[AI] World Cup in South Africa: special arrangements for blind and visually impaired spectators
Page Headline: FIFA World Cup live action for blind and visually impaired football fans (FIFA.com) Tuesday 8 June 2010 Getty Images Blind and visually impaired fans will be able to enjoy a special live-match experience at the 2010 FIFA World CupT in South Africa. Six stadiums will each have 15 seats equipped with headphones, and trained commentators will report live on the action happening down on the pitch. In addition, each of these six stadiums will have 15 seats that will be allocated to their sighted guides who will accompany them, while specially trained volunteers will provide assistance within the stadiums. This is a premier in South Africa's sporting landscape. The initiative, launched by the Swiss National Association for the Blind (SNAB) and the South African National Council for the Blind (SANCB) and financially supported by FIFA, is aimed at making the tournament accessible to all. FIFA Partner Sony is providing the necessary transmitters that will allow people to receive match-day commentary in the stadiums free of charge. The SANCB is ensuring that the tickets are fairly allocated and only a very limited number of tickets are still available for 19 matches via .www. Link 44: sancb.org.za . "Football is a universal sport and it must be accessible to everyone. We are therefore delighted to be able to make this unique live experience in the stadium also accessible to visually impaired and blind people. This project is another launching pad for South African sports and will create a legacy with services and facilities at football grounds for visually impaired and blind South Africans," said FIFA President Joseph S. Blatter. The Institute of Advancement of Journalism was responsible for sourcing, training and coordinating the audio descriptors, while the Academy of Sound Engineering students will perform the technical audio functions that will be necessary to ensure that the audio descriptions are correctly transmitted to the visually impaired fans at the stadiums. The stadiums offering this service are: Johannesburg - Soccer City Stadium: 8 matches Johannesburg - Ellis Park Stadium: 7 matches Tshwane/Pretoria - Loftus Versfeld Stadium: 6 matches Durban - Durban Stadium: 7 matches Nelson Mandela Bay/Port Elizabeth - Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium: 8 matches Cape Town - Green Point Stadium: 8 matches Voice your thoughts in the blog to discuss the Rights of persons with disability bill at: http://www.accessindia.org.in/harish/blog.htm To unsubscribe send a message to accessindia-requ...@accessindia.org.in with the subject unsubscribe.

Re: [AI] does talks support screen tuch mobile phone?
Yes it does. However I have to tell you that Nokia touch screens are not as good as I-phone 3gs. Although talks 5 worked around it, it's not as good as I-phones. For example, the finger/touch screen interface is far quicker in I-phones as opposed to Nokia phones and one is compelled to use keyboard to perform many functions. It is easy to dile on I-phone by using the touch screen than Nokia models. In a nut shell, there are lots of flaws when it comes to Nokia's touch screen interface when one looks at from the accesibility points of view. Vetri.

Dear friends, I've been using the lekha script with mangal font for a few months now. The problem is that while using lekha, my computer often gets very slow and whenever I try to use a few keystrokes very quickly, the computer virtually gets hanged. In such cases I have to reboot the computer. Sometimes this happens after quite a long time but sometimes the problem can occur after just 10-15 minutes. Those using lekha please guide me if this has something to do with the hindi font or there's something wrong with my computer. This problem does not occur while using eloquence software.

Re: [AI] AccessIndia Digest, Vol 50, Issue 50
Dear Shadab, Hope this helps - VAISHNAVI Right to Education - The Act makes it mandatory for every child between the ages of 6-14 to be provided for education by the State. This means that such child does not have to pay a single penny as regards books, uniforms etc… too. - Any time of the academic year, a child can go to a school and demand that this right be respected. - Private education institutions have to reserve 25% of their seats starting from class I in 2011 to disadvantaged students. - Strict criteria for the qualification of teachers. There is a requirement of a teacher student ration of 1:30 at each of these schools that ought to be met within a given time frame. - The schools need to have certain minimum facilities like adequate teachers, playground and infrastructure. The government will evolve some mechanism to help marginalised schools comply with the provisions of the Act. - There is anew concept of ‘neighbourhood schools’ that has been devised. This is similar to the model in the United States. This would imply that the state government and local authorities will establish primary schools within walking distance of one km of the neighbourhood. In case of children for Class VI to VIII, the school should be within a walking distance of three km of the neighbourhood. - Unaided and private schools shall ensure that children from weaker sections and disadvantaged groups shall not be segregated from the other children in the classrooms nor shall their classes be held at places and timings different from the classes held for the other children. > Right of children to Free and Compulsory Education Act Provides for free and compulsory education to all children of the age of six to fourteen years The Right of children to Free and Compulsory Education Act has come into force from today, April 1, 2010. This is a historic day for the people of India as from this day the right to education will be accorded the same legal status as the right to life as provided by Article 21A of the Indian Constitution. Every child in the age group of 6-14 years will be provided 8 years of elementary education in an age appropriate classroom in the vicinity of his/her neighbourhood. Any cost that prevents a child from accessing school will be borne by the State which shall have the responsibility of enrolling the child as well as ensuring attendance and completion of 8 years of schooling. No child shall be denied admission for want of documents; no child shall be turned away if the admission cycle in the school is over and no child shall be asked to take an admission test. Children with disabilities will also be educated in the mainstream schools. The Prime Minister Shri Manmohan Singh has emphasized that it is important for the country that if we nurture our children and young people with the right education, India’s future as a strong and prosperous country is secure. All private schools shall be required to enroll children from weaker sections and disadvantaged communities in their incoming class to the extent of 25% of their enrolment, by simple random selection. No seats in this quota can be left vacant. These children will be treated on par with all the other children in the school and subsidized by the State at the rate of average per learner costs in the government schools (unless the per learner costs in the private school are lower). All schools will have to prescribe to norms and standards laid out in the Act and no school that does not fulfill these standards within 3 years will be allowed to function. All private schools will have to apply for recognition, failing which they will be penalized to the tune of Rs 1 lakh and if they still continue to function will be liable to pay Rs 10,000 per day as fine. Norms and standards of teacher qualification and training are also being laid down by an Academic Authority. Teachers in all schools will have to subscribe to these norms within 5 years. The National Commission for Protection of Child Rights (NCPCR) has been mandated to monitor the implementation of this historic Right. A special Division within NCPCR will undertake this huge and important task in the coming months and years. A special toll free helpline to register complaints will be set up by NCPCR for this purpose. NCPCR welcomes the formal notification of this Act and looks forward to playing an active role in ensuring its successful implementation. NCPCR also invites all civil society groups, students, teachers, administrators, artists, writers, government personnel, legislators, members of the judiciary and all other stakeholders to join hands and work together to build a movement to ensure that every child of this country is in school and enabled to get at least 8 years of quality education.

Re: [AI] he proved nothing is impossible
Dear Geetha and other friends, in my humble opinion, being self-confident and over-confident are two different things. Trying to prove that despite all our limitations, we can still perform a task as good as our sighted counter-parts signifies our self-confidence, and not over-confidence. If we succeed in proving it, it is an achievement! and even if we are not able to prove it, it still does not diminish the dignity of our effort. Trying and not succeeding is still better than not trying at all. By the way, being a commentator at International level and getting international acclaim for this task really matters a lot, and we too must not try to deny it. Regards, Sincerely yours, Yogesh Sharma!.

Re: [AI] he proved nothing is impossible
One correction --not all blind persons can do this, for that matter not all sighted persons can manage this as well. Commentating or reporting is fully based on one's interest and motivation. It's like writing. Most educated persons can write, but only a few become authors. If you possess interest your blindness will not come in your way, that at least is the lesson I had learnt from my adventures (or mis-adventures, whichever way one might like to put it). -Original Message- From: accessindia-boun...@accessindia.org.in [mailto:accessindia-boun...@accessindia.org.in] On Behalf Of Asudani, Rajesh Sent: Tuesday, June 08, 2010 4:35 PM To: accessindia@accessindia.org.in Subject: Re: [AI] he proved nothing is impossible So to say, blind people also drive car, draw pictures, and even perform surgeries.

Re: [AI] he proved nothing is impossible
You are mistaken. I was pursuing tennis reporting because of my interest and love for the game. Everything we do in life starts with our love for it and the fact of our disability is either forgotten or somehow over come in the process. Tennis reporting ws something like that. Let's not forget that I was sighted till about 18 which meant I have seen what exactly is a forehand or a backhand shot; what it means to lob; a passing shot; a let; a drop shot; a volley; a down the line shot; a cross court shot etc. Also, we cover events at the lower layer, say, an under 12, under 14 or 15, where it is possible to observe a match from closer quarters. I have watched matches from the seats of the line umpires, which meant we can certainly understand the speed and direction of shots played. Also I have had the opportunity to sit with experts, real masters whose understanding of the game is far superior to an average fan and discus each and every shot as it is played; that way, I understood the game far clearly than any sighted person. Remember, this is because I love the game even until this day. I can forget sleeping, leave alone my blindness to watch the Wimbledon finals, which I have been doing for the past 25 years. When you commentate, you have access to resources which outsiders may not guess or understand, which is why I kept saying that it is not all that impossible or ridiculous for a blind person to commentate. There are stats, facts and other things which you can remember and share with audience if only you happen to be the lover of the game. This holds good for every game from football to golf.
