Discussion topics:
What factors are associated with the reduction of risk of Alzheimer’s disease?
What factors are associated with the reduction of risk of cognitive decline in older adults?
What are the relationships between the factors that affect Alzheimer’s disease and the factors that affect cognitive decline?
What are the therapeutic and adverse effects of interventions to delay the onset of Alzheimer’s disease?
What are the therapeutic and adverse effects of interventions to improve or maintain cognitive ability, or preserve cognitive function? Are there different outcomes in identifiable subgroups?
If recommendations for interventions cannot be made currently, what studies need to be done that could provide the quality and strength of evidence necessary to make such recommendations to individuals?

Those of you who have money in bank Fixed Deposits would probably do well to check of your principle is intact!
My friend, a senior citizen discovered that her Rs 50,000 fixed deposit had suddenly shrunk to Rs 49,xxx. On asking the bank, she was told that it was tax deducted at source.
She pointed out that tax can only be deducted out on income on the deposit and not from the deposit itself.
We learn to our utter horror, that indeed under a Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT) circular, banks have been asked to deduct tax in advance per quarter in advance on accural basis.
This means that if it is a new deposit then the banks are simply lopping off your principal.
This is outrageous. I can't see how the government can eat into savings and deplete the principal in the name of collecting advance tax.
This happens only to tax paying citizens in India. What is even more unfair is that most of these deposits are fully tax paid.
We need to make a noise and protest. Do write in your comments to demand correction of this absurd and bizarre decision. Or at least its absurd implementation.
