:00:19. > :00:22.Hi, guys. Martin here, taking you into the weekend with Friday's best

:00:23. > :00:28.stories, including... Whether the comet of the century survived its

:00:29. > :00:33.brush with the sun. Let's start with the big question of how equal boys

:00:34. > :00:36.and girls really are. A report by Girl Guiding UK says that girls

:00:37. > :00:40.don't think they get the same opportunities as boys. Lots of you

:00:41. > :00:47.have been in touch about this. Here's Ayshah with more. This

:00:48. > :00:51.research suggests the majority of girls are worried that sexist

:00:52. > :00:51.attitudes can stop them from doing what

:00:52. > :00:59.attitudes can stop them from doing school who asked for a

:01:00. > :01:01.attitudes can stop them from doing get a bowl of water. I was pretty

:01:02. > :01:15.annoyed so told him how I felt, and he apologised for being sexist.

:01:16. > :01:21.That is something that comes out of the report by the girl guides. The

:01:22. > :01:25.majority of girls say they would like to be leaders, but most thought

:01:26. > :01:31.boys were more likely to get the top jobs. We spoke to our girls recently

:01:32. > :01:34.about people who work in the army and asked them to draw a

:01:35. > :01:39.stereotypical soldier. All of the girls drew a man. When we said to

:01:40. > :01:42.them, can girls be in the army? They thought it was ridiculous, of course

:01:43. > :01:48.they can, they can do whatever they want. They couldn't find a job of --

:01:49. > :01:51.a job that girls couldn't do, but because of stereotypes they

:01:52. > :01:56.automatically thought it would be a man. So what does it take for girls

:01:57. > :02:00.to achieve their ambitions? Some advice I would give the girls who

:02:01. > :02:04.think boys would be picked over them for a top job, just be more

:02:05. > :02:08.confident. That's the perception they have themselves and it's not

:02:09. > :02:13.actually true. Making sure you put yourself forward and knowing that

:02:14. > :02:17.you're good enough. Most of the surveys did say they thought girls

:02:18. > :02:21.and boys had an equal chance of success, but no one can agree on how

:02:22. > :02:24.to make it happen more often. Next to a warning about the behaviour of

:02:25. > :02:28.people at kids football matches, but it's not the children behaving badly

:02:29. > :02:30.- it's the parents! The Football Association in England say grown-ups

:02:31. > :02:33.have committed 4,000 misconduct offences at their children's

:02:34. > :02:35.football matches in the past 15 months, including having arguments

:02:36. > :02:41.and even fights with parents supporting rival teams. The FA say

:02:42. > :02:46.they'll offer courses to the worst offenders. We want to hear if you've

:02:47. > :02:51.seen any examples of bad parental behaviour at your local youth footy

:02:52. > :02:54.games. Head to the website to let us know. Next, it was already one of

:02:55. > :03:00.the know. Next, it was already one of

:03:01. > :03:03.Comet Ison's become even more of a mystery. Last night, the so-called

:03:04. > :03:08."comet of the century" was on a make-or-break journey around the

:03:09. > :03:11.sun. Experts held their breath to see if it would survive the super

:03:12. > :03:14.hot temperatures, come out the other side and head towards earth. So did

:03:15. > :03:21.it? It's been on an epic journey a light

:03:22. > :03:25.year across space, but did Comet Ison survive a brush with the sun?

:03:26. > :03:28.It's over 4.5 billion years-old and could help solve some of the

:03:29. > :03:32.mysteries of space, but last night it flew so close to our star that,

:03:33. > :03:37.at first, scientists thought it had been destroyed forever. But now they

:03:38. > :03:41.think there's a chance that something did survive the orbit.

:03:42. > :03:46.What they know for sure is that what came out from behind the sun is not

:03:47. > :03:49.as big as what went in. The comet's icy exterior was melted away by

:03:50. > :03:54.2,000 degree temperatures. What astronomers are now trying to figure

:03:55. > :03:59.out is how much remains. We should know for sure in the next 24 hours.

:04:00. > :04:02.If it hasn't been destroyed, it should pass earth in December and

:04:03. > :04:08.could still provide a spectacular light show in our skies. In the

:04:09. > :04:14.meantime, the waiting - and hoping - continues. OK, if you've ever

:04:15. > :04:18.dreamed of building your own robot then just take this as a bit of a

:04:19. > :04:22.word of warning. This is Tao. He's Chinese, and has spent the last year

:04:23. > :04:25.and all of his life's savings making this giant thing. It's made from

:04:26. > :04:30.scrap metal and second hand electrical equipment and he calls it

:04:31. > :04:34."the King of Innovation". But Tao lives in a tiny apartment and, at

:04:35. > :04:39.more than two metres high and a weight of 30 stones, the robot is

:04:40. > :04:44.too big to get out of the house. Doh! That's almost all we've got

:04:45. > :04:47.time for, but if giant, fossilised Dino-poo is something that gets you

:04:48. > :04:50.excited, head to the Newsround website to see the ancient, communal

:04:51. > :04:52.dinosaur toilet that's just been discovered in Argentina. That's all

:04:53. > :04:56.from us today but we're back bright discovered in Argentina. That's all

:04:57. > :04:58.and early tomorrow. Have a great weekend.
