destination unknown. We are just going to see how the winds are, how we feel and decide if we want to stop somewhere or keep going. No hurry! No Rush! Manana Kasasa. We get there when we get there!
Take care my cousin, love you lots
Retirement - three thumbs up.
(I always thought that installment had two els. oh well you learn something new every day)
All the best Riley and Ellllllaine.
11/12/2010, San Diego
On Wednesday I was having one of those days where things keep going wrong. First off I woke up to an alarm on the boat going off that was not an alarm clock. That was quickly remedied as it was the sensor in the bilge which occasionally goes off for no reason. So now I'm up and trying to use the hot water which is an on demand system which works with propane. The pilot light won't light. So Ian gets to work on it and I decided to skype my sister in Toronto. A few minutes into our conversation, my computer freezes up and I restart only to have the same thing happen a few minutes later. So I decide to go up to the laundry room at the marina where the internet connection is the strongest. Once I'm up there and start up my computer all I get is a striped blue and black screen. I try to restart about 5 times and get the same thing each time.
Great whats that all about. I locate a Mac Store in Chula Vista and make an appointment to take my computer in. The guy working on it runs a diagnostic test and it is the mother board or something big like that and the cost of the part before labour is $1189 dollars! @#$#@# I could buy a new computer for that. But the guy tells me that there may be a chance depending on the date my computer was manufactured that the part could be replaced free of charge due to a faulty part that was installed in that time frame. So he goes deeper into the diagnostic and BINGO! I won! I get the part and the labour for FREE!! I was so happy I high fived the guy and would have hugged him had there not been a counter between us.
So I explain my situation that I live on a boat have no car and need to get my computer back asap. No problem they had it ready the next day! Wow such service and for free.
So I'm lucky on a few counts with this one. The free fix obviously, but also that it happened the week before we leave for Mexico and not while we are there. I'm not sure where I would even find a Mac store except maybe in the larger cities like Mexico City. And I never lost any of my data!
So for now I am going to baby my mac by shutting down each day and making sure its in it's case at night and when I'm not using it. Even though we have let go of so many things like our home, our cars and our jobs, getting rid of my computer habit would be really really hard. And besides how would I blog...
We are at Marina de La Paz. The weather is superb. Mid to high 20s every day. Are you getting to La Paz this winter?

Watch An Exclusive Clip From Sundance Selection SHOPPING
New Zealand directors Mark Albiston and Louis Sutherland made an instant fan of me with their 2009 short The Six Dollar Fifty Man, a gem that perfectly captures both the wonder and imagination of being a child and the darkness that comes with being a child raised in difficult circumstances. And the duo is going back to that same territory with their debut feature, the Sundance selected comedy-drama Shopping.
Twitch is proud to present the first clip from the film, one that should appeal immensely to fans of Son Of Rambow and Boy while also feeling far more grounded. Check it below.Living in New Zealand in 1981 amid high racial tension, Willie, a half-Samoan teenager, is coming into his own. With an unpredictable father, Willie spends most of his time working at a department store or taking care of his little brother, Solomon. A chance encounter at work with an eccentric and charming "shopper" named Bennie lures Willie into a world without rules. As Willie begins to find a place in Bennie's reckless nest of criminals, Solomon grows increasingly vulnerable to their father's violent tendencies.

Electronic payment deadline looms for federal benefit checks
Tens of thousands of Oklahomans who receive federal benefits have yet to switch from paper checks to electronic payments, although the deadline to do so is less than two weeks away.
The U.S. Treasury Department reported Tuesday that it still processes about 54,000 monthly Social Security and Supplemental Security Income payments for Oklahomans via paper check. The federal government is giving seniors and other federal benefit recipients until March 1 to switch to direct bank deposit or to the Direct Express card — a prepaid debit card that allows recipients to pay bills, withdraw cash and make purchases without check cashing fees.
The Treasury already processes more than 777,000 monthly Social Security and Supplemental Security Income payments for Oklahomans electronically.
"By switching to direct deposit or the Direct Express card, you will receive your money in a safer, easier and more reliable way," David Lebryk, commissioner of the Treasury Department's Financial Management Service, said in a statement. "With electronic payments, your check can't be stolen out of your mailbox, and you don't need to go to the bank or credit union to deposit or cash your check every month. It's in your account on time, every time."
Eliminating paper checks and switching benefit payments to electronic transfers will save taxpayers $1 billion over the next 10 years, the Treasury estimates.
Check recipients can sign up for direct deposit or the Direct Express card by calling (800) 333-1795, visiting their local federal paying agency office, or GoDirect.org.

A Revived Zeppelin Eyes Downtown Spot

Ah, the humanity! Zeppelin may have exploded at its West 9th Street moorings, but the spinoff bar and restaurant from the Employees Only guys has been patched up and is floating west and south, down to an area below Houston Street on the West Side. Owner Jason Kosmas wouldn't give the exact location for fear of jinxing the lease. "The Zeppelin project has lots of new life and new enthusiasm," he says. "We gave back the keys on 9th Street, and the feeling was somewhat bad at the end, but now we're looking at two spaces in that Village-border area, and we feel really good about them." Any speculation about the possible new home of Zeppelin can and should be filed in the comments department. Broad hints are especially welcome.

The Hardest Working Man in the Local Jazz Scene Celebrates 12 Years of Jazz Mafia
When it comes to jazz, Adam Theis can't and most certainly won't stop. The multi-instrumentalist (horns, electric bass, bass, tuba, and trumpet) and his much praised jazz collective The SF Jazz Mafia (named SF Weekly's best weekly music night multiple times) have had a busy run in the past few years. In 2010, the group, headed by Theis, debuted their heavily lauded symphony entitled "Brass, Bows, & Beats," a stunning effort in the field of hip-hop-meets-classical (yes, such a thing does exist). Theis' hip-hop credentials don't end there—he has been known to work with rap luminaries as the legendary KRS-ONE and Bay Area hip-hop stalwarts Hieroglyphics.

Kim has made significant progress since then—Yosemite National Park, The Smithsonian, and the San Francisco Conservatory of Flowers are just some of the many places that have commissioned her work.

Two Childhood Rashes That Could Be Dangerous
Parents should always be concerned when their child develops an unexplained rash. This article discusses two rashes that could cause serious complications. The first rash is caused by Roseola.
Rash Caused By Roseola
Roseola or Roseola Infantum is usually considered to be a minor illness. This viral illness is quite common in infants and appears only occasionally in adults. It is caused by strains of the herpes virus. The first symptom is a rise in temperature. This will be quite sudden and the temperature can be up to 103 degrees. The fever may last for several days before the rash appears. The rash is rosy pink and appears on the chest, arms, neck and torso. The rash spots may be surrounded by a border of white. They may be flat or raised. In many cases, the disease is so mild and the rash so faint as to be almost invisible. In some cases there may be some diarrhea, fatigue, and vomiting usually caused by the fever.
If the fever is mild, it can be treated at home by administering lots of liquids. If the child seems uncomfortable, you can, with your doctor's approval, give infant doses of acetaminophen or ibuprofen. Never give aspirin to anyone under twenty-one year of age, as it can cause Ryes syndrome, a potentially deadly condition.
The Roseola rash itself does not cause any discomfort to the child. The danger lies in the high temperature. As it comes on quite suddenly and rises rapidly, it can cause seizures. Seizures can cause unconsciousness and flailing limbs. If you child has any seizures, see you physician immediately. It is also wise to see your physician if the temperature lasts more than seven day and if the rash does not disappear completely in about three days.
Since Roseola is a contagious disease, it can be spread to anyone who comes in contact with the victim. Those with compromised immune systems are most likely victims. These people will find it harder to fight the infection and may develop more serious complications including pneumonia and encephalitis.
The best way to protect yourself and others is to wash hands regularly and keep your child away from others who are ill. If your child has Roseola, keep him/her at home until symptoms pass. Protect those in the home who are elderly or ill.
Rash Caused By Fifth Disease
The second rash is caused by Fifth Disease (erythema infectiosum). It is a mild viral illness whose main symptom is a red lacy rash on the face, legs, arms, torso, and buttocks. The rash may come and go for several weeks, seemingly in response to sunshine and heat. It is also called slapped-face disease because the rash on the cheeks become excessively red. There may also be a slight fever at the onset of the disease.
Fifth disease occurs mostly in young children but can be seen at any age. The best treatment is to keep the child comfortable and watch for any significant rise in temperature. The disease will usually run its course and all symptoms will disappear on their own. Fifth disease is however contagious so patients should be kept indoors, away from the elderly and ill. As long as the rash is present, the disease is contagious.
Unless accompanied by high fever, Fifth Disease is usually harmless to children. However, adults who contact the disease, may develop swollen, aching joints. Again those with compromised immune systems are in greatest danger.
Anyone with Fifth Disease should not be in contact with pregnant woman, as the virus can infect an unborn child, where, in a small percent of cases it can cause death.
Remember that viral infections do not respond to antibiotics. The best treatment for both Roseola and Fifth Disease are rest, lots of fluids, and acetaminophen of ibuprofen, in doses prescribed by your family physician.
