इंदौर की खुशियाँ !

इंदौर शहर में एक ओर जहां गणपति बप्पा मोर्या.. की गूंज होगी, वहीं दूसरी ओर ईद-उल-फितर की नमाज होगी। एक तरफ मोतीचूर के लड्डुओं का भोग लगेगा वहीं दूसरी ओर सेंवइयों और शीर खुरमे की मिठास घुलेगी।

उत्सवप्रिय इंदौर शहर में शनिवार को यह दृश्य हर ओर दिखाई देगा। कारण है गणोश चतुर्थी और ईद का साथ-साथ आना। दोनों धर्मावलंबी इसे अच्छा संयोग मान रहे हैं। लोगों का कहना है गणोश चतुर्थी व मीठी ईद का संयोग आजादी के बाद संभवत: पहली बार बना है।

ईश्वर करे की मनुष्यों में प्रेम , भाईचारा और सौहार्द बना रहे .

बहाई धर्म के प्रणेता बहाउल्लाह के शब्दों में "ओ लोगों! धर्म का उद्देश्य प्रेम और एकता है , इसे घृणा और वैमनस्य का कारण मत बनाओ "

गणेश चतुर्थी, ईद की ढेर सारी बधाईयाँ !

Design & Fashion Institutes in India , Career in Design and Fashion! = DII, Indore - A Benchmark Institute of Design

Scope of Design Career

Design is everything. Design is everywhere. To design is to create, feel, smell, hear, communicate, embody, plan, and so much more. Design is a natural human trait. Our homes are designed, our clothes are designed, and messages from birth to death are designed.

Design is a complex activity. Design is both a process and an outcome. It is the process of turning ideas into tangible things. Design is a conversation between designer and user. Each placement of an object, the choice of materials, the addition of hooks, handles, knobs, and switches, is both for utility and for communication. The physical placement and the perceptual appearance, sound and touch, all talk to the users, suggesting actions to be taken. Sometimes this conversation is accidental, but in the hands of good designers, the communication is intentional.

Lately design has seen an explosive growth across the world. In a cover story on “The Rebirth of Design,”  Time magazine declared design to be one of the fifteen hottest professions of our time in terms of job growth, salaries, and other financial compensations.

Today’s economy is driven by what might be called 'the creative industry'. Creative Industries are growing at an average of 10% per annum with a global turnover of $2240 billion. Workforce in creative industries is growing at the rate of 5% per annum as compared to 1.5% for whole economy. As per the statistics of Government of India, more than 10,000 designers are required by the industry every year. Today only about 800 students are graduating as designers. This big gap creates unprecedented opportunity for students studying design.

Animation industry in India is estimated to be at USD460 million in 2008. New Media comprises

Internet and Mobile and continues to be the fastest growing medium in the country. In 2008 this medium grew by 74% to Rs.680 cr. and is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 27%. It is forecasted that global animation market will generate revenues worth US$ 50-70 billion annually.

The Indian Real Estate Industry in December 2008 was estimated to be US$ 48 billion with a CAGR of 30%. Growing population, rising income levels, urbanization and the rapid growth of the IT sector are the key drivers for the Indian real estate sector, which consequently translates as opportunity for interior designers. Architectural Outsourcing Service in India has the potential to grow to $12 billion.

The Indian Graphic & Communication Design Industry is on the rise. There is an increasing need for graphic communication in the modern day commercial activities. With the growth in services like Printing, Packaging, Advertising, Publishing and Film, etc, the Graphic & Communication Design Industry is expected to grow at a fast pace. Advertising as a sector is growing at 12% and print media growth is happening at healthy rate of 6.9% CAGR.

The current size of Indian Fashion Industry stands at around Rs. 290 crore and is expected to grow more than double, and reach Rs. 750 crore by 2012. The Industry is expected to create additional employment opportunities for over 50,000 skilled professionals like fashion designer, merchandisers etc. by 2012.

To sum up, Design as a career offers tremendous prospects. It is a career where you have fun everyday, earn better than others, and get a job more easily. In this career you will have the pleasure and satisfaction of creating something new and opportunity to become famous.

King of the Bahai Festival : Ridvan

Ridvan Festival (Pronounced as “Rezwan”)


Introduction

The Festival of Ridvan is considered the greatest festival in Bahá'í Faith. It is a 12-day long festival and starts from April 21 and culminates at sunset May 2. The first, ninth and twelfth days are consecrated for special worship and service.



Ridvan marks the public declaration of Bahá'u'lláh to his claim as the great messenger of God, “The Promised One of All Religions,”, that the Báb had predicted in 1844.

Origin


Bahá'í believe that while Bahá'u'lláh was in imprisonment in 1853, God revealed to him that he was to be that Promised One. However, Bahá'u'lláh kept the revelation a secret for ten years after his release. But, inspite of his silence he became extremely influential with the people. This prompted authorities in Baghdad to send him and his followers to Constantinople.


He is the return of Lord Krishna, Zarathustra, Moses, Jesus Christ and Muhammad.
 Before his departure, in 1863, Bahá'u'lláh went to a garden, now famous as ‘Garden of Ridvan’. Ridvan means paradise, good pleasure and splendor. Bahá'u'lláh spent 12 days in the garden where people from all walks of life came to pay their respect. At one point in this period, Bahá'u'lláh declared to some of the people gathered that he was the Promised One.
Celebrations
Bahá'í have no rituals, so there aren't many traditions, but most Bahá'í bodies do hold elections for their governing bodies on the first day of Ridvan.


People also observe meeting and prayers on Bahá’í Ridvan. Feasting, dining and merry making are also the essential part of the festivities. Some also give gifts to friends and relatives and alms to the poor and the needy.


Happy Ridvan to all of you!

Intel demos software that reads your mind

Here is an Intel prototype of a much smaller version of brain-scanning equipment.

You may one day in the not-extremely-distant future control your computer and other devices just by thinking.

Intel's research shows that thinking about different words produces different activity in the brain.

Thinking about different words produces different activity in the brain.

At Intel's Tech Heaven event in Manhattan on Wednesday, the company demonstrated software under development that can tell--under very controlled circumstances--what a person is thinking by reading brain waves. The chipmaker has been working with Carnegie Mellon University and the University of Pittsburgh to develop software and an interface to convert brain waves scanned from MRIs into something recognizable by computers.

Though still in the early research stages, the technology looks promising to researchers. In a preliminary test conducted by Intel Labs senior researcher Dean Pomerleau, the system scanned a person's brain to record its activity while showing the person certain words, specifically concrete objects like "barn" and "house" and "screwdriver."

The scans revealed that some words produced a very similar pattern of brain activity, while other words generated quite different levels of activity. The software uses those similar and dissimilar patterns to decipher what the brain is thinking.

After the computer analyzed the brain patterns produced by different words, the testers asked the subject to think about one of two new words. The challenge for the computer was then to determine which word the person was thinking based on the previous brain scan. In the test, the computer scored 10 out of 10 for a perfect grade.

Intel mind-reading software.

The MRI and scanning equipment used in the initial research is as large as a traditional MRI machine. But researchers around the world are striving to miniaturize the technology, and Pomerleau is hopeful the equipment could one day be small enough to be built into a hat.

If and when the system becomes more consumer friendly, Pomerleau believes that people could use it to command computers or robots through one's thoughts.

Designed to showcase products currently under development, the Tech Heaven event also pulled the curtain on a number of other potential new technologies from Intel.

Intel's Light Peak is a thin, flexible, optical fiber cable--about the width of a human hair--that could potentially transfer data at up to 10 billion bits per second. As an example, Light Peak could download the entire contents of the Library of Congress--10 terabytes of data--in just 17 minutes.

Intel's Understand Me project could turn your smartphone into a true personal assistant and even a mobile life coach. By detecting and analyzing your location, your social interactions, and other aspects of your day-to-day life, your phone could offer recommendations to help you improve certain behaviors and patterns.

Finally, Intel's Dispute Finder can monitor the pages you read on the Internet and alert you to any content that may be dubious or disputed by another source, helping you better determine which information you can trust and which you can't.
