Re: [AI] Experiences of Acer and lenova laptop users
I have been using an acer aspire 4930 for the last 2 and a half years. Touch wood, performance so far, has been pretty good. The ram is well used, and the system, even with Windows Vista, works fast enough. The sound system isn't too bad either, ones you optimize all the settings. If you have a good system configuration, then I think acer shouldn't be a bad bet. It seems the one possible common issue has to do with the keybord. I had to change my keypad ones, and a couple of my friends who use acer, have found the keypad a touch troubling, although they otherwise are happy with the performance of the system. Since I had the keypad trouble, I've shifted to the use of an external roling keybord. Hopes this is of some help. best, On 10/6/11, Vamshi.

Re: [AI] Tips to manage without escort?
...@gmail.com wrote: Hi all, First of all, I'm glad to see this thread. I think that this matters more than all other screen readers, assistive devices and all such other things. Even I fail to comprehend how totally blind people are able to move on their own. I have always taken the help of sighted guides for moving around. Many people also feel that those who require sighted assistance are more dependent on others than those who use white canes are. I personally feel that it's better to take the help of a sighted guide instead of fumbling around just to prove that you are not dependent on others. Of course, there are people who are truly independent and do not require much sighted assistance, but, like I said earlier, I really don't know how they actually manage it. I feel that people, in general, have a very negative attitude towards those who use white canes. I'm not saying that they hate blind people, but there is a drastic change in their behavior. They start interfering unnecessarily in order to assist you, or they start asking ridiculous questions. All this also happens if you move around with a sighted guide, but I believe that it happens more if you use a white cane. Of course, this method also has its flaws, but what other option do we have?

Re: [AI] regarding Dehli J.N.U. admition
Welcome to JNU. The Fee shouldn't be a matter of concern, its around just 100 per semester. Also, the hostel will be made available at the time of adimission itself, and the hostel fee pir semester is less than 100. You have to pay the mess bil though, and it is around 1500 pir month. As a visually challenged, you have a special unit in the genraly library, provided with more than 20 computers, scanners, braille printers and so on. The University also provides a reader allowance of around 1500 for MA students. There is a fforum organized by the visually challenged students of the campus, the JNU Visually Challenged Forum. Hope you will have a great time at JNU. On 7/16/11, Shona Man shonam...@gmail.com wrote: Congrats and welcome in this prestigious ever learning institution. You will have to pay pay 40 RS as school fee and you will get hostel at the day of admission, however you have to pay 2,000 RS for hostel accomodation once in a semester.

Re: [AI] internet 9
niether IE9 or FFirefox4 are quite comfortable with Jaws 11, at least that has been my experience. as far as IE9 is concerned, there is no progress bar support, the status bar is also not available with Jaws. the biggest problem I found though was the huge gaps between lines when you navigate using arrow keys that eventualy forced me to downgrade. but all said and done, the thing seem really fast, faster than any other version of IE, and even for that matter FF3.6. now on Firefox 4, firstly webvisum wasn't available, now that problem is solved as they've come up with an update that works fine with the latest FF version. however with Jaws11, again the new firefox itself is not accessible. you can't navigate the page with the arrow keys, nor does the normal reading commands work. still finding it dificult to downgrade, as I don't have the copy of the previous version.

If you want to see the full list of changes with all the original marketing detail, you can read Microsoft’s Beauty of the Web page, but here’s the highlights that you might be interested in. list of 5 items • Completely New Interface – as you can see in the screenshot above, there’s a completely new interface, designed from the ground up to save space on the screen—in fact, it uses even less pixels than Google Chrome. • Hardware Acceleration – IE9 is the first browser that taps into the power of your video card to make everything faster, by default. This browser is blazing fast, all around. • Pinned Sites – While Google Chrome might have started out with their web applications concept, IE9 takes it to another level by allowing site owners to customize the menus for sites pinned to the Windows 7 taskbar. • HTML5 Support – Microsoft has finally learned from their past mistakes, and focused on getting I.E. to the point of compliance with Internet standards. There’s a lot of whiners out there that say Microsoft didn’t make it work well enough, but I think it’s a good first step. • Combined Search / Address Bar – IE9 integrates the two boxes together into one, and even adds search suggestions that work quite well, similar to Google Chrome’s combined omnibox. list end There’s a ton of other, smaller, features below the hood, but these are the most interesting features. I’ve also highlighted some of them in screenshots below. You probably want to get to the screenshots, but first, here’s a couple of answers to questions you haven’t asked yet. list of 5 items • No, Internet Explorer 9 does not work on Windows XP. • Yes, you can install IE9 over top of the beta version if you had that installed. • Yes, If you have 32-bit Windows, you should install the 32-bit version. • Yes, If you have 64-bit Windows, you should install the 64-bit version (which includes the 32-bit version). Yes, you should upgrade to this version. • Yes, if you click this link it will take you to the download page. list end Where Can You Download It? I’ll have to assume that eventually Microsoft will offer IE9 through Windows Update, but for the moment, you’ll need to click the following link to download IE9. Remember to pick the right version for your operating system. http://www.beautyoftheweb.com/#/download image The new combined search/address bar is smart, and it’ll provide interesting suggestions right there in the browser itself. One of my favorites is the weather checker, which actually shows an image based on what’s going on outside. You know, cause looking out the window isn’t very geeky. image If you don’t like the combined Address Bar and Tabs on the same row, you can right-click on any of the tabs and choose “Show tabs on a separate row”. Note that you can also drag the divider between the address bar and the tabs to resize the address bar. image I totally stole this screenshot from Microsoft’s marketing page, since it does a great job of showing how the pinned sites feature works. Just drag the tab for any site to the taskbar, and voila! New pinned tab with a fun

Re: [AI] Query about gmail
google is becoming far too insensitive to the visually challenged user. the older version of the standard that worked a charmed with screen readers is now made unavailable, and now the auto fill in feature seems to have some problems. I don't have the issue all the time, its there at times, but not always. may be we should think of some ways of reaching our complaints to google as a collective so that they understand the magnitude of the problem. should we do an online petition? what do you all think? regards, On 11/17/10, Sharma G chintu.ra...@gmail.com wrote: Hi, On Monday, Google debuted some major changes. Google, one of the most popular search engines on the Web, is known for returning extremely relevant search results. Their recent partnership with Yahoo! has brought them publicity and increased traffic. What exactly are these new changes, and how will they affect you? Paid Links The new paid link program has been running for a couple weeks now, company officials say, but the program has gone unadvertised so that Google could slowly beta test the system. Paid links appear above normal search results. They have a different colored background and are marked Sponsored Link. The idea is to set off Google's editorial search results from the paid links in a visually distinct way, so users aren't confused about which results are paid and which come from Google's search algorithm. This is important for visitors who use Google because it produces excellent search results and don't just want to be told which company paid the most money for a listing. This new development is also important for Web site owners who use Google to get traffic. Much like GoTo or FindWhat, one can now pay a fee to be displayed prominently in a search for certain keywords on Google. This site has often preached the importance of being listed in Google. Google can send lots of traffic to your site, so just being in there at all is a must for the successful promotion of your site. Now there's a way you can be displayed at the top of the results for your keywords. There are a few caveats about this, however. I made a few test searches on Google that might be of interest to the netbusiness owner. The sponsored links returned were only for well-known very high-traffic sites. This, combined with the enormous popularity of Google, leads me to believe that paid links on Google might be quite expensive. There are no exact figures on the Google Web site, but I have a feeling that actually getting displayed for meaningful keywords could be too pricey for the small to medium business owner. Also, if you do get listed, I think that many users will be turned off by the sponsored links. People use Google more than pay for position search engines because of the usefulness of the results it returns. Google users are interested in what Google thinks the best match for their search is. As such, many of them will probably just skip the obviously marked sponsored links. Once again, I have to give Google a lot of credit for clearly distinguishing sponsored links from their normal search results and not trying to trick their visitors. Also, if a site has to have sponsors, it's great not having to wait for a banner to load to get your search results. Stock Quotes The second change Google made this week was to make it easier to find stock information. Now, whenever you search for a company's stock symbol on Google, at the top of the search results is a link to show the stock quotes for that company. Also, if you search by name for a publicly traded company, you get a link to that company's stock quotes. This is very convenient if you don't happen to know a company's symbol off the top of your head. Additional Languages Google's third big change is the inclusion of ten new search languages. Users can now display Google search tips, help pages, and messages in Czech, Estonian, Greek, Hebrew, Hungarian, Icelandic, Latvian, Lithuanian, Polish, and Romanian. This brings Google's total number of supported languages up to twenty-five. This is great for the ebusinessperson, who can now reach new users all over the world. So... Google is still the same search engine it was last week. It still returns very accurate search results, and people will continue using it in the same numbers they have in the past. source(http://www.ipowerweb.com/iboost/promote/search_engines/articles/20002.htmgood ) With regards, On 11/16/10, Shadab Husain shadab...@gmail.com wrote: I use Outlook Express, but so far search results are concerned - we need to bring up the heading list (insert + F6) and click on any result to navigate properly.

The unique car, expected to be built as early as next year, will be equipped with a new technology that would help a sightless person to get behind the wheel. The technology, called non-visual interfaces, will guide its driver through traffic by transmitting information about nearby vehicles or objects. Vibrating gloves or streams of compressed air directed behind the wheel are among the options for communicating the information needed to avoid collisions and reach a destination. The National Federation of the Blind of the U.S. and Virginia Tech, which are jointly developing the car, said they hope to demonstrate a prototype of the car in 2011, the Telegraph reported. “We’re exploring areas that have previously been regarded as unexplorable,” said Dr. Mark Maurer, president of the National Federation of the Blind. “We’re moving away from the theory that blindness ends the capacity of human beings to make contributions to society.” Mr. Maurer first came up with the idea that the blind could drive about a decade ago when he launched the organisation’s research institute. “Some people thought I was crazy, and they thought, ‘Why do you want us to raise money for something that can’t be done?’ Others thought it was a great idea,” Dr. Maurer said. “Some people were incredulous. Others thought the idea was incredible.” The vehicle is based in Virginia Tech’s 2007 entry into the DARPA Grand Challenge, a competition for driverless vehicles financed by the Defence Department’s research arm. The blind organisation was impressed by the invention, saying it is part of a broader mission, which will change the way people perceive the blind. Mark Riccobono, executive director of The NFB’s Jernigan Institute, said: “This will change when people see that we can do something that they thought was impossible.” Source: http://www.thehindu.com Voice your thoughts in the blog to discuss the Rights of persons with disability bill at: http://www.accessindia.org.in/harish/blog.htm To unsubscribe send a message to accessindia-requ...@accessindia.org.in with the subject unsubscribe.

Re: [AI] PNB CREDIT CARD FACILITY TO BLIND CUSTOMERS
although Punjab National Bank for ones has decided to come out of the rudd of discrimination against the disabled by formulating a policy to issue credit cards, that doesn't mean they are doing an act of charity to the visually challenged. it is a responsibility and a legal and constitutional stipulation that they are meetting. however as any such policy is open to public scrutiny, particularly on the part of the stake holders, there will be questions asked, clarifications sorted, and criticisms leveled against. that is how a democracy work, and one has to learn to be tolerant to this democratic right. although PNB's efforts at bringing a sense of clarity to the issue of credit card to the visually challenged is a welcomed step, many of us feel that some of the stipulations included in the proposed policy are unfair and even illogical. AI members working with PNB would do well to engage with these criticisms, and since they are better placed in the organization, they can take it up at the appropriate levels. that is entirely up to them, but at least crude remarks and assertions regarding the visually challenged who are struggling for their rights can be avoided.

Re: [AI] Faced difficulties in opening account in SBI.
if some of our friends are concerned about their banks being 'deformed', rather than preaching submission to the disabled, they can engage with the hideous structures of denial that exist within these institutions. I care more about my rights and claims than that of the name of some discriminating bloody brand. if the brand wants to maintain its good name, then it has to go by the law of the land. not by idiocy and nonsensesm.

Either they have to give us all the facilities or should reject our application by writing. In my view, we don't even need to show any circulars.

Re: [AI] Difficulties in Banking
well if convincing the bank manager as to why I need an ATM card is the basis of issuing the card, then that should apply to all customers. an ATM card is needed to take out money easily, and like anyone, I may can use it for the same. alternatily, I might just avail the facility, and just keep it locked away for ever. that is none of the bloody business of the bank. I need an ATM card because I am entitled to it. so long as it the demand is within the legal framework, the bank manager needs to know nothing more.

You can download the package from http://sourceforge.net/projects/swaram/files/Swaram.tar.gz/download This is an alpha release primarily intended for testing purposes and bug-fixing. This has been tested with version 1.96 of the festival speech engine, and is expected to work on GNU/Linux distributions which uses GNOME as the desktop interface. This programme was developed as part of the INSIGHT project ( insight.kerala.gov.in), a joint initiative of Kerala State IT Mission ( itmission.kerala.gov.in ) and SPACE ( space-kerala.org ).

Re: [AI] distributing books
I think although Dinesh tried to answer some of the issues I put forward, I haven't got anything to justify publishers or libraries including those of centrel universities like Jawaharlal Nehru University, not providing EBooks to disabled, even though the books are available to non-disabled students. and although there are sites like questia.com even those are expensive, and books are not available in portable formats, and you need net connection to read them, as only online reading is possible. if you need academic Ebooks, from publishers like sage or routledge, their sites charge you very high indeed. and if you are buying books, you have to put in additional unpaied labour of scanning them. so being at the wrong end of all these discrimination, I don't see any moral obligation to submit to discriminating laws. what Gandhi asked was not to submit to immoral laws, not using means that are based on arms. in scanning and distributing scanned book, there is no use of arms. On 10/9/09, Asudani, Rajesh rajeshasud...@rbi.org.in wrote: So dinesh, You are essentially saying that: 1. We should do our book related transactions through organizations of and for blind like NAB which can provide e text and daisy books to legally disabled persons on request. 2. refrain from publicly ask for books or post their availability notifications in fora of blind/disabled like AI Bookbole as it would entail their destruction sooner or later, and may make a book available to a non-disabled person. Now, here, what even such organizations are doing is nothing but violation of copyrights, till the law is amended at least. Making a fundamental right an exclusively institutionalized and secretive act, in my opinion, is cowardly and oversubmissive. I truly appreciate bookbole for their courage and openness. World, according to me, operates on extremely surfacical grounds and superfluous way. Authors and publishers are not at all going to feel the need for making the materials accessible until they feel a pinch in their pockets by mass distributions of their copyrighted works amongst the disabled. Anyway piracy is not highly uncommon even for general masses, so heavens are not going to fall if a few deserving disabled benefit. Besides, my earlier argument about widening the reach of books to individuals who otherwise would never have got a chance to appreciate them, remains to be answered by anybody. Besides, there is no justification of copyright or non-availability about educational books in accessible format to all. UNCRPD talks of access to cultural material and IPR not being a barrier to it. So, what are books but manifestations of cultural conscious? Exclusively Institutionalizing a basic need and right for the fear that its open manifestation would entail legal proceedings does not appeal to me. There was a time when living of blind/disabled and their pursuits of activity in general community were regarded dangerous and taxing resources too much. So, they were institutionalized as individuals fit for living only in institutions. What is wrong in that? Now, it is felt that books etc. should be provided secretly to disabled by their institutions as we are here for profit earnings and if we concede to demands of few persons with disabilities it would be too expensive and why bother about inferior minorities? So let the business of publishing flourish unabated without being open to widen its prospects of catering to wider but different audience, and let the disabled crave for even the basic of their needs and rights by forming organizations who do the same illegal thing but secretly. Let us bring it out in the open and strongly demand that right to read is the part and parcel of freedom of speech and expression and its illegitimate denial constitutes gross violation of our fundamental rights. Adequate safeguards can be envisaged once the right is recognized and accessibility is taken into account. We have been cowards all these years, fearing even to distribute even educational and informational content. Tagore had said: Let my country awaken into heaven, where every one holds their head high, Where knowledge is free.. And let me add: Accessible. Lending names may not lend credibility to any cause, but it is more than sufficient if one person, say, Rajesh Asudani, thinks in a particular way. I am not bound by dead past and great names. And, yes, I am not willing to tolerate any comparisons of blind community to blood-thirsty acts, the person concerned has not withdrawn it still. I am pained as a person who is blind and who is willing to openly advocate rights of persons with disabilities and who is willing to put up a fight with so called intellectuals who would not budge until their monetary interests are impinged upon. The fact that by sharing a book amongst disabled, it may be available to a non-disabled person, is a bi-product and side effect and a

Re: [AI] Staying connected internationally, on the cheap
is anyone using the Skypeout Service? what are the rates for STD calls within India? is there a way to buy Skypecards without using creditcards? I had checked the Skype website, but could not find much information in the Indian context. On 3/29/09, Vikas Kapoor dl.vi...@gmail.com wrote: Staying connected internationally, on the cheap Posted: 2009-03-29 23:53:18+05:30 IST Updated: Mar 29, 2009 at 2353 hrs IST : Looking for a system that not only lets you make inexpensive local calls but also allows friends and family back home to reach you cheaply. Here's a way: . The first thing you'll need is an unlocked mobile phone - that is, a phone that's not tied to one particular carrier. (In the US, some carriers will unlock your phone if you ask; abroad, most phones come already unlocked.) Then, whenever you arrive in a new country, you can buy a local SIM card (the tiny, interchangeable chip inside the phone that actually lets you connect to a particular carrier; they're sold at mobile phone stores and kiosks for $2 to $25, depending on the country) and make phone calls and send text messages without paying exorbitant international roaming fees. .Simple enough. But for folks back home to reach you, you'll need Skype. In the last few years, Skype has revolutionised how global nomads keep in touch. Install its software on your Mac or PC, and as long as you've got an internet connection, you can make high-quality audio and video calls to other Skype users almost anywhere on earth. (A few countries, like the UAE, unfortunately block the service.) .Skype, however, also lets you call out to mobile phones and land lines (a service called SkypeOut) and enables you to have your own phone number in any of 23 countries, including the US, Hong Kong, France and Italy (this is called SkypeIn). .Both SkypeOut and SkypeIn carry a relatively low fee. SkypeOut calls to land lines can be as little as 2 cents a minute, while calls to mobile phones are usually a bit more. A SkypeIn subscription, meanwhile, costs $60 a year or $18 for three months. All you have to do before leaving home is to set your American cellphone (an older-generation iPhone) to forward to your SkypeIn number, and all you have to do when you arrive in a new country is get a SIM card, go online and set the Skype software's preferences to forward all calls to the new number. Here's how it works. The caller dials your regular number which is forwarded to your SkypeIn number, which, in turn, forwarded (via SkypeOut) to your international cellphone number. .Unfortunately, Skype does not exist for the iPhone. Instead, you can use a free third-party application called Fring, which functions as a kind of Skype-to-cellphone phone gateway, letting you access your Skype account wherever you have a Wi-Fi signal. (Fring also works on many other smartphones, and lets you connect to a host of other internet communications services, like AIM, MSN Messenger, Twitter and Last.fm.) Just open a Fring account, give Fring your Skype account details, and you're set to make SkypeOut calls to anyone you wish. .Two weeks ago, Google announced a new service called Google Voice that operates much like Skype - only cheaper! Google says the service will be open at first only to users of GrandCentral (a startup Google bought almost two years ago); it will be available to the general public in a few weeks.

Re: [AI] query from thahir
a highly controversial question indeed. as expected there are people with different views on the matter. I believe the question as such does come broadly under issues of accessibility. I can understand the arguements against this on the basis of too much of things for the list to handil and therefor the possibility of losing focus. but culture, Indian culture, well that is all together a different issue. ones morality, values are all shaped in the context in which one is brought up. that is different for different people. but the moment one says that his or her values are higher than that of some one else, then that is big trouble. in fact, that is the language of fascism. I certainly don't think access India is the forum for moral policing by any means. anybody have the freedom to access or not access pornographic materials, but I believe any questions on the matter should not be restricted on the basis of a culture based arguement, as that might end up supporting those elemends in the society, who are against tolerence and inclusivity. olso one must remember in this context, 'Kamasutra' was not authered by an American or a Europian, but by Vatsyayana, the great Indian sage. so on the basis of focus OK, but please, not that cultural thing.

I think the question does relate to accessibility and internet for visually impaired, and as such, may be legitimately construed to be within bounds of the group, but for the fact that pornography or any sexually colored material is illegal in India and so the group may not discuss anything illegal. However, please remember that law does change with mores of society and what is a taboo today is a common sense of tomorrow. Moreover, binding accessibility to legality is unfair, me thinks. Sight does not regard the bounds of legality or otherwise. Life with its joys and enchantments ought to be equally available to all, is the hallmark of accessibility. And Shadab, the ones whom you have, without any moderatorial jurisdiction, publicly termed raunchy, are the respected members of community, working and teaching in reputed institutions. A person does not become antisocial merely by recognizing inherent needs of all human kind. rather it is undu suppression and repression of the same which renders humans brute many a times. Only objection to the query in the message is manifest illegality of the pornography in India, but the effort about universality of accessibility is commendable. On this note, I would like to share that the movie Dev D is said to have bypassed censors by substituting sexually explicit scenes with dialogue which is less appealing to sight but more appealing I think to listeners like us. Maybe, the director, though not consciously thinking about accessibility, has achieved the aim partially at least. I intend to watch it shortly and call upon all the visually impaired to do so to get an experience. of the movie. Otherwise, so prudish are we the Indians, that even video described movies like Black, we shun to describe scenes involving expressions of love, kissing, for instance, even though such scenes form the essence of the movie and are inextricably linked to its theme. As a result, we the visually impaired, are far lagging behind in

We have the handibuses that come and pick you up and drop you in your doorway. So, what are the reasons that a blind person won't want to work?

Re: [AI] Two-day National Conferenceon'DisabilityandDisenchantment:New Challenges and Evolvingdirections'
Hi Vidya and others. I don't think I can agree with your view of the seminar being only concerned with the visually challenged. if you go through the schedule, you can see that other than the last session, no other session is VC spesific. this is a seminar where we are thinking of bringing together, the activist and the policy maker maker, with the larger academic community. there has to be a better linkage between policy and theory. in the field of higher education, disability as such has not been theorized enough, and that is reflected in the policy making process. this national seminar is jointly organized by the office of equal opportunities; JNU, and the JNU visually challenged forum. therefore there will be some emphasis on the visually challenged, but in the larger scheme this is a seminar on disability in general, not on the visually challenged. we hope to see AI members in good numbers, at least those people in around Delhi.

[AI] google crome and Jaws.
Hi list. google over the years has been a company that has tried to understand the concerns of the visually challenged and follow an inclusive policy. in this context I tried to download and use their new revolutionary development, the new webbrouser Google Crome. but I feel its not quite accessible with Jaws as of now. has anybody tried it out olready? are there any scripts available for the same? if there are accessiblity issues, then I believe we should bring it to Google's attention, as they have a history of addressing our concerns. regards. -- Mahesh S.

Re: [AI] facilities given by punjab national bank to visually impaired persons
I am afraid this means that the same kind of dificulties that are particularly associated with PNB is to be continued in a different way. the procedure for issuing ATMs remains rather complex and long, and the idea of the witness can be used to trouble a visually challenged person as has been happening more often than not.

Re: [AI] facilities given by punjab national bank to visuallyimpaired persons
technicaly its a one time activity. however my experience with PNB suggests otherwise. each time I needed to withdraw money, they needed someone to witness it. it really is a trouble for the VC person. in fact, it was this problem that really forced me into a 6 month long struggle with the bank for an ATM card.

[AI] jaws scripts for Kaspersky antivirus
hi list. today I have instaled Kaspersky antivirus on my computer but I am not able to make full use of it as Jaws refuse to work with it perfectly. the Jaws cursor doesn't work with the software. I tried to get over the problem by reinstaling Jaws, but the problem is not solved yet. I was wondering if there are any Jaws skripts available for Kaspersky? since its the best antivirus available, there should be some way to get around with the compatebility issues? can I solve the problem by making any setting change in Jaws or the AntiVirus as such? looking for your suggestions. -- Mahesh S.
