Re: [AI] E speak with other languages?
If you need TTS for Arabic and Urdu then you can choose from available one. I really don't remember the name at this moment. But if you need a TTS which supports both Arabic and Gujarati scripts, then unfortunately there is no such TTS. By the way in either case you can still join eSpeak team to add support for Arabic and Gujarati scripts.

[AI] RBI circular about display of information of committees set up under national trust act in bank branches
Here is RBI circular on captioned subject having some bearing on multiplly disabled persons: RBI/2009-10/142 DBOD.No.Leg.BC. 37 / 09.07.005/2009-10 September 2, 2009 Display of information regarding Local Level Committees set up under the National Trust for the Welfare of Persons with Autism, Cerebral Palsy, Mental Retardation and Multiple Disabilities Act, 1999 All Scheduled Commercial Banks (Excluding RRBs) Please refer to paragraph 11 of our Master Circular DBOD.No.Leg.BC.9/ 09.07.006/ 2009-10 dated July 1, 2009 on Customer Service, wherein banks have been advised to rely upon the Guardianship Certificate issued either by the District Court under Mental Health Act, 1987 or by the Local Level Committees under the National Trust for the Welfare of Persons with Autism, Cerebral Palsy, Mental Retardation and Multiple Disabilities Act, 1999 (hereafter called Mental Disabilities Act) for the purposes of opening/ operating bank accounts by the legal guardians for persons with disability that is covered under the Act.

[AI] update on sharing books
Hi All, I had a discussion with Mr. Dipendra, who pointed out Rahul Cherian's view that as India has ratified UNCPD, if there is any case in court by publishers or authors, court will mostly decide in favour of us, and in that case it will become a law as court decision counts as law. But Mr. Dipendra also pointed out that, publisher's and author's cooperation is also needed, given the sheer number of books required. If we are able to convince Publishers and Authors (some of them have already lent their cooperation), then books can be made available at the same time they are published.

[AI] Now, A Single Jab That Could Prevent Blindness
timesofindia.indiatimes.com/ Now, single jab that could prevent blindness ANI13 October 2009, 11:25am IST A single jab can now prevent people from losing their vision, thanks to researchers at Trinity College Dublin, Ireland, who have developed a new method to inject drug into the blood by weakening the otherwise impermeable blood-retina barrier . The blood-retina barrier normally prevents molecules in the blood from reaching the retina. Presently, drugs to treat age-related macular degeneration, the leading cause of blindness in the west, have to be injected into the eyeball once a month, which can cause eye infections and even blindness in 1 out of 50 injections. But now, researchers led by Matthew Campbell have now restored the vision of mice by temporarily weakening the blood-retina barrier to let drug molecules injected into the blood slip through. Using a technique called RNA interference (RNAI); they could block the production of claudin-5-a protein that normally helps make the blood-retina barrier impermeable. "Its proof of principle," New Scientist quoted Campbell as saying. However, RNAI therapy is not yet safe enough for use in people, as it would breach the blood-brain barrier as well as the blood-retina barrier. The team is already working on a way to block claudin-5 production in the eye only. This method involves gene therapy using a modified virus that makes the RNA only in the presence of an antibiotic called doxycycline. With the novel approach, patients would need only one initial injection into their eye to deliver the virus. Then once a month they would take the antibiotic orally, and two days later the drug to treat blindness would be injected in their blood. By then the blood-retina barrier would be sufficiently weakened to allow the drug to pass through. Although the existing drugs to treat age-related macular degeneration would be too big to pass through the barrier, there are other molecules in development that are small enough. Some of these could be taken orally when the barrier goes down. The study has been published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences .

Re: [AI] Enjoy the independence-election accessibility
Hello! Yesterday's polling was an novel experience, atleast for me. I was in front of the EVM and After going through the list of candidates i just did not feel like casting my vote for any of them. so I asked the officer on duty what is the option. He very politely guided me to a register where i acknowledged that i have come to vote but do not wish to cast my vote. and thats it. This in effect means that we can actually vote for " none ". regards arvind On 10/14/09, Sameer wrote: > > No problems in Mulund (Mumbai).

Re: [AI] About Section 508
Dear Silpa I think your friend is referring to section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act, 1973. This is a U.S. statute and will not be applicable in India as such. Here are the details: Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act, 1973 amended substantially In 1998 is a landmark achievement of the campaign to ensure accessible Electronic and Information Technology (E&IT). Most federal agencies are, under this provision, required to "procure, develop, maintain and use" only accessible E&IT for their own use or for use by the public. What sets it apart from other civil rights statutes is the fact that affirmative obligations imposed on federal agencies are to be met well in advance of the occurrence of any discriminatory impact upon an individual with a disability. It also sets into motion a strong enforcement mechanism by calling for the establishment by covered agencies of complaint procedures for use by persons who claim their E&IT rights have been denied.

Re: [AI] how to resume download.
Hi, Once check out if the entire file has been downloaded. Recently I downloaded a file and it stopped at 51% and I downloaded the entire file again. But when I checked in that particular folder, much to my surprise, I found two files with the same content. That means, though the dialog box shows it as 51%, the file would have been downloaded. Actually, FDM has the resuming feature, and we need not do anything to resume the download. Or else, start the download and FDM asks if you want to resume the download. -- G.

[AI] Microsoft patches 34 security holes, many critical
The Hindu : Sci-Tech / Internet : Microsoft patches 34 security holes, many critical Link: Science Link: S & T» Link: Internet REDMOND, October 14, 2009 Link: AP Share· AP In this January, 2009 file photo, visitors look at Microsofts' Windows 7 operating system, on display in the Microsoft booth at the International Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas. Photo: AP Microsoft Corp. issued a record number of security patches for its software Tuesday as part of its regular monthly update. The software maker plugged 34 holes and designated most of them "critical," Microsoft's most severe rating. Among them are fixes for Windows Vista, Windows XP, Windows 2000 and even Windows 7, which doesn't go on sale to consumers until Oct. 22 but has been in use by early testers and software developers. The patches target a wide array of Microsoft software, including the Internet Explorer Web browser, Media Player, Outlook and the Silverlight technology underlying multimedia Web sites. Security researchers at McAfee Inc., which makes antivirus software, noted that many of the holes addressed Tuesday are dangerous because they expose regular PC users to harmful programming code when they visit rigged Web sites or play media files that have been tampered with. Consumers can get the updates by turning on the "Automatic Updates" feature in Windows or by visiting www.microsoft.com/security. Previously, the most security flaws Microsoft had addressed in a single update was 31, which happened in June.

Re: [AI] seeking clarification on open office accessibility using Jaws For Windows
Installing Java AccessBridge will help to some extent and I would also suggest you try the new Jaws 11 beta. You wouldn't still get any style or formatting information though. Some people claim to have more success with NVDA but I have no idea. If you have to use OpenOffice for business/work purposes, I suggest the Sun ODF plugin for Microsoft Office which lets you open, edit and save all types of OpenOffice file formats through MS Office.

This five-year partnership will use K-NFB Reading Technology's soon-to-be-released electronic book reader to deliver the highest-quality digital book content to tens of millions of readers worldwide and harness Baker & Taylor's market leadership and relationships with 44,000 publishers and major book retailers in more than 120 countries. Dr. Marc Maurer, President of the National Federation of the Blind, said: "We are thrilled that Baker & Taylor has joined forces with K-NFB Reading Technology. This partnership, using pioneering e-book technology, will provide blind and other print-disabled people heretofore unprecedented access to the printed word. Until now, the traditional consumer book market has been largely closed to the blind, leaving us with limited access to information. Blind students are often left behind in coursework, unable to obtain books at the same time as their sighted peers. With this groundbreaking new partnership, for the first time in history, commercial access to millions of books is about to become a reality for all blind people." Ray Kurzweil, CEO of K-NFB Reading Technology, said: "This dynamic partnership will further my work of more than three decades with the National Federation of the Blind to make the printed word easily accessible to the blind. With our growing repository of e-content, Baker & Taylor's market leadership, and our innovative book technology, blind people will have millions of books literally at their fingertips. We expect this collaboration to revolutionize communication of knowledge throughout the world." Under the broad partnership with Baker & Taylor, K-NFB Reading Technology's new e-reader with cutting-edge 3-D technology will present content in formats accessible to the blind and others with diverse reading needs, and will operate seamlessly on a variety of electronic devices, including personal computers, smart phones, and cell phones. K-NFB Reading Technology, Inc., is a joint venture between Kurzweil Technologies, Inc., an innovator and pioneer in reading technologies and the creator of the first print-to-speech reading machine for the blind, and the National Federation of the Blind, the largest, most influential membership organization of blind people in the United States. ### About the National Federation of the Blind With more than 50,000 members, the National Federation of the Blind is the largest and most influential membership organization of blind people in the United States. The NFB improves blind people's lives through advocacy, education, research, technology, and programs encouraging independence and self-confidence. It is the leading force in the blindness field today and the voice of the nation's blind. In January 2004 the NFB opened the National Federation of the Blind Jernigan Institute, the first research and training center in the United States for the blind led by the blind. ___ Blind-international-students mailing list blind-international-stude...@nfbnet.org http://nfbnet.org/mailman/listinfo/blind-international-students_nfbnet.org To unsubscribe, change your list options or get your account info for Blind-international-students: http://nfbnet.org/mailman/options/blind-international-students_nfbnet.org/vadhimoolam%40gmail.com To unsubscribe send a message to accessindia-requ...@accessindia.org.in with the subject unsubscribe.

Since he is having functional limitations in his fine motor skills, it would be much easier to use head mouse for him. In addition head mouse users generally do not use keyboard for typing and they use key strokes for editing text messages. In addition they use their inhalation and exhalation capacity to do mouse clicks. Remember, "Key strokes" that I am mentioning here is not something similar that we are using our day-to-day JAWS life and the key strokes these people are using is something similar to text messaging. Since you mentioned that he prefers high quality natural speech, nowadays speech generating devices like Dynavox comes with both digitized speech and synthetic speech. I know, these technologies are expensive but demands for these kinds of technology is often getting ignored and as a consequence, these technologies are beyond the reach of those who need them..

Currently he is pursuing his tenth class & his care taker has a wish to provide him with computer education. so that he will be able to attempt his exams through computer. I quite appreciate the view of his care taker but there are some impediment which makes uncomfortable him to learn computer. He is not able to recognize the speech of any TTS. He can recognize only when people communicates to him through high speech. When I discussed about it with his care taker then he told me that he is suffering from multiple problems. He has problem of not being able to hear clearly, has low vision & not able to sit properly. He told me that he did all the things for him example he provided him with large keyboard, he also tried with magnifier software but all these things were wasted. He also knows that the boy is not able to keep his fingers correctly on keyboard. After knowing all these things, I suggested him to use talking typer, which would help him to keep him in touch of keyboard. I know that its not a proper solution of this problem. But I don’t want to break his hopes & according to me only talking typer is a software which he can use to settle his fingers permanently on keyboard. Here what I am trying to convey is that all people in the list are surely experienced and better as you have seen life & faced more situations like this. So I wish to request you all to come up with some valuable suggestions as it can bring change in ones’ life. -- Rakesh Negi contact NO: 9968368616 To unsubscribe send a message to accessindia-requ...@accessindia.org.in with the subject unsubscribe.
