Britain has never had an astronaut train through ESA because its funding covers only robotic missions and ground-based astronomy./pp"There's a strong student interest," Hoffman said. "If Britain continues with that policy, these students will still be able to work in other capacities at the European Space Agency."/ppHoffman will draw attention to the future exploration of the solar system, which is likely to see humans working alongside robotic rovers that could be sent out from a moonbase to conduct experiments at remote sites. /ppThe Leicester course begins as the UK prepares for a high-level meeting of European science ministers, at which human space exploration will be discussed./ppMartin Barstow, head of physics and astronomy at Leicester, said: "I'm fed up with the way the UK keeps dodging the issue of being involved in human spaceflight. Our students don't need to be loaded with that baggage. /pp"They still have aspirations to be astronauts and they still want to get involved in the space industry, so why should the UK government's attitude be a handicap?"/pdiv style="float: left; margin-right: 10px; margin-bottom: 10px;"ullia href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/science/spaceexploration"Space exploration/a/lilia href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/technology/spacetechnology"Space technology/a/lilia href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/education/highereducation"Higher education/a/li/ul/divdiv class="guRssAdvert"a href="http://ads.guardian.co.uk/click.ng/richmedia=yessite=Sciencecountry=(none)spacedesc=rsssystem=rsstransactionID=1227317660410112201400459684"img src="http://ads.guardian.co.uk/image.ng/richmedia=yessite=Sciencecountry=(none)spacedesc=rsssystem=rsstransactionID=1227317660410112201400459684" border="0" //a/diva href="http://www.guardian.co.uk"guardian.co.uk/a copy; Guardian News Media Limited 2008 | Use of this content is subject to our a href="http://users.guardian.co.uk/help/article/0,,933909,00.html"Terms Conditions/a | a href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/webfeeds/1,,1309488,00.html"More Feeds/a

Within seconds a painful tingling began, and there was an unusual smell as the skin of 16-year-old Atifa Biba began to burn. /ppHer friend rushed over to help her, struggling to wipe the liquid away, when she too was showered with acid. She covered her face, crying out for help as they sprayed her again, trying to aim the acid into her face. The weapon was a water bottle containing battery acid; the result was at least one girl blinded and two others permanently disfigured. Their only crime was attending school. /ppIt was not an isolated incident. For women and girls across Afghanistan, conditions are worsening - and those women who dare to publicly oppose the traditional order now live in fear for their lives./ppThe Afghan MP Shukria Barakzai receives regular death threats for speaking out on women's issues. Talking at her home in central Kabul, she closed the living room door as her three young daughters played in the hall. "You can't imagine what it feels like as a mother to leave the house each day and not know if you will come back again," she said, her eyes welling up as she spoke./pp"But there is no choice. I would rather die for the dignity of women than die for nothing. Should I stop my work because there is a chance I might be killed? I must go on, and if it happens it happens."/ppBarakzai receives frequent but cryptic warnings about planned suicide attacks on her car, but no help from the government. Officials advise her to stay at home and not go to work, but offer nothing in the way of security assistance, despite her requests. She said warlords in parliament who received similar threats were immediately provided with armoured vehicles, armed guards and a safe house by the government./ppAfghan women are feeling increasingly vulnerable as the security situation worsens and a growing number of western and Afghan officials call for the Taliban to join the government./pp"We are very worried that, now the government is talking with the Taliban, our rights will be compromised," said Shinkai Karokhail, an outspoken MP for Kabul. "We must not be the sacrifice by which peace with the Taliban is made."/ppUnder Taliban rule, up until 2001, women were not allowed to work and were forbidden from venturing outside the home without a male escort. /ppAfghan women who defy traditional gender roles and speak out against the oppression of women are routinely subject to threats, intimidation and assassination. An increasingly powerful Taliban regularly attacks projects, schools and businesses run by women. /ppSix weeks ago, Lieutenant-Colonel Malalai Kakar was assassinated in her car on her way to work in Kandahar. She was Afghanistan's highest-ranking female police officer and a fierce defender of women's rights. Only five feet tall, she was known to have beaten men she found to be abusing their wives. Another senior female police officer was killed in the province of Herat in June./ppstrongSafe house/strong/ppTalking to the Guardian at a safe house on the outskirts of Kabul, Mullah Zubiallah Akhond, a Taliban commander from the southern province of Uruzgan, said the group's attacks on women were always political and not based on any desire to target or punish women specifically. /ppHe condemned the acid attack on the group of schoolgirls in Kandahar, and insisted the Taliban were not involved. "We support the education of girls, but separate from boys. We would not attack schoolgirls. We only target those working with the government."/ppThe Taliban's regional commands have varying attitudes toward women, but all those fighting under the Taliban banner are committed to enforcing their interpretation of sharia law, which forbids women from working or leaving the house without a male escort./ppThe Islamist group is just one of the many threats facing Afghanistan's few outspoken female MPs. "Our parliament is a collection of lords," said Barakzai. "Warlords, drug lords, crime lords."/ppIn parliament, she says, she is often greeted with screams of "kill her" when she stands up to speak, and she has had no shortage of personal threats from fellow MPs. /ppThey visit her privately to tell her she will be killed if she continues to speak out on such issues as the right of a woman to have a personal passport (separate from the standard "family passport") or against compulsory virginity tests for young women, and the right of a man to have custody of a child at two years old. It is not only men who oppose women in parliament - both Barakzai and Karokhail have faced obstruction from other female MPs on key women's issues./ppKarokhail said that, of the 68 women in the 249-strong parliament, only five were vocal on women's issues. The majority of women in parliament vote in favour of more traditional legislation that often rules against women's rights./ppSome women now fear the parliament is becoming more conservative towards women. "Talibani ideas are natural among our people, particularly their vision about women," said Barakzai. /ppAccording to Afghan commentators, President Hamid Karzai, desperate to win next year's elections, has been bringing former mujahideen commanders into parliament in the hope they will support him at election time. /ppMost of these former jihadi commanders share the Taliban's ideas about women and are expected to support legislation that will once again limit women's freedom. In addition, according to the Taliban commander, the group has a growing number of MPs in parliament lobbying for their policies./ppIn much of the country, especially rural areas, women remain subservient to the men in their family and rarely venture out of their homes. Even in the relatively liberal capital, Kabul, it is common to see women robed in blue burkas trailing five paces behind their husbands./ppIt is difficult to gauge how the worsening situation in the country is affecting women, but according to a recent study by the UN, some 87% of them suffer abuse in the home. Afghan human rights groups are documenting cases of "honour" killings, forced abortions and rape, and a database is now being constructed by the UN./ppNajla Zewari, who works for the UN's gender and justice unit, believes violence against women is increasing, fuelled by growing frustrations caused by the economic crisis and lack of security. She said there had also been a sharp increase in rapes by men who claimed they could not afford to pay the dowry needed to marry. After the public shame of an attack, the victim is usually outcast and the rapist is then the only man who will have the woman as his wife./ppIt is crimes like this that make many Afghans nostalgic for the harsh justice of Taliban rule. Barakzai countered: "Women were safe, in one sense, under the Taliban - but they were kept as slaves, they were not allowed to do what they wanted even in their own home."/ppAs the Taliban strengthen, the future for women in Afghanistan looks bleaker. Barakzai said women's rights, once heralded as the great success of post-invasion Afghanistan, had been sidelined and might suffer more in the struggle to find a solution to the fighting./ppLast week, a council of 400 women politicians met in Kabul to discuss this possibility and prepare ways to counter it. Karokhail said: "Our biggest fear at the moment is that the return of Talibani ideas to government will wind back the gains we have made in these last years."/pdiv style="float: left; margin-right: 10px; margin-bottom: 10px;"ullia href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/afghanistan"Afghanistan/a/lilia href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/gender"Gender/a/lilia href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/lifeandstyle/women"Women/a/li/ul/divdiv class="guRssAdvert"a href="http://ads.guardian.co.uk/click.ng/richmedia=yessite=Newscountry=(none)spacedesc=rsssystem=rsstransactionID=1227317660269112201400459684"img src="http://ads.guardian.co.uk/image.ng/richmedia=yessite=Newscountry=(none)spacedesc=rsssystem=rsstransactionID=1227317660269112201400459684" border="0" //a/diva href="http://www.guardian.co.uk"guardian.co.uk/a copy; Guardian News Media Limited 2008 | Use of this content is subject to our a href="http://users.guardian.co.uk/help/article/0,,933909,00.html"Terms Conditions/a | a href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/webfeeds/1,,1309488,00.html"More Feeds/a

hey guys, well this is my problem, for the past 3 years straight out of high school I've been in the Marine Corps...this coming september 09, my contract is done and my freedom is restored haha, and I'm planning to go to college using my gi bill and have my education paid 100%. I'm having trouble deciding what I want to major in, I'd like to make money and also enjoy my job. I was thinking Business Management, I'd like to run my own business one day like a bar or club. I do like studio arts, I am also thinking of making that my minor.

If you guys can just give me any type of advice with college and everything that would be great..I really don't know what I'm asking for here but I just dont want to go to college and spend all the time and effort and end up not liking a major i choose. I'd like to have some options of majors you think would work for me.

Something about me...I didn't take highschool seriously because I knew I was going into the military..now that's biting me in the ass cause I know my transcripts aren't exactly up to par. But I can safely say that if I am dedicated to something I can asure you that I can get straight As. I like to make money...yes I'm a money person who isnt. I hate math...maybe its because I haven't done it in 3 years. I like history, I hate anything with science and also like history.

We teamed up with I Set My Friends on Fire to make a hardcore music video about sex ed.

This is Sex Education, not grammar, fool! Chorus: When she gives you affection, you better wear protection That skank might have an infection, are you paying close attention? In Sex Ed, remember what you read Just forget what the others have said get it through your head, use your brain before you go to bed And it takes only one sperm cell to make a baby, And if you think they are cute, then you must be crazy Babies suck because they barf and poo and cry They have the ability to pee in your eye (OH MY GOD IT BURNS!) And did we mention The risk of getting STDs Not just gross hookers have it Even Dennis Rodman could get a bit You don't know who Dennis Rodman is? Well maybe you should watch more basketball Wait a second this is not about sports Quick fact! You can't get girls when you're wearing these shorts Chorus: When she gives you affection, you better wear protection That skank might have an infection, are you paying close attention? In Sex Ed, remember what you read Just forget what the others have said get it through your head, use your brain before you go to bed Your body is growing You will get hairy Your little voice will start to change And your no-no place will feel a bit strange Your pits will stink You'll get zits on your face Without this knowledge you will scare girls away So listen to this song every day

Julie is a teacher down the hall from me. From time to time she and other teachers offer workshops to other teachers after school. Over the past couple of days, she has showed ten colleagues from the science, special education, history, administration and art how to work with PMC, Precious Metal Clay.

Julie talked a bit about the fun of working with PMC as the workshop wound down.

PMC is a quick way to express yourself in metal. You can do everything with it, people are amazed at how easy it is and how quickly they can make something really beautiful. It's not intimidating. I think anyone can do it. You can teach a nine year old how to work creatively with it.

Together they made a whole mess of neat designs with the clay. Some people used molds that Julie made from shells, rocks, coins, buttons and lots of other cool found objects. Some made their own designs by rolling out the PMC and removing or adding material. When the clay dries to its green state, then gets touched up to remove any imperfections and strengthen the shape.

Once they are pretty much dried, they are then fired them in the kiln at high temperature between 1110 - 1830 degrees, depending and a hold time from 10 minutes to 2 hours, depending on the type of metals. When they come out, they look pretty much the same as when they went in, but after they are burnished and sanded, they come out to be a nice silver object.

There are a lot of places to get PMC, mostly from catalogs or online. Julie really speaks highly about her interactions with Whole Lotta Whimsy.

Have you used PMC? Do you have any experiences in teaching creative techniques to people? Post your thoughts in the comments!

p@Laurent : if you don't mind, I'll respond in English, so that other readers can participate too. (and you've managed to read the post, so I guess you can read my comment too img src=/dc-blog/themes/default/smilies/smile.png alt=:-) class=smiley / )/p pYou said that Mozilla needs a simple goal. 'Philosophy' is less relevant than practicality. (I paraphrase but I hope not to over-simplify your message, so bear with me). I think there is some confusion here. emThe goals we're talking about are/em stronggoals for the project and its participants/strong, not the users per se. I understand that many non-developers are more interested in what Mozilla brings them, most likely a cheap (because it's free) browser of high quality (because, well, IE is a bit lagging behind)./p pBut I do think that *contributors* to the Mozilla project are more interested in where Mozilla is going. I'll quote Mitchell in this:/p pgt; (our goals) are aspirational and that's because of the kind of community we are which is thousands of people each making their own decisions as to what's important about the Web and what we want. So the goals are supposed to be something that people can say Yes, that makes sense to me, I want that to happen. I'm going to go out and do X/p pThese goals are to set a direction, and we want them to be exciting. Now Mozilla can do many things. Producing Firefox and Thunderbird are central, and most likely our biggest achievements (and biggest levers to promote our values). But there are many things beyond products./p pAccessibility. Education. Explaining to the World what social hybrid enterprises are about. Work on the privacy issue and many others, including what's maybe the biggest challenge: strongkeeping the Web open/strong./p pAlso, contributors are very diverse. They may have different skills, different motivations. What's important with our goals is to give them the ability to contribute emif/em they want, emthe way they want/em./p pSomething that many people don't get about Mozilla is that we're emvery decentralized/em. We want people to be able to make decision on they area of expertise. Therefore, it's important to set a general direction so that people know how to contribute without asking questions. Also, making the goals exciting is important in order to fuel the enthusiasm of our contributors./p pAlso, I suspect that there are many different topics for which Mozilla can make a difference, most likely related to the Open Web, but not through Firefox and Thunderbird./p

The announcement is expected weeks before the European Space Agency reveals at least four new recruits to its astronaut corps. /ppA British astronaut has never trained through Esa because the UK's funding of space only runs to robotic missions and ground-based astronomy./pp"There's a strong student interest in this despite the fact that the British government has not supported human participation in spaceflight," Hoffman told the Guardian. "If Britain continues with that policy, these students will still be able to work in other capacities at the European Space Agency."/ppHoffman will draw particular attention to the future exploration of the solar system, which is likely to see humans working alongside robotic rovers, which could be sent out from a manned moonbase to conduct experiments at remote sites. /ppThe Leicester course begins as the UK prepares for a high-level meeting of European science ministers at which human space exploration will be discussed./ppMartin Barstow, head of physics and astronomy at Leicester, said: "I'm fed up with the way the UK keeps dodging the issue of being involved in human spaceflight. Our students don't need to be loaded with that baggage. They still have aspirations to be astronauts and they still want to get involved in the space industry, so why should the UK government's attitude be a handicap?/pp"Only a very few people are ever going to become astronauts, even if the UK was fully signed up to human space flight. Most people won't get to do it, but they will become highly qualified physicists and engineers and will get involved in the space industry in different roles. What we want them to come out with is a real grasp of practicalities of living and working in space and what we need to do in the future."/pdiv style="float: left; margin-right: 10px; margin-bottom: 10px;"ullia href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/science/spaceexploration"Space exploration/a/lilia href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/education/universityofleicester"University of Leicester/a/lilia href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/education/educationdegreecourses"Education degree courses/a/li/ul/divdiv class="guRssAdvert"a href="http://ads.guardian.co.uk/click.ng/richmedia=yessite=Sciencecountry=(none)spacedesc=rsssystem=rsstransactionID=1227295035310112119280460919"img src="http://ads.guardian.co.uk/image.ng/richmedia=yessite=Sciencecountry=(none)spacedesc=rsssystem=rsstransactionID=1227295035310112119280460919" border="0" //a/diva href="http://www.guardian.co.uk"guardian.co.uk/a copy; Guardian News Media Limited 2008 | Use of this content is subject to our a href="http://users.guardian.co.uk/help/article/0,,933909,00.html"Terms Conditions/a | a href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/webfeeds/1,,1309488,00.html"More Feeds/a
