देश के सबसे बड़े सरकारी बैंक भारतीय स्टेट बैंक (एसबीआई) ने मार्जिनल कॉस्ट ऑफ फंड बेस्ड ब्याज दर (एमसीएलआर) में कटौती की है। एमसीएलआर के अतिरिक्त आज एसबीआई ने फिक्स्ड डिपॉजिट (FD) पर मिलने वाले ब्याज में भी कमी कर दी है।

देश के सबसे बड़े सरकारी बैंक भारतीय स्टेट बैंक (एसबीआई) ने आज वरिष्ठ नागरिकों के लिए 'एसबीआई वीकेयर डिपॉजिट' स्कीम की शुरुआत की है।

सार्वजनिक क्षेत्र के बैंकों ने मार्च-अप्रैल के दौरान 5.66 लाख करोड़ रुपये के ऋण मंजूर किए हैं। लॉकडाउन हटाए जाने के तुरंत बाद इनका वितरण शुरू हो जाएगा, जिससे आर्थिक गतिविधियां तेजी से आगे बढ़ेंगी।

देश के सबसे बड़े सरकारी बैंक भारतीय स्टेट बैंक (SBI) ने फिक्स्ड डिपॉजिट (FD) पर मिलने वाले ब्याज में भी कमी कर दी है। दो करोड़ रुपये से कम की फिक्स्ड डिपॉजिट पर एसबीआई की नई दरें 12 मई 2020 से लागू होंगी।

देश के सबसे बड़े सरकारी बैंक भारतीय स्टेट बैंक (एसबीआई) द्वारा मार्जिनल कॉस्ट ऑफ फंड बेस्ड ब्याज दर (एमसीएलआर) में कटौती की घोषणा के बाद यूनियन बैंक ऑफ इंडिया और पीएनबी हाउसिंग फाइनेंस ने भी ग्राहकों को राहत दी है।

राम देव इंटरनेशनल के तीन प्रवर्तक भारतीय स्टेट बैंक (एसबीआई) की अगुवाई वाले छह बैंकों के गठजोड़ के साथ 411 करोड़ रुपये की धोखाधड़ी के बाद देश से फरार हो चुके हैं। सीबीआई ने हाल में इनके खिलाफ मामला दर्ज किया है।

भारतीय रिजर्व बैंक (RBI) के पूर्व गवर्नर रघुराम राजन ने मौजूदा 'असाधारण परिस्थितियों' में आर्थिक सेहत को बचाने के लिए सरकार को एक सीमा तक मुद्रीकरण (मोनेटाइजेशन) का सुझाव दिया है।

These are the Star Wars hydrating face masks from Japanese beauty product manufacturer Isshin Do. They come in Darth Vader, Stormtrooper, Darth Maul, C-3PO and Chewbacca varieties, and each contains water, glycerin, hyaluronic acid, collagen, and vitamin C to make your face feel softer than a baby Yoda's butt. For those living in Japan, you can pick up the masks for around $4 apiece from a variety of beauty retailers. For those of us not living in Japan, you can buy a 3-pack of any character for $31 from the Japan Trend Shop which, I wouldn't even kid myself, my face is not worth. I don't even buy sunscreen, I just use old spray paint I find in the garage. Also, how long you think it'll take before these are being used by couples for lewd sex acts? "Already happened." FACT. Keep going for a shot of each while I try to pretend I didn't just imagine some Chewbacca on C-3PO bedroom role playing.

These are the vent dragons made and sold by artist David Lee Pancake. The dragons are available in a variety of dragony colors, cost $200 apiece, and are made to be hung on the wall, NOT cover an actual air vent. "But--" Hey, if you want to be hot all summer because the A/C isn't blowing in the living room, that's up to you.

Vent Dragons comes with a little remote control to light up the eyes of the two little monsters and surprise your guests and friends. The lights are powered by 3 AA batteries and should burn for 150 hours before you need to replace them. To replace the batteries unscrew the grate and lift off, the batteries are in a small pack inside. The lighted eyes have 8 different settings from fast blinking to continually glowing and there is a timer to turn them off in 6 hours. Enjoy! Size: 12x7 inches. Do NOT install in an actual heating/AC vent.

Gosh, just think how much you could save on home heating and cooling costs if you had ACTUAL fire and ice breathing dragons living in your air vents. I mean granted they'd have to be trained, but I have seen all those movies. Keep going for a few more shots of some of the different colors.

In there's no way Vader signed off on this news, this is the 'Nino Star Products Pool Float Black Outdoor' available from Amazon. It costs around $25, kinda looks like a Darth Vader a kid drew, and I can't imagine Darth doesn't wish they all melted in the destruction of the first Death Star. "What am I, a joke to you?!" I imagine him demanding as he Force-chokes the commander who signed off on using his likeness for a cartoony pool float as the other who signed off on the line of upcoming Vader sex toys casually backs out of the room intending to catch the first dropship to Tatooine. Keep going for one more shot of Vader at his most humiliated.

Because with enough time spent at home you can accomplish anything, no matter how incredibly inconsequential, this is a video of a guy with a dog bed full of golf tees successfully flipping one into a bottle's pour spout. I wonder how many tries it really took. And, wait -- is that olive oil? It's not even liquor?! So let me get this straight -- you're spending quarantine trying to flip golf tees into a bottle pour spout sober? Well thank God we didn't get trapped in the same house when the rona hit. "Why's that, GW?" You can't get drunk on olive oil. "Nope, no matter how much you drink." Or balsamic vinegar, I've tried. Keep going for the actual video (with a much more respectable frame rate), complete with "Let's go! Let's go!" celebration, although I'm fairly certain this guy isn't actually going anywhere.

Just in time for Mother's Day/continued at-home quarantine comes this 750mL 'My Personal Bottomless Mimosa' glass from BigMouth, Inc and available on Amazons. The surprisingly all-glass drinkware (but still hand-wash only on account of the decorations) combines the shape of a champagne bottle with a mimosa glass to holds 8 (read: 2-3) servings, and is perfect for letting the rest of your family know you're not to be bothered for the rest of the day because it may still be early here but, dammit, it's 5 o'clock somewhere that's nine and half hours ahead. Thanks to Tracey H, who informed me she can't count the number of times she's been asked to leave a bottomless brunch for really putting its bottomlessness to the test. Heck yeah, that's called doing God's work.

Because we don't have enough on our plates as it is, now we've got 'murder hornets' flying around the United States. Murder hornets (actually Asian Giant Hornets, but that name didn't strike enough fear into the masses) have a sting powerful enough that China recommends medical treatment if stunk more than ten times, and emergency treatment if stung more than 30. *pours out a little liquor for Macaulay Culkin in My Girl*. And where is his glasses?! He can't see without his glasses! Put his glasses on! Here's a video of Coyote Peterson getting stung by one (the Japanese Giant Hornet was previously believed to be a subspecies of the Asian Giant Hornet, but has since been recategorized as a color morph). This is a video of a praying mantis eating a Giant Asian hornet until it's just a pile of limbs. So yeah, praying mantises -- start breeding them. And make sure to selectively breed them too so we can produce them bigger and bigger until they're preying on us because the way things are going how is that not how this ends? Keep going for the video while I surround my Animal Crossings town with preying mantises to protect my villagers and keep my five-star rating (okay, three).

This is a video from The Action Lab where they've set up a vacuum chamber with a fan inside along with a number of tiny Styrofoam balls to see if the fan is capable of blowing the balls around after the air is pumped out of the chamber. Well, can it? SPOILER: Only if you turn the fan up past 11 since there's still a tiny amount of air in the chamber on account of it not being a perfect vacuum like my roommate. So yeah, if your spaceship design relies heavily on a fan for propulsion it may be time to head back to the drawing board and hopefully draw something impressive enough for your mom to hang on the fridge because you belong at home. Keep going for the video, but the fun bit starts around 1:50.

This is a video of musician and Instagrammer nathanleighsays performing Saria's Song (the Lost Woods theme) from The Legend Of Zelda: Ocarina Of Time on 24 partially empty wine bottles. How about that! Of course this would never work at my aunt's house on account of the bottles all playing the same note because they're empty. And the cats! Soooooo many cats. Keep going for the performance as well as a clip of Link learning Saria's song from the actual game.

This is a video from the Parque del Cidacos in Calahorra, La Rioja, Spain of a controlled burn of the poplar fluff (the very fine, kinda dandelion-like seeds released by female poplar trees) atop the grass in the park. As you can see, the fluff burns incredibly quickly, leaving the grass below unharmed. The time I spelled my girlfriend's name in gasoline in her parent's yard and set it ablaze? Thank God their homeowner's insurance covered detached garages! Keep going for the full video.

This is a terrifying elevator cam gif from Korea of an elevator that begins ascending before a man enters, tripping him and almost creating a classic horror movie death scene in real life. Thankfully he was able to escape. And this is exactly why I don't take elevators -- or escalators. "So you're a stair guy?" Please *jiggling belly* jetpack or grappling gun only. Thanks to PK, who agrees they always say use the stairs in case of emergency, and what's 2020 if not a nonstop emergency? Besides, how do you social distance in an elevator? I mean if somebody farts everyone smells it.

This is the Popcorn Popping Lid with Butter Vents available from Uncommon Goods ($11). You just fill a microwave-safe 10-inch bowl with your choice of popping corn, set the lid on top, add a pat of butter to each of the lid's butter vents, and let the microwaving begin! Of course if you're anything like me you'll balance as much butter as you can atop each of those vents because, I don't know if you knew this about me, but I love butter. I don't really like it cold but *microwave beeping* sometimes when I'm really feeling down I'll just melt two sticks and drink it. Keep going for a couple more shots because they exist.
