Re: [AI] Now, a book on PM in Braille
hi, So nice to here from you. Where can I buy this book? On 9/18/14, Hozefa Tambawala starh...@gmail.com wrote: Even as Prime Minister Narendra Modi has decided to refrain from pomp and show on his 64th birthday, however, his birthday is special for scores of blind students of the country as they will now be able to know about country's PM, courtesy a book written in Braille script by a housewife of the Sangam city. Writing several other books on her Braille typewriter, book titled, Narendra Modi-Ek Vayktivav, is yet another contribution of Hardeep Singh's selfless service for the blind students. I see this book apolitical as this is a selfless service for those who cannot see Modi or have a book to read the inspiring incidences from his life, said Singh. The two chapters of this book talks of disciplined life of our PM and how these blind students can strive while swimming against the tide, she added. The book mentions not only about the basic information about the life of Modi but also of the persons who inspired him for becoming what he is today. One of the blind student of the city Supriya said, We have heard so much about our PM and his life but all from other people, it is good that someone has thought of us too and written a book on Modi. Hardeep had also written Gita Saar, Laghu Kavita Sangrah, greeting card and other books in Braille script. She is also writing the magnum opus of great Hindi litterateur Hari Vansh Rai Bachchan Madhushala for these blind students.

Re: [AI] accessible captcha selution
Hi Friends, as I had posted few days back asking for suggestions for developing software for visually challenged, I got few responses. I thought of few other Software. one of them could be for solving the capcha. I have read all the posts on this thread. as you all know that capcha cannot be eliminated due to security issues, and mathematical questions can be easily solved by bots. but suggestion for text capchas was good. as kartik suggested there can be questions like your fathers father is your grand father true/false but technically its too complicated for all websites to follow this approach. how capcha works is, when you copy BotDetect PHP Captcha library to your PHP website folder, you can write php script that generates the CAPTCHA image and set a session that stores the security. so the image is generated at run time and there is no need to store the image and the security code in any data base. but when you consider the option of having multiple logical questions (text capcha) which bots cannot solve, you need to create a separate table to store questions and separate table for storing answers. then you have to establish a relation between the tables using primary keys and foreign keys. later there should be an algorithm to randomly pick up questions and match the answer with the answer entered by the user. it takes lot of effort (I have tried similar approach for generating questions for a quiz software). and creating such data base and algorithm for all websites that have capcha is not practical. and you obviously cannot have a data base shared by different websites. and same algorithm also cannot be implemented for different websites because any bot can easily analyze the algorithm so what I think is, I am going to try to find a way to give a better audio feed back for the existing image capcha. what do you think friends?

Hello, as I'm the mozilla user, for me web visum is working perfectly in any situation.

I thought of few other Software. one of them could be for solving the capcha. I have read all the posts on this thread. as you all know that capcha cannot be eliminated due to security issues, and mathematical questions can be easily solved by bots. but suggestion for text capchas was good. as kartik suggested there can be questions like your fathers father is your grand father true/false but technically its too complicated for all websites to follow this approach. how capcha works is, when you copy BotDetect PHP Captcha library to your PHP website folder, you can write php script that generates the CAPTCHA image and set a session that stores the security. so the image is generated at run time and there is no need to store the image and the security code in any data base. but when you consider the option of having multiple logical questions (text capcha) which bots cannot solve, you need to create a separate table to store questions and separate table for storing answers. then you have to establish a relation between the tables using primary keys and foreign keys. later there should be an algorithm to randomly pick up questions and match the answer with the answer entered by the user. it takes lot of effort (I have tried similar approach for generating questions for a quiz software). and creating such data base and algorithm for all websites that have capcha is not practical. and you obviously cannot have a data base shared by different websites. and same algorithm also cannot be implemented for different websites because any bot can easily analyze the algorithm so what I think is, I am going to try to find a way to give a better audio feed back for the existing image capcha. what do you think friends?

Writing several other books on her Braille typewriter, book titled, Narendra Modi-Ek Vayktivav, is yet another contribution of Hardeep Singh's selfless service for the blind students. I see this book apolitical as this is a selfless service for those who cannot see Modi or have a book to read the inspiring incidences from his life, said Singh. The two chapters of this book talks of disciplined life of our PM and how these blind students can strive while swimming against the tide, she added. The book mentions not only about the basic information about the life of Modi but also of the persons who inspired him for becoming what he is today. One of the blind student of the city Supriya said, We have heard so much about our PM and his life but all from other people, it is good that someone has thought of us too and written a book on Modi. Hardeep had also written Gita Saar, Laghu Kavita Sangrah, greeting card and other books in Braille script. She is also writing the magnum opus of great Hindi litterateur Hari Vansh Rai Bachchan Madhushala for these blind students.

Re: [AI] Meeting with national informaticDirector Center (NIC) general
hi, 1. Alternate of scanned documents. Agencies can put both scanned and digital document proclaiming that the digital format is an unofficial copy and for the official recognition, one can take the scanned documents. Thus, accessibility is met and formal recognition is also fulfilled. 2. The great hurdle on accessibility on many site is due to the use of the non-unicode texts. Responsible official can issue an strict directive for all agencies to upload the documents written in unicode encoding.

[AI] Court reverses undue transfer of blind professor
Dear All, I am happy to inform you that the judiciary has once again expressed its deep concern for promotion and protection of rights of persons with disaiblity. please refer below reproduced news covered in times of India with regard to reverse an undue transfer of a visually challenged professors. with regards, Gautam Agarwal Court reverses undue transfer of blind professor Tue, 09/16/2014 - A vindictive transfer of a 100% visually impaired professor of English, from a college close to his home to one 18km away by the Puducherry higher education department, was flayed by the Madras high court which said the authorities had acted in an insensitive manner. Dr D Ramkumar, a doctorate degree-holder in English, is a 100% visually challenged person working as head of the department of English in Kasthurba College for Women in Villianur, Puducherry since his appointment in February 2009. The government-controlled Pondicherry Society for Higher Education administers six colleges including this institution, which is located about 9km from Dr Ramkumar's home. In 2013, he was transferred to Rajiv Gandhi Arts and Science College in Thavalakuppam, Puducherry, on the ground that only women faculty members were preferred at Kasthurba college. Though authorities cited administrative reasons for the transfer, Ramkumar said he was being targeted because they were underwrong the impression that he was behind a sexual harassment complaint lodged by a woman lecturer recently. appeal to authorities was dismissed, and a single judge of the high court too upheld the transfer saying the transfer was an incidence of service. Reversing the single judge order and slamming the higher education department authorities for their attitude, a division bench of Justice N Paul Vasanthakumar and Justice K Ravichandrabaabu said: There is no dispute regarding the power of the authority to transfer an officer from one college to another college on administrative exigency. However, having regard to the state award conferred on Ramkumar, it is beyond doubt that he is an asset to the women's college. It is not in dispute that other male lecturers are allowed to serve in the college even as on date. Thus, there is no justification to argue that it being a women's college, Ramkumar has no right to continue there and that he is to be necessarily transferred a college 18km away from his residence. Citing provisions of Persons with Disabilities (Equal opportunities, Protection of Rights and Full Participation) Act, 1995 and central government circulars concerning disabled employees, the judges held that there was a statutory violation committed by higher education department while transferring Ramkumar from a college where he was serving in a safe manner to another college 18km away from his residence. They then set aside both the transfer order and the single judge verdict upholding the transfer order.

Re: [AI] Meeting with national informaticDirector Center (NIC) general
Hi, Please sensitize the NIC personnels about the difficulty faced by VI community in solving Captcha and urge them to either remove or use some alternate ways. As you are aware that even web visum has stopped their service of captcha solving these days this captcha solving has become big challenge in independent use of even accessible web contents for VI community. If they don't have any alternate accessible ways at present then suggest them to begin a web visum like service for all such NIC websites which use captcha because audio captcha are not clear most of the time.

Re: [AI] Meeting with national informaticDirector Center (NIC) general
Dear Sir, The complete guidelines for making web content accessible laid by w3 consortium could be found at http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20/ However in general if some simple things are considered while creating a website, it would become accessible to a grater extent 1. Choosing a content management system that supports accessibility. 2. Using headings correctly to organize the structure of the content 3. Including proper alt text for images 4. Giving links unique and descriptive names. 5. Using color with care. 6. Designing forms for accessibility by giving proper names to name attribute and labels. 7. Using tables for tabular data, not for layout. 8. Ensuring that all content can be accessed with the keyboard alone in a logical way by considering the flow of division tags. 9. Using ARIA roles and landmarks. 10. Making dynamic content accessible. This can easily be done by usin ARIA Roles and some accessible front end design frameworks. The accessibility of a webpage could be checked at http://validator.w3.org/ I hope this would help.

Re: [AI] Meeting with national informatic Center (NIC) Director General
Based on my limited interaction with NIC and other Government Ministries/ Departments under the Central Government's perview mainly dealing with commercial aspects, I understand that unless explicit instructions are given, accessibility is not imbedded by default. Cost, time and effort are largely the reasons. So ideally speaking: 1. Make sure that irrespective of the commercials, tenders and other considerations, no product goes out which does not have at least the very basic accessibility standards. I am not getting in the argument of what is basic and what is not. That can be evolved as time and technology demands. 2. Regarding the problem of putting the scanned copy containing the signature of the authorized officials, a low cost and good workable solution is to use digital signature. If an analysis is done for the documents which are in the draft stage, they are drafted using Microsoft Word, and even at times the PDF is made from those documents. So, the content accessibility should not be that big challenge (regional content is an exception here, for which Unicode is to be preferred). 3. Provide us a mechanism where the genuine small concerns regarding particular websites can be raised, and for making those minor amendments, N.I.C. should have the authority to amend the source code without instructions from the particular department (a term to that effect can be included in the contract). There exists an email address for the web guidelines, but I wonder if that is even opened now a days. India E-post Office is a good example. The very front page has a flash button which has to be clicked in order to continue. Rest of the site is manageable. If that one problem is solved (which NIC assured me to solve in its next version and I am talking about 2012 or so), the rest can be used. For the time-being, this much should be good to start. Would appreciate an update post the meeting. Regards, -- Amar Jain.

[AI] Automated Chess Board
News info on Automated Chess Board Mumbai college designs tech-savvy chessboard for the blind Watch a 6 minutes video *www.youtube.com/watch?v=YuFVDBDH0ys* http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YuFVDBDH0ys The innovation centre at Somaiya College, Mumbai has designed a chessboard that is tailor-made for the sightless, with Braille inscription on chess pieces, voice feedback of every move played, and textural The specially designed board comes with Braille inscription on chess pieces, voice feedback of every move played, and textural differences between black and white boxes, amongst other features. “There are already board games available in the market that can be used by the visually-impaired, but our board game involves technology that allows one to play the game online as well as on a physical board; the board automatically plays the moves depending on the keys pressed,” said Gaurang Shetty, head of the innovation centre. The project was introduced by Shetty two years ago, and was completed only this year, with the help of three college students. “The existing board games in the market for the visually impaired are incomplete. So, we have collaborated with the National Association for the Blind (NAB) for their inputs while launching this board game,” he said, and added that the group has filed for patenting their work. Called Automated Chess (AC), the board game can be used for a single-player game or a game with two players. “AC also provides the player with a Graphical User Interface (GUI) over the Internet, so one person can play over GUI sitting in any corner of the world, while the other plays on the physical chess board,” added Shetty. The board consists of a 64-key membrane keypad. At the heart of the project is Arduino, an open source electronics platform based on easy-to-use hardware. It is used to transfer signals from the board to the computer. The chessboard is designed to facilitate the other senses of the player. “A voice feedback is provided to the player. The chess pieces are inscribed with Braille and there are textural differences between the black and white boxes, making them easy to use for players. Users will find it easier to not only play the game, but will also understand the other person’s moves in the game better,” added Shetty. This team had applied to the Maker Faire in Rome, and have recently been invited by the organisers to showcase the board in Rome next month. The Maker Faire Rome is a festival of invention and creativity, in which projects from across the globe are showcased. “While the project is ready, we are also trying to incorporate other features to this chess board for even better results,” Shetty signed off. visit http://chess.riidl.org/ and email to *chesst...@riidl.org* chesst...@riidl.org for more info.

[AI] Different Mobile OS Information
Hello my Friend I Send to Different Mobile Operating System Information. OS (Operating System) The Operating system is a base infrastructure software component of a computerized system. It controls all basic operations of the computer (or other electronic devices such as PDA, smartphone, etc.). The Operating System allows the user to install and execute third-party applications (commonly called apps for short), usually adding new functionality to the device. Among the most popular computer operating systems are Microsoft's Windows and Apple's Mac OS, along with the various distributions of Linux. The most popular OS's for mobile devices (smartphones and tablets) are Apple's iOS and Google's Android and they are the only ones that still show growth. Down the ranks there are RIM's BlackBerry OS and Microsoft's Windows Phone. Symbian holds a distant fifth place, while merely a year ago it was still the most widely used mobile OS. Symbian held its top position for years but its market share has been slowly fading away ever since touch-operated smartphones became the norm and Symbian failed to deliver an intuitive touch UI. Almost ten years ago, Microsoft's Windows Mobile was a strong player too, offering the first touchscreen smartphone experience with the PocketPCs powered by their OS. Today mobile devices with a proper OS are called smartphones and users have a wide choice of applications, such as games, productivity apps, communication or social media apps, digital maps, etc. Standardized operating system platforms make it possible to provide a consistent user interface (and experience) across devices from different hardware manufacturers. Yet, Android smartphone manufacturers like to customize the user experience so each offers a slightly modified version of the stock Android UI. While the major players these days are clear, over the years we've seen the emergence of numerous mobile OS projects including but not limited to Palm's webOS, Samsung's Bada OS, Nokia's Maemo OS, Nokia's MeeGo OS, LiMo OS, Tizen, BlackBerry's Playbook OS and more recently, the Jolla's Sailfish OS and Mozilla's Firefox OS. Android Android is a Linux-based smartphone operating system and software platform created by Google. Android beta The beta release of Android OS was released on 5 November 2007. The first SDK was released a week later, on 12 November 2007. Android 1.0 Android 1.0 was the first commercially available release of the OS. It was available on the pioneering device - the T-Mobile G1 (released October 2008 in the US and the UK) along with the Android source code. Android 1.1 Android 1.1 was pushed out on 9 February 2009, coinciding with the announcement of the HTC Dream, an internationally available twin of the T-Mobile G1. Android 1.5 Cupcake Android 1.5 Cupcake was released on 30 April 2009. It was the first major Android overhaul and it also was the first Android release to be pet-named after a dessert - a tradition that has been kept alive ever since. Every subsequent Android release was named after a dessert, whose name started with the next letter of the alphabet. Version 1.5 Cupcake introduced the software on-screen keyboard to Android and allowed the production of touch devices sans QWERTY keyboards such as the HTC Magic (announced February 2009). Equally importantly, it enabled Android smartphones to shoot video. Along with that, v. 1.5 Cupcake added support for third-party software keyboards, third-party widgets, stereo Bluetooth, copy and paste in the web browser, screen auto-rotation, and an option to upload media to YouTube and Picasa. Android 1.6 Donut Android 1.6 Donut was released on 15 September 2009. It added text-to-speech, updated Android Market now offered app screenshots, and it introduced support for WVGA screens. The camera became faster, and the gallery, camera and camcorder got deeply integrated with each other. Android 2.x Eclair Android 2.0 Eclair SDK was released on 26 October 2009. Android 2.0 introduced multiple account sync, Microsoft Exchange email support, Bluetooth 2.1, the Quick Contact feature, showing a pop-up for call, SMS and email, as soon as you tap on a contact's avatar. The camera received new features such as flash support, digital zoom, scene mode, white balance, color effect and macro focus. The web browser UI was updated and some new features were added such as double-tap to zoom. We saw the much overdue native support for multi-touch interaction with software. Live wallpapers were first introduced with Eclair, as well. The UI was redesigned, there were multiple performance improvements and we welcomed the support for more screen sizes and resolutions. Google Maps Navigation was also introduced alongside Android 2.0 Eclair, quickly turning into a key selling point for Android smartphones in the supported countries. Android 2.1 was a subsequent release, which was dubbed Eclair, too, as it wasn't a major update in terms of functionality. This sort of minor upgrades

[AI] Where is the Disaster Management Policy for Disabled in India?
Where is the Disaster Management Policy for Disabled in India? Abha Khetarpal New Delhi - September is National Preparedness Month in America. Sponsored by Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), National Preparedness Month aims to educate and empower Americans to prepare for and respond to all types of emergencies, including natural disasters and potential terrorist attacks. Disaster preparedness ought to be a priority for any country. But ironically it's been a week that a national daily covered the issue of callousness of the authorities and state agencies towards the disaster management and emergency preparedness for the people with disabilities in India and nobody has uttered a word about it. The National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA) and the National Institute of Disaster Management (NIDM) in India clearly stated in their replies to RTIs filed by me, Abha Khetarpal, President, Cross the Hurdles, that they have no specific and clear policies and management strategies to rescue people with disabilities at the time of disasters whether man made or natural. But not a single word has been spoken regarding this by any of the government agency whether it may be Ministry of Social Justice and Empowerment, Ministry of Home Affairs and NDMA, whose Chairperson Is the Prime Minister himself or NIDM which is responsible to provide technical support to the state governments through the Disaster Management Centers (DMCs) in the Administrative Training Institutes (ATIs) of the States and Union Territories. Here I am not comparing the facilities given in these two countries i.e. America and India. I know it would wrong on my part to do so because there are economic limitations of developing country which a huge amount of population and almost everything belonging to the unorganized sector. But yes, I am won't be ashamed to compare the attitudes of the government departments, implementation of whatever written in the rule books and lack of importance given to human lives between these two countries. In their reply to the RTI to NDMA states that there are no special measures and minimum standard of relief has been prescribed for rescuing of persons falling Below Poverty Line group. The rescue and relief and operation teams of NDRF are specially trained to treat people with special needs. But if you go the link of their website given by them to check their training modules you won't find any such module in this regard or mention of such specific course. (http://ndrfandcd.gov.in/writereaddata/userfiles/file/update.pdf) And NIDM in their reply to the RTI clearly states that they have not yet developed any training materials. It should be the duty of the state agencies to educate the public about how to prepare for emergencies, including natural disasters, mass casualties, biological and chemical threats, radiation emergencies, and terrorist attacks especially for those who are not able to defend themselves during emergency. Apart from giving 'moral support and preference' as told by NDMA, specific needs of different disabilities must be addressed in addition to the usual needs of all individuals. For example, it might be difficult for people with physical impairments to keep themselves warm due to lack of movement and poor circulation. This situation demands the need for warm clothing, blankets or fi re wood. In addition, people with difficulty in moving may also need assistance for evacuating from an unsafe situation, accessing relief shelters and using latrines. Physical assistance, assistive devices, or installation of ramps may be necessary to ensure these persons are not disadvantaged or trapped in a dangerous situation. People with visual or hearing impairments are unlikely to notice warning signals and quick evacuation routes during a disaster situation. Subsequently there should be a separate alarm system along with personnel support to move them to a safer place. Some of them may find it difficult to understand and appropriately react to instructions; for these persons, it is important to provide relevant information in a manner which they can understand such as using simple language or pictures, or speaking very slowly and clearly. Where are the specific guidelines or training modules to cater to such needs? No policy measures and proper infrastructure built up is mentioned to rescue of evacuate persons with disabilities from government and private buildings like offices, auditoriums, theaters, hotels, schools etc. There is no contingency plan to regarding management of persons with disabilities at the time of disaster whether man made or natural. There are no specific evacuation measures apart from being given preference. There was a polio epidemic in Car Nicobar Island (India) several years ago, which resulted in about 700 people becoming disabled. Three days after the disaster tsunami in 2004 people could not locate a single disabled person! They may be dead, as they may not have been able

The project was introduced by Shetty two years ago, and was completed only this year, with the help of three college students. “The existing board games in the market for the visually impaired are incomplete. So, we have collaborated with the National Association for the Blind (NAB) for their inputs while launching this board game,” he said, and added that the group has filed for patenting their work. Called Automated Chess (AC), the board game can be used for a single-player game or a game with two players. “AC also provides the player with a Graphical User Interface (GUI) over the Internet, so one person can play over GUI sitting in any corner of the world, while the other plays on the physical chess board,” added Shetty. The board consists of a 64-key membrane keypad. At the heart of the project is Arduino, an open source electronics platform based on easy-to-use hardware. It is used to transfer signals from the board to the computer. The chessboard is designed to facilitate the other senses of the player. “A voice feedback is provided to the player. The chess pieces are inscribed with Braille and there are textural differences between the black and white boxes, making them easy to use for players. Users will find it easier to not only play the game, but will also understand the other person’s moves in the game better,” added Shetty. This team had applied to the Maker Faire in Rome, and have recently been invited by the organisers to showcase the board in Rome next month. The Maker Faire Rome is a festival of invention and creativity, in which projects from across the globe are showcased. “While the project is ready, we are also trying to incorporate other features to this chess board for even better results,” Shetty signed off. visit http://chess.riidl.org/ and email to *chesst...@riidl.org* chesst...@riidl.org for more info.

CORAM: HON'BLE MS. JUSTICE HIMA KOHLI O R D E R 02.09.2014 1. Pleadings are complete. 2. At the outset, counsel for the petitioner states that the respondent No.1 has filed WP (C)No.14017/2012 in the Madras High Court, wherein directions were sought to the petitioner/Bank (respondent in the aforesaid petition) to provide him study materials and to arrange a scribe at their cost and without any mark restriction to enable him, who is a person with visual disability, to participate in the process of promotion to the MMG Scale-III. Further, the respondent No.1 had challenged the promotion policy of the petitioner/Bank dated 16.5.2012. A copy of the aforesaid writ W.P.(C) 4946/2013 Page No.1 of 3 petition has been enclosed with the rejoinder filed by the petitioner/Bank and marked as Annexure P-10. 3. The Court is informed by the counsel for the petitioner/Bank that the respondent No.1 was promoted to the MMG Scale-III on 27.5.2014 and thus, the said relief does not survive. 4. As regards the remaining reliefs, since the aforesaid writ petition is pending before the Madras High Court and the respondent No.1, who is visually challenged and a permanent resident of Coimbatore, is appearing through counsel in the said proceedings, this Court is of the opinion that great inconvenience will be caused to him if he has to continue defending the present petition filed by the Bank from such a long distance. The petitioner being a nationalized bank has enough wherewithal, apart from a well organized legal department to pursue litigations all over the country, including the Madras High Court. 5. For the Bank to file the present petition in this Court only on the ground that the impugned order dated 2.5.2013 was passed by the Chief Commissioner for Persons with Disabilities, whose office is situated in Delhi, cannot be the sole consideration that will weigh with the Court while examining the aspect of territorial jurisdiction. The doctrine of forum convenience gains significance when the respondent W.P.(C) 4946/2013 Page No.2 of 3 No.1, who is visually challenged, is admittedly a resident of Coimbatore and working for gain in a Branch of the petitioner/Bank situated in the very same city. Further, having regard to the fact that the respondent No.1 has already approached the Madras High Court for appropriate relief in WP(C)No.14017/2012, which is being contested by the petitioner/Bank and is pending adjudication in the said court, it is deemed appropriate to dispose of the present petition with liberty granted to the petitioner/Bank to file appropriate proceedings in the Madras High Court. 6. In view of the fact that an interim order dated 5.8.2014 is operating in favour of the petitioner/Bank, it is directed that the said order shall remain in operation for a period of four weeks from today, which is considered sufficient time for the petitioner/Bank to approach the Madras High Court for relief. 7. The writ petition is disposed of, along with the pending application.

There are already board games available in the market that can be used by the visually-impaired, but our board game involves technology that allows one to play the game online as well as on a physical board; the board automatically plays the moves depending on the keys pressed, said Gaurang Shetty, head of the innovation centre. The project was introduced by Shetty two years ago, and was completed only this year, with the help of three college students. The existing board games in the market for the visually impaired are incomplete. So, we have collaborated with the National Association for the Blind (NAB) for their inputs while launching this board game, he said, and added that the group has filed for patenting their work. Called Automated Chess (AC), the board game can be used for a single-player game or a game with two players. AC also provides the player with a Graphical User Interface (GUI) over the Internet, so one person can play over GUI sitting in any corner of the world, while the other plays on the physical chess board, added Shetty. The board consists of a 64-key membrane keypad. At the heart of the project is Arduino, an open source electronics platform based on easy-to-use hardware. It is used to transfer signals from the board to the computer. The chessboard is designed to facilitate the other senses of the player. A voice feedback is provided to the player. The chess pieces are inscribed with Braille and there are textural differences between the black and white boxes, making them easy to use for players. Users will find it easier to not only play the game, but will also understand the other person's moves in the game better, added Shetty. This team had applied to the Maker Faire in Rome, and have recently been invited by the organisers to showcase the board in Rome next month. The Maker Faire Rome is a festival of invention and creativity, in which projects from across the globe are showcased. While the project is ready, we are also trying to incorporate other features to this chess board for even better results, Shetty signed off. visit http://chess.riidl.org/ and email to *chesst...@riidl.org* chesst...@riidl.org for more info.

Re: [AI] Court reverses undue transfer of blind professor
A good judgment. However, again it proves that we are at the mercy of managements and judges. There is no unbiased system working to empower the disabled. Single JUDGE upholds the transfer and thanks to perseverance of Ramkumar and support he got and of course thanks to two judges who sided with him, that he could retain his earlier posting. With thanks and regards (Rajesh Asudani) Assistant General Manager Market Intelligence Unit Reserve Bank of India Nagpur Tel.: 0712 2806358 (In youth you want things, and then in middle-age you want to want them.) -Original Message- From: AccessIndia [mailto:accessindia-boun...@accessindia.org.in] On Behalf Of goutham agrawal Sent: Thursday, September 18, 2014 3:41 PM To: Access india Subject: [AI] Court reverses undue transfer of blind professor Dear All, I am happy to inform you that the judiciary has once again expressed its deep concern for promotion and protection of rights of persons with disaiblity. please refer below reproduced news covered in times of India with regard to reverse an undue transfer of a visually challenged professors. with regards, Gautam Agarwal Court reverses undue transfer of blind professor Tue, 09/16/2014 - A vindictive transfer of a 100% visually impaired professor of English, from a college close to his home to one 18km away by the Puducherry higher education department, was flayed by the Madras high court which said the authorities had acted in an insensitive manner. Dr D Ramkumar, a doctorate degree-holder in English, is a 100% visually challenged person working as head of the department of English in Kasthurba College for Women in Villianur, Puducherry since his appointment in February 2009. The government-controlled Pondicherry Society for Higher Education administers six colleges including this institution, which is located about 9km from Dr Ramkumar's home. In 2013, he was transferred to Rajiv Gandhi Arts and Science College in Thavalakuppam, Puducherry, on the ground that only women faculty members were preferred at Kasthurba college. Though authorities cited administrative reasons for the transfer, Ramkumar said he was being targeted because they were underwrong the impression that he was behind a sexual harassment complaint lodged by a woman lecturer recently. appeal to authorities was dismissed, and a single judge of the high court too upheld the transfer saying the transfer was an incidence of service. Reversing the single judge order and slamming the higher education department authorities for their attitude, a division bench of Justice N Paul Vasanthakumar and Justice K Ravichandrabaabu said: There is no dispute regarding the power of the authority to transfer an officer from one college to another college on administrative exigency. However, having regard to the state award conferred on Ramkumar, it is beyond doubt that he is an asset to the women's college. It is not in dispute that other male lecturers are allowed to serve in the college even as on date. Thus, there is no justification to argue that it being a women's college, Ramkumar has no right to continue there and that he is to be necessarily transferred a college 18km away from his residence. Citing provisions of Persons with Disabilities (Equal opportunities, Protection of Rights and Full Participation) Act, 1995 and central government circulars concerning disabled employees, the judges held that there was a statutory violation committed by higher education department while transferring Ramkumar from a college where he was serving in a safe manner to another college 18km away from his residence. They then set aside both the transfer order and the single judge verdict upholding the transfer order.

Re: [AI] The phenomenology of the handshake
I wanted to know if women have handshake. Should you shake hands with a women? Many times, some people, particularly women, just touch the fingarss during handshake. How blind people manage handshake offer? regards - Original Message - From: avinash shahi shahi88avin...@gmail.com To: accessindia@accessindia.org.in Sent: Sunday, September 14, 2014 3:20 PM Subject: [AI] The phenomenology of the handshake While reading this very interesting piece on (Sunday), I am reminded of practical difficulty faced by majority of us (blind people) while responding to handshake offer. I've heard many diseases are known to have spread from unprotected handshake but this does not mean we avoid handshake in genuine situation Can we exchange our interesting experiential/funny accounts about handshake? and find a solution to this dillemma... http://www.thehindu.com/todays-paper/tp-features/tp-openpage/the-phenomenology-of-the-handshake/article6408899.ece Shaking hands with this strongly built former Army man is quite an experience. He shakes hands with you firmly, will look you in the eye gently, and greet you with a very polite 'how are you'. However, post-handshake, your fingers and palm will take a little time to recover from the unexpected exercise. The experience is not altogether physical. The handshake, historically popular in different cultures, is an act meant to establish contact between two human beings. Human beings are bound to each other in a great chain of being, and a handshake is a link in this chain. More than the ritual itself, it is the manner of shaking hands which says it all: it reveals if the chain is valued or not. In our culture, a handshake that is slightly less solid than our Army man friend's can be considered normative. A hand offered perfunctorily could reflect indifference and an absence of warmth. Human beings have a responsibility towards their cultural environment. The output depends on the input. A firm, friendly and warm handshake is a positive input in our environment; it usually produces a positive output. An unsure hand could well release negative vibes. A handshake that lasts for some duration also makes a statement. In most meetings between top leaders, the act of the handshake is watched closely. When Narendra Modi shook hands with Nawaz Sharif at his swearing-in ceremony, it was estimated that he held the Pakistan leader's hand for a full 26 seconds, looking him in the eye. In a way he appeared to have gained some psychological points before the eager cameramen and reporters. Who shakes hands with whom can offer a study in gender relations, changing manners and the dynamics of power in relationships. In a patriarchal set-up, men do not shake hands with women. Women offering their hands for a handshake would even be looked down upon. In the urban professional set-up where patriarchal customs are weakening, some women may shake hands with men and some will not. In any case, a handshake between a man and a woman in a professional situation would be gentle and brief. In traditional Muslim households there was a time when women simply greeted each other but did not usually shake hands with each other. In the same kind of households now, handshake between women is often the norm. A younger person offering his hand to an older person is a sign of poor manners, at least in India. It is the older person who must offer his hand. Where age is not a factor in a relationship, it does not matter who takes the initiative. However, the person taking the initiative will be considered more open and warm-hearted. The social and professional status of a person also determines the custom of the handshake. A person higher in status can choose to shake or not shake hands with a person lower in status. An attendant should not dare to offer his hand to his boss. The boss offering his hand to his attendant in a professional context would be considered rare indeed. However, the same boss may offer his hand to the attendant if he visits his home on some festival. At times, a handshake can be a cause of problem. The evil practice of untouchability and slavery had once made even the thought of handshake between some groups unthinkable. The idea of a handshake is also uncomfortable for a person suffering from obsessive compulsive disorder. The simple matter of hygiene also determines the practice of the handshake. Imagine a situation where a person having the problem of OCD is forced by etiquette to shake hands with somebody given to picking his nose or not washing his hands after a visit to the washroom. An ecstatic form of handshake is the high five, made popular by certain sportspersons. High fives may be exchanged between younger people, but will be out of place in a formal situation. But the thought of a high five with my Army man friend gives me a shudder. A firm handshake may be more than enough. siddiquiasim.amu @gmail.com -- Avinash Shahi Doctoral student at Centre for
