Long term unemployment is now Australia’s most difficult and costly labour market problem. This paper argues the case for a different policy reorientation to what has been followed in the past. The first conclusion is that in the absence of a substantial reorientation of policy long term unemployment will remain very high, with the absolute number staying above the level inherited from the 1982/83 recession — which was until the current recession the highest in Australian history. Second, the equity and macroefficiency costs of not doing anything radically different are argued to be very high.
A final part of the analysis considers the fundamental challenge of the Job Compact policy suggestion made in the Government’s Green Paper on unemployment. However, the way in which the policy is to be instituted needs attention. It is likely that the use of the current JOBSTART wage subsidy scheme will not be enough to achieve the desired outcomes.

Objective:
The COVID-19 pandemic presented a challenge to established seed grant funding mechanisms aimed at fostering collaboration in child health research between investigators at the University of Minnesota (UMN) and Children’s Hospitals and Clinics of Minnesota (Children’s MN). We created a “rapid response,” small grant program to catalyze collaborations in child health COVID-19 research. In this paper, we describe the projects funded by this mechanism and metrics of their success.
Methods:Using seed funds from the UMN Clinical and Translational Science Institute, the UMN Medical School Department of Pediatrics, and the Children’s Minnesota Research Institute, a rapid response request for applications (RFAs) was issued based on the stipulations that the proposal had to: 1) consist of a clear, synergistic partnership between co-PIs from the academic and community settings; and 2) that the proposal addressed an area of knowledge deficit relevant to child health engendered by the COVID-19 pandemic.
Results:Grant applications submitted in response to this RFA segregated into three categories: family fragility and disruption exacerbated by COVID-19; knowledge gaps about COVID-19 disease in children; and optimizing pediatric care in the setting of COVID-19 pandemic restrictions. A series of virtual workshops presented research results to the pediatric community. Several manuscripts and extramural funding awards underscored the success of the program.
Conclusions:A “rapid response” seed funding mechanism enabled nascent academic-community research partnerships during the COVID-19 pandemic. In the context of the rapidly evolving landscape of COVID-19, flexible seed grant programs can be useful in addressing unmet needs in pediatric health.

Medical recruitment and retention are national problems. Psychiatry has been more affected than many specialties, as a result of stigma from the public and other healthcare professionals. The Royal College of Psychiatrists has undertaken several initiatives to redress this, notably the ‘Choose Psychiatry’ campaign. In this editorial we argue that student-led university psychiatry societies are a wonderful but frequently untapped resource to help attract the brightest and best medical students to our profession. We describe the activities of three ‘Psych Socs’ across the UK and propose next steps to continue this work.

We report on the analysis of virtual powder-diffraction patterns from serial femtosecond crystallography (SFX) data collected at an X-ray free-electron laser. Different approaches to binning and normalizing these patterns are discussed with respect to the microstructural characteristics which each highlights. Analysis of SFX data from a powder of Pr0.5Ca0.5MnO3 in this way finds evidence of other trace phases in its microstructure which was not detectable in a standard powder-diffraction measurement. Furthermore, a comparison between two virtual powder pattern integration strategies is shown to yield different diffraction peak broadening, indicating sensitivity to different types of microstrain. This paper is a first step in developing new data analysis methods for microstructure characterization from serial crystallography data.

Summary
INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND
Several contemporary Asian economies, including China, Vietnam and Indonesia, have two major things in common: unusually rapid economic growth, and significant expansions of their higher education enrolment and graduation rates. The association between economic growth and growth in higher education is both easy to understand and multi-faceted: as GDP per capita increases, so too does the demand for higher education, with this growth in the skill base of the labour force itself facilitating the economic growth that has helped generate the higher demand for university places. The processes are clearly endogenous.
Many of these economies share another and darker characteristic, which is that they have poorly developed financing systems for higher education. This is an emerging issue for policy because it implies that, even quite soon, the impressive economic growth of the transitional Asian economies could face important constraints with respect to the required expansions in higher education. The most pessimistic of these assessments would allude to the possibility of a country being caught in a ‘middle-income trap’, through the incapacity of its education system to meet the ever-increasing demand for a better-educated labour force.
As far as Indonesia is concerned, it would seem obvious that in order to meet the rising demand for higher education while enhancing quality with limited resources, greater cost sharing with students through increases in tuition fees is unavoidable. It is well known that the only equitable and efficient way to collect significant contributions from students is through the use of a student loan system (Friedman 1955; Chapman 2006), but it is also apparent that Indonesian higher education lacks a well-designed and universal financing mechanism. This chapter explores the implications of the adoption in Indonesia of student loan reforms.
Our approach is to ask, if Indonesia adopted the type of student loan system that is most often used around the world, would this provide a solid foundation to help prevent the growth rates of university enrolments and graduations from stalling? This type of higher education financing system involves government-backed loans provided by banks. It is known as a ‘mortgage-type’ arrangement because loan repayments are made on the basis of pre-determined amounts over a given time period. This is the type of scheme currently used to help finance higher education in many countries, including the United States, Canada, the Philippines and Thailand.

Objective
In 2007 the Australian Division of World Action on Salt and Health (AWASH) launched a campaign to encourage the Australian government to take action to reduce population salt intake. The objective of the present research was to assess the impact of the Drop the Salt! campaign on government policy.
DesignA review of government activities related to salt reduction was conducted and an advocacy strategy implemented to increase government action on salt. Advocacy actions were documented and the resulting outcomes identified. An analysis of stakeholder views on the effectiveness of the advocacy strategy was also undertaken.
SettingsAdvocacy activities were coordinated through AWASH at the George Institute for Global Health in Sydney.
SubjectsAll relevant State and Federal government statements and actions were reviewed and thirteen stakeholders with known interests or responsibilities regarding dietary salt, including food industry, government and health organisations, were interviewed.
ResultsStakeholder analysis affirmed that AWASH influenced the government's agenda on salt reduction and four key outputs were attributed to the campaign: (i) the Food Regulation Standing Committee discussions on salt, (ii) the Food and Health Dialogue salt targets, (iii) National Health and Medical Research Council partnership funding and (iv) the New South Wales Premier's Forum on Fast Foods.
ConclusionsWhile it is not possible to definitively attribute changes in government policy to one organisation, stakeholder research indicated that the AWASH campaign increased the priority of salt reduction on the government's agenda. However, a coordinated government strategy on salt reduction is still required to ensure that the potential health benefits are fully realised.

In August 1988 an increase was noted in the number of cases of cryptosporidiosis identified by the microbiology laboratory at Doncaster Royal Infirmary. By 31 October, 67 cases had been reported. Preliminary investigations implicated the use of one of two swimming pools at a local sports centre and oocysts were identified in the pool water. Inspection of the pool revealed significant plumbing defects which had allowed ingress of sewage from the main sewer into the circulating pool water. Epidemiological investigation confirmed an association between head immersion and illness. The pools were closed when oocysts were identified in the water and extensive cleaning and repair work was undertaken. The pool water was retested for cryptosporidial oocysts and found to be negative before the pool re-opened.

We have analyzed by radiocarbon 27 consecutive single rings, starting from AD 1952, of a preliminarily cross-dated section (DFR 021) of Pinus radiata, which grew in Armidale, northern New South Wales, Australia. The bomb 14C results suggested the possibility of 2 false rings, and, consequently, 2 misidentified rings in the preliminary count for this section. This possibility was supported by a better ring-width correlation between the revised DFR 021 count and other Pinus radiata chronologies in the study region. This indicated that bomb 14C is a useful tool to complement the standard techniques of dendrochronology in tree species where annual rings are not always clearly defined.

Summary
Introduction
When we make choices, even such everyday choices as how to spend an evening (or what restaurant to choose beforehand, or what mode of transport to use in getting there), we are typically confronted with a plurality of different criteria informing the choice. In choosing, for example, between spending the evening at the movies or at a philosophy lecture, we might have to consider whether on this particular evening we wish to be pleasurably entertained or intellectually challenged. There might also be good reason for considering cost, convenience of parking, and the amount of time involved. Moreover, these various criteria seem to flow from quite different and independent sorts of values. It seems hard to believe that the purely hedonic pleasure involved in watching some action film is really an aspect of a larger philosophical understanding, or that the understanding offered by the philosophy lecture, although pleasurable, is the same kind of pleasure as that offered by the movie. Indeed, it seems likely that the last three considerations mentioned (cost, convenience, time), which are of a more practical nature, will be as much informed by how we might otherwise spend our time and money, that is, by the broad range of very different forms of experience that could be enjoyed beyond the two options mentioned here, and thus that they implicate an even more diverse array of criteria and values than pleasure and understanding.
Plurality, then, is the rule rather than the exception when we make choices.

In an interesting and thoughtful book The Economy of the Earth: Philosophy, Law and the Environment, Mark Sagoff provides us with a sustained critique of the methods used by economists to inform environmental policy and regulation. He debunks the relevance of the efficiency criterion in particular, even when it is supplemented with a concern for equity, and argues that environmental problems are better analyzed in moral, aesthetic, cultural, and political terms. To make this argument, Sagoff relies on four key distinctions. These distinctions, which overlap to some extent, are drawn between: (1) the citizen and the consumer, (2) values and preferences, (3) public and private interests, and (4) virtues and methods.

Summary
Twenty years ago, living microorganisms were named and classified on the basis of their morphology and physiology. This worked well for closely related taxa, but the higher level relationships between very distant lineages remained obscure because too few homologous characters were available for analysis. This situation changed dramatically in the 1980s following the invention of rapid and efficient methods for sequencing proteins and nucleic acids (both DNA and RNA). Suddenly, large numbers of homologous characters (single amino acids or single nucleotides) became available for comparison between closely and distantly related taxa. A concomitant development of computer-based methods for analyzing the new data (Section 9.2) has led to the production of “phylogenetic trees” which are designed to display, in a graphical way, the genealogical relationships between taxa at the tips of their branches. The same molecular methods have now been applied to representatives of most kinds of living organisms and they complement formal cladistic analyses based primarily upon shared-derived (synapomorphic) morphological characters.
These new methods have enabled a second approach to historical biology. The molecular comparisons may, in principle, produce information about the history of organisms with no fossil record. For example, colorful, tropical, soft-bodied molluscs known as nudibranchs are unknown as fossils. When did they first evolve? Molecular methods can provide an answer.
For Precambrian paleobiology the applications are obvious. However, the proportion of species with living descendants diminishes as one moves further backwards in time.

From earliest times it has been recognized that there are situations in which it is inappropriate to hold someone criminally liable despite his apparent violation of the law. Such situations are said to excuse the accused from his wrongdoing. In the Nichomachean Ethics, for example, Aristotle claims that “any sensible man” would throw another’s goods overboard in a storm if such an action was necessary to save both himself and his crew. And in Leviathan, Hobbes remarks that “If a man by the terrour of present death, be compelled to doe a fact against the Law, he is totally Excused; because no Law can oblige a man to abandon his own preservation”.
