Dear Friend,

Graphs are exumpted for visually challenged.
We don't have to learn the graphs we only have to know the lay out and
the calculations.
For that i think that it is better for you to go for a tuitionn.
I learned acounts with the help of a teacher.
She gave me the idea of a table by drawing on my palm and also taking
my hand and drawing on the paper.
Like that I learned acounts tables.
If you know left and right you will understand and if you are having
the idea of a column and rows then it will really help you out.
Ask your near by teacher or school teacher to help you out like this.
I think that this is the better idea because I learned like this and I
got 91 in business studies and 90 in acountency out of 100 in 12th
CBSE.

Regard's,

Phen Varghese

[AI] Making it happen

2012-05-25 Thread Vikas Kapoor
Making it happen

 S. K. Pande 


South Africa has made considerable strides in gender equality and disability. 
India still has to catch up
 
Here is a thought for our parliamentarians. As the Women's Representation Bill 
gathers dust in India, the South African Government is in the process of 
finalising consultations on its women empowerment and gender equality policy in 
preparation for the Women Empowerment and Gender Equality Bill. Consider this 
in the backdrop of the fact that in India we had tabled a historic report in 
Parliament called 'Towards Equality', way back in 1974.

Presenting her department's Budget Vote recently in South Africa, Minister for 
Women, Children and People with Disabilities, Lulu Xingwana told Parliament, 
Consistent with the directive of the President in his State of the Nation 
address, we intend to table the policy and the draft Bill before cabinet this 
year. The draft Bill is aimed at enforcing compliance in both government and 
the private sector.

 In the same vein her deputy, Hendrietta Bogopane-Zulu (MP) spoke in support of 
children and people with disabilities. Ms Xingwana had earlier even challenged 
police officials and those working within the justice system to take part in 
disability programmes to help increase the conviction rate of people abusing 
those with disabilities.

Consider the following facts. South Africa which abolished apartheid in 1994 
currently has 173 of 400 or 43 per cent women MPs. India in its lower house has 
just 56 and in session after session the Women's Reservation Bill fails to get 
passed. It is now a recorded fact that 30 per cent of South African 
parliamentarians are women, which puts South Africa at number eight in the 
world in terms of gender equality in government. The country leapt quickly from 
a position of 141 in the world before the 1994 elections to number eight, when 
the African National Congress adopted a 30 per cent quota on its party list. 

The country can also boast that nine of its 27 cabinet ministers and eight of 
its 14 deputy ministers are women. Both the Speaker of the National Assembly 
and the Chairman of the National Council of Provinces are women. South Africa 
is one of only three African countries to have women presiding officers in 
Parliament. 

Even as the South African economy is tottering, its push for gender equity is 
indeed worth noting. Women constitute 52 per cent of the population, 30 per 
cent of the central cabinet and 37 .6 per cent of management and professional 
jobs.

I met state minister Ms Zulu, who is blind, at a book launch on the disabled in 
Cape Town. During the book release, Lifelines, where over 50 per cent of the 
crowd comprised women, they spoke frankly about their lives. There were stories 
of courage, grit, determination by mostly black Africans who had overcome their 
disability or fought till the bitter end. I believe telling my story helps to 
raise awareness and to show others that disabled people are just the same as 
anybody else. We go through the same traumas, have the same problems and we 
also get angry and upset. Telling my story is also a way to show that everyone 
is capable. We have the abilities and can develop skills just like everybody 
can, said the minister.

2. after tabbing two or three times jaws will say search box edit.
3. Here try to write exact name of the file you are looking for.
4. jaws will announce some percentage so wait for few seconds.
 5. by tabbing two or three times you will be able to hear  Items

[AI] Imprisoning the consumer behind a digital firewall

2012-05-25 Thread Vikas Kapoor
The following article appeared in the Hindu editorial page on the implications 
of the recent act pertaining to CopyRight.

Imprisoning the consumer behind a digital firewall
 Srividhya Ragavan 



By introducing Digital Rights Management, the amended Copyright Act could 
compromise the legitimate rights of customers and stifle innovation
 
The Lok Sabha passed the Copyright (Amendment) Bill, 2012 on Tuesday and the 
media have highlighted some of its positive aspects, especially the provision 
for artists to earn lifelong royalty from the commercial use of their works. 

Sadly, a major amendment relating to the introduction of Digital Rights 
Management (DRM) has gone unnoticed. It is unfortunate that such a huge 
amendment which can impact the everyday lives of middle class Indians has been 
introduced without adequate debate and mostly only with industry inputs.

The power of DRM

DRM is like a software code used to manage the rights of copyright owners when 
any copyrighted material like books or songs are transmitted digitally. Unlike 
natural limitations built into the dissemination of hard copies, digital 
dissemination of copyrighted materials is quicker and easier. Hence, copyright 
holders use DRM technology as a self-help measure to prevent unauthorised and 
bulk digital dissemination of copyrighted materials.

These days, for instance, software comes equipped with inbuilt DRM programmes 
that tie it to a limited number of users or devices. A user who buys legal 
software cannot give a copy to a friend - the DRM ties the software to a single 
device or user. Similarly, DRM technology in modern DVD players - termed as 
Content Scramble System (CSS) - prevents users from copying the content. Even 
if a user copies a DVD, the disc will not play in a regular DVD player.

The Kindle example

The problem is such DRM measures can prevent fair-uses authorised under 
copyright laws like copying software from one's own laptop to desktop, or 
copying a DVD for private use. Therein lies the immense power that DRM can 
create over technology corporations. For example, Amazon's Kindle is a wireless 
electronic reading device where users can download books or other materials to 
save one the trouble of carrying bulky books. But, on July 17, 2009, users who 
bought George Orwell's Animal Farm and Nineteen Eighty-Four found that Amazon 
had automatically deleted copies of books from their Kindles overnight. DRM 
technology allowed Amazon to enter and delete files in each individual's 
Kindle. Reportedly, the copyright owners decided not to sell the content on 
Kindle. Well, if you had purchased a paper copy of the book, can the company 
send its employees to take it back from your house without explanation and 
prior authorisation while leaving the refund of the purchase price on your 
kitchen table?

Intellectual property misuse

Similarly, unlike in the case of a paper book that can be lent to a friend, an 
e-book will become accessible only to a user whose user name and password match 
- thus affecting the resale rights of the user. Further, in the United States, 
the use of DRM to protect materials that are in the public domain has led to a 
new line of cases cited for intellectual property (IP) misuse that has 
competition law impact. For instance, Lexmark Inc. equipped its printer refill 
cartridges with a DRM code that instructed the printer to only recognise 
Lexmark cartridges. It prevented customers from purchasing cheaper generic 
refill cartridges. Importantly, Lexmark held no IP rights over the printer 
cartridge and hence should be amenable to market competition. Competitors who 
broke the DRM code were sued for circumvention of technology - which is a 
violation in India under section 65B of the present Copyright (Amendment) Bill, 
2012. Notably, in the U.S., it took years for the court to rule on Lexmark's 
misuse of IPR because its DRM did not protect any intellectual property. In 
India, technology companies will get the same level of powers - and 
unfortunately, unlike the U.S., there are no NGOs like the Electronic Frontier 
Foundation to fight such misuse.

In the U.S., DRM measures have also been criticised as having a propensity to 
slow the pace of development - a move that the Joint Parliamentary Committee 
did not take full cognisance of. 

For example, ReplayTV and TiVo were recording devices that allowed users to 
record TV programmes while automatically deleting advertisements. (Imagine the 
pleasure of recording a cricket match without the advertisements.) Turner 
Broadcasting (with other studios) sued the manufacturers, asserting copyright 
violation. The courts forced both device manufacturers to remove the 
record-by-removing-advertisements feature on the grounds that it altered the 
original programme. Consumers, of course, were the ultimate losers but so was 
the new technology.

For countries like India, it is important to create research opportunities to

[AI] Libraries for the Visually Impaired: time to act

2012-05-25 Thread avinash shahi
Namaskar Dosto.

The praise showered in this particular post is far cry, isn't it?
Many libraries have been discussed here enabling blind to attain equal
footing in educational domain.
But I don't know about all discussed that how much these libraries
catering the eppitite to read, and obtain scanned readings when
required.
But, JNU which is talked here, to have established HK unit for blind
students, is functioning much below ordinary level.
Out of twenty systems, which were brought don't know how many years
before, are still twenty. forget new admissions that take place every
year.
and more than half of them, compell yu to cry and curse yur blindness.
And no appointment has ever taken place despite repeated request to
bring someone perminantly who can scann for students there.
First any how, find the book/article  then scann also.
Double hardwork, pleases the administration perhaps.☺
Now, Access Indians studying in these universities, can justify and
refute the claims in this article.☺
And let us frame a letter and send it to UGC for imidiate allocation
ffor our fundamental right to read from 12th five year plan.
Then we will take on these institutions one by one.
Blind studying in all over India
come together and force the UGC and its subordinates to practice what they talk.
Read on the article

The Government of India and UGC have endorsed these guidelines. The
main objective behind this is “access for all”. Libraries are an
integral part of any academic institution whether at school or
university level, and unless there is an easy access to it, the
students won’t be able to completely reap the benefits of the
educational system.

The term “access” does not only pertain to physical access, but it
also includes provision of aids and appliances and availability of
other resources and services. This needs the development of various
policies, programmes and strategies. Sensitizing people and
development of right attitudes also a pre-requisite to it and the over
all services need to be monitored.

Though there is an inadequacy in the academic library services for the
visually disabled yet some of the Indian universities have come
forward and have taken the initiative of establishing specialized
library services for them.

Some of these universities are:

Bharathihar University,Tamil Nadu, is one of them, where a ‘Talking
Book Library’ has been introduced with the help of Rotary Club.
There are 1,000 books in the form of CDs and audio cassettes for the
use of those have visual impairment.
There is also a proposal to modify the physical infrastructure of the
Bharathiar University to suit to the needs of disabled students.
Jammu University has made available software known as JAWS i.e. (Job
Access with Speech). It has been installed to convert hard copy to
voice.
A Resource Cell too has been opened to cater to the needs of the
visually impaired.
Delhi University has launched a multi-purpose resource centre.
The existing Braille Library has been extended. The Braille Library is
established in the Central Reference Library.
The facilities like Braille production, talking books and electronic
text preparation are provided.

All these new initiatives have helped over 400 visually challenged
students. The installation of computer equipped special software which
can translate textbooks in regional languages in Braille format is
part of the setup.

Now students can avail the benefits of modern equipment like Braille
printer, audio cassettes containing reading and reference material.
There is also a provision of special studios where audio cassettes are
converted into text messages in Braille.

JNU Library which is a store house of all Govt. publications and
publications and some important International Organisations like WHO,
European Union, United Nations and its allied agencies etc, too has
taken steps to provide facilities to the students with sight
impairment.

A separate unit named Hellen Keller Unit has come up in the Reading
Hall. There are twenty computers and scanners with screens, reading
and speech software. This special unit has been set up for the
advantage of blind students who won’t be facing any shortage of study
material. These students now have access to twenty two international
online databases covering about 10,000 full text journals. Apart from
this, there are 4,500 full text scholarly electronic journals from 25
publishers across the globe.


Punjab University too has come forward in this direction. It has
established a special section library for visually impaired. Here as
in other places, special software has been provided which can convert
the contents of books into audio records.

University of Calcutta and National Association of the Blind (NAB)
together have opened a remarkable ‘Digital Braille Library and Audio
Recording Workstation’ where the visually disabled persons would be
able to avail all modern learning equipments.

Lucknow University’s library, Dr. Manohar Lohia Library, has

If your fingers are always flitting across your cell keypad you should
be celebrating — it's 20 years since the world's first SMS was sent

It used to be a soap dish with an antenna, with monotone alerts and
ringtones… maybe an added feature like the torch light made the mobile
phone exciting. Two decades since your mobile phone was capable of
only phone calls, SMS and top score on snake, life has changed for you
and your touch screen, Android-enabled mutant, but the SMS hasn't
changed.

What is the expansion of SMS? Don't remember? Or has that been
replaced by acronyms like BBM and FB? For your dose of daily fun facts
— did you know that 2012 marks the 20 anniversary of the short message
service? It has been 20 years since the first text message was sent in
1992 by Brit Neil Papworth who texted ‘Happy Christmas' from his work
computer to Vodafone director Richard Jarvis on his Orbitel 901
handset, at a staff Christmas party.

But researchers say that the SMS continues to be the most widely used
mobile data service, with over two-thirds of the world's population
having access to the service. However text message usage can be
demarcated by age, with teenagers between 13 and 17 making the most
significant contribution to the more than six trillion messages that
are sent out annually.

“I know children who bring phones to school, sit in class and are
sending messages while hiding their phones under the desks. It is
shocking the things one can do with a mobile phone these days,” says
school teacher, Mimi Dominic.

SMS has also gone to the next level with world records being tracked
and noted. In 2009, a Norwegian girl, Sonja Kristiansen set the world
record for the fastest SMS, her record time is 37.28 seconds to type
‘The razor-toothed piranhas of the genera Serrasalmus and Pygocentrus
are the most ferocious freshwater fish in the world. In reality they
seldom attack a human.'

Susannah Varughese, mother of teenaged children, says, “In this new
age where technology is ubiquitous, we cannot fight it. But lines have
to be drawn, for instance at home the kids are not allowed to use
their phones at the dining table.” Texting has also shown an increase
in the cases of tenosynovitis, which is an inflammation in the lining
of the sheath that surrounds a tendon. Like someone witty said, it is
like tennis elbow, but smaller and less sporty. Dr. Saji, St. Johns'
Hospital, says, “This is a repeated stress injury, where the tendons
get inflamed due to stress. Age is not a factor; younger people have
this condition because of messaging and the computer.”

Around six years ago, a lecturer received an entire paper written in
text language. The student passed. With the urgency to get a message
across quickly and within the constraint of 160 characters, came the
popularity of SMS language, which linguists say will result in low
literacy and bad spelling. But just for the sake of that pivotal
change in communication, go ahead and send a text message today. Hv a
gr8 day. Cu 2mrw.
