  • Vice President, SMAA. Class of 1985 [email protected]
    November 2015 Editorial Not since the second world war has one country affected so many others. The boiling cauldron that is Syria today has become a proxy battlefield: Russia supporting Assad, USA supporting the opposition, IS making inroads with support from within Saudi Arabia, and the Kurds being bombed by Turkey on the pretext of anti-IS operations. The horrific attacks in Paris last week seem to be a prelude of things to come. Germany stepped up honourably to welcome refugees, but after this, political will suspicion by the local population in western Europe may halt the influx, thus stranding those who need help the most. Mr. Modi, after a year and a half in office, has done an admirable job of marketing India (and himself) overseas. Rock-star style adulation welcomes him at every venue. Some of his policies at home certainly don’t build confidence. This Editor, for one, believes that government should be kept out of the kitchen and out of the bedroom. Focus should be on infrastructure and governance, not rabble-rousing. Unfortunately for our country, the alternatives to Modi and the BJP (Laloo, Pappu, and their ilk) are simply unpalatable. Let’s hope the election manifesto of growth without corruption gets focus. Our Alma Mater completed it’s 150 year jubilee last year. That in itself is a tremendous achievement. Whether it is an organization, a company a school, or any institution for that matter, one and a half centuries is just great. Anywhere in the world. To survive and in fact thrive for so long, special qualities are needed.

Following the 1989 Begley & Desai book Taj Mahal: an Illustrated Tomb, the flourish of scholarship that would expectedly follow a complete epigraphical catalog never arrived. Despite being well-known and universally cherished as indicated by the Taj Mahal’s recognition as a UNESCO world heritage monument and as one of the New 7 Wonders of the World, there is insufficient research directed towards the inscription program specifically.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106- 1346 Contesting Seclusion: The Political Emergence of Muslim Women in Bhopal, 1901-1930 This study examines the emergence of Indian Muslim women as politicians and social reformers in the early years of the twentieth century by focussing on the state of Bhopal, a small Muslim principality in Central India, which was ruled by a succession of female rulers throughout the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. The last Begam of Bhopal, Nawab Sultan Jahan Begam (1858-1930, r. 1901-1926), emerges as the main figure in this history, though a substantial effort has also been made to examine the activities of other Bhopali women, whether poor, privileged or princely. Special significance has been attached to their changing attitudes to class, gender and communal identities, using the veil as a metaphor for women’s expanding concerns.

  • Rationale of the Study
    European Online Journal of Natural and Social Sciences 2014; www.european-science.com Vol.3, No.4 Special Issue on Architecture, Urbanism, and Civil Engineering ISSN 1805-3602 Conceptual Ideas in Taj Mahal, India Hamideh Estarabi Ashtiani* Architectural Engineering, Kish International branch, Islamic Azad University Kish, Iran *E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Art creation includes some characteristics that differentiate it from other types of art. These characteristics have an exclusive philosophy. Therefore, familiarization with art consists of variety of phenomenon stemming from historical and cultural backgrounds. Regarding the point that art is considered as one of the humanistic activities with specific meaning in the universe through the history, aesthetic becomes different in civilizations and shapes patterns and icons function. It is worth mentioning that as the main parts of these studies attribute to religious and philosophical concepts, the religion part is always made by mythology in India. Some mythological studies are incorporated in the present research. In accordance with beliefs and social customs, in this part, it has been attempted to discuss about concepts, elements, shapes, numbers, patterns and colors in general categorization and their iconic and symbolic aspects are analyzed in such a way that symbolic aesthetic which is prior to shape is deeply reviewed because in symbolic universe, a positive relationship is formed between environment and user and the represented concepts refer to content. Keywords: Social custom, art, environment, Taj Mahal Introduction If we just focus on the building without paying attention to the primary motivation of its creation, it is similar to studying human’s body without considering his soul and identification.

DISCRETE WAVELET TRANSFORM OF AN important role in the field of image processing. Different Image De-noising methods are used for different noisy IMAGE images. In this paper we have shown the different results of image De-noising of noisy image using Discrete Wavelet The Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT), which is Transform (DWT). De-noising of natural images used in this based on sub-band coding, is found to yield a fast paper corrupted by Gaussian noise using wavelet techniques computation of Wavelet Transform. It is easy to are very effective because of its ability to capture the energy implement and reduces the computation time and of a signal in few energy transform values.The performance resources required. The foundations of DWT go back to of image de-noising of noisy image is shown in terms of 1976 when techniques to decompose discrete time signals PSNR, MSE and visual perception. The performance of were devised [5]. Similar work was done in speech signal calculated result shows improved Mean Square Error and Peak Signal to Noise Ratio.
