[AI] regarding formatting memory card
Dear SharmaG, Some pen drives have a hardware lock associated with them. In case the lock is activated by using a slider on the pen drive itself then it becomes write protected. This feature is useful when you want to read pen drive and not write anything to it. This often helps in ensuring that virus do not get copied to pen drive. Normally the mentioned slider lock is on the side of pen drive. Hope that helps. regards VS To unsubscribe send a message to accessindia-requ...@accessindia.org.in with the subject unsubscribe.

[AI] Fw: [blindCity] amazing! Google tests self-driving car

Google tests self-driving car All, I was just very excited by what this might mean for blind and partially sighted people! Google tests self-driving car The internet giant is extending its reach with research into a car that drives itself. By Bill Berkrot, Reuters, 11 Oct 2010 at 08:28 Google, the world's largest internet search engine, has been tinkering with engines of another sort and come up with some futuristic results - a car that drives itself. Google, in a posting on its official blog, said it had developed the technology and been busy testing a fully automated car that would take the controls out of the hands of distracted drivers, leaving them free to text, eat or apply make-up to their heart's content. Our goal is to help prevent traffic accidents, free up people's time and reduce carbon emissions by fundamentally changing car use, Google said on its blog. The automated cars use video cameras, radar sensors and a laser range finder to see other traffic, as well as detailed maps to navigate the road ahead. The futuristic autos have already been tested on the heavily trafficked California roadways - including highways, bridges and busy city streets. They have even navigated San Franciso's famed Lombard Street, a tourist favourite known as the nation's most dramatically winding address. All in all, our self-driving cars have logged over 140,000 miles, Google said. All of the test runs have had a driver behind the wheel just in case. The driver can take over as easily as one disengages cruise control, Google said, adding test drives had also included a trained software operator in the passenger seat to monitor the software. Google said it believed its self-driving cars might one day cut by half the more than one million traffic fatalities suffered each year. For those ready to shell out hard-earned cash for one of the first self driving autos, Google said the project is very much in the experimental stage providing only a glimpse of what transportation might look like in the future. It remains to be seen whether Google investors, who have been concerned by the company's spending, will applaud its automotive aspirations. The company missed Wall Street's earnings estimates in the second quarter and is due to report third quarter results later this we [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] __._,_.___ Reply to sender | Reply to group | Reply via web post | Start a New Topic Messages in this topic (1) Recent Activity: a..

Hi Sandeep, To me it appears as if you or somebody else has applied some password to your memory card. Try the following: 1. Insert the memory card in to the phone and start the phone. 2. After Talks start, press the menu button and nevigate to the folder named Extras. 3. Press down the joy stick to enter this folder. Now press options [The left soft key] and scroll down to the remove password option. 4. Press the joystick to select this option. 5. Press the okay button if required. Hopefully that should solve the problem. Regards. Yogesh. To unsubscribe send a message to accessindia-requ...@accessindia.org.in with the subject unsubscribe.

It may be recalled that in the Case No. 2791/2003, the Honourable Court of Chief Commissioner for Persons with Disabilities had passed Orders dated 05.09.2005 which was forwarded by IBA to all the member banks vide their circular letter dated October 20, 2005. In the above Order, the Honorable Court has instructed that banks should offer all the banking facilities including cheque book facility, ATM facility and locker facility to the visually challenged and also assist them in withdrawal of cash. Further, in Para 14 of the above Order, the Honorable Court has observed that visually impaired persons cannot be denied the facility of cheque book, locker and ATM on the possibility of risk in operating / using the said facility, as the element of risk is involved in case of other customers as well. *3. Banks are therefore advised to ensure that all the banking facilities such as cheque book facility including third party cheques, ATM facility, Net banking facility, locker facility, retail loans, credit cards etc. are invariably offered to the visually challenged without any discrimination. *Banks may also advise their branches to render all possible assistance to the visually challenged for availing the various banking facilities.

Re: [AI] Special Formalities for passport?
hi, unfortunately in our country if we are affixing thumb we have to get it attested by a notary there will be one declaration form and all the formalities required will be in the instructions of the physical form. the authorities insisted me for a gazetted attestation on the prescribed proforma and further insisted me to sign an illiterate declaration along with it. notary authorization is compulsion. hope it helps. On 10/12/10, Amar Jain amarjain2...@gmail.com wrote: Dear All I have filled up passport application online, and will be going to passport office on 15th of Oct. I have seen the website carefully, and have even spoken with the office. The website as such makes no reference to disability or any special formality to be followed except disability certificate, while applying for passport, and the office helpdesk people were not sounding like very trained people. Therefore, I sincerely request you all to let me know that are there any specific formalities to be completed for the passport? I use thumb impression, so will I be required to get the form notarized? I have to go to thane, which will take approx 1.5 hours from where I stay, and I will have to change two trains or one train and one bus at least. Therefore, tell me everything from top to bottom.

[AI] Fwd: Consensus Paper on Substantive Content of New Law 11-10-10

This 'Consensus Paper' will form the base of the first draft of the New Law and will be discussed by the Committee when it meets in Hyderabad on October 19 and 20. Based on the discussions, NALSAR will come out with the first draft of the New Law on November 20.This will be followed by another meeting of the Committee on November 26 and 27. The first draft of the New Law will be made public ONLY on November 30. DNIS has been able to access this 'Consensus Paper' which has not been made public yet. It is enclosed along with this mailer. Since the disability sector at large will not have an opportunity to be part of these dicussions directly till the end of November, it becomes all the more important for the sector to be vigilant and to read the 'Consensus Paper' carefully in order to ensure that ALL substantive issues are being addressed by the Legal Consultant. What also needs to be reflected upon is that most of the Sub Groups were not able to perform as expected. Therefore, the term 'Consensus' becomes debatable. In such a scenario, the disability sector leadership has to play a proactive role and read ALL materials pertaining to the New Law and ensuring that all feedback/critique is sent to the Committee. Feedback can be sent directly to the Chairperson, Dr. Sudha Kaul at sudha.k...@gmail.com.

[AI] Google provides the visually-impaired with two new sets of Android Eyes
hi list, i got to read the following news somewhere on the web, and thought to share it with you. it looks interesting to me, so if there's any android user on the list, i'd like to request her/him to please give it a try and let us know about your experiences with the following applications. will look forward for your responses.

Here's how Google describes them: WalkyTalky WalkyTalky is an Android application that speaks the address of nearby locations as you pass them. It also provides more direct access to the walking directions component of Google Maps. With WalkyTalky installed, you can: • Launch WalkyTalky to specify a destination, • Either specify the destination by address, or pick from favorites or recently visited locations, • And in addition to spoken walking directions, • Hear street addresses as you walk by. These spoken updates, in conjunction with the walking directions that are spoken by Google Maps help users navigate the physical world as efficiently as they navigate the Internet. Intersection Explorer Using this application, users can explore any neighborhood on Google Maps via touch. • Intersection Explorer starts off at the user's current location. • One can change the start position by entering an address, to do this, press menu and click on new location. • Once the map has loaded, touching the screen speaks the streets at the nearest intersection. • Moving one's finger along a compass direction, and then tracing a circle speaks each street at that intersection along with the associated compass direction. • Presence of streets is cued by a slight vibration as one traces the circle. • Lifting up the finger when on a street moves in that direction to the next intersection, speaks the distance moved, and finally speaks the newly arrived-at intersection. Intersection Explorer sounds like a way to preview the landscape, before you actually get there. Both apps are free, and are in the Android Market now. Regards, Prateek agarwal.

Subject: {Retina India Connect} Google provides the visually-impaired with
two new sets of Android Eyes
hi mates,
posting here after quite a lot of days.
hope the following should interest you, it looks promising to me.
Google provides the visually-impaired with two new sets of Android Eyes
---
Google has released two new Android applications designed to help the
blind and visually impaired with walking directions, pairing Google
Maps with GPS
navigation technology. The applications are
WalkyTalky
(from Google's Eyes-Free Project) and
Intersection Explorer.
Here's how Google describes them:
WalkyTalky
WalkyTalky is an Android application that speaks the address of nearby
locations as you pass them. It also provides more direct access to the
walking directions
component of Google Maps. With WalkyTalky installed, you can:
• Launch WalkyTalky to specify a destination,
• Either specify the destination by address, or pick from favorites or
recently visited locations,
• And in addition to spoken walking directions,
• Hear street addresses as you walk by.
These spoken updates, in conjunction with the walking directions that
are spoken by Google Maps help users navigate the physical world as
efficiently as
they navigate the Internet.
Intersection Explorer
Using this application, users can explore any neighborhood on Google
Maps via touch.
• Intersection Explorer starts off at the user's current location.
• One can change the start position by entering an address, to do
this, press menu and click on new location.
• Once the map has loaded, touching the screen speaks the streets at
the nearest intersection.
• Moving one's finger along a compass direction, and then tracing a
circle speaks each street at that intersection along with the
associated compass direction.
• Presence of streets is cued by a slight vibration as one traces the
circle.
• Lifting up the finger when on a street moves in that direction to
the next intersection, speaks the distance moved, and finally speaks
the newly arrived-at
intersection.
Intersection Explorer sounds like a way to preview the landscape,
before you actually get there.
Both apps are free, and are in the Android Market now.
cheers!
prateek agarwal.
