Here's a way to kill two birds with one stone if you've got technology skills -- get yourself a visible speaking gig and inspire young girls' interest in science and technology. The Sally Ride Science Festival is looking for women to lead hands-on workshops for 5th to 8th grade girls on topics related to Technology (including computers), Science, Engineering or Math. The details are here.

The festival takes place at the NASA Ames Research Center at Moffett Field on Sunday, May 21. If you're interested, contact Jennifer Kremer, jkremer@mail.arc.nasa.gov.
