[AI] Apple announces Windows browser
Apple announces Windows browser Apple developers conference Thousands of developers are attending the conference Apple has launched a version of its web browser Safari for Windows, competing head to head with Microsoft's Explorer and Mozilla's Firefox. Chief executive Steve Jobs said Apple "dream big" and wanted to expand the 4.9% market share Safari enjoys. Mr Jobs was speaking at a conference of developers for Apple products in San Francisco, California. He said Safari was "the fastest browser on Windows", saying it was twice as fast as Internet Explorer. A test version of Safari 3 for Windows XP, Vista and Apple Macs running OSX, is available for download from the Apple website. Apple is hoping to replicate the success of iTunes, which has proved enormously popular on both Macs and Windows machines. "We think Windows users are going to be really impressed when they see how fast and intuitive web browsing can be with Safari," said Mr Jobs. Mr Jobs used the conference to lift the lid on new features of its forthcoming operating system (OS) for Macs, called Leopard. Stacks desktop He said the OS has 300 new features and demoed 10, including a new organisational system for the desktop called Stacks and a new folder system which lets users browse files and applications visually, just as music lovers can browse album covers in iTunes. He also unveiled Quick Look, a feature which lets users preview files, such as movies, photos and documents, without having to open up a related application. For example, users will be able to preview a movie file without having to open up QuickTime. Leopard is due for release in October and will cost $129. JupiterResearch analyst Michael Gartenberg said the new features would give developers "the tools to create the next generation of applications". Writing on his blog, he said: "Apple has once again taken their platform to the next step and given developers the framework they need. It also looks and feels really cool and perhaps that's even more important." Mr Jobs also gave the greenlight to third-party development of new applications for its forthcoming iPhone mobile phone. In a u-turn from a previously stated policy, he said developers would be able to build web applications for the device that "extend the capabilities of iPhone... but keep the iPhone secure". Web standards Instead of having to test each and every new application themselves, Apple will allow developers to build web applications for the phone which run inside the device's web browser Safari and which were built on existing web standards. Games giant Electronic Arts were also on stage to announce a series of titles that would be released for the Mac. The latest Harry Potter game, Battlefield 2142, Tiger Woods, Need for Speed Carbon and Madden are all to be released for the plaform, in major boost to gaming on Macs. Games legend John Carmack, of Id software, also announced that the firm was working on an un-named project for Apple Macs, as well as other major platforms. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/6742439.stm Vikas Kapoor, MSN ID: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Yahoo ID: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Skype ID: dl_vikas Mobile: (+91) 9891098137.

Re: [AI] Fw: VACANCY - Lecturers - English, Hindi and Commerce - South Delhi
That is precisely the point. Advertisement in Hindustan times proves my point about fair norms of recruitment. Now, if in addition to this, the assistance of recruitment firm is sought, and it forwards a notice to all the interested/deserving, which is normally not done by financially motivated firms who offer candidates from their already existing clients, why should it be an eyesore to those who are well placed and perhaps oblivious of never ending struggle put up by those in search of livelihood plagued with a disability. Let us not forget the hard facts of life like: 1. Any so-called public advertisement is necessarily confined to a single local or at best national paper. 2. HR firms, as a rule, are financially motivated and offer their existing clients and never go out of the way to acquaint the eligible/desirable disabled candidates. 3. Legal hair splitting serves no purpose, and believe my friends, it is not our cup of tea to fight legal battles for every deviation from the norm, which incidentally in this case does not seem to have happened. 4. The beneficiaries of any assistance offered need not at all be subservient to the person offering the benefit, however, they also should not forfeit dignity while raising some issues or seeking clarifications or offering suggestions.

[AI] Accessibility in Delhi university:
Many of them have decided to give up their dream of attending college because of the disabled-unfriendly design and architecture of most Indian campuses. While some colleges are trying to turn things around, most are still a long way from being disabled-friendly. Disability doesn't daunt Joginder Saluja, but the inaccessibility of the campus that fetters his spirit. A second year student of BA at Delhi University's Khalsa College, Saluja represents Delhi in power lifting. ''Climbing stairs with crutches is tough. Being a power lifter, I can lift my body weight easily. Other disabled students pant after every two steps,'' says Saluja. Polio person now counsels other physically disabled students seeking admission in Delhi University. But not many are coming forward. In 2006, of the 1,000 reserved seats, only 350 were filled. For physically disabled students, the biggest battles are fought in the mind. DU aspirant: Rijul Kochhar, a Doon School alumnus, has scored 89 per cent in the Boards. A couple of years ago after an accident in the swimming pool, Rijul lost movement of all limbs and sensation below the neck. The DU aspirant is confident about obtaining a literature degree and specialising in international relations after graduation. ''I am very interested in the ways in which a country relates to another country or the way in which it interacts with its neighbours. ''The saga of socio-economic problems or the ways in which people interact with another set of people from the same culture and those who speak the same language,'' says Rijul. Sensitivity towards improving the built environment first came to the notice of Delhi University when the Election Commission made temporary ramps for disabled voters in the last general elections. In the past few years, the University Grants Commission (UGC) has woken up to the need for enhancing access for disabled people. Under the Ninth Plan, the commission has begun funding colleges to make accessible classrooms, washrooms and laboratories. The Kamala Nehru College has received Rs 2 lakh for building ramps and accessible toilets. St Xavier's in Mumbai, which has received a Rs 5 lakh grant, is planning to build ramps and construct wheelchair-friendly toilets. ''Access audits are on. So money is not a problem,'' said Komal Kamra, Reader, GTB Khalsa College. Ideal access: Chapter 8 of the Persons with Disabilities Act, 1995, talks about the responsibilities of the government for providing ideal access. It includes: List of 3 items Ramps for wheelchair users. The correct height-length ratio being 1:12. Big-enough washrooms for wheelchair movement with specially designed handrails. Guide blocks for the visually disabled and electronic boards and signage for the hearing impaired. list end But some feel much more needs to be done. ''Two ramps and one washroom does not make a campus disabled-friendly. As a society, we are yet to become more conscious of the needs of the disabled,'' maintained Soumitra Choudhury, Reader, Shri Ram College of Commerce.

Re: [AI] Fw: VACANCY - Lecturers - English, Hindi and Commerce - South Delhi
hi friends i dont understand why we r wasting our energy on such paty issues as this. first of all we should understand that ultimately some of us is going to get the benifits through employment, how many conseltency firms even consider pwds for placement? further more it is just the normal practice that placement agencies do not genrally disclose their clients name. anubhuti is trying to convince the people and follow the potential employers for placement of pwds. in the process if she earns some money whats wrong in that? she would also need to run her office. and otherwise also she is giving us proffessional service and profits if earn is very wel within the rules of the genral practices of the semelar nature, friends ultimately none other than us will b at loosing side. those who r rasing objections, r they the needy or elegible persons? why did u not write ur objections privately? why dont u want to c the positive side of it is it nesecery to look for faults always? since anubhuti has gave an answer which is satisfactory to a large extent as i feel we should close the argument as their r so many more important matters to b discussed on this forum. this group is ment to b helpful for all of us so pls my friends do not make this forum a grave yard for our selves. let this forum b problem solving forum and not problem creater.

[AI] sarkari naukri blog
Hello Accessindians There is a useful piece of information which I am sure would please job seekers. There is blog www.sarkari-naukri.blogspot.com run by a Delhi girl who takes trouble to systematically summarize and post employment notifications, including those for ph, many times a day. I wrote her a letter of appreciation, specially complimenting her for paying heed to such notifications for ph, or mentioning the fact of reservation for them, wherever applicable. She confessed that she too used to ignore such points, thinking them to be of little value. However, now, she does put them up on her blog. Let us compliment one and all, doing the good work, especially for the disabled, sorting out the legal points as and when necessary, but not targeting the individuals concerned as to sue them away.

Re: [AI] download Accelarator
Hi Renuka, I am using download accelerator for a long time. Once the download is complete, there is no problem. If the download remains incomplete, it has a .dap file extension. You can do nothing with it except resuming download. The .dap file should be in the default download folder, i.e. My Completed Downloads in My Documents. Open download accelerator from start menu and locate the .dap file using jaws cursor. Right click on it using jaws cursor again. The resume download menu will pop up. Just press enter on it and the download will resume. What about free download manager? Is it as fast as download accelerator? Best regards, Amiyo.
