[AI] Government rapped for refusing handicapped girl a job
Government rapped for refusing handicapped girl a job http://www.thaindian.com/newsportal/uncategorized/government-rapped-for-refusing-handicapped-girl-a-job_100400251.html Thaindian News New Delhi, July 22 (IANS) The Supreme Court has pulled up the central government for denying a job to physically handicapped girl Pritilata Nanda of Orissa on the grounds that she did not get her name routed through an employment exchange. Nanda was also awarded damages of Rs.300,000. Besides the central government, four officials of South Eastern Railways were also slammed for showing “lack of sensitivity”. Nanda suffers from paralysis of the lower limbs. In a order delivered last Friday but released only Thursday, a bench of Justice G.S. Singhvi and Justice Asok Kumar Ganguly said getting the name sponsored by an employment exchange could not be equated with mandatory provision incorporated in a statute, the violation of which may make the person concerned liable to penal consequences. The court said that the conduct of the railway officials was “constitutionally flawed”, thus depriving Nanda of her “legitimate right to be appointed on a class III post”. The court directed the central government to pay Nanda Rs.300,000 in damages as she was deprived of her rights for almost 21 years. “This appeal (by the centre and South Eastern Railway) is one of the many cases illustrative of lack of sensitivity on the part of those entrusted with the task of doing justice on the administrative side which is the sine qua non (condition) for good governance,” the order said. The court said that in her battle spanning over 21 years, Nanda “became so frustrated that even though she succeeded in convincing the high court to issue a direction to the competent authority to appoint her on a Class III post with retrospective effect, she has not thought it proper to appear and contest this appeal (filed by the central government and others) against the order passed by the division bench of the Orissa High Court”. Besides the costs, the court directed the South Eastern Railway to issue, within two weeks, an order appointing Nanda to a class three post. Her appointment shall be made effective from the date the person placed at serial number 12 in the merit list was appointed, the order said. Nanda’s pay shall be notionally fixed from the date of her appointment and she would be given actual monetary benefits with effect from Sep 5, 2008, the date specified in the high court’s order, the apex court said. Besides this, she would entitled to all other benefits including revision of pay from time and promotions, if any. The court also directed the general manager, South Eastern Railways to ensure that she was not harassed by being posted to remote areas. The official has been asked to send the compliance report to the court by Nov 22.

[AI] 2010 WEB THREATS REVEALED
Crimes of convenience Crimes of convenience Don't fear scareware Lost laptops exposed data Data theft in public private Privacy policy loopholes Additional resources Antivirus software and a firewall alone can't guarantee your safety. Tony Bradley explains how to foil the latest crop of sneaky attacks and nefarious attempts to steal your data If there's one technology-related story that's caught your attention this year, it's probably the one about Google pulling out of China (see tinyurl.com/yavzk6 grams ). Leaving aside the issues of human rights and web filtering, the nub of this story is that Google was attacked because the browser its employees were using to perform web searches was insecure. Internet Explorer (IE) was so riddled with holes that Microsoft was forced to issue an emergency patch. But the damage had already been done: Chinese hackers were able to target Google, and an international dispute was ignited. When the government urges you to seriously consider switching allegiance from IE to Mozilla Firefox or Google Chrome (as happened in France and Italy), you know there's some pretty bad stuff going on behind the scenes. Unfortunately, IE vulnerabilities aren't all you need to worry about. Many of the web threats out there are avoidable: in most cases, you simply need to learn to spot the signs or recognise that the information you're sharing may leave you open to attack. Scareware, for instance, has proved one of the biggest security headaches of the past two years, trading on your fear that your PC and the data stored on it might be at risk. Sometimes, such malware will also try to dupe you into believing it's there to help. Do you know how to guard against scareware? How about Trojan horse text messages? Or social-network data harvesting? Malicious hackers are a resourceful bunch and their methods continually evolve to target the changing ways we use our computers. New attack techniques allow bad guys to stay one step ahead of security software and to get the better of even cautious and well-informed PC users. Don't let that happen to you. Read on for descriptions of the most recent and most malignant security threats, as well as our advice on how to stop them in their tracks. Make a few sensible changes to the way you behave and you'll avoid almost all the threats with ease. But with more - and more sophisticated - threats out there than ever before, it's worth casting your eyes over the following and checking you're not at risk. CRIMES OF CONVENIENCE One of the biggest hidden threats on the web today has come about through our desire to get where we want faster and with less fuss. The problem is shortened URLs, which offer a shorthand link to a website without you having to type the full address. You'll find shortened URLs in newspapers, magazines and online, particularly if you use Twitter. Bit.ly, TinyURL, Tr.im and Goo.gl are all common examples. We use such links to point to longer reviews or in-depth news stories to which we've alluded in print. They break up the narrative less and are easier and quicker to type in than the original web address. In short, they're convenient. The trouble is, it's not immediately clear where those links will take you. Short URLs give no hint of the destination, which means attackers can exploit them to send you to malicious sites. AVOID SHORT URL PITFALLS If you're keen to continue using shortened URLs, use a preview tool to see where that seemingly innocent link intends to take you. Twitter users should try TweetDeck ( tweetdeck.com), which includes an option in the Settings menu to display previews of shortened URLs. With this enabled, clicking a shortened URL within a tweet brings up a screen that shows the destination page's title, as well as its full-length URL and a tally of how many other people have clicked that link. With this information at your disposal, you can make an informed decision about whether to click through and visit t he site. You can use similar methods on other short links you come across. Several browser plug-ins and services offer a preview function. When you create a shortened address at TinyURL.com, for instance, the service provides both a shortened URL and a preview version that will show readers where it goes before they click on it. Conversely, if you're considering visiting a TinyURL link, you can enable its preview service ( tinyurl.com/preview.php) to see the complete URL. Note that you must have cookies enabled in your browser. Both ExpandMyURL.com and LongURLPlease.com provide web-browser plug-ins or applets that will verify the safety of the full URLs behind abbreviated links from all the major URL-shortening services. Rather than changing the shortened links to their full URLs, however, ExpandMyURL checks destination sites in the background and marks the URLs green if they are safe. Goo.gl, Google's URL-shortening service, provides security by automatically scanning

Re: [AI] about nokia phone,
Hi Vetri, This is Satguru from New Delhi, India. I've just bought Nokia C5 three days back and installed talks V5.003 (demo version). Here are my findings: 1. Don't know about the appearance of the contact window visually, but totaly inaccessible with talks. However, since I used my previous sim which has all my contacts stored so I know them all and I search them by typing a few innitial alphabates. 2. Talks crashes when opening profiles and screen goes totally black for few seconds and resumes automatically with talks reading the standby screen. 3. You can't make an outgoing call with talks running; you will have to mute it before pressing the call button. If you don't do so, and press the call button, the above mentioned thing will happen and you will be landed on the main window (Standby). 4. Soft key2 (command to anounse caller's name when incoming call is there) doesn't work. Pressing this key to hear the caller's name also would yeald the same result. and you will not be able to take that call. (call gets disconnected and phone returns to main window).

Re: [AI] Acting blind is difficult: Deepika
These film producers and directors do not understand the simple fact that instead of taking huge efforts of training Deepika for blind person they very well could have chosen some blind female for the job. It would have opened a new avenue in the world of V.I's hidden talents. It is like, in order to master an art of walking on the water you spent ages. Whereas, you pay just 5 10 rupees and get ferried from 1 end to the other. But who will tell this people and who is going to listen.

Releasing Aug 20, it will see Neil playing a boxer who fights blindfolded, while Deepika will be seen as a visually challenged girl who can dance on skates. The biggest challenge was to pretend that I was not seeing. There were no supporting tools like black goggles or a stick with me to make it obvious that I am blind.

[AI] New treatment for severe eye disease found
New treatment for severe eye disease found ANIThursday, July 22, 2010 18:12 IST Email Washington, DC: Researchers may have found a new treatment for retinitis pigmentosa (RP), a severe neurodegenerative disease of the retina that ultimately results in blindness. University of Massachusetts Medical School (UMMS) researcher Shalesh Kaushal, MD, PhD, chair of ophthalmology and associate professor of ophthalmology and cell biology and his team conducted the study. Results from this study, in conjunction with prior in vitro data, suggest valproic acid may be an effective treatment for photoreceptor loss associated with RP. Five of the seven patients in the study experienced improvement in their field of vision. Because of its already known qualities as a potent inhibitor of the inflammatory response pathway and cell death, valproic acid was believed to have a unique profile making it a potential candidate as a retinal disease treatment. Repurposing drugs already approved by the FDA and which have been shown to be safe, such as valproic acid, is an economical and time-efficient way to quickly bring new treatments to patients, said Kaushal. The study is published in the July 20 online edition of the British Journal of Ophthalmology. http://www.dnaindia.com/health/report_new-treatment-for-severe-eye-disease-found_1413160 Vikas Kapoor, MSN Id:dl_vi...@hotmail.com, YahooSkype Id: dl_vikas, Mobile: (+91) 9891098137.

Re: [AI] Acting blind is difficult: Deepika
Sir, No commercial producer makes a film for charity purpose. The first and most aim for producing a film is always making money. Deepika can add glamour in film, while it is tough to do same for any unknown visually impaired face. So it is good to hope for a good film, which doesn’t at least spread any wrong message. Thanks.

Accessibility discussion forum Subject: [y-accessibility] Regarding the Clasic Yahoo! mail and its compatibility with screen readers Hello all, On numerous occasions we received feedback from users of the Classic Yahoo! Mail indicating that they had a lot of problems when using it with JAWS and Internet Explorer. Some of the problems include sluggishness when moving between pages and crashes of JAWS altogether. While we cannot exactly pinpoint the source of those problems, several things we do know for sure: 1. NVDA works fine with both Internet Explorer and Firefox when using Classic yahoo! Mail. 2. JAWS works OK with Firefox and Classic Yahoo! Mail, although we did notice infrequent crashes. 3. JAWS also works with Internet Explorer and Clasic Mail but crashes are more frequent and the sluggishness can be observed. It would help tremendously to hear from users who encounter those problems with as much information as possible so that we can try to reproduce them consistently. Once we identify one or two reproduceable cases, we will work with Freedom Scientific toward resolving existing problems. Thanks for your understanding and we look forward to your feedback.

Re: [AI] users of Angel reply
Sir,
This is just my openian about angel, it may be wrong.
The battery backup is quite good.
Radio quality is also not bad.
Volume is loud enough.
Recording quality is average.
The size of angel is quite big, in compare of other products of its kind.
The main drawback is Both the TTS are genuinely bad. So it’s really
too tough to read for a long time.
The daisy playback and daisy navigation are also not up to the mark.
For this purpose buddy is better option. It is chipper lighter and more stylish
Though it has not TTS in this release, but it will come in near
future. And you can get it in firmware update.
For more detail of buddy you can contact i...@saksham.org
Thanks.

Re: [AI] Government rapped for refusing handicapped girl a job
thanks for sharing the information. the text of the decision is being pasted below. REPORTABLE IN THE SUPREME COURT OF INDIA CIVIL APPELLATE JURISDICTION CIVIL APPEAL NO.5646 OF 2010 (Arising out of SLP (C) No.12866 of 2009) Union of India and others Appellants Versus Miss Pritilata Nanda Respondent O R D E R Leave granted. Theonly question which arises for consideration in this appeal filed by the Union of India and four functionaries of South Eastern Railway against the order of the Division Bench of Orissa High Court is whether respondent Miss Pritilata Nanda, who is physically handicapped, could be denied appointment on Class III post despite her selection by the competent authority only on the ground that she did not get her name sponsored by an employment exchange. Since the inception of mankind, many lacs have suffered from different types ofphysical handicaps (today about 600 million people suffer from such handicaps), but many of them overcame all kinds of handicaps and achieved distinctions in various fields. Sarah Bernhardt French actress was disabled by a knee injury. Her leg was amputated in 1914 but she continued to work on stage until just before her death. Beethoven was deaf when he composed his 9th symphony. Winston Churchill, Walt Disney, Thomas Edison, Albert Einstein, Alexander Graham Bell, Nelson Rockefeller, George Washington and many others had learning disability. Stevie Wonder who was blinded during his childhood became world famous pianist and singer. Brail, whowasa blind,had the distinction of inventing script for the blind. With the aid of brail script, a large numberofphysically handicapped(blind) made tremendous achievement in life. Dr. Hellen Keller who was blind became an international figure because despite her handicap, she discovered the world through her finger tips.Her achievements of difficult goals and her loving kindness made her life an inspiration for countless people all over the world. Expressing his admiration for Dr. Hellen Keller, Eleanor Roosevelt wroteinher life and happiness in life, Miss Keller has taught an unforgettable lesson to the rest of us who would not have had such difficulties to overcome. Ralph Barton Perry in his introduction to Dr. Keller's book `The Story of My Life' wrote it is true that Hellen Keller is handicapped as indeed, who is not but that which distinguishes her is not her handicap but the extent to which she has overcome it and even profited by it. She calls for sympathy and understanding and not pity. Noone canknowher or read her without feeling admiration and gratitude.Soordas and Milton, both of whom were blindmade poetry greatbytheirbrilliance and richness of thoughts and language. Edison, a great scientist and inventor was deaf. Byron, a great poet of England and Taimoor Leng, Mangolian warrior were lame. Maharaja Ranjit Singh, a great warrior and administrator was handicapped in eye sight. Mr. Mukat Behari Lal, a renowned and eminent advocate of the country, who became blind at a young age acquired phenomenal memory and argued cases after cases with extraordinary brilliance.Healsoremained memberof Parliament for two decades and did not face any difficulty in discharging his role in that capacity. The framers of the Constitution recognized the necessity of providingassistance to the physically challenged by making it obligatory for theState, within thelimitsof its economic capacity and development, to make effective provision for securing the right to work, to education and to public assistance in cases of unemployment, old age, sickness and disablement, and in other cases of undeserved want. (Article 41). In Jacob M. Puthuparambil and others v. Kerala Water Authority and others (1991) 1 SCC 28, this Court highlighted the importance of both, Part III and Part IV of the Constitution in the following words: The Preamble of our Constitution obligates the State to secure to all its citizens social and economic justice, besides political justice. By the Forty-second Amendment, the Preamble of the Constitution was amended to say that ours will be a socialistic

Re: [AI] about nokia n72
Hi, Try to flash your phone by pressing * numeric 3 and the green button at the same time immediately when you press the power button to switch it on and keep holding them until you hear the starting tune.

Re: [AI] Nokia's Multiscanner Application
what is the utility of KNFV reader please clear so that we can be benefitted.

In E71, E72 and E66 phones you will find this application as part of submenu in Office. It is useful for us as we can scan text and cards(business cards) and then save it as notes or text or email / sms it. it is not as good as KNFB but a free application available with these high end phones. Accuracy may not be high or sometimes disappointing but a handy thing on your phone.

Re: [AI] Doubt on N73
using n 73 music edition with talks 5: the selection command of holding the talks key and navigation key is not working for me. i could not copy from a text message. the other editing functions working fine. On 7/23/10, chetan sharma chetansha...@obc.co.in wrote: Let me try to address your second problem.The likelyhood is that your handset has been infected with a virus. To verify this, carefully check your log enries and see whether there are entries of many failed outgoing SMS messages that you haven't actually sent. Sooner or later, you might also experience that the battery of your handset is getting discharged rather quickly.I think, restoring the phone to its original factory settings will not help in this case. scann your phone and memory card with a good antivirus. still, If the problem persists get in touch with me off the list and I will walk you through a somewhat complicated procedure that I hope, should fix the issue. Best regards, Chetan Sharma - Original Message - From: Tanya t_bals...@yahoo.com To: accessindia@accessindia.org.in Sent: Friday, July 23, 2010 10:26 AM Subject: [AI] Doubt on N73 Hi all, Is there a way of using the concept of copy, paste in N73? For example, if ther is a number I have got via SMS, can I copy and paste it in my contact list? The other thing is that something strange has happened. Normally when a text message fails to go, I get an error saying, failed to send message and the message stays in the outbox. But this time, neither did I get the error, nor is there an option to resend or delete the message from the outbox. Any idea what could be done now? Looking forward to your assistance. Thanks guys and have a great weekend. Disabilities create barriers, but determination breaks them.
