Re: [AI] DAISY books
Hello, Where does your friend stay? NAB Delhi has prepared some daisy books in Hindi. Some other organisations also have daisy books in Hindi. The NAB books are quite good.

Re: [AI] Member's Gender.
Hello, I have changed the subject line for focussing on the last thread. First, let me tell you that I am a man. Names may be confusing at times. Names like Kiran and Kanchan may be both male and female names in India. It depends on the language and custom of the particular region. As far as my name is concerned, if I spell my name as Amiya, it becomes equivalent for both male and female names in Bengali. So I always spell it as Amiyo. Amarjit in Bengali sounds a male name. So, she must not be offended if somebody is confused, and I am sure, she is not. I have seen that Punjabi people do not distinguish between male and female names. We, Bengali people, are used to calling girls by names ending with an "aa" or with an "ee" sound. I appreciate the Sikh Punjabi tradition of using same type of names for boys and girls and indicating a girl's name with a "Kaur". Best regards, Amiyo Biswas.

Re: [AI] Two-dayNationalConferenceon'DisabilityandDisenchantment:NewChallenges and Evolvingdirections'
Hai Rajesh: On a lighter note, I request you not to reveal "certain trade secrets" of some professionals by talking about loftier things like "productivity". After all, in times of recession and job cuts, "Productive employee" is the only cloak (or mask if you like) which one likes to wear even though he or she may be actually worrying about the axe!!! Secondly, on a serious note, "Productive employee," when you come to think of it, is a myth any way. I say this because there are no clear yardsticks for any job and people generally go by output or result. Take my job for example, given the amount of creative or communicative work I am supposed to do in comparison with people in other industries, I'm certainly productive. But, mind you, the work flow isn't even reasonably constant. Sometimes, you are drowned in it, other times you have nothing productive but just stifling hard yawns in the afternoon. Now tell me what standards one can adopt to measure someone's productivity. In the final analysis, we are not talking about machines but humans so any result-oriented approach, even in the case of an able-bodied person, is unlikely to be convincing. And may be, just may be, that's why some bosses don't cease to be hard on their subordinates!!

Well, first of all, employability of blind, and blindness being a disability are two different issues, I think. True, that with technology, blind can and do work, but does this mean that they have ceased to be disabled? The attitude of Alberta government is curious, to say the least... Now, I think a particular impairment, does limit the general functionality of a person, even under most utopian conditions, and the impairment is transformed into an inability which we conveniently call a disability, though personally I do not agree with the word and would like to call it: "inability." This transformation of an impairment into inability happens as a result of a host of operating factors including but not limited to, structural barriers, attitudinal dogmas, haphazard designs, and above all, particular context and situation. So, even if in a given context, like employment, the inability resulting from impaired/absent eyesight may be reduced to varying extent, we have to accept that: 1. this reduction of inability is not cent percent and as a general rule, a fully productive blind employee remains a myth barring some highly adapted job profiles, and 2. whatever reverse transformation of inability into ability, is limited to a given context, and if we see life as a whole, a person with blindness surely is a person with disability, or rather with inability, and so should not be grudged some compensatory benefits even in areas where that inability is not hindering his participation to a considerable extent. I don't know whether I have been able to make myself clear enough, but am open to further exchange of ideas on or off the list about this issue. To sum up, I would term Alberta government's de-categorization of blind as non-disabled as tragic flaw and maybe, a trend setter for such callous policies here in India as well, as we are masters in the art of copying and pasting whatever is adopted in west. God forbid, such a thing happened in US, and next year you would not see any reservations being made for persons with disabilities here as well. And, yes, to carry forward Albertan logic to its logical conclusion, we may characterize orthopedically handicapped as nondisabled once we provide them wheel chairs, and deaf as fully functioning as soon as they have hearing aids free...

Although many acts passed, many judgements favoured our status and many seminars organized, I don’t find enough change in visually challenged life. For instance let us take the issue of coins used in India: Few years ago they are easy to be recognized by blind people. Now it becomes strenuous even for sighted. Much difference is not observed between Rs 5 & 50 Np, and 1 rupee & 2 rupee coins. What I feel is the Government is not considering the interest and needs of visually challenged. They can mint the coins in different shapes like square and 10 paisa coins which are left behind. I humbly request all access Indians prepare a mail and send it to the Government of india ie Finance ministry and the President. We can get their mail Ids at Goidirectory.nic.in Everyone should ask not to mint such coins again. If the Government wants to introduce new coin, the coin should be scrutinized by a team of the blind community. I hope you will respond well.

[AI] Indian-American scientist creates top web technology
The Hindu News Update Service News Update Service Monday, March 2, 2009 : 0940 Hrs Sci. & Tech. Indian-American scientist creates top web technology Washington (IANS): HashCache, the technological brainchild of a team of Princeton computer science researchers led by an Indian American scientist, has drawn recognition as a revolutionary way to expand internet access around the world. Created by a team of researchers headed by computer science professor Vivek Pai, the new efficient data storage system was featured as one of the top 10 emerging technologies of the year in Technology Review, a scientific magazine published by Massachusetts Institute of Technology. HashCache, features a new data-caching system that stores information more efficiently than current methods. By making internet access more affordable, HashCache has the potential to expand web use in developing regions around the world. "The whole point of HashCache is that it can be deployed in a very low-cost box," Pai explained. The development team includes PhD student and IIT-Madras graduate Anirudh Badam, computer science department chair Larry Peterson, computer science researcher Marc Fiuczynski and University of Pittsburgh professor Kyoung Soo Park. Because of its affordability, HashCache presents new opportunities for poorer regions to gain internet access. Instead of relying heavily on RAM, HashCache stores information from frequently visited web sites on a local hard drive so the data can be accessed directly. This system significantly increases the efficiency of internet data transfer, which can reduce the cost of maintaining a one-terabyte hard drive tenfold, Pai said. HashCache is "flexible," Badam noted. "We can implement it in cell phones, laptops or nearly any other hardware." Commercialisation is a consideration for the group, Pai noted, but the main goal is to release HashCache for practical and widespread use. Some plans even involve making the system free for nonprofit organizations and schools in developing countries that already have technology support. "I'm happy about the reception [of HashCache]," Pai said, adding that the acclaim the team has garnered provides evidence that the rift between high-end science and low-cost engineering is not as wide as it seems. Testing of the new caching system is currently underway at two deployment sites at the Kokrobitey Institute in Ghana and Obafemi Awolowo University in Nigeria. The Princeton University team will continue to explore ways to provide greater efficiency in web usage, including a planned project for systems that monitor people's behaviour to reduce slow connection speeds To unsubscribe send a message to accessindia-requ...@accessindia.org.in with the subject unsubscribe.

Re: [AI] Two-dayNationalConferenceon'DisabilityandDisenchantment:NewChallenges and Evolvingdirections'
Hi Rajesh and all, It must be said that provision of door-to-door transportation and access technology funding by the state eliminates the two major hurdles that prevent blind people from becoming employable. Jargon apart (whether blindness is a disability or a handicap is not of much practical significance), considering that the Alberta Government has taken steps to help blind people overcome these two limitations, don't you think its decision to scrap disability benefits is a step in the right direction? If the government takes the responsibility of finding jobs with appropriate accommodation for accessibility for all its blind residents of employable age upon itself, then where is the problem? Your point about the ability of a blind person to achieve 100% independent productivity is valid to a large extent; but is 90% or 80% productivity not better than 0%? Geetha - Original Message - From: "Asudani, Rajesh" To: Sent: Monday, March 02, 2009 1:01 PM Subject: Re: [AI]Two-dayNationalConferenceon'DisabilityandDisenchantment:NewChallenges and Evolvingdirections' Hi Amarjeet and all other friends After all, I am compelled to step in this highly curious exchange of ideas despite my initial reluctance. Well, first of all, employability of blind, and blindness being a disability are two different issues, I think. True, that with technology, blind can and do work, but does this mean that they have ceased to be disabled? The attitude of Alberta government is curious, to say the least... Now, I think a particular impairment, does limit the general functionality of a person, even under most utopian conditions, and the impairment is transformed into an inability which we conveniently call a disability, though personally I do not agree with the word and would like to call it: "inability." This transformation of an impairment into inability happens as a result of a host of operating factors including but not limited to, structural barriers, attitudinal dogmas, haphazard designs, and above all, particular context and situation. So, even if in a given context, like employment, the inability resulting from impaired/absent eyesight may be reduced to varying extent, we have to accept that: 1. this reduction of inability is not cent percent and as a general rule, a fully productive blind employee remains a myth barring some highly adapted job profiles, and 2. whatever reverse transformation of inability into ability, is limited to a given context, and if we see life as a whole, a person with blindness surely is a person with disability, or rather with inability, and so should not be grudged some compensatory benefits even in areas where that inability is not hindering his participation to a considerable extent. I don't know whether I have been able to make myself clear enough, but am open to further exchange of ideas on or off the list about this issue. To sum up, I would term Alberta government's de-categorization of blind as non-disabled as tragic flaw and maybe, a trend setter for such callous policies here in India as well, as we are masters in the art of copying and pasting whatever is adopted in west. God forbid, such a thing happened in US, and next year you would not see any reservations being made for persons with disabilities here as well. And, yes, to carry forward Albertan logic to its logical conclusion, we may characterize orthopedically handicapped as nondisabled once we provide them wheel chairs, and deaf as fully functioning as soon as they have hearing aids free...

Subject: [AI] Information required regarding mobility training.
Hi friends,
hope all are doing great!
I would like to have information, which would be the best place for
females for mobility training?
What about accommodation, is it provided by the institutions?
Will it make any difference where the training is taken, in terms of good
techniques and professional trainers, to be well trained?
Awaiting your precious replies.
Thanking you all in anticipation.

Re: [AI] Two-dayNationalConferenceon'DisabilityandDisenchantment:NewChallenges and Evolvingdirections'
Hi Roopakshi. the session on gender starts at 11-30 AM , and goes up to 1-15pm. to Vidya. it would be nice if you go through the schedule ones again, and then make conclusions. and of course we are also awair of the kind of seminars that keep on happening on disability. we were trying to say that the seminar organized in JNU is the first of its kind initiated in a prime national institution of higher education, and that in itself is an achievement, as it should be able to facilitate greater theorization of the entire issue. for your information, let me repeat, this seminar is organized by the JNU Equal Opportunities Office and the JNU Visually Challenged Forum. however it doesn't mean that only Visually challenged are involved. there are people from different backgrounds.

Hello, I have changed the subject line for focussing on the last thread. First, let me tell you that I am a man. Names may be confusing at times. Names like Kiran and Kanchan may be both male and female names in India. It depends on the language and custom of the particular region. As far as my name is concerned, if I spell my name as Amiya, it becomes equivalent for both male and female names in Bengali. So I always spell it as Amiyo. Amarjit in Bengali sounds a male name. So, she must not be offended if somebody is confused, and I am sure, she is not. I have seen that Punjabi people do not distinguish between male and female names. We, Bengali people, are used to calling girls by names ending with an "aa" or with an "ee" sound. I appreciate the Sikh Punjabi tradition of using same type of names for boys and girls and indicating a girl's name with a "Kaur". Best regards, Amiyo Biswas.

Re: [AI] How to upload a file on to send space?
Hello, When you have logged in, activate the upload link. The new page will have some form fields. The first field will be the edit box for file upload with the title "Select file* (up to 300MB)". You can type in the entire path of the file, say d:\goutam.pdf Or, you can press enter on the browse button just below it and locate the file on your hard drive. Once you select the file, focus will return to the upload page with the path written in the file upload edit box. Below it is another edit box for an optional description of the file. Next is a checkbox checked by default. It ensures that the link for the uploaded file is sent to you by email. Leave it checked. There is another field for the recipient's email address. you can put an email address here and if it is a valid one, the links will be posted to that address. Then hit enter on the upload button. Wait a few seconds and a progress metre will come up showing progress of the upload. You will have to use jaws cursor to monitor it. But don't open any other site or activate any other link while this upload process is going on. It will terminate the upload. Once the upload is complete, a fresh page will automatically apeear with the new link. It will be posted to you also by email. Notice that the page and the new email will contain links for retrieving and deleting the file. So be careful. Also note that if you are not logged in, you have to agree to the terms and conditions by checking a checkbox. The fields I have mentioned may not be in this order. Give it a try and you won't find it difficult. Best regards, Amiyo Biswas. Cell: +91-9433464329 Skype ID: amiyo11 Best regards, Amiyo Biswas.

Re: [AI] Two-dayNationalConferenceon'DisabilityandDisenchantment:NewChallengesand Evolvingdirections'
How about you going through the schedule again and letting the list know the names of the speakers representing disabilities other than blindness? And again for your information, I have transcripts of some other conferences organized by the Equal Oppurtunity Office, even though the number of resource persons who are themselves disabled, was negligent. If you think you will be speaking in a conference first of its kind, may be you need to brush up your information of such conferences. - Original Message - From: "Mahesh Panicker" To: "Geetha Shamanna" ; Sent: Monday, March 02, 2009 2:28 PM Subject: Re: [AI]Two-dayNationalConferenceon'DisabilityandDisenchantment:NewChallengesand Evolvingdirections' Hi Roopakshi. the session on gender starts at 11-30 AM , and goes up to 1-15pm. to Vidya. it would be nice if you go through the schedule ones again, and then make conclusions. and of course we are also awair of the kind of seminars that keep on happening on disability. we were trying to say that the seminar organized in JNU is the first of its kind initiated in a prime national institution of higher education, and that in itself is an achievement, as it should be able to facilitate greater theorization of the entire issue. for your information, let me repeat, this seminar is organized by the JNU Equal Opportunities Office and the JNU Visually Challenged Forum. however it doesn't mean that only Visually challenged are involved. there are people from different backgrounds.

Well, first of all, employability of blind, and blindness being a disability are two different issues, I think. True, that with technology, blind can and do work, but does this mean that they have ceased to be disabled? The attitude of Alberta government is curious, to say the least... Now, I think a particular impairment, does limit the general functionality of a person, even under most utopian conditions, and the impairment is transformed into an inability which we conveniently call a disability, though personally I do not agree with the word and would like to call it: "inability." This transformation of an impairment into inability happens as a result of a host of operating factors including but not limited to, structural barriers, attitudinal dogmas, haphazard designs, and above all, particular context and situation. So, even if in a given context, like employment, the inability resulting from impaired/absent eyesight may be reduced to varying extent, we have to accept that: 1. this reduction of inability is not cent percent and as a general rule, a fully productive blind employee remains a myth barring some highly adapted job profiles, and 2. whatever reverse transformation of inability into ability, is limited to a given context, and if we see life as a whole, a person with blindness surely is a person with disability, or rather with inability, and so should not be grudged some compensatory benefits even in areas where that inability is not hindering his participation to a considerable extent. I don't know whether I have been able to make myself clear enough, but am open to further exchange of ideas on or off the list about this issue. To sum up, I would term Alberta government's de-categorization of blind as non-disabled as tragic flaw and maybe, a trend setter for such callous policies here in India as well, as we are masters in the art of copying and pasting whatever is adopted in west. God forbid, such a thing happened in US, and next year you would not see any reservations being made for persons with disabilities here as well. And, yes, to carry forward Albertan logic to its logical conclusion,

Re: [AI] Two-dayNationalConferenceon'DisabilityandDisenchantment:NewChallenges and Evolvingdirections'
Good morning Geetha and all Of course, any productivity is better than none, and all of us must strive for it. However, I think here we are confusing disability status and disability benefits as they are available in countries like USA or Canada. It is surely warranted to take employed blind persons off the roles of social security in those countries, more so as government itself is providing employment accessibility and all. However, in our country, such disability benefits are out of question, and out of question is government itself providing accessible employment to all employable. I think there, the term disability is synonymous with unemployability. If so, blind do surely need to be out of its purview. However, as I said, disability/inability has to be conceptualized contextually, and so, the status of a person as a person with a disability generally and in specific contexts has to be given due regard in those countries as well. Further, legally, do they take away protections by way of disability because a person is employable or is actually employed? These and some other are the points to be pondered over. Here, of course, situation is different as I said. Still, for the sake of argument, let us assume that government has made all the persons with blindness employed in an accessible way! Now, if you take away those persons out of the fold of persons with disabilities in India, and deny any concessions in transport income tax etc.., Do you think it is justified? Clearly not, because as I have already said, "An impairment transformed into inability has an all pervading impact on a persons life, and its reverse transformation into a neutral condition is only partial at best, and does not deliver such a person entirely from hardships". Moreover, taking off persons out of the purview of persons with disabilities legally, because of their employed status, has far reaching consequences.

Jargon apart (whether blindness is a disability or a handicap is not of much practical significance), considering that the Alberta Government has taken steps to help blind people overcome these two limitations, don't you think its decision to scrap disability benefits is a step in the right direction? If the government takes the responsibility of finding jobs with appropriate accommodation for accessibility for all its blind residents of employable age upon itself, then where is the problem? Your point about the ability of a blind person to achieve 100% independent productivity is valid to a large extent; but is 90% or 80% productivity not better than 0%?

Re: [AI] Naib Tahsildar
Hello Kanchan The name of tahaseeldar in Rajasthan remains elusive despite my searches... However, I vaguely remember he was posted in some training institute for state revenue department or so, and not in a regular office work. Regarding job profile of tahaseeldar/naib tahaseeldar, he/she is a officer of state revenue department entrusted with executing the schemes at the taluka level. As such, the work may comprise of supervising the schemes, issue of various certificates, ensuring post disbursement supervision of utilization of allocated funds for various works, approving proposals/notes based on supporting file documents in print/handwriting, etc. The work is performed in well lit and ventilated offices!!! and requires outdoors visits sometimes. Job requirements may include: reading writing sitting standing etc... However, most of the file work at the state level is in local language and due to non availability of reading/scanning technology in local language, computers/scanners may only be of very limited use. So, we may say that a totally blind person can perform the work with reasonable accommodation if such reasonable accommodation includes live assistance in the form of a clerical assistance. I think providing live assistance full time may be construed disproportionate burden as the post is class ii at the taluka level, and all said and done, a totally blind person is not in a position to verify the numbers etc. which constitute an indispensable part of revenue work at taluka level. So, we may insist on a totally blind person performing the work effectively only when clerical assistance is provided adequately, and nature of work entrusted is safe enough to warrant dispensing with cross verification of data.

Re: [AI] Naib Tahsildar
So at this stage can I concede the point that the work of a Naib Tahsildar cannot be done by the totally Blind? Of course in tomorrow's matter I am only fighting for compensation for not declaring the results of a candidate. Therefore I wont have to get into the issue. The problem is that while identifying the post we too have identified Naib Tahsildar for Low Vision and not Blind.Is this realistic or too pessimestic? The other issue is that of Partially Sighted . The govt will have to remove that reservation but they will only put it for the Low Vision and not for the Blind. In the meantime Rajesh please send me your disability certificate. Thanks for the prompt responses. Waiting for other thoughts on the issue.
