  • Address by the Hon'ble President of India Shri Ram Nathkovindat The
    Address by the Hon’ble President of India Shri Ram NathKovindat the Valedictory Session of the 15thBharatiyaPravasi Divas 1. I am delighted to be amongst you at the Closing Session of the 15thPravasi Bharatiya Divas Convention.I have met some of you in different parts of the world, but to be with youon this occasion is,indeed,special. The august presence of our Chief Guest, Prime Minister Jugnauth, makes it even more so, and attests to the unique ties that we share with Mauritius. I am happy to have conferred the Pravasi Bharatiya Samman on 30 members of our Diaspora. We value your committed efforts to promote India and to work for the welfare of Indian community abroad. You have, indeed, been a living bridge between us and the outside world. I congratulate each one of you for this stellar contribution. 2. As you know, India has been a land of festivities, celebrations and human excellence for centuries. Its cultural fabric and ethos have been enriched with each passing phase of its history. And to that, we added a new chapter when we embarked on a journey to connect and embrace our brothers and sisters around the world. That was in 2003, when we held the first Pravasi Bharatiya Divas,and the man behind this vision was our then Prime Minister Shri AtalBihariVajpayeeji. We lost himrecently but his thought and wisdom continue to guide the nation. 3. The 15th Pravasi Bharatiya Divas celebration is special, and for several reasons. This year, we are marking the 150th birth anniversary of Mahatma Gandhi, whom we consider our greatestpravasi and in whose honour we have chosen 9thJanuaryas the Indian Diaspora Day to be celebrated each year.It is also the first time that we are hosting this festivity in Varanasi, a city which is so much part of our lives-our thought, our beliefs,our music and dance,and our spirituality.

While attracting tourists, it will also solve the water issue faced by the people in the area.

    UITNODIGING INDUSTRIEPOORT - 28 MAART 2012 Noteer in uw agenda: woensdag 28 maart 2012 van 17.00 tot 20.00 uur in Internationaal Perscentrum Nieuwspoort, Den Haag Met gastsprekers Halbe Zijlstra en Marc Hendrikse over onderwijs en samenwerking met de industrie Zoetermeer, Geachte …, Op 1 juli 2011 heeft staatssecretaris Zijlstra (OCW) de Tweede Kamer, mede namens minister Verhagen van EL&I, de Strategische Agenda Hoger Onderwijs, Onderzoek en Wetenschap ‘Kwaliteit in verscheidenheid’ aangeboden. Het kabinet wil hiermee komen tot een kwalitatief hoogwaardig hoger onderwijs dat bovendien aansluit bij de economische ontwikkeling van Nederland en bij de topsectoren. Voor de industrie is vooral het bètatechniekonderwijs van groot belang. Het tekort aan bètatechnisch opgeleide werknemers wordt door ondernemers gezien als de grootste bedreiging voor toekomstige groei. Alle reden om hier dan ook hard aan te trekken. Dat is het afgelopen halfjaar ook gebeurd. Zo hebben de topteams, naast innovatiecontracten per sector, ook Human Capital Agenda’s opgesteld en is 13 februari het Masterplan Bèta en Technologie gepresenteerd: een aanvalsplan van het bedrijfsleven om het tij te keren en meer jonge mensen te laten kiezen voor techniek. Tijdens Industriepoort op 28 maart zal staatssecretaris Halbe Zijlstra zijn visie geven op het onderwijs en de samenwerking met het bedrijfsleven. Wat betekent het onderwijsbeleid van dit kabinet voor de industrie? Welke gevolgen heeft dit voor ondernemers? Wat zijn de effecten voor de kenniseconomie? En hoe zal hij met name omgaan met de bètatechniekopgave? Marc Hendrikse, CEO van NTS Group én lid van het topteam voor High Tech Systemen en Materialen, zal aansluitend zijn visie geven op het belang van onderwijs voor de industrie en in het bijzonder het belang van bètatechniek.

Twitcident has been developed to process and filter this information in real-time for interested parties by monitoring a set of predefined topics, exploiting humans as sensors. An analysis of the relevant information by an operator can result in an estimation of severity, and an operator can act accordingly. However, among all relevant and useful content that is extracted, also a lot of irrelevant noise is present. Our goal is to improve the filter in such a way that the majority of information pre- sented by Twitcident is relevant. To this end we designed an artifact consisting of several components, developed within a dynamic framework.
