[AI] Moderator: List guidelines

2019-10-09 Thread Kotian, H P




Dear Members of AccessIndia

With festivals round the corner, I would like to draw your attention, that 
seasons greetings are not permitted on the list. Please enjoy the festivals and 
take care and don't get into trouble needlessly.
I also see some mails referring to cracks. Besides, some topics are dragged 
needlessly. Read on.


With new members joining all the time, and with a view to promote healthy 
discussion on the list, we shall be sending this guidelines periodically.

Topics permitted:
1 Accessibility
2 Disability
3 Government policy effecting the disabled
4 Developments taking place concerning the disabled
5 Technical support


Not permitted at all

1 cracks, or anything to do with piracy
2 Hate mails or maligning members, other lists, NGO's
3 Seasons greetings / welcome mails
4 personal messages
5 advertisements, it may be clarified, there is a difference between providing 
information and misusing the list to sell wares.

Recommend interactions:

1 Make a meaningful subject line
2 When the topic changes, make the changes in the subject line accordingly
3 Write your comments on the top of a mail while continuing a discussion
4 Do not reply when receiving mails in digest form. Put your comments into a 
new mail.
5 Only moderator can prefix moderator: in the subject line. This is to attract 
attention of all members. No comments should be made to this mail.
6 Do check on prior posting, Link for the same is available at the footer of 
each mail.
7 Do respect every member and do not downcast anyone. This would also include 
poor language skills. Should you desire to help fellow members, you may do so 
by private mail and not on the list.
8 Should you have any concern regarding any posting or any decisions of the 
moderator, please write to the moderator and not vitiate the list.
9 Do not drag a point or issue beyond a point. We do not run opinion poll.
10 If there is posting, which is otherwise off-topic but you desire to share it 
with the group, please obtain prior permission from the moderator
11 Please do not share contact details of third party / persons. This would be 
infringing on their privacy.

12 Finally, be brief and to the point and write only if you have substantial to 
say. You do not have to respond to each mail.

Please note: all posting made to this list is easily available to search 
engines and hence, posting once made cannot be retracted. We carry this 
disclaimer in the footer of every mail.

We now have set up a team of mentors to bring about a healthy mailing list 
etiquette. Please extend your full cooperation to them.

Sincerely
Harish Kotian

Re: [AI] Inaccessibility of audio captcha of SBI

It works with internet explorer as well in latest version. Once you select 
audio capture activate virtual cursor by pressing insert + z, press tab 
once and activate play button by pressing control + p, it will announce 
captcha, disable virtual cursor by pressing same key combination. And enter 
captcha in required field

Hi in order to make it work with IE, do the following: After selecting
the audio capture radio button, turn the virtual curser off and then
press the tab key until you hear Play button. Press the space bar on
it and listen to the 5 digit number. After hearing it, turn on the
Virtual curser again and press shift+E to get to the edit field. Enter
the number on the capture field and then hit "log-in. Now you should
be able to log-in successfully.

[AI] Joshua Brockman Reported for the New York Times in July 2019: At Banks and Fund Firms, Access Is Too Often Denied, Blind and Deaf Investors Say

2019-10-09 Thread avinash shahi
Albert Rizzi gave up on trying to manage his nest egg because as a
blind person, he encountered digital barriers constantly. Many of the
websites, mobile apps, PDFs and software programs he needed were not
accessible. Sometimes, they just didn’t work.
https://www.nytimes.com/2019/07/05/business/retirement-planning-disabled-deaf-blind.html
So Mr. Rizzi, 55, the founder of My Blind Spot, an accessibility
advocacy group in New York, filed a federal lawsuit in April 2018
against Morgan Stanley, the firm he uses to manage his personal
retirement accounts.

Mr. Rizzi’s suit accused the bank of violating the Americans With
Disabilities Act by “denying access to its websites to individuals
with disabilities who are visually impaired” and who require
screen-reader software to access digital content. Mr. Rizzi also cited
the bank for not having an accessibility website or hotline. The case,
which sought about $9 million in damages, was settled last summer, his
lawyer, Lambros Lambrou, said.

In a separate case, Wells Fargo in 2011 settled an investigation by
the Justice Department alleging A.D.A. violations because the bank
failed to accept what is known as video relay services, or video phone
calls, from deaf customers. The settlement required the bank to pay
$16 million to some account holders and remedy a variety of
accessibility problems.

Despite the passage of the A.D.A., lawsuits and heightened awareness
of the needs of people with disabilities, obstacles to investing and
money management persist. The fix often requires reverse-engineering
software and procedures, which can be costly and time consuming. There
are signs that some financial services companies are rethinking their
approach to accessibility, but customers remain concerned.

“I am still struggling to read the statements from my brokerage
account, and am often left to rely on sighted assistance, which can
expose me to identity theft or worse,” Mr. Rizzi said. Recently, his
personal financial information was compromised. “There is significant
room for improvement across the board, and I have yet to, personally
or professionally, find that one institution that has it right.”

By many accounts, the pool of blind and deaf retirement investors is
small — not just because of accessibility problems but also because
those people face low wages, unemployment, underemployment and a lack
of financial literacy. The average annual earned income for an
American with a disability is $26,487 — 38 percent less than for
someone without a disability, according to a 2018 report by the
American Institutes for Research. The Labor Department reports that
only about 19 percent of people with a disability are employed,
compared with nearly 66 percent of people without a disability.

The low work force participation rate is “due to the high number of
people who see a better income from entitlements or the many who have
not seen success in landing a job and more or less have given up
trying,” said Chris Soukup, chief executive of Communication Service
for the Deaf. This makes it harder for them to save for retirement
through a job.

Knowing workers’ needs
Retirement planning, however, is still relevant for people with
disabilities, and some financial advisers have tailored their practice
to help people even if they have few assets.

Lee Kramer, the founder of Kramer Wealth Managers, is deaf and says
the mission of his firm is to “bridge the gap between the financial
world and the deaf community by providing comprehensive wealth
management services accessible in A.S.L.”

Mr. Kramer’s staff is fluent in American Sign Language and often use
videophones. Mr. Kramer said the firm’s clientele included 85 percent
deaf and 15 percent hearing customers, and unlike many firms, his does
not require a minimum investment from any of them. “We feel we have a
duty of service to the deaf community,” he said.

Among Kramer’s clients are the Deaf-Hearing Communication Center in
Swarthmore, Pa., and its 13 full-time employees.

“We don’t have to go through somebody to have a conversation about
what we need,” said Neil McDevitt, the executive director of the
nonprofit center, which provides sign language interpreting and
real-time captioning services. “So if I want to talk to Mr. Kramer, I
can call him on the videophone and we can have a conversation
directly.”

Even though certified interpreters are bound by confidentiality, some
people may feel uncomfortable sharing financial information through a
third party, and not every interpreter is equally versed in financial
terminology.

Mr. McDevitt, whose father was a financial planner, recalled many
conversations at his family’s dinner table about saving for the
future. Unfortunately, he said, many deaf children, especially those
with hearing parents, miss out on these vital talks. A Gallaudet
University survey found that the majority of deaf children are born to
hearing parents and that fewer than a quarter of families use sign
language 

[AI] Guardian Archive 1934: Call to train British guide dogs – archive, 8 October

2019-10-09 Thread avinash shahi
Delegates of the Manchester and Yorkshire branches of the National
Association of Blind Workers were welcomed on Saturday afternoon to
their conference in Manchester by the Lord Mayor, Alderman Joseph
Binns.
https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2019/oct/08/call-to-train-british-guide-dogs-archive-1934
One of the most interesting addresses was that by Mr. Musgrave
Frankland, secretary of the Liverpool branch of the National Institute
for the Blind, who spoke on “Guide dogs for the blind.”

Guide to survival
Mr. Frankland was the first blind person to use a guide dog in
England. Germany, he explained, had State schools for the training of
guide dogs; “L’oeil qui voit,” at Vevey, Switzerland, trained dogs for
France and Italy, and there was also a school in the United States.

Owing to quarantine difficulties dogs trained abroad could not be
imported into England, but the British Guide Dogs for the Blind
Training Committee had been formed to train dogs in this country. The
dogs, he said, were not trained in the ordinary way. It would be more
correct to say that they were educated.


A working life: the guide dog trainer

The Alsatian was the best dog in the world for the work. It was wrong
to make pets of them. It was only when they became pets that they did
savage things. Once it had been trained, a blind man could leave
everything to the dog. A guide dog could not distinguish between the
red and green lights of traffic signals, but that did not matter,
because the dog followed the movement of the traffic itself, which was
much more important.

The Rev. David Griffiths, who presided, spoke of the kindness of
sighted people to the blind, but he had one complaint which he made in
the form of a suggestion. “People tell you,” he said, “that there are
steps, but they do not tell you whether they are up or down.”
