Panel Discussion on Terror Management, Jan 3, Nerul

From SIESCOMS

Dear Sir,

*The shadow of terror has clouded our existence; however it could not
dampen the spirit to add a silver lining to its periphery. Terrorist attacks
have become more or less a part and parcel of our personal and corporate
survival globally, and that is why the time has arrived to render a
proactive approach towards Terror Management…an approach yet to be realized…
but definitely feasible, to be shaped with the active involvement of various
stakeholders. *

*Essentially bottom-up in approach, the evening of January 3rd, 2009
promises to bring together representatives from the Police, Non-governmental
Security Agency, Media and the Corporate World, in the presence of B-Schools
across Mumbai on a common platform, in **the SIESCOMS amphitheatre at 4:00
pm **to discuss and debate the intricacies of Terror Management. *

*Moderator  **    : George Koshy  from CNN IBN*

*List of Panelists : *

*Sonal Dabral, Bates 141 Chairman India & Regional Executive Creative Head,
Asia Pacific*

*Mr.Rane, GM Watchguard Security Services and Ex-Indian Air Force*
*Mr Harish Iyer, Creative professional with event management firm Showbiz -
who reached out to all whose family members and friends were suspected
victims in the attacks.Blogger with international reckoning*
*Rashmi Dhanwani, Ex Journalist & Social Activist, Breakthrough *

*Suprita Das , Journalist NDTV Profit*

*Dr.Aakash Akinwar , St. George Hospital & who also witnessed the Mumbai
terror attack *

**

*While, drafting a charter and submitting to the Home Ministry is the
ancillary agenda, the core objective is to transcend the textbook definition
of "Participative Decision Making" to a new vertical in the quest for
finding a solution, to the greatest of all threats of our time…"Terror".*

*The event would also be our first step towards successful completion
of this special educational project on - "Other Angles - A Perspective on
Terror Management ".This would be taken up by a team of students from across
all the B-Schools in Mumbai and Navi Mumbai  (who we call our academic
partners ). It is this project that we- the batch of future Managers and
Leaders would be submitting to the Home Ministry. *

*We would be honored if you could be a part of the cause and we look forward
to your presence for coverage of the event.*

*May the Silver Lining Overcome the cloud of terror in the days to come…*

*Please help us make it a success...*

The Bright World of Laser Light

by Dr Arnab Bhattacharya

 

 

When lasers were invented in 1960, they were called "a solution looking for a problem". Now, they are all around us, finding utility in thousands of applications in everyday life, including consumer electronics, information technology, science, medicine, industry, law enforcement, entertainment, and the military. From eye surgery to shooting down missiles or even spaceships in movies, the intense beam of a laser has captivated society.

 

Come and find out the science and the science fiction!
