Quick notes: Women in engineering, Roma plight...

• India has a much better male-to-female ratio in engineering courses than the U.S. Compared to the West, India does much better on this dimension of gender equity.



• Flashy Feminists Struggle to Muster Support: The public isn't shocked by their "sextremist" tactics anymore, leading to a dwindling of already meager support.



• Prejudiced Europe falls silent after high-decibel allegations of child-snatching:  DNA tests show Bulgarian Roma couple are parents of the four-year-old blonde girl found in Greece: The Roma couple found caring for Maria were charged with abducting a minor and falsifying documents. This seems to be a common occurence: Ireland returns 2 blonde children to Gypsy parents



• Asian pollution makes computers sick, too: Rotten air is taking a toll on electronics in China and India, with sulfur corroding the copper circuitry in PCs and servers and wrecking the motherboards.



• Han invasion? Greenland awards huge iron ore project. Opponents are concerned about plans to bring in up to 3,000 mainly Chinese workers.



• This is what happens when you don't outsource to India:
