 Hi, Eclipse IDE is fairly accessible with JAWS. I used Eclipse 3.x and
 4.x with JAWS 13 without any trouble. I used it with java, it worked
 very well and did not face any accessibility issue. The Standard
 widget toolkit bundled with eclipse is very useful to develop the
 accessible java application. So go ahead with eclipse.

Re: [AI] Search for suitable spouse on behalf of friend

2013-04-19 Thread Rahul Bajaj
I have always observed that we waste far too much time in framing guidelines 
about what cannot be discussed instead of focusing on what can be discussed.. 
A platform like AccessIndia can be very effectively used to discuss all aspects 
of blindness.. 
Half of the posts here are made to urge the moderator to close a discussion. 
Wouldn't it be more prudent to simply have the discussion and get over with it? 
Of course, spam messages, etc should never be allowed, but I, for one, see no 
harm in discussing such pertinent issues or in congratulating someone on the 
list for their achievement.. 
We must remember that this list is meant to facilitate discussions, not to 
hinder them.. 
Needless to say, these are purely my own views.

Re: [AI] Search for suitable spouse on behalf of friend

2013-04-19 Thread srikanth bolla
I agree with you Avinash.
   What's wrong in discussing a major important issue of search for
potential life partner? When we are discussing about far less important
things like exchanging the contact information and other stuffed, posting a
search for spouse is completely acceptable since most of our members of
blind and also this creates awareness but not whilates the list guidelines.
By the way, people hardly know about AI guidelines. It would be helpful if
the   guidelines are circulated once in a month or two to   update all new
members.  To be honest, I don't know the guidelines. Regards,

Mohib, before asking this, why didn't you think liking and softness varies

And, DU, yes DU. that's my friend's personal choice. In fact, I also asked

Finally, I wonder, why people unnecessarily jump for regulating posts?
perhaps due to right to speech and expression, here right to textual freedom

I am well-aware of AI's guidelines, and I had mentioned this well in front.
So please, don't attempt to regulate which is not warranted.
Since majority of members blind here, seeking for blind partner should be
facilitated on the list,if possible.
But it would be better if people ask their queries and help off the list.
Don't trouble those, who have nothing to do with such posts, and their

Dear all,

I fully agree with Srikanth on his views about the posting of marriage
searches on the list. I wonder if only matters relating to policy,
employment,technology, accessibility and so on are important to vision
impaired people and not marriage. Why do members try to instruct the
moderator or warn other members when some unusual but relevant issue
is discussed on this platform? Let's respect others and refrain from
regulating posts made by fellow members.

[AI] Book Review: Towards a contextual psychology of disablism

2013-04-19 Thread avinash shahi
, by Brian Watermeyer, London, Routledge, 2012, 254 pp., £80.00
(hardback), ISBN 978-0-41-568160-5

Brian Watermeyer has produced a book that clearly shows one can remain
politicised, be fascinated by the body and theorise in new, exciting
and challenging ways. This text indicates that disability studies
might be understood as a commons in which to bring new theories and
practices to life in ways that comprehend the complex conditions of
disablism and dis/ability. Watermeyer’s book is an outstanding text
that deserves to be read by researchers, activists and practitioners
whose work engages with the politics and ambitions of disability.
Watermeyer draws on his unique perspective as a disabled activist,
researcher and clinical psychologist – writing from the context of
South Africa – to bravely and powerfully explore the relationships
between self-hood and ideology; psychology and society; unconscious
and conscious experiences of a disabling world. He begins the book by
arguing that we need to create a safer, more generous terrain of
theoretical engagement with disablism while also acknowledging our
righteous outrage. Words of wisdom we could all do well to keep in
mind. Given Watermeyer’s profession, psychoanalytic concepts populate
the text – including fantasies, trauma, splitting, unconscious,
reaction formation, projection, introjection, and so on. Rather than
allowing these terms to individualise or limit the politics of
disability, Watermeyer considers the extent to which these concepts
offer political usage. This, then, is a critical psychological text: a
text mindful of psychology’s historical contribution to the
pathologisation of disabled people, but also a book aware of the
multiple offerings of critical psychological theories. Watermeyer
provides a defence of psychology by demonstrating how this discipline
can be used from those inside and outside psychology, including the
social and natural sciences and the humanities (disciplines
traditionally associated with disability studies). Watermeyer’s work
is not unlike the radical writings of the Frankfurt School: rescuing
psychology from the apolitical, mediocre, middle-class world of
mainstream psychology and re-siting concerns in the socio-political
and psycho-emotional context of disability discourse.

Anyone new to the fields of psychoanalysis and psychology should not
be put off by this book: this is an accessible read. Watermeyer has a
number of aims that he helpfully clarifies and returns to, time and
again, throughout the text. He seeks to consider the ways in which
disability speaks to dis-quieting parts of our inner lives and
encourages us to open up and relate to these apprehensions and
unconscious ideas. Disability evokes wider cultural and individual
fantasies that in many ways contribute to more conscious and overt
practices of exclusion. His purpose is, in part, to ‘deliberately
model an engagement with those realities which are often hidden and
always complicated’ (6). He suggests that, through this model,
disability researchers, activists and professionals can take a more
courageous position: drawing on social and psychological theories that
provide practical resources for ‘signposting the obscure terrain of
unconscious disability symbolism, relational dynamics and internal
experience’ (7). All this might sound rather heady, fanciful and
complicating. But, as one reads, Watermeyer is at pains to ensure that
any analysis of disablism must engage with the complex ways in which
it works. His analysis remains admirably accessible, readable and
stimulating. This is disability studies scholarship of the highest
calibre: pushing the study of disablism into areas hitherto ignored.
And he draws on theories that have either been placed on the outskirts
of disability or rejected because of their apparent association with
medicalising, individualising and pathologising analyses of
disability. The key resource for Watermeyer is critical
psychoanalysis. Indeed, he never lets an analysis of disability nor
disablism stay on the level of the individual, the body or the psyche:
instead, he is at pains to provide an analysis that always
acknowledges the social, cultural and political. This is quite an
achievement and is in no small part due to his extensive reading and
knowledge of the disability studies literature. Those readers who
associate their stance with the British social model of disability
will find that this book often speaks to this materialist approach.
Consequently, Watermeyer has no desire to reject materialism but he
does seek to address this perspective’s tendency to occlude the
psychological, psychical or experiential interiority. This book will
also be of interest to readers outside Britain because it draws far
and wide from disability studies literature across the globe, taking
in theorists from North America, Canada and the United Kingdom as well
as contributions from Indian, Africa and Latin America. This is a
global text.

a blind can understand another blind, a sighted cann’t. A little example, if 
my capsloc key on laptop is not working while using jaws as expected, how 
big it is a problem for me, my fellow blind can understand. I believe mental

In addition to this, mostly visually impaired or partially sighted girls
believe that a blind boy or man cannot take proper care of her and perhaps
her life is not secured with a blind guy. But I appreciate, some of females
do not want to marry with a sighted man even though they get the opportunity
to do so.
I may write more on this soon, as I am engaged with some other work

Yes, Agreed with Bhawani sir.
In fact, if totally blind women have to choose among totally blind,
partially blind and sighted man, they also give priority to sighted
and partially man over totally blind
This trend is general, but some blind from both genders prefer own
peers mates over any considerations, that is exception.
All depends where both genders stand at maritable time on
educational/economic fronts.
moreover,there are many cases where after experiencing deception from
sighted/partially partners, both make up their minds to patch up with
totally blind partners.
Let me share my own experience to substantiate my view.
During my  initial graduation days, heartbeat of my left heart used to
beat at extranormal pace for one very inocent, intellegent, soulful ,
lovable, cute blind girl. I was in profound love and was in dellemma
how to propose her to get her side of the story. somehow, i made this
known to her one night on phone, that she was special for me. It was
the time like Tsunami erupted in my body, she respected my feelings
for her, but very gently replied: Avinash: 'I don't think like that, I
am focused for my studies.'
I was jolted for a moment, but she was free to choose his love, aren't
she? I composed myself and pressed cancil button unwillingly.
Days passed, months gone, and now after six years, I got to know that
from close sources that she did disapprove my proposal solely on
ground of fearing how two totally blind will manage together.
Her obsession with partially/sighted is a normal desire of majority of us.
Probably, I will marry to a sighted girl, if another Tsunami doesn't
take place too

[AI] World's first smartphone for the blind, made in India

2013-04-19 Thread Sanchit Katiyar
World's first smartphone for the blind, made in India

 The writer has posted comments on this article. Chitra Unnithan, TNN |
 Apr 19, 2013, 03.25 AM

 AHMEDABAD: The world's first smartphone for blind people is here.
 Soon, they will be able to read SMSes and emails on this phone, which
 converts all text into Braille patterns.

 We have created the world's first Braille smartphone, says its
 innovator, Sumit Dagar, whose company is being incubated at the Centre
 for Innovation Incubation and Entrepreneurship, located in IIM
 Ahmedabad campus. This product is based on an innovative 'touch
 screen' which is capable of elevating and depressing the contents it
 receives to transform them into 'touchable' patterns, he says.

 Dagar, who is a post-graduate from the National Institute of Design
 (NID), says he was motivated to develop the device when he realised
 that so far, technology was only serving the mainstream and ignoring
 the marginalised. He is collaborating with IIT Delhi on making the
 prototype, which is currently being tested at L V Prasad Eye Institute
 in Hyderabad.

 The response during the test has been immense. It comes out as a
 companion more than a phone to the user. We plan to do more advanced
 versions of the phone in the future, Dagar adds.

 Dagar started the project three years ago while studying interaction
 designing at NID. After working with a couple of companies, he gave up
 his job to concentrate on his technology, formed a team of six people
 and started his venture, Kriyate Design Solutions. Currently, the
 venture is being funded by Rolex Awards under its Young Laureates
 Programme, in which they select five people from across the world
 every two years and fund their projects.

 How it works

• The smartphone uses Shape Memory Alloy technology, based on the
 concept that metals remember their original shapes, i.e. expand and
 contract to its original shape after use.

• The phone's 'screen' has a grid of pins, which move up and down as
 per requirement. The grid has a Braille display, where pins come up to
 represent a character or letter.

• This screen will be capable of elevating and depressing the contents
 to form patterns in Braille.

• All other elements are like any other smartphone.

 Hi Friends,
 I want to learn Chess. I have a Chess board at home.
 Should I learn it from a visually challenged person specifically,  or
 is it fine if
  Any one else teaches me?
 Should that person take training to teach me?

[AI] Doubt regarding computer

2013-04-19 Thread Sneha nair
Hello all, greetings.
As the subject line indicates, I have a doubt regarding using computer
(in general) with JAWS. I've been using computer for past 4 years. The
problem is that when I try to search some materials online, suddenly
JAWS stops speaking altogether. I used to give restart and it worked
for some time. However, it does not work now. When I try to give
restart using the usual procedure (JAWS not speaking), I'm not able to
do it. Can we do anything about this, other than using the reset
option? To give reset option, I know is harmful for the system. Is
there any solution for this problem? Friends, please help me.

With regards,
Sneha.
