[AI] Instructions for the AI Bangalore meeting
Dear Access Indians of Bangalore: First of all, I would like to thank all of you for the overwhelming response to the idea of informal meeting. I am happy to let you know that we have not only reached 20 members, but in all likelihood, would far exceed the minimum figure. Now, we are all set to have our meeting this Saturday and for the sake of our convenience, I would like you to follow the instructions given below. 1 The meeting starts at 3.00 pm on Saturday, July 28 and so, it would be convenient if all of you could reach the venue by 02.50 pm just to clear off formalities early. Except a few of you who have work commitments, I think it should be ok with most of you. 2 As mentioned before, the venue is Hotel Ashreya International, Infantry Road, opposite to Police Commissioner's Office. For those coming from different localities, the best thing is to reach the Shivaji Nagar bust terminus and take an auto that won't cost you more than Rs 20. As the hotel is famous, it is much easier to ask for it near Shivaji Nagar. Please note that some busses do stop at Indian Express stop and is much easier to reach the venue from there, but pl make sure if the bus you board stops there. I will try and put out a detail route instruction by tomorrow. 3 Once inside the venue, you need to ask for Shantala 2, which is the name of the hall where our meeting is taking place. Before asking for help, please make sure if the person who you turn to help is part of the hotel or a stranger. Also, I would request you to be careful with your valuables. 4 As mentioned before, each person should pay Rs 150 as charges for the hotel. I request you to bring the money with you and pay to Ms Sundari of Mithra Jyothi who will be at the venue. If you can't pay, kindly inform me before Friday in the mobile number given below. 5 Some of you have cited your working hours and have asked if coming an hour or two late is alright. Since the meeting is largely going to be informal, it is alright, that is, only if you are held back at work. 6 Some of you have also wanted to know, if certain topics can be brought for discussion. I am sure one hour of our meeting time can be allotted for productive and serious discussion, that is, if this isn't objectionable to a majority of participants. 7 If you have any query or doubts please don't hesitate to get in touch with me at my mobile number. 8 If you want to participate, it isn't too late. Kindly let me know before Friday. I hope the instructions are sufficiently clear. Thanks to you all and looking forward to meeting you at the venue on Saturday. Warm rgds, L.

Re: [AI] Typing too much can damage judicial discrimin ation
Well Friends So it becomes clear that we have to make best out of limited sources if we have to remain at run in the race of this intensely competitive world. Admittedly, since we are visually challenged so we have no option but to tirelessly use computers and gadgets, which are acutely injurious for us. Hence, many of us our suffering from ear diseases; many from other diseases, which is not at all acceptable. I will not waste your time in writing about the omnipresent discrimination and tear jerky story; you people can add further to this. Resultantly, we are the ones who suffer the most. So do we not deserve anything like Domestic violence act? How many women are really sincere to use this act? I dont want a debate telling that men are crueler or women are; but I want to timidly tell that this act is being misused and women do not deserve it in all instances. World knows that women dont suffer as we; then why isnt there such an act for us? Tell me, tell me. I am convinced that many would mercilessly make my fun for my idiot question; but I dont care for it. I just asked what humanity made me to ask. Your friend Shadab Husain Why delete messages?

[AI] Intel Claims Breakthrough With 40Gbps Optical Chips
Intel Claims Breakthrough With 40Gbps Optical Chips Intel is close to creating chips that transmit data at high speeds using light instead of electrons. Sumner Lemon, IDG News Service Wednesday, July 25, 2007 6:00 AM PDT at high speeds using light instead of electrons, but products based on the technology appear to remain over the horizon. On Wednesday, a team of Intel researchers unveiled a laser modulator made of silicon that is capable of encoding data at speeds up to 40G bits per second (bps), a significant increase in speed for the company. The new modulator, which converts electrical data into light, opens the door to high-speed optical interconnects for computers and, when combined with 25 hybrid silicon lasers on a single chip, could be capable of transmitting terabits of data per second, wrote Ansheng Liu, principal engineer at Intel's Corporate Technology Group, in a blog post. Optical interconnects are desirable because fiber optics offer more bandwidth and carry data farther than copper, which is currently used to connect chips and move data inside a computer. Because they use laser light to transmit data, optical interconnects also eliminate the heat created by resistance as electrons pass through a copper trace. Liu did not offer any indication of when Intel's silicon-photonics technology will find its way into a commercial product, suggesting commercial products are at least several years away. Intel has been working on silicon laser modulators for some time, hoping to bring down costs by manufacturing these components with the same technology used to produce silicon computer chips. The company claimed its first breakthrough in 2004, with a 1GHz modulator the company claimed was 50 times faster than any other silicon modulator. The following year, Intel developed a modulator capable of encoding data at speeds up to 10G bps. The 40G bps speed achieved by the company's latest modulator matches the fastest modulators made using other, more expensive components, Liu said. http://www.pcworld.com/article/id,135042-pg,1/article.html Vikas Kapoor, MSN Id:[EMAIL PROTECTED], Yahoo+Skype Id: dl_vikas, Mobile: (+91) 9891098137.

[AI] Mozilla Admits Firefox Has Same Flaw as IE
Mozilla Admits Firefox Has Same Flaw as IE Mozilla chief security officer says Firefox has the same flaw that the company called a critical vulnerability in IE, patch is in the works. Gregg Keizer, Computerworld Tuesday, July 24, 2007 9:00 AM PDT wledged Monday that Firefox includes the same flaw that the company called a critical vulnerability in Internet Explorer during a two-week ruckus over responsibility for a Windows zero-day bug. Over the weekend, we learned about a new scenario that identifies ways that Firefox could also be used as the entry point, said Window Snyder of Mozilla. While browsing with Firefox, a specially crafted URL could potentially be used to send bad data to another application. We thought this was just a problem with IE, Snyder continued. It turns out, it is a problem with Firefox as well. The argument over responsibility for a flaw that involved both IE and Firefox began two weeks ago, when Danish researcher Thor Larholm argued that IE contained an input validation bug that passes potentially malicious URLs to other applications. Larholm called out Firefox's firefoxurl:// protocol as one that IE mishandled. He staked out the position that IE was to blame, while other security experts said it was Firefox's fault. As fingers pointed, Mozilla patched the IE-Firefox interaction bug by releasing an update, Version 2.0.0.5. Even so, Snyder and others continued to argue that IE was the problem. Microsoft needs to patch Internet Explorer, Snyder said last Wednesday. That same day, Asa Dotzler, director of community development, contrasted what he said were the differences between Microsoft and Mozilla on the bug. We think it's Firefox's job to ensure that users are protected from malicious Web sites when they're surfing the Web in Firefox. Apparently, Microsoft doesn't think the same for IE, Dotzler said then. Friday, Jesper Johansson, a former Microsoft security strategist but now a security program manager at Amazon.com Inc., spelled out how Firefox was as guilty as IE of failing to validate input. In a post that leaned on the metaphor of glass houses, Johansson showed how Firefox passes potentially malicious URLs to other applications, including the multiple-service instant messaging client Trillian. Firefox is subject to the exact same flaw that they blame on IE. Firefox also does not escape quotes in URLs before it passes them on to protocol handlers, he said. Snyder did not credit Johansson by name for alerting Mozilla to the Firefox bug, but she admitted that the flaw should have been spotted. We should have caught this scenario when we fixed the related problem in 2.0.0.5, she said. She did not specify when a patch would be issued, but one is in the works, according to an entry in Bugzilla. http://www.pcworld.com/article/id,135013-pg,1/article.html Vikas Kapoor, MSN Id:[EMAIL PROTECTED], Yahoo+Skype Id: dl_vikas, Mobile: (+91) 9891098137.

Hey Amiyo, Imran is correct and you cannot even read large documents in your mobile such as E-books as you've already mentioned. I have experienced it an found it very irritating. If You want a portable device to read books as sitting on computers for long period is tiring. Why dont you convert those texts into audio format with the help of Kurzweil or Open book and Scan and load them in an Mp3 player. Hope this suggestion helps.

[AI] Life lessons from Dr Kalam
Hi folks, below pasted article was taken from rediffmail. I wanted to know from list members that how Abdul Kalam sir personally inspires our community. starting from me: He is the person who new the potentiality which is hidden among differently able persons. I usually listen his speeches which brings some kind of confidence in me to achieve my goal. looking forward from members. with regards Life lessons from Dr Kalam Sachin Lele July 25, 2007 It was an unexpected choice, but one that filled the nation with pride and joy. In the five years since Dr Avul Pakir Jainulabdeen Abdul Kalam took residence at Rashtrapati Bhavan [Images], he has been nothing short of inspirational. The man who is synonymous with India's space programme soon became synonymous with India's sense of pride, particularly for its youth. I love the fact that he is one man you cannot conveniently categorise. After all, how do you slot someone whose favourite pastime includes reading the Bhagvad Gita even though he is a devout Muslim? A remarkable self-made scientist who pens poetry in Tamil and plays the veena in his leisure time? A president who retained his fashionably long locks? This is what I have learnt from the person I think has been one of India's most interesting leaders in recent times: 1. Humility and modesty These attributes come naturally to those concerned with causes far greater than personal gain. India's first attempt at launching the Satellite Launch Vehicle met with failure. At that point, Dr Kalam took responsibility for his colleagues and juniors and became answerable for what went wrong. When the second attempt succeeded and took India into the space age, he stepped aside and let his colleagues take credit for this grand achievement. Attempting something this selfless requires dedication to the achievement of a larger goal; it is the final goal that matters, not who takes the credit for the achievement. Over time, I have tried putting a lot more emphasis on the task at hand, and on its flawless execution. Also, in my small way, I look out for people at work or in my personal space, while taking part responsibility for their actions. Dr Kalam was embarrassed by public acclaim to the extent that that he did not like being called Bharat Ratna Dr Kalam. He even gently reminded the directors at the Defence Research and Development Organisation to not refer to him as Bharat Ratna; he did this by having a circular sent across through the DRDO headquarters that civilian awards cannot be used as titles! This, in today's world, where we mostly see people chasing titles and designations simply to flaunt them to their peers. In my personal space too, the people I respect the most are the ones who are low-profile in these matters. It is almost immediately endearing when you come across people like these. 2. Respect Dr Kalam has the utmost respect for everyone he interacts with. He even treats and talks to kids as his equals, and respects their opinions. I know of instances where he refers to professors as 'Professor X' and means it with respect. He attaches great importance to their knowledge and experience; even though he might have achieved a lot than they have, he believes there is a lot to learn from each of them. Not being judgemental, respecting elders, teachers, professors and looking beyond caste, race, age and colour have taken on a whole new meaning in today's society. Over time, I have realised that the people who respect others the most are the ones who are the most respected. 3. Spirituality It might surprise a few people that a space scientist can be so spiritual. Dr Kalam recites the Gita and the Quran better than some of the more renowned spiritual 'gurus' of today. He believes in the strength of virtues and values, and the role they play in shaping the youth and society in these times. A complete vegetarian, a teetotaller and a bachelor, Dr Kalam's spirituality seems to be driven by practicality in a world where these attributes might be frowned upon. It's clear that he respects other religions, and has done his best to understand them -- something that a lot of us need to imbibe ourselves. 4. Being yourself The pressures and expectations of the presidential post never got to Dr Kalam. The usual full-sleeved blue shirt, the long grey hair, and various 'Kalam-isms' like 'Fantastic!', 'Funny guys, why did they do that?' and 'What's happening?' have made it to many parts of the Rashtrapati Bhavan. In this case, the person changed the place, rather than the place changing the person. Situations never changed the person Dr Kalam was. He is disarmingly approachable to students, civilians and politicians. It is this genuineness that makes us all individuals in the first place. I try keeping that in mind when I get flustered by grand or formal situations. I no longer constantly bother about how I speak or dress, thanks to a

Friend, Security administration is fundamentally administration, of course pertaining to Security. Yes it will mean a lot of interaction with law and order enforcement agencies. As you are aware, I was getting another job as Corporate Quality Head but that was at Kolkata. This assignment will let me remain at Jamshedpur and strengthen NAB's Jharkhand Branch further. Community Services too reports to my new Chief and hence a potential to leverage for NAB. My Boss's Boss happens to be DMD Corporate Services. To give you an example of what can be done for NAB in future, I am getting Sports Cafe inaugurated at JRD Sports Complex tomorrow which will lead to the employment of 2 persons with visual impairment straight away. This quick allotment to was due to new contacts. You saw some other ventures like that during your last visit to Jamshedpur. Come again after an year and you will see what being a Gorkha means to our community at Jamshedpur. By the way, my past is not going to leave me and I am expected to flood the new area with improvement initiatives such as value engineering and Six Sigma projects. In fact this is the major expectation of my new Boss.
