A Google OS for PCs?






Yes! You heard that right. Google already dominates the web, but take heed, the netbook is next.

In Google's next step to not "be evil" they have unveiled their plans for a light and open-source operating system based on Linux, called the Google Chrome Operating System, which they call "a natural extension of Google Chrome."

Gone are the days when you'd call the browser a "natural extension" of the operating system, Google is planning to take it the other way around, the Google Chrome OS will be built around Google Chrome: running on the Linux kernel and a new windowing system. 

What they intend is to have the entire functionality you expect form an operating system straight from the browser! The web will be the entirety of the platform, and developers can create applications which can run on the browser itself, while the UI stays out of the way. What they tout is that all these applications will also run on any browser on anyone's PC, making it a very attractive platform, since anyone whether or not they are running Google Chrome OS will be able to use them.




Google intends to have Netbooks out in the second half of next year (2010) which will be running the Google Chrome OS, and have already tied up with OEM to enable that. Their OS will run on both x86 and ARM platforms but is not to be confused with Android, which is their solution for smartphones and other similar low power devices such as set-top boxes.

Google intends for this to be target to netbooks 
initially with presumably higher-powered devices next. There had already been much speculation about bringing Android to Netbooks, which form a kind of mid-way point between the arena that Android targets and conventional full-featured OSs.

The philosophy that they espouse in the creation of this OS is, that with computers developed before internet, the very structure of an OS need to be rethought, and who else better to rethink things than Google itself... In this rethinking process they have come up with the Google Chrome OS, to take you from a black screen to working on Internet applications in a few seconds.




Welcome to the Google future, where you run a Google OS to search on Google, to communicate using Google Wave, to work on Google Docs, and to run your business using Google Apps.

Windows 7 + Intel to give laptops 50% increase in battery life!





Windows 7+Intel= "Wintel" — Well, the mathematical operation in question is not that boring because it holds great benefit for all you laptop users. The innovation from the partnership promises to sort out the most significant annoyance of our notebooks - the battery life. As PCMAG reports,
In a demonstration of two identically configured ThinkPads T400s, Intel and Microsoft claimed that a Windows XP SP2 machine consumed on average 20.2 watts, while the Windows 7 machine consumed 15.4 watts. That translated to about 1.4 hours of additional battery life,
It is darn impressive I know. But isn't this a fascinating revelation that tweaking an OS can gift you such power efficiency? Actually, Windows 7 team and Intel both are separately investigating on the power consumption related to hardware, CPU usage, resource hungry processes, BUS speed etc. They are taking notes together and comparing them and thereby working on them from firmware as well as software level to improve.
windows 7 intel battery usage improvement




Windows 7 is also using a technology named as  timer coalescing, a technical term for minimizing the time in which the processor enters a high-performance, full-power state. That is another contributing factor behind this success.
Intel has made a dedicated chip for this called Westmere that is running in compatibility with Windows 7. It has hardware acceleration technique too that is significantly improving the encryption algorithm runtimes namely AES.
All in all, what is the bottom line for everybody who wants to get the gist out of this greek. It is heartening and obviously awe-inspiring to know that Intel and Windows 7 are coming with a joint venture that will help batteries run that much longer. You will have to wait for a few days before this dedicated Wintel machines come up.  So, if you are thinking about a hardware upgradation in your lappy or buying a new one, wait till end of October and 1 st week of nov. All the stars are falling on that fall.

Lee stars in NSW's title triumph in First Champions League 2009




New South Wales 159/9 (20/20 ov)
Trinidad & Tobago 118 (15.5/20 ov)
New South Wales won by 41 runs

Brett Lee pulled off a stunning allround show to enable New South Wales haul in the biggest cash prize in a cricket tournament ever by overcoming a brave effort from Trinidad & Tobago in the final of the Champions League Twenty20. The final victory margin of 41 runs doesn't quite tell the real story. T&T came out on the top initially, reducing NSW to 83 for 6, but Lee played a superb hand to propel NSW to a competitive 159 before he returned to jolt the T&T top order with two early wickets.The game was won in the last five overs of the NSW innings and in the first five of the chase and it was Lee who featured in both the little match-turning phases. The game had so many sub-plots - the nervy collapse of NSW and T&T's top order, Ravi Rampaul's canny seam bowling, Sherwin Ganga bowling three overs of spin in the Powerplay, Steven Smith's sensible batting and Kieron Pollard's icy-cool batting effort - but the biggest story was Lee's all-round contribution. He walked in with NSW tottering at 83 for 6, proceeded to slowly pull them out of the hole before shifting gears to charge them to a competitive score. It was almost the perfect counter punch. He knew the first task was safety - he scored just 7 from 13 deliveries - but knew there was no use meandering to a below-par total and thus upped the ante in the end overs with some stunning hits.Lee launched his assault in the 16th over against Lendl Simmons: The first delivery, a full toss, was swung over square-leg for a six, the fourth delivery was cleanly hit over long-on, and the last one was carved to the cover boundary. From then on it was vintage Lee he cleared the front leg and swung cleanly through the line time and again. Navin Stewart disappeared over long-on and Sherwin Ganga was heaved over midwicket as he powered NSW to a good total. Lee got support from Steven Smith, who did what was required perfectly: give the strike to Lee, and try to pinch the occasional boundary to soak up the pressure and ensure he didn't lose his wicket.Lee wasn't done yet for the night, though. He returned with the ball to harass the T&T top order with his pace, bounce and movement. He took care of the impetuous William Perkins with a full, fast and straight delivery and removed Lendl Simmons with a slower one. Stuart Clark, with his slower cutters, and Doug Bollinger, with his bounce from short of length, proceeded to strangle T&T's middle order and it was left to that man Pollard to try to do the improbable. And he nearly did.


Through this tournament, Pollard has been batting like how Lance Klusener did in the 1999 World Cup. No target seems to be too much for him. Just like Klusener, he was almost unbelievably calm: he started his innings calmly, dealing in singles, before he unleashed his own brand of razzmatazz. He pulled a free hit from Bollinger over midwicket, swung Nathan Hauritz over long-on and got the equation down to 47 from 31 balls when it happened. He went for another six off Hauritz but couldn't clear, who else but, Lee at long-on. With Pollard's exit, Trinidad's dream run came to a crushing halt.The T&T wagon might have hit the speed breaker in the chase but the start of the day couldn't have been more different, though. If NSW were to get to a huge total, the two hard-hitting openers had to contribute heavily but that didn't happen. T&T started with the spin-seam combination and Sherwin Ganga, the offspinner, bowled three overs in the Powerplay. The third ball of the game perhaps indicated which team was suffering more from the yips. Warner opted to play a weak reverse sweep and nearly edged it back to the bowler. Warner did go on to thread a couple of boundaries on the off side but never looked in. Meanwhile the pressure told on his partner Phillip Hughes, who faced three balls in the first three overs, and fell, trying to slog-pull the impressive Ravi Rampaul.While Sherwin Ganga was miserly, it was Rampaul who really shone with a fine display of canny seam bowling. He hit a full length, got the ball to cut both ways and built pressure. One moment captured his combative spirit perfectly: When Warner tried to impose himself with a crashing cover-drive, Rampaul fired in a sharp 140 kmph bouncer that flew past the startled batsman.The chance for NSW to break free came in the fifth over bowled by Dwayne Bravo, who had leaked runs in the semi-final. Katich started off with a bottom-hand powered six over long-on but Warner fell in the same over, edging one to right of backward point where Dave Mohammed took a fine catch.What followed was a nervy phase for NSW as one batsman after another fell to soft dismissals. Katich punched Bravo straight to mid-off, Moises Henriques swung a short delivery to fine-leg, Ben Rohrer pulled a long hop straight to deep midwicket, and Daniel Smith chopped a length delivery back on to his stumps. But Lee and Smith saved the day with some sensible batting before Lee returned with the ball to kill T&T's dream.
Thanks

Microsoft Rumored to be Launching Own smart Phones






 Microsoft is widely rumored to be working on the mass market smartphonesegments to compete against Apple's iPhone and similar offerings from competing manufacturers.
Since the multinational company acquired Danger - the manufacturer of Sidekick - a popular mass market smartphone has been targeting this segment on its own under its project Pink.
The mass market smartphone segment is one of the emerging ones in market today where the devices are capable of more functions than standard phone functions of making and receiving calls, but fall short of multitasking capabilities of some of the high-end smartphones. The mass market segment largely concentrates on meeting the networking needs of youth and other smartphone enthusiasts who are on a shoe-string budget.
microsoft pure turtle leak 300x158 Microsoft Rumored to be Launching Own Phones

Leaked images of as many as two Microsoft devices, codenamed Turtle and Pure, have surfaced on the web speculating rumors of Microsoft entering into the mass market smartphone segment. While the leaked images clearly show QWERTY slider devices, the blogosphere is strife with speculations that the devices will be run on the same software platform as the one in Microsoft's Zune HD.
Further details on specifications, pricing and availability have not been announced or leaked yet.
The latest move by Microsoft is a continuation of its effort in maintaining its firm grip in the services as well as the manufacturing segment. The Redmond-based company, which primarily started as a operating system developer, has been branching out into different segments to keep up with rival Apple's offerings. While Microsoft has the market advantage in desktop/notebook OS market, Apple has seized the initiative in portable music player segment with its iPod and in the smartphone segment with its iPhone. Although Apple has been penetrating the OS market with its variants of Mac OS X, Microsoft has been trying to gain a foothold in portable music player segment with its Zune and smartphone segment with its Windows Phone OS, and now with its mass market smartphones - Turtle and Pure.

Microsoft Windows 7 The Killer Of All Windows




Retail Launching All Over  The World on
22 Oct'2009



Install / boot times / shutdown
It's the most base of operating system functions. Install, turn on, turn off. But first impressions matter, and Microsoft made sure to give Windows 7 a nice sheen when it came to these things. You can read through our full installation guide for an in-depth look at the pitfalls and triumphs of Windows 7 in this department, but in short: it's fast and lightweight, but the real performance gains can be found on netbooks and with clean installs. Otherwise there's really nothing to put Vista to shame -- though the amazing breath of fresh air a clean install provides should really set cruftware-happy vendors to a bit of soul searching.

Performance
Though an impressive basket of extras went a long way in smoothing over our Vista misgivings, the real test came when we broke out the stopwatch and measured frame rates. After all, bells and whistles don’t go very far when they slow your computer to an unbearable chug. (We’ve learned that, right Microsoft?)On paper, you wouldn’t really expect any major difference, based on the system requirements. Both Windows 7 and Vista demand a 1GHz processor, 1GB of memory, and the required hard drive space has swelled from 15GB to 16GB. That said, needing the same hardware can be considered progress when computers continue to get faster and cheaper every day. Any new machine on the market today should be able to handle Windows 7.Racing both operating systems against each other on boot-up times proved that system requirements don’t mean everything. Windows 7 took us from our dual-boot menu to a working browser window opened on the desktop in 45 seconds. Vista did it in one minute and five seconds. That’s some significant progress.Though we don’t have an actual metric to prove it, we can also attest – based on the impression of every DT editor who tried Windows 7 – that it definitely feels faster. Windows open and close quicker, menus snap open without delay, and that dreaded spinning wheel of blue that indicates the system is busy has been all but banished.







Game Time

 Of course, the real test for Microsoft will be winning over gamers, an audience that almost universally shunned Vista for its negative impact on performance. When you’re dealing with audience willing to rip open their computers and cool them with water for an extra ounce of performance, all the glassy windows and widgets in the world just don’t matter.And they won’t be disappointed this time around. Microsoft has vastly improved gaming performance with Windows 7. As you’ll recall from our HP Firebird review, the machine seemed to struggle with both MotoGP and Crysis at 1080p resolution when running Vista. Both games were technically playable, but in both cases we had to trim back other settings to get the smooth frame rates that make games enjoyable and fun to play.Running the same games on Windows 7, we encountered no such issues. Same system, same games, same settings – no stutter. The big firefights that brought the Firebird to its knees in Crysis went over without issue, and MotoGP 08 played – with all settings maxed out – without a hiccup. Benchmarks didn’t really seem to bear out any improvement, though. Running 3DMark06 produced a score of 12,266 3DMarks, which is incredibly close to our original 12,297 from Vista. But we know a difference when we play it.





The Junker Test

Windows Vista notoriously strangled older PCs, but with the reputation for performance Windows 7 had started to garner, we couldn’t help but test it on the same aging, nearly-broken laptop we turned into a home media server. With a Pentium 4 processor and paltry 512MB of RAM, it wasn’t even technically over the minimum requirements, but we went ahead and pushed anyway. After installing new firmware for the DVD drive to get it to load, it miraculously worked. Unfortunately, it’s no substitute for Windows XP. Where XP could go from power button to desktop in 30 seconds on this machine, Windows 7 hit a much longer one minute and 23 seconds. It also seemed a bit more sluggish on the desktop, but to be fair, just idling ate up 44 percent of our RAM, so a rather inexpensive memory upgrade would probably improve performance significantly. We also have to give it credit for finding most of the drivers we needed on its own, including some notoriously finicky ones for an old Linksys PCMCIA card. Gamers need not apply, but for surfing, typing, and some light Solitaire, it actually worked. Will Windows 7 replace XP as the OS of choice on aging computers? Probably not. Will it work in a pinch, even on machines that shouldn’t even be able to run it? Unlike Vista, that answer is yes.

Still a Few Hiccups
 Despite otherwise shining experience with Windows 7, we do feel obliged to report a few zingers it sent us during our days of testing. After changing themes, for instance, we found that the taskbar icons no longer worked until we reopened the windows. We also had Launcher.exe crash the first time we ran MotoGP 08, and some older software forced us out of Aero mode and into Windows Basic mode since it lacked support for it. So it goes. These are all minor inconveniences, and none of them significantly diminished our experience, or held us up from accomplishing anything important. Our biggest hang-up actually came from the wireless mouse included with HP’s Firebird, which sporadically stopped working every 10 minutes until we turned it off and on again.



Aero Peek:









What this is it gives you a preview of windows in a thumbnail without actually opening them by simply hovering over the icon in the taskbar. Click on one of them and you will be taken to that window, this also works with tabs in Internet Explorer which is very handy, but unfortunately it doesn’t work in Firefox or Chrome as yet
You can also move your cursor to the lower right corner of your screen to get a preview of your desktop, click and you will be brought to your desktop





Aero Shake:


If you have lots of windows open on your desktop and you only want to look at one, click and hold its window and shake it! All the other windows will minimize, simply shake the window again and all the other windows will restore.

Aero Snap:

One of the most useful features I use in Windows 7, If you click and drag a window up to the top of the screen it will automatically maximise itself. If you have two windows open, and want to view them side by side. Click and drag one to the right edge of the screen and the other to the left. They will both resize automatically to fit the screen

Aero Flip:

This Aero effect was in Windows Vista but not in XP. Activate it by pressing the windows key and tab at the same time. It will give you a 3D effect that will allow you to “Flip” between the different windows
Here is a video that I made on giving a walk through of the Aero features

Conclusion





With OS X Snow Leopard, innumerable different flavors of Linux and now Google’s own ChromeOS lining up to challenge Microsoft’s superiority in operating systems, its stranglehold on the market has never seemed more precarious. But let Windows 7 lay rumors of an OS coup d’état to rest. Like an old fascist dictator, Vista is officially dead and buried, and its successor is one you can actually warm up to. Microsoft has not only atoned for Vista’s grievances with vastly improved performance and fewer nags, a number of old standbys that no one was complaining about (like the task bar) have been reimagined and made better at the same time







Pros:
Painless installation
Quick boot times
Reimagined, clutter-free taskbar
Vastly superior gaming performance


Cons:
Some users will still crave more customization
Windows XP still outshines on older systems

Migrant SCs, STs, OBCs not entitled to reservation: SC






Migrant SCs, STs, OBCs not entitled to reservation: SC


SCs, STs and OBCs cannot claim the benefits of reservation if they migrate from one state to another if the caste/tribe to which they belong are not recognized as a reserved community in the adopted state, the Supreme Court has ruled.


Further, a migrant SC or ST also cannot claim a reserved status in OBC quota in another state, the apex court said.


"Persons belonging to a particular caste or tribe may suffer disadvantages in one state but may not suffer the same disadvantages in the other. Our Constitutional scheme, therefore, seeks to identify the social and economic backwardness of people having regard to the state or union territory as a unit.


"The same principle applies to even minorities as has been laid down by an eleven-judge bench of this court in T M A Pai Foundation and others case," a bench of Justices S B Sinha and Cyriac Joseph observed.
The apex court made the remarks while dismissing pleas by certain migrant SC, STs candidates challenging the refusal of the Delhi administration to grant them benefits of reservation in Government jobs.

Swine Flu (Swine Influenza A (H1N1) Virus)






what is swine flu H1N1?

The swine influenza A (H1N1) virus that has infected humans in the U.S. and Mexico is a novel influenza A virus that has not previously been identified in North America. This virus is resistant to the antiviral medications amantadine (Symmetrel) and rimantadine (Flumadine), but is sensitive to oseltamivir (Tamiflu) and zanamivir (Relenza). Investigations of these cases suggest that on-going human-to-human swine influenza A (H1N1) virus is occurring.

What are the symptoms of swine flu?

Although uncomplicated influenza-like illness (fever, cough or sore throat) has been reported in many cases, mild respiratory illness (nasal congestion, rhinorrhea) without fever and occasional severe disease also has been reported. Other symptoms reported with swine influenza A virus infection include vomiting, diarrhea, myalgia, headache, chills, fatigue, and dyspnea. Conjunctivitis is rare, but has been reported. Severe disease (pneumonia, respiratory failure) and fatal outcomes have been reported with swine influenza A virus infection. The potential for exacerbation of underlying chronic medical conditions or invasive bacterial infection with swine influenza A virus infection should be considered.

Swine Flu (cont.)

Infection Control

Recommended Infection Control for a non-hospitalized patient

1. Separation from others in single room if available until asymptomatic. If the ill person needs to move to another part of the house, they should wear a mask. The ill person should be encouraged to wash hand frequently and follow respiratory hygiene practices. Cups and other utensils used by the ill person should be thoroughly washed with soap and water before use by other persons.

Antiviral Chemoprophylaxis

For antiviral chemoprophylaxis of swine influenza A (H1N1) virus infection, either oseltamivir or zanamivir are recommended. Duration of antiviral chemoprophylaxis is 7 days after the last known exposure to an ill confirmed case of swine influenza A (H1N1) virus infection. Antiviral dosing and schedules recommended for chemoprophylaxis of swine influenza A (H1N1) virus infection are the same as those recommended for seasonal influenza:

Antiviral chemoprophylaxis (pre-exposure or post-exposure) with either oseltamivir or zanamivir is recommended for the following individuals:

1. Household close contacts who are at high-risk for complications of influenza (persons with certain chronic medical conditions, elderly) of a confirmed or suspected case.

2. School children who are at high-risk for complications of influenza (persons with certain chronic medical conditions) who had close contact (face-to-face) with a confirmed or suspected case.

3. Travelers to Mexico who are at high-risk for complications of influenza (persons with certain chronic medical conditions, elderly).

4. Border workers (Mexico) who are at high-risk for complications of influenza (persons with certain chronic medical conditions, elderly).

5. Health care workers or public health workers who had unprotected close contact with an ill confirmed case of swine influenza A (H1N1) virus infection during the case's infectious period.

Antiviral chemoprophylaxis (pre-exposure or post-exposure) with either oseltamivir or zanamivir can be considered for the following:

* Any health care worker who is at high-risk for complications of influenza (persons with certain chronic medical conditions, elderly) who is working in an area with confirmed swine influenza A (H1N1) cases, and who is caring for patients with any acute febrile respiratory illness.

* Non-high risk persons who are travelers to Mexico, first responders, or border workers who are working in areas with confirmed cases of swine influenza A (H1N1) virus infection.

How is swine flu (H1N1) diagnosed?

Swine flu is presumptively diagnosed clinically by the patient's history of association with people known to have the disease and their symptoms listed above. Usually, a quick test (for example, nasopharyngeal swab sample) is done to see if the patient is infected with influenza A or B virus. Most of the tests can distinguish between A and B types. The test can be negative (no flu infection) or positive for type A and B. If the test is positive for type B, the flu is not likely to be swine flu (H1N1). If it is positive for type A, the person could have a conventional flu strain or swine flu (H1N1). Swine flu (H1N1) is definitively diagnosed by identifying the particular antigens associated with the virus type. In general, this test is done in a specialized laboratory and is not done by many doctors' offices or hospital laboratories. However, doctors' offices are able to send specimens to specialized laboratories if necessary.

What treatment is available for swine (H1N1) flu?

Although the greatest treatment for influenza infections in humans is prevention by vaccination, to date (June 2009), there is no vaccine available for swine (H1N1) flu. Ongoing work by several laboratories is likely to produce a vaccine later this year. Two antiviral agents have been reported to help prevent or reduce the effects of swine flu. They are zanamivir (Relenza) and oseltamivir (Tamiflu), both of which are also used to prevent or reduce influenza A and B symptoms. These drugs should not be used indiscriminately, because viral resistance to them can and has occurred. Also, they are not recommended if the flu symptoms already have been present for 48 hours or more. Severe infections in some patients may require additional supportive measures such as ventilation support and treatment of other infections like pneumonia that can occur in patients with a severe flu infection. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has suggested in their interim guidelines that pregnant females can be treated with the two antiviral agents.
