[AI] For the Blind, digital misgivings
FYI from mydigitalfc For the blind, digital misgivings By RACHEL AVIV Jan 03 2010 At 4 o’clock each morning, Laura J. Sloate begins her daily reading. She calls a phone service that reads newspapers aloud in a synthetic voice, and she listens to The Wall Street Journal at 300 words a minute, which is nearly twice the average pace of speech. Later, an assistant reads The Financial Times to her while she uses her computer’s text-tospeech system to play The Economist aloud. She devotes one ear to the paper and the other to the magazine. The managing director of a Wall Street investment management firm, Ms. Sloate has been blind since age 6, and although she reads constantly, poring over the news and economic reports for several hours every morning, she does not use Braille. ‘‘Knowledge goes from my ears to my brain, not from my finger to my brain,’’ she said. As a child she learned how the letters of the alphabet sounded, not how they appeared or felt on the page. She does not think of a comma in terms of its written form but rather as ‘‘a stop on the way before continuing.’’ This, she said, is the future of reading for the blind. ‘‘Literacy evolves,’’ she said. ‘‘When Braille was invented, in the 19th century, we had nothing else. We didn’t even have radio. At that time, blindness was a disability. Now it’s just a minor, minor impairment.’’ Ms. Sloate regrets not having spent more time learning to spell in her youth, but she said she thinks that using Braille would only have isolated her from her sighted peers. ‘‘It’s an arcane means of communication, which for the most part should be abolished,’’ she said. ‘‘It’s just not needed today.’’ Braille books are expensive and cumbersome, requiring reams of thick, oversize paper. The National Braille Press, an 83-year-old publishing house in Boston, printed the Harry Potter series on its Heidelberg cylinder; the final product was 56 volumes, each nearly a foot, or 30 centimeters, tall. Because a single textbook can cost more than $1,000 and there is a shortage of Braille teachers in public schools, visually impaired students often read using MP3 players, audiobooks and computerscreen- reading software. A report released last year by the National Federation of the Blind, an advocacy group with 50,000 members, said that fewer than 10 percent of the 1.3 million legally blind Americans read Braille. About half of all blind children learned Braille in the 1950s, but today that number is as low as 1 in 10, according to the report. For much of the past century, blind children attended residential institutions where they learned to read by touching the words. Today, visually impaired children can be well versed in literature without knowing howto read; computerscreen- reading software will even break down each word and read the individual letters aloud. Literacy has become much harder to define, even for educators. ‘‘If all you have in the world is what you hear people say, then your mind is limited,’’ said Darrell Shandrow, who runs a blog called Blind Access Journal. ‘‘You need written symbols to organize your mind. If you can’t feel or see the word, what does it mean? The substance is gone.’’ Like many Braille readers, Mr. Shandrow says that new computers, which form a single line of Braille cells at a time, will revive the code of bumps, but these devices are still extremely costly and not yet widely used. He views the decline in Braille literacy as a sign of regression, not progress. ‘‘This is like going back to the 1400s, before Gutenberg’s printing press came on the scene,’’ he said. ‘‘Only the scholars and monks knew how to read and write. And then there were the illiterate masses, the peasants.’’ Until the 19th century, blind people were confined to an oral culture. Some tried to read letters carved in wood or wax, formed by wire or outlined in felt with pins. Dissatisfied with such makeshift methods, Louis Braille, a student at the Royal Institute for Blind Youth in Paris, began studying a cipher language of bumps, called night writing, developed by a French Army officer so soldiers could send messages in the dark. Braille modified the code so that it could be read more efficiently — each letter or punctuation symbol is represented by a pattern of one to six dots on amatrix of three rows and two columns — and added abbreviations for commonly used words like ‘‘knowledge,’’ ‘‘people’’ and ‘‘Lord.’’ Learning to read is so entwined in the normal course of children’s development that it is easy to assume that our brains are naturally wired for print literacy. But humans have been reading for less than 6,000 years and literacy has been widespread for no more than a century and a half. The activity of reading itself alters the anatomy of the brain. In a report released in 2009 in the journal Nature, the neuroscientist Manuel Carreiras studied illiterate former guerrillas in Colombia who, after years of combat, had abandoned their weapons, left the jungle and
Re: [AI] For the Blind, digital misgivings
It is an excellent article except that it fails to mention the attitude of western world in general and the United States in particular towards brail literacy which considers teaching brail to visually challenged students is undesirable. No wonder, 90% of the American visually challenged lack the ability to read and write in brail. This attitude does get tied to the general tendency of considering brail script as hierarchically inferior to the normal script. Just to illustrate this, I met people at the NFB convention who were forced to learn normal script despite the fact that their vision was not enough to retain it. In fact it was so bad that many actually ended-up loosing little vision they had because of the constant exposure to CC TV and other similar tools.

Re: [AI] kindly help me once more regarding mysql..
I don't remember exactly but if you mistake in the query syntax, you can correct it in the edit box as it preserve the query text. Should use F6 or Ctrl + F6 to move in different control. Also note, when you execute a query the focus shifts to the result pane and you may have to do F6 or Shift F6 to move to query edit. Or As an tweek alternate, you can select and copy the query text before running it so that you can simply paste and edit it for rerun. On top of everything, the behavior of preserving query text is controlable from MySQL UI (contact your SQL Trainer for more information)- I am sorry - it's been more than 4 years I have not touched SQL Hope this is helpful.

[AI] Delay in appointment of low vision person in state bank of Mysore
Friends, Another case of delay in appointment of a person with low vision in SBM. The story is as under... Mr. Pradeep has applied for a clerical job in SBM, cleared the written exam and interview. As usually, in the medical examination, he was declared unfit on the ground that his vision is deteriorating because of RP. Somehow, he overcame that hurdle. But still he is not given the appointment order even after 3 months from the date on which sighted people got their appointments. The reason they are saying is that they are looking for a job which he could be assigned and he will be given the order only after they find such a job. What if they can't find such a job? Or how long will they take to find it? The most interesting fact in this story is that a totally blind person has already been given the job in the same recruitment. So, to sum it up, SBM was able to find a job which a totally blind person can do but a person with low vision can't do. As a person with low vision, I feel any little vision I have is a boon to me. But in the case of Mr. Pradeep, it has proved to be a curse. Sorry if I haven't written this mail giving it the due seriousness. But since I joined in Access India, it is the fourth case I'm seeing. When I came to know about the first case, I felt so tense that I felt it was me who is loosing the job. Now I got accustomed to these things. Secondly, there is a new point which comes to debate in every case. But in this case, I feel it is foolishness at it's best on the part of SBM. -- G.

Re: [AI] Monitor status
Friends Thanks for all the suggestions. However, most of them are ineffectual for current LCD monitors. Still I will give them a try and let you know about my own preferred method.

[AI] reservation for blinds in lok sabha, rajya sabha and state legislatures
hi all, i think there should be reservation for blinds in parliament and state legislatures atleast 1% in lok sabha if 1% seats are reserved then it will account for 5 seats out of 545 seats. already in lok sabha many seats are reserved for SC and ST canditates. also 2 seats are reserved for anglo indians. anglo indian is now outdated issue. in Rajya sabha 12 members are nominated by President for persons having special knowledge of science, arts, literature and social service. why president should not nominate blinds or other handicapped persons in rajya sabha? in state legislatures also there should be reservation for blinds and other handicapped. in vidhan sabha 1% seats should be reserved for blinds. Governor nominates 1 person of anglo indian community to vidhan sabha if not represented adequetly. anglo indian concept is now outdated , this was relevent when india became independent. in vidhan parishad, governer appoints few members having knowledge of science, rts, literature, social service andco-operative movement. here also reservation for blinds and other disabled pepole should be made. i will note here 2 fundamental rights mentioned in our constitution which are enforceable by courts of law. article 14 states equality before law. it means nobody is above law of land. article 15 prohibits government discriminating citizens against caste, creed, religion, language, sex, place of birth. these fundamental rights does not prohibit government from making laws SC and ST ,children, womenand other socially and educationally backward sections of society , according to constition. so government can reserve seats for blinds in parliament and state legislatures. but government is not doing anything regarding this matter. should we try to make any pressure group? can we file PIL in supreme court as violation of our fundamental right what should we do? what do you think? any comment from legal experts is welcome. kaustubh khare mobile- 9423391691 To unsubscribe send a message to accessindia-requ...@accessindia.org.in with the subject unsubscribe.
