[AI] vidio of the week: Blind painter!
http://www.karmatube.org/ *May 16, 2008* http://www.karmatube.org/videos.php?id=370 Blind Painter John Bramblitt lost his sight to epilepsy, but not his inner vision. The University of North Texas undergraduate shows how he managed to transform the anger he felt about his disability into art--developing a system of painting by touch, using his fingers in the place of eyes to create paintings of astonishing vibrancy. If I hadn't lost my sight, I don't think I would have become a painter, Bramblitt says. The whole point of beginning was symbolic--to prove that I could still see.

Re: [AI] Fw: Assembly polls: EVMs to have Braille option
Dear Geetha, Subramani the List, A strong representation from the List should go the State Election Commissioner as well as Chief Election Commissioner. They have defied the Supreme Court Order and also the Guidelines of the CEC on the subject. It shows how careless such an authority can be not only toward the disabled but also towards the rules, regulations and directives they should be following. I am enclosing the relevant order of the Supreme court and the CEC directive to all State Govt and Election Commissioners on the subject for your information. Using these, a strong case can be made out. warm regards Subhash Chandra Vashishth Advocate-Disability Rights 09811125521 On 5/16/08, Geetha Shamanna [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi Subramani, There has been no progress on this as yet.

Sreenivasa Murthy plea: Disabled people meeeting State Chief Electoral Officer M.N. Vidyashankar in Bangalore on Wednesday. BANGALORE: The Election Commission will issue directions to State Chief Electoral Officer M.N. Vidyashankar to ensure that all electronic voting machines (EVMs) to be used in the Assembly elections in the State have a Braille option. Over 50,000 EVMs will be used for polling in the State. Chief Election Commissioner N. Gopalaswami told The Hindu that EVMs with Braille option had been used in a few States. It should not be a problem to ensure that Braille number strips are pasted on the EVMs to be used in the polling stations in Karnataka as well, he said. His reaction came following a petition by a delegation of Karnataka Angavikalara Rajya Okkoota on Wednesday to Mr. Vidyashankar seeking a Braille option in the EVMs, and ramps for the disabled at polling booths. Now that this matter has been brought to our notice, suitable directions will be issued. Visually impaired people need not be dependant on any assistance while voting, Mr. Gopalaswami said. On the demand for ramps to enable disabled persons to get into polling stations on their own, he said, Polling stations will have ramps. This is mandatory. N.P. Ramachandra, Ramanagara district unit secretary of the okkoota who met Mr. Vidyashankar, said that disabled persons were usually manhandled by agents of political parties. It hardly costs Rs. 5 to insert Braille features on the EVMs. But it helps a visually challenged person to be independent of others while making a choice, he said. http://www.hindu.com/2008/04/10/stories/2008041055930100.htm To unsubscribe send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the subject unsubscribe.

[AI] Please give your comments on the DGCA's CAR for Air Travel of the Disabled People
Dear Friends Finally the 8th draft dated 24th April 2008 has seen the light of the day after the Ministry of Civil Aviation cleared it to become the new CAR Guideline on Carriage of People with Disabilities and People with Reduced Mobility effective 01st May 2008. *The New CAR is available at http://www.dgca.nic.in/cars/D3M-M1.pdf* I am attaching a brief assessment of the New CAR viz. Good Points and Issues that still needs to be addressed (Loop Holes). There might be few other areas that I might have left and you may be able to point them out. *I would request you to kindly provide your inputs so that we jointly can fight for rectifying the shortcomings together.* * * * * *Good Points included in the DGCA's New CAR * *effective 01 May 2008* 1. To remove confusion between People with disabilities/People with Reduced Mobility and Sick/medically ill passengers, the new CAR has defined the *Incapacitated Passengers as those with medical condition* and Persons with Reduced Mobility (PRM) and Persons with Disabilities (PwDs) as those whose mobility is impaired/reduced when using transport (Ref Section 3). 2. It mandates that no airlines will refuse to carry PwD/PRM and their assistive aids/devices, escorts *Guide Dogs*. 3. Emergency Evacuation procedures and Training on handling PwD/PRM shall be included in Airline's Training Safety manuals. 4. *Only trained persons shall be assigned to assist and handling* the passengers with disabilities. 5. All Airlines *will assist those who wish to travel alone without an escort (Ref. para 4.8)* 6. Barrier Free Access, accessible toilets and Assistance Booths close to the entrance (within visible proximity at arrival/departure terminals) with International symbol of Disability at the Airport are mandated in 4.10 7. No limit on number of PwD on a flight. Equal choice of seat allocation. 8. No medical Clearances of special forms shall be insisted from PwD/PRM. 9. All assistive aids shall be provided *without any extra costs *to the passengers. 10. Pwds/PRMs including Blind passengers shall not be restricted to any particular cabin or seating areas. *Guide Dogs are allowed in the Cabin* with prior information. 11. Individual briefing to PRM/PwDs /their escorts before take off by senior cabin crew of airline. Blind passengers to be provided *Braille brochures and large print brochures besides verbal briefing*. 12. Once ticket is confirmed, no further enquiries shall be made (Para 9.5). 13. In case of loss or damage to the mobility equipment during storage and handling, the airlines shall be liable for providing *suitable compensation.* 14. *Assistive Aids and Devices can be carried as hand baggage*in the aircraft (Ref: note to para 7.5) *15. *In-transit offloading- in case of overnight halt, the *accommodation provided should be accessible and barrier free.* *Issues that need to be addressed:* * * 1. Para 4.6 Passengers who declare independence in feeding, Communication with reasonable accommodation, toileting and personal needs are allowed to travel without escort. *This section is discriminatory against people who require some support in areas of feeding and personal needs etc and it gives a right to airlines to disallow the passengers to fly, if they don't declare independence. We feel that this para looses its relevance in light of para 4.8 which is an enabling and positive para. Thus in view of this para 4.6 should be deleted in toto.* 2. Para 4.9 -People not holding any Disability Certificate also to be given all facilities *but at a cost. – This is not acceptable since Government of India has so far has failed to provide Disability Certificates to all the disabled population and many do not go to obtain one due to ridiculous and time consuming procedures*. Hence, *this condition will adversely affect them for no fault of theirs. Also the Airliners have been providing free services to the elderly people who seek much more assistance and support that what a blind passenger might seek. Thus this would amount to discrimination on the basis of disability and we strongly recommend that no additional fee should be charged from any one*. 1. *Provisions* *regarding charges for Human assistance are not acceptable* as devised by 6.1 (a). By doing so the person with disability would be put on a disadvantageous position vis-à-vis his non-disabled counterparts and would amount to Discrimination on the basis of Disability and also against principle of reasonable accommodation thus contravenes Article 9 of UNCRPD. For ease of reference Definitions of both terms are appended along with Article 9 UNCRPD as *Annexure A.* 1. There is an inherent

If I hadn't lost my sight, I don't think I would have become a painter, Bramblitt says. The whole point of beginning was symbolic--to prove that I could still see.

Re: [AI] query on Talks.
Hello Sir, As per my knowledge, Talks works well with all the phones of symbian OS I mean second generation and third generation's phones. There are some more models in other companies but they are very very expensive. In N series, N 73/N73M and N 76 are quite good as the users say. They don't have the problem of hanging. I am using N73M and there is no such problem. I am using net on it very perfectly. No idea about menuals. Best Regards, On 5/17/08, Mahesh Panicker [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi list.

Re: [AI] accessible Mp3 converter?
You may convert to .mp3 or from it using the save as dialog box from within the sound forge file menu. --- Salman Khalid [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Dear group, I'm desperately searching for accessible converter to change the formats of different multimedia files. I've got some stuff in Mp4 and RM format which are only supported by real player. I know the sources to get Mp3 converters for this very purpose, but the real encumbrance is the accessibility issue! I've tryed couple of programs, but it was invain as usual for it sounded quite tricky with jaws. Could somebody please let me have some good source to have an accessible program to convert different media files into normal Mp3 format? looking forward to get a generous reply.. a bunch of thanks in advance Salman - Original Message - From: phani srikanth [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: accessindia@accessindia.org.in Sent: Friday, May 16, 2008 10:50 PM Subject: [AI] jaws and mozilla firefox problem in openning some lincks hi list i am using jaws 9, win XP and firefox 2.0.0.11. when i am brouzing some sights i am unable to open some lincks when i press enter or space bar on them. this is a strange problem in the april 2008 virtion of jaws. further i could open these lincks in jaws 8.0 and previous virtions. any solution to these problem is highly appritiated.

[AI] GPS, to lead us home and quickly
Date:18/05/2008 URL: http://www.thehindu.com/2008/05/18/stories/2008051855421200.htm Front Page GPS, to lead us home and quickly Anand Parthasarathy Desi players launch plethora of navigation products for lay customers Navigation for the rest of us. A choice of solutions is now available - and affordable - in India. Bangalore: The images being beamed hourly from Cartosat-2A and the Indian Mini Satellite (IMS-1), launched last month, may soon help us get from here to there by the shortest, best route. The week that saw these geographic images coming in also saw India's two leading players in the growing niche of global positioning satellite (GPS)-based navigation tools announce compelling extensions to their product range: between them, they have extended the reach and affordability of such solutions so that the rest of us - not just owners of pricey cars - can say, GPS, lead me home! Map offerings The Hyderabad-based SatNav Technologies has launched voice prompts in nine languages - Bengali, English, Gujarati, Hindi, Kannada, Marathi, Oriya, Tamil and Telugu - to augment its Satguide map offerings. These work with laptops, desktop PCs, hand-held computers and mobile phones which are GPS-enabled. The cost of mag guides ranges from about Rs. 1,200 for one city to Rs. 4,300 for 30 cities in India. If you don't have the GPS receiver, it can be had for around Rs. 5,000 ( www.satguide.in). MapmyIndia, based in Delhi, has extended its solutions to the GPS-enabled mobile phone, with the launch of iNav. It covers 18 major cities with detailed street-by-street maps, and helps to set up routes to 55,000 towns and villages. Buyers have the choice of paying a monthly Rs. 249 for the service or uploading the full map data to their phones for Rs. 1,200 (one State) or Rs. 4,500 for all India. Monthly subscribers would need an Internet connection with their phones to access the service ( www.mapmyindia.com ). The solution already comes preloaded on some Blackberry or Sony Ericsson phones in India. Handset makers like Nokia also offer dedicated navigation phones such as 6110 which come preloaded with navigation solutions for India. The latest 6210 Navigator, soon to be launched, includes a compass for pedestrian users. To unsubscribe send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the subject unsubscribe.
