Love is the one thing that literally everyone on the planet is searching for.
Some of us, however, want it so badly that we get swept up in the initial stages of romance and get blinded by feelings of affection, lust and desire. There's no better feeling in the world than finding a person who loves you just as much you love them.
However, sometimes we tend to idealize people rather than just letting them be themselves. This is probably because we are searching for our own validation rather than actually looking to form a genuine and loving bond.
Sometimes, what we think as love is actually nothing but just an emotional dependence that we rely on for our own self-worth and satisfaction.
Here are the top 10 signs that may be pointing out that your relationship is not actually as healthy for you as you think it is.
1. You tend to feel extremely jealous when your partner spends their time with someone else rather than with you.
2. You and your partner have stopped doing things that you both usually do without one another and you both have completely removed yourself from other relationships that were actually important to you too.
3. You constantly worry that your partner may give up or leave you for someone else. You tend to become possessive of him or her especially if there are other people around.
4. You are always okay with bailing out on any other plans that you've made just to spend time with your significant other.
5. You need your partner's validation more than your own validation.
6. You care less about who your partner really is on the inside and more about how well they maintain their appearance in front of family and friends.
7. You think you can transform your significant other into the partner you always wanted.
8. You enjoy having control over your partner and tend to become distant and upset if they don't do as you wish.
9. You really feel that you will never be able to recover or move on if your partner left you or passed away.
10. A good chunk of your self-worth comes from your significant other's affection, attention and approval.

Working with industry is an important element of UWA's research agenda.
UWA has a strong track record of successful industry and policy grants with both the ARC and NHMRC. The Research Development team has extensive knowledge of best practice, shared regularly through personal consultations and workshops.
ARC's suite of Linkage Programs promote national and international research partnerships between researchers and business, industry, community organisations and other publicly funded research agencies.
The Research Development & Innovation team is well positioned to support researchers interested in ARC's Linkage Programs, and can serve as a bridge between researchers and potential industry partners.
UWA has had success in all of the main Linkage schemes: Linkage Projects; Linkage Infrastructure, Equipment and Facilities (LIEF); the Industrial Transformation Research Program (ITRP); ARC Research Centres.
Support research and development (R&D) projects which are collaborative between higher education researchers and other parts of the national innovation system, which are undertaken to acquire new knowledge, and which involve risk or innovation.
Proposals for funding under the Linkage Projects scheme must include at least one Partner Organisation. The Partner Organisation must make a significant contribution in cash and/or in kind, to the project that is equal to, or greater than, the ARC funding.
UWA has a strong track record of success in Linkage Projects.
In 2015, UWA had 12 successful Linkage Projects, with a total ARC investment of over $5 million.
In 2014, UWA had 13 successful Linkage Projects, with a total ARC investment of over $5 million. Examples include:"Safeguarding Honeybees – Increasing Parasite Effectiveness using Nano Techology"
"Integrated Passive and Active Control of Humming Noise from KCGM's Haul Trucks" UWA Chief Investigator: Winthrop Professor Jie Pan
Partner Organisations: Kalgoorlie Consolidated Gold Mines, Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University
"Investigation of the Thermal Performance of Rammed Earth Residential Buildings and Implications in Energy Saving Design"
UWA Chief Investigator: Senior Lecturer Daniela Ciancio
Partner Organisations: WA Department of Housing, Earth Dwellings Australia Pty Ltd
The Linkage Infrastructure, Equipment and Facilities scheme fosters collaboration through its support of the cooperative use of national and international research facilities.
UWA has a very strong track record of success in the LIEF program. In 2014, it had 8 of 14 proposals approved (57.1%), with a total value of $4,090,916 of ARC funding, leveraged by an addition $6,685,299 by collaborating organisation cash and in-kind contributions.
Intended to support quality R&D partnerships that will help transform Australian industries, ITRP is comprised of two programs: Industrial Transformation Research Hubs and Industrial Transformation Training Centres.
In 2015, UWA is leading two of the nine successful ITRPs, for a total of nearly $10 million. The ARC Research Hub for Offshore Floating Facilities will receive $5 million and a further $4.6 million will be given to the ARC Training Centre for Liquefied National Gas Futures.
ARC-funded research centres support large teams to undertake focused and sustained investigations into, and find solutions to, challenging and important problems. The funding enables groups of first-class researchers to come together to work on a problem and to leverage additional research funding from other sources.
ARC Centres of Excellence are prestigious foci of expertise through which high-quality researchers maintain and develop Australia's international standing in research areas of national priority. Through ARC Centres of Excellence, a high level of collaboration occurs between universities and other organisations in Australia and overseas.
Currently, UWA is home to 11 ARC Centres of Excellence, in areas ranging from All-sky Astrophysics to History of Emotions, to Vision Science. For the full list, see: http://www.research.uwa.edu.au/staff/centres/list-of-centres#arc
The NHMRC is Australia's leading expert body for: supporting health and medical research; developing health advices for the Australian community, health professionals and governments; and providing advice on ethical behaviours in health care and in the conduct of health and medical research. The NHMRC currently have several grant programs aimed at developing partnerships between researchers, policy makers, and industry.
The Development Grants Scheme provides funding support to individual researchers, research teams, or a Health and Medical Research company in partnership with a researcher/s to undertake research at the early proof-of principle or pre-seed stage. The Scheme supports the commercial development of a product, process, procedure or service that if applied, would result in improved health care, disease prevention or provide health cost savings.
UWA's recent success in this area includes four successful Development Grants in 2014, for a total of $2,437,147:
NHMRC Partnerships for Better Health – Projects
NHMRC Partnerships for Better Health – Projects (Partnership Projects) help create partnerships among decision makers, policy makers, managers, clinicians and researchers. This funding scheme provides funding and support to create new opportunities for researchers and policy makers to work together to define research questions and undertake research and also to interpret and implement the findings. UWA is proactively developing applications for this round.

5.5 overs Sri Lanka 62 for 1 (Jayasuriya 51*) beat New Zealand 162 for 8 (McCullum 39, Fleming 38, Jayasuriya 3-21) by 18 runs (D/L method)
Scorecard and ball-by-ball details
How they were out
Sanath Jayasuriya enjoyed a field day at Wellington's Westpac Stadium, picking up three key wickets as Sri Lanka derailed New Zealand's batting onslaught, and then playing a blitzkrieg of an innings to propel his side to an 18-run Duckworth-Lewis victory. Rain forced everyone off the field with one delivery left in the sixth over of Sri Lanka's chase of 163, just as Jayasuriya slammed Andre Adams for 18 in four balls. With no respite in sight, Sri Lanka were declared winners based on their excellent run rate, despite being 101 runs adrift of their target.
Jayasuriya set off in manic fashion, slamming 51 from 23 deliveries. By the time Shane Bond removed Upul Tharanga for six, Jayasuriya had raced away to 27 from 15 deliveries with a brutal attack on Bond and James Franklin. Adams, in his first over in New Zealand colours since October 2005, was welcomed with the following greeting: four over backward point, four through square leg, six over wide long-on, and four more through extra cover. It was just as well that rain intervened, from Adams's perspective.
Led by their spinners, Jayasuriya and Muttiah Muralitharan, Sri Lanka clawed their way back into the first of the two Twenty20s to restrict New Zealand to 162. After taking a solid hammering from Stephen Fleming and Brendon McCullum - 80 runs were added in just over seven overs - Murali and Jayasuriya turned the game on its head with some controlled bowling and waited for the hosts to hit the self-destruct button.
Dressed in 1992 World Cup grey, both openers set the tone of proceedings with scorching shots, and some thick outside edges, as 29 runs came off the first two overs. In the first over, Chaminda Vaas was slammed hard over extra cover for six by McCullum, and in the second Fleming picked up three fours - one sweetly creamed through covers, two edged through the vacant slip region - to make it 17 from the over. Dilhara Fernando, playing his first game on tour, was taken for 16 from his opening over, with McCullum rounding it off with a pulled six over deep backward square leg.
Maharoof came back well to bowl Fleming with a well-disguised slower ball, and Muralitharan, though smoked for two huge sixes in his first three deliveries, got McCullum to mistime a slog-sweep out to deep midwicket. From here on, it was Sri Lanka's turn to dictate terms.
While Murali plied away with a great length from one end, Jayasuriya kept it simple yet clever; there was no room offered, he controlled his spin, and kept it flat. Franklin, sent in as pinch-hitter, played some good shots before Jayasuriya trapped him leg before; a great catch at midwicket - Chamara Silva timed his jump to perfection and took the catch on the second attempt - took care of James Marshall; and Nathan Astle was bowled neck and crop by a straight delivery. It was a pretty good effort considering there was rain in the air and that the ball must have been pretty slippery when he bowled.
The run rate dropped as the spinners continued with a controlled length, and even Silva, called on for just one over, gave away just four runs and removed the debutant wicketkeeper Peter McGlashan.
Where Fleming and McCullum had blazed 80 in no time, the remaining batsmen could only muster 82 in double the overs. Sri Lanka tasted success in their Twenty20 debut, against England at Southampton this summer, defending 163, and today, in pursuit of the identical target, they came up trumps - with a little help from the weather gods.

For several months leading up to Apple's iPhone 5S announcement, its gold variant was leaked quite a few times leading many to believe it was expected to be an actual product. After Apple made their iPhone 5S announcement, we learned the device would be made available in three separate colors, with one of them being gold. This lead some people to wonder what a gold iPad to look like, specifically the iPad Mini, and one of those people who wondered what it would look like is Apple concept artist Martin Hajek. (more…)

Big Easy Comics Relocates to Covington
Comic book and gaming fans will be happy to hear that Big Easy Comics has expanded its operation and moved to a new, larger location off of Hwy. 190 near 2nd and Charles, featuring two separate rooms, one for comics and one for gaming.
Owner Stephen Smith believes Big Easy and 2nd and Charles will coexist well together, despite competing for some of the same market.
"I think it will be positive for both stores. People going to either store may end going to the other afterwards. Their customer base is larger, but I think we both provide things that the other doesn't," Smith said.
The grand opening held on Saturday, Nov. 9, featured multiple costume groups, including the Louisiana 501st, Starfleet, Krewe Du Who, and some local artists. The grand opening also featured a sale of hundreds of action figures, t-shirts, and free comics.
Smith sees the move as nothing but positive for the future of Big Easy Comics.
"The only con I can think of is that people who don't visit often won't realize we moved. The pros completely outweigh the single con. The best things are that business will increase since we're so much closer to the interstate. The other big thing is that O'Neil Theaters next to us will be reopening around December, so we'll get a lot more people coming in to watch movies that way," Smith said.
While Big Easy has just moved, Smith hasn't stopped planning for future expansions.
"We do have some plans. They're all far off, but we may open another store in the Hammond area, we've also wanted to open a coffee shop near our current location," Smith said.
The store itself has been a dream since he was a kid.
"I've collected comics since I was eight years old. It's something I've always loved my whole life, and one day I had an opportunity to buy a closing comic book store's stock. It started online at first. We built up until we arrived at our Mandeville location, and now we're in Covington," Smith said.
The store has some additional upcoming events, including a large Magic: The Gathering tournament scheduled for Saturday, November 16, and a small Warhammer 40k league coming up in a few weeks.
Big Easy Comics is located at 301 N. Hwy. 190 in Covington and is open Tuesday through Sunday, but closed on Mondays. For more information, visit bigeasycomics.com.

When we talk about global warming and air pollution, we may always think of carbon emissions in big cities, but the study from the University of California, Berkeley finds that suburbs should be responsible for it.
The above heat map shows that emission of carbon dioxide in the suburbs is higher than the cities, even though less than 50 percents of the population lives in the suburbs. It is quite surprising that households produce more greenhouse gases than transportation. For example, households in Manhattan have a average carbon footprint of 32 metric tons annually, which is the same amount to power 6.7 cars per a year. It is notable that households in dense urban areas have lower carbon footprints than those in suburbs because they use public transportation and multi-unit dwellings, which require less energy for heating and cooling.
The above heat map is created in zipcode level that map users can mouseover on the map to see details in the popup box, which is positioned on the top right corner, according to specific zipcode area. Bar chart is inserted into the box for presenting amount of carbon emission in various categories (transportation, household, food, goods, service).

The Dynamic Youth Movement of Ghana (DYMOG) has accused the Akufo-Addo led administration of having committed an illegality in contracting the US$2.25 billion bond.
The Convenor of DYMOG Edward Tutor, speaking at a Press Conference held in Accra last week, stated that an Administration and Hearing Committee must be formed directly to carry out investigations on the US$2.25 billion bond contracted by the Ministry of Finance under the authority of Finance Minister, Ken Offori-Atta.
It has also given the President, Nana Akuffo Addo, 15 days to form the board of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
The movement is agitated that the Finance Minister could not wait till the President H.E Nana Akufo-Addo form the SEC Board in order to execute the $2.25 billion Bond adding that the Finance Ministry has violated the law.
DYMOG further stated that there might be a conscious and premeditated attempt to prevent the investigation since SEC voiced out to them that there is no board analyzing the situation.
According to the group, the SEC which supervises the securities market, was dysfunctional at the time the Finance Ministry announced the US$2.25 billion bond in that the board of SEC had not been formed by President Akufo-Addo.
Citing the Securities Industry Law (PNDCL 333, the group said "SEC should have supervised the processes leading to the execution of the bond".
It has since May 8 petitioned the SEC to investigate the transparency of the bond, its classification and a claim of possible conflict of interest in the issuance of the said bond which the government has touted as an achievement.
But a response from the SEC dated May 9 and signed by Alidu Mohammed said the Commission is unable to investigate the matter on the basis that it does not have a board from which the Administrative and Hearings Committee will be composed to look into the petition.
Again, the Commission advised DYMOG to redirect its petition to the Director General of the SEC before same may be considered by the administrative and hearings committee.
Mr Tutor accused the government of attempts to thwart investigations into the bond which has been condemned by the minority in parliament.
He justified the claim with what he described as delays in forming the board for the SEC by the President in consultation with the Council of State.
"Good people of Ghana, despite the conspicuous transgression of executing the bond whiles SEC was dysfunctional, it still remains a fact that, the SEC Board has still not been formed till date. Why is the President unenthusiastic about forming the SEC Board almost six (6) months into office?," Mr Tutor asked.
He added: "This is enormously worrisome and leaves us with no option that to conclude, there might be a conscious and premeditated attempt to prevent the investigation into the $2.25 billion bond".
"Better still, if the Finance Minister needed the bond so badly to work with, why didn't he prompt the President… to hurriedly exercise his appointing powers under Chapter 8 of the 1992 Constitution and Section 2 of the Securities Industry Law, to form the SEC Board?" he said.
"This means, at the time Government signed the Bond, the SEC had no Chairman, no Director General and other key members who form SEC Board. This is not acceptable," he added.
He said while they admire the President's bold statements against corruption and his zeal to end the canker, it is imperative for him to walk the talk by attaching "seriousness" to their call for him to form the board for the SEC.
"The spotlight is therefore on the President, as Head of State to walk His talk of fighting corruption and demonstrate to all Ghanaians, his unalloyed commitment to fight corruption irrespective of who is involved," he said.

We're always being told that we should have regular screening tests as they're an effective way to catch cancer and other diseases, especially in their early stages - but, astonishingly, there's a good chance the doctor won't do anything with the results if they do indicate a problem.
Up to one in four abnormal test results are never discussed with the patient, and are ignored by doctors, a new study has discovered. "Failure to report abnormal tests results can lead to serious, even lethal consequences for the patient," says Dr Lawrence Casalino, from Weill Cornell Medical College, who carried out the research.
Dr Casalino and his team analysed 5,434 patient records from 23 practices across the US, and discovered that a large percentage of abnormal screening results were never acted on. The average was one in 14 abnormal results, but the rate rose to one in four at some practices.

Movie Review - The Age of Adaline
|Michiel Huisman (left) and Blake Lively
in 'The Age of Adaline'
Yes, we see two beautiful, smart and monogamous heterosexuals hook up, but if that's all you got, it's pretty lame. Most romantic films, therefore, employ a gimmick. The gimmick here is that Blake Lively (The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants and Savages) who stars as Adaline Bowman, a linguist and archivist who is the widow of a Golden Gate Bridge engineer and single mother to one daughter, becomes a woman who no longer grows old.
She was born on January 1, 1908, but a car accident in the 1930's where she was struck by lightning after her heart arrested caused her to stop aging. She then remains frozen at the age of 29 or so, even into the year 2015. She's 107 years-old but she looks like she's 29. In the 1960's, she continued to live her life, but people began to notice that she wasn't aging. She decided to leave and change her identity.
Adaline realizes she can't have a committed or long-term relationship because she wouldn't be able to grow old with the other person, so eventually he would die and she would go on indefinitely if not forever. She sees this as only heartbreaking, so she avoids getting involved with men. This changes when she meets a lovely and very persistent man on New Year's Eve.
Michiel Huisman (Game of Thrones and Treme) co-stars as Ellis, a young entrepreneur who made a fortune selling an invention with his college friend. He pursues Adaline after seeing her one day reading and doesn't let up. He's an interesting and sweet guy, so Adaline is easily taken with him, as anyone probably would.
Harrison Ford co-stars as William Jones, an astronomer and father of Ellis who meets Adaline on the weekend of his 40th wedding anniversary to his wife Kathy, played by Kathy Baker. However, William realizes that Adaline is the same woman whom he met over 40 years ago when he was only 26, yet she hasn't aged since. It's revealed that William was in love with Adaline and wanted to marry her.
This opens the door for the film, directed by Lee Toland Krieger (The Vicious Kind and Celeste & Jesse Forever), and written by J. Mills Goodloe and Salvador Paskowitz, to explore all kinds of questions about true love, especially when you factor in variables like huge age-gaps and the idea of love over time and how it equates with building a life. Yet, this film is not interested in any of it.
Adaline is 107 years-old and Ellis is in his late 20's or early 30's. The question is if their relationship only works because she doesn't look like she's 100. If Adaline actually looked as if she were 100, old and wrinkled, would Ellis have approached and essentially pursued her? That's the question this movie doesn't want to ask, or it knows the answer and wants to deny the truth.
At one point, Adaline is at a New Year's Eve party with her friend who is blind and possibly in her 50's or older. A young man walks up to Adaline and her friend. Both women are sitting there, but it seems as if the man is more interested in Adaline than her older friend. Adaline dismisses this man, but it seems obvious that the man would have preferred Adaline because she's younger and seemingly more beautiful. This is an essential question that this film avoids.
Another thing this movie avoids is the fact that Adaline has had sexual relations with both a father and his son. Ellis is the son and he apparently has no problem with it. If that's the case, that's fine, but this movie should have addressed it. We don't even see Ellis react to the news or that information in the moment. The movie skips over it and it's a cop out. How would the rest of Ellis' family react to Ellis being involved with the woman his dad almost married? It would make for an awkward family dinner that this film doesn't want to handle.
Two Stars out of Five.
Rated PG-13 for a suggestive comment.

7 Rules of Engagement in New B-to-B Relationships
It's like happily arriving at the door with a plate of peanut butter fudge—when the person you've been dating has already mentioned eating nuts could kill him. Or, in a monetary sense, it's how a bad record can cost a company $100, "like an ink spot that never comes out," says Mary Miller, global director of marketing at Oak Brook, Ill.-based mardevdm2, a global B-to-B marketing and data services division of Reed Business Information.
Doing it right—bringing nut-free brownies instead, or starting out with good data in B-to-B relationships that costs $1 for a clean record—is just the start of engaging with prospects, she says. During her presentation at DMA2011, "B-to-B Symposium: 4 Steps to Better Obtain and Nurture New B-to-B Relationships," Miller got into how marketers can onboard customers.
First, they should "take it slow," use data wisely—such as segmenting customers instead of bringing them all peanut butter fudge, "contact people on their terms" and know when to go after the sale, she says.
A big challenge for marketers, and one that's become a must in the age of algorithms, is how to engage with customers. Miller provides these tips on how to communicate with customers on their terms:
1. Do not initiate contact without a clear objective;
2. Start with the customer, not with your product or service. "They don't care about us," she says. Customers want to solve their problems. "Always make [messaging] about the customer problem and not your product.";
3. Pick up where the interaction left off. For instance, in the "tracking and scoring" stage of the conversation, use a webinar to answer questions rather than to push products;
4. Don't ask the prospect for the same thing more than once;
5. Make the interaction personal and personalized;
6. Deliver the information that reflects what you've already learned about them; and
7. Learn about the customers/prospects in bits … not all at once. "Start with what you know and add as you go," Miller says. "Add insight and not just data." For instance, if a customer doesn't like phone calls, take note of that.

Buying for Social Impact (BSI) is a project commissioned by the Executive Agency for Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (EASME) and the European Commission Directorate-General for Internal Market, Industry, Entrepreneurship and SMEs (DG GROW) to promote the use of social considerations in public procurement procedures.
The project has two main objectives:
To encourage contracting authorities to use public procurement to pursue social goals;
To increase the capacity of social economy enterprises to take part in public procurement procedures and to access new markets.
Following the latest major overhaul of the EU procurement framework in 2014, all public authorities across Europe may use public procurement to pursue social objectives. But in practice, many public buyers do not dare to, or do not know how to proceed. Public procurement remains a largely untapped source of growth for social economy enterprises.
BSI informd authorities and suppliers in 15 EU countries about social considerations in purchasing procedures by raising awareness, and by providing training to contracting authorities and suppliers to the public sector. The main targets of the project are public buyers and social economy enterprises.
The work of BSI is divided into two strands:
Knowledge development through desk research on: how the new public procurement directive has been transposed at national level, identification of good practices showcasing how the social aspects of the directive can be implemented in practice, and a mapping of the capacity of social economy enterprises in accessing markets.
Knowledge sharing and exchange through the organisation of awareness raising and training events in 15 EU countries (Croatia, the Czech Republic, Denmark, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Italy, Ireland, Latvia, the Netherlands, Poland, Romania, Slovakia and Sweden).

I love how nice and moisturized Rewind leaves my face using just a few drops. It absorbs completely and makeup applies nicely on top. I like to mix a drop with my foundation for a natural dewy finish.
Customer Reviews
I have used the vanilla oil. I mix it every morning with my sunblock and it acts as a great moisturizer. I don't need to use a primer anymore. The oil doesn't change the color of my makeup, but it makes makeup application easier.
I purchased the rose and lavender potion #5 for my face but ended up using it on my belly for my last trimester of pregnancy. I had purchased another belly cream but it was too thick and greasy. I ended up using the potion to moisturize and soothe my stretched belly and was very happy with the results!

Know Your Customer (KYC)
Dated August 16, 2002 on the guidelines on 'Know Your Customer' norms, KYC guidelines were issued by RBI to check money laundering i.e. using of banking channel for financial frauds and conversion of illegal funds into legal funds.
Suitable Guidelines were issued based on the recommendations of Financial Action Task Force (FATF) on Anti Money Laundering (AML) Standards and on combating financing of terrorism.
Under KYC norms, banks are expected to verify the identity proof and address proof like Passport, Pan Card, Voter card, Driving license, Identity card to bank's satisfaction, Letter from recognised public authority.
Banks should frame their KYC policies incorporating the following four key elements:
(i). Customer Acceptance Policy
(ii). Customer Identification Procedures;
(iii). Monitoring of Transactions; and
(iv). Risk management.
Liberalised KYC Norms: Simplified criteria of identification and introduction to be followed in small deposit accounts where the debits should not exceed Rs.50,000 and Credit transactions should not exceed Rs 1.00 lakh and total transactions in a year does not exceed Rs. 2 lakh (credit transaction should not exceed Rs.1lakh). In these cases, a/c can be introduced by person having satisfactory accounts for 6 months and self certification on address along with photograph.
Concepts of PAN, GIR and TAN
PAN is Permanent Account Number. PAN is being allotted to the Individuals by Income Tax Department. It is a 10 Digit Alphanumeric number, which consists of numbers and alphabets. Now PAN is mandatory for all existing Income tax assesses and future assesses and those who enter into financial transactions on behalf of self or on behalf of others. Form for applying PAN is Form 49A. One person would be given only one PAN, if issued it is permanent even if the person changes his/her profession or even change of address.
GIR means General Index Register. GIR Number, which used to be allotted by the Income Tax department for Assesses in yester years. This Number has been replaced by PAN Number and GIR Number system is now obsolete.
TAN means Tax Deduction & Collection Account Number. This is also a 10 Digit Alphanumeric number. It must be obtained by all the persons and organisation who are responsible for deducting Tax or collecting tax and remitting the same to the Income Tax Department. All employers who deduct tax at source from employee's salaries also must obtain TAN number. TAN number shall be quoted in all TDS/TCS returns. The applicants have to submit Form 49B for allotment of TAN. Even if any Government Office deducting TDS it also shall apply for TAN, Hence all Bank branches shall individually apply for TAN.
Concept of Form 15G and Form 15H
If a Depositor is not a Senior Citizen and his Taxable Income is within the exempted limits, then he/she has to submit Form 15G to the Bank for not deducting tax at source. In the same case, if the Depositor is a Senior Citizen then he has to submit Form No.15H. In case of interest paid/payable amounts are exceeded the Tax exempted limited then Form 15G and Form 15H will not be accepted.
As per the budget pronouncements w.e.f 01. 04. 2010, depositor must submit PAN number otherwise the rate of TDS will be at 20%. If a Depositor submitted Form 15G & 15H but PAN number is not submitted, then the Bank has to deduct Tax at the rate applicable or at 20% whichever is higher.
Need for Form 60 and Form 61 while opening accounts
While opening an account, if the prospective customer does not have PAN number, then he/she has to submit a declaration in Form 60. In case, they get income only from Agricultural sources, then he/she shall to give a declaration in Form 61.

Or, put up your outside Christmas lights before it gets REALLY cold. This is supposed to be the last week of the 50's. Next week we enter the "ooh, it's starting to get CHILLY 40's"
Jim is off this week and we are working on home projects. Today kind of disintegrated a little…we were supposed to work on drywall, but ended up going to WalMart to pick up some new outside lights (two strings from last year were dead) and putting them up. It's a little bit weird to think that this will, Lord Willing, be our last Christmas in this home. When we bought it we were so thrilled, and so clueless! This next home will, Lord Willing, be our "forever" home–the ones the children will remember when they talk fondly about where they grew up.
If we meet with the lawyer this week, which is our hope, we'll be able to put our offer in by the weekend. Family Drama is continuing with all its ugliness and awfulness and meanness and everything else you could possible not want. It's souring what could be such a neat thing.
But, as I said so many weeks ago, if God wants this to happen it will. If it's not supposed to be, all our attempts to make it so will come to naught. We are praying for God's will, not ours, in this .

Montreal, February 13, 2018 — Air Transat is celebrating Valentine's Day in a special way this year, by helping kids in Canada and around the world with a sweet gesture through its Small Change, Big Hearts program. From midnight to 11:59 p.m. on February 14, Air Transat will donate $1 for every like, comment or share on its Facebook and Instagram pages, up to $10,000.
Set up in 2004, Air Transat's Small Change, Big Hearts program aims to collect small change, in any currency, from passengers aboard its aircraft, to donate to SOS Children's Villages and the Children's Wish Foundation, two charities dedicated to the well-being of children.
"As a tourism company, giving back to communities has always been a given for Transat," says Annick Guérard, Chief Operating Officer at Transat. "That was the incentive behind Small Change, Big Hearts, an initiative that allows us to offer constant support to two organizations that are near and dear to our heart and that make a real difference in the lives of thousands of children every year. And we're happy to say that we have accomplished our mission, since Transat has donated more than six million dollars to both charities since the creation of this program in 2004."
In fact, starting last fall, clients who purchase a Transat package can also contribute to Small Change, Big Hearts by donating $1, $2 or $5 when booking online, by phone or through a travel agent.
Notable initiatives
This Valentine's Day is the perfect opportunity to honour Air Transat's two partner charities. First, SOS Children's Villages. Recently, a group of bloggers from Toronto and Montreal had the opportunity to visit SOS villages in Los Jardines del Norte and Los Mina in the Dominican Republic. The goal was to observe and attest to the quality of life of children in these villages, as well as to the tireless efforts of this charity to help local communities. This was an enriching experience for the bloggers, who were able to discover a little-known reality in the Dominican Republic.
Founded in 1949, SOS Children's Villages is the largest charitable organization in the world working with orphaned and abandoned children. Present in 134 countries and helping more than 75,000 children, it offers children safe and nurturing homes and supports disadvantaged families with a host of strengthening programs.
Watch this video to find out what makes SOS Children's Villages unique.
Founded in 1984, the Children's Wish Foundation is a Canadian charity that grants wishes to children diagnosed with life-threatening illnesses, helping them, their families and their communities. By making their most heartfelt wishes come true, the organization brings joy to the children, relieving their pain and offering a respite for their families. It is with this in mind that every year, since 2006, Air Transat and the Children's Wish Foundation have joined forces to present the Flight in Search of Santa, allowing more than 2,000 children to live out their dream of meeting Santa Claus.
Watch this video to relive the 2017 Flight in Search of Santa.

Sunday, Nov. 11, is Veteran's Day. World War II ended 73 years ago, Sept. 2, 1945, and Oak Cliffers did their service.The Oak Cliff Advocate began interviewing World War II Veterans from our neighborhood in 2010, and a few of them have passed on, but we still love telling their stories.
Jack Armstrong
Born: 1925 in Dallas
Service: Tank commander, First Marine Tank Battalion
Oak Cliff: Born and raised, dropped out of Sunset to join the U.S. Marine Corps.
Died: August 2013
Jack Armstrong was 19 years old the second time he was blown out of his tank.
The scene is depicted in a 2007 book, "The Ultimate Battle: Okinawa 1945 — The Last Epic Struggle of World War II," by Bill Sloan: "Tank commander Jack H. Armstrong was bleeding from both ears, addled by a concussion and deafened by the shell that had just ripped a jagged 8-inch hole through the center of his Sherman tank, missing Armstrong by a foot or two at best."
The book describes in detail the horror of the Okinawa battlefield, torpedoes ripping bodies apart, friends and enemies dying before their eyes.
Armstrong and his company were resting in Australia when atom bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. After surviving the war, Armstrong returned on a ship that was caught in a typhoon and took 32 days to arrive.
He owned an auto-repair shop in Oak Cliff for more than 30 years.
In a 2010 interview, Armstrong said that he suffered from post-traumatic stress disorder for the rest of his life. He had terrible nightmares and couldn't talk about his experiences for many decades.
Sunset High School awarded him a diploma in 2001.
Beans Bates
Born: 1918 in Pilot Point
Service: Joined the U.S. Navy in 1941, storekeeper on the USS Saratoga, one of two American aircraft carriers, out of six, that survived the war.
Oak Cliff: Raised in Beverly Hills and graduated from Sunset High School in 1936.
Died: April 2014
Byron "Beans" Bates got his nickname from a kid in sandlot baseball who called everyone by a vegetable.
He enlisted in the Navy less than a year and a half before the Japanese bombing of Pearl Harbor, and he was 24 when the Saratoga was torpedoed at Guadalcanal. Since the USS Enterprise was being repaired at the time, the damaged Saratoga had to stay at sea with not enough supplies — everyone on board ate rice and beans for breakfast, lunch and dinner for 67 days.
From our 2010 profile of Bates:
When the Enterprise finally came back into service, Bates says he and some of the Saratoga crew were able to rest in Tonga. The natives threw coconuts down to them in greeting. "Boy, we ate that like it was going out of style," he says. When the Saratoga was torpedoed again later in the war, Bates says it felt like "you're in a box and someone's shaking it," he says. "It left a hole you could drive a 10-ton truck through."
Bates worked in retail advertising sales for the Dallas Morning News for 25 years. He was married to wife Billie Jean for 68 years, and they had a daughter, four grandchildren and 10 great-grand children.
Jim Walston
Born: 1923 in Italy, Texas
Service: Enlisted mechanic to the 466th Bomb Group of the Eighth Air Force and served in England.
Oak Cliff: Oak Park Estates resident for about 50 years.
Died: Aug. 13, 2017
Jim Walston was a second-generation airplane lover.
He worked on B-24 bombers, including one called the "Laden Maid," which flew dozens of missions.
"The mechanics worked on the runways, under no cover, in all weather," the Advocate wrote in 2010. "Walston remembers the bitter cold and deep snow of the winter of '45, when he manually cleaned snow and ice off of airplane wings."
On D-Day, June 6, 1944, Walston's division had orders to send nearly every bomber up, although he didn't know what was happening until later.
After the war, Walston received an engineering degree from Texas A&M University and went to work for Vought Aircraft in Grand Prairie, where he worked in the test lab for 37 years. The last plane he worked on as an employee was Northrop Grumman's B2 Spirit, the famous "Stealth Bomber," in 1988.
As part of the Vought Retirement Club, Walston helped restore at least nine vintage warplanes, several of which are displayed at the Frontiers of Flight Museum.

Work in Progress
Here's an extract from my latest project from Syria that should be ready for publication within the next two months.
Broken Boy Soldiers
A dark, starless night wraps its arms around us. We are floating in its deep, black nothingness and only the white reflective lines on the asphalt road caught in the one surviving headlight reveals our movement. We are rapidly being absorbed into the Syrian night, removing our self with increasing speed from the relative normality that comes with the Turkish border.
It's been a while since we last passed the burning oil drums marking the start and end of cities, all revealing bearded faces of city elders that peer out of the darkness, the red warmth of the fire reflecting in their eyes. They stop us: Who are we? Or more importantly, who are we not? The two people in the front seats are well known faces on these roads so we continue onwards.
Momen and Yahoo are members of the Tawheed Brigade and fights for the revolution. Yahoo is 21 years old and experienced. He used to be a fighter, but due to his technologic abilities, he is now in charge of media and communication. Yahoo is driving the car. Moomen is 16 and carrying the Kalasnikhow. They are best friends.
A few hours earlier, walking down the main street of the Turkish border town Reyhanli, I stopped at a street stall selling army fatigues and belts for ammunition. I had recognized a black nylon vest with pockets on the front and back large enough to hold AK47 magazines and grenades.
This type of vest is the highest fashion among the rebels along with the black headscarves that carry the Shahaada (Muslim declaration of faith) in white writing.
A couple of men come up and look at the headscarves. With their long white robes and full-grown beards they are as foreign as me. They smile and I smile back. They are here to join the rebels and crossing over the border today. They ask me to come with them, but to their disappointment I politely decline and explain that I already have made arrangements. We wish each other safe travels and as I turn the corner I find my Syrian contact waiting for me.
As we approach the border barrier on foot I see a sea of faces through the metal bars marking the end of Turkey. A policeman stands blocking a small opening in the gate, not letting anybody in. We sneak behind a truck and walk up to the guard with our heads down. My friend grabs my arm and starts to press through the opening. The officer barely notices us. He's too busy keeping the many Syrians out of Turkey to notice anybody trying to get in. Why would he?
This is the first time I've been smuggled over a border and I can feel the adrenalin pumping. The contrast of this other territory hits me immediately when we enter…
Stay tuned for the publication of the full story shortly.
Back In Syria
I've been back in Syria since Saturday, doing a so-called 'NGO-run' with a Danish charity. We've been at a few refugee camps and also visited a string of hospitals. Mostly we've been in meetings trying to arrange the next batch of emergency relief.
Now I'm back in the country, this time on my own. I am travelling the Idlib province with a group of rebels called the Tawheed Brigade. I am gathering photos as we go along and working on a range of different projects but as I've been feeling a little like a photojournalistic cliché lately (that not necessarily meant as a bad thing) I've decided to do an old school black and white series for the first blog.
Hope to have some more time soon to get the different pieces together, but right now it's all loose strings tying them selves together here and there and not always in the right order, so bear with me while I find myself in this mess of a conflict…
Drinking Tea with the Rebels
I'm back in Turkey. Hotel. Bed. Facebook. A friend request pops up, name written in Arabic. It turns out it's a captain in the Free Syrian Army that I met earlier in the day. He's stationed in Aleppo but has one night off to see his wife and four kids that are in Gaziatep, a large city just 20 kilometers from Kilis, Turkey.
He tells me that I should get to the Syrian city of Azaz tomorrow by 8 a.m. as there should be a funeral for an FSA soldier.
At 6 a.m. I wake up the receptionist to check out of my hotel and at 7 I wake up the Turkish border official to check out of Turkey.
Inside Syria I decide to go straight through the border area and find a car that can take me to town. I negotiate a price of 10 Turkish Lira (£3) and am about to jump in the car as a man in army fatigues carrying a Kalashnikov stops me. I need permission to leave the area and there's no way around the media center.
While we wait for the media center to wake up the soldiers manning the control post invite me in for breakfast consisting of flat bread with spicy pickles and hot Arab tea cooked on a large gas burner standing between the two beds and a television that frames the room. The sweet tea cheers us all up and I start feeling less grumpy about being withheld. They don't speak any English and I've soon used up my one Arabic word saying "Shukran" (thank you) every time I can get away with it. We still have a good time though and after a while I start playing around with my camera to see what reaction that will bring. As I hoped it doesn't take long before they are posing and I'm snapping away freely.
It starts to pour. Again. It has been raining almost every single day since I arrived at the border. I curse my suede shoes for the tenth time on this trip, and stop. Realizing that all my worries have a warm bed, a bankcard, wireless Internet and a Christmas full of food and presents waiting just a few hours away. In the meantime a large queue has gathered outside in the rain. Men, women and children are getting drenched as they wait for the weekly handout of diapers…
I meet with my media "escort" from the day before and he tells me that the body of the captain is still in Turkey. They don't know when he'll be buried as his mother is on her way to the hospital to say her final goodbyes. Not much to argue about there, so I fold out my umbrella and go exploring in the camp.
New Media And The Arab Spring
As a part of my long term project on new media and social revolutions I've been visiting Barada TV which is a privately run Syrian television channel broadcasting from London.
Barada TV is available through satellite and online all over Europe and the Middle East and is critical of the Syrian regime. The channel interacts with it's audience through Twitter, Skype and Facebook and broadcasts videos taken from Youtube, filmed by rebels and activists inside Syria.
I am now working on the next part of the story where I am photographing Syrians in exile and focussing on the way they interact with other Syrians in and outside Syria and how they stay up to date with developments in the conflict.
Don't hesitate to get in touch if you have a question, critique or ideas!

"Within the ghoulishly cheerful Lyft public-relations machinery, Mary is an exemplar of hard work and dedication — the latter being, perhaps, hard to come by in a company that refuses to classify its drivers as employees. … an 'exciting' example of how seamless and flexible app-based employment can be." (¶ 4)
"Or maybe Mary kept accepting riders because the gig economy has further normalized the circumstances in which earning an extra eleven dollars can feel more important than seeking out the urgent medical care that these quasi-employers do not sponsor. In the other version of Mary's story, she's an unprotected worker in precarious circumstances. … '… that Lyft, for some reason, thought that this would reflect kindly on them is perhaps the most horrifying part.'" (¶ 5)
"At the root of this is the American obsession with self-reliance, which makes it more acceptable to applaud an individual for working himself to death than to argue that an individual working himself to death is evidence of a flawed economic system." (¶ 8)
"… Nathanael West, in 1934, to publish the novel 'A Cool Million,' which satirized the Horatio Alger bootstrap fables … Morris Dickstein, in his book 'Dancing in the Dark: A Cultural History of the Great Depression,' notes, 'The novel ends with Lem as a vaudeville clown being beaten nightly until he simply falls apart.' A former President named Shagpoke Whipple gives a speech valorizing Pitkin's fate, extolling 'the right of every American boy to go into the world and … make his fortune by industry.' Whipple describes Pitkin's dismemberment — 'lovingly,' Dickstein adds — and tells his audience that, through Pitkin's hard work and enthusiastic martyrdom, 'America became again American.' (¶ 9)

Off Celexa - raging libido
I discontinued Celexa on Tuesday Oct 11 after 15 years. I have come to believe the drug is evil.
I calculated the duration of this drugs effect. Half life is 33 hours. That said, and given the milligrams I was taking, I am looking at 60 days before a full exit.
They should warn patients that getting off this medication is very difficult and most patients will simply buckle under and resume their dose because they can't take it.
My withdrawals continue to be horrible. 24/7 brain zaps, dizziness, nausea, insomnia, blah, blah, blah, and now a raging libido that's insatiable and keeps me up all night trying to satisfy myself.
I have had no libido 15 years and almost immediately after stopping the last pill I am faced with raging desire. Needless to say I was online ordering "products" to help relieve the problem.
Has anyone else had this situation and will it go back to normal?
I realize most people would be thrilled with this situation but I am a bit concerned and wondering if it will level out.
