Serbia has called for a ban after major international racially abused (video) across England Under-21 match on Tuesday in Krusevac.

Science for Girls (aka "Science") | Tania Browne

In honor of Ada Lovelace day, Tania Browne offers a client detailing his own on-again, off-again love affair with science, and how the role of women in science stream principal has changed over the years

When I was 10, I fell in love with a man who showed me the stars. But it was not Doctor Who, and there was a set of instability for BBC. The show was Cosmos and man was Carl Sagan.

Although the son of parents who work without class qualification, science came to me at an early age. I wore a white shirt unbuttoned my clothes on the school other than lab coat. I would get rolls of toilet paper and light bulbs to turn them into telescopes and microscopes, as well as bracelets and tiaras (my internship coincided with my scientific Linda Carter - Wonder Woman-as-phase). Deliberately crystals pop a couple of plastic sunglasses, so I could look all smart and intelligent.

As a kid, science was my chemical X Factor, Strictly Come my Forecast. The future is a utopia, we had the World Tomorrow team and tell us. There was even some amazing things to discover, because I knew Sagan took me to the stars. Science was fun huge, because I knew Wilf Lunn Heinz Wolff and made me laugh. Science had enough of a grip on the public imagination for a girl of 8 years in a large urbanization Brighton want to be part of it.



And it was not just for kids. Judith Hann, Maggie Philbin and Marian Davies were there, front and center of our television screens, showing that women were also interested in STEM than men. There is no obstacle. Everything was possible.

While I'm away from science? Puberty was much to blame. Not only menstrual cramps, terrible haircuts incurred strange agitations and George Michael. Suddenly, I felt the pressure to fit in and be, well ... women. The girls were beautiful, did not disagree too strongly with the kids or make a fuss, stood in front of her mirror breaks reapply lip gloss and, especially, they did not seem too smart. The boys are not like that. At least, not cold.


To make matters worse, the gender balance in STEM in my class seemed terribly uneven. I found myself literally the only girl among 30 boys in both computer science and physics. It was hard enough to be the only Goth in a school full of mullets and Lacoste, but when genuine scientific question asked was what size bra she wore, I could not m ' help but feel a little unique.

also made me look at my own daughter, almost 10, and I wonder if someone will be your Carl Sagan. Unfortunately, even more likely, a man who inspires. Only regular presenter of the BBC pre-watershed women in science is enormous Liz Bonnin. (Very limited) CBBC content of science is dominated by men, with the exception of the sadly underused Maggie Aderin-Pocock. Most women scientists on television are back out of sight of the children to talk about their areas of expertise on the horizon, after my daughter is in bed.

Not that aren 't brilliant women out there, but they are only in the grooves of the populist media. Where is our Julia Bradbury, our Kate Humble, Mary Beard our scientific knowledge? I love to see the children, but I want my daughter to see women in science too, dammit! I know you're there. I'm on Twitter, read his blog and listen to podcasts. So why not take it beyond the Internet?

can not draw figures on television, but women scientists are increasingly recognized elsewhere. Tuesday is Ada Lovelace Day, dedicated to raising the profile of women working in STEM careers and to provide girls and young women with role models they so desperately need. On 19 October, the Royal Society will host a Wikipedia "Edit-a-thon" where fans can get the skills they need to improve few embarrassing entries covering science.

October 18 sees achieve our own Calendar Girls as Science Grrl project, the fruit of Heather Williams and Louise Crane, start your calendar. Many scientists have reacted angrily to the European Commission published the video in June that featured women parading in high heels, waving test tubes and ... uh, do not do science. The video was taken on the same day. Schedule, a direct reaction, serves to illustrate the diversity of women in science, and to raise funds for projects that promote women scientists of the future. I've already ordered my copy and proudly displayed for my daughter and son to see.

What are the most unusual cases of marketing in football? - open thread

Man Utd have an "official partner of noodles" and sell the brand Liverpool mops body. What happened with elite sport?

In the introduction to the new version of the classic work of Gloria Hunter Davies The game returns some ways football has evolved since the first edition was published in 1972. "Perhaps the most striking change of all was the money in football," wrote Davies. "In 1972, the annual turnover of the Spurs, all sources was £ 500,000. They did not, of course, in these days have such vulgar things as advertising in the gardens or in the program. Neither club Arsenal. "S high, proud of their image, do not do these things. Having regard to the name of a commercial sponsor on the front of his shirt, the idea was disgusting."

The Board

Spurs, led by President Sidney Wale, consider not tarnish your club or sponsors of the stadium. Forty years later, the Spurs Investec advertising "distinctive specialist bank and asset manager" in their famous white shirts and offer fans the opportunity to own a credit card Spurs.

Business

Spurs are by no means exceptional in the world of elite sport. Their local rivals left Highbury to the Emirates Stadium to build your income. Arsenal has also taken a number of trading partners, including Malta Guinness Low Sugar, drink behind this exercise video with Bacary Sagna, Per Mertesacker and Lukas Podolski.

As costs have risen States under the ownership of the Glazer family, the club has expanded its activities to attract more revenue. Wayne Rooney, Ryan Giggs and Patrice Evra "sprinkled his stardust announcement was made on a Casillero del Diablo and Rooney reprises the role of English in a wooden safety film for Turkish Airlines.

more peddle their brand sponsors, football clubs are set to hit their shields club in all kinds of goods. If Newcastle could play football with the same vigor as their marketing team, you do not need money from Wonga. The "whey official hero costume Aye Man" is hard to beat in the department of tack.

not fair to blame Newcastle. Liverpool sell brand mops body Chelsea perform a series of playsuits for girls. And Barcelona lived up to his "more than a club" myth in their role as providers of dog collar

The rampant commercialization of the sport shows no sign of slowing down, but where can you go once the clubs have adopted official partners of noodles? As Llambias, do you think sponsorship as a way to buy a new drive or as Wale and Spurs seal the 1970s, do you think the club is tarnished by the application of these business opportunities

How Messi and Ronaldo ruled El Clásico

The more political party since 1975 would be explosive under the stands. Was much more explosive on the field

Homage to Catalonia became a tribute to Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi. They say that sport and politics should not mix sports and politics, but

mix, especially when it comes to Real Madrid against Barcelona. Myths of the material, even when they are myths, and filtered through the symbolism of sport. There can be no political party on the planet and this Sunday was billed as the largest party of all political, certainly since 1975. Madrid-Barcelona, ??Gerard Pique has admitted this week, came to be regarded as Spain, Catalonia, but it should not. And this time more than ever. Ultimately, however, was another game that has captured the imagination. Ronaldo against Messi

Day Franco's death, Joan Jaume Rosell Granados and picked up the bust of the dictator in an office at Camp Nou and began firing at the other end of the room, laughing. The bust is dropped and broken. Shortly after, Barcelona and Madrid at Camp Nou face full of senyeras sewn hastily - Catalan flags, still officially banned

Rosell If the name sounds familiar, it's because it is. James is the father of Sandro Rosell, the current president of Barcelona. The same man who recently participated in a march on the National Day of Catalonia, September 11. Rosell has insisted that he did so as individuals. But an economic crisis, the failure of negotiations on the fiscal pact between Barcelona and Madrid, the convening of elections and talk of a referendum on independence, it would be more than a set of pre-game and traditional mosaic organized by the club, would be a senyera: 98,000 people in possession of yellow and red cards

others outside the club, went further. There was a call for fans to carry the flag Catalan independence, adorned with a star. Joan Laporta, the former president, was among those who said it would take her. On Sunday morning, the newspaper devotes 27 pages to Reason policy to condemn the fact that the game has been politicized, while El Mundo solve an ancient mystery to discover that Jesus was actually killed by the Catalans. On Monday morning, an article highlighted the fact that virtually no difference between the Catalan nationalism and Nazism. Editor of the world has responded to requests for a demonstration Catalan Twitter: "Seig Heil A Catalan mosaic."

will be explosive under the stands. He was, as it turned out, much more explosive on the field. Before the match, the Barcelona anthem was sung a capella. The Catalan city ("national", if you prefer) is not sung the national anthem. And while all the flags independence had deployed two giants and the two ends of the earth, with a flag that says, in English, that Catalonia would be the next state in Europe, there was something surprisingly quiet, surprisingly quiet , controlled, in particular. There was little tension and little anger. The approach developed elsewhere soon. Adriano to play in central defense to begin with.

still waiting, however. Stage when the clock ticked to 17 minutes and 14 seconds, began. The year 1714 was the end of the siege of Barcelona, ??when the city was defeated. So it was the sound of a large number of fans in the stadium: "Independence" The game has not really started yet, it was as if everyone was waiting to get that out of the way first. But then he did. And when he did, it became something special, unique, historic. This classic

was applauded cover AS "memorable"

course, there were complaints: Jose Mourinho said he could not speak sentences that were not given, usually expressed not talking about sanctions, and Pepe Barcelona players spoke of "act" that led to Tito Vilanova laugh: "What can you say Pepe could make a video with all his kicks?". But this does not detract from a party newspaper editor insisted Monday "makes us proud." Whoever, by its political symbolism, although the reaction is the cause, it lacked the edge and aggression of previous meetings. And became defined by football. The splendor before them.

Not so much for the game as a whole, but by two men. Finished level. Ten shots each, three for each goal, a position, a piece of each and save final score of 2-2. The difference between the two teams remained eight points (and the gap between Barcelona and Atletico in the second is now only one goal difference), but also felt that it had closed. While documents Barcelona encouraged "8", Madrid, were convinced that the fight for the championship came to life. "They used to be here," Mourinho said, gesturing with his hands. "And we were here. Now are still there, but so are we."

There were some impressive performances - Sergio Busquets, Martin Montoya and Pedro, Mesut Ozil, Sami Khedira and Pepe - and yet the end result and the sense of excitement is a game created clear opportunities relatively few, not really outstanding records and sometimes a strange unwillingness to work. He also hid the fact that Barcelona have not found their level: the latest gear made, a team that built their movements with patience and precision, striking a goal came from a mistake by Pepe and the other a 25 - yard throw. Madrid, the team supposedly individualistic, built both their goals, Barcelona did not. This is where the feeling of being in Madrid Barcelona level or beyond, was born.

But that was overshadowed by Messi and Ronaldo. It was them. Everything was on them. Ronaldo scored. Messi scored again. Messi scored. Ronaldo scored again. The two best players in the world for each other stride step. Two shots off every two shots on goal each. Two goals each. Eight in each league. Statistics are crazy. Between them, they scored 100 club goals in 2012. Ronaldo became the first player in history to score in six consecutive months

classic

. Messi came within a goal of all-time record of Alfredo Di Stefano

"Talking about who is the best player in the world should be banned because they are very good," said Mourinho. "Ronaldo would probably have more recognition if it was not for Messi," he Vilanova said. For the first time, gave his AS
crack

awards to two men: Messi
and
Ronaldo. Sport called "stars". "On another planet," said Marca cover. "Monsters, Inc.," said inside. Nobody can stay with them, except each other. Ultimately it was impossible to be involved in everything. In his brilliance, in the sense that just when you think you can not do anything else, they do. entire time.


crossed this game is also the greatest players on the biggest stage. It has been described as the greatest and there was still again. Not as Madrid and Barcelona, ??Spain, Catalonia, Madrid, Barcelona and Messi and Ronaldo. And when the time spent 17 minutes and 14 seconds into the second half, almost missed it. They were busy celebrating Messi second.

Hospital allowed to withhold lifesaving treatment from brain-damaged man

Court grants permission to the family, despite arguing that could be improved and that their religion requires that everything be done to keep him alive

a court has authorized a hospital group to hold live-saving treatment to a man severely brain damaged if his condition deteriorates, it has emerged.

the wife and two adult children of a Muslim 55 years, known as L, argued that continued to improve and it would be a mistake for clinicians the Pennine Acute Hospitals NHS Trust maintains ventilation or resuscitation in case of cardiac or respiratory arrest. The man can not be named for legal reasons.

But Judge Moylan, sitting in the courtyard of the protection Monday in London, has determined that the balance was "totally in favor" of a declaration to the Judgment of the lawful processing. It said that sounded harsh, but the treatment can prolong the death of L and his life is not extended "significantly".

"cause death is characterized by a series of damaging interventions in treatment no realistic prospect of producing a profit," he said.

s had already told the court that he did not think it was hopeless recovery and their religion, Islam, demanded that everything must be done to keep alive.

In August, the family said he was told during the trial, after a dramatic video shows that suggested he might not be in a vegetative state. The images showed the man responds to requests and orders. A neurologist says that I was in a minimally conscious state and could not exclude the possibility of going further, and communication, even verbal.

But trust argued that improving the state of the reflected s family remained so small that active resuscitation is unnecessary and could lead to a death unworthy and traumatic. Back to the court after a pause, lawyers argued that trust is not always in the best interest of L's to receive active resuscitation.
reported that their treatment should be limited to what the doctors say it is reasonably necessary "to preserve their dignity and to relieve the pain and discomfort you might feel."

The shameful history of silence on child abuse | Nick Cohen

Although focused on the specifics of the charges against Jimmy Savile, who close their eyes to other forms of exploitation

Barabas interrupted while he distracts a capital crime footling cost too serious for people who are interested. "But that was in another country, and besides, the girl is dead."

Barabas claims costs that nobody could prove a sexual charge - "but that was in another country" - not a need for attention - "and besides the girl is dead" - persecuted writers and the public for centuries. TS Eliot used early

Portrait of a Lady

to illustrate the indifference to the suffering male female. PD James and Colin Dexter wove in his thrillers.

Newsnight resounded through the centuries. But do not forget reluctance Marlovian who explained why he had chosen a survey Jimmy Savile. "

Newsnight not normally interested in celebrity talk," he said said he was a journalist in high forehead rather than one of these dirty tricks Lord Justice Grant Hugh Leveson and disapprove. "What was the public interest served by the report, because he's dead? The nature of the charges and the level of proof required. Fact that the incidents were 40 years ago."

Rippon left the others to say that Savile had abused young people in the 1960s in the premises of the BBC and charity homes for abandoned children. He regretted what he said today, in particular the management of the BBC, which, if the allegations are true, did nothing to stop Savile seem to be thinking about making a sacrificial offering of his career. However, the excuses for silence are as important as the facts of a case. With pedophilia scandals, there is a disconcerting consistency. The abuse happened long ago, nobody can prove respectable people should not take seriously the accusations. No need to care

is a family investment. When reporters suggested that "young love Jimmy" Savile said he did not children - a revealing answer retrospectively. Has represented the rumor, saying he was a great man and a man and his enemies malicious assumptions made on this basis. Fame, like the priest, was the real object of pity. His accusers were fanciful or worse.

Irish atheist friends who have learned from experience not to believe a word that comes from the Catholic hierarchy, I say it smells a whiff of prejudice British Protestant convictions Catholic arrears. They have reason to believe that we have no reason to feel superior. English judicial hierarchy proved equally indifferent to child abuse. In the case of Roman Polanski, the judiciary imitated the Pope and all his cardinals to search for evidence of child abuse in the face, then turn counterclockwise. Polanski will be remembered, had fled to France to escape punishment for having sex with a 13 year old, who had supplied the drink and drugs in Los Angeles.

If you want to know why the British press suggested that Savile predilections, look what happened when Polanski asked the English courts for leave to bring an action Vanity

A terrible thing to say to a man of good reputation, no doubt, but how can we live pederast sentenced into exile to avoid a prison sentence may be considered as having a good reputation in the field of sexuality, he could defend the court ? Judges not only decided in 2005 that Polanski was a man of good reputation, pedophilia but also with concern that the Met would be arrested if he went to London. To save American justice, Polanski has given his testimony by video link from Paris.

Conservative media release old video of Obama in failed 'explosive' exclusive

Fox News, Drudge Report Daily Caller and 2007 video that shows Obama playing the race card and praising former pastor

For some conservatives is "explosive" invisible matter that shows Barack Obama plays the race card, perfect revenge for Mitt Romney Video devastating 47%.

But a few minutes of video five years of Obama to be freed by the caller Daily website Tuesday night, the "exclusive" began to relax in the criticism that much of it were reported at the time and the content was far from explosive.

The 40-minute video - published in a carefully choreographed between Daily Caller editor Tucker Carlson, Fox News, Sean Hannity and Drudge Report founder Matt Drudge - was killed in Virginia in June 2007 as Obama campaigning for the Democratic nomination for president.

He covered a speech to a predominantly black audience in which he accused the federal government of not providing enough money to help the victims of New Orleans by Hurricane Katrina contrasting with the help given in New York after 9/11.

suggested that it might be because the federal government does not care as long as the victims of Hurricane Katrina, they were mostly black.

"What happens in New Orleans, where is your money? ... I say anyway people of New Orleans do not care much.

Obama also considered praised his pastor in Chicago, Rev. Jeremiah Wright, who was to repudiate the following year. "My pastor, the man who brings me, advise me, listens to my wife complain about me. He is a friend and a great leader. Not only in Chicago but throughout the country, "he said.

In his speech, Obama also questioned the appropriateness of spending money on the road outside, while it needed were jobs in urban centers.

Carlson, appearing on the show with him, said Obama had put on a fake accent to appeal to a black audience.

But the video should not have much impact on the presidential race, unlike the secret video obtained by Mother Jones "47%" Romney said it was viral and do harm seriously your campaign.

Binyamin Netanyahu's UN bomb triggers derision and admiration

Israeli Prime Minister generates fans with an illustration of the complexity of crude geopolitical Iran's nuclear program

was certainly explosive, but he made the bomb? Show-stopping trick Netanyahu at the General Assembly of the United Nations was instantly viral with memes, remixes and acerbic tweets spread across the Internet like a song. But while the share of ridicule was great, there was also admiration.

Twenty-five minutes after his speech, Israeli Prime Minister reached under the podium and pulled out a folded map. "It's a bomb," he said - words which in other circumstances could lead to security guards to tackle sol

was rather crude caricature of a bomb, fuse, rather than unnecessarily Netanyahu said. "This is a fuse" and spoke through the three stages of uranium enrichment needed before becoming a real bomb.

Finally, in a moment of bold theatricality, produced a pen. After a summer of prodding, pleading, cajoling and command of the Presidency of the United States to declare publicly a red line for Iran's nuclear program, Bibi was more on the drawing board.

"When the red line drawn?" He asked with rhetoric. His head tilted table, pencil in hand, said: "The red line must be drawn here." And there it was, a thick line, amazingly bright red, with a score of 90% on the Iranian nuclear bomb.

Israeli journalistic commentators have focused on the implications of the case of Mr. Netanyahu.

"Despite all the mockery of several individuals of little faith, the image of the Israeli Prime Minister and the pump will be available in all editions of news from around the world, and will be incorporated into video clips taken with the Republican Party for the presidential campaign, "wrote Nahum Barnea in Yedioth Ahronoth.

But he said, "the red line binds Netanyahu drew a country. Taking seriously his statements in a short time, a few months at most, if Iran did not stumbled, and if the United States does not attack, Israel launched an attack on itself. "

Land of the giants: where is our groundbreaking puppetry?

Peter Glanville, Artistic Director of Theatre Little Angel Puppet wonder if in danger of setting the content of programs

We are accustomed to seeing giant feats of engineering. After the remarkable elephant Sultan Royal de Luxe in London and Liverpool Wed Odyssey we saw Voldemort in the Olympic Games, Prometheus Despierta Grées, cycle Coventry Lady Godiva, Big Man Walking in Scotland. We saw many animals too large: war horses, the Lion of Rupert Goold's The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, and the Royal Opera House Cheshire Cat. All creations are wonderful, but if it where puppets are underway, we are in danger of putting too much emphasis on large, representative?

Reading this on your mobile? Click here to see the video

I'm not knocking any of these creations, and I am pleased that the puppets and puppeteers as do all our work. There seems to be a better appreciation of the skill and labor required to give inanimate life. I'm just not seeing the same level of advanced innovative work in the UK is happening in Russia, Poland and France, and I do not see enough new business formation puppet theater explores the possibilities the form and content. In my opinion, the most experimental work has been created by companies that have existed for at least 10 years optical fault (now Invisible Thread), Green Ginger, indefinite articles, and horse and bamboo Improbable.


What we are seeing is a resurgence of the use of puppets, but not necessarily in the puppet theater. The success of productions and events like the war horse, elephant Sultan, Madame Butterfly and Avenue Q have brought new audiences to the puppets and helped to dispel the myth that it is only for children. I'm just worried that we are so busy making giant animals outdoors in carefully crafted, directed and stage actor dramatic narrative are not sufficient in our own grotesque, irrational and ruled by puppets.


Why students need a global awareness and understanding of other cultures

From

trips to the beaches of Normandy languages ??blogs

José Picardo

explores the growing importance of providing students with international experiences

As a language teacher, it never ceases to amaze me think sounds shrill, whistling and dynamic from the mouth and nose when talking can be easily decoded by our partners as meaningful language, which allows us to communicate with each other in surprising levels of complexity. Language is a defining characteristic of the population.

In many Western societies, one might be tempted to assume that being able to speak and understand more than one language is the exception. However, it is estimated that between half and three quarters of the world's population is bilingual to some extent. This is more than four billion people who understand different languages ??come with different ways of interpreting the world.

Marcel Proust, the French novelist, noted that "The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeing new lands but in seeing with new eyes." He realized that Working with other people can learn about their culture and to explore new ideas and perspectives. options that had not occurred before we stand as evidence if we understand how people live in the world. So I think it is important that students have a comprehensive knowledge and deeper understanding of other cultures.

In my own experience, leaving my small town in the south of Spain to explore Italy for two weeks during my sixth year opened a whole new world. As I was immersed in a different culture, it occurred to me that the Italians have myself seen as unique, were actually the norm in the background and I was the outsider. Today's students are more likely to have traveled abroad for 16 years and have easy access to a world of information via the Internet. However, we still need to be guided through the discovery process so that a better understanding of their place in the developed word.

However, today more and more interconnected and globalized world, the tradition is supplemented with new and exciting ways to bring the world into our classrooms. Modern means of communication, such as social networking and video conferencing can ensure that our students experience foreign cultures with unprecedented ease.
Class

students link Twitter accounts in real time through the surface of the earth with projects developed around common problems academic and intercultural understanding. Skype allows you to communicate face to face with people from other countries, which allows us to break down the walls of the classroom and phrases directly from source. Google Maps allows our students to take a walk through the streets of all major towns and cities of the world, allowing them to see the sights and get a sense of other cultures in the comfort of their own species. And blogs provide schools geographically distant way to work together so that students can interact in a secure virtual environment, providing an important international dimension peer review.

Britain - through the British Council - and the European Union - by Comenius and eTwinning programs - are actively promoting international partnerships between schools. These projects aim to promote the sharing of resources so that not only students but also teachers can benefit from the sharing of best practices, knowledge and experience with a host of positive implications for teacher training and development professional.

global awareness and international collaboration in the results of years of training in older rounded encourage our students to see things from different angles and help them make informed decisions the acquisition of transferable skills will be useful for them and stay with them forever. According to the Association of Graduate Recruiters companies can not find enough candidates with the necessary skills to operate in an international market, indicating that the greatest efforts of schools to promote global awareness and international cooperation are needed to prepare better for our students - and ourselves - for life in the 21st century.

Police and community must 'stand as one' against murders, says bishop

inhabitants Manchester attend memorial services for PCs and killed Fiona bones Nicola Hughes duty

the police and the wider community in Greater Manchester should be "a" after the murder of two policemen killed in Hattersley last week to prevent these deaths become "commonplace", said a bishop as local attended memorial services.

Five days after Fiona bones and Nicola Hughes died in a suicide gun and a grenade to answer a seemingly routine incident, the right Reverend Mark Davies, Catholic Bishop of Shrewsbury, said parishioners about 50 officers were killed "in the line of duty for our protection."

"If our children do not grow up accepting the killings on Tuesday as commonplace then the police and the community must be presented as a defense of human life, overcoming all obstacles that may prevent the trust" said during mass at St.-Jacques in the Greater Hattersley.

Cregan, homeless, was charged with two murders and must appear by video conference at Manchester Crown Court on Monday. The 29-year-old has also been charged with the murder of David, the father and son Mark and Short, and four attempted murders through this Manchester.

one Hattersley fifteen arrested on suspicion of aiding the offender has been released on bail until Thursday pending further investigation.

For many police officers, Fahy said, his work was a calling more than a job. "I think many of us firmly believe that the font is a vocation, a calling," said

"

Canon David Wilbraham, the chaplain of the National Police, told the BBC Radio 4 program on Sunday that the murders were raised profound questions "deep" for everyone in the police regardless of whether they were religious.
"For the faith of some people is an important part of life and it is quite good," he said. "For others, it may not play a role, but at a time like this, I think a lot of people is spiritual, but I would not say I had a map of the faith.
