Dear Mamta, I faced a similar problem yesterday while trying to access Yahoo mails through Internet Explorer. But there were no problems in accessing the same accounts through Firefox.

[AI] Query of Mr Tagore
Dear members, It is really boring to drag this matter for such a long period. In my opinion, merely by asking about a cite or blog cannot be a mistake. One must understand that asking about a cite is not a discussion. Moreover, if you really don't like it, just ignore it by deleting the message. I remember one of my friends here who very often used to say that "ignorance is the best medicine". I feel that already we have spent lots of time on this topic. In fact, if at all anyone says the cite or blog, using or not using is in your hands. I cannot insist my feelings on others. Will of knowing is the right of all human kinds irrespective of nation or culture in today's world. Why one should worry when he is not compelled to discuss the topic which he is not really liking?

Re: [AI] some books on political science.
Gentleman: Seriously speaking, what is the use of discussing this topic? Have you ever reflected how hobbling the consequences might be to us? For sighted people, all the books are available in the college libraries. Our impairment limits us, so we peruse the same books elsewhere. How can anyone call it illegal? Some buy books and then have the main pages of them xeroxed. The government should put a ban on it as well. IN this context, isn't xeroxing also illegal? Please pardon me if I sound disobliging, but I am sure that the book providers won't give a treat to us if we go to take their permission. As the moderator has prudently stated, let this topic die its natural death. I too feel: "We are blessed if we can restrain ourselves from doing harm to others even though we did no good deeds to anyone else.

[AI] help to return the trinidad and tobago blind welfare association back to the blind people
The trinidad and tobago blind welfare association was founded in 1914 by a blind person. its council is elected every 2 years and consist of 12 elected members and 6 appointed by the government. for the past 9 years the president mr. Dolsingh held no council meeting, no elections, no annual general meeting and did not do any audit of the financial transactions. i would appreciate it very much if you can email me your support to return the trinidad and tobago blind welfare back to a path of constitutional governance. the following is a step by step move we took recently to do so. thank you very much. kenneth suratt. 1. On January 8 2009 the executive officer met with a delegation of blind people and members of the past council members. 2. We agreed that election of a new council will take place on February 28 2009, and all constitutional requirements would be complied with. 3. On February 13 no notices were sent out by the executive officer. 4. As life member I took out a paid notice in the Trinidad Guardian stating the date, time, venue and the purpose of this meeting. 5. On February 28 all members of the T.T.B.W.A. who were interested attended to conduct the day's activities. 6. Last year we receive a list of the members of the T.T.B.W.A. from the executive officer which we obtained after enforcing the freedom of information act. 7. Those who were members started the meeting base on that list. 8. Mr. Peter Bourgeois was asked to chair the meeting. 9. A motion was moved to ratify all those who were in position of membership receipts as new members. This was unanimously agreed upon 10. Mrs Muriel Branker was ask to conduct the election., and the require 12 members of council were voted in. 11. On March 2nd2009 a delegation from the newly elected council met with the executive officer and she agreed to work with the new council, and set the date for the first council meeting. That meeting was carded to take place on Wednesday march 4th 2009 at 3 pm. 12. One hour before that council meeting the president Mr. Miguel Donawa received a letter from Mrs. Borneo that she would no longer be working with this council. While we trade legal opinions on the legitimacy of this council, please consider the will of the blind people. Thank you. ... KENNETH SURATT. Life Member. __ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

On January 8 2009 the executive officer met with a delegation of blind people and members of the past council members. 2. We agreed that election of a new council will take place on February 28 2009, and all constitutional requirements would be complied with. 3. On February 13 no notices were sent out by the executive officer. 4. As life member I took out a paid notice in the Trinidad Guardian stating the date, time, venue and the purpose of this meeting. 5. On February 28 all members of the T.T.B.W.A. who were interested attended to conduct the day's activities. 6. Last year we receive a list of the members of the T.T.B.W.A. from the executive officer which we obtained after enforcing the freedom of information act. 7. Those who were members started the meeting base on that list. 8. Mr. Peter Bourgeois was asked to chair the meeting. 9. A motion was moved to ratify all those who were in position of membership receipts as new members. This was unanimously agreed upon 10.

The Hindu News Update Service News Update Service Sunday, March 15, 2009 : 1645 Hrs Sci. & Tech. IBM develops a technology that will allow users to talk to web New Delhi (PTI): Giving a new dimension to the internet, the Indian research arm of the US-based IT giant IBM has developed a technology that will allow users to talk to the web and create voice sites using mobile phones. "People will talk to the web and the web will respond. The research technology is analogous to the internet. Unlike personal computers it will work on mobile phones where people can simply create their voice sites," IBM India Research Laboratory Associate Director Manish Gupta told PTI. For this technology, IBM has developed a new protocol -- Hyperspeech Transfer Protocol (HSTP) -- which is similar to the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP). "India now has over 360 million cell phone subscribers. Last month we added 15 million," he said pointing out that the research technology targets ordinary mobile phone users, all of whom may not be literate. The spoken web is a network of voice sites or interconnected voice and the response the company got in some pilot projects in Andhra Pradesh and Gujarat and the kind of innovations that people came up with were just mind-boggling, Mr. Gupta said.

I would like to see members contact the moderator directly if they have concerns about his decisions. I would like to emphasize the fact that many of us on the list despite our busy schedule take out our time to read crucial mails and respond to the appropriate ones and henceforth let us not clutter access India mailing list with personalized comments.

As I don't see any points favouring continuation of the topic including pornography amongst permitted topic for discussion, this thread is now closed. Hence, any such discussion shall be considered off topic posting in the future. There is one legal aspect as well, it would be necessary to indicate that the list would carry adult content. We have no intention whatsoever to do that. By and large, at the end of it, I am glad to see the maturity level of our members and aligning towards the cherished spirit of the list.

[AI] Plastic is out, fingerprints are in
Dear Friends, Last year when we were drafting the Banking guidelines there was a lot of discussion on this group on facility of cheques and how banks will allow the visually challenged to use cheques when there is no system of verification. At that time I had considered all the arguements and with the help of some deduction and taking into consideration alot of issues it was decided to let the Banks work thinks out for themselves and not constrain ourselves. At that time Finger print recognition technology was in experimental stage but was definitely there. I have to report to this group that after the IBA guidelines many branches of some Banks have started accepting cheques with thumb impression-I dont know how they do it but they do. Today I have heard of one branch starting some biometric verification. So in a way its nice to have pushed the Banks along. I am sharing a newspaper report from Business Standard which I had read more than a month ago and I dont know why nobody posted it to this group. Anyway it does not really affect us but the technology once available to one section of public can easily be availble to us. Its so very important that I had to share it with this group . Subject: Plastic is out, fingerprints are in http://www.business-standard.com/india/printpage_sam.php?autono=348623tp= Plastic is out, fingerprints are in Niladri Bhattacharya / Mumbai February 11, 2009, 0:50 IST Smart cards have been outsmarted as the country's largest lender, State Bank of India (SBI), has come up with a card-less transactions that requires only an account holder's fingerprints. The bank has decided to dispense with cards to lower the cost of transactions, particularly for the disbursement of social security pensions and wages under the National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme (NREGS). Under the new system, which is been implemented across the country, a point of sale (POS) machine, comprising bio-metric details of account holders would go to a particular village where the bank's customers can withdraw or deposit funds using the fingerprint-based method. Earlier, each account holder was given a card with a magnetic strip that was swiped at the POS machine before any transaction. The price of a smart card depended on its memory. For instance, 4GB cards cost Rs 75, whereas it costs Rs 140 for a 32GB card. Since the inception of the NREGS in 2004, SBI had disbursed around 1.6 million smart cards across the country, before deciding to shift to the new system a couple of months ago. "In the last two months, we have opened more than 400,000 accounts but we have not disbursed any smart cards thereby saving close to Rs 3 crore," said S Mukhopadhyay, deputy general manager in the bank's rural banking department. What has also helped the bank roll out the new system is the fact that 2 per cent of the no-frills account holders stepped out of their villages. Since most of the account holders only accessed the bank to receive the pension or the NREGS payment, a banking correspondent could easily go with a POS machine at periodic intervals to help them complete their transactions. "These villagers do not require inter-operability, which a smart card offers, since most of them use their accounts only once a month to avail of the NREG scheme, practically the accounts remained dormant for the rest of the month. Therefore, it was not cost-effective for the banks to carry on with cards," an SBI executive said. Other banks, however, have not shifted to card-less transactions. "Different banks use different technologies and we are sticking to a card-based system, at least for the time being," said an executive at a public sector bank executive.

Re: [AI] AccessIndia Digest, Vol 35, Issue 68
Dear Venkat I am fully conversant with the definition of the word: pornography as beside having a postgraduation in English, I happen to have it in Law and Psychology as well, and so, no confusing it with sex education. However, the terms like literary/artistic value, educational value are best left to judicial discretion in most of the cases as they are unnecessarily vague and are decided from case to case differently. Besides, pornography, as it stands, should be equally accessible to visually impaired as well, Visual impairment does not constitute a bond to live a sinless and a straight life. Moreover my friend, stimulation of sexual desire itself is a vital prerequisite for perpetuation of the species and all such material can and is used for constructive purposes. Accessibility, as I understand it, has for its purpose, minimization of impact of visual or any other disabling loss on all activities good or bad. -Original Message- From: accessindia-boun...@accessindia.org.in [mailto:accessindia-boun...@accessindia.org.in] On Behalf Of Venkat Devabattini Sent: Friday, March 13, 2009 4:23 PM To: accessindia@accessindia.org.in Subject: Re: [AI] AccessIndia Digest, Vol 35, Issue 68 Respected Access Indians, I am surprised when I read Rajesh sir's response to a query on pornography.

Creative activity (writing or pictures or films etc.) of no literary or artistic value other than to stimulate sexual desire He further says that the people who discussed it are respected and experienced persons then: *Don't they know that this is not a place to raise that topic? *Don't they know where that material is available?

Hi list members, I have previously asked about solution to one of my Gmail Id and its password and today repeating it again. I have created an email ID on Gmail. I took assistance from Google itself to bypass the captcha. ID was created successfully and I had reset my password. It works fine for two or three days and then shows the password error. I changed my password four to five times but problem is still there. Last time when I changed my password, I configured it with OE. It worked fine for two days but today again I am presented with the same error: "your user name/password is rejected". Any solution? Any suggestions/guidance is highly appreciated.

Re: [AI] query from thahir
Well, responding to my point about Indians shunning to describe even the essentials, you were found to dwell on cultural issues, so you say. So, may I construe your stand in this matter of superiority of Indian culture over western to imply that such omissions are justified? So curious!!! And Shadab you have also wrote: "But the one thing I am certain of is that pornography, from the standpoint of psychology, is wrong - not to talk about need. Haven't you studied it in your course?" So, Psychology is far from a precise natural science as you seem to imply by demanding a clear statement about pornography being wrong. Pornography may be harmful in some instances as it may encourage irresponsible or nonconsensual sex, but more often than not, it serves as bulwark against such activities by permitting a momentary ventilation to temporary passions without taking them out on unwilling and often unknowing persons. Hardly few rapists are active readers of pornography. And I still am at a loss to comprehend as to why the visual inability of a person should deprive him/her of all aspects of life. It is tantamount to saying, as many people say, that the blind should only recite bhajans and not romantic songs or even the sad songs for that matter. Hence, If the moderator, without determining the questions of culture/morals or blindness being a compulsion to be good/harmless, decides that the focus of this list does not permit giving out sites dealing with accessible pornographic material, then let it be so, but please do not harp on superiority of Indian or any other culture, or moral values of sexual forbearance, or blind being under an obligation to be saintly or asexual for that matter. I vividly remember an instance in my school life when four of my schoolmates were involved in fornication (termed forced sex) later, a question was raised in Maharashtra legislative assembly, as to how these foursome got into a theater and then into a lodge despite their blindness and committed the act??? Though remorseful about the event, we nonetheless regarded it as step towards integration and were more outraged at the stupid MLAs who truly reflected constricted mindset of society at large. And for those who are interested, the site http://the-clitoris.com is a beautiful and accessible site on feminine sexuality, and not clearly pornographic as it seems to be defined here.

I believe the question as such does come broadly under issues of accessibility. I can understand the arguements against this on the basis of too much of things for the list to handil and therefor the possibility of losing focus. but culture, Indian culture, well that is all together a different issue. ones morality, values are all shaped in the context in which one is brought up. that is different for different people. but the moment one says that his or her values are higher than that of some one else, then that is big trouble. in fact, that is the language of fascism. I certainly don't think access India is the forum for moral policing by any means. anybody have the freedom to access or not access pornographic materials, but I believe any questions on the matter should not be restricted on the basis of a culture based arguement, as that might end up supporting those elemends in the society, who are against tolerence and inclusivity. olso one must remember in this context, 'Kamasutra' was not authered by an American or a Europian, but by Vatsyayana, the great Indian sage. so on the basis of focus OK, but please, not that cultural thing.

[AI] apologies
Friends When I checked mail after a couple of days' gap today, I found some comments directly addressed to me so was compelled to reply to those comments... But, on the whole I feel I have needlessly indulged into the controversy of accessible pornography, as I find utter lack of understanding or maturity in most of those who discussed the topic. Moreover, I had made my stand clear in the very first mail of mine on Friday, so there actually was no need to add to it. The group has decided not to put up adult contents, hence, the mention of a site in my previous mail, though it is an educational one, does violate the bounds of this group, though I personally feel sharing accessible resources on any topic, until it constitutes a clear offence and is actually malignantly harmful, should not be forbidden. Anyway, I retract the mention of site before any moderatorial strictures to that effect, but reiterate my earlier stand on the topic of accessibility and legality.

At that time I had considered all the arguements and with the help of some deduction and taking into consideration alot of issues it was decided to let the Banks work thinks out for themselves and not constrain ourselves. At that time Finger print recognition technology was in experimental stage but was definitely there. I have to report to this group that after the IBA guidelines many branches of some Banks have started accepting cheques with thumb impression-I dont know how they do it but they do. Today I have heard of one branch starting some biometric verification. So in a way its nice to have pushed the Banks along. I am sharing a newspaper report from Business Standard which I had read more than a month ago and I dont know why nobody posted it to this group. Anyway it does not really affect us but the technology once available to one section of public can easily be availble to us. Its so very important that I had to share it with this group . Subject: Plastic is out, fingerprints are in http://www.business-standard.com/india/printpage_sam.php?autono=348623tp = Plastic is out, fingerprints are in Niladri Bhattacharya / Mumbai February 11, 2009, 0:50 IST Smart cards have been outsmarted as the country's largest lender, State Bank of India (SBI), has come up with a card-less transactions that requires only an account holder's fingerprints. The bank has decided to dispense with cards to lower the cost of transactions, particularly for the disbursement of social security pensions and wages under the National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme (NREGS). Under the new system, which is been implemented across the country, a point of sale (POS) machine, comprising bio-metric details of account holders would go to a particular village where the bank's customers can withdraw or deposit funds using the fingerprint-based method. Earlier, each account holder was given a card with a magnetic strip that was swiped at the POS machine before any transaction. The price of a smart card depended on its memory. For instance, 4GB cards cost Rs 75, whereas it costs Rs 140 for a 32GB card. Since the inception of the NREGS in 2004, SBI had disbursed around 1.6 million smart cards across the country, before deciding to shift to the new system a couple of months ago. "In the last two months, we have opened more than 400,000 accounts but we have not disbursed any smart cards thereby saving close to Rs 3 crore," said S Mukhopadhyay, deputy general manager in the bank's rural banking department. What has also helped the bank roll out the new system is the fact that 2 per cent of the no-frills account holders stepped out of their villages. Since most of the account holders only accessed the bank to receive the pension or the NREGS payment, a banking correspondent could easily go with a POS machine at periodic intervals to help them complete their transactions. "These villagers do not require inter-operability, which a smart card offers, since most of them use their accounts only once a month to avail of the NREG scheme, practically the accounts remained dormant for the rest of the month. Therefore, it was not cost-effective for the banks to carry on with cards," an SBI executive said. Other banks, however, have not shifted to card-less transactions. "Different banks use different technologies and we are sticking to a card-based system, at least for the time being," said an executive at a public sector bank executive. The cost-saving is not significant, added another banker To unsubscribe send a message to accessindia-requ...@accessindia.org.in with the subject unsubscribe.

Hai shilpa, generally, frame is different web pages on the single brouser. To navigate between frames press letter "m" when virtual cursor is on and you can use insert f9 for list of frames.
