Indian Builds Affordable Compact Car
India is the home to one of the world's smallest and cheapest consumer
cars: the Tata Nano. But now one mechanic has built an even more compact
car at his workshop in southern India. He was inspired by the lack of road
space and the ever-increasing cost of living.

The owner of this Bangalore mechanical workshop has built an affordable
compact car.
The lack of parking space and the increasing cost of living were the main
inspiration for Narsimha Raju, who built the two-seater car for those on a
low budget.
[Narsimha Raju, Compact Car Builder]:
"As you know in our society, we don't get proper space to park our cars or
even moving on road, there is no space. Because of this congested life
everybody, I thought why should I not do a compact car, which is suitable
to everyday, cost wise and space wise. And that was the inspiration."
Raju's affordable car is on the same budget as a two-wheeler but with added

Behind the scenes of building an electric car - The journey
Follow us on a journey of the successes and dissapointments that were
Team Swinburne Electric 2010, AKA tse_10, was the first year a group of
Swinburne engineering students endevoured to develop and build an Electric
Vehicle for the Formula SAE competition. The team hit trouble when they
blew up their motor controller, just over a week before the competition.
The team then borrowed another motor controller which also ended up
blowing. The team then borrowed ANOTHER motor controller, to which they had
some success, until the night before the competition, when it also blew up.
In total the team blew up 3x $4,000 controllers, 6 times (after repairs).
It is thought that the motor is faulty and is causing the issues.

Build Your Own Electric Motorcycle
Presentation teaching people how to build their own electric motorcycle. As
seen at the Mother Earth News Fair in Puyallup, WA in June 2011.
This motorcycle was designed for use in the city I live in. I is geared for
a top speed of 45 mph (could easily be geared higher, I'm in all 25 mph
zones, and have gotten a speeding ticket in my electric car... ) The cycle
goes 20-30 miles per charge with 4 off-the-shelf batteries, and recharges
in 8 hours or less. Total budget for the project was right around $2000,
including the frame, insurance, motorcycle safety class, etc.

We only booked a few days before travelling but we managed to get a seamless seaplane transfer through the hotel (they organise everything). We opted for the all inc package which was well worth it, it includes a few trips out & a snorkling lesson which was necessary. Service was sometimes at the pace of the island but excellent the rest of the time. We loved going there."
We had an absolutely fabulous stay at the Meeru Island Resort. The staff could not have been more helpful. There were one or two minor things that could have been improved with the room but it would be a bit churlish of me to list them given the overall great time my wife and I had."
Beautiful sea and beach. Very clean water and nice reception. Only complain is the restaurant service. Impolite waiter without care and no passion. Unforgettable snorkeling specially at night. I saw a manta ray when snorkeling at the edge of the coral reef"
It was an awesome trip to maldives and stay at such a nice hotel like W....d staff are friendly....d surrounding area are beautiful.....d activites are fun.....worth d price"
The hotel and staff were both nice, it was just a bit expensive for such a tiny room!!"
Off the beaten path but service was exceptional. Hotel staff meet me at airport, arranged for water taxi, and shuttled me to hotel in main island. Same service following day to meet dive safari group"
Location is great and very pleasant staff and reasonable facilities. Lovely dining lounge overlooking sea. Probs- not of the hotels making - Maldives ingeneral - , lax health and safety, everything priced (rip off prices) in US dollars. If you are in the middle of the pacific you are going to get fleeced - just be aware before you go and it will not spoil your holiday."

RTM Approves Resolution Encouraging More Family Y Talks
The Westport Representative Town Meeting Tuesday night approved a sense of the meeting resolution encouraging the administration to continue to work with Westport Weston Family Y officials on exploring options to keep the facility downtown that could include a land swap.
The measure, which is nonbinding, was approved after three hours of debate and five revisions of the resolution. The first resolution requested First Selectman Gordon Joseloff to create a committee to search for downtown solutions rather than seeing the Family Y moving to Camp Mahackeno.
Joseloff, however, said he would not form a committee because he feels action needs to be taken. Additionally, he said, he has been talking with Family Y officials at least weekly about potentially keeping the facility downtown.
He has already taken action, he said, by moving forward with an engineering study of Jesup Green and Baron's South, which includes considering a large, community-use facility for the area.

Speakers Forcus on Energy Conservation, Green Power
The Westport Green Energy Task Force tonight heard from representatives of Connecticut Light & Power Co. and the Connecticut Clean Energy Fund about initiatives they are taking to reduce energy consumption and promote clean energy.
They were the first of a series of speakers to address the task force about clean energy initiatives throughout the state.
Marge Kelly, representing CL&P's Conservation Department, said her company focuses more on conserving energy than instituting new clean energy technologies.
Its efforts include requesting people not to use appliances such as washers and dryers until after 8 p.m. at night under the "Wait Until Eight" program, she said.

Application Filed to Demolish 113 Cross Highway

By Jennifer Connic
The owners of 113 Cross Highway—which was the location of Westport's first filling station—are seeking demolition permits and for someone to purchase the property.
The application for the demolition permits comes about one week after the Zoning Board of Appeals granted one variance that allows for a home office but denied variances that would have allowed expanding the office's size and a guest room (See WestportNow Feb. 28).
Kim Ronemus, who owns the property with her husband Michael, said they are requesting the demolition permit for anyone who may purchase the property.
"We didn't get any variances for what we want to do," she said. "We are completely devastated. It's not economically feasible for us to renovate those seven outbuildings and have them stand with no use."

Stuart A. Robinson, Supervisory Special Agent, New Haven Division of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, told the Westport Rotary Club today that the FBI has had to do more with less since 9/11.
The tragedy of Sept. 11 has changed how the nation feels about itself, and how the FBI deals with law enforcement issues, he said.
Speaking of those who attempt to perpetuate fraud on the public, Robinson said these people "have no shame, and are very goal-oriented."
In an attempt to deflect fraud, he said the public should make a firm rule never to give information of a personal nature to anyone, unless you have, on a proactive basis. sought out an entity such as a known charity or local church.

Staples Principal Gives Details of Drug Incident
John Dodig: "Students involved will be welcomed back" after consequences concluded. WN file photoIn a letter sent today to parents at Westport's Staples High School, Principal John Dodig detailed last week's drug incident at the school and asked them to "remember that part of being a teenager is making mistakes."
Dodig disclosed for the first time that nine students were involved in the marijuana incident Thursday which resulted in the arrest of seven students. (See WestportNow March 2, 2007)
He said the nine were suspended from school for periods of from five to 10 days. Some of the seven arrested have been recommended to the Superintendent of Schools for expulsion from school for a length of time to be determined at a hearing but not to exceed 180 school days.
"It is important to remember that part of being a teenager is making mistakes," Dodig said. "Some mistakes are worse than others and result in dire consequences.

School Board Discusses Policy on Police in Schools
The Westport Board of Education Monday night began discussions on develping a policy on when police would be allowed in schools. It came just days after seven Staples High School students were arrested on drug possession charges.
The board's discussion about permitting police in schools—including when there is an incident in the schools—was its first since 2001, and gave direction to its attorney Tom Mooney on writing a new policy.
Board Chairman Mary Parmelee said there are two times police could be in the schools, including when school officials call them and when officers want to talk to a student involved in an incident that did not happen at a school.
Schools Superintendent Elliott Landon said in his experience in Westport police officers do not come onto school grounds unless they are invited by school officials.

Kindergarten Savings $310,000 Less than Expected
Westport Schools Superintendent Elliott Landon tonight clarified how much will be saved on transportation because of all-day kindergarten, which is $310,000 less than originally anticipated.
The Board of Education approved a plan to implement three full days of kindergarten in the fall along with two days of classes that will end 2 hours earlier than the remainder of elementary students. At that time, Landon said school officials would save $390,000 in transportation costs.
Landon said tonight during the announcements portion of the meeting that he "misspoke" and the actual savings will be $80,000.
Board Chairwoman Mary Parmelee noted that the board approved the measure for its education value and not the savings, but she asked the board if any member wanted to bring the plan back for a re-vote. No one said they wanted a second vote on the matter.

School Board Won't Change Attorneys
The Westport Board of Education made clear tonight it will not change its attorney although concerns were raised about a potential conflict of interest since he is from the same firm as the attorney representing a developer suing the town over a residential project.
Attorney Chris Smith, representing Redcoast Development, and school board attorney Tom Mooney are both from Hartford-based Shipman and Goodwin. Redcoat Development is appealing the Planning and Zoning Commission's decision to reject a proposed condominium development, which includes affordable housing, for the Gorham Avenue Historic District.
Mooney said during tonight's meeting the Connecticut Bar Association ruled 22 years ago that there is no conflict of interest because the Board of Education is a state agency. The question comes up regularly, he said, because the firm has 140 attorneys representing a variety of issues, including 80 school districts in the state, he said.
"This is a land use issue, and it's unrelated to the work of the school system," he said. "I represent the Board of Education. I do not represent the town. It's separate."

P&Z Examines Infrastructure Issues
While there are enough school facilities to house children, Westport school and town officials will need to examine administrative space and where to house school buses over the next 10 years.
The issue came up during a Westport Planning and Zoning Commission discussion tonight on the update to the Town Plan of Conservation and Development.
Avon-based Planimetrics is working with the commission on the update, and issued a booklet on infrastructure issues, which can be found on the town's Web site.
Glenn Chalder, Planimetrics principal, told the commission that the idea is not to micromanage each department on what it should do in the future, but rather to make sure each has the facilities to carry out its mission for the next 10 years.

Proposed Zoning Regulations Focus on Home Size
The Westport Planning and Zoning Commission will begin discussions this week on proposed new zoning regulations that would limit the size of residential structures.
The new regulations are available in the Planning and Zoning Department at Town Hall and are scheduled to be placed on the town's Web site.
The proposed regulations include new limits on height and setbacks, and will be the subject of a commission work session on Thursday at 7 p.m. in Town Hall. A public workshop on the regulations is scheduled for Thursday, March 15 at 7 p.m. in Town Hall.
When town officials hired Avon-based Planimetrics last spring to complete an update to the Town Plan of Conservation and Development, they also asked the firm to analyze ways to control the size of homes through zoning regulations (See WestportNow April 4, 2006).

Arctic Cold Front to Bring Bitter Cold This Week
An Arctic cold front will move through Westport and the tri-state area late Monday afternoon followed by possible record breaking cold Monday night into Tuesday, the National Weather Service said today.
Winds both ahead of and behind the front will be very strong with gusts up to 40 mph from Monday afternoon into Tuesday morning, an advisory said.
These strong winds combined with bitterly cold temperatures will produce wind chill values 5 to 10 degrees below zero with wind chills approaching 15 below possible across the interior lower Hudson Valley and interior portions of southeastern Connecticut from late Monday night into Tuesday morning.
In addition, scattered snow showers will be possible during the evening hours on Monday, especially to the north and west of New York City, the advisory said.

Pregnancy constipation
Started by Rolex , Nov 16 2012 03:59 PM

Posted 16 November 2012 - 03:59 PM
Please share with me your remedies. I'm only 7 weeks, and the last two days have been awful. I have a background history of IBS, but during pregnancy is always worse. However, I don't remember it starting this early before.
In the past I've drunk a glass of metamucil each day which helped, but this pregnancy I have all day nausea and I just don't think I could stomach the metamucil.
I should get back onto my probiotics, I know. I am remembering correctly that they are safe in pregnancy I think? Can't think why they wouldn't be? Just the IBS Support, I use.
Posted 16 November 2012 - 04:03 PM
No idea about pro-biotics, the pharmascist will though.
More water than you could possible know what to do with.
Pear juice and pears are better than prune juice (and tastier)
Avoid bananas, potatoes, white bread and flour, rice...anything binding if you can manage it until you can go again, then only a little bit at a time.
the chemist sells self-enemas that will work but are pretty gross (although better than the real thing take it from me!)
All the best, it sucks
Posted 16 November 2012 - 04:09 PM
Pear juice
Posted 16 November 2012 - 04:15 PM
Psyllium husk - best thing ever! Takes a day or two before it works, but then it's great. Either with lots of water and slam it down fast, or let it turn into a gel and mix it in with yoghurt or something. Tasteless, but when you have it in water it has the same sensation as lots of pulp in orange juice. (Personally, I can't stand pulp and it made me throw up once when I was pregnant, but if I had it with heaps of water it wasn't too bad.)
Posted 16 November 2012 - 04:21 PM
When on hospital bed rest and suffering quite badly with constipation (through lack of moving more than anything) the nursing staff ordered kiwi fruit milkshakes for me, they are made skin and all and work a treat! Good luck
Posted 16 November 2012 - 04:24 PM
Thank you I will pick up some pear juice this afternoon and start with that. I'd forgotten about that one. Will taste better than metamucil so might go down easier!
I got quite depressed this afternoon, imagining being like this for the next 33 weeks! Dramatic I know, but gosh it's uncomfortable.
Posted 16 November 2012 - 04:38 PM
I had issues with both my pregnancies. I found eating dried apricots was the best. Dried pears work too.
Metamucil for some can make it worse as well. It can clog things up and cause more of a blockage.
Posted 16 November 2012 - 04:42 PM
OP, I'm not sure if Osmolax or Movicol are safe with your bowel condition but I had to use them for most of the first and second tri. In addition to dates, psyllium, prunes and lots of water and exercise.
Osmolax is much less salty than Movicol but it does have a musty smell. I added a bit of ginger ale to the water when mixing it up.
Posted 16 November 2012 - 05:03 PM
Kiwi fruit (including skin if you can stand it) is the best solution.
For little kids (and I assume adults), you just need to remember BRAT: Banana, rice, apple, toast. These will block things up. So avoid them! I find blueberries also a problem for DD so maybe avoid them too?
Posted 16 November 2012 - 07:18 PM
Coloxyl (without Senna). Over the counter from the chemist. MY OB recommends it if needed. Saved me a lot of pain in my first trimester!
BUT, with IBS, I don't think it's really recommended to use stool softeners (or immodium etc for the opposite problem) but I'm sure you already know that!
So I'm not much help, am I?
Posted 16 November 2012 - 07:31 PM
I too have a history of IBS, and suffered terribly with constipation during pregnancy.
I tried everything suggested above but didn't find it to help unfortunately, I was living on kiwi, dried apricots, water , psyllium, you name it!
I finally ended up having bowel surgery and was given lactulose to keep things soft during recovery (was still pregnant.) . You take a shot of it each day. Its incredibly sweet, so not awful. Buy it over the counter at the chemist.
Once things were regular, I found Pear juice (I drank it diluted with boiling water so it was warm) was great, every morning. For me the lactulose was better at getting things going, the pear juice to maintain.
Good luck, there is nothing worse! I wish I had discovered the lactulose so much earlier!

I had issues with both my pregnancies. I found eating dried apricots was the best. Dried pears work too.
Apricots for me. And dates. And even orange juice, which I take 100ml of with my iron supplement, .

So many great ideas, thank you so much! I do have movicol here, but wasn't sure if it was safe in pregnancy. Lactulose I haven't used before but my son who has a bowel condition, was on it for a long time, so I know it well.
I tried to get in with my GP today to discuss my options but he was fully booked. I'm seeing him on Wednesday, but I will try a lot of the remedies here before I see him.
Thanks again, I didn't expect so many replies. I guess, unfortunately, this is a common problem! Ahhh pregnancy, so glamourous, aint it?

The thing that worked for me was flaxseed/linseed meal - huge amounts over cereal and in smoothies.
Posted 16 November 2012 - 09:37 PM
I agree withe the suggestions of pear juice
BUT I would do it on a day when you have no commitments. I drank 3 glasses of it on a Saturday morning. And by 4pm needed to be close to a toilet until the next morning when things were all sorted.
The once things were *ahem* "unblocked" I would be fine for another 2-3 weeks and then have to repeat the process. One of the things I wont miss about being pregnant.

Metamucil do capsules - so you dont have to taste it DH has had to take medication that binds him up and he cant stomach metamucil - bad gag factor, so just adds a couple of these to the medication he has to take.
As an ongoing:
Benefibre in your water/juice/milk/coffee/dinner/breakfast? It really doesn't change the taste etc.
Posted 17 November 2012 - 07:15 AM
I just want to second the exercise suggestion as this is often underestimated. I'm taking two magnesium capsules before bed and eating prunes. Going to give the pear juice a try because the bonus is that's tasty! glamorous yes!!
Posted 17 November 2012 - 07:18 AM
Ugh, constipation was a major issue with DS. I found prunes and prune juice were effective. I took metamucil, however I have read that if you don't drink enough water it can actually make things worse!
Wish I'd known about the pear juice, probably more palatable than the prune juice! If it helps OP the constipation did ease once I got through the first trimester, hope it does for you too
Posted 17 November 2012 - 07:21 AM
Have porridge or muesli for breakfast (it's the oats that are beneficial), and plenty to drink.
Posted 17 November 2012 - 05:59 PM
I'm having the same issues i feel alittle silly but can anyone tell me where to find pear juice?!? I've looked in the juice/cordial and fridge sections without success
Posted 17 November 2012 - 06:08 PM
Metamucil actually has a tablet form - just drink it with lots of water. I had that, the drink form was foul.
Posted 17 November 2012 - 06:34 PM
Thanks for the replies. I'm embarrassed to now say, as of last night, it's caused haemorrhoids I'm in agony today I've had sultana bran with pears and peaches for breakfast, more pears for lunch, and salad for dinner. I've also drunk a full 850ml tin of pear juice across the day, as well as about 2 litres of water. My God I hope this clears up quickly. I was in tears earlier
ETA, been snacking on dried apricots, too!

Rolex - I literally feel your pain. I've got problems from weight/pressure rather than constipation, and it's horrific. You're doing the right things, so I hope it doesn't suddenly swing too far the other way!
Mi-Mi - tinned juices often include pear. Otherwise, homemade (with juicer, or food processor and squeezed through a strainer) is excellent, because you keep heaps of pulp and therefore fibre.

Wigan 3 Fulham 3: Bryan Ruiz brace secures point for Cottagers as both sides see red
Published: 02 December 2013
On Monday morning, Latics confirmed Sunday night's reports that the club had parted company with the former Bolton boss after a run of three successive home defeats in nine days left them 14th in the Sky Bet Championship and on the verge of Europa League elimination.
Coyle's side were swept aside 3-1 by Derby on Sunday with the manager using his post-match press conference to suggest some supporters' expectations were too lofty following an eight-year stint in the Barclays Premier League.
"It is with great sadness that we have made this decision and I would like to thank all my football staff and the staff at the club, who have been very supportive of me in my time here," said Coyle.
"I am confident that with this set of players, the team can keep moving in the right direction."
Latics visit Leeds on Wednesday night and the club have placed first-team coach and former boss Graham Barrow, along with assistant manager Sandy Stewart, in charge for the clash.
Boos cascaded down from the stands on Sunday when the Rams scored all three of their goals inside the opening 29 minutes and the away fans' cheeky claims Coyle would soon be axed were greeted with applause by certain sections of the Wigan faithful.
That speculative chant has now turned into reality and despite insisting Coyle was "far and away the best for the job" back in June, chairman Dave Whelan has a managerial vacancy to fill once again as Latics bid to instantly return to the top flight.
Coyle, chosen ahead of Steve McClaren - the man who led Derby to victory at the DW Stadium, was originally tasked with doing just that as he rebuilt following the Roberto Martinez-led exodus which followed their relegation and May's FA Cup final win.
The club's first-ever European campaign, the arrivals of youngsters such as Nick Powell and James McClean, and a 4-0 opening-day thrashing of Barnsley brought plenty of optimism too.
However, the tide soon turned with an 890-minute spell without scoring on the road epitomising the struggles of an attack often found playing in a different style to the one which earned Martinez's sides such wide-spread admiration.
Speaking after what turned out to be his final match in charge, Coyle called for a reality-check from those disgruntled by their start to the season.
"If it comes through expectation then so be it," Coyle said of the discontent.
"The expectation can only come from being in the Premier League because it's not as if Wigan Athletic have been winning games every week for four or five years, far from it. Wigan Athletic have been in the bottom three for the last four, five years and managed a few times to escape and they've done brilliantly to do that.
"They won the (FA) Cup which was brilliant but they lost their place in the Premier League and with them losing their place, the players, the ones of big value, left.
"It's building that team and putting it together. If people want to be ultra critical that's the nature of football these days.
"I'm old enough to deal with that; if they think there's something better that's all well and good. That's why we love football, it's all opinion."
The opinion of those voices no doubt swayed Whelan, though, as Coyle's short reign was brought to a close.
Former Wigan boss Roberto Martinez, who guided the Latics to FA Cup glory over Manchester City in May, admitted he still retained an interest in his former club.
"In football you get that sort of situation where if the results don't go right they are going to take (a) big decision," the Everton boss said.
"All I want is the best for Wigan. I always keep a close eye on them and I hope everything can have the effect that is needed.
"Owen worked really hard to try to achieve promotion and now the change has been confirmed hopefully everything works for the best for the football club."

Judgement reserved on Coles charter
The proof of grocery giant Coles' new Supplier Charter will be in the eating, growers say.August 19, 2014 3:09am
The proof of grocery giant Coles' new Supplier Charter will be in the eating, growers say.
Ardmona fruit grower and Coles supplier Rocky Varapodio sees the charter as a positive step.
''Anything that can further strengthen the relationship between suppliers and Coles is a good thing,'' Mr Varapodio said.
But Fruit Growers Victoria general manager John Wilson said: ''I'm optimistic that it's a step in the right direction but I'm questioning if it will be effective.''
He said growers were happy to work with a self-regulatory framework that was realistic and meaningful.
''For the long-term future of both our businesses we need to have good transparency, so to have a structure in place that can deal with that will be well received,'' Mr Wilson said.
Coles released its new supplier charter earlier this month and announced Jeff Kennett as its independent arbiter.
Former Victorian premier Mr Kennett will oversee the charter for three years and make final recommendations on complaint resolutions.
''Kennett is a man of stature and knowledge and I'm confident that he is a good choice. But he is one person,'' Mr Wilson said.
''It would be very sad to see a long queue of suppliers waiting to air their grievances.''
Mr Kennett said on the record he hoped his services as an independent arbiter would rarely be called upon.
AUSVEG spokesperson Andrew White also said it was important the new supplier charter was successful.
''Any attempts by supermarkets to improve relationships with their suppliers are welcome, however, we will be closely monitoring the implementation of the proposed framework to ensure that it is delivering effective outcomes for growers,'' Mr White said.
''We recognise also that the framework does not preclude parties raising complaints with the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission, which is an important avenue for growers to raise concerns.''
