Quick notes: UPA-3, Road runway...

• UPA-3: Govt retains UPA's decision to allow 51% FDI in multi-brand retail



• And worse: Govt's environment policy encourages deforestation leading to ecological imbalance



• Taking on greed: How tribal Indians beat big coal firms



• India's first: IAF to convert Agra-Lucknow Expressway into India's first road runway



• My Chevy Volt May Outlive Me: Chevy Volt will have a lifespan much longer than an ordinary gas car or even a hybrid. 



• 'American Football Is Like a Nuclear Explosion': Nine former NFL players have committed suicide since 2010. What they all have in common is that they were defeated by life post-football. I get aggressive, the way I was on the field. I could hurt someone very easily.
  
  You make a mistake, the head coach sees it and yells at the co-coach and he yells at you. Shit rolls downhill. So the next time you give it your all so the coach praises you. It's a brutal business. If you want to make it, you have to eat shit.
