[AI] A risky road for blind students in Rohini, Somreet Bhattacharya
NEW DELHI: Students at the All India Confederation of Blinds in Rohini often get knocked by cars while finding their way to the school premises. Drivers backing without warning or looking around had left three of the girls bruised earlier. The students have a tough time weaving through the vehicles parked haphazardly. http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/delhi/A-risky-road-for-blind-students-in-Rohini/articleshow/40311584.cms A slip road between Rajeev Gandhi Cancer Hospital, on Bhagwan Mahavir Marg, and a zonal office of North Corporation leads to the school. According to a traffic police order, this road was supposed to remain free for the students, who were trained to get off at the bus stop and count their steps to the school while keeping to the left side. If they deviate from the path, it is very difficult for them to pick their way back. Even a few steps to get around an obstacle like a parked car can make them lose their bearings. The absence of a guide, coupled with speeding vehicles, makes the girls all the more vulnerable. The drivers generally don't give us any signal expecting us to see them. They end up grazing us or knocking us down, said Saraswati, one of the students. They have memorized their way to the service lane from the bus stop and use the slip road before taking a left turn towards the school. Traffic cops had even fenced off the left side and issued a no-parking order. But the barricades have been removed and motorists are back to their old ways, said J L Kaul, founder member of the school. He said the slip road now has vehicles parked on both sides. Most of these cars belong to the people visiting the Rohini zonal office across the road, locals said. The space allotted for parking inside the zonal office was used for dumping garbage and damaged vehicles. The underground parking served as office space. We tried to remove the dumped vehicles but it was taking too long so we gave up, said a senior corporation official. The locals also observed that the service lane beside Bhagwan Mahavir Marg which could have been an alternative parking space was dug up recently. Not only does it pose another hurdle for the students but also forces visitors to park their vehicles near the blind school. Worse still, the slip road is two-way, so the students have to run the gauntlet of traffic coming from the other side as well. http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/followceleb.cms?alias=school,Parking,North Corporation,blind,All India Confederation of Blinds -- Avinash Shahi Doctoral student at Centre for Law and Governance JNU Register at the dedicated AccessIndia list for discussing accessibility of mobile phones / Tabs on: http://mail.accessindia.org.in/mailman/listinfo/mobile.accessindia_accessindia.org.in Search for old postings at: http://www.mail-archive.com/accessindia@accessindia.org.in/ To unsubscribe send a message to accessindia-requ...@accessindia.org.in with the subject unsubscribe.

Re: [AI] Productivity and efficiency
Mr Dear Rahul sir I think first we should equip with new and existing available technologies along with major applications in computer and it is easy to work with advanced matters equally with normal persons through the help of Jaws NVDA, and other assistive devices. only we need to practice with some research and innovations to face challenges competations which ever comes to our life. regarding with issues there is a need of awareness and sensitiveness to public and among ourselves. with thanks and regards. Nagaraj H. On 8/15/14, Rahul Bajaj rahul.bajaj10...@gmail.com wrote: Hi all, I hope this message finds you well. In the last one year, I have done a large array of interesting internships in different areas of the law. While I have mostly had very rewarding and enriching experiences, I have also had to deal with a unique set of challenges along the way. For me, the greatest challenge has been being able to perform my assignments as expeditiously as my sighted counterparts. In most successful and prestigious organizations, especially in the private sector, you are not only required to perform your assignments well, but are also expected to complete your work within a stipulated time period. Therefore, it is critical to maintain efficiency in order to be able to compete with your counterparts. I am often required to access material which is not in an accessible format and has to be converted into an accessible format by using Fine Reader, etc. Similarly, I often find it hard to use advanced features in MS Office like track changes, footnotes, etc as expeditiously as I would like to. Don't even get me started on Adobe Reader! Even though this can, to some extent, be attributed to the fact that I am not as tech savvy as I need to be, I believe that it also has to do with some inherent flaws of assistive technology which can often be slow and unreliable. As a result, I invariably have to invest more time and energy into my work than my sighted counterparts in order to be able to produce substantive and satisfactory results. However, this solution really doesn't work in organizations where every employee has a heavy workload, so everyone has to work for at least 12-14 hours a day to get their work done. In such a case, there is virtually no scope for a visually impaired employee to invest more time and energy than his sighted counterparts. So, the upshot is that the visually impaired employee is assigned lesser work which leads to lower job satisfaction. In sum, my uniform experience has taught me that, even though assistive technology has made it possible for us to access information that was hitherto inaccessible to us, it is still the next best thing to actually reading the information and not a substitute for it. I'd love to know what you all think about this proposition and whether or not your experience bears this out. What strategies have you adopted for increasing your productivity at the workplace? I look forward to hearing from you.

Learning new things looks to be quite interesting, but when it comes for execution, accessibility issue hampers me to go ahead and is pushing me behind. I would like to know how JAWS or NVDA supports the oracle-related tools like SQL developer, Toad etc. JAWS supports SQL developer tool to certain extent after installing JDK and JRE. I am not sure how it supports other oracle-related tools. When we work for oracle SQL development or oracle DBA, should we connect with multiple servers remotely? If yes, how can we connect servers with the support of JAWS with multiple servers? Even though we get remote access license for JAWS, how can we install the JAWS in multiple servers? If any of you working in oracle, please clarify my doubts and guide me on this. Hoping to expect some positive solution from any one of you. Thanks Regards S. Manikannan Mo: 07795337781.

Re: [AI] the best way of solving puzzle type of questions for a visually challenged perspective?
Hi Mohib, 1. Get your scribe to write down the known facts on scratch paper. 2. Take the choices and parse them against the known facts. 3. Can you make any deductions?

Hi Ajay, My answers are inline and are prefixed by my initials. Hi sir, 1. Which OCR would you recommend then which can process tables correctly? PL] The kurzweil 1000. 2. Most of the times I use the features highlighted by you but the main problem lies in aligning graphs/ pictures/ other objects in either my word docs or PPTs. PL] This is where templates are handy because they already have place holders for images etc. You can look at the properties of these objects and try doing the math. It is easier to get a sighted colleague to quickly adjust a few pictures. Any reviewer will help you with this. In PowerPoint, Jaws does tell you if a picture is covering or overlapping some text element. Usually, the trick is to move the picture away until it is in the clear. 3. I fully agree that keeping jaws on a faster rate really helps. I keep it at around 70% and it has saved my life in a lot of surprise tests smiles! PL] True and I have had several colleagues ask me which language is my computer speaking? grin Pranav Register at the dedicated AccessIndia list for discussing accessibility of mobile phones / Tabs on: http://mail.accessindia.org.in/mailman/listinfo/mobile.accessindia_accessindia.org.in Search for old postings at: http://www.mail-archive.com/accessindia@accessindia.org.in/ To unsubscribe send a message to accessindia-requ...@accessindia.org.in with the subject unsubscribe.

Re: [AI] the best way of solving puzzle type of questions for a visually challenged perspective?
Hi Mohit, I'm not an expert in solving these questions. But my suggestion is not to wait till you get all the combinations correct. Every time you find something or discount something, look at the answers to see if you have already cracked it. For example, if the question contains Sachin, Modi and Sharuk and sports, films and politics. When you know Sachin belongs to sports, look at the answers to see how many options contain this combination. Usually you will get the right answer after two matches and its not necessary to match all the options before checking on the answer. On 8/16/14, Pranav Lal pranav@gmail.com wrote: Hi Mohib, 1.

[AI] Visually impaired pull off prize-winning march
Students of Shree Ramana Maharishi Academy for the Blind at the IndependenceDay parade in Manekshaw Parade grounds on Friday Mumbai Mirror Maruthi K N was 11 when a bout of typhoid took away his vision. A large number of surgeries could not restore the light in his dark world. Now 23, he was eagerness personified as he prepared to take part with the team from the Shree Ramana Maharishi Academy for the Blind at J P Nagar, in the Independence Day parade held at Manekshaw Parade grounds. Draped in the red-and-yellow team uniform, he said, I know the look of awe people have when they see a parade because I have seen it before. But for me now, the satisfaction is in hearing the thunderous applause the audience gives when we parade in front of them. The students at SRMAB prepared for over a month for the day. Their coach, Thimmaiah, who is also their mobility and physical education teacher, spent at least three hours with them every day, teaching them things such as uniform marching and 90 degree turning - things that are basic for the visually gifted. Thimmaiah said, Since most of the students cannot see, we place in the front the partially-sighted ones who hold long canes which the students can hold in a line till the back. This way, the students at the back know when to take turns. Then we have to teach them to raise their arm and legs in unison with the rest of the contingent at a certain angle. But it is very pleasant to see the students pick up the activities as fast as the visually gifted students, and of course it is a matter of pride to see them perform this well in the Independence Day parades. Thimmaiah has been with the school since 1992 and they have been taking part in the parades for the past 22 years. Except for thrice - when we came second twice and third once - we have bagged the first place 41 times including the Republic Day parade. This is the 41st time we have received the trophy and that is no small feat, said Thimmaiah holding the trophy for first place in the specially-abled category. S Eshwarappa, 18, was born blind and has never known the riot of colours that surface during Independence Day celebration. He said, I have been blind since birth and while I do not know what the celebrations look like, I do like the sound of applause. That encourages me to take part in each parade year after year. When Thimmaiah Sir asked me to take part in the parade for the first time, I thought it was a very difficult task. But he showed us the way and today we have come this far only because of him. I could never imagine visually impaired people taking part in such celebrations, but Thimmaiah Sir and the entire team at SRMAB have made it possible.

[AI] Living for special children
The Kumars with their daughter.-- Photo: Special Arrangement When Krishna Kumar, a teacher with Kendriya Vidyalaya, R.K. Puram, Sector 2, gave birth to two special daughters, she and her husband, a doctorate in chemistry from Pusa Research Institute Dr. Sushil Kumar, didn't cry or feel bad about the gifts, as they put it. Instead they decided to take care of their girls and also other 'such' children. http://www.thehindu.com/todays-paper/tp-national/tp-newdelhi/living-for-special-children/article6324915.ece Since Ms. Kumar didn't know how to handle such kids, she visited Aadi, a centre for special children at Dwarka. When her elder daughter Sonal turned 18, the centre said they couldn't keep her any longer. So, in 1996, she, with a homemaker Shuba Mukherjee, opened Udaan, a home for special children in Delhi. And by 2007, the Kumars opened another such centre with their own money at Faridabad called Sonalsmriti. The reason for opening it is heart wrenching. Recalls Ms. Kumar, now retired and living in Greater Kailash: Sonal died in 2002 after reaching the age of 23. I went into depression, more so because she was very intelligent and headstrong. She wanted to become something in life but her body didn't cooperate. She was well aware of the happenings around her like any normal educated person. For instance, on the death of Rajiv Gandhi, she didn't eat her meals. It was only after his cremation that we could persuade her to eat. Ms. Kumar wanted to keep Sonal alive in her memory. So she bought an inexpensive plot in a rather deserted area at that time, Greenfield Colony at Faridabad, and dedicated five years to make a spacious, barrier-free building for the special children. Now, it is a well-equipped centre with trained staff which includes physiotherapists, neurotherapists and support staff. What makes it unique is that it caters to children Below Poverty. About her younger daughter Nupur, now 31, Krishna: She is extremely ill. She was hospitalised for days and has come back yesterday. Now she cannot have diapers as it generates rashes, she needs someone to help her. So is the case with the support staff. Says Ms. Kumar: Whenever I get overwhelmed and cry, my staff tells me, `Why do you cry for the kind of kids you have, rather why don't you think that because of your kids, we are able to run our kitchen. `Aapke bachchon ki vajah se hamare ghar ka choolha jalta hai'. This gives me strength to go on. Ms. Kumar is very clear about one thing: I don't keep more than 20 children at a time, so that every child can get dedicated personal attention. Sonalsmriti runs on funds donated by people. Incidentally, she was nominated for Nobel Peace Prize in 2005 for doing real ground work at the loca -- Avinash Shahi Doctoral student at Centre for Law and Governance JNU Register at the dedicated AccessIndia list for discussing accessibility of mobile phones / Tabs on: http://mail.accessindia.org.in/mailman/listinfo/mobile.accessindia_accessindia.org.in Search for old postings at: http://www.mail-archive.com/accessindia@accessindia.org.in/ To unsubscribe send a message to accessindia-requ...@accessindia.org.in with the subject unsubscribe.

[AI] 'Market-ability: Wanted Umbrella helps the differently abled find the right match'
http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/home/stoi/deep-focus/These-startups-are-special/articleshow/40319852.cms Market-ability: Wanted Umbrella helps the differently abled find the right match.RELATED Kalyani Khona came up with the idea of launching a matchmaking agency while trying to identify her true calling in life. But after doing some research, the young Mumbaikar decided to make her agency a more specialized one -- by catering to the differently abled. With over 40 million disabled people in India, only 5% or less get married, says Khona, who launched Wanted Umbrella on July 1. For an annual fee of Rs 3,000, the agency arranges curated events and group dinners where singles can be more relaxed instead of the conventional 'chai' meetings. Khona is part of a small but growing breed of young entrepreneurs who are setting up businesses to cater to people with disability. The last few years have seen a range of services come up -- from matrimonial agencies and customized cars to lifestyle magazines. Persons with Disabilities (PWD) were always a market but businesses addressed them as a charitable model. Now that disabled people have better education, they want to improve their standard of living, and aspire for everything that other people have access to, says Shilpi Kapoor, MD of BarrierBreak, a company which helps make educational institutions and technology companies disabled-friendly. Upasana Makati, who launched India's first English lifestyle magazine in Braille last May, says that she realized that a magazine for the visually-impaired was long overdue. 'White Print', a monthly, covers everything from travel, food and Bollywood to music and politics and is priced at Rs 30. I was doing a PR job but wanted to do something different, a venture I could connect with. That's when I realized that there are plenty of magazines around but none for the visually impaired, says Makati, who prints her magazine at the National Association for the Blind. Today, they print 300 copies a month and have a subscriber base across India. People are getting more aware and sensitive, which is why you see a lot of young people taking the lead and launching businesses for the disabled, she says. In Bangalore, 46-year-old Vidhya Ramasubban started Kickstart, a disabledfriendly cab service, last December. Though they have three vehicles at present, the service is already planning to expand. We get three to four calls in a day. We started small but now hope to get 50 vehicles, says Ramasubban, adding that Mphasis, an IT consultancy firm, helped her start the venture. Each car takes about a month to be modified. Currently, the majority of their clients are people who need to visit the hospital regularly -- patients of strokes and spinal cord injury who need rehabilitation, and those who need to undergo dialysis. The percentage of working people who use the cab service for daily commute is still small. One of them is wheelchair-bound Deepa Maski, who no longer has to depend on her parents every time she wants to go shopping to a nearby mall. The cars have ramps for wheelchairs and the seats are also detachable and can be converted into makeshift wheelchairs, says Maski, 28. There are also a number of businesses across the country that customize cars for the differently abled. In Chennai, P Padmanabhan, owner of Mobility Aids Sales and Services, has modified more than 400 cars since he launched the company in 2004. Modifying a car for a wheelchair-bound person involves removing the pedals -- clutch, brake and accelerator -- from the floor and bringing them up to the level of the steering wheel. Padmanabhan, who is also wheelchair-bound, says it was his struggle to attain some level of mobility that inspired him to set up the business. The majority of disabled people cannot afford cars, says Padmanabhan who charges anywhere between Rs 12,000 to Rs 70,000, depending on the model of the vehicle and the degree of customization required. He is planning to slowly expand his business to other cities but says it will take time. We are looking for dealers who are sensitive towards PWD and we'll also train them to deal with these special customers, says Padmanabhan. For the differently-abled, such services can be life-changing. The ability to move, and commute can lift 50% of the depression of being disabled, says Delhi-based Rajiv Virat, who drives a modified Maruti 800. Having lost mobility due to multiple sclerosis when he was just 17, Virat now plays tennis on wheels, has participated in the Delhi and Mumbai marathons and driven to Ladakh. Khona is optimistic about the future of her business. NGOs catering to their needs using limited funds was the best they ever got until now. But it is actually a niche and due to limited competition, the scope of profits and likelihood that the business will work out are higher, she says. The bonus: changing the lives of people.
